OK, I didn't pick the best photo :p, but still...

I don’t get the :inlove: for that actor. To me he looks pouty and moody. Those are the things I don’t like in a man — or a woman for that matter. Plus, as an actor he has only the one facial expression. He makes the character so boring. I contrast that with Peter Dinkiage, who I think has a really handsome face, and he is a good actor too. The actor who plays Rob is better looking, but also, not that much as an actor. I think the girl who plays Arya is really good though. Love her.

In more important news, “Say Yes to the Dress” has started a new season.

Maybe the carriage ride was eventful, with the smell from the horses and her being pregnant. :unsure:

Just days after our reader Anastasia suggested a WTA Players and their Boyfriends/Husbands series, we already have a good reason to launch it - two years into their relationship, women's tennis player Karolina Sprem and ATP star Marcos Baghdatis decided to tie the knot this weekend in the bride's native Croatia.

In a splendid setting of a Trakoscan Castle, the 27-year-olds married in a small chapel next to the castle, while during the wedding they were changing sites in a carriage, using umbrellas to hide from the paparazzi.

The bride looked beautiful in a pearl-adorned wedding dress, wearing her hair down with romantic curls accessorized by a pearl headband.

It's amazing how undercover this relationship was, even though they are both tennis players, isn't it? Think of Wozzilroy!

You gotta catch up, Evita!

How did your nephew do at the bmx competition? What happened with the bike?

We tried to watch the first episode of that Game of Thrones... But pffff really not our thing, well I've never been into the Lord of the Rings kind of stuff...

I think I even made it to the second episode but maybe not, it was a long time ago already. I didn't enjoy it much :shrug:

star, the boys had one competition on Saturday and one on Sunday (on the same track). On Saturday, only the younger twin participated and he got second place. He could have been first but he missed the start signal and started a bit later than others. On Sunday, they both participated, the older twin was 2nd and the younger one was 3rd. I don't know the details of how the bike was returned but I suppose the parents didn't have much choice because the kids are staying with their other grandma this week and she lives 3 hours away from here so they had to either give the bike back on Sunday or keep it until next Sunday. On top of that, there's another competition on this weekend and it takes place right where their grandma lives so they have a whole week to practice on that track, their dad already arranged it with a local instructor. He's very serious about this BMX thing, he plans to maybe participate in the European tour next year if they can find enough money (and if the boys have a good enough level by then).

In other news, I'm back at work and don't have much work to do. So forgive me for rambling on and on :lol: Oh yeah, and I got the news that I didn't get the job in the US, apparently many people applied so they had a lot to choose from. Oh well, I'm not surprised, I knew my only chance was if not enough people applied. I'm still glad I did it, at least I don't have to wonder about it.

Since we're trying to spam the hell out of this thread (:p), here's one more bit about my nephews. They already went to practice on the local track last night after finishing the competition (in a different part of Latvia) and spending 3 hours in a car :facepalm: I don't know where they get the energy :lol:

:inlove: I think Arya is a good little actress and her parts in the novels are my favourite. Jon's parts in the novels are some of my favourites too.

i like him:heart:but prefer his bro the one who is the king ...here the series is finish for now:( Yes, here the series is finished for now too. But I haven't watched the last three yet so I'm still catching up on them. I'm also reading the novels; I just finished the fourth novel. One more to go and then I have to wait like everyone else for the sixth novel.

I don’t get the :inlove: for that actor. To me he looks pouty and moody. Those are the things I don’t like in a man — or a woman for that matter. Plus, as an actor he has only the one facial expression. He makes the character so boring. I contrast that with Peter Dinkiage, who I think has a really handsome face, and he is a good actor too. The actor who plays Rob is better looking, but also, not that much as an actor. I think the girl who plays Arya is really good though. Love her. I agree that Peter Dinklage does a great job. Tyrion is such a fun character in so many ways. He's witty and wry but he can also be thoughtful.

We tried to watch the first episode of that Game of Thrones... But pffff really not our thing, well I've never been into the Lord of the Rings kind of stuff... Neither am I. Not at all. But I gave this a try because a friend really liked it and I got hooked pretty easily.

Those boys have enough energy to power all of Latvia. :p



Sansa> Arya imo.

You mean the actress is better or the character is better?

Jon in the book is more interesting than he is in the series — part of the reason is the way they changed things around in the series. Maybe they had to dumb things down for this actor.


Mel — I’ve started the 4th book too. It’s interesting to see how some key things have been changed in the series that make me wonder how they are going to manage some of the important scenes later on. Some of the characters seem to have a different slant in the book than they do in the series too.

I mean the character. The actresses are both quite good.

Yeah, Jon gets better in the book especially in Books 4 and 5. I am interested to see how the actor will manage the transition. :lol:

He will convey the complexities with his universal expression. :p

Isn't it confusing to do both the books and the TV show at the same time? Or - how do I put it - is it really worth it to do both?

Isn't it confusing to do both the books and the TV show at the same time? Or - how do I put it - is it really worth it to do both?

Well, worth it? :shrug:

I started the books because I had a big period of dead time, and needed something to fill the space. Also, since I only half pay attention to the series, and sometimes fast forward through parts, all the side characters seemed to blend. :p So, it’s not confusing, but it’s interesting to see where and how they changed things for the series. There are so many characters, I guess they had to simplify. But, some of it seems to be done just for the hell of it or to make it spicier or make the women seem more than they are in the books. I don’t want to spoil anything for people here who haven’t seen all of season two yet. In the books Jon and Rob are teenagers as is Daeneris. She was 15 when she gave birth, and probably that wouldn’t get past the censors.

Jon is boring :yawn:

Sansa> Arya imo.

You're going to have to elaborate Hema. Sansa is a gimp.

Negative. Sansa starts out a gimp. But her circumstances force her to learn rapidly and she does that admirably well. I think her situation is more perilous in some ways than Arya's and I love the way she learns to lie through her teeth and never lets her guard down. Arya appears to be much more of a fighter/survivor but Sansa is no less- just in a different way and one which I have greater sympathy for. :p If you really want someone gimpy,it is Ned Stark and the Stark boys-Robb Stark being the biggest gimp of all. :D

mel:hug: Betty :hug: It seems you're not around as much as usual either. :awww:

You mean the actress is better or the character is better?

Jon in the book is more interesting than he is in the series — part of the reason is the way they changed things around in the series. Maybe they had to dumb things down for this actor.


Mel — I’ve started the 4th book too. It’s interesting to see how some key things have been changed in the series that make me wonder how they are going to manage some of the important scenes later on. Some of the characters seem to have a different slant in the book than they do in the series too. The fourth book is not as good as the third but I think it's because he introduces several new characters and we don't see some of our usual characters. The beginning of the fifth book says that he wrote so much for Book 4 that he had to split it into two. So Book 5, of which I've only read about 20 pages, is supposed to have some more of the original characters.

I always like the book version better than the TV/movie version and Game of Thrones is no exception. I like that season 1 stuck closely to the book. Season 2 has several changes. Some I like, some I don't. I agree that Jon is more interesting in the book than he is on TV but I think that's true of some of the others too.

I mean the character. The actresses are both quite good. Yes, both actresses are good, especially considering they're two of the younger ones, the two youngest main characters besides Bran, I think.

Isn't it confusing to do both the books and the TV show at the same time? Or - how do I put it - is it really worth it to do both? I think so. I think it adds another dimension. I like the books better, of course, but the show adds to my imagination of the locales and what characters look like.

I started the books because I had a big period of dead time, and needed something to fill the space. Also, since I only half pay attention to the series, and sometimes fast forward through parts, all the side characters seemed to blend. :p So, it’s not confusing, but it’s interesting to see where and how they changed things for the series. There are so many characters, I guess they had to simplify. But, some of it seems to be done just for the hell of it or to make it spicier or make the women seem more than they are in the books. I don’t want to spoil anything for people here who haven’t seen all of season two yet. In the books Jon and Rob are teenagers as is Daeneris. She was 15 when she gave birth, and probably that wouldn’t get past the censors. I definitely like that they've aged Jon, Robb and Daenarys on the show. That was definitely the right move.

You're going to have to elaborate Hema. Sansa is a gimp. No, she's not.

Negative. Sansa starts out a gimp. But her circumstances force her to learn rapidly and she does that admirably well. I think her situation is more perilous in some ways than Arya's and I love the way she learns to lie through her teeth and never lets her guard down. Arya appears to be much more of a fighter/survivor but Sansa is no less- just in a different way and one which I have greater sympathy for. :p If you really want someone gimpy,it is Ned Stark and the Stark boys-Robb Stark being the biggest gimp of all. :D I agree with this description of Sansa. At times at the beginning, you just want to yell at her to stop being so silly. But she smartens up fast and, although different from her sister, is successful. Even in the first book/season, there are hints that she's going to be okay, like in the scene with Joffrey and the Hound on the ledge after Ned's death. I still think Arya is awesome but I like Sansa.

I like the Jon Stark/Ivan Lendl "expressions" pictures. :lol:

MICHELLE MEYER: The Drought Isn't A Big Deal For The US Economy
http://www.businessinsider.com/michelle-meyer-impact-of-drought-on-economy-2012-7#ixzz215Tagiq7

The article focuses on the impact of higher crop prices. The potential of a huge catastrophy does not enter the realm of possibilities. Not to mention the fact that we mismanage our resources turning corn to ethanol and diverting water to natural gas fracking. Hopefull we will get lucky and it will only be a limited episode but there are certain multi-year calamitous droughts that have covered this area in the past.

My Rafa contribution:

Some good news for star in case she missed this.

“A few weeks ago,” writes Daily Mail reporter Mike Dickson of the Nadal-Federer-Djokovic relationship, “a very prominent figure in tennis’s global hierarchy was reflecting on the changing dynamic between the Big 3.”

“‘We’re in a phase,’” this figure said, “‘when Rafa and Novak take the opposite position on everything to Roger. And it’s not something you want to get caught in the middle of.’”

Andreea will also love that Rafa and Nole are back to becoming best friends.
