Women Who Owned Fabulous Jewellery Collections
-While diamonds and pearls ruled Zsa Zsa Gabor’s jewellery box, her unique sense of style led her to have some of the most interesting and quirky jewellery creations. She has inspired many a designer jewellery lines and has been such a strong influence that even today, when people refer to OTT glamorous jewellery, they actually say ‘It’s so Zsa Zsa’.
-Photographed in black and white tones, these ladies had personal jewellery collections that could awaken the green eyed monster in anybody. 2012 take cue, a woman who loves her diamonds looks way beyond the big engagement rock.
-“I’m fortunate to have some very important pieces of jewellery. I don’t believe I own any of the pieces. I believe that I am their custodian, here to enjoy them, to give them the best treatment in the world, to watch after their safety, and to love them”. Yes, those are indeed the words of someone who truly loves her jewels. With a selection of tiaras, necklaces, brooches and rings,Elizabeth Taylor was famed for having one of the most prestigious jewellery collections in America, and did not wait to be gifted the bling she set her heart on.
-She may have tied the knot with Frank Sinatra much later, but Tycoon husband Howard Hughes must be credited for the expensive jewels stocked in Ava Gardner’s jewellery box. One of Hollywood’s biggest stars from the 1940s to 50s, Ava was known for her luxurious sense of style and more importantly her elegant diamonds and sapphires.
-A platinum baguette diamond necklace, a 75-carat Raymond Yard amethyst ring and poodle pins, with ruby and sapphire eyes and pearl halos—consider this a preview into the life and style of Joan Crawford. With a penchant for sapphires, Joan favoured simplistic design and her of jewellery compensated in carats what it lacked in complexity.

Studies show that morning people are happier than night owls, so when Kim Kardashian tweeted about her a.m. mani-pedis, it got us thinking. Experts swear some of the items on your to-do list are best done before breakfast. Try these early morning moves to be successful at pretty much every area of your life.
Get A Mani-Pedi
Experts say getting posh treatments like a massage or manis are ultra relaxing when your early-morning dream-like state hasn’t worn off yet. So the next time you wake up a little groggy, don’t fight it and head over to the salon.
Be Crafty
If you’ve been thinking about taking up painting, or finally going to that trendy new ceramics class, schedule it in the a.m. According to the experts, people are hyper-creative in the morning, making it the perfect time to get those artsy juices flowing.
Turn Up the Heat
Heat works wonders on your muscles in the morning (it helps warm them up for the rest of the day), while cooler temps should hit your limbs at night to help them cool down. If you’re a fan of Bikram yoga or like to take steamy showers, save those treats for the early hours.
Climb the Corporate Ladder
Studies have found that people can focus the most in the morning, and the ability to stay sharp fades throughout the day. If you’re doing career planning—sending out resumes and sorting through job apps—kick off your day with those activities. You’ll see less errors and more efficient work in the a.m. than you will at night.
Send A Tweet
Studies show that people are more optimistic in the morning, so send out some good vibes through social media. Your Facebook and Twitter feeds will make you look like a positive go-getter.
Go On a Date
Experts recommend using the morning to socialize and make plans that your busy day might otherwise crowd out. So if you always get surprised by last-minute errands or work projects, try meeting friends or a new guy for breakfast. It’ll put you in a great mood for the rest of the day.

Denise Milani in black
Denise made her way to the top of websearches worldwide without posing nude. Boasting an incredible 34DDD-19-34 toned body and a pretty face to match, it’s not surprising that Denise Milani’s website, DeniseMilani.com has become the #1 most popular single model website on the planet.
Born in the Czech Republic on April 24, 1975, Denise Milani eventually immigrated to the United States. While living in Los Angeles, CA, the jaw-dropping beauty got a job…as a massage therapist. It didn’t take long before Denise was offered modeling jobs, starting off her modeling career in 2005 with SPORTSbyBROOKS.
DeniseMilani.com was launched in 2007, and has since become, as noted earlier, the most popular individual model website in the entire internet. Think about it…without posing nude, within less than 2 years of launching, Denise Milani’s website is more popular than that of ANY other individual model! But looking at her spectacular physique, and seeing the clear enthusiasm and excitement that Denise brings to each and every photo and video, it’s hard to see why she wouldn’t be anything less than the most popular beauty on the web. Denise Milani’s MySpace profile is also extremely popular.

Ball under the masks
A mask is an article normally worn on the face, typically for protection, disguise, performance or entertainment. Masks have been used since antiquity for both ceremonial and practical purposes. They are usually worn on the face, although they may also be positioned for effect elsewhere on the wearer’s body, so in parts of Australia giant totem masks cover the body, whilst Inuit women use finger masks during storytelling and dancing!
Katy Perry Beautiful Butterfly Girl
Katy Perry (born Katheryn Elizabeth Hudson; October 25, 1984) is an American singer-songwriter and actress. Born in Santa Barbara, California, and raised by Christian pastor parents. Perry grew up listening to only gospel music and sang in her local church as a child. After earning a GED during her first year of high school, she began to pursue a career in music. As Katy Hudson, she released a self-titled gospel album in 2001, which was unsuccessful. She later recorded an album with production team The Matrix and completed the majority of a solo album from 2004–05, the later of which was never released. Perry is the first female artist to get five hits on the Billboard Hot 100 in one year.
Real Life Russian Barbie Doll
Our crush today is, to steal an expression from our mothers, a living doll. Literally, a living doll. Little is known about this beauty that looks like a real-life Barbie except the fact she is A) real B) creepy in a sexy way or possibly the other way around and C) from Russia. WHAT A COUNTRY!
Russian Barbie puts to rest the ridiculous claim that it would be physically impossible for a real woman to have Barbie’s actual measurements. A woman would be over six feet tall with a 39? bust, 18? waist and 33? hips in order to live up to the Barbie standards. Well, Russian Barbie seems to be doing just fine. She is standing upright in all these photos. Leaning in a couple, but upright for the most part. Thesis refuted.
We love Russian Barbie for going to the extreme to look like her favorite plastic doll. We’re sure women would love it just as much to find a real life Ken. From the waist up of course. There are PLENTY of real Ken dolls walking around from the waist down. Am I right ladies?!? High-five!

How to Make a Woman Happy
Perhaps you took a course on human sexuality in college. If you did, you likely remember one thing: the lecture on the female orgasm. Women want to have them, men want to deliver them. But all too often, the fairer sex’s big-O falls among the ranks of the Abominable Snowman—great, even magical, in theory, but not something that’s often stumbled across.
If women are flummoxed by their orgasms, you’re thinking, what hope do you have? Lots, it turns out. Sure, the female orgasm is fickle. But if you follow our 10 lessons about the female orgasm, you’ll have the knowledge you need to start studying (and finally seeing) it in the wild. So sit down, listen up, and whip out your pencil. Class is in session.
Take Her Off the Clock
Just as you’re concerned about lasting longer, many women are so self-conscious about taking too long that they end up faking orgasm or deciding to go without. The solution? Stop obsessing over orgasms—yours and hers. A recent brain-imaging study by Swedish researchers shows that relaxation is the single most important factor in bringing a woman to orgasm.
So tell her she has all night. The better you convey not just tolerance for a lengthy buildup, but also appreciation of her sexual pleasure—orgasm or not—the easier it will be for her to unwind and explode. Oh, and studies show that it takes 15 to 40 minutes for the average woman to reach orgasm. Going somewhere?
Turn Her On with Your Talent
The best sex starts long before the clothes come off. Talent—more than rugged good looks or a chiseled midsection—is a powerful aphrodisiac, according to research by my colleagues at The Kinsey Institute. (Less surprisingly, poor hygiene and a messy home are among women’s biggest turnoffs.)
So nail “Paradise City” during karaoke. Or make her die laughing at your self-deprecating display of atrocious dartsmanship. Yes, humor is a talent, too.
When She’s Naked, Speak Up
Women who worry about the way they look down there are less likely to orgasm easily during oral sex, according to my research. And a recent study published in the Journal of Sex Research suggests that women who feel embarrassed or ashamed about their bodies have less sexual experience and are less sexually assertive.
Clearly, you have everything to gain with flattery. If you love the way she looks naked—and you do, right?—share the news.
Always Be Tender Up Top
During foreplay, gently brush the tops, bottoms, and sides of her breasts; these areas are actually more sensitive than an unaroused areola and nipple. Gradually move in toward her nipples, paying attention to how she responds. As things heat up, the nipples will become flushed with blood, and the sensory receptors will become primed for direct stimulation. You’ll kickstart the bloodflow and lubrication down below, starting her slow buildup.
Learn Her Key Strokes
One thing many women love during manual stimulation: a slow buildup. Here’s how to do it: Lie next to her, lightly bracing the heel of one hand just above her clitoris. Now run your ring and middle fingers along the length of her outer lips. Graze the skin at first, adding pressure as the tension builds. Cup the area around her clitoris with your palm to add indirect stimulation—most women are too sensitive to receive direct contact early on. As she becomes aroused, brace your hand on her mons—her pubic mound, the fleshy area that covers her pubic bone—and tease the clitoris with the middles and tips of your fingers as you move your entire hand.
Change Your Angle
Play Ponce de León and explore various types of penetration to figure out what turns her on most. Your first stop: her G-spot, located about 1 to 2 inches up the front wall of her vagina. This spongy region swells during arousal. Try massaging the area slowly with your fingers. A lot of women find it mind blowing. Not her thing? Just move on.
Use Moves that Multitask
To maximize her pleasure, increase the amount of contact you’ll have with her most sensitive parts. Here’s one move that will drive her wild: Ask her to lie on her back, with her legs stretched out. Now climb on top. Curl your arms around her shoulders, supporting yourself with your elbows and moving your chest up by her chin. The goal is to bring the base of your penis in contact with her clitoris. Thrust slowly, focusing on up-and-down movement instead of in-and-out penetration.
Another great trick: Move your pubic mound in a circle or up and down against her clitoris. You’ll get a break from high-intensity stimulation, and she’ll receive focused attention where it often matters most.
Learn to Sense Her Orgasm
Ease into oral sex—don’t just attack. First kiss her inner thighs and her inner and outer lips, then work your way inside using firm, broad strokes with your tongue. Watch her hips for a clue to the rhythm she likes. Listen to her gasps and moans as you experiment with different techniques.
And watch for signs she’s close to climaxing, such as a subtle deepening in the color of her labia caused by increased bloodflow. Or rest a hand on her stomach and feel for the muscular contractions that immediately precede her orgasm.
Follow Her Lead
Once you reach your point of no return, you’ll climax even if you’re interrupted by a tuba-playing, thong-clad Bea Arthur. But your lady could hit the “off” switch if you stop or change moves midway to orgasm. We love it when you try new things, and it’s important to vary your technique, but once you’ve found a winner, stick with it until she crosses the finish line.

The Parthenon
When work began on the Parthenon in 447 BC, the Athenian Empire was at the height of its power. Work on the temple continued until 432; the Parthenon, then, represents the tangible and visible efflorescence of Athenian imperial power, unencumbered by the depradations of the Peloponnesian War. Likewise, it symbolizes the power and influence of the Athenian politician, Perikles, who championed its construction.
Some historians believe that Athens concluded a peace treaty with Persia in 449, two years before work began on the Parthenon. The significance of this would be that the Delian League/Athenian Empire continued to exist, even after the reason for its existence (a mutual defense league against the Persians) had ceased to be valid. In other words it was now openly acknowledged that Athens was not just the head of the Greek defense league but actually an imperial master over other Greek states. The decision by the Athenians in 454 BC to move the League treasury from the Panhellenic sanctuary at Delos to the Athenian acropolis points in the same direction. Because the Parthenon was built with League funds, the building may be read as an expression of the confidence of the Athenians in this newly naked imperialism. But the piety of this undertaking should not be underestimated; the Persians had sacked the temples on the Athenian acropolis in 480, and rebuilding them fulfilled, in Bury’s words, the Athenians’ “debt of gratitude to heaven for the defeat of the Mede.”
Casey Carlson
I don’t watch American Idol. I think it’s pretty much the worst thing ever on TV. However, I might have to start watching because there was some contestant called “Bikini Girl” who was insanely hot, and now there’s this girl, Casey Carlson, who as you can see is probably one of the hottest girls ever. So, do I put up with Simon, Randy, and Paula, to catch a fleeting glimpse of these beautiful girls? No. That’s what the Internet is for!

She achieved a number of hits, including two number one singles: “Fight for This Love” and “Promise This”.

Hindenburg disaster
The Hindenburg disaster took place on Thursday, May 6, 1937, as the German passenger airship LZ 129 Hindenburg caught fire and was destroyed during its attempt to dock. with its mooring mast at the Lakehurst Naval Air Station, which is located adjacent to the borough of Lakehurst, New Jersey. Of the 97 people on board (36 passengers, 61 crew), there were 35 fatalities as well as one death among the ground crew.
The disaster was the subject of spectacular newsreel coverage, photographs, and Herbert Morrison’s recorded radio eyewitness report from the landing field, which was broadcast the next day. The actual cause of the fire remains unknown, although a variety of hypotheses have been put forward for both the cause of ignition and the initial fuel for the ensuing fire. The incident shattered public confidence in the giant, passenger-carrying rigid airship and marked the end of the airship era.
Queen Elizabeth II
Even as a child, Princess Elizabeth knew the role she was born to; yet would have preferred a simple country life enjoying her love of animals, especially horses and dogs. Born on April 21, 1926, to the Duke and Duchess of York, Princess Elizabeth Alexandra Mary, was suddenly thrust into a role she had not envisaged at the tender age of 10, when her uncle King Edward VII caused quite a scandal by abdicating the throne in order to marry a twice divorced American; Wallis Simpson; something unheard of in those days. The abdication caused King Edward’s brother and Elizabeth’s father, next in line to the throne to be crowned as King George VI resulting in Princess Elizabeth becoming the Heiress Presumptive, provided her parents did not beget a son.
Her parents however very wisely decided to bring up the Princess in a normal manner as possible and were determined not to spoil her with too much Royal opulence or shelter her from the realities of life. This was the time Britain was beginning to come to terms with the terrible losses sustained from the First World War while British society was in the midst of undergoing profound changes. Her parents nevertheless taught the future Queen to appreciate her privileges and also her duties and responsibilities. Whenever her parents; the Duke and Duchess had to undertake official visits out of the country Elizabeth was left in the capable hands of her nanny Clara Knight. This separation however enabled her to forge a very strong bond with her grand parents King George and Queen Mary who clearly became entranced by their mischievous granddaughter. By the age of 12, Princess Elizabeth had already distinguished herself as a gifted horsewoman and had in fact confided in her riding instructor that had she not been born to be Queen one day, she most probably would have lived a life of leisure in the countryside tending to her dogs and her horses. These childish remarks reveal her ardent desire to live in the country and lead a simple life; yet be ware of her royal duty and responsibility that is so uniquely characteristic of the Queen Elizabeth II we know and reigns today.
Elizabeth was only 13 when she met the then 18 year old Prince Philip, a third cousin of hers, fell in love and wanted to get married. But her father wanted her to be sure because it was the first time she had been in love. Prince Philip had also to renounce his title as the Prince of Greece and become a British citizen and adopt his uncle’s surname “Louis Mountbatten”.
It was just before their marriage he was named Duke of Edinburgh, although it wasn’t before 1957 he was named as Prince of the United Kingdom. Princess Elizabeth in the meantime started attending classes at the illustrious Eton College to learn constitutional history and was soon able to educate herself about the history of Europe; a subject that was very close to her heart. These idyllic days however ceased when in 1945 she resolved to support the war effort and joined the army and became a very capable leader.
After the war ended, Elizabeth was ready to assume her Royal responsibilities and became patron of many charities that involved children. Her marriage to Prince Philip in November 1947 was rapturously welcomed by the subjects and the nation was truly proud of their Royal family. The couple was in Kenya when the Princess was informed of her father’s death and she returned to England as Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II and ascended the throne on June 2, 1953. Not only is she the Queen of UK, but also of several countries including Australia, New Zealand and Canada.

Central Park-New York
Central Park is a public park in the center of Manhattan in New York City, United States. The park initially opened in 1857, on 843 acres (3.41 km2) of city-owned land. In 1858, Frederick Law Olmsted and Calvert Vaux won a design competition to improve and expand the park with a plan they entitled the Greensward Plan. Construction began the same year and was completed in 1873.
Designated a National Historic Landmark in 1963, the park is currently managed by the Central Park Conservancy under contract with the city government. The Conservancy is a nonprofit organization that contributes 85% of Central Park’s $37.4 million dollar annual budget, and employs 80% of the park’s maintenance staff.
La Tomatina 2011
La Tomatina 2011 Is ……
La Tomatina is a food fight festival held on the last Wednesday of August each year in the town of Bunol near to Valencia in Spain. Thousands upon thousands of people make their way from all corners of the world to fight in this ‘World’s Biggest Food Fight’ where more than one hundred metric tons of over-ripe tomatoes are thrown in the streets.
The week-long festival features music, parades, dancing, and fireworks. On the night before the tomato fight, participants of the festival compete in a paella cooking contest.
Anywhere from 20,000 to 40,000 people come to this huge tomato fight, greatly expanding Bunol’s normal 9,000 person population. There is limited accommodation for people who come to La Tomatina, so many people take the easier option of staying in nearby Valencia just 38km to Bunol by bus or train. In preparation for the dirty mess that will ensue, shopkeepers use huge plastic covers on their storefronts in order to protect them from the carnage.
What Happens at La Tomatina ….
At around 10 am, the first event of the Tomatina begins. Many trucks haul the bounty of tomatoes into the center of the town, Plaza del Pueblo. The tomatoes come from Extremadura, where they are less expensive. Technically the festival does not begin until one brave soul has climbed to the top of a two-story high, greased-up wooden pole and reached the coveted ham at the top. In practice this process takes a long time and the festival starts despite no one reaching the meaty prize. The signal for the beginning of the fight is firing of water cannons, and the chaos begins. Once it begins, the battle is generally every man for himself.
Those who partake in this event are strongly encouraged to wear protective safety goggles and gloves. In addition, they must squish the tomatoes before throwing for safety precautions. Another rule is that no one is allowed to bring into this fight anything that may provoke someone into a more serious brawl, such as a glass bottle. Although it is forbidden to tear someone else’s clothing, the crowd tends to ignore this and invariably will rip the shirt of any clothed person, man or woman.
After exactly one hour, the fighting ends when the water cannons are fired once more to signal the end. At this point, no more tomatoes can be thrown. The cleaning process involves the use of fire trucks to spray down the streets, with water provided from a Roman aqueduct. The authorities seem more concerned with cleaning the town than cleaning the visitors, so some people find water at the Bunol River to wash themselves, although some kind residents will hose passers-by down. Once the tomato pulp is flushed, the ground is clean due to the acidity of the tomato.
First pictures as the World Trade Centre rises from the ruins!
Freedom Tower is the original tower planned for the site and is supposedly going to be the tallest building in the world according to it’s architects Skidmore, Owings and Merril (SOM). Three more towers were then added to the site designed by Norman Foster, Richard Rogers, Fumihiko Maki. The order of the towers are from left to right as follows: SOM tower 1, Foster tower 2, Rogers tower 3, and Maki tower 4. The designs are breathtaking and I am very excited to see how this grand center of architecture comes about. Of course each building has the safest building technology available such as separate staircases for firefighters in case of an emergency. I think I will let these designs speak for themselves!
