Network marketing can be one of the most exciting businesses to start for someone who has a lot of energy and wants to be a success. To enhance the potential for success, take these finely honed tips to create a successful network marketing enterprise.
A client mailing list is vital. You can create a mailing list by including a contact form on your website or simply requesting their contact information when they purchase something. This list can have multiple functions, including promotion and sale offers, as well as the opportunity to request feedback from your customers.
In the end, Internet marketers are all about identifying and remedying issues. It is important to address problems first thing in the day. If you can resolve a problem or need, then your customers will feel grateful to you and are sure to recommend your business to others.
Make sure your website's tag defines the primary focus of your site. This tag will explain in a small blurb what your website is all about. An audience member will determine in a matter of seconds whether or not your website is worth their time based upon that tag. Using language that isn't natural and relevant can be the biggest mistake you make when creating this tag.
Your website marketing can be in places other than the internet. You can reach out to bloggers regularly and then invite them to one or more conferences you host to get together in person. Knowing your market cannot be underestimated, so use your blog and the online community to get to know the other players and customers that are out there.
Keeping an eye on your competition is an important part of internet promotion. It doesn't matter what market you have, there is always competition.
Creating an effective user interface where customers can view your products is important for variety and overall success. Adding content while keeping an easy to navigate structure is key.
When sending out e-mails, regardless of whether the e-mail is business related or a personal one, you should always have a signature on all e-mails. A signature acts as a business card, so use this tool wisely by maximizing exposure. Your website will enjoy greater revenue and greater traffic thanks to this practice.
Privacy Policy
Make your readers and customers more comfortable on your site with the following tip. Make sure your readers know you take privacy and security seriously! You should have an accessible privacy policy visible on every page of your website. By adding the privacy policy to your site, your customers will feel more comfortable engaging in financial transactions with you. You will protect their identities when they buy your product!
Always focus on a goal when you are creating a website. Decide which article directory you wish to write for, and choose the type of articles you will create. Depending on the directories you choose, you will be forced to comply with different rules regarding the content and length of your articles. Always keep these guidelines in the back of your mind whenever you write.
Social Networking Sites
Set up an accounts on several social networking sites and send out relevant information. Make sure to only send information to people who have opted in to your mailing list, since some social networking sites have been closing accounts or even suing people who send unwanted email.
Direct a certain percentage of profits to a charity. This should be clearly advertised, though not too excessively, on your website. You do not give a large percentage of your profits to a charity for this to be a good marketing strategy.
Modify your website content to accommodate visitors from all around the world. Translate the content into multiple languages so that people all over the world can read your site. This can expand your global audience significantly and quite possibly send sales soaring. When the customer can read your site in their native language, they will be more likely to buy from you.
Use a lot of headlines. You should make them engaging and interesting for people to appreciate. Graphics can also attract attention. Graphics are sometimes more professional looking than headlines.
Try putting some free articles on specialized directories that are available to everyone. Several directories, for example, have free e-zines. These sites include free site directories, article directories, e-book directories and dictionaries, as well as many others.
Social Media
It's important to only have a few social media accounts that you can give your full attention to. A social media account is pointless if you can't keep up with it. Unmaintained profiles do nothing to improve the current standing of your brand.
Give your customers incentives to refer others. It is not hard to transform a single sale into five if you offer people a freebie or a discount for referring five people to the website. It always feels great to get free extras, and the increased traffic should really help your bottom line.
Using "guarantee" when you are marketing is a great idea. Customers want to know that your product is a sure bet before they part with their hard-earned cash. There should be different guarantees offered for each product. A 90-day or lifetime guarantee would work. Match different types of guarantees to different types of products.
Real-time leads are necessary if you are looking to increase sales. Real-time leads give you instant access to customers that are ready to buy. You should not slack on contacting them; this way you will be more apt to get the sale.
Frequently updating your content will likely affect your traffic. Continue employing the Internet marketing techniques that are successful but keep trying new methods to increase your business. It really works to pay attention to the needs of your customer.
The advertisement of your product should always be positive and inspiring. Tell potential customers about what types of benefits and opportunities your product can provide. Your encouragement and positive attitude toward the capability of your audience will be enthusiastically contagious.
The advice in this article can help you get your business off the ground. They will give you a strong foundation to help your network marketing business thrive.

Eating gluten free is a trend that just keeps on growing and the movement is showing no signs of slowing down. Less than 1% of Australians have been diagnosed with coeliac disease and for some people, the adverse effects of gluten consumption are very real. For others, they often just feel better when they leave gluten out of their diet or they are onboard with the latest gluten free health craze. Whatever it is, eating gluten free can have its benefits.
Nowadays, choosing to eliminate gluten from your diet is much easier. There are a whole host of products and brands available that cater for the gluten free consumer and leaving gluten off your plate occasionally can be beneficial to your health. Foods like cake, pizza and beer, which are often loaded with gluten and should only be consumed occasionally, are eliminated on a gluten free diet. As well, when you are not consuming those types of foods, you are also reducing your intake of refined sugars, carbohydrates and unhealthy fats.
On the other hand, eliminating gluten entirely means you also say no to many common and nutritious foods such as barley, rye and wheat which are fantastic sources of plant based proteins, vitamins and minerals. Avoiding these whole grain foods entirely can also reduce the amount of beneficial fibre in your diet which is needed to maintain a healthy digestive system.
If you have a vegetarian or vegan diet, a lot of emphasis is often placed on foods that you can't eat. The same applies for gluten. However, how about turning that around and focusing on all the amazing foods you CAN eat if you have a gluten intolerance. So much of the food we eat (or should be eating) on a daily basis is naturally gluten free and the options available for those wanting to consume less products with gluten are endless.
So, should you be eating gluten free if you don't have coeliac disease or a gluten intolerance? That choice is up to you. I personally like to skip the gluten occasionally by including nutritious products like the Vegie Delights Gluten Free Lentil Patties in my diet. With this in mind, a well-balanced approach to eating with small amounts of gluten every so often is a great way to eliminate certain foods but if you choose to avoid gluten by choice, make sure you're still including plenty of whole grains in your diet.
Jump on over to the Vegie Delights Healthy Living Blog for my tips and great recipe ideas.

HUNTSVILLE, AL (WAFF) - The Better Business Bureau is warning you about a bogus debt scam targeting people in the Tennessee Valley. People are getting calls from scammers claiming you owe them a debt, and the caller on the other line threatens to have you picked up if you don't pay up. Most people will go to great lengths to protect their credit and good name, and that is what some scammers are banking on.
Out of the blue, the victim receives a threatening phone call. "They will tell them that they are about to be arrested because they have an outstanding debt," explained Michele Mason with the BBB. "But if they will work with them, they can negotiate a price that you will pay, and that will avoid your being arrested."
In the most recent scenario, the victim receives a call from someone who claims they are about to come and serve a summons for their arrest, but they give an 800 number for the person to call. When you call, you hear a recording which prompts you to press 1 if you would like to negotiate an outstanding debt.
"These are bogus collections," warned Mason. "They are going to try to get you to second-guess yourself and think that maybe you do have an outstanding debt. And to avoid any arrest or a bad mark on your credit report, they are going to hope you will go ahead and try to negotiate something with them."
You could be paying hundreds of dollars for a debt you do not owe. "In a lot of cases, they are going to try to get you to wire the money because that won't leave a paper trail, but in some cases they want this quickly, so they may ask for a credit card number," said Mason.
Once they have your number, they can immediately use it to shop online and make purchases. "If you owe a debt, this company contacting you should be able to provide you with proof of the debt in writing," said Mason. "Ask them to mail you proof of the debt. If they are not willing to do that, then you should feel no obligation to pay it."
Michele added that if someone actually does come to your door with a summons, you would have ample opportunity to defend yourself. She said what they're finding with this particular scam is that once they ask you to provide documentation, they hang up.
More information about phone collection scams can be found at the BBB's website.

Ever since I have seen a photo a cerulean warbler, I wanted to see one. I finally saw the bird this week at Miesville Ravine Park. I was unable to get a good photo, so I went back. It was very early in the morning about 6 AM when I drove into the ravine and noticed some birds on a pile of brush across the road. I stopped and set up my rig. I was standing there looking when I heard something breathing in the trees along the road next to my car. It was that close. I heard low grunts and breathing. Why didn't it run away? Listening to this was spooking me, so I left. I went to Miesville Ravine Park-just a small place deep in the woods, where there is no cell phone service. I parked and walked along a trail to look for the cerulean warbler and was unable to find it. I heard a car stop. I was spooked again. Who was coming here at 6AM? A fisherman? I walked back to my car,
got in and drove across the road to another parking area. I saw an old beat up Honda with a man slinked down behind the steering wheel. He wasn't getting out to go fishing. Was he a field worker killing time before work? Safety first, and I definitely did not feel safe here. I will have to look for the cerulean warbler in another place. The next day I went to Shaar's bluff, where I feel very safe and photographed an orchard oriole.

Andrew Isaacs camps at UConn, gets offer
June, 21, 2011
By Roger Brown
Connecticut recruiting coordinator Matt Cerosimo couldn't have been more straightforward in his dealings with tight end Andrew Isaacs (Manchester, Conn./Manchester). "He told me, 'If you attend our camp you might earn yourself a scholarship,' '' Isaacs said. "So I went to their one-day camp [Sunday] and did my thing. When I left camp he said he liked how I looked." Cerosimo must have been impressed with what he saw, because he called Isaacs with a scholarship offer Monday morning. Isaacs, who also has an offer from Boston College, may be the best prospect from New England in the class of 2013.

I've been coming to Gin's since 1980 for the excellence of its food, the courtesy of the entire staff and the friendliness of the Gin family...can't beat it!
Food here is delicious and the price is great, my kids make me travel across town for the egg rolls. Anytime I ask were they wanna go eat, its always Gins!
I called for take out and received good phone service and even better in person service. Friendly, family run business with good food. Made girls night in a success!
I have been a long time fan of Gins. The servers are efficient and friendly. The food is all delicious. It is cooked perfectly, fresh and is always served hot. The "SALTY SHRIMP" is a real treat (not too salty) -I highly recommend it. It...More
Great, quick, friendly service and nice lunch specials! We've been here a couple of times and it really is a good choice for Chinese food! Wish it was closer to where I live and we could order take-out!!
The food is absolutely amazing. I've been coming here forever!! I definitely recommend the orange chicken, and pan fried dumplings. They have the best green beans I've tasted. Consistently Gin's has served us well.
Very yummy - it's hard to find good Chinese food in SA, but we had to try as we've heard great things about Gin. We started with Fried Pork Dumplings and Crab Rangoons - both had a lot of filling and they were so good!...More
This is one of the restaurants we really miss. Food is fantastic, the portions are overflowing, the price is still so cheap. Service is good and fast. The fried dumplings make your mouth water.
I've been going to this place since 1995 and not much has changed, that includes the decor. The service leaves a lot to desire, but the food is really good. I always get Kung Pao Chicken and Crab Rangoons.
I looked for a close to home chinese where I could call in and pick up quick. So Gins won out. Especially people said Lemon Chicken is good. I called to make sure all white meat, it is and so I ordered it w/white rice...More

Breathe New Life into Old Frames
We all have a variety of picture frames that are dated, damaged or mismatched. You've probably received some as gifts, bought special frames for a specific picture, had family photos passed on to you or have old frames that just aren't your style anymore. Instead of throwing them away or donating them, have some fun reviving them!
Here are just a few ideas to give your old frames some new life;
? If you have a group of pictures with frames that are different styles and colors, refinishing them all the same color will give your collection a more cohesive look.
? Designate one wall in your home for a black and white photo gallery; spray paint your old frames either a flat or gloss black then add a crisp white or cream mat with a black and white or sepia photograph. (You can take your color photos and have them copied in black and white or sepia at your nearest photo center). This will add a wonderful dramatic flair to any room.
? Cover a damaged or dated frame with silver or gold leaf. (You can purchase kits at your favorite craft or hardware store). This will conceal the damage and add an elegant touch to your home.
? Display your children's artwork with your old or new inexpensive frames painted in primary colors in their play room. This will make your kids feel proud of there artistic talent! You can also display them in your garage with a more stylish frame, after a hard day at work you'll come home and the first thing you'll see is your children's beautiful work!
? Dry brush metallic bronze paint to highlight your plain black frames; this will give them a softer, more updated look.
There are so many different ways to transform your old frames; you'll be amazed at how creative you can be! Have fun!

Bush wants states' Medicaid spending plans in advance
The Bush administration is proposing that states submit in advance their Medicaid spending plans so federal officials can curb questionable practices, according to news reports.
It also proposes a cap on federal payments to states for administrative costs related to Medicaid, according to Leighton Ku, an analyst for the Center on Budget and Policy Priorities. These proposals were included in draft legislation forwarded last week to Senate and House leaders, the Senate Finance Committee and the House Energy and Commerce Committee.
The Department of Health and Human Services is proposing to eliminate Medicaid matching funds to states that use the money for other purposes, according to published reports.

I have read a lot about weight gain with this drug. I have maintained the same body weight (low/normal) for most of my adult life. I am 56. I would like to know other's experiences with this drug and it's effects on weight. Although I am exhausted I do not want to gain weight!
I am starting amitriptyline 25 mg tonight for insomnia and?

With most tricyclic antidepressants there is usually weight gain. Im on Tofranil which is a tricyclic antidepressant. But, the weight gain shouldn't be really a large amount. I would definitely continue taking this antidepressant which can help definitely with insomnia. These antidepressants are so much better for insomnia and anxiety compared to the SSRI antidepressants, like paxil, Prozac, etc. I recommend tricyclics over SSRI meds anyday!
Thank you for your input! I will continue and see what happens. My doctor statred me on 25 mg and said to take 1-2 tablets every evening. I've taken 25 mg for the past 3 nights and am going to try 1/2 tablet tonight. Has anyone gotten relief at 12.5 mg? I have also suffered from migraines for 30 years and am hoping this will help. So far I have woken up with a headache every day, a "pre-migraine" so I have taken Excedrin or fioricet to prevent a full blown migraine. I feel frustrated. Not sure if it will take awhile to get the benefits I hope to get.
If you feel that the Elavil is causing you to have migraine headaches, I would talk to my dr. to see if the Elavil could be the cause. He may decide to switch you to another medication. I hope you feel better soon!

(Psalm 56: 8-11) 8 You have kept count of my tossings; put my tears in your bottle. Are they not in your book? 9 Then my enemies will turn back in the day when I call. This I know, that God is for me. 10 In God, whose word I praise, in the Lord, whose word I praise, 11 in God I trust; I shall not be afraid. What can man do to me?
When I was in the second grade, I checked out a book from the school library called Scary Stories to tell in the Dark. I knew it was a bad idea but I did it anyway. I had seen it at the book fair and was not allowed to purchase it, so I thought I would just sneak and check it out. My curious nature got best of me. That night, I curled up in my bed with a flashlight and the book and I read the entire thing. As you can probably guess, I couldn't get to sleep. I had entertained fear and now every noise and every movement, to me, was a ghost or demon. I was too afraid to move, paralyzed by my own imagination, and eventually I had to call out to my dad to come and "help" me. We both lost sleep that night, and I got into a lot of trouble!
Isn't that how it is with us, even as adults? We allow fear to inhabit our thoughts and it takes up residence there until we eventually have to call out to "dad" (Father God) to come to the rescue. How often do you greet and entertain your fears? The truth of the matter is, no matter your age, fear can rule your thoughts and greatly affect your choices when you give place to it. And that fear, it's like a stray cat…feed it, and it will stick around until it becomes your pet.
A wise old Jedi named Yoda once said (yep, I'm using Star Wars reference), "Fear is the path to the dark side. Fear leads to anger, anger leads to hate, hate leads to suffering." Maybe you're afraid of people…people who are a different race, who are foreign, who practice a different religion, people who have been in jail, people who have threatened you, or even people that you just don't know. But are we not called to love? 1 John 4:18 says, "There is no fear in love, but perfect love drives out fear, because fear has to do with punishment. The one who fears is not made perfect in love."
Maybe you're afraid of every "what if" and "worst case scenario" that pops into your mind. Whatever your big fear may be, that thing that festers in your thoughts every single day, you have authority in Christ to banish that thought like the stray cat that it is. "For though we walk in flesh, we are not waging war according to the flesh. For the weapons of our warfare are not of the flesh, but have divine power to destroy strongholds." (2 Corinthians 10:3-4)
It all comes down to choice. You can choose to focus on fear and allow it to grow and thrive, or you can follow the advice that Paul gives us in Philippians 4:8 when he says, "Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is commendable, if there is any excellence, if there is anything worthy of praise, think about these things."
PRAYER: Heavenly Father, Thank you for the wisdom of your word and the ability to understand it and apply it to the real situations in my life. I'm so grateful that in YOU I have power over fear today and every day. Amen

Early voting begins in North Carolina
Early voting begins in North Carolina
The early-voting period is underway in North Carolina.
The early-voting period began Thursday, with at least one site open in each of the 100 counties. The early-voting period covers 17 days until Nov. 5. It grew by a week after a federal court struck down a 2013 law scaling back the number of days.
Early in-person voting has been very popular - 56 percent of people who voted in the 2012 presidential election cast ballots by that method. People can also register to vote at early-voting centers and vote at the same time.
This fall's ballot features races for president, U.S. Senate, governor, the Council of State and a host of judicial and local races.

Behind the scenes with John Leguizamo
Behind the scenes with John Leguizamo
The film and Broadway star brings an HBO taping of his Ghetto Klown to the Victoria Theater.
John Leguizamo has performed his solo play Ghetto Klown many times, in many venues and in one other language since its Broadway run in 2011. But his short stay at NJPAC's intimate Victoria Theater will result in millions of viewers being able to enjoy the show.
People won't be stacked ear to ear to the top tier or spill out of the theater's doors to reach that head count during the four performances. The NJPAC appearances are being taped by HBO for future broadcast, an enterprise that echoes October's week-long residency of BET's Black Girls Rock! awards ceremony, telecast earlier this month. (HBO previously aired another of Leguizamo's hit shows, Freak, an Emmy winner directed by Spike Lee.)
Last things first: Following his opening night performance, Leguizamo returned to the stage to meet with fans, who included students of NJPAC's Arts Education programs and members and guests of the Advisory Council's Latino subcommittee. More and more ticket holders lingered when word spread of the Q&A, also attended by Ghetto Klown director Fisher Stevens – a noted stage and screen actor himself – and original producer Arnold Engelman of WestBeth Entertainment.
Leguizamo, who wrote the semiautobiographical Ghetto Klown, as well as earlier successes like Mambo Mouth and Sexaholix … A Love Story, fielded questions and chatted with well-wishers afterward. The actor and comedic storyteller cited his influences as Richard Pryor, Whoopi Goldberg and monologists Spalding Gray and Eric Bogosian. Born in Bogatá, raised in Queens, he was gratified to present a Spanish-language version of Ghetto Klown recently in the city of his birth.
He and Stevens riffed on their working relationship, which began after they were slapped by Actors' Equity for their frat-boy stunts during a production of A Midsummer Night's Dream. Because Leguizamo portrays multiple characters in Ghetto Klown – ranging from his ex-wife to his grandfather – Stevens said he will often address his stage notes to that particular character.
Leguizamo advised a student from Arts High School in Newark to battle stage fright by using this technique: "You're not thinking about fear or criticism if you get lost in the character." To aspiring playwrights, he suggested "write what turns you on … then you'll have a unique voice." And to a pair of fledgling comedians from the Bronx: "Don't accept 'no.' … Start your own clubs and make it happen." (Here Engelman mentioned that Ghetto Klown began in a 100-seat theater with a $10 ticket price.)
My, how it's grown. The laugh-saturated and frequently poignant Ghetto Klown journeys through the decades of Leguizamo's life and career, incorporating photos and film clips of his Hollywood escapades. The actor's impressions break outside the family circle, with wicked portrayals of former co-stars Al Pacino (Carlito's Way), Steven Seagal (Executive Decision) and Patrick Swayze (To Wong Foo, Thanks for Everything! Julie Newmar).
Maybe he didn't become "the Latino Al Pacino" that his first drama teacher predicted, but he holds bragging rights as one of theatrical comedy's most beloved character chameleons.

Meeting the Needs of Post-Traditional Students
By Sally Johnstone
Vice President for Academic Advancement, WGU
In the past 20 years, the types of people enrolled in colleges have changed. This is likely to continue as state after state sets goals for the percentage of its citizens who need some type of post-secondary credential.
These goals cannot be met with only the usual group of high school graduates.
Today, the majority of post-traditional students are 25 or older and juggling work and family responsibilities. Universities must develop programs to fit the needs of these students rather than expecting all students to fit into a traditionally structured system. WGU was designed to serve just this set of students. It was developed as a competency-based education institution.
Interest in competency-based education, or CBE, is growing throughout the field of higher education. Instead of being designed around semesters or classes, CBE allows students to advance by demonstrating that they have mastered the skills and knowledge designated by the faculty. With CBE, students, not the institution, set the pace. We acknowledge that students come to college with varying levels of knowledge and very different ways of learning. CBE lets them move quickly through what they already know so they can focus on the things they still need to learn. This saves students time and money.
The CBE model has proved successful with thousands of students, such as recent WGU Texas graduate Erika Thomas, who continued to put her degree on hold because she needed a flexible schedule for learning. A layoff was a wake-up call for Erika to get her degree and be marketable to employers. She made it a full-time venture and completed her degree in six months.
There's also Mary Harris, who chose WGU Texas because the CBE model allowed her to apply what she already knew from her nursing career.
CBE is gaining widespread acceptance and positive recognition from the White House, Congress, many states, and leaders throughout the higher education community. I recently had the opportunity to share WGU's success in CBE during the Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board's TAB (Texas Affordable Baccalaureate) Lab in Austin, which was attended by many higher education institutions developing their own CBE programs.
As the U.S. continues to look for ways to grow and sustain a well-trained and educated workforce, higher education institutions need to expand the options for earning a college degree. WGU is a real trailblazer in this space and is a proof of concept for CBE. It focuses on measuring and ensuring learning, which is an innovation that works for the 21st century.

Dr Beth Greenhough
Associate Professor of Human Geography
Tutorial Fellow in Geography
A warm welcome to my home page and to Geography at Keble. I am a Tutorial Fellow here at Keble where I teach undergraduates in human and environmental geography. I also hold a post as Associate Professor in the School of Geography and the Environment, where I lecture on Environmental Geographies, Geographies of Nature and the Masters course in Nature, Society and Environmental Governance. For me it is a privilege to be working with such a great group of fellows and students here at Keble, and I take inspiration from sharing ideas across my teaching and research.
Research Interests
My research is concerned with the ways in which humans and animals become resources for biomedical research, including issues such as the ways in which people are recruited as biobank donors or clinical trial subjects and the use of animals in biomedical research. I argue that we can gain insights into the relationships between humans and their environment in the twenty-first century by exploring the ways human bodies and animal bodies are accessed, produced and commodified as resources for biomedical exploration.

Positively Good Productions
"Making a Positively Good difference"
Politically correct behavior?
What happened to socially correct behavior?
Where have all the good manners
Many want what they want yesterday,
and they don't care who they offend
in order to fulfill their desires.
This page was designed to reinforce and teach civility and common courtesy.
We want to give children the confidence to handle whatever comes their way
and to understand the importance of respect, consideration, and honesty...
the principles behind etiquette.
What are good manners?
Good manners are life skills.
It is considering the feelings of other people,
and being the kind of person that others will like and respect.
It is civilized behavior.
Courtesy, politeness, respecting others, and ourselves is key.
The Golden Rule
"Always do to others
as you would wish them to do to you...
if you were in their place."
To apply the Golden Rule,
simply ask yourself
"How would you like to be treated
in the same situation?"
Then treat the other person that way.
"Treat others as you would like to be treated,"
this includes all other people.
If we are respectful to others,
then we are more likely to be treated with respect by them.
the end result could be detrimental to our children.
There's a reason for that old adage:
"You catch more flies with honey than vinegar"
or some such wording.
Our daily experiences are better
when couched in terms of please and thank you.
How would you feel if someone:
*Never said 'Please' or 'Thank you'
*Talked to your friend but turned their back to you?
*Pushed you out of the way to get the seat you were about to sit on?
*Drove in the wrong way and took your parking space?
*Made fun of you to evoke laughter from others
knowing that your feelings would be hurt?
*Let the door slam in your face as you were about to walk through it?
Some people are guilty of looking back to see if anyone is there,
and still not hold the door for the person behind them...
rather, they let it slam almost in their face.
Try holding the door for someone behind you.
This is what "Good manners" look like:
Good manners is being helpful
and polite to others.
Good manners does not make jokes
at another's expense.
Good manners says 'Please' and 'Thank you'.
Good manners yields and allows another to have the seat,
especially an older person, pregnant woman, or child.
Good manners is respectful
of their property and the property of others.
Good manners puts rubbish into trash bins.
Good manners yields and allows another
to have the parking space.
Good manners yields and allows another
entrance into the traffic lane.
Good manners shares and does not keep the best for themselves.
Good manners is being mindful of the tone and volume of our
voice. Well mannered people realize that talking or laughing too loudly
can attract the wrong kind of attention.
Good manners says good morning, good afternoon, good
evening, good night if they are entering a room or walking past another.
Good manners asks if they can borrow something, They don't just take it.
Good manners takes care and returns things they borrowed.
Good manners waits their turn before speaking.
Good manners holds the door open for the person coming in.
Good manners puts shopping carts away properly.
Good manners flushes the toilet in public and private restrooms.
We Never Get a Second Chance
To Make A Good First Impression!
Whether it be a job interview, a business meeting or a social function,
people often reach instant conclusions – positive or negative –
on how they regard others within the first 15 to 30 seconds of meeting them.
Social graces, common sense, and pure plain manners
seem to be a thing of the past in far too many homes.
It seems to have a direct correlation
to how some children treat their teachers,
other students, and often...
their own parents.
Does your child use bad manners at home?
Would you be embarrassed if your child's bad manners surfaced in public?
As quiet as it's kept...
We can and should help our children find practical ways to use basic manners
so they will become automatic for years to come.
Train a child in the way he should go,
and when he is old he will not turn from it.
Proverbs 22:6
Non verbal communication of manners matters.
In communication...
seventy percent of what we communicate is non verbal. The way
we walk, sit and stand all communicate our reason for being there.
People have already made a decision, on some level, as to whether or
not they will listen to us.
Most people judge others by their actions,
and themselves by their intentions.
"It is not what you say which matters, it is what you do."
"It is how you look, how you stand,..." and so on.
Leadership is influence.
Parents have the power to exert
powerful positive influences!
If we are mannerly ourselves, of course, children will do as we do.
We have to decide that bad manners will not be tolerated
at home or outside of the home... period.
We need to help our children figure out and navigate
through a variety of situations and know the respectful
and considerate thing to do... when confronted.
The examples we display in every day life are key.
Our children are watching us.
Being a good role model is key,
because children do emulate adults' behavior.
Everything rises and falls on leadership. For our children to develop
values that are essential to being
courteous, they need to see those same qualities in the people whom
they respect. We need to raise polite children in these impolite times.
Children come into this world as a blank slate. It is up to the parents
to inscribe upon the fertile grounds of their children's hearts and
minds... love, self-respect, dignity, humanity, family,
and good manners.
Teaching our children good manners helps to keep them
on the course of graciousness and success.
It's much easier to teach good manners
while our children are young
than it is to break bad habits when they are old.
Train up a child in the way he/she should go,
and when he/she is old he/she
will not depart from it.
Proverbs 22:6
We should teach our children to say:
Please, May I,
Thank you, I'm sorry
Excuse me.
Teaching our children about
respect is the most
important and enduring job
a parent will ever have.
Good manners equals good children.
Bring children up virtuously and they will continue so.
Fathers, do not provoke your children to anger,
but bring them up in the discipline and instruction of the Lord.
These parental mandates
are good rules
for adults to live by too.
Politeness counts!
Want your child to grow into a thoughtful, loving, creative person
who will possess resilience, generosity, curiosity, consideration for others,
respect and perseverance?
Then, we need to be teaching our children manners.
It's agreed: manners need to be taught to our children. Teaching our children
manners gives them "lifelong survival skills." They give children an advantage.
By learning and using manners, children become more confident.
They are also more comfortable when they know how to get along with others.
Providing a supportive and affirming role is a parent's essential task for life.
For children to be successful in life,
they need to have social skills as well as academic skills.
We should teach our children how to listen, to apologize,
to be successful in social interactions with their peers.
And if we help our young children learn polite and caring behavior,
they will continue to use good manners and become more socially aware
as they get older.
When children are polite, kind, and honest... they develop character.
May we raise our children to be polite and teach them manners
and help them truly value politeness.
Direct your children onto the right path,
and when they are older, they will not leave it.

Hardships of Covered Wagon Journey Across Plains Recalled By Pioneer
(Written by Mary Frances Patton Welch, a 90 year old Ashland pioneer ... article tells of the family 1862 journey across the plains with her grandfather, captain of the emigrant train of 100 persons and of their perils and adventures enroute).
Our family consisted of Mr. and Mrs. John Parham, who were my grandparents, Mr. and Mrs. William Patton who were my parents, my little sister Ettie and myself. Sister Annie was born on the way, near American Falls on the Snake River in Idaho. Mother thought she would get through the trip before the stork arrived, but as there was a doctor in our emigrant train, she and baby were taken care of. When the baby was only three days old we had a fight with Indians.
Women out west treated MUCH differently ...
[We] had to pass through a canyon where the women drove and the men fought all the way through.
The younger generation does not realize the hardships the pioneers had ... We children had to walk two miles to school and two miles back each day. There were wild cattle, rattlesnakes, ringsnakes, and once in a while we heard a panther scream. There was plenty of game such as wild hogs, turkeys, quail, plenty of fish in the streams so our meat did not cost anything ... We girls helped to drive the cattle. We had no saddles, only surcingles and blankets for our horses. We were several weeks on the trip. ... In some places they had to cut down small trees and tie them to the back of the wagons to use for brakes.
We milked some of the cows, put the cream in a chum and by the end of a day's travel we would have several pounds of butter-the motion of the wagon churned it. Our bread was baked in a dutch oven.

|Assembly Hall - Worthing
|15 March 2001
|by David Garner
Sadly the Assembly Hall was only just over half full. Previous years had seen Rick play at the smaller but more intimate Pavilion Theatre. Still, if Rick was disappointed he never showed it and gave the audience their moneys worth. He played a great and varied set with vocals added to many songs that we have become used to hearing as instrumentals.
Without giving too much away for those yet to see this tour, it is quite different from last year. Rick included two songs from 1984, his collaboration with Tim Rice, in which Ramon gave a wonderful rendition of Julia, previously sung by Chaka Khan. This song particularly suited his operatic style a very moving and emotional piece. The Hymn section was just magic.
Rick had some very funny new stories about his friend and fellow Yes member Jon Anderson, a great anecdote about Cat Stevens and Ricks playing on the original single Morning has Broken. This song was one of the evenings highlights with great playing from Rick and excellent singing from Ramon. Rick told us about how he had to write After the Ball on the spur of the moment theres talent for you. We heard about NASAs chicken firing gun, which tests the windscreens of trains? You dont believe me? Youll have to hear this one for yourself.
On this night we didnt hear anything from The Six Wives, Journey or Arthur. Rick opened the show with a wonderful version of Dance of a 1000 Lights from Return to the Centre of the Earth, with recorded orchestral accompaniment. The evening never flagged from start to finish. It was good to hear Sea Horses again and how Rick came to write the piece. Credit should go to Ramon for his part in the show. He gave a wonderful rendition of Nessun Dorma with Rick sounding like a Symphony Orchestra. Did anyone know that Rick has written an operetta? Well he has and it was a unique piece of theatre with great interplay between the two artists.
The evening ended with Rick thanking everyone for their support over the years It was given freely and willingly Rick. The show ended with an excellent vocal version of Fool on the Hill and the by now concert standard of Eleanor Rigby in the style of Prokofiev. A few waves from Rick and Ramon and the evening was sadly over.
We can only hope that this wasnt Ricks last UK tour and as the flyer said Miss this one at your peril.

Steve Hansen today accepted one of the toughest jobs in world rugby by becoming Wales' latest national coach.
The New Zealander has been appointed until the end of the 2003/04 season with the task of restoring Wales' respectability especially at next year's World Cup.
Hansen has still to formerly sign the contract though only a few details need to be sorted out.
Hansen has been caretaker coach for the past three matches after taking over from fellow Kiwi Graham Henry who quit in the wake of the record 54-10 Lloyds TSB Six Nations defeat by Ireland in Dublin last February.
The 42-year-old former Canterbury coach had joined Henry's backroom staff this season as an assistant forwards coach on a reputed salary of #120,000. His new role should see that figure jump to well over #150,000.
Now he becomes Wales' ninth coach in the last 13 years, taking on a job that has had a brief life span for many of his predecessors.
Hansen had insisted he would not carry on in any capacity had he not got the job full time.
It was thought the Welsh Rugby Union might delay any announcement until after tomorrow's final Six Nations match with Scotland, but sprang a surprise by revealing the appointment as the Welsh players went through their final training session this morning.
"I never thought tomorrow's game would decide my future," said Hansen, who has the full support of the players.
"To be honest it has not been a weight on my mind. It was up to the WRU to decide who they wanted.
"There are still some negotiations but I do not think they should be too much of a problem if everyone is honest and fair with each other.
"My job will be to help the players play as well as they possibly can."
Hansen's appointment comes on a huge weekend that will determine the future of Welsh rugby as its 239 member clubs meet in Cardiff on Sunday.
The clubs will vote on proposals by WRU to reduce its number of professional clubs from nine to the so-called gang of six.
But Hansen's main concern is overcoming Scotland and ensuring Wales clinch fourth place in the championship, ahead of their Millennium Stadium opponents.
The teams go into their final games with two points each courtesy of their victories over Italy.
Hansen, whose side lost their other games in his caretaking role to France and England, insists his appointment will have no bearing on the game against Scotland.
"The Scots are not going to lie down because I have got the coaching job," he added.
"It's nice for me, but it really has nothing to do with what's going to happen tomorrow."
Wales were given a further boost today as outside half Stephen Jones passed a fitness test on the back injury that ruled him out of the 50-10 hammering by England a fortnight ago.
Hansen said: "Stephen will bring his experience and enthusiasm and a few other things hopefully."
The return of the Llanelli number 10 sees Iestyn Harris, the #1million import from rugby league, drop back to the bench although the former Leeds Rhino has been assured he will get onto the field.
Wales will show six changes from the side beaten by England while scrum half Rob Howley will make his 59th and final appearance before retiring from the international stage.

Red Hat Bugzilla – Bug 183555
bio and biovec-1 total slab sizes grow until machine is unusable
Last modified: 2015-01-04 17:25:41 EST
Description of problem:
My Athlon64X2 desktop has 2GB of RAM. Rebooting the box every day into a newer
rawhide kernel, it's quite usable, but if I miss a reboot, using it on the next
day is intolerable. slabtop shows the bio and biovec-1 total sizes grow taking
up most of the available RAM:
6796500 6794136 99% 0.04K 73875 92 295500K biovec-1
6796440 6794138 99% 0.12K 226548 30 906192K bio
09:48:58 up 17:05, 12 users, load average: 1.82, 1.72, 1.93
Mem: 2055876k total, 2033228k used, 22648k free, 5400k buffers
Swap: 4194288k total, 155296k used, 4038992k free, 249476k cached
A few hours later, when I finally rebooted the box, bio had grown to 990K and
biovec-1 was reaching 350K. This was with kernel-2.6.15-1.1991_FC5.x86_64.
With today's kernel, 1996, the problem does not appear to be fixed. bio and
biovec-1 were much smaller right after I booted up (100k entries each), but now,
just 2 hours later, they're already at the top of slabtop:
252080 251972 99% 0.04K 2740 92 10960K biovec-1
252030 251977 99% 0.12K 8401 30 33604K bio
On nearly-identical boxes running FC4 at the uni, bio and biovec-1 don't even
show up on slabtop, neither on the disk servers (that only differ in the number
of local disks) nor on the desktop box, so all use patterns are covered.
On the previous session, I'd plugged in my external disk connected over
firewire. This time, pondering that might be it, I didn't even do that, but it
keeps growing anyway. It's probably not it anyway, because my x86_64 notebook
has a firewire disk permanently connected to it, mirroring the internal disk,
and bio and biovec-1 are not on the map there. It also uses RAID in pretty much
the same way.
Oh, another difference in software configuration is that I use the VESA driver
for X on this box, whereas the boxes at the uni use radeon. Could this possibly
cause bio and biovec-1 slabs to grow like that? With the nv driver, on the
other notebook, no such effect occurs.
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
How reproducible:
Every time
Steps to Reproduce:
1.Boot the box up
2.Use it normally
Actual results:
Next day, it's unusable. Disk caches shrink and need for swap sky rockets as
slab space devoted to bio and biovec-1 takes up all memory.
Expected results:
No such memory leak
