On personal meet with Paramita, I haven't met them before for the new rock era, but here's a short story that I like to share. ( read more below)


Marco de leon, the guitarist of Paramita. Met him tru his brother, LC de leon (lead man for Reklamo band) it was during the 2007 year hype for Transformers the movie and Toycon 2007.
We hang out and then Marco helped us out in our Transformers Philippines booth at the Toycon 2007 and Transformers movie merchandise launch in Megamall, and together too with LC.

after the hype, I just learned that Marco is the lead guitarist for Paramita, and also one of the original members of the band. I was shocked to learn the news and now Im seeing them perform and also hear their hits on the radio. Haven't told Marco yet that I met the band fromm the year, let me guess time of year 1999 or 2000 or 2001.

flash back to that year when I was still in the rock and roll indie days and I hang out to the art venue called, Oracafe. I did some rock gig productions back then and after I left my studies and roam around in the indie world, i learned a lot from that venue about music, films and some indie philosophies. I went to Oracafe one night and I was enjoying my beer at the bar, then It was a night of band auditions and I got a chance to see some great bands during the fresh years.

but the event manager of the venue is not around and also Khavn (owner of the venue) is not around too, my friendly bar manager-tender told me to screen the band audition for them that night. It was funny and also got serious into it hhahaha.

first band was Blue jeans junkies, after hearing their music and watch their performance they gave an envelope with band profiles, pics, cover song list, history, and original music with lyrics. The band lead man - Nino Mendoza asked me if they are in for the band line up on the next gig, I told them a positive review and I said, "yes youre band is in"

then the next band was setting up while I drink my beer and chat with people inside the bar, I was busy reviewing lots of band audition profiles then I was surprised that the band told me that they are ready, I said, "ok, you guys can play now". then I turned my back at them and went to the bar and make "kulit" to the bar tender to give me some more oatmeal cookies.

while chomping and eating and also drinking, the band played while I'm not watching, because during band auditions and when I'm going to screen them, I always learn first how to listen to their music while not watching. Then a female voice filled the bar, singing and the crowd began busy watching to the stage. I was surprised too, then I stand up and wonder "where the hell is the vocalist!" Then we saw a female in the percussion in her short hair appearance that I mistaken her as a guy, she was behind the other 2 band member coz its hard to see and watch the vocalist from behind the drums, she's hitting the snare and bass drum and then singing. I said, wow! then I check the name of the band it was called - Paramita.

After they play, Ria looked at me and told me how was it, and I said in a positive reply. "Yes! you're band is In" with two thumbs up!, After that I can't remember what happened, can't even remmeber the songs they play if it is a cover or an original, it was a long time ago before digital camera and ipods are popular. Then after months of that year, Oracafe closed down. One by one other venues were closing too. But I'm glad that I saw Paramita again after those rocking years and they are well.

thats a short story, so excited to tell them about this heehhhe.

Gary Lising Book Launch - Spend April Fools’ Day with Gary Lising

yeah! I might be there and meet the Gary Lising dude! Time to meet our greatest comedians, the last time I met a comedian is inside a rainy FX ride going to DLSU, and I lost my PR side when I'm sitting with the great Palito. I know in Gary Lising event this will be more funny, dirty and some say -sexy hahaha.

Celebrity comedian Gary Lising adds three new titles to his list of best-selling humor books, a compilation of the best jokes to have come in and out of this country the last 10 years. Confessions of a D.O.M. (Delightful Old Man), Lifestyles of the Poor and Unknown, and Everything You Wanted to Know About Sex But Were Afraid to Ask Your Children, all published by Anvil Publishing, prove that Gary Lising is without doubt a comedian par excellence, an original who can come up with newly minted jokes at the expense of unsuspecting friends and colleagues. The new titles carry his signature wit and charm, making him stand out among Filipino comedians. Lising's panache for humor, says buddy Poch Borromeo of GNC LiveWell, is 'a rare gift of providence.'

Confessions of a D.O.M. (Delightful Old Man), Lifestyles of the Poor and Unknown, and Everything You Wanted to Know About Sex But Were Afraid to Ask Your Children will be launched on April 1 (or April Fools’ Day), 5 – 7 pm, at Powerbooks Megamall A in Ortigas Center, Mandaluyong City.

Join us in this one-of-a-kind event and have your copies signed by none other than Gary Lising himself! For inquiries you may contact the Anvil Marketing Department at 637-5692.

sunny sunday and blisters

Its a hot Sunday today and I'm having lots of trouble putting myself inside the shelter, don't know where to go and where to hid my butt from the hot sun. Yesterday I got painful blisters in my right palm and I got it from using the mouse of my laptop while doing some net task for the day, which result me from slowing down, so I did some net task and resume some of it awhile ago.

But the sun is too hot today and I'm fighting for it by drinking lots of water and also ice cold Iced tea. Just watched tv and some downloaded stuff while we wait the sun go away and continue our work here at home in the evening. Still my blister in my right palm hurts and it begins to show some oily part and rubbing or massaging it is not helpful. So I rest my hand in the morning and eat lot of food in order to fight again with the sun.

my butt got blisters too. its so hot and maybe I should take a bath every 1 hour from 12nn-4pm.

now I'm dreaming of hitting the beach and take a cold dip in the water and enjoy the day in the shades. read more below after the jump




many people are asking or wondering why do I wear shades everyday and why do I wear it and use it as a headband. Well, my good answer is that I always wear sun glasses everytime I go out and if theres any extreme light like the sun, because I'm protecting my eyes from very extreme light that is very harmful to my eyes, you see that Im a PC-person, means I always use the computer daily and the light that bounce back to my eyes at home is very different and the light that comes from my laptop or PC is different than the light outside.

whenever I go out, I wear my shades and I don't go out without them, If I left my shades at home, I go to the mall and buy a new one just for me to protect my eyes from the hot rays of the sun. I only buy UV coated shades and never buy shades that is being sold in our local bangketas, because they are not UV coated and the lens are graded and it is very harmful to our eyes, thats why some people say that they get dizzy when they wear cheap shades.

The bright sun affects my vision big time!, and it will result a big headache later on after going indoors, thats why you see me wearing reading glasses because the lens in my glasses makes my eyes get a correct focus and filters the bad UV rays of the sun.

So thats my answer today for those who still wonders why I wear my shades while Im indoors, next time I'll post why I wear the same shirt or why is it that I carry a big back pack hahaha. some of my old friends already know the answer.

Salicylate Free Shampoos

If you or a family member has sensitive skin, you have likely tried several types of makeup, lotions and shampoos that claim to be hypo allergenic personal care products. It can be very frustrating trying to narrow down exactly what it is you are allergic to in these personal care products. Perfumes can sometimes be the culprit, as can dyes that are used. There is, however, a substance that is commonly found in many products labeled "natural" that can cause problems for sensitive skin, and that is salicylic acid. Because it is derived from plants, it is a common ingredient in makeup, shampoo, perfume, lotions, and many other items that we rely on daily to help us look our best. For those with sensitive skin, using safe personal care products that are salicylate free shampoos can be the answer to not only feeling better but also having great looking skin and hair. Hypo allergenic personal care products such as salicylate free shampoos offer you the advantage of beautiful, clean hair that does not leave your scalp feeling itchy. These shampoos will add volume to your tresses, and will do it without resorting to chemicals that cause allergic reactions in many users.

Another group of hypo allergenic personal care products include deodorants. If you shave your underarms, you know how painful it can be to apply a deodorant immediately to the area, and especially so if it causes your skin to break out in an itchy rash. Instead, there are women's personal care products like deodorants that come in hypo allergenic forms that take away the pain and leave you feeling fresh all day. Washing your hands is something you do repeatedly throughout the day to eliminate germs. The unfortunate side effect of all this exposure to soap is a drying out of the skin on your hands, leaving them feeling rough and uncomfortable. Glycerin soap is one of the hypo allergenic personal care products that you can use regularly that will not be harsh to your hands, but will leave them clean and smooth. These soaps also sometimes come with shea butter, a natural sun screen, so that you can moisturize, clean and protect from harmful ultra violet rays all at the same time.

Mineral Makeup Brush

When you buy cosmetics online and you have skin allergies, you will want to focus on cosmetic products that will not irritate your skin yet will also help you to look great. Mineral cosmetics can be the answer to your sensitive skin issues. Mineral cosmetics are available that are also formulated without irritating dyes, perfumes and other toxins found in traditional makeup ingredients, so that you can wear these products on your sensitive facial skin with confidence. That confidence comes from the fact that not only are these mineral cosmetics healthy for your skin, but they also help to make you look fabulous. They provide a light yet comprehensive coverage that offers the added benefit of not clogging your pores with heavy makeup residue. Another health advantage that comes from using mineral cosmetics is that they are comprised in part of minerals that protect your skin from sun and wind damage, so that no additional sunscreens are needed.

Many women buy cosmetics online, including mineral cosmetics, because it saves both time and money. At your leisure you can shop from the comfort of your home at a time that fits within your schedule, without having to circle the parking lot at the mall or deal with rushed sales staff. You will find that women's cosmetic products come in a full range of mineral-based makeup items. You can choose from foundation, concealer, eye shadow and lip gloss, as well as a host of makeup brushes and applicators. Mineral makeup eyeshadow is one product choice that will bring out the beauty in your eyes. You will find eyeshadows in both loose and pressed forms to best meet your specific needs. They will not fade or crease, and will give your eyes a sultry allure that will help them look their best all day and throughout the evening.

Many women would not think of leaving the house without at least some lip color on, and now those with sensitive skin can choose mineral makeup lip gloss for that purpose. You can easily buy cosmetics online, including these luscious lip glosses, that not only come in sexy colors but will also function as a sunscreen for your lips. When you buy cosmetics online, you will not want to forget the appropriate mineral makeup brush. You can find retractable lip brushes, blush and concealer brushes, all suited to specific types of makeup applications. These non-allergenic makeup products provide a sought-after solution for those with sensitive skin to buy cosmetics online that utilize minerals as a primary ingredient.

Using Natural Skin Care Products

Using natural skin care products. Most women use skin care products practically every day of the year. There are lotions, oils and balms for nearly every part of the body, with some especially suitable for use on the hands and face. You can find skin care facial products, hand and body lotion, and even anti aging skin care products that will help to replenish lost moisture in the skin, making it appear more youthful. One type of oil that many women find particularly appealing is emu oil, both for its emollient nature and its anti-inflammatory properties. Emu oil comes from the Emu bird, which is a native of Australia. The fat from the Emu bird is rendered down to produce emu oil. Aboriginals in Australia have used emu oil for hundreds of years as a way to protect the skin from the damaging effects of the elements. It does, however, also contain medicinal qualities as well.

Originally this oil was noted by the Australian Aboriginals for its ability to relieve pain and heal cuts. Modern doctors have now also corroborated these findings as well. Pure emu oil has been used to help arthritis sufferers because of its ability to reduce inflammation in joints. Emu oil has also been used by those who suffer from muscle pain. After a hard workout or an injury, sore muscles respond favorably to the chemical components in this amazing oil, reducing the ache and helping you to feel better.

If you've ever had a burn, you know the terrible pain caused from exposure to high heat. Pure emu oil has been shown to reduce the pain from burns, and the burns show an increased likelihood to heal promptly. Scarring is lessened as well when Emu oil is applied to the damaged area. Those who deal with acne will like Emu oil, because it penetrates the skin very easily, yet does not clog your pores like so many other heavy lotions can. Eczema, with its skin irritation and recurrent rash symptoms, can often be helped with the application of this oil to the affected areas, which are often found on the hands. Emu oil is a one of a small group of natural skin care products that can be used by those with certain physical afflictions to excellent effect. It's also a wonderful beauty treatment that can be enjoyed by those who need skin care facial products especially suited to sensitive skin.

What is a Voice-Over?

" A voice over is any recording or performance by one or more unseen voices for the purpose of communicating a message" – James Alburger. Any message you hear without seeing the performer is considered to be voice-over. This means voice-over is all around us! Whether you are listening to the radio, watching movies or television, dining at your fast food restaurant or riding the rail transit, voice-overs can be heard!

Is doing Voice-overs hard?

Voice-overs can actually be done by anyone! And it's a very rewarding job indeed. A lot of Voice Talents are being paid to play and many professional voice-overs get their kick out of the industry just by enjoying what they do. Anybody can do a voice-over, but not everybody can do voice acting.

So what is Voice Acting?

Voice acting is an art. And like all other art forms it has tools and techniques which must be mastered in order for you to succeed in the level of success you want to deserve. Its about finding the kid in you. It requires dedication and passion for doing Voice-over jobs, and lots of patience to master the skills. True, not everyone can do voice acting, but anybody can benefit from learning how it works. In fact, many of the students in Creativoices Clinic don't pursue voice-over jobs, but need the voice acting skills to further themselves in their chosen field.

How do I benefit from Voice Acting lessons?

If you want to break into the world of voice-overs, then voice acting is a must for you. By knowing how to express yourself properly, you can create real and believable characters for commercials, narrations, radio drama and most especially animation. With voice acting you can liven up a conversation and get the attention you want, whether its on a business or a personal level. If you or your job requires you to:

1. Communicate with other people on the same or higher business level.
2. Prepare Scripts, Write-ups or Citations for Productions
3. Talk to customers or clients and close business deals fast and efficient.
4. Constantly talk to other people and associates by way of declamation, speech or impromptu performance.
5. Or maybe you love to sing, host or perform for an audience.
6. Express yourself in a creative and entertaining manner.

Who can do Voice-Acting?

Anyone who needs to talk can communicate better when he/she uses voice acting techniques. Which means that even salespersons, promodizers, carpenters, engineers, attorneys, teachers, draftsmen, doctors, nurses, utility personnel, front desk officers, etc.. can learn voice acting, and benefit from expressing or communicating properly and creatively, with their peers.

What about Creativoices Clinic?

Creativoices Clinic is one of the departments of Creativoices Productions – the premier voice over solutions provider in the country. And it is now offering the Creative Voice Acting Workshop, the only one of its kind in the Philippines today. There are many voice acting schools abroad and many Voice talents offering "experience" based teaching, but none offers a detailed and thorough application and training by book and modules like Creativoices Clinic.

1. Personalized, one on one voice coaching and training throughout the workshop - from real and credible Voice Acting Professionals

3. Create real and believable characters from within you and learn how to bring them back when needed.

5. Professional Critiques to hear and identify your voice qualities and problems.

Turning your Voice into Gold.

Much has been said about the skills and talent one must posses to entertain anyone with their voice. Some of us for years, have adored cartoons, anime and telenovela without noticing the most important factor in the show – the voice actor. Many of us dream to take part in a role that will define a popular koreanovela or anime series in television.

So what do you do, to find your way into the business of voice acting? How do you even start auditioning for the roles? What can you do to make your voice silly and make a living out of it. Fortunately there's an easy and effective way to learn this.

From the creators of the Philippine Center for Voice Acting that gave you the first International-based Voice Over Acting Clinic.. CreatiVoices Productions present: VoiceWorx! Basic Voice Acting Workshop.

The seminar features some of the Philippine's best Voice Actors converging into one comprehensive and targeted VO seminar for the voice actor at heart, enthusiasts and those who wish to explore their potential in the arts.

It covers 8 intensive sessions about 2-3 hours each on the art of voice acting, managing your vocal investment, characterization, trade history, and skills and techniques to jumpstart your career in voiceovers. This seminar highlights dubbing for anime and telenovela, taught by leading experts in the field of Television Dubbing.

Participating in this workshop is the father of Dubbing in the Philippines, Danny Mandia who teaches voice acting for dubbers, his direction and supervision includes some of the most beloved animated films in Filipino including, Inuyasha, Zenki, Dog of Flanders, B'Tx, Rorouni Kenshin, Starship Operators, Capricorn, Saber Marionette, and hundreds of others.. Industry experts say you cannot be a "real" dubber without passing through Manny's direction.

Also appearing in the workshop is Alexx Agcaoili, the very talented voice actor and Director for Filipino anime productions like, Fruits Basket, Rave Master, Mobile Suit Gundam, Neon Genesis Evangelion, Beast Machines, Supergals, Babel 1 and 2, Green Rose, and many more. Taking the role of Dr. Smith in the original Filipino Voltes V and Sanosuke Kagara in Samurai X (Rorouni Kenshin). His contribution to the workshop will be in direct supervision of the recording process and applications of voice acting.

The two is teamed up with writer and translator for television, Neil Tolentino. A well known veteran writer in the industry of dubbing. He will cover familiarity with translation, writing skills and techniques for anime and telenovela. As he says, "You should not only know how to act, but to write what you're supposed to act.." Directing in Fortune Quest L, and Saber Marionnet J to X, is just a few of the hundreds of animes and telenovelas he has helped become a success.

Leading the seminar is veteran Voice Performer Brian Mathew Ligsay, who started out as a deejay when he was just 16. Now turning 29, he is the Marketing Director and Chief Operating Officer of CreatiVoices Productions, a company with a platoon of 200 Voice over talents at their disposal. He adds, " Voice acting is an art.. it's a passion. You speak by heart and you work by heart.." He has done thousands of voiceover jobs for narrations, live events, AVPs, the internet, original animation, gaming, multi-media, radio and television dubbing. Credited to his work in anime is his role in the animated series BECK wherein he took 18 character roles in the show. Brian is also a director, producer and writer for original content. He has recently directed and voice casted 2 international animation films in Korea and India.

Pocholo Gonzales steps in as the moderator of the group - a multi-awarded voice talent who outlasts the number of voices he can make. Whenever you hear a Mike Enriquez, Mark Logan, Babalu, FVR, Erap, Juan Flavier sound alike on radio, expect that to be Pocholo. He can do more than 100 voices at any given time and is the CEO and Managing Director of CreatiVoices Productions. Saying, "This seminar is a US-based Voice Over training workshop, localized to fit the Filipino Market.." His exposure to Commercials for Radio and Television provides an extensive source of industry norms and practices one must understand in order to break into the business.

The Workshop which is limited to 10 students per class and starts this new year on April 12, 2008, for the regular classes which is held once a week for 8 Saturdays. Pilot classes are also offered for group attendance, which compresses the entire workshop to about 1 session per day, Mondays to Fridays, so you can finish the seminar in 8 consecutive days. Both offer the same content, but they recommend you take the regular classes if you are just starting in the industry.

"Whatever your skills are, voice acting can help you out..." Ligsay adds. "Any form of verbal communication can be effectively delivered with the use of voice acting. If you constantly work and meet people, write scripts for events, engage in sales or you just want to boost your speaking performance... then this workshop is a must."

Enthusiasts can call 729-7274 for registration, drop by at their office at the

3rd flr Left Wing (Lightblue bldg) 1745 Dian St Palanan Makati City. You can visit their website at www.creativoices.com or email brian@creativoices.com for details about this exciting event.

there's a HP raffle at the end of the event, but we left early that night in order for us to sleep early for a morning work the other way. me still got a mild hang over from last night, although that I didn't dance or jump on the crowd, I'm still checking out the other entries from the past contest of designing a laptop skin. There are pinoys who joined the contest, but the competition is very difficult, and all of them are great!

hope they can release a sticker skin for my laptop

Designer Jewelries for Men

Gone are days when jewelries were meant primarily for women. They now form an integral aspect of a men's fashion as well. However, the idea of men using jewelries to add an extra spark to their attire is not entirely modern. A look at the past will reveal that men considered jewelry as a symbol of royalty and well-being. As years have gone by, the designs have evolved to compliment the contemporary fashion. Men’s designer jewelries are handcrafted to go with their corporate, professional and casual styles. Rings belong to the class of most popular forms of men’s jewelry. They are available in a variety of shapes and sizes to fit the style of diverse fashion preferences of men. Usually men’s rings look heavier and bolder as compared to women’s. Inscribed, hand-engraved rings adds a new dimension altogether. A short piece of poetry or even one’s name engraved on a ring gives it an identity of its own.

Who said that necklaces are meant for women? They are meant for men too. Unlike women, men usually do not prefer to wear a glittering necklace. Even though they may be golden, beaded or having glass, a certain element of boldness is always there to give it a look that is meant exclusively for men. A lot depends on the kind of occasion when the necklace is to be worn. Wedding or any royal affair can definitely have a sparkling designer necklace whereas darker and colorful necklace go down pretty well with casual attire. Bracelets are another form of popular men’s jewelry. Men are always conscious about their wrists and that explains why they like to sport snazzy watches. Hand engraved designer bracelets adds up as good decorative for the wrist. Men with good forearms can sport a broad bracelet and the ones with small frame can go for the narrower ones. Designer jewelry for men has increasing become very popular due to the celebrities. Rings, body piercing, necklaces, bracelets and even earring have become fashionable for men. The variety is diverse and what matters is to choose the right kind of jewelry that compliments one’s personality perfectly.

Az gag video blog - Jollibee mascot funny time inside the elevator

On this incident, I forgot that Jollibee is only a mascot and went to shoot this moment and me feeling like an 8-year old kid who loves burger yum and jolly spaghetti. After going inside the mall, we saw people crowding up in a small area near the elevetor and then we saw Jollibee mascot doing some funny moves, like pretending that he's a statue, call and uses a public phone, hides himself behind the crowd, but when the elevator opens the people inside were surprise to see him going in. I took a video to record some of his funny gags and made fun of him doing some "alembong" actions.

taking a day off

I'm taking a day off and no one can stop me from having a day rest. I was so confident yesterday that I can make a lot of stuff today but later on my body becomes so weak after taking 6 hours of sleep last night. Went a lot of bus horror moment and also jeep ride that you will curse the day in your life, Im talking about my travel yesterday, but I was rewarded after that when I finally arrived in my aunt and uncle's house in Laguna which gave me a lot of boost up for the last 3 hours going back to Manila and to Megamall for a business meeting, which is very successful and made it and everyone in my meeting is happy to see me made it to shoot that ball before the shot clock.

I've learned a lesson too, I will never ride a jeepney going from Pasay to Alabang ever again. The service road almost killed me and that waiting hours of the ordinary bus going to Laguna, which drained my energy for that day, and also don't take a quick bath when you arrived home. I was so tired when I arrived home at 12 midnight from my meeting and dinner with my colleagues and my body is tired and hot , so I decided to take a quick cold bath. which result some body pains and aches after a few minutes of my shower. asar! napasma ata ako!

but even that I'm so tired that day, I'm happy that I met again my relatives, finished a closed door meeting, ate a great dinner, met a great comic artist in Kenny Rogers, the Palabok and puto meal in Laguna, watching White Chicks movie inside a new aircon bus going to Manila, even that I don't like the movie it left me laughing with the bus passengers, drinking hot coffee today, eating a super jumbo size siopao from MXT and misses this carrot cake baked by Lace (photo above)

now I'm excited on the coming events that I'm participating the coming days and next weekend.

Graphic refresh

I'm here in the mall and refreshing my mind, I got a dead mind a while ago during my working hours, just got bugged by this gross news from the radio, and I can't avoid it, I placed headphones on my ears and listens to rock music just to make myself not get distracted what I hear.

Its a great aura here in the mall because I just helped a friend who has a rock gig productions for April and I did a fast layout on their rock poster, which resulted to a kick ass one, heheh, just downloaded some images in stock photo sites and use that in the background and grabbed and cut some free royalty images and use it as one of my components for the poster. I enjoyed the layout hahaha, its been ages for me to design a rock poster and my last was more than 10 years ago.

good to refresh again and now I'm going back home to do some other works I left while ago. For other designs needed for my event, I haven't think of a great concept for that. It is still not coming to my mind and it is plain difficult to think an idea. maybe i'll try out later after doing some web task for my work.

beep! beep! thats my cellphone beeping, just received from a friend that we will have a meeting tomorrow night and I need to bring some images needed to be attached on our letter. and oh my! forgot that I'll be making the marketing kit ..yikes! need to cram before midnight heehe. I'm glad that the new best web hosting I got is performing nice and I'm thinking of getting a new one for the next month for another personal web project.

lots of events coming this weekend, and yeah! and also a big presentation awaits for me this Saturday.. need to pray.

hi to Tom Pomplum, he's reading this blog, or maybe my other blog Komiks news Now.

ok, thats all and I might post more comic related entry here in Azrael's Merryland!
wooosshhh!!! -end credits rolls-

Hair Extensions The look and feel of

Hair extensions first made an appearance in the 1980s but were soon dismissed as a fad but now it seems they are back and this time they are here to stay. Over recent years more and more celebrities have been seen sporting them and now it seems pretty much anyone can get hair extensions in some form. They are primarily used to add length to you hair but can also serve other functions such as being a way of adding volume to thinning hair or as a way of experimenting with colour. The possibilities surrounding the use of hair extensions are endless and they can dramatically change your look. You could decide you merely want a new look for a night out or special occasions, in which case you should opt for the clip in hair extensions as these are pretty much self explanatory; they just clip to your existing hair and can be taken out when the night is over. There are also many ways in which you can have your hair extensions applied such as glue, fusion bonding or clipped in. Different methods can sometimes be the deciding factor of how long your hair extensions will last for and also the deciding factor of whether your hair extensions will cause damage to your hair. The important factor when it comes to hair extensions is deciding which ones are best for you and making the decision of whether they will suit you. You should discuss your thoughts about hair extensions with your hairdresser/stylist as they will be able to give you the most valuable advice about whether hair extensions would be suitable for your hair type and if so which ones will work best with your natural hair.

There are many considerations to take into account when it comes to getting hair extensions and there are also numerous questions that people hold about them such as what they will look and feel like; well hair extensions, whether you have human hair or synthetic are expertly matched to your own hair and colour and are applied so that you wont see any ridges or kinks where the hair extensions attach to your own hair. Your hair extensions will most likely not look or feel different from your natural hair and no one should be able to tell you are even wearing them due to the extensions being matched to your own hair colour. When hair extensions are applied to your natural hair they should intertwine and in effect create the perfect illusion to make your hair and your hair extensions look completely natural. Many people often worry that wearing hair extensions will make their hair feel heavy. This however isn’t true. When your hair extensions are applied they will feel different from your natural hair and slightly more heavy for the first few hours but that is it and the reason behind that is purely because you are used to having short hair but once the extensions have been in for a few hours your extensions will just feel like your natural hair.

just pasting this here and share it to everyone!!!
astig!!!

I'm helping my friend to test this new Youtube.com video feature.
you can watch the video below and see how the new feature works!

Women's Running Shoes Running Tips:

Running is a great choice for women looking for an exercise program. Women make greater gains in their times and conditioning compared with men, and it’s a great way to lose weight after a pregnancy. Running requires little money and is flexible (you don’t have to schedule a class). But there are some things women need to be aware of when running, for it’s a rigorous sport and can take its toll over time if done carelessly. Several reports indicate that knee injuries in particular are more common among women than among men. The reasons given have to do with leg alignment, muscle strength, and joint laxity or looseness. In general, women have wider pelvises than men do, which makes for a corresponding larger quadriceps angle, meaning the hips come down to the knees at a sharper angle. This puts more stress on the kness, making them more vulnerable to injury. Sports physicians often refer to a condition common in women called ""the terrible triad"", in which a wider pelvis causes legs to be more knock-kneed.

The name stability creates some confusion as a category of shoes alongside the motion-control category because motion-control shoes are the most stable but provide a bit more cushioning than motion-control shoes do. Cushioning refers to the softness of the midsole. A softer midsole will absorb the force of impact better than a firmer midsole will; it also allows more foot motion. Stability shoes are usually built on a semicurved last, which allows more foot motion than a straight last does. Several models, however, contain a medial post or an area of dense midsole material along the inner side of the shoe to prevent too much motion. Cushioned shoes have the softest midsoles and provide the best shock absorption. Sounds ideal for any runner, doesn't it? Cushioning is not for everyone, though. This is partly due to the softness of the midsole, but in addition, cushioned shoes are built on a semi-curved or curved last and most do not contain motion-control devices, allowing your foot to roll inward. Clearly, these are not the shoes for overpronators.

Apparel and Accessories Best Products Online

The world of apparel, stunning fashions and elaborate clothing to help keep us looking at our very best, where appearance runs very high on the professional circuit as well as the casual and other social settings too. Appearance is power and can mean the difference in helping to make a good impression or a bad one, no matter the setting, and the apparel and accessories design industry is where it all begins. Entire lines of clothing and all of the lovely accessories that go with them can perfectly complement other creations. Americans spent more money shopping online in 2006 on clothing than they did on computers-(over 18-billion dollars) and even more in 2007 (over 22 billion dollars). A huge milestone for the apparel and accessories, clothing Industry. Research studies would show that More than 10 percent of this business, amazingly, was transacted online. New technologies with online sites such as rich imaging that allow customers to zoom and rotate items and viewing them in different colors before buying and other state of the art features coupled with new companies and liberal shipping policies, including free shipping on returns and exchanges helped aid in increased online sales in the apparel and clothing industry.

Some analysts thinks apparel wholesalers will increasingly use alternative distribution channels such as, their own retail stores, specialty shops, mass merchandisers, and the Internet (online shopping outlets) to offset what they believes will be stagnant growth in square footage at traditional department stores. Apparel companies are expected to continue to improve sourcing and efficiencies, broaden product offerings, and target unfilled niches through a mix of acquisitions, licensing, and brand extensions. Apparel companies are also likely to continue to reposition mature lines to lower price points and/or create new mid-priced lines specifically for discounters and mass merchandisers. It is believed that the apparel group will outperform the overall market in the months ahead.
