Reign Lounge Houston Nighclub Review

Sep 1, 2010 by Paul White

Washington Avenue is the new hot spot for Houston's Nightlife.  Over the weekend I visited Reign Lounge where my client was promoting an event.  Over all the place is great.  But that doesn't mean it doesn't have its list of negatives.  So if you are curious about Reign Lounge you might want to read this article before going out.

The truth about Supplements and BodyBuilding

Aug 5, 2010 by Paul White

Over the past decade I have seen how supplement companies have continued to sell the same line of BS to consumers just so they can sell products.  Over time I have learned the truth about this industry.  The sad truth is there are very few if any quality products out there. Hopefully some people will give this some thought before they go off and buy half the stuff at GNC.

Save Money with Pearland Childrens Resale and Consignment

Jul 25, 2010 by Paul White

If you got kids, or have one on the way, you are about to go through a life changing experience.  One of the most noticeable changes is the thinning of your wallet.  To help put this to a stop instead of going to Babys R Us or other retail stores to buy your baby stuff, try the local consignment shops.  One I highly recommend is Ellies Enchanted Closet.  They are a small shop located off 518 and Dixie Farm Road in Pearland.  Their inventory changes daily.  You can get everything from Car Seats, Pack and Plays, Jumpers, swings, and clothing.  Also if you have baby stuff that your child has out grown and its in good condition, you can take it to ellies and have them sell it for you. Then when it sells you can either get a check for it, or use the proceeds as in store credit.  In my opinion Ellies Enchanted Closet is the best Pearland Childrens Consignment shop

Thunderbird not saving sent mail

Jul 12, 2010 by Paul White

If you find yourself in a situation where thunderbird is no longer saving your sent emails in the Sent folder, then I might have a solution.  In my case all emails from July 4th 2010 on were not showing.  That and anytime I clicked on my Sent folder it would take a very long time to load.  If any of these symptoms sound like your problem, then my solution should work.  Keep in mind by the time I got to this solution I had already gone through and deleted my .msf files, ran compact folders, and even created a new profile.  None of these solved the problem.  In short the problem was a bad email in my sent folder. But it also turns out there is a 4GB limit on folder sizes in thunderbird

The power of Selling through what is not said

Jul 7, 2010 by Paul White

Over the years I have noticed how the world's most successful companies are selling from what they don't say, rather than what they do.  This is the point in which marketing becomes an art form, rather than just going through the motions.  Even though I am no marketing expert,  I am deeply aware of the types of marketing that causes me to remember and crave a given product or service.

How to change your outlook in life.

Jul 3, 2010 by Paul White

Everyday we are exposed to the biased views and opinions of other people.  This in turn causes us to reevaluate how we live our own life, and question our own thoughts and opinions.  Even though its important to keep an open mind,  living in fear never got anyone ahead.  In this blog I discuss how the world around us has changed and the impact its having on people, who might need to just turn the TV off.

Jun 30, 2010 by Paul White

Recently I was talking to some friends and family, and I came to notice there are an increasing number of people who are getting sucked into this Modern Hippie Lifestyle, doing things in total disregard for capitalism.  So in this blog I will list out all the things I see people do and point out why I disagree or agree with it.

T-Mobile Houston 3G network gets boost in Pearland

Jun 23, 2010 by Paul White

Today my Comcast Cable Modem Service went out again.  So I plugged my HTC HD2 phone into my desktop via the USB cable, loaded up Internet Sharing and started tethering.  In the past I would get terrible speeds ( mostly due to not being able to get a strong enough 3G signal.  If I was at home, I was on Edge ( 14KB - 20KB ) transfers at best.  If I was near the towers the speeds were better, but they still couldn't touch AT&T's HSDPA.  So today when I plugged my phone into workstation I wasn't expecting anything special.  But instead I got a big surprise. 3.53 Mb/s downstream, 1.44 Mb/s Upstream via tethering with my HD2 on the Tmobile 3G network in Pearland ( Houston )
