Letter from all INDIANS to Prime Minister regarding 26/11 terrorist attact

Dear Mr. Prime minister
I am a typical mouse from Mumbai. In the local train compartment which has capacity of 100 persons, I travel with 500 more mouse. Mouse at least squeak but we don't even do that.

Today I heard your speech. In which you said 'NO BODY WOULD BE SPARED'. I would like to remind you that fourteen years has passed since serial bomb blast in Mumbai took place. Dawood was the main conspirator. Till today he is not caught. All our bollywood actors, our builders, our Gutka king meets him but your Government can not catch him. Reason is simple; all your ministers are hand in glove with him. If any attempt is made to catch him everybody will be exposed. Your statement 'NOBODY WOULD BE SPARED' is nothing but a cruel joke on this unfortunate people of India .

Enough is enough. As such after seeing terrorist attack carried out by about a dozen young boys I realize that if same thing continues days are not away when terrorist will attack by air, destroy our nuclear reactor and there will be one more Hiroshima .

We the people are left with only one mantra. Womb to Bomb to Tomb. You promised Mumbaikar Shanghai what you have given us is Jalianwala Baug.

Today only your home minister resigned. What took you so long to kick out this joker? Only reason was that he was loyal to Gandhi family. Loyalty to Gandhi family is more important than blood of innocent people, isn't it?

I am born and bought up in Mumbai for last fifty eight years. Believe me corruption in Maharashtra is worse than that in Bihar . Look at all the politician, Sharad Pawar, Chagan Bhujbal, Narayan Rane, Bal Thackray, Gopinath Munde, Raj Thackray, Vilasrao Deshmukh all are rolling in money. Vilasrao Deshmukh is one of the worst Chief Minister I have seen. His only business is to increase the FSI every other day, make money and send it to Delhi so Congress can fight next election. Now the clown has found new way and will increase FSI for fisherman so they can build concrete house right on sea shore. Next time terrorist can comfortably live in those houses, enjoy the beauty of sea and then attack the Mumbai at their will.

Recently I had to purchase house in Mumbai. I met about two dozen builders. Everybody wanted about 30% in black. A common person like me knows this and with all your intelligent agency & CBI you and your finance minister are not aware of it. Where all the black money goes? To the underworld isn't it? Our politicians take help of these goondas to vacate people by force. I myself was victim of it. If you have time please come to me, I will tell you everything.

If this has been land of fools, idiots then I would not have ever cared to write you this letter. Just see the tragedy, on one side we are reaching moon, people are so intelligent and on other side you politician has converted nectar into deadly poison. I am everything Hindu, Muslim, Christian, Schedule caste, OBC, Muslim OBC, Christian Schedule caste, Creamy Schedule caste only what I am not is INDIAN. You politician have raped every part of mother India by your policy of divide and rule.

Take example of former president Abdul Kalam. Such an intelligent person, such a fine human being. You politician didn't even spare him. Your party along with opposition joined the hands, because politician feels they are supreme and there is no place for good person.

Dear Mr. Prime minister you are one of the most intelligent person, most learned person. Just wake up, be a real SARDAR. First and foremost expose all selfish politicians. Ask Swiss bank to give name of all Indian account holders. Give reins of CBI to independent agency. Let them find wolf among us. There will be political upheaval but that will better than dance of death which we are witnessing every day. Just give us ambient where we can work honestly and without fear. Let there be rule of law. Everything else will be taken care of.

Choice is yours Mr. Prime Minister. Do you want to be lead by one person or you want to lead the nation of 100 Crore people?

(Note: I got this in my mail and felt like sharing with my all readers. If you feel, this has your feelings too then PLEASE dont forget to REGISTER your self in War Against Terriorism by registering at India Today Network.

Pre-School Learning - Strategies to Make Learning Fun

Pre-school children learn an amazing amount of information and many skills and concepts in the first few years of their lives. They do so mainly through play. Parents can enhance their child's learning experience by using imaginative strategies to ensure that learning is associated with fun and excitement.

Learning should be like a trip to the seaside. It should excite, enchant and entertain.

Many adults can remember the thrilling chaos of packing swimming costumes, toys, food, drinks and not forgetting the dog. They might recall the agony of the long drive and the traffic jams, then the excitement of catching the first glimpse of the sea through the surrounding buildings. Finally, there was the ocean - a heaving, blue, mysterious invitation to splash, run, jump, roll, swim, scream, and laugh. The warm, gleaming sand was just waiting to be turned into a grand castle, a racing car with buckets for wheels or a giant funny face!

Pre-school learning ought to be like that. Parents and caregivers of pre-school children can instil that feeling of anticipation and joy when first they set out to teach their pre-schoolers.

Take learning to colour and paint. This is an activity that can entertain children for hours and it is easy to make it more than a quiet past-time.

Parents can start with a trip to the stationery shop which can be made into an adventure with a little imagination. Beforehand, children can be allowed to select pictures of paint pots, brushes, crayons and drawing paper from an old store catalogue or magazine. These can then be cut out and stuck onto a piece of paper. What a great shopping list for a pre-reading child!

Apart from the delight of choosing lots of colourful items in the shop, the pre-school child will also learn about which shops sell which items, about categories of goods as they look for pencils and crayons in one place and paper and books in another and the exchange of money for goods (let them hand over the money).

At home, a special space can be created where the child can draw, paint and colour. It should be clear, clutter-free with everything nearby in handy containers. These are easily made from shoe boxes (for pots of paints and paintbrushes), used plastic tubs (for crayons), clean ice cream cartons (for clean water to wash brushes) and egg cartons (to mix the paints in). If necessary, steps can be taken to ensure the child is able to work freely without worrying about making a mess of carpets and furniture.

Everything is then in place for the pre-schooler to let his or her imagination take over. If the child wants to really spread out, a roll of lining paper from the wallpaper shop is a great idea. There can be no limit to the size of a monster or a car or a drawing of mummy. The paper can simply be rolled to whatever length the child needs.

Playtimes can be greatly enhanced with music, movement and stories. Children love to dance and sing. Parents can join in by dancing with the child to a nursery rhyme or hopping around like Brer Rabbit. The child will enjoy helping to make a star to sing Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star to or going on a treasure hunt around the room with Mum or Dad. The pre-schooler can be encouraged to make up his or her own song accompanied by drums (biscuit tin and wooden spoon), flute (cardboard roll from the kitchen paper towel) and rattle (rice or pasta in a plastic bottle).

When children associate feelings of happiness and excitement with an activity, they learn that activity more readily and this is especially so when parents join in. With a little planning and imagination, parents can provide pre-school children with the opportunity to have happy experiences that will help them develop a positive attitude to learning.

Invest in Family With a Malibu Boat for Christmas

The Malibu Boat Rockin' Christmas Event is helping parents invest back into their families with a gift of fun, togetherness and years of priceless memories in a Malibu boat.


Merced, CA (Vocus/PRWEB ) November 5, 2008 -- Malibu Boats and participating dealers nation-wide are celebrating Christmas 2008 with the Malibu Boat Rockin' Christmas Event. The Rockin' Christmas Event is helping parents invest back into their families with the gift of a Malibu boat this holiday season. During this event the Malibu Boats factory and the national dealer network will help parents pull off a string of once-in-a-lifetime Christmas surprises. They are giving huge factory incentives on inventoried boats and throwing in a boatload of water sports gifts, lessons and service. This is a Malibu Boats package the entire family will love opening on December 25th. Malibu dealers are even making the gift presentation as memorable as the gift itself by working with families to develop personalized Christmas surprises. Malibu Boats is taking the hassle out of the busiest time of the year with a total family Christmas solution that is a gift of fun, togetherness and years of priceless memories.


Malibu suggests, instead of giving traditional, individual gifts, families give each other the gift of fun, togetherness and memories in the form of a Malibu boat. When you add up what the average American family spends on mp3 players, gift cards, phones, computers, trips, video game systems, clothes and other "family distracting" gifts, Malibu thinks you will see more than enough for a sizeable down payment on a boat. Add in the return on investment of quality time the entire family will enjoy together and a Malibu boat becomes priceless. That is where the Malibu Boat Rockin' Christmas Event comes in.


Malibu Boats along with your local dealer is offering huge factory incentives on the boats they have in inventory if purchased during the Rockin' Christmas Event. These discounts could add up to as much as $20,000 on certain models. Malibu dealers are also providing special financing during the event.


When you purchase a Malibu boat during the Rockin' Christmas Event, your family will receive more to open under the tree. Boating and water sports accessories for the whole family will be included in your Malibu Christmas package. Malibu is also providing each family with an Official Malibu Merchandise shopping spree. Malibu dealers are throwing in gift certificates for boating and driving lessons or the chance to ski or ride with a Malibu Pro Team Member. Your local Malibu dealer is even ringing in the New Year with free scheduled service as part of this package. The Malibu Boat Rockin' Christmas Event eliminates the hassle commonly associated with the holiday season by doing all the shopping for you. Malibu has even taken it a step further by easing the planning that goes along with a surprise of this magnitude.


Local Malibu dealers across the country are planning amazing surprises for families receiving boats as a part of the Rockin' Christmas Event. You can work with your Malibu dealer and their elves to present the boat and gifts at the time and place of your choosing. Your Malibu dealer can unveil the boat during your yearly Christmas get-together. You could even work with your dealer to stage the surprise at the dealership. However the presentation of the gifts goes down you will have all the help you will need from your Malibu dealer to make a very special Christmas memory.


Visit your local Malibu Boats dealer to get more information about the Malibu Boat Rockin' Christmas Event. If you are not familiar with your nearest dealer visit the Malibu Boats web site's dealer locator.

About Facial Tics

Facial tics are frequently associated with conditions such as Tourette’s Syndrome, and are a common ailment in many children.

They can manifest in many different ways: a facial tics can appear as repetitive and excessive blinking, or habitual squinting of the eyes. Also experienced can be tics that affect the mouth, wrinkling of the nose and other symptoms such as repeated grunting and clearing of the throat.
Facial tics come and go – some last only a short time – and can change across time, another symptom of them being associated with more serious conditions.

Drugs and side effects
Popular ways to treat the causes of facial tics involve prescription drugs, but these can come with a number of known side effects. Nausea and vomiting can be a result, as can feelings of depression and anxiety, and in some cases mood swings and uncharacteristic violent behaviour can result from the effect of drugs.

In many cases the drug affects the patient in such away that the facial tics become worse, a situation that can be difficult for young children to cope with and understand.

The root of the problem
There are natural ways of treating and eliminating the embarrassing and unpleasant presence of facial tics, and the first step is to discover the source of the problem in order to treat it correctly.

It could be that the child is anxious about certain facets of his or her life, or that an illness has not been diagnosed, one that could be responsible for the facial tic. In either case it is vital that the root cause is uncovered, as only then can treatment to eliminate the problem begin.

Facial tics can be treated effectively and with quick and great success without the need for potentially harmful prescription drugs.

Advertise on YouTube Videos

AdnTube.com unveils a new service providing advertisers with opportunities to put ads on millions of videos submitted to YouTube and similar sites.

Hartford, CT (PRWEB) October 7, 2008 -- AdnTube.com announces the launch of its online service connecting advertisers and YouTubers for agreement to put ads on videos. Monetary adnTube Logoincentives are offered to videographers (YouTubers, metacafe-ers, etc.). Rather than the pre-roll or after-roll ads inserted by most video hosting sites, these ads are blended into the content of the videos during the video-making process, much like videos showing James Bond driving a Ferrari, a college dorm room with a Dell Inspirion laptop on the desk, or an actress sipping from a Starbucks Tall coffee cup.

Advertisers post ad requirements on AdnTube.com. Requirements include parameters such as ad type (text, image, audio), ad content, ad duration and frequency, and minimum number of video views by a certain date. A videographer evaluates any such requirement, selects an advertiser of interest, and then creates a video attempting to satisfy all requirements specified by that advertiser. The videographer receives payment from the advertiser if the created video satisfies all specified requirements by a certain date.

While video advertising is emerging as a new advertising star, this "Make videos to make money, advertise for video advertising" service, according to AdnTube.com, is offering tremendous opportunities for marketers to seek appearance in online videos viewed by millions on popular social network sites such as YouTube and MySpace on a daily basis.

Do the 'Impossible': How to Create Exciting Photographs and Effects with Cutting Edge HDR Photography

Discover how photographing in previously hopeless lighting conditions is now possible, with tips on new High Dynamic Range or HDR photography.

Boone, NC (PRWEB) September 25, 2008 -- Now you can take great photographs despite challenging light conditions, or learn to create astonishing and artistic high quality visual effects. What photographers used to think was virtually impossible just got a whole lot easier with High Dynamic Range or HDR photography.

In this week's free 7 Photography Questions podcast with host Dr. Audri Lanford, master photographer Tony Sweet, the author of four books and hundreds of articles, answers 7 of the biggest questions about HDR photography -- which is one of the most exciting new areas of digital photography.

"With HDR photography," explains Sweet, "The photographer can emphasize shadows or tone them down, because HDR provides complete control over the entire dynamic range of the image. The important thing is to get familiar with what HDR software can do and learn how to expose images so you get all the highlights and all the shadows. Once you get those two things nailed down, you're on your way."

Sweet gives easy to understand answers to the most asked HDR photography questions:
=> The biggest secret photographers need to know to get the best HDR images.
=> How many different exposures to take for optimum results.
=> The preferred format for shooting HDR and the best HDR software to use.
=> Which types of cameras, lenses, and accessories to use for HDR.
=> How to choose the ideal subjects for shooting HDR images.
=> Exercises listeners can do to improve their HDR photography skills.

Towards the end of the interview, Sweet shares his own HDR photographs and explains how he got their various unique looks and amazing effects. Go here to find the current interview called "HDR Photography - An Interview with Tony Sweet".

Parents.com Offers Professional Photography Tips for Taking Winning Pregnant Belly Pictures for Best Baby Bump contest

Five secrets for taking great pregnant belly photos - from little baby bumps to big pregnant bellies - and expert advice from maternity photographers on the best poses.

New York, NY (PRWEB) August 20, 2008 -- Parents.com, the online home of American Baby, Family Circle, and Parents magazine, today offered five professional photography tips for taking winning pregnant belly pictures to upload to its Best Baby Bump Contest. In addition to sharing five secrets for taking great pregnant belly photos - from little baby bumps to big pregnant bellies - Parents.com also shared advice from top maternity photographers on the best poses.

Liz Zack, Executive Editor of Parents.com, says, "We collected top tips from the pros on how to take the very best pregnant belly pics. In addition to gathering the 5 secrets to beautiful pregnant belly photos, we also polled our expert maternity photographers about their favorite poses."

The Best Baby Bump Contest started June 27, 2008, and ends September 30, 2008. Photos must be .jpeg or .bmp image formats and cannot exceed 3 MB. Photos must be original, unpublished and may not have won any prize or award. Entries must be received at http://www.parents.com/bump-contest by 11:59 p.m., E.T., on September 30, 2008.

Here are 5 secrets to beautiful pregnant belly photos:

1. Wait until you're big, but not too big:
You want your belly to be big and beautiful, but you don't want it to be so large that posing and holding different positions for any length of time becomes taxing. Professional photographer Mariah Milan Dagupion suggests taking photos right around 30 weeks. That's when your belly gets really round, she says, but it's not too heavy yet. Of course each pregnancy and pregnant belly is different so use your own stamina as a guide.

2. Avoid background clutter:
Just like professional photographers, style your backdrop. So think about what's behind you. When choosing your location, avoid standing in front of a messy living room - or worse, a messy bathroom. Instead, lie mermaid-style on a solid-color couch or tape some ironed white sheets to the wall and--voila--an instant studio backdrop. Or change things up and step outside: Pick a tranquil spot in your backyard or nearby park or beach to set up camp. We love the leaning-up-against-a-tree look, or, if you're at the beach, try a profile shot, where you're sitting up and looking out at the sea.

3. Turn off the flash:
The on-camera flash will be a total wash-out. Maternity photographer Ashley McNamara suggests standing right in front of an open door or window to get great natural light instead. If you're shooting outside avoid mid-day sun. "The best times to go outside are early in the morning or an hour or two before sunset when there's that golden, sun-tanned, highlights-in-the-hair light," Dagupion says.

4. Wear something tight and stretchy:
The whole point of the shoot is to see the gorgeous belly, right? Tight, stretchy clothes will best accentuate all your great curves.

"Never wear maternity clothes," Hart says, since their primary objective is often to feel good on, rather than flatter your shape. McNamara recommends trying some fitted Gap or Old Navy tank tops in solid colors instead.

"Skip the florals, plaids, and checks," maternity photog Koren Reyes stresses. "You want to be able to look back at these pictures in 10 or 20 years and still think the photos look great. Whereas really stylized clothes can get dated, solid darks and neutrals are timeless."

Alternatively, skip clothes entirely. "I have a set of sheer curtains from Target, and I use one panel to wrap the breasts and another panel to wrap the belly," McNamara says.

5. Find a great photographer:You want someone you feel comfortable with and will have fun around taking your picture. If your husband fits the bill, ask him to take the pics (and also to haul any extra props or equipment). Or plan a fun photo date with one of your girlfriends.

Poses to Try:
Here are a few of our expert maternity photographers favorite poses:
=> Close up on the belly
=> You lying on your back on a couch.
=> Older sibling kissing the belly
=> You holding older sibling (so they're sitting on the belly facing you)
=> Sitting Indian style, facing the camera
=> Working the S curve (one hip out, one shoulder high, one shoulder low, hands relaxed. Think, supermodel!)
=> Profile shot
=> Any yoga poses you know (and can get into easily)

Zack adds, "Show us your gorgeous belly! Enter your best big, beautiful belly pics in our Belly Photo Contest now for the chance to win $2500."

Mercedes-Benz Launch New Sports Coupé with fun factor



Mercedes-Benz has unveiled a stand-alone model series in the guise of the new CLC-Class, the compelling entry-level model in the Mercedes-Benz coupé family. The Sports Coupé's design, technology and equipment meet the discerning requirements of young drivers looking for an athletic car that gives an involving drive, while at the same time delivering the hallmark Mercedes quality standards in terms of safety, comfort, environmental compatibility and functionality.

Canberra, ACT, Australia (PRWEB) August 13, 2008 -- Mercedes-Benz has unveiled a stand-alone model series in the guise of the new CLC-Class, the compelling entry-level model in the Mercedes-Benz coup&amily. The Sports CoupĂł design, technology and equipment meet the discerning requirements of young drivers looking for an athletic car that gives an involving drive, while at the same time delivering the hallmark Mercedes quality standards in terms of safety, comfort, environmental compatibility and functionality.

Compared with the previous Sports Coup the Mercedes engineers have newly developed or enhanced over 1100 components. Engineering highlights of the new CLC 200 Kompressor include a new direct-steer system for even more agile cornering, state-of-the-art infotainment systems featuring a colour display, DVD-based navigation and media interface, as well as an uprated four-cylinder engine that now develops 135 kW. Fuel consumption has been reduced by up to seven percent compared with the outgoing model.

The compact body dimensions and the muscular lines emphasise the sporty appearance of the new Mercedes CLC-Class. The Mercedes designers have completely redesigned the front and rear so that the Sports Coup%mbodies the contemporary Mercedes design idiom with its distinctive coup2adiator grille featuring a large Mercedes star in the centre, and the new projection-beam headlamps.

The luxurious S-Class Saloon, the stunning CL-Class Coup!nd the award-winning Mercedes C-Class provided the stylistic cues for this new coup-odel.

The redesigned large tailgate conceals a variable boot with up to 1100 litres of luggage capacity. The new tail lights, the long row of LEDs which make up the third brake light unit and the rear bumper subdivide the rear and emphasise its width.

The interior of the new Mercedes-Benz CLC 200 Kompressor is akin to a contemporary tailor-made suit - custom-fit and comfortable. Sports seats with better lateral support than ever, a three-spoke multifunction steering wheel, automatic climate control and brushed aluminium trim elements form part of the standard specification.

For the standard model, a choice of ARTICO/fabric upholstery combinations in black, alpaca grey and a particularly stylish combination of black and red are available to give the interior its individual colour scheme.

CLC 200 KOMPRESSOR EVOLUTION and EVOLUTION with new direct-steer system and 17-inch wheels.

Mercedes-Benz has put together two special design and equipment lines for drivers seeking additional sporting flair. They include exclusive engineering innovations and equipment extras such as uniquely-designed 17-inch light-alloy wheels, wide-base tyres, bi-xenon headlamps with cornering light function and headlamp cleaning system. Another special feature which the Mercedes CLC-Class inherits from its racing car counterparts is the instrument cluster with red needles for the speedometer and rev counter. Once the engine is switched on, these needles spin once around the dial before returning to their start positions.

The standard specification for both the EVOLUTION and EVOLUTION packages includes a new direct-steer system, which further enhances the agile driving experience of the CLC while adding an important boost to safety. This new feature is based on the speed-sensitive power steering and also offers a variable rack ratio which changes as a function of the steering angle so that the driver only has to turn the wheel slightly when cornering; the CLC Sports Coup`therefore responds far more spontaneously to steering commands and offers even sportier handling. As a result, the direct-steer system also improves handling safety in critical situations - for instance when taking sudden evasive action - as the field tests conducted by the Mercedes engineers demonstrate.

Engines: fuel consumption reduced by seven percent.

Mercedes-Benz offers its popular and proven supercharged 1.8-litre four-cylinder petrol engine in the new CLC. This 135 kW powerplant in the CLC 200 KOMPRESSOR now develops an extra 15 kW (compared to the previous-generation C-Class Sports Coup) while consuming just 8.4 litres of petrol per 100 kilometres (fitted with automatic transmission, according to ADR 81/01) - the equivalent of up to 0.6 litres less than before. The combined cycle fuel consumption figure for the CLC KOMPRESSOR fitted with a manual transmission is 7.8-litres per 100km travelled (according to ADR 81/01), a reduction of more than 10 percent over the previous-generation Mercedes C-Class Sports Coup

A five-speed automatic transmission is fitted as standard equipment. Mercedes-Benz can also supply a six-speed manual transmission as a no-cost option. In combination with the EVOLUTION and EVOLUTION packages, the driver can use gearshift paddles on the steering wheel to manually select the gears of the automatic transmission and make optimum use of the engine's power reserves when the driving situation calls for it.

Success story: Sports Coup7ith extensive conquest potential:

The new CLC-Class is the successor to a successful Mercedes model, one which has been the choice of some 320,000 drivers around the world since 2001.

The majority of these people were new Mercedes customers.

Its high conquest rate of some 70 percent made the Sports Coup/ne of the most successful Mercedes models in the Mercedes strategic product initiative. With the help of a compelling two-door model, the Stuttgart-based car maker has managed to fire customers' imagination over the long term. Over 40 percent of buyers opted for a larger Mercedes model after the Sports Coup!nd are currently driving an E-Class, CLK coup/r cabriolet or an SLK roadster.

Five Insider Secrets About Cell Phones

Five cell phone myths. Five real answers. Net10 uncovers the truth behind the most commonly asked cell phone questions.

Miami, FL (PRWEB) August 12, 2008 -- Not all cellular carriers are created equal. That's why it can pay to shop around before signing up for any particular service. But it may surprise many consumers to know that if they're unhappy with their cell service, they can change it - and that doing so is a lot easier than many people realize.

The following facts about cell phones and wireless carriers, as compiled by Net10 (a brand of TracFone Wireless, Inc., the largest prepaid mobile phone service provider in the U.S.), can help consumers who're tired of hidden fees, overage charges, lengthy contracts and cancellation penalties:

Myth: Anyone who cancels a cell phone contract is subject to a cancellation fee of about $175.

Fact: Once a user is past the initial due date of the contract, he or she can't be charged a cancellation fee. If the contract was for two years, at the end of those two years it automatically renews on a month-to-month basis, not for another two-year term.

Myth: Contract service plans are a better value than prepaid plans.

Fact: Those who use less than 500 minutes per month are better off with a prepaid plan. At 10 cents per minute for a prepaid plan, 500 minutes costs $50. The average monthly contract costs as much as $68. Plus, those who go over their minutes on a contract plan can pay as much as 45 cents per minute additional. That can really add up.

Myth: Users who switch to prepaid plans can't take the old phone number with them.

Fact: Those who are already on a contract cell phone plan can move their current cell phone number to a prepaid plan with no penalty.

Myth: Users get better phone reception on a contract plan.

Fact: Reputable prepaid cell phone providers use the networks of major regional and national wireless carriers, giving them a vast national coverage area with the same quality of reception.

Myth: The only way to get the best phones is by signing a lengthy contract.

Fact: Top manufacturers such as Motorola, Nokia, Kyocera and LG now offer their top brand name phones for prepaid plans.

Consumers who are dissatisfied with their current cell phone contracts should learn their rights and options. To learn more, visit http://www.no-evil.net/.

About NET10
Net10 is a brand of TracFone Wireless Inc., the largest prepaid mobile phone service provider in the U.S., for the 12 years since it was founded. TracFone is a subsidiary of America Movil (NYSE:AMX), the fourth largest mobile phone company in the world, and the largest in all of the Americas with more than 163 million mobile phone subscribers - more than AT&T, Verizon or Sprint.

Lights, Camera...Auctions! It's Craigslist Meets YouTube Meets eBay As Listasaurus.Com Launches Video Auctions

Listasaurus.com, the first online classifieds site to pay users for listing their ads and one of the few to offer video classifieds, has just added auctions to their list of features, making it the first website to offer video auctions. Listasaurus.com offers standard classified listings like Craigslist, a Business Directory similar to the Yellow Pages, and now auction-style sales similar to eBay, all that allow video uploading capabilities like YouTube.

Ft. Lauderdale, FL (PRWEB) August 7, 2008 -- Listasaurus.com, the first online classifieds site to pay users for listing their ads and one of the few to offer video classifieds, has just added auctions to their list of features, making it the first website to offer video auctions. Listasaurus.com offers standard classified listings like Craigslist, a Business Directory similar to the Yellow Pages, and now auction-style sales similar to eBay, all that allow video uploading capabilities like YouTube.

"We decided to implement auctions because many of our users were asking for that capability," says Melanie Heywood, Founder and CEO of Listasaurus.com. "Also, we know many people are frustrated with the high fees at eBay, so we wanted to offer some relief from that. And including video in auctions offers a layer of detail you simply can't achieve with just a photo or text, so we hope it will help sellers achieve more success."

Right now, Listasaurus.com pays its users to list their auctions, as well as regular classified ads, something that sets the site apart from ordinary free classifieds sites. With their Pay Per Listing Program, when an ad is placed in an eligible category, the user will receive 25 cents per listing. Eligible categories include Stuff for Sale, Free Stuff, and non-commercial Real Estate, Rentals and Vehicles. Listasaurus.com pays users once a month, with no minimum rewards amount required to receive payment. Eligible ads must include at least one original photo or video to get paid to list.

Unlike other video classifieds sites that require users to include a video in their ad, Listasaurus users can list classifieds and auctions with or without videos, and with or without photos---whatever works best for the individual. Listasaurus is totally committed to giving its users choices.

"The new auction capability will benefit users because some people prefer the auction format to classifieds, where they might be able to get a higher ending sale price due to demand for an item, rather than just a set price," explains Listasaurus Vice President Anderson Pinto. "We've also had some users say they never know what to charge for their items, so auctions give them a way to let the public decide what the price should be."

World-Renowned Yoga Guru Swami Ramdev's First Yoga Camp Near Washington D.C. a Grand Success!

Swami Ramdev, one of the most respected yoga practitioners in the world, recently put on his first ever yoga camp in the Washington D.C. area. The event was a huge success and completely sold out. More events are scheduled to follow around the United States and Europe.

Edison, NJ (PRWEB) August 2, 2008 -- Swami Ramdevji, the internationally renowned and iconic Indian yoga guru, with an audience of millions and one of the most important figures in the "Yoga for Health" movement conducted his first ever yoga camp in the Washington D.C. area July 23-27, 2008. Presented by Tathaastu: So Be It, the spiritual and holistic lifestyle magazine, in its effort to promote global well-being partnered with Divya Yog Mandir and Swami Ramdev.

The yoga camp held at the Dulles Expo & Convention Center was a sold out event with over 1500 people attending the yoga and Pranayama camp. Organized by Catch the Rhythms, Inc. and Georgy Bhaala, the yoga camp was a tremendous opportunity to learn under the tutelage of the famous guru who has transformed the life and health of millions of people in India and worldwide through his yoga workshops, TV shows and books. Swami Ramdev's philosophy is simple, he says "It is your birthright to pursue a disease-free, healthy, fit life; look beautiful & young; and get complete peace of mind and robust health."

Swami Ramdev has a practical and easy to follow approach to Pranayama (controlled breathing) and yoga. Air (vayu) - the essence of life when it is regulated and channeled helps promote a healthier more balanced life. Apart from the spiritual and meditation benefits of Pranayama and yoga, Swami Ramdev also focuses on health problems - ranging from heart disease, kidney disorders, diabetes, hypertension and others. India's top yoga teacher has a track record of restoring the health of millions of people caught up in modern day stresses and the heightened pace of corporate lifestyles. The feedback to the Yoga Camp was fantastic. Pratichi Mathur of Vedika Global, Inc from California enthused about the camp, "The Yoga Camp organized by Tathaastu: So Be It magazine honestly exceeded all my expectations. It was fun, educational, stimulating and above all super organized. While interacting with the participants who had come from all over USA, it was obvious that this camp was meeting a serious need for learning alternative means to well-being and health. I think the 5-day format of methodical teaching is also an excellent idea that ensures thoroughness of learning and minimizes error in home practice." Devinder Goyal found it to be an exhilarating experience and said "It was a blissful experience meeting Swami Ramdev. His yoga techniques are simply splendid."

On July 23rd, the first day of the camp, the ceremonial lamp was lit by the renowned spiritual healer, Chamunda Swami. The event was supported by some very well-known people in the South Asian community, these include: Harsh Sethi, Devinder Goyal, Manish Kutheala, Anil Bhasin, Dr. Ravinder Aulakh, Anil Chopra, Bharat Bhargava, Dr. Rajeev Khanna, Anil Gupta, Ashish Khosla, Kishan Narula, Sat Kapoor, Rajan Gangahr, Chamna Puri, Sunil Hali, Dr. Harvinder Kaur, Surjit Singh Mann and Dr. Satish Bhutani. Aastha TV was one of the main presenters of the event and will broadcast the yoga camp on its network.

Bharat Bhargava eloquently said: "Many of us in the Washington DC area have been ardent admirers of Swamiji already but the recent Yoga camp has electrified DC and the surrounding community. There is a new wave of enthusiasm and people are joining hands toward the collective pursuit and promotion of knowledge imparted by Swamiji. My wife Yog and I were privileged to have hosted a most remarkable dialogue between Swami Ramdevji and a vast number of physicians. It was an eye opener for us to learn how many doctors are also utilizing Swamiji's teachings already."

Harsh Sethi discovered the joy of practicing with Swami Ramdev: "Before you've practiced, the theory is useless. After you've practiced, the theory is obvious. The bottom line I have adopted in my life from Swamiji is 'Inhale, and God approaches you; Hold the inhalation, and God remains with you; Exhale, and you approach God. Hold the exhalation, and surrender to God.'"

Yoga which originated thousands of years ago is about achieving harmony - of the mind, body and soul. Swami Ramdev Yoga Camp was a fantastic opportunity to achieve a healthier body, peace of mind and a new you. http://www.yogacampdc.com/

Turn Personal Photos into Magazine Covers with MagMyPic.com

MagMyPic.com, a popular website that makes digital magazine covers with users' photos, will now let users purchase high quality prints of their magazine covers. The covers range from standard 8x10 prints to framed 16x20 posters and start at $9.95.

Scottsdale, AZ (PRWEB) July 31, 2008 -- A new website has launched an easy and fun service that turns personal photos into full fledged magazine covers. The website, http://www.magmypic.com/, introduced an easy process that allows even novice users to put their picture on the cover of a magazine. MagMyPic's newest feature allows users to purchase these magazine covers as full size prints.

MagMyPic.com first launched in October of 2007 as a free tool to make fake magazine covers online. Over 15 million magazines were created and distributed online within the first 10 months. After users clamored for the ability to purchase their magazine covers as real prints, MagMyPic built a system to do just that.

The result is a simple process that automates nearly everything for the user. Once a photo is selected, the site automatically uploads, crops, positions, and resizes it all behind the scenes. The user then simply selects which magazine cover to use. When a magazine is selected, an instant preview shows exactly how the final print will look.

The feature to purchase the magazine covers launched on July 16th, 2008. A standard 8x10 magazine cover costs $9.95. Covers can be printed as large as a 16x20 poster. This new feature also allows users to frame the pictures and purchase other novelty gifts such as mouse-pads and tee-shirts.

Matt Parrett, the lead developer behind MagMyPic.com, thinks the timing is good for buying prints. "With the economy and gas prices how they are, it's nice to have such a unique gift that's affordable and available from home."

Matt gives many examples of how these prints can be used as novelty gifts. A husband can surprise his wife with wedding pictures on the cover of Bride. A father-son photo on a sports magazine or a framed picture of the family dog on PetFancy are other examples. With over 30 magazines ranging from Style to Outdoors, a wide range of options are available.

"A lot of publishing companies have tried to make systems like this, but they always overcomplicated them," said Andy Holloway, the site's creator. "Our site actually makes it fun to make the magazine covers and users have been really impressed with their prints."

For additional information on personal magazine printing (or for a sample, copy or demo), contact Jason Moore or visit MagMyPic.com.

London (PRWEB) July 30, 2008 -- De Vere's of London, the diamond jewellers, have unveiled a 3G Apple iPhone studded with 88 diamonds commemorating Beijing's summer Olympics. 88 signifies double wealth in Chinese superstition.

Reminiscent of Cartier's Art Deco vanity cases of the 1920s, the diamond iPhones are exclusive to De Vere's of London.
28 Diamond 3G Apple iPhone
These desirable versions of Apple's smartphone join the £700 million ($1.4 billion) luxury cellphone market. A market driven by the new rich of China, Russia and the Middle East.

The 88 diamond iPhone commemorates the 2008 summer Olympics in Beijing, China.

In China, 8 is a very fortunate number". Explained Philip De Vere, founder of De Vere's of London and creator of the diamond iPhones. "The Chinese and Cantonese articulation and pronunciation of 8 sounds like the word signifying wealth, prosperity or fortune. This makes it a very important number in Chinese superstition. People pay huge sums of money for license plates and telephone numbers containing 8. It's a highly desired number".

It is no co-incidence the opening ceremony of the Beijing Olympics is 8/8/08 at 8pm. 88 literally means double wealth.

The 88 diamonds are set into the steel bezel surrounding the iPhone's screen. The price is £4148 ($8219).

Another De Vere iPhone design contains 28 diamonds. Costing £1700 ($3376), it translates into easy to get wealth or easy to get rich. A design containing 168 diamonds translates into want smooth wealth. This version is £7800 ($15493).

"At De Vere's of London we've looked at designing and creating diamond phones for some time". Said Philip De Vere. "We wanted to have the most elegant, glamorous and desired phones without being excessive.

"The Apple iPhone is already the most desirable phone on the market. We wanted to create the most desirable luxury phone on the market". Philip De Vere said.

"The black backed 3G iPhone came along at the right time. Its smooth, symmetrical and uncluttered shape was perfect. Inset this with diamonds and it's reminiscent of a Cartier Art Deco vanity case of the 1920s. Very chic and glamorous". Philip De Vere added.

De Vere's of London are the only designers and creators of diamond inset iPhones. The small diamonds are set into the steel bezel surrounding the screen. The black screen and black back of the 3G version emphasise the diamonds in their settings.

De Vere's of London set any number of diamonds into the iPhone bezel, from 25 to 425. There are numerous variations in pattern, layout and quantity of diamonds, including designs containing 18 and 21 diamonds to mark a coming of age. Any number can be inset to celebrate an anniversary, birthday or special event.

A stunning Transition design is also available. The diamonds fade from deep pink to white as they descend down the bezel.

The highest quality certified diamonds are used, in classic white, pink or black. Sapphires, rubies and emeralds can also be inset. All carried out by skilled jewellers.

Prices for De Vere diamond iPhones start from £1500 ($2979) rising to £15000 ($29790) for the top model with a fully covered bezel.

"You don't have to be Chinese or a millionaire to own a diamond iPhone". Said Philip De Vere. "We wanted to have a luxury iPhone that was affordable and had lasting value".

"Many people gasp at the price of a diamond iPhone". Philip De Vere said. "The iPhone is relatively inexpensive but the diamonds aren't. They have a real value in today's market. The value of our iPhones are in the diamonds. If the iPhone is changed or upgraded, the diamonds can be added to the new one or set into a beautiful piece of custom made jewellery. This way the diamonds will continue to bring pleasure. They remain the customer's; however they wish to display them".

The new rich of Russia, the Middle East and China are fuelling the luxury cellphone market. It is currently worth £700 million ($1.4 billion) a year and considered to have limitless growth.

"The market for luxury cellphones is bigger than people imagine". Said Philip De Vere. "The creation of a multi-billion dollar market is inevitable, driven by the new rich".

In Russia and the Middle East, high oil prices have seen the emerging super-rich seek the trappings of their new found wealth.

The Chinese luxury goods market is enjoying stratospheric growth of 20-30%. It is now officially classified as the fastest growing luxury market in the world, worth £4 billion ($8 billion) or 18% of the total global market.

Top of the rich wish-list is the latest cellphone and diamond jewellery. De Vere's of London combine both.
