Vagina. There, I said it. So if you’re one of those prudish types who think vagina is a swearword, you might want to skip to the next post. However, if you’re interested in good looking vaginae, especially having a good looking vagina (and you know you are), keep on reading.

In this post I will touch on vaginae as a topic, more specifically vagina labia. “What!?”, I can already hear the feminist types screaming, the flames of burning bras flickering in their livid eyes, “You’re male! What could you possibly know about labia!?”.

True, I am male, but let’s just say that, in my life, I’ve been around a fair few vaginae and labia. What I mean to say is that I’ve seen my fair share. Ok, fine, I know nothing about having a vagina or labia, but I can relate to having issues with the self and that’s what this post is really about.

We all have little things, little quirks about ourselves that we wish we could change. For some people these little things are quite big, even if it is to themselves only, and in extreme cases they even opt for cosmetic surgery. I’ve had some corrective surgery done to my jaw, for instance, not because I’m vain, but because my extended and a-symmetrical jaw gave me confidence issues, which affected my quality of life. Despite the fact that my friends said they didn’t notice it, it was very real and very large to me.

Which brings me back to vaginae and labia. A little known issue amongst women have to do with, well, vaginae. The labia, for instance, comes in various shapes and sizes and sometimes the labia can be so large, or on occasion, a-symmetrical, in other words not equal in length or shape, that it leads to confidence issues.

Even though nobody will ever see or will even know about this issue, it effects ones self esteem, which eventually negatively impacts on others areas of life. And, have I realised as I grew older and accepted about myself that which people can see, it’s often what people can’t see that creates the biggest demons. And of all those issues, sexual confidence is possibly the most important one, more so if you don’t have any sexual confidence; something you’d lack if you hated the way your sexual organ looked and made you feel.

“But I’ve never heard of this issue, how ridiculous”, you might say. Yet, such is this issue amongst women that Dr. Miklos and Dr. Moore, Atlanta based master surgeons, have assist women with the above, as well as rectocele surgery, in 46 states in the US and 25 countries world wide. They specialise in not only the delicate surgery required for labia reductions, but also in vagina rejuvenation techniques.

Such cosmetic procedures, that hardly anybody but you will see or know about, can bring a new confidence that you will radiate and will positively influence your life and those close to you.

If this type of surgery doesn’t bring a smile to your face, it certainly will to your lips.

I received the following scam email at work. I work at a hotel, so this email is not totally misdirected. I post it here verbatim, errors and all.

I’m no genius and I have been scammed before, but people who still for this type of thing surely deserves to pay the price for the valuable lesson that they will learn when they’ve lost the money that they inevitably will from taking part in this scam:

This email obviously has scam written all over it and the method is simple – if you’re greedy enough (stupid enough) to fall for this, you will more than likely receive some credit card numbers via email. These credit card numbers will obviously be stolen.

In fact, if you believe the email, they are from the Ivory Coast, but I’m willing to bet good money (send your bet in the meantime, sucker!) that the credit card numbers will have names very much unlike what you could expect to find in the Ivory Coast.

You will be required, according to the sop story in the email, to swipe the credit cards and take the funds, immediately making you a thief. You will then transfer the monies to them via Western Union (so they can be anywhere on the planet, really) and keep 1,000 Euro’s for your trouble and hard work – you hard worker and trouble taker you.

They will disappear with the monies that you sent them and your bank will reverse the charges from your EFT Point when the persons who’s credit card numbers they’ve stolen, disputes the charges. Of course, you won’t be able to provide anything remotely in the realm of permission, so you will be out of pocket those monies you transfered to them (because I guess the so-called Ivorians won’t be transferring that back to you).

Haha. Dunce!

The only people more stupid than sending these emails, are those who actually fall for it. For your greed (and stupidity), you must pay.

Don’t be greedy. Don’t be stupid. Don’t fall for this scam.

A lot of attention has recently been given to bloggers who get paid to blog, especially in light of certain search engines going on the rampage and doing all sorts of not-so-nice stuff to those of us who make a living through blog advertising.

There is, however, a company who’s standing unshaken against such behemoths and is conducting business as usual. If you blog for money, then you’ll probably know that I’m referring to the guys from Smorty. I hooked up with them a few weeks ago through blogger friends of mine who blogs for money with them with great success and I thought I’d try out their system.

To advertise on blogs is a great resource for both advertisers and bloggers and Smorty bring’s the two together. The advertiser benefits through word of their product spreading and bloggers benefit because they get paid for their opinion, which is something we all do every time we write a post anyway – isn’t that the perfect job?

Their blogger dashboard is simple and straight forward, so there’s no guessing what to do and where to go to do it, which saves a lot of time when you’re going in, getting an assignment and getting on with the business of posting. Their grading system, although it includes the dreaded p-ranking system, doesn’t rely on it solely, but instead uses a propriety aggregate of information to determine the standing of your website and the value of offers you can apply for.

If you’re keen on blogging for money their definitely worth a try.

When it comes to setting up your own online business, once you have a product, selling it online is easier than you think. How many times have you bought something online, used a fancy shopping cart and thought to yourself “man, if I could get a shopping cart like that, I’d sell my stuff easy”.

And it’s true, ecommerce software makes life very easy. But, the easy part is plugging your products and prices into the shopping cart. What takes a bit of work is setting up the shopping cart, and although there are various solutions out there, most of the ones I’ve used before required loads of tinkering.

You often end up spending so much time tweaking, that you forget you’re actually trying to sell stuff. I remember long, arduous hours spent trying to figure out and setup OsCommerce, for instance. What you don’t pay in fees, you pay for with your time, which, after all, is money.

However, the net has come a long way since those days of tinkering, and now, people in it for the money and not tweaking something to death, uses ready-made, hosted systems that takes a lot of effort out of the setup, like this great shopping cart I happened upon recently.

First off, you don’t have to worry about hosting or technical support, because you get that with this shopping cart software. The interface, for both user and admin, is intuitive and user friendly and they connect with all the favourite payment gateways including Paypal. And with this shopping cart you can customise any part of the site, so you’ll be up and running in no time, making money.

Now that that’s sorted, we just need to find the perfect product.

A whole wonderful world of e-commerce is opening up to me, and I firmly believe, tell me that I’ve obviously lived under a rock if you want, but I firmly believe that I’m not the last person to find this out, so let me share just in case the next person to read it didn’t know either.

If you want to start and online business, or if you’ve tried before, you’ll know that getting one of those merchant accounts where you accept credit cards online, is damn difficult. Well, with a merchant account from PayPal, there’s no sweat.

In my previous post I told you about the Reseller Web-hosting account that you can get through HostGator, and HostGator themselves recommend PayPal as the best payment portal to use. With a PayPal merchant account you can star accepting the big cards, Visa, Mastercard, Discover & American Express, instantly.

They are the best guys to use for several reason, most notably the fact that they’re the biggest of their kind, so you know if there are challenges to their system they’ll survive, and secondly they have advanced anti-fraud measures in place, which means less disputed payments and less bill-backs.

Now that you have the tools for setting yourself up as web host with a Reseller Webhosting Account from HostGator, with PayPal you can also take your own credit card payments. Sorted!

The only thing left to find is customers.
