There are so many sites on the internet that give information about what type or style of bathing suit you should wear for a particular skin type but what part does the color of the bathing suit play in the look? The color of your bathing suit could be blemishing the look of your overall appearance on the beach. Choosing a bathing suit color that compliments your body shape is vital to achieving an overall appearance that is flawless and worthy of sunbathing at the beach or by the community pool. Here are some tips for choosing a bathing suit color that will compliment your body shape! As you are done with all these tips you can get a perfect bathing suit for yourself on one piece swimwear online with their best service and products.

Black: A black bathing suit is great for areas of the body that are large and you wish to draw attention away from. If you have a large chest then it may be a good idea to wear a black or dark-colored top with a bold light-toned bottom. For a large bottom, a darker bottom should be paired with a lighter top.

The pattern of the bathing suit material also plays a key role in how your body shape is or is not flattered by your suit. Diagonal lines will draw attention away while horizontal lines tend to make the bust or the waist area look larger or at least the same size. Vertical lines will create a lengthening appearance while cut-outs will create a slimming and shortening appeal to lengthy parts such as a long torso.

Pink: There are so many shades of pink that you can get a pink bathing suit that will complement nearly any body shape. A bold and dark pink is perfect for creating a slimming effect or to draw attention away while a lighter tone of pink can be worn to draw attention to a specific body part or area. Pink is a great color for both dark and light skin tones as it creates a warming tone that is perfect for sunbathing bodies!

White: A white bathing suit is perfect for dark skin tones. White will definitely draw attention to a specific body part or are so if you don’t want a part to be noticed then don’t cover it in white! A white top will create a larger looking bust area, especially when paired with a black or dark lower bathing suit piece.

Nude: A nude color bathing suit is for perfect beach bathing bodies only. This bathing suit color is very difficult to pull off for even the most perfect body shapes! Nude works well when you want a body part seen by all!

Blue: Blue bathing suits are most suited for darker skin tones. Bold bright blues can be worn to attract attention to a specific body part while a light baby blue will draw attention to a rounded overall look. Blue patches are perfect for creating a slimming look for unsightly body shapes or areas.

Red: Want to get a specific area of the body such as your bust noticed? A bold red bathing suit top will definitely do this! Take care to pay attention to your skin tone when deciding on a red bathing suit as certain cooler skin tones may clash with a bold and bright red suit. A maroon suit is perfect for lighter skin tones and it really will flatter a mid-drift that may be slightly bulgy!

If your child’s birthday falls between August and May, chances are you’ve had to host your share of classroom birthday parties. Elementary school students love treating their classmates to cakes, treats and games each year. But the classroom birthday party can be tricky to pull off. Here are ideas to host themed classroom birthday parties your child’s friends will love and make the event smooth and seamless for his classroom teacher as well.

First, contact your child’s teacher at least two weeks before you plan to bring birthday treats to her classroom. If your child’s birthday falls in the middle of the week, her teacher may request you wait until a Friday afternoon to host the party. Tell the teacher what items you plan to bring, any goodies or favors you want to give away and ask her if there will be time for a few party games. Especially in younger elementary-aged children, teachers have to be cautious of foods with nuts, flour, dairy or other common allergens. The teacher probably has a list of allergies for each student in her class, but be sure to ask just in case.

If your child’s class has an afternoon recess, it is best to plan the party just before or during that time. Kids will be more energetic after sugary foods and recess offers a chance to burn off the energy before transitioning back to classroom mode. Whatever your child’s teacher recommends, or requires, be respectful and honor it. Remember, your child might not be hard to handle. But the teacher knows her students and the triggers that set them off. She is ultimately responsible for her classroom management, and combining 30 young children with sugar and a change in schedule is usually a recipe for headaches and meltdowns.

Next, enlist a few volunteers to help you conduct the party so the teacher can focus on classroom management. Ask other family members, older siblings or cousins, or family friends to help you carry in your supplies, set up and serve refreshments, and clean up. Make a supply list so you don’t forget any essentials, especially large garbage bags, plenty of plastic silverware and napkins, and larger serving spoons. These are the most common items left out of party planning, and usually make for larger messes. School janitors hate dumping tiny classroom trashcans crammed with leaking drinks and cake plates. And trying to cute and serve ice cream cake with only a plastic fork inevitably leads to major messes and frustration. Bring your own and offer to carry all the large trash bags to the school’s dumpster before you leave.

The supply list should also include a package of moist wipes to clean up each child’s face after messy party snacks. Add some disinfectant wipes to wipe down any tables and desks on which food will be served and eaten. Most classrooms now have hand sanitizer or sinks in the room, but bring an extra bottle so children can wash their hands just in case. Finally, be sure to bring plastic cling wrap, aluminum foil and some disposable storage bowls to deal with leftover cake or treats.

Try to include your child’s administrative staff or alternate teachers, such as music, art and physical education instructors, in your party planning. Something as simple as sending a small tray of cake slices to the front office will brighten the principal’s day. Office staff, like secretaries and front-desk staff, lunchroom workers and janitors are often overlooked on special occasions. Bring colored plastic cling wrap and small party plates to prepare single-slices to send to these workers around the school. Older elementary children might want to deliver these treats themselves, if the teacher allows small groups to go around the school alone, and tell these workers how much they appreciate them.

Try to plan birthday treats and snacks that are classroom friendly. Opt for cupcakes to omit all the hassle of slicing and serving. Cupcakes also have the same amount of icing, decorations, and usually come with a single favor (like plastic rings or small toys). This eliminates melt-downs because one child thinks another got a bigger slice, more icing or more decorations on his piece. Cupcakes are easy to eat without silverware, cutting down on waste as well.

Instead of buying and scooping gallons of ice cream, give each child a small single-serving cup – the kind with wooden spoons attached to the lid. These may seem more expensive, but can be more cost effective. You can buy multi-flavored packs so each child can choose a vanilla, strawberry or chocolate.

Its not just the above flavors, but various others can also be included like black currant, orange, mango, treacle tart and a combination of one or more of them because ice creams are of different varieties and the flavors are too many to be taken into consideration. Kids are never fond of caricature so in a bid to make a unique combination, make sure that the basic ingredient is not ruined.

Prepare goodie bags or favors well in advance. Ask the teacher for a class list of names. Label each bag with a child’s first name to make handing out party favors as easy as possible. Skip large amounts of candy-kids will already be an a sugar overload from the refreshments, and many parents like to watch their kids’ candy intake. Instead, look for fun toys, games and school supplies in the party theme. Pencils, mini-notebooks, erasers and pencil sharpeners come in millions of colors, designs and shapes. Avoid making “boy” and “girl” favor bags with traditional pink and blue favors. Don’t assume girls won’t enjoy your son’s favorite frog pencils or boys won’t use your daughter’s Dora the Explorer notebooks.

To really demonstrate the spirit of giving to your child and her classroom, consider giving a birthday gift to the entire class. Consult the teacher beforehand and choose something the entire class can use for the remainder of the year, like a huge colorful parachute (many teachers use these on activity days and the entire class can play at one time), a bag of kick balls for recess, or new art supplies for the classroom.

Finally, before planning party games, ask the teacher what they are studying in science and art. Look for a craft activity that can tie in to your child’s birthday theme, but still have educational value in the classroom. Crafts that use photos of the child or her handprints, fingerprints or footprints, make great keepsakes that other parents will cherish. Offer to bring all the supplies and help the teacher conduct the activity. Bring an instant camera so children can take home photos of themselves to their parents.

What is the quickest way to earn money in the current times? The logical answer is through a well paid job or setting up your own business? Well, to be frank, they are more of old school if you compare it to today’s times.

Also, the youngsters who have just freshly graduated from college have little to no experience on how and where to begin, not to mention the cash crunch in their families. 

Children from business families don’t want to join family business and want to try it out on their own but cannot do so as they don’t have an idea of what to do and their family is not so generous as to waste millions on his capital.

Luckily, cryptocurrency market that came into being in the late 2000s proved to be a god gifted boon for such luck deprived individuals which they utilized to the fullest extent as soon as they got the opportunity.

Granddaddy of Crypto Money

Leading the pack in the crypto world is bitcoin, which is far ahead of others in the game like litecoin, ethereum, etc. as it proved to be an enormous success overnight and has the reputation of turning paupers into princes.

Thus, it can also be considered the granddaddy of cryptocurrencies as it is so relatable to everyone and doesn’t distinguish between rich and poor. It is the same for both classes and whether you are a success or a failure in it entirely depends on your skills in bitcoin trading and purchase.

It is easy for naysayers to say that Bitcoin was born out of despair and is virtually the last resort for people who are at a dead end in life and have nowhere else to go other than taking extreme steps.

Some other experts are of the opinion that bitcoin is nothing but a gambling technique and is basically a lure for the gullible minded fools who are looking out for opportunities on how to become rich overnight without the need to slog it out in monotonous 9 to 5 jobs in office.

While they may have strong arguments in this regard but it is a known fact that there is no such thing as free lunch in this world and you always have to pay for what you eat.

The granddaddy, bitcoin, does not differentiate between elite and underprivileged, as mentioned above, but what matters is that the people who are interested in purchasing bitcoins need to have a keen analytical mind as well as sound knowledge of market currencies in order to succeed in this trade.

Creating Awareness

After a booming start in the initial stages, bitcoin suddenly declined to abysmal depths in the early 2010s as people started to dismiss it as a flash in the pan and a get quick rich scheme.

Soon, it became so ridiculed and vilified across the world that people gradually abandoned their faith in it and started looking out for newer options. Indeed, it was the worst case scenario for the makers of Bitcoin as there was a nadir in business trade.

Therefore, before trying out for Bitcoin, beginners are advised to understand it in its entirety and need to create awareness that it is not as easy as it is made out to be and it may have similarities to an investment scheme, it is far different from it and depends on the market value of crypto currency.

Being decentralized in nature, it does not have a central bank to govern and regulate it and it is its own boss. For youngsters who have purchased bitcoin just for the sake of making money, there are numerous measures on how to do it in a safe way without incurring losses.

Some are as follows:

1. Bitcoin Mining: It is similar to gold mining in the sense that the miners have to bring out the gold, bitcoin in this case, and make it known to everyone. While paper money is regulated by banks, bitcoin has a unique software to solve problems and have bitcoin exchange
2. Take help from a website called Bitcoin Faucet as they generate their revenue from different ads
3. Pay to see websites will give you bitcoin if you watch their videos in their entirety

When I was in my mid-50s, I was single, happy, and ready to meet the love of my life. I didn’t know where to start. I didn’t go to clubs and I had been in the same job for years. Friends tried to set me up, but it was awkward, risky, and didn’t offer me much chance to select for myself.

I had seen ads about online dating. I went to a website and signed up. It took two years and many encounters to finally meet the woman who would become my wife. In that experience, I learned a lot about myself and about the process of online dating “in the gray.”

While I am not a big fan of a free dating app, still I thought I should try out modern technique for once in order to move on with times and I found a mine of information in this regard and dating suddenly felt like child’s play to be and the very thought that I am way too old to be indulging into something like this slipped from my mind.

Here are some tips:

Embrace the experience. If you choose to participate in online dating, see it as an adventure and something that will pay off. Your attitude is everything in the way you approach the process and the people you meet.

Be Selective. Go in knowing what you are–and are not–looking for in a potential partner. Say yes only to what feels true to you, and be able and willing to say no if you see red flags. It will save you much time, energy, and hurt feelings (yours and theirs).

Be Patient. I literally met scores of women. I had single and multiple dates, and I even fell in love a couple of times, only to have the relationships end within months. Keep your head up and your eyes on the prize.

Be Smart. Exchange emails and texts at first. Get a sense of who the other person is and what his or her situation is. Again, watch for red flags and do not overlook or excuse them. Next, talk on the telephone. When you are ready to meet someone, set up short dates at first. Meet for coffee rather than for a meal (you can always run to a restaurant when the coffee date soars). Always be yourself. And look for the same in the other person.

Be truthful, thoughtful and courteous. If you follow the first guideline, you are happy and excited to be dating. You are dealing with other human beings, who have lives, troubles, and feelings. Everything you say and do makes a difference to someone else. Tell the truth upfront. Don’t display a photo of yourself taken 20 years ago. Don’t make up stories about your experience. If trust is broken in the first few moments, anything resembling a relationship from then on is on shaky ground. You will have to reject another person and you will be rejected by another person. It is part of the process. Do it nicely and try not to take it personally. Move on to the next person who has captured your eye and imagination. Expect an interesting, enlightening, and sometimes frustrating experience.

Online dating can work. I found my best friend, playmate, and lover in the process. Yours is out there, waiting for you online.

One of the most fun things about being a crafting person is figuring out how to use ordinary things in unusual ways. That’s especially exciting if you were going to throw the object away, and now you’ve thought of a new use for it. Imagine how many boxes, cans, wrappers, and other things, would have been thrown away by now, if it hadn’t been for unusual crafts? Now you have all sorts of new things and you’ve your part to save the planet. You can save even more trash from the landfill when you save wrappers from things you’ve eaten. One such wrapper is a Ramen Noodles wrapper. It makes the cutest little change purse and, when it gets dirty or worn out, it’s disposable!

A Ramen Noodles or other envelope-type product, makes a great wallet or coin purse. For a Ramen Noodles creation, carefully slice along the top of the bag and dump out the contents. Use a damp cloth to wipe out the inside of the bag. If you want to strengthen the bag, cut a piece of cardboard for the front and back, and tape or glue them inside. Instead of cardboard you can use Fun Foam, or stiff plastic

There are tutorials online that show you how to install a zipper in a pouch or envelope like Ramen Noodles but why go through all of that trouble? And, if you don’t sew, you’re out of luck on this project. But there’s a way that anyone can turn a Ramen Noodles or other pouch into a coin purse or wallet. Just use Velcro. Cut a strip to be as long as one cut edge of the bag, then cut it into a much thinner strip. Peel-n-stick Velcro might not hold well for some craft projects, but it sticks exceptionally well on a Ramen Noodles or similar wrapper.

To attach the Velcro, barely fold the cut edge of the wrapper under, and then stick the Velcro over it. Do the same to the opposite side, with the opposing piece of Velcro, and the change purse is already finished. The extra-large change purse can also hold bills, photos, credit cards, and many other things. If it starts to show too much wear and tear, simply throw it away, and make another one in minutes.  A small minimalist wallet will be perfect for keeping in the pocket of the person. The carrying of the money from one to another place will be convenient for the person

Besides a Ramen Noodle package you can use a powdered cheese packet from a box of macaroni and cheese, a Kool-Aid envelope, a toll house morsel bag, a small potato chip bag, a pack from a sample size of dog or cat food, or even a single-size envelope of coffee, made for a coffee maker. The cute change purse – no matter which one you make – is so cheap that it’s easily disposable when it starts to get worn out.

Conservation is becoming a popular theme; energy, resources, even space. Bigger is no longer automatically better. Miniaturization has always been popular but its novelty is evolving into necessity. As network security improves, online application software matures, and flat-screen monitors become lighter and affordable, we are seeing a sudden makeover of the Internet appliance.

The CherryPal PC expected to be available 3rd quarter of 2008 offers an emerging alternative to local application-centric desktop/laptop computing. Imagine connecting your flat screen to a cloud service providing a traditional “desktop” and a wide range of industrial strength software applications. Experts will provide the best cloud storage recommendations to the customers about the services. It should provide adequate strength to the desktop of the person. The charges of the best services should be done the budget of the person.

Laptops are actually a very expensive way to only miniaturize the hardware footprint; the evolutionary step of “jacking into” cloud computer services has remained elusive. Until now, two disadvantages of cloud computing have been the cost of the front-end box, often priced like a low-end PC desktop, and the lack of power on the backend, that is, in the clouds.

Both appear to be solved by CherryPal a 10.5 oz (1.3″x5.8″x4.2″) ultra green “portable personal computing unit”. The low-cost device, with no moving parts to fail or local software to corrupt, connects to a non-subscription based cloud service provided by Amazon’s Web Services. Amazon runs brief advertisements upon the opening of software programs to offset operating costs.

CherryPal has a triple-core processor running CherryPax, a Debian/GNU Linux based OS, and uses 20% of the components on 2W of energy. Because of its dependency on cloud computing, its solid-state circuitry runs silently with 50GB online (CherryPalCloud) and 4GB internal storage. It runs a Freescale’s MPC5121e mobileGT processor that draws ultra-low levels of power at operating speeds of 400 MHz.

The MPC5121e processor has a triple core architecture that includes a Power Architecture core and CD-quality audio and 3-D graphics processors. Because of its “ethereal” footprint, it will have only 256MB of DDR2 DRAM, a 4 GB NAND Flash-based solid state hard drive, WiFi 802.11 b/g, VGA out and two USB 2.0 ports, a 10/100 Ethernet RJ-45 jack, and a 3.5 mm stereo audio jack for headphones.

Most of us have paid comparably higher prices for the portability we call a laptop PC; a “packaged” processor, keyboard, mouse and monitor. But our laptop has actually evolved into a very fat, Internet appliance! How many software applications do we REALLY need, much less use on our personal computer? Aside from critical issues of privacy and security, don’t most of us automatically connect to the Internet as soon as we power our PCs anyway?

Why spend such a high premium for hardware miniaturization that only replicates what we already have in a larger desktop version? Paradigms regarding geopolitics, economics, and now maybe even technology might be on the verge of yet another major shift in substance and direction.

1. Checked Luggage.

Whenever possible, pack light so that you don’t have to check your luggage. This will help avoid standing in long lines, worries about your luggage being lost (you’ve seen Meet the Parents!), and the inevitable delays while waiting at the Baggage Claim.

2. Travel Wallet.

A travel wallet will cost you about ten dollars, but the value is priceless. How many times have you rummaged around for your driver’s license, your passport, your boarding pass or money? A travel wallet will have a place for all of those things, as well as your credit cards and an extra slot for various currencies, helpful if you’re traveling internationally.

3. Comfortable shoes.

Not only will you need comfortable shoes for standing in lines and walking around the airport, but remember that security checks all shoes with hard soles or metal tips/heels, so choose something easy to slide on and off.

4. Avoid prohibited items.

No matter how many signs they post, people always seem to want to carry razors, pocket knives, scissors, lighters, matches, and hairspray. These items will not be allowed, so don’t slow down security.Place them in your checked baggage or just buy one at the local 7-11 when you arrive at your final destination.

5. Liquids.

The newest airport security tactic is being strictly enforced. All beverages must be tossed prior to going through security, and any liquids or gels (i.e. makeup, lotion, sunscreen, shampoo) must be smaller than 100 mL AND must be in a sealed plastic bag. Again, don’t slow down the lines. You won’t get through with them, so help us all out and just follow the rules.

6. Jet lag.

Get a good night’s sleep the day before you travel, drink plenty of water, and don’t get boozed up on the plane or during layovers. This will make the effects of jet lag much worse.

7. Jackets.

For all of you who tend to be cold-natured, myself included, remember to bring a light jacket or sweatshirt with you for the plane ride. The flight temperature is set somewhat cooler than most people care for, as the body temperature of all those passengers and crew will warm up the plane considerably (it’s the same in restaurants, theaters, and cinemas). In order to keep the plane at a non-stifling temperature, it’s set to cool. A light jacket, sweatshirt, or blanket will keep you comfortable.

8. Alcohol.

Though it was briefly mentioned under jet lag, alcohol can seriously affect your body while traveling. Drinking may seem like a great idea on a horribly long flight or layover, but keep it to a minimum. Too much alcohol will dehydrate you, and dehydration intensifies the effects of jet lag. Your body will have a hard enough time adjusting without you hindering it with too many miniature bottles of tequila.

Just follow the above points and you will find your flight quite enjoyable and with no trouble at all that will help you in maintaining your sanity without having to rack your brains at any airport in Washington State will not allow an insane person to travel on their airlines in any case.

There are many Garden centers in my area. They have so many beautiful flowers to choose from and it’s hard to choose which ones to purchase for your patio. The varieties are amazing. First and foremost start with a plan. The best thing to do is sit down with a paper and pen and map out a plan of action. Pick a color theme for your flowers and stick with it. Without a plan, you can end up spending too much money and the end result may not be what you had in mind.  This is why the best way to plant flowers in your patio and maintain them on your own is using patio daybeds that will make it much easier for you to control the growth of your plants without spending too much of your time. 

Be very sure to avoid disappointment by following your plan and you should have no problems. Shop around for a garden center or a discount store that you like. One suggestion is to make sure it’s close to home in case you forget something and have to go back. You’ll need to purchase enough hanging baskets and potting soil to complete your theme. I always buy miracle-gro to enrich the plants. It’s very important that your hanging baskets have drainage holes in the bottom of your pots for good drainage. This is so important. Buy some containers to place on the ground around the patio. I like long containers, round and square containers. It makes a nice variety for your patio.

I know Planting flowers yourself does involve a certain amount of work but I do promise you that if you tackle this project it will be very worthwhile and you will save money at the same time. The enjoyment and beauty of flowers will make our efforts worth it. With the economy like it is we should all try to save money any way that we can. But with a little work, we can still surround ourselves with beauty.

To save your manicure purchase garden gloves and use them during the planting process. Line your containers up on a picnic table. Place small stones at the bottom of each pot for good drainage. This is a very important step because you always want water drainage. Next, fill them with potting soil about 3/4 full. Place each plant in your container. I always plant three plants in each pot because as they grow they make full blossoms and are so beautiful. After you have your plants in the pots fill in with potting soil to about a 1/2 inch from the lip of the pot. The reason for this is to leave enough room for when you water. You don’t want to have potting soil running over the edge of your pot every time you give your plants water. It would get very messy. Flowers will be growing over the sides and your hanging basket will be as beautiful as any store-bought plant. The best part will be that you know you did all the work yourself. Make sure to water your plants and check them on a regular basis. Every three weeks I give my plants some miracle-gro. The nutrients are very good for your plants. My flowers of choice are inpatients and there is great a variety of colors. Red, Yellow, white, blue, purple and on and on. They are such beautiful flowers. Inpatients are my favorite but there are so many varieties of flowers and you may want to mix and match flowers for your patio. Sometimes I will also plant marigolds in a big barrel. I like the light yellow marigolds but again it just depends on what you like.

If you do decide to plant flowers on your patio I know you will be pleasantly surprised at the beautiful blossoms that have been created by you with a little time and effort.

Window treatments are ideally up to your own personal taste and conviction. No laws are yet on the books that say you can’t hang purple floor-length drapes on a bay window. The matter of aesthetics says otherwise, of course. Those long drapes in that garish hue simply aren’t going to be appealing to the average homeowner. The type of window you are dealing with goes a long way toward dictating what kind of treatment it should be given.

There are not too many affordable window cleaning service in Leeds and drapes are anyway too expensive to be purchased by anyone. Besides, certain people aren’t very fond of long drapes as it does not go down well with the size and design of their house but if you’re quite well off financially, there’s simply no harm in trying it out and see how it goes down.

Corner Windows

Corner windows have a nasty history of befuddling homeowners when it comes to treatment, but the answer could not be simpler. Rather than trying to connect the two windows together in some way, simply use matching swags that drape down on the outer sides to the length of the bottom portion of the sill. Symmetry can do wonders for a corner window so be creative with colors, patterns or designs.

French Doors

French Doors are another window type that can give some people the fits when it comes to an effective treatment. The rule to live by when treating French Doors is that when the doors open outward, just about any kind of window treatment style is up for grabs. The problem comes when the French Doors open into a room. The treatment you choose must be functional as well as decorative in that it has to be clear the door frame or else be attached directly to the doors themselves. Sheer draperies match the delicate elegance of French Door design.

Double Hung Windows

Those lucky enough to have a house full of double hung windows are at the mercy only of their own taste and talent for interior decorating. The fact is that just about any window treatment is going to look good on a double hung window. You can go with long curtains or café drapes. You can get all fancy with balloon drapes or you can go with simple sheers. The choice is up to you.

Bay Windows

A good choice for bay windows is no treatment at all if you have no concerns about privacy or glare from the sun. Otherwise, café curtains add a nicely delicate touch. If the windows of your bay unit occupy little space, go with a valance. The artistry of a bay window is ideal for fanciful additions like swags and cascading drapes.

Sliding Window

There is only one ideal window treatment for a sliding window that is commonly utilized. Put up some drapes attached to a traverse rod or go with some sleek vertical blinds. Another option is to place Roman shades over your sliding window.

Casement Window

The utilitarian nature of casement windows makes them a good choice for blinds or shades. The addition of a decorative cornice above the windows can be integrated into the treatment to soften the equally utilitarian nature of blinds or shades.
