| Places to visit when friends come to stay | | 2008-08-03 11:29:52 | | My dear friend Rebecca is visiting from Australia for two weeks so we are planning out sightseeing itinerary. Today we visited Din Tai Fung in the Paragon and ate delicious Shanghainese pork dumplings. These delicate dumplings are my favourite food in the world and Din Tai Fung do some of the best I have tried in Singapore. For a great review of the restaurant chain click on this link:http://superfinefeline.blogspot.com/2008/05/la-mian-xiao-long-bao-din-tai-fung.htmlWe waddled out after overstuffing ourselves (unlike the dumplings which were definitely not overstuffed) and took a taxi to McRitchie Reservoir for a much needed walk. This was lovely. We spotted a family of macaque monkeys playing in the trees, a couple of monitor lizards and lots of turtles. It was great to show Rebecca this side of Singapore after the hectic pace of Orchard Road.Here are some other things on our list to do over the next two weeks.

| Do Americans Look Healthy? Are We Putting Trust In All The Wrong Places About Food And Health? | | 2008-07-07 09:23:00 | | I've found over the past few months and probably years that I'm usually too busy to pay attention to more than a few things, and for the rest, I just trust. I don't have the time so it comes down to trusting what I read and hear.Except when it comes to food. I know in the past I trusted too much and it was not an area where trust was helpful.

Once-real food is now irradiated and subjected to extreme heat which kills all the vitamins and enzymes. The chemicals so distort the food molecules that they're not usable by our bodies.

| Beautiful Places in America That You Should Visit | | 2008-06-12 20:01:00 | | 1. Red Rock Country (Sedona, Ariz.)Ever since the early days of movies, when Hollywood has wanted to show the unique beauty of the West, it has gone to Sedona, a place that looks like nowhere else. Beginning with The Call of the Canyon in 1923, some hundred movies and TV shows have been filmed in and around town. We fell under Sedona's spell, too, and while debating our No. 1 spot kept returning to it for the same reasons Hollywood does: The area's telegenic canyons, wind-shaped buttes and dramatic sandstone towers embody the rugged character of the West -- and the central place that character holds in our national identity. There's a timelessness about these ancient rocks that fires the imagination of all who encounter them. Some 11,000 years before film cameras discovered Sedona, American Indians settled the area. Homesteaders, artists and, most recently, New Age spiritualists have followed. Many cultures and agendas abound, but there's really only one attraction: the sheer, exuberan... | | By: Nice Reading | | |

| 31 Places to Go This Summer | | 2008-06-11 22:00:00 | | THERE used to be a time — oh, let’s call it 2007 — when summer was considered a time of almost limitless possibilities, a time of languorous vacations, of trips filled with the promise of discovery.But the summer of 2008 is starting out like a cruel joke, with air travel increasingly a nightmare and with wildly escalating gas prices threatening to make the road trip all but obsolete. It’s almost enough to make you sit at home and catch up on episodes of “Gossip Girl.”The summer vacation is still an inalienable right, however. And there is no reason to forgo it this year. It will just take a bit of creativity — and perhaps the willingness to stay a little closer to home this time around — to pull it off in 2008.Thus, here are 31 options — from river rafting in eastern Oregon to biking in the White Mountains of New Hampshire — for a great summer vacation.

| The 10 Brainiest Places to Retire | | 2008-06-08 05:44:00 | | by Liz WolgemuthJust because you hit your 60s, it doesn't mean your brain starts to power down. Just the opposite. Your noodle needs more stimulation than ever, and, finally, you have the time to supply the required intellectual input. And picking a place to retire can be key to that process. For retirees who have no desire to stop learning—and that's, like, pretty much everyone—there are plenty of American communities that boast thriving intellectual centers where cultural activities keep residents (and their brains) as busy and interested as they want to be.What makes the difference? A city with a large local university might offer a colorful slate of arts or educational events nearly every evening. Some suburbs have found a way to create unique learning opportunities for residents, who still have an easy route into the neighboring metropolis.U.S. News consulted our list of more than 1,000 Best Places to Retire and came up with 10 retirement destinations that attract highly educa... | | By: Nerdy Eddy | | |

Here are a few tips on selecting the right camp for your children:• Check out www.campparents.org for a listing of hundreds of possible camps.• For your peace of mind, find an ACA accredited camp. This certification means the camp has been reviewed for over 300 standards to make sure the camp is safe and provides the highest quality camping experience for your child.• Younger children may not understand what it means to "go to camp". See if you can visit a camp in progress so they understand what it means to be away from you while swimming, playing goofy games and idolizing their wacky counselor.• For a child's first camp experience, consider a "traditional" camp that offers a variety of activities rather than focusing on computers or performing arts. This experience gives your child a broader camping experience.

| Friends in Not-So-Low Places | | 2008-01-26 00:17:00 | | Here's a major life revelation: friends are worth it! I've been swapping babysitting with my neighbor for a few months now. She takes my two kids one day a week, I take her two another with random, "could ya help for a few minutes" scattered in between. I have to admit, changing other kids' poopy diapers isn't really my thing, but as I discovered today, there are fringe benefits.I was laying on the couch tonight eating cookie dough and watching some Mario Lopez movie on the Oxygen channel.

| Car Finance Places You On The Top Gear While Buying a Car. | | 2008-01-03 03:34:00 | | Fast car on open roads. It is a perfect picture for any car enthusiast. But you have to go to your work and also drop your kids to school. This is the real picture for most of us. We need to save time when we don’t have any. A typical individual has so many odd jobs to complete that a car can, without doubt, facilitate their accomplishment. Financing your car doesn’t fit your idea of the way of buying your car; then probably you are still stuck with traditional car buying methods.

So, how do you finance a car? If this question leaves you baffled, then you have to go a long way in the process of buying a car. The term ‘financing’ in relation to buying a car connotes either rendering loan to buy the car or lease the car to you. You are probably concentrating on the former meaning. Many people are in favour of talking car finance from dealership for it seems like a convenient option. It seems easy; you select a car, fill out a credit application, and drive away with your car - all in a day’s work. Car finance through dealership will give you car finance on weekends and even at nights when other banks and credit unions are closed. Seems convenient, isn’t it? But there is a catch. The dealer will be certainly charging you more for your car finance. Usually car buyers are overcharged by 3% on their car finance. A great number of complaints about car financing are related to dealers. 0% APR is not only attractive but lures the buyers to acquire up car finance not meditating if it is feasible for them.

| The Best Places to Launch a Career | | 2007-09-15 05:07:00 | | by Lindsey Gerdesprovided byAccountants used to be spoofed as bean counters—dutiful, middle-aged, gray-suited men with considerable analytical expertise but little charisma. That was during the good times. After their uninspiring performances in the corporate scandals of recent years, accounting seemed like a profession without much of a future, and the firms certainly no place to launch a career. Scratch that. This year accountants became sexy. Accounting firms dominated BusinessWeek's second annual ranking of the best companies for new college graduates: Deloitte & Touche is No. 1, followed by PricewaterhouseCoopers and Ernst & Young. The last of the Big Four, KPMG, moved up four spots, to No. 11.Why did the accounting firms do so well? Enormous demand. Across industries, there is a mad scramble to recruit the best and brightest of a new generation, the much-maligned, heavily scrutinized Gen Y. Nowhere is the pressure more intense than in the Big Four. The Sarbanes-Ox... | | By: How to be Rich, Happy and Free from Scams | | |

| Top Places to See in Tuscany | | 2007-09-13 08:54:00 | | The Tuscany or Toscana region of west northwest Italy or “Chianti shire” as it is sometimes described is one of those in areas where it is extremely hard to put together a top 10 of any form of tourism highlights.Where on earth would you start? Possibly, Florence I suppose.Situated in the heart of Tuscany, Florence has so many architectural delights and treasures that it would be very easy to spend not just one holiday but a lifetime appreciating the delights of Florence. The Uffizi for one has to be or almost at the top of the list. The former offices of the ruling Medici family (now there’s a name to take seriously) the Uffizi houses a veritable cornucopia (treasure trove to the uninitiated) of Renaissance masters that it is difficult to take all of them in.Next on your whistle stop tour of Florence I guess would be the Duomo. It is very easy and understandable to be dumbstruck when you first view the Duomo. Why? Well for starters there is the central dome designed by Brunelleschi added to which the slender Bell tower designed by Giotto plus Ghiberti’s gates, Michelangelo’s Pieta all topped off in red white and green marble. All run of the mill stuff basically.Then it is a quick sprint to the Pitti Palace to get a real idea of how the Medici family lived. The Pitti Palace house a collection of paintings that would rival those housed in the Uffizi. Boy were the Medici family into artwork. I know this is a massive understatement and probably sounds like heresy but boy could this family collect paintings. The Pitti Palace has an amazing collection of porcelain, carriages, modern art and formal gardens.Moving away from Florence and as we head towards Siena is the fairytale town off San Gimighano. Here you would be hard-pressed not to believe that you have actually walked on to a historic film sent with a fairytale town, stone towers, churches covered in frescoes and all surrounded by a breathtaking network of patchwork fields and terraced vineyards.Next on t... | | By: Travelling Italy | | |

| Sleep in the Right Places | | 2007-06-14 10:14:26 | | When traveling here and there, it will come to a point where people will want to take a short nap or doze of unexpectedly. Especially for people who travel using airplanes, they are given the right opportunity to rest freely, but entirely at their own risk.
People may cease the opportunity to do some foolish things while people are asleep. Just take this video as an example. Perhaps next time, you would think twice before sleeping lackadaisically.

| Places to Coach Will be Aplenty for Cowher | | 2007-06-08 20:55:10 | |
It’s no secret that a number of teams around the National Football League are going to covet former Steelers head coach Bill Cowher in 2008. Cowher, currently enjoying time off with his family, is still a young man, and reports say that there is no doubt that Cowher will return to the National Football League at some point, sooner than later, and coach anywhere from 8-15 years. He won a Super Bowl with the Steelers in 2005, and simply needed a break. It was as simple as that.With that said, the Washington Times on Friday began what is sure to be a hot topic for the 2007 season.
Where will Bill Cowher coach in 2008? One team that will have their eyes on him according to the paper is the Washington Redskins, who may finally part ways with Hall of Fame coach Joe Gibbs if they have another down year, and give control of the team to Cowher. Gibbs will be 67 years old, and with one year left on his contract, may feel its time to finally walk away for good, and he could easily give con... | | By: NFL GridIron Gab | | |

| Hong Kong, Bali and Noosa Heads the Best Places in the Asia-Pacific | | 2007-05-14 06:04:00 | | What makes the best place in the Asia-Pacific? An ongoing survey sponsored by Asian business Web site, the Asia Pacific Management Forum, is attempting to define the meaning of the “Best Place” while providing a leader board of top nominations.
There are some surprises. Hong Kong is well supported, as is Bali, but other lesser known places such as Daylesford, Cairns and Noosa Heads in Australia, Luang Prabang in Laos and Hangzhou, China also have their fans.
Some categories have run-away leaders. The Oriental in Bangkok for example leads by a long way in the Best Hotel category and the Best Bar title is currently held by a similar good lead by the Hard Rock Cafe in Kuala Lumpur Malaysia. Other categories feature neck and neck struggles for the lead with the two new glamour airports of the region, Chek Lap Kok in Hong Kong, and Kuala Lumpur International changing leader positions several times.
