How to get your ex back - Four Do Nots

Wednesday, November 5th, 2008

Immediately after breaking up is a problematic time for the future chances of any partnership. What you do in the following days and weeks might be the death or life of your relationship with your ex. Don’t allow your odds to drop because you are making mistakes. The following three negatives are to be avoided.

1. Don’t call your ex. Not calling is not nutty as if you telephone them you’ll push them away. Constant harassment by phone will not aid you at all to make up. A lot of phone calls every couple of seconds of the day will only push them further away. This is not something you need happening. They need to get time alone to think about your past. They will be thinking of the bad times and good times at this stage, however a load of calls will make them recall the worse times more vividly and they will think it is better to split up. This is not how to get your ex back.

2. Don’t be clingy. Not one thing hurts you greater than hanging onto your ex stating you need them. It would be difficult to make it worse. You are only going to damage your image if you appear to be demanding emotionally and not able to attend to your own feelings. You must attempt to seem [like as if] you’re okay with things. You want a perfect start and here it is. Your ex must have space and time to examine their own feelings so they won’t have room to help with yours too.

3. Don′t beg them to return. This would be a disaster just following a break-up. You need to keep it in mind not to go follow this path, however genuinely you feel, as there’s just negativity about it. It will cause more stress because you seem to have completely given up and will be a serious emotional burden for your partner in the future.

Is Bush “The Worst President Ever?”

Before Obama: How Bush Became “The Worst President Ever”
By Nico Isaac - Wed, 05 Nov 2008 19:45:00 ET

In the wake of Democratic senator Barack Obama’s historic rise to the ranks of United States President, it’s difficult not to acknowledge his predecessor George W. Bush’s precipitous fall from that very position.

Fact is, public opinion of Bush has undergone one of the most radical about faces in recent memory: From first-term “Cowboy” with the highest approval rating in the Gallup Poll’s entire 70-year history — TO — second-term whipping boy with a record-low approval rating of 27%.

In the words of one November 5, 2008 Wall Street Journal: “It seems no matter what Mr. Bush does, he is blamed for everything.” And, according to the experts, “W″ will undoubtedly go down in the book as the “Worst President Ever.”

Contrary to popular belief(s), according to socionomics – the new science of history and social prediction based on the Elliott Wave Principle – the REAL reason behind Bush’s fall from grace is not “policy” (say the leftists), “scapegoating″ (say the rightists), or a “breakdown of bipartisanship” (say the middle-ists). It is: A downturn in mass social mood, as reflected by the bear market decline in the Dow Jones Industrial Average.

Kelly Slater Heli-Surfing Massive G-Land

Wednesday, November 5th, 2008

If there was ever a time when the coolest surfer in the world is in his prime then this has to be it. Flying into Indo in a helicopter to surf huge G-land waves is just amazingly cool. Watch Kelly Slater slay giant G-land on SurferMag.com. Incredible! From the Association of Surfing Professionals web site, “There isn’t a surfer out there, past or present, whose sheer dominance is even close to that of Kelly Slater. Since cutting his teeth with old school veterans Tom Carroll, Martin Potter, Derek Ho and a host of others too numerous to list, the prodigious Slater walked away with his first ASP World Title in 1992 and quickly led surfing into the twenty-first century. He conquered the ‘90s and almost effortlessly placed six ASP world title trophies on his mantle (See Career for stats). After taking a brief sabbatical from touring (1999-2001), he dropped back into competition to face off against the new guard of competitors like Andy Irons, Mick Fanning and Joel Parkinson. Proving he hadn’t lost his touch, Slater stole crowns No. 7 and 8 in 2005 and 2006. After watching Australian Mick Fanning take the ASP World Title in 2007, an unstoppable Slater bitzed the start of the 2008 season, winning 5 out of the first 7 events and claiming ASP World Title No. 9 in Spain.” He’s awesome!
