In this digital age, is it any surprise that people would be interested in purchasing jewelry and luxury watches online? We buy everything from our clothes to electronics to our furniture online. We voraciously search for the best deals and discounts and refuse to buy anything full price. If people are okay with buying their groceries online, then there is no harm in buying your next Concord Mariner watch online. There are so many wonderful benefits to shopping online.

One of the best benefits to online shopping is ultimate convenience. You can browse for Movado watches at 4 am wearing just your pajamas with infomercials playing on the TV in the background. You don't have to worry about getting dressed and making a plan to go to the mall. Whenever you have a few moments to spare, you can look at dozens of different websites to find the right watch. Shopping also makes it easier to compare prices. Just open up a few tabs on your browser and you can check out the price on a Movado Series 800 watch to find out who is offering the biggest discount.

Besides finding stores with great discounts, you can also search for coupons. Is there anything more frustrating then getting to the store and forgetting your coupon? And of course the store isn't going to give you the discount, nor will they left you buy it and come back later with the coupon to adjust the price. Just hop onto your favorite search engine and look for coupon codes for that store.

Shipping might be holding some people back, but many websites offer free shipping when you spend over a certain amount of money, which won't be too difficult when we're talking about luxury watches. Even if you do have to pay for it, it's not much more than current gas prices. Returns can be a bit of a nuisance whether you buy online or in a store. But driving to a store will most likely be more annoying than a trip to the post office. Some stores will even offer you a prepaid shipping label if the item needs to be returned.

One final benefit of buying luxury watches online is that there is a much larger selection. Many stores don't have the room to carry every single make and model. An online store is able to store more in their warehouse so they offer a wide range of choices. And if one website doesn't have it, search for another one that does. With so many great features, you'll never want to buy luxury watches in stores again.

The Pool Pump Energy Saver is another breakthrough Australian invention that promises not only tremendous savings but a quieter pump motor as well.

An extremely important feature of this invention is the noise it reduces from existing pump motors due to its energy efficient design. Less noise by approximately 80% will certainly provide a more peaceful environment at home and even to the entire neighborhood. Bickerings brought about by a squeaking, noisy pump that deprives even the dog of their sleep will surely be avoided.

Noise reduction does not stop there though, it also provides filtering and cleaning to the water that flows through it. Such in turn ensures the maintenance of good water quality at a fraction of a cost.

The energy efficient operations of this Pool Pump Energy Saver contribute greatly to the maintenance of the pump itself. Since the pump motor is not subjected to high levels of electricity, less stress is caused on the pump, in turn, less wear and tear.

This energy saver is also quite easy to install. No need for any electrical wiring or connection. Simply plug the existing plug to it then plug it to the main socket.

Unlike other energy-saving products, inventors of this device did not utilize various marketing and advertising campaigns to promote its product. Instead, they focused on product testing in various establishments for over two years and a half and the word-of-mouth campaign of satisfied customers.

To date, this energy saver is being trialled in various establishments and places across Australia particularly the following: Buderim Town Pool, Rivage Royal and Grand Mariner Resorts, Canberra, Gold Coast and Townsville.

It seems that this marketing strategy is effective since the device is now the leading energy saver in the country. As commented by one of its inventors, "Seeing is really believing."

Another advantage of this energy saver over other devices is its patent as approved by Australian Safety Standards. This patent proves the product's full compliance to the rigorous standards set by the body as well as the series of tests it underwent prior to obtaining the patent.

Indeed the Pool Pump Energy Saver is an invention worth banking on. Not only because of its quality and established track record, but also the product testing opportunity it gives to its users. This trial provides them ample time to study the device well particularly its effects as well as the truth of the product claims. Above all, it allows them to determine for themselves the extent of noise reduction it offers and the kind of peaceful environment it provides.

Driving is an activity that needs not only the proper skills but it also needs the driver to have ultimate and great concentration on the road. Being focused on the activity itself gives the driver and its passengers greater chances of not meeting any kind of mishap, collision, crash, or accident.

Even experienced drivers still meet accidents when they become careless when driving. Try to take your eyes off the road for just a couple of seconds. Doing such greatly increases your chances of meeting a disaster. That is why automobile experts and drivers suggest that the best thing to do would be to avoid distractions at all costs. By avoiding them, you are also keeping yourself safe along with your passengers, other motorists, and pedestrians.

Try not to eat in the car. You see, when you are eating while driving, you tend to fumble around for the food. You could drop it or even try to drive using just one hand. Doing these things actually could be the cause of a major problem.

Avoid fiddling around with your car's controls. It could be your radio, your car's heaters, the air conditioner, or its mirrors. Experts suggest that if you would like to change the status of these controls, it would be better if you pulled over first and do the adjustments once you are safe on the side of the road. When everything has already been adjusted as per your preference, then would be the time to go back on the road. You may be wasting some minutes while doing so but remember that you are keeping yourself alive by doing that.

Cellular phones should not be used while driving. If you want to place a call, pull over first. That way, you can concentrate on dialing the right numbers and listening well on the conversation.

'Money money everywhere but nary some wealth for me.' Excusing my taking liberty with the Rime of the Ancient Mariner, is this a sentiment you might express?

Annually over 14 trillion dollars are at work in the U.S. economy alone. Worldwide over 54 trillion dollars of recognized value flows. Hundreds of billions of Dollars, Euros and Yen change hands daily through millions of transactions. The world is awash in money as it is awash in desires. Billions of people, trillions of dollars, limitless wants and needs, yet still some struggle to make ends meet. Where is the disconnect? Does money make our world go round?

After all, what is money and why does it matter?

Money is a medium of exchange, a unit of account and a store of value - whether it's in a coin, a note, a commodity, a resource, a structure, a product or a service. Money equates to value, to worth. Worth, ultimately however, is the ability to satisfy a want, a need, or a desire. Money is essentially a psychologically shared provision.

You see money is the creative invention of the human mind, made possible by our ability to abstractly accord value to symbols and infer trust to agreements. Money is a social device; a social tool. To understand and accept value in any thing - a paper bank note, a gold coin, a credit card, or a contract - requires the consent of individuals and the community. Money exists because of, and has evolved as, a product of human relationships.

The money or wealth an individual controls is not so much about "stuff" as it is about relationships. Any object only has value relative to a human being's desires. If no one wants an object or service, that object or service has no value - the object or service is worthless. Money moves to meet people's wants and needs.

In our expanding universe resources are unlimited yet by a shortsighted focus on the power of money people often face apparent scarcity. This focus on money has produced a collective of haves and have nots. Perceiving scarcity people turn from cooperation to competition. Money, in truth however, is not an end, is not a thing, it is a means - a means to satisfy desires. So if money moves to meet desires, and desires are the province of people, the real key to wealth is relationship.

The money that flows through you is a measure of the wants, needs and desires you satisfy. So, if you have not achieved the financial success you desire, if you are not where you want to be, if you seek to achieve a level of greatness, it is time to start building relationships.

While it is said, "Money makes the world go round," realize it is not money that matters. It is not things, it is not power - it is people. The wants, needs and desires of people move the world. If you intend to be wealthy - build relationships. Relationships, not money, make the world go round.

I have to admit I usually leave state parks to people with boats and bikes, but Blue Spring State Park caters admirably for those who want to amble around and enjoy the natural sights. This National Gold Medal Winning State Park has superb facilities as well as being Florida's premiere manatee refuge.

What to Expect at Blue Spring State Park

The 1/3 mile boardwalk runs beside the Blue Spring Run through a shady hardwood hammock. The natural beauty has everyone reaching for their cameras. Soon there are gasps as eyes focus on the shoals of fish and the manatees, the stars of the show, in the clear waters below. The manatees swim into the lagoon in cold weather as the prolific Blue Spring disgorges 104 million gallons of water per day at a balmy 72°F. In contrast, the St Johns River where the manatees feed ranges from 50F in winter to 80F in summer.

Gazing into the spring waters from the viewing platforms is like gazing into nature's aquarium. Sunfish, longnose gar, tarpon, turtles and other water-loving creatures can clearly be seen against the white sandy bottom of the shallow lagoon. The waters are so clear that visitors can even see the scars from boat propellers on the manatees' soft grey hide. These gentle giants can reach 9-10 feet in length and weigh up to 3000 lb, which is amazing on a strictly vegetarian diet of seagrass!

Things to Do at Blue Spring State Park

For an even better view of the pristine springs and the wildlife, hire canoes and kayaks from the kiosk or book a three-hour guided kayaking adventure with a naturalist/guide. If tour boats are more your idea of a day out, join the twice-daily trip up the St Johns River on quiet pontoon boats for an excellent two-hour narrated tour. Every trip is different with alligators, fish, manatees, red-bellied turtles, wading birds, cooters and even the possibility of a black bear sighting.

Visitors can snorkel and dive from the swimming dock to see the source of the blue spring and the cave which goes down about 120 feet. Take a self-guided tour of the original 1872 Thursby House, the enviably located home of Louis Thursby and his family who settled here. A campsite, overnight cabins, children's play area and a 4-mile backwoods trail (each way) complete the excellent amenities. All you need to bring is a picnic and a bathing suit!

Additional Info

The best time to see the manatees is obviously in winter, from November to April, but here's a tip from a volunteer warden. Visit in the morning, after a cold night, and you will see as many as 200 of these endangered creatures that have moved into the warmer spring waters from the chilly St Johns River during the night. This is a sight few people in the world are privileged enough to see and future generations may never get the chance.
