eGamer was designed with video game blogs in mind, however, it can certainly be adapted to any niche. This theme contains advanced features, including a custom author review system, video embedding (from video sites such as youtube), thumbnail resizing, and more. eGamer also gives users control over many of the themes functions, making the banner ads, recent reviews section, recent video section, popular/random articles section, and post-page thumbnails optional. You can also choose between the default magazine style layout and a more basic blog style design.Live Demo Click Here

I wanted to create a theme that displayed it’s content in a traditional way (similar to Basic), but with a bit more pizzazz! I tried to keep the structure clear and organized, while still maintaining a unique style. CherryTruffle is great for personal blogs and business blogs alike, and for anyone looking to give their blog a fresh and unique appearance.Live Demo Click Here

ePhoto was created for those looking to turn their blog into a photo gallery. While the theme was created with photographers in mind, it can certainly be used to display any type of digital imagery. While the main content of the theme is image based, I have also added the ability to create a separate blog page where normal blog posts can be integrated alongside your photos.Live Demo Click here

In last post with title "Get Backlink From My Dofollow Blog". i was talk about backlink.

May be i should review for this post.
What is backlink?
Put simply, a backlink is a link from another webpage, 'back' to your page. The most valuable type of links are single inbound links, that is, a third party page has linked to your page, and you do NOT link back.An example of this might be a post to your blog that another blogger likes, and links to for their own readers to enjoy.
More backlink = Top position on search engine.
Google tries to put the most relevant pages at the top of its search results for any given search. By identifying inbound links, it uses these like a voting system to identify the most relevant pages on the assumption that the most linked to page will have the best content. Also, if a very popular site links to the page, then this is even more valuable, as a site with a lot of traffic or a high PR, is considered a 'better judge of character'... shall we say
Backlink is very important for our blog.Couse Pagerank is based on how much we have a backlink to our blog. I made simple form for check your backlink here. Just type and see the result.

Originally created to help the blogging community reduce the number of inserted links into a "comment" area of a blog page, the attribute is typically standard in blog comments. It helps overwhelmed webmasters disallow spammers from gaining any kind of advantage by inserting an unwanted link on a popular page.

Be great, in any case, really difficult things. especially for them, people who have mental dwarf, wishy washy in life. Doubt in stride, hesitant to take decisions.
Believe we can be great, just we often lose before the battle . Always in the mindset we say that "can not "," too high"," too Utopis" why?
Indeed, this is purely a problem of thinking that we believe. be great in any sense, not a matter of justice Allah claim, but a matter of determining our own destiny. Allah has asserted that destiny can be changed if we want to change.
That the gods will not change the fate of a nation before the change of their own fate. This means that the changes we do pure is change our own life history. Thus, Take A step to change your destiny.Move, so that the creator of the highway and natural move your life.
Belive :A big journey always comes from small steps.
If you was decide to be a blogger. Learning everything about blogging. Dont thinks about result from the begin. But think how to be expert in blogging. Soonly you will have a popularity, derive money comes to you. You just need to be focus. Constan and never give up.
We can take a name like cosaaranda the master seo of indonesia, Joko susilo the best seller ebook from indonesia. they not automaticly be a great but pass a big journey and start with small steps.

Focus is the Key For Success in Internet business. Do you agree?
One book with the title "Kiat Sukses Jadi Jutawan Lewat Internet" gave inspire to me to active as blogger again. After a long time resign from the blogsphere, i found new spirit from that book.
The sentences is "90% new blogger die in 4 month becouse the mistake of thought. Blogger commonly thought can get much money as easy as just sit on the chair for 2 hours and open they notebook. After that much money transfered to they bank account.
So when they found the fact that is not easy just like what they think, they down and go out from they dreaming to be success. look for another way or may be another job.And was happen to me.
Now i relized that is a big mistakes that makes me not grow up as success man.We should try to evaluate our journey as a blogger.Repair the mistakes and improve our knowledge.
We should not forget that there is no man success without an effort. As like as conventional business, internet business also need great effort.
Američka glumica Liv Tajler izašla je na ručak i verovatno se nije nadala da će imati kratki obračun na ulici. Međutim, nakon što je prisustvovala sceni u kojoj je žena vikala na dete koje plače u kolicima, nije mogla samo da okrene glavu, prenosi "Dejli Mejl". Glumica iz "Lord of The Rings", koja ima četvorogodišnjeg sina Mila, ušla je u "verbalni rat" sa nepoznatom ženom na Santa Monika bulevaru u Los Anđelesu. Tokom svađe, u kojoj je bilo i upiranja prstima i ljutitih izraza lica, Liv je prišla ženi i kolicima i proverila kako je mala devojčica, pre nego što je zapretila da će pozvati policiju. To očiglednio nije odgovaralo starijoj ženi, koja je detetu najverovatnije baka ili dadilja. Nakon što je rekla svoje, Liv je nastavila svojim putem, dok je žena nastavila da viče na Liv Tajler. Reakcija Liv Tajler ne bi trebalo da bude iznenađenje, s obzirom na to da je ona uključena u brigu o deci i aktivni je član Humanitarnog fonda Ujedinjenih nacija za decu.

Ukoliko vam je zaista stalo da dobijete posao, obucite se reprezentativno i u skladu s vrstom posla
za koji ste konkurisali. Evo par saveta kako da ostavite dobar utisak na poslovnom intervjuu.
Pažljivo isplanirajte šta ćete obući na razgovor za posao jer će, budite sigurne, poslodavac osim CV-ja koji mu priložite, procenjivati i vaš izgled.
Zakopčajte sve dugmiće
Košulja i blejzer su nepogrešiva kombinacija kada idete na razgovor za posao. Izaberite košulju koja nema suvišne detalje, karnere ili čipku, već one koje su klasičnog kroja. I naravno, potrudite se da od grudi prema vratu što više dugmića bude zakopčano. Blejzer tamnije nijanse, koji vam stoji kao da ste u njemu rođeni, idealan je za ovakvu priliku. To je komad garderobe koji na prvi pogled o vama govori da ste pouzdana, samostalna i samosvesna osoba.
Ne pokazujte kolena
Svejedno je da li ćete obući pantalone ili suknju, ali i u ovom slučaju izaberite klasičnije modele. Ako ste se odlučili za suknju, povedite računa o tome da nije prekratka. Jedan santimetar iznad kolena je najkraće što možete sebi da dozvolite. Dobro krojena haljina strogih linija sa dodatkom marame ili ešarpe takođe je dobar izbor za poslovni intervju, ali, takođe, ne sme biti previše kratka.
Držite se pastelnih tonova
Kad je o šminci reč, ne dozvolite sebi da na razgovor dođete sa previše pudera ili prenaglašenom senkom, rumenilom i vrištećom nijansom ruža. Držite se pastelnih tonova i diskretno se našminkajte. O frizuri ne treba trošiti previše reči, treba samo da bude uredna. Niko vam neće zameriti ako ste ofarbani, dokle god ta nijansa ne prelazi granice pristojnosti i dobrog ukusa. Izbegavajte jež fizure ili kreacije koje se odobijaju upotrebom trimera.
Diskretno je ključna reč
Ukoliko želite da ostavite utisak ozbiljne osobe, posebno se potrudite oko detalja. Nakit bi trebalo da bude jedva primetan. Pirsing ostavite kod kuće, na uši ne stavljajte više od po jedne minđuše, a glomazne ogrlice, narukvice i prstenje ostavite za večernji izlazak.
Zaboravite na „platforme“
Odaberite čarape u boji kože, bez dodatnih šara i dezena. Obratite pažnju na tašnu koja bi trebalo da je elegantna, od materijala koji ne deluje jeftino, niti pohabano. Sandale i cipele u jarkim bojama, sa visokom petom ili platformom, ne dolaze u obzir, jer ne idete u diskoteku ili na modnu reviju. Preporučena visina pete je četiri santimetra, a obuća bi trebalo da bude zatvorena i tamnijih boja.

Who are our female film legends these days? Rare are the sultry, dangerous, and highly individualistic Hollywood goddesses who were so prevalent in the 1930s and 1940s.
Of these few exceptions, one thinks right away of Ms. Angelina Jolie. Ever since about 2004 — when she started crafting a new and revolutionary persona out of her prior story line as an eccentric ingenue, a story line that had been erratic and filled with missteps — she has resonated in a way no other modern female star has managed.
Yes, she is conventionally beautiful: Bosomy and wasp-waisted, with that curtain of hair and those crazy pillowy lips, she is an obvious male sex fantasy. But more suggestively, polls show that her appeal and magnetism play at least as powerfully in the fantasy life of females.
Women admire Angelina Jolie, but that would hardly stop the presses. Polls also show that if women — not just lesbian and bisexual women but straight women — had to choose a female lover, they would want to sleep with Angelina Jolie. In other words, women both identify with her and desire her.
There's something more than a simply physical response. Her persona hits an unprecedented level of global resonance — and makes women want to be with her and be her at the same time — because she has created a life narrative that is not just personal. Rather, it is archetypal. And the archetype is one that really, for the first time in modern culture, brings together almost every aspect of female empowerment and liberation.
Consider how patriarchal civilization has managed to keep women in hand for all these millennia. Among other methods of social control, women are almost always given a series of either-or choices. The deal is usually that they may realize one aspect of their personality but at the expense of many others. And the deal is usually that if they choose "too much," a terrible punishment one way or another awaits them.
So you can be respected as a symbol of goodness (Florence Nightingale, Mother Teresa) but not, obviously, be seen as sexual. You can have a hot sex life (Marlene Dietrich) but not at the same time be seen as a symbol of goodness. You can't get away with it. (Somehow, when an icon who was at once both a sexual being and engaged in good deeds died in a violent accident — Princess Di, of course —
the story had a kind of terrible narrative inevitability.) You can take a lover — and even be a home wrecker — but not claim the hope of being seen as a good mom (Madame Bovary, Elizabeth Taylor). You can't get away with it. You can have money, fame, and a dazzling career, but you must surely be depressed, drug addicted, lonely, or self-destructive
(Jacqueline Susann, Marilyn Monroe). You can't get away with it.The magic of Jolie's self-presentation? She makes the claim, with her life and actions, that, indeed, you can get away with it. All of it. Against every Western convention, she has managed to draw together all of these kinds of female liberation and empowerment. And her gestures determinedly transgress social boundaries — boundaries of convention, race, class, and gender — giving many of us a vicarious thrill.
Remember how, for the first few years of Jolie's debut in the media spotlight, she kept hitting off-key notes? She emerged as an edgy starlet in such films as Girl, Interrupted and Hackers,
then broke through into mass-market consciousness with her turn as cartoony superheroine Lara Croft. And with her success in that role, she previewed aspects of the persona that would take her to global icon: sexy and daring, confrontational and independent...

I ovo leto Džoni Dep provodi na privatnom ostrvu u Karipskom moru, jedinom mestu, kako je ispričao novinaru „Veniti fera“, gde oseća apsolutnu slobodu i gde može da radi šta god mu je volja, pa i da hrani ajkule viršlama.
Novcem ne mogu da kupim sreću, ali mogu jahtu, kojom ću onda lako da otplovim na mesto gde sam srećan. Ovako je Džoni Dep, u jednoj rečenici, objasnio novinaru „Veniti Fera“ svoju životnu filozofiju, dok ga je vodio u razgledanje privatnog ostrva u Karipskom moru. Za ovo malo ostrvo, površine svega 45 ari, poznati holivudski glumac platio je 3,6 milona dolara. On ne smatra da je to visoka cena i kaže da je tim novcem kupio slobodu i pronašao utočište za svoju porodicu, suprugu Vanesu Paradi, ćerku Lili Rouz i sina Džeka.- U životu nisam video mesto koje je čistije i lepše - kaže Dep. - Ovde možeš da osetiš kako ti puls usporava.
Ovo mesto ti daje osećaj apsolutne slobode čim kročiš na njega. Poseduje nešto što se teško nalazi – jednostavnost.Glumac, koga u holivudskom svetu smatraju ekscentrikom, jer se uporno ograđuje od slave koja ga prati, kaže da se umorio od toga da u restorane ulazi kroz kuhinju, a u hotele kroz garažu i da gde god se pojavi svi bulje u njega. - Volim svoj posao, ali mi definitivno smeta tolika medijska pompa. Zato, kad god se osetim isfrustriranim zbog pritiska koji stvara titula „poznatog lika“, spakujem se i dođem na ostrvo.
Ovde mogu da se povučem i nestanem.Na ostrvu postoji šest velikih plaža, koje je Dep nazvao po imenima članova svoje porodice, a jednu po svom velikom prijatelju i glumačkom mentoru Marlonu Brandu. - Od Branda sam naučio važne lekcije tokom dve decenije karijere u Holivudu. Stalno mi je govorio: Tvoj život ni za koga ne treba da bude zabava - seća se Dep. – Ni dan-danas, mene ne zanima ko je „in“, a ko nije, ko se s kim viđa. Ne želim da znam bilo šta o tome. Ne želi da komentariše svoju reputaciju seks simbola, iako je veoma ponosan na filmove „Doni Brasko“, „Don Huan de Marko“, „Čokolada“ i „Pirati sa Kariba“ (na slici gore), zbog kojih ga žene širom sveta obožavaju.

Mršavo telo i ispijeno lice više nisu u modi, tvrdi Aleksandra Šulman, urednica britanskog izdanja časopisa "Vog" u protestnom pismu modnim kreatorima.
Aleksandra Šulman, koja važi za jednog od najvećih gurua među modnim stilistima, traži da se prekine sa dizajniranjem odevnih predmeta koje mogu da nose samo izrazito mršave žene.
Ona u svom pismu otkriva da su modni časopisi počeli da koriste fotošop kako bi manekenke učinili "debljim". Retuširanjem fotografija popunjavaju se upali obrazi, dodaju mišići, zaobljuju ruke, noge i stomak.
Mršave manekenke se više nikome ne dopadaju, tvrdi Šulmanova, svrstavajući se očigledno na stranu udruženjenja koja godinama vode bitku protiv anoreksije.
Njeno pismo, upućeno svim velikim modnim kućama kao što su Versaće, Džon Galijano, Dolče i Gabana, Šanel, Kristijan Dior i Prada, nije bilo namenjeno javnosti, ali ga je neko prosledio listu "Tajms", koji mu je posvetio dve pune strane.
"Odeća koju nam šalju modne kuće je sve manja", ističe Šulmanova u pismu.
"Došli smo do tačke u kojoj i najčuvenije manekenke poput Naomi Kembel, Linde Evanđeliste, pa čak i najmršavija među njima, Kejt Mos, ne uspevaju da u nju uđu. Prinuđeni smo da angažujemo manekenke bez grudi i bedara, bez imalo ženstvenosti i da od fotografa tražimo da retuširaju slike kako bi modeli izgledali popunjeniji", jada se Šulmanova.
Aleksandra Šulman, koja važi za jednog od najvećih gurua među modnim stilistima, traži da se prekine sa dizajniranjem odevnih predmeta koje mogu da nose samo izrazito mršave žene.
Ona u svom pismu otkriva da su modni časopisi počeli da koriste fotošop kako bi manekenke učinili "debljim". Retuširanjem fotografija popunjavaju se upali obrazi, dodaju mišići, zaobljuju ruke, noge i stomak.

JK Rowling and her publisher are being sued for £500million for allegedly copying Harry Potter from an earlier children's book, also by an English writer.
Adrian Jacobs's book Willy The Wizard - also about a child discovering he has magical powers - was published in 1987, ten years before the first in the Harry Potter series and three years before Miss Rowling says she came up with her idea.
He allegedly sent the manuscript to Christopher Little, the literary agent at Bloomsbury Publishing who went on to represent Miss Rowling, but it was rejected.
Instead his book was published by a smaller company under the title The Adventures Of Willy The Wizard No 1: Livid Land.
Mr Jacobs, who lost all his money in a stock market crash in 1991, died in 1997, so did not live to see the Harry Potter books' success.
But his estate - which includes his son and grandson - now claims Miss Rowling's fourth book, Harry Potter And The Goblet Of Fire, was plagiarised.
In both books, the boy wizard competes in a magic contest...

No matter what your hair woe—frizz, flatness, gray roots, oiliness, or dandruff—it only takes five simple moves to get gorgeous hair.
By Abbie Kozolchyk
FRIZZY HAIR
Frizz is as common as humidity in August. But with these tips, it doesn't have to be.
1. STAY HYDRATED. Frizz occurs when dry hair absorbs water from the air, but cream-based moisturizing shampoo and conditioner can prevent it—just be sure to rinse well so hair doesn't look dull or greasy. And lather up only a few times a week: "The natural oils that accumulate in the meantime are good frizz-fighters," says hairstylist Nathaniel Hawkins.
2. DRY THE RIGHT WAY. To keep waves smooth, apply styling lotion to damp hair, then let it air-dry—and resist the urge to tousle. "The more you put your hands through it, the more likely you are to create frizz," says hairstylist Garren. To make straight hair sleek, point the dryer toward the ends— "going against the grain, even a little, can cause frizz," he says. And keep blow-drying until every bit of dampness is gone.
3. COAT WITH CAUTION. Use silicone drops or spray to combat frizz, but don't overdose. Apply a drop or spritz to your palms first, then rub them together and pat them over frizz, starting at the ends and working toward the crown (you can always add more later).
4. OIL WELL. To further ward off frizz, give your hair a twice-weekly oil treatment (pros like jojoba oil). Work about a tablespoon through dry hair, first with your hands, then with a synthetic-bristle paddle brush (boar bristles would just soak up the oil). Leave it on for as long as possible before shampooing as usual; even five to ten minutes helps.
5. CUT AND COLOR CORRECTLY. Avoid overlayering, which makes short pieces stick out and get fuzzy. If you have coarse or curly hair, stay away from razor cuts, as they rough up the cuticle and exacerbate frizz. By contrast, nearly blunt cuts can help weigh down frizz. As for color, steer clear of a full head of highlights or a solid blonde: "Bleaching deteriorates the outer layer of the hair, making it coarser and frizzier," says Hawkins.

FLATNESS
Sleek and chic is all well and good, but hair that's so flat it reveals your skull's contours is another matter. Here's how to turn up the volume.
1. LAYER IN MODERATION. Keep hair close to one length. "When you overlayer it—which people mistakenly do in an attempt to create volume—you risk taking away too much bulk and actually decreasing the volume," explains Hawkins, who thinks "an angled or graduated bob that's lightly layered works beautifully."
2. COLOR SMART. Lightening your base color one or two shades "gives the look of more volume," says colorist Rita Hazan of the Rita Hazan Salon in New York City. (Glazes and semipermanent dye "won't do the trick because they are stains, which actually smooth the hair even more," she says.) For women who don't want to change their color, consider using dye for texture—it ruffles the cuticle just enough to create body. In the hands of a skilled colorist, the ensuing damage is minimal—but it's still damage, so try this strategy only a few times a year to see how your hair responds.
3. REVERSE IT. Condition your hair before you shampoo, suggests Hawkins. "You'll still get the moisture and elasticity, but you'll wash out any residue that can weigh down fine hair." On days when hair is really dirty, he recommends shampooing, conditioning, and then shampooing again.
4. DRY WITH CARE. Creating volume in fine hair is like making a soufflé—overwork it and the whole thing falls flat. When blow-drying, work on large sections, holding the nozzle a few inches from the hair and keeping it moving.
5. RAISE IT UP. To boost volume once the hair is dry, lift three-inch sections and allow them to drop through a mist of medium-hold hair spray, says hairstylist Jimmy Paul, "then spray your entire head with dry shampoo and scrunch; the result is hair with lift and a lovely, seemingly no-product finish." For those who hate hair spray, apply mousse to a vent brush and then to damp hair—it won't squeeze the air out of the mousse. "Coat the brush with mousse and run it through one side of your hair, then refuel and do the other side," Hawkins says.

Until the publication of the "love letters" of Albert Einstein and his first wife, Mileva Maric, the life of Mileva was little more than a footnote in the outsized biography of her famous husband. In the last two decades, newly discovered documents have offered tantalizing glimpses of a brilliant and ambitious woman who shared her husband's interest in science. Different interpretations of the evidence, however, have produced bitter debate.Traditionally, Einstein has been portrayed as something of a scientific saint. There are now letters that indicate that Albert treated his wife and sons shabbily, raising the suspicion that he viewed Mileva's aspirations with equal disregard. A small coterie of researchers began to ask whether, in fact, Mileva had helped author Einstein's most famous papers—suggestions that were greeted with outrage by the scientific establishment. While there is little doubt that Mileva served as a sounding board and occasional assistant to her husband, there is no evidence to suggest that she made substantive contributions to his work. Rather, as the jigsaw puzzle that was Mileva's life is pieced together, an image emerges of a young woman whose great scientific promise ran up against the formidable institutional and social barriers that kept all but the most resilient women, at the turn of the twentieth century, at the margins of science or out of the lab entirely. In the following brief investigation of the facts, Mileva's life story is divided into three periods, each defined by her changing relationship with Albert. The epilogue reviews the events leading to her rediscovery in the late 1980s.

They have plenty in common. Well OK, then, they both shave their legs and both are worth a fortune.
So it is perhaps not too surprising that departing Manchester United star Cristiano Ronaldo and socialite Paris Hilton are reportedly enjoying the first flushes of romance.
The perma-tanned Portuguese winger has been celebrating news that he has been snapped up by Real Madrid for the eye-watering sum of £80 million by hitting the town in Los Angeles with the American party queen.

Starring in fashion spreads is nothing new to Heidi Klum, but with the June issue of German Vogue she’s taking her supermodel status to new levels. In a special 140-page spread entitled “Heidi by Vogue,” the Project Runway host got the chance take on the role of guest-editor. And you couldn’t find a more qualified candidate, considering that the issue is all about her. In addition to collaborating with photographers, hair stylists, makeup artists and the magazine’s regular editor, Heidi dazzles in photo spreads that range from classic to avant-garde and shares the life, style and career secrets. As for which section she loved most, Heidi will only say, “I love all the stories so much that I don’t favor any of them.” But she does gush to PEOPLE.com of the experience, “I grew up reading German Vogue and was really excited when they came to me with the idea for the ‘Heidi by VOGUE’ issue. It was a thrill working with the team of photographers, hair stylists, makeup artists and editors. We shot the entire issue in 1 week — it was a group effort!” And while it doesn’t look like she’ll be quitting her multitude of day jobs just yet, she does tell PEOPLE.com that “I would love the opportunity to be involved in a magazine like this again. I’m always up for a challenge!” Click here to check out exclusive behind-the-scenes footage of Heidi at work on the project.

Kada sam imala, recimo, 16 godina, naslucivala sam cemu sluzi maskara. Posto sam smedja, skoro plava i plavi su mi preci sa mamine strane, uvek sam se divila jakim crnim obrvama pravih rasnih crnki. Naravno, odmah bi mi pogled isao na dole i tu bih verovatno vec pocela da je, ili njih, zalim zbog stalnih depilacija nogu, ruku i nausnica. Plavuse su sa te strane onako nas privilegovane, ali nam se obrve ne vide, a trepavice kao da nemamo. Maskara je verovatno prvo sto sam pocela da koristim. Ne secam se marke, ali mislim da je bila slovenacka, jer u vreme SFRJ Slovenija je imala najbolju kozmetiku. Danas, koristim mleko za suvu kozu i kremu za prve borice oke ociju, bas njihovu. Kvalitet ostao kvalitet.
Lak za nokte je sledece cega sam se docepala. Ja nekako nisam pripadala onim devojcicama koje mame feniraju ili im nokte lakiraju od cetvrte godine zivota. Mene je moja dva puta nasminkala cisto da vidi kaku cu jednog dana da izgledam....a onda smo se svi u kuci dugo smejali. Toliko o maminom doprinosu mom buducem make-up-u. Priznajem da je kasnije, pa do dana danasnjeg, uvek bila tu da mi da ostru kritiku tipa umorno izgledas, los karmin, ne stoji ti to ili da retko kaze, lepa ti frizura, delujes bas odmorno. Ostra kritika mi je potrebna i to volim, samo sto se tice majke, naravno! Da kritike nije, a da je sminka bila dostupnija, verovatno bih danas izgledala kao devojke sto danas izgledaju sa 20 godina - cheap prenasminkane i umorne od sinocnog ludog provoda u obliznjoj kafani...
No, od te svoje 16, kada sam otkrila i brushalter, mada ga mnogo kasnije upotrebila, i od te maskare i laka na detaljno sredjenim savrsenim dugim noktima (kupicu ja tu masinu za pranje sudova,bice to savrseno opet :), otkrila sam i druge detalje. Senke za oci, tirkizne, rozikaste, plave...Kod nane u Nemackoj kupovala i isprobavala... i sve dobre, jako dobre, danas nema takvih. Bile su marka do deset maraka, ali su i marke i kvalitet nesto znacili tada.
THICK FOUNDATION
"Heavy makeup is a one-way ticket to looking older than you actually are," says makeup artist Chrisanne Davis. Choose a sheer foundation or tinted moisturizer (such as Laura Mercier Tinted Moisturizer SPF 20), and after you apply it, press a damp makeup sponge into areas where you have wrinkles to soak up any excess. While the less-is-more maxim may seem counterintuitive, "the more skin you can see, the better," says makeup artist Sandy Linter. "As long as it is well-hydrated, fresh skin looks much more youthful than an obviously covered complexion."

"As long as it is well-hydrated, fresh skin looks much more youthful than an obviously covered complexion."
BASE THAT'S TOO LIGHT
Foundation that's paler than your natural skin tone exaggerates fine lines. "Even if you have ivory skin, you need to go a little bit warmer as you get older," says Linter. Switch to a hue that's one or two shades darker and has luminescent particles, such as Giorgio Armani Luminous Silk: "A light-reflective formula makes the skin look like it's glowing," says Davis.
HEAVY CONCEALER ON DARK CIRCLES
The skin under the eyes gets thinner as we age, making thick cover-up look like concrete. Keep it light (we like Lancôme Effacernes Waterproof Protective Undereye Concealer), and apply it with a brush. "The brush distributes the color more evenly," says Linter. And put it only on dark areas, not under the entire eye.
FACE POWDER ON TOP OF LINES
Powder is fine for reducing shine on the nose and the chin, but on other parts of the face it exaggerates wrinkles and can make skin look too dry, says Linter. The only time Linter dusts powder on clients over 40 is when she knows they're being professionally photographed (a loose translucent formula does help cut glare), but even then, one unbreakable rule still applies: Avoid the eye area completely.

BLUSH ON THE APPLES OF THE CHEEKS
It draws attention to sagging skin. Instead, apply color on the highest point on your cheekbones, not too close to the nose, and lift it upward with a brush that's large enough to cover the whole cheekbone. Skip the drama queen shades, too: "Colors like wine and cinnamon will only make you look gaunt if you're thin and clownish if you're not," says Linter. "A neutral rose color flatters all skin tones and really brightens things up." (We like Nars Blush in Mata Hari.)

Apparently Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt are planning to finally tie the knot to put an end to all the split rumors at the end of the summer. Brad and Angelina want their children to be a big part of the celebration that will most probably take place in New Orleans.
A close friend of the pair said: “Usually it’s Brad who wants to talk marriage. But this time it was Angie. An aide sent them all the Press clippings about their ‘relationship problems’ and Angelina said it was probably best if they married to put an end to the stories. Brad’s face lit up – he was thrilled.”The couple has been together to four years and they have six children (Maddox, Pax, Zahara, Shiloh and twins Vivienne and Knox).

1. The Uplifter This woman's favorite word: "Yes." You could tell her you're trading your six-figure income for a career in offtrack betting, and she'd barely pause before yelping "Go for it!" Don't you need someone who looks past the love handles to notice the extraordinarily gorgeous you?
2. The Travel Buddy When the hotel in St. Lucia is a bust, one characteristic becomes all-important: flexibility. This agreeable companion need not be the girl you traded pinkie swears with on the playground; it's enough that she's comfortable with quiet (between gabfests) and is a teensy bit mischievous (as in tequila after midnight). 
3. The Truth Teller Intent is what separates the constructive from the abusive. Once you've established that the hard news is spoken in love (not in jealousy or malice), you'd be smart to seek out this woman's perspective.
4. The Girl Who Just Wants to Have Fun One Saturday a pal and I — and yes, we're both over age 12 — pored over every glitter lip gloss in a drugstore aisle for an entire 45 minutes. Forget the crisis download (for that, see the Uplifter); this partnership is about spontaneous good times.
5. The Unlikely Friend "Each friend represents a world in us, a world possibly not born until they arrive," Anaïs Nin wrote. My friends — some twice my age, others half, some rich, others homeless, some black like me, others Korean, Mexican, Caucasian — have added richness to my life that only variety can bring.

We play hard to get — and we know it. Sometimes, I just act like they have no chance, even though I might like them. I openly flirt with other girls in front of them, and talk about how hot other girls are in front of them. I make myself look really picky and difficult to get to. Then, I get really tender and give all of my attention to this girl that thought she had no chance.Sex in the shower is overrated. I once tried this, but the entire time I was trying to contort my body so that I could get everything inserted correctly. That "up against the wall" variation is tougher than it sounds. The entire shower apparatus is so slippery, and then you have soap all over the place. It's a danger zone. Plus, I do my best to keep my bathroom clean, but I don't think I'd ever want to have sex anywhere near something called "mildew".
First Lady Michelle Obama joins husband President Barack Obama, French First Lady Carla Bruni-Sarkozy and French President Nicolas Sarkozy at the Caen Prefecture on Saturday (June 6) in Caen, France. The two couples attended the commemorations marking the 65th anniversary of the June 6, 1944 allied landings in Normandy, northwestern France.
“As we face down the hardships and struggles of our time and arrive at that hour for which we were born,” Mr. Obama said during a solemn tribute. “We cannot help but draw strength from those moments in history when the best among us were somehow able to swallow their fears and secure a beachhead on an unforgiving shore.”

This week we had the great Hamlet bout. Could Jude Law be as good in the role as David Tennant was in last year's Royal Shakespeare Company production? And the news from the West End ringside, so far as I'm concerned, is that it's a squeaker - and that Mr Law is just ahead on points.
That said, the Wyndham's production is not a patch on the RSC show in several other respects. The company has been strangely miscast. Its Claudius, Ophelia, Laertes, Horatio, Gertrude and ghost are all disappointing. Ron Cook's Polonius is an almost embarrassingly bad stab at the part. He is more like a subservient waiter than a fruity old courtier.
