france holiday

Whats there to see in france? Theres no limit! My parents visited france earlier this year just in time to get around the city and celebrate France Independance day. There are great fireworks around the city, everywhere is packed with people and the city is alive during the night.

Many people whom i know visited places in France tells me that there is not much of night life available. It is hard to find a good place for food, places closes early except for pubs and bars. However when visiting France theres so much to do that you will definitely need that early night rest in Hotels in Paris to replenish your energy for the daylight outing! After all, visiting France is not all about just listening to the word Bonjour! isnt it?




When you visit France, you will never get bored. Expect to see magnificent buildings with cultures preserved in the cities around Paris. Not to be missed is the Eiffel tower that provides superb excellent view of the city. Its the view that will make you go WHOAAA for the rest of your trip! Not to forget, this is where Jackie Chan and Chris Tucker did the excellent fighting scenes filming of Rush Hour 3!



Then again, if you watch Mr.Bean's Holiday, you will know of this n-shaped building called Arc de Triomphe. I have no idea why but this building catches my attention immediately when watching the movie. Beautifully built and standing elegantly. A work of fine culture and engineering! amazing! After getting tired with walking around, perhaps even the historical national museum, get rest in many Paris Hotels available cheaply for your convenience!


not to forget the food and cuisine! they are of excellent quality. induldge yourself in french food definitely will keep your tastebuds going wild and makes you say YUMMY! in french if you know the word =) Be sure to carry around your friendly French dictionary! and also to get a good rest, pronounce Hôtels en Paris perfectly with your French accent =)France is a good place to be!

safe is not that safe?

im not sure if you guys have heard of this but ebay, a popular online bidding website is being attacked by hackers, and not just one of them but an entire botnet.

and its not just any attack, its a pretty sophisticated one with many changing techniques, which is hard to defend. Aladdin, a internet security company based on Israel first found out the attack that has been attacking for a few weeks and yet unnoticed. It is not just any phishing attack, it is a multi-stage attack with brutal force on ebay accounts. The attack seems to be targeting ebay UK while other geography may well be targeted as well.

With ebay holding over millions of credit card informations, personal and financial data, lets hope that it will not be leaked.

Threat employs phishing - Aladdin researchers identified cases where victims have entered their credentials in phishing sites controlled by the attackers, giving further opportunity for the attackers to quickly gain access to an even larger number of accounts. The phishing operation appears to be ongoing and continues to collect user information. Aladdin researchers have validated cases in which the botnet collected active eBay account details.
Potential UK focus - Aladdin security specialists have identified that a high percentage of the threat's efforts are targeted specifically at UK-based eBay account holders. The Trojan appears to separate its handling of accounts, distinguishing between accounts inside and outside of the United States.
"Through new infection and attack methods, this targeted threat shows that Trojans are continuing to evolve into extremely dynamic, adaptive tools for online criminals, resulting in a potentially damaging aftermath for its individual victims," said Ofer Elzam, director of product management for the Aladdin eSafe Business Unit and head of the Aladdin eSafe CSRT. "This eBay botnet attack is unique, and definitely not found through traditional security measures. Aladdin's innovative security specialists are closely monitoring this new threat and are notifying the Web sites we determine are infecting Web surfers."
eBay Botnet Attack
First discovered by the Aladdin eSafe CSRT, the first-of-its-kind threat uses a sophisticated Trojan that infects visitors of hacked Web sites worldwide. It then uses infected computers to conduct a sophisticated distributed attack on eBay accounts in an effort to steal personal financial information and potentially alter settings that can place sold items in the wrong hands. Aladdin researchers estimate the threat has gone undetected for several days and that hundreds of popular Web sites, regardless of local language or geography, could be affected and are still infecting visitors.
Continued momentum has been logged by the Aladdin eSafe CSRT, citing research gained through Aladdin's eSafe SecureSurfing solution -- a solution deployed by ISPs to block malware before it reaches their customers. The Aladdin CSRT continuously monitors online security events discovered by the SecureSurfing service in search of further details surrounding this complex threat.

so the best is not to buy anything now from ebay until they resolve the matter. i do have an account in ebay and i have bought stuffs over the past few months. Just handle your ebay bidding cravings or get your money 'poof!' eaten by them.

york York york

I LOVE NY! i always see that printed on tees and people wear that everywhere! even in HEROES first season, when the errr japanese guy who can travel through time went to NY, theres this guy wearing that teee too! However, if you do not have the superpower to return home upon reaching New York, you might as well travel to NY with Real Travel. Real Travel offers real people, real advices, real experiences and i think they forgot to add REAL FUN!

NY NY NY. getting around can be as frustrating. what more looking for New York Hotels. However always KISS on your trips. Keep it sweet and simple. Dont get too frustrated. Instead hang around the place, get to know the place. It is alright if you missed nice places that you really wanted to visit only after returning from the trip. After all, you will be on vacation only for few days not few years. So its best to get to know where and what to do there. Pre-book everything to make sure you are not missing all the fun. Of course, its best if you have friends or families over there that know the place much better.

But isnt NY just a city? Of course not. theres lots of fun where you can go shopping or even eat out. Its all up to you to explore. No place is ever boring, they are always unique.

now if only i can get vacation funds..i wanna go visit NY sometime...

staying safe online?

Do you guys know that IP is like your Identification Card on the WORLD WIDE WEB? Everytime you visit a webpage or chat online or download anything online or ANYTHING, you are recognized through your IP address. Which means that if you think that, heck I can just turn of my computer after downloading porn or anything, and they wont catch me. Its not true. There are already cases where security is concern. The police can even track your IP, the exact time you online (for dynamic IPs) with your internet service provider and BOOM. You get caught :p

There is a solution. Look out for softwares that protects your IP or rather hide IP address.
For example, have a look at their website. http://www.hide-my-ip-address.com/

You can right click on your streamyx status and see you IP. It’s the same on the website. Theres even your country flag there too! If you are concerned about going online without camouflaging, try out their product. Maybe that will keep you safe from you-know-who because u did you-know-what.

Watch what you plant!

you love the environment? you love the trees? you love planting?
but you got to watch what you plant!

GREENSBORO, N.C. - A 71-year-old woman was arrested on drug charges after a chest-high marijuana plant was found in her yard, a plant she said was meant to keep animals away from her garden.

A sheriff's deputy saw the plant as he drove past Betty Holt Walker's home earlier this month, according to Capt. Tony Caliendo of the Guilford County Sheriff's Department.

Shes 71 years old! thats way old!

Walker told the deputy she found the first plant _ which had grown to more than 4 feet tall when he saw it _ in her garden and repotted it. She said it was a special plant used to keep animals out of her front yard.

"This wasn't something that was meant to keep animals away," Caliendo said.

Do you think you believe her? Maybe she is selling them or maybe she REALLY doesnt know? Wow the judge is going to have a hard time.

Walker is due in court Sept. 12 to face charges of manufacturing marijuana and felony possession of marijuana. A daughter who lives in the home was unaware the plants were in the yard and was not charged, Caliendo said.(link)

Shes so old already. How are they going to prosecute her? Jail? Most probably she will be fined. But does that mean old people can break the law? or Rob the bank?

Home theater

If i have a new place to stay, this is definitely going into my house:




i mean LOOK AT IT!(a big good look please!) look at the flawless design, exquisite taste, the aura, the smell of it. It makes me go high, thats why i LOVE IT. its going to complement the color of my new place, makes the guests go woo waaa weee and everyone is going to like it. Talk bout having a real cinema(much more comfortable) in your home! This is what my home theater system is missing!

Well, thats my favorite piece out of many other excellent furnitures from GalleryFurniture.com It pleases me to see the designs i like before planning to buy it. It makes side by side comparisons easier and i don't have to waste my time going from store to store looking for what i want. If you are having troubles with finding furnitures, hop on to Houston furniture

Best of all you can get everything there. from the furniture set to the HIFI to the accessories. That way we can get more discount!

They provides excellent service and excellent discount. Plus there are also financing help for you to manage your budget with them, your furniture plan and theres also custom designs. Whichever way you want it they have it. In fact, the sales representatives will guide you throughout your buying process. Give them a call or email them. I find this service to be very useful, especially after-service. Many furniture look good when they arrive but its not actually true after a couple of weeks. Maybe the color can fade or the wood is not properly done. Buying furniture can actually be a hassle! therefore always look out for reliable sellers. Gallery Furniture gives good first impression and also many excellent looking products. Quality may seem to be their thing. Why not give them a try?

Weight loss as a plan

weight loss can be troublesome. and if you dont come up with a plan, it wont work. you will stay fat. :(

"If you don't have a plan, you're not going to lose weight," says the study's author, preventive-medicine specialist Dr. Warren Thompson, whose research was published in August's Mayo Clinic Proceedings.

Having a weight loss plan is crucial. It can be done with your nutiritionist, fitness intructor or the doctor. But dont just stop at a PLAN! discipline is very important. im having dicipline issued with my diet. eveytime i go on diet i will be on diet for real. then not long after ill be eating again, EVEN WORSE than before!

"I've had a patient whose mother whispered the letters w-e-i-g-h-t to me, with her hand over her mouth so the child couldn't see. I could tell it was something they had thought about and didn't want to bring up with the child," says Jacobson. Still, he insists that doctors must discuss the topic. One way to do so gently, he says, is to avoid the word obese and instead say the child has a weight problem. Doctors may also tell kids that their weight is a couple of years ahead of their age. Then, Jacobson says, he focuses the discussion more on the behaviors that could help improve the situation--like watching less TV and playing outside more--instead of concentrating principally on shape.

face the reality. if I am fat, I AM FAT!. a thousand people lying to you saying you are not when you ARE wont help. in the end you will only lie to yourself. WHY? does fat people have health problems? YES. and a million people who thinks you are still slim will not get rid of the increased risk of health disease.

"You don't want to make people feel embarrassed and not want to come back to you. You want them to get treated," he says. Jacobson stresses that every pediatrician should determine a child's body-mass index (BMI)--a figure arrived at by factoring weight and height to produce a two-digit number that roughly diagnoses obesity. BMI is an imperfect metric, in part because it does a poor job of taking body type and muscle mass into consideration, meaning that a stocky person with low body fat can be labeled obese. But as a starting point, BMI helps.

None of this absolves patients or parents from stepping forward and bringing up weight on their own. But whoever raises the topic, it's important for patients and doctors alike to remember that modest amounts of weight loss can disproportionately benefit overall health, even if the loss doesn't feel or look like much. That fact may be the best reason for everyone to show a little courage and say what needs to be said----even if it hurts a bit.

Attic Lifts= safe

Ohh you most probably have heard bout attic lift. Yup that’s right. Lift that ‘lifts’ you up to the attic. Of course they are safe for Human as well as for bringing up anything you want to store in the attic. Well I do have an attic in the bungalow but it’s just a small place. However if you do have attic, you would know how dangerous it is for carrying heavy boxes and climbing the ladder at the same time.


So save the hassle and get an attic lift.

Makes life a lot easier, safer and somehow fun too :p


Now Santa can have a safe journey from the attic during Christmas for those who does not have a fireplace.

watch where you step...err i mean SMS!

think its cool to sms when you walk around?

think againnnn

Officials think that Zachariah Smith was so engrossed in sending a text message Monday that he didn't notice a train - until it hit him as he crossed tracks in Elmwood Place.

Smith, 18, was on Township Avenue about 10 a.m. Monday waiting to cross the tracks. The gates were down to allow a CSX train to continue its southbound route.

When that train passed, Smith, apparently too intent on texting, was hit by a northbound Norfolk Southern train that he didn't see coming from the other direction. He was thrown about 50 feet.
ADVERTISEMENT

Smith was taken to University Hospital, where he was listed in serious condition.

"The horn was blowing like mad, and the kid was text-messaging," Ellison said.

"The kid apparently was just daydreaming."

Officials suspect that Smith confused the horn and noise made by the oncoming train with that of the train that had just passed him heading south.

Deer Park's Mike Billups saw the train hit Smith, knocking him through the air and, at least at first, knocking him out.


"Initially, I thought he had cleared the train until I saw (Smith) from underneath the train lying on the ground," Billups said.

So the next time you sms, do it somewhere safe. even when i sms while walking around the campus i do bump into a lot of people. so never sms on the road. instead, the safest place to sms would be in
