Each to his own: you don’t go to Sir Alan Sugar for advice on diplomacy or plead with me to teach you breakdancing. And you wouldn’t, on the whole, go to Bernie Ecclestone for philosophical insight and mature historical reflection. Deafened by the vroom-vrooming of his horrid sport, wreathed in petrol fumes for 60 years and blinded by his billions, that strange, wizened little figure has generally stuck to what he knows: motors and money. Sure, he dazzled Tony Blair with his millions, but who didn’t?

During the time years ago when I was constantly stressed-out over juggling a long-hours management job with raising two babies, I mostly kept my mouth shut because I had no idea how to ask for the flexibility I needed. If I could have read “Womenomics” back then, a new book just out from two TV journalists, I probably could have found my voice sooner. The message of “Womenomics,” by ABC News correspondent Claire Shipman and BBC World News America newswoman Katty Kay , is that skilled female workers have earned far more leverage at work than they’re using, by virtue of their educational credentials, experience and proven value in management.

We’ve got a special treat today, readers. Not one, not two, but THREE emails about people who have survived into their mid-twenties with their virginity intact. I know what you’re thinking: Whoa! There are die-hard football fans who consult a toilet-humor blog for sex advice that AREN’T popular with the ladies? Welp, it’s true, and it’s all after the jump — along with quests for threesomes, foursomes, and getting gays to play for the other team. As usual, very few people display the ability

Associated Press Elementary-school students washing their hands. I was out sick last week with a bad viral infection which led to high fevers, chills, headaches and the like. Of course, it’s no fun feeling miserable for a week, but it was also scary to think that I could be contagious, especially with a vulnerable toddler in the house.

Amid signs that the economy may bottom out soon , is it time to ask for a raise? Before you dismiss that as a ridiculous thought, consider the fact that a majority of employers have finished all the layoffs and pay cuts they intend to do, based on an April survey of 141 companies by Watson Wyatt . The smart ones know they have to hang onto the talent they have, and that could be hard when the economy improves

Merry Christmas everyone! We hope you had a wonderful evening and a beautiful day! Were in good company with family and friends, wrapped up warm – or dressed downright cool! – with good food, wherever you are! This spread instantly made me want to layer up with colours and scarves – I actually decided that I had too much black in my closet! Is that even possible? Love the fresh faces and the braided hair.

Over the last few weeks I have been looking at how to buy the right Christmas gifts for people we don’t know too well, such as distant relatives. This week I’d like to look at another difficult choice; the gift for a new lover. Although this may seem quite difficult at first, buying for a new love in our life is at least exciting, which gives it the edge over buying for a colleague you hardly know in a secret Santa! Buying for someone you have just started seeing (or would like to start seeing) romantically is a thrilling prospect but the danger here is appearing to be too over the top.

Okay, first off, I would like to say that this is not going to be one of those “how to buy an engagement ring” posts. This post will be the “real deal.” I work at a jewelry wholesale company that specializes in diamonds. We mostly sell to retailers but we do occasionally sell to close friends and family members when they are getting married and help them with their needs. With that being said, I will take you through the path that I would personally take when buying an engagement ring. There are a million sites out in the web to show you how to buy an engagement ring and rules to follow but those are all general guidelines with an overwhelming amount of options. The more options there are, the more room for error, and the more room for error, the more room for being swindled. If you follow my rules I can guarantee that you make a solid purchase without fearing that you may have been scammed

So, since starting this blog I am glad to announce that according to my stats I have had 3 people visit. These are people who probably misclicked on a link OR they were brought here by FATE. God wanted them to see this so they can think to themselves, what the hell? In any case, my jewelry ramblings shall continue. I have been posting jewelry on ebay for my company and it is disastrous. All jewelry posted on ebay seems cheap and it almost seems as though everything is being sold far less than cheap market pricing. This allowed me to come to a couple of conclusions. sellers are LIARS subtle words make all the difference Jewelry sellers often boost the quality of their diamonds lying straight to the consumer’s faces about having grades of diamonds that are way beyond their actual ratings. There are only a few certified Gemological Labs that are non-biased and grade diamonds according to a national standard. Amongst these companies GIA (Gemological Institutes of America) is probably the most legitimate. Their grading scale is very strict and they view all aspects of a diamond including the angles of the cut, depth, symmetry, and other standard four C’s measurements. I would recommend when buying a diamond to always ask for certification from GIA. Any jewelry company can and will make their own certifications which, of course, favor their own inventory
