Does auto repair scare you? Do you wish you could find out what your repair might cost before you get a heart stopping bill? Or maybe you just need an easy way to find a good local repair shop. Repairpal.com might be the answer you are looking for. Repair Pal is a website that helps you get an honest estimate of what your auto repair might cost. It gives you listings of local repair shops, with user ratings and reviews. You can get information on a particular car, and even track your service.

Let's say you live in San Diego. You own a Ford F-150 manufactured in 1999. Your truck is giving you a check engine light. On Repair pal, you can find out some common reasons for seeing a check engine light, get a listing of auto repair centers in your area, and if you know the cause, get an estimate of what it might cost. All in one place.


The best part of the website is the option to track your service. You can input your cars information, than record all the service you have done to the vehicle. Oil changes, new brakes, transmission repair, headlight replacements, etc. Now instead of stuffing your glove compartment with all your past service records, you can store them online and access them any time.

The directory of available repair shops is a really important feature of the site. It gives you a neatly laid out list of shops near you with an 'x'star rating based on user reviews. You can click on any of the links you like and see detailed information about the store, and view a map of where it is located.


After looking over the site, I signed up and put my Buick in the system so I could keep track of all the maintenance that I put in to it. I was really impressed by how clean the layout of the site was, and how easy it was to navigate. In mere minutes I was able to, based on the information I provided about my car and my location, find an estimate for the work I needed done and choose the right shop for the job. I have an appointment on Tuesday.

Men's fashion is constantly evolving and so are designers. It's not uncommon to find modern fashion taking inspiration from classical and often established and innovative looks of the past. Contemporary fashion designers give motivate and inspire us with their ideas and fine creations. The world of fashion will always have its established names, the likes of D&G and Pradas while new and upcoming designers will also be trying to establish their names and leave a mark in the fashion world. In this article I intend to keep you updated on the type of designers you should be watching this year and on my list are four whose work is getting plenty of attention, and whose amazing talent is sure to see them climb the Alexander McQueen fashion ranks very soon.

Ozwald Boateng

Ozwald Boateng is one of London's highly talented tailors; he's quickly making a name for himself in America as well. Recognized for his innovative tailoring, he is responsible for introducing swanky Savile Row tailoring to the new generation of fashion seekers in both Europe and America. Clients of Boateng's classically refined look include Laurence Fishburne, Jamie Foxx and Mick Jagger. His works drips with elegance and sophistication, his collection of suits, coats and blazers among other pieces, with luxurious fabrics and plush colors bring a perfect amount of flair to any man's closet.

Michael Bastian

Bastian was once employed by Bergdorf Goodman as a fashion director, he then branched out from this role to pursue his own fashion aspirations. His goal was to design clothing that appealed to every man's daily wear necessities and by looking at his fall debut collection, it's obvious that he achieved his purpose. Michael Bastian's collection mirrors the American classic design. He redesigns and adds flair to basic and generally boring pieces. In doing so, men are given impeccably tailored suits, luxurious knits and refined trenches and other outerwear.

Keanan Duffty

While style and elegance are always an appreciated touch to any garment, a rock "n" roll edge is equally as welcome when it comes to men's fashion. Keanan is quickly becoming the go-to man for such peculiar edginess. Since 2000, Duffty's designs have been gaining worldwide recognition by celebrities, including Bowie and Justin Timberlake. Given the rock "n" roll theme of Duffty's apparel, his collections are always a little bit glam, a touch chaotic and a whole lot of fun. Combining cutting-edge designs, unconventional fabrics and British iconography, Duffty's designs help the inner rock star emerge from the wearer.

Tim Hamilton

Tim Hamilton's mission is to bring American sensibility back to men's clothing and to add luxury to staple pieces. Conventional items are given a modern flair, taking the preppy-dressed man to a new level of conservative wear.

His designs are preppy and entirely masculine providing a back to the fundamentals to fashion. Denims, cardigans and Polos may sound like a conservative combination but when brought together with contemporary design, such pieces give an updated look to a man's wardrobe.

While strolling the internet, I came across something that I think is kind of unique. There are plenty of places to shop online, and most of them search across multiple sites to find you the best deals. I found a site that seemed to take it a step further. The site is designed to read like a wiki. Like wikipedia or any number of other wiki style sites you find a topic, and the wiki tells you all about that topic. In the article are links to related items about what you searched for.

Shopwiki does something similar, but with items like Men's Pants. From there, you can search within the category to sub-categories like the type and style of pant you are looking for. Once you've reached the item you are looking for, Shopwiki will show you matching items, the list of stores they are available at, and than show you the best choice as well. The site looks at any online retailer, not just sponsored advertisers vying to be at the top of the list.

I decided to give it a try. I went looking for a suit for business meetings and weddings. I needed something versatile. I navigated to Men's Suits. From there I was presented with a wiki style page with a list of choices, and details about those choices. “What's a Suit?” was the first choice on the list. So even if you've never done this before, you'll be pretty knowledgeable by the time you are done.

I chose a Double Breasted suit. From the list of choices of retailers, I decided to refine my search. In the top search box I added 'charcoal' to the list and got a list of charcoal double breasted suits. The amount of choices I was presented with was astounding. The best part was, some of these suits looked fantastic and were incredibly reasonable in terms of price. The site was clean, and easy to read. Than I realized something. I saw more options I didn't notice before. A slider bar for things like price, and color, and check boxes for selecting a certain few retailers or select brand names.

Wow. I found a suit in less than 10 minutes. My wife thinks it's wonderful, and so do I.

Buying the right eyeglasses can be a chore. With so many frame styles to choose from, it's difficult to find the right match. It shouldn't be too bulky, or so thin that you could break them easily. What do you do if you want a pair of glasses that will suit your needs without sacrificing style?

A good place to start is Rimless eyeglasses. Rimless eyeglasses are frames that have little or no frame wrapping around the lenses themselves. This gives the glasses a more streamlined look, and makes them less obtrusive. Two styles that are quite prominent are the full rimless which only anchor the lens at the very edges where the stems that fit over your ears attach. The other is what is known as a half-rim. In this design the top half of the lenses are covered by a frame, but the bottom is not. Both designs look trendy, and with less frame, the glasses are light weight as well

Recently, my friend Paul broke up with his longtime girlfriend and wanted to get out and try something different. He confided in me that he was sick of the club scene, bars were not his thing, and despite his mothers insistence, he was convinced he wouldn't find a date in church.

I convinced Paul to set up a couple of online profiles on dating sites to see what would happen. He made a few connections, but something still didn't seem right. He felt that for him, just putting up a profile wasn't enough, he wanted some adventure. I suddenly had an idea I thought he would like. Speed dating

There are numerous websites of wholesale Ed Hardy collections which sure go easy on one's pocket. Making it successful with a sought after designer label at such attractive prices as 20 and 30$ is definitely a great bargain! Who would not want to sport a similar T shirt or a cap like Madonna? The collection draws its name from the man himself-Ed Hardy, a native of California USA known world over for his technically brilliant art collection of tattoos. He spent a few years in Japan acquiring a rich knowledge of traditional Japanese art and tattoo designs which he later incorporated in his art collection
