Why Women Prefer Bad Boys

Not real: Nice guys are too nice. No one can always be that nice unless they're a saint. They are busy being nice instead of being real and women instinctively don't trust that. Bad boys "keep it real". Nice guys don't want to upset the apple cart.

Respect: No one respects a doormat. Nice guys don't set boundaries or make any real demands. A bad boy doesn't let a woman walk all over him or control him. Women can't respect a man they can control. No respect = No attraction.

Predictable: Most people lead boring, predictable lives, so they're attracted to people who are exciting and unpredictable. Bad boys are always a challenge. Nice guys are never a challenge. Predictable = No excitement = No challenge = I prefer a bad boy.

Mother Nature: Women are designed to nurture. However, instead of doing this with children, they often end up doing it with bad boys. They think their love will save them. Nice guys rarely need to be saved.

Fixer-Upper: Nice guys don't usually need to be fixed. Bad boys usually do, so they become a project. Women think if they can "create" the perfect man, he will never leave them. Also, if they're busy fixing someone else, they don't have to look at what needs to be fixed in their own lives.

Sperm wars: Women are designed to procreate with the strongest possible genes. Bad boys are sending an unconscious message that they have great genes, so they're not afraid of losing the woman by misbehaving. Nice guys are sending a message that they don't think their genes are good enough, so they won't misbehave.

Fear of intimacy: If a woman is afraid of intimacy, she subconsciously knows she can avoid it with a bad boy, since she can never get close enough to him to have to go there. A nice guy will eventually want a commitment, and that's scary.

Low self-esteem: We don't feel comfortable with people who treat us better than we treat ourselves. If you don't think much of yourself, the bad boy is simply reinforcing your negative belief. A nice guy is treating you in a way you're unfamiliar with.

Sex: Women feel a nice guy won't be good in bed. They like to be manhandled sometimes and think a nice guy won't be able to take control and get the job done. A bad boy comes across as being able to get the job done, even though that may not always be the case.

Hot: Have you ever seen a bad boy who wasn't hot? I'm sure there are a few, but they wouldn't be able to get away with half the stuff they did if they didn't look so good. Meanwhile, when a woman describes someone as a nice guy, she means, "He's not hot".

Charm: Nice guys don't always know what to say, and are sometimes at a loss for words. Bad boys can be very charming and know exactly what women want to hear. However, they eventually switch over to being selfish. By the time they reveal their true colors, the woman has fallen for them and has a hard time letting go.

Protection: Historically, men have protected women - physically and otherwise. Bad boys give the illusion of being able to protect women, while with nice guys, women aren't so sure.

Life is about balance. Most men fall into either the bad boy or the nice guy category. The ideal man is neither, but walks that fine line between the two. Until men learn how to do this, more often than not, women will choose the bad boy.

How to Host a Christmas Princess Birthday Party

Does your little princess have a birthday during the Christmas season? Throwing a princess-themed Christmas birthday party gives you three areas to draw from, which makes planning the party a breeze.

For invitations, you have two options: you can either use a Disney princess or other princess themed invitation, or you can use Christmas cards. See what your daughter thinks is the best option, and enlist her help in decorating the cards. She can help decorate them with glitter and glue.

Christmas décor will work great for this type of birthday party. Put up a few extra strands of Christmas lights, and keep the holly and bows around. Draw from the Disney princess themes and use it to add to, not replace, the Christmas décor. Put up a few posters of Disney princesses, and add a little holly to them. Frame a nice picture of your daughter in her Cinderella dress in front of the Christmas tree. Try to stick with the holiday colors of red, white, green, silver, and gold. Since the Christmas décor is already up, you won't need much to decorate the house.

Instead of having a cake, try having a tea party! Let the girls frost small sugar cookies, and gather small pretty candies and let them decorate them. Place the cookies on dainty plates with small pieces of cut up fruit and serve with punch in long-stemmed glasses. If you want to go the extra mile, purchase an inexpensive pair of white gloves for each girl to wear. Wearing gloves while eating makes every little girl feel like a princess. If you have them available, put sparklers on the birthday girl's cookies for birthday candles. Don't forget to take pictures!

For the activities, start with playing dress up. It may help if you borrow extra Disney princess dress up clothes from your daughter's friends before the party. Let the girls take turns in the Cinderella costumes and Disney princess costumes, taking pictures as they model. Turn on some holiday music and let the girls have fun. Playing dress up will probably use the majority of the party time.

Beeswax candles are simple to make, and are special both to the holiday season and to princesses. Purchase sheets of beeswax in a neutral white color, and then buy a few red and green sheets as well. You will also need wicks as well. To make the candles, snip the wick and have the girls wrap the beeswax around it. One visually appealing way to make the candles is to wrap the white beeswax around the wick, and then cut a slightly thinner strip red and wrap it around. Put a thinner layer of green or white on top of that, and so forth. Girls can even make their candles look like candy canes if they'd like! This is a great craft for princesses since it is very easy and has little to no mess involved (we need to keep those Cinderella dresses clean!)

Since the Christmas season is a very consuming, with a schedule of gifts and celebrations, and you'll want to make sure your daughter's birthday is something to remember. Make sure she knows that on her birthday she is getting celebrated, not just as part of the Christmas season. Getting her involved in the birthday party planning will help you both create a memorable day for her.

How to Start Your Own Internet Business With Little Or Zero Capital

One of the greatest revolutions of our time is all businesses small and great going online. Have you ever thought of starting your online business but don't know how to start or where to start from?

Maybe you have heard of people making millions of dollars daily, weekly, monthly, or yearly from the internet without you understanding how it could be possible.

Another case may be those in search of financial freedom and how to quit that frustration sticking 9 to 5 job with your boss always looking from your shoulder on how good or poor is your performance for the day.

Gone are days of starting business with very huge capitals and great business proposals. It is not mandatory any more to have business office, storefront, or factory to start your own dream business. Now, people are finding it harder everyday to step out of their living before getting all their essential needs.

All they need do is to put on their PC, connect to the internet, search out whatever need on the search machine, place their order, and have it shipped to whatever address they are. What a simple world! I can get all I needed from my bedroom. Anything under the sun can be sold and bought on the internet.

Advantages of Starting internet Business:

*Very low or Zero start up capitals.

Today's government and schools are making it mandatory for all the staffs and students to be computer literate and internet compliant. These have forced the government and schools to provide computers and internet connectivity to major schools and offices. The majority of staffs and students are trained free on how to use the computer and the internet service. That is a great investment on you.

Apart from government, most home today are having PC for family use. Churches, mosque, and even shrines today are using computer with internet connection. That is to say PC is a common thing to get nowadays. We are in the era of having a computer, an internet service provider (ISP), an email address, and even having a Blog has become very essential as food, water, and air.

Option A:

If you happen to be among those having free computer and internet services in your office or school, start your internet business immediate. All you need do, is to get one or two training manuals on internet marketing and start from there. Well, some of the ebooks are junks' but you can get a quality manual with mentorship at a very affordable fee.

Option B:

If it happens that you don't have an office or school internet centre, you can go for the option B called cyber Cafe. All over the world today, we have cyber cafe everywhere even to villages. Depending on the area and the standard of the cyber cafe, to browse the internet for one hour is raging from 70naira to 150naira per hour in Nigeria or 0.46cents to $1 per hour in US Dollars. If you should have 4hours daily for your internet Business, it will cost you 280naira everyday or $1.85 every day on your business.

It is 8,400naira or $55.5 monthly investment on your online business. If you have the right Niche at hand, this 8,400naira or $55.5 can earn you 225,000naira or $1,500 monthly. If you count the cost and the margin of the internet and the offline business, you will know that internet business is the millennium revolution.

Option C:

If you want to be in total control of your internet business, option C should be your best option if and only if you can afford it. This option, you will need to buy your own PC or Laptop, and get your own internet service provider (ISP). At this point, you are in total control of your internet business.

You don't have fear of after office hour where will you go. You don't have fear of cafe not working some weekends. At this point, your office can be your bedroom, seating room, farm, even the beach. I started my internet business with option B as a cafe boy but to I browse from the comfort of my bedroom.

With 80,000naira i.e. $530 budget you can get your own brand new laptop and a Broadband MODEM here in Nigeria. The laptop will cost you 60,000naira or far less than that if you are going for the cheap ones. The MODEM will cost you 20,000naira or cheaper than that based your choice of network.

With the advent of telecommunication industries, GSM phones are making internet access easier every day. You can now use your phone as MODEM and your phone service provider as your ISP. Whatever the budget here, 80,000naira not pay rent of your storefront for one year but can set up your online business for life. Therefore, internet business is the cheapest business you can ever start.

*World Wide Access

The internet exposes you to the world. People can access your business from any part of the world. This is one of the advantage those ancient and orthodox business never hard. Today, 99% of business owners in united state are going online. You don't need to travel to US, UK, Europe, Asia, and Africa before doing business with them.

You can sell or buy from any of these continents even if you are living in Sahara desert. All you may need is just to Register Domain Name and Hosting for one year which may not cost you more than 5,000naira i.e. $34.

What do you think if the 6 billion people in world will go online and you have a $10 product that 1billion people are desperately looking for? One day, you will wake up $10billion rich.

* Zero or little Business Discriminations

The internet has broken the ethnic barriers and racial discriminations in business. You don't need to know who you are selling to or who buying from, all that matters on the internet is the quality of services rendered. It doesn't matter either the man is black, white, yellow or red man. All that matters is the service needed and the service provided.

Some people may blacklist some country but that does not make everybody in that country fraudulent.

* Work from anywhere

Another powerful advantage of internet Business is the Work from Home, Work from Beach, Work from your hotel room, Work while traveling, even Work while you sleep if you are using autopilot system and software. No more working 9am to 5pm in that congested office space with a nagging boss looking from your shoulder. You are your own boss in internet business but if you lost focus, the internet will become your boss. Be focused and discipline.

* No Off

The internet never closes. It is on 7/24/365days. The internet never goes off nor sleep year in year out. Your server or ISP may be down but the entire internet can never be down. You may be asleep in Africa and others can be awake America buying from your business while you sleep.

Obviously, the advantage of running your own business online are numerous than any disadvantages. The only major disadvantage is cyber fraud. Now we have seen some of the benefits and advantages of internet business, what kind of internet business can I start?

    Blogging for Profit and Traffic

    Blogging for profit involves specific knowledge of how to make money online, although if you are only blogging for traffic then you are guaranteed that if you link your website to your blog.

    In order to blog for profit, or to make money in other words, you need to understand the principles of Google Adsense, a selling advertising space on your blog and affiliate marketing. You could also advertise your products on your blog if you have any to sell, but you will likely be doing the selling from your website and that is another technique altogether.

    Before discussing ways in which you can use your blog to make money, let's first discuss your blog, and where you are operating it from. If your blog is a Blogger or Wordpress blog hosted by either of these two, then your options are very limited when compared to uploading your own blogging software from wordpress.org. If you are serious about blogging for money then you should do so from your own website.

    If you have no web host as yet, and are seeking one from which to operate your blog, then make sure that your host offers MySQL. You will need that to run Wordpress from your website. The reason that Wordpress is recommended is that it is the best blogging software online if you have your own website. If you do not, then many people prefer Blogger, although others still use Wordpress from the Wordpress.com site.

    I will not go further into this because it is not the object of this article, which is to recommend ways of making money from a blog. First register with Google Adsense. Enter that into your browser and follow all of the instructions. You will be able to offer adverts on your blog, and will be paid every time somebody clicks on an advert. They don't have to buy anything, just click on the advert.

    You should place your Adsense blocks somewhere on your sidebar, and also at the bottom of your blog so that when people have finished reading they have something to click on. If your reader reaches the end of your article, page of blog, it means that are interested in what are writing, otherwise they would have left and clicked on to somewhere else.

    If you have nothing at the end of the post or the page, then people will feel somewhat let down. If you provide them with something to do, even just to click on an advert that interests them, then that is what they are liable to do. The theme of the adverts are determined by the Google contextual algorithm often called LSI, that determines the theme of your content through the vocabulary that you use in it.

    You can also offer affiliate links on your blog: links to products being sold by others whereby you get a proportion of the sales price for each sales (frequently 50%). You can find lots of affiliate products to sell on Clickbank.com. or simply by entering the term into your favourite search engine. These links can take the form of banner ads, text links or clickable logo, and you can place them anywhere on your blog.

    This applies predominantly for blogs run from your own website, where you have total editing over the html of the various components of your blog: the stylesheet that controls each complete page, the headers, footers, sidebars and everything else that makes up your blog. You do not have this degree of control over a hosted blog. If you want to use your blog to make real money, then it is necessary to have your blog on your own website rather than on a blog host such as Bloggit or Wordpress.com.

    There are other ways in which to use your blog to make money, and blogging for profit and traffic is a combination of many sources of income and traffic generation techniques. Once you understand how to use these, you will find your blog a lot more useful than just a simple website.




    Pete has been blogging for less than a year, but already his blogs are making him good money. Find out how he does it on his blog Blog on Blog [http://www.seoscopy.com/BlogonBlog] and also check out his website Create a Blog for more information on how to use blogs to make money and generate traffic to your website.

    Best Web Hosting - Make Your Website's Presence Felt on the Web

    Searching for the best web hosting company for your site can prove to be difficult and complex. There are innumerable options and that too all clamoring to attract the customers by being the top hosts. This further makes it impossible for the users to sort or pick out the authentic or best web hosts available in the market. The most interesting way to choose a quality host is by taking on an appropriate selection procedure.

    Deciding the price

    Various web hosting providers offer different rates. Providers offering the dedicated servers have higher rate than the others with limited bandwidth and budget hosting. There are users who get tempted with the low prices offered by many a web hosts. But it is advisable not to compromise when it comes to quality. There are even some free web hosts that are good enough for the fun or small family sites. However these types of services are not actually suited for the requirements of big online marketers.

    Knowing your needs in advance

    It is highly important to assess the needs and requirements of the site before selecting the best web hosting services. Try getting the answer to what type of site are you wishing to host? Obviously the large company sites will have different web hosting criteria and needs than the personal small sites or homepages.

    The next thing to consider is the bandwidth. These requirements grow more with the development of the site. The best web hosting providers pay for the bandwidth and so the users. It is better to give a price for required data transfer upfront than getting surprised at the bill afterwards. Similarly, it is crucial to decide the amount of disk space that will be given by the web host and finalize the price in advance.

    Special web hosting features

    Various sites have their own sort of needs and so the top or best web hosting should actually accommodate these requirements well. The email addresses need to be standard and have enough capacity for different types of scripts. Ensure that other facilities like the secure servers as well as the shopping carts are provided by the host you choose to hire the services from. Also, it is important to choose the host that offers great customer or technical support service. Try checking their services randomly at different times through email or telephones to see whether they really have that 24/7 kind of service or not.

    Yet other points to be noticed include the speed and reliability. The best web hosting companies will provide the uptime of more than 99percent. This will help your visitors to see your site anytime without any hassle.

    So, the above mentioned things need to be kept in mind while looking out for the best web hosts available.
