tiffany ukWith summer come so many of life's great pleasures: the warm sun on your back; scantily clad babes on the sidewalk; and perhaps best of all, the ability to woo your girl in fun and creative ways -- without breaking the bank. The possibilities are endless, but to help get you started, we give you our top six picks for summer lovin' on a shoestring budget. Date No. 1: Park It Here Whether it's your first date or your 50th, your local park is ground zero for easy and inexpensive outings. "On the first date, play Frisbee and go grab an ice cream. tiffany necklace white gold
That's enough time to figure out if you want to have a second date," says Arthur Malov, senior dating coach at NewYorkDatingCoach.com. Other options include taking a stroll in the park at sunset or renting paddleboats by day if your park has a lake or pond. Throw some bread in your pack for the ducks and score bonus points with your girl for being kind to animals. Date No. 2: Get Your Groove On Free concerts are a summer mainstay in most every American city and town. tiffany mens necklace
This is your chance to check out new sounds -- without the download fee. If it's a small show and the venue allows, bring a blanket and pack a picnic. If you're going to see a major artist for free (or a pittance), expect big crowds and forego the picnic. But do bring water for both of you to stay hydrated; she'll appreciate your thoughtfulness, and you'll appreciate her not passing out.
Date No. 3: Raise the Roof When the warm weather hits, restaurants with an outdoor roof deck are a brilliant way to wow your girl. A view equals romance in the minds of most women, even if the chow on offer is burgers and Buffalo wings. Skip the weekend crowds and go on a Tuesday: You and your sweetie will have the place to yourself. No roof restaurants in your hood? Check out patios overlooking a marina or a garden -- there's gotta be something worth looking at in your town! Date No. 4: Fairs and Fests Summer fairs and festivals are the ultimate date venue because there's so much to see and do, mostly for little or no money.
tiffany necklace silverBuy a pair of corndogs and check out the demolition derby. Win something for her from the arcade. (Hint: Nobody loses at the Duck Pond game.) Ride the Ferris wheel and kiss her when you're stuck at the top. You get the idea. Date No. 5: Set the Stage Nothing says you're a classy dude like Shakespeare, and almost all cities (and many towns) offer some kind of free or inexpensive theatre during the summer.
tiffany cufflinks Check your local paper for details, then prepare to bring out your smoothest moves. Pack a picnic of olives, bread and cheese to enjoy before the show (or during, if allowed). Check Wikipedia, and then impress her with insight into the play. Hate the theater? Usually the venue is outside, so pick a cloudy night -- if the show is cut short by rain, you get the culture points without the pain! Date No. 6: Life's a Beach Whether by bus, train, car or a bicycle-built-for-two, get yourself to a beach. It's the date with the best dollar-to-eye-candy ratio. Bring a blanket, Frisbee, chips and beverages. Offer to help put sunscreen on her back. The rest we'll leave up to you. tiffany charms

Lights out for the Green Lantern FIRSTLY: a superhero who carries a lantern around like a handbag is never going to be particularly intimidating, is he? Add to that the fact he has to recharge his ring like a cheap mobile phone and his part-time powers just come off a bit, dare I say it, wet.
Pandora Necklace Silver Secondly: while we’re on a film-bashing trajectory, ‘star’ of the show, Ryan Reynolds, does little to improve matters, indeed fulfilling the description made by someone far funnier than I, that he is in fact the human equivalent of low-fat spread. Bland, weak and more than a little dull. In fairness to Reynolds, who can’t be blamed for the fact that the Green Lantern story is the diet version of a fizzy drink, the final nail in an already half-buried coffin is the fact that the power bestowed upon our Superhero Lite is the unspeakably lame possession of ‘will’. Talk about positive thinking. pandora packages
Our superhero may as well sit at home swatting up on self-help books, learning the art of zen and chanting ‘if one believes he can save the world, one can’. The film, which recounts the DC Comics ‘silver age’ era of the Green Lantern series, sees Reynolds’ character, Hal Jordan, appointed to replace dying alien warrior, Abin Sur, who has been defeated by Parallax, a former Green Lantern guardian who has succumbed to the power of ‘fear’.
pandora sets Seeing himself unfit to take the role and duly told so by his mentor Sinestro, Hal quits and returns to Earth, although he is allowed to keep the power ring and lantern battery, so it wasn’t an entirely wasted journey into outer space. But with the help of love interest, Carol, (Blake Lively), Hal comes to terms with his self worth and realises until he accepts his own downfalls, namely his aversion to any sort of responsibility (a pre- requisite for the job, you’d imagine), his standard of crime-fighting is never going to be up to scratch. Pandora Charms Bracelets
Cheap Pandora JewelrySo, he looks inside himself and thinks really really really hard about his immature behaviour and lo and behold, he throws off his man-child cloak and saves the world. I did not see that coming. On a more positive note, the one decent line in the whole cheesy script comes from Lively, who asks the question which has burned in me like an irritating fire since I learnt to read comic books: “Why do you think I can’t recognise you just because I can’t see your cheek bones?” Quite! I’m all for suspension of disbelief but a strip of material across the eyes does not a mask make. Pandora Bracelet Charms
Sadly, while it did warm me to hear someone point out something I’ve wondered for years, it doesn’t negate the fact that against the slew of comic book classics currently setting the silver screen ablaze, Green Lantern is a weak tribute to far more exciting contemporaries. Pandora Jewelry
Girl, 8, killed by bomb she was carrying to Afghan police KABUL, Afghanistan — President Hamid Karzai on Sunday accused Pakistan of firing 470 rockets into two eastern Afghan provinces over the past three weeks, a deadly rain of artillery that Afghan officials said killed 36 people, including 12 children.
The attacks came in areas of Kunar and Nangarhar provinces where NATO forces have withdrawn, and where Pakistani Taliban moved in behind fleeing civilians, Afghan border officials said. In a chilling episode on Saturday, insurgents gave an 8-year-old Afghan girl a bomb concealed in a handbag and detonated it as she approached Afghan policemen in southern Afghanistan, killing her, Afghan authorities said. cheap tiffany and co
They said no one else was hurt in the attack, which took place in the Char Chino district of Uruzgan province. The insurgency has occasionally used children in its attacks, to avoid detection. The girl was killed on the same day that a suicide bomber blew up his sport utility vehicle at a health clinic in eastern Afghanistan while women and children lined up for maternity care and vaccinations. cheap tiffany and co jewelry
At least 35 were killed. The vehicle smashed through a wall at the Akbarkhail Public Medical Center before anyone could shoot the driver or blow out the tires, local officials said. The force of the blast caused the building to collapse. Survivors frantically dug through the rubble with shovels and bare hands. tiffany uk
At least 53 other people were wounded, said the provincial public health director, Dr. Mohammad Zaref Nayebkhail. The Taliban denied it was behind the bombing, which occurred in Azra district in Logar province. The Taliban claims it does not target civilians, but the movement is fractured and Saturday's attacks shared characteristics of other recent violence. Karzai, meanwhile, indicated Pakistani government forces are responsible for the bombardment, and "they should be stopped immediately." And "if they are not being carried out by Pakistan, Pakistan should make it clear who is behind the attacks," he said in a statement issued by the presidential palace.
tiffany uk shop NATO reported, meanwhile, that five service members were killed in at least three insurgent attacks in western, southern, and eastern Afghanistan on Sunday. The international coalition gave no other details. The deaths bring to at least 53 the number of NATO service members killed in June, and to more than 200 the number this year. Karzai said he discussed the rocket barrage with Pakistani President Asif Ali Zadari during an anti-terrorism conference in Tehran on Saturday, the same day the Afghan Defense Ministry spokesman spoke of the attacks and warned that Afghanistan would defend itself. tiffany necklace
"The government of Pakistan should understand that there will be a reaction for killing Afghan citizens," said spokesman Mohammad Zahir Azimi. In response to the Pakistani barrage, Afghan security forces in the eastern provinces of Khost and Paktika fired artillery across the border at least twice on Friday, Azimi said. Afghan security officials said NATO also fired into Pakistan on June 17. NATO and Pakistan military officials earlier denied any knowledge of such border fire from the Afghan side. The Afghan president said he also discussed the border attack with Afghan NATO commander Gen. tiffany mens necklace
David Petraeus and U.S. Ambassador Karl Eikenberry during his regular national security council meeting on Sunday. American and Afghan officials have pressured Pakistan to end its security forces' long-standing relationship with the Taliban movement, viewed as a tool for Pakistani influence over strategically placed Afghanistan. Such major artillery support for a Taliban operation, however, would be one of the most blatant recent examples of Pakistani support and bodes ill for the testy relationship among the three countries. Afghan border police spokesman Edris Mohmand, who reported 36 Afghans killed by the rockets, including 12 children, said 2,000 families have fled districts threatened by the barrage, including Asmar and Nangalam in Kunar, and Goshta district in Nangahar.
tiffany necklace silver "All these attacks have been from Pakistan's side and for sure they are Pakistani weapons being used against innocent Afghans," Mohmand said. "The border police in the eastern region have been equipped with heavy artillery but we are waiting for orders from the interior minister." NATO has recently withdrawn many of its combat troops from forward operating bases and combat outposts in Kunar and Nangarhar. Both provinces continue to be heavily contested by Taliban fighters. Spokesman Azimi said the Afghan Defense Ministry "asks the president of Pakistan to stop the artillery firing and compensate the losses caused. tiffany necklace white gold
" Violence has been on the rise across Afghanistan since the country's Taliban Islamists launched a spring offensive and promised retaliation for the death of al-Qaida leader Osama bin Laden in a U.S. raid in Pakistan on May 2.

Pandora Bangles8 Suspects in Custody for 5 Points Beating of 18-Year-Old Carter Strange Columbia, SC (WLTX) - Columbia police say they are questioning eight suspects in connection with the severe beating of an 18-year-old man in Five Points. Columbia Police Spokesperson Jennifer Timmons says the group turned themselves over to police Thursday night. She says seven of them are juveniles.
Pandora BraceletsJail records show one of the suspects, 19-year-old Tyheem Henrey, has been charged with assault, assault & battery by Mob, 2nd degree (Serious bodily injury results). Timmons says some of the suspects saw themselves in media coverage and decided to turn themselves in, and others were convinced to go to police by their parents. The group was wanted for the assault of 18-year-old Carter Strange early Monday morning. News 19's Nate Stewart sat down with Carter's parents, who said they can't understand why anyone would do something like that.
Pandora Bracelets SaleThe family gave News19 pictures, in which you can see what the 18-year-old now looks like. His parents say he was beaten, kicked, and left for dead. After he was jumped by eight suspects in Five Points, his parents knew something was up when he didn't make curfew. "A friend had texted him, and he stopped to text him back, and that's when they jumped him," said John Strange, his father. Sitting next to him, his wife Vicki tried to avoid reliving what happened.

"When you have eight people on one person, and they come up from behind you and hit you on the back of the head first, what do you do? Seriously? What do you do? He didn't have a chance!" Carter's parents say their son always follows the rules and is always home on time. "When I think of all of them on my son and the fact that they are probably laughing and getting amusement out of it, makes me livid. Absolutely livid. You try not to let people do that to you until the point you become who they are, but there's a part of me. Yeah, I could absolutely become who they are," said Vicki. A couple passing by spotted Carter lying in a parking lot.

"Honestly when I walked in, yeah it wasn't a pretty site. But I was relieved he was alive." Vicki said her son was unrecognizable. "That was my son. That was my son, but then it was like, 'That's my son!' Yeah, we've been looking for him for four hours. Yeah, we found him. Ok. We found him. Pandora Charms Sale
" Carter has broken bones in his face, a broken nose, and had to have emergency brain surgery to remove a blood clot in his head. "I said if this would have been a car wreck, I could deal with it easier. But I can't wrap my mind around eight people, beating someone almost to death for sport," said Vicki. His parents say the first step is getting him home and then having justice served. "They're criminals. Go ahead and get them off the street. It might save a life. Next time, they might kill somebody." Carter is expected to have surgery to repair his nose Friday morning. His parents say they hope to have him home early next week. Pandora Beads Charms
