Saif Ali Khan Is Kareena Kapoor's Yoga Partner Now 2010

'Yin Yang Yoga' aka 'Partner Yoga' is a distinctive form of Yoga that fortifies rapport between the persons who partake in it. The fact was said to be told to Kareena Kapoor by her Yoga instructor Payal Gidwani. Accordingly, Kareena insisted to participate in Yoga along with Saif Ali Khan under the supervision of Payal Gidwani. Despite Saif's preference for gym to Yoga, he fixed for Partner Yoga in order to delight Kareena. As per the information the couple participates in Yoga for about an hour and a half daily. On the other hand, during outdoor shootings, the love birds do Yoga discretely and chat through phone. So, Yoga is the secret of Kareena Kapoor's slender figure.

Looking Ahead

Well how was that full moon for you? For me, I'm glad it is over. I felt burdened with more responsibility than normal. I longed for a sunny breezy week of summer I ended up with endless tasks, a tinge of loneliness and finding help only when I paid for it. Not what I consider a banner week but a perfectly lame full moon during a mercury retrograde. Glad that is fini.

This week we have disseminating and last quarter moon where we will have a Sun conjunct Mercury on Friday August 3 which should bring a slight a-hah moment (hate that expression but it fits) in the same vein when your mind thinks back upon something from the past with a new awareness. "Wait a minute, I think Dad was fired from his job in the 70's" We will get some insight on something that may be helpful or practical given Sun and Mercury are conjoining in Virgo. Of course since it is a retro mercury it will have a looking back feeling.


In terms of lunar aspects there is a Moon square Neptune on August 31 (2:39pm EDT) that will bring in something fuzzy or unclear. But it should not last long given a few hours later Uranus and Jupiter aspects will bring us something charming and unique

Review: Mockingjay by Suzanne Collins (Spoiler Free)

Title: Mockingjay (Book 3 in the Hunger Games Trilogy)
Author: Suzanne Collins
Genre: YA, Post-apocalyptic, romance, action
Perfect for: those who have read the series, starting with 'Hunger Games'.

NOTE: This review is spoiler-free. Comments on this should be spoiler-free, as well!

Katniss has been thrown into the Hunger Games twice now and each time has survived, mocking the governing power called The Capital. On the brink of war with the districts, the Capital doesn't like that one bit. No one is safe as the rebellion that was only just beginning in 'The Hunger Games' is now at full force in 'Mockingjay'.

Without going into spoiler-ville, let me just say that I loved this conclusion to the Hunger Games Trilogy. The whole series has been pretty dark and this book definitely followed suit. That being said, Collins ended this series perfectly. It is heartbreaking, gut wrenching, gasp making, and pretty much a whirlwind of a read.

'Mockingjay' starts off a bit slower than the other two novels, but rest assured, picks up quickly once it reaches part 2 of the story. Because the focus of 'Mockingjay' isn't just another Hunger Game, 'Mockingjay' has a lot of surprising turns and allows for plenty of character development, specifically in the case of past Hunger Games contestants and best friend Gale.

One of the best things about 'Mockingjay' is that Collins keeps everything real. Nothing is sugar-coated, all the way down to the hunger games impact on the psyche of the heroes we've grown to love. This is truly a story that people will remember.

'Mockingjay' is available online and in stores now!

Fantasy Cast: The Hunger Games

Back in 2009, movie production company Lionsgate bought the rights to a book called 'The Hunger Games' vowing to make a movie trilogy once the three book series was released. Now that all three books are out, they can get to making it.

Here's my fantasy cast for 'The Hunger Games'!!!

Paul Wesley (credits: Fallen, Vampire Diaries) as Gale:

I adore Paul Wesley.  He fell on my radar when he starred in the ABC Family mini-series 'Fallen'.  If you haven't seen it, check it out!!!  Anyway, he seems like a pretty perfect Gale.  Strong, manly, and hot.

Elle Fanning (credits: Because of Winn-Dixie, Astro Boy) as Prim:

Dekota Fanning is too old to play Prim, so the role has to go to her sister, Elle.  If she has even half the talent of her famous sister, she should be able to pull at our heartstrings in the role of Prim!!!

Alex Pettyfer (credits: Alex Rider, Beastly) as Peeta:

I'll be honest here... I haven't seen this kid act yet.  He just really looks like Peeta and I think he'd match up pretty well to my Gale.

Robert Downey Jr.  (credits: Iron Man) as Haymitch:

The actor who plays Haymitch needs to have the ability to make us love him, even with his addiction to the bottle.  Robert Downey Jr. could totally do that.

James McAvoy (credits: Shameless, Penelope) as Cinna:

Oh, James McAvoy, how I love thee.  Really, he's talented and pretty.  Those are two things an actor playing Cinna needs to be!

And playing the title role of Katniss?  In my opinion, it should go to an unknown or at least relatively unknown actress.  Bring in someone we viewers won't associate with any other major roles; someone who the audience will really see as Katniss.  (Not in the crazy way Twilight fanatics see Kristin and Rob as Bella and Edward, but in a less obsessive sort of way!!  Sorry, Twi-hards, you have to admit, asking someone to 'bite' you or 'growl' at you at a signing is weird!) 

So there you have it-- my 'Hunger Games' movie cast.  Agree?  Disagree?  Let me know!  Remember, keep comments spoiler free!!!

Saan kaikesta ongelman

Tällä kertaa luvassa pelkkiä tylsiä asukuvia, try to live with that. Semmosta se on kun ei oo mitään hovikuvaajaa eikä jännää elämää. :--(

Viime viikon asuista yks, nro 1.

♥ paita: Allulta
♥ hame: GT
♥ laukku: Citymarket
♥ korvikset ja pinni: H&M

Toi valaistus tekee hirveen kalpeeks, en sentään ihan vielä oo menettäny kaikkee rusketustani. :D

Toinen asu viime viikolta, nro 2.

♥ mekko, ballerinat, pinni & rannekkeet: H&M
♥ laukku: Seppälä
♥ korvikset: Fiorella

Heräsin sunnuntain ja maanantain välisenä yönä siihen, että olin ihan jääkalikka mutta olo oli kuumeinen. Olinkin jo uumoillu että tulisin kipeeks, kun veli just sairasti enterorokon ja mulla oli monena päivänä koskenu päähän ja kurkkukin oli kipee. Sen kahen aikaan heräämisen jälkeen n nukkunu paljoo ollenkaan johonkin kuuteen asti, että oikein mukava yö ja silleen. Koko maanantai oli sitten suoranaista helvettiä, kuume vaihteli 38-39 välillä, enkä pystyny tekemään mitään muuta kun makaamaan sängyssä ja kattomaan Serranoo. Kaikkein varmiten tietää kuitenkin siitä että oon kipee, jos mulle ei maistu ruoka. :D Mun piti sillon pakottaa itteni syömään vesimelonia ja pinaattikeittoo. Voin kertoo että oli mun viimesten voimien takana käydä hakemassa alakerrasta sitä melonia, olin ihan kuollu sen jälkeen. Tiistaina oli onneks jo parempi olo ja ruokakin maistu. Harmi vaan että siitä asti kurkku on ollu kun kaktus, kaikkein eniten on sattunu suklaan syönti, mikä oli oikeesti tosi tuskallista myös henkisesti, kun teki hirveesti mieli mut sitte kurkku ei paljoo antanu periks. XD Niin ja olin siis ihan satavarma siitä että mullakin on se enterorokko kun oireet ja muut oli ihan asiaan kuuluvia, mutta koska keskiviikkonakaan ei ilmestyny rakkuloita niin totesin että selvisin ilmeisesti "pelkästään" jollain imusolmuketulehuksella tai sen tapasella. En vielä tiiä paraneeko tää kurkku tästä itestään, oon vaan syöny yskänkarkkeja ja varjellu kurkkua kaulahuivilla sisätiloissakin. En vaan jaksais käydä lääkärissä joka kuitenkin määräis antibiootit, blöö. :D Haha mikä sairaskertomus, mulle vaan on tosi harvinaista että oon kipee tai varsinkaan kuumeessa.
Ai niin ja sen taudin muuten peruuntu mun viime postauksessa mainihtemani street dance -tunti! Allu kävi siellä sitten itestään, mutta koko luokka oli ollu niin järkkyjä ja ilkeitä lissuja täynnä, että ei pahemmin houkuttelis tanssin kokeilu.. :D Ehotin jo että alotettais vaikka espanjan alkeiskurssi, mut sekään ei taida onnistua eräästä syystä, mistä kerroon heti kun saan lisätietoo. Oon ihan piukeena epätietosuudesta!

Torstaina eli eilen sain kuitenkin kammettua itteni takas kouluun, tämmöisessä asussa. Nro 3.

♥ onepiece: Lindex
♥ leggarit: GT
♥ neule, pipo, huivi & rannekoru: H&M
♥ laukku: äitin vanha

Tänään oltiin vielä levottomampia ja hervottomampia Allun kanssa kun yleensä. Vaikka eipä mua haitannu. :--) Pitkällä ruokatunnilla käytiin Allun luona mun mopolla (se se vasta naurut aina aiheuttaakin, kivaa säätöö XD), ja sain katsastaa Allun kirpparitavarat ennen niitten myyntiä. Eurolla lähti mukaan musta lörttöpipo ja pääkallohuivi, kuvaa joskus myöhemmin. :) Damn jos ois tienny tuon, niin en ois ottanu H&M:ltä tilattua pipoo.
Päivän asu, nro 4.

♥ toppi & panta: Seppälä
♥ neule, korvikset & rannekoru: H&M
♥ farkut: Jim&Jill
♥ korkkarit: DinSko
♥ helmet: äitin vanhat, ite lyhennetty

Olin melkeen jo unohtanu nää korkkarit, kun olivat ainoot jotka ei ollu esillä koko kesänä. Taisin valita nää jokskuks lahjaks suunnilleen kasiluokalla. Periaatteessa ihan kivat, mutta pronssihtavan värin takia tulee käytettyä tosi harvoin, joten taitavat lähtee myyntiin sitten joskus.

Mulla on taas koko viikonloppu töitä, ja huomenna ois joku kokouskin, apua. XD
Ai juma miten tylsä postaus tästä tuli, mutta aattelin että ois järkevintä nyt tulla postaamaan näitä asuja, kun niitä on jo koneelle kertyny. En kuitenkaan halua jättää niitä julkasemattakaan. Pahottelut siis kaikille niille jotka melkeen kuoli tylsyyteen.
Blaa.
Nyt nukkuu, etten nukaha kassalle.

Np: Lady Gaga - Monster

P.S. Oon ajautumassa tai no oon jo ajautunu karkkien ja muiden mässyjen kierteeseen. Fuuu-. Katotaan vaan niin oon ens kesänä 10kg painavampi, enkä pysty alottamaan lakkoo uuestaan enkä jaksa liikkuakaan kuten nytkään kauheen pitkään aikaan. ÄÄÄ VALI VALI.

Do you use a rating system for your reviews and if so, what is it and why?

I've thought about starting some sort of rating system here, but lack the computer graphic skills to get anything cool set up.  Right now, you can see a 1-5 star rating on my  Goodreads account for every book on here and more!

Eventually I'll set something up here...  But a new layout trumps ratings!

S.O.S Book of the Week

The S.O.S Book of the Week  is where I'll let you in on what new releases I'm looking forward to!  S.O.S comes from the term 'Strict on Sale'.  It's bookseller speak for a title that you can't sell before a specific date-- think Harry Potter.  While the books I have here may not be S.O.S titles specifically, they are all new!

While 'Mockingjay' would have been a great choice for this piece, I've already read it, so it doesn't fit the criteria.  Finished it in two sittings, though,  and loved it!  (I'll write a review for it later.  I'm still digesting it all!!!)

This weeks S.O.S. Book of the Week is:

'Monster High' by Lisi Harrison, release date September 7th, 2010, will be a first for me.  I've never read a 'Clique' novel, or any other 'Gossip Girl'-esc story for that matter. The reason I want to read this has all to do with the marketing, specifically the Monster High toy line.  You must have seen these dolls at a toy store near you by now.  Well, those dolls are the characters in this novel, minus the LA transfer student.

Taken from Goodreads:

They prefer to call themselves RADs, but some call them monsters. So far, the "monster" community has kept a low profile in Salem, Oregon, but this year two new girls enroll at Merston High School, and the town will never be the same.

Created just fifteen days ago, Frankie Stein is psyched to trade her father's lonely formaldehyde-smelling basement lab for parties and friends. But with a student body totally freaked out by rumors of monsters stalking the halls, Frankie finds that life in the "normi" world can be rough for a chic freak like her.

She thinks she finds a friend in fellow new student Melody Carver--but can a normi be trusted with her big secret?

Will I love this title?  I highly doubt it.  However, I'd love to enjoy this novel for what it is-- a fun, popcorny toy tie-in.  Of course, when I do finally read this, you all will the be the first to know how it goes!!!

For your enjoyment, here's a mini video based on the toyline!
