10 Short Cuts To Looking Great

You might be considering joining the gym to get toned,

considering taking up long distance running, or going

in for therapy! Whatever it is, making long term changes

in your life can take time. But if you want to

transform your appearance in very little time with minimal

effort, we’re here to help you! Most of you know these ideas

already, but might not have bothered to implement them.

If you have a special occasion coming up - a date or an

interview or a wedding to attend - try out these tips

to look your fashionable and well-groomed best.

Tip 1: Use that iron

A crumpled shirt or wrinkled pants will do nothing

for your appearance! Make sure to get your clothes

ironed by your cornerpress-wala, or else do it yourself.

If you are doing it, make sure that you use long continuous

strokes and fold your fabrics properly, so that there

aren’t any wrinkles left when you eventually wear it. This will

take you less than five minutes to do if you do it yourself

and will instantly give you a perky appearance.

Tip 2: Floss gives you gloss

Dental hygiene experts recommend flossing teeth at

least once a day. We recommend that you floss mainly

because it will add charm to your smile to when you flash

glistening teeth, and of course if there is any left over food

particles stuck in between your teeth, it will get rid of them

and save you embarrassment.

Tip 3: Spit and polish

Sigh, you might think! Here they go again about the

shoes, but we guarantee that unless you pay attention

to the quality and shine of your shoes, all your efforts

at looking your best could be ruined by just your pair

of scuffed and worn shoes. Make sure you take time

to polish your shoes, keep them free of dirt and grime,

and polish them regularly. The whole process shouldn’t

take you more than a couple of minutes but it will guarantee

that it gets you the compliments.

Tip 4: A ‘Hair’y affair

Though hair on men is a sign of masculinity, and most men

don’t like to go for that waxed salman look. Having visible

tufts of hair growing out embarrassing orifices and crevices

of your body is not going to do anything to enhance your

appearance. Check your ears and nose for stray hairs,

the back of your neck and your eyebrows and most

importantly your armpits, especially if you planning

to wear something sleeveless. Though your whole body

does deserve your attention when it comes to

trimming hair and keeping yourself well-groomed, in a situation

where you are pressed for time and want to look your

best, check these five areas and you’ll be safe. Unless

you’re as hairy as a bear, this process shouldn’t take you

more than five or ten minutes.

Tip 5: Feel like a change

A great way to give yourself an interesting new look,

is to change the way you wear your facial hair. Try a

goatee or a soul patch like the one Aamir Khan had

in Dil Chahta Hai. If your beard has grown long, trim

it properly or shave it off, depending on what you prefer

. Don’t worry too much about not getting it right,

because if you do mess up with styling it with your razor

and scissors, there is always the option of going clean

shaven. This again should take you a maximum of half hour.

Tip 6: Accessorize

If you happen to like jewelry, try a tasteful bracelet

or a sedate ring. Feel daring? Go in for a necklace.

But don’t overdo the jewelry or you could end up

looking like a drug lord or hip-hop star! But if you do

not like wearing jewelry, then make sure you wear

a smart watch. Whatever you choose, make

sure it suits your personality and that you wear it well.

If you’re unsure about jewelry, it’s best to skip it altogether

rather than overshadowing your date’s jewelry with yours.

Tip 7: Keep your nails clean

If you put your arm around your date and she spies dirty

or untrimmed nails, your chances of a second date

would be pretty slim. To make a lasting impression, and

to convey the image of a man who takes care of his

appearance, it’s necessary to keep your nails clean,

trimmed and filed. To make your nails look good,

clip your nails, scrape away any dirt under it, and

then use warm water and soap to wash your nails. If

you have a few minutes more, file your nails. Clean your

cuticles and push them back and rub on some hand cream.

Of course, if you have the time to go to a men’s

salon, get a manicure. All it takes is 10 minutes of

your time to guarantee a second look.

Tip 8: Exfoliate

Pick a good exfoliating scrub from your local chemist

to give your face that instant glow. A good scrub will

remove dead cells, and give your face a quick boost.

Use some warm water to wet your face, apply the

scrub in strokes and then rinse. Follow this up with

some moisturizer to keep your skin looking fresh and

to keep it from becoming dry. All this takes is three to

five minutes.

Tip 9: Workout

Though a continuous and regular fitness program is

very important to maintain your fitness levels, even

a short workout can make a difference. Spend a

little time doing some strength training exercises -

push-ups, bicep curls and sit-ups. If you continue

these short workouts, they can actually help build

muscle mass over time. Besides, they also give

you a confidence boost and give your muscles

some needed definition.

Tip 10: Kissable Lips

In winters, lip balm can save you from the painful

blushes that chapped lips can cause. But it’s best to

buy a tube to use throughout the year, because no

date will want to cozy up to you if you have dry and

chapped lips. It takes a few seconds. Stick to one

that is unscented and non-flavored because you won’t

be tempted to lick it off.

This whole process shouldn’t take you too long and

will make sure that you look well-groomed and smart.

You can work on making these tips a part of your daily

routine so that looking good isn’t restricted to

a few special occasions. After all, appearance always

does matter

Sensual Biting

Did you know that biting is one of the easiest ways of turning on

Did you know that biting is one of the easiest ways of turning

on a woman. Surprised? If you are then I am pretty sure that you

would be equally dumbstruck if someone told you that girls love

to be tongued down there... In fact these very elementary tips on

spicing up one’s act in bed can be confusing to most guys.

Believe it or not, a woman’s body reacts to a little pain in quite the

same way as it does to a skilled tongue probing her erogenous zones.

The watch word here is “skilled”. You have pretty artful while you indulge

in a little biting. You won’t be able to able to drive your woman crazy

by sinking in your teeth and gnawing at her as if she was something

served in KFC, unless of course you were dating Mr. Lecter’s daughter.

You have to first arouse her mind, make her anticipate and

shudder with excitement at what you are about to do. So here your

first ground rule for a successful biting session.

Enhance the mood

It’s pretty simple really. Biting is not one of those things that you

can use to take a girl by surprise. Unless her body is prepared

to be bitten, both physically and mentally – you can actually end

up hurting her. It’s best to start with lot of kissing, caressing,

petting – anything you know will sufficiently aroused before you

actually bite her.

You bite where you kiss

If you do plan to take a dig at your woman, which are the places

you should ideally target? According to the Kamasutra, any

place that can be kissed can be bitten, except the upper lip.

But biting during lip locks can be slightly tricky so if you are

about to introduce your girl to your teeth for the first time, start

of with the nape of her neck. This is one of the most sensitive

parts of a girl’s upper body and you would need to be exceptionally

clumsy to mess it up. So while you are indulging in some pretty

passionate kissing gently break off, and start nuzzling your girl’s

neck, and then lightly nip her there using only one upper and lower

teeth. Other areas where your can focus the attention of your

incisors are her lower back, the curves of her waist line and her

bottom.

Keep it quick

For how long should you bite? Well the longer you bite, the

more it will hurt. So the best nip is one that doesn’t last for

more than just a few seconds. The second rule is not to concentrate

your toothy affections on a single spot. It will really start hurting

her after a while.

The two most sensitive places

If you are lucky enough to get to the third base, you teeth will

be able to explore whole new zones of her sexuality. First

are of course her breasts. When you start sucking on them, get

them perked up and gently nibble on her nipples. Breasts are

one of the most sensitive parts of her body and believe me that

is a place she would absolutely be thrilled to be bitten. Of

course, don’t get carried away and confuse them with teething toys.

The second is her inner thigh. When you go down her don’t

be in a hurry to perform cunillingus. Focus your attention on her

inner thighs, on the areas that are really close to her vagina. With

a series of light well placed nips, you will have her purring with delight.

To drive her really crazy don’t immediately give in to her demands

for penetration and simply continue to tease the fringes, by lightly

nibbling her inner things while lightly stroking the labia till she

loses complete control.

Don’t make funny noises

Though she would love to turn on the animal in you, but she certainly

won’t like to have you sound like one. Extensive use of the mouth

may result in noises that have absolutely no place in the bedroom

– smacking and slurping (like while eating a Cornetto) sounds plain

disgusting. A wet Sluuurrrp, can jolly well dowse the flame that

you worked so hard to ignite. Moreover, don’t even dream of

using silly idiotic words, if you cant think of anything exciting

(read dirty) to say, then end up saying something like “yummy”.

It sounds idiotic, even as I write it.

Don’t chew

There is a difference between light nips and gnawing. You gnaw

at a chicken drumstick while you nip at a strawberry ice. Get

the idea. You nips should be light and crisp. They should be short.

Nobody likes to have her body gnawed upon. Keep your bits clean

and don’t try to get all thirty two of your pearly whites into the act.

If done skilfully, biting is something that can arouse the most vanilla

of women. So don’t be afraid to let lose your animal and use

these tips to drive your woman absolutely wild in bed.

Top 10 Extinct Animals (alive only in photographs).

We have killed more species of animals than criminals arrested

in the last five decades. We may try to ignore the facts but

the experience of seeing (and / or photographing) an animal and

then realizing that the animal only be alive in a photograph is

not a happy thought. Here is a list of Top 10 Extinct Animals

(alive only in photographs).

Meanwhile, each day we welcome 2,10,000 more humans on

this planet; 15 lakh more every week! This is why mankind calls

itself a virus. For instance, 78 percent of marine mammals are

now endangered due solely to accidental death and one in

every

four mammals are threatened because of habitat

damage. According to recent stats, Asia has the most

endangered species at 79 percent.

Tasmanian Tiger

The Tasmanian Tiger was the largest carnivorous

marsupial of modern history. Despite being termed as

a 'tiger,' it wasn’t even vaguely related to cats, its closest

living relative is the Tasmanian Devil.

The principal cause of its extinction was mass hunting, though

the last one died in the Hobart Zoo, in Tasmania, Australia,

on September 7, 1936 due to neglect!

Quagga

The Quagga was the queer brother of the zebra. The stripes

on a Quagga were limited to its frontal portion and the

rest of the body was similar to a horse with the exception

of white feet. Photographs are the only proof that this animal

ever existed. By 1870s, they were all killed, the last one died

at a zoo in Amsterdam, Netherlands, on August 12, 1883.

Passenger Pigeon

How can a bird, whose biggest flock recorded in 1820s

consisted of a billion birds be extinct in only 100

years? During colonization the slaves and the poor were

encouraged to hunt pigeon for food and pigeon

meat was commercialized as cheap food. Farmers

also had a grievance against their vast numbers. So

as a solution they terminated the species. The last known

Passenger Pigeon, named “Martha”, died in captivity on

September 1, 1914, in Cincinnati, Ohio, in 1896

Golden Toad

An Australian biologist Tim Flannery has described the

extinction of the Golden Toad to be the first demise of a

species due primarily to global warming. Recognized

by its bright golden-orange color, the species was last

sighted in 1989.

Caribbean Monk Seal

In 1491 Columbus, during his voyage, wrote about tiny

‘sea wolfs’; his team hunted and ate eight of them. The

trend ended in 1952, when all the monk seals were

extinct. The species was officially declared extinct just

last year, on June 6, 2008.

Pyrenean Ibex

The last known Pyrenean Ibex died on January 6, 2000.

However the species was brought back to life. This year

in January, Pyrenean Ibex became the first ever

species to be brought back into existence through

cloning. Though the newborn died just seven minutes

after due to lung failure, the events have raised optimism.

Bubal Hartebeest

The Bubal Hartbeest was first domesticated by the

Egyptians and even has a mention in the Old

Testament. The mythological aura however wasn’t

resilient enough to save it from European hunters.

The last was probably a female which died in the Paris Zoo

in 1923.

Tecopa Pupfish

The Tecopa Pupfish was the first species to be declared

extinct under the Endangered Species Act of 1973. The

fish were first discovered in the Tecopa Hot Springs in California

in 1942. The springs were replaced with bathhouses, hotels

and trailer parks for tourists.

Pink Headed Duck

Pink headed ducks were natives of north-east India. They are

now extinct. However no official statement on this matter has

been provided. There have been only two sightings of this

shy bird, both in Myanmar; however the sightings have

failed to provide any proof. The photograph was taken in1930.

Susu Dolphin

Susu Dolphin or the Ganga Dolphine are not extinct,

however only 500 of the lot are alive. I give them five more

years.
