Mention “mosquitoes” during the summer and you will most likely be greeted with sighs and moans of utter annoyance. The best way to cope with these pests is to set your own mosquito trap.
But how does one “trap” mosquitoes when WE humans and our delicious blood can attract them most? This is not always so, especially when you have the innovative people behind MosquitoMagnet.com. They go beyond mere mosquito trapping hardware to bring you mosquito magnets that leverage on the power of octenol as a secondary attractant. This means that with octenol, mosquitoes will most likely make a beeline for the trap, instead of flying to our exposed skin and attacking us.
A friend recently told me how a Houston maid company saved his marriage. I was incredulous at first. How can a bunch of maids in uniforms, scrubbing and cleaning his house from ceiling to floor, save his love life?
Turns out he felt his marriage was falling apart because his wife was complaining that the amount of chores she had to do was mountaineous. She had to juggle between a part time editing job, as well as tend to her 3 kids AND cope with the load of chores at home. If she was lucky, her mom would come by and she would have a few hours’ luxury sleep but other than that, she found that resting more than several minutes a day was next to impossible.
She made this known to her husband and her dutiful spouse called in the White Gloves Kleaning Services company. They are equipped with a full team of maids who will not rest until your home or office is sparkly clean. Moreover, their cleaning services are affordable so anyone who needs a break can call them in to help without a worry of the high cleaning cost. This service is also ideal for those who don’t want to trouble themselves when they are moving in or out of a home.
I’ve been interested in this girl for quite some time now. We met at the animal shelter when some friends and I were volunteering to talk the dogs out for a walk. She took Boxy, a bull terrier for a walk alongside Sassy, a mongrel I was chaperoning. The girl’s name is Myra and I’ve been itching to ask her out for a first date but I don’t quite have any idea how to impress her on a first day. I don’t really fancy being conventional and going to a dinner and movies all things like that. I want to be out of the norm! Unusual! Unpredictable!
So what I did was ask her to bring a bunch of her friends and together with my best mates, we will play paintball. Yep, not very conventional but she accepted the invitation and last weekend we went head on, girls versus the boys, on several rounds of paintball games. Earlier on I helped her choose her paintball gun pistols which by the way, was bought from Choicepaintballguns.com. The guns were available affordably at the site and I bought her one, the same one I was using. Seeing her playing and using the same gun I bought for her game me a nice fuzzy feeling. But that’s before being nailed by her paintball, hehe. Beginner’s luck
Later she thanked me for asking her out and she apologized sweetly for bruising me on our first date. OUR. FIRST. DATE! Did you hear that??
I remember attending a costume party when I was in college and because it was a fancy dress masquerade ball, I did my darndest to appear mysterious but all I did was stuck some miserable peacock eye feathers onto a hastily made mask and that was about it! Of course, the rest did not fare too well, save for a friend whose talents in handicraft was unsurpassed. She came out tops wearing her own creation and I am not surprised if she were to be a world class fashion designer of sorts today
Anyway recently I was invited to another costume party and memories of that high school costume party popped into my mind again. However, this time I am a bit more resourceful and I found a great store that stocks some great looking masks. These masks can be found at Featherstore.com. An odd name for a store that sells masks but that’s just it - the masks have feathers on them! Check out the photo of the mask I wanted below. It looks like a fiery phoenix, does it not?
True to its name the store also has other feather products you can browse. I was not really looking for placemats but when I saw the feathre placemats at the store I was immediately sold!
You know, I used to scoff at those advertisements on TV that advertised the latest diet program. I think these are just fads that prey on overweight people to convince them to part with their money so that they can earn cash off their insecurity and inferiority.
Another pet peeve of mine is seeing gadgets and devices that can supposedly help you shape up overnight and melt away the pounds in your body as easily as ice melts under the scorching sun. Imagine wearing a belt like device and sweating your fats away! Preposterous I say…
However recently I discovered a diet program called the Cookie diet. This is a highly efficient program that can really help you shed your unwanted weight, one pound at a time. Best part is there is nothing miraculous about this. You will be trained to eat healthy meals regularly and proportionately every day.
Someone once said it is not easy being larger than life. However, those who are literally large in size will hate this pun becase they detest the fact that people always direct this statement to their face and belittling them in the process. I mean, what’s wrong being large? Of course there is the health risk involved with being obese or overweight but as long as the individual is aware of it and are making improvements to their lifestyle, why berate them further and making them feel inferior?
Well for those XL sized people out there, I’ve got a tip for you: DON’T dress down! Show other people you can be stylish too! Choose your clothes wisely and avoid shapeless clothes that don’t flatter your body shape. It also should not be tight but only YOU will know what’s a good fit if you took the time to try it out.
I would also suggest visiting Jacamo.co.uk for a vast selection of great looking Large Men’s Clothes as well as accessories, footwear, underwear and other apparel to fill up your wardrobe with fashionable pieces. You’d definitely be spoiled for choice and you will celebrate the fact that these clothes are all oh so affordable!
A friend of mine got sick last Saturday because he braved strong winds and rain just so he could get his hands on his much needed wow gamecards.

I asked many of my friends about what is their preferred self protection gear, and below are the results based on their comments:
1. Personal alarm gadget
The girls love this, because it’s small and easy to carry. It’s also lightweight and you don’t need to brandish it like a weapon to use it!
2. Pepper spray
Can be very deadly if used right. Even the guys agree, a pepper spray can deter the most stubborn assailant!
3. Tactical flashlights
Surprisngly, lots of people have taken to carrying one around for emergencies. You can find one at most stores, or at the Lapolicegear.com store where they stock the best tactical gear around!
Diamonds are not a girl’s best friend, jewelry is. And whether your jewelry collection is as extensive as a Duchess’ or you’re just starting to amass your collection, allow me to let you in on a tip: Sometimes it’s best to buy wholesale fashion jewelry because besides paying minimal price for it, you get to own beautiful pieces of jewelry that you may not see elsewhere!
Of course, I hear you asking: “Now what would I do with hundreds of pieces of jwelry??” Fear not. What you should first do before placing and order is to round up your jewelry loving friends and have them share your order. A jewelry wholesaler will usually grant attractive discounts with bulk orders placed so be sure to take note of this. Calculate the individual prices that your friends need to pay, collect their orders and payment, then contact your wholesaler.
Buying from a jewelry wholesale company certainly has its own perks. However you will need to find out the shipping fees and see if it is affordable. Ideally a good wholesaler will provide an international shipping list on their website, or by request. Take note that custom duties and taxes are not covered, and you are the only one who has to fork out these extra fees. But if it’s worth it, why not? Happy jewelry shopping!
“MSN’s down! Or our broadband is. We can’t transfer anything until either one of them goes back up again!” yelled my colleague.
I was reminded of this incident a year or so ago when I was still working in an ad agency, albeit a small one. We didn’t have any means of transferring files between us or to clients securely and quickly at the time, so we had to rely on MSN. Unfortunately it proved to be our downfall because we lost an important client that week as a result of not being able to meet the deadline.
While this scenario happens less often now that there are good providers of FTP service nowadays, people especially those running their own businesses should consider using a File Transfer Protocol to transfer and store their important work related data. A good FTP service provider should let its users do so using the major web browsers such as Firefox, Internet Explorer and most recently, Google’s Chrome.
What’s better if you can find an FTP service provider that promises a brandable web page that can be customized solely for your company’s corporate identity. That way you will truly appear to be professionals who value the meaning of time and money, by finding the means to transfer files reliably to the the people that matter. It’s easy to find a free file transfer site, just look around and compare the best features!
Happy jewelry shopping!
