Man dies when bluff collapses at San Diego beach
Thu Aug 21, 1:28 AM ET
A tourist from Nevada was killed Wednesday when a stretch of oceanside bluff at the Torrey Pines State Beach collapses, authorities said.
The 57-year-old, whose identity was not released, was at the beach with his brother and nephew when rocks the size of basketballs came down, officials said.
"He was just spending a day at the beach with his family," said Maurice Luque, spokesman for the San Diego Fire-Rescue Department. "He'd gone to the foot of the cliff to take off his shoes, and a small section of the bluffs just gave way and came down."
The section of collapsed cliff — about 30 feet wide — was several hundred feet below the Torrey Pines Golf Course, which hosted the U.S. Open in June.
The beach and parts of the bluff surrounding the collapse were closed.
Fellow was at the wrong place, at the wrong time.
ReplyDeleteConnecticut Sen. Joe Lieberman, the Heir Apparent of the GOP?

UPDATED:
Officials with John McCain's campaign made a series of conference calls Monday and Tuesday with supporters nationwide to say that Connecticut Sen. Joe Lieberman may be named as the Arizona senator's vice presidential running mate, immediately sparking a frenzied effort by some state Republican officials to come up with a strategy to head off such a move, The Washington Times has learned.
One of the concerned state GOP officials told The Washington Times that he talked with two "high-level" campaign officials who said "Lieberman is a very real possibility."
Mr. Lieberman is a former Democrat who was Al Gore's running mate in 2000. Now, he is an independent who caucuses with the Democrats in the Senate.
Mr. Lieberman, who is visiting the war-torn Republic of Georgia this week with Sen. Lindsey Graham, South Carolina Republican and McCain loyalist, will address the Republican National Convention in St. Paul on Sept. 1.
A McCain political associate said that did not rule out Mr. McCain naming Mr. Lieberman as his running mate. A campaign official confirmed privately that Mr. Lieberman is still a preferred choice for the vice presidential job and could be moved to the traditional third day speaking slot that running mate's traditionally get. The McCain campaign prohibits anyone in its camp from talking with the press about a potential vice presidential candidate.
You guys can all get behind Joe Lieberman, he's a real Republican.
ReplyDeleteDoesn't even carry the card.
He's not even a Republican in name only, but a Senate Democrat.
The GOP candidate in 2012, or the Democratic candidate, who's to know, now, what the future portends.
We're all a heartbeat away from eternity.
ReplyDeleteReminds me of when I was visiting my aunt,98, during her last weeks in the rest home, and the pastor dropped in.
Doctor X, a member of our church, a fairly young man, whole life ahead of him, great credit to the community, with a couple of sons, had gone out snowmobiling on a bright, cold, clear winter's day, in the mountains near here. No wind, pretty cold. He stopped for a minute, got off the snowmobile, and an old brittle tree fell on him, killing him right there.
How to explain such things I don't really know. My aunt died at 98 1/2, he died in his thirties, in the same year.
The evangelicals, all enthused by the showing at Saddlebreak Church, will be ticked off if it's Lieberman. I don't see what added strength he brings to the ticket. Romney might bring Michigan.
ReplyDeleteJoe is Maverick's buddy, bob.
ReplyDeleteHe trusts him.
That is what he brings to the table.
Saddleback Church, I knew that didn't sound right.
ReplyDeleteI don't mind Lieberman, but then I'm pro Israel.
The McCain campaign prohibits anyone in its camp from talking with the press about a potential vice presidential candidate.

Reporters have been comparing the two major vice presidential nominees and noticing their similarities. Dick Cheney and Joe Lieberman are both experienced, sober, dignified, free of Clintonian sex appeal. But the media coverage is oh so different. Dick Cheney is a conservative, and that's bad. Joe Lieberman is a conservative, and that's good.
... As a congressman, Dick Cheney's American Conservative Union rating was a 90. That, according to the media glossary, makes him "hard right," or "far right" or "surprisingly out of the mainstream."
As a senator, Joe Lieberman's American Conservative Union rating was almost the opposite: 19 percent. In the media's eyes this makes him a "moderate," a "centrist," and often even a "conservative" Democrat. A Time website headline called him "Middle-of-the-Road Joe." If a 19-percent conservative rating is the middle of the road, there's a really fat right lane on our political highway.
Look at the liberal Americans for Democratic Action ratings system. Lieberman earned a lifetime "Liberal Quotient" of 77, six points more liberal than Dick Gephardt. Question: Lieberman's a "conservative," does that make Gephardt "far right?" In 1999, Lieberman was assessed 95 percent from ADA, making him one of the Senate's eight most liberal Senators. That year he also received a fat zero in the ACU conservative ratings.
So how in blazes does Lieberman's lifetime conservative rating of 19 percent make him a "conservative Democrat?" A reading of the last few years of ideological ratings leads one to conclude that, in fact, there are no conservative Democrats in the Senate. ...
Take a look at some issues. Cheney supports the pro-life position, and because of that Bryant Gumbel reports, "Cheney's politics are of the hard-right variety. He's opposed to abortion and favors both capital punishment and school prayer."
Conversely, Lieberman is 100-percent pro-abortion -- pro-partial birth, pro-federal funding, the works. But Gumbel's colleague Steve Kroft announced from the anchor chair that "Lieberman is noted for his moderate voting record and high moral standards." If you're Forrest Sawyer on MSNBC, that voting record makes Lieberman "socially conservative."
If you are Forrest Sawyer or
John "Maverick" McCain.
“Lieberman’s a great pick for McCain if he doesn’t want to be president,” said Tony Perkins, a Christian conservative leader who is the president of the Family Research Council.
ReplyDeleteFellow social conservative leader Richard Land, the former director of the Southern Baptist Convention, called a possible Lieberman vice presidential pick "a catastrophe.”
“This would be the kind of thing that could destroy McCain’s campaign for the presidency,” added Don Devine, the vice chairman of the American Conservative Union. “McCain might like to do this in some deep recesses of his heart, but I can’t believe at the end of the day he would do it — and if he did, it would be disastrous. Lieberman is just too far out of any idea of conservatism. It’s just crazy idea.”
“Lieberman is an impossible vice presidential choice,” said Grover Norquist, a conservative anti-tax activist. “You don’t average out a guy who votes hard left on economic matters because he has enthusiasm for occupying Mesopotamia.”

ReplyDeleteObama's Psychological Blackmail Has Been Done Before in Brazil, with Success
Written by Olavo de Carvalho
Wednesday, 20 August 2008 17:50
Saint Barack of Assisi from Irony Shmirony site Besides listening to the national anthem with his hands over his genitals instead of over his heart, Barack Hussein Obama has adulterated the presidential seal so as to make it into one of his campaign logos, declared that the American flag is "a symbol of oppression," and, as a finishing stroke, removed the stars and stripes from the tail of his campaign jet, replacing them with the "O" that stands for. . . himself. More than plain and simple contempt, this attitude denotes a conscious effort at destroying the national symbols. This effort, in its turn, does not require symbolic interpretation: its meaning is self-evident.
It gives electoral expression to the cultural war that has been waged against the United States, from within and from abroad, ever since the sixties: the point is to erect, upon the rubble of patriotism and sovereignty, a new system of loyalties, based on the alliance between every anti-American, anti-Western, and anti-Christian hatred and the billionaire interests engrossed in the implementation of the world government.
The clearest token of this alliance are the candidate's sources of funding: radical and pro-terrorist groups, on the one side, and the globalist megafortunes plus the mainstream media in full, on the other. Hence the vigor of his campaign, which has four times as much money as his opponent's and - without any exaggeration - gets twenty or thirty times as much media coverage.
With this backup, he presumes not only to defy every convention but also to trample on the most elementary legal requirements: after withholding for months his birth certificate, he at last produced a manifestly spurious one (see http://web.israelinsider.com/Articles/Politics/12993.htm). The original document, which is still missing, is necessary to clear up an essential question: Is Obama an American citizen, or is he an alien and therefore ineligible?
The concealment and the subsequent fraud speak in favor of the latter hypothesis, but the steadfast enthusiasm of Obamaniacs, contrasting with their absolute lack of interest in clarifying this question, shows that they would rather demolish the American electoral system at one blow than allow Republicans to stay in power: the new system of loyalties is already in force, placing over national integrity the partisan ambitions of the Left.
With the same self-confident insolence, Obama's government plans run flagrantly counter to the will of the majority, without the candidate having to fear the loss of even a single vote. The nation wants gas prices down; Obama promises to send them up, by maintaining the ban on new oil drilling. America wants to see illegal immigrants depart; Obama promises not only to grant them amnesty but also to give them taxpayer-funded health care.
The nation wants fewer taxes; Obama promises to create a few more. If millions of American citizens who think and want the opposite of what Obama does have sworn to vote for Obama for president, it is not on account of what he promises, but in spite of his promising them even hell itself. The attraction of the hypnotic image is stronger than the cost-benefit analysis.
Obama's campaign is a work of precision psychological engineering, planned not to win over voters through rational persuasion, but to weaken, shock, and stupefy them to the point of making them accept every loss, every humiliation, every defeat, just in order not to contradict the assumed moral obligation to elect him, it being of little importance whether he actually is an enemy in disguise.
Here is what Obama is demanding - and obtaining - from voters: that they sacrifice everything to a fetish, that they do so to some extent consciously, sharing therefore the blame for the operation and becoming in advance unable to fight against it once it has been accomplished.
We have already seen this operation be carried out in Brazil, on the basis of the stereotypical image of the "worker president," Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva, against whose crimes and perfidies no one can raise an audible voice anymore, for everyone, dragged by the psychological blackmail, became an accomplice somehow in the rite of sacrifice before the altar of the idol.

2020.05.16酒店小姐的基本介紹跟工作內容如果妳沒有接觸過酒店這八大行業，【酒店經紀梁曉尊】我在酒店上班的日子相信包括妳在內，很多人對這行業的第一個想法一定是：「酒店裡面酒店小姐一定有S？一定是龍蛇混雜，裡面 八大行業是哪八種行業呢?的人都是黑社會吸毒！打架、暴力脅迫女生陪睡…」等等電視上看來的畫面。
ReplyDelete其實這跟【酒店經紀梁曉尊】所接觸的職場須知 【酒店PT 】酒店的實際情況有很大的出入。梁曉尊在酒店這行業已經有多年的經驗，到是從來沒有在如此黑暗的酒店工作過，或許妳聽人說到「酒店打工的小姐，如果客人看上了酒店小姐想帶小姐出去，公司就一定會強迫小姐出場！」而事實上就算是十幾年前的老酒店業也很少有這個情況更不用說當今Google資訊如此發達的年代，而且酒店小姐的來源幾乎掌控在酒店經紀人的情況下，如果有酒店以如此方法對小姐施以逼嚇之手段，一定會讓酒店經紀人對這家店嗤之以鼻，為了保護旗下小姐，沒有人會帶經紀小姐去那種店上班，酒店當然不會笨到為了一個小姐出場強迫小姐做她不想做的事而導致店方得罪酒店經紀人，沒有經紀人要帶小姐來這家酒店，導致這家酒店沒小姐來吸引客人，沒客人的結果就是關門大吉！
所以酒店小姐出場的方式皆是小姐的個人意願，客人想要帶小姐出場時，訪檯幹部都會問清楚客人要帶小姐去哪裡並告知小姐，只要小姐不想跟客人出去，酒店沒人能逼妳！有些酒店規定小姐出場只需陪客人到客人想去的地方，也不可能要求小姐跟客人出去就一定要S。
當然也會有小姐因為想賺取更多的收入，而跟客人私下交易自已接S，這就屬於小姐個人行為了。所以酒店小姐到酒店上班出場接S完全屬於小姐個人之行為，不必擔心說到酒店上班就一定要出場或接S的。
畢竟酒店是酒店，客人來酒店消費是要談生意、應酬、好友聚會高興一下！要的是喝酒微醺後忘記煩惱的感覺，如果他只是想解決生理問題，說真的大陸妹還比較便宜呢！！
如果妳要來酒店上班，梁曉尊是建議妳是要思考三點:
1．妳心理準備好到酒店上班了嗎？很多人誤信(也可能是自己騙自己帶著僥倖心態)網路/報紙上店家或酒店經紀人所刊登的廣告說：「免喝酒輕鬆月入數十萬…」。而事實上天底下沒有這麼好的事，如果真的免喝酒，輕輕鬆鬆就可以月入幾十萬，那我想要來酒店上班可能要抽籤決定妳有沒有這個福氣呢！！酒店經紀人也不用為了酒店一直缺小姐而努力應徵小姐的。再來是要說明一點，酒店雖說沒有這麼複雜，但是畢竟是客人來尋歡的地方，很多男人抱著花錢是大爺的心態竭盡所能在言語上汙辱妳、毛手毛腳，以灌妳喝酒為樂的客人也大有人在，這些都是酒店小姐工作上所需面對的，妳心理上做好準備了嗎？
2．有沒有找到真正專業又正派的酒店經紀人？雖然酒店這行已經透明化，不會讓妳上班時感覺像是被賣掉一樣，但是網路/報紙上偶爾還是出現有不肖酒店經紀人用毒品、放高利貸等等方式來控制小姐的新聞事件發生！所以妳有沒有找到一位正派的酒店經紀人是妳要入這行的一個重要起步！再來就是妳找的酒店經紀人有沒有足夠的酒店經驗及專業知識或者可以透過Google搜尋經紀人名稱是否有相關事業，這是妳尋找酒店經紀人有沒有能力幫妳處理事情的關鍵所在！如果妳的經紀人只會帶妳上下班、送飲料、幫妳領檯費，其它的一問三不知，就算是他人再好，我們還是要為了自己早日賺到錢脫離這行來著想，所以趕快換個經紀人吧！
3．了解自己適合哪種性質的酒店！基本上酒店可分為禮服店、便服店、制服店三種，其中的禮服跟便服都是不脫的，制服店才有在脫衣服跟秀舞。如果妳的條件不適合便服店就不要去制服店；明明是適合上便服店的條件，就不要硬要去制服店上班。
好好跟妳的酒店經紀人溝通，雖然便服店的尺度小，但是對於外貌身材是有一定的要求；而制服店雖然賺得比較多，但是妳也要尺度有到那。了解自己，明白酒店性質，跟酒店經紀人好好聊一下，妳才可以在酒店工作的這段時間裡如魚得水！。

ReplyDelete我在酒店上班的日子酒店上班安全最重要
酒店經紀梁小尊又要開講啦！許多來找我梁曉尊面試應徵工作的求職者，在詢問不敢來酒店上班-酒店打工的原因工作相關資訊時，常遺漏了最重要的事情，就是在酒店上班有那些是必須要注意的地方。相信有許多人在網路或報紙上求職時酒店上班-酒店兼職-兼差如何達成人生的第一桶金，常看到很多廣告內容都強調薪水有多少，卻忘了告訴想到酒店工作的各位，酒店這個環境有那些是要注意的，這裡我酒店經紀梁曉尊就提供一些相關安全資訊給大家。
酒店經紀教妳選擇酒店兼差不是一個複雜的工作環境？酒店工作內容與環境
就梁小尊長期觀察酒店這個環境，只要酒店內部裝潢明亮看起來乾淨整潔，這樣的酒店工作內容幾乎都是十分單純，穿著小禮服或是便服的方式坐檯，工作內容都是陪客人喝酒、唱歌、聊天以及做些桌面服務（整理桌面，保持清潔）這一方面的基本互動。很多玩的比較瘋的酒店內部裝潢普遍昏暗、陳舊及髒亂且常會飄有異味。如果您希望的工作內容相較單純些的話，可依照上述的方式做一個初步判斷。
酒店經紀梁曉尊教妳出場如何自保職場須知 【酒店PT 】
在我們這裡工作的公關面對出場問題有絕對選擇權。但單純出場陪客人去續攤或是約個小會是在所難免的，畢竟在酒店上班是要營造出與客人有如戀愛的感覺。當然公關都要先觀察客人在包廂與自已的互動，以及觀察客人酒後的行為，做為是否要跟客人出場的判斷。當然客人在詢問公關要不要出場的時候，公關必須詢問客人出場要去的地點，以及有無其他同行友人，最後要再與幹部回報與確認，如此才能大幅降低出場的危險。但難免有些客人說要出場的地點跟實際去的地點不同。例如：客人說要去吃消夜結果車子開到汽車旅館或是住家（私人場所），如果遇到這種狀況，在客人把車停靠在汽車旅館入口的時候，請直接當櫃檯小姐的面前先行下車，並直接回報店家行政與幹部，同時店家行政也會立即連絡酒店經紀人回報狀況，其餘的事情都交由公司處理即可。
