Sex And The City On The Big Screen

By: Frost Byte
Three years ago, the names of Carrie Bradshaw, Samantha Jones, Charlotte York, and Miranda Hobbes took the world of television by storm. For six seasons on HBO, "Sex and the City" have become a phenomenon. Millions have watched it in the United States and around the world. The popularity of the said show is undisputed. And now, the achievement of the four friends who according to Wikipedia "discussed their sexual desires and fantasies, as well as their beliefs and opinions" on the show have reached another landmark as the widely syndicated show will hit the big screen soon.According to BBC News, filming of Sex and the City has started in New York and is scheduled to be completed next year. The four friends played by Sarah Jessica Parker, Cynthia Nixon, Kim Cattrall, and Kristin Davis have returned to reprise their role on the big screen version of the said show. This means that fans of the show who were left wanting for more after six seasons will be treated to more of the quartet's antics.There have been pictures surfacing on the Internet from the shooting of the film and it shows that Charlotte's character is pregnant. This is quite surprising as she was having a hard time conceiving on the original series. In fact, her trouble at conceiving was given much focus on the show. Is Charlotte's pregnancy just one of the twists given to the stories to make it attractive for big screen production?As can be expected, there are those who are left questioning why a movie adaptation of Sex and the City would be made. Natalie Martinez writing for the Mercury News had this to say about the big screen adaptation of the HBO hit show: "I know, I know, movie versions of TV shows aren't anything new. But this time, it's not even a tongue-in-cheek version of the show - like "The Brady Bunch Movie" - or even a edgier version, with a new actors in the lead - like "Miami Vice." This time, it looks like it's the same dang show, the same dang cast but on a bigger screen. Boring."But a lot of fans of the original show will surely think otherwise. Although the show may not feature sexe gratuit or video sexe, it has captured the attention of male and female viewers alike. The antics of the four friends will surely be welcomed by those who have enjoyed following their adventures three years ago on television. But will it hold new viewers captivated just as amateur porno commands the attention of young boys? That can be answered next year when the movie comes to the big screen.One thing that Martinez and fans of the show share in common is that they all think that if the Sex and the City movie becomes a hit, it can mean that a sequel may soon be in the works.For the meantime, you can have your fill of sex minus the city at amateurquebec.com. The site offers open-minded individuals with different videos and pictures alike.

Asia, The Best Travel Destination

By: Brian Bees

If the time has come for your vacation or a holiday getaway, read this article before making your plans. There are many places of great beauty and interest to be seen in the USA and Europe. But, whether transportation, touring, theme park, or food and lodging, it is expensive. This article is written for every traveler, whether a backpacker on a budget, or a first class - five star traveler.

Travel in Asia is inexpensive and opens the door to different cultural experiences. Planning can be for a short holiday, an extended stay, or choices of laying the groundwork for the ultimate stay, retirement. Nowadays, with so many opportunities to make money using the Internet it is not out of the question to "retire" early.

Medical Tourism in Asia growing in popularity. It is high quality and affordable. Just one of International standard hospitals in Bangkok serves 400,000 international patients annually, In the USA cataract surgery for one eye runs around $8,000. At a prestigious International hospital in Thailand cataract surgery can be performed on both eyes for around $2,500. It is possible to have quality medical care, and an Asian holiday, for a fraction of the cost of the same procedure in the USA.

Let us take a tantalizing glimpse at just some of the countries.

Thailand - Land of Smiles. Often referred to as the most exotic country in Southeast Asia. A visit to the Grand Palace in Bangkok for sure. Trips to a floating market or to the Bridge on the River Kwai. From pristine beaches in the Southern Islands to the Northern mountains with its waterfalls, elephants bathing in mountain streams, and Hill Tribe villages.

India - Delhi is one of the oldest continually inhabited cities in the world. India Gate, an imposing structure, has emerged as one of the most popular tourist spots in Delhi. The Red Fort Delhi, a masterpiece of architecture, is a popular spot. A trip to India would not be complete without a visit to Agra, famous as the site of one of the world's most romantic, graceful and photographed buildings, the Taj Mahal.

Cambodia, Vietnam, Laos - Three small countries neighboring Thailand. Each opens a different world of exploration. Cambodia - the highlight is visiting Angkor Wat, an architectural masterpiece constructed in the jungle in the early 12th century. Vietnam - is a varied country, offering beaches, mountains and hundreds of years of history from the ancient Cham Towers to remnants from the Vietnam War. Laos - savor the crafts, culture and hospitality of Laos with a river trip, visits to ancient temples, gorgeous palaces, and traditional villages.

Nepal - Adventure, travel, trekking, birding, wildlife, and cultural & overland Safaris. Take an air flight along the Himalayas and view magnificent Mount Everest. Nearby, discover the serene beauty of Tibet, the country which inspired the Dalai Lama. .

Indonesia - Jakarta, the capital city of the world's fourth most-populous nation. Bali is Indonesia's main holiday destination. Flores is a pretty lush green island with forests, palm and banana trees, rice fields and many volcanoes. Highlights are the three small offshore islands of "Gillis" that invite snorkeling, diving and relaxing. For hikers, a climb to the top of the volcano Rijani.

Philippines - An island nation comprising over 7,000 islands in the western Pacific Ocean.
Manila, the bustling capital has powerful reminders of the country's past, along with attractive parks, fine museums, and exhilarating nightlife. The Ifugao Rice Terraces
are a testimony to the early technological advancement of the Ifugao people. Take a jeepney ride to the market. Be brave, try balut, a Philippine delicacy. Go diving in the Visayas.

Singapore - Shopping on famous Orchard Road, the dream of every woman. The Night Safari at Singapore Zoo is fabulous. Chinatown, a little glitzy, but you can buy all the souvenirs you want there. Interestingly, one of Singapore's most beautiful Hindu temples is smack dab in the middle of Chinatown. Decide if a Singapore Sling is worth the hype in the Long Bar at Raffles Hotel. There's more to Singapore than urban glitz, like rambling in the rain forest of Bukit Timah Nature Reserve.

Japan - Tokyo is the capital city and home of the Imperial Residence and Emperor's Palace. Select a popular destination or region in Japan and explore its attractions. Ride the Bullet Train to the magnificent city of Kyoto. Visit Hiroshima and the Peace Memorial Park. Castles, temples, gardens, the list of top destinations in Japan is too long for this article..

Taiwan - Taipei, the country's booming, vibrant capital remains steeped in Chinese, Japanese and native Taiwanese cultures. Some of its most impressive sights include the Grand Hotel, topped by the largest Classical Chinese roof in the world, the Shihlin Night Market, the Chiang Kai-shek Memorial with the National Theater and Concert Hall located directly across from each other on the grounds. A popular day trip is Tailuge (Taroko Gorge), considered one of the natural wonders of the world.

Hong Kong - the Pearl of East and jewel of The Orient. Nathan Road is lined with shops, restaurants, nightspots and cheap places to stay. If you're in Hong Kong with the little ones, they'll probably appreciate Ocean Park (aquarium), Water World (swimming pools and water slides), and of course Disneyland. If you're in Hong Kong for more than a few days, then there's plenty of outlying islands to discover.

It is often said that for the traveler that has seen it all and done it all, there is still Katmandu, Nepal. And, that too is in Asia!

If you do not visit Asia, you will be missing not only a paradise of affordable travel, but the chance to see an alternative living location. For retirees, it is luxury living for pennies, not just getting by on their pension. Asia, a paradise experience is waiting for you.

5 Reasons To Avoid PublishAmerica

By ContentMart Editor


Ever since I first wrote about my publishing pitfalls with PublishAmerica, I?ve received a lot of correspondence from writers asking me if they too should avoid publishing with this notorious online POD company. So, in response to yet another letter from an unpublished author, I?ve been motivated to write about the top five reasons why one shouldn?t hand over their manuscript to this Frederick, Maryland based online publisher.
Although a person can go to any search engine such as Yahoo or Google and type in the term ?PublishAmerica? or ?Publish America? [using the quotes gets more results], many authors refrain from doing this. This is a gigantic mistake on their part as they generally have squandered a manuscript that they?ve spent many months or years working on, and have eliminated their chances at getting published with a legitimate publisher.
PublishAmerica is a tiny online based publishing company run by a trio of unpublished authors, namely Dutch born and raised Willem Meiners who speaks and writes English as a second language, Larry Clopper, a computer programmer, and Miranda Prather, a poet. Unlike the ?traditional? mainstream publishers that they are constantly comparing themselves to, this executive staff is under the delusion that they are changing the publishing industry. Instead of admitting on their patriotic looking web site that they are a vanity POD [Print On Demand] publisher with a strict no-returns policy that exists solely to sell the authors? books back to the author him or herself, this company pretends that they are radically altering the publishing world.
Authors, if the above hasn?t already dissuaded you from signing a PublishAmerica contract, please think about the following points:
1.Your book will NOT be stocked in a chain or independent bookstore due to the no-returns policy, high cover price, and short discount.2.The Publish America team of editors consists of teenagers and young adults who run spelling/grammar checks on manuscripts, which doesn?t amount to much if you have ever used a standard word processing editing program. They also have a non-editing option you can choose which will allow your book to be released in a matter of weeks rather than months. Editing for story, length, characterization, and content doesn?t exist in the PublishAmerica editing stable.3.You will receive an author?s questionnaire in which you are asked to disclose up to 100 names of family members, friends, and associates. It states: ?Also, please do not include businesses or organizations of any kind, including bookstores, media contacts, or government organizations. Include friends and associates only.? Why are they so shy of staying away from the media if their wish is to actually SELL books?4.Twice a year, March and September, marks the season for minuscule royalty checks. Think of the time and effort you put in to writing your book. Add up the $30 copyright fee you paid, the number of books you bought yourself, the amount of money you forked over to get a web site and/or ANY type of online and offline promotional effort, and divide that into the amount you receive ? usually less than $20! 5.Look at the numbers of authors and author?s advocates out there who write about what a scam PublishAmerica really is. Not just one or two disgruntled authors, but hundreds of them. Over on the Absolute Write Forum we have over 900 pages of the NeverEnding Publish America thread. Mindsight and Writers Net have similarly vast amounts of web space devoted to warning and educating people about the drawbacks of being a Publish America author.
And finally, think about the time frame of that seven-year long contract which is what Publish America offers. In some states you could commit some pretty nasty felonies and get less prison time than that! Perhaps a more appropriate slogan would be: PublishAmerica, imprisoning authors one book at a time!

Casino Royale: 007 Beats SMERSH at Baccarat

By: Jack Reider


Prior to popular opinion, Dr. No was not the first book written by Ian Fleming featuring James Bond as the leading character. Casino Royale was the first but it was not the first movie adapted to the James Bond series as we know it. Casino Royale was adapted twice to the small screen and once to the big screen without much success.
But this time around it is going to be different. Daniel Craig is the actor chosen to replace Pierce Brosnan as Bond, and its going to be a rough ride. Even as soon as after he was selected, fans got together and began to criticize the choice especially for his blond hair and relatively shortness. (He is the shortest Bond ever). They organized a petition, and the production company took notice but went ahead with the movie hoping that his acting will change their minds in what promises to be an action-packed movie.
Casino Royale, true to its name, centers around playing baccarat in a casino. James Bond plays against Monsieur Le Chiffre, one of the top SMERSH operatives who has been sent to the casino in order to win money that can be used to fund terrorist activities. The action, or at least the gaming action, takes place in a beautiful casino on the French Riviera.
The objective of James Bond is to defeat Chiffre and increase his gambling debts so that SMERSH will have him killed. The game chosen is Chemin de Fer. They play head to head and the lead moves from one to the other but eventually James Bond gains the upper hand and winds. Chiffre procures tremendous losses and SMERSH assassinates him. But before that he manages to capture and torture Bond using the vixen double-bubble agent, Vesper Lynd, who was supposed to be acting as an assistant to James Bond.
What is Chemin de Fer?This is an easy to learn and easy to play game. The dealer deals two hands and the players compete against each other to receive a larger hand. One player takes on the role of the banker and the other the player. This is similar to the American version where the dealer hands out two hands and then each player can bet either on the cards they received or on the cards that the dealer receives. Read about this French game at Casino en Ligne written by Gambling Portal.
Baccarat as it is played at land and online casinos is not exactly as flashy as in the movies, but it is not very different. People who play Chemin de Fer or baccarat usually dress up in style and are usually among the higher classes of society. The chairs around the baccarat tables are generally well-padded and champagne flows like water.
The storyline was adapted into a movie twice and even once for the small screen but this time around its going to be grand. Whether it’s a box-office hit or not is a mystery to all but it will make huge headlines in either case because it the twenty-first adaptation of the James Bond series and the first with Daniel Craig. A major difference between the book and the movie is that baccarat will no longer take center stage but another game more popular today: Texas holdem.

Upcoming Movie Reviews

By: John Smith


The great thing about upcoming movies that are due in theaters is the anticipation that surrounds them. Is the new movie going to be any good? Does so and so really get killed off in the end? There are many questions that surround upcoming movies that increase the level of hype as the release date closes in. But with that being said, there are also some downsides of upcoming movies as well. For instance, it is hard to know if an upcoming movie is going to be good, or if the film company is just building hype to sell tickets. The best way to get around this problem is to read reviews of upcoming movies before you spend your money on them. Of course, this is not a full proof way of making a decision, but it can’t hurt.
Upcoming movie reviews are generally written by members of the media who are granted access to a film screening. This gives the reviewer the ability to put together a write up that depicts what the film is about. They usually offer minor details on the plot as well as an overall grade at the end of their review; this is done on a star system in most cases.
To find upcoming movie reviews you can search both online and in your local newspaper. Most major newspapers have an entertainment section in which reviews are written by the same person week in and week out. If you find a reviewer that has the same tastes as you, you will be able to rely on them time and time again to tell you which movies are worth seeing.
You can also find reviews on upcoming movies by searching online. There are many popular websites that offer these reviews, and if you bookmark them you can check back on a regular basis to get the scoop on upcoming releases.
All in all, reading upcoming movie reviews is a good idea before you decide to pay money to see a film in the theater. This way you will know what others think about a movie (either good or bad) before you decide to see it on your own.
