My last article was the beginning of presenting your business, either to bring in more business, marketing or a fund-raising campaign. I started off at the top. Now let's take a look at the rest of how you create a great presentation.
My last article was the beginning of presenting your business, either to bring in more business, marketing or a fund-raising campaign. I started off at the top. Now let's take a look at the rest of how you create a great presentation.
The way you present yourself physically can be the difference between an OK or awesome presentation. Your body language is more than just your posture, it's how you stand and hold yourself on the platform. Your voice is not the only way you project confidence, your body will tell the story too. Stand erect but not stiff or still. Look relaxed. Ha!
Just a reminder, in case you are among the group that would rather be in front of a firing squad than in front of an audience — True, death seems more palatable to some than speaking in public, but if presenting your business is the path you have decided to take than go the extra mile and make it worthwhile. Make eye contact with the audience, think about whether you are mentally talking to the group or is your goal to reach each individual in the group? Some people think a good technique is to look over the audience heads so it looks like you are speaking to all of them. Wrong, it's not possible to speak to all of them, so therefore none of your audience feels like you are speaking to them. That technique won't win you the personal connection necessary to be believable. A good presenter needs to win the audience — by looking over the heads you are disconnected and eliminating the possibility to connect.
Instead, if nervousness has you beside yourself, pick one or two people in the first few rows and imagine you are talking directly to them. It changes your demeanor entirely. It will help connect and make it feel personal to them as well as you. It helps alleviate nervousness because we are less nervous when we are talking to one or two people than a crowd. It will enable you to think clearer on your feet and keep you in control.
Project your message with confidence and conviction and do it with your posture and body gestures. Eighty three percent of information is absorbed through sight. When you have a big point, use big arm movements, unglue your elbows from your sides, spread your arms out and draw in your audience, big point, big motions. Use the floor space available to you. Move around. When was the last time you saw someone be exciting while looking like their shoes were nailed to the floor? Project your message using all of you.
Using visual aids such as PowerPoint can be a plus or not. If you are going to use PowerPoint, keep the slides short and to the point. The more information you have on a slide, the more they are reading over your shoulder and hearing you less. You're the one with the good information; use the PowerPoint for emphasis not the other way around. Create visuals that will either clarify your point or reinforces what you are saying.
Pictures are good and funny pictures are better. Silly images or a cartoon is also very effective, if you can make them laugh while driving home the point you've got a winner. Candid pictures of children have a unique way of making a connection and driving the point home. Use your imagination because the sky is the limit, but be certain that whatever idea or creativity streak you come up with is done in good taste.
Sound and look excited. Look alert and convey enthusiasm.
Avoid using industry jargon. If listeners don't understand your words they drift off trying to figure out what you are saying and miss the good stuff. Don't date yourself with language or idioms from long ago, such as "cool;" I think the current "cool" is "phat." I can't quite wrap my head around that one; the last thing a mature woman wants to be is "phat!"
Make the benefits crystal clear, no matter how excited you are. If the audience members don't see what's in it for them, you have wasted precious time, theirs and yours. If possible, make assumptions of what the monetary benefit might be, or what the good will factor might be. Financial benefits are a good attention getter.
Have fun with it because if you're not having some fun neither is your audience.

DC BasketCases
A friendly asylum for a couple of crazy DC-area women's basketball fans, where we share some news, some opinions, as well as a little of almost anything else that our demented minds dredge up having to do with the WNBA, the Maryland Terrapins, or any other team, player or character associated with the world of women's hoops.

This 11 year season ticket holder is gone. I hope that the players enjoy playing in Turkey, since it clear that they don't appreciate DC.

Abysmal. I'm always hesitant to judge too harshly when I don't actually get to see the game as sometimes the numbers can make the game look worse than it was. Not always - but sometimes. However, with this team when the pattern of numbers repeats itself so many times, it's hard to give the benefit of the doubt.
Clearly, we aren't the most talented team in the league - I know that's the understatement of the century - but we still have talented players who are better than this. If I gave this kind of effort in my job, well, I'm not sure I'd have a job anymore.
Even when everything is going to hell during a game, there is just no excuse to not play good defense. You might not be able to get the ball in the basket for yourself, but you can damn sure try to stop the other team from doing so.

Yes, yes, but what about the halftime performance?!?
Serious wardrobe malfunctions were NOT his only problem. I think he literally mumbled most of his "song" and his makeup made him look dead! Throw in some listless backup dancers and you've got a recipe for AWESOME.

Business Blogging Mistakes–Are You Guilty?
Blogging Bad Habits, they are easy to fall into, believe me!
It seems that these days pretty much every business these days has a blog, but that doesn't mean everyone is doing it the right way, If you've just decided to start a new blog for your business or you have been blogging for a long time, I have some tips that you may find interesting.
Something u may find interesting as well: 7 Blunders to avoid when starting your own blog in 2012
HubSpot "has found that companies that blog generate 55% more website visitors, 97% more inbound links, and have 434% more indexed pages than companies that don't. Even if you're posting once a week, you may not have leveraged the full power of content creation for your small business brand".
1. Not Posting Consistently
Having a great idea for a blog is one thing, spending 1-2 days a week putting together lengthy articles is another, it is time consuming, but keep in mind it can be very rewarding. Before you launch your blog, decide how often you'll be able to blog, keep it fresh, you will want people to have a reason to come back to read what you have posted. A good idea is to write a few articles ahead of time so you have backup postings for the times when the kids got ya busy, or the husband/wife wants your attention. I get into more detail about this in my article: Small Business Blog, Where to Begin Pt.2
2. Thinking Your Blog Is A Good Promotional Tool
Your blog shouldn't be a Billboard! think about you, when you read blogs, if your looking for some useful information on a topic, you don't want to be flooded with advertisements, post articles that reflect what you like, that's related to your specific business, Have fun with it, sure you can advertise your business but do it in a tactful way, for example, I Run a computer consulting company, I like to blog about helpful items related to the internet or computers, I can offer this resource to my customers, present and potential as a useful source of information, this gives me a link to my potential clients, but doesn't make them feel like I am pushing my services at them.
3. Not Interacting With Your Readers
your blog isn't a static web page, its not a simple press release, its actually a great way for you to interact with your customers and potential clients, you will get comments and questions to your blog postings, be sure to respond to these in a complete and polite way, be informative and offer help, these tips will help you gain a interactive platform that people will enjoy returning to and contributing to. If you want to encourage this, be sure to make it easy for your readers to comment on your posting, For example I have a easy form at the bottom of all my posts, that you can respond to. (Shameless Request: feel free!!)
4.Not Listening To your Readers
Not sure what kind of content appeals to your audience the most? It's not a mystery: Your blog analytics can provide valuable insight into what types of posts are resonating with readers.
By failing to pay attention to analytics, you're ignoring valuable information that can take your blog to the next level. Continually track the responses to each blog post. Tinker with different topics, titles and types of posts. Which posts generate the most activity (comments, shares, likes)? Increase the frequency of the most popular.

How To Get Traffic From Reddit Without Getting Blacklisted!
How To Get Traffic From Reddit Without Getting Blacklisted!
|This is icon for social networking website. This is part of Open Icon Library's webpage icon package. (Photo credit: Wikipedia)
If you're interested in doing wonders for your brand, or blog, you should already have accounts on most of the popular social Sharing sites.
If you're going to Reddit, be warned that you should never spam your own posts, and expect to get a positive reaction, and you will defiantly get little to no interests shown in your topics.
The Reddit community frowns greatly on people who only submit their own content, they also hate anyone that does what they believe is "gaming the system" by using Reddit simply to get visitors to your blog.
There are ways around these strict guidelines, a way you can gain large numbers of users to your blog, but you need to be extremely careful when doing these things.
In this post I will go over some of the key things that are important to keep in mind when promoting your own blog posts.
1. Understanding Reddit
If you are not familiar with the Reddit Community, you need understand how it all works. Basically Reddit allows its users to submit anything they want in the form of a link, be it Webpages, Pictures, or whatever.
Most Redditors share the same or like opinions on a lot of the topics posted to the community, Reddit actually calls the large part of its user base 'The Hive-mind because they tend to share similar opinions.
The users on Reddit generally frown upon submitting your own site, so take caution when making mention that the content is your own in your title.
Its best just to let people assume whatever they want about who created the content; your just need to make the title enticing to click on and genuinely interesting.
Which leads us to…
|Reddit founder Alexis Ohanian with the Reddit Alien (Photo credit: Anirudh Koul)
2. Post the article with an interesting title & picture
When you post your article, remember that in most cases, you only have the topic line of your posting to grab someone's attention, and get them to click on your link, think about asking a question in your topic, this may get some to click, they may be interested in posting a response to something you have asked.
Try and pick topics that are controversial, people like to ask questions and debate, they like to be involved in the topic, so this will help you get comments posted back as well as people forwarding your posting to friends and family.
Here are some of the posting Ideas I think do best on Reddit:
§ Personal stories and personal challenge stories, people facing incredible odds seem to be the most popular
§ Educational sites do well and sites that deal with science, or technology
§ Photography is a big one, people love looking at pictures also art and comics
§ Politics & Religion grab a lot of readers.
§ Video games
§ Technology, Specifically Computers and Programming
§ Science & History
§ Music
§ Marijuana
§ Food & Fitness
These are typically the subjects with the most popular subreddits.
3. Don't post in the wrong subreddit!
A subreddit (referred to simply as a ' Reddit') is the way Reddit organizes its content.
If you choose a subreddit that is overcrowded your article may get lost in all of the other postings, for example positing anything but an image in the images subreddit would be pointless as your posting would just be looked over.
But if your posting showcases some great new food recipe, posting in the r/Food subreddit would bring in users that are interested in Food rather than posting your post in the r/pics because the cheese cake looks great, you'll get more responses from r/Food for the simple reason that its less crowded than r/pics
To check how many people have added the Reddit to their page, open a different tab, and after the Reddit address, type in /r/Reddit-name.To the right, you are going to see the number of people who have the Reddit on their front page.
The other reason for submitting to niche subreddit and not the big ones is that you can make the top post more easily in these smaller subreddit. So, if you make it to the top of r/Joomla with your post, that is still 3000+ subscribers to the Joomla subreddit that could potentially click through (just make sure your post is excellent, and has to do with Joomla specifically!)
4. Be an active contributing member
|Reddit Eats (Photo credit: GaryRHess)
As with any online community, you need to be a active contributor to the site, you cannot expect for gain respect from other user if when they look at your posting history all they see is a bunch of spam for your website, as with anything you need to spend time cultivating and caring for your reputation.
A handful of great and informative postings will go a lot farther for you then just spamming your blog or site, and believe me the community on Reddit knows the difference anc can spot a spammer a mile away.
In Conclusion: is Reddit worth it?
Reddit is certainly a lot tougher than Digg, if you want to be successful on reddit make sure your niche is unique and through, present your postings in a professional manner.
Keep in mind when posting to Reddit, you are dealing with one of the hardest crowds on the internet, expect to see a few nasty comments, and quite possibly you might fail the first couple times, just follow the advice I have given you here, and you many land on the front page of a bigger subreddit, when that happens you will never question the potential of Reddit, your site will see thousands and thousands of visitors from one posting.

Facebook Cuts Off Friend-Finding Access to Vine, Twitter's New Video App
Facebook Cuts Off Friend-Finding Access to Vine, Twitter's New Video App
Don't go and try to add your Facebook friends to your new VINE app, expecting to be able to share your videos, Facebook has shut off the API hose to Vine, is this because of Twitters relationship with Facebook?
That was fast!
Within hours of Twitter launching its Vine video-sharing application on Thursday, Facebook has cut off access to Vine's "find people" feature, which
lets used to let Vine users find their Facebook friends using the Vine application.
What does that mean? It's basically an annoyance, a hindrance on an easy way to connect with all your existing friends using the service. It would have been a good way to jump into a new product, rather than manually trying to find all of your friends using the app.
No comment from Twitter beyond the error message we're seeing pop up when we try to use the Facebook friend finding feature in the app, and no immediate response from Facebook as of yet.
But the cutoff isn't exactly surprising, given Instagram recently snipping Twitter cards integration, and Twitter cutting off access to Instagram's "Find your Friends" feature. Welcome to the new, competitive landscape of social tech companies.
The loser in all of this? Sorry, user, but it's you.

According to the Smithsonian, tattoos have been used by human beings for thousands of years. The earliest-known examples come from Ancient Egyptian mummies that date back to 2000 B.C., but with the discovery of tattoos on the Iceman, it is clear that tattoos were around even before the Egyptians.
The tattoo is a body modification that requires poking bits of ink into the dermis layer of the skin, changing the pigment of the skin. Tattoos existed in cultures in South America around 6000 B.C. Certain tools discovered by archaeologists in Peru may actually be tattoo tools used 60,000 years ago. The Ainu people in Japan, along with some Austro-Asiatic cultures, also used tattoos on their faces and bodies.
The role of tattoos in ancient Egypt is uncertain. However, some archaeologists believe that tattoos represented status or occupation, especially in women. Some women may have received a tattoo because they were of dubious status or had a sexually transmitted disease. Others believe that the tattoos served as a permanent amulet in a time where birth and pregnancy were very difficult. The amulets may have calmed the woman as she believed they would protect her and her baby from disease or death.

The decoration of the temple of Amun
Daniel von Recklinghausen
This chapter provides a short overview of the soubassement (dado) of the temple of Amun at Naukratis decorated during the reign of Ptolemy I. Few fragments are known today and represent the only extant material remains from a building in this sanctuary. The decoration is executed to a high standard. A comparison with soubasssements of Upper Egyptian temples of the Graeco-Roman period makes a setting on the exterior walls of the naos building probable. Furthermore, there are striking textual parallels between the Naukratis soubassements and some soubassements in the Upper Egyptian temples, namely Edfu, which are of a much later date. This phenomenon may indicate the use of an identical source or even a pattern book.

The Practice of Love in the Digital Age
HAVING gained the theoretical knowledge of the craft of loving, one has to encounter even more crucial stage, which is to put all the theoretical knowledge into practice.
Practice is synonymous to expression. There is no soul on earth, who has not experienced the love vibes in a lifetime, be it a child, a grown-up or even a man waiting for death angel.
The real asset lies in the execution and not restricting emotions to your own self. Never shy away from expressing the emotion as profound as love, else it will be buried deep and down in your heart and start engulfing your soul only to end up leaving you empty handed.
Understand the Practice of Love in the 21th Century:

Suzie was a Norwegian Elkhound who was lucky enough to be found by the dog-loving couple Robin and Lucila on the property that was to become Suzie's Farm. Suzie quickly adapted to life with Robin and Lucila and became the mascot for their new organic farm. Although Suzie has passed on, you can find her on our logo, where she stands, in canine grace, guarding the farm and reminding us to be present and available when opportunities present themselves. When the breeze blows up from the river and rustles through the acacia trees, we know that the spirit of Suzie is near and guiding us. We hope you feel it too.
Good to know: Although Suzie's Farm does not currently employ anyone named Suzie, all women and men employed by Suzie's Farm will respond to shouts of "Hey, Suzie!" while out in the world.

Try this experiment.
For the next month, keep a time diary for yourself. Keep a pocket notebook and, throughout the day, take notes on how you've been spending your time. Don't try to be "perfect" about how you spend your time – just be normal about it. You're recording this information for your own purposes.
Once you have a month or so worth of data, come up with some sensible groups for how you spend your time. Hygiene might be one. Cooking might be another. You might have a handful of categories for your hobbies and interests, like watching television. Spending time with friends or family might be another such category, as might surfing the web.
Once you have these groups, add up all of the time you spent during that month doing something within that group. For example, during the month I did this, I found that I spent forty seven hours reading for personal pleasure and enrichment.
Once you have that, compare it to your actual spending throughout a given month. Are there any areas where you're spending a lot of money but not spending much time?
Quite often, those areas where you're spending a lot of money but not spending much time are the very areas that most need trimming.
For me, those areas have included technology items and sports equipment. I don't play enough golf to really warrant the purchase of more golf clubs, and I often don't use the gadgets I've bought nearly enough to warrant the purchase price.
The flip side of that coin is also interesting – the areas where you spend a lot of time without spending a lot of money.
In my own life, reading and cooking are two areas where I invest a lot of time but typically don't spend significant money. I don't spend a lot of money on reading materials, nor do I invest significant money into cooking supplies, either (aside from perhaps being a bit picky about ingredients for some meals) – in fact, I often cook things that wind up costing less than a prepackaged option.
Here's the kicker, though. Quite often, areas of your life where you spend a lot of time without spending a lot of money are the areas that truly bring you the most enjoyment because you don't require a constant influx of new things to be able to enjoy yourself.
I argue that those are the areas of your life that you should accentuate, while learning to let go of the areas that offer much less bang for the buck.
What does that mean for me? Instead of lusting for gadgets, I should instead focus on cooking great meals for my family. Instead of looking at golf clubs, I should devote more time to reading.
This carries through to the other expenses and choices in my life. When I look at the websites I read regularly, it doesn't take much to de-subscribe from Gizmodo and subscribe to 101 Cookbooks. When I go shopping, I can skip by the Apple store and visit the local organic greengrocer. Instead of spending the weekend dropping a C-note at the golf course, I can just join a book club instead (and get my outdoors fix by going on a hike).
The end result? I slowly start focusing more on and spending more time on the things that are truly important to me that also happen to not cost all that much. Meanwhile, the costly things that I don't really care about that much begin to slowly fade away.

Gynecologiccancer occurs in the female reproductive system. This cancer is of various types including:fallopian tubes, cervix, ovary, uterus, vagina, and vulva. Risk factors for this form of cancer are growing day by day.

Gynecologic sparing surgery: This operation is performed to remove only the cancer but not the whole of the reproductive system. So, this is called gynecological sparing surgery. The physician makes a small incision to know whether the cells have entered the lymphatic system. After this treatment the patient is undergoing radiation therapy to kill any remaining cancer cells.
Mastectomy: It is in this process removes all the tumor along with lymph nodes. After this process operation patient undergoes radiation therapy to completely destroy cancer cells.
Chemotherapy: This treatment is given in the early stages of tumors. Chemotherapy is one of the methods of treatment used to destroy cancer cells, whereby the drugs are used.

"The field is Open to Talent" is the translated motto of the University of Tasmania. Yesterday we had Jaron's FINAL graduation ever...please no more study! Graduation ceremonies are soooo long and boring, especially on a hot day with no air conditioning. But it was the icing on the cake and feels like it is all really over now.
Some random lady took a few family photos for us...and my eyes were shut in all of them!

Skin Sparing Mastectomy
Last Reviewed: February 27, 2005
Dear OncoLink "Ask The Experts,"
What is your opinion of skin sparing mastectomy? Is there any sensation left?
Don LaRossa, MD, Professor of Surgery at the University of Pennsylvania Medical School, responds:
Skin sparing mastectomy is excellent for many patients who are suitable candidates. Your surgeon can review the options with you to determine whether you would be a suitable candidate. It would not spare the nipple and areola and hence, sensation would be lost. Indeed, the mastectomy itself usually results in significant alterations in sensation.
