Seriously, what is a “little black book”? It is a book in which someone keeps a list of his previous dates and ranks them according to some kind of personal review system.
<br />
<br />
Prime Dating Sites does the same thing, not with dates, but with online dating sites. After thoroughly testing each of the online dating and matching services, they review them for those who are considering entering into a relationship with them. Most clients of dating services make their selection based upon advertising. It makes so much more sense to objectively look at the various options and choose the service that best matches your own interests and intents.
<br />
<br />
Perfect Match, <a href="http://www.primedatingsites.com/eharmony.html">eHarmony.com</a>, Yahoo Personals, Matchmaker.com, Date.com, Lavalife, <a href="http://www.primedatingsites.com/chemistry.html">Chemistry.com</a>, <a href="http://www.primedatingsites.com/match.html">Match.com</a>, Friend Finder, American Singles — they all are good in their own way, so how do you choose between them? Let Prime Dating Sites help you discover how they differ and how they each fill their own unique niche. You have specific criteria that you desire in an online dating. Prime Dating Sites can help you work through the selection process and find the one that best suits you.
<br />
<br />
Isn’t it time to trade in that little black book for a ginormous database of interesting people, one of whom may be your perfect match?</div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19581357.post-2522488778618346652008-06-13T22:06:00.004-04:002008-06-13T22:12:34.400-04:00Tim Russert Dead<center><script language="javascript" src="http://www.thenewsroom.com/mash/swf/voxant_player.js?a=V2495919&m=509269&w=300&h=325"></script>

<span style="font-style: italic;"><span style="font-weight: bold;">Tim Russert - Video</span></span></center>
<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">As everyone knows by now, Tim Russert died at work earlier this afternoon. His death was sudden and unexpected. He apparently collapsed, probably from sudden heart failure, and was unable to be revived. He was 58-years-old.
<br />
<br />
Aside from the obvious sadness at any death, it is always something that takes me aback that someone can be here one minute and gone the next. I know that obviously, but we don't think of it very often. When something like this happens, its a reminder that nothing is guaranteed. I take it as a reminder to be thankful for the blessings we have today as opposed to looking for something tomorrow.

<br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: verdana;">However, when you get right down to it there’s a timesheet at the core of it all and without that information being correctly completed, none of the sophistication is of any use at all. Of course, that's why its important that there is a simple and trustworthy method of inputing the information required to accurately complete time sheets. It needs to be as simple as possible with clear and precise instructions and in terms that are easily understood by whoever is filling out the original data. Otherwise, you end up with a mess on your hands and don't get a true reflection of time management issues.</span>
<br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: verdana;">The software helps you identify areas that need attention and areas that are producing efficiently. Its not a matter of estimating anymore, you can have precise data that reflects time management issues throughout your business. You can also use the data gathered to get better estimates on any future projects you have planned.</span>
<br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: verdana;">This is just the tip of the iceberg of what time management software can do to help you build your business. Check out their website for a good overview of everything that the software can do. You might just find that its exactly what you need for a more smoothly run business.</span></div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19581357.post-56565281885787614212008-06-11T13:24:00.003-04:002008-06-11T13:41:30.969-04:00Texas Governor's Mansion Fire<center><script language="javascript" src="http://www.thenewsroom.com/mash/swf/voxant_player.js?a=V2482545&m=506208&w=300&h=325"></script>

<br />
BestOnlineCoupons.com is a website that offers online coupons with coupon codes and fantastic deals from over 1,000 merchants! When I visited the site I was amazed at how user friendly it was and at the huge number of name brand merchants that offer significant savings through the use of coupons online.
<br />
<br />
The site stays up to date with daily updates providing the very latest coupons and product deals. It is easy to navigate making it very simple to find the latest bargains on the web.
<br />
<br />
I checked out several product categories and found myself in the Health & Beauty section. I went to <a href="http://www.bestonlinecoupons.com/coupons/the-body-shop.asp">The Body Shop</a> coupons and found a range of types of coupons, from a dollar amount off with the purchase of a specific product, to free shipping with a purchase to getting an additional product with the purchase of products and more.
<br />
<br />
On each page the coupons are listed along with their expiration dates, redemption instructions and a list of related merchants you can check out.
<br />
<br />
I liked that I could browse through <a href="http://www.bestonlinecoupons.com/coupons/boden.asp">Boden USA clothing catalog online sales</a>! How cool is that!

<div style="text-align: justify;">All of the <a href="http://bluestarchronicles.com/2008/04/09/china-beijing-olympic-torch-relay-is-great-success/">controversy</a> about the Olympic Torch relay has fallen by the wayside as the torch is working its way through Beijing. It reached the city of Kunming in Yunan Province on Monday and moved on to Beijing on Wednesday. As of today, it is winding its way through Beijing where it will be for the opening ceremonies of the Olympic Games in August.

Its fast, easy and fun. You aren't restricted to the shops in your local shopping mall. You can roam freely throughout the world and find the items you need from behind your computer. Its a wonderful thing!
<br />
<br />
Shop Goldyn takes the concept of shopping online to a whole new level. They offer you the convenience of shopping online at your leisure, and they will will also bring their boutique to you. You read that right. They will bring the boutique to you! How cool is that!? You can have a few friends over, choose five of your favorite brands and they will throw you a party. That means they take care of invitations, food, drinks .... everything ... and its complimentary.
<br />
<br />
Best of all Shop Goldyn has great style. They carry the best brands and make them available to you at very reasonable prices. Their website is set up so you can easily browse by design or by brand.
<br />
<br />
A few of the designers they carry include: <a href="http://www.shopgoldyn.com/shop.by.designer.aspx?did=208">Andrea Brueckner</a>, <a href="http://www.shopgoldyn.com/shop.by.designer.aspx?did=213">Charlotte Ronson</a>, Goldyn ViNtAgE, H Fredriksson, Hartford, Manoush, Mint, Poles, Skin and Threads, <a href="http://www.shopgoldyn.com/shop.by.designer.aspx?did=266">Diabless</a> and many more. That's just the beginning of your choices.
<br />
<br />
I almost forgot, if you live in the Colorado Front Range area you can have a complimentary personal stylist come to your home as part of the fashion party that I mentioned earlier. The stylist will assist with consultations and private fittings. They will help you find the right styles that maximize your assets and camouflage any flaws you might have. They will help you get the wardrobe that is right for you based on your own personal style, lifestyle and preferences.
<br />
<br />
Sounds like a great deal to me.

<br />
<span style="font-size:85%;"><em><strong>Kate Middleton</strong></em></span></center>
<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">The Queen of England is telling Prince William that Kate Middleton has to get a job and actually work before they take any steps towards marriage. The subject of Kate Middleton's lack of employment since she graduated college three years ago. She's piddled with this and that, but she's not actually been employed. She seems to be focusing more on a career as Princess in Waiting as opposed to seeking out any other career paths.
<br />
<br />
At 82-years-old, the Queen maintains a full work schedule and is said to feel strongly that people should work. She also is said to feel strongly that the Royals should set an example of hard work. She doesn't quite know what Kate Middleton does with her time and doesn't want a public relations problem that might be caused by having a Royal WAG on William's arm.
<br />
<br />
So she's laid down the law to William. Kate gets a job. Period. Oh, and she has to actually work the job for more than a month or two (which has been her pattern).
<br />
<br />
I guess time will tell if the Queen will be able to influence Kate to do more than wait for Prince William to ask her to marry him.

I don't know why. I love them. I think they add personality and charm to any home, but we've moved around a lot and for whatever reason I've never gotten one. I guess I was afraid to move it. Plus, I kind of had the idea in my head that they were all pretty much alike. That's just not true, there are a ton of grandfather clock options. The variety in styles, chines and tunes is almost staggering.
<br />
<br />
Most of the one's I've seen in other people's houses are the traditional ones that we all think of when we think of grandfather clocks. Who says that grandfather clocks are all the same? I have found a website with the most beautiful grandfather clocks of all shapes and sizes. They don't just have grandfather clocks, they have Grandfather Clocks, Wall Clocks, Mantel Clocks and more.
<br />
<br />
I love the one featured to the right. It is part of the Howard Miller Triple Chime Grandfather Clock line at 1-800-4Clocks.com. If you click on the image to the right you can go to the larger image and see the beautiful Tuscany Cherry wood grain and delicate carvings in the wood. If (WHEN!) I buy one, I think that will be the one I get. I already have a place for it. It'll go right inside my front door in the front foyer so it'll be seen as soon as someone comes into the house.
<br />
<br />
This is just one <a href="http://www.1-800-4clocks.com/grandfather-clocks.html ">grandfather clock</a> in a huge selection of beautiful clocks of all kinds. You can shop by brand or type of clock. Their inventory includes <a href="http://www.1-800-4clocks.com/wall-clocks.html">wall clocks</a>, <a href="http://www.1-800-4clocks.com/mantel-clocks.html">mantle clocks</a>. It also includes Howard Miller, Bulova, Ridgeway, Kieninger, Seth Thomas and more. Whether your style is classic, traditional or ultra modern, you can find it at 1-800-4Clocks.com.

I don't even know what to say about this! I think that if they were seriously trying to sell their baby they would have surely offered to sell him for $5 instead of a buck-fifty ... but what do I know. We all get frustrated when our babies are little ... you know, lack of sleep and dirty diapers get old pretty quickly. But usually if we joke about selling the baby we are really just joking. At least we would think better of it by the time we got to the computer and actually went through the process of posting an offer to sell the child.
<br />

<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;"><a href="http://www.wchstv.com/newsroom/eyewitness/0805/080521_41d512f9.shtml">Val Thomas</a> had several heart attacks and had no life signs for 17 1/2 hours, rigor mortis had set in and the family was discussing organ donation. The organ donation issue is why she's alive now. She was kept on a respirator even though she had not had any brain wave activity for hours. She was put on other machines as well to keep her organs healthy while the organ donation process continued.
<br />
<br />
It wasn't until the nurses started removing her from the oxygen that she came back to life. She has no heart blockage and appears she's going to be just fine.
<br />
<br />
Woah! Bet that freaked some people out!

I know that I get confused about what different web hosts offer. I look at this one and that one trying to figure out which one is the better deal. Web Hosting Choice does the comparison shopping for you. That just makes it so much easier!
<br />
<br />
They compare all the elements you need to know about in order to make a good decision about which hosting service is right for your needs. For instance, get comparisons of bandwidth offers, hosting prices versus services offered and much more. They even give you a review of scams to be on the look out for.
<br />
<br />
If you are looking for a web hosting service you can make it easy on yourself and use Web Hosting Choice to help you decide which service is right for your needs.</div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com24tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19581357.post-77344622586484074242008-05-19T23:41:00.001-04:002008-05-22T23:44:23.936-04:00Lost Season 4 Finale - There's No Place Like Home<div style="text-align: justify;">I have come to accept that the writers, producers, directors and actors of Lost are sadists. The teasers, cliffhangers, twists and turns are endless and excruciating. At the same time, you don't really want it all to end, which probably means that those of us who watch it are masochists. Now they are making us wait another week for the 'evening of Lost' that will be the season 4 finale.
<br />
<br />
Last week's episode left us with some understanding of how the various people who end up as the Oceanic 6 came to be the ones to get off the island. It didn't seem like some of them to have gone ahead of others, so how did that happen? Jack, for instance, it wouldn't be like him to get on a rescue boat before the others. Last week it started making sense. Different ones in different places all being lead to the same end.
<br />
<br />
I've read some spoilers, but I've heard false spoilers have been leaked on purpose to keep the surprises coming. I guess we'll find out. I'll not include the spoilers here - you can find them online if you want to know.

There are so many choices and if you aren't all that computer savvy it can be very confusing. You have choices on how much bandwidth, storage space and terms like cgi and ftp. You really have to know a lot to be able to compare hosting services and see that you are getting the best service for your needs. Expensive services are not necessarily better services. The point is to get what you need at the best price you can.
<br />
<br />
You can get <a href="http://webhostingrating.com/articles/category/cheap-web-hosting/">cheap web hosting</a> that serves your needs without having to give yourself a major headache searching through websites and trying to compare all the different offerings. That's why it is so helpful to have a site like Web Hosting Rating where you can read articles about the various aspects of different types of services. In their articles on finding cheap web hosting they recommend reading testimonials of existing customers, understanding the effect of bad customers who might be sharing the same server (I've had personal experience with that!) and getting a good understanding of whether the hosting company will be able to serve your needs over the long term.
<br />
<br />
With web hosting, you can't judge the quality of a service by the price. Some of the best services out there are cheap. Just be sure you find a cheap hosting service that is also the best for your needs.

<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">On the sixth anniversary of the terrorist attack on the United States, Petty Officer 2nd Class Chris Davila raised an American flag over Camp Korean Village, Iraq, he brought with him from Arizona.
<br />
<br />
Tuesday, May 6, 2008, Sierra Vista firefighter and emergency medical technician Chris Davila presented that flag to Fire Chief Randy Redmond as fellow firefighters looked on. Monday, May 5, 2008, was Davila's first day back on the job with the department after being gone for nearly nine months, with seven of those months deployed as a Navy Reserve corpsman serving with a Marine unit near the Jordanian and Syrian border area in Iraq.
<br />
<br />
And, as luck would have it, on his first shift saw him responding to a blaze in Sierra Vista. "Right back to work," he said with a laugh.
<br />
<br />

They have recently included a version of their services that is built for Mac! They have also included enhancements making it easier for you to view and share your data view iPhone and other hand held devices! Now you can not only be sure that your data is securely backed up, but you can access it easily from multiple types of devices.
<br />
<br />
I've lost my information twice and really value the ability to back up online. Both times it was work related and both times the entire contents of my financial program was lost. It was not a small matter. In both incidents it had to do with lightening storms and it took us months to reenter data that was lost.
<br />
<br />
After the first time I started looking into an <a href="http://www.ibackup.com/">Online Backup</a> system but never followed through. I followed through immediately the second time. I learned my lesson about the importance of data backup. Online Storage is great because it is off site and no affected by whatever happens to your home or work computer.
<br />
<br />
IBackup Online offers very user friendly interface with storage features where users online data appear as a mapped drive or folder on their desktop. Working with data online couldn’t be easier, with drag-n-drop features and a familiar explorer interface. This feature is not offered by any other online storage service with the kind of performance and security that IBackup offers.
<br />
<br />
Performance difference is very significant in many cases where IBackup’s desktop applications outperform the rest by a factor of at least 30-50%. This could mean significant productivity gain.
<br />
<br />
The IBackup Online website very easy to navigate and gives thorough and easy to understand explanations of the services offered. They offer packages from 5 to 300 gigs of storage. That would cover the needs of individuals or businesses needing Online Storage. They have plenty of methods to get in touch with support technicians 24/7 (that’s always an important feature of any program for me!).
<br />
<br />
It looks like a top-notch online backup and storage solution.</div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19581357.post-10612576899075841072008-05-11T16:45:00.001-04:002008-05-13T16:47:19.832-04:00My Great Kids!<div style="text-align: justify;"><strong>I have the best kids in the world.</strong> Within about 30 minutes of getting up <strike>this</strike> yesterday morning a guy came to the door with a nice vase full of yellow tulips. I love tulips. I knew they weren't from my husband, because I know my husband! Low and behold, they were from my dear Soldier Son and his new bride.
<br />
<br />
Then about 30 minutes later I got another delivery. This time it was a gorgeous azalea bush! I love azaleas! I have them all over my yard. The azalea was from my sweet darling daughter.

I even have <a href="http://www.ceilingfanwarehouse.com/outdoor-ceiling-fans-c-348.html">Outdoor Ceiling Fans</a>. The ceiling fan on our screened in back porch is especially nice. When its hot outside we can turn on that fan and sit on the porch in comfort in spite of the heat. It gives off a nice gentle breeze that makes the porch just perfect.
<br />
<br />
The people who lived here before us put them all in, but I'm glad they did. I really like them. I can turn off the air conditioner and run the fans and they keep a nice cool breeze going ... as long as its not too hot outside. I especially like sleeping with the ceiling fan running in my bedroom. I don't know why, but its soothing.
<br />
<br />
A few of the fans need replacing. Actually, they are still working fine, I just want to update them. They've been up forever. I was looking around online and found some great deals. I found a <a href="http://www.ceilingfanwarehouse.com/minkaaire-m-12.html">Minka Ceiling Fan</a> for a fantastic price! I have priced them in local stores and the ones at CeilingFanWarehouse.com have prices that just 'blow you away'.
<br />
<br />
Check out their inventory and their prices. I think you'll be very pleasantly surprised.

<span style="font-size:85%;"><em><strong>David Archuleta</strong></em></span></center>
<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">Usually we read about contestants getting kicked off American Idol, but this time its a parent. Jeff Archuleta, the father of <strong>David Archuleta</strong>, has been <a href="http://ap.google.com/article/ALeqM5jVJWgpovJsBFxmTTOPm5_eB9qMuQD90IIRV00">denied his backstage pass</a> on American Idol. The reason for him being kicked out of the set is basically that he's a royal pain in the ass.
<br />
<br />
Predictably, <a href="http://www.ogpaper.com/news/news-01945.html">Jeff Archuleta denies he did anything</a> he's rumored to have done.
<blockquote>"I'm definitely involved with my son, and I encourage him, but I think that's a lot different from forcing and threatening and all that stuff. There was absolutely no truth in any of the stories about me yelling at David, making him cry or withholding water from him. That was crazy!" Jeff Archuleta was quoted later, denying his American Idol backstage privileges have been take away. Fox has not commented on the incident yet. Old stories about David Archuleta and his dad have begun popping up, most notably when Jeff Archuleta was called "the monster dad from hell" by Naomi Judd, who was a judge on "Star Search", where the then 12-year-old David took part.</blockquote>
<br />
<br />
Parents really need to get their own lives so their kids can live their own lives. Its really as simple as that.
