You can reduce or increase the size of your nose with nasal contouring, If your nose are in a good condition, no need to do all of this.. Just read it for your info k!! hee.. ;)
A rhinoplasty is a surgical procedure that is used to enhance the appearance that is used to enhance the appearance of the nose. The surgery is capable of increasing or reducing the size of person's nose, narrowing the span of the nostrils, changing the shape of the bridge or tip of the nose, or changing the angle between your nose and your upper lip. The procedure is also able to be used to correct an injury or birth defect, or even to help relieve problems with breathing.
The most appropriate candidates for a rhinoplasty are those who are looking to improve the appearance of their nose, those who need to reconstruct their nose from an injury or birth defect, and those who have a great difficulty breathing. As it is with any procedure, there are associated risks involved with this procedure. These include, but not limited to nosebleed, infection, or an adverse reaction to anesthesia. After the surgery you may experience small burst blood vessel that can appear as tiny red spots on the surface of the skin. These are minor, but may be permanent. When the plastic surgeon chooses to use an open technique, there will be a small scar that runs across the base of the nose which is barely visible. Most people do not experience any of these complications. You need to make sure you discuss these concerns with a cosmetic surgeon before your surgery to make sure that you completely understand the basic risks along with any other specific risks that may also be involved.
At the initial consultation with your plastic surgeon, he or she will examine your nose and explain to you the procedure along with the risks that are associated with the surgery. Also your doctor will give you various option based on your specific situation. The surgeon will ask you about how you want your nose to look and will talk about what he or she thinks is realistic. This observation will be based on the structure of your nasal bones and cartilage, the thickness of your skin, your age, and the shape of your face. At this time, the doctor will also discuss the different types of anesthesia and the risks that are involved with each one. He or she will also explain the estimated length of your procedure and will inform you on how long you healing period will last. You should feel free to ask the surgeon any questions that you may have so that you can have a complete understanding of nasal contouring surgery.

Slovakia sends defending champs home. Today saw a great game in 2010 WC group F match between Slovakia and Italy at Ellis Park Stadium, and you should definitely watch their game highlight online if you want to see a good match! It was certainly non-stop action!! click here to watch the highlight.
Slovakia striker Robert Vittek scored after 25 and 73 minutes and Kamil Kopunek added a third in the 89th for the WC debutants at a stunned Ellis Park, where Italians flags stopped waving almost from the start.
Antonio Di Natale and Fabio Quagliarella scored late on for Italy but the group favorites were always chasing the game. However, it was too late.
Slovakia's win put through to the second round as Group F runners-up to Paraguay who drew 0-0 with NZ. Italy finished bottom of the section with just two points.
With the ozone layer growing weaker by the day allowing the suns UV rays to reach us quicker than ever, the need for sun care and anti aging products has definitely increased as well as our understanding of what our environment can do to our skin and bodies. We all know the importance of using cream with good ingredients for our face, neck and the rest of our body, but the question still remains when is the right time to start being proactive against our aging skin.
The answer is very simple and straight to the point, it is never too early to start. Take for example a company by the name Dermajuv. They offer products that combined the fighting of daily bacteria with the preventative treatment of an anti aging product. Dermajuv offers acne fighting treatments that contain ingredients that kill acne as well as regenerate damaged skin. They offer a neck cream that not only helps with tightening up loose skin but also moisturizers and nourishes the skin. Actually, the Dermajuv neck cream is probably one of their best products in the realm of preventative care.
The reason I say this about Dermajuv neck cream is due to the ingredients that are present in the product. Sesaflash (a gentle tightening agent), Hyaluronic Acid (our bodies natural moisturizer), and Stem Cells (a cell copier for a doubling effect on healing) are among the great neck cream ingredients, that if used at an early age, can cause for a life time of great skin.
This is due to the fact as we age, the natural processes and cells in our bodies that keep our skin young and smooth start to die away due to our daily exposure to the outside world. This leaves wrinkles, lines and extra skin on our face letting us know that our body has finally started to slow down. So, if we start using neck cream like the Dermajuv neck cream at a younger age, we are doubling up on our natural processes and cells giving our body an easier time keeping us youthful. By using a neck cream with the ingredients like Dermajuv neck cream, you are giving an extra hand in handling the environmental elements that age your skin quicker.
By helping your body out sooner, you are giving yourself a lot more time of enjoying a youthful complexion. So, before it becomes too late, and your skin is already to damaged for you to help it bounce back, start using products like Dermajuv line. Mixing daily cleansing ingredients with the right anti aging ingredients to prolong your skin is the way all skincare product should be. Dermajuv neck creams and other Dermajuv products are good example of a company with the right products for the right time. Just do not wait too long to start. Your body will thank you.
As I watch this video I keep on asking myself, Why did this happen? If this incident is ignored as if nothing happen, I can't even picture what future was like. Let's stop it while we still can.
Many nations including Malaysia have emphasized a lot on to stop smoking. But in spite of that people still continue to smoke. (even if government raise the price, they still buy it!! hmm..) This is because they are addicted to it and are not able to get rid of it. But if they think they can, they surely can get rid of the smoking habits.
Before seeing the tips to avoid smoking let us just have a look over the consequences or the symptoms that arises in the human body due to continuous smoking. In the present days, because of smoking one can experience that he or she devoid of taste and smell. Their tongue goes tasteless due to the deposition of nicotine pigments in the taste buds present in the tongue. This occurs during the early stages of smoking.
Then next, the region below the nails of their fingers becomes blackish due to settling of the smaller amounts of nicotine that gets passed to the parts of the body through the blood. Also the lips become black due to smoking.
Then the part below eyes becomes blackish in color due to continuous smoking. These are some of the external factors that are seen physically. But when taken the internal organs into account the damage and effect that is caused is very unimaginable. It creates drastic effect in the body. The internal organs get affected but the consequences are faced and experienced in the later stages of the smoker's life. Some of them are that is results in emphysema and other lung related disorders. Many already know that it induces cancer. But the disorders that many still don't know that smoking causes genetic disorders. It may be shocking and weird to know this. But it is the fact and it has been proved too.
Smoking alters and affects the DNA material of the human body thus affecting the future generation of the individual. This is alarming to know about this. Hence for this at least one should think to stop smoking, but how?
Here are few tips to stop smoking.
1. Take long walks whenever possible and try breathing the fresh air.
2. There is nothing better than meditation. This meditation is to relax ones mind and body from stress and tension. (cause smokers tend to smoke more when they are stress). Hence often do meditation to control the habit of smoking.
3. Attend counseling sessions to create an aversion towards smoking. This is done only by the diversion of mind.
4. Take in regular amount of fluid items to wash of the poison in the body that is caused due to the deposition of the nicotine in the body. (avoid to smoke after eat)
5. Try having a chewing gum or a pepper mint. This may also change the habit of a person.
6. Keep yourself regularly engaged in some work or the other so that your mind does not think and wander to have a cigarette.
Thus, do these simple steps to create an aversion for yourself. For kids, parents are the one who can force them.. they are still kids if you forcing them or not letting them get the cigarette you might be able to stop them.. better late than never..

What is Hangi? A Hangi is the traditional New Zealand Maori way of steaming food underground. The technique originated from early Maori settlers and is still practiced today because of the unique flavor it gives to the food. The way that a Hangi is prepared is truly unique. The whole process can literally take a whole day to complete. This article briefly explains exactly how a Hangi is prepared in the traditional way.
There is absolutely NO taste similar to a Hangi anywhere in the World. Hangi food is steamed underground. That's right, the food is actually buried in the ground as part of the steaming process.
If you ever visit New Zealand, experiencing a Hangi is an absolute MUST DO. You can't truly say that you've been to New Zealand if you haven't eaten a Hangi.
Here's how it's done:
1. Special volcanic stones are loated as a source of heat to cook the food. Normal stones won't generally do the job because they can shatter or crack during the heating process. Finding the right classification of rocks for this job is absolute crucial to the successful outcome of ANY Hangi.
2.These stones are placed in a fire and heated for quite a few hours until they are white hot. The wood used can alter the taste of the Hangi for good or bad. Natural wood is best there are few special types which give a lonely smoky taste. On the other hand, treated timber or chemicals in the wood can make you sick or poison your Hangi.
3. Dig a Hangi Pit.
4. Fill your Hangi basket with a combination of raw, but thoroughly defrosted, meat, vegetables, stuffing and 1-2 steamed puddings. Hangi baskets are usually constructed of wire or manner for optimum cooking.
5. Transfer the hot stones into the hole. This job requires speed and skill. It takes place near a hot fire and is the most crucial step. Once this transfer has occurred, quickly put the basket on top of the hot stone.
6. Drape the basket with moist sacking cloth.
7. Use shovels to cover the Hangi again with earth until there is no steam escaping.
8. Wait 2-3 hours and dig up the Hangi and 'Hey Presto', you've just cooked your very own Hangi!
Hangi food is typically served as a communal buffet. The food is spread out on a table and people usually help themselves as they please Good Hangi accompaniments include Fried Bread or Rewena Bread (Traditional Maori bread).

Love = a profoundly tender, passionate affection for another person. (as 4 parent, child or friend)
But, here I would like to discuss falling in love for the opposite sex. (xsurela untk same sex.. hee). I’m sure every1 knows what is love whether u experinced it or not. It is a beautiful feeling. U don’t have to act on your lovey-dovey feelings. Crushes are likely to pass, so try not to be too vexed (dont make it such a problem) if you or the object of your affection( the person) is unavailable n if one of the things below is happening to U, just try to enjoy it.
A little love that begins to grow in your system can surprise all the normal routine so much; it makes you helpless but to smile. You are in a state of confusion because half of you feel so good, and the other half is because you are laughing at yourself. ;)
3. You can’t look at the person.
In a matter of time, it’s almost impossible to have a nice and simple conversation with that person, because your heart is beating like crazy and you can’t afford to utter a word but to smile. You cannot conduct a simple rule in direct communication which is the eye to eye contact. You are afraid if you look at him in the eye, he will be able to tell your heart is screaming for him from inside. If you are a girl, never ever let he know that you like him, unless he’s showing his sign.
4. You think about him when you’re getting dressed in the morning.
Never try to deny the fact that you yourself start wondering which colour of what shirt look better on you when you wear it. After you are finish with the cloth, a little more effort is needed into your hair and maybe a bit of perfume could compliment your appearance on that morning. Am I right? It’s ok if you do so!
5. You realize you miss him when they’re not around.
You see him everyday, at your office or class. He is the object of your affection that gives extra motivation for you to be there. One day, he is not there due to his own reason that you do not know; you’ll feel like your whole day was wasted and you’re already looking forward for the next day.
6. You get jealous about odd things.
You find out that he catch a movie last night and your ears turn red as well as the illusive swelling on your face. Who did he go with? Why you are not invited? This sort of questions punching on your thought marks your jealousy and rage within yourself.
7. You’ve pictured what your children would look like.
Oopps.. (It brings no harm anyway)
8. People say you’re glowing.
If laughter is the best medicine, love is the stimulant. From love, you get laughter. The feeling of being in love is both physical and chemical. Love can rejuvenate people and make us happy. It shows through your bright smile and the shine on your face.
9. You’ve suddenly become a different person.
Your friend notices the changes in you since you started to quit smoking for guys and the female started bringing cookies and brownies to share with the office or class. It could be none happier than to see the object of your obsession has noticed that. Even more, you keep your apartment neat and tidy in case he or she might come over with your other friends — these are definitely signs you are falling.
10. U can’t concentrate on work.
Maybe even as you’re reading this article, you suddenly glance at the clock on your screen and realizes that half an hour has gone by; thinking, imagining and smiling at yourself for all the signs that we had mentioned is exceptionally true. That’s because you are daydreaming and you’re so much in love!
