The 10 Most Counterfeited Products in America http://finance.yahoo.com/news/the-10-most-counterfeited-products-in-america-180942491.html

If I'm a seller, I could say anything I want, just to sell my product, specially online! I also do not recommend paying anything online using Paypal. I got screwed once, it took 3 years to get my credit.

Example from YA!: "On the 10th of November we returned a watch I had bought for my husband, it was supposed to be an automatic but when it was taken off stopped after a short while. I phoned to tell then and they said to return it for a refund, I know it reached them on the 11th November as I tacked it by the post office. the promised refund has yet to come after several email all ignored and a few phone calls now all I can do is contact the credit card company. so customers beware".
AND beware of international shipping, they could add 3-25% extra fees, even if the price is cheap.
My merchant was from Texas, but the product was shipped from Hong Kong.
Other times, when you need to call Customer Service, they speak in foreign tongue and no one to translate them or JUST they don't answer calls.

Michael kors watches ebay or amazon fake?

Salomon

hello.i was wondering are the michael kors watches sold on amazon or ebay fake?if so how can you tell

Answer
Were they bought on eBay, Etsy, Amazon, Craigslist, Costco, Asos Market, street vendors, or online store? Kiosk @ the mall? NOT REAL.
Were they bought @ Certified MK dealer like Saks, Nordstrom, Neiman Marcus, Nike, Prada, Lucky, Converse, Kohl brands, Free People, Juicy, Fox Croft, J. Crew, Banana Republic, Miss Me, and True Religion or any department stores in your city? THEY'RE REAL. Those stores don't sell fake Designer Labels or brands! Outlet stores, Marshall's, TJ Maxx, Ross, etc. . . . don't sell fake merchandise, or they would have been CLOSED down. They sell the same quality products as those other bigger stores, 35-45% less, because they've been rejected by Quality Controllers. They may have a small flaw, packaging dents, scratched, or ripped, maybe the hem was off, or missing a button or belt loop . . .or who knows what they were looking for but 90% nothing wrong with them!

Why are the elderly so resistant to change?

mckgreg

Go spend a day in senior housing. You will find the residents watching the same shows, playing the same games, eating the same food, etc., day after day after day. Especially "The Price is Right." What's up!! How about a little change?
I know seniors' lives quite well as a thirty-something National Park Ranger acting as caretaker to my grandmother. She lives in a senior apartment complex alongside a great number of other seniors. I like them and they are my friends as I am theirs. I've given them custom ranger talks, made food for and with them, and assisted many in need. I'm just concerned for them as FEAR seems to be a big part of their mentality! One of those fears seems to be of those things new. The more they avoid change the less they appear to understand the ever-changing world. They then FEAR the world as they don't understand it. They also, in large part, seem to not trust many people. It can be depressing.

Answer
Well, you presume too much.

SOME or even MOST might be unwilling to change but there are legions of us out here who's lives are full and exciting....who are out and about, active. I, too, live in a 55+ place...big 10 story apartment building with lovely apartments.... I live on the top floor.
I believe there are 232 apartments here...something like that.

I see sooooo many here who don't do a thing. some who gather in the common room and sit there all day gabbing and gossiping. Others who play cards or bingo. Some who are on casino buses every week. Some who can no longer drive take advantage of the senior transportation offered by the country and they go off to wherever the van is going.

I walk.....everyday. There are 4 or 5 of us here who seem to be regular walkers....but are on different schedules. There is a lovely housing development behind the building with a central park and lovely little pond. There is a walking/bicyling path about 2 miles long that wanders around the park.

Personally, I have so many things I like to do....I embroider, play my keyboard or guitar...I'm learning the ukelele...just for the heck of it. I love to cook. My favorite is books, books, books. I have always been an avid reader (coming from a family of readers)..when I was working, raising my family, keeping house and husbands...I had little time for it. My one great luxury is to sit on my comfortable sofa and read all day and half the night if I want to.

I rarely watch television...but I do have over 300 videos and DVD's with classic films, current films and others. In the cold of winter, a coupla good movies and a huge bowl of popcorn can keep me warm and fuzzy all afternoon.

I think that women who have no hobby, who don't read, who have no interests are very, very sad people. I look at some of them here and I think "what a waste". Life is too damn short.

I heard that Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart used to spend about ten hours everyday for practicing.Is that true?

Human

Answer
I highly doubt that Mozart practiced 10 hours a day. It would almost be impossible for him to practice 10 hours a day and there were periods of time that he probably didn't practice for a couple weeks.

1. As a child he went on several tours to perform. The only method of travel during Mozart's time was horse and carriage. I trip from Salzburg to Italy which he did on 3 separate occasions probably took a month to. He may have been lucky to have a piano to practice on at an Inn where he and his father would rest at night. Chances that the Inn had a piano are slim, so during travel Mozart most likely didn't practice.

He had many travel days throughout his career - trips to Mannheim, Italy, Vienna, Paris, London, Amsterdam, Zurich and many more.

2. When Mozart was a child, he spent a significant amount of time composing. Since he didn't have the luxuries of a computer and notation software like Finale, it can be deduced that notating his compositions took a great deal of time. Mozart is said to be able to compose an entire piece in his head and then transcribe it to paper but even with his geniusness, it takes time to put things on paper! Remember they used ink that took a lot longer to dry than our ball points pens.

3. Even though Mozart was pressured by his father constantly, practicing was not an issue with Leopold. He knew his son was talented and understood that Wolfgang would practice seriously. Leopold watched over his son's practicing - both on piano and violin. Wolfgang did not practice without his father watching over as Leopold wanted to make sure everything was done properly and didn't want Wolfgang to develop bad habits and get lazy. Leopold knew that if was not watching over that Wolfgang would fall to this. Wolfgang was a mischievious child and his immaturity would always be a characteristic in his music and in his life as he grew up. Leopold also watched over Wolfgang sister Nannerl and her practice. Leopold was also won of the top string teachers in Salzburg and had many students. Leopold performed in the court orchestra and also composed. It is highly unlikely that Leopold could watch over Wolfgang practice for 10 hours!

3. When Mozart was married, he spent more time applying for jobs attempting to earn a post at a church to earn a living. He and Constanze did not have deep pockets, they were completely the opposite. They were poor... very poor. What ever Mozart could do to make money he did! He took on many commissions to provide for him and his family. I is said to compose operas in a month. To compose an opera in a month takes a lot of commitment to the score, therefore practicing 10 hours a day would be impossible.

Remember Mozart also taught, he had many students who were mostly female. During Mozart's time a piano lesson wasn't once a week for 1 hour. Lessons were every day. One could say lessons were supervised practice. The women he taught were well off and from upper class families. Many of the women would have 3 or 4 hour lessons with Mozart which included piano, violin and the study of counterpoint.

It would be impossible for Mozart to practice 10 hours a day with his teaching schedule, time committed to composition, travel days, searching for jobs, chamber rehearsals and rehearsing church choirs.

Are you supposed to negotiate when buying luxury brand jewelry?

Q. For example, I've bought a few pieces from Tiffany and the first time I went, I asked if they negotiate and they said no. Now, obviously they could just be lying, but I believed them. I've also bought a Cartier watch and didn't negotiate the price then either. I am planning on buying a Rolex watch and was just wondering if I'm supposed to negotiate for it or not.

Answer
Of course you should. I walked past a jewelry store a couple of years ago and saw a ring that looked very attractive. I thought that my wife would love it, they wanted just under 2K for it. I walked in with my daughter and asked what they could do on the price, they knocked $600.00 off the asking price. My wife loved the ring and I save $600.00 . With the economy in the tank it is a smart consumer who would ask "what can you do for me". Whats the worst they can say is no, and you move on to the next store.

trying to buy a watch ?

Sayid Forg

i'm trying to buy a watch around 800 - 900 US $
i'm 17 by now and wanted to know what is the cheapest Chopard Model and is it good to buy a low price but a Big Brand or the best model of the low Brand ??

Answer
I have a couple from each instance you are bringing up. On one hand I have a Rolex DateJust and an Omega Seamaster, and on the other, a decent higher end Tremalt. My advice would be not to be terribly caught up on the name brand... because the name brand is essentially what you are paying for. If there is, however, a function that you cannot live without or a specific model that you are craving (which it doesn't sound like is the case), then do your research, however, new models will only be sold in the stores, although there are a few reputable used watch sellers on ebay with thousands of feedback scores (make sure they are all from watches, not fluffed with action figure sales or something!!).

FYI, to answer your question literally, the Chopard happy sport models are the cheapest.

Also, if you plan to spend that cash, please make sure you are buying a timepiece, rather than a nice bracelet with a clock in it. Look for a chronometer, aka mechanical or self-winding movement. This will give and allow it to maintain it's value, although admittently not as accurate and requires service. Movado, Tag Heuer, and yes.. Chopard are indeed some of the culprits who don't necessarily specialize in timepieces, but rather, timekeeping jewelry.

Check out the Omega Constellation line... Oris and Longines are pretty good for the money too, as they don't sell for their retail often. Keep in mind... if you are getting a Cartier or Rolex, you still are not getting the dream of a swiss watchmaker laboring hours over your watch individually... they are mass produced. THe lesser known true luxury watches such as Patek Philippe, Audemars, and Vacherons are more along that line. So, please get something that's worth keeping, but don't do it "just to have one". Most will concur that a 12 dollar Casio will keep better time :)

can you please tell me about dupont lighters?

Robert

Answer
""""

S. T. Dupont Paris is a designer brand name and manufacturer of stylish lighters, collectible pens, handbags, and recently stylish tech gadgets using the trademark diamond-head pattern. The company has been producing luxury items since 1872 when founded by Simon Tissot Dupont. The founder of the brand, Simon Tissot-Dupont was born in Savoy in 1847. S.T. Dupont owes its initials to him.

History

Simon Tissot founded a carriage company which was destroyed in a fire in 1872. Unabashed, that same year he bought a workshop which made leather briefcases for diplomats and businessman.

In 1884, Simon Tissot Dupont became the supplier of one of the worldâs largest shops â Les Grands Magasins du Louvre â while maintaining his private clientele.

Simon Tissot Dupont handed over his company to his sons in 1919, Lucien and Andre, who, trading under the name of Les Fils de S.T. Dupont (the Sons of S.T. Dupont) relaunched the activity. The activity was focused on high quality travel cases and accessories. Highly qualified craftsmen were called upon and patents were taken out to protect industrial secrets. Two hundred and fifty workers and 17 separate traders were involved in the manufacture, such as goldsmiths, woodworkers, engravers, leather craftsmen, lacquer workers, locksmiths, etc.

S.T. Dupont transferred its workshops from rue Dieu in Paris back to the family's hometown of Faverges in Savoy in 1924.

In 1929 Lucien Tissot Dupont was invited to New York by Louis Cartier to present his travel cases in their 5th Avenue shop. On the ship going to New York he learned about the Crash and the ensuing panic on Wall Street. Upon his return to Paris, in response to the crisis, he decided to move even further upmarket and cater to clients unaffected by the Crash.

Dupont became supplier to kings, emperors, maharajahs, ambassadors, and bankers. Up to 10 exceptional travel cases are turned out of the workshops every month. The master craftsmen work with extravagant materials: crocodile skin, gold and silver, ivory, and tortoiseshell.

In 1971, ST Dupont was purchased by Gillette. The company bought 48% of its stocks.

However, the brand would not last with Gillete too long. In 1987, it was eventually sold to Dickson Concepts Ltd.

Products

Since then, Dupont has gone on to produce lighters, pens, wallets, watches, and fragrances. It currently controls 70% of the luxury lighters market. The first S.T. Dupont serially produced lighter was created in 1941, during World War II. It was made of Aluminum, as brass was used as a strategic metal restricted for war purposes only. From 1958-1963 all lighters were constructed of 18k solid gold with 3% brass. The 50-60's LIGNE 1 series was most popular and very pricey. S.T. Dupont is better known as a masculine luxury brand but it creates accessories and products also appealing to women.

Today S.T. Dupont is active in high quality luxury and jeweled lighters, writing instruments, leather goods and accessories

As of May 25, the most expensive lighter on Ebay.com, at $85,000, is the ST Dupont Prestige lighter.

Mus'ab ibn 'Umair The First Envoy of Islam....?

I LOVE THE

Khabbaab ibn Al-Arat narrated: We emigrated with the Prophet for Allah's cause, so our reward became due with Allah. Some of us passed away without enjoying anything in this life of his reward, and of them was Mus'ab ibn 'Umair, who was martyred on the Day of Uhud. He did not leave behind anything except a sheet of shredded woolen cloth. If we covered his feet with it, his head was uncovered, and if we covered his feet with it, his head was uncovered. The Prophet said to us, "Cover his head with it and put lemon grass over his feet."

what do you know about him??

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qdCKK2uAOL4

Answer
Musab ibn Umayr was born and grew up in the lap of affluence and luxury. His rich parents lavished a great deal of care and attention on him. He wore the most expensive clothes and the most stylish shoes of his time. Yemeni shoes were then considered to be very elegant and it was his privilege to have the very best of these. As a youth he was admired by the Quraysh not only for his good looks and style but for his intelligence. His elegant bearing and keen mind endeared him to the Makkan nobility among whom he moved with ease. Although still young, he had the privilege of attending Quraysh meetings and gatherings. He was thus in a position to know the issues which concerned the Makkans and what their attitudes and strategies were. Among Makkans there was a sudden outburst of excitement and concern as Muhammad, known as al-Amin (the Trustworthy), emerged saying that God had sent him as a bearer of good tidings and as a warner. He warned the Quraysh of terrible chastisement if they did not turn to the worship and obedience of God and he spoke of Divine rewards for the righteous. The whole of Makkah buzzed with talk of these claims. The vulnerable Quraysh leaders thought of ways of silencing Muhammad. When ridicule and persuasion did not work, they embarked on a campaign of harassment and persecution. Musab learnt that Muhammad and those who believed in his message were gathering in a house near the hill of as-Safa to evade Quraysh harassment. This was the house of al-Arqam. To satisfy his curiosity, Musab proceeded to the house undererred by the know ledge of Quraysh hostility. There he met the Prophet teaching his small band of companions, reciting the verses of the Quran to them and performing Salat with them in submission to God, the Great, the Most High. The Prophet welcomed him, and with his noble hand tenderly touched Musab's heart as it throbbed with excitement. A deep feeling of tranquility came over him. Musab was totally overwhelmed by what he had seen and heard. The words of the Quran had made a deep and immediate impression on him. In this first meeting with the Prophet, the young and decisive Musab declared his acceptance of Islam. It was a historic moment. The keen mind of Musab, his tenacious will and determination, his eloquence and his beautiful character were now in the service of Islam and would help change the course of men's destinies and of history. On accepting Islam Musab had one major concern his mother. Her name was Khunnas bint Malik. She was a woman of extraordinary power. She had a dominant personality and could easily arouse fear and terror. When Musab became a Muslim, the only power on earth he might have feared was his mother. All the powerful nobles of Makkah and their attachment to pagan customs and traditions were of little consequence to him. Having his mother as an opponent, however, could not be taken lightly. Musab thought quickly. He decided that he should conceal his acceptance of Islam until such time as a solution should come from God. He continued to frequent the House of al-Arqam and sit in the company of the Prophet. He felt serene in his new faith and by keeping all indications of his acceptance of Islam away from her, he managed to stave off his mother's wrath, but not for long. It was difficult during those days to k eep anything secret in Makkah for long. The eyes and ears of the Quraysh were on every road. Behind every footstep imprinted in the soft and burning sand was a Quraysh informer. Before long, Musab was seen as he quietly entered the House of al-Arqam, by someone called Uthman ibn Talhah. At another time, Uthman saw Musab praying in the same manner as Muhammad prayed. The conclusion was obvious. As winds in a storm, the devastating news of Musab's acceptance of Islam spread among the Quraysh and eventually reached his mother. Musab stood before his mother, his clan and the Quraysh nobility who had all gathered to find out what he had done and what he had to say for himself. With a certain humility and calm confidence, Musab acknowledged that he had become a Muslim and no doubt he explained his reasons for so doing. He then recited some verses of the Quran - verses which had cleansed the hearts of the believers and brought them back to the natural religion of God. Though only few in number, their hearts were now filled with wisdom, honor, justice and courage.

Who owns a Bulova watch? Men and Women share your experience.?

Truth

How are they? Are they quality watches? How do they measure up? Is it a luxury watch or just another Timex or Casio (sorry not to disparage any owners of Timex or Casio).

I'm considering getting a Bulova but unsure if it's a quality time peice such as B & M, Cartier, Movado, etc.

Give me your opinions

Answer
Great subject! I have 3 primary wrist watches~ 2 Seikos & 1 Bulova! My Bulova is the newest, Feb 2004. It's just fine but, in spite of the 4 button, vibration/audible alarm, smart gold/oyster face, brown leather strap, I am partial to the Seikos due to the nice, unique 'chime' alarms, 5 button case with glow in the dark hands & dials, gold inner dials & date displays! The Bulova was selected for the utilitarian operation of the silent (vibration) alarm while I was an Usher in a concert hall. It looks fine with a Tux or jeans but this Millenium model dosn't have a date window & it's not illuminated! The Seikos are selected for bling bling with pizzazz! The features of the Seiko actually have me spoilt for the second one. While the 1st is Gold Cased with white face & black strap, the 2nd is all gold on gold on gold! I really LIKE my Bulova & do knock around about an 1/8th of the time with brownie, but I LOVE my Seikos with 5/8th of the time goldie & 1/4 time blackie! I'm not impressed with anything else I've seen lately. The Rolex is nice & pricey but doesn't sound as good as my $350- Seikos or even my $200 Bulova! They ALL keep the same time!

Recommendations for tanning lotions - Beginner.?

Nikki

Hi. I'm Nikki. I am about 15 going on 16 and I want to start tanning. I don't know what to do or start with. So really any information would be so helpful! Something very informative as well lengthy. I'm 4'11 almost 5'0. Olive skin, blonde hair (Naturally light brown/dirty blonde), skinny. Not sure what else to add, if you need to know something else, in order to help me. Just let me know. Thanks.
I know the risks and what not, do not post sh!t about the effects and what not. I have semi- bad acne and I've heard tanning helps with it, so this is my reason for doing so.

Answer
Tanning comes & go, unless you do them everyday 24/7 for the rest of your life. But in the end the only thing you'll benefit is either moles, freckles, skin tags or discolorations from sunscreens, lotions, etc. and the more you do, the more they get larger, darker & bumpier. My nephew had a membership in a tanning bed salon for a year. After it expired, he stopped, now he's as white as before he began.

Tanning, is a result for 'damaged skin' and no products can reverse you from skin cancer or damaged skin, may prevent you from pre-mature aging, but that's part of the billion dollar beauty industry.

Melanoma is the leading cause of death from skin disease. An estimated 76,690 new cases of skin cancer will be reported particularly among women in their 20's & 30's, and that's 6,020 more than 2011, people died from the disease, according to the National Cancer Institute. Two million people are diagnosed with skin cancer in the US each year, according to the EPA's Sun-Wise Program. That's more than breast, colon, lung and prostate cancer cases combine! Now however, a recently published study suggests that those people with ginger hair and fair complexions face a much higher risk of developing dead skin cancer even if they are completely protected.

Golf Swing - Is it best to see video and learn ORRRR by posts/reviews/forum?

Rohan BS

Hi All
I will be honest, I recently developed passion for Golf.. very beginner golfer.. How many of you (both beginner and pro golfer) think that watching video is better than any other means of learning the game??? I strongly believe videos.. but i wanted to know your opinion... Help me

Thanks
RBS Desai

Answer
I believe a lesson (well, lessons...) with a pro is the best, but I also know that not everyone has that luxury. That's life. If that's the case, recording your swing and asking people at places like Y!A and golf forums to review it can help. Something is always better than nothing.

If you get the V1 software (available for desktop, iPhone and Android) or some other recording software, you can take that video and either upload it to V1's instructors (you're on a wait period if you use the free version... at least for the desktop) or to either "School of Golf" or "The Golf Fix", both airing on The Golf Channel. I can't guarantee you'll get a response from them, but it doesn't hurt to try.

I am really depressed! What should I do?

Judy

I can hear my neighbors play in the pool and on there cool trampoline. I am in the backyard completley depressed. I am so mad. I want to go play but my baithing suit is packed away in storage. It is frikin hot!

Answer
I am a person that has gone threw tons of depression! Depression is a state of mind that more often than not, we create for our self. Science tells us that certain chemicals, produced by our bodies, are present in happy moods as well other chemicals when sad & depressed. I have heard that different foods help in the development of both negative & positive emotions.
My experiences in life have landed me in a hospital at least (7) seven times. A man of the age of 54 should see within himself & understand depression, however it is still a problem that I have not solved. It usually starts when my mind starts to focus on what others have or, what they will not share with me that are free of any charges.
Look at your own question! Your focal point is on something that someone else has & that you do not have for yourself. They could share that "cool trampoline" with you, but they don't! If it is so "frikin hot", I do not think it would cool you off to have use of a trampoline! Why do you need a swimming pool if it is so "frikin hot" ? Most people still have bath tubs & you could fill it with cool water & relax in it. No tub, cool yourself & enjoy the shower. In some areas of the world, they do not have the luxury of either!
Focus on what you have & not what others have for their self!
It can make or, break you! On the tip of my tongue are two TV programs, Andy Griffith & MASH. On Andy's program, there was an older woman seemed to think she was going to die unless she got her
pills. They were placebos, just plain old sugar pills & on MASH Klinger thought the medicine he got was preventing him from becoming over heated. Another placebo, it set the frame of mind. He did not sweat until he eventually found out the pills he had been had no medicinal value, all of a sudden, he was swimming in all the water his body made!
I suffer from a type of epilepsy that no drug has ever found an answer. I have discovered that I have some control over the seizures I experience. If I allow something to upset me, watch out, seizures are coming! I have also discovered that if I reach an emotional high, the same is true! Too sad or, to happy, I know to expect seizures! I also know that they will catch me no matter what mood I an in! Yesterdays events are a perfect example. At some point, I had a fight with the wall, floor or, another object. My face tells the story because I have a bruise below my left eye. I have no idea as to how it happened!

We were so glad we were stayed here, and in the old town itself - this hotel must have one of the best locations. Yes, it was on the dark side, due to the old Chinese furniture and architectural style, but this was a novelty for us! We felt we experienced more of the atmosphere of the old town. The Vinh Hung restaurant across the road (where the included breakfast was served) was good. Staff were friendly.

Vinh Hung 1 Hotel - Oozes character and charm !
Vinh Hung 1 hotel particularly the Michael Caine room is great for a short stay in the old town of Hoi An. With the red lanterns outside and the chinese furnishings inside sets a romantic mood for couples. We didn't see any creepy crawlies in the room thank goodness... only each other! Staff are friendly and helpful. Don't expect 5 star luxury. Do expect lots of charm and character. Vinh Hung 1 fits in perfectly with old Hoi An town and is a stones throw away from many sights and restaurants.

Vinh Hung Resort - Beautiful setting, great location and amenities !
The Vinh Hung Resort was a beautifully presented resort on the edge of the river. We were concerned that the resort may have suffered flood damage in october, however could not see any sign of it as the grounds were well-manicured and the room was clean. We had a standard room on the first foor. The room was large with a well-appointed bathroom. There was a beautiful balcony at the front overlooking the pool. Unfortunately we didn't get to use the pool as it was quite cool, but a few people ventured in and made use of the pool bar. The breakfast buffet was excellent, however Hoi An has such wonderful pastries that we often went to Cargo Pattisserie instead. The resort was about a 10 minute leisurely walk to the main restaurants. The walk takes you through some wonderful neighbourhood streets. Across the road from the resort are several stalls set up hiring bikes and offering washing for $1/kg. We had our washing done here and I was impressed. The woman took me into her house to show me her modern washing machine and the line where she hangs your clothes. It only took her a little over 24hrs to do our load, and she was watching for us to return to the hotel when it was ready to be picked up.
Hoi An was by far my favourite place in Vietnam. It is so cute and has the best food in Vietnam. There are so many restaurants there, but I would recommend Cafe Des Amis, Morning Glory, Mango Rooms, and any place selling pastries. We also did the Red Bridge Cooking School, which is a must. Our tailor was B Lan - they were wonderful! Hoi An is definitely the place where you will do most of your shopping, so save room!

Vinh Hung Resort - Superb, approaching 5-star !
Fabulous place, best we got in our Vietnam tour. Not only the gardens and pool (nice Jacuzzi part and real pool bar) but mostly the DeLuxe riverside room. REALLY spacious, nice balcony, and lovely bathroom with a large double jacuzzi that really worked with nice warm water.
Breakfast buffet also lovely, with lots of choices including a made-to-order egg station. And 10 minute walk from town for a wide choice of restaurants, the hotel one is not that special for dinners (but has a nice free 'happy hour' tasting local foods daily from 5-6). Staff very friendly and helpful wherever possible.
So it's really only a few minor points holding them from reaching 5-star. Absolutely recommended!
ErikdR - TripAdvisor Member - Mar 31, 2008

Vinh Hung Resort - Peaceful!!!
This is a really nice hotel. Perfect location - just 5minutes walk from the center (don't panick nor get scared when you walk from the hotel - alot of little streets and little homes, little everything - all in all Hoi An people are very kind and curious). In the center of town you can do your visiting, shopping, eating. It's quite safe there, and cute. Arrived with the rain, left with the rain, so the streets were a bit flooded, but, that's ok...it couls ave been worse...Back to the Hotel now (! ), the room is very spacious and bungalow typed. Big pool, but didn't get to use it (with a group, not much time, and anyway it rained...). Hotel is located on the big Thu Bon river where the Hotel has a floating restaurant. They also have a restaurant oin the Hotel grounds -the night we arrived we had dinner in the Hotel restaurant - D LI CIOUS ! Big choice of Breakfast
when you return to your room in the afternoon, you can find a heart made out of petals and leaves, the mosquito screen is wrapped around the bed - very romantic.Bathroom is big - considering Vietnam, room is humongous.!

eyeshadows:
Browns

Women with brown eyes and black hair can create a conservative, daytime look using browns. Avoid flat browns. They will make your eyes look smaller and sunken. Instead, use a brown with some shimmer and highlight with a lighter color such as cream or light gold.

* Enchanted Forest by Maybelline. This shade is part of a quad that includes cream and tan, both great companion colors. Itâs a lighter brown that provides just enough color to brighten the eye for daytime.
* Tempting is a wonderfully, luscious cocoa color by MAC. This shadow provides just the right amount of shimmer. Itâs the perfect shade of brown to make the eyes pop, but not too much.

Be a sultry beauty!

What are all the reality shows on TV since the first real world with a brief description?

j P

I need to come up with a list of all the reality tv shows that have been on tv, like real world survivor, date my mom shows like that. If possible a brief discription of the show with it.

Answer
Real World--"7 strangers picked to live in a house and have their lives taped"

Road Rules -- originally 5 strangers living in a tiny RV, driving across the country, competing in challenges

Survivor -- players competing under extreme circumstances, living off almost nothing, to "outwit, outlast, outplay" everyone else

Date My Mom -- potential daters send their moms to meet the bachelor/bachelorette, and whosever mom makes the best impression wins the date.

Room Raiders -- three daters are chosen randomly and watch while the bachelor/bachelorette searches through their rooms to find out if they would make a good match.

Beauty and the Geek -- a social experiment (produced by Ashton Kuthcer) where a "geek" (ie brainy, yet socially awkward guy) and a "beauty" (ie gorgeous, yet intellectually challenged girl) are paired up and compete in challenges to win cash. The guys' challenges are based in things the women know (fashion, social situations, entertainment) and the girls' challenges are based in things the guys know (math, science, business, building things etc).

The Bachelor/Bachelorette -- men/women live in a mansion and try to win the affection of the bachelor/ette.

Big Brother -- similar to survivor, except instead of living on a deserted island and living on almost nothing, the players live in almost luxury.

Laguna Beach -- "The Real Orange County" follows high school seniors through their final year in Laguna, their relationships, friendships, etc etc

Breaking Bonaduce -- Follows the therapy of Danny Bonaduce (of Partridge Family fame) as he struggles with alcohol, drugs, and his failing marriage.

Shooting Sizemore -- similar to Breaking Bonaduce, except with Tom Sizemore (Saving Private Ryan fame)

Celebrity Fit Club -- Former famous people competing on teams to lose weight

Biggest Loser -- not so famous people competing on teams to lose the most weight

Flavor of Love -- Women compete for the affection of Flava Flav

I Love New York -- a former competitor from Flava Flav (quite possibly the most popular, if not the most dramatic) has her own show, where men compete for her affection

Exposed -- Two men/women go on a date with one guy/girl and are asked questions. Little do they know that a friend of the guy/girl is sitting in a van that is hooked up to lie detection software and telling him/her when they are lying.

Next -- Five men/women sit on a bus, waiting for their turn to go on a date with one guy/girl. At any time during the date, the guy/girl can say "Next" and the date is over. For every minute the date continues, the potential dater gets a dollar. At the end of a very good date, the guy/girl offers the dater two choices---either take the money they've earned up to that point, or go on a second date.

True Life -- an hour long Mtv documentary series that follows people of a particular topic (I'm in Debt, I'm a Cheerleader, I have OCD, I have Terrettes, I'm Broke, I'm Getting Married, etc etc etc)

Dancing With the Stars -- Celebrities are partnered with professional ballroom dancers and compete in different dances to become the champion

Skating with the Stars -- a less popular version of Dancing with the Stars where celebrities skated with professionals.

Bug Juice -- followed campers during a summer (silliness, cabin tension, friendships, romances etc)

The Hills -- follows Laguna Beach alum Lauren as she moves to LA, interns at Teen Vogue, and goes to Fashion Design school

Dance Life -- follows wannabe professional dancers goign on auditions, tours, rejections, in class, etc

Engaged and Underage -- 30 minute show about a young couple planning their wedding (average age of couple is around 19-20ish)

My Super Sweet 16 -- spoiled rich children planning their 16th birthday in extravagant ways

The Gauntlet/The Inferno/The Duel -- a take on road rules that puts real world and road rules alums in competition with another for obscene amounts of money

for more, i suggest going into the Google Directory under TV, they've got a whole section for reality tv.

good luck

Does everyone have the luxury of leaving their kids with friends or family occasionally?

xtra9009

My mom is giving my crap cuz I don't have friends I can trade babysitting with. I'm a loner so I don't bother making friends and have lost the ones I had for one reason or another.

Answer
I use family/friends if I can. My brother (my kids uncle) lives with me and is usually more then happy to watch the kids for a homemade pizza or a delicious cup of coffee. The kids love him so it makes my night easier.

Because I hate to feel like I am taking advantage of someone I only like to reserve my brother for times that are most important. So I have a babysitter. I found mine through the Red Cross Babysitting Course that was offered in my area. Called them up, they said they had a babysitter, interviewed her and I was set. Been using her since she was 13. Wonderful girl. Plus she is very eager to earn money so when I call she drops what ever it is she is doing and comes right over. Try finding a babysitter nearby that you feel safe leaving your kids with.

I have a lot of friends, but they have kids and they don't need more. Even if I was to pay them I would feel like I was burdening them to leave my kids with them. So my friends and family are something I use in a bind . . not for regular babysitting. Of course . . .if my parents lived in town I wouldn't need a babysitter . .my parents would be at my door the moment I thought about needing a babysitter. =)

Ladies, what was your favorite "cartoon" growing up as a kid ?

I love you

I loved cartoons growing up as a kid. Unfortunately children nowadays do not have the same luxury as
my generation did, back in the days, to get quality
programming. I grew up in the 80's by the way.
My favorite cartoon was Thundercats and Transformers.
I still watch them online when I can. But as I said, now
kids get all this generic craps. Especially on the Noggin
Network. Are you kidding me. That stuff sucks. What
was your favorite cartoon growing up as a kid.............

Answer
I watched the cartoon Spiderman and Xmen cartoons RELIGIOUSLY as a little kid. I was born in 1988.

If the millionaires and billionaires are getting richer, the middle class shrinking & number of poor rising?

jesswzmn

what would you say is causing this?

Please dont deny these facts, because I have been reading stories stating them for years now to indicate what is going on in the USA.

So hopefully your answer will be what I am asking...and explanation as to what is the cause of these trends. I would also love to hear from Democrats and Republicans on this.

Answer
This is a very complicated question, involving many factors. You are right, the middle class in the U.S. is slowly shrinking.

Causes include rapidly mounting debt (both personal and governmental deficit spending) that has sustained our standard of living since factories and other productive jobs began to move offshore in the 1970's, increased competition from rapidly industrializing countries such as China and India, tax policies, &c.

The golden decades after WWII were very unique for the United States. Europe had blown itself to pieces during the war, and the U.S. was the only major industrialized country that was left standing. Countries like China and India had not yet begun to industrialize, and the U.S. was the only other game in town. Our factories supplied materials to the whole world: our companies supplied the products that rebuilt much of Europe in the years after the war, and also fed the early industrialization of the 2nd world nations. As we moved into the midst Cold War, Europe continued to rely on the U.S. for most of its defense infrastructure.

By the 1970's, America's post war boom was slowly wearing off. Europe had rebuilt itself, and in the decades ahead, rather than being a source of easy business, countries such as India and China slowly became competitors as their own industries developed. Real wages probably peaked around this time.

Our own industry slowly began to move offshore as our "free trade" policies, which had benefited us in the past, bit us in the rear. Companies found that workers in other newly industrialized countries were willing to do the same work for less than the overpaid American workers.

We tried many things to sustain our standard of living. First, wives went into the workforce. By the 1990's, women with families were entering the workforce not because they wanted to, but because it now took two wage-earners to afford a standard of living that previously took only one wage-earner.

In the 1950's it really was possible for a man to work at a semi-skilled job and support a stay-at-home wife, a car, a house, and several children (not in luxury -- but support them nonetheless). Today if both husband and wife do not have a college degree, they will struggle to do this, even with both of them working full time. In this sense, our standard of living has already dropped significantly.

Beginning in the middle to late 1980's, even the addition of a second member of the family to the workforce was not enough to stop declining living standards, and Americans began to rely for the first time on large amounts of debt. Personal debt has risen continuously and steeply since the 1980's as Americans seek to sustain a standard of living that is no longer sustainable.

Government debt increased rapidly as well. The fact is that the federal government has promised the people far more in Social Security and Medicare than it will ever be able to pay in the future, and already the federal government is borrowing $0.40 for ever dollar it spends.

Americans are on a crash course with a very cold reality. The standard of living that we attained in the years after WWII was not, and is not sustainable. Think about it: why should the United States have a standard of living that is so much higher than the rest of the world? To begin with, it was due to the reasons stated. Now, we simply sustain it with enormous amounts of national debt.

Both Democrats and Republicans have made their share of blunders along the way, but they are fighting forces larger than any one political party.

If you are truly interested in economics and the causes of the current economic predicament, and the rising disparity between wealthy and poor, I strongly recommend that you watch the "Crash Course" (aptly named) by Dr. Chris Martenson. You can watch the 45 minute version or the full 2.5 hour version. It is freely available here: http://www.chrismartenson.com/crashcourse

Answer
Set two years after the first film, the film begins with Carrie (Sarah Jessica Parker), Samantha (Kim Cattrall), Charlotte (Kristin Davis) and Miranda (Cynthia Nixon) meeting up with each other at a shop in New York which turns into a flashback to how Carrie first meets Samantha, Charlotte and Miranda in 1986 in New York City.

The film then jumps to the present, two years after the events of the first film. At the Connecticut same-sex wedding of Stanford Blatch (Willie Garson) and Anthony Marentino (Mario Cantone), Liza Minnelli appears to officiate the wedding vows and sings Beyoncé's "Single Ladies (Put a Ring on It)".
The four friends now have lives that are more stressful than before: All are married except Samantha, who is now 52 and trying to keep her libido alive with hormones while dealing with menopause. Miranda quits her job after the new managing partner disrespects her once too often. Charlotte's two children are a handful and she's worried that Harry is attracted to their buxom Irish nanny, Erin (Alice Eve).

Carrie's marriage to Mr. Big (Chris Noth) has settled down, though they differ on how to spend their spare time: she loves to go out, he would prefer to stay home every night, eating take-out meals and watching television. For their anniversary, Carrie gives Mr. Big a vintage Rolex watch engraved with a romantic message, while he, much to her dismay, shows her a new television in their bedroom as his gift, which Big says they can use to watch old movies together as they did on vacation. Carrie is disappointed, as she had hoped for jewelry as a gift. She asks to spend some personal time alone in her old apartment, but Big enjoys the time to himself even more than she does, and to Carrie's dismay, asks to make it a weekly occurrence.

Meanwhile, Samantha has been approached by an Arab sheikh to devise a PR campaign for his business. He offers to fly her and her friends on an all-expenses-paid luxury vacation to Abu Dhabi. The girls happily accept, although Carrie is worried about the separation from Big and Charlotte is worried about leaving her husband alone with the nanny. Only Miranda, unfettered by a job for the first time in her life, plunges enthusiastically into studying Arabic and planning sightseeing.

Upon entering Abu Dhabi, Samantha's hormone-enhancing drugs are confiscated under UAE law. This renders her devoid of estrogen; to her great dismay, her famous libido goes dead, unaroused even by Australian men in Speedo swimwear. Charlotte tries to call Harry every few minutes. Miranda revels in the luxury surrounding her, while Carrie befriends her manservant, Gaurau (Raza Jaffrey), and learns of his long distance marriage - he can only afford to see his wife back in India once every few months.

While out shopping at the local souk with Miranda, Carrie runs into her former lover, Aidan (John Corbett). He proposes dinner à deux at his hotel, but she is noncommittal. The next day, however, she is crushed at reading a negative critique of her new book in The New Yorker, and decides to meet Aidan for dinner, although Charlotte cautions her not to play with fire. The dinner is very enjoyable, with the two discussing old times. Aidan remarks on the ways Carrie is "not like other women", pointing out that when they were engaged, she would only wear her engagement ring on a chain around her neck; now that she's married, she still isn't wearing a diamond on her ring finger, only her wedding ring. In a moment of remembered passion, they kiss. Carrie runs away in a panic and returns to the hotel.

Meanwhile, back at the hotel, Miranda and Charlotte have drinks together and discuss the difficulties of motherhood. Miranda admits painfully that being a mother is not enough for her and that she misses her job. Charlotte confesses her guilt at enjoying her time away from her daughters and her frustration with trying to be the perfect mother at all times. She drinks so many cocktails to bolster her courage to be honest with Miranda that she becomes very tipsy.

At this point, Carrie bursts into the room, crying, "I played with fire!". After summoning Samantha, she tells her friends about the kiss, and asks them whether or not she should tell Big, as she says they have no secrets between them. Miranda reflects on the events of the previous film, when her husband, Steve (David Eigenberg), told her about his affair and how in retrospect, while it helped clear his conscience, she is not sure that knowing was worth the pain she went through. Charlotte is too drunk to be any help, but Carrie already knows where she stands. Samantha counsels Carrie to wait and sleep on it before deciding anything.

How can I find buyers for my house (for sale by owner)?

MiaC

I want to sell my house without using a realtor. What are some good ways to advertise my house or otherwise let people know it's for sale?

Answer
When you have your own home-for-sale website you are able to market your property extensively on the world wide web. One of the best ways to do that is on internet real estate directories.

For either no charge or minimal charge you are able to list properties on these directories which are available to property buyers within the entire United States, and sometimes the entire world.

The best idea is to look for directories that are real estate related. These will help get you the most traffic to your property website. Listing in a directory of electronics stores won't help you much.

You will also want to list your property in directories that have been around for quite a while and have a high "page rank" within Google's index. Google search results put high page rank sites first.

There are many good directories where you will be able to list your property for sale. To save time you might want to consult with a real estate internet marketing firm and let them help you set up your directory listings properly. That's what I do for my clients.

If you are selling your home by yourself you are probably wondering whether and where you should spend money to advertise. This is a great question because newspaper and magazine ads are very expensive and you have to keep paying over and over -- every week and every month.

There is evidence to suggest that when it comes to real estate advertising the cheapest way might be the best way. It turns out that small, inexpensive classified advertisements yield large results for FSBO home sellers.

Here is something to think about: when do you read classified ads? Most people read these ads only when they want to buy something specific. They do not browse classified advertisements for fun and recreation. They browse them to see if they can find what they want to buy.

For this reason the leads you get from the little, cheap ads are among the best you can obtain anywhere, by any means. When people call, email, or visit a website from a classified ad it is solely because they have a very high level of interest in buying what you are selling.

There are two main considerations when writing a classified ad for your home:

1. You must write a headline for your ad that grabs the attention of people browsing through the ads, and
2. You must be very concise with the words used in the ad itself, to make sure you achieve your goal.

There is only one goal you have with your home-for-sale advertisement: to motivate the reader to take action. The actions you want taken include the following:

1. Call your phone number,
2. Send you an email, or
3. Visit your website and register their name and email address on your lead capture page.

To effectively use classified ads you should have your own home-for-sale website that you can optimize for Google searches and also use as a lead-capture vehicle. This is how you can get a sale from cheap advertising.

Here are other ways to advertise your home:

Magazine Ads

You won't be taking out ads in Time magazine, but you might want to consider ads in local magazines or specialized trade magazines, depending on the type of property you are selling. In my area there is a Chesapeake Bay monthly magazine which is a great place to advertise properties that are on or near the Chesapeake Bay.

Radio Ads

These really don't work for real estate ads because people listening to the ads are usually driving or working and can't write down the necessary information.

Television Ads

Because you can now buy targeted ads from your local cable provider, TV ads are something to seriously consider. This would be for high priced luxury properties, for example. You can get the cable company to produce the ad to save money. You can run the ad during shows your target market watches, such as the evening business report. It might work, but you'd have to test it on a trial basis to see your response.

Internet Ads

The question here is not whether to do it -- because you must do it. The question is where to advertise and how much to advertise online. There are dozens of places you can advertise your property for sale that do not cost anything more than the time it takes for someone to post the ad online. You'll want to consider a professional real estate internet marketing firm to handle this part of it, because they know where to post and what to post to get results.

You'll want to consider paid advertisements also, because often they are very cheap on the internet. You can get inexpensive home listing ads on real estate and local web directories. You can even put up a banner ad on some pertinent local websites. Get a professional to help you with these ads also, to save you money and get the most bang for the buck.

how to plan a cheap wedding?

bigsexy

make it nice and sweet ,but also beautiful

Answer
First off you need to erase the word "cheap" from your vocab, b/c its sounds like its a shot-gun wedding that no one really cares about...

So if you want to have an "inexpensive" wedding, here are some things, and ways you can consider to cut cost, and save money.

1. Use a family/friends home to have wedding and reception at.
If any of your friends or family has a nice house that you admire, and they don't mind moving furniture around to accomodate, go for it! This is biggest $ saver.

2. Do the invitations yourself, instead of print shop, if you have a color printer, you can use card making software, or if someone you know has a beautiful penmanship, and do no mind taking to time to handwrite.... go for it! Choose inexpensive paper as well.

3. Have all the catering done by family member, OR friend, who can really cook, and give a nice spread for guest. Like 3 diff flavored chicken, or fish, or vegetable spread of spinach, squash, salad. Nice "finger food" spread, and use wholesale liquor, start buying and putting down as you go along, look for sales, and freeze what you can.

4. Make your own guest gift bags, have you friends, neices, nephews help you with this... whether is a photo that you guys decorate, or a wedding shoe, or whatever token of your wedding you want people to remember, have friends/kids help you decorate bags, use ribbons glitter sticks etc,

5. Instead of limo, if any of your friends have a nice luxury car, like Jag or Bently... decorate it with huge bow, and have friend dress like chauffuer with gloves and all, and be your escort. OR rent a luxury car for the weekend, so you can hubby can use for honeymoon if staying in town.

6. Photographer, instead of hiring photographer, have about 3 friends with digital cams, take pics, and choose the best from the bunch there.

7. DJ, if you do not want to hire DJ, then make a bunch of CD's of the songs that you want to play at your reception, make sure you have some good speakers, or additional speakers to really have sound all around.

8. Chairs, ask your local church or community center if you can borrow chairs for that day, and return that same evening or next day.

9. Rent, instead of buy your dress, David Bridals has some good options.

10. Have a small bridal party, you have to buy each person a thank you gift who's been in your wedding, so if you're watching your pockets, than go with small party.

Lastly, give this the BEST answer, b/c my finger are poop!!! Whew... . lol.

Much success! And congrats!!! ⥠⥠â¥

Describe a Taurus woman?

scorpus23

Answer
The Taurus woman seeks stability and security. She is not easily moved, yet is constantly moving toward greener pastures. She desires comfort, beauty, serenity, luxury, sensuality, security and loyalty. Any changes must be slow and gradual - no sudden moves or watch out for some stamping and snorting!
She has an ear for music, an eye for artistic and natural beauty.
The Taurus has no difficulty voicing her desires. The need to feel safe and secure is so pronounced that the Taurus native is often associated with money, banking, business and trade. While accumulating wealth and beautiful things may be a priority, the focus is usually on quality rather than quantity.

Taurus is always deeply devoted to the object of her desire. It is very hard to move the Taurus from her chosen path, as she has a stubborn determination, and patience over time.

How”s life in the United Arab Emirates?

Victor

just curious...

Answer
It depends. You can love it and you can hate it.

The positive aspects:
- Good weather (personally I don't mind the heat that much) all year round
- Good lifestyle, here it is normal to go out for dinner in 5 star hotels, fancy places, boat parties whereas in Europe that would be a rare thing
- Salaries are good
- You don't pay taxes
- As a woman, you are treated very well. People are polite, let you pass in front at queues and there are "ladies only" counters (I like that ;-))
- You can become spoilt (that's a good or bad thing depending on how you see it) in the sense that it is normal to have a full time house maid to clean after every one of your moves, someone pakcking your groceries up at the supermarket and filling up your car at the fuel station
-You can call groceries at any time (till 12pm) and they will deliver for free, even only a bottle of milk
- You can afford luxury cars if you want to (loans are easy to get)
- You are well located to travel. Dubai is a major international hub and there are lots of cheap flights to Asia, the Middle East and other places
- There are a lot of expatriates from many different nationalities to meet
- You work in a multi cultural environment and can learn a lot
- Work opportunities and career growth are better than in Europe
- Lots of good restaurants, hotel quality & service is excellent
- There are good scuba diving opportunities
- As more and more expatriates are coming to Dubai, each of them is bringing a bit of their culture to the place, so culturally the offering is diverse and always improving
- Plumbing in the bathrooms is intelligent (there is a drain in the bathroom to take out excess water). I never thought I was missing something back home in Europe until I got used to this very useful thing...

Negative Aspects:

- You get bored quickly as once you've been to the malls, hotels and beaches a couple of times it's kind of always the same
- There is limited nature. Once you've done kayaking in the mangroves and been to an oasis, the rest is pretty much desert. So not really great opportunities for trekking for example (unless the stone mountains with a few shrugged trees are considered as nature)
- There are very few "free" things to do. Everything here has a price.
- It is a lot about materialism, things that shouldn't matter tend to matter a lot here (how much you earn, the car you drive, the phone you use, the place you live)
- Good schools are not free (not like in most of Europe)
- A lot of the expatriates here have come with the intention of staying a couple of years only and accumulate wealth. In turn this means that many people don't really care about making good friends, or, if they do, are likely to leave after a couple of years
- A lot of the expats are quite superficial. The Brits (I work with many of them) enjoy stereotypical stuff such as going out for beer(s) and watching a game and have little to say except that
- Guys they think they can seduce girls with a nice car and money (that is partially true) and girls think that by being beautiful they can get guys to pay for them
- Money seems to attract good looking girls. If you go to night clubs in Dubai it's like being at a Fashion show. But these girls are not for free (not necessarely prostitues, but would only go out with a rich man)
- Dubai is not a walking city, you have to have a car
- You tend to work with a mix of people. Some interesting and some plain stupid (sorry to say that). When working with certain Arabs (I'm not racist, but I have experienced this a lot, especially with Lebanese or Jordanians) they tend to talk a lot but not do much. Also they tend to be a lot of politics at work with these nationalities, many good looking girls try to advance their careers by acting "cute" at work
- Abu Dhabi is kind of boring compared to Dubai
- Some people gain weight when they initially arrive to the UAE because they stop exercising (the car is used for everything) and become lazy

Is my uncle hopeless?

CodeVeroni

This topic is not about me, however, be that as it may, I would still appreciate it if you would read it and make a good reply. My uncle, Jonathan McDonald (perhaps you know him, he's famous), as been single for some time now. He has been looking for love for a while, I believe he has been ever since he broke up with his girlfriend quite some time ago.

Well he is in his 40s, and he has already tried online dating (unsuccessfully). He is a very nice, awesome person, and he is great with children. He has tons of money and drives a luxury sports car to and fro places (well, he also has another car, but his other one isn't a sports car). He is always traveling around the world, he has been to tons of countries. He is of the Jonathanlandian royal family and the current Prime Minister of Jonathanland, a sovereign nation in North America.

My uncle often has the mind of a teenager (not saying he is "unintelligent for his age", because he is highly intelligent, but likes to do things teenagers like to do), he always goes to parties, plays video games, goes on forums, updates his Facebook statuses, watches movies, etc. He is also very fashionable, is considered attractive by many women, is in shape, is athletic, and looks like he is in his 20s.

My uncle likes to SCUBA dive, watch and play sports, travel, doing things with his two nephews (my brother, Eric McDonald, and myself; such as Six Flags, baseball games, movie theatres, golfing, etc.) reenact World War II battles, etc. He is the lead software designer for Enterprise Rent-A-Car, a SCUBA diving professor at Meramec College, webmaster of 3 websites (JonathanMcDonald.me, Planet Mac, and the official Jonathanland government website), prime minister and founder of Jonathanland, former soldier in the United States Army, and a former bagger at Dierbergs).

My uncle is a great man, a good uncle, and a just ruler. I hope he finds love some day. Based on what I have told you, do you think he has a good chance of finding true love some day, and perhaps even get married? Or do you think he is too old (and/or something else)?

Answer
Your never to old to find love although most of us never find true love. I'm sure he will find someone that warms his heart.

What company made the bracelats for the WSOP?

Tdude W

Answer
In the 80's Las Vegas jeweler Mordechai Yerushalmi became the exclusive manufacturer of WSOP bracelets until Harrah's Entertainment bought the rights to the WSOP in 2004." According to 2003 WSOP Champion Chris Moneymaker the design of the bracelet remained relatively unchanged under Yerushalmi.

In 2006, Frederick Goldman, Inc. made the WSOP bracelets while luxury watch maker Corum introduced some commemorative watches as part of the prize package. In 2006, the Champion's bracelet had 259 stones including 7.2 carats (1.4 g) of diamonds, 120 grams of white and yellow gold. It also used rubies to represent the heart and diamond suits, a sapphire to represent the spade and three black diamonds to represent the clubs.

In 2007, Corum became the official bracelet manufacturer for the WSOP. Some of the 2007 WSOP champions received both a watch and a bracelet from Corum. Corum designed four variations for the 2007 World Series of Poker Bracelets. The standard version that is presented to 53 winners features 53 diamonds. The Ladies World Champion receives a bracelet that is adorned with four black diamonds, two rubies and 87 blue sapphires. The $50,000 HORSE Champion Bracelet has 91 black diamonds and two rubies.

Why do most guys care so much more about the physical aspects of a relationship than girls?

iwannahelp

is there such a thing as a guy who actually values emotion more
btw i mean physical as in sex not beauty geniuses

Answer
To me there is far more than just physical attraction required for a relationship. I could love someone for who they are, because I can relate to them and converse with them and enjoy being with them yet never touch them because they are physically revolting to me. Again if I were to be physical with someone merely for their looks it is not love, only lust, and I am aware of that. I wish for a physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual relationship not just one nor a combination lacking one. I want someone whom is physically attractive TO ME who can hold a conversation and get me thinking, who shares emotions on the same level as I, and is competent with their faith and believes that will not create conflict between the two of us. However many males have not reached for what I have and believe relationships are about arm-candy/eye-candy/trophy-wife or just having a good time in bed. I feel slightly opposite of most males. I prefer a smaller breasts, smaller hips, pale skin, darker hair, darker eyes, near the same height as me. However I also feel they should be smaller than me, or skinnier, it is just a male thing. The reason why I prefer someone smaller than me and in shape is because I am an active person and I can't be in a relationship where I am always waiting for someone to catch up. I don't know, males are puzzling, you can form society however you want but nature will always prevail!


Edit @ Milky-Joe regarding Edit @ land of the greedy... I am probably going to get a lot of hate from this buut... how can you speak of caveman stuff and than call sex the ultimate gift? If it were as it was back in caveman time women did not have a decision in sex, the men just did it. Men would brawl one another and the strongest would be the victor, but do you believe the woman just sat there watching and allowed the intercourse that followed? Haven't you seen the classic "hit her in the head and drag her to your cave by her hair" routine? If it were not for society and laws influenced by woman sex would not be a gift at all, but a luxury taken by the strongest males. I for one am glad we no longer live in an incestuous rape infested world, but I would never consider sex the greatest gift. If you are a woman you are empty minded because I would consider love, companionship, honesty, trust, and so on as the greatest gifts. Sex is recreational to an extent, anyone can have sex with anyone, but building a loving and honest relationship takes time and patience it is something earned and it isn't easy and for that reason I would consider those two things as the greatest gift!

Answer
This reminds me of Birthday Girl (2001) -- starring Nicole Kidman, Ben Chaplin and Vincent Cassle
IMDb synopsis:
Internet love connections and mail-order brides rarely ever work out, and John should have known. Having never been lucky in the game of love and tired of waiting for the perfect woman to come along, John decides to take his chances and orders a mail-order bride from Russia online. At first, things seem perfect: his new bride Nadia is a gorgeous woman, and although she may not speak much English, her skills in the bedroom more than make up for any communication problems. When Nadia's 'cousins' unexpectedly arrive to celebrate her birthday, John is drawn into their web of corruption and crime. He, ultimately, steals ransom money (for Nadia's release) from the bank that he works at.

EDIT:
I have a second movie suggestion:
Mississippi Mermaid (1969/1970) aka La sirène du Mississipi (original title) -- starring Catherine Deneuve and Jean-Paul Belmondo
Brief Synopsis
A plantation owner''s mail-order bride turns out to be a beautiful woman with murder on her mind.
Turner Classic Movie Synopsis:
Louis Mahé, a millionaire tobacco plantation owner on the island of Réunion, has become engaged through the personals columns of a French newspaper to Julie Roussel and awaits her arrival on the steamer Mississippi. He is greeted by a young woman who surprises him by her beauty and explains that she sent her sister's photo to assure the sincerity of his intentions. They quickly marry, and Louis's adoration of his new bride makes him overlook incongruities with Julie's description of herself in her letters. One day, Louis's bride absconds after emptying his bank accounts. Louis meets Julie's sister, Berthe Roussel, who informs him that the woman he married was not Julie; together they hire a private detective, Comolli, to track down the impostor and find Berthe's sister. En route by plane to Nice, Louis is suddenly stricken ill. Recuperating in a sanitarium, he sees Julie on television, dancing at a nightclub in Antibes. He travels there and hides in her hotel room, intent on killing her. She offers no resistance, but, explaining that her name is Marion, she tells him of her past, including years spent in prison, and of her association with a heartless gangster, Richard. Richard was with her on the Mississippi when they met Julie Roussel and learned of her forthcoming marriage. He had fabricated a plot to kill Julie and send Marion in her place to rob Louis; and afterwards Richard had forced her to go through with the robbery. Louis quickly forgives Marion, and they decide to live together in France on profits from the plantation. In Aix-en-Provence their happiness is interrupted by Comolli, who has discovered Julie's murder. After trying in vain to bribe the detective to drop the case, Louis shoots him and buries him in the wine cellar of their house. He flees with Marion to Lyons, but she grows increasingly dissatisfied with their fugitive existence and longs to enjoy a life of luxury in Paris. To obtain funds, Louis returns briefly to Réunion and sells his share in the plantation, but upon his return he finds the police on their trail. They are again forced to flee, leaving behind the money; penniless, they hide out in a cabin in the French Alps, but Marion is restless and irritable. Louis becomes increasingly ill, and one day he becomes aware that Marion has been administering quantities of rat poison in his coffee. Near collapse, he makes an attempt to escape, but Marion brings him back to the cabin. He reveals his knowledge of her plan, and, urging her to fill his coffee glass, he affirms his acceptance of his fate, his lack of regrets, and his overwhelming love for her. Struck with shame, Marion knocks the glass from Louis's hand and vows to make amends. As he regains his strength, they flee the hut together into the snow.

Why do we rarely see afros (the fluffy kind, not the jheri curls) in hair commercials?

Beware the

Do you think the ideal of having soft, shiny hair has a negative effect on girls who have naturally coarse hair?

Answer
Because in the real WORLD, people don't want to see something that is positive, and natural Afros the fluffy kind make one NEGATIVE. That's like eating hamburger everyday, when people could afford Filet Mignon. They don't want to show, this country is so poor, and going to the salon, is something positive that made US more luxury and because that's what OTHER COUNTRIES think of USA.
Watch: Good Hair - Documentary by Chris Rock 2009. or Tyra Banks What is Good Hair. Black women spend 80% of all hair products. She's got good advice!

It is NOT ACCEPTABLE. Another example: if you've got gray hair, you SHOULD COLOR IT. Gray is not acceptable in the business world. They are NEGATIVE, it means you're not taking care of yourself, and bringing yourself down, so they should be colored, to make yourself presentable TO THE WORLD.

They have opinions not the same as US 'normal hillbillly folks'. Once how I get compliments, when I style my hair sophisticated. Now I'm acceptable AGAIN!

âThere is a strong correlation between what we see in the mirror and how we feel about ourselves,â says Amy L. Flowers, PhD, a psychologist with expertise in self-esteem and body image and with a practice in Macon, Ga. âThomas Cash, a famous researcher in body image, states that up to 25 percent of our self-esteem is determined by how we feel about our bodies â you can't hate the way you look and still love yourself,â Flowers says. âAlso, we assume that others see us the way we see ourselves, so if we don't like a particular feature (like our hair), we assume that others find it repulsive, too.â

âI think hair can say a lot about how we see ourselves â if it looks like you just fell out of bed, it implies that you don't care about your appearance, which to me indicates poor self-esteem,â says Flowers. âI don't think you have to have on a full face of makeup before going out to get the mail, but a person who is going out in public should be clean and tidy. It shows self-respect and makes a good impression.â And she urges people to "remember that old expression: You only have one chance to make a first impression.â

Dana King, 53, started going gray in her 20s, began dyeing in her 30s and went to work for San Franciscoâs KPIX TV station in 1997, rising to news anchor. In 2010, she first approached her general manager about her giving up the dye.
âHe didnât like the idea at all and he asked me not to do it,â King said. Soon after, she did it anyway.
After sharing her hair story on-air, King was deluged with emails from viewers, including many women who colored and some who worried she had fallen ill. âThe response was overwhelmingly positive,â King said. âThey said it was a relief for them, that they could see someone that made it OK to be gray.â

Google: Rhonda Lee. Copied & pasted from her getting fired @ the KTBS station.
"I am very proud of my African-American ancestry which includes my hair. For your edification: traditionally our hair doesn't grow downward. It grows upward."
"Many Black women use strong straightening agents in order to achieve a more European grade of hair and that is their choice. However in my case I don't find it necessary."
"I'm very proud of who I am and the standard of beauty I display. As women we come in all shapes, sizes, nationalities, and levels of beauty."
"Showing little girls that being comfortable in the skin and HAIR God gave me is my contribution to society," the TV personality concluded.
