just read a UN report saying that the floods in pakistan caused more damage than the sri-lanka tsunami, the 2008 earthquake, and the haiti earthquake combined

Spent a good part of the day working at a donation center set up outside one of the high end supermarkets in karachi.

(starting to see some good wear on the s-golds

The money collected would go to purchasing these ration kits, everything a family would need for the cost of 3000 rupees per kit (86.7rupees=1usd)

[dkatz]

^ Dude let us know if you have recommendations of an emergency-aid organization to donate to.

Went to a local culture/music festival,

Saw two dudes with televisions as heads:

Some young mime's

Saw a powertool-race, didn't compete however.

A really cool gipsy band

Played some dice at a friend's place

And returned homewards when it got light again

Secretary of State Hillary Clinton encouraged Americans to donate $10 to Pakistan flood relief by texting "SWAT" to 50555. Clinton said the funds would be used by the United Nations to provide food, water, medicine, tents and clothing to affected families.

-this is the easiest way and the article (below) has a list of other reputable agencies

http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2010/08/02/pakistan-flood-victims-ne_n_667303.html

in this article Oxfam is pretty good, also acumen fund bullet point is great to. My uncle works there and the company has a great reputation for effectively improving the lives of pakistanis living below the poverty line. If possible dont donate to a agency with political ties or it will end up in corrupt government officials pockets

[fardin]

well done khan!!

[beatle]

[shubharamani]

It's comical that we post frequently to this forum, when we don't vary our outfits much ! I'm basically all about jeans and Ts, with jackets/IH shirt jackets thrown into the mix for warmth. The Tee is hard to read but it says "Oakland Vintage". Here I am today :

What I'm wearing:

Oakland Ladies T from www.pure510.com

IH 301S from SESF (W28)

Sperry Topsiders (6N)

[k4727]

[-Z-]

[Guest I LOVE LFC]

Today Me, the jeans and my daughter went to see my Nan, like we do a couple of times a week. I'm very close to my Nan since my Mum and Dad worked a lot when I was young so she has basically brought me up, even buying me my first pair of Evisus at 15, haha.

So the day has finally come that she is moving out of the house I grew up in from a 2 year old. Even worse for her, she's been in this house for 50 years plus! I just hope she enjoys her new house (which is 30 minutes away rather than 5 minutes now) and she settles in fast.

Me Nan (83) and Shi (2) outside the happiest house I've ever been in.

Shi having her last walk up the garden

really sweet pictures.

[Farhad]

Cheer up M8. as long as she's healthy all is well

you're just gonna have to drive a bit further to see her is all.

[Guest I LOVE LFC]

Yea I know. Just the ease of seeing her whenever I wanted and not ever going to that house again is going to be strange.

The drive to see her at her new place won't bother me. An 80 mile round trip to work for the last 5 years has made me a robot driver, just suck them miles in like nothing, haha.

[smittybat]

It's always strange seeing the houses you grew up in years later. I've looked up 2 of the houses I lived in as a kid and they're nearly unrecognizable to me now.

^ Dude let us know if you have recommendations of an emergency-aid organization to donate to.

Also check out MercyCorps as well. They are based here in Portland. I know quite a few folks who work for them in a variety of capacities and can definitely vouch for their short term effectiveness and their long term vision in all the places they work.

(Sorry I don't have any photos, but I figured this is worthwhile.)

Graphic image, beware light hearted members.

[aho]

what was it?

[LandoCal126]

On Monday (8/16/10) I headed out to NJ to meet up with Vinneus, tvshooter, and his girl Sarah. All three of us got trimmed up by Vin...

After my cut, Vin wanted to show me some of the NJ landmarks so we hit up the Westfield Mall...

Damn, food in a cup from a kiosk in the mall... :confused:

Went into the J. Crew Men's Shop in the mall and spotted one of Rin's books...

Can't say I was impressed by the quality of the Indy's they were selling...

Crazy thunderstorm hit while we were inside...

Sat down to eat some Wetzel's Pretzels when all of a sudden I spotted the face of God from the imprint of my ass... Oh wait that is just TFH Arcs.

As we drove back into the city I was very tempted to make Vin stop at NJ's #1 landmark... Satin Dolls aka Bada Bing! or "The Bing"

More from the day before (Sunday) here:

Been having a good time out here because of all the good folks out here. Time to head back to Cali so I can Pack it all up for the return. Later NY!

[ninetynine]

Yo, not only is that mall 5 minutes from my house, but I was there during that rain storm too...

And my best friends brother is a bouncer at Satin Dolls.

You guys are on my turf man!

[Grim Ryan]

Had a couple of friends/bands play some sets in my basement. Had about 30 kids show up to hang out, all in all it was pretty fun.

My friend molly came over early and made a shit ton of popcorn, from left to right the bowls are basic and garlic, salt and butter, kettlecorn style with cane sugar, brown sugar and butter.

Cooked the way it should be, in a shit load of butter on a stove top.

My friend mat is moving out of his apartment and brought over all of the unfinished booze in his house. Him and I are both whiskey guys; Glenfiddich, Old Overhault, and Jim Beam

Bands and beer:

People from these bands and some more of our friends played:

Walking & Messing about in the neighborhood

and that's about it

have a great weekend everyone

[-Z-]

At the request of the Creator...i'll X post my daily exploits from the WT thread here as well

Began our afternoon here, little one in tow, looking for some stuff for the kitchen. Been in need of new knives as ours are 3 years old and not the finest quality (they're Japanese, but not very rugged and I want something that will endure a bit more abuse in the kitchen). So we went to wander Grand Ave. in our city of St. Paul. There's a great home kitchen shop, Cooks of Crocus Hill here, which supplies anything that the wealthy neighborhood it occupies could ever desire...

My wife hadn't bought any clothing for this upcoming season yet, and she wanted to check out some boutique shops along the Ave. first place we stopped was Karma, a pretty cool women's store with a small collection of local and midwest designers which are all reasonably priced, but not very good quality, didn't see anything of interest in there...

next we went to a spot called Hot Mama, which has a small maternity section (as the name implies). apparently the woman who owns the store had a terrible shopping experience at Nordstrom, while trying to shop with her young child (anybody who's a parent and reading this can agree I'm sure) and decided to open her own store complete with a children's play area, a maternity section, and really damn cool women's clothes. This is where all the thin, hot, young to mid aged married women in the affluent Summit Ave. neighborhood shop, yet the prices range from very affordable to quite spendy, a great job on the owner's part on bringing in product that caters to a wide range of wallets. the affordable side is what draws my wife, who found two great sweaters and a top for this fall. (I dissuaded her from buying a $200 pair of denim that wasn't ANYTHING special at all...told her to get a pair of Geisha's instead)

I was waiting for my wife to show me clothes when a woman noticed my camera and asked if I was a photographer, i went through my whole story about this and that, and turns out she was a 25 year veteran photojournalist from the Twin Cities, had a great conversation with her, and she complimented my wife on her "great boyfriend jeans, where are those from??" to which i got to tell the story of the 3001 world tour, what it was, how many places the pants have been, etc. She didn't really get it, but she thought it was really cool from a documentary perspective, which i appreciated.

the jeans,

my ugly mug

went to our friendly neighborhood J. Crew, they didn't have any of the F/W mens shit in stock yet, which pissed me off. and my wife didn't find anything great either, its a pretty small store...little S did find a hat she wanted,

and they had some bizarre literature,

Then we went to another cool women's shop, Picky Girl, which again disappointed, though they had a great dress that I may swing back over and pick up as a surprise for the wife!

this reminded me of the Nip / Tuck intro. for some reason...

Last shopping stop was a toy store for little S

[-Z-]

continued, X posted from the 3001 WT thread.

The kid in me saw the potential fun in this cool little train set....

She wanted a doll house...so we left with a Yo-Yo, I'm gonna teach her as she grows up.

On the way home we stopped at MY favorite Twin Cities ice cream shot Izzy's. I went to University around the corner from here, so i've been going here for the past 6 years. it is a great little place that has the most amazing rotating menu of flavors.

each time is a different visit. but today they did have my favorite combination, Soy Chocolate with Orange Sherbet...

H got some blueberry, and S got a strawberry kid cone

if we're up to it, we might be going to a great Lebanese restaurant which has belly dancing on Friday nights, which will kick ass....more later people.

[ninetynine]

Thanks -Z-, I think it'll be worth it in the long run
