Bridal Gowns
Things to consider when trying to decide on a bridal gown from a large selection of affordable wedding dresses, silk bridal gowns, beautiful destination dresses, flower girl dresses, bridesmaid dresses, and accessories.
One of the most important things to plan when you are organizing a wedding is getting the bridal gown just right. For most women - even if they've had a debutante gown (or a Quinceañera Gown), a prom dress and several bridesmaid dresses - the wedding dress or bridal gown is the dress of a lifetime. What factors should be considered when you are choosing your bridal gown? Our range of bridal gowns is extensive, so how do you narrow down your choices and find the dress of dresses?
Firstly: Fit. It is best if you select a bridal gown that fits the size you are. Nobody is really going to look at the tag to see the size you are, so if you have a size 12 body, you won't do yourself any favors by trying to squeeze into a size 8 bridal gown. While it is possible to lose weight in a hurry with certain diet pills, you will be more comfortable and save yourself a lot of hassle - and will look better - if you choose a gown that is the size you are.
Secondly: Body Shape. You want to emphasize your best features and draw attention away from your not-so good ones. A good bridal gown will do this. For example, if your tiny waist is your best feature, then a style with a nipped in waist (ballgown style, mermaid style or princess cut) will flatter this feature. However, if you would rather not emphasize your waist but concentrate on other features such as the cleavage or leg, then a straighter style such as a column or empire line will be more flattering - maybe with a plunging neckline or a side slit. A good rule of thumb when choosing a bridal gown is to expose your best features or have the material cut close to them, and to have fabric that's looser and more billowy around your least favorite body parts.
Thirdly: The Formality And Setting Of Your Wedding. The more formal the wedding, the grander the wedding dress. The ball gown style of dress is by far the most formal bridal gown. The other cuts (column, princess, mermaid and empire line) can be more informal. You should also consider where your wedding is held when deciding on some details of your wedding gown. A long, trailing train is probably not the best choice for a wedding held in a garden (grass can stain white fabric very easily), and a bridal gown featuring a very low neckline and a very high hemline probably won't go down too well in a traditional church wedding, particularly a more conservative church.
Fourthly: Time Of Year. A good old-fashioned June wedding means that you can choose a bridal gown that is a bit more revealing - the weather is likely to be hot, so if you go outdoors for your photos, you won't freeze. However, if you are planning on getting married at Christmas in a mountain location, something that is a bit warmer will be more appropriate (yes, you could turn the central heating up, but this means that your bridegroom and the rest of your family - who probably will have put something warm on underneath the tuxedos and suits - will swelter uncomfortably).
Lastly, Your Reception Plans. If your reception will involve a full sit-down dinner followed by dancing, make sure that your bridal gown is not so tight that eating and dancing will not be agony. You're going to have to dance alone and be photographed when you're not expecting it, so why be uncomfortable?

Winning Retail Business Plans Released
Retail Institute Releases Winning Retail Business Plans
Create a Winning Retail Business Plan in one day and get the financing you need.
Toronto, Canada, November 26, 2008 -- The revised 2009 edition of Winning Retail Business Plans is now available at a discounted promotional price. This business plan system will give any aspiring retailer the tools to get their concept on paper and create a professional Winning Retail Business Plan.
"There are scores of entrepreneurs out there who have great retail concepts but are not sure of how to get to the next level" stated Ron Pawlowski, Managing Partner at The Retail Institute.
Creating a written business plan with financial objectives and projections is essential if a retail concept needs to be shared with any stakeholder. These can include potential partners, employees, suppliers and most essential, investors. The package is designed so that any aspiring retailer can create a Winning Retail Business Plan with all the financials and present the plan to conventional and non conventional investors. "Entrepreneurs can consider presenting their plan to local banks as well as a wide array of other financing sources that they may not even be aware of. In the long run, many of these unconventional sources are better for the entrepreneur." added Pawlowski. The revised package comes with a 111 page manual, retail business plan template as well as spreadsheets for personal financial statements, cash flow projections, cash sensitivity projections and a trial balance sheet. The Winning Retail Business Plans package is also ideal for existing retailers who wish to expand or obtain secondary financing.

Automotive Shoppers To Get Bailout
Free Auto Quote Website to Help Bailout Automotive Shoppers
While automotive shoppers and dealerships alike are in a quandary on the condition of the auto industry, VirtualAutoBuying.com is introducing an enticing, streamlined auto buying process that should spur growth.
Austin, TX, October 24, 2008 -- After talking to the true authority in the automotive world, the consumers have spoken, and VirtualAutoBuying.com listened. Your typical auto shopper is busier than ever, price conscious, more apt to request free auto quotes online, and less receptive to the old ways of buying an auto.
Many consumers start their auto quote search with traditional websites such as Edmunds.com or Cars.com, but there is still something lacking. "Many people have expressed their frustrations with sites that offer so called 'free auto quotes,' stating that the quotes are limited to a few select dealerships and these dealerships call fifty times before lunch. It's the truth. Most of these auto websites are in bed with the dealerships that fork out the most cash," says VirtualAutoBuying.com cofounder Kylee Gray.
VirtualAutoBuying.com is changing the way the auto buying game is played and giving the consumer the upper hand. This is accomplished with an anonymous, streamlined, competitive quote process that involves multiple auto quotes instead of just a select few. Once the consumer signs up for a free account at their website, they create an anonymous account and email address for them. Then, they actively seek out every dealership within the set proximity to send quotes and compete for the buyer's business. This gives the buyer the ability to see the best deal, counter it and continue negotiations, all while remaining anonymous. Once the buyer has the numbers where they want them, they print off the quote, take it to the dealership and pick up their new ride. You can learn more at: http://www.VirtualAutoBuying.com
About VirtualAutoBuying.com:
The website was launched in October of 2008 to help make auto shopping more simplistic and to make sure that buyers were receiving equitable deals. VirtualAutoBuying.com also has a message board where you can find automotive news, automotive tips, and post dealership and vehicle reviews.

Independent Film Quarterly Magazine
Independent Film Quarterly
by Tanya Irwin , Friday, September 19, 2008
I CONFESS, I'M addicted to magazines. I can't go anywhere near a newsstand or bookstore without coming away with at least one. So seeing a free pile of magazines sitting anywhere is practically like hitting the lottery -- or at least winning on a scratch-off ticket.
I was up in Traverse City, Mich. earlier this month at the Traverse City Film Festival hanging out with my "good friends" Madonna and Michael Moore when I spied a pile of IFQs sitting on a table in one of the theater lobbies. Score!
The cover is intriguing. A black and white photo of a female who looks like a cross between a young Deborah Harry and Nico is set against a pink background. The issue is billed as the "Cannes Special Edition." Even though Danny Glover is the only name I recognized on the cover (I'll admit it, I like movies but I'm no art film aficionado) I figure maybe I'll know who some of the people are after reading about them. And maybe I'd learn something I didn't know from perusing the usual bourgeois entertainment zines.
As it turns out, the cover model is Emmanuelle Seigner, who appeared in "The Diving Bell and The Butterfly," which I have heard of. She's married to legendary director Roman Polanski. Penned by Nicole Holland, the interview is Q&A style and while it's decently written and somewhat interesting, I couldn't help but cringe at some of the "questions." I use quote marks because in several cases they aren't so much questions as statements of fawning adoration. Obviously the interviewee is a big deal in the film industry, but the tone of the article struck me as unprofessional and amateurish. I felt more like I was reading a high school newspaper than an internationally circulated magazine.
If that were the only such article in the 64-page magazine, I could give it a pass. But wait, there's more. We move on to another Q&A piece by Nicole Holland, this time with Asia Argento, whose father, Dario Argento, is a big-deal director in Europe. I've never heard of either of them or their movies, but the four-page piece is much the same as the first piece.
Moving along, there's another three-page Q&A by Nicole Holland, this time with Cecile De France, another actress I've never heard of. She was in a French movie with Gerard Depardieu. Finally, someone I have heard of. I'd been starting to feel seriously un-artsy fartsy.
The magazine describes itself on its Web site as "one of the fastest growing Film/Art & Society magazines featuring exclusive in-depth interviews with celebrated iconic figures in film, music and pop culture. IFQ invites you to experience this avant-garde film and pop culture movement." The advertising statistics sheet states that the target audience includes "producers, actors, directors, musicians, artists, film distributors, record labels, entertainment attorneys, dub houses, film labs, film festival directors, music festival directors, art festival directors, editors and the general public alike." I'm guessing they skew fairly young since the magazine has a profile on MySpace.
IFQ can be found in select Barnes & Nobles, Borders, Books-A-Million, on 3,000 newsstands nationwide and at domestic and international film, music and art festivals and related events. It has controlled circulation mailings that are sent to industry leaders, trade shows, music festivals, art festivals and film festivals, domestic and international.
Every article in the magazine is in Q&A style. While I don't mind that formatting as an occasional alternative to the objective third-person narration, it becomes grating after a while. Unless the person is a really big deal, I don't think it's necessary to preserve every single word they say. Spare the reader the gory details and get to the point. Exercise your competence as a writer and spin a tale that draws me in. Otherwise my take is that the writer is just being lazy or doesn't know how to write an actual story. But maybe to the 20,000 readers of this magazine, all of these interviews ARE with big-deal people. In which case, I guess all I can say is, "Enjoy."

Laser Hair Removal Threatened by Common Dangers
New Route to Hair Free Skin - But Are You At Risk of Serious Complications?
In the USA in 2007 nearly 1.5 mil. laser hair removal procedures were carried out. Shockingly a staggering 19.9% of patients undergoing these procedures experience complications. LaserHairRemoval-Info.com was founded in 2005 to provide consumers with little-publicized information on laser hair removal, and is launching a new book aiming to bring the knowledge needed by consumers out from behind the locked doors of the laser clinics and places it firmly in the hands of those that need it.
New York, NY, September 12, 2008 -- Success of Laser Hair Removal Threatened by Increasingly Common Dangers and Widespread Ignorance.
The removal of unwanted hair using lasers is becoming increasingly commonplace; in the USA in 2007, nearly 1.5 million laser hair removal procedures were carried out1 and shockingly a staggering 19.9% of patients undergoing these procedures experience complications2.
Increasingly consumers are having to take their fate into their own hands and perform the research and investigation necessary to ensure that they receive the appropriate treatment rather than relying on the dubious expertise of some of the laser hair removal clinics, many of which are not operating under the direct supervision of a qualified doctor or dermatologist.
"I never want to go near a laser again," says former laser hair removal patient Andrea (age 43) of Brooklyn, New York. After undergoing treatments totaling $2,900 in cost over the course of a year, Andrea has now reverted to shaving her unwanted body hair as the treatment was almost completely ineffective. "The wasted money, although it is a lot of money to me, is irrelevant compared to what I have suffered in pain and embarrassment undergoing treatment after treatment which initially had no effect at all and then when the laser strength was increased resulted in sore, unsightly burns."
Now a brand new report has been created, aimed squarely at consumers who want to get laser hair removal without the risk of side effects or ineffective treatment. Readers can download this free insider report, Top 10 Must-Know Tips on Laser Hair Removal, from http://www.laserhairremoval-info.com/download/booklet.htm. This no-nonsense guide will help patients to avoid the fate experienced by Andrea and ensure that they get the right laser hair removal treatment for their specific circumstances.
"Be prudent and selective when evaluating your options for any possible cosmetic procedure," advises dermatologist Gary Monheit, MD, president of the ASDS.
Patients must realize that just because a laser clinic near their home is offering treatment for a good price doesn't mean that this particular clinic possesses the expertise or the equipment to safely and effectively treat their skin type. The knowledge offered in the newly published book: Insider Secrets of Laser Hair Removal (available from September 2008) gives consumers the ability to understand the whole process of laser hair removal and how it will apply to their own physiology and specific goals.
LaserHairRemoval-Info.com was founded in 2005 to provide consumers with little-publicized information on laser hair removal. The site offers a range of articles, research materials and message forums for people considering this life-changing treatment.
