Michael Jackson turned 50 on August 29 but insisted that age has not taken a toll on him. “I feel very wise and sage, but at the same time very young,” said the King of Pop asserting that his body can still twist and turn like it did years ago.

There will be no grand celebrations to mark Jackson’s 50th birthday. All he plans is: “A little cake with my children and we’ll probably watch some cartoons.”

The unparalleled music icon who has 13 Grammy’s to his credit and has sold more than 750 million albums worldwide is still looking forward to doing a lot of great things. “… I think the best is yet to come in my true humble opinion,” he said.

Jackson has been devoted to composing but his music, but it has not exactly been the focus of his life for almost a generation now. Priorities have changed for the twice-divorced father of three, who wants to spend time with his growing children and make sure they have a normal life.

“I am letting them enjoy their childhood as much as possible,” Jackson said adding that he takes pleasure in teaching them how to read and ride bicycles. “I let them go to the arcade and go to the movies and do things. I think that comes naturally. I want them to get to do things I didn’t get to do,” he said.

1. Sex is a beauty treatment. Scientific tests find that when women make love they produce amounts of the hormone estrogen, which makes hair shine and skin smooth.

2. Gentle, relaxed lovemaking reduces your chances of suffering dermatitis, skin rashes and blemishes. The sweat produced cleanses the pores and makes your skin glow.

3. Lovemaking can burn up those calories you piled on during that romantic dinner.

4. Sex is one of the safest sports you can take up. It stretches and tones up just about every muscle in the body. It’s more enjoyable than swimming 20 laps, and you don’t need special sneakers!

5. Sex is an instant cure for mild depression. It releases endorphins into the bloodstream, producing a sense of euphoria and leaving you with a feeling of well-being.


6. The more sex you have, the more you will be offered. The sexually active body gives off greater quantities of chemicals called pheromones. These subtle sex perfumes drive the opposite sex crazy.

1 WARM UP: The opening track is designed to warm up all the major muscles and prepare the body for the workout ahead. First we adopt the BodyPump set position of standing upright with great posture, heels under hips with the toes turned out slightly. The tummy is held in tight, the chest is proud with the shoulders down and back and knees are soft. Then we do shorted versions of each of the main exercises to follow, warning up all the major muscle groups and preparing the body for the workout ahead.

2 LEGS AND SQUATS: The first real working track targets the biggest muscle groups of quadriceps, gluteus and hamstrings with squats performed at different speeds – slow for strengthening and toning, fast for burning calories. Participants will use their heaviest weight selection for this track.

3 BACK: The focus changes from legs to the upper body and lighter weights are used as participants lie back on their bench to work the barbell up and down at chest level. This track targets the major muscles of the chest, shoulders and triceps with moves of varying range and intensity.

4 CHEST: Participants return to the standing set position for the most athletic track of the class. A selection of lifts and dead rows trains the postural muscles of the upper-mid and lower back and the cardiovascular system soars with clean and presses, where the barbell is lifted high above the head. This engages all the muscles of the upper- mid and lowers back, as well as working the gluteals and hamstrings.

5 TRICEPS: It’s time to lie back on the bench again and sculpt and tone the triceps using lighter weights. The barbell is held at chest level and lowered toward the forehead or chest by bending the arms at the elbow. Other moves may include triceps kickbacks using a single plate, triceps push-ups and tricep dips.

“When men cheat, it basically means that they are looking for something their girlfriend or wife is not providing. Often times, it comes down to sex.” Well, partially true but there must be more to it than that. “….cheating is disrespectful towards the person you’ve cheated on, but at the very least, it has two beneficial aspects to it.

First, that you’ll realize your mistake and appreciate your lover a lot more after the horrible deed. The second is that cheating can help you realize your misery within your current relationship, and will likely give you that necessary shove to move on and stop wasting both your lover’s and your own time.”

So why do some men cheat in relationships? Almost all men know that cheating is wrong, yet many they still do it. Men will blame their reasons for cheating on their genes and their necessity to reproduce. However, aren’t we suppose to be further evolved than a chimp? Shouldn’t we be able to control our bodies through our minds and conscious decisions? Apparently not always.

Women do have great understanding about men. But there is a part of men that they do not completely understand. Why in the world would he cheat on me, this seems to be a question that crosses the minds of women who are cheated on.

Possibly the area of the problem could be commitment. Even being married, some men will not fully commit themselves to the spouse. Not only in outward areas of his life but mostly inside. So not being truthful in a sense it will cause men to stray to look for a more comfortable relationship.

Let me ask you a quick question. It’s a question that most men do not know the answer to… It’s also a question that most women do know the answer to…
The question: “What is Sexual Tension?”

Take a minute and “mentally answer” that question. Think it over if you have to. I’m not kidding. Think about it. What did you come up with?

I prefer a very pure definition of sexual tension because it is grounded in real sexual desire, and a very natural way of magnifying the tension felt by the woman.

Sexual tension is the occurrence between two people or in works of fiction where two or more of the individuals sexually long for one another, but the consummation is postponed or never occurs. This longing is often suggested by incidents of intimacy; for instance, when two people or characters are alone, are physically close, but desire is never explicitly expressed.

Sexual tension is the presence of a controlled arousal state, in the absence of overt sexual interest. In other words, some guys think that the words Sexual Tension mean “negative anxiety about sex” or something equally unhelpful.

But, if you go ask a group of women what the words mean, you’ll get a much different answer. Women know what Sexual Tension is.

The truth is we begin the aging process just as soon as we pop out of the womb. Every day of our lives our bodies slough off and regenerate new cells. The speed at which that process takes place when we are children is vastly different as we get older.

Health and beauty cannot be separated from each other. How healthy you are, is reflected in your hair, your nails and your skin.

Beauty of the skin starts from inside your body! Your skin needs fresh air, exercise, a proper diet, minerals and vitamins and it needs protection from the sun.

Many people just put skin cream on their skin, thinking it is going to make it soft and smooth. Skin cream on the skin feels soft and smooth, but if you want your skin to benefit from that cream, you need to dampen your skin first then add the cream. The cream will help retain the moisture in the skin.

If you want to be beautiful then you need to be healthy, it is as simple as that. Good health means eating right and getting plenty of sleep. It also means getting a good amount of exercise.

Eating for beauty means getting a decent among of fiber in your diet each day. A good among of fiber is 25 grams of it, this is easy to have as part of your daily intake. You can eat a good fiber based cereal in the morning for a simple solution.

If there’s one thing men love more than sport, it’s watching the gorgeous women in it. And I mean this in a totally non-sexual way, mostly. Okay, so they are hot and sweaty and wear short, slinky outfits, but over the next eight pages you will learn that these women have gotten to wherever they are because of true grit, grace and perseverance.

The women in tennis lead the way. Long before Anna Kournikova sold the world sports bras telling us why “only the tennis ball should bounce on court”, there was Gabriella Sabatini whose androgynous beauty endeared her to us and whose inability to get past Steffi Graf made us almost hate the German and mind you, she wasn’t bad looking either. However, the arrival of Kournikova in the 90s heralded a change in the way women in sport were viewed. Here was a blonde who was good looking enough to make people forget even today that she never won a single title of any repute. And on that note and to celebrate the spirit of the summer Olympics this month, we present to you our round-up of the hottest women athletes today. Yelena Isinbayeva Age: 26 Sport: Athletics (pole vault) Why we picked her: The brunette from Volgograd (formerly Stalingrad) has 22 world records to her credit. She is the first female pole vaulter to breach the 5m mark and has the grace and finesse of a gymnast thanks to her early years of gymnastics training. Yelena is easily the most accomplished athlete of her generation, she won the pole vault gold at Athens and is the best bet for this year’s gold at Beijing. And to top it all, she looks good enough to be in the movies. Ana Ivanovic Age: 20 Sport: Tennis Why we picked her: We only remember three occasions in the history of women’s tennis when the no. 1 ranking has been held by a gorgeous woman – Steffi Graf, Maria Sharapova and now Ana Ivanovic as we went to press. The tall Serbian’s girl-next-door charm and attitude has earned her a multitude of male fans. With a Grand Slam victory at the French Open this year and a possible shot at an Olympic gold in Beijing, it’s no surprise that her country has even put her pretty figure on Serbia’s postage stamps.

Everyone has experienced the passion and excitement of a new relationship, otherwise known as the “Honeymoon Phase”. You can’t wait to spend time with each other, you start to think about your future together, and it feels like you’ve finally found “the one” – you can’t imagine your feelings for each other changing. Some of the time however, the Honeymoon Phase DOES end, and as the dust settles you get to know each other (for better or worse) on a deeper and truer level. Sometimes the person you thought you were dating doesn’t even really exist, so how do you know when you’re dating the wrong person?

1. You feel the need to change them. This is one of the most significant clues that you may be with the wrong person. It means you are not satisfied with the person they are, and you’re trying to change them into something YOU want, which may not be something they are, or even be capable of being. A healthy and successful relationship is about accepting people as they are and being happy with that. On the flip side, accepting them and not having your needs met is not healthy either.

2. Common Goals. We all have ideas of where we want to be in life and things that are important to us, such as career, habitation, children etc. If you’re involved with someone who doesn’t want the same things as you, you will experience difficulty down the line. Sacrificing for someone is only good if it’s for the betterment of the relationship – it can’t be at your own expense. If you lose site of the things that are really important to you, you may end up blaming and resenting your partner for not allowing you to pursue what you needed in order to be happy.

3. What do your friends and family think about your partner? When we’re in love, the last thing we want to hear is that they don’t like our partner. As much as we may feel it’s none of their business however, it doesn’t hurt to take their opinions into account – they know and love you, and they also can be more objective than you in this situation. Try to take off the rose-colored glasses early on in the relationship and pay attention to the interaction between your partner and your friends and family. If you find that you are more isolated and not socializing with your inner circle – ask yourself why.

When a guy gets turned down over and over again (during the seduction process) in his relationship with his wife (or girlfriend) he often attempts to make adjustments.

You are about to learn the 2 deadly mistakes guys make when attempting to correct the problem with their “not in the mood” female partner.

Deadly Wife Seduction Mistake # 1

Trying to learn how to be an awesome lover. I’m referring to becoming better in bed.

This may shock the hell out of you, but it’s the wrong approach.
I’ll explain. Here is what the guy thinks:

The wrong approach: He thinks that if he becomes so good in bed, his wife will want to keep coming back for more.

Every guy thinks this. So just relax, it’s normal.

Let’s talk about why the thinking is flawed. Again, the guy thinks if he puts on a world class performance she will want it all the time. In reality, it doesn’t matter how good you are in bed if you are a lousy sexual salesman she will not buy into your offer. There is such a thing as poor salesmanship. And a poor salesman couldn’t sell hundred dollar bills for 50 cents.

Trust me, I’ve seen poor salesmen in action. And in many cases they will talk themselves out of the sale. They actually end up convincing the person not to buy. Keep this in mind: SEX is the product and SEDUCING (or the word I like to use is SEXUALLY INSPIRING) is the process of selling the product. I’ll give you another example.
