| | | Pilates Session Etiquette | | 2008-05-24 13:56:00 | | As a studio owner in the busy wealthy suburbs of Philadelphia, I learned quickly that people have no limitations in terms of cell phone usage. People would be on the phone in the hall, on the reformer, in class. They needed it in case of emergency nanny, school, or office calls (but seemed to answer the phones at all times anyway). Now Stephanie Pierson and Barbara Harrison of The Huffingtom Post have assured me that some etiquette rules must apply in the Pilates studio."Consider your priorities. 'Definitely not during Pilates class. If it's your own private training session, it's your dollar and your time. But it sends a strong message to your trainer as to your priorities,' says Melanie Melillo, Fitness Director at Women For Fitness."Don't be rude to your Pilates teacher.

| | Manage Your Meetings - Teleconference Etiquette | | 2008-02-19 10:02:44 | | Are you teleconference calls muddled by background noises to the point of distraction?

| | Basic Billiard Etiquette | | 2008-02-15 12:11:00 | | Probably billiards are played by almost every billiard parlor in every country that most of us may miss or not know some basic etiquette of playing billiards. Actually most os them are just basic down right common sense and courtesy,please respect the billiards sport, don't get yourself rowdy over a miscue and tarnish it's image. The very basic and important rule is do not make yourself a distraction to the player. Making sudden loud noise and fast movements may distract the player. But most of all, never stand or cross in the line of sight of the player. What is the line of sight? It is purely the path of the eye of the player focusing along his billiard cue stick, tip and ball. If you are unintentionally in the line of sight of the player, simply stop moving of cause acute movements of the body until the player completes his shot, just be courteous. This too applies to your neighbouring billiards table who is playing in the same billiard parlor, be polite, who knows, you may make mor... | | By: Billiard HQ | | |
| | Fishing Etiquette | | 2008-02-14 18:47:11 | | I had a really great question from one of my readers recently about cast netting etiquette that got me thinking (again) about fishing etiquette. Where I come from it is very impolite to fish within 50 meters or so (without asking) of another boat. Last trip the old man and I were fishing a small (read very small) wreck with our anchor over one side we were sitting just off the middle. Another boat came along and was sounding around trying to work out what we were on - they got so close that they almost ran over our anchor line. However, this was not the worst, when they realised we were on a wreck (and they wanted to be there too) they anchored over our anchor line and finished up within spitting distance of our boat - rude! Lucky I am a calm person - lets face it most people go fishing to get away from it all not to join a crowd.Here are some really good fishing etiquette tips to follow I have collected from all over the Internet:Treat other anglers, boaters and other people we might ... | | By: The Ultimate Fishing Blog | | |

| | Boat Ramp Etiquette | | 2007-12-28 22:32:35 | | I found this great little article during my web surfing this morning and thought I would share it with my readers. I recommend reading the whole fishing and boating article here.A good day on the water can be spoiled by a lack of ‘boat ramp etiquette’. This refers to someone who has insufficient consideration or understanding for other ramp users, isn’t prepared and takes too long to either launch or retrieve a vessel.LAUNCHINGPrepare your boat before approaching the ramp. This includes loading all gear, checking fuel, removing tie-downs, fitting bungs, turning on battery switch, finding the key, etc. There is nothing more frustrating for other boat ramp users than watching someone drive onto the apron of the ramp and begin doing all the above jobs whilst everyone waits.When you boat is completely ready to launch, get in line and wait for your turn to use the ramp.Always check a boat ramp before reversing down it. Check for length of ramp, drop-offs, etc.Carefully back down the ramp and get the boat in the water quickly and calmly. When launching use a long rope secured to the bow to control the boat and clear other boats and trailers. On larger boats an additional rope on the stern will assist in windy or wash conditions.Have someone on board to immediately start the boat and/or move it way from the ramp so the next person can proceed. Park your car and return to your waiting boat that has been moved away from the ramp (the sand or nearby jetty) is a good option.RETRIEVINGExtra care and patience are needed when returning to the ramp at the end of the day. Tempers can fray easily after a day of sun and excitement. Children will be tired. Alcohol can cause unhelpful behaviour so try to stay calm and be as prepared as you possibly can.Organise your gear whilst underway back to the ramp, not once you get there.Approach slowly in congested areas for the safety of yourself and others.Queue on a sandy beach if possible or make sure you identify who is befo... | | By: The Ultimate Fishing Blog | | |
| | Spa Etiquette Basics | | 2007-12-07 02:26:00 | | Spa Code of ConductWhen you walk through the doors of your favorite spa, sit down in the massaging pedicure chair and stick your feet into the water that isn't quite the right temperature, do you say anything to your therapist?What about if you walk into a treatment room for your hot stone massage and the music is too loud? If the stones are too hot, do you just lie on the table and grin and bear it?You should speak up and communicate your preferences in all these situations, according to A Spa "Code of Conduct" developed by The International SPA Association and Resort Hotel Association.The Spa Code of Conduct spells our you rights and responsibilities as a spa guest so you have a more satisfying spa experience.Here is the Spa Code of Conduct:As a Spa Guest, it is your responsibility to:-Communicate your preferences, expectations and concerns-Communicate complete and accurate health information and reasons for your visit-Treat staff and other guests with courtesy and respect-Use produ... | | By: Spas Massage | | |

| | | Dojo Etiquette and Lexicon "Onegaishimasu"" | | 2007-09-17 10:14:00 | | "Onegaishimasu" (pronounced 'oh-nay-guy-she-mas') is a common phrase you will hear and use repeatedly during Aikido class. In Aikido class, it is a polite way of asking to work with and recognizing a new training partner to practice a technique.When you are done practicing a technique or working with a training partner, you would say, "Arigato Gozaimashita" (pronouced 'ar-ee-ga-toe go-za-ee-ma-she-ta' ), which is just a polite way of saying thank you.At Castle Rock Aikido, we focus on quality, traditional Aikido instruction. If you live in the South Denver metro area, Parker, and even Colorado Springs, we invite you to see if our Aikido class is right for you.

| | A Lesson in Camping Etiquette From the Stringband Jamboree | | 2007-08-13 22:13:00 | | To be fair, the Jamboree itself wasn't bad. By the time we cut through the traffic and filled our bellies, we managed to see three artists, and two of them were really good. The first, Rachel Ries, is who we were most excited about. Her smooth, somewhat airy vocals don't sound unlike many other airy-voiced chanteuses, but her lyrics are lovely enough to set her apart, and sweet enough to aptly complement a chilly evening in a dark field upstate. (Ok if we call it that?)

| | Internet Message Board Etiquette... or Why I Shouldn't Talk Shit On-Line | | 2007-03-10 19:11:00 | | Ok, I love movies (except for Jerry Bruckheimer productions), and I love talking movies. So where do I do most of this you might ask? Why at the Internet Movie Database message boards of course. I find these boards to be a wealth of information, as well as a place to vent about what I feel is bloated hollywood (this years academy awards) , with bloated stars (Jack Nicholson anyone?), and bloated contracts (Internet piracy cost movie studios an estimated 30 million dollars last year, exactly what Arnold Schwarzenegger got paid for Terminator 3 - Rise of the Machines). So the other day I was complaining there about Oceans 13, because as most people have figured out,unlike the first Ocean's movie (which had some definite artistic flair), the sequels have turned into poor plots so rich Hollywood stars can get a free vacation.Reportedly, George hosts huge, lavish boat parties during production for his friends. I have no problem with what these guys choose to do, but if the movie you produce from this is crap, I refuse to see it or promote it before it's release. I let my thoughts be know on this on the Oceans 13 board on Friday (transcript below)....Here's how to sucker a studio into paying for a vacation for starsby descentor 1 day ago (Fri Mar 9 2007 13:08:38)Hi, I'm George Clooney. I've realized that if I invite a bunch of my Hollywood friends to star in a movie with no plot and have a competent film-cut-man at the helm (a.k.a. Steven Soderbergh) we can play cards, on yachts, in exotic locations, eat well, and generally mug for the camera and get paid. This is because idiots in America will goto see anything we tell them to. Oh trust me, we do some good things with the money, like produce trash vanity projects ( like Full Frontal, Bubble, and The Good German). So please watch Oceans Thirteen, because I'm using the left over cash from this one to produce an outer space version of Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid starring myself and Brad Pitt.
