The Two Moons Hoax test141
August 30, 2010
For the past 7 years or so, on August 27th, a huge hoax has been plaguing email victims by the thousands. This widely spread hoax is one where unsuspecting people on the internet are made to believe that every single August 27th, the red planet known as Mars will pass so close, that from earth, it will appear as if there is a second moon in the dark sky.
This widely spread hoax, which is typically spread via email, typically says that at 12:30 am anyone peering into the night sky should be able to see the red planet and the moon side by side. It is supposed that together they will be roughly the same size and right next to each other. It also says that Mars is only going to be thirty-four million miles away from our planet. This email is written in such good format that its almost impossible not to believe!
Nearly all of the astronomists say that if Mars actually did make an appearance, and was that close the human race would probably seize to exist. If any planet got that close to Earth it would greatly affect our orbit as well as our distance from the sun.
Money Clips Make Great Executive Gifts
February 23, 2010
If you believe getting that new job in today’s environment was a challenge, wait till it is time to give executive gifts for a task that can prove daunting.
Choosing a gift for your boss could be a scaring and time-intensive process, especially because this is a time for bafflement and self-doubt. What in the world are you able to buy for the boss who has everything? Or what to get for the office mate whose cubicle is right next to yours for the holiday gift exchange? What do you give to that special customer whose significant contract’s commissions helped you meet the down payment for your new car?
The most useful thing to bear in mind in selecting executive gifts is to think about the personality of the recipient. Paperweights with funny witticisms, as an example, will not meet much appreciation from that heavy vegetarian who sits 3 cubicles to the right.
In a similar fashion , a bunch of flowers will only meet blank looks from your dour, 58-year-old male boss man who is always to busy he hasn’t got time to sniff his newly cleaned office, much more a handful of poinsettias. The one of the safest and the most trustworthy gift choices are, money clips. These are the ideal universal gifts for middle management. In fact, who doesn’t need to replace an old ugly wallet? They are fashionable, complex, and helpful. They come in a variety of styles from ‘Smart’ clips to hinged money clips. Get it engraved with a name (theirs or your company’s) and it’s a memento they’ll think about for quite a while.

Need to lose weight for your wedding?
February 3, 2010
Many of us find that the stress of trying to plan and implement the perfect wedding is more than just a little stressful. Let’s face it, it is hard! And with all that stress can often come the temptation of eating our favorite comfort foods.
Now there is nothing wrong with a bit of comfort food once in awhile, but hit them too hard and you may find you need to lose weight for your wedding – to fit in that dress you picked months ago. One easy way to drop a few pounds in a month or so is to go on the cookie diet. This diet is all the rage and if your downfall is sweets, this diet may be for you.
Destination Weddings
December 22, 2009
When it’s winter and you are getting married, many engaged couples decided to have a destination wedding. Go somewhere warm – a beautiful sandy beach in a warm tropical climate provides a fantastic getaway and some wonderful warmth in a season of cold.
If you choose to go with a destination wedding, be sure that you plan it in great detail before hand. Consider just who will be invited, how long will they be staying and whether you will be picking up the cost of their transportation and/or their hotel stay. Because you will already be in a wonderful spot to have a honeymoon, that’s likely where your honeymoon will take place. That’s why you want to be sure that the people you invite are people you really want to share this very important time with.
Aside from that, realize that many details of your wedding will have to be done long distance. Make abundant use of cameras so that you really see what you are ordering. This will prevent (or at least minimize) any unpleasant surprises at the last minute.
Benefits of a Fall Wedding
November 11, 2009
Many brides cannot imagine anything other than a beautiful spring wedding. That’s why June is such a popular month for weddings. But there are many benefits of a fall wedding.
For one, it’s much easier to arrange to have your wedding scheduled with the church and reception hall of your choice. Unlike those spring weddings, a fall wedding can often be scheduled with less than a year’s notice. And because it’s not prime rental time, you can sometimes get a better rate for the reception hall rental.
Secondly, there are few family vacations or other schedule conflicts. Except for the football fanatics, Saturday weddings can be scheduled during the day which means you can go with a lighter menu (which means lower cost to you).
Finally, the colors of fall are wonderful. The rich golds, coppers and burgundies are great for bridesmaid dresses and flowers. A fall wedding is often the most stunning of the year.
So don’t overlook fall as a time to get married.
Trends in Engagement Rings
November 11, 2009
The traditional engagement ring stone has been a diamond for I don’t know how long. Definitely decades and maybe as long as a century. But not all engagement rings feature diamonds in the center.
Precious stones like Sapphire, Ruby and Emerald are often used in lieu of a diamond when the bride’s tastes run a bit contrary to the norm. Each of these stones make an awesome choice for an engagement ring.
Other stones that are only semi precious can be used as well. My mother had a clear topaz in her engagement ring and I have a Tanzanite stone. Other pretty stones include amethyst or garnet. Whatever you choose, if she loves it, it’s perfect.
Planning a Beach Honeymoon?
October 15, 2009
If you are planning a honeymoon the some exotic beach, the lure of sun and sand and beautiful blue ocean sounds like heaven. Especially if you are going to get married during the winter months. Imagine spending sunny days on the beach with your new spouse while the rest of the world is zipping up their parkas and heading out to the winter cold.
But to make that beach get away perfect, you’ll want to be wearing your bathing suit with pride. By that I mean you’ll want ripped abs and a slim and sleek body. One way to get there is to get a balanced workout program like the Rev Abs program that Beachbody has just released. If you have a couple of months before the trip this is one way to get that dream body for your dream vacation.

Avoid Wedding Hair Woes
September 14, 2009
Every bride wants her wedding day to be perfect. And above all, brides wan to look picture perfect in their gowns. There are such a lot of things to do it can make your head spin. And speaking of making heads spin, a gorgeous hair style will go a long way to making that happen. Below are some pointers about hair any gal can us.
Keep the hair around your ears near to the face or it’ll intensify the roundness. This face shape can wear almost any hair style, long, medium or short. Most models have a flattering face shape and as you can see they wear all different styles. An oval face shape can pull off slicked back hair. With this shape what you need to do gives the face a more rounded appearance.
Don’t wear the hair too long and try to get more fullness round the ears and cheek bones. A long or rectangular shaped face can wear wispy bangs or be parted at the side. You do not wish to give your face too much length. This face shape looks great with jaw length hair with wispy bangs or parted at the side. If your hair is straight then try out some curl.
No matter what your face shape or hair style you select, be sure it is comfortable so you can look good and feel good on your special day.
Get Fit for Your Wedding
September 8, 2009
All brides want to look stunning on their wedding day. But looking stunning takes a bit of work. Aside from scheduling that facial and professional makeup artist, consider your figure.
If your figure is not where you want it to be, don’t worry. There are some awesome workout programs available today that will strip pounds of fat off of you and tone you up in 90 days or less. My favorite is P90X. This program from Beachbody is formulated by Tony Horton and uses a lot of variety in each work out to keep ‘muscle confusion’ high which helps keep you from stagnating on the workouts. In short, you keep making progress.
The only issue I have with P90X is that Tony has you do a lot of push ups and pull ups. Now these exercises are unprecedented in creating a super fit body but for some of us ladies, it’s just not our speed. So consider instead, ChaLEAN Xtreme which is also a very varied program which uses hand weights over the pull ups to achieve very similar results.
Of course, no workout program is going to make a huge transformation unless you also watch your diet. Keep your protein consumption up while doing either of these programs and your consumption of breads, potatoes and any starchy carb or sugar low and you’ll see amazing changes. When you walk down the isle, all eyes will be on you!
Make Your Wedding Bubbly
September 3, 2009
The marriage ceremony is totally full of different traditions. A more recent addition, wedding bubbles is neat way to send off the bride and groom. Of course, bubbles can be used for the bride’s entrance also. Like flower girls in marriage, the marriage bubble girls give a stunning and novel entrance for a bride. What tends to work best is to distribute the wedding bubbles to the wedding guests before you want the bubbles to appear.
If you want to use them for the bride’s entrance, having someone stand before the guests at the church and explain what is intended will provide a better outcome.
Used before or after the ceremony, wedding bubbles add fun and whimsy to any wedding.
Saving Money on Wedding Flowers
August 21, 2009
Flowers can be a simple and straightforward way to make your marriage ceremony something really special.
These beauties of nature are a typical decoration item for each marriage. In fact, regardless of what style or wedding theme you are planning, most brides will insist on flowers as the core of the wedding decorations. Aside the church most brides also plan flowers for the reception centerpieces and bridesmaid and bridal bouquets.
The simplest way is to keep your floral costs down is to hold your marriage in the season when live plants are plentiful. This way you can pick them yourself (if you know an avid gardner) or get less expensive costs from a wholesale florist center.
If you’re holding your marriage near to the reception location, you can reuse the same flowers at both locations. A great tip to reduce costs is to use tall palms which you can sometimes get cheaply at grocery stores or home improvement centers. This can make a huge visual statement. Another idea is to use balloons, ribbons or cut branches to spruce up the hall without
turning to costly flowers.
