  Sari - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
the two-piece sari, or mundum neryathum, worn in Kerala.
Saris are woven with one plain end (the end that is concealed inside the wrap), two long decorative borders running the length of the sari, and a one to three foot section at the other end which continues and elaborates the length-wise decoration.
In modern times, saris are increasingly woven on mechanical looms and made of artificial fibers, such as polyester, nylon, or rayon, which do not require starching or ironing.

She said she was transferred from one city department to another until city employees started referring her back to departments she already had spoken to.

Lee apologized for her late arrival and said that the City’s $4 penalty for exceeding metered parking limitations was not severe enough to modify the behavior of a realtor or a lawyer entertaining a client.

 Sari
Rafael Sari has been the Sardinian poet who more than anyone else has felt dramatically the problem of language (of his poetic language), finding himself every time in a position of having to choose between that contaminated and updated variant of Catalan which is the dialect of Alghero and pure Catalan, and between the latter
All the more so since Sarti wanted to be exclusively the bard of his city, going so far as to make it not only his petita pàtria, his little fatherland, but, as it happened to the petite capitale of the poets from Parma, almost a capital of the world.
Rafael Sari could be called a Sardinian-Catalan poet: if his words are no doubt of Catalan origin, Sardinian (and all inscribed in that tradition) is the content of his poetry.

Following are things I've noticed about LA since moving from New York City in October 1999, with some comparison of the two cities, in no particular order.
Parking is an exercise in absurdity in New York City and LA. Though there are more parking spaces available in LA than in New York City, there are also more drivers, and the spots are smaller than most of their cars.
Finally, a disclaimer: depending on where you're from and where you are, many of the notes above might speak just as effectively for their respective cities as they do against them -- or vice versa.
