All Men Be Careful While Making Relationships On Dating Sites
Internet dating has also lots of snags that are not often talked about openly.The practice has been hugely focused and encouraged everywhere from main motion pictures to great commercials.Besides women, men are also cheated or victimized by the persons with whom they made a good relation in the hope of good.Sometimes they are assaulted, robbed and sometimes even got murdered from encounters with "women" met online.This is because some predators target elderly men,some targets homosexual individuals and others target some general men.But the fact is, these incidents are never taken seriously and never got the alertness they deserve.
One man was hospitalized who seriously injured after meeting a women he met online.The women brought with her a number of guys who were hiding and when the opportunity came he got seriously beaten by those guys and everything was taken away from him and then they left the place leaving him wounded on the road.Now how can you make sure that you're not going fall in this same situation?Well if you follow some common steps and got some common sense then surely you can also avoid such situations.
1. Do not get too much attracted seeing the profile picture at first because those images can be easily faked or taken from other photography sites.Make sure the person you are getting in touch with have no criminal backgrounds like charges of robbery,theft or frauds.You should also keep your own information as private as possible
2. Your Social security numbers, credit card numbers, passwords, bank account information, and any other sensitive information should never be given to another individual over the internet.
3. When you finally meet her in person, always try to meet on public places rather talking yourself to some deserted places where groups or gangs might be waiting for you.And never open your wallet more often if not necessary.
I am not saying everyone in the dating sites are frauds,but in most cases scamming has been the main issue.So why to take the risk if you know that if you're a bit careful then you can avoid these troubles?Love scams normally target men as well as women. If you come into contact with someone you believe to be a scam artist, end the relationship, and don't respond to further communication.
KUALA LUMPUR'S Islamic Fashion Festival 2008
The event showcased 44 designers from five countries, including Malaysia.
Among the Malaysian designers taking part in the festival are Bernard Chandran, Tom Abang Saufi, Melinda Looi, Michael Ong, Khoon Hooi and Albert King.
The international designers involved were Samuel Wattimena, Ghea Panggabean, Sebastian Gunawan and Biyan from Indonesia, Jun Escario from the Philippines, Rajesh and Anirban from India as well as Deepak Perwani from Pakistan.
The fashion extravaganza at the J W Marriot Hotel in Kuala Lumpur showcased designs that adhere to the Muslim dress code.
"In the past the festival was only opened to invited guests. This year we want the public to be able to take part as well," said founder and chairman of the Islamic Fashion Festival Datuk Raja Rezza Shah.
Raja Rezza said in the past, he received a lot of queries on what constituted proper Muslim dressing. To address this problem, he held the "Islamic Attire Workshop" on November 22 where top Muslim speakers would be able to answer such queries.
Nine organisations namely the National Heart Institute Foundation (IJNF), Tuanku Najihah Foundation (TNF), National Cancer Society Malaysia, Kedah Darul Natural Disaster Association (PBANK), Tengku Ampuan Rahimah Charity House Association (RACTAR), Tuanku Bainun Creative Centre for Children, Malaysian Muslim Womens Welfare Organisation and Pahang Flood Relief Fund (P-Flood) were also involved in the festival.
These foundations will have an event each to raise funds with the help of designers and artistes for the shows that will have individual themes.
Some of the interesting themes held were "Interpre-tations", "Aroosah — Islamic Bridal", "Enchanting Gamelan", "Bolly-wood Flavour" and "Ethnic and Glamour".
Young fashion designers also were given the opportunity to shine at the Anugerah Pereka Muda IFF (IFF Young Designers Award) on November 26.
The final leg of the fashion festival will be an Islamic Fashion Bazaar that will be opened to the public at the KL Plaza from November 28 till December 4.

Health: Nutrition In Childhood
Childhood & teenage is the most important time in a person’s life. After birth the increased growth rate of the child continues up to 18-19 years of age. Thus the amount of nutrients needed for a child is much greater than an adult. At this age the physiological development of the person is not complete, so the person is not very aware of maintaining a balanced diet rich in the nutrients needed by the body. As a result, the person fails to obtain the nutrients in the food needed by the body. Owing to fewer nutrients the body becomes weak; the person can suffer from serious diseases, and many times the patient have to live the rest of his life with his or her body thin & weak. So the responsibility of the parents towards their children is more. They have to be very careful about the food their children eat.
The rate of growth is the fastest in females from 11-13 years and in males 13-15 years. The amount of nutrients needed by the body is not same for all. We have to consider the person’s sex, age, the rate of growth to know the demand of food needed by the person. The more the rate of growth the more food is needed. The growth & development of the body depends a lot on food.
Nutrients that are required to be in the food eaten by the children:
- There must be enough calories to provide the working energy.
- There must be enough proteins for repair & fast growth of the body.
- As the bones & teeth develop in this age, so there must be sufficient minerals & vitamin D in the diet.
In many countries children of this age suffer from the lack of nutrients mostly protein, calcium, iron, & vitamin A, whose main cause is poorness, lack of knowledge on food nutrients, and lack of a good appetite. In this age the children spend most of their time in school & the amount of food they eat there is inadequate for their body. Amount of food a 10-12 year old child should ingest everyday are as follows:
· 320g fiber
· 60g split peas
· 100g fruit
· 50g milk
· 200g fish or meat
· 130g oil or butter
Lack of the above mentioned items can be harmful.
If the child does not like to eat then vitamin D capsule can be provided but the age must be considered. The demand of food by the body is very high in this age even though the child has low appetite. So take care of your child very well and make him understand the necessity of food that he must eat to keep his health good.

Analisis de Escritura
Aprende a analizar la escritura de una persona y descubri su peronalidad.-
Y como el refrán –tan sabio- dice que más vale prevenir que curar, hoy te acerca una herramienta para que sepas con quién te estás metiendo: la grafóloga y consultora psicológica Marigel Indart señala que podemos detectarlos a través de la escritura: “De los ocho rasgos o indicadores que nombraré a continuación, deberían encontrar más de cuatro para suponer que se trata de la escritura de un celoso”, advierte la especialista.
1. Mayúsculas separadas de las minúsculas siguientes:
Las mayúsculas son la máxima expresión del Yo. Representan a la persona que escribe. Las letras siguientes representan a los otros. Cuando una persona levanta la lapicera o el lápiz luego de escribir una mayúscula, y acto seguido continúa con la letra siguiente, está poniendo una distancia, una pausa de reflexión o de duda antes de entregarse totalmente a los vínculos con los demás.
Esto no quiere decir que no llegará a brindarse nunca a los otros, pero tiene ciertas reservas por inseguridad, desconfianza o por necesidad de reflexionar antes de mostrase (primero conoce y luego se da a conocer).
Si la lapicera fue levantada de la hoja, la mayúscula está desunida, aún aquellas que estén pegadas (en grafología las llamamos reenganchadas), si el trazo fue cortado las clasificarán como mayúsculas separadas de minúsculas siguiente.
2. Inclinación hacia la izquierda:
En el lado derecho de la hoja están simbolizados el futuro, pero también los otros, las personas con quienes nos vinculamos. Quien escribe con una inclinación hacia la izquierda está reflejando un poco de desconfianza, cierto grado de retraimiento. Además esta postura refleja de alguna manera que la persona tiende a mirarse a sí misma, que está como ensimismada en sus propias necesidades y esto le dificulta por momentos ver las necesidades ajenas así como también interpretar los dichos y acciones de los demás siempre en referencia a sí mismos .
3. Trazos finale shacia abajo o hacia atrás:
Los trazos finales son todos aquellos trazos que, como su nombre lo indica, están últimos, es decir, la lapicera se levanta de la hoja luego de realizarlos. Nos muestran hacia dónde dirigimos nuestros esfuerzos, el fin último de nuestras acciones.
Cuando van hacia abajo (zona inferior) nuestros esfuerzos y acciones están dirigidos hacia nuestras necesidades más básicas y también a aspectos inconscientes. Estas necesidades pueden ser físicas (alimento, sexo, abrigo, etc) o afectivas (contención, amor, atención, etc). Dan cuenta de una personalidad demandante, que necesita permanentemente que le presten atención, cuidados y afecto ya que de lo contrario se sienten inseguros, desprotegidos.
4. Letras pequeñas:
Entre otras cosas, el tamaño de las letras tiene que ver con la autoestima. A menor tamaño, la autoestima es más deficiente. La letras que miden por debajo de 2,5mm serán pequeñas y las que midan más de 3,5mm, grandes.
Como es de esperar, quienes tienen escritura pequeña, y por lo tanto una autoestima más bien baja o al menos poco firme, necesitan de la aprobación de los demás y esto los puede llevar a sufrir de celos ya que caen en competencias por el amor o la atención que tanto necesitan de las personas significativas para ellos.
5. Márgenes grandes:
La hoja en blanco representa al espacio vital en el cual nos movemos, y la escritura nos representa en cuanto a la manera en que nos posicionamos en este espacio. Cuando el espacio que queda entre los bordes de la hoja y la masa de escritura es grande, estamos posicionándonos en el centro del escenario. Es decir, es una manera de llamar la atención.
Pero además de esto estamos como agazapados, protegidos en nuestro propio mundo como señal de defensa ante un entorno que nos resulta amenazante en algún aspecto. Esto puede tener que ver con una situación real y objetiva o con una vivencia personal y subjetiva.
6. Rúbrica envolvente:
Si la firma está envuelta en un rasgo como si se quisiera “guardar” el nombre dentro de un saco protector, estamos frente a una rúbrica envolvente.
Las personas que sienten la necesidad de resguardarse, de auto protegerse y quedar al abrigo de un útero imaginario en donde nada puede lastimarlos suelen firmar con este rasgo. Es posible que socialmente no demuestren este sentimiento, pero interiormente son sumamente sensibles y vulnerables. Esta capa protectora muchas veces les dificulta el vínculo con los otros, a quienes sin darse del todo cuenta les demandan permanente atención y cariño. Esto los lleva a celar a sus seres queridos, y mucho más aún a sus vínculos más significativos y que ocupen un rol protector (padres, marido, esposa).
7. Puntos y rayas innecesarias al final de los párrafos:
Por lo general quienes acostumbran a hacer este tipo de trazos, son personas desconfiadas que buscan dejar en claro cuál es su terreno por si a alguien se le pudiera ocurrir traspasar ese límite. Suelen sospechar de las acciones de los demás y están permanentemente “en guardia”. Tal vez no siempre reaccionen o demuestren desmedidamente esta falta de confianza, pero de manera casual dejan saber que están atentos a un posible engaño.
8. Pequeños ganchos al final de las palabras:
Cuando terminamos de escribir una palabra, nos dirigimos a la siguiente dejando un espacio en blanco. Ese espacio representa el vínculo que generamos entre nosotros y los demás. Los ganchos, como si fueran anzuelos, proyectan la necesidad de atrapar, de retener a las personas con quienes tenemos vínculos afectivos fuertes. Interiormente se teme el abandono.
Shocking: Worst Kind Of Maid Abuse
A housewife who scalded her maid with hot water and an iron has been jailed for 18 years in Malaysia.Nirmala Bonat at 19, when she started work for the wealthy Malaysian
Yim Pek Ha was found guilty of using dangerous weapons to injure Nirmala Bonat on three separate occasions, in one of the country's worst cases of domestic worker abuse.Ms Bonat said she was beaten and burned for mistakes she made during the five months she worked in Yim's home in Kuala Lumpur in 2004.
On one occasion, her employer took a hot iron and pressed it against her breasts after complaining that clothes had not been ironed properly.
Malaysian newspapers published photographs of a then 19-year-old Ms Bonat, which showed burns and bruises over much of her body.
Yim's defence claimed the injuries were self-inflicted, but Judge Akhtar Tahir disagreed.
He said he wanted to impose a "deterrent sentence" on Yim to show that "sadistic behaviour... cannot be tolerated in a civil society."
Yim's lawyer called the sentence "excessive" because there was "no loss of life, no disfigurement, no scars" in the case.
The wealthy 40-year-old, who broke down in tears in court, will appeal against the verdict, Jagjit Singh said.
Ms Bonat did not attend the hearing because she has returned to her hometown in the East Nusa Tenggara province of Indonesia.
Human rights groups and Indonesian officials have urged Malaysia to strengthen laws to protect some 300,000 Indonesian domestic workers.
At least 1,500 Indonesian maids seek help each year at diplomatic offices across Malaysia, officials said.

AN EYE FOR AN EYE
A man blinded Ameneh in an acid attack after she spurned his marriage proposals. He has been sentenced to the same punishment, in a literal application of Iran's sharia Eye-for-an-Eye Qisa laws.
Tehran province criminal court has ordered Majid Movahedi, 27, to be blinded in both eyes from drops of acid in response to a plea from his victim, Ameneh Bahrami. NB Majid's family is implicated in this horrific crime.
The punishment is legal under the Sharia Code of Qisas, which allows retribution for violent crimes.
Bahrami was left horrifically disfigured after Movahedi threw a jar of acid in her face in October 2004. Her injuries led to the loss of one eye and left her blind in the other.
She had previously complained to police about being threatened and harassed by Movahedi, but had been told no action could be taken.
Asked by the judge if she wanted Movahedi's face to be splashed with acid, she replied: "That is impossible and horrific. Just drip 20 drops of acid in his eyes so he can realise what pain I am undergoing."
Ameneh Bahrami, said Movahedi's family had asked her to marry him several times, but she had refused. Movahedi later threatened to kill her. Movahedi said he decided to attack Bahrami after she told him she had married someone else, and pleaded with him to leave her alone.
"I decided to splash acid on her face so her husband would leave her and I could have her," he told the court.
Tehran's deputy public prosecutor, Mahmoud Salarkia, said the publicity surrounding the case would deter future acid attacks.
Majid is allowed to appeal the verdict.

Super Mario 3.
Kanye, at the American Movie Awards, in what appears to be, a raccoon tail. I'm not the biggest retro kid fan and it was hard enough seeing dudes walk around with bandanas around their necks claiming it was "swag". Rodents is the new hot look. I'm gonna bust out my Raccoon Tail hat and see how many digits I get.
The only man in my opinion who can pull off this look other than Kanye is Mario himself...

NEW TELE
this is my new tele, the GORGEOUSLY STUNNING Samsung LN40A750 which is 40 inches of pure bliss. It has basically everything you would need for a good videogame/movie setup...4 HDMI, 2 Component, 1 Composite, 1 Optical (audio), 1 VGA & 1 DVI port...now for the GOOD stuff, 50,000:1 contrast ratio, 120Hz refresh rate, insane amount of customizable features for the white balance, hue, black levels, etc., entertainment video settings like movie, game, or sports and a whole wack of other ones I'll barely use. Aesthetics wise it looks amazing, the floating glass around the screen like the Sony Bravias are known for, and a slight line of red under the glass which is pretty cool. Either way this is a premium tele which is sold as high as 2399$ or more, I got it for 1699$ (2 gnotes after taxes...fucking taxes) but it was well worth it...just look at this thing...it's BEAUTIFUL...anyway enough ranting. This is my new tele...if the bitches don't like it...they're fucking skanks! lol...I know you all want one now =P

American food voucher
Rising unemployment and food costs have more Americans turning to government for assistance.The number of Americans who apply for food stamp, in November will exceed 30 million. It is reported The Washington Post, referring to the Ministry of Agriculture, which released this week.
As highlighted in the paper edition, this record, exceeding the figure, which was marked by the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina in 2005. Earlier, the Government unveiled figures that in 2007 some 12 million hungry people in the country, including nearly 700 thousand children.
The growing number of Americans applying for food aid, analysts attributed the increase in the number of unemployed and rising food prices. In October, unemployment in the U.S. reached 6.5 percent.
As expected, the plan to stimulate the economy, which will take Congress, would contain an item on the increase in food aid. Elected U.S. President Barack Obama, whose mother once for a short time herself received food vouchers are likely to make this issue a priority after taking office in January next year. During the election campaign, Obama promised to end child hunger in the United States.
Under current rules, for food assistance may contact the Americans with incomes at a rate of less than 27,564 dollars for a family of four. Vouchers are given on average in the amount of 109 dollars per person per month. The maximum amount for which tickets are provided at 588 dollars a month for a family of four.

Kristi and Monique came up for Holiday Market Girls Night on Friday. We got to take a limo to the event, it was a blast.
After four days of being at the convention center from about 9 to midnight everyday, I was really excited to see my step mom on Sunday and start to get my Christmas up!
She is so amazing at holiday decor. She used to have a flower shop in Bella Vista and so she is very talented at arranging things. I saw a $350 arrangement at Sign, Sealed, and Delivered in Bentonville. I sent her a pic and she stopped by to see it so she could replicate it. She did such an amazing job, I even like hers better.
I am so lucky
I don't think the pics our work justice, but here they are.
PS....if anyone has any fabulous, signature dishes they make for the holidays, I would love to have the recipes. I need some unique recipes for a party I am having
ciao for now
