So this concise list will help you pass off as a high society butterfly should the opportunity be forced upon you (for example, being stuck in a lift with one of the Vanderbilt offspring). From vineyard hostage plots to multimillion dollar bottles, fine wines are big business. So sit back, enjoy the list and imagine you’re on a big white yacht, with a tanned, toned deckhand scrubbing the teak beside you as you’re sipping a thousand-dollar flute of Champagne… As if."

10 business bosses who turned to politics - Business - U.S. business - msnbc.com: "Whoever believes politics is big business must have seen this coming. The high levels of accountability from running a corporation and high expectations of seeking a seat in government have many parallels. Amid this confluence of business and political streams, Chief Executive magazine dubbed 2010 “a high-water mark for the CEO as candidate.”

1. How's your blood pressure?
Just because you've boycotted traditional sweets for biscotti and gelato doesn't mean you're completely clear from cardiovascular trouble. 'Women have a tenfold greater risk of death from coronary arterial disease as compared to breast cancer,' says Dr Vivek Gupta, senior cardiologist at Delhi's Indraprastha Apollo hospital.
According to experts at medicinenet.com, approximately 30 percent of cases of essential hypertension are attributed to genetic factors, and people with one or both parents suffering from high blood pressure are twice as likely to have it passed onto them. Since high blood pressure usually creeps in sans any symptoms, caution is critical."

Top 10 Funny Zombie Movie Moments | Top 10 Lists | TopTenz.net: "The first zombie movie was 1932’s White Zombie. It’s not very funny (at least not intentionally funny) and it definitely isn’t scary. Since then, there have been hundreds of zombie movies made, and I think�the best ones are a combination of both. Some use funny moments to relieve the tension between zombie attacks; others use zombie attacks to break up the funny moments. Either way, researching this list was a lot of fun.
Other than my sense of humor, the only other criteria used was that each movie could only be listed once.�Of course, the movies included on this list had to actually be zombie movies. �Sometimes alien-controlled or demonic characters are included in the zombie genre, but I disagree. For example, I’ve disqualified Sam Raimi’s Evil Dead series from this list because the ‘deadites’ featured in these films are actually demon-possessed corpses, not zombies."

Top 10 Foods in a Diet for High Triglycerides
Top 10 Foods in a Diet for High Triglycerides: "Traditional low fat diet for high triglycerides will actually produce counterproductive results, as by limiting food sources of saturated fat, you will trigger your body’s natural response to synthesizing more bad cholesterol to make up for the deficit.
Most statin-based cholesterol lowering drugs do not take care of the underlying causes of triglycerides too high and, in addition, come with a hefty listing of side-effects like, for example, blocking a natural coenzyme CoQ10 production necessary for the heart health. In addition, a majority of people who are on a low-fat diet will naturally tend to consume more carbohydrates that raise your blood sugar and triglycerides levels to fill in the caloric gap."

Thomas Jefferson - Top 10 American Political Prodigies - TIME
Thomas Jefferson - Top 10 American Political Prodigies - TIME: "In 1781, Thomas Jefferson, having served as governor of Virginia, declared he'd had enough of politics. And he wasn't even 40.
In the next two decades, Jefferson would take on many public roles — U.S. minister to France, the nation's first Secretary of State, vice-president under John Adams, and, of course, the third President of the United States of America — but by 1781 he'd already earned a place in the history books. A delegate to the Second Continental Congress, he was just 33 in 1776, when he drafted the remarkable Declaration of Independence. Two years before holding those truths to be self-evident, he penned A Summary View of the Rights of British America while serving in Virginia's House of Burgesses."

The following true stories, however, are not only filled with death and gore; they actually happened. Though often brutal and nonsensical, ritual suicide is real and has occurred throughout history. The motives behind mass suicide are varied. In ancient times and during the Dark Ages it was common for entire groups of people to commit suicide to avoid subjugation to enemy invaders, whilst in the past few centuries ritual suicide has been seen within religious offshoots and collectives who follow cults of the occult."

In Reach for the Skies, which itself reached the fourth spot on the charts, Churchill's famous war speeches are set to music played by the Central Band of the Royal Air Force.

Top 10 money fears and what to do about them
Top 10 money fears and what to do about them
Like it or not, money is an emotional subject. It affects how we live and work, dictates how we spend time and influences our relationships. No wonder it can be a scary subject for many people, and like many important topics, such as conflict and self-image, women and men often deal with their finances differently.
Here are the top 10 money fears experienced by women - and what to do about them.
No. 1: "Bag lady Syndrome" The most documented female money fear is commonly referred to as the "bag lady syndrome," or anxiety about finding yourself suddenly destitute and on skid row. Lily Tomlin, Gloria Steinem, Shirley MacLaine and Katie Couric have all reported suffering from this fear.
Solution: Susan Hirshman, author of Does This Make My Assets Look Fat? urges women to take control of what they can by creating a plan that covers spending, savings and insurance coverage, and updating it every three to five years. "This way you can have a sense of worst-case scenarios and have a plan in place if the worst happens," Hirshman says. Adds Deana Arnett, financial planner based in Manassas, Va.: "Live below your means and don't have a lifestyle that eats up all your income. If you spend less than you earn and save the rest, you will be OK."

Top 10: Tips To Project Ambition
It is an almost universal truth that men are ambitious. Whether that means wanting to be rich beyond your wildest dreams, owning a supercar, dating your dream woman or something more ordinary, like owning your own home, ambition is almost ubiquitous. For a lot of men, however, particularly early in their lives, these aspirations can seem so distant as to be unattainable.
Being able to project your ambitions in a positive and constructive manner can help you in many facets of your life. It can help you climb the career ladder, increasing your status and financial security. Just as important, ambition is hugely attractive to women. You don’t need to be a CEO for a woman to be attracted to you, but she does need to feel that one day, you will be a CEO. The ability to demonstrate that you have that drive and determination, especially when you are new to the workforce, will make her feel that you are going to make her financially secure in the future -- a very desirable trait. So how do you project that ambition without seeming arrogant or allowing it to be all-consuming? Here are 10 things you can do that will show people you mean business.

Top 10: Social Networking Pickup Tips
Want to widen your dating pool, but don’t feel like signing up for Match.com? Maybe you should simply try logging into your Facebook account instead.
Social sites can be used for more than networking and staying in touch with old friends -- they can help you score points with potential partners. With social networking spots, motives are murkier than on matchmaking sites and there’s less room for rejection. You can reconnect with that smoking hot girl from high school because of your shared roots, not because you’re both lonely and looking for love. Or, you can casually ask an online friend to introduce you to a gorgeous gal pal without putting too much on the line.
With sites such as MySpace and Facebook, matches emerge more organically because of shared backgrounds, friends and interests, says Jerry Kaplan, the former CEO of Egghead and founder of Winster.com, a free social network site for singles.
"The new generation of social network sites addresses this issue by offering shared social activities that create a comfortable environment in which to get to know other people without the heavy social pressure," Kaplan says.
Still, there is a fine line between broadening your horizons and going after every broad who pops up in your “People You May Know” box. Just like in the real-life dating world, approach and image are everything. Here are 10 tips for picking up women on social networks like a pro.
