Lowongan Kerja - "Jadi saat dia pulang ke Jakarta, Arumi berusaha untuk menghindar. Soalnya kan pas di Singapura dia dibantu Miller, kalau di Jakarta dia bingung. Dia pun mencari jalan, dan kira-kira jam 8 malam Arumi menyuruh si lelaki itu membeli sesuatu. Nah, begitu si lelaki itu pergi, Arumi mencoba untuk kabur diam-diam dan pergi ke KPAI," ujar ketua KPAI, Hadi Supeno saat dihubungi wartawan, Kamis (18/11) malam.

Sampai saat ini, Arumi pun berada di bawah lindungan KPAI. Hadi mengakui jika Arumi berada di tempat yang dirahasiakannya. Ini untuk mencegah agar kasus ini tidak melebar dan semakin ruwet.

"KPAI memberikan perlindungan dan membawa ke tempat rahasia. Saat kabur aja dia menyamar pakai jaket, kacamata hitam karena takut. Dia diikuti terus sama teman-teman pria itu," ujar Hadi.

"Kondisi Arumi kasihan sekali, sambil nangis. Dengan keadaan tertekan sekali. Saat ini Arumi berada di tempat yang dirahasiakan di Jakarta," tambahnya.

Tapi sebenarnya ada cara yang tak perlu membuat Anda menderita dengan melakukan diet ketat. Cukup gunakan tips berikut ini dan Anda akan dapat mengurangi beberapa kilo dari berat badan. - Job Indonesia

1. Nikmati Sarapan Pagi. Lakukan sarapan sepagi mungkin setelah Anda bangun dan dengan cara ini selera makan atau keinginan ngemil akan berkurang sepanjang hari. Rutin sarapan tepat pukul 07.30 pagi setiap hari dapat menurunkan sekitar 100 kalori dalam beberapa hari. Saat Anda bangun dan beberapa jam kemudian sarapan, cara ini akan meninggalkan rasa kenyang yang awet. - Job Vacancy

2. Menu Berprotein di Pagi Hari. Kalau biasanya Anda menghabiskan beberapa mangkuk sereal di pagi hari, pikirkan cara ini: makanan kaya protein memiliki daya bunuh rasa lapar saat kita menyantapnya di waktu sarapan. Protein merupakan nutrisi terbaik untuk membuat kenyang. Dan saat Anda sarapan makanan kaya protein di pagi hari, sepanjang hari rasa kenyangnya akan bertahan. Makanan kaya protein antara lain terdapat pada: telur, daging ayam, susu, tahu dan kacang-kacangan.

3. Makan Siang Dengan Seafood. Protein berkemampuan mencegah rasa lapar lebih dari nutrisi lainnya, sedang ikan berkemampuan mengurangi rasa lapar setelah protein. Orang-orang yang makan siang dengan menu seafood, 11% mengurangi makan malamnya. Para peneliti menduga kandungan amino acid di dalam ikan meningkatkan kekuatan hormon penghenti selera makan yang disebut leptin. Jadi santap lah seafood yang rendah lemak di saat makan siang.

4. Ganti Dengan Teh. Penggemar teh yang minum empat cangkir teh hitam setiap hari, diketahui mengalami penurunan hormon pemicu stres yang bernama corisol 20%. Teh dapat membantu membakar kalori sebanyak 266 kalori per hari.

5. Kunyah Sebanyak 15 Kali. Mengunyah lebih lama bisa jadi strategi untuk memperlambat proses makan, dengan cara ini memberi kesempatan pada otak untuk merasakan kenikmatan, sehingga secara otomatis kita dapat mengurangi 10% kalori dari yang kita makan.

How To Stick To The Budget

Author: George Battles

Job Vacancy - Being assigned to do the grocery is nerve-wracking. It is not easy. Sure it is easy to pick up the foods you want but it is hard if you are on a budget. You will need a grocery list organizer to help you out. It will keep you informed as to what items you still have in your kitchen and your home. - Indonesia Job

Sticking to the budget is hard especially if the given budget is not as big as you expect it to be. Times like this, you need to cut back on your spending. That is why you need to have a budget. If you are unaware as to how much you'll spend, you'll end up spending too much. Stick to a limit and be sure your budget is reasonable. Try to come up with a limit that is enough to buy foods to sustain you for 2 weeks.

A good money saver tip is to cut back on your meat consumption. Meat is priced a bit higher compared to vegetables. Try to make some dishes wherein meat is not the main ingredient. You could cook something Italian with less or no meat at all. Vegetables are good alternatives for meat. There's also gluten if you want.
Sale items are good deals. If you have some coupons, you can use it and you can even have discounts. If the item is on sale, you might want to buy in bulks. Only buy in bulks if you usually use it. Buy a dozen of the sale item. Also, you might want to do the grocery when your kids are in school. If you bring your kids along in the store, they will pester you until they get the junks that they want. They'll also pick up the foods which they want to eat at home. - Lowongan Kerja

Household Budgeting With a Scalpel

Author: Judy Juricek


Indonesia Job - Long before the current downturn in the economy, I was a frugal person who enjoyed doing household budgeting. I used coupons, drove as little as possible to save money on gas (even when gas was inexpensive), and took my lunch to work. Even being a frugal person, I found myself buying a lot more stuff than I needed, though. When I looked around our house which is large for two people, I saw a lot of things that were simply collecting dust that we didn't use. At that moment, I realized that my husband and I could do a lot better at saving money. After this realization, we got to work using a scalpel to carve out more savings and less spending and this is what we did to save on our monthly budget. - Job Vacancy.

First, we wrote down every bill that we had for the month and asked ourselves if we really needed to spend money on this item or service. We also spent time that month writing down every small purchase that we made in a notebook to chart just how much money was being spent in small increments for items like coffee, newspapers, or lunch. We reviewed the list and found lots of items or services that we could live without.

Cable television - We decided that we didn't watch enough television to justify spending $75 per month for cable television. Instead, we use an inexpensive service that delivers videos via the mail service two or three at a time. We get our news and weather from the internet and received most of the series that we liked on CD.

Cell phone - We were paying approximately $90 for 700 minutes from a well known cell phone service provider. I found a much lower cost and better plan provider from a pay-as-you-go service that uses a network from a large, well-known provider. We now have unlimited minutes and internet access for $15 less per month. We are saving money, getting more services, and we aren't locked into a contract.

Carpooling - My husband and I worked fifteen minutes away from each other. We bit the bullet and decided that the extra 30 minutes of commute time per day was worth it to save money on gas and car maintenance. An added benefit was having someone to converse with on the trip instead of simply listening to the radio.
Eating out at restaurants - We used to eat in a restaurant where the bill averaged between $25 and $40 once or twice a week. While we enjoyed this practice, we realized that we were spending an extra $1800 per year (average $35 x 2 x 52). We limited ourselves to eating out once per month which did save a lot and reduced our waistlines as well.

Buying in bulk - Being a frugal person, I was never very good at buying in bulk because I simply didn't want to spend that much money on groceries (which is probably why we spent so much money eating out!). I realized that I was costing us money by not stocking up on sale items that we really use. I bought a membership to a wholesale club and go once a month. While I spend a lot in one shop, I also save money because I am buying things usually on sale in large quantities. I also save time because I only have to go to the conventional grocery store for items that go out of date like bread, eggs, and salad. We also now
make a concerted effort to eat all of the food that I fix which also saves money and reduces the waste from our home.

Using coupons wisely - I was the worlds worst about using a coupon to get something at a very low cost or free but that we would not use. So, I stopped doing that because I realized that I wasn't really saving money, I was just cluttering up the house.

Limited my shopping - For many years, I have been a thrift store shopper. This is a great way of buying great clothes at inexpensive prices for the entire family. It becomes a problem, though, when you buy a lot of clothes that you don't need. I found that I was going twice or three times per month to my favorite thrift store spending between $30 and $50. I realized that I while I enjoyed shopping; I really didn't NEED all of those clothes. I now limit myself to a thrift store trip once per month and my spending limit is $20. I have less clutter in my closet and we save money.

Revisit our Vacation - We used to take a pretty lavish vacation for ten days per year. We would fly somewhere, rent a car, and stay in a nice hotel (not extravagant but nice nevertheless). We would also treat ourselves to nights out and dinner plus drinks. All of that added up fast! Now, we drive to the beach that is about four hours from our home, stay in a nice but moderately priced condo, and eat in. In fact, cooking on vacation is much less expensive and I have control over how the food is cooked. We also save money by taking in all of the free things that are available (museums, parks, the beach). We still have a wonderful time but have cut the cost of our vacation by about 50 percent.

After a few months of whittling down our budget, we save about $400 per month or $3600 per year which has given us much more financial freedom and peace of mind but we haven't missed anything that we cut out. If you are struggling to save money, I would recommend using a virtual scalpel to cut your budget as well. You can cut out unneeded purchases and watch your savings account grow!

Budgets and Business Building

Author: Robert Wayne Harris

Job Vacancy - A budget is critical to building a business. Business owners will tell you that bankers and lenders need a budget. Bankers insist on it, investors want it and business partners won't back the new business owner without it. - Job Indonesia

It makes perfectly good sense since the operation of a start-up business has no track record to draw from to show performance or profit. The risks involved are enormous and the statistics for failure is high. Over 80% of all businesses fail in the first 5 years. Those statistics scare most investors away and bankers carefully examine these risks.

The mistake new business owners most often make is failing to plan for failure or slow months when little or no money is available to pay their bills. This results in financial trouble almost before they complete their first year. Depending on their chosen business venture and their start-up time, a retailer for example will rely heavily on Christmas and other celebratory times of the year to move a substantial amount of inventory. When sales drop, the financial fallout can close the business down if not properly funded.

Proper budgeting and funding is relied upon in these instances to carry the business through. This is why banks and financial partners are careful in financing new businesses and especially new inexperienced business owners. The failure rate is high and no one wants to be burdened with a failed business and accompanying expenses.

Proper funding and budgeting is mandatory to the success of any business...especially when your inexperienced. Proper funding minimizes your worries and maximizes your potential for success. - Lowongan Kerja

Some Effective Tips About How To Save Money

Author: Steve Loanesco

Indonesia Job - Saving money is not just about finding a bargain and paying less for an item. This "saving" will only help you if you then set aside the money you "saved" and keep it till later. Saving money is to be able to put money away, ideally where you cannot access it easily, so that it's there to be used at a later time. - Job Vacancy

A study by economists found that income did not relate into volume of savings on retirement, and that low income earners were frequently able to have better savings on retirement than middle income earners. The study came to the conclusion that "persons with minimal savings on the eve of retirement have simply preferred to save less and spend more over their lifetimes.

Saving money is a decision; you choose to spend less than you earn and save the difference. Earning money is only half of the equation; we should find out how to control the money we earn and realize that not all money earned is for instant spending.

The first decision you must make is to save some of your earnings. To work out how much you can save, you first need to take the time to work out what your monthly bills total, how much is needed for the regular repeat costs like mortgage, utilities, insurances, vehicle costs etc. Work out a monthly cost by dividing the annual amount by twelve.

When you have a total monthly expenditure, compare it against your regular monthly earnings. If you are like the majority of people who do this exercise, you will now have to look for ways to reduce your expenditure to bring it in below your earnings. Consider things like credit cards, entertainment, eating out, fast food, vehicle expenses and clothing

Unless you take the time to explore the best ways to save money now, you will have to face the consequences of over-spending at some time down the track. Bite the bullet now and put yourself in a better financial position for the rest of your life. - Lowongan Kerja

Ways to Save Money on a Tight Budget

Author: Lyn Bell

Job Vacancy - When your budget is stretched you need to take control of your spending. Here are some ways to save money on a tight budget. Remember that the important thing is not how much you earn but how much you save and how you spend. - Indonesia Job
Going to the supermarket can be irresistible for unplanned spending. It is one of the major places to use more money than you intend. Be conscious about this fact and make yourself some simple rules.
  • Start by allocating a set sum for groceries every month in your budget.
  • Shop for groceries only once a week and do not be tempted to pop in every day. You'll invariably end up with more than the carton of milk you dropped in for.
  • Plan your shopping by taking a list of the items you need. Make a note of the usual price of the items and add these up to indicate how much you will be spending.
  • Only shop when you have eaten and not when you are hungry. If you are hungry you will end up with more food in your trolley than you need.
  • Scour the specials and cut out coupons. Make you list using the weekly special publication.
  • Take cash to cover your bill rather than placing it on the credit card.
Develop a checklist to make sure your effort to cut costs on your bills is actually working.
Power Bill
  • Electricity bills can be lowered by simple things such as switching off appliances that are not in use.
  • Check other providers to see if you can get a better rate for the use of your power.
  • Switch off lights in rooms you are not using.
  • Use energy-saving light bulbs.
  • Insulating your home may be an expense at the start but will have an ongoing benefit of decreased electricity bills and providing a warm home.
Phone Bill
  • Using the internet for online chats and sending emails helps you to stay in touch without having huge bills to talk on the phone.
  • Use Skype to call friends who are also on the internet for free. You can also pay for calls to landlines at inexpensive rates.
  • Ask your telephone provider if they have special deals that will cut the cost of calls.
Water Bill
  • Even if you don't pay for water usage this applies. Attend to any dripping tap as this is a waste of water.
You may think of many more ideas but these are some of the ways you can save money on a tight budget. - Lowongan Kerja

Ineffective Assistance of Counsel and Immigration

By: Damon Chetson

Job Vacancy - What happens when a criminal lawyer does not fully inform his client of the immigration consequences of a conviction? That lawyer has committed the sin of ineffective assistance of counsel - Job Indonesia.

The Supreme Court held recently in Padilla v. Kentucky that a criminal lawyer must give accurate advice regarding the potential consequences of an immigration conviction. Jose Padilla had spent 40 years in the United States. Although he never gained citizenship, he was a lawful "permanent resident." In fact, he was even a Vietnam vet. He was charged (and later pled guilty) to trafficking marijuana.

His lawyer, at the time of his plea negotiations, had informed Padilla that because he had lived so long in the United States, he did not need to worry about the immigration consequences of his conviction.

However, because marijuana trafficking is an "aggravated felony" under United States law, his guilty plea meant that Padilla was deportable under federal immigration law.

Padilla appealed his conviction, and the Supreme Court found by a 7-2 decision that, in fact, his lawyer's advice that he had nothing to worry about regarding immigration was "ineffective assistance of counsel".

If any attorney is counseling a client regarding a criminal matter, that attorney should first determine whether the client is a citizen or not.  The attorney should then determine whether the crime with which the person has been charged is a deportable offense.  Even if the offense is not a deportable offense, the attorney should advise the person that laws may change and that by pleading guilty to the crime, the person may in fact be deported upon conviction.

DUI Penalties - A Survey Of The Variances

Author: Wayne A. Campbell


Indonesia Job - Although every jurisdiction in North America views alcohol related driving charges as serious, there is definitely no consensus on the best way to punish those who drink and drive. In a survey of States and Provinces, it was found that there were large differences in minimum fines, license suspensions, jail time and other consequences - Job Vacancy.

In Canada, the offense of Impaired Driving is a federal offense and comes under the Canadian Criminal Code. There is a standard penalty across Canada if charged criminally with an alcohol/driving related offense. On a first offense, the minimum fine is $1,000.00 and a one year license suspension. Jail time is possible and an option for Judges in sentencing for more serious cases.
The maximum legal blood alcohol content is 0.08% in Canada. However, Provinces are free to institute their own regulations in regard to alcohol and driving on provincial roads. Some provinces such as British Columbia and Nova Scotia have penalties that are immediate such as roadside driver's license suspensions for drivers who are found to have a BAC according to a breath testing machine that are lower than the Criminal legal limit. However, a driver charged under these Provincial regulations are not charged criminally. Although some of these penalties can be severe, if a driver is only charged under a Provincial regulation, they will not have a criminal record.
In the US however, individual States have the authority to legislate laws regarding impaired driving and blood alcohol concentration levels. Each State has its own penalties and sentences that are legislated by the State. Even though all States in the US today have a standard maximum blood alcohol concentration of 0.08%, this has not always been the case. Until recently, there was even a variance in the legal blood alcohol concentration limit among States.
In a survey of penalties for drinking and driving offenses, it was found that there is a huge variance in how many States mete out punishment for those offenses. Some such as Michigan have a fine for a first offence of only $100.00 while other States like Washington have a minimum fine of $1,120.50.
Jail sentences for a first offence also vary greatly. In Pennsylvania, no jail time is legislated if your BAC was between 0.08% AND 0.099%, but in Washington State, you will spend 24 hours in Jail and up to 1 year. A period of electronic home monitoring in Washington is also a possibility.
Some States have varying penalties that depend on your BAC when you were arrested. In Michigan, having a BAC of greater than 0.17% is now considered a "Super DUI" and carries increased penalties upon conviction.
As well, there are places in the United States where an impaired driver faces greater penalties if they were driving with a passenger under a certain age. In some States, this age is 21, while others have legislated more severe penalties for transporting a minor under 16 years old.

Tips on What to Do When Pulled Over for DWI

By: Jeff Raleigh

Job Vacancy - Out of all the errors a person can make behind the wheel of a motor vehicle, driving while intoxicated often is one of the worst lapses in judgment. It can be a costly and humiliating experience, one that often is made worse because drivers don't know their rights when they have been stopped for an officer for DWI.
Typically, a DWI stop starts with the officer asking you for your license and registration; that much you have to provide. But when he starts asking you questions, you're under no obligation to answer - if you choose not to speak at all because you're afraid it might often some indication that you've drunk, then it's your right not to say a word - Indonesia Job
Often, if an officer thinks you've been drinking, he may ask you to perform field sobriety tests. Again, in most states you have the right to refuse such tests, which often are subjective, offering an officer the opportunity to make a judgment call that you've been drinking. Again, don't do anything that offers any potentially self-incriminating evidence.
At some point, the officer is going to want you to take a Breathalyzer or blood test, and you're darned if you do, darned if you don't in this regard. All US States have implied consents laws, which basically state that if you have a driver's license, you must comply with a request for such tests if an officer deems one necessary. And if you don;t take the test when asked, you still face the possibility of a fine, suspended license, even jail time. In some instances, you're may be a little better off declining the test, but most of the time, agree to have it done.
So take the test, and one of tow things will happen: Either you'll be found to not be drunk, or you will be found to be intoxicated and arrested for DWI. Even that, though, doesn't necessarily mean a conviction - the equipment used to check your level of intoxication varies in its accuracy, and can often be challenged in court. Or perhaps the officer made a procedural error, which could lead to your case being throw out.
How will you know if such errors have been made? Most of the time you won't, and in the case of a DWI, the old adage "Only a fool acts as his own attorney" has never been truer. if you face a court date for DWI, don't waste time trying to represent yourself - go find yourself a criminal defense attorney. Don't take the first one you see in the Yellow Pages; look around a bit, ask others who they can recommend. There are huge differences in the competence of attorneys, and you'll want the best one you can afford representing you in a court of law.
And one last point: If you've been stopped for DWI, hopefully you've learned something, whether you're convicted or not, something that should have been obvious - drinking and driving don't mix.

Tips Bekerja Menjadi Penyiar Radio & Televisi

Author: AYM ( Abi Yusuf Mardhiono )


Job Vacancy, Indonesia Job



Seiring dengan maraknya perkembangan dunia penyiaran baik radio maupun televisi di Indonesia saat ini, tidak bisa dipungkiri lagi bahwa dari industri inilah terbukanya kesempatan bagi mereka untuk bisa ikut berkecimpung dalam dunia penyiaran atau yang lebih sering disebut sebagai broadcasting. Hampir disetiap daerah atau provinsi sudah memiliki beberapa stasiun radio dan Televisi lokal, oleh karena itulah peluang untuk bekerja dalam bidang broadcasting khususnya menjadi seorang penyiar menjadi lebih besar.
Kebanyakan beranggapan bahwa akan sulit untuk bisa menjadi seorang penyiar radio maupun televisi. Akan tetapi, asalkan ada kemauan dan keyakinan, maka tidak ada hal yang tidak mungkin. Ada beberapa hal penting yang perlu Anda ketahui jika Anda berencana untuk bekerja sebagai penyiar radio maupun televisi. Berikut tips yang akan membantu Anda:
1. Percaya diri (PD). Percaya diri adalah kunci utama untuk menjadi seorang penyiar. Harus mempunyai keyakinan dan tekad yang tinggi ketika Anda memtuskan untuk menjadi seorang penyiar. karena Anda sudah pasti akan gagal jikalau dari awal saja sudah merasa ragu-ragu, minder, tengsin, dan sebagainya. Percaya diri saja bahwa Anda pasti bisa untuk berbicara dalam studio siaran. Memang sudah pasti akan ada rasa deg-degan ataupun gejala grogi lainnya, tapi bulatkanlah tekad dan yakinkan Anda bahwa Anda pasti bisa melakukannya.
2. Pengetahuan yang luas. Anda salah besar jika beranggapan dengan memiliki suara yang enak didengar dan memiliki fisik yang hampir sempurna (tinggi, putih, cantik/ganteng, dll) merupakan hal yang sangat penting dan diperhatikan oleh pemirsa. Berdasarkan prinsip dasar broadcasting yaitu menyampaikan pesan, berita maupun info ringan, maka sudah dipastikan bahwa seorang penyiar harus memiliki pengetahuan yang luas dalam hal apa pun. Apalah artinya jika seorang penyiar memiliki kesempurnaan pada vokal dan fisik tetapi dangkal pengetahuannya? Oleh karena itu, Anda harus banyak membaca koran, nonton berita di televisi, dan rajin-rajinlah searching info apa pun yang menarik di Internet untuk dijadikan materi siaran Anda.
3. Memiliki pergaulan yang luas. Perbanyaklah teman dalam kehidupan Anda, karena akan ada banyak info yang akan Anda dapatkan. Anda tidak akan bisa sukses menjadi seorang penyiar apabila lingkup pergaulan Anda hanya seputar rumah ataupun kampus Anda saja. Pergunakanlah media pergaulan online yang sekarang sudah semakin banyak dan ramai dipergunakan oleh kebanyakan orang. Atau bisa juga Anda mendatagi tempat-tempat nongkrong yang sedang diminati oleh kebanyakan orang.
4. Mengenali lebih dalam radio ataupun televisi yang menjadi target Anda. Hal ini menjadi penting, karena apabila Anda tidak mempunyai pengetahuan apa-apa tentang radio ataupun televisi dimana Anda akan menjadi penyiarnya, maka sama saja Anda akan membuat malu radio ataupun televisi tersebut. Diibaratkan penyiar adalah mascot dari radio atau televisi, oleh karena itu jangan permalukan diri Anda ketika ada orang yang bertanya tentang radio atau televisi tempat Anda bekerja. Pelajarilah segala sesuatu yang berhubungan dengan radio dan televisi tersebut.
5. Memahami secara mendalam segmen acara radio ataupun televisi. Dengan Anda memahami secara mendalam segmen acara dari radio ataupun televisi dimana Anda akan menjadi penyiarnya, maka Anda berarti sudah mengerti tentang audience/listener: kriteria usia, gender/jenis kelamin, pekerjaan dari audience/listener, program acara apa yang diminati dan yang mereka butuhkan, dan sebagainya. Dengan memahami semuanya maka Anda akan menjadi penyiar yang handal.
6. Mampu bekerjasama yang baik dalam tim Kualitas dari program acara yang akan Anda bawakan akan ditentukan oleh solidnya Anda dengan tim Anda. Oleh karena itu, Anda harus bisa bekerja sama dengan tim Anda. Anda bisa menganggap tim Anda sebagai keluarga. Karena bagaimana pun juga Anda akan saling berhubungan dan berinteraksi lebih banyak dengan tim (maksudnya Anda akan membutuhkan bantuan scriptwriter, teknisi, produser, dll).
7. Be Yourself. Don’t try and be someone you are not. Be yourself atau originalitas merupakan point yang banyak dicari dan dibutuhkan dalam industri radio atau televisi khususnya untuk menjadi seorang penyiar. Jadilah diri sendiri, jangan meniru gaya penyiar yang sudah ada. Temukanlah gaya Anda sendiri, karena semakin Anda berbeda maka Anda semakin mempunyai nilai lebih. Keaslian gaya Anda bisa dilihat dari gaya bicara, penyampaian pesan/adlibs iklan, gaya Anda duduk, penampilan Anda, dan lain-lainnya. Jika memungkinkan, jadikan originalitas diri Anda sebagai trendsetter bagi audience/listener.

Dresses For Curvy Women

Author:   Lidzy Bee

Job Vacancy, Indonesia Job

Being a big fan of television series (ranking from hospital drama such as ER or Grey's Anatomy to recent success Glee) I musty confess that I've become a true addict to Mad Men. Since episode One, it was clear that it was going to be something previously unseen on television. Now we're already ending Season Four and it did not lose charm, perfection and sheer beauty.
Janie Bryant costumes are such a source of inspiration I want to enter a time-machine and apply as a secretary in Sterling Cooper Draper Price.
In fact, you don't even have to be a secretary, you can join the housewives, too! Those Betty Draper ensembles make me wonder: did all the stay at home mums in the 60s dress in perfectly ironed dresses and sleep in ethereal negligees?
Also, look at this season's Sally Draper (a girl!) outfits: makes me want to make a raid in her wardrobe or at least steal some of the ideas.

Being a big fan of television series (ranking from hospital drama such as ER or Grey's Anatomy to recent success Glee) I musty confess that I've become a true addict to Mad Men. Since episode One, it was clear that it was going to be something previously unseen on television. Now we're already ending Season Four and it did not lose charm, perfection and sheer beauty.
Janie Bryant costumes are such a source of inspiration I want to enter a time-machine and apply as a secretary in Sterling Cooper Draper Price.
In fact, you don't even have to be a secretary, you can join the housewives, too! Those Betty Draper ensembles make me wonder: did all the stay at home mums in the 60s dress in perfectly ironed dresses and sleep in ethereal negligees?
Also, look at this season's Sally Draper (a girl!) outfits: makes me want to make a raid in her wardrobe or at least steal some of the ideas.

I notice that retro lingerie is back too, paired with lace, which is another among the great fashion comebacks this year.
I'm a bit at a loss: I've been reading that exercising isn't directly proportional with waist centimeters loss. I should cut down on pasta, bread and cakes and increase the consumption of protein (whether it is shakes or meat - in particular chicken and poultry). I should forget all those lovely pralines in heart-shaped boxes and step on a treadmill. I should forget stiletto heels and wear some hideous shape-up trainers on my way to work?
But then, what is a small sacrifice of 3 months compared to a gorgeous Betty Draper style dress? Or shall I just go for a Joan Holloway style and remain curvy and happy?

Tips for Booking Your Male Stripper - Strippergram

Author:  Lisa Woodward
Indonesia Job, Job Indonesia

We have all been to a hen night or party where a Male stripper has arrived to entertain you and he has been more of a shock than a surprise, In fact it happened to me many years ago, some friends had booked what they believed to be a 20 something, muscular well toned guy and when he arrived, well lets say he was none of the above.
In my recent years of working in this industry I have heard many horror stories so this article is aimed to give you advice for when booking a male stripper / strippergram.
Firstly I would advise you to research the company, read their testimonials, this way you will get an idea of the quality of service they provide. All reputable companies will have a website for you to visit, where you will be able to view pictures of the guys they employ, choose your stripper according to the taste of the lucky girl they are to perform to. The company will usually ask you to choose more than one stripper, this way you are guaranteed to get one of your chosen guys at your event. When booking your strippergram you will be asked the following details: your name, address and contact number, the name and address of the venue your event is being held, it is always a good idea to check with your venue that they are happy for the stripper to perform there before booking. Most companies will ask for a deposit so booking early allows you to send the deposit via post rather than paying on your credit card and you will receive a booking confirmation, I strongly advise that where possible you do not give card details as this allows the company to take more money than they quoted you. Some of the more reputable companies are now giving you a booking code known only by yourself to be quoted in all correspondence, this is because their have been occasions where a less than reputable company have somehow managed to get your details and have rang to cancel your stripper explaining that there has been a problem but they then give you another number to call to rebook your stripper, if you receive a call regarding your booking, you should ask for this code if they do not know it then do not continue with them if you are unsure you should call the office where you booked for reassurance, remember a reputable company will not just cancel your booking

How To Choose The Best Massage Oil For A Spa Treatment And Is It Important For Health?

Talking about spa massages, the first thing that comes into the most people minds are massage techniques such as Lomi Lomi or Swedish. Massage oils are often overlooked but play a major part when it comes to health benefits. Vegetable oils are known for their health benefits for centuries and are used for cooking and therapeutic purposes.
A good massage oil is 100% pure, natural and without artificial ingredients. In general, it is made of a carrier oil and enriched with highly concentrated essential oils to achieve a synergy for wellbeing and healing.
The benefit for a good massage oil depends on the carrier and essential oils it contains. A good, cold pressed and natural carrier oil contains essential fatty acids and liposoluble vitamins. Them both have a great influence on blood circulation, skin and immune system. The fatty acids can't be build by the body and need to be given. So you are not only emotionally blossoming out during a massage, you are also improving your immune system if a quality oil is used. The oil also increases the antioxidants in your body, which will slow down the aging processes.
A good massage oil is blended with aromatic, highly concentrated, volatile, but most important natural essential oils. They produce a pleasant aroma in the spa and boost the mind. Essential oils are close related to hormones and therefore their mechanism is very similar. The essential oil's main duty is to strengthen the inner organs and the defence mechanism of the body. It is safe to believe that vegetable essential oils are anti-inflammatory, anticonvulsant, circulation-enhancing and raise the tonus of stomach, bowel, liver and gall.
Essential oils can be absorbed through the nose, mouth and skin. The application over the skin, for example during a massage is excellent because the oil is absorbed quickly and easily shared out to the tissue. A consultation before the use of natural massage oils excludes allergic reactions.
A spa in Berlin developed a massage oil menu. "The massage oil menu informs about the variety of ingredients and benefits of our selection of massage oils" says Sana v. Meibom from Sana's Day Spa for Women. The suitable oil for the massage is suggested, but can be changed according to the clients needs.

Hawaiian Theme Wedding

Job Vacancy, Indonesia Job, Job Indonesia, Job, Careers

The decision of the wedding theme is the most important decision of the wedding planning. This is because the other planning decisions are planned according to the theme. The Hawaiian wedding theme is a theme of colors, exotic flowers, the sea, the greenery, Hawaiian music, beautiful traditions and true love. This theme gives the couple extraordinary options to decorate themselves, their wedding and the honeymoon. The love of Hawaii showers a joyous blessing for the couple who decide to tie the knot in the spirit of the exotic garden islands of Hawaii. Another great advantage of a Hawaiian theme is the great many beautiful options that are available for the bridal shower gifts or the wedding favor gifts. The various aspects of the theme are described here. Furthermore, a Hawaiian wedding theme can also be painted as other themes like a beach wedding theme or a tropical forest theme.
Hawaiian wedding tradition
Before embarking on the marriage voyage by the colors of Hawaii it is necessary to understand the significance of the colors. What that simply means that, it is important to have an idea about Hawaiian traditions before planning the theme. After you have the ideas, you can even add your own colors to the tradition to make your wedding a more exclusive occasion.
The traditions are an ethnic blend of old Hawaiian traditions, Western traditions, Japanese traditions and the traditions of the Pacific islands. In ethnic Hawaii, the ceremony was a simple ceremony and the couple only got the consent of the elders if they were truly in love. A Hawaiian wedding is held amid joyous music, dance, and the simple exchange of flowers and vows. An unique aspect of an ethnic Hawaiian wedding is that, after marriage the groom moves in to live with the girl. The symbolism of this tradition refers to the island people's respect to the spirit of femininity. Each island also has individual traditions when it comes to the celebration of the newlyweds. The blend of other traditions has also enriched Hawaii. For instance, like a Japanese wedding sometimes a Hawaiian bride is also required to make 1001 origami birds and distribute them as wedding favor gifts among the invitees and the strangers at the ceremony.
Hawaiian flowers
The flowers add color, perfume and the Hawaiian spirit of love to the ceremony. The orchids, the blossoms and the special island flowers transpire a colorful heavenly aura to the occasion. The flowers in fact play the most important part in a Hawaiian wedding. Two most important flower traditions are the circle of flower and the lei tradition.
The circle of flower is a beautiful tradition where the guests prepare a circle of flowers surrounding the bride and the groom while they share their vows. The tradition signifies the joyous participation and the best wishes of the guests at the conjugal ceremony.
The lei tradition is the most important flower tradition of a Hawaiian ceremony. Lei simply refers to the garland of flowers that is worn around the head or adorning the neck as a garland. When it is worn around the head, the lei is known as a haku lei. A lei is worn by the women and men of Hawaii on any occasion that deserves the expression of affection from one person to another. At a wedding the exchange of lei between the bride and the groom symbolizes the wedding. The joyous barter of the lei between the couple is held in an ambiance of the Hawaiian wedding chant (or the famed Elvis Presley Hawaiian Wedding song). The lyrics of the song express the celebration of love when the melody sings,
Here and now dear,
All my love,
I vow dear
Promise me that you will leave me never
I will love you longer than forever.
The Lei tradition found its space in the Hawaiian tradition by the early Polynesian voyagers of Hawaii from Tahiti.
The Plumeria, the Bird of Paradise flower, the yellow and orange Kaunaoa (air plant), red Ohia, yellow lima, white and purple orchids and the white Tiare flowers are some of the several flowers that are used for decoration, ornamentation and for making the lei. Hawaiian flowers also have their aura as special wedding favors.
The lei is also worn by the guests, the bridesmaid, the groomsmen and the flower girl. Since flower decorations need prior planning and flowers are seasonal and fragile in nature, so it is best to make an arrangement with the right florist at least five months early of the wedding. While selecting the florist, ensure that the florist is only using fair trade flowers in the arrangement.
Hawaiian wedding favor
The selection of a Hawaiian wedding theme allows an extensive selection of favor options. there are so many different types of favors, and each one is so beautiful, that you can only do justice if you present each guest with a personal wedding favor. Palm hand fans, star fish designs, floral patterns, orchids, sea shells, exotic flower seeds...the list of wedding favors is just endless. While selecting the favors it is also important to keep the children and the priest as special recipients of the favor. The closest friends, bridesmaids and the groomsmen also deserve special attention.
Hawaiian honeymoon
Hawaii is an amazing honeymoon destination for the newlywed and for everyone who wants to celebrate their relationship. The islands of Hawaii present innumerable honeymoon choices, each one equally secluded, private and beautiful. The people of Hawaii are also special people who will understand, acknowledge and respect the love between people. This lovely spirit of Hawaii finds expression in the Hawaiian guitar and the Hawaiian music.
Best wishes for your Hawaiian wedding.

Planning a Green Wedding

Weddings are never cosmetic affairs. In fact, they are more a means of accepting and respecting the connection with nature. If you are planning an Eco-friendly wedding, then you are showing more respect to this natural nature of the weddings. Testimonials from Eco-friendly weddings confirm that there is a certain very happy feeling of solace in an Eco friendly wedding. You will feel in your mind that there is no artificiality or toxicity associated with the wedding. Planning an Eco-friendly wedding is easy as the Eco-friendly ideas are less fussy and cleaner than other wedding ideas. If you have a simple list in your mind about the aspects that must be considered, then you can spare yourself the confusion about planning a green wedding.
Simple ideas
First point in the list is to keep the ideas simple. An important aspect of green weddings is to rely more on nature and cut down on heavy wedding decorations. There are so many aspects of weddings, and simple Eco-friendly altercations can be made at each these steps. What you have to remember is to keep the ideas simple. Simplicity will simply guide you to green ideas. A few different aspects of simple Eco-friendly ideas are described in this article.
Paper ideas
Papers have different applications during weddings. Try to minimize the use of paper in the weddings as much as possible. When using paper, ensure that the papers are Eco-friendly and the ink used on paper are non-toxic. A simple idea to save the use of paper is to use email invitations and internet blogs for your wedding invitations. Emails, e-greetings and blogs can be personalized and customized beautifully for sending invitations. A little internet search can lead you to a good e-greetings site. People have also come up with more innovative ideas like registering a toll free number and then sending the wedding invitations on voice mail It can be fun to hear your friends and relatives reply to your voice mail wedding invitations. Paper decorations also often pile up after the wedding, and sometimes a thin polythene film is coated on the decorations. Avoid decorations that use polythene. In fact, try to avoid plastic as much as possible. Plastics are non biodegradable and are potential environment hazards.
Reception ideas
The reception space is an important consideration in green perspective. The foremost idea should be hiring an open natural reception space rather than hiring a reception hall. Also, keep in mind that the reception location should not be too far away, in that way you will be able to avoid traffic worries and also save fuels of your car. Plan the wedding reception in daylight hours, so that you have the natural sunlight illuminating your wedding reception. However, if there are chances of rain or snow, than it is mandatory to have access to a shade. While finding the perfect Eco-friendly spot, see the key aspects such as dancing space and the dining space are perfect or not. If chances are that, you will not be able to avoid electrical lighting at the reception hall. Try to find a reception hall that uses only proper energy-star rated electrical appliances for lighting purpose.
The dining space at the reception must be paid close attention to. Check whether adequate food wastebaskets are placed at the dining to avoid littering. However, the baskets should be beautifully decorated too. Use as much less disposable items and instead use washable utensils like porcelain, glass or wood. Porcelain and glass are very elegant and classy and they add to the traditional vintage value of a wedding. The more simple you keep the food, the more less chances of wasting the food will be. Try including more vegan and fresh fruit options in the wedding diet plan.
If you are looking for a very personal ceremony with a few guests, then you can explore elegant natural locations for your wedding and reception. For instance, you can get married on a lovely quiet seashore. People have also explored other unique Eco-friendly ideas like exchanging the rings under-water or on a flying balloon.
Favors
While deciding on the wedding favors, decide on Eco friendly wedding favor ideas. Actually, there are so many green favor ideas that you may find a pleasantly confusing time to decide the Eco-friendly favor of your choice. Eco-friendly favor ideas like bamboo sticks place card holders, wild flower seed packets, Eco friendly notebook and pencil are beautiful to look at and to be received as gifts. Flowers as wedding favor gifts or bridal shower gifts are also very beautiful wedding favor ideas. The comparatively less expenditure of Eco-friendly gifts over other gifts should also help you in your wedding budget planning.
Flowers
The flowers deserve a special mention in Eco-friendly wedding planning. Since the entire wedding space is decorated with flowers, and flowers are also popular as favor gifts, so take care that the flowers are being purchased from a florist who deals only with fair trade flowers. Using fair trade flowers at your reception will ensure that you are not depriving a flower worker (mostly women) of her fair rights. Since, some flowers at the wedding can still retain their freshness even after a day, so consult with your florist to see whether those flowers can be recycled or not.
Photography
Remember to use the digital photography option at the wedding. Conventional non-digital cameras add up to huge use of chemicals to take out the photo prints. There are several advantages of digital cameras over conventional cameras. Apart from being easy to handle (you just need a week's practice), the snaps can be viewed instantly after they have been taken. Moreover, photographs taken with digital cameras can be easily shared over the internet with your family and friends.
