COFFEEIt's the unseasonably cold November of 2008 when I go to New York's Bowery Hotel. There's a young man sitting in the garden, wrapped in about nine black sweaters and wearing a wool hat, smoking cigarettes, sipping a latte the size of his head, and furiously making notes on a script in the bitter cold. I have read about teenage girls lighting themselves on fire in front of his hotel, but at the moment Robert Pattinson is warming his hands on a coffee cup.

Yes, it’s safe to say that most single people want to date and they want to do it right the first time around, especially when they have chosen a special someone from afar that they haven’t officially dated yet and truly wants a long term relationship with. Okay, you want to impress your so called future mate so you want to practice first on someone else.
Before you practice date you have to ask yourself some serious questions.

What happens when a parent acts like a child? We were at a private jumpy house party when my son came running over to me in hysterics— choking on his words and pointing in the direction of the blow-up slide he had been on. Before I could calm him down to figure out what happened, the grandfather of another partygoer came over to tell me that he had "chewed out" my 3-year-old because he had pushed the man's granddaughter on the bouncy stairs.

Last year was not the best for me. So I ended up weighing a bit more than I actually should have & oweing more than I should have! Pity party is over.
2010 may begin with a few doctor bills & some work finishing up some of the healing process, but I know I will make it.
My goals for the year are:
1- Be more positive & connecting with others more in a positive way.

To me, this is upsetting, I cannot even describe how I feel at the moment about this because I guess I was in complete shock when I found this on the Internet. Feel free to comment below. The Rape-aXe is an anti-rape condom that a woman would wear whenever she was feeling vulnerable.
The condom is latex and has a series of barbs inside it and when the attacker is about to commit vaginal-rape, the barbs would attach on to the attackers penis.

Picture it. It was years ago, I was in college and working full-time. We've all been there. I was TIRED! I slept in much too late. The sound of the alarm clock melting into my dream.
I did finally manage to awaken and I had NO time to get ready! I ran arond the house after a 2 minute sponge bath, pulled my hair back in a bun (take note, works when you don't have time!). With a toothbrush sticking out of my mouth, I was throwing dresses around like a Vera Wang behind the curtains at a premiere fashion show! Okay, Found a dress, zipped it up, pulled up my hose, slathered some lipgloss on, put on my shoes while walking without missing a step.
Running out the door I felt like an olympian running for the Gold! People were looking at me and smiling. Even though I was late, I 'had' to have coffee - okay Starbucks - won't take long - the barista I flirt with every morning knows my drink. I wait in line behind a well suited man with a newspaper who gave me a wink. The people sitting and relaxing at tables were smiling at me and another wink from another man.
I thought, Wow! I must look pretty good today and thought (maybe I spend too much time and put on too much make-up in the mornings typically). Okay, coffee, keep running. I passed a construction site and got a few whistles. Thinking to myself. Wow! (I really must be looking good today). I continue my run.
I think, I am already late, I may as well pick up a donut for myself and my boss to smooth over my being late. I rush into the bakery and order two maple glazed donuts. Off again!
As I run, I turn the corner and catch a glimpse of myself in a shop window. I stop, HALT! I step back and take a closer look at my reflection. THE BACK OF MY DRESS WAS TUCKED INTO MY PANTYHOSE!

TRINIDAD, Texas — It was Christmas Eve 1999, but John Joe Gray wasn't consumed with the holiday spirit. When the car in which he was a passenger was pulled over for speeding by two Texas state troopers near Palestine, in Anderson County, he was packing a loaded handgun in a shoulder holster. He had no permit for it.

Crime is a pandemic that is fast taking over the world. With the recession in the world's economy; fraud, corruption, theft, falsehood and violent crime is rampant. In realising that hurt people hurt others, one should understand that the chances of one becoming a victim of crime is no longer a mere possibility, but a reality.

The massacre at Fort Hood last week is the perfect apotheosis of the liberal victimology described in my book "Guilty: Liberal 'Victims' and Their Assault on America." According to witnesses, Maj. Nidal Malik Hasan entered a medical facility at Fort Hood, prayed briefly, then shouted "Allahu akbar" before he began gunning down American troops. Now I don't know which to be more afraid of: Muslims or government-run health care systems.
