More and more people are now getting married in Costa Rica, but why? To find this out just take a look at a picture postcard. Marriage is a lifetime commitment (hopefully) and a wedding is supposed to be the one day in a person’s life when they truly do become the center of attention. So what better way to celebrate an honest union of love, than to have a surrounding of paradise to go with it?

Unfortunately getting married in Costa Rica is not as straight forward as you would think, there is a lot more paperwork involved, than if you were to get married in your home country. Not only is there a list of paperwork, but you will also need to call on the services of a lawyer to ensure that when you do get married, the marriage is recognized by law when you go home.

Don’t let the legal side of it put you off; a setting like this can only make for the most memorable day of your life. With so many people now choosing Costa Rica as a wedding destination you can find everything you need to ensure a hassle free wedding.

One thing for the men to remember, your future wife wants to feel like a princess on her wedding day. There are some beautiful places in the world, and some of these places would be great places to get married. But there is only one Costa Rica, palm trees, white sands and sunshine are just the tip of the iceberg. If you want the best for your future wife, and something you can look back on in years to come, give her that dream day, and give her a Costa Rica Wedding.

If you want a dream wedding, don’t take second best. Marriage is not something which should be taken lightly, and neither is your wedding destination. God willing, this will be the first and last time you get married, so make it as special as you possibly can.

If getting married in Costa Rica is a dream which you would like to make a reality then there is some vital information you must be aware of and I highly encourage you to go here:

Ok, so it would seem that every other site calling itself a ‘review’ of Strip That Fat is actually a stupid sales page and there aren’t any real reviews out there, so I’m going to do a proper one because I’VE ACTUALLY USED IT! Alright, first of all:

1) It DOES work, it’s a very effective and time-efficient weight loss program.

2) It will NOT turn you into Arnold Schwarzenegger overnight!

This is what I personally achieved after about 3 months on the program:

If you’ve ever done a low-carb or low-fat diet you know that although they may work for a short period of time, after a few weeks your body adapts to the change in diet and the weight loss comes to a screeching halt, doesn’t it? Not only that, but they’re very unpleasant to be on and therefore impossible to stay on over the long term, and as soon as you go off them the weight just comes right back. Ok, first of all your body thinks you’re starving because you’re probably not eating enough fat (this is very true, and other works have corroborated this idea: check out Dr. Will Clower’s book ‘The Fat Fallacy’; it’s on Amazon), and this is one of the staples of the French diet which is credited for why they can stay so thin considering what they eat–they’re not consuming a lot of calories, but what they do consume is high-quality AND, very important, there’s enough fat in their diet so that their metabolism doesn’t think they’re starving and continues to burn fat because they’re still consuming fewer calories than they’re taking in. This is one of the premises of ‘Strip That Fat’, and it is, in fact, correct.

What I really liked about the program was the ‘STF Diet Generator’ that came with it which will automatically create all your meals for you based on the prescribed diet program, so no more measuring or trying to come up with a meal plan.

Also, I liked the fact that the program is set up to produce long-term results and is specifically designed as such–they start out with a 7 day program to get some immediate results (4-6 pounds gone in 7 days), and it goes all the way out to a 1-year plan where you will have lost over 50 pounds (if you need to lose that much).

And lastly the whole program is centered around actually KEEPING the weight off (which you do–it’s been 6 months and I’m still doing great), which is where so man other diets fail, especially crash diets. So, you get immediate results, steady long-term weight loss, and you keep it off–this sounds great to me, but you be the judge and check it out for yourself:

I found this AWESOME video (’awesome’ = good advice + funny as hell) on videojug and just had to share it. I have to say that I’ve had several girls do the rotating tongue thing they show (where you stick the whole thing in someones mouth and just slosh it all about) and it really is a big turn-off: guys, girls, DON’T do this, ok? If you’re really looking for some serious advice on kissing (I mean not just a couple tips, but you want to be like makeout-goddess deluxe, or a makeout-god for guys) then I highly recommend you check out this site: Kissing 101, Your Essential Guide. Anyway, here’s the video:

I’ve got some really great videos here that are going to show you the best positions to spice up your sex life with, and be sure to see the end for what I think is the best thing you can possibly learn, the first one I’ve included because I just absolutely LOVED it because: 1) It involves two hot girls in sexy lingerie, and 2) I’ve tried most of the positions demonstrated and can attest that they are some of the BEST, so here you go:

This second video is pretty friggin’ awesome as well, and again involves two hot girls in their underwear, however I’ve placed it second because it goes through a LOT of positions rather quickly, although that is a bit of an upside because it covers just about everything imaginable, here it is:

Do You Truly Want to Satisfy Your Partner? Do You Want to Help THEM Satisfy YOU??

By far the best resource I have come across is the G-Spot Sex Manual, which tells you precisely how to find and stimulate the female G-Spot for multiple intense orgasms, including which sex positions are best for stimulating the G-Spot during intercourse–if you and your partner are really stuck in a rut and want to get the wonderful feelings that can only come through passionate and orgasmic love-making back into your relationship, then I highly recommend this resource, also…(yes, she looks very happy, keep reading below )

Do you want to make her do THIS?

I bought it myself several months ago and my girl couldn’t be HAPPIER, and by happy, I mean cross-eyed and sweaty happy! Check it out here: G-Spot Sex Manual

Basic Cold Sore First Aid

Keep the cold sore clean and dry–wash it with a wash cloth and hot soapy water.

Replace your toothbrush-it can harbor the virus for days, reinfecting you after your current cold sore heals.

From an interesting article I recently read:

“Researchers at the University of Oklahoma exposed a sterile toothbrush to the virus for 10 minutes. Seven days later, half of the disease-producing viruses remained, says Richard T. Glass, D.D.S., Ph.D., chairman of the Department of Oral Pathology at the University of Oklahoma College of Medicine and College of Dentistry…”

How do you neutralize the infectious toothbrush? Throw it away. Dr. Glass recommends that you throw your toothbrush away when you notice you’re just beginning to get the virus. If you still develop the cold sore, throw your toothbrush away after the blister develops; this can prevent you from getting multiple cold sores. And once the sore has healed completely, replace your toothbrush again. Dr. Glass said that patients of his who tried this found that it cut WAY down on the number of cold sores they usually experienced each year.

Treat It With Zinc

Several studies have shown that a water-based zinc solution, applied the minute you feel that tingling, helps speed up recovery time.

In a Boston study of 200 patients who were followed over a six-year period, a 0.025 percent solution of zinc sulfate in camphorated water was found very effective. Sores healed in an average of 5.3 days. The solution was applied every 30 to 60 minutes during the onset of the cold sore.

Over The Counter (OTC) Treatments

Also, topical treatments, such as topical lidocaine or benzyl alcohol (Zilactin), may help alleviate your symptoms.

Milk…Yes, Milk

Don’t drink it–soak a cotton ball in milk and apply it to the cold sore to relieve pain. Better yet, if you feel the telltale tingling before the cold sore appears, go straight to the cold milk–it can help speed healing right from the get-go.

So today we’re going to learn about some cold sore basics as well as a cold sore remedy or two (or three), including prescription, over the counter medication, and some home remedies that really work.

Basic Knowledge About Cold Sores

Cold sores are small, painful, liquid-filled sores that appear on the lips, mouth, or nose–they are caused by a virus called Herpes Simplex Type 1. The sores can be painful but usually only last a few days. Once you’ve had your first outbreak of herpes, the virus lies dormant in the nerve cells in your skin and may come out again as an active outbreak at or near the original site. You may experience an itch or heightened sensitivity at the site prior to each outbreak. Fever, menstruation, stress and exposure to the sun may all cause a recurrence, or new outbreak. Unlike with most viral infections, the Herpes virus is never completely eliminated by the body’s immune system. For this reason, cold sores often recur over and over again through the years.

Simple Treatment of a Cold Sore

-Clean with a wash cloth and hot soapy water.

-Use a petroleum-based product such as petroleum jelly or neosporin to seal in the virus to prevent spreading to other areas of your skin, minimize irritation, and keep out further infection.

-You can also use topical treatments such as lidocaine or benzyl alcohol (Zilactin) to help reduce or eliminate your symptoms.

*Do Not Touch or Scratch!*

-The less you touch, the faster it will disappear–believe me, I get cold sores, I know how much you want to itch, but DON’T–scratching can spread it all over the rest of your face!

Home Treatments and Remedies for Cold Sores:

A home remedy for cold sore or cold sore home treatments: these are too numerous to mention, and many of them simply do not work.

Basic Treatment of a Cold Sore

First of all, don’t touch, don’t scratch, in other words: don’t spread it all over your face! That’s what’s going to happen if you start touch it. Also, a good idea would be to clean it with hot soapy water and a wash cloth (wash the wash cloth AND your hands as soon as you’re done). Something else you can do is apply some petroleum jelly or Neosporin to help seal in the virus and keep it from spreading.

Cold Sore Cures at Home

-Use a water based zinc solution that you apply as soon as you feel that familiar tingling, it can significantly shorten the length of the outbreak. The usual solution is what’s known as a solution of zinc sulfate in camphorated water (0.025% zinc solution).

-OTC antiviral cold sore medications such as benzyl alcohol (Zilactin) or topical lidocaine can be very effective in curing your cold sores.

-Licorice! (yes, really): Licorice. Studies have shown that glycyrrhizic acid, an ingredient in licorice, stops the cold sore virus (Herpes Simplex 1) dead. So you can try chewing a licorice whip, just be sure it’s made from real licorice, as most “licorice” candy in the United States today is flavored with anise. If the ingredient list says “licorice mass,” then the product contains real licorice. You could also try buying some licorice powder and sprinkling it on the sore, or mix up a cream with a pinch of licorice power and a little bit of vegetable shortening, then apply to the cold sore.

No One Needs the Needy!

Begging, clinging, and other types of desperate behavior are much more likely to repel your lost love rather than pull them closer to you. Not only is it vital to show everyone that you can triumph in the toughest of times, but you must also prove it to yourself. No one ever said breakups were easy, keep the screaming, sobbing and crying behind closed doors (just you and that pint of Haagen-Daas will ever know about it).

Temporarily Cut Off Contact

Cutting off all contact may seem counter productive to fixing a failed relationship, but it is THE vital step that is also the toughest. There is a very good reason that things have ended up at this point, and it’s obvious that at least one of you needs a break. To allow some time for reflection and thought is the best way to evaluate the relationship. This also gives your ex some time to clear their head. It could be that some time away will remind them of how much they really cherished your relationship.

Be the person they fell in love with. They were attracted to you because they felt good with you, and you were fulfilling their emotional needs. How have you changed and WHY? Correct any bad habits and errors you may have. Be positive around them, laugh and smile.

Get Out and Socialize!

This is no time to be by yourself–call your friends and get out and have some fun. You should develop other forms of entertainment in your life. This does not mean you have to date, or even look at the opposite sex. It simply means you need to occupy yourself and remember who you are. Getting out will also be helpful for when you get back with your ex–your conversations have some new life in them thanks to some of the new stories you have to tell.

Just Be Yourself

There was a reason that you and your ex-lover were initially attracted to each other, and part of this was because you are a entirely unique person. Think of what made these first few days you spent together so special, and try to figure out what has changed. Learn to accentuate your qualities and strive to be the real person you are–sometimes relationships can become monotonous and you can forget what it was that made both of you so attractive to each other. This renewed perception of yourself will rub off on everyone around you, including your ex.

It is not easy to win back the love of your life, but it can be done. Determination and patience (and love) are the most essential qualities needed to be successful. The basic tips above will get you started on your quest, but it is important to continue be adaptable to whatever your situation is. If you truly love your ex, then you need to do everything in your power to prove yourself. For more resources, please visit The Magic of Making Up.

some of the best sites out there to watch TV episodes online with, and the pros and cons of using them as well as an all-in-one solution at the end that is the, by far, the simplest and fastest way to go about doing this (you install the software and press play), how you want to do this is up to you.

Ok, the way that free online television works is that there’s 1000’s of channels of what’s called ‘free to air’ satellite TV broadcasts where major and minor stations (and when I say major, that does include ones you’ve heard of like NBC, FOX NEWS, CNN, ESPN, TNT, etc.) make their broadcasts available via their websites in the form of streaming video that you can watch, BUT you have to go each individual website, then navigate and/or search for your show to see the streaming video of it each time you want to watch.

Another solution is one of the websites, such as YouTube.com or Google Video where clips from TV shows are often uploaded, and occasionally the full length show is put on there although this is rare and is often taken down by YouTube or Google due to copyright violations–one of the problems with YouTube is that videos longer than 10 minutes are generally not allowed.

Additionally there are sites like BeelineTV.com and WorldTVPC.com (which I recommend you at least check out to see what they’re about) where they have a list of links to all the websites of TV channels that have free streaming video on their sites, but you still have to find your country and then go to each individual website, then navigate and search to find the show you want–it’s a bit time consuming and irritating, is my point (but it’s do-able, and it’s free, so it’s up to you).

All-in-One Software

This is actually the program that I have been using to watch TV online from work: it’s a software package that you download, and it gives you access to the full versions of all your favorite TV series and shows (over 3000 channels available) plus full length movies (as well as music and games as a bonus), and then brings them all together in one simple, easy to use interface where you can look through them, search, and watch them as you please–it’s very easy to use and just saves so much time and trouble, I do recommend it.
