Oscar Winner Karl Malden Dies 97

Author: Sami  /  Category: Passings

Karl Malden (born Mladen George Sekulovich, March 22, 1912 – July 1, 2009) has died from natural causes surrounded by his family at his home in the Brentwood division of Los Angeles, daughter Mila Doerner told the Los Angeles Times.  He changed his name from Mladen Sekulovich to Karl Malden at age 22.

Malden acquired perhaps his biggest popularity as Lt. Mike Stone in the 1970s TV program “The Streets of San Francisco,” in which Michael Douglas played the veteran detective’s junior partner.

In the ’70s, Malden gained a lucrative 21-year sideline and a place in pop culture with his “Don’t leave home without them” ads for American Express.

Malden won a supporting actor Oscar in 1951 for his role as Blanche DuBois’ naive suitor Mitch in “A Streetcar Named Desire” — a role he also played on Broadway.

Among Malden’s more than 50 film credits were: Baby Doll (1956), Fear Strikes Out (1957), Pollyanna (1960), Birdman of Alcatraz (1962), Gypsy (1962), How the West Was Won (1962), The Cincinnatti Kid (1965) and Patton, playing Gen. Omar Bradley opposite Oscar winner George C. Scott.

Malden and his wife, Mona, a fellow acting student at the Goodman, had one of Hollywood’s longest marriages, having celebrated their 70th anniversary in December.

Besides his wife, Malden is survived by daughters Mila and Cara, his sons-in-law, three granddaughters, and four great grandchildren.

RIP :(

How to Fold and Store Your Laundry the Right Way

Author: Sami  /  Category: Tuesday Tips

06How to Fold and Store Your Laundry the Right WayIt may seem like a no-brainer but you do absolutely have to fold your laundry when it comes out of the dryer. This is not only to keep your clothes looking nice but it also makes everyday living easier. Who wants to have to wade through a pile of clothes every day just to find something to wear? No, there’s no way around it, folding is a necessity and there is a right way and a wrong way to fold your laundry.

One of the places where people think they really do not need to fold is their sock drawer. Some people just throw all of their socks into the drawer and take out two matching socks every day. This may sound simple but it’s not really. Again, you’re rooting around in clothes just so you can get dressed for the day. Just about everyone knows that you fold socks by placing them side to side and then folding the top down and over. Once they have completed this process, many people just throw them into the drawer. This is also incorrect. After socks have been folded, they should be placed neatly in the drawer, lining up side by side. Not only does this give a nicer appearance, it also allows for socks and undergarments (which are also often kept in the same drawer) separate.

Just like socks, many people believe that not only do they not need to fold their undergarments but that undergarments can’t be folded. This is just not true. Men and women’s underwear alike can be folded in half and placed neatly in the drawer. Bras can be folded so that one cup sits inside the other and the straps then placed against each other and folded against the cups. This allows for one solid piece of clothing, and will prevent the straps getting tangled up with socks, underwear, and other garments that may be in the same drawer.

Shirts are generally hung up in a closet but there are some shirts that simply don’t need to be placed on hangers. These shirts should be laid flat on their front and the sleeves should be brought to the back of the shirt. The sleeves should be laying flat against the rest of the shirt. The shirt can then be folded in half or to save storage space, can also be folded in thirds by folding first the bottom up over the back of the shirt and then the top folded down over the bottom.

Heavy clothing such as sweaters should always be folded in the same way as shirts and stored on a shelf. Many people think that sweaters should be hung up but the fabric is just too heavy and you will result in the hanger embedding its shape into the shoulders of the sweater. To maintain freshness while they sit on the shelf, slip a fabric softener sheet between each sweater.

Depending on the pant, the two sides of the waistband should be folded so that they meet. Fold the pants in half once, and then fold them in half again. If the pants have pleats, gather the ends of the pleats at the bottom of the pants together and fold them this way the first time. Then fold them in half once, and then again.

Ed McMahon Dies 86

Author: Sami  /  Category: Passings

Finding Mr. Right

Author: Sami  /  Category: Tuesday Tips

Finding Mr. RightDid you know that 52% of all marriages tend to fail these days? That is according to the Office of National Statistics (UK). Well, with that kind of number there is no doubt that something is wrong with the couples. There is much more to getting this complete process right than just going on dates and getting married.

But that is what we are all ethnically conditioned to do. Nobody can instruct us how to find the right partner. Not a soul can give us a great example of how to go through the process. Most of the people you are acquainted with, who are with long term partners, just met up, fell in love and settled down together.

So, this piece of article isn’t just helping you how you can look for your Mr. Right, but it also about assisting you to avoid the opportunity of going through divorce or a big separation. It is surely one of the biggest motivations for me to write this article and I do hope that you find this article useful and get the man of your dreams.

The good thing is that you are not required any dating service to find your Mr. Right. These basic tips below will help you to find the right guy for you! Here are they:

First, you need to decide what kind of guy that you like, what kind of personality he must have, what characteristics he must acquire, what value in life that he must have, and how he looks in order to be sexually attractive. It sounds a bit detached when talking about future partner material, but it’s the truth. If you don’t know what your goal is, in whatever thing you do, you seriously spoil your chances of getting it.

Second, when finding love, you have to look for the person on the inside, not someone on the outside. In this world today, the center of attraction we focus too much is on physical appearance. For instance, Anthony from accounting with the old glasses might be your Mr. Right if you can get past the petty tendency to look only at physical appearance. We girls like to have all of it, and well, guys aren’t so good at giving it to us, but they mean well, and they try so hard.

Lastly, be sincere and open! Sincerity is the number one most important element in any relationship. And true, if you’re breaking off with a few of the men they might be wounded, but they would rather hurt for a day or two, than staying in a relationship that is based upon false emotions and hurt forever.

Finally, let’s kick off with the first plain exercise in order to stimulate you!

In a second I’m going to ask you to take a few moments to envision what it would be like to have found your Mr. Right. Imagine sharing your days with a man who is not only your best friend but also someone you intensely desire physically.

Can you image yourself with him right now? Can you picture being completely in love with one other, feeling a deep sense of association and belonging that feels really usual, knowing with total certainty that you both want to share the rest of your lives together as one?

What would that emotion be worth to you?

How to Clean Kid’s Bedrooms

Author: Sami  /  Category: Tuesday Tips

How to Clean Kid’s BedroomsKids are notoriously messy and their rooms can very quickly turn from a place of light play and rest to a disaster zone. Often, there are such big messes that you don’t know where to start. There are stickers everywhere, including the walls, and you might not even want to think about the bacteria in those stuffed animals that have been chewed on, stomped on, and thrown around, only to be left lying on the floor. Yes, cleaning a child’s room can seem like an overwhelming task but there are a few things that can be done to make the task a little more manageable.

When trying to remove a sticker, first peel off as much of the sticker as possible using your fingernails. Then turn on a blow dryer on the lowest heat setting it has. Move the blow dryer over the sticker, while trying to peel off the rest of the sticker at the same time. Ben Gay ointment, WD-40, fingernail polish remover, rubbing alcohol, and peanut butter will all also work.

Cleaning stuffed animals can seem like a baffling task. But most of them can be cleaned in the washing machine. First place them in a pillow case and then tie the top so that it will remain tied up in the washer. If a cuddly has a seam that is torn, do not place it in the washing machine as this can ruin the stuffing inside. Animals that also make sounds should also not be placed in the washing machine or dryer as this will most likely ruin the mechanics of the stuffed animal. For these types of stuffed animals, simply wash soiled areas with a soapy wash cloth and then rinse. If a doll or animal has plastic parts, such as hands or a face, these can be placed in a washing machine but should not be placed in the dryer.

Another way to clean stuffed animals is to place them all in the freezer. This will kill any of the bacteria on them. Then place them all in the dryer to shake off the bacteria that was just killed.

One way to keep a child’s room very tidy is to put half of their toys in storage. Most kids have too many toys anyway and this way, they won’t get bored with them and their room will be cleaner as well! Choose containers to put toys away in and make it a craft project for the whole family that everyone decorates one storage bin. Then label them with things such as, “Mr. Potato Head,”  “Legos,” and “Doll clothes.” This will encourage children to put their toys away in the beautiful boxes they have created!

You can also place hooks and pegs around the room for items that can be hung. These can be used for bags to store things in, or for clothes. Also place bookshelves wherever you can in a child’s room. These can be great homes for toys and it will save the floor from being constantly littered with playthings.
