Got it off an email but I forgot from whom. Sowwy….but this is pretty good stuff!

Following is a ten point practical advise for the house holder to make the home a happy home by developing understanding for others (not with the mind but with the heart):-

1. Avoid the next quarrel:
Never lose temper at the same time. Don’t let the sun set on your quarrels (Never prolong fights if at all started). It is OK to say “I am sorry” to your spouse.

2. Do not expect perfection from your spouse:
Marriage is coming together of two imperfect beings. Don’t expect wife or husband to be like this or that, accept them as they are.

3. Be a Good Listener:
Don’t interrupt your spouse when he/she is speaking. Think before speaking, it is a good idea to weigh before you speak. You are master of unspoken words but slave of spoken words. Better than listening from ear is listening through mind (with attention) and better than that is listening from heart.

4. Be a good forgiver:
Some people forgive but they keep the memory alive or they forgive conditionally. Forgiveness should be complete and unconditional.

5. Grow in the spirit of humility:
Be humble. Egos bring arrogance which divide and separate people.

6. Learn the art of appreciation:
We all like to be appreciated. Not being appreciated by the spouses is one of the biggest complaint. Always appreciate in front of others. Never criticize your spouse in a company of friends and relatives, you will get opportunities in privacy.

7. Do not argue:
Winning love and friendship is far greater than winning an argument. It is OK to discuss with a open mind. Learn to win love and affection rather than arguments.

8. Develop a healthy sense of humor:
Learn to laugh and be cheerful. It is a great tonic for healthy living and being accepted by friends. It is important to laugh with others and NOT at others.

9. Always lend a helpful hand:
You will win over if you have this attitude of offering a helpful hand with or without asking.

10. Bring GOD back into your home:
This is one of the most important one. Have a common time for prayers. It brings families together. Families that pray together stays together.

I wrote a poem yesterday and then I forgot to bring my thumb drive! Haiz…..

Before PPP can even post any opportunity for this, I already had this button up. Why I had I it up so early? It was because I was desperate to post one of the opportunities yesterday and PPP was down for a scheduled maintenance moment. I was frozen, shock and keeping fingers crossed that I didn’t miss out on this opp! Thankfully, it went all ok and then I saw a new money making tool for blogs.

Yup, PPP Direct is brand new and what happens is advertisers [even those who are not in the PPP network] out there can actually pick you to advertise for them if they feel that your blog suits their market. They will be the ones who will give you the opportunities and amounts for which they are willing to pay you for. You can also set a minimum amount that you wish to be paid for every post you put up in your blog for them.

The unique thing about PPP Direct as compared to it’s competitors is that PPP Direct cuts out the massive overhead. This simply means that you’d be getting more from PPP Direct as they only charge you a measly 10% fee and half of that is the transaction fee for PayPal and credit card processing. Unlike ReviewMe which charges a huge markup between 50% to 100% - meaning that you’re only getting half of what you’re suppose to be getting! That’s just such a scam….

Anyhoo….you can check out more details here and watch an overview video  which is also provided. By the way, Andy Beard has done a pretty impressive summary of PPP Direct, go check it out! And after you’ve done your bit of checking these out, come back here and click on my button and JOIN!!

Moview Review : Spiderman 3

No spoilers in here but if you want it, it’s here

This movie obviously didn’t leave a lasting impression on me because I actually watched last week but kept posphoning the review until today since I have nothing to blog about. I have nothing against Spidey at all, in fact, I feel nothing for Spidey….but I still went to watch this because of all the talk and publicity. But mainly coz I noticed that Spidey turned bad in this movie. Mmmmmmwaaahahahaha!! 

SPIDERMAN 3!!!

  

All in all, it was rather action packed and I must say that many times, I was going, ‘Ouch….ooof…..esshhhh!’ from the ‘pain’ I felt when Spidey or whoever who was fighting got smashed into walls and steel pillars. There was a bit of drama here and there but for the life of me, I cannot stand Mary-Jane’s character which potrayed her to be so wimpy….imho but then again, I never even liked Kirsten Dunst for that matter. So having that wimpy, needy character just totally put me off. As for Spidey, I guess Toby Maguire played his part as he should, to the best he could and did a fairly good job but then again, I never watched any of the previous Spiderman movies so I wouldn’t know if he was better or worst.

All in all, I think if you gave it a miss, you wouldn’t regret it. It’s a touch and go kind of movie - to me, the deciding factor of if one should watch this or not is if you are a fan of Spiderman or not. If not, don’t bother paying good money for this. Save it for Pirates of the Carribean, opening today!!! *grins in anticipation* Me is SO going to catch this next Wednesday since I’m such a stingy poker…..why rush and pay more when I can wait till next week?? Heh….

 

‘Where backgammon masters are born’ - isn’t that just to catchy?? 

When you hear that a business is expanding on a global scale, you know that one thing’s for sure - they must be a pretty darn stable and potential business for continuous growth. BackgammonMasters which is backgammon online game company is now placing their attention on opening offices in Central America.

By focusing on the needs of individual regions, BackgammonMasters is able to provide popular games associated with the region. For the Latin Americans, the popular Spanish dice game, Perudo, is an addition to backgammon and poker, and soon to be added is blackjack. They also have their own animated series starring Jean-Claude, their tiger mascot. He looks mighty familiar, doesn’t he??

BackgammonMaster’s software is an all-in-one game concept where you only need to download the game from one site and once that is up and running, players can enter game lobby and select any game they want to play. The online game is developed for multi-player ability, has a realistic experience for the player due to its graphics and usability, in a fully supported playing environment. There is even talk of add more popular games for the Latin market in the near future.

If after all this talk, you’re wondering how the heck to get about playing backgammon, check out the backgammon rules coz frankly, I think I need to check it out too!

Superb Corporate strategy

Aloha Hawaii!!

When I think of Hawaii, I think of Consuela lying on a sandy white beach, with the always perfect sunset on the horizon, having Sex On The Beach with her beau. I pretty much see paradise. But it would be a long time coming before I see myself in Consuela’s position, lying on the a Hawaiian beach without a care but that wouldn’t stop me from at least planning my future vacation.

What I can see is me checking out Hawaiian Beach Rentals to source for all I need for that perfect holiday ie accomodation, car rental and the works! And all this is merely a click away…..very simple, just contact them and get one of the many Hawaiian vacation packages done for you, and voila! A perfect holiday will soon materialise right in front of your eyes…kind of.

Being a sucker for anything that’s got to do with animals, a stay in Makena Oceanfront Condo would be such a dream come true….imagine waking up to catch a glimpse of migrating whales at your window/balcony!!! Wow, a truly magnificent sight indeed…..*sighs blissfully* I want to go now!!!

 

Hawaii!!
