Will Mary kay work in india ?

I don’t see why it wouldn’t. In some countries, women are allowed to work but if a man wants her job, the woman relinquishes her position to the man. However, the only job that a man will not take from a woman in some countries is if she works in a beauty salon. […]

I don’t see why it wouldn’t. In some countries, women are allowed to work but if a man wants her job, the woman relinquishes her position to the man. However, the only job that a man will not take from a woman in some countries is if she works in a beauty salon.

If India has a custom similar to the above, then Mary Kay will succeed in many women’s lives. Mary Kay has been the #1 best selling cosmetic for over 13 years. Every line in Mary Kay is treated very highly and therefore it is tested time and again to ensure safety and the highest quality long before it ever reaches the consultants and the market. Outside of the product being tested and proven for results, the packaging also must be of high quality before the product is introduced.

Wow, rude answers much? Jeeez some people are freakin pissyyy today.
I procrastinate too, but I’m working on it :) What I do is I *try* to devote time for my homework and stuff. Like, i get home at 3:00 and I try to start my homework at like 3:30. That way i get it done and I have the rest of the day to do whatever. Its really, really hard because there are a million other things I would rather do than homework, I’m sure you feel the same.
When you do it try to work somewhere that has no distractions. No t.v. on or whatever, that way you can concentrate on doing it right :) Also, my school has study hall so I try to get as much work as I can in there. I don’t know if your school has that but if they do use it to your own advantage.

You’ll feel SO MUCH better if you get your homework done early. Its nice not having to worry about it later in the day. I like doing it early cause I get soo stressed out when I keep thinking ugh I have so much work to do, and I hate that feeling when you’re doing homework at night and you’re tired and stuff. It sucks and it makes me in a hella pissy mood. I’m starting to get used to doing homework when I get home. But idk if you do like a sport or something cause that’ll make getting stuff done harder but just try to set a time to get it done.

Hope I helped.

p.s. i know it’s SO hard not to procrastinate but keep trying, good luck :)



Who makes the Titleist balls Walmart Sales?

Titleist (parent company Acuschnet) makes specific merchandise for retailers like Wal-Mart. Wal-Mart wants the Titleist name in their stores, but Titleist has refused to allow Wal-Mart (along with Costco and big-box retailers of similar frame) to undersell their product since their ‘core’ business is dealing with specialty golf shops, pro shops, and the pros.

In effect, Titleist product (same with Ping) is minimum priced across all retailers; otherwise you’d have Wal-Mart trying to undercut pro shops and specialty golf retailers on Pro V1’s, and therefore, potentially hurting their other sales.

A compromise is that Titleist makes a model not found in golf shops. The balls are geared toward a novice player (i.e. high handicapper); if you’re a 25-handicapper, they’re great, but for a mid/low/scratch player…they’re junk and not workable. Basically, Titleist gets their name in Wal-Mart, Wal-Mart can claim to sell Titleist, and Titleist protects their real customers while appeasing a mass retailer.

Remember…you get what you pay for.



Does the fact that I oppose the use of nuclear weapons make me weak or unpatriotic?

No one is in favor of the use of nuclear weapons. They were only used once, and reluctantly at that. I don’t get the impression that you are un-American so I don’t know what provoked your classmate’s comment. It is possible however, that he knew more about the subject than you do, […]

It is possible however, that he knew more about the subject than you do, and thought you were just being obtuse. If your history teacher did not have time to go into details, it was a matter of many smaller bombs or the two big ones. He probably didn’t tell you that the daily loss of life from conducting an unchecked war in the Pacific was staggering, and the Japanese leadership had ample warning, and refused to end the war they began even after that first bomb.

That said, you probably had the correct gut reaction. How could you not feel how horrible it is to use nuclear weapons? It is only when you have all the facts and closely examine the moral equation that I would hope you would see the world is full of choices between two evils, and that in this instance, it was a horrible choice the Japanese forced on us and their own people, surely a crime against humanity.



Leeds UTD and the fifteen points?

They can challenge it but i believe it will cause a big stink with the other clubs if they get the points back and i honestly don`t think they will. What a lot of Leeds fans don`t understand (or don`t want to) is why they were docked 10 points at the end of the `06 season […]

What a lot of Leeds fans don`t understand (or don`t want to) is why they were docked 10 points at the end of the `06 season and then another 15 at the start of this one.
The 10 points is the standard punishment according to the rules for any club that goes into receivership. But Bates thought he was clever by selling the club to an overseas consortium (that he has his fingers dipped in anyway!) and buying it back cheap and renaming the club. So now called Leeds 2007 or something similar, they wanted to rejoin the league but here`s what they got docked another 15 points for- they hadn`t entered into a CVA and arranged to pay off their debts and that was also against the rules.
You may already know all this but it doesn`t seem to me that any Leeds fans on here do.
Now i don`t think that it would have been fair to the rest of the teams in that league to have to play side by side with a club who had not done things the way all the other 41 clubs who have gone into receivership have done. It`s tough but the fans should be blaming bent Bates and not the rest of League 1 or the FA, in my opinion.
There were other parties who were interested in buying the club but Bates wouldn`t let them look at the clubs financial records so any backers would never put up the money under those circumstances would they?
It is all very very fishy.



how do you tie up layered hair with a layerd fringe and make it look good??ps: i have a chubby face.?

Ohhh! This is a tough one that I’ve dealt with and with which I’m dealing with now. One good approach to getting a polished ponytail is by drying your hair with a round brush and flipping the ends (including the ends of the layers) under or up (as long as its fairly uniform) and then smoothing […]

Ohhh! This is a tough one that I’ve dealt with and with which I’m dealing with now.
One good approach to getting a polished ponytail is by drying your hair with a round brush and flipping the ends (including the ends of the layers) under or up (as long as its fairly uniform) and then smoothing it all back into a pony. You can also do this with a curling iron, of course. After smoothing all of the hair into a pony that hits squarely in the back of your head or maybe a little higher, you will have a polished, elegant ponytail that swirls together and ends in a little flip that you can make flip up or down in on itself toward your head. Don’t let any bits flip up at the top of the crest of the pony (it kills the polished look). While your hair is still warm, smooth the rebels down with your brush and spray and maybe smooth down with your hand, holding it there for a second to lock them in place.
Leave your bangs down, use the blowdryer and a round brush on them smoothing them all to one slide or split mainly to one side or the other.
Hope you have fun!
P.S. Always dry your hair completely and use your dryer on the cold setting for the last few minutes and concentrate on your roots when cool drying at the end. If you don’t, the heat absorbed by your scalp in the drying process will escape and slowing frizz the living you know what out of your hair, especially at the scalp where it will be most obvious.



Trance music ?

Based on your Thrillseekers song im going to suggest: Gabriel & Dresden- Tracking Treasure Down Above & Beyond- Cant Sleep Agnelli & Nelson- Holding onto Nothing Dogzilla- Without You Kosheen- Hide You Motorcycle- As The Rush Comes Thrillseekers- Waiting Here For You Supermodels From Paris- Keep On DT8 Project- The Power of One There is quite a bit of this sort of trance about at […]

Based on your Thrillseekers song im going to suggest:

Gabriel & Dresden- Tracking Treasure Down
Above & Beyond- Cant Sleep
Agnelli & Nelson- Holding onto Nothing
Dogzilla- Without You
Kosheen- Hide You
Motorcycle- As The Rush Comes
Thrillseekers- Waiting Here For You
Supermodels From Paris- Keep On
DT8 Project- The Power of One

There is quite a bit of this sort of trance about at the moment so if you buy any non-commercial album like Nightmusic, Anjunabeats you will probs find quite a bit you will like.

I Guess you would call this sort of stuff Progressive House, Deep House, Progerssive Trance, Deep Trance although im not 100% sure of that.

Look at the Anjunabeats Deeper stuff on iTunes, that should be right up your street!!!

Oh yeah, whatever you do, dont get the Alice Deejay stuff the other person recomened, its all v. cheesy, v.samey commercial trance that did a good job at destroying trances reputation. Only download Better Off Alone if you want as this was the only goodish single from her but is nothing like what i think you are after so i would say steer well clear of it!

How the Black Death or the Bubonic Plague spread throughout Europe?

The deadly disease has been with man and part of world and medieval history for a very long time.
It has claimed nearly 200 MILLION lives.
The disease initially followed Caravan routes and then, with aid of European Shipping and the accompanying rats, by 1346 arrived in the Crimea.
The spread of the disease had started throughout the known world.
Within 12 months the spread of the Black Death (Bubonic Plague) had devastated Constantinople.
The illness moved to Alexandria in the Autumn of 1347 and within 6 months of the initial outbreak 1000 people were dying every day in that city alone.
Two months later the toll in Cairo was exceeding 7500 people who were dying every day.
Obviously, with such high mortality rates it was not uncommon for a whole town, or city, to become depopulated.
Such rates explain how the population of the World fell to such low levels.
The relatively few survivors, quite naturally attempted to flee whenever the deadly virus spread to their area.
But the survivors took the Black Death / Bubonic Plague with them and thus the disease spread even further by both land and sea.
Even small islands , like Sicily, were also contaminated by the spread of the disease.
By the end of 1346 the spread of the illness had reached mainland Europe.
The Eastern part of Europe was not hit until the following year and Russia did not succumb to the deadly spread until 1351.
For the next 60 years the virus devastated all of Europe.
The spread of the illness followed every one of the many new Trade Routes which had been opened due to outbreaks of the disease polluting the existing routes.
These Trade Routes ensured the spread of the Black Death / Bubonic Plague throughout the world.
There was no hiding place.



Beating a bucks nose?

A lot of the scent killer sprays you see on the hunting shows are gimmicks….They work to a degree, but if you smoke, use a scented deodorant, or shampoo, or even dress in camo’s washed in regular detergent you are going to be scented by Deer.You have to realize that these products came out in […]

A lot of the scent killer sprays you see on the hunting shows are gimmicks….They work to a degree, but if you smoke, use a scented deodorant, or shampoo, or even dress in camo’s washed in regular detergent you are going to be scented by Deer.You have to realize that these products came out in the last few years, yet Hunters have been successful literally for decades without the use of scent elimination sprays. The shake on powdered carbon is an even bigger joke. Not only does it not work, it makes one heck of a mess on your clothes and skin that’s not easy to get off. I think the best answer is a good “cover” scent put on your boots to mask human odor going into your hunting area…and some more hanging from a cotton ball on a string hung about 4 ft off the ground for the wind/breeze to pick up and carry the direction it’s blowing.I also wash my hunting clothes in scentless Borax laundry soap, air dry them outside, then pack them in a large zip loc bag until I get out to the woods where I change just before the hunt.
As a Gun Shop Owner and Archery/Bowhunter , I get free samples all of the time of these different products to try. I have yet to find ONE that I feel actually worked after watching several Deer to see exactly how they re-act up close. There were 2 occasions last year when I got picked up by 2 Bucks downwind at over 80 yards WITH scent elimination spray..

i understand where your daughter is coming from….i speak ilongo fluently because i spent my childhood in bacolod (my dad is from manila but learned how to speak ilongo fluently) . when my family moved to the states, we spoke ilongo at home. as i grew up i learned to sing in tagalog and even read in tagalog because of family friends who spoke tagalog that would come over. as hard as i tried, i couldn’t hold a conversation in tagalog. my syllables and words were jumbled and i was made fun of alot and i also got both ilongo and tagalog words mixed up. it’s so easy to learn a song because all i have to do is memorize it. reading in tagalog is also a breeze but to this day, as an adult, i still can’t hold a conversation in tagalog although i understand most of it. a lot of filipinos i come across, especially those older ones who just moved here from the philippines, frown upon the fact that i can’t speak tagalog even when i treat them with respect.

i suggest you still keep watching all the filipino shows with your daughter and always converse with her in tagalog. even when she responds in english, just be patient and continue on with it. maybe one day, she’ll catch on to it.
