Harry Sanborn: Some people consider rap poetry.
Erica Barry: C'mon, how many words can you rhyme with bitch?
Erica Barry: [after kissing Harry passionately for the first time] I'm... I'm sorry.
Harry: For what?
Erica Barry: I... I just kissed you.
Harry: No, honey. *I* kissed *you*.

Harry: For what?

Harry: No, honey. *I* kissed *you*.
Marin: Are you crying?
Erica Barry: Yeah. It's my new thing. I've gotten abnormally brilliant at it.
Marin: Why? What is it?
Erica Barry: I'm in love. Ain't it great? Seems like I gotta learn how to that... love-them-and-leave-them stuff, you know?
Marin: Oh mom, I hate this. Now do you get my theory about all this? You gotta self-protect.
Erica Barry: You don't really buy this stuff you say, do you? You don't actually think that you can outsmart getting hurt?
Marin: I think it's worth trying.
Erica Barry: Listen to me. You can't hide from love for the rest of your life because maybe it won't work out... maybe you'll become unglued? It's just not a way to live.
Marin: Are you telling me this is good? What's happened to you?
Erica Barry: I think you should consider the possibility that you and I are more alike than you realize. I let someone in, and I had the time of my life.
Marin: I've never had the time of my life.
Erica Barry: I know, baby. And I say this from the deepest part of my heart. What are you waiting for?

Erica Barry: What are you doing here, Harry?
Harry: Turns out the heartattack was easy to get over. You... were something else. I finally get it. I'm 63 years old... and I'm in love for the first time in my life.
Erica Barry: You know what, Harry. If it's all right with you, I'd like to be friends.
Harry Sanborn: Friends? I'm not ready to be your FRIEND!
Erica Barry: Fine, I understand.
Harry Sanborn: And anyway, do you really buy that horseshit that a man and a woman can be friends after they've had sex?
Erica Barry: I'm friends with my ex-husband but then again, we didn't just have sex.
Harry Sanborn: We didn't just have sex either.
Erica Barry: Then what was it? I'd love to know.
Harry Sanborn: Can I email it to ya when I figure it out?

Didn´t know ...
Nancy Meyers wrote the roles of Erica and Harry specifically for Diane Keaton and Jack Nicholson.
The title of the movie is from a 1954 song written by Johnny Mercer, namesake of Keanu Reeves' character Julian Mercer.
First (albeit brief) full frontal nudity scene for Diane Keaton. Although highly publicized as her first actual nude scene, in fact, she first appeared topless 26 years earlier in Hvor er Mr. Goodbar?.
The American poster for this film featured large pictures of Jack Nicholson and Diane Keaton. In Japan, the poster also included a large picture of Keanu Reeves, presumably because of his popularity there at the time.
DVD includes a deleted scene where Harry sings "La Vie En Rose" for Erica in a karaoke bar. Part of this scene (Harry and Erica dancing) was in one of the trailers. Jack Nicholson sings the same song during the end credits.

Now - see - I didn´t know the cast sang

Oh....and it wouldn´t be complete without theese
Melvin Udall: I've got a really great compliment for you, and it's true.
Carol Connelly: I'm so afraid you're about to say something awful.
Melvin Udall: Don't be pessimistic, it's not your style. Okay, here I go: Clearly, a mistake. I've got this, what - ailment? My doctor, a shrink that I used to go to all the time, he says that in fifty or sixty percent of the cases, a pill really helps. I *hate* pills, very dangerous thing, pills. Hate. I'm using the word "hate" here, about pills. Hate. My compliment is, that night when you came over and told me that you would never... all right, well, you were there, you know what you said. Well, my compliment to you is, the next morning, I started taking the pills.
Carol Connelly: I don't quite get how that's a compliment for me.
Melvin Udall: You make me want to be a better man.
Carol Connelly: ...That's maybe the best compliment of my life.
Melvin Udall: Well, maybe I overshot a little, because I was aiming at just enough to keep you from walking out.
Simon Bishop: You're why cavemen chiseled on walls.
Carol Connelly: When you first entered the restaurant, I thought you were handsome... and then, of course, you spoke
Melvin Udall: I might be the only person on the face of the earth that knows you're the greatest woman on earth. I might be the only one who appreciates how amazing you are in every single thing that you do, and how you are with Spencer, "Spence," and in every single thought that you have, and how you say what you mean, and how you almost always mean something that's all about being straight and good. I think most people miss that about you, and I watch them, wondering how they can watch you bring their food, and clear their tables and never get that they just met the greatest woman alive. And the fact that I get it makes me feel good, about me.

[shuts door]
Melvin Udall: *Help!*
Dr. Green: If you want to see me, you will not do this. You will make an appointment.

Receptionist: I can't resist! You usually move through here so quickly and I just have so many questions I want to ask you. You have no idea what your work means to me.
Melvin Udall: What does it mean to you?
Receptionist: [stands up] When somebody out there knows what it's like...
[place one hand on her forehead and the other over her heart]
Receptionist: ... to be in here.
Melvin Udall: Oh God, this is like a nightmare.
[Turns around and presses the elevator button multiple times]
Receptionist: Oh come on! Just a couple of questions. How hard is that?

From the soundtrack
One of the best movies EVER!!!!!
Melvin Udall: Never, never, interrupt me, okay? Not if there's a fire, not even if you hear the sound of a thud from my home and one week later there's a smell coming from there that can only be a decaying human body and you have to hold a hanky to your face because the stench is so thick that you think you're going to faint. Even then, don't come knocking. Or, if it's election night, and you're excited and you wanna celebrate because some fudgepacker that you date has been elected the first queer president of the United States and he's going to have you down to Camp David, and you want someone to share the moment with. Even then, don't knock. Not on this door. Not for ANY reason. Do you get me, sweetheart?
Simon Bishop: [clears his throat] Uhm, yes. It's not a... subtle point that you're making.
Melvin Udall: Okay then.
[Shuts door in Simon's face]
Are you Tweeting?
"What is Twitter and what can it be used for?
As I promised in my video blog on the Telecaster, Twitter and The Scientist, so come here a mini guide to Twitter.
Twitter is actually super simple, but nevertheless, it can be a little confusing to come in time. The concept is that people can follow each other, that is to say, if you e.g. follow me on Twitter, so will all my messages show up on your front page. I don't follow you or accept you (by default-protected Tweets feature, however, exists, but is not recommended), then you should not compare it with e.g. to be friends on Facebook.
You can even choose what you want to write about, as long as you keep it under 140 characters. Twitter is a social media, so if you want to achieve something with Twitter, so you should commit yourself, and have a dialogue with those who follow you, not just send a lot of information like a monologue.
Twitter can be a very good tool for networking, knowledge sharing (many links to their blog posts each time they write a new one) and to meeting new people, because a message can quickly be exposed to very many people."

Curl some of your vintage book pages or music sheets with scissors (just like you would ribbon) and place the curls into the glass ball.
Yeah, that's it.

Before publishing, you should also use the EpubCheck tool from Adobe to make sure that the markup in your ePUB file is valid after conversion.
Alternatively, you may use the free Calibre program to convert virtually any document format into ePUB in a batch. Calibre is available for Linux, Windows and Mac OS X. And for editing ePUB files, you should try Sigil – a WYSIWYG editor that also runs on Windows, Linux and Mac and support the.

How to Create ePub eBooks
If you want to publish your own books or blog in ePUB format, the easiest option is that you compose the text in Word (or Google Docs), save it as an RTF file and then you use Amazon’s Stanza program to convert that document into an ePUB ebook.Before publishing, you should also use the EpubCheck tool from Adobe to make sure that the markup in your ePUB file is valid after conversion.

Lulu.com
Lulu.com | Web | Upload and convert .doc, .docx, or PDF manuscripts to an ePub. Then choose a title, create a cover, describe your ePub, and pick a price. It's free to publish and sell. 1. Self-publishing is easy. Self-publishing a print book is easy. Self-publishing an e-book is even easier. Since this article is mainly about self-publishing an old-fashioned print book, here's the skinny on what it takes to put together such a book: You choose a size for your book, format your Word manuscript to fit that size, turn your Word doc into a PDF, create some cover art in Photoshop, turn that into a PDF, and upload it all to the self-publisher of your choice and get a book proof back within a couple of weeks (or sooner) if you succeeded in formatting everything correctly. You can then make changes and swap in new PDFs. After you officially publish your book, you can make changes to your cover and interior text by submitting new PDFs, though your book will go offline ("out of stock") for a week or two. Companies may charge a fee (around $25-$50) for uploading a new cover or new interior. |
I didn´t know what Sigil was
Sigil | Windows, GNU/Linux, Mac OS X | If you read the previous post you notice that they mention Sigil as a "needed" tool. I didn´t know what Sigil was. But it is free... Yes !! Free, Open source under GPLv3. Currently the only application that can also open and edit EPUB books, instead of just converting from other formats to EPUB. Does not currently support embedding video or audio in EPUB. |
After Writting the post
Sorry - out there- after writing the first post I realized that I didn´t mention the E-pub vs. PDF dilemma.
http://www.wikihow.com/Convert-a-Word-Document-to-Epub
If you read the link. You´ll see that both files work as in online readers of different sort. But that epub is the one that work with most. The link also mentioned Calibre with I have mentioned in the previous post.
To make epub get Calibre http://calibre-ebook.com/ You could then save the Word doc as rtf and import it into Calibre. Then you can convert it to epub. Sometimes I use Sygil to fix up the Chapter headings. http://code.google.com/p/sigil/
I am pretty sure Sygil will import html; so you instead you could save the doc as html in Word and then open in Sygil and save as epub.
EPUB (short for electronic publication; alternatively capitalized as ePub, ePUB, EPub, or epub, with "EPUB" preferred by the vendor) is a free and open e-book standard by the International Digital Publishing Forum (IDPF). Files have the extension .epub.
EPUB is designed for reflowable content, meaning that an EPUB reader can optimize text for a particular display device. EPUB also supports fixed-layout content. The format is intended as a single format that publishers and conversion houses can use in-house, as well as for distribution and sale. It supersedes the Open eBook standard.
I just added Wikis explanation of epub if you like me don´t know what epub is.
Here is an other explaination as to the difference

If you don’t have Ms Word 2007, you can ask for a friend of you who has one to use the “save as” function to convert word to PDF file. Usually the converted PDF file quality is gratified except for password setting feature.
For converting Word to ePub documents, I suggest you use a professional ePub Creator. Bcz it can help you to make a standard and fully ePub book publication. Apart from basic conversion from Word, PDF, image, text to ePub files, you can also design book cover and tile, layout, author, chapter…. Found here

Epub vs. PDF
Yesterday I spoke to someone who´s wife was a "real" author and had her books published (online and in print) by a "real" publisher. He recomended Indesign by Adobe. I am at the moment trying it out. He was NOT too keen on PDF because the finish product looked so much better with Indesign.
But here is the dilemma:
- PDF can be published quite simple. You create a word or openoffice document.(Remember that some feel Openoffice is far better at transferring hyperlinks and pictures then Word.) Then you make a save-as PDF.
- The finish product (if as in "How to Write and Publish your own eBook") looks ok - I think close to a "real" book. I didn´t feel or think "what a rip-off". But I did see his wifes ebook in Indesign and it is at least 5 steps above the PDFs and he said that on that IPod or Android all spacing would be lost in PDF but not in Indesign. So ...
- then you have to send your "product" somewhere.( Amazon or ???). I honestly don´t know where to go IF I want to have the "right" place to go.
Which has left me at "Square- one" again. I am more educated but any wiser.
Adobe Indesign |
Adobe InDesign | Windows, Mac OS X | Commercial license. Exports to EPUB format. Note that versions prior to 5.5 create EPUBs that require significant editing to pass ePubCheck or ePubPreFlight. Plan on using Sigil or studying Liz Castro's EPub Straight to the Point book if you want to make EPUBs using Indesign 5.0. |

Believe in .....
It's a prevailing component of many sport psychology theories. When an athlete experiences a loss it can naturally affect their confidence. Athletes are human just like everyone else. Confidence levels directly affect performance levels. So psychology methods are applied in coaching where you focus on what you can control. If a competing athlete feels that there are things they cannot control it negatively affects their confidence and heightens cognitive anxiety. There have been hundreds of studies on this. So after a defeat, especially a difficult one, the idea is too focus on all the things you can control and allocate no energy to focusing on things you cannot control. If you can't control it why waste energy thinking about it? So they focus on the things they can control. THEIR performance. You distance yourself mentally from what the other team did, and focus on things you did that hindered your performance. "We beat our selves" vs. "they beat us". Where did WE go wrong? and then focus on what can WE do to correct it. You can control what you do, you can't control what somewhat else does. The feeling of control allows for perceptions of command and confidence while being able to effectively focus on locating and addressing your own weaknesses.

My comment on "Driving music"
As I have entered a debat on "Driving Music" I made this entry to prove my point.
Free webpages vs. paid
Learning by the Net
As you know: I have one page at one.com and now one at wix.com
http://hjertebager.wix.com/thehistorictraveler#!home/mainPage
And
http://juhl-andersen.com/
And so far I am having problems at both sites. They have difficulties loading and publishing my sites. One.com has more options as to contructing the site. Wix has less problems when I want to edit. So it comes down to your taste or patience. If you don´t mind less options as to the construction I would go for Wix in a heartbeat. The time spend restarting or reloading one.com when you only want to change a letter or a word is beyond annoying. And the help-guys(???) is - well :) - not helpful.
As for construction of the pages - remember copyright- size of upload - have many textboxes (allows you to change bits of the text easy as to large text = hard)
