Debby's Most Wonderful Wedding Dress

I was given wedding invitation by my old friend, Debby. She was my ex-classmate in Senior High School. It has been more than fifteen years we do not see each other. I was so surprised to receive her invitation of wedding ceremony and wedding party. I came to her home earlier. I saw the preparation of the ceremony and party. It was arranged very well by the most experienced wedding planners and designers since Debby's father is wealthiest man in my small city. The ceremony was started punctually. Everybody was chatting and laughing when Debby came in elegantly with the most beautiful and rarest design of wedding dress I've ever seen. She looked very sexy and elegant in it. She smiled at us nicely and warmly. We were all very happy to see her. The blessing ran well and then continued by wedding party. Once again, we found Debby wrapped with very great wedding gown. The party was very merry and cheerful. The food and cakes were nicely and deliciously cooked by the most trained chefs. The wedding was prettily made as well. I can say that it is the greatest wedding moment I've ever seen. May God bless your life Debby. Have happy life Debby.

Things to look out for before Hiring a Criminal Defense Attorney

Well, for those who have been through the experience of hiring a Criminal Defense Attorney - you will surely agree with me that it is one of the most stressful and daunting tasks to ever do in the world and I feel it is the same from a Los Angeles Criminal Defense Attorney or hiring a Defense Attorney elsewhere in the world. Here are some simple things that you nee to really consider before hiring a Defense Attorney.

Defense Attorneys become our key backbone in skimming through the complex maze of the defense establishment and the courts. They are surely the ones who will wade us through the criminal justice system since in most countries the system is lightly tilted towards favoring the government establishment. This is exactly the reason why you will need to hire an expert criminal attorney who will be able to take head-on the prosecution and also will be able to literally tear apart their case into pieces easily.

Here are a few things that you need to look-out for before hiring a Defense Attorney:

• Whenever you are in search of a good criminal attorney - do get more information about how good he/she is and try to attain as much information as possible from the outside world about that attorney. This will surely reduce your stress on criminal charges later at least.
• Look out for articles in magazines and papers and also look out for books that have been written by the attorney. This will surely help you to gauge the actual competence level of your attorney in legal affairs.
• Find out how the attorney is considered among his/her peers and also find out his/her level within the attorney's associations.
• It is a very good idea to pay a visit to his/her website and also websites of the major and most renowned criminal defense associations to cross check the criminal attorney's name and also how he represented the cases. You can also verify how the attorney is affiliated and also regarded in the attorney's associations.
• One more very important task is to find out the number of outright acquittals that he/she has won.
• Last but not the least, do visit or call the law firm and also verify if they can provide you some sort of a free initial consultation so that you can very easily gauge the possibilities for their firm representing you in your court case.
  

Well, as you must be very well aware you are very much innocent until proven guilty but always be rest assured that it is not going to seem very easy to prove that point all by yourself in the complex law setup. It is always good to remember that you always have the rights and when you have hired a competent criminal attorney you can be rest assured that all of your rights will be fairly recognized and presented before the court of law.

Native Voices at the Autry is proud to kick off its Tenth Anniversary Season with the return of Marie Clements' Tombs of the Vanishing Indian. Marie's one-woman play, Urban Tattoo, was Native Voices' first production at the Autry (1999) and Tombs was the company's first commissioned play (2003). The play has received three workshops and staged readings with Native Voices (2004, 2005) as well as a recent workshop and reading this past February with Native Earth Performing Arts.

Tombs of the Vanishing Indian was inspired by Marie's visit to the Southwest Museum of the American Indian, an entity of the Autry National Center. That visit, coupled with stories of those who were sent to Los Angeles in the 1950s and the ways Indians are made to vanish in society gave rise to this powerfully compelling play. Tombs weaves together the stories of three sisters who, along with their mother, were made to relocate to LA from Oklahoma only to find themselves lost down three very different tunnels. We follow each of the women as they struggle with the choices they have to make and the choices that have been forced upon them.

September's presentation of Tombs is part of Native Voices' First Look Series which brings playwrights together with professional directors, dramaturgs, and actors for an eight-hour workshop and public presentation at the Autry. A chat with Marie, director Luis Alfaro, and the actors will follow the reading so you'll have a chance to offer your thoughts about the play. Details are below, admission is free, and we can't wait to see you there!

Bleah

I'm lying in bed now, having just woken up.

My poor blog looks so stupid with no updates I've decided to tell you all about my mediocre day yesterday.

First I woke up at 11am and the sun was blazing hot. Then I called my friend and yelled at him, "Omg let's go tanning!!!!"

My friend said ok, but he needs to go to the gym first. I said I'd meet him at his place at 1.30pm then.

Boiled potatoes to make mashed potatoes. Talked to shuyin on msn. Burnt potatoes. Whole house smelt like burnt potatoes. Hahahaha! I'm so descriptive. Ok fine, it smelt rancid.

Cut off the burnt parts. Mashed potatoes with some water (no milk at home), chunks of butter and a dollop of mayo. It's fab. I make fab mashed potatoes.

Mike came home for lunch.

Pumpkin pooped on the shoe rack. Got walloped and time-out-ed in her toilet. (Till later)

Packed potatoes in microwaveable rectangular plastic box and left for friend's place. Took a cab. Had the cleverness to call him before I reached to find out he is still ta pao-ing food at cineleisure.

I stopped the cab there (he stays in orchard, has own swimming pool!!), and he went to buy LJS while I bought the fake jap food from cine's basement.

Meanwhile, went to do do club (just beside food place) with the intentions to buy fake eyelashes, if they got nice ones.

I picked 4.

The price was $19.80!

I jumped and said, "Why so expensive??"

Woman said coz one packet is $4.95.

I said, "Oh you all increased the price, used to be $3.80."

Stupid woman said, "No, it has always been this price."

Retard to the max! I clearly remember it was $3.80 coz I must have bought at least 40 pairs of lashes from there! Always been $4.95 my ass!! Always been that price since she's been working there maybe!!

So I said, "I don't want it anymore."

The semi-evolved human said, "Huh, all of them?"

I answered in the affirmative.

She yelled, "But I already keyed them in!!" And acted like I have to do her a favour and pay up $19.80 just coz she already keyed my lashes in!!! Wtf??

It's not my problem that she keyed it in and I told her as much. Ridiculous.

Walked away. Nobody stopped me, although I'm sure they would be cursing me for the rest of the day.

With food, went to my friend's place, took off clothes (with bikini left of course) and AHHHHhhhhhh! Sun!! We had a decadent time eating at the pool.

Tanned till 5pm. I was a bit burnt.

Wongsie and mike then came over (asked Mike to release Pumpkin from Time-Out) and all 4 of us went to Jumbo seafood to eat.

We had drunken prawns, scallops wrapped in yam, mee goreng, spinach and mushroom tofu, and kang kong! It was not bad.

Then we adjoined to The Daily Scoop for ice cream, which was closed. Went to Udders instead. I had Strawberry Fields and Cempedak icecream!!

And then mike sent everyone home and we went home too.

I started reading My Sister's Keeper. It's promising. Finished to page 15.

Fell asleep till now.

And this is the first blog post written on my berry!!

All you need to know before Hosting Multiple Websites on a single Hosting Account

Nowadays we are increasingly seeing that the prices for registering a domain name and also for web hosting have moved steadily southward and have now reached a point where it's possible for you to host multiple websites without going broke. But if you are thinking of hosting multiple websites on a single hosting account, the information given below will be surely of a lot of help to decide on the different options that are on offer.

The very first check you need to do is to verify if the web hosting provider allows you to host multiple websites. Also, you need to personally decide if you want to host all the websites with the same web hosting company. There are a lot of web hosting companies nowadays that offer packages for you to set up multiple sites on a single account. BTW, setting up multiple sites on multiple accounts, one for each site is available with every provider.

Next, do a self analysis and see if you are satisfied and happy with the current web hosting provider you're using for your current website(s). This way using them again for another site you'll already know if they offer good service and support. Also, getting in touch with their relationship manager might help you get some additional discounts for considering to host multiple sites, that way your costs will become lower since you have considered to stick on with the current provider. But if you happen to choose a different web hosting provider you will be able to easily compare the quality of service and support offered by another company - which will let you decide on future plans of expansion. Also, if happen to ever run into problems with the new provider, you still have an alternative to switch back to your older provider. As the saying goes "put all your eggs in one basket" is not a very wise decision.

Well, there is yet another very good advantage of using a different Best Cheap Web Hosting is that you will get a different IP address for each of the websites that you host. If your websites are related to each other and you want to link them together at some point of time, having different IP addresses can at times help your website to rank much higher in the search engines ratings and page rank.

Hope this information was useful - do share your thoughts on this too.

More Rolling, now for men!

Advertorial

Remember my Loreal-Garnier Eye Roll-On advertorial? Now Biotherm came up with a product similar to that, but for guys!!

Tadah!

The Biotherm High Recharge Yeux!

Have no idea what Yeux means but it sure sounds all sciencey and like something that your eyes would love!

Eyebags and dark eye rings are unattractive for BOTH men and women, but the difference is that there are loads of products for women to help them with this problem!

I have like 5 different eye creams myself. -_-

But none for men - till now!

This little tube contains Pure Ginseng and Thermal Plankton among other ingredients to soothe tired eyes! It's an instant solution for men when it comes to erasing eye fatigue!

This little cold metal ball gives easy application... it dispenses a cool, clear gel which perks up and feels good against drowsy eyes.

Instant freshness!



Men are usually lazy when it comes to the maintenance of their appearances, but there are ways to "persuade" them to work harder.


How far would men go doing crazy, slightly gross, and very questionable home remedies on their eyes just because they are asked by a gorgeous girl?


Biotherm did a hilarious campaign just to find this out!

Check out these poor dudes:



I would never have believed it, but these guys allowed Jeanne, the "Eye-Fatigue Therapist", to put DURIANS on their eyes!!

I love durians perhaps more than most people, but I won't allow durians on my eyes lor!

And two whole durians (seeds, not the spiky fruit, duh, that would be so painful)?? So sticky... and worse, the smell will be ON YOUR FACE for the whole day!

Hahahaha...



My second favourite video is SALMON!

Would anyone really believe that putting a slab of really fishy-smelling raw salmon on your eyes would curb fatigue??

These guys try it anyway!!


If you are really sadistic and want to watch more guys getting duped, putting things like bittergourds, cheese and grass jelly on their eyes, CLICK HERE!


But at the end of the day, of course, only Biotherm's HIGH RECHARGE YEUX works.

As Takeshi Kaneshiro endorses with his royal handsomeness.


I put some on Mike...




Poor guy has been sleeping very little due to his heavy workload...


Me to Mike, "It's all yours... Stop being lazy and..."




Men should be trained to be more vain!!

Wooooo! Promotion!

To get a COMPLIMENTARY eye massage, skin consultation and free samples from Biotherm's consultants, all you have to do is:

p/s: You know who should really use this? J Lo's husband, Marc Anthony!




His eyebags/dark eye circles really makes him look like a combination of vulture and vampire.

*********************************

I often have nightmares about Mike.

The most common recurring one is about him generally just flying back to the USA and being totally uncontactable.

It's always night during those dreams and would involve me bombarding his phone but constantly typing in the wrong number!

When I finally get his number right, I'd either get

- An engaged tone. (WTF giving me hope)

- A message saying the phone number is no longer in use.

- An unhelpful helpdesk sorta person telling me Mike already left the country and his location is not to be revealed to me, which often results in me begging her.

- Mike himself picking up and telling me to stop bothering him, and I can never find him.



It's fucking horrible!!!!!

I presume I get these nightmares coz I'm still traumatized over the few alcoholic occasions when he went drinking with his colleagues and went uncontactable. HATE IT!

Anyway, yesterday I had the worst nightmare regarding Mike EVER.

It was so long and continuous and contained so much details I twittered 7 tweets about it.

Anyway, my followers on Twitter told me to go blog instead so here I am!

It started out with Mike going out with my family members on some trip.

Suddenly he collapsed to the ground. My uncles and cousins all tried to pick him up.

I was obviously damn worried he died so I kept shrieking at people to send him to the goddamn hospital. Everyone told me to relax, which pissed me off greatly.

For some reason we were in Ang Mo Kio and finally an ambulance from Ang Mo Kio hospital came and picked the still unconscious Mike into a green stretcher.

A female doctor in a surgical gown (green too, with green gloves) was operating on Mike as me and my family members looked on anxiously. Well I knew I was anxious, not sure about my dream family.

While on the operating table, there was an LED screen near to Mike and it was flashing red words. These were details about Mike. The words read "Mike, 28, DIVORCEE".

I know technically it should read "Divorced", but please don't correct my grammar in a dream.

Anyway, so it was revealed that Mike was freaking MARRIED before he met me!!!!!!!

Everyone was very shocked by this revelation and my family all gave me pitying looks.

I was like, "WHO IS THIS MIKE GUY? I don't know him at all!" in my mind but I was actually more concerned about his physical state!

Anyway, the doctor was damn curt and said Mike had a heart attack.


I woke up.

And fell back asleep again, continuing the dream.


Mike recovered and suddenly he was cheating on me with this girl called Vivian, who is a friend's friend that I just added on facebook. I haven't even seen Vivian in seriously like 8 years!!! And 8 years ago I maybe saw her like 3 times!!

WTF lor super ridiculous.

So anyway, this Vivian was at our new place and she and Mike were already together!

It was damn awkward.

For some reason Vivian was like watching me as I chose clothes to wear.

And I chose this white top and black skirt... Then I set the black skirt down as I wore the white top, and couldn't find the black skirt. Then I had to settle for a white with black polka dots skirt.

Anyway, the white top was MESH and the skirt was damn ugly so essentially I dressed really hideously in front of Vivian who scoffed at me!

And Mike gave her a loving look which obviously said, "See, she's so ugly, thank god I chose you!"

I then somehow suggested to Mike that I should "get the house" and he can move out, and he actually replied, "That's what you were hoping for, isn't it?"

Which is completely illogical coz the house is a rental.

And then my friends were there to support and comfort me. I didn't realise it during the dream, but I've fought with these friends in real life and are no longer in contact with them. Goddamn it, as if the dream wasn't bad enough already!

I started to actually physically fight him, and woke up at this point.


Sucks balls man.


Poor Mike (the real one) had to suffer 15 mins of my "Were you ever married?" questions.

DESCRIPTION OF AVAILABLE ROLES
INKY, male, Native or non-Native, early teens. A smart, lonely young teenager who spends much of his time out of school tending to his agoraphobic mother. He is quick, funny, and very sarcastic. He tends to be unkempt and messy. He is also unable to sleep, and afraid that he has witnessed a terrible crime from the fire escape of his apartment building, something that his mother denies.

SYLVIE, female, Native or non-Native, mid-to-late 40s. A middle-aged woman and Inky's mother. An agoraphobic, she has not left her apartment in over four years, and is constantly made more afraid by the deluge of sensationalized crime and violence reported on the local television news. She has frequent mood swings, rarely changes out of her moo-moos, and is unwilling to accept Inky's stories about the crime he may have witnessed. She lives in constant fear of something happening to her or to Inky.

LISA, female, Native, late 20s or early 30s. She is kind, compassionate, and perhaps a bit naïve about the students in her care at the local middle school, where she works as a guidance counselor. She tries to be professional in her appearance, and is careful in reaching out to Inky and Sylvie, who initially rebuff her. She is a parent of a mentally disabled young girl.

TUCKER, male, Native or non-Native, late 40s. He is a disciplinarian, and is often in physical pain, which makes him dark, sardonic, and bitter. He is the Vice-Principal of the school that Inky attends. He has a back injury that causes him to lean over. He is angry at Inky's trunancy, and determined to punish him. He views Lisa's methods as 'soft' and is openly dismissive of her.

FOR THIS AUDITION
- Please prepare a 2-min contemporary monologue

"Jennifer Aniston-The Bounty"

Jennifer Aniston's early exercise regime

Jennifer Aniston works out at 3am every day. The 40-year-old actress, who is currently filming 'The Bounty' in New York, wants to keep in shape despite her hectic schedule so gets up in the middle of the night to exercise. A source said: "Jennifer has had a totally overhaul for this film. She wants to be seriously fit, yet remain curvy. "There are a lot of early starts on set, so she has had to get up at 3am to get two hours in the gym before filming at 5am. She is supposed to be playing a 35 year old, and is concerned she won't look the part now she is 40. "It isn't just for

Butler's Bodyguard Wanted By Police

Gerard Butler's security guard on the set of new movie The Bounty is wanted by police after allegedly vandalising a paparazzo's car.

Bodyguard Chris Tsipouras, assigned to protect Butler while he's filming in New York, has reportedly clashed with snappers several times over the last few weeks as photographers scramble to get a shot of the 300 actor and his co-star - and rumoured girlfriend - Jennifer Aniston.

But tensions reached a high at the weekend when Tsipouras is said to have damaged the paintwork on snapper James Devaney's vehicle while it was parked in the Flatbush neighbourhood of Brooklyn.

Local residents witnessed the alleged crime and reported it to police - and Devaney is pleasantly surprised by the neighbourhood watch.

He tells the New York Post, "I was surprised that the community had my back. They saw a guy going up to my car with a key scraping the side."

Butler and Aniston have continually dismissed reports they are a couple after they were spotted walking along a beach arm-in-arm earlier this summer.

Butler's Dating Disasters

Gerard Butler once tried to impress a girl he was dating by smashing a glass on his head - but ended up bloodied and bruised as his bizarre party trick backfired.

The actor has recently had to fend off a series of reports he's dating his The Bounty co-star Jennifer Aniston and he has also been linked to actress Cameron Diaz.

But his romantic history has been marred with a series of disasters - including a woman who vomited on him and cutting his head open with a glass.

He says, "I've had some terrible dates. I had a girl throw up (vomit) once - I'm from Glasgow, people like to get smashed (drunk).

"I went on another date and I ended up getting so drunk that I smashed a glass on my head as a joke and didn't realise my head was bleeding. Those were my crazy days.

"I also went on a date once and at the end the girl went to the toilet, so I went to the toilet too but when she came out she thought I'd left and went. That was a pretty abrupt end to a date."

A Useful Study

Wanted to tweet this on Twitter but said website is down at the moment so here I am, blogging a short post!

All sorts of studies are done everyday. Many are thoroughly useless and stupid.

My friend just told me he has to watch over a few hundred hours of sneakily taken Hornbill videos to conclude how many hornbill moms eat their chicks. Or something like that.

He told me that he saw a mummy hornbill kill 3 of her 4 chicks, but honestly, knowing that sort of information does no one any good, except if you are a hornbill male and you wanna fuck but don't want babies.

But of course hornbill males have no idea how to calculate probability so this information is also useless to them.

Anyway, my point is that studies should be a bit more useful!

A very good one I can think of is:

What percentage of forgiven
cheating scumbags cheat again?

And I mean like after you forgive your boyfriend for cheating on you, would he just do it again?

Is it true, once a cheater, always a cheater?

Don't you think that's fucking useful information to know?

Say after polling 100,000 cheating scumbags, statistics prove that 99.99% of them cheat again, whether or not they were found out - will that affect your decision to take back a wayward boyfriend?

Or will you still naively believe that he is the 0.01%?

Other useful studies:

- Percentage of men who abuse women and promise never to do it again but does it again anyway.

- Percentage of men whose penises actually enlarged after using penis-enlargement kits (For you guys to stop having false hopes!)

- Percentage of people who think they are fat who are really fat. If this number is low enough, it would convince me, "Hey, I can't possibly be that 1%, right?

Therefore, I must not be fat." I realise this spirals into a logic blackhole (ie when I don't think I'd fat, I'd be part of the 99% who doesn't think I'm fat but actually is), but fuck off.

- Percentage of bad boys who become family men... eventually.

If this percentage is low enough, women will generally stop fucking bad boys in the hopes they reform, and bad boys will not get sex and then be forced to be good guys. This then ups the statistics so it's a vicious cycle. I'm rambling and I can't stop.

I admit that most of my requested statistics are skewed towards women's advantages, further alienating the already-tiny straight male portion of my blog readers.

Poof. Last 2 straight male readers gone.

It's inevitable they are dwindling. I refuse to place my jugs on the table and take subtle (but obvious, like, OH, ARE THEY SPILLING OUT? I HAD NO IDEA!) photos of them.


Oooooh!!!


REGRET statistics would be useful too:

- Percentage of people who regret going to college, and percentage of people who never went regretting not going.

- Percentage of people who regret having plastic surgery (If I knew this stat I'd be much more placated deciding on whether I should do my nose job.)

-Percentage of people who regret cheating. I really would love to know the answer for this...

Etc... You get the idea!

USEFUL STUDIES RIGHT??? Instead of stupid studies like whether iphone users are smarter and happier!

Regret studies are awesome. Imagine you wanna sign up for facebook.

First, you check the regret statistics for facebook sign-ups, because people who still don't have facebook probably would do something like that.

Say it's really low, at 5%. Everyone else is elated they joined. Would you join?


OMG!!!! I'd do the regret statistics and sell the good ones to advertisers!

All the companies will have new marketing campaigns!

ie. Coca-cola: "Open Happiness guaranteed at 90%!!***"

Macdonalds: "I'm lovin' it 86%!"

Nike: "91% of people just do it!"

Fancy like taking a risk? Try one of the high Regret Factor actions such as smearing feces on your face.

It's all awesome!


p/s: How many forgiven cheating scumbags cheat again? Let me know your personal experiences on this!

UPDATE: Don't know why I bother asking opinions when I don't believe girls who say their cheater boyfriends changed anyway.

I think they either didn't find out about further cheating, are lying to themselves, or that the boyfriend just HASN'T cheated (again) yet.

Is it very bad to scoff at such girls?

And a lot of you have cheated! Was it worth it, in your opinion? Would do it again if you had the chance to?

And no Mike didn't cheat on me.

A writing invitation...

From Jackie Goldfinger who served as one of our dramaturg's during the 2008 Playwrights Retreat:

Hello!

I am thrilled to be teaching a one-day playwriting workshop at UCSD on Saturday, August 29 from 10a.m. - 4p.m. If you know anyone who's interested in playwriting, or a playwright looking to sharpen their skills, please have them visit our website.

Although this workshop has a similar title to last year's class, it is different; this workshop will focus on writing exercises and practical writing tips. Playwrights will leave the workshop with a Tool Kit to write a new play or rewrite an existing piece.

Talk soon,
Jackie

If you're in the area and you can make this class, GO! It's highly recommended and Jackie's a great playwright/ dramaturg/ general all-around person to be around! Happy writing!

Now that's very interesting...

From Gary Garrison at The Loop:

I have a theory – not the least bit scientific – that if you calculate how long you’ve seriously been pursuing your craft in years, you can discover your artistic age and with that, your temperament for growth as an artist. So, let’s say, you’ve been writing for five years. It’s been my experience (especially with my playwriting students), that they have all the markings of a five-year old: struggling to understand that unwieldy body they’re in, wildly imaginative, precocious, energetic, daring, fierce, unafraid, questioning and at times, boldly defiant. Enter into your preening teens and you’re rebellious, tempestuous, a little arrogant, desperately searching for an identity (and a home away from home) and equal parts pessimistic and optimistic. If your artistic age is in the twenties, like I am, you’ve settled a bit into who you are – good or bad, right or wrong. You know what you like and what you don’t like; opinions are the order of the day. You definitely know what you’re willing to tolerate or not. You have a sense of the order of the world beyond you, and, that order makes sense to you.

So how old are you? And what does that say to you about your writing? Your career? Your artistic temperament? Want to grow up? Or do you want to grow out? It's never too late to have a happy childhood.

Search for any mobile number details online easily using Google PhoneBook effectively

Most of us love to Google about ourselves to keep a tab on what's going public about something our friends or even some unknown folks have written about us online, on chat boards or forums. What you must also know is that a large number of employers / prospective employers also consider this route to do some background checks on their employees before even considering some candidates for an interview on their premises. Well, these can be for good for many and also bad for a few - but nowadays many of us use online aliases to conceal or have a distinctive online identity. For example take my 'jsbi' well - I started out to use jsbi to abbreviate Jason S Bangalore India, now lot of you folks now the url of the website as jsbi. But did you know that you can use Google for even personal benefits, like looking up the phone number of your friend that you may have lost touch from a few years.

Yes it is possible with Google, nowadays it's like anything you want look up for it on Google - that's the kind of analogy!! But many folks who use Google daily too - or even every minute donot know about the Google Phonebook feature or even it's existence. The easiest way to search in Google is to use the regular search but that'll return you most likely a million records and sifting through all the junk it returns will take a few light years I suppose. On the contrary when you want to search for someone's name and phone number, you just have to put quotes around the name or phone number and search it helps narrow the results down to the minimum.

But if it is a phone number that you are searching, you'll need to know how to search for it on Google Phonebook. This is akin much more simpler and very easy than you need to do a regular search. All you have to do is type phonebook: in the search box followed by the name and then hit search. Eg. phonebook: Jason S. If Google has a match in it's vast database - it'll come out with all the results. But the only catch here is that it works on in US currently.

Well, but you can always use Google Phonebook to easily know who was trying to reach you whenever you get a phone call from some unknown number. Many a times we get phonecalls from numbers which we are not aware off and at these times you can easily search for it online and find out who it was really. You can also try this Phone book if you want to store the contact's details.

Regarding plans to expand the Autry National Center

From an e-mail message written by Native Voices Managing Diretor, David Burton.

I want to share with you the ... letter [below] from our CEO John Gray reflecting an important decision made yesterday by our Board of Trustees. The Trustees decided to end plans to expand our facilities in Griffith Park. As you will see from the letter, we are excited to refocus our energies on creating and delivering quality programming to our constituent communities. This includes Native Voices at the Autry. (And now that we are no longer expanding, I do not anticipate any interruptions performing in the Wells Fargo Theater.) We will undertake new plans to redesign our current exhibit galleries within the existing structure, as well as continue the work of saving the collections of the Southwest Museum of the American Indian and its historic building.

You can find additional information about this decision by visiting the Autry National Center web site at www.autrynationalcenter.org. Click on "Letter to Board of Referred Powers" and/or "Resolution."

Thank you for your ongoing support of Native Voices at the Autry, as well as the larger Autry mission. Please feel free to forward this to friends and colleagues if you feel it appropriate. And please feel free to contact me if you have any questions or concerns.

Best always, David
