This poem is dedicated to the youth of this generation and the generation next. Someone once asked why there is a need for a high standard in doing things. The answer is because it is required of us by the Creator. If there is no high standard, there is no refinement and the work of art will not last. We had benefited from the beautiful creations of the people before us: beautiful buildings, beautiful paintings, exalted music, wonderful prose and poetry. As those artists exceeded the expectations of their times, their contributions to the world continue to guide and inspire us today. Where we lack, maybe the next generation can fill. Where we fail, maybe the next generation can succeed. I can only agree with one of the great artists of our times, when he said "Artists are mere terminals of the higher power." When you grow up, I want to tell you,
When You Grow Up I want To Tell You
When you grow up, you should know your thoughts can move the world.
What you do, what you say, what you think affects everyone.
So tame your thoughts, watch your words, guard your actions.
The sages say there is a law of attraction. Your positive thoughts attract positive ideas, and negative thoughts attract negative ideas.
The earth that you live in has its own standards. It is alive. It approves. It rejects.
The air you breathe yearns to retain its purity.
The water you drink desires itself to be like a mirror in its cleanness, and vegetation depend on it.
Why not just plant a flower and enjoy its beauty? Why not sow seeds of kindness and reap gratitude? Why not sow goodwill and reap peace?
What you do, what you say, what you think affects everyone.
So tame your thoughts, watch your words guard your actions.
It is the key to a peaceful life. #

So Blue, So Cool (A Poem About Miles Davis)
Hooked, harnessed and held I listen.
Not knowing how to sing
It is the sound of a stately trumpet somewhere speaking in the ray
Twilight and solitude
Realization and acknowledgment somehow rising above the fray.
An errant messenger noble, vast and true
A bluebird at the edge of cold air
Pomp and frippery Royal blood
A wonderful circumstance
In the moment
Yes High above the clouds
While many people may be familiar with Miles Davis, the musician who served as the inspiration for my poem, fewer people may know about Jazz Poetry. Jazz Poetry was first introduced to specific members of the American community during the early 1920's.
It's development coincided with a growing interest in Jazz, and more specifically Jazz culture, as it included a highly unique form of rhythm, melody and style that included an exceptional phraseology that was unfamiliar to vast segments of American society.
As a means to remedy this problem, Vachel Lindsay and Mina Loy were two writers who attempted to capture the essnce of this burgeoning cultural phenomenon. They attempted to convey some of the special characteristics of Jazz culture that had had a significant impact upon American artists, poets and free thinkers of various types during the second decade of the 20th century.
In retrospect however, it is certainly true that other artists had a greater feel and affinity for the music. They were able to write in a style that reflected the freedom of improvisation that was the cornerstone from which American Jazz had sprung.
In essence, they were able to capture the feeling, mood and rhythm of the work.
These artists included Langston Hughes and Paul Laurence Dunbar.
In effect, both Hughes and Dunbar expanded the spiritual realm of the English language as they wrote in a form that replicated the words of the musicians who were creating this wonderful form of music.
A fine example of Jazz Poetry is Langston Hughes' "I Too, Sing America". It is a jazzed up reference to Walt Whitman's illustrious poem, " I Hear America Singing".

Michael Jackson - The Truth
What's the truth about Michael Jackson? Unlike so many of the so called "talents" that are manufactured today on shows like American Idol, Michael Jackson's talent was natural. Even from the age of seven, his father Joe knew saw something there and began to exploit it early.
The truth is, somethings can't be taught or learned and Michael's talent certainly fits this category. Along with the ability to sing, dance and perform with the expertise of person many years older, young Michael Jackson was destined to be a star, whether he wanted it or not. It was clear that he loved to perform, however it also became obvious that he did not like socializing with people when he was off stage.
Only a few were allowed into his inner circle, mostly stars that shared a common ground with his rise from childhood stardom. Famous people like Elizabeth Taylor, Brook Shields, Macaulay Culkin, Emmanuel Lewis, and others who had a similar background were the few allowed into Michael Jackson's world. It was if they were all part of a fraternity of childhood stars that were forced to grow up quickly and thus lose their chance to be children at all.
With Michael, it seemed as if his artistic abilities were in direct contrast to his social skills and the two struggled to coexist throughout his rather short life. One could witness that when it came time to perform, Michael became a different person. Watch some of his videos and you'll see evidence of this: the expressions on his face, the determination to shine and impress, vs. off stage, when being interviewed, as he became rather shy and withdrawn.
In an interview several years back, Michael Jackson confessed that his childhood was not a very happy one. The pressures put on him by his father, which included both verbal and physical abuse, was just the start. Then, as he became the focal part of the Jackson 5, Michael felt the pressure of having to carry the family on their never ending ride to success. It was soon clear that he was the bread winner and the family was counting on him to out do himself with every consecutive success. Imagine having your family as well as the rest of the world expecting you to out perform yourself time and time again.
It's been documented that Michael Jackson would follow the charts daily to see where his record sales were and how they were charting. First came Off The Wall, and then Thriller, and then Bad, and with each successive album, Michael was determined to out do himself, a feat that proved impossible.
Millions of fans around the world are now mourning the loss of this incredible talent. How sad it is that we as humans forget what we have until it's no longer around, however I guess that's what makes us human after all. However, instead of the media dwelling on how different he was, his strange behavior, and his quirks, why not revel in his genius and art? After all, I'm sure if we all search deep within ourselves, every one of us has our own quirks and deep, dark secrets. Michael was a true genius when it came to his craft and his abilities and no speculation or undermining of his character now that he is gone will ever take away from that. In fact, as time goes by, the only things that will most likely remain about this man is his music. And that's all Michael Jackson wanted anyway: to share his gift with the world.

Michael Jackson Still Alive?
Michael Jackson is dead at 50 years old on June 25 2009. The "King of Pop" was an icon around the globe with millions of fans worldwide. But how could this have happened? What contributed to Michael Jackson's death? Many say it was his prescription drug use. Perhaps it was the stress on the "Mega" come-back he was planning. This knowledge is still unknown however there is another method Jackson was reported as using a few years back while still in his prime as his "Bad" tour was taking place. Through audio recordings Michael Jackson was said to be able to program his brains frontal lobes to weed out interferences and open up the communication channels inside his mind that are blocked by the conscious mind. This was said to become the main source of inspiration for Michael's post "Thriller" album. The audio recordings would later prove to become priceless as it has now sold over thousands of copies worldwide.
While it is not clear if Jackson used the recordings up until his tragic passing, it was very clear that Michael Jackson had a flare for the unknown and often reflected on "New Age" literature from his personal library.
He was fascinated with magic and always spoke about his awareness of "a higher presences". As we all look back on his fascinating life which was cut too short let us not forget that he is still with us in song and spirit and we all all owe a debt to the king of pop Michael Jackson for the massive contribution this one man has made to this world. So "the King" is not dead. We miss you Michael, may your soul be in peace now!

Got Dumped, and Want Your Ex Girlfriend Back? These Are Your Only Two Choices : By Brent Daniels
Listen dude, I know (believe me) that being dumped is tough. It eats you up. Especially if your girlfriend was the woman of your dreams. And even more so if she used to be yours for more than a year. A breakup an extremely painful experience to endure, one of the worst things a guy can go through.
If you are currently in this situation, you are at a crossroads right now. You will have to choose what you are going to do straight away. This is going to be your Battle Plan, you must do one of these two things. Only you can make the choice, and listen, there is no right or wrong here. But choose with care.
Choice number one: You can try to go through the pain, feel the true force of it. It will hurt like hell for some time. But after that you can let time heal your heartache bit by small bit. It will definitely heal, at some point. And the experience will make you stronger.
Choice number two: You can put up a fight once more, and really give everything you've got to win your ex girlfriend back. Make your true love yours again.
If you choose the latter, then you will need to come prepared. This game is not for sissies, you will need to man-up. Crying and whining, or stalking her is not gonna do it for you. You need a solid plan, and you need to pull yourself together.
If you want to learn some advanced solid psychological methods (that have produced proven results for 83.6% of the guys who were man enough to put them through a full test) do yourself a favor, and get an expert on board.

Michael Jackson Dies in LA: By Clinton Q Hester
After producing such amazing hits as Thriller, Billie Jean, Beat It, and a host of others, the King of Pop has gone the way of all the earth today. Michael Jackson, the King of Pop (and the King of Headlines, some may say), is now making headlines in a new way: Michael Jackson dies in LA. Today, he was pronounced dead at the UCLA University Hospital. His death brings sorrow probably to millions of pop fans around the world, some of whom might be the same ones who remember him having started out as the little kid with the afro and the nifty suit.
It's been a long ride from then to today, the day that Michael Jackson dies in LA. That ride has included such memorable moments as his dangling a baby out of an upper-story window in a Berlin Hotel; several rounds of plastic surgery and skin bleaching; accusations and even prosecution for various kinds of indecency; and a host of other things that could be called ills-but at the same time, knowing that he is gone does not mean that his spirit is gone as well. And by spirit, we don't mean anything metaphysical, religious, or sentimental-we mean simply that Michael Jackson is and was the King of Pop. Whether his crown goes into his grave with him remains to be seen, but Michael Jackson is not really as gone as some would think. For though the great pop star has died today, thinking that the spirit of Michael Jackson dies in LA today is to be thinking a falsehood.
What now will the great satirists of our age do? To whom will they turn? The great body of humor about Michael Jackson dies in LA today, that is for certain. It's a lot more difficult to embrace so great a body of humor when the subject is so black and bleak. (Though, truth be told, the Irish sense of humor is rather black, and so perhaps there will be Irish who can yet wring a joke or two from the poor corpse of the dead pop star.) Great researchers of pop culture will likely venerate him, while certainly being sure to balance the view with a bit of the darker truth, and so the satirists of our age will have to turn to the likes of Paris Hilton and Justin Timberlake for their kicks-Paris Hilton for the satire, and Justin Timberlake for the kicks (and the air guitar, and the crazy dance moves and . . . but it's not the same as MJ).
Because even though the spirit of pop and the greatness of the body of Michael Jackson music literature-spanning CDs, albums, vinyls, probably even 8-tracks, in addition to mp3s-will yet live, there is a little bit of the fact that some of the history of Michael Jackson dies in LA. And so however you choose to honor him, make your choice, and give him that honor-the King of Pop deserves at least a nod.

How To Attract Girls To You Without Saying A Word By KillerGrape
Even today, not many girls will chat up men or ask them out. For a start, they're brought up not to , and rejection hurts them much more than it does us. Plus they think if you're a man worth going out with you've got to have the guts to ask them!
What girls will do though is give off SIGNALS that they want to be chatted up. Most men don't know what these are. The secret to being successful is to know what these signals are and whenever you go out look out for these. If you get just ONE signal then swing into action IMMEDIATELY !
Remember, there's only one part of a man's body that most girls will melt for - and it's not what you think - it's your EYES. So, the first step to scoring is to make GOOD STRONG EYE CONTACT with any girl you fancy. It doesn't matter what you look like - If you have a good, strong gaze it can TURN HER ON. (Most men go wrong here - by looking at a girl's legs or breasts no way can you attract her to you.)
The minute you walk into a room start looking at every girl you fancy. Even if you think she's far too stunning to ever go out with you. And look at her eyes. Make full eye contact. And give her a smile too. Don't leer or glare. This is a sure fire way to get the chemistry going. It tells her she's under scrutiny and in this situation there is no way a girl cannot react one way or the other.
Finally remember - The best looking girls are often short of dates because few men dare to make EYE CONTACT with them. The better looking she is the more likely she is to warm to eye contact .
And How to Tell That She's Interested ....
You'll know immediately if a girl's interested. She'll look straight back, then turn away, and perhaps smile. If she fixes you in a steely glare it's probably not going to happen. IT'S THE TURNING AWAY THAT TELLS YOU THAT SOMETHING'S CLICKED.
There are other signs you should look for too. If she plays with her hair or jewellery , adjusts her clothing or breathes in (to show you how slim she is!) these are all so-called preening signs. They say that she's interested in your approach, and she's trying to look her best for you.
From a girl's point of view these signs say 'I'd like to talk to you !' SO IF THIS HAPPENS YOU MUST MAKE THE EFFORT TO TALK TO HER .

How To Attract Girls - In 3 Amazingly Easy Steps By Pushpa Pal Singh
So what is the true secret to attracting girls? Why is it that some guys get all the attention from girls as and when they please while others keep struggling to even initiate a conversation with girls? Now you might be thinking that these guys are naturally gifted with the power to attract girls but the fact is the exact opposite. They are not born this way rather they know what works with girls and what does not. Remember it's all about your skills and how you use them. These skills can be easily developed with practice. Read on to discover how to attract girls using these special skills.
Communication- This is one of the most overlooked skill when it comes to attracting girls and getting the best results. Communication lays the basic foundation of attracting girls and you simply can not attract girls unless you become a very good communicator. Your personality is represented by the way you talk and present yourself. Girls tend to evaluate guys based on the very first five minutes of conversation with them. This is normally the time frame when they make a mental judgment on the person they are talking to. Therefore learn to develop and master your communication skills in order to really attract girls.
Respect yourself- Girls are normally attracted to men who respect themselves and know their true self worth. Remember the more value you add to yourself the more attractive you would become to girls.
Never chase them- Girls don't want a man who chases girls everywhere rather they would become highly attracted towards you if you have girls chasing you. It's a simple concept you see. If you are already being chased by other girls than you automatically become a rare commodity and girls are always in the lookout for men who are wanted by other girls.

How to Catch a Cheater Fast - Go Ahead and Unleash Your Clever Side With This Fail Proof Trick! By Jenny Melbourne
So your spouse or lover thought that he/she could get away with cheating? Maybe your wife thought that you wouldn't ever find out about her dirty deeds behind your back. Perhaps your boyfriend thought he could cheat you again and again, without you ever finding out? Well, today is judgment day for any cheater out there, because you are about to find out the fail proof method of catching a cheater almost instantly...
Step #1: Be discrete- at all costs, do not let your partner know that you know! Whenever you are trying to collect evidence, you must never be obvious about it, because the more they think you are onto them, the more a cheater will hide things! Cheaters will only pay huge detail to hiding their dirty deeds, if they feel you will find out, otherwise they are less careful, so just lay low for now.
Step #2: Collect all of strange and suspicious phone numbers from their phone bills, cell phone and land line. If you are having difficulties getting phone numbers, then you can easily find a phone USB device which will tell you the data being sent or put into the phone, such as texts or phone numbers etc.
Step #3: Put each number into a reverse phone detective to find out the name and address of each person whose number it is. Obviously, by telling who your partner is talking to you can easily see if he/she is cheating on you. However, we can take this even further to completely bust your partner red handed in the act...
Step #4: Track your lover/spouse- You can either get a GPS tracker and hide it under one of the seats, or you can use your own GPS if you have one already. Most GPS systems will allow you to see where the person is going from online at home, so you can easily just watch now, to see if your partner/spouse goes to any of the addresses or person(s) houses that you now have.

Are You Being Lied to by a Cheating Spouse? 3 Sure Shot Ways to Catch a Lie Almost Instantly! By Jenny Melbourne
No one is perfect, that is for certain, but lies can really damage the foundation of a relationship, because they destroy trust. Sadly, most lies that occur in a relationship, are because someone is cheating. If you want to finally know the truth, and be able to catch a lie fast, then I suggest you use these 3 ways to tell if your spouse is lying to you...
1. They do not look you in the eyes when talking to you. This is a huge sign that someone is lying, because they feel ashamed and are scared to be caught, your partner will not give proper eye contact. As well, he/she will seem very uncomfortable and will touch his/her face a lot while talking to you. Places to watch for especially include, touching/scratching his/her eyebrows or chin.
2. He/she changes the subject when you ask them about it- Your partner may directly change the subject in a rude manner, and tell you they do not want to talk about it, or your partner try to be sneaky by talking about what is on TV etc to distract you instead. Whatever the case is, changing the subject is always a sign that your partner is lying to you, and especially is a sign that your spouse is cheating on you, if they do this when asked about things related to cheating.
3. Your spouse will argue with you, or act highly defensive. You may even notice your lover saying things like "how can you say that? You know I wouldn't do anything like that" or "You obviously don't trust me as much as I trust you", just to turn the argument on you and make you feel guilty instead. You will also find that he/she is very defensive even for the most simple questions, and that is simply because he/she feels guilty.

How to Attract an Older Girl By Yhincah
You're head over heels in love with a Venus, the one girl you'll be happy with forever... only two problems remain: She's older than you, and you're younger than her. This article will allow you to win the girl of your dreams.
Steps
Be mature. When she's passing you in the hallway, don't keep talking to your best friend about EarthBound, talk about something mature such as a team you might be in, a book you might have recently read, something you know someone her age would be interested in.
Be conscious about your appearance. If you're playing with your GameBoy and smell like you haven't taken a shower in 2 days, you had better hope that she doesn't notice you. Make sure to wear cologne (but not too much), comb your hair and focus on making yourself as good-looking as possible. If you don't know what cologne to get, have a girl that's a friend help you. Try to look as tall as you possibly can. Sorry to short guys, but taller guys usually have an easier time with a girl's attention. Put your chest out(it shows confidence), and try to put yourself in a position where you look like the center of everything.
Join an activity she is in and/or might be interested in. If she is in a debate team, joining the team and looking smart will get her to respect you.
Don't be ashamed to ask her out. This is a sure way to prove you're more mature than you look and that's a good thing.
Make friends with her friends One tip is to make friends with her friends. That way, you don't look like a complete outsider and it makes you look (and feel) more connected with the group.
Tips
Attracting an older girl requires the exact same skills as getting a girl your age; you just have to be better at them.
Be aware she might like you but she might have a problem dating a younger guy because her classmates and friends might make fun of her.
When you talk to her, don't try to sound smarter than you would normally be at your age, it will make you look an idiot.
There's usually a friend of hers that everybody can read like a book. Ask her friend questions that can help you.
Confections can be hard. You can talk to her friend that can help and you trust.
Warnings
Don't ever do anything immature in front of her, such as playing some video game (unless she's into video games), laughing with your buds about some dumb joke, or picking your nose. Don't, however, pretend to be someone you're not, or pretend to like things that you don't. They come back to bite you.
If you do join a team she's interested in, you may want to acquire the skills to do well on that team. If you fumble at each question/debate, you won't gain her respect at all.
Don't tell her friend anything, because you're not the only one who can read her like a book.
Don't use sweet talk. You'll only say the wrong thing and get a slap round the face.

Miss California Fired, But Fighting Back By Buzzle Staff
Carrie Prejean was finally removed as Miss California yesterday, but she has gone on the offensive, pointing out that she was likely fired because of her stance on gay marriage.
Carrie Prejean, in an ironic twist, is likely going to end up being as much a symbol of intolerance as her detractors thought when she first answered her Miss USA pageant question from Perez Hilton. The irony is that Prejean is now a greater victim of intolerance than anything that she advocated in her now-infamous answer.
Prejean was officially removed as Miss California yesterday, following weeks of controversy and rumors that suggested the move was imminent. But Prejean eventually received a vote of confidence from Donald Trump, the CEO of Miss USA, and things seemed to settle a bit. But now that she has been stripped of her crown, Prejean has wasted no time in offering her side of the story.
Early reports are that Prejean was fired for what amounts to a breach of contract. It was stated that she did not fulfill her obligations as Miss California, including scheduled appearances.
While appearing on the Today Show with Matt Lauer this morning, Prejean asked Lauer to cite any instances in which she failed to appear for a scheduled appearance. Lauer read a statement that said she has missed "tens and tens" of appearances, both before and after the Miss USA pageant. Prejean countered logically, asking how many scheduled appearances could there possibly have been in the 30 days between her winning MIss California and the Miss USA pageant itself.
She also repeated her instructions from the Miss California pageant's organizers, which was to focus her efforts on winning Miss USA. The story is far from over, but Prejean appears to be winning the battle for common sense, despite her position on gay marriage.

How to date a church girl when you're the Devil By Streetpoet
Here are a few tips on how any sinner in the world can win over the heart and soul of a church girl!
Step 1 Buy a Bible. Or better yet go to a thief store and buy a used one. The more read and worn out it looks the better.
Step 2 Tell her that you’ve never opened up to a woman like this and that you feel naked and vulnerable and wish you had the strength and dedication to be a better Christian like she is.
Step 3 Name drop a couple of churches you’ve attended as a child and tell her why you stopped going and confess to her that you feel like something has been missing in your life ever since then. She’ll want o help you reestablish your relationship with Jesus Christ.
Step 4 Tell her you don’t know if that’s such a good idea because the last time you went to church it left a bad taste in your mouth. Meaning nosey church folks and Super Christians scared you off and damed your soul to hell forever!
Step 5 Tell her you want her to pray for you and sit down and pray together. A church girl cannot resist a sinner who is willing to sit down and pray.
Step 6 Get her to open up to you and tell you all about her sins and everything she used to do back when she was in the world.
Step 7 Now you have the girl and she’s found a soul to save! The rest is up to you. Just don't invite me over to Bible study when you're secretly reading Stuff magazine while she's trying to save your unworthy soul!

3 Steps to a Better Voice - Body Posture and Singing By Bob Pardue
In the vocal world there are many answers to the question of how to sing better. The points here about body posture and singing will get you started on a journey so that you can learn how to sing well. Good luck in your musical career, hope to see you on American Idol one day!
Improve Body Posture for Better Singing
Music theory is fine when you're practicing but during a singing performance, your body posture is extremely important. It affects how well you're able to project your voice and reach those low and high notes.
Note the positioning of your arms while singing. Lift your arms slightly away from your body. Your arms should not be glued to your side. If you are not holding a microphone, you can clasp your hands in front or bring your arms a bit forward to your sides.
The arms should be flexible and relaxed - not stiff. This position enables you to fill your lungs to capacity and expand your ribcage. You'll get more air and be able to sing more clearly and strongly. When hitting high notes, raise your arms slightly higher than usual. For low notes, do the opposite.
How to Hold Your Feet and Knees while Singing
Your feet should be around shoulder's width apart. You can place one foot further forward than the other foot to help keep your balance. Never lock your knees in one position - you might faint on stage! Bend your knees slightly for added balance and comfort.
If you're planning to sing while sitting, keep your feet planted flat on the floor. Sit in a straight position, but avoid stiffness. And, don't forget to breathe while sitting.

Make Money With Art - How to Make Money With Art Online By Richard Rowley
Learning how to make money with art is something that has always been perceived to be difficult and hard work. Terms like 'the starving artist' are exactly what has come to be expected of the industry. With the incredible power of the internet is it possible to start earning from your artwork?
Quite simply put it is possible. But you do have to think a little differently to find the most profitable methods. Now if you are the kind of artist that is not moving with the times, hey that's fine. But the method I am going to write about is one that will exploit your work and perhaps change some of your perceptions. Maybe even some of your artistic morals will be slightly threatened.
Yes, if you aren't moving with the times and utilising the internet to sell some of your unique pictures then don't read on.
I am not talking about eBay - Effective but time consuming. Even the packing and shipping part of it takes all the fun out of it for me. I don't think I would do that for 6 figures....Well OK for 6 figures I probably would.
I am also not talking about owning and running your own website. Yes this too is a great method. It can be like owning your own online art gallery, but you then have to spend half of your time marketing your website so that people and buyers will actually find it and buy from it.
Now this is the juicy bit. This is the bit that certain artists just don't get, they understand it can change their lives but its almost as if they don't really want to make money from their passion, who knows. If that's you DON'T read on.
I am going to break this up into steps so its really simple to understand and visualize.
1. Create some artwork, a sketch, a painting, anything even a photo.
2. Find an 'art agent' site.
3. Register with the website.
4. Scan and upload your artwork.
5. let them market your work and find buyers.
6. Let a buyer download your artwork for say $1.
7. Split the profit with the agent website. 50 cents each.
8. Keep your copyright, keep the picture, keep it on the same site for it to be downloaded again and again.
9. Create some more artwork.
10. Upload and keep repeating the process.
100 downloads, 100 x 50 cents = you do the math.
You can Make Money With Art on auto pilot and there is success to be had but you do have to do the work. Don't think for 1 minute that you can upload 1 drawing or 1 photo and then sit back and wait. That doesn't work for anyone, you must build up a mini empire of work. Just add 1 small picture per day.
For my recommended site, click and to learn how to Make Money With Art Discover how a college kid got paid thousands whilst he worked from his dorm. This information is not for everybody. If you're offended by how much money you could have been making from your art all this time just leave the page and forget about it.
Quite simply put it is possible. But you do have to think a little differently to find the most profitable methods. Now if you are the kind of artist that is not moving with the times, hey that's fine. But the method I am going to write about is one that will exploit your work and perhaps change some of your perceptions. Maybe even some of your artistic morals will be slightly threatened.

How to Date a Confident Girl By Sony Lukes
There aren't too many girls like this out there, so you should know how to treat one if you can get her
Steps
Be very straightforward and positive and be fearless of stepping into, and through, your fears. Girls like this will not tolerate insecurity which prevents personal growth.
Introduce yourself. It's okay if it's completely random, just be prepared to tell the truth about why you approached her (you think she's beautiful, smart etc.).
Make sure you are strong-willed. secure, self-reliant, quick-witted girls like a challenge, not a sycophant.
Ask her on a date. Don't make it too formal and romantic. Confident girls appreciate the ability to dream, just as long as you know the difference between 'dream' and 'reality'. Make sure, especially if you asked first, which may not be the case, that it is off-beat, casual, and unique.
Be prepared to surprise the girls once in a while. Confident girls like good ideas with clever execution.
Ask for a permanent relationship. Eventually, if she likes you and hasn't asked you already, ask her to be your girlfriend.
If she says no, cut your losses and move on. Never ever stalk her or anything else. If she wants to be friends, ask yourself if you can do that.
If she says yes, just keep treating her right, don't go too fast (she will set the pace, otherwise she will feel like a sex object), and you will have a great relationship. Keep it in mind to respect your own boundaries as well and tell her if she is going too fast. Go as slow as the person who wants it slower wants.
Also, they know their own self worth, so be prepared to work for a girl like this. They are worth it.
Treat her like the woman she is. Girls who have free spirits and are undaunted by life will refuse to be treated poorly by guys or anything else in life.
Be prepared to lose to her, in arguments or any kind of competition. Lose with grace. "Lose the battle, win the war."
Don't treat her like arm candy. You will be dumped. She is a catch, but not a prize to be won for display. Have her because you admire her, not because your friends do.
Not every confident girl will seek to dominate or control you or the relationship. No truly confident person will ever seek to dominate or control you, but they will take control of situations. A confident person will justify their arguments with substantial reasoning, and you will have to do the same to change their views.
Keep up with your own life. Successful women are attracted to success.

Fun in the Sun - Planning a Beach Party By Donna Pilato
Few experiences capture the essence of summer as strongly as a day at the beach. When the hot, humid weather hits, that's about the only place I want to be, lounging in the sand, cooling off at the shoreline, and relaxing under the sun. And given the perfection of a summer day at the beach, the only way it can be made better is by hosting a party there, and inviting your favorite beach bum friends to enjoy the salty, sea air with you. Keep your party casual, transportable, and by all means as relaxed as a day at the beach should be.
Preparing for Your Beach Party
Write your invitations on a deflated beach ball. Ask your friends to inflate the ball and bring it with them to the party, along with their own chair, beach blanket and towel.
Prior to your party, check with local officials to determine the rules regarding alcoholic beverages, bottles and whether you will be responsible for taking your trash with you when you leave, or whether there are receptacles on the beach for your trash.
If required, obtain a permit for your party or bonfire (if you plan to make one).
Research the cooking facilities that are already available on the beach, and what kind of grill, if any, you can bring with you for preparing food.
Be sure to have enough large coolers and ice to transport your food and beverages to the party and keep them at a safe temperature until they're consumed.
Favors and Activities
Give everyone your party favor at the beginning of your party. Make it a beach pail with shovel, sunscreen, water squirt bottle, and sun visor. If your budget allows, toss in an after-sun product too.
Bring equipment for a game of beach volleyball.
Organize a sand castle building contest. Everyone can use the pail and shovel you have given to them. Judge creations in any number of categories including tallest castle, biggest castle, most authentic looking castle, etc.
If you're on a beach with interesting sea shells, send your guests scavenging for the best variety of shells. You'll know who tried the hardest by the amount of sun burn on their back and shoulders!
Remember to bring along music and play your favorite beach songs throughout the party.
Challenge your guests to a hula hoop contest to see who can keep one spinning for the longest time.
The Menu
Enhance your fun on the beach by preparing as much food as you can before you leave home. Just be careful to transport the food at the correct temperature.
Szechuan Cold Garlic Shrimp - This recipe needs to be made in advance to allow adequate time for chilling.
Red's Eats Lobster Rolls - Lobster rolls always remind me of summer road trips through New England.
Grilled Gourmet Sausages - Many stores now offer a wide variety of sausages from Italian pork, to spicy chicken or turkey, to seafood blends. Serve on crusty rolls topped with any of the following: grilled onions, sweet, hot, or pickled peppers, mustard, ketchup, or salsa as the sausage dictates. Plan to cook the sausages on the beach for maximum freshness.
Sweet Corn and Tomato Salad with Fresh Cilantro - Here's a great combination of summer vegetables, destined to travel well, and add extra layers of summer taste to your party.
S'mores - Who doesn't love this do-it-yourself treat in the summer?
Purchased Frozen Fruit Bars - This will be a refreshing treat during the heat of your party.
Assorted Cold Beverages such as Beer, Iced Tea, Lemonade, and Water
