LG Prada Phone
Prada beat Apple to the market with the first completely touch-sensitive mobile phone. While texting and menu navigation take a bit of getting used to youll find the software is slick and efficient. The painfully cool handset includes a two mega-pixel camera, MP3 player, video player, Microsoft document viewer, Bluetooth and an external memory slot. Aesthetically ...
Motorola MOTO U9
The new Motorola MOTO U9 is small, lightweight and shiny: not my usual taste in mobiles, but I was pleasantly surprised. The MOTO U9 has a clamshell design with a unique outer OLED screen hidden beneath its shiny exterior; you wouldn even know it existed until you received your first text message. What is really amazing about this outer screen is the ingenious interface that allows you to control many of the phones functions, including playing music, using touch-sensitive buttons. You can even reply to text messages using a pre-defined, customisable list of replies, all without actually opening the phone. The feature that most impressed, though, was the predictive text writing: not only does it provide suggestions for finishing words, but it also offers to complete entire sentences that you have previously written, making messaging lightning-quick. The camera is only 2 megapixels, which by todays standards is quite poor, but the phones stylish design and ultra-cool music controls ...
The Clear-Skin Makeover
Like high school pop quizzes and awkward prom dates, pimples are supposed to be distant bad memories. If only. But these days, even moms of teens are battling blemishes — and wrinkles, too. In fact, between 15 and 35 percent of women in their 30s, 40s, and 50s suffer from breakouts, according to a report published last year in the Journal of the American Academy of Dermatology. And those numbers are on the rise, says dermatologist Richard Fried, M.D., Ph.D., author of Healing Adult Acne. Doctors attribute this increase to everything from skyrocketing stress levels and hormone fluctuations to today’s carbohydrate-heavy diets.
If you’re tempted to treat your acne with a few old tricks from your teen years, don’t. Adult skin is more sensitive and less resilient than adolescent complexions, and it calls for treatments that also fight the signs of aging. Luckily, many of the best zit zappers out there happen to be top anti-agers, too. So whether your breakouts are an occasional annoyance ...
The Money Talk
Any relationship that makes it past the initial stages has to deal with one very sensitive issue and that issue is money. The tricky thing with money is that everybody has peculiarities about what it means and what it does to him/her. Every person tends to have money baggage depending on how their parents raised them and how much money is in their past, but also how they currently handle their cash and what they think their financial future will look like.
Money talk can become a necessity at different points in a relationship. If the two of you are planning a vacation together, buying major appliances together or if you’ve been arguing over the issue, the subject should definitely be breached. The only thing to remember is that when the money talk does come up, deal with it right away instead of putting it off. Any procrastination could lead to feelings of resentment or guilt toward you or your partner.
The dreaded money talk is such a sensitive issue -- even if both parties are ...
