New York’s Museum of Natural History – A Trip Around The World!

Patricia Kennedy: Real Estate Agent in Washington, DC

I haven’t been to the American Museum of Natural History since I was a little kid, and the same old dinosaur that scared me then greeted me once again.

But this time, the display of mammals is what blew me away!

They display stuffed animals behind glass in very real looking native settings. And you expect them all to blink or start munching on some of the very real looking vegetation. Here are some of my new friends –

The tall guys

The stripey guys

The "Don't Mess With Me" Guy

And there were dozens more!

If you are in New York with children of any age, a trip to this museum is fun and even educational. And if you need to pick up any Christmas or birthday presents, the 3-level gift shop has a wonderful selection of minerals, fossils, crystals, books, and jewelry.

I can’t believe that during the decade I lived in Manhattan, I never checked this place out! If I hadn't forgotten to have that kid, I'd probably be more familiar with it. And check out their web site - there are so many fun exhibits!

The museum is located on Central Park West, between 77th and79th Streets.

Weight-loss and diet in autumn

02-16-09

bill wu: Real Estate Agent in New York, NY

Along with the end of the summer, the hot topic of losing weight is gradually ignored by women. In fact, in autumn and winter, people can easily gather flesh. If you care little about preventing fat, it will be a big problem in the coming year.

Q: When autumn comes, can you talk about any consideration about reducing weight from the angle of food nourishment?

A: In summer, because of hot, we don’t have a good appetite, so many people eat little. While in autumn, the weather is cool, we all have a good appetite and eat more, so we can easily get fat. Actually we are fat because of the total calories we ingested are more than that of we consumed. Thus, we should control our diet, do not eat too much, and make sure the food is alible. Refuse the garbage food with high fat, high calories, instead of some low-fat foods. Generally speaking, in autumn, we should pay attention to these following points: Keep diversification of food, but control the quantity; Eat more vegetables and fruits; proper fish fowl eggs, lean meat; Little fat meat and lard; Make balance on the quantity of food and physical activity, keep proper movement; Take mild, little salt food.

Q: Many people don’t have supper in order to reduce weight, how about this? How should we have supper to lose weight?

A: The main reason of fat is the intake of calories is greater than consumption. If we don’t have supper, intestines and stomach are in an empty state, it is bad for health However, we don’t suggest overeat, generally speaking, the calories we get from supper should not more than 25% of the whole days. Metabolic activity and digestion will decrease relatively at night. Overmuch food will gather in the stomach, digestion is not complete, producing a variety of toxins; In addition, the insulin of body secreted a lot during night, it can promote the combination of fat, excessive calories will turn into a lot of fat and gather together. Therefore, at supper time, leave off with an appetite.

Q: Shall we only eat fruit for supper?

A: We don’t agree to have fruit instead of meal because the nourishment is not overall. it only contains the vitamin and a little amount of protein, and fiber etc. but the body demands a certain proportion protein, carbohydrate and fat. Nothing but fruit for summer for a long time will result in the malnutrition. We should regard vegetable as principle for supper and have proper amount of rice and meat.

Q: Which will make us fat more easily, milk or yoghurt?

A: Actually, if the total calories’ intake don’t exceed that of we need, neither of milk nor yoghurt will make we fat. But relatively speaking, the calories in yoghurt are more than that in milk. That’s because during the production of yoghurt, in order to get the better flavor, they are added in a great deal of sugar. The calories of these sugars are very high. Besides, we must choose milk with the species of low fat and low sugar.

Attract INTERNATIONAL BUYERS for your properties in 2009!

Eileen Hsu (許小姐) Manhattan NY Real Estate: Real Estate Agent in Manhattan, NY

The New York Times recently reported that real estate agents around the country are ratcheting up their efforts to woo the Russian oligarchs, Irish investors, Korean industrialists and other international cash rich buyers who have been making headlines with lavishing purchases.

With my own client list include 85%Asian investors (doctors, attorneys, financial consultants and professors from China, Taiwan, Hong Kong, Korea, Singapore, Malaysia), 5% European (Italian buyers in fashion business, British buyers in music business), it is very hard to ignore that New York city is a diverse place to live and I begin to think that everyday we are becoming the citizen of the globe.

As we are approaching 2009, it is important to implement extra marketing reach to the international clientele, here are some of my own marketing that I have found effective and they do not cost too much of your advertising dollars.

INTERNET: Clearly, we are all on Activerain and we understand the importance of internet, perhaps build a foreign language website that explain the home buying process of your particular state or area. Each country/state has their own buying procedure, building an information website with a foreign language, that will draw the buyers to you as the expert rather than just another Real Estate agent. My team and myself have build a website: http://www.GoldHouseUSA.com to cater our Asian buyers, the entire website is in Chinese language. You can always find an elancer on http://www.Elance.com to help you translate the content.

NETWORK WITH FELLOW AGENTS OVERSEA: If you are targeting towards Spanish buyers, perhaps the thing to do is to do a little bit of research, find out who is the top Spanish Real Estate agents, and be proactive give them a call or drop them an email in regards to your service in your neighborhood/state and offering them a referral fee. What I also find it helpful is to follow up the phone call with a printed brochure or pamphlet about you or your team with a handwritten note so they have a hard copy when they have a possible referral for you.

NETWORK WITH FELLOW AGENTS IN U.S. : Same as network with oversea agents, find out who are the agents in other U.S. States are doing business the way you want to do business. Reach out to them and let them know that you would like to create a partnership to serve that particular clientel, and of course offering referral fee.

Since my team and I have created this website for Chinese buyers: http://www.GoldHouseUSA.com, we have received lots of positive feedbacks from other Chinese Real Estate agents from all over United states that we have now developed a great network of referral system.

PARTNER UP WITH BILINGUAL REAL ESTATE AGENT: Seek out which agent in your office or area that may need a partnership. Perhaps you have more sales experience than themselves but they are fluent in another language and team up you can faciliate the foreign buyer better?

LOCAL FOREIGN NEWSPAPER: Once you have partner up with the foreign Real Estate agent, you may want to write an article in the foreign language newspaper and do a PR piece about your special services.

OVERSEA FOREIGN NEWSPAPER: Same as above newspaper PR piece, I would try to contact the oversea newspaper and let them know about this special service and have them publish in the oversea foreign newspaper...

Obviously each one of these tips takes research and precise planning, my suggestion would be pick one thing that sounds good to you and start at it. It does not matter where you start, just start... in order to suceed in 2009, we must implement some new marketing strategies to reach new heights.

Best luck to all, contact me anytime shall you have any additional questions or suggestions. Happy Holidays!
