Some dogs love dressing up, and some people like dressing their "best friends" to look like humans. Dog clothes are an extension of their love for them, treating them like members of the family. But why do dog lovers buy dog clothes? - I asked my customers and got the following answers: 1. Comfort for my dogs during winter 2. Sometimes we think out dog is human 3. I like to dress my dog up so people will make a fuss over her There are, however, real reasons to consider using dog apparel as well. Apart from our own desire to dress our dogs in human clothing, there are often practical reasons to do so. Dogs that have had medical treatments that result in the loss of fur will often need at least some...

In a recent article (What is The Ultimate Lifestyle), I talked about the 8 core components that define "The Ultimate Lifestyle."The first component was income streams, and the reason it was listed as #1 is because if you want to live the ultimate lifestyle (as you define it), you must:- Have total control over your time (i.e. you're your own boss, not an employee)- Have numerous income streams flowing, with as many of them as possible being "passive" or requiring minimal time and effort from you. To truly live the ultimate lifestyle, you must have income that flows whether you "show up for work" or not. These income streams are the "fuel" that drives The Ultimate Lifestyle.In...

Travel time is upon us. When we start packing up the items we want to take, we have to be sure to think about the dogs. Our dogs are part of the family and go with us.Just like children, dogs should be safely restrained in a vehicle while traveling. We found a leash that has one end that clicks in to the seatbelt. The other end has the usual clip and fastens to the harness. We prefer a harness to using the collars for riding. If there are any sudden stops, the dogs are safely restrained without risk of damage to their necks.If you travel in an SUV or station wagon, you can get barrier screens to put between the dogs and the passenger seats of the vehicle. These help to keep the canine family...

Good feng shui often requires making wise decisions based on your specific circumstances, rather than blinding following an ideal rule. The feng shui rule for storing things under your bed is "don't do it." But for those who live in small homes every inch of possible storage space is precious. If you are faced with cluttering up some other area of your home with stuff that otherwise might be put under the bed, how do you decide what to do? My preference as a feng shui professional is to keep the more visible, frequently used areas of the home uncluttered. If that means storing some things under the bed, so be it, as long as it is done thoughtfully and appropriately. There are two reasons why your...

The world has changed a lot in the past century. Thanks to the invention of airplanes and high-speed trains, today's world is wide open to travel. In a day's time, we can travel to the other side of the world without using our entire life's savings. We also have a number of options open to us to help us plan our travels, and choosing wisely can help save time and money.1. Travel Agents. Many people have the misconception that using a travel agent entails paying a fee. Nonsense. In actuality, most travel agents receive commissions from the vendors (airlines, hotels, tour agencies); they are the ones paying the fee, not you. A travel agent has access to deals that often are not available anywhere else...

Online shopping is no longer new to you. The onset of high speed Internet services mingled with the heightening consumer confidence in shopping online has dramatically led to the popularity of this phenomenon. Furthermore, the fame brought about by the adamant distribution of dollar stores in the online market heightens your chance of shopping for inexpensive merchandise.There are relatively a thousand reasons why you as the consumer want to stay within the confines of your home to do your shopping. The skyrocketing cost of gasoline counts as one factor. When you use your car to travel from one store to another, you use a lot of gas. The same applies when you go to a shopping mall or hardware store...

Whatever you do, don't leave behind any essentials of an African safari tour... And that is the first commandment. The least thing you want to know once you get on board is that you have left a vital gear behind. Safari by nature, requires a number of essentials that are literally helpful while you are on your travel. On the other hand, you may need to drop some of non-essential things since they will only add up to your luggage weight. Remember, pleasure of the safari adventure is not measured by the number of useless gears that you have with you (which in the end makes you uncomfortable because of weight) but by the comfort of having gears that are truly needed while on trek. One of the most...

Mount Whitney or Bust - My first camping trip in the Sierra - In 1952 I was 19 and had previously made only one overnight backpack camping trip to North Fork campground in Santa Anita Canyon with the Boy Scouts. I did have a little hiking experience under my belt and had hiked Mt. Wilson and a couple of other local peaks, but I was certainly not in great condition or ready for what the next couple of days would bring. But I was young. We met up, my friends from PCC -- Peter Stephens, John Way, Ken Nichols -- and myself and left Pasadena about 8 p.m. Friday evening in Peter's old paneled truck. Eventually Mojave with its infamous Whites Restaurant appeared and we stopped for dinner. About 11:30 p.m...

Few can resist the enjoyment and excitement of river rafting. Taking some care and precautions while preparing for a rafting vacation could be what it takes to make it the best vacation ever for your whole family. Safety is the one most important thing to consider while taking a rafting holiday. Rafting companies have an established set of safety measure that they will follow and teach you about. But when you decide to go rafting by yourself then you have to pay attention to these safety measures. First and foremost you should have a life jacket for each member of the family and you should insist that they keep it on. The white water currents prove dangerous even for good swimmers and so it is...

Once your choppers bike is ready, just look if it is in the top condition. You do not need to do bike maintenance on the side of the road in sub-freezing temperatures, so you can regularly do a thorough check to ensure that everything works perfectly. It is also best to go with the wider tires to avoid flats during winter. You can also try working little harder riding than to changing the flat in the cold. Fenders are worth their weight in gold when it comes to riding in New England. Do not even think of doing a winter or spring ride without them. Even in case there is no rain, snowmelt keeps the roads wet and fenders keep the water on the road off for you. It is always emphasized on fenders that...

Miami is a vibrant city teaming with Cuban culture, lush everglade wildlife and magnificent beaches bordering the Atlantic Coastline. Miami is the only major U.S. city to be founded and planned by a woman, Julia Tuttle, who hailed from Cleveland. Upon her father's death in 1891, she took over his citrus plantation along the Miami River. Miami is a thriving tourist hub, offering Latin flavor and Art Deco surroundings. The city thrives on its cool and hip mystique and its nightclub scene is vibrant and happening. It is the second largest city in Florida behind Jacksonville, and the state's proximity to Mexico and the Caribbean makes for an eclectic melting pot of Latin spice and excitement. Known as...

Most yoga students want to eat "healthy foods," but when it comes to actually going to the grocery store and stocking up the kitchen, confusion often sets in: What is healthy food anyway? High protein? Low fat? Sugar-free? THE BEST HEALTH ADVICE I've studied and experimented with nutrition extensively, and the more I learn, the more I've realized that healthy eating is often extremely simple. Intrinsically, we usually know what'll do us good and what'll do us harm, but we need to listen to our bodies and trust our instincts. Here's a simple guide to determining what you should and should not eat. Step 1: IMAGINE - close your eyes and hold the food in question in your hand (or at least imagine it...

So your jet ski is no longer the type that you want? Or probably, it has stayed long enough in your garage that you're starting to think about selling it?

It's the dream of many a musician to open up for either: their favorite band or the favorite band of their childhood. For many, the ultimate in true rock star status is to share a stage with the musicians who made you want to play music in the first place...to see you name in lights (or printed on a flyer, as the case may be) with the guys (or gals) whose music you listen to almost as much as (if not more than) your own. But is it really a good idea, as an unsigned artist, to open up for an act already known to the general public? Will you get anywhere near the recognition opening up for Pearl Jam in a large venue that you would at a local club playing with other unsigned bands? Will you fans dig...

The Chronicles of Riddick: Escape from Butcher Bay made its debut on the Xbox back in June of 2004. The video game was a prequel to the Pitch Black movie from 1999, and the game was a first person shooter (ala Halo, Halo 2, Halo 3). It revolved around the arrogant and fearless Richard Riddick (also known as Vin Diesel). The storyline in the game was fairly self-explanatory. Gamers were in control of the protagonist (Riddick) throughout the duration of the game, and he was captured by a bounty hunter named Johns. Furthermore, Riddick was sent to a maximum security prison known as Butcher Bay and attempts to escape the harsh prison. The gameplay made the game stand out more than other games in the...

Every year I swear, "We're never doing this again!" And, every year, exactly 12 months later, I find myself in the same bad situation: struggling to fit all the presents, all the suitcases and all the toys into the family van to make the trip to Grandma's for Christmas. This past Christmas was especially bad because now three out of my four kids are old enough to ski, so we took all their skiing gear too. We ended up with an extremely large duffle bag, two sleds, one suitcase and a cardboard box strapped to the roof. It was a wonder we ever hit 75 mph. Once we got on the highway, I noticed we weren't the only ones with too many people and too much stuff to fit it all in the car; lots of families...

At one time, only campers used large duffels also known as "soft trunks." They were the easiest to use for casual trips. They fit easily in the hold of a bus, and were the most convenient to store at the campsite. Then duffels caught on with college students and became the popular size for student tours. It didn't take long for everyone to figure out what the kids knew all along. Duffels were easy to pack, and easy to travel with. Now with the advent of weight restrictions on airline baggage, duffels have caught on with travelers of every age. They are lightweight luggage that will first and foremost usually keep you within the 50-pound maximum weight limit now required by most airlines. Secondly...

Watch the pros on Tour and notice how in-control they look at the finish position of the their golf swing. Why? Because they are! They are in perfect balance. Even the pro who might look a little "crooked" at the end of the swing has a balanced swing. Vijay, who is slightly bent to the side at the finish position of his driver, is still in perfect balance. How often do you think an amateur practices or even thinks about his or her finish position? Probably never. I would surmise that once contact has been made with the golf ball, most amateurs' thoughts shift to the ball flight rather than where our body is finishing the swing. Why is the finish position so important to a successful golf swing? And...
