Cook a special cuisine for your beloved:Nothing can be better than cooking food for the person you are in love with. Aww come on, this is not something you can’t try, and in fact it is super fun. Cook something that your partner really craves for, and invite him over for a special lunch or dinner; imagine how romantic it would be. If for some reasons you guys have had strife, then give him or her surprise by preparing something that is lip smacking and dash down to his or her place.

Treasure stalk:This is another thing which may interest your beloved to fall in love with you again and this time massively, how?

It is in Giving that you shall receive:Many self help books talk about this fantastic phrase, which means, that the more you give out will be responsible for congruent things to come to you. Does that ring the bell?? The more you give out, which means the more you give love and express it, the more it will keep your relationship get stronger day by day.

Do not hide your feelings:This is a complete NO NO, for a happy relationship, if you are in love with someone express it, let them know how you feel.

Fashion and Style:Fashion has immensely impacted the style these days, what say? Fashion these days has become a very string reason of social change; it is something that is dealt by us on a daily basis. The kind of attire you wear, either is a replica of some style or creates one. Fashion can be considered as a wind which makes it a little difficult for the man to cope at times. The best part is that it does not restrict itself to the clothes, but also embraces the accessories, handbags and a lot of other stuff. Have you ever noticed, girls looking at your handbag and commenting “Wow, that’s really trendy.”, or if there is something that is not admired, is stated as old fashioned by people? So, the conclusion is, that fashion does impact the style, from the start of your day till the end; you are judged on this area as well, either knowingly or unknowingly.



Fashion and Comfort:Do you think that fashion can provide you comfort? Well, it sure does, ruminate how? Look at your clothes that you find really easy to get into, they make you feel at ease and relaxed, and not really bother you to think what other people will feel about them. That’s the comfort bit of fashion, and such attire is known as a comfortable one. People choose various outfits, some to impress others at certain occasions; those are known as trendy fashion stuff, and some for their own self, which is known as comfy fashion stuff, fashion is everywhere, and is something that is not going to leave your side at all.

‘Milkha Singh’- for some the name evokes a faint memory from the pages of history. All that is most remembered is that Milkha Singh, hailed as the Flying Sikh, was a famous athlete, who infamously lost the penultimate race of his Life. “The one who lost the 400 meters finals at the Rome Olympics” is an involuntary response when the name Milkha Singh is men-tioned.

The Film attempts to understand a catastrophic loss that was deemed a sure victory and explores through the darkness of disgrace; Milkha’s redemption,the redemption and catharsis that come when he confronts his past.

Milkha, ironically finds himself in a place wherein he had lost his all;Pakistan: a place where he witnessed the bloody massacre of his entire family. The demons hidden in some dark corner of his consciousness come alive.

This iridescent tale winds through the plagues of a bloody civil war, a lost childhood, home-lessness and petty crime to victories hard won and easily lost. It draws an intricate image of human trials, setbacks and fate leveraged against the sheer power of will. He evocatively illustrates that true victory lies in racing with one’s troubles and not in running away from them.

Milkha flies, falls and rises, bruising his soul but not his will to survive.

Milkha Singh the world champion in 400 meters lost the most important race of his life- the 1960 Rome Olympics but won in LIFE.

Bhaag Milkha Bhaag will see Milkha fly, fall and rise, bruise his soul but not his will to survive. Bhaag Milkha Bhaag releases worldwide on 12th July 2013

difficult to navigate when you’re sitting so far away from the text. Google knows this and has released YouTube Remote.Install it, pair it with whatever PC you’re

However, you can also see where and what your friends are drinking and then go stalk them, or see who’s drinking what nearby, so that you can awkwardly approach strangers and attempt a conversation over your common interest in cherry lambics.

Do’s &Don’ts In OnlineShopping

Online shopping is something that is very common these days, not every person has the time to visit to numerous markets, as the work schedule and in fact the busy life style keeps people really busy and hence they are left with almost no time for shopping. There are many websites these days which provide great deals on some of the astounding stuff which is available for the sale online.

Here are some safe online shopping tips which can make your online shopping experience relish able:

Use sites that are familiar to you. You’re safer if you stick to sites you know. If you’re not familiar with a site, make sure that the site has a privacy policy and information about the site’s security measures.

Know if the site is secure. There are two quick and easy things to look for when shopping a site. First, does the URL start with HTTPS (instead of HTTP)? And second, is there a “lock” icon on the status bar that shows that you are on a secured website?

Pay with credit. When it comes time to pay for that new gadget/shirt/toy, use credit instead of debit. Many credit cards offer fraud protection that debit doesn’t. A disposable card or gift card is even better, because the funds are limited to a specific

amount.

Be the master of your own information. Storing your information on a trusted site sure does make things easier when you come back to buy again. If you read the news, however, you’ll see that even secure sites can occasionally fall prey to hackers. Also, there’s no need for a shopping site to know your birthday, your ID number, etc. That information, along with your credit card number, is ID-heaven to a thief. Keep your personal information, well, personal.

Don’t Believe Everything You Read. Cyber-criminals may try to lure you to their site by offering fantastic deals or unbelievably great prices. “If it seems too good to be true, it probably is a fake site or some type of scam,”. It advices is to stick with well-

known companies, or research a lesser-known site through google or other search engines.Use a super strong password. If your shopping

password is 1234, you’re vulnerable to being hacked. Use a phrase with numbers and special characters. For example, “Ireadthedenblog2” is a strong password.

Shop at home. Don’t use public computers to enter personal information.

Check your statements. It’s a good idea to do this monthly. Make sure the charges on your credit cards went to pay for things that you got to enjoy — not someone else.

Don’t Reload Confirmation Pages That Fail to Load. A site may accidentally charge you multiple times if you keep trying to reload a confirmation page. Instead, contact the retailer directly to make sure your order went through. You can also check your credit card statement to confirm a charge was posted.

Do Download an Anti-Phishing ToolbarThese are tools that track down fraudulent sites and alert you if you visit one that appears to be asking for information under false pretenses. Many are free; try Netcraft or MyWOT.

com for protection.

Read Independent Reviews. Word of mouth is always the best way of finding out what a retailer is really about. While many sites host reviews on their sites, in some cases these reviews could be biased or even fake.

Holiday shopping time is upon us. Shop smart and shop safe online!
