Dizolve and Just a Drop e1324007276407

‘Dizolve Detergent’ and ‘Just a Drop’ a Must Have for the Smart Man

Some of you guys including my friends will be wondering why I am writing about laundry detergent on a mens’ website. Well, the last time I checked most guys do not enjoy doing laundry. And when they do laundry, they want the whole process to be an easy task without the need to cleanup a potential mess.

Dizolve detergent is basically the same thing as the powder or liquid detergent but Dizolve has a few advantages. First of all, Dizolve detergent comes in sheets which are pre-measured for one regular load of laundry. The sheets are also perforated in the middle just in case you have a smaller laundry load to wash. This takes the messy measuring out of the equation. Dizolve detergent also contains minimal water content unlike the liquid detergents which are generally 50% water.  This reduces the use of valuable resources. Unlike the powder detergents, Dizolve is 100% dissolvable and it also contains biodegradable cleaning ingredients. And it’s also nice that it takes very little room (you’ll know what I mean when you see the pictures below).

Dottling – The Skeleton Luxury Watch Safe

Like the Erwin Sattler Thesaurus watch desk, “The Skeleton” is for people that love watches as much as they love money.  The Skeleton watch safe is made by German luxury safe makers, Döttling, who built the world’s most expensive “Döttling Narcissus” safe designed by Karl Lagerfeld.

Döttling is also known for restoring historical safes, giving them a modern look and equipping them with modern technologies.  “The Skeleton” is also a restoration job done to a safe from Emperor Wilhelm II era, from about 120 years ago.  The safe is a one-off piece made for a wealthy US based client who wanted to showcase his expensive watch collection in high-style while still keeping it safe.  The safe, which has been converted to showcase watches, took 18 months to be restored and brought to its current glorious state, at a price of €250,000.

Miniatur Wunderland Hamburg – Talk About Attention To Detail

In May 2011, the Knuffingen Airport at the Miniatur Wunderland (German for Miniature Wonderland) was completed and is currently the world’s largest model airport. But the airport is only part of the Wonderland attraction. The exhibit started as a model railway attraction in Hamburg, Germany and is the largest of its kind in the world.

The model railway consists of seven sections: Harz (fictitious city of Knuffingen), Hamburg, Scandinavia, Switzerland, the Alps and Austria, and America. The model railway takes up approximately 1,150 m2 of floor space. Each section has unique landscapes and the railway exhibit showcases details that the specific regions are known for in the real world.­ For example, the ‘America’ section has highlights such as Las Vegas with over 30,000 lights, the Grand Canyon, Rocky Mountains, Area 51, Miami, the Everglades, and so on. When you watch the promotional video below, you will also find funny interactive scenes such as people having sex in a van or a not so funny scene such the police investigating a crime scene.

Mexico, Beyond the Border and the Hype: Adventure Travel in Veracruz

Mexico is not getting the best press right now. We all know this. As a result, fewer of us Americans are going there, outside of the college kids and honeymooners heading straight for the American colony of Cancun. But the truth is that the bad news out of Mexico is close to the border and in isolated cities. That’s why I headed to Mexico, one, because there is a whole other Mexico that is beautiful and safe and a great setting for adventure, and two, because Mexico tourist bureaus are willing to send “journalists” like me on trips to prove it.

I arrived in Veracruz, Mexico, after a short connection in Dallas where I tried airport Texas barbecue, which turns out, is

Journey to the Present at Panama’s Embera Indian Village

The Embera Indian Village outside of Panama City is not a historical recreation. It’s not Panama’s answer to Jamestown or Plymouth Colony. There is no modern visitor center or actors dressed in traditional garb and refusing to break character for eight bucks an hour. Despite the fact that there are tours, and the Embera people are friendly, hospitable, and happy to share their traditions and culture with outsiders, the Embera Indian Village is a real village, and a real home to the Embera people that live there.
