Well, I'm very disappointed and chagrined to write about last night's so-called seminar on A Natural Approach to Treating Depression. It took all of six minutes and Dr. James S. Gordon provided the most simplistic information and no tips whatsoever.
Clearly the purpose was to sell books and as I wrote in yesterday's post, I already bought one, and began writing about it yesterday. But...to

Kate and I tried to watch Michael Moore’s new film, “Slacker Uprising,” last night. 10 minutes into the film we pressed the turn-off-the-movie-and-go-to-bed button on the remote.

And dadgummit, I agree.The question I'm left with now is what to do with this lingering disappointment. I
A decade ago, Nick Heidfeld was a McLaren Mercedes golden boy, rising up the ranks as he dominated on the Mercedes junior team. Everything indicated that he was being groomed to join McLaren to challenge Ferrari’s Michael Schumacher, a fellow German, for victories and the attention of fans.

Real Madrid president Ramon Calderon has shrugged off his failure to land Manchester United star Cristiano Ronaldo this summer, insisting he was satisfied with their market work.
Brevoort, one of Marvel's leading editors, put up a post on his blog in which he answers to correspondents questions. One person's query was about Brand New Day:

The one thing the British police have difficulties with it seems is the handling of social misfits within the context of murder inquiries.

I didn’t call him up either. It was his plan to meet; it was he who canceled it after arousing a thousand expectations in my mind.Where did he go? He has never done anything like this.

Well, if you feel that one and only story that has been holding its place in headlines of tinsel town for continuous three years, its Dasavatharam.

With the actor himself curiously waiting for release of the film, Producer V. Ravichandran and his brother Ramesh Babu of Oscar Films have been disappointing Kamal Haasan over for a long time. Right before couple of years, the movie was launched and Oscar Ravichandran had announced that Dasavatharam would be released along with Superstar Rajnikanth starrer Sivaji. However, there were no news about it later till Kamal Haasan himself started to talk openly about the film’ release. In a public gathering, he said, ‘Film

"We had about six chances to get it out," said Luongo after tonight's game. "Either we shot it off our own guys or we didn't get it out. Next thing you know, a shot from the point and Sakic's alone on the side.I was able to get the first save and he chipped it over me for the second one. It's unacceptable, inexcusable. That should never happen, especially in an important game like that."In such a tight game there was no room for error, and poor Ryan Kesler was going to pass the puck generously to a teammate in his own zone that could charge up the ice and put it into the open net. Unfortunately that was a turnover and the Avs put serious pressure on the Canucks in their zone for several seconds with time ticking down.

So, BlackBerry opens its first officially authorised store, and is it a magnificent glamorous flagship for the Blackberry name? Like hell it is! To be honest it looks more like a small town bank than a BlackBerry outlet, a freestanding little white building in Farmington Hills Michigan. However, the store isn't actually run by RIM, but it is a comprehensive BlackBerry haven with offers available from 4 US carriers. However people aren't just going to drive from state to state just to visit this place, that is not unless they tart it up somewhat and make it somewhere people actually want to visit.

Last night the unthinkable happened – The West Virginia Mountaineers lost to archrival Pitt in a game that was all but a guaranteed win. Most of us are still earliest stage of grief – denial. How could this happen???
This morning I changed my Sunday School lesson for my youth group, and...
So, I am cruising along for 4 wonderful days with no headache. Awesome!! What a strange sensation to feel normal. It was so beautiful I can't even put it into words. And then....came my periord and everything was ok for that day. Optimism was becoming the norm. Then I woke up the following morning with the dreaded evil thoughtless migrain. Mother b****es!!!! Why me??? It stayed with me through the entire Thanksgiving holiday. So, while my loves ones were enjoying each others company I was medicated and miserable.After Saturday I was ok, but the disappointment still lingers. My daily headaches have diminished and for that I am thankful. The botox really seems to have assisted with that. I now will be looking to see if altering my birthcontrol will assist. Keeping my fingers crossed again.
Before today's game away at Cheltenham I'd have taken a point. However, two-nil up with the clock running down you'd hope to see three points returned to Gresty Road. Sadly, the Alex let a vital win slip away. The point nudged us up the table, so it's not all doom and gloom. After the final whistle anyone tuned in to the results shows will have seen the draw for the FA Cup first round. Everyone I've spoken to was hoping for a non-league side away from home. Something to look forward to, a day out and the chance of a win. So MK Dons at home didn't quite put a smile on my face, although it's a game we can win on our own patch. You can't have everything! Thoughts on the draw?

It was a very tense match last night, I was on the edge of my seat all evening with my stomach in knots. How the players manage to deal with that feeling times 100 and still do the nation proud on the pitch is beyond me. And yet in the end South Africa proved to be too strong, running out winners at 15 points to 6.All credit to the Boks, they have had a storming tournament and really did deserve to take the Webb Ellis trophy home, but given that England had been written off early on in the tournament (including by me, I freely admit) it would have been quite the fairy tale to see the boys in white lifting the trophy. I do think that Cueto was robbed of a legitimate try, that he lifted his ankle before it hit the touch line and so touched down the ball before a piece of him hit the ground in touch. I also think he hadn't been given a chance in this tournament following his disasterous performance at full back against the US, but he should never have been put in that position in the
miWisdom today… The vast majority of people have a natural tendency to overestimate their time, work, energy, decisions and actions. This is known as the Jellybean principle, which is the act of being incapable of estimating correctly how many colored Jellybeans are in the jar.
Back in high school there was always someone organizing a Jellybean counting competition of some sorts each year. They would get hold of the largest glass jar or container they could find, and would “stuff” it with as many jellybeans as was humanly possible. Then, one-by-one each student would attempt to guess how many Jellybeans were enclosed within the jar. I was intrigued as to how students would go about estimating the number of Jellybeans that were in the jar.
Would they try to calculate it mathematically based on the size of each jellybean and the dimensions of the glass jar?
Would they just attempt to “guestimat

Toro Rosso are disappointed with the FIA Court of Appeal’s decision to uphold Tonio Liuzzi’s time penalty for overtaking Adrian Sutil under yellow flags. The 25 second time penalty cost the Italian driver eighth place in the Japanese Grand Prix. The Faenza-based team showed great promise at the Fuji Speedway only for Liuzzi to be docked his point. Team-mate Sebastian Vettel collided with Mark Webber while on for a possible podium to complete a miserable Sunday. And the team’s appeal against the Italian driver’s penalty was turned down in a Paris hearing on Saturday. “Obviously we are disappointed, but we accept the decision of the court,” Toro Rosso team boss Franz Tost told Autosport.

I've realized that blogging about topical drug or poison news is kinda fun, so here's another actual blog post. CBC News has reported that Health Canada (the Canadian FDA) just approved a phase 2 clinical trial (testing a drug in a small number of sick people to see if it helps them get better) to see if a compound called dichloroacetate (dichloroacetic acid, DCA) can help people with glioblastoma multiforme, an incurable variety of brain cancer that typically knocks people off within a year of diagnosis.DCA is a relatively simple chemical; It's essentially just vinegar (acetic acid) with a couple of chlorine atoms taking the place of hydrogen atoms. It is currently a generic (off patent) drug used to treat lactic acidosis, a potentially serious condition associated with a number of things including certain inherited mitochondrial diseases (e.g. MELAS), hypoglycemia (low blood sugar, a recurring issue with diabetes mellitus), severe malaria, and anything that results in a prolonged
Maybe I set my expectations too high or maybe I am too critical, but DigitalLife 2007 was completely underwhelming. Being new to NYC I expected the “ultimate consumer technology, gaming & entertainment event of the year” to be an amazing experience. Wow, was I wrong.
I was expecting flashy booths and displays from some of the top electronics companies, however this was not the case. The few major companies with exhibits were showcasing the same stale old technology they’ve been schlepping for a while. Major companies you would expect to be at a show of this type were completely absent or under-represented. As far as “technology” offerings goes, many of the companies represented were “B-Level” companies. The gaming side of the convention was horrible with the notable exception of the Namco and Guitar Hero 3 booths. Virtually no other game producers were on hand to showcase their latest offerings. Entertainment wise, what entertainm

(The video that I shot of tonight’s auction is at the bottom of this post.)
The Platinum Condominium auction has come and passed. The big talk of the town packed the house with auction participants, brokers, reporters and spectators. If tonight was any indication of what lies ahead, then the Miami condo market is in for a rude awakening. Miami condo developers are in for a sleepless night if word about tonight’s auction reaches them before bedtime.
It was apparent from the first round of bidding that the developer of Platinum Condominium had high expectations and high prices in mind tonight. Many people realized that the rules of the auction were quickly changed once the first round of bidding was over. A HUGE mistake on the part of the developer, if you ask me. The auction house, or maybe the developer, decided to start the auction with Group B. A colossal mistake in itself, in my opinion. Group B was comprised of 2 bedroom + den/2 bath condos; the best batch of
I'll admit, I like the old Romney, the one who turned the Salt Lake City Olympics around, and the one who carried out the only successful version of universal healthcare (on a small scale in Massachusetts as governer). Romney version 1.0 was my one hope for the Republican party in 2008.So who the heck is this Romney running for president? Suddenly he's a completely different politician, trying to appeal to the far right. In the process, he's earning the dreaded nickname that John Kerry earned in 2004, the "flip-flopper."Let's look at his history. When Bill Clinton came up with the "don't ask, don't tell" policy, Romney 1.0 described it in a letter to the Log Cabin Club of Massachusetts (a gay Republican organization) as, “the first in a number of steps that will ultimately lead to gays’ and lesbians' being able to serve openly and honestly in our nation’s military.” The same letter, sent during his failed Senate race, claimed that he would be a stronger advocate of gay r
Meg at Fried Okra has declared that September is New Jeans Month. She’s on the hunt for a new pair of jeans and is looking for some help.
I was going to write up a fun and informative post with pictures of my favorite pair of jeans. They are Levi’s 515 boot cut jeans and I love them. But I bought them 2 years ago. Last week I finally remembered where I bought them. This weekend I found myself at the mall and decided to head over to JC Penney to get another pair.
When I got to JC Penney I was so disappointed. I found the jeans but the material is different. My 2 year old pair is made with a nice stonewashed durable denim. The ones they had in the store were so thin! And made with a different blend of fabrics. I have a different pair of Levis that I bought last year which are made with the thin, new blend of denim. The newer denim tends to sort of wrinkle up and I find myself wanting to iron them. And there are places where the material is starting to wear thi
Tragic news today out of Seattle where Daily Gaming News learned that the last known living Sega Fanboy, Miles WELCOMETOTHENEXTLEVEL Prower (his name was legally changed in 1995 ed.) finally succumbed to a terminal case of disappointment and passed on to that great arcade in the sky.
Sega fanboys were once a common sight on the American consumer landscape. They were first discovered in the early 90s hanging around KB Toy Stores, and Toys R Us with their parents in tow buying up any Genesis related merchandise they could find. The species was particularly known for its viciously aggressive behavior around Nintendo fanboys, sparking what many experts agree was the first pathetic fanboy console war in recorded history.

Most have just kept their mouths shut.But, two, are enablers, who will exercise their marital privilege, etc, and allow the beating to go on.I am really fucking disappointed.I am very disappointed in t
I got the Lumiere eyeshadows in the mail today and I was so excited. I had ordered the Lumiere buffer brush and three sample eyeshadows. I even had a code, LOUIE (the code still works by the way), that I typed in to get 20% off my entire order. So in effect, I paid a little more than $2 for 3 sample shadows in little jars.Let's just start off by saying that in my world, all make-up is created equal, with none being more equal than the other. I don't care about the packaging, brand, etc. I just want good make-up. And I thought these Lumiere shadows would be amazing. I had a happy little tale planned out of how I would find my samples in the mail, try them out, be overwhelmed by the fantabulousness (I need a superlative here) of the shadows, and rave about it to all of you. Someone up there in the heavens made me dream this up just to shoot it down. Sick sense of humour they have by the way.The eyeshadows I had ordered are Graphite, Deep Waters, and Pink Satin. Graphite is a rich slate

I don't have pictures of asses or vaginas (Wow, the Google pervs will be coming out in droves after these last two posts) and I am deeply sorry. I do have some interesting fondling/groping pictures but the parties involved would not let me post them. Party poopers.
Now, lest you think from my last post physical impropriety is to Blogher what heavy petting was to Sodom and Gomorrah and

Day Watch was playing in the smallest, and most poorly ventilated, theater in Tucson. It’s also the only independent theater in town, so I like to support it. Before the lights went down, John and I got into a conversation about David Lynch and Alejandro Jodorowsky with a couple sitting across the aisle. They hadn’t seen or read Night Watch, but we assured them that it was amazing and Day Watch should be more of the same.
After the credits rolled, I wanted to apologize to them, but they sprinted down the stairs and were out of sight before we could catch up. They were surprisingly spry for middle aged people. (more…)

Everyone is disappointed at some point or another. And its even worse if you love the person and they you. Why are we disappointed? Obviously because we expect something more or different, and then don’t receive the wanted attention, or expected behavior. This might be due to a lack of communication or even just because the other person was selfish or inconsiderate.
Whatever the reason, it is more important to learn to deal with it. Not as a couple. But you, and I as individuals. Even if the other party doesn’t apologize or show regret. To remain emotionally healthy yourself, you need to forgive the person, and move on, right? Right… Its not always so easy.
It is very important to realize that we cannot hold other people responsible for what we feel. What you feel is up to you. If you were disappointed, you should review your expectations of the other person? Is it fair? Sometimes the other person was really at fault, but very often it was just a differen

When I heard that, the first thought that came to mind was my razorblade slicing through my flesh. i wanted to bleed the disappointment away. then i retreated into my well-armored shell. willing him to leave me. at least i realized he is Mr. wrong before things got too deep this time. I’m making progress. perhaps i am finally learning not to ignore those little red flags. instinct (if you let it, is a wonderful thing). It will tell you what you need to know. it’s that little voice in the back of your mind and then you know. I’ve been ignoring my instincts for far too long and that is why things get so messed up.
I really think there is something in the apartment. those orbs… my nightmares… (the nightmares are getting so bad i’m scared to sleep more than a few hours at a time because i don’t want to dream.) the sudden urges to hurt myself… (cutting, scratching, burning)… well at least the thoughts aren’t as bad as they were a month or so ago. when i constantly was tr
So, I hear about this new movie coming out in cinemas near me soon (if not already) So, as usual, I go looking for a link to watch the trailer for it. I open google, type in the movie name which happens to be The Devils Rejects and BINGO I find a link for it.I'm all happy by this point, so I sit and the page loads (slowly because of my dial-up). I see a trailer (which is weak in my opinion) and then the main site page loads up. I start looking around, playing with all the buttons because they've got different sounds and shit. This movie is by Rob Zombie and because of House Of 1000 Corpses...I can't wait to find out more.Imagine how I felt when I try to look through the site and find that I CAN'T. This movie has an R rating, so you have to be over 18 to view anything on the site. It asks me to fill out some details...name, date of birth, zip code.....I don't have a zip code with living in Scotland. We deal with postcodes here but I type it in anyway (you never know. I might have b
Oh, Virginia.You disappoint me. Just when it looked like you were getting over the redneck ass-backwards southern thing by electing two moderate Democratic governors back to back, and possibly even ousting George Allen, you have to go and overwhelmingly support an homophobic initiative that doesn't just prohibit gay marriage -- it prevents any type of civil union.Boy, was Gene Weingarten right this morning when he noted that you declared yourself the "state of sanctimonious bigotry." And to those Democrats and independents that supported the amendment but voted for Jim Webb: What are you thinking? You should be ashamed. Seriously.
The Member of Parliament (MP) of Jasin, Mohd Said Yusof admits that he is the sole proprietor of the forwarding agency, Binyu Sof Enterprise, which transported the consignment of imported sawn timber seized by the Malacca Customs. This gives a new twist to the controversy surrounding the dramatic resignation of Datuk Shahrir Samad as the chairman of the Backbenchers' Club in the parliament of Malaysia.It all started as a story carried on the Malaysia's English dairy, The New Straits Times, reporting that a MP was interfering with the operations of the Customs Office by telling the Director of Customs to "close one eye". Seeing the opportunity, the Leader of Opposition, Lim Kit Siang of the Democratic Action Party (DAP), brought the matter to the Parliament and moved that the said report carried in the NST to be referred to the Rights and Previllages Committee.On normal day this story will usually end here, the National Front (BN) MPs will simply vote it out treating it as just anothe
I watch the 2004 'King Arthur' film on DVD last night. I'd look forward to seeing it and been seduced by the trailers on TV. At the end I could barely believe that so much potential could be so dismally wasted. I've written a long comment on IMDB so I'm not going to say much here.Given a choice between a couple of hours of ironing or watching 'King Arthur' again I'd have to choose the ironing.Stellan Skarsgaard is the one redeeming feature - brilliant and menacing as the leader of the Saxons.(c) Hal Westhead 2005
Guess where the kids did not go today. At 50 degrees we once again cancelled the Disney Theme Parks trip. The kids are disappointed , I'm quite sure that they would want to go even if there was a blizzard over Florida. It's even to cold for them to play outside so they are instead spending the day getting on each others nerves. I suggested they all go read a good book but that was met with stares that translated to, what have you lost your mind. I even suggested that it was a good day to clean their bedrooms but they don't think so. Hey I gave them ideas on what to do with their day what more do they want. I certainly did order up this weather. I think we will try not telling them when they are going until the morning of the trip so we have no more disappointed kiddos.
