Red Men and White $27.76 Red Men and White

The Red, White and Green (1901) $23.59 The Red, White and Green (1901)

Green and Red White and Blue, good

Green, and Red, White and Blue, Good
Green but Red, bad

For over 30 years, first quietly and slowly  and finally, loud and IN YOUR FACE, we know about Safe for the environment goods. Things that are recyclable, things that return to the ground, and THINGS THAT DON’T. Good recycles are applauded, bad ones are sometimes fined!

ON the surface, that seems logical and easy to follow.  It is NOT. Something critical is missing!

Buying a thing that is recyclable or that returns to mother earth IS NOT ENOUGH.

We need to buy those things made by democratic nations. Why? Stop laughing! Why does it matter
who makes something as long as it is environmentally friendly!? It matters a lot.

Prior to [in the last 50 years] 2008, Americans had “full employment,” a fairly safe place to live
and not too many people who wanted us “gone.”  We bought from any company, anywhere, that
was legal to buy from, PERIOD.

In time, however, our “full” employment began to disappear. While the term “full employment”
is an economics term, its consequences are common language terms. When we care
from whom we buy, we help assure ourselves of jobs for everyone who wants to work. When
we don’t care whom we buy from, our green maker jobs go to Communist and Socialist nations–whom we have fought in battle or whom we should fight now–nations who laugh at us while they sell us good. Nations that attack our computers, nations that grow Al Quedas members, nations that offer no freedoms for different members of their respective societies.

Remember Nike a few years ago? We got in an uproar when we heard that kids in unsafe shacks or manufacturing plants were getting sick or injured making our shoes. We demanded the importer of Nike Shoes stop those practices. Not sure if he did but we never heard about it again.

I assure you in mid 2009, today, we hear about our job losses. We should be hearing about them as OUT sourced goods being made in Socialist nations and in Communist nations are making our green goods and when they can, those nations will either con us in other ways, or attack us with human bombers or aerial bombers. Is this radical, unrealistic talk? No. The N. Koreans and Chinese attack our US defense computers every day of the week–seeking any weakness. Why would they care? Cause
they want to use our purchasing riches to arm themselves and attack our democracy.  Those are not random, insignificant actions. Our enemies are not inherantly rich; they can only attack us with our own money.

If we analyze where Democratic nations are that can make the goods we want to consume we can restrict our buying to European nations, many South American nations or we can do what we did before ww1 and ww11, we can act as “isolationists” and stop sending any jobs overseas!

Our federal government would immediately say “if we do that, some nations [China] who hold government bonds, will cash them in prematurely and harm our federal deposits.  Good. Let them and give them our newly printed dollars. Get rid of the obligation.

We residents of the USA cannot afford to seriously think that sending jobs overseas is any good for our economy. We had an unemployment rate of under 4% in 2007. Today, it is 5x that. We can return
to 4% if we stop OUT sourcing all jobs. We can if we stop buying anything from China.

We can if we return to “Made in America”!!!

Boxer Puppies - Will You Consider a White Boxer as a Pet?

A boxer puppy will grow up to be a medium sized dog, with a proportionate body. It is easy to care for a boxer, as it is a fairly active animal. All it needs is a brisk daily walk, and on occasions, a long walk will benefit both the owner and the pet. Grooming wise, it's an easy task because this breed has short hair. Use a hard bristle brush to comb the hair on a regular basis to remove loose hair.

A boxer is a quick and intelligent animal. It is very loyal, and can get along with almost anyone. A young puppy can be easily integrated into the family due to its natural sociable nature. It can even get along quite well with a cat. But don't tempt the dog with smaller animals like ducks or guinea pigs. A well trained dog can be told to leave these little animals alone. But you don't want to risk having your dog misbehaving by presenting the opportunities!

In fact, the boxer is good with human beings that you can trust them to be with young children. Trainers love to work with them as they are easy to get along. Some boxers are so sensitive and intelligent that they are trained to carry out police work such as search and rescue.

When buying a boxer puppy, most people refer to the official breed standards, set by the AFC (American Kennel Club). But bear in mind that these are just guidelines to help you choose a healthy pup. They are not concrete laws that you have to follow. If you treat them as concrete laws, you may end up making the wrong decision. Here's why.

The AFC standard states that a dog belongs to the boxer breed only if two thirds of its body color is not white. For this reason, many dog breeders find that they cannot register white boxers with the AFC. And this affects sales. Potential customers want to buy pups that are properly registered. They want the assurance from an authority that they are indeed paying for the right breed.

Unfortunately, many new pet owners, being inexperience, base their decisions solely on registrations. This results in many perfectly healthy white boxers being euthanize.

A white boxer gets its fur color due to genes inheritance. It is not an unhealthy animal, and it certainly is not an Albino. An Albino means a lack of pigment. You tell if a dog is an Albino just by looking at the color of the eyes. The white boxer is just like any other healthy boxer, except that most of its fur is white in color. It will still bear a small percentage of colored markings on various parts of its body such as the face.

However, the white boxer has a higher chance of becoming deaf after 6 to 8 weeks. This is caused by a lack of pigment cells in the inner ear. Without adequate sensory hairs, the hearing is affected. It is this lack of pigment cells that cause the coat of fur to be white as well.

Black Velvet $12.99 Black Velvet

Velvet $5.99 Another stunning historical romance from the author of Vixen. Clad in black velvet and posing as a widowed French comtesse, Gabrielle returns to England to ruin the man responsible for her young lover's death. But even becoming an agent for the secret service can't protect her--or her heart--from the devastating Nathaniel.

Black is Back for Autumn/Winter ‘09

If you’re addicted to the black in your wardrobe, check out the colouring types below to find out what is the most flattering way to wear it.

 

Lights

The lights have naturally blonde hair, fair skin and light blue, green or grey eyes. When light women are young (in their 20s) many will admire the contrast between the colour of their hair and black clothing but as they mature, black will look heavy and ageing and show up fine lines. If you are light and want to wear black go for black lace with a lighter shade of cream or pink showing through. This is a popular look and readily available this season. Alternatively, wear black in low necklines and soften the look with light jewellery or scarves.

 

Deeps

The deeps have dark brown eyes and dark brown or black hair. Black looks absolutely stunning on them so if you are a deep go for it. Either wear black from head to toe or team it with other deep or bold tones.

 

Warms

The warms are the red-heads. Their eyes may be blue, green, hazel or brown and their skin is usually fair, often with freckles. Black is not in their palette but if you are warm and going to wear black this season make sure you warm it up. This can be done by wearing warm tones with the black; colours such as camel, terracotta, and lime will work well. For evening, make sure your top or dress have a low neckline and add gold, copper and bronze tones in your jewellery.

 

Cools

The cools have ash tones to their hair – blonde, grey or white and their skin has pinky undertones. Their eyes may be blue, green, grey or clear brown. Black can be worn by the cools but should be avoided directly under the chin as this can cause shadows. Black in tweeds and denims are flattering and won’t be as harsh as solid black. Black velvet is a good option for evening as its soft texture absorbs the light. Again dresses should have low necklines and pearls make the perfect accessory.

 

Clears

The clears have dark hair, lighter skin and bright blue, green or topaz eyes. Black looks striking on the clears but as they have a lot of contrast in their own colouring, matt black from top to toe can be a little bland. Add vibrant or icy colours to the black to really inject the wow factor and balance the look. Fabrics with black and white patterns such as dogtooth have good contrast that will complement the clears’ colouring. If an outfit is all black, white gold, silver or platinum can add contrast.

 

Softs

The softs have dark blonde or light brown hair, eyes that are soft blue, brown, hazel or green and little contrast between hair, skin and eyes. Black is quite over-powering for the softs and medium depth colours work better. If you are soft and want to wear black, go for textured fabrics such as tweeds that soften the look of the black. Again, black lace over something soft will work well. If wearing plain black items such as a top, soften the look with a grey, stone or medium-depth coloured jacket, cardigan or scarf.

 

If you’re not sure how well black will work for you and would like plenty of other options why not invest in a personal colour analysis. A colour consultant will be able to show you which colours work perfectly with your own colouring and how to mix and match them easily.

Colour Your World - Part 2

The colour green has used for interior designs across the centuries. Green is available is a wide range of different hues and shades all offering a completely different look to a room.

Green is thought to be the colour which brings life and vitality; nature uses green in virtually every plant species across the world. One great advantage to using various shades of green is the ability to coordinate and tone it with a multitude of other colours.

Take a look at flowers and shrubs to see the natural colour combinations. Gerbera flowers in vibrant oranges, reds and yellows have deep dark green foliage which tone beautifully.

Red and green colour combinations inspired by holly and ivy or deep red roses with rich dark greens leaves look stunning when used together. The key factor is to have the two different colours within the same colour range; once you have mastered toning colours together the world of colour will take on a whole new dimension.

Yellow is considered to be the 'happy' colour. It reminds us of sunshine; from the merest hint of yellow to bright and vibrant daffodil colours, yellow is a warm colour that works well with many other colours including oranges, blues and greens.

A spring like appearance can rejuvenate a dull and tired looking room. White and yellow combinations offer a fresh clean look, ideal for using in any room. Subtle blends of yellow used as an accent colour in soft furnishings and window dressings provide a light and airy feel in a small room.

Yellow and white stripes or gingham fabrics used for cushions can provide an instant up-lift and a sunny style look to tired looking sofas and chairs. Coordinated with fabric which has a mass of tiny flowers or crisp clean white can offer a romantic and stylish look to bedrooms and bathrooms. The vibrancy of neon yellow teamed with black is very fashionable for contemporary interior designs for young people or those who dare to be different!

Purple was very fashionable in the 1970s; this regal colour is making a revival in the world of interior designs. As with other colours there are many hues and shades to choose from. The deepest rich purples look striking when used in conjunction with gold and silvers. These opulent colours are ideal for creating a sensuous bedroom. Plush purple velvet curtains swept back and held in place with beautiful beaded tie-backs, coordinated with luxurious bedding with sliver or gold embroidery and beautiful sequin work offer a truly majestic appearance when used in union with walls and paintwork of paler shades, such as lilacs or creams.

Whatever colour combinations you select a key factor is to be comfortable living with them. It is pointless using colours purely because they are fashionable if you really don't like them! It is possible to integrate colours to keep abreast of current and immerging interior design styles for those who like to keep up to date by using these them as an accent colour which can be swapped and changed easily as the trends change.

Askmen.com's Top 99 Women - a Large Variety of Women to be Found There, Lets Look Closer at Them Now.

AskMen.Com's Top 99 Women – 2008 contains a variety of women, from various professions, races and haircolors as well as eye colors.

Majority of women have brown eyes, and the dominant hair color this year amongst the top 99 women are blond or brown, as the most striking combination of hair and eye color is brown hair with brown eyes.

The top woman on the list of 99 most beautiful women in the world according to askmen.com, Katherine Heighl has blond hair with Brown eyes, and medium breasts size.

There is a slight overweight of brown haired women amongst the top 10 list of women, and the dominant color of the eyes amongst the top 10 are brown.

We want our readers to put the name no 100 on the list as well. Given that all these women were equal and trated as one of the 100 most beautiful women on the earth, which one would you like to add as your candidate no 100? Please write a comment to the article, with your proposal of candidate.

Remember one thing, these are famous persons, but you can add anyone to the list, the one you regard to be amongst the top 100 beauties in the world.

We have made some short statistics on this 99 most beautiful women list. The statistics can lie of course, and main source of error is hair color as many women of course color their hair, and therefore hide their natural color. Another source of error could be the breast size as some have natural, and others have transplants in them to make them bigger.

Of the list seen below we can see that around 64 percent of the women have brown eyes as the rest 36% has blue eyes. Any discoloring in shades of blue, grey, black, dark brown has not been taken into account.

38 percent of the women have blond or brown hair, and the rest 24 percent has black hair.br>

What is interesting is to see the combination of hair and eyes as well. We have found out that around 29 percent has brown hair and brown eyes. 24 percent has black hair combined with brown eyes. 21 percent has blond hair and blue eyes and 11 percent has blond hair with brown eyes. The rest of combinations states 9 percent brown hair with blue eyes and 6% with blond hair and blue eyes and finally 4 percent with black hair and blue eyes.

You can yourself do the statistics on the breast size and whether there is a combination of hair color, breast size or eye color and breast size that strikes out.

Equestrian Competition Clothing : Basic Components

Clothing for Equestrian competition is as much about functionality as it is for display. It is meant to be comfortable, practical and safe. Basic competition clothing for equestrian events involves the wearing of a suitable hat to protect the head; a jacket and waistcoat to provide body safety for the torso; and boots, breeches and jodhpurs to take care of the legs and feet. However, clothing can differ for different events. This can range from a tweed hacking jacket to a black, blue, green or red show jacket for showing, show jumping, dressage and eventing; or top hat and tails for dressage and top level eventing. The jackets you wear will also depend on the level you have reached for the sports event in which you intend to participate. Equestrian competition includes different events and demands different skills from the riders.

Hence competition clothing is also of various kinds suitable for each event.

Riding hat or Helmet

A riding hat or helmet is the most important part of competition clothing. It protects the rider when falling. A riding hat has a strong shield and a soft lining for absorbing shocks in falls. It is advised to wear the hat not only for riding but also for training the horse. Hats should be replaced at least every three or four years. This is because its capacity to safeguard the head it is worn upon reduces with use. Riding hats are of two kinds: Classic velvet hat with a hard peak, which is traditional and is available in different colours like brown, black or navy blue. Jockey cap with no peak, which is also known as a skull cap. This was first worn by jockeys in the sport of horse racing but is also becoming popular for leisure and equestrian competition.

Jackets

Riding jackets in equestrian competitions should be fitted and not restrict the free movement of the arms. As you would expect, different jackets are available for men and women riders. Most jackets have a vent at the back that helps it to lie smoothly at the back and sit neatly over the back of the saddle. Broadly, there are three different kinds of jackets: Hacking Jacket, which is a tweed style jacket in various colours navy, brown and green Hunting Jacket, which could also be a tweed style jacket or plain black or navy it could also be a red jacket meant for hunt masters. Show Jacket, which is a single-coloured jacket, often black or navy blue.

Trousers

Riding trousers should be close fitting around the lower leg with some protection or reinforcement around the inside knee. Riding trousers are of two kinds: Breeches that come down to half the calf which can be worn with long riding boots only Jodhpurs that end at the ankles and can be worn with short boots as well as long riding boots.

Gloves

As a part of competition clothing, a rider should own a good pair of original gloves as well as an everyday general pair of gloves: Original leather gloves are to be worn while riding for competition. Everyday general riding gloves are worn whilst hacking, schooling, training and yard duties they are usually made from cotton, crochet, artificial leather and breathable materials.

Riding boots

Riding boots in equestrian competition are of two types: Jodhpur boots with a lace or zip design at the front that cover the ankles and are comfortable. Long riding boots that cover the legs and which are in various styles available to suit all riding disciplines. Besides these, there are body protectors that are worn on top of the clothes. They are made from shock absorbing material. The BETA Level 3 standard is recommended so that you are able to compete in all competitions and in different levels. Body Protectors will help to reduce the impact in case of falling and if a horse kicks.

You should take proper care of your competition clothing, whether it is the daily wear or the one meant for the show. Your show attire should be clean, pressed and spotless. Your attire should adhere to the competition you intend to participate in. In the initial stage you need not get all the equestrian competition clothing, the riding hat, body protector and boots are the most important. However, later as you progress to be a experienced rider or competitor, you need to have access to all the required competition clothing. Clothing should always fit well and be comfortable.

It is vital to know about all the types of dress from the beginning, even if you can’t afford to buy it all at once, because each item is designed to bring you safety when you need it most. Since equestrian competition clothing is specially designed for both the safety and comfort of the rider, these clothes are a necessary expense when you start to take your riding seriously. However, for your daily chores and work in the yard you should still keep wearing your favourite hard-wearing and inexpensive clothing. You don’t have to look like you’re competing all the time!
