  • Laughter is the Emotional Medicine  By : suegold
    Did you know that laughter is contagious? It is. Laughter can be the best thing around. A positive person is more willing to accept a situation or if it needs improving they try to improve. A negative person is not willing to see anything good in the situation. A positive person is more open- minded. Does this mean that a person who laughs and enjoys being around others who are just as happy are more emotionally satisfied and happy. The answer to this is yes.

  • Top 10 Highest Rated UK TV Shows  By : Gen Wright
    If you aren't the kind of person who would ever dream of wandering around the Amazon then perhaps the 2nd highest rated series is for you. It is Joss Whedon's Firefly which is a personal favorite of mine. The TV series follows the crew of Serenity which is a "firefly class" spaceship; these 9 people look into the blackness of space and see 9 different things, as Joss Whedon described he crew himself.

  • Any Excuse - Why do Men Hate Christmas Shopping?  By : John Smith
    Personalised Christmas gifts such as mugs, calendars and even door mats often prove popular due to their humorous nature! They are also unique and appeal to people who do not want to have what everyone else gets for Christmas. Besides humorous Christmas gifts, one could obtain something of a more unusual nature such as grow-it-yourself gardens and plants for the more craft-minded individual. Considering that some males have a short attention span, an unusual gift reflects the notion that great effort was put into choosing it.
  • Why is There So Little Time  By : Donald Donaldson
    However, you can lead a horse to water but you cannot make it drink.

  • Tell me What You Want, What You Really Really Want: Girl Power Gifts  By : John Smith
    With apparent links to a third wave of feminism, the movement that was Girl Power was first associated with Riot Grrl, but later attached itself to bands such as Shampoo and the Spice Girls, who arguably used the term most effectively. Girl Power has even made it into the Oxford English Dictionary, where in 2001 it was defined as "a self-reliant attitude among girls and young women manifested in ambition, assertiveness, and individualism".
  • Dancing With the Stars - Men Versus Women: Is There an Advantage?  By : Kathy
    It is true there have been more male winners of Dancing with the Stars than female winners but I do not believe they won because they were males. I have faithfully watched the program; week after week and season after season and do not believe the sex of the contestant even is a factor in their scores for a given week. In fact, I believe the only thing that the sex of the contestants helps to determine on Dancing with the Stars is who their partner will be.
  • Oktoberfest is Coming! Time to Drink Up, Eat Well, And Study German  By : Dinah Leabeau
    Oktoberfest will once again be held in Munich, Germany from September 20 thru October 5, 2008. The Oktoberfest is a very valid reason to study German online, if just for the pleasure of actually being able to eloquate the myriad of food and drinks available in the 16-day event.
  • Why Winning Lotto is Not Good For Your Financial Future  By : Tim Jensen
    Could it be that the mentality that causes people to buy lottery tickets is the same mindset that loses those winnings. One of the proven points is that if people advance beyond where they are, whether it be financially or socially, that they eventually gravitate back to the level where they see themselves. (Eg. The image you have of yourself must also advance if you are to retain your financial status).
  • Reborn Baby Dolls  By : Kinkinmommy
    Not everyone understands reborning, the technique of Reborning has evolved over the past five years, as hobbyists and doll artists have refined the painting techniques and added technical enhancements, such as a heartbeat simulator.

  • I Am Going To Be Famous - Or Perhaps Not!  By : Paul Sims
    The comment above is one I have heard often in various places from numerous people, but the truth is most of them just do not have the talent, and those that do rarely make it to the big time. So you sing on Karaoke and at home, your mates think you are great so do your family, so you must have something, right? .. Wrong! Just because your friends and family say you are great does not mean that you are. Too often they do not tell you the truth. I have heard countless bad singers who think they are great because someone told them so, normally a friend or family member, when the reality is they sound like a moose gargling broken glass.
  • Art That Brighten Up Your Day  By : Steve Pak
    Sometimes, in a building, especially if the kids need to be checked-up by the doctor, other things are provided in order for them not to be bored. There are toys, coloring books and even story books that the children can read and play with while waiting for their turn. Parents more or less can just sit and relax while looking after their children playing either by themselves or with the other kids. For them not to get bored too, some owners of the building place unique wall art to create somewhat like a mini art gallery.

  • Unusual Insurance Claims And Policies  By : Patrick Chong
    At the last world cup, passions ran high, and weird insurance policies followed them.

  • To Play On The Bubble  By : Michael Binns
    Getting knocked out “on the bubble” or just outside the money is something that a lot of poker players dread.

    In the southwestern part of the USA, the Navajo, Hopi and Ute’s tribes have very similar yet somehow different stories about the Skinwalkers.

  • What Makes A Film Good?  By : Marc Hughes
    As a distributor I have never minded a negative review for one of our releases as long as it was reasoned and accurate. I might not have been happy about it, but if the critic was fair, then what else could we ask for? Instead, it has always been the kneejerk, unreasonable reviews that drive me nuts. Sometimes they don't even get the plot right. Last week a review of one of our recent video releases had just about every logistical detail of the film wrong. We're talking wrong country, wrong profession for the protagonist, wrong language spoken and wrong plot! Such inaccuracies are clearly not a firm foundation for a fair review.

  • Personal Dangers Of An Open Bar  By : US At Night
    Heading out for a night on the town it will be rare to find an open bar that simply gives the booze away free. These places are business to make money and offering a continuous open bar would be contrary to their business plan. However, it occasionally happens that an establishment will set aside a short time during which they will thank their customers for their past business by offering drinks on the house. In most of these instances, the owner will limit the number of free drinks available to each patron in the bar at the time to help them refrain from consuming more than they can handle.
  • Censored: Dancing Naked In The Corn  By : Patricia A. Jones
    None of those were tempting. The two things that put me off the most about traveling too far back in time are that women were second-class citizens until recent years and I would not voluntarily visit those times. Plus people ponged, they did not wash very often and I cannot stand the reek of BO on others or myself. I would really stand out from the crowd if I took my toiletries and probably be burned at the stake as a witch, would Doctor Who rescue me I wonder.

  • Intent An Illusion With Glow In The Dark Contact Lens  By : Jim Kesel

  • Signed, Sealed, And Delivered: From Chicken Soup For The American Idol Soul  By : Debra Poneman
    The first time I remember performing was during an assembly when I was four. I sang, "I'm a Little Teapot." But my mom told me that I really preferred doing Fred Astaire dance moves and singing songs like, "Steppin' Out with My Baby." I guess I have an old soul. When you're hardly out of diapers, you usually prefer songs from Barney. I preferred songs from Singin' in the Rain. My mom said she thought maybe I was the incarnation of Fred Astaire.
