If you hang out with some of the people that I hang out with you will meet a number of odd people, but this was one of the oddest nights out I ever had. The kick off was when I was in the line at the club and there were these two guys in front of me who got into a fight over hair extensions. I am not even joking, although I would not have believed it if I had not heard. Both of this guys were really trying to make a style statement and they did not seem to care if people like me thought that it was really weird looking. In fact I suspect that this was the point or something. One of them was in fact wearing fake hair in addition to his own hair. I do not know what the point was or why this other guy wanted to talk to him about it, but he was not in the mood to discuss that matter and he just sucker punched the guy right in the face.

Of course I sort of used the distraction of the fight to get up further in the line. All of the other people were watching the fight and I got to the front of the line without making it too obvious, because I did not want to spend my night standing in a queue. I was supposed to meet a girl inside and it took me quite a long while to find her, but she was with another girl and it was not like they were very interested in me. It was obvious that a very large number of these people were doing more than drinking and I realized that I had been going to a rave. It was very odd indeed.

There is a telephone pole on the corner just down the street. It is close to the edge of the road. Big trucks turn there and hit that pole on a regular basis. The town says they have a plan to have it moved in about a year. The power lines on it do not serve our house. However, the cable TV line does. About every month or so like clockwork a truck will push that pole out of position or snap it off. The last time we lost TV service I went to http://satellite-direct-tv.com/directv-select-package.html to switch to DirecTV.

My wife and I were working and set a show to record on our cable DVR. While at work someone whacked the pole. The show did not record. Continue reading →

A couple of months ago I moved to Raleigh and started living temporarily in an apartment. I was looking for a place to live and I finally found something rather unexpected. It is a little thing that is kind of like a cottage and it would be unsuitable if it was not for the fact that I am working rather near by. That is because it is on a big reservoir about half an hour North of the City. The place is pretty nice, but quite small. It has wireless internet and satellite TV hooked up and it is included in the price. Of course this is like a guest house really. Continue reading →

When my boss asked me if I was interested in going back to school, I was not sure where the conversation was going. I had a Bachelor’s degree in business, and I knew that I didn’t need to have another major to do what I was already doing. That is when he told me about a program with a part time degree in singapore. He told me that one of the executives was going to be retiring within two years, and he wanted to mold me to be his replacement.

The board of directors would need to okay any promotion of that magnitude though, which is why he wanted me to go for my MBA. Continue reading →

I am in the process of moving into my first apartment, and I am kind of nervous about everything. It will be strange not living at home. However, my parents are rather insistent that I move out of their house, because they feel that I have lived there for too many years, and that I am becoming too dependent upon them. I do not know if that is the case, but I want to look up prices for reliant energy in pasadena, because I am going to be sub-leasing an apartment from a friend of mine, and I need to get the electricity switched over from their name, and put into my name. They want me to do that pretty soon, so that their name is not still on the bill, after the next billing cycle starts. As such, I only have a few days to get this matter taken care of.

My main issue, though, is that I am not going to be willing to stay with Reliant Energy, if I find a place that is offering their electricity at a cheaper rate. I do not know if it will be possible to find a cheaper rate, but I am sure going to look to see if there is. As I have already implied, the electricity is currently through Reliant Energy. I should call my parents, and ask them what electricity company they use. I know that they used to use this one company, but I am fairly sure that they switched to another provider within the last year. I can’t think of the name of the new company, and I am not sure that I ever knew it in the first place. I should probably just go ahead and give them a call, and then get back to looking up rates online.

My son is kind of disabled, but he wants to have his own place. It is going to be a burden, to allow him to live out of the house, but I understand his concerns, and I want to accommodate him as best as I can. He does not have an income right now, but he does get a check from the government. I have just found him an apartment that is relatively cheap, and now I am looking for texas energy companies in tell that have fairly low rates on their electricity. The lower the rates that are available, the better. I am trying to save as much money as possible, in this whole situation. I know that I am going to be paying for a significant amount of my son’s living expenses.

I intend for this to only be a short-term arrangement, maybe something that will last for a few years, but not much longer than that. Continue reading →

Jackie and I are going to have to hire a tree service in asheville nc it seems. The two of us were getting the property cleaned up after the storm and then we suddenly realized that we needed to get well away from this one place in the yard. She just happened to look up because a hawk cried out or something and that was when she realized that there was the entire top of a tree hung up in another tree. Of course I was confused and we spent a good bit of time trying to figure out where it had came from. Apparently it had snapped off and the rest of the tree was still standing. Continue reading →

I did an internal audit not that long ago, and I was surprised at the amount of money being used on advertising. It would not be so surprising if it had been working, but I did not notice a spike in our sales figures after any of the advertising blitzes. I wanted to continue advertising, but I wanted it to be good advertising. Otherwise, I am just throwing money out the window. When I started researching marketing and advertising tips, I came across quantum postcards for direct mail marketing.

We had never tried direct marketing this way before, but I knew we had nothing to lose. I looked at the site and was impressed with the variety that was on there. Continue reading →

2. OUT & WITHIN, exploration of life,art exhibition
   Event on 2013-12-30 11:00:00
   ‘out & within’
   e x p l o r a t i o n o f l i f e

   About the exhibition:
   Indulging in creativity is not only a passion for some artists but also is a way of discovering about human life and express through their creations. Promising artist Aniket Khupse & senior painter Satish Pimple go on a journey to explore and construe what human life is all about. Despite the age difference, they both seem to be sharing something in common – the zest to explore human life – and this exhibition is rendition of their discoveries from ‘out’ & ‘within’ life experiences.
   What is truly important and amazing is that they both present their works dealing with two fundamental aspects of life – one is metaphysical or realistic part and other is related to mind. Both are equally important attributes of human life. Whilst one facet is about dealing with outer, materialistic world, tackling various situations and moving ahead in life, other is about listening to your inner core, self-realization and contemplation.
   Listening to your mind dictates you to choose right path in your life and vise-a-versa, human mind grows and matures building upon real life experiences. Both aspects are correlated to each other and are incomplete without another.
   On achieving synergy between the two, a complete human being is created.
   Aniket Khupse:

   Aniket Khupse’s visuals can be read as intellectual and highly expressive anecdotes of human life.
   In his paintings, he treats canvas as a visual narrative where characters meet, tackle with various situations in life, react, learn from experiences, mature, grow and sail ahead in the journey of life.
   The proficient use of water colour in layers brings fluidity & depth to his compositions, constantly shuffling us between past & present. Khupse metaphorically uses various symbols to depict very sensitive qualities of human life, quite often as a subtle back-drop on his canvas.
   Apart from being a great visual treat of balanced compositions, colour harmony & textural quality, the personification created in his works facilitates very close dialogue to the viewers between them and his creations.

   Satish Pimple:

   Satish Pimple has been painting for nearly 40 years and his vast experience is evident in his ability to handle the canvas in an immensely captivating way.
   He manages to dive deep inside unfathomable inner mind where he reads imprints of emotions, memories, reactions and self-realization. His paintings are hence primarily abstract & sometimes semi abstract which portray a powerful & intense drama of on canvas. The abstract forms interact with each other in a harmony in his paintings. His bold patches & blobs of colours interweave and blur into each other to a varying degree and create a great sense of depth.
   He prolifically handles oil & acrylic making almost tangible textural patterns. One experiences a great amount of motion & force in his compositions taking you on this visual journey and at one point they become object of pure perceptual experience.

I have been overweight for most of my life, but I had never really felt fat. I was pretty active, and my doctor was happy with my lab work results every year. When I had my tests done last year though, it came back that I was borderline diabetic, and my doctor told me that I had to make changes in my life. He wanted me to go on a 1200 calorie a day meal plan, and I knew that would be hard on me because I love to eat. He gave me some bistro md coupon codes and told me to look online to see if it was something I’d be willing to try.

I had never heard of Bistro MD, but I knew my doctor would not recommend anything that he personally did not believe in himself. I went home and looked online so I could get information on it, and I was really surprised by what I saw. Continue reading →
