I am NOT a Hallelujah Vegan...and You Shouldn't Be, Either
I've been writing in this blog off and on for a while now. I don't get a lot of comments, but I seem to get some page views pretty frequently--from all over the world, actually--and that keeps me motivated. Today, I couldn't resist the temptation, and I Google'd my own blog.
I was horrified at what I found. Apparently, there is a whole group of people who call themselves "Hallelujah Vegans" and follow a diet they've called "The Genesis 1:29 Diet." I swear on every ounce of integrity in my body that I never heard of these folks before today.
These so-called hallelujah vegans are following a restrictive diet based on a book written by a guy named Gordon Tessler entitled, The Genesis Diet. There's no specific description of the eating plan or any nutritional science that backs up whatever it is that Tessler convinced these people to do. All you see on the Amazon page is a handful of glowing and vague reviews proclaiming Tessler's prescience in "diagnosing" health problems. Diagnosing? Seriously? He's not an M.D. He's a PhD, and good luck finding out what he is actually a doctor of...because I couldn't.
This man is scary. Everything I found about him paints the picture of a total sheister charleton type who goes around getting people all excited about buying his book by calling it "biblical." He's got his various books and DVD's for sale in a number of questionable-looking places. It's a very Scientology-sounding type of quackery with "body scans" and "healing rooms." I mean, that's so straight-up Friend of Xenu that I can't believe there are people who went for it. Tessler is described in multiple places as an "expert" in nutrition and "biblical health." Huh? What does that even mean?
Every online diet review you find for the Genesis Diet is pretty much the same: no specific information about the diet because they couldn't find any...but it's not recommended because it's too low in calories, too high in carbs, and too low in protein (which begs the question, "how do they know all that if they don't know what's in the diet plan?"). Sigh.
There are sites online devoted to trashing veganism because of the frightening results some people had from following Tessler's diet. One of them is called "Losing Your Mind to the Genesis Diet," and they drone on and on for pages and pages about how meat and cheese are the only way to get quality protein (because the Genesis Diet frowns upon beans and legumes and they were idiotic enough to eat that way until their gums started to bleed...nice!). Apparently, the authors of this anti-veg site, which I will not dignify with a link, are either lying to cover up a political agenda against veganism or they were on a pseudo-starvation diet that some nut job convinced them was scriptural...because they were stupid.
I'm devastated to think I might be associated with this guy or his book or the diet or any of this drama because of the name I chose for my blog. I'm angry and crestfallen to find that when someone Googles my blog, the entries they will see on top of my link are related to all this drama and nonsense.
At first, I thought I should change the name of my blog...but I'm not going to do that. I picked it because I felt inspired by reading Genesis 1:29...for myself. All this other tomfoolery has nothing to do with my family or our little project. I have loved the title I chose here and been proud of it, so I don't think I should have to give it up. But going forward, let me just get a few things straight:
1.) Nothing in Genesis 1:29 suggests you should go hungry or that you should neglect staples of nutrition. In fact, the opposite is true. Genesis 1:29 describes bountiful variety in God's gift of all plant life for our use and consumption. It certainly doesn't say you shouldn't eat chickpeas or peanuts...for God's sake!!
2.) Veganism is not a diet. It's a commitment to eating healthfully and plentifully without harming anything in the process. It's about standing up for moral integrity against a corrupt system of "food" production in the developed world which has strayed from basic humanity and the laws of nature.
3.) You do not need animal protein to be healthy, but you do need protein. Eat beans and legumes. Eat nuts. Eat whole grains. Make sure you know where your protein comes from...and eat some every day.
4.)You don't need dairy calcium to be healthy (in fact, a lot of research indicates that dairy consumption hurts calcium absorption more than it helps), but you do need calcium. Eat lots of leafy greens and cruciferous vegetables. Drink calcium-enriched non-dairy milks (like soy milk or rice milk). Know where your nutrients come from, and eat them.
5.) Educate yourself about vitamins B12 and D, and make sure you meet your body's needs for them. It's not hard and nothing has to die in a factory farm for you to do it.
6.) Serving God through veganism is about stewardship. It's not about penance or deprivation or some mystical and rigid adherence to the terminology in any particular Bible verse.
God didn't make the Bible difficult to understand. He didn't hide the truth from you and then show it to "Doctor" Tessler so he could sell it to you. You don't need to buy anything or consult moon phases, runes, or experts in "biblical health" to understand nutrition. If you are hungry...eat. Eat well. Eat a variety of fruits, vegetables, grains, nuts, fats, and colors...and eat calories. You need them. Listen to Colleen Patrick-Goudreau...not Gordon Tessler. Her podcast is free, and she is an acknowledged, non-crazy expert in vegan nutrition.
So. If you see someone referring to themselves as a hallelujah vegan or to their "diet" as the Genesis 1:29 Diet, know that they have no relationship, connection, or affiliation with me...and then RUN the other way as fast as you can.

Dear Mrs. Nix,ReplyDelete
Your opening statement "I'm seriously peeved about this one, and I'm breaking my rule about blogging while angry for it. I'm white-hot pissed right now" indicates to me that you do not understand the translation of Genesis 1:29 or the meaning. Genesis 1:29 simply says that fruits and vegetables come highly recommended. NOWHERE in this verse does it say that they are the only food that one can eat to the exclusion of all edible things on the planet unless you have a translation from Aramaic no one else has.
I'm certainly not in this to argue Biblical translation. The verse is clear in its meaning to me and many others. Many Biblical scholars have taken God's reluctant instruction to Noah to consume meat after the flood as confirmation that all people on earth prior to Noah were NOT given permission to eat animal products.ReplyDelete
I read it that way, too.
Your hostility is noted. The anger I was writing about had nothing to do with my reading of Genesis 1:29. It has only to do with the "Genesis Diet," which is a restrictive and - apparently - nutritionally incomplete diet from a man who makes money off of gullible Christians.

New '13 Reasons Why' Star Anne Winters Says Season 2 Will Tackle Gray Areas of Society
Anne Winters is going to be one of the new faces you'll see on Netflix's 13 Reasons Why.
The actress will play cheerleader Chloe on the series that premieres next year.
Speaking with Flare magazine, Anne opened up about what the new season will be all about, after Netflix shared a clue on Twitter recently.
"It's such an interesting topic because, I mean, the people [in the show] who are doing wrong maybe don't even understand that it is wrong, and the people that are going through it are thinking, Is this wrong?" she says.
Anne continues, "This season will explore a little of those grey areas�it's not as black and white as last season�so that when people raise the question of, 'Well wasn't it her fault that she did this or that?' this season shows a different take on it. You'll have a lot more answers this season on why people are doing what they're doing."
She also opens about how the show doesn't shy away from topics of sexual assault and suicide.
"They're very controversial topics. What I love about the show is that they're so real with it, and they're not playing any games," she shares. "They're telling some real stories and these things happen to people."
"I think if it's important to show, show it. I heard that [some] people were banning the show. I can kind of see that a little bit because it is a little bit graphic, but at the same time, it shows what really happens. If you're just avoiding the problem, then you're avoiding the problem."

We hosted our second annual Cousin's Camp this past weekend and a great time was had by all!
I mentioned in my last post that this whole thing was my Mama's idea and she really was the brains of the operation. She worked tirelessly on planning and preparation; delegating tasks, gathering supplies, writing lists and all those other things you Type A folks do. If she was the brains, I was the brawn! I got to make sure I had a clean house, plenty of toilet paper, a loaded first aid kit (my children had the only injuries this weekend, I think), and willing hands! An army of the family's grown-ups converged on our house Friday morning and got the children ready for the day.
We did fun and amazing things like dyeing t-shirts with indigo (the stuff they use to dye blue jeans).
|My Mama "Cousin Becky" with a camper.
|Just out of the indigo dye bath!
We played around all weekend with stilts that "Aunt Brenda" (she got to be an aunt because she is actually the only person who attended who wasn't at all related) brought.
|"Aunt Brenda" and Theo
|Eden on stilts
|Cousin Kevin on stilts!
|Even my 90 year old Mema took a turn on the stilts!

|Our tent and our home.
|Misty Saturday morning.
We had breakfast before the others began to arrive. It was nice to have a few moments to sit and relax before the action began again.
We spent the day Saturday preparing for Saturday afternoon's feast. The children made brunswick stew, rolls, and ice cream and each family brought a side dish to share.

VIDEO: Fierce blazes hit zionists in occupied territories, zionist PM Blames Palestinians for Alleged Arson Attacks
People in "israel's 3rd largest city" of Haifa returned to their scorched and damaged homes on Friday after a fire spread across the region.
Officials said firefighters had managed to extinguish the blaze by Friday. Tens of thousands of Israelis fled homes and spent the night in public shelters.
Hundreds of homes have been damaged in the blaze.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu blamed Palestinian incitement for fuelling the alleged arson attacks.
The fires began three days ago at the Neve Shalom community near Jerusalem where Israelis and Arabs live there.
Later, blazes erupted in the northern Israeli area of Zichron Yaakov and elsewhere near Jerusalem before the largest ones spread across.

A friend of mine, Lee Fairbanks, from Fairbanks & Cannon Management & Consulting sent me this email.
The G20 wants to reduce their deficits by 50% in 3 years - how will they do that? Raise taxes and cut services. That affects all of us - HST on gasoline anyone? Where does the stimulus money come from? Taxes - which we all provide one way or another. Time to face the facts.
Are we in a recession or a depression? Listen to Wall Street expert Bill Bonner explain why stimulus spending will not save our economy because it supports businesses that should be allowed to fail in a free economy: Bill Bonner: Son of StimulusOr just read the newspaper every day: Cities and States in the US going bankrupt; company and government pension underfunded with no way to recover. "Guaranteed" pensions being cut. Most of those pensions rely on never ending stock market growth. With so much stimulus money pumped into the Global economy we should expect that markets will have risen back to their pre-crash levels. Consider these stats from Jan. 2010 to July 2010:Dow Jones (US) up just 0.14% (virtually flat)Dow Jones (Europe) down 12.4%Dow Jones (Asian) down 4%Dow Jones (Global) down 9.2%In fact - The 10-year return on the Dow Jones and the TSE index is virtually 0% - as in zero, so any money invested there on 2000 has earned no growth in the past 10 years. The TSE is down 7% this quarter - where is your RRSP and your RESP invested?Truth is, today the only wealth you can count on is earned income - after taxes. And with taxes going up and services going down, for most people that spells one thing: tough times ahead.
Lee had asked me where I see future business opportunities. In response to our conversation Lee wrote.
Bill's facts are undeniable and they point to a future for Canadian Baby Boomers without the current level of "free" health care as they age. Provincial forecasts say that 70% of all tax spending would have to go to health care if the current levels are to be maintained. This is an ongoing increase, rising from 30% in 1981, to 45% in 2004.
Is there a solution?
Several things come to mind:
1. Stay healthy longer.
2. Make sure you have enough money to buy your own health care when you need it.
3. Diversify your income offshore to capitalize on growth markets with younger populations. (Bill's suggestion).
Bill has an excellent article that uses the Japanese experience (Japan is the first developed nation to face this crisis) to explain where Canada is in this cycle. - scroll past the headlines to read the article. Look closely at the charts, they are very revealing.
It appears that the IMF numbers show the same opportunities and challenges that Lee and I have identified. The developed nations of the world are collapsing under the weight of aging populations and the legacy, pension and healthcare costs that come with a greying population.
Emerging Economies
The emerging economies are poised to produce some stellar growth numbers in 2010 and beyond. You can see from the chart above the areas that are traditional growth drivers benefiting the emerging markets. These can be found in exports, industrial production and retail.
Brazil - 7.1%
China - 10.5%
India - 9.4%
Mexico - 4.5%
Many of these countries are on track for stellar growth. Mexico grew by almost 7% in the last quarter. Crecerá economía mexicana entre 6 y 7% en segundo trimestre: Santander
These numbers compare to Canada with an anticipated growth of 3.5% this year and 2.8% next year. Projections for Europe are dismal at only 1% growth.

Miles Teller & Josh Brolin set to star in firefighter actioner No Exit
While cop flicks are a dime a dozen, it's been a while since we've had a really good movie about firefighters, but hopefully that'll change with NO EXIT. Variety is reporting that Miles Teller and Josh Brolin have signed to star in the planned film, which will tell "the true story of the Granite Mountain Hotshots, a group of firefighters that faced one of the deadliest wildfires in history in order to save an Arizona town, resulting in the tragic death of 19 crew members."
OBLVION and TRON: LEGACY director Joseph Kosinski is helming the actioner, and he'll be directing from a script by BLACK HAWK DOWN penner Ken Nolan. A production start date hasn't been set yet, and there's also no word on if this will Kosinski's (who has been attached to a number of projects since the release of OBLVION) next feature directorial effort. Who would you like to see star alongside Teller and Brolin in NO EXIT?
Brolin just recently finished shooting for the Jody Hill-directed comedy THE LEGACY OF A WHITETAIL DEER HUNTER, which is due out on December 25, 2017, while Teller can be seen next on the big screen in THE DIVERGENT SERIES: ALLEGIANT on March 18, 2016.

I cooked my own fishes
Before I start my story, I would like to warn all hobbyist against buying 2nd hand / used tank heaters. Becos of this, all fishes in my 4ft tank were wiped out.
Live stocks :
- 3 x 18" SDF full cross XB
- 1 x 14" 24/7 Stable Clean 3bar IT
Here it goes:
Recently I bought two 300W tank heaters to standby for my tank. Never used heaters in my entire time of fish keeping. Have always read in forum bout setting heaters to 30 or 32 degrees together with medication will heal fishes with certain sickness effectively. Therefore decided to buy n standby. Soon after, due to some coincident, I have traded for n taken over a piece of very nice 3bar clean IT with a bro. However this IT has swollen eyes on one side fully clouded. Started with only mild salt n yellow powder treatment, the improvement is not significant after 1 week. I decided to try the heater together with epson salt. This morning, I put in the heater, set to 30degrees, put in 500g of Petfran Epsom salt n left home for work. When I reached home, I noticed all my fishes inside were floating lifelessly. First thing that came to my mind was to feel the tank. As to my expectation, the tank felt hot. I quickly climb over n put my hand into the water. Indeed the water was hot. This concludes tat the heater was spoilt n heats up to a temperature that eventually killed my fishes.
I cooked my own fishes for the first time!!!
Look at how they are swimming before it all happens.

Some believe the Duesenberg – the most extravagant pre-World War II American car of all – gave rise to an expression denoting the best, the most over-the-top, the supreme.
Yep, "It's a doozy!"
The dooziest Duesenberg of all was the Model J, a luxury car powered by a 7-litre straight eight fitted with dual overhead camshafts and four valves per cylinder.
The top speed was 119 mph (192 km/h), almost unprecedented at the time for anything other than a racing car.
Later the J would be fitted with a supercharger (acquiring the nickname "SJ"), lifting the top speed to over 225 km/h.
There was just one small problem …
The Model J was first seen at the end of 1928. If you know your history, that wasn't the best time to come up with a car that cost $8500 as a bare chassis and nearly $20,000 as a complete car (depending on the body chosen).
Heck, a complete Model A Ford roadster was just $385.
It was way back in 1913 that German-born brothers Frederick and August Duesenberg set up shop in Iowa to build sports and racing cars.
Duesenbergs achieved four victories in the Indy 500, even a French GP victory in 1921.
Luxurious and highly acclaimed road cars followed. Alas, the brothers were brilliant engineers but also graduates of the Nathan Tinkler Institute of Business.
In 1926 the perennially loss-making company – which had moved to Indianapolis – was bought by E.L. Cord, of Auburn and Cord cars fame.
Cord sent August to the shed to play with racing cars and told Frederick to produce the world's most lavish and luxurious automobile.
This was done with the complete lack of cost control for which Duesenberg was famous. The Model J was probably the best US car of the era and certainly the most expensive.
But only about 200 examples were delivered before the 1920s' economic bubble burst. It was going to be a very hard sell thereafter.
Frederick died soon after crashing an SJ convertible in 1932. August took over as head engineer but development funds were tight.
After the sharemarket collapse, captains of industry generally weren't willing to write cheques.
At least Hollywood boomed in the depression. Many of its stars wouldn't be seen behind the wheel of anything other than a Duesenberg.
Thank goodness too that prohibition was still in force. That provided a whole other market.
In 2013 RM Auctions offered a 1931 model that could have come straight out of Boardwalk Empire. It was owned by New York underworld identity William Collins for exactly one day before his death (cause of, not reported).
At that point it passed on to legendary Philadelphia bootlegger Mickey Duffy, who was gunned down in Atlantic City a few months later.
Duffy's Model J was taken over by his business partner Owney Madden, also a renowned gangster and liquor runner, as well as being the owner of Harlem's Cotton Club – and a prolific murderer.
Madden bucked the general trend of his profession by living into old age, but the same could not be said for the car company.
By 1937 the supercharged model was producing a reputed 298 kW, but the only thing missing were buyers.
Cord's car empire was collapsing and Duesenberg production stopped that year, after a mere 481 examples of the J (and derivatives) had been built in nine years.
There were Duesenberg revival attempts. They went nowhere.
The highest auction price for a Model J is $US10.34 million ($13.4 million), achieved in 2011, a record for any American car.
That example had been the property of George Whittell Jr, a wealthy playboy who also owned a pet lion.

CHICAGO (CBS.MW) -Airline stocks came under pressure Thursday following dramatically revised loss estimates from a top Wall Street analyst.
In a morning note to investors, Glenn Engel of Goldman Sachs predicted that the industry could post total losses of $3.4 billion this year, with seven of nine big carriers finishing 2001 in the red.
Earlier this year, Engel had estimated airline losses to total $2.5 billion. However, "airline revenues remain depressed, with no evidence yet that record year-over-year declines are diminishing as we had expected."
"Business still stinks," Engel continued, as "domestic passenger revenues continue to decline at a double digit pace. Although revenue trends are not deteriorating further, the past few months represent the steepest extended period of decline ever."
The widening losses will make this the "worst year since 1992," Engel said.
For the third quarter, Engel expects the airlines to record pretax losses of $700 million, as opposed to a year-ago profit of $1.7 billion.
With the exception of Continental CAL, -0.43% and the remarkably consistent Southwest LUV, +1.63% all major carriers are expected to post per-share loses on the year ranging from the $1 for Alaska Air ALK, -0.74% to a whopping $22.35 for No. 2 carrier, United UAL, +0.44%
Top gun AMR AMR, -4.15% is in line to lose $2.75 per share in 2001, Delta DAL, +1.52% faces a loss of $3.35; and Northwest NWAC $2.80.
By the end of the session, AMR had fallen 2.6 percent to $31.15; UAL was off 2.9 percent to $31.75; and Delta lost 2.7 percent to $37.89. Meanwhile, Continental gave up 1.9 percent to $42.35; Alaska was off 2.3 percent to $31.58 and America West AWA, -1.70% bled out 2.1 percent to $9.15.
USAir U, +0.42% a Wall Street whipping boy ever since its failed merger with United, gave up 1.2 percent to close at 12.47 after touching a 52-week low of $12.11 earlier.
Even Southwest had an off day as it edged down 3 cents to $17.75. Only Northwest managed to eke out a gain as it climbed a nickel to close at $20.15.
Still, investors need find no terror in the skies. Engel is keeping his 2002 estimates "largely intact" and "we are aggressive buyers of airline stocks," with top picks including AMR, Continental and Delta.
Valuations are "much more attractive" than they were during the last recession and "airlines have been much better controlling capacity and non-labor costs." In fact, he believes that "if either business travel trends or fuel prices had been comparable to the early 1990s, we believe airlines would have been able to post modest profits" this year.
"Although the long-term fundamentals of the airline business are better than a decade ago, valuation is much less expensive than the early 1990s," and if airline multiples were comparable to levels in the last recession, "share prices would likely be 20 percent to 30 percent higher," Engel concluded.

Baker Tracy Gribbon combined her love of healthy living and 25 years of experience in the restaurant business to create an artisan cracker company called Georgia Sourdough Co. Each sourdough cracker is made from scratch with natural and organic ingredients from local family farmers in Georgia.
I am creating a company that makes healthy modern day snacks from ancient practices and organic ingredients.
~Tracy Gribbon
Every batch of Georgia Sourdough crackers is made with quality ingredients that are blended by hand. They are made fresh without the use of preservatives, sugars, and stabilizers. The sourdough starter is made with yeast and lactobacillus that break down gluten. This process makes the crackers easier to digest.
We enjoyed eating them right out of the bags, but you can also pair them with your favorite dip, hummus, cheese, or soup. They are crisp and very flavorful. Each of the flavors we tried had a nice texture. I also liked that the crackers weren't oily and did not have an odd aftertaste.
Every cracker is made from dough that's been rolled by hand, baked, and then sliced into unique crackers. I love the ripple edges on the crackers.
My favorite was the Everything Cracker that was packed with poppy seeds, sesame seeds, organic onion, organic garlic, and sea salt. A serving of 8 crackers has 63mg of potassium.
The cheese crackers have cheddar, Parmesan, Gruyere, and Asadero cheeses. Real cheese instead of artificial dyes and flavors!
You can purchase Georgia Sourdough crackers in several locations throughout Georgia or online.
Learn more about Georgia Sourdough Co. by visiting their website or social media pages on Facebook and Instagram.
Our Virginia Home received a product from Georgia Sourdough Co. for the purpose of a review. However, only our honest opinions were expressed.

The first monday of the month is quiz night at the local pub - 13 teams turned up - the quizmaster must be pleased with the turnout. Sadly for our team made up of "oldies" we find the film, pop music and TV questions beyond us. In our young day there was no TV - that shows how old we are - our team agreed that "ancient history" questions would suit us fine! We remind ourselves that we must try and win the booby prize - but we fail there as well. On one occasion we would have won the booby prize but I cheated and at half time asked a young innocent bystander who was enjoying a quiet drink at the bar (not generally quiet in our pub during the quiz) to fill in some of the pop music questions. Serve me right as we missed out coming last and would have won highlighter pens!
We all enjoy ourselves thoroughly and have a really good laugh - quizmaster, you better have some really good booby prizes next month - we really will try very hard to come last!

We continue to demonstrate the additional ROI that can be realized by choosing SaaS-based IT service management (ITSM) over an on-premise system. In prior posts, we discussed lower licensing fees, reduced infrastructure requirements, and faster, more economical implementations.
Today, we'll cover how greater ITSM ROI can be achieved through reduced need for external consulting resources.
Legacy ITSM = Complex, Costly Upgrades
Most on-premise ITSM tools are quite difficult to maintain and upgrade. In fact, in many cases, moving to a newer version of the software can be just as complicated and labor-intensive as the initial deployment itself, because sophisticated reconfigurations are usually required. As a result, companies often need to hire expensive outside consultants to assist. In a typical year, these experts can charge fees that are as high as 20 percent of the total license costs.
So, a company that makes an initial investment of $86,000 in an on-premise IT service desk will likely spend an additional $17,200 in ongoing administration each year, beginning in year two. That number is sure to drive total cost of ownership way, way up, and make ITSM ROI much harder to reach.
Upgrading SaaS ITSM is Hassle and Cost-Free!
What makes SaaS ITSM ROI higher in this area? With a SaaS IT service desk, all ongoing maintenance and upgrades are performed by skilled and knowledgeable staff at the vendor's own state-of-the-art data centers. All administration and enhancements are non-disruptive, and included in the price of the service. So, there are never any added fees – or effort required – for upgrades, new features and functionality, or support.
That means, in years two and three alone, a company who selected a SaaS IT service desk over an on-premise one will save an astonishing $34,400!
In our next – and final – SaaS ITSM ROI post, we'll highlight the savings that SaaS delivers through decreased internal staffing requirements.

Every so often, an idea hits that is just perfect for a business. With the internet developing a business based on an idea, it has never been easier. Continue reading in order to gain some valuable and insightful tips which can assist you with your endeavor.
Link your website in each signature section that is available to you. If you follow message boards, have that link near your signature with every post you make. Include the link in your email signature, so that people will see it whenever you send a message. This will spread word about your business far and wide, and it could have positive SEO consequences, too. The link should include some interesting text that prompts the viewer to visit your site.
If you are interested in having others link to your website, create a link that is readily available to them on your site. People who have a site that is related to your business in some way will often want to help out by using the add on their own site for their visitors to see.
Before being concerned about how to raise the search rank of a website, you must first build a well designed and compelling website. If you have a website, start out with this step. The better your website looks and functions, the less effort it takes to maintain.
Your website tags should accurately project the primary purpose of your site. Tags at the top of each page play a large role in the search engine formula, and are visible to your visitors, too. Having mismatched titles and information is one of the quickest ways to drive people away from your site.
Be mindful that your website tag is highly important and will be used to define your website. Tags affect your search engine rankings, and the main heading tag will be visible to potential visitors. Visitors may not be inclined to linger at your website if you include extraneous data, muddled messages or cluttered presentations.
Create a FAQ page to advertise products. Offer an answer to each question, and mention products you offer as a solution to the problem when it is appropriate. Write questions in a way that you can have the chance to mention the product when answering without making it seem like a product placement.
Knowing your competition can be very beneficial to your own strategies as you learn from their successes and mistakes. If you find that you are interested in their products, or see why their customers would be, then pay close attention to how you can utilize some of these strategies for your own purposes.
Learning about basic elements of good web page design will be time well spent. There are many online resources that can teach you about key aspects of web design such as HTML and cascading style sheets. Even if you can only spend a little bit of time on it each day you should.
A great way to get people to click on ads is to create image links that describe the items you're selling. If the text matches the rest of the article, you can include it inconspicuously. It will not have the appearance of an ad.
Email can be an effective business tool. Make sure these emails contain interesting information. You want your newsletter to appeal to a subscriber by offering reliable and interesting information; it should not have the appearance of spam. With a newsletter, you can remain in touch with a customer for quite some time, and make him or her feel welcome to return to your website.
Use AJAX and Flash sparingly. It may be aesthetically pleasing, but it will not add additional search engine results. If you want to use Flash or Java script, integrate these elements in your page and use strong keywords to describe this content.
Give your customers the opportunity to rate and review your products and encourage them to explain their opinions fully. Honest feedback can help customers feel more confident with you and your products.
Hard work beats luck any day of the week. Working hard creates its own luck, and it is common to all successful internet marketing ventures. It is very rare to stumble upon a successful business that moved their way into the spotlight because of pure luck. Did Wal-Mart or Coca Cola just get lucky? Not at all. They had a strong marketing strategy, and worked hard to implement it.
Any claim you make about products on your site should always be backed up with proof. Be believable in your claims and try to demonstrate the benefits of what you are promoting with a video, so that customers can see for themselves. This is the reason why you should try products before you sell them, if possible.
Be certain that the information you provide to customers when you promote your business is appropriate. When you have unique content and make it have some value to your customers, it is sure to be appreciated. You want to put new content on your website so that visitors can learn something new.
Always avoid spam. Although it can be cost efficient to spam sites with your information, it always ends up drawing negative feedback towards you site and it never ends well. By failing to include personal touch points in your advertisements, you are unlikely to make a connection with your potential customers.
You must determine what audience you want to reach; then you must figure out how to go about attracting that audience to your website. This gives you a good starting point when planning your content.
Create a website that is laid out well with highly visible links. The last thing you want on your website are hard to find links and lack of usability for your audience.
Seek partnerships with fellow online merchants so that you can put together joint offerings that you can sell at competitive prices. Doing so can increase the number of markets you connect with and lead to more sales. As an example, take online booking agents who negotiate lower rates for clients who purchase a hotel reservation, a plane ticket and a car rental at the same time. This is a great way to work with companies that are not your direct competitors.
The internet has made doing business an anonymous affair. As a small or independently owned company, this can be a particularly smart way to help build a more familiar and friendly relationship with customers who can go on to become loyal patrons.
To improve site traffic and thus increase sales utilize SEO content and offer unique, original content. Although it may seem easier to simply post the information offered by the manufacturer, this will not help your SEO efforts. When you are writing your own descriptions, focused on search engine optimization, you can outpace your competitors.
You should aim to approach other online businesses, and ask them to consider making packaged deals with you for products or services that would be more profitable by selling them at a discount. This is a great way to link different types of markets, therefore increasing sales volume. An example of this would be using an online book agent. They help to negotiate prices for people to make sure they get the best rates on things like airfare, hotels and car rentals. This is ideal for the businesses that have products linked in a complementary manner, rather than a rivalry.
Expanding the range of options you offer for payment can help increase your business. You could accept credit card, PayPal, bank drafts, etc.
Operating a blog can attract more traffic for your website. Make sure to keep you content new and exciting by posting often. People will visit more frequently if they know that there will be something new to read each time they visit.
A 500 error page that is kind to your users is an effective tool. Visitors will see this page when something goes haywire with your site's automated database code. A typical error page tells the viewer that the connection has simply timed out. Having a more specific message shows the customer that you are trying to give them as much information as possible while solving the issue with the website.
If you're trying to gain more views on your website, and do better in search engine results, you have to provide unique and original content. This is very important to retailers who are in industries that have heavy competition online. It is critical that your website stands out. Just simply making sure that you're the one writing your own content could be enough to separate yourself from those other guys. Add your own unique touches where applicable.
A press release might help you to increase traffic, and it is a fantastic way to market your brand. Informative press releases that are clear and concise can help establish what you are offering in a professional way. This is a very easy method to boost your business profile.
Producing online videos that include tags can help your online marketing campaign succeed. Also, make sure you always include a link to your site in the description area of the video. This can help attract new customers.
If you don't devote your full attention to all of your social media profiles it will be a detriment to your company. If you have a profile that does not have fresh content people will think it is spam.
Consider customizing your site for different global locations. Making your site available in different languages can be very savvy. Broadening your reader base like this can really expand the amount of traffic your site gets. If a customer can easily read the information on your site in their own language, chances are higher that they will buy from you.
While many people caution against mixing home life with work life, this may be a rare exception. That is because there is no high pressure, and it can almost be viewed as a type of lucrative hobby. Get your spouse involved and make it a team effort!
Establishing yourself as an authority in your field can gain a great deal of respect for your business. If you are the boss of your company, let people know! You can refer to yourself as the "President" or "CEO" of your company.
A simple Internet marketing tip for anyone is to allow your customers to pay for items at a wholesale price if they buy enough of them. Although you should still earn a profit when selling wholesale, doing so is an excellent way to sell more items.
Interview other people within your industry who can offer legitimate information to your customers. Always make them sign a waiver so you do not end up with legal issues when you publish. You can submit these interviews into real articles and then make submissions to E-zine directories. In this way, you can increase your credibility, your traffic and your sales.
You may want to offer your customer incentives to increase immediate sales. Some examples include free or discounted shipping, a free gift-wrapping service or a free item when you spend a specified amount of money on purchases. As an example, you could offer the first 150 customers ordering a specific product the free shipping incentive. Consumers like incentives to purchase, and offering good ones will encourage people to purchase your goods or services.
As you can see from the above article, the end goal for all businesses should be longevity. Your goal is to build a solid basis for your business so it will last and grow over the years. Every business must start small, and you can employ what you've just learned here to start growing your small business.
When customers refer others to your site, reward them. This way you will be able to potentially gain many more customers by encouraging existing purchasers to bring their friends to the website to earn free prizes or rewards. People love getting free stuff and using this as a referral tool will help generate a lot of extra business for you.

Words start to fall on a moonlight walk. 'Conscripted into separation' starts it all. I wonder what it means. I share the line with someone who gives it a thumbs up. I forget it as the day goes on. It returns. It gets a few more numbered lines. Its left. It goes moldy. I should have wrapped it in cling film and put it in a cake tin with a tea spoon full of alcohol but I didn't. And it rots some more. And I forget it. And then I see it. And having seen it I think I could just leave it. Leave it as it is. Consign it to the history of those rhymes that get thrown away / even cast out to a blog. But there's something in it. And I see it again and again. It is my shining symbol. And so I pay a testimony to my hair.
Way back
I became
Beyond legal
I was conscripted
Into a mode of separation
Ruled by
Parental Ruefulness
Toward Medical Advice
Supporting flaky ideology
Anxiously waving goodbye
A bond forever broken
I pull my fringe down
Over my eyes
To go inside
To hide
From times
I can't abide
Where I can't see
Where weakness shows
Where horror grows
Where the clock knows
What should be done now
And when its not
What then
I tug my hair
To hide again
Refuse to go there
Within the regime
A clock ticks
A hand flicks
The cross school
With no ticks
Yes there
A memory of humiliation
Friday is spam fritters
Thursday is the barbers bowl
I look to tug my hair
Avoid the chair
Avoid the sight
Of hair
Falling all around
The site
Where choice is not given
And I ask
The barber not to cut my hair
I choose to fight the system
To shun the uniform
To deny the values of country
The oaths of wolf pack
and scout troop
I read the papers
Survey the times
Look into the mirror
One last time and choose to grow my hair
But my hair refuses
My eye lashes
Eye Brows
Fall out
My chest hair
Won't grow
There is something holding me back
Holding me down
I stare round
And see a cross
A cross I break
And the rules
The regulation
Like a glass shatter
And all that matters
Is I find a way to grow my hair
But my hair won't grow
And I long so much for hair
For side burn, mustache and Beard
Shoulder length
Down the back hair
Tied in a tail
Resigned to a plait
And I go back home
But won't stay there
The first and final institution
The they who won't let me grow my hair
I won't go there
And I won't work
And I won't engage with what they say
The words they bark
The commands that cleave the air
For now I know just what it takes
For me to grow my hair

Published at Tuesday, August 07th 2018, 05:03:24 AM by Josie Michael. Air Compressor. Compression not only produces heat but squeezes water out of the air which ends up in the tank. Tanks can rust internally over time and if this is not controlled, the rusted air tank can eventually explode causing considerable damage and even death. That is why it is really important to evacuate the tank of water regularly. Most air compressors come equipped with a drain valve at the lowest point of the tank. If you dont want to spray water all over the floor under the unit, you may want to consider piping it from the valve to another place such as under the floor or into a drain. Piped water will flow uphill into a sink because it is being pushed out of the tank by compressed air.

It seems many investors' New Year's resolution is to load up on Google
Wall Street analysts and their fancy financial models are agreeing. Last week, Piper Jaffray's Safa Rashtchy put a $600 price target on the stock. Mark Stahlman of Caris & Co. says that the mighty GOOG can reach $2,000 a share, and that the company can reach $100 billion in sales.
There's no denying that Google is the king of search. And with so many companies rushing to advertise online, it's sitting pretty in an intensely attractive market. But in its hunger for new growth, Google is entering other areas rife with fierce competition -- and its plans for these markets appear somewhat underwhelming.
What new Google developments are investors getting excited about? Try video on the Internet. Yep, you can purchase videos, download them from your computer and watch them. Not quite overwhelmed by the sheer thrill of that announcement? There's also the new Google Pack, a free bundle of popular Google offerings like Google Toolbar and Google Talk, along with other companies' antivirus and video-playing software.
True, these initiatives should provide incremental revenues for Google, attract some new users, and help enhance the Google brand. But online video is still in its emerging stages, and it's likely to take several years to gain any critical mass. There's also plenty of competition in online video sales, which is likely to put pressure on margins. Is all this really worth billions more in additional market cap?
In my opinion, Google rival and Motley Fool Inside Value recommendation Microsoft
Microsoft also boasts the Xbox 360, which is experiencing Google-like growth patterns. This week, Microsoft announced an add-on drive that will let users play high-definition DVD discs on the console. Microsoft also announced a variety of other deals, including the Urge online music service with MTV and a deal with DirecTV to let viewers transfer content to PCs, mobile devices and Xboxes.
Yet despite all the activity, Microsoft's stock treads water. Yes, this is probably due to Microsoft's maturity as a company, but for a business of its size, it grows at a decent rate and generates huge amounts of cash flow. Big-cap companies like Microsoft have been mostly out of favor on Wall Street, but in light of its recent announcements, Microsoft certainly looks attractive. As for Google's stock, it started the week at $422.52 and ended the week at $465.66.
Investors are clamoring for anything Google, despite its underwhelming announcements. For investors who want to protect their portfolio, this might be a smart time to "just say no" to the search king, however tempting its stock.
Microsoft's Wall Street snubbing might be your chance to profit. Let Motley Fool Inside Value guide you to even more top-notch companies unfairly ignored by the market. Sign up today for a 30-day free trial.

So the rest of this week has seen a somewhat deflated bean. Not for any particular reason, rather a collection of small ones. I seem to get like this every now and then, you may have noticed it in some of my other posts. I have been completely and utterly bored at work. I am doing the same thing day after day after day. When I first got promoted, I was really excited about being on a more technical team and all the spreadsheet playing I'd get to do. While it is true that I am working with spreadsheets every day, for the last month, and probably the next one coming as well I have actually been doing the same thing every single day. Argh! I get a slight respite when someone comes to my desk and asks for some help with something, but 9 times out of 10 they want something that I've already written up how to do in the instructions I was asked to write for them, which they could find by scrolling to the document and reading a single paragraph detailing very clearly how to do it. I made the template for the document they are trying to use, and I included a helpful instruction sheet on basic troubleshooting with what could go wrong. Do they read it? No. Even their boss, the person that asked me to make the template and include the instruction sheet, he doesn't even read it! I get chirpy little emails from him asking if I could help so-and-so because the contents page just isn't working, no matter what he tries (read: nothing)! Grr. Now my work is building up because I'm getting back the items I've sent for checking, but can't complete them yet because I'm waiting on data I requested from another department back in March.
At home we have two types of workmen at the moment. There are gas men replacing the pipes and builders building a new set of flats. They've coned off loads of areas so there's nowhere to park and every morning they are blocking me in so I'm late for work. Combine that with the bin men trying to squeeze through and I was about an hour late for work this morning. I had to squeeze myself through a tiny gap this morning, and missed hitting my neighbours car (parked next to the cones because he couldn't find anywhere else) by 0.5 cm. Spatial awareness win. This has been going on for 2 weeks so far, and there aren't even half way done yet.
We also had a visit from my aunt last night, who's been told that the cause of her severe back pain is vertebral discs disintegrating. The only treatment options she was offered were pain killers and physio or spinal surgery to insert rods to immobilise the two vertebrae and keep them apart, but then she would lose all mobility in them and the problem would move to the two above. I'm sure I've heard of disc replacement surgery, so I'm a bit confused as to why that wasn't an option. Suffice to say, she's in a lot of pain, and it'll only get worse. I'm doesn't help that mr has gone back home and I think it'll be ages before I can see him again. He's brilliant at cheering me up. Continuing the moan, since I'm on a roll I turned up in all my kit for an outing last night, only to find half my crew hadn't shown up, and the other girl was busy taking out a single, and didn't even offer to go in a double with me. Rude, and nice of the rest of them to let me know it was off. Our Sky plus box broke at the weekend, so the engineer came and took the box away and replaced it with a shiny new one. It turns out the problem was actually the dish, which they fixed the next day, but they won't give us the box back, so I have lost the episodes of Lost and Heroes I was saving up to watch in my own time because Mum doesn't watch them. I was only sticking with Lost because this was the last series! Grrrrr.
I shall put the ranting bean back in her box now and medicate her with knitting, biscuits, hot chocolate, maybe some shouty music and a sofa to curl up on.
My boredom has lead me to discovering a couple of new blogs which were good, but possibly doesn't help lift the mood any, rather puts me deeper in it, because I want to be doing what they're doing. I had an email from the accommodation people at Exeter uni and so have now applied for my accommodation. Applications aren't dealt with on a first-come-first-serve basis, but those with an unconditional firm status before August are dealt with first, so that kick started me into trying to get my application to have that status. I was quite surprised to see that I could only apply for the Rowancroft halls, I was certain I'd seen somewhere you could live anywhere, but those were kept for medics primarily. My offer is conditional on CRB and OH checks. I'm not sure how to fulfil these any more than I already have, as I took the completed forms with me to my interview. I have arranged for a Hep B surface antigen test next week, I've signed the rest of the forms that came with my offer and I just need to print off 4/5 passport photos and send them off with the forms, blood test results and vaccination history which my Dr has already kindly printed off for me. Hopefully I'll be able to send the whole lot off some time next week.
In other exciting news, I have found an amazing new app for my phone that I'm somewhat addicted to: Speed Anatomy, and what's more, it's free! It displays the name of a part and you have to tap it on the diagram of a dissected body before the time runs out, with bonus multiplier points for accuracy. There are different levels, so you start with easy stuff first like skin and heart but then it gets harder (well, I haven't looked over those bits in my flashcards yet, so they're hard to me). I can get to level 9 at the moment, which is about the different vertebra, and level 8 nearly caught me out because I couldn't work out my left and right when identifying blood vessels. Level 6 proved tricky for a while; it's about muscles. Why is the gastrocnemius in the leg? I keep thinking it's abdominal. There are 28 levels in total so I've got a while to go. Have a good weekend, hope the weather clears up (maybe I have SAD?).

The residential real estate market in Vietnam slowed down last month, as interest rates and lending fees both skyrocketed. The ridiculously high rates and fees have made it possible for only the wealthy elite to secure home loans. As such, the average homebuyer in Vietnam has, and will continue to have an exceedingly difficult time trying to secure a loan to buy a house.
The increase in rates and fees has basically caused lending to come to a complete halt. The demand for residential and commercial properties still strong exists in Vietnam, though the inability for most to borrow money has caused the market to slow down tremendously.
According to various financial and lending experts, the skyrocketing interest rates are due to higher costs than anticipated for project financing. In addition, overall housing development has been quite slow, and the value of Vietnam's dong has dropped fairly significantly this year.
Those three factors have caused many lenders to turn their backs on domestic investors. As such, residential property sales are expected to plummet well into 2012 unless changes are made.
While domestic investors are having a hard time securing the financing needed to buy property in Vietnam, many of the lenders are looking towards various foreign investors from across the globe. Many of the most affluent foreign investors pay for properties in cash, thus averting the high interest rates.
There has been no indication thus far as to how long the new, extremely high rates will last. Real estate agents certainly hope that the rates drop substantially in the next few months. However, for that to happen, it is likely that the value of the currency will have to increase first.


text: I need some help from any dog experts: My labradoodle is just over 7 mo. Has all shots- neutered - just a happy dog. This morning he was lethargic, no wag to the tail, did not eat b-fast, did not poop. Did pee and drink. Layed around all day, not hungry, just sprauled out. I was able to get him to eat one cup of warm chicken and rice at 4p.m. And he drank water, peed. He has chased DH and DS around the yard - A LITTLE, if they coax. I am just freaked out because our neighbor's son did time for POISONING A DOG. Haven't seen the son around, but I figured he must have learned it somewhere. So, a what point should I cart this pup - out of town - to the 24hr. emergency vet??? DH has said he thinks he "might have been poisoned" and has said "if he dies, we'll call the cops". Doesn't exactly inspire me. HELP! I need a plan now, not if he dies(!)

High school teams from The University of Texas at Tyler Innovation Academy have advanced to nationals in a competitive Technology Student Association competition, Dr. JoAnn Simmons, IA superintendent, announced.
Tests of Engineering Aptitude, Mathematics and Science, or TEAMS, is an annual TSA competition that gives students an opportunity to discover engineering and how it can help make a difference in the world.
IA Tyler campus and IA Longview campus TEAMS groups placed first and fifth in Texas, respectively. Both teams will go on to compete at this year's nationals set for June in Orlando. This is the first time The University of Texas at Tyler has participated in the competition, where students work collaboratively to solve real-world engineering challenges and apply their math and science skills in practical, creative ways.
"The 9th and 10th grade students exuded tenacity when preparing and participating in this competition by collaboratively planning and supporting each other," said Aimee Dennis, IA Tyler campus director. "We are very proud of Trevor Dublin, Tejas Narayanan, Samuel Smith, Anna Cooper, Matthew Fisher and Jade Nunn for placing first in the state, and the students are excited about the opportunity to compete in the national competition in Florida this summer."
The TEAMS competition allowed the students to apply knowledge gained from the Science Technology, Engineering and Mathematics focus of The University of Texas at Tyler Innovation Academy to multiple formats including an essay, multiple choice and a design challenge. For more information about the competition, visit http://teams.tsaweb.org.
The University of Texas at Tyler Innovation Academy is a public university charter school with campuses in Tyler, Longview and Palestine.

School Choir Partnership Program
The School Choir Partnership program (SCPP) is an exciting initiative for schools who wish to embrace the Centenary of Anzac in their curriculum while creating partnerships with Local Choir Mobs to support the RSL Sub-branches to commemorate the Centenary and beyond. This will also give schools access to related history, music and leadership resources and the ability to participate in combined activities such as research projects, media opportunities, festivals and competitions run by the RSL Rural Commemorative Youth Choir.
Creating Partner Mobs
The focus of this program is to create Partner Choir Mobs that will ensure a pathway for all children in your school to experience and understand the importance of the Centenary of Anzac through singing, storytelling and song then continue their involvement directly through their Local Choir Mob. This pathway is vital so children and parents can see how they can get involved in commemoration at the local community level, after a quality first experience at their school.
Engaging schools
To join the SCPP and become an official Partner Mob, schools must meet a specified criteria. For the schools that deliver the program, there are some amazing benefits that will reward both the school and its students.
Like to enquire about the School Choir Partnership Program?
This is an exciting opportunity for all schools to embrace the Centenary of Anzac and link with their local community in creating positive pathways for children to commemorate through understanding.
