Are Legends Born or Made?

Are legends born, or made? To find out Heineken®, as part of its latest global campaign ‘Voyage’, is undertaking it’s most daring experiment yet. This campaigns mission is to truly test what men are made of by dropping them into the wilderness with nothing but a plane ticket to get home, a tuxedo and the nearest airport is miles away. I have always believed that when given no choice, our adrenaline kicks into high gear and we can survive anything as human kind. Let’s see what this campaign shows us about that theory of mine.

This video is introducing you to ‘Voyage’, a new campaign from Heineken® that takes different men from across the world and drops them in remote global locations with nothing but the most basic of supplies and directions. The result is ‘Dropped’ – a series of episodic adventures as we follow the participants to see if they can survive.

On the Heineken® Dropped YouTube channel viewers will be able to follow each ‘Dropped’ voyage, access documentary-style content and also contribute their own video entries to the ‘casting couch’ - with a chance to be able to partake in their own Dropped voyage.

To me, it sounds as if ‘Dropped’ shall be placing people based on their own personality traits, let’s say someone thinks that they are the most outgoing person in the world, then they will have to face that personality trait they feel they have and allow the Voyage to test that beyond normal limits. I may be wrong, but I think that is the general concept I gathered from watching the Heineken® Dropped YouTube channel, what do you think about this new campaign?

Is Your Broadband Fast Enough?

What carrier do you use for your broadband coverage? Here, where I live, I have to use whatever is available and the fastest possible option because of the fact that the Internet is where I make a living from. Writing, publishing, editing and using social media is all my avenue of money making, so without any form of Internet connection I would be out of a job. Without a job, there is no income from me. Without income, well you know where that will lead. No where fast.

Getting back to the talk of broadband service, virgin media broadband offers up to 60mb and a Virgin phone for a low price. It appears that Virgin media broadband has a few packages available to save you extra money in the first six months. I personally love when a company can save you money in the first 6-12 months because that can really help you to get on your feet icome wise then upgrade as needed later. I am all for saving money now and waiting til later to see if you need to find another savings with this company or if you can afford it.

For me, having even a six month time period of savings off of the regular costs makes me able to save money for that period to end. I love being able to save money in the forefront so that I can put that extra money in savings or pay other bills with it. Having broadband is important, even without someone like me who works from home, because it allows relatives, friends and loved ones to stay connected.

So Many Digital TV Packages Available

by brandyellen // August 27, 2013 // Comments off

As our family works to try to see what costs we can cut while I work on getting back into a full time hours schedule we are looking around at cutting the cost of our digital television, after all, the adults in the house very rarely watch it so what is the point in over paying for something. While upon our search I noticed that a company called BT has digital TV in some areas and that BT packages offer a wide range of not only television, but phone and broadband as well. Currently BT has over 18 million customers in the UK alone with service available in over 170 countries, so while they may not be an option here for our budget needs, it’s cool to see what others have for options on our planet Earth.

Having a combined package, no matter what company you are able to use, ultimately saves money across the board but what happens when your package is more than you need? Make sure while searching for the right-for-you telecommunications company that they not only offer a variety but that if you wish to downgrade a package deal that you won’t be stuck wondering how you will ever get out of the packaged deal. Most companies will work well with you to ensure that you are getting your television, broadband internet and phone needs met. I love how great customer service reps are for most telecommunications companies in that they will speak with you, evaluate what you may need for service and package you up with the most affordable and realistic option for the family.

Whether you use BT or another telecommunications carrier, it’s all about ensuring that your family is staying within budget and having your needs met in a packaged deal if need be. What company do you use for telecommunications?

Playing No Deposit Online Casinos

I have heard of many people who play online casinos, it’s fun for people who can’t travel to a casino and play in real life. I can completely understand the idea of playing a game to entertain yourself, after all with busy lives these days it seems we all need a little hobby to keep the mind fresh for a new day. As with any online game system you can find bonuses out there as well as codes to make more money with the game or get more lives, what have you. It all depends upon what game you are playing for what type of bonus you may be seeking, for online casino games you would be looking for a casino bonus so that you can make your money back, I assume.

Placing bets and playing online casinos is not my sort of thing in all realty, I haven’t really grown up playing too many casino type games where I would be able to reap the benefits from such an online game. I can, however, see the fun behind getting a no deposit bonus so that you can play online casinos cheaper and hopefully have a better percent rate of making money back. Based on most of what I have read with online casino game play is that there is a deposit required for a majority of casino games, which makes sense to me because I can assume you have to have betting chips in real life which cost money.

There are benefits to casino playing online because you can search out no deposit casino bonus codes which will in turn help you to start off playing in an online casino environment without paying out the butt for deposits. I am all for saving money, even if that is with online casino game play. For those who play online casinos, you may understand this concept of doing a no bonus code, basically once you meet the requirements, you will end up having a maximum payout of even $100 using the no deposit casino bonuses.

Whatever your online pleasure is, I can completely understand why one would rather play casinos online than try to travel somewhere to do such fun. Hopefully this will help those who are seeking no deposit bonuses for online casinos now or in the future. Happy game playing friends!
