Military

There is an interesting website for military footwear, boots, and even pants. I was looking at its pants called 5.11 Tactical Pants. There are very good image of each one and you can choose easily which one to buy. You can buy it online and cash out on the same website. In the product detail you may find some useful clips also.

UFO and ghost?

There is a Social Network about Paranormal and UFO and I would like to invite all of you to join it. UFOs and ghosts are topics that even the cutting edge science can not prove or disprove their existence. In addition, there are actually some facts which show they do exist. For example there have been some electromagnetic wave coming from space recorded many years ago and we still do not know what was the origin of this sound. I have recorded a video in which I look like a person with an infinite space in the background! May be those who come from outer space would like it!


new blogs coming

I have started new blogs which will show up on internet soon. They cover a wide rang of topics. Basically the topic of FrogHelp changed a lot and new posts include hot news also. So stay tuned and check those websites also.

breakage

Today I am going to review a site http://www.Northidahorebates.com which belongs to North Idaho Rebates. What they say about their company is here: " The North Idaho Rebate Team is Offering Rebates on real estate transactions up to $10,000 for byers and sellers. Our goal is give back to buyers."

Well, I asked myself that how it works. They claim that they pay buyers a rebate up to $10,000 regardless of who the home is listed with so long as the buyers retain these guys to represent them as buyer agent in the transaction.

The other part of the offer is as follows. They will pay those who want to sell their homes a $3,000 rebate at closing and $10,000 rebate at closing if they don't sell their home in 65 days. That means they are kind of guaranteeing a quick home selling. So you will get your money quickly.

Here I should explain the idea of "Breakage". Insurance, coupon and rebate programs like Cash Rewards work on the concept of "breakage". Breakage is the statistical difference between the number or coupons, rewards, policies, etc. issued, and those that are collected or paid. Have you ever bought an item and received a rebate coupon in the box it came in but never sent it in? That's breakage. Breakage can be quantified, tracked and projected. The mathematical term for such statistics is "actuarial data". Actuarial data is used by companies when offering a payout, the total of all such commitments typically being larger than the sum total of the company's premium payments.

Another important point they say in their site is here : "we want the seller to feel empowered and confident that they are hiring a firm that will work for them and will be held accountable." That means they want to do a good job. They also add another explanation about the rebate " It is simply a financial reward that is paid for by the sponsor (in this case, The North Idaho Rebate Team) and offered to you at point of purchase/sale." Check their website for more information if you want to buy or sell a property.

not a member of facebook

I am not a member of facebook and I like not to be a member of it. The reason is obvious. I am saving a lot of time! But I like it anyway. Because you may unexpected friends.

social networks

You may have seen social networks on internet and you might be a member of some of them. But there is a social network which has its own features: You can meet you new or old friends in it and you may share your photos or albums with others. You can also join a special group or blog and more important you can chat with other members. The point which makes it different is that you can actually hear last mp3 hits. There we go! If you liked it go ahead and join 3gb community www.3gb.biz

How important is a kitchen scale?

If you really care about your weight and if you really care about the number of calories you eat every day then you should have a kitchen scale. The nutrition facts of most raw stuff in the kitchen are known, so you just need a scale to weight them and calculate the total calories you get every day. Then you will know better how many calories you should burn!

scale

Whenever I buy some meat I want to weight it and divide it into few parts to put each piece in a different plastic bag in fridge. This way I save my time and I also keep my diet healthy. For this purpose I need a scale. They are many kinds of them and you can of course find some digital scales.
I like the digital one because they are easy to use and they do not take much room in my little kitchen. They are also affordable. One good point about these digital sale is that they are made in different colors. So if you have a red set of plates you can get a red scale also!

Financial plans

I have been thinking all day that I should have a financial plan for my near future. As a student whose only financial support is the assistantship from the University, I should have a work plan beside my studies. It could be a work which need a little investment but makes a big difference in my monthly income. I was always lazy to follow up my plans but I think I should do that to make some money.

Personilzed Gifts



I always liked to find a place where I could change my childhood photos into a piece of art work like a painting and I think I have found it. There is a website where you can actually change your photos into something like paintings on convas. Especially if you are looking for some personalized mothers day gifts you can pick up one of your family photos and use this site to change it into a nice piece of art.




tuning a laser

You know how interesting it is when you send a beam into a house made laser's cavity and monitor its power is going up. The process of aligning the cavity is so tricky that I always compare it with brain surgery (I actually do not know how tricky that is though!). Unfortunately we can not use our laser for medical purposes.

overseas properties

If you plan to buy a property overseas you may want to consult one of those overseas property agents. It is very interesting that you can do such a thing on the internet and check the prices for different locations. There are investment property experts who can help you find the best place for the lowest price.

The countries that you can choose your properties from are Brazil, Egypt, Bulgaria, Malaysia, Spain and Turkey. If you really think about it, it is always easier to have an idea of what you want to buy before you plan to go and have a visit and decide. To do that you can have a look a the pictures of the property and its location on internet and gather as much information as possible.

It is always good to know what you want to know with your money. You may want to go for a "rental investment" or you may want to buy a place as just a "holiday home". If you can do your job from any where in the world then you may want to consider a nice overseas property for your "permanent living".

In any case you can find all the information you need online and have a look at the prices.

Africa

"Forty years after King was gunned down on April 4th the challenges that King faced, and that civil rights leaders still face four decades after his assassination are even greater says author and political analyst Earl Ofari Hutchinson.

Now, civil rights leaders must confront the indifference, even outright hostility, of many white and non-white Americans to affirmative action, increased spending on social programs, and civil rights marches, and the tormenting plight of the urban black poor, says Hutchinson.

The chronic problems of gang, and drug violence, family breakdown, police abuse, the soaring incarceration rate of young black males, the mounting devastation of HIV and AIDS disease in black communities, abysmally failing inner city public schools, says Hutchinson, have made things even worse for African-Americans. The mostly middle-class civil rights leaders at times have seemed clueless on how to get a handle on those problems.

The furious internal fights among blacks over gay marriage, abortion, and immigration have tormented, perplexed, and forced civil rights leaders to confront their own gender and political biases.

Forty years after King’s murder, the weighty challenges that face African-Americans perplex and frustrate many blacks, says Hutchinson ."

I found the press release above in www.prbuzz.com , written by Earl Ofari Hutchinson. Hutchinson is a nationally acclaimed author and political analyst as mentioned in his blog http://earlofarihutchinson.blogspot.com. I am not a fan of politics and I do not like using the words "black" and "white". But it seems that we still see problems in Africa and politicians have to think about it. I like the freedom in North America and I wish we see the freedom everywhere in the world.





Cranberry: nutrition fact




The cranberry is a source of the minerals calcium, magnesium, potassium, and phosphorus, plus various vitamins like Vitamin A, Vitamin B1 Thiamine, Vitamin B2 Riboflavin, Vitamin B2 Complex Niacin. Cranberry is also rich in vitamin C (Ascorbic Acid) and phytonutrients, including flavonoids such as proanthocyanidins (OPC) which are beneficial antioxidants.
One cup of cranberries contains about 44 calories. One can of cranberry sauce contains about 600 calories, so be very cautious when dipping into the cranberry sauce while dieting.

Overall, studies have demonstrated that cranberry juice is equivalent to red wine with respect to polyphenol content, antioxidant activity, and vasodilator activity. Although preliminary, the results show that cranberry juice should definitely be a part of a heart-healthy diet.

bull riders!

If you haven't got your Professional Bull Riders finals tickets you should do that as soon as possible! The Professional Bull Riders World Finals will be held in Las Vegas, Nevada and the tickets will be sold out soon I guess. I want to plan a trip to Las Vegas to attend this exciting event. I have watched the competition before on TV, but this time I would like to try it live and at the right place where it is really happening!

If you search "bull riders" in youtube you will get a big list of exciting clips, but none of them give you the feeling of being in the stadium. Last year PBR announced that they will be partnering with some video game companies to produce video games for Wii, Xbox 360, etc. But again if you are a fan of those games , you know that it won't be as wonderful as the real game!

Last year I was watching Justin McBride, a two-time PBR World Champion, in the final competition and it was so exciting that I decided to attend next year. The Professional Bull Riders World Finals have been held in Las Vegas since 1994. I am sure I will have a lot of fun over there this year. Hope to see you there also!

Cranberry harvest



The nice picture above shows the cranberry harvest. It is a very typical way of harvesting a fruit. I am including a couple short clips about that also.

Happy birthday sweety!

There is a place on internet where you can buy large number of birthday cards for a cheaper price and use them whenever you need. The most important reasons for doing that are :
  1. You save your time.
  2. You save your money.
  3. You can personalize your cards easily.
  4. You are always prepared.
Shopping online always save you time. You select your cards, order them and you receive them by post at home. Isn't that easy? Most cards are as cheap as $2. So for every card that you buy in a store you can buy two cards from this online card store.

When I want to buy a card in a store, I always have this problem that you can not modify the cards. Your choices are limited to what is in the store and you can not change the cards. But if you buy your cards online then you can personalize them and add your own messages to them. The messages will be printed and will not be hand written any more!

I have selected a card and modified it to have the sentence "Happy birthday sweaty" written in it. It is not only birthday cards that you can find there. You can select any greeting card or holiday card you want and they are all cheap and nice.
