Learn To Read Faster

By Jay Polmar

Many people do not believe they have the ability to read faster because if they had, they already would be reading faster. And, they've gotten so many years of proof (like taking their current age and subtracting 4 to 6 years) and that read in the same way --- yes for years!

Not only is it a well established behavior pattern, but you also firmly believe that that's normal for you. And they also consider that if they try to read faster, they'll lose comprehension.

Yes, too many people consider that by reading faster theyll lose their level of comprehension. And that;s why some people think that "Speed Reading" is not a good phrase, because they assume that people are just speeding and not reading.

To help people become effective readers we do several things:

* Show them how to unlearn old slow habits that hold you back

* Teach you some great new methods that will increase reading speed, data processing and quality of comprehension

* Shift from the plain reader to a reader who harvests knowledge

Years ago the Chinese moved from using an abacus to a calculator to perform calculations and now they are shifting to micro, mini-computers and they operates many gigabytes of data and knowledge.

This isn't only about reading faster which will always happen when you train yourself to be a more efficient reader. Its about learning how to do things differently. And, in that way you are going to get a far more effective result, and get it faster than you ever thought could be possible.

You can take your reading speed and double or triple it or more. The most dramatic impact of doing things differently will be the impact of the development of an automatic file system " and using success strategies to retrieve the right data for exams, presentation, or any person, before you even begin to do what others call "Speed Reading".

So effectively you learn to be reading smart right now " somewhat similar to how you read, right now but much faster.

If you are not an efficient reader already, reading takes away your free time. When you realize that 60-80% of what you read is irrelevant dribble, and you cut through it so fast, that you are breaking speed limits " and you read with better comprehension and recall.

And it is just about doing a few things differently. - 20763

Edmonton Wins CFL Shootout Over Calgary

By Ross Everett

The Edmonton Eskimos survived a wild back and forth CFL shootout against the Calgary Stampeders before prevailing 38-35 to take over sole possession of first place in the CFL West. Ricky Ray hit Fred Stamps with a 23 yard touchdown pass with just nine seconds to play to earn the victory, erasing the lead that Calgary had earned with their own TD pass less than a half minute earlier.

After the game, winning QB Ricky Ray said that he enjoyed playing in the shootout:

"That was a ton of fun. In the CFL you get to play in a lot of games like this, especially against a guy like (Calgary quarterback Henry) Burris, who has done this to us. It's great to come out on the winning end of a shoot-out like that. It's a great uplift for the team. It's a huge win for us."

With a bye week on deck, Eskimos head coach Richie Hall said that the outcome couldnt have been timed any better:

"Regardless of what happens, we are coming back in first place. Now we have one up on Calgary. It's going to be a dogfight for all the teams in the West and any chance you get to win, especially a win like this, it's a real bonus. It's great for our confidence."

Calgarys Burris remembered a very similar game last year where Edmonton won by the same margin on a last play touchdown:

"They got us last year in this situation and of course you didn't think it was going to happen again or even could happen again. It felt so great to get that late touchdown and with 38 seconds on the clock nobody was even thinking about last year. We had to stop Jackson and we didn't. And we had to stop Ray and we didn't. Kudos to Edmonton."

Both teams have a bye next week. Calgary returns to action on Aug. 28 in Toronto while the Eskimos will next play on Aug. 29 when they host Hamilton. The two CFL provincial rivals from Alberta will face each other twice more this season. - 20763

An Exciting New Experience as A Lucid Dreamer

.
0 comments

By Lesley Groft

You have heard about lucid dreaming and think it is something you would like to do. That is a good starting point but exactly how do you begin and what are the steps to being a successful lucid dreamer?

It's important to think about why you'd like to become a lucid dreamer, too. There are a number of benefits to dreaming this way, but first we should look at normal sleep, so we'll understand them.

When you go to sleep, you get into bed, close your eyes for a certain length of time, and either dream or just see black for a few hours and then wake up! It isn't very interesting now is it?

Normal sleep just seems to serve the purpose of simply refreshing ourselves in order to live out the next day. But what if you could control that period of time that you have dreams?

Consider the idea of taking control of your own dreams. What would it feel like to purpose what direction your dreams would take you? Explore new worlds that are only limited to your control and imagination. This is what it means to be a lucid dreamer, kind of the ultimate fantasy world where you call all the shots.

So if you want to become a lucid dreamer how do you do it? There are actually two ways. The first way is having a dream-initiated lucid dream (DILD), which is where the dreamer is in a dream and then realizes that they are, restoring their sense of consciousness within the dream.

The second method is called WILD, and stands for wake-initiated lucid dream. This is when you start out awake and fall asleep, but do not experience a change in consciousness levels. This is the process of simply entering a dream, the same way you'd walk through a door, instead of waking up inside the dream.

How exactly do you induce either one of these lucid dream states?

Dream Recall

If you'd like to lucid dream, perhaps one of the most successful way of doing so is known as dream recall. Dream recall is simply the ability to remember one's dreams. By remembering your dreams, you are able to recognize them when you are sleeping, because most likely, you will have the same dream, or at least aspects of it, more than once.

To make dream recall easier you can keep a dream journal. This is a notebook or pad of paper that has the sole purpose of recording your dreams. Whenever you have a dream, you should write all you can remember in the journal as soon as you wake up. The longer you are awake the more details of the dream that will be lost.

Mnemonic Induction of Lucid Dreams (MILD)

This is a technique that was developed by Dr. Stephen LaBerge, one of the lead scientists studying lucid dreaming. The intent here is to simply tell yourself that you will remember something, like an object for example and then in the dream, when you see this object you will realize it is a dream.

Wake-Back-to-Bed (WBTB)

The process here is to go to sleep, doing nothing but setting your alarm to wake you up a few hours later (5 or 6). Once you wake up, DO NOT go back to sleep. Instead, do something else like read for a while, or think as much as you can about lucid dreaming for around an hour then go back to bed.

According to Stephen LaBerge, there is a 60% success rate of this technique. The reason why is that you would have woken up during the process of sleep, meaning that your mind is not fully aware of this, and are still in the middle of REM cycle. So basically, it's like going to your mind and telling it that you want to lucid dream.

Cycle Adjustment Technique

This was created by Daniel Love, and what it is, is setting your alarm to wake you up an hour and a half before your normal time. Once you've adjusted to waking up early, alternate your alarm to wake you up normally and early. During times you are to wake up normally, you're body will already be ready to wake up early, and therefore, you will be likely to be awake in your dream.

Wake-Initiation of Lucid Dream (WILD)

This method was described before. If you would like to achieve a lucid dream this way, all you have to do is to keep your mind awake while you body falls asleep. This is perhaps the most interesting way of entering a lucid dream. It is as if you are getting ready to watch a movie. You are in the real world, you sit on your couch, you turn on the TV and press play (starting to sleep), the screen is black (in the same way as when your eyes are closed), and all you have to do is wait for the movie to actually start.

To get into this correct frame of mind if you will there are a few tricks you can use. Focus seems to be key so try to focus your mind on things like your breathing, counting, perhaps chant or meditate. In a way, you are practicing self-hypnosis. Use this technique when you are not extremely tired, perhaps during a late nap.

Recent technological advances mean that dreaming masks and other useful devices have been developed. They contain strobe lights and other devices that are believed to induce lucid dreaming.

The most reliable and easiest way of inducing a lucid dream may be listening to binaural beats sound frequencies through headphones.

The sounds bring the two sides of the brain in synch. Your brainwaves are then converted to REM waves the time during sleep when you dream and the frequency at which lucid dreams occur.

With self-hypnosis and a conscious preparedness before you go to sleep anyone can practice lucid dreaming. - 20763

Deciding Between Full-Service Brokerage Company Or A Discount Service

.
0 comments

By Tara Millar

Attempting to choose between a full-service real estate brokerage company or a discount service could be a difficult decision to make. After all, doing business with a full-service real estate brokerage may end up in paying out several thousands of money in commission fees. At the same time, a full-service brokerage offers variety of services a discount service cannot. As a result, it is essential to look at several things into consideration when trying to determine what type of service is appropriate for you.

Getting to know the Market

Among the vital factors to take into consideration when deciding on the form of service you need is the market. If it is a seller's market, properties are selling hastily and at great prices, so you may not need a full-service brokerage to aid you find your property sold at the cost you are requiring. If it is a buyer's market, then again, trying to move a home may be pretty not easy. In this instance, the competence and extra labor required to get your home offered at the best possible worth can be worth paying a little more.

Getting Professional Images

Including excellent pictures with your listing is a necessary part of getting it sold. Listing without images are usually passed up completely by possible buyers and those with poor quality photographs are commonly set aside. When you employ a full service firm to manage the marketing of your house, a professional photographer will probably be introduced in. They will capture numerous photographs and the full service company sort through the shots so they can get the ones that portray the property in the most favorable light. The full-service agency can even have the photos cropped and resized as a way to draw attention to the home's most positive traits. Using a discount service, on the other hand, you are not going to be given a quality photograph to help attract a bigger number of interested purchasers.

Advertising Materials

Many discount brokerages tend not to make an effort with placing sign in the yards of the houses they have listed. Nonetheless, such signs are a necessary kind of advertisement that can help get your house sell more promptly. A few data which is commonly found on these signs include:

* Main office telephone number * The agent's voice mail or own cell phone number * A Web page address where additional data may be obtained

The signage may also incorporate specific info concerning the property that sets it apart from other properties in the community.

In addition to placing a sign in front of your property, a full-service brokerage will also produce a spread of other marketing materials to help sell your property. This may even consist of producing four-color flyers coupled with direct mail pieces.

Simply put, you must think about the market along with the quality of service you demand to receive from your real estate brokerage company. If you want to have your property sold as quickly as possible and if you would like to possess a great possibility of getting the price you are considering, employing a full-service brokerage firm is possibly to be worth the extra expense. - 20763

A Business Consultant's Value Is In His Contact Base: Take Your Company Public!

.

By James Scott

A Corporate Consultants Value Is In His Contact Base: Transform Your Company Overnight! If you're seeking the services of a consultant you're most likely in need of corporate structuring or a strategic company turnaround for a capital raise or to go public. Hiring the right consultant is crucial if you are going to succeed with your venture.

Your consultant should, obviously, have the knowhow and track record for succeeding in fine tuning companies to cater to what industry investors are seeking but they must also possess the contact base to streamline the process so that you don't lose time to gain that stealthy edge over your competitors who are attempting to do the same thing.

Your consultant should maintain an active database that acts as his 'special forces' munitions arsenal of 10,000's of real, viable contacts in scores of industries so that he can assist you in even the most mundane, minute aspects of your strategy with solid corporate alliances and contacts that will make your venture stand out like a beacon of light in your industry that beams its florescent light in the windows of potential clients, partners, contractors and anyone else that can assist your company in achieving its desired ambitions. Your consultant will structure and categorize parts of your company that you didn't even know existed yet are crucial to its development.

The reality is that you should have a separate group of strategic partners for every individual product and ever individual service that your company offers. For example, when I consult with companies that have, say, 10 products, my goal would be five to seven strategic partners per product for a range of fifty to seventy strategic partners that my client will work with for co-op advertising and marketing efforts, branding strategies and sales initiatives. Most companies don't even consider this aspect to their business but it is absolutely vital.

When you find a consultant or corporate strategist that you are ready to hire, after you have thoroughly evaluated them, have an in-depth conversation about their ideas for strategic partners and how they intend on facilitating this process to help you achieve your goals. - 20763

UFC 85 Flashback: Alves Dominates Hughes

.
0 comments

By Ross Everett

A day after failing to make weight for his fight against Matt Hughes, Thiago Alves dominated the former UFC welterweight champion en route to a 2nd round TKO victory. The main event at UFC 85 in London was somewhat anticlimactic to the fans at the O2 Arena who considered the semifinal matchup between Manchester's Michael Bisping and Jason Day the biggest fight on the card.

Hughes didn't make any excuses following his one sided loss, saying simply that hes a good fighter and he got me. The longtime king of the UFCs welterweight division also gave notice that his career as an active fighter was drawing to a close, suggesting that he had one fight left and challenging Matt Serra in what presumably would be his retirement match.

The end came early in the 2nd round as Hughes was caught coming in by a devastating knee strike. He fell to the canvas in a heap and referee Herb Dean was jumping in to stop the contest before Alves could follow up with any punches.

Michael Bisping simply overwhelmed Jason Day en route to a lopsided TKO victory. Bisping built upon the improved boxing skills he demonstrated at UFC 83 by unveiling an impressive ground and pound attack. Day never really got anything going and by the last minute of the fight was simply trying to cover up to prevent damage from Bispings elbows and hammer fists.

In other action, Mike Swick used an array of high kicks and a 7 reach advantage to coast to a unanimous decision over Marcus Davis. Davis, a former professional boxer, was unable to get inside against his lanky opponent and was never really in the fight. Like Bisping, Swick may have made an excellent career choice by moving down in weight.

A controversial point deduction for a strike to the back of the head cost Nate Marquardt his match against Thales Leites. Marquardt was solidly in charge for the entire fight, but suffered a point deduction for an illegal knee strike in round one. While that infraction was valid, replays of the 2nd round deduction for the strike to the back of the head gave the impression that he was penalized for a legal strike to the side of the head.

In the opening PPV match, another controversial ending saw Fabrico Werdum defeat Brandon Vera by 1st round KO. The fight had been evenly contested up until the stoppage, with Werdum scoring a couple of takedown and Vera countering with some effective punching. Late in the first round, Werdum got a full mount and began to fire a series of punches. Vera was clearly defending himself and didnt appear to be hurt at all when the referee jumped in to stop the fight. Vera said that hed answered that he was OK when asked by ref Dan Miragliotta and that he was just trying to ride out the round from that position. Mirgliotta was also the referee in the Kimbo Slice/James Thompson fight, and some have suggested that matchup was also stopped prematurely. - 20763

By John Jones

If you have made the decision to take cran operator training, there are a few things you need to know before you sign up or enroll into a program. It is important that any school you might be thinking of that offers such programs is certified. They should be certified by the National Association of Heavy Equipment Training Schools or NAHETS.

National Association of Heavy Equipment Training Schools offers several different programs that you can receive certifications from. They have schools all over the country so there more than likely is one in your area. These schools that are members of the National Association of Heavy Equipment Training Schools all must follow the requirements to be a member. Those requirements are a full time college president, full time director of placements, full time financial aid director, admissions director, heavy equipment director, certified heavy equipment training instructors, minimum of twenty acres to train on, two to four classrooms, and no business dealings going on at the campus or training site.

The programs they offer are Heavy Equipment Operator 1, Heavy Equipment Operator 2 and Mobile Crane Operations. All of these programs are taught by certified instructors and all are members of the National Association of Heavy Equipment Training Schools.

Heavy Equipment Operator 1 consists of learning the basics about the heavy equipment industry as well as learning the basics about operating heavy equipment. This is also a requirement if the student is going for level II or level III. If the student is not going onto other levels then they will have the opportunity to find work at an entry level. They will get a certification when they finish this level and will be able limited to just basic use of backhoes, wheel loaders, skid steers and tractors. To qualify for this program you need a valid drivers license, complete the application and be accepted into the program.

The Heavy Equipment Operator II is a program that is more advanced than program I and the student will learn a lot more difficult equipment than in the earlier program. When they graduate from this program they will have a better chance at getting an entry level or higher with this certification. This program equips you with skills from program I and adds these pieces of heavy equipment as well, water pulls, forklifts and bulldozers. Requirements to get into this program is certification from program I, drivers license, application and acceptance.

Crane Operation program is one of the more advanced programs that is offered. In order to qualify for this program the student must either have certifications in both Heavy Equipment Operator I and II. Or they can have on the job experience that qualifies them. Both of these must be verifiable. If the student is unable to get verification then they can take a basic skills test and if they pass they will be admitted as long as they have a drivers license and a completed application.

Make sure that when you are looking for a school that offers this training that you ask them if they are certified by NAHETS and do not be afraid to ask them for proof of their certification. - 20763

Use The Incredible Power Of Your Subconscious Mind

.
0 comments

By Geoff Vincent

Most people are already aware of the concept of having a 'subconscious' mind as well as a 'conscious' mind. On the other hand, not many people actually realize just how powerful the subconscious mind can be. In fact, it is without a doubt one of the most powerful tools you have at your disposal, but you need to bear in mind that while your subconscious mind can be your best friend, it can also be your worst enemy, since it's the subconscious mind that essentially controls the life you live. So, what exactly is the subconscious mind, and why is it important that we pay attention to it?

Even though many professionals have tried to convince us otherwise, the vast majority of people acknowledge the fact that they have a subconscious mind, and that it is literally a mind within a mind. As such, one could compare it to a control board, in that it is able to direct us to carry out certain actions and to think certain thoughts. You could also view it as being that voice inside your head that you hear when you're in times of trouble. Of course, each person's subconscious mind communicates with them differently from the next. In other words, no two people have the same sort of subconscious mind even if they have been together since birth, and even if they grew up under the exact same conditions. In fact, not even identical twins have the same subconscious mind as each other.

If you take a minute to think about it, you'll realize that you've often heard your inner mind communicating with you. For example, you could have been on the brink of making an extremely important decision when something in your mind told you to back off. Hopefully, if you did back off, it was the right thing to do. Unfortunately though, that self same inner voice can also be a hindrance, in that it can often tell you that you cannot do something, when in fact there's no reason why you shouldn't be able to. It could for example manage to convince you that you're simply not good enough, or that you're not very attractive. As such, we can see that the subconscious mind is in essence what you think of yourself deep down.

Of course, if those thoughts which come from deep within are negative, then there's not much chance that you will ever be able to enjoy the type of life you long for. On a more positive note; it is possible to change the way a subconscious mind thinks, and in so doing, you can successfully changed the way you live your life so that you can enjoy it to the fullest.

In order to achieve this, many people rely on affirmations so that they can change the way they think. Affirmations are essentially positive statements which one can repeat to oneself several times each day. Unlike subliminal messaging scripts, affirmations don't require you to spend any money, simply because you can do it yourself at home. The first step you need to take is to start thinking about which aspect of your life you would like to change, and then you can follow up by thinking about yourself.

If for example you want to lose weight, then instead of thinking of yourself as being overweight, you should be repeating to yourself a statement like, 'my weight is absolutely perfect'. The more you enforce this message upon yourself, the more effective it will be. Ideally, you should write it down on a piece of paper which you can keep in your pocket and you should place a copy of it in any area of your home where you spend a good amount of time. In fact, you could even have it has a screen saver on your computer. Providing you repeat this message enough times, your subconscious mind will eventually pick up on the idea that this is what it should be thinking.

In this sort of scenario, you would soon begin smoking less and less until you reached that point where you were able to kick the habit altogether. Of course, this is just one example but the same approach can be applied to any aspect of your life.

If you're still not sure then let's take a look at a different scenario, and one which you more than likely experienced before yourself. You wake up in the morning and realize you're going to be late for work, and the first thing that comes to mind, is that you say to yourself you can't believe it's going to be another one of those days. After getting out of the shower you get dressed only to realize that you can't remember where you put your keys. Yes, it's definitely going to be one of those days. After some frantic searching you find your keys and head out to your car but unfortunately your dog has messed right in the center of the pathway and now you have it all over the underneath of your shoe. Even when you do eventually to get to work, you're faced with one problem after another. In fact it gets steadily worse until it reaches a point where you firmly believe it cannot get worse than what it already is, only to discover it gets significantly worse.

Of course the vast majority of people will blame this all on coincidence, but believe me, there is no such thing as coincidence. In fact there's a reason for everything that happens, and when you have this sort of day the reason is usually your subconscious mind.

In recent times books such as 'The Secret' have tried extremely hard to explain this phenomena in scientific terms which is why it is now known as the 'Law of Attraction', which states that a person's subconscious mind not only responds and reacts to real life situations, but that it actually plays a part in creating such situations.

Even though some people may consider this to sound a little crazy, quantum physics is however in agreement with this theory. In fact, it has already been proven that matter is linked intrinsically to the mind of the observer. Interestingly enough, many religions have been preaching this long before science came along and proved it.

What you need to bear in mind is that because you can create your own reality with your subconscious mind, it is possible to create a reality of your choice. In fact, some of the wealthiest people in history have become wealthy simply because they have consistently believed and visualized themselves acquiring a vast amount of wealth. - 20763

Enjoy Abundance Prosperity in Life and Business

.

By Liam Chen

We live in a world that is plentiful in every way that we can imagine, a world that is lacking with nothing. But still every success-driven individual wants to know the secret of attracting abundance and prosperity in their life. It seems that almost everyone is too hectic focusing on what they don't have instead of actively attracting what they want.

We always wish for the best things in our lives and this is very healthy. However, just mere wishing is not enough and it will not change a thing if you forget to act on it. Why do you think people mostly fail rather than succeed in life?

You need to stop being negative to achieve everything. Somehow, you can't seem to get these negative aspects out of your mind. You are worried about your daily expenses but you hate your job and your salary.

Abundance and prosperity in life and business will come easily as long as you possess the necessary attributes that will attract positive changes into your life. When it comes to your personal life, never stop dreaming and believing in your skills. Always remember that you must work hard to attain success and you must not rely to others just to have some comfort.

Always have the positive attitude towards work to attract abundance prosperity in your like. Always think that you can do it and you have the capacity to withstand any hindrance that will come your way.

Accompanying your daily breakfast with a morning mantra will keep yourself in good spirits. You don't need to limit yourself with material gains. Sometimes it is nice to have more power, you might think about gaining your own spirituality and relationship as well.

There is a simple and effective way of alternating habits and creating new subconscious programs. One way is to use self-hypnosis and guided visualization to take control and re-program your subconscious mind in order to bring about lasting change in a short period of time. Physical and mental relaxations are what this is all about. Authorizing direct access to the subconscious where suggestion can be utilized to maximize the effect.

Here are some principles of gaining abundance and prosperity in life. First, stop complaining, blaming and worrying about money. It is a process of focusing on the past and fear of the future. In fact, worry actually keeps money away by making a negative field.

Second, eliminate the need to be right about receiving and generating money. Often people have obstruction s when considering options for generating and receiving money.

Good habits towards life and work will help you attain abundance prosperity in no time. Don't be afraid to grab each opportunity and always set your best foot forward. Be true to yourself and go for what you truly aim and not just because you want to fill your parents dream for you. There's nothing wrong to take and listen to their advice but in the end it must be your decision that will be heard.

A jealous heart will only create conflict with other people and material gains are not the best things in life. Always live a life with a pure heart that will make you truly happy every minute that you live. - 20763

Anger Management For Youths

.
0 comments

By Colin Jones

Anger, a perfectly normal emotion, can change into something frightening and ugly. The first thought you might have of anger issues may bring about images of a couple fighting, a parent abusing a child, a teenager lashing out at a teacher or a parent. Rarely will images of angry children come to mind. Unfortunately youths, at very young ages, have to deal with feelings of anger and rage. This is a truth which is often difficult for adults to understand or deal with.

Children, young children especially, aren't normally aware of their emotions. When children become upset or mad they just display these emotions through their behaviour. A good example of this might be a little boy in a supermarket who throws a tantrum because he's upset. Many parents have had to deal with similar circumstances. It is sad that often these occurrences are overlooked or dismissed because they are "just children". Anger management in kids is as important, or perhaps even more important than anger management in adults.

A child needs instruction and guidance from their delivery into the world to their entrance into adulthood. The things they learn throughout their young lives are likely to form the person they become as an adult. For this reason, anger management in kids with difficulties controlling their foul temper is crucial important. Finding ways to teach anger management for kids does present challenges.

There are programs designed especially for kids with frustration, anxiety and anger management issues. Finding one that works for a particular child might require testing many methods. Not all youths will respond to the same treatment for anger management for kids. Because a child cannot always relate their feelings surrounding angry outburst, finding the right way of tackling it may take some time. Until the issue is resolved or at least controlled, it is vital to continue looking.

Young children may respond well to worksheets, games and fun activities. All of these can be used to great effect to teach anger management for kids. Developing programs which incorporate each of these methods might be the best route to take. A child completing a worksheet, colouring sheet or participating in games and activities with underlying messages regarding anger management for kids, may not even realize they are working on their anger-related problems.

Making the activity fun doesn't mean that the anger issue has to be omitted. Choosing fun activities which teach healthy interaction and decision making might be good for anger management for children. Teaching them to take turns and helping them to learn that they can't always be the best or the winner would definitely make a difference when confrontational situations arise. Small activities which instill values and positive thinking would be helpful for anger management for youths.

If a child is old enough to talk about their anger problem, encouraging them to share their emotions is important. Suggesting they talk to someone who they feel comfortable with and trust is a good idea regarding anger management in children. Asking them to write or draw about their emotions may help them reveal their underlying problems, whether it be fear, pain or depression.

Teaching them to ask for help when they feel threatened or angry would certainly help the child with an anger-related problem. The important detail to realize when considering anger management in children are they are just "children". Their minds are not equipped to handle adult situations and so they will require a more careful approach. - 20763

If you are thinking of exterior painting and decorating this spring, you may need a little bit of advice. The fact is, any type of decorating doesnt come easy to a lot of people. In fact, there are very few that take to it naturally. That leaves the rest of us confused and overwhelmed when it comes to making decisions. And, its important to make the right decisions and go about the work properly, otherwise your time and money will both be wasted.

Starting with the preparation is the key to a successful paint job on the exterior of a home. There is a lot of preparation that must be done prior to beginning painting on a wood surface. The first and foremost thing that has to be done is the sanding. Sanding the surface must be done properly.

To simplify matters, it would be best to either rent or purchase a power tool. It can really save time. However, if the job is very big, it might be in your favor to buy it rather than rent it, economically speaking.

You will come across some areas that may require scraping. This is where the paint has become loose, chipped, or peeled. After this, proper sanding is necessary. Then, the next step involves washing the whole area. It is recommended to use a pressure washer. This will loosen and remove any bits and pieces of the previous paint that was sanded and scraped. Of course, start from the highest point. Before starting to paint, make sure that the wood is completely dry.

Its best to use a good-quality primer. This will ensure that the paint will adhere properly and make it last longer. In addition to that, its also a good way to save money. Primer is cheaper than top coat or undercoat paint is. Wood is very porous, therefore it will absorb the paint very quickly. Then you will need to add more and more paint. However, a primer will avoid you from wasting the paint.

Make sure you follow the directions according to the particular paint manufacturers. You will see that they suggest sealing the wood afterward. This will only provide you with longer lasting results. Any way you want to look at it, this can be a tiring and tedious job, especially if your entire home is made of wood. So, you want to do it right and avoid having to do this every year.

So, some good advice would be to check around the wood parts of your home regularly. Twice a year is recommended. If something is in right, if you spot some peeling or other problems, a quick fix the job will suffice. But if you leave it fall behind, youll have a much bigger job to do later on.

If you do not protect the wood on your home, you are going to be subjecting it to weather elements. When the wood starts to absorb moisture, it will cause a warping and other damage. Such damages will come at a high cost where you would have to replace the wood. So, be a smart consumer and avoid the big repairs by keeping up the maintenance. - 20763

Over The Counter Bulletin Board: How To Find a Consultant That Can Make The Process Fast and Easy

.
0 comments

By James Scott

So many companies dream of going public to raise massive amounts of capital, as set up for an exit strategy, to make acquisitions with stock and for many other reasons. While your intentions may be pure and with genuine motives, you're entering shark infested waters of boiler rooms, crooked attorneys and underbelly consultants who have made careers off of taking well intentioned executives just like you for a 24 month rollercoaster ride while they take every penny you have as your company shrivels up like week old road kill.

Just and honest consultants in the 'public offering' industry are as rare as the illusive white elephant. This industry exists in a cesspool surrounded by rose gardens; from afar it looks amazing and an image of a dreamland but get up and close and the sludge and odor are enough to make you run and hide. So what do you look for in a consultant? The best consulting firms are the 'boutique firms' with minimal overhead that keep a low profile and are made up of 3 or 4 'partner' consultants.

These firms typically have the experience of working with the large consulting groups but for one reason or another have decided to leave and go out on their own. The great thing is, these small groups typically have massive contacts and process your entire public offering in-house. Offering a complete turn-key solution that is managed in-house offers a huge advantage because there is accountability and you can actually build a relationship with the people that are making your dream of a public offering come true.

These 'boutique' consultants will usually stay onboard as growth consultants for the life of the company in exchange for modest fees and a pre-IPO or pre-OTCBB equity position. The large firms will hack you out at the knees and gouge you with fees while they take massive amounts of equity in your company which takes away your bartering chip when you need to offer more stock to the public to raise capital.

The small firms will also work one on one with you to show you how to use your stock to grow through acquisition and other nifty ways to use stock to grow. Seek out the boutique consulting firm and save the attorney for spot audits. Hold on to your cash. Why pay outrageous fees to lawyers when you can pay 60% less with a small consulting firm that will add all the bells and whistles for free and actually get your stock trading, usually in half the time? - 20763

By Mark Ferguson

Historic buildings in Cheshire are in abundance with thousands of cottages, farmsteads and houses which were erected in the eighteen hundreds AD and many are predated to the Georgian style. Cheshire is situated on the northern boundaries next to Whales and Cheshire has a reputation for its wonderful countryside and gardens displaying castles as well as Roman villages.

To mention only a few of the many historic buildings that are noted in Cheshire is Adlington Hall which is owned by the Legh family and has been around since the thirteenth century in the forests of Macclesfield which was previously a hunting lodge in 1040. The staggering architecture is a combination of 16th century timber framing and 17th century brickwork which was originally moated and in the early nineteen hundreds the Legh family altered the original design

In 1832 Arley Hall was built by Rowland Egerton Warburton which is the great-great grandfather to the present owner Viscount Ashbrook and the Viscountess. Arley Hall is enveloped in the most magnificent scenic gardens.

A Jacobean Manor which one will find on the South side of Cheshire is Dorfold Hall which was erected on one of the ancients sites as well as a typically Cheshire style manor depicting black and white timber is Bramall Hall enfolded by beautiful parklands. Another manor with the same style of architecture as Bramall Hall is Gawsworth Hall which was built in the fifteen hundred's is surrounded by pre dated statues and ornaments and the gardens filled with luscious roses off setting a medieval church close by.

An original beautiful Tudor house which is surrounded by what was a deer park is Dunham Massey and it owned by the 9th Earl of Stamford Dunham Massey which can be found south west of Altrincham. A beautiful stately Elizabethan home which is well known for retaining a collection of 17th century hand crafted clocks is Lyme Park.

Other historic buildings in Cheshire displaying master craftsmanship is Rode Hall, Tatton Park, Peover Hall, Tabley House and Peckforton Castle which are only just a few more of the many thousands of historical buildings which can be seen. For those that delight in history Cheshire is a place filled with historical treasures. - 20763

Lovely With Silk Bridal Bouquets

.
0 comments

By Esther P Alarcon

Silk Bridal Bouquets make all the difference. Selecting the ideal flowers for the wedding is really a talent. I have attended weddings where folks paid out lavishly on the flowers yet weren't in a position to produce that beauty within their wedding. It is because it's simply not crucial to obtain the priciest flowers, it is important to get the right combination of them. You have to know about flowers first and then make your pick.

If you say that your understanding of flowers and their arrangement into bouquets is restricted or minimal, I'd not really blame you for each of us has our expertise. It's absolutely relevant that yours could be anything aside from flowers. When you tell me this, I will simply give you an advice and that is to find the best florist. Since it is your wedding, you shouldn't leave any stones unchecked.

One will discover many florists all around. The priority is to locate the one who is prepared to work hard for your wedding. Normally, any florist asks you to make a choice from ready- made silk bridal bouquets so they are saved of all the effort to find your actual preference. Stay away from any such florist. Instead, search more for one who enjoys his work and does it for the love rather than money. A great florist will update you about all of the flowers, respective of the season, availability as well as your preference. He'll additionally give you all the help that he can provide you with regarding the flower selection. Decide to work with this type of florist even if he demands a little more than regular ones because at the end of the day quality does make a difference substantially.

My second suggestion to anyone preparing a wedding would be that don't make the flowers seem dull. What I mean to express is that a lot of people are satisfied with single colored flowers i.e. the white, red or violet. They could look lovely to you but they make the whole wedding place appear rather dull without any vibrancy. Single colored flowers do lack something. Therefore, my advice would be going for combine. For instance, if you'd like more of whites, add light colors to the white colored flowers. Get white roses as the main pieces but arrange tulips, lilacs and daisies around them. This will get them to seem more classy and alluring.

My third advice will be to learn as much as you are able to about precisely anything that is involved with the wedding. When you've got knowledge about things, you will know exactly what to look for. If you lack in knowledge about things, anyone can misguide you which you may regret later. So, collect the information. - 20763

Re-Order Your Life With Cosmic Ordering

.
0 comments

By Samantha Hill

These days, more and more people are trying to enhance their lives by various means. They are trying to have a life which has the luxuries that they desire and are also able to want and appreciate the blessings that they already have. Now days there are a lot of ways and means to realize your ambitions and dreams, however the best method out of these is cosmic ordering.

Cosmic ordering can be simply described as a different kind of spiritual practice which helps you to attain all that you want from the universe. It can be likened to an ordering service where you order your heart's desire and you will get it. However, though this is a spiritual process, you don't need to be a saint or be a complete philanthropist or something as good as that to use it. Goodness does count and help. However this method works as well for regular people.

Cosmic ordering aids in manifesting your goals and dreams the spiritual way. You only need to order or ask the universe for what ever you want. You can ask for anything from changing your life completely or circumstances to fulfill your ambitions.

Spiritual experts like Dr. Wayne Dyer and Dr. Deepak Chopra reveal that there is something known as the 'intent field' which is a kind of energy field. Your vibrations need to correspond to the vibrations in this field. Once that happens, you will be able to connect spiritually with the universe and manifest all your desires consciously.

Though you may not know is as cosmic ordering, you definitely would have used it in the past. You may have wanted something badly at sometime and you got it. Its not coincidence, it's just that you unknowingly placed an order with the universe which was delivered.

To use cosmic ordering, you need to have the right kind of intention. Intention is nothing but a mix of our desires and faith which makes us believe that we deserve the best in life and that this faith can help us in creating a better life for ourselves. The cosmos only accepts your orders when you really want something badly and believe that you are worthy of receiving it.

There are many people who may say that they want a new house or a coveted promotion or job. However, deep inside consciously or subconsciously they may not believe that they worked hard to get their wishes or that they deserved it. For this to work, you need to believe that you deserve what you are asking for.

This process of cosmic ordering is one of the simplest and the easiest to do and it can really give you a better life. The only downside is that you need to use it well and for manifesting positive things. If you believe that you will just get negative then it will work in the way you think and you may get negative things.

For instance if you think that your boss is out to fire you and believe it, then you will end up getting fired one day. Hence if you don't want the negative, than think and just concentrate on all the positive things you want to manifest.

There are many people who have been living in bad conditions and have been conditioned to believe that they don't deserve anything. For these people manifesting what they truly want is almost next to impossible.

The subconscious mind can even resist the change and become a foe to prevent us from changing our lives. Therefore, to succeed in cosmic ordering, you need to condition your subconscious to believe that you deserve all the good things of life and are ready to accept them.

Communication with the subconscious mind can be accomplished by self hypnosis, meditation and simple affirmations. It's not tough at all!

People around the world have used cosmic ordering to make their life more joyful and fun. So, you too order your heart's desires and have a great life which is full of love and happiness. - 20763

A New You - With Chakra Meditation!

.
0 comments

By Jonathan Benjem

Meditation is traditionally regarded as one of the most potent forms of realizing ones spiritual being, and in the process, one can live a healthy and aware life. Different people adopt different meditation styles, but if theres one universally acceptable mode of meditation, that has to be the Chakra Meditation.

Introduction to Chakra Meditation

Quite simply, Chakra Meditation refers to the process of balancing and energizing all the 7 energy centers (Chakras) in order to align the flow of energy through them. These 7 energy centers, or the Chakras, are:

1. Crown Chakra is situated at the top of the head. It is related to the thought element, which governs our wisdom, knowledge, and consciousness.

2. Orange Chakra governing your emotions and sexuality is located at the center of abdomen and related to the element Water.

3. Solar Plexus or Power Chakra located just above the naval region and related to the element Fire. It governs our will power, autonomy, and metabolism.

4. Heart Chakra is situated right at the center of the chest. It is related to the Air element, which governs our feelings of love, compassion, and general relationships.

5. Power Chakra, also called the Solar Plexus, is situated just above the naval region. It is related to the Fire element, which governs our will power, metabolism, and autonomy.

6. Brow or The Third Eye Chakra located between the brows on the forehead and related to the element Light. It governs perception, interpretation, imagination, and clear vision.

7. Root Chakra, also called the Base Chakra, is situated at the base of the spine. It is related to the Earth element, which governs our overall health, security, and prosperity in life.

If you want to reinvent yourself and bring back those vitalizing moments in your life, then theres no substitute to Chakra Meditation. If these vital seven Chakras are rotating in sync, physical, mental, and spiritual well being is assured. Thus, you can safely conclude that Chakra Meditation is the key to overall health of your life, taken as a whole.

Chakra Meditation " The Process

Chakra Meditation, essentially, involves three steps or techniques:

1. Grounding Technique. As is evident from its name, the Grounding Technique makes your body feel connected with the Earth. The application of this technique is pretty simple. Just visualize a root growing from your body and entering into the Earth. Easier it may sound, but requires intense concentration and mental awareness while performing the Grounding Technique.

2. Centering Technique. This technique is vital as it prepares your body to receive the benefits of Chakra Meditation. Again, the application of this technique is not too difficult. Just take 4-5 deep breaths and feel every body part from head to toe getting relaxed. This process involves tightening and relaxing each body part from toe, and then visualizing the act of a potter who centers a pot on the pottery wheel.

3. Relaxation Technique, which is the final step in Chakra Meditation. There is no hard and fast rule to relax your body. Everyone has his or her own method of relaxation.

Here is one of the most common methods of performing Chakra Meditation:

a) Sit or lie down comfortably.

b) Loosen all your clothing so that there is no tension on any part of the body, and close your eyes.

c) Breathe in a relaxed manner, which should be neither too fast nor too slow. The idea is to give up the control on your breath, and let it flow naturally, but healthily.

d) Start feeling every part of your body from toe to the head in that direction. While your eyes are closed, feel the earth you are lying or sitting on, or the bed you are lying or sitting on, feel the aura around you, feel the clothes you are wearing. Feel everything youd have had your eyes been open. Visualize life in darkness!

e) All the negative thoughts and emotions should not be avoided. Let them be! With time and regular practice, these thoughts will disappear automatically. Rather, when no such negative emotion disturbs you, that is the time when you should consider that you have perfected the art of Chakra Meditation.

f) Let you spirit roam in every part of your body. This is the feeling of completeness youve been yearning for.

This exercise can be done at any time of the day and for any duration of time. However, the longer the better! - 20763

Repairing Sash Windows Can Be More Friendly For The Environment Rather Than Installing New Ones

.
0 comments

By Tayyab Khan

Sash windows date back to the Victoria or Gregorian times and are still featured in many homes today. Because the original windows are made of softwood, they are likely to deteriorate over time and could warp or rot. You will need to consider the options to replace or repair your original windows and it is important to note that. Repairing Your Sash Windows Is Better For The Environment Than Replacing Them And Also Could Save You Some Money Too.

If you simply go ahead and replace the original windows you are reducing the historical story of the home and this could hinder any resale as some buyer look for original features. Replacement windows also do not carry the same look and feel as the original windows and do not have the same quality.

One difference between original and replacement windows is that the newer windows often do not have the additional top pane which the originals do. This top pane plays a large role in regulating the air flow within the house and really makes a difference on hot days.

You may be experiencing higher energy bills in the colder months because of the deterioration of your old windows but this does not mean you have to replace them. By simply sealing them correctly and filling in any small holes in the wood you can increase their effectiveness.

You also need to think about the environment when considering replacing your windows. More than likely the old ones will end up in a landfill somewhere which is not conducive to being environmentally friendly. If push comes to shove and you decide to replace the windows, try sending the old ones to an antiques store who may get some use from them.

Many people do not think of the fact that their original windows have more than likely been providing good insulation for over fifty years. Maybe you need to realize that with the correct restoration they can provide another fifty years of service where new windows will more than likely need to be replaced after ten years in your home. Just like the old saying goes, they do not make things of that quality anymore. - 20763

Save Money Doing Yourself Solar Panels.

By James Hughes

A lot of people are becoming interested in converting to renewable energy with the intention of saving both the environment and their pockets. Converting to solar energy is certainly a very good option to choose, as the benefits are many. Take action, and you will see why it is worth the investment.

People who have installed solar panel systems have significantly reduced or eliminated electricity bills, which in itself satisfies most people after they have installed it. Also, people are pleased to know that over produced energy from a solar power system can be sold to the utility company, thereby negating their utility bills.

From the point of view to protect the environment, solar panels contribute significantly to reduce fossil fuel emission. You can check that the benefits are many. But, let us take a look at the costs of the solar panels system investment.

The main factor to take into account is how much energy must support your electric system. Many houses are fully equipped with washers, dryers, refrigerators, microwaves, water heaters... If you want, you can calculate the wattage needed for all the devices over a twenty four hour period.

That exercise would certainly tell you which appliances consume the most electricity. But, a better method would be to consult your utility bill. You bill should highlight how many kilowatts you used for the number of days in the billing period. Just divide the total kilowatt hours by the number of days to arrive at your average daily consumption.

The next step is to calculate how many hours of sunlight your roof receives daily. To simplify the calculation, we can assume that most places receive about 5 hours of sunlight a day. It is better to take the worst situation. Then let us look at an example. If you spend 300KWh monthly, then your average monthly consumption will be 10 KWh. As a starting point, a 1KW rooftop system can generate about 5 KWh per day. Remember 1KW multiplied for 5 hours of sunlight a day is 5KWh. Then a 2KW system will be enough to generate 10 KWh per day.

So what are the costs? A 2KW system solar panels can cost between $17,000 to $19,000. If the wattage increases, so does the price. For example 8 KW system would cost between $48,000 and $ 54,000. On the other hand, once installed, solar panels systems are free and very easy to maintain. Also, more good news is that cost solar panels is decreasing from companies like AVA solar and others, to become available to the residential market.

Further savings can be derived if you buy a do it yourself home solar panel system guide. Whatever route you take, you will take a good option. Make your choose today to begin to save money. - 20763

Comparing Teeth Whitening Methods And Tips For An Attractive

.
0 comments

By Will Monty

The desire for beautiful white teeth has seen a great increase in recent history and this new demand has seen the rise of new procedures and cheaper costs for whitening products. Simply put, it does not cost as much as it did a few years ago to have white teeth. Here is a review of some popular teeth whitening procedures used these days.

The technique of teeth whitening using trays usually involves going to your dentist and having a mold of your teeth made and then trays made from the mold. You may be able to buy "blank" molds that can be heated and push onto teeth to form a mold. The difficulty with the dentist mold is that it is expensive and insurance will not cover any of the expense. The "homemade" molds are not truly good and don't match to teeth sufficiently to achieve even whitening.

The using of white, blue, UV or laser light to help in teeth and brightening cleaning is really common. The lights are used to activate the bleaching agent and speed up the process. There is some difference of opinion as to how much the light actually helps. The process is to put the bleaching compound onto the teeth then place the light over the mouth and teeth. The use of the lights will increase the cost of the whitening since the lights are high-priced. This system is used primarily by dentist but can be found at some upscale beauty shops.

One process that has fallen in status is the use of whitening strips. The strips are a mess to handle and do not seem to give the promised results. There use is to simply put the whitening strip on the teeth for a certain length of time. Getting them to stay in place is not always easy.

One whitening product that is gaining support and use is the whitening swabs. In contrast to the strips, the swab has received rave reviews for its ease of use and simplicity. And because of this whitening swabs are even attracting members of the modeling and entertainment communities.

The swab whitening technique has two main advantages. The first is that it is rather inexpensive as compared to most other systems, with the possible exception of "homemade" bleaches and a number of over-the-counter whiteners. The second reason is that it is regarded as the simplest to use and requires less time than others. - 20763

Lawn Fertilizing - Best Practices For Optimal Results

.
0 comments

By Lawn Care Expert

Lawn fertilizing is not rocket science but does need a little background knowledge to be done properly. There are a few tips that can aid the homeowner in completing this task with little to no effort. These tips may help in achieving the perfect lawn that you have always wanted.

A little background information on the lawn goes a long way in making sure that the lawn gets what it needs, when it needs it. A simple soil test along with a pH test can help the homeowner to determine what the yard is lacking. This can help the homeowner get the right fertilizer for the yard and apply it properly.

Apply only the amount of fertilizer recommended by the soil test and fertilize regularly for the best and most enduring results. As far as the type of fertilizer goes, use low concentration nitrogen products and use slow-release fertilizers whenever possible. Slow-release fertilizers do just as the name implies- they release the product slowly into the lawn. These products are much less likely to burn a lawn.

To achieve the healthiest lawn, it is recommended that fertilizer be applied four times per year. Those residing in the northern states should apply fertilizer at least one time in each of the spring and fall. The longer growing season in the southern states makes it necessary for southern lawns to be fertilized two times each during the spring and fall.

Try to keep the fertilizer on the lawn and off the driveway. If a spill should occur, clean up immediately with either a broom or a shop vac. The chemicals in fertilizer can cause stains on either concrete or pavement along with contaminating water supplies should they be washed into a storm drain and should be handled with care.

Use a spreader to ensure even application of the fertilizer. Spreaders come in different versions, including hand-held and pushable, and they can be purchased online or at a garden center. The last point to note is to avoid applying fertilizer within 24 hours of anticipated rain and avoid heavy watering for 24 hours after application. The lawn fertilizing steps above provide the path to a beautiful lawn without wasted time and effort. - 20763

Chakra Meditation And The Power Of Chakra Sound

.
0 comments

By Nisal Karuiyaratna

The word chakra comes from the Sanskrit language, and means a vortex or spinning wheel. It is also used to refer to the seven chakras found in the human body, corresponding to the different glands of the body. The first chakra is found at the spinal base and the seventh at the crown. All chakras are centers of spinning energy.

Everything moving causes vibrations, and since chakras are centers of spinning energy, there is vibration here. This vibration brings about sound, which is the reason why different body parts vibrate with different frequencies at the different chakras.

The seven chakras have seven chakra sounds associated with it. In addition to sound, colors also vibrate at a specific frequency and each chakra has a color associated with it. It is the combined effort of chakra sound and color that helps restore balance in the chakras, which in turn restores health.

It is easy to turn to sound healing, with the help of chakra sounds. You only need your voice to feel better, calmer and clearer in a matter of minutes. These chakra sounds should be said softly and gently for not longer than five minutes.

1. The first chakra sound is UH, the deepest sound possible. This chakra sound has to be done with eyes closed and with attention on the spine base chakra, the base chakra. When chanting the chakra sound, you have to be aware of the sound resonance found in the chakra location and not from the throat. This chakra sound is associated with the color red and has to be chanted for one or two minutes, and not longer than five minutes.

2. The second chakra is located about three inches below the naval where you find the second chakra sound OOO. This chakra sound is complimented with the color orange and has to be chanted with eyes closed. This helps you experience the balancing of the chakra with other chakras for a minute or two.

3. The third chakra sound "OH has to come from the navel chakra, found at the navel area. The color for complimenting visualization here is yellow. This chakra sound has to start very softly and gently, but higher than the last sound.

4. The heart chakra is found in the middle of the chest, and its chakra sound is AH. This is the sound that is emitted when in love, and this is why the heart chakra is usually related to love. This chakra sound can be complimented with the color green and should be started with a gentle and soft sound, that is however of a higher pitch than the last chakra sound.

5. The chakra sound for the throat chakra is EYE which has blue as its complimenting color. Like other chakra sounds, this chakra sound too has to be of a higher pitch than previous sounds

6. In between the forehead and slightly above the two eyes is the chakra sound belonging to the third eye. This chakra sound is AYE and is complimented with indigo color. This chakra sound starts with a soft and gentle tone which is however of a higher pitch than the previous sounds.

7. The crown chakra situated at the top of the head is where you chant the highest sound possible, EEE. This chakra sound is complemented with the color purple that starts with the highest sound you can make, EEE. Like other chakra sounds, this chakra sound also starts softly and gently.

You have to close your eyes when chanting all the chakra sounds while concentrating on different chakras. When you focus on the different chakras, you find chakra sounds projecting from the respective chakras. And with the resonance of the sound chakras, each chakra starts balancing and aligning with other chakras.

You will feel light headed after this exercise with chakra sounds. This is why it is better to meditate or relax after this session. This way you will be able to reap the actual benefits chakra sounds offer you. - 20763

Getting The Cabin Summer Ready

.
0 comments

By Leslie Baker

Summer vacation...one of the most awaited time of the year. Families go out of town or go overseas to take advantage of the school break and the unforgiving heat, and spend a leisurely time taking in the sights and relaxing. A popular summer get-away for many families that kids absolutely love is the cabin vacation. It's like going on a school camp, only with better food, more unstructured activities and a longer retreat.

A clean place to stay in is crucial for a comfortable and healthy summer time. Remember that summer is pestered by dust more than the usual because of the heat, so making your cabin as clean as possible is important. You don't want to add insult to the already warm temperature. So, get those broom, mop, rags and other cleaning paraphernalia out and scrub away!

Most cabins are made out of logs and are usually pretty light colored on the inside walls if they are left natural. You may want to add color in greens or reds or even blues as those are great colors for the woodsy lake cabin. If you live with a hunter you may have some kind of mounted animal head hanging in the cabin. It could be over the fireplace mantle which is a great place for it to be hanging.

Consider the colors in the cabin. Does the place look too plain or too worn-out? Spice up the interiors by adding some new colors, such as the season's colors - yellows, reds, blues and greens. You don't have to repaint the walls if you want to maintain the old-fashioned look of neutral-colored walls. You can just accent one wall or paint just one room in the cabin for a brand new appearance, specifically the kitchen or the family room.

Rugs made out of indoor/outdoor material, for the main room of the cabin, is probably best. For the other rooms, softer or maybe even a fur throw rug would be a good idea for decorating. Add area rugs to every room in the cabin. Rugs will soften the rustic look of the cabin and make it feel more inviting and comfortable.

Checkered curtains in red or blue over the kitchen windows and in the eating area will also had a little woodsy country touch. Or if you aren't in to checks, blue curtains with little white flowers or red with little white flowers would be a good fresh look as well.

Don't overlook your outdoor spaces when decorating your cabin. Add hanging baskets full of beautiful flowers on the porch. If you have a porch swing changing cushions out to some new colors for the summer will add your color. Wicker furniture for the porch will give it a nice summer look as well and you can always match your colors between the swing and the wicker furniture.

Make your cabin nice and airy and summery for your vacation. Remember if you use your cabin off and on all year round, changing the colors to match your seasons is a great way to keep things exciting. - 20763

Rams Beat Chiefs In NFL Preseason Finale

By Ross Everett

The Kansas City Chiefs have had an awful preseason, primarily due to their inability to put points on the board. This liability cost offensive coordinator Chan Gailey his job earlier in the week, but in the first game with head coach Todd Haley calling the plays it was more of the same as the Chiefs couldn't find the end zone. St. Louis scored an offensive touchdown late in the first half and used a third quarter interception return for a score to beat Kansas City 17-9. The Chiefs finished the NFL preseason with a winless 0-4 record, while St. Louis posted a 3-1 mark.

NFL preseason betting aficionados who took a flyer on the Rams were rewarded by their outright victory in the pickem game. Kansas City also finished 0-4 against the spread, while St. Louis finished 3-1 to the number. The combined 26 points put on the board went well UNDER the posted total of 36.

The only offense that the Chiefs were able to generate came off the foot of placekicker Ryan Succop who converted three field goals. Despite his teams continued offensive struggles, Haley tried to put a positive spin on the situation:

"I made a few mistakes out there but overall it felt good. Obviously, there were a couple of plays I would like to have back. After I got the feel a little bit, I didn't feel too out of sync with the game and what was going on. I thought our defense gave us a chance to win. Running the football is something we can feel good about."

The Chiefs moved the ball well, generating 406 yards of total offense but had trouble converting in the red zone. They also turned the ball over three times, the most costly a third quarter interception thrown by reserve QB Tyler Thigpen. The Rams Quincy Butler took the interception to the house for a 28 yard touchdown return. Afterwards, he suggested that his team has a new mindset:

"Every time the ball's in the air, we all think 'It's my ball. We all go and get it."

Rams head coach Steve Spagnuolo was generally pleased with his teams effort in the victory:

"It was good to get those guys back in the swing. Now we've just got to get Marc (Bulger) cranked up."

Spagnuolo wasnt too concerned about all of the yardage his team gave up:

"The silver lining is the defense held them and got them to kick a field goal. So there's some good and bad always."

St. Louis will open their regular season against the Seattle Seahawks. The Chiefs will also open the NFL 2009 campaign on the road, heading to Baltimore to take on the Ravens. The Rams will remain on the road for week #2, playing at Washington while the Chiefs will host the Oakland Raiders at Arrowhead Stadium. - 20763

Mystery Method was created by is a guy dubbed "The world's greatest Pick-up Artist" by the New York Times and who's inspired thousands of men on tactics for attract good looking women for over a decade. Unfortunately for every correct fact about Mystery Method and it's surprising method there are many pieces of misinformation so www.theMysteryMethod.net chose to examine the facts.

We've conducted several detailed interviews with Mystery and with his pupils, and we've gone "in field" filming hours of hidden camera footage with Mystery and his students using Mystery Method lessons to meet lovely girlswith zeroactors or actresses involved. We've used the clips we've filmed to get 3.4 million views on YouTube and to aid thousands of guys to attract beautiful ladies.

Having a blast is a key tactic Mystery Method uses that might seem obvious but turns out to be very out of the ordinary because most times in the bar scene folks are either meeting somebody or feeling a bit nervous. So what happens in most cases is lots of people aren't enjoying themselves as it might first appear. Mystery uses anything from magic tricks to spinning a girl like you're dancing to liven things up. The reason why to be different by your actions, and not just in the way you dress. An easy approach to share value is using storytelling. Effective to remember isshare stories that subtly convey positive values about you, as in: that you're used to the attention of women. This is the most significant trait about yourself you can share because women want what other women have. Here's how to do this: beginning your story with I was out last night with a couple of girlfriends... The point is to subtly implying you're used to having women around but not to turn it into the focus of the story The largest gain in doing this is you come off as "safe" but still fun.

If you are wondering why you should buy vinyl siding Augusta, Georgia, while you are looking for another improvement for your home, here are just some of the many advantages of using siding Augusta as your first choice. The problem many people face when doing home improvements is cost and time. The costs that are considered are the initial investment in materials, and labor to install, how long it will last, and how much you will have to spend in routine maintenance.

The other problem that people face is time. Some people don't have time to spend cleaning their home for two or three days at a time. They want a finish that is easy to clean, and one that will last a long time, even in some of the harshest times of the year. One of the other important issues is also keeping the elements out of the house, keeping out drafts, and providing adequate insulation.


Vinyl siding Augusta takes care of all that and much more. Starting with the cost factor, siding Augusta is a vinyl plastic that is easy to make, bringing material costs down. Because the process is simple, they are more environmentally conscious because siding is mostly made from recycled materials, cutting down on costs even more, and saving the planet at the same time. Because vinyl siding is a thick hard plastic, it is less likely to break down, making is almost indestructible. Vinyl siding Augusta companies often use manufacturers that offer at least a 15 year warranty on materials. Some siding Augusta installers even offer another warranty on top of this, to ensure that it stays on for long periods as well.

For starters, the siding itself holds up extremely well to conditions of both cold and heat. They are resistant to staining, as well as mold and mildew. This means that when Spring comes and it's time to do some outdoor work, you won't have to spend days cleaning it. A simple garden hose with a pressure sprayer attachment one or two good passes is all it takes to keep it clean. All the ends and joints not only lock in place, but are permanently sealed against moisture, so you don't have to worry about water, or the elements for that matter, getting to the inside. Because it is completely sealed, you can also put a layer of solid insulation behind it, keeping the inside of your home cooler in the Summer and warmer in the Winter. This cuts down on your energy costs greatly.


Because vinyl siding is hitting the top of the charts with popularity right now, it is available in such a wide selection of styles and colors that you can find a pattern to fit in with any home design. Whether it is old style Colonial, or some modern contemporary, you can find what you are looking for. Because this type of siding is so popular right now, there is also a multitude of companies that install it. There is a fierce competition in this field, so you can get another really good deal. They can also do in day what would take you weeks. - 20763
