The Best First Date

Friday, August 10th, 2007

By Yair Czitrom First dates cause anxiety and thoughts of disastrous and embarrassing moments. We all dread the awkward but necessary first date. It comes with the territory when looking for love. But it isnt necessary to feel this way. You can have the best first date experience with every new person you go out with from now on. Here are a few tips on how you can actually enjoy yourself and possibly make yourself even more attractive on each first date. Dont bring your expectations or baggage with you. The last thing your date wants to hear about are your past relationships, exs and the problems you had with other people. You not only sound like a whiner who cant let go, but you also make yourself sound critical. If you also list what you think a relationship or person should have been, you are setting the other person up for failure because you are obviously judgmental. Your past is your past and it should stay there. You are with a person who has many aspects of their personality you can spend countless hours exploring. Look at it as an adventure instead of like a job application. Enjoy each new thing you learn about the person even if you know you dont want to see them again. You never know what you will learn or if you have found a new friend. When you leave to meet your date, remind yourself that you are your own person and this is a great opportunity for someone to get to know who you are. You are a person with dreams, ideas and intelligent thoughts that can share so much with the right person. Walk into your date comfortable in your own skin. Maintain your happy composure and keep the conversation light but honest. Dont talk about yourself in any negative terms. If you point out what you consider to be your shortcomings and flaws, they will be seen. They might have only been visible to you before you called attention to them. You will also be obvious in your insecurities and this can make other people feel uncomfortable. This is not a feeling you want someone you are interested in to associate with you. While it is absolutely acceptable to participate in conversation, remember to be just as good a listener. It means so much to people when they feel as if they have someones undivided attention and they are important enough to have your focus. When making a comment on a topic or answering a question, you are letting them know you find them interesting and worth the time and thought. This courtesy is not always noticed on the surface, but when they think back on the date, they will feel as if you truly cared about who they are and what they have to say. Finally, show them that you have a sense of humor and have fun. Laughter and humor is attractive on its own and can only help ease the tension of a stressful meeting situation. While you might not meet the one on your next first date, you will know you gave it your all and the next one wont be so bad. www.jaters.com - Free Jewish dating, Jewish singles & Jewish matchmaking service Yair Czitrom is the owner and webmaster of http://www.jaters.com - An experienced online dater that took his dating knowledge and web skills to help other daters/singles.

Little Things May Help You Stay In The Fight

Thursday, August 9th, 2007

By Dr. Yvonne LaMar Maybe its the holiday season or maybe its just me. Everyone and everything has been light-hearted and nostalgic and Ive been having a hard time getting into the spirit. During this past week Joyce Meyers television show Enjoying Everyday Life featured humorous stories and re-enactments of very funny incidents in her life. I watch the show routinely as I get ready for work. Last year, she decided to change the format and has been teaching and preaching about what she believes is our highest call to enjoy God. Gradually, her show has been becoming more and more light. Sometimes, it is hysterical. She manages to mix some very serious matters like Hurricane Katrina relief and young people in recovery with how not letting self-pity overwhelm us. Every challenge can be met with a Bible promise and every Bible promise can be met with a challenge. Many years ago, a friend told me about delivering her first child. She felt like she could handle the labor, but she desperately wanted a break. Some of us rely on moments of relief so we can find inspiration. We need the breaks to pull ourselves together and gain strength. I lost my mother before she could tell me that there would be times when the break would not come quickly. Like a boxer, you have to trust that your training and reflexes are enough because the bell doesnt ring when you want it to, it rings when the round is over. There is always irony. While some of us are in the ring bobbing and weaving, others are rested and happily moving forward. At least, thats what I noticed this week. Happy people are everywhere. I tried really hard to be one of them. One of our students, Deborah, came by with her little boy, Joseph. Joseph is way past cute, he is a magazine cover waiting to happen. He was one of the happy people. He headed straight for my dish of lollipops. Joseph didnt notice the piles of papers that needed to be read or the books that needed to be reviewed, or the appointment reminders popping upon my computer, he went right for the good stuff! OK, he is a baby, but arent we all on some level? He found everything that is interesting in my office. He gravitated toward the things that looked good, smelled good, or could possibly taste good. I couldnt take my eyes off this little bundle of energy. I decided a long time ago that babies exist to teach us and to remind us of what is important. His mother presented a bag from her workplace. Deborah knows that I work with local crisis centers and wanted them to have the goodies. I looked in the bag and saw all kinds of neat things. Soft fabrics, bright colors, and shiny stones. I called it a bag of pretty. It was a nice surprise and I knew that the ladies at the centers would enjoy them. So, I called Hale County Crisis Center, but Kay Harris, the Executive Director was on the phone and then heading to a meeting. In other words, she was in the middle of Round 4 and mentally preparing for Round 5! I personally delivered the bag of pretty and tried my best to give Kay some encouragement. Growing up in Philadelphia, I noticed that Texas women dominated beauty pageants and cheerleading. It might be a stereotype, but those were my thoughts as a little girl. As a woman, I realize that all of those Miss Americas and Dallas Cowgirls had powerful lessons for all of us. None of us are immune from the struggles of life. Little things can make the difference between a knockout and a victory. Never underestimate the power of accessories! Noticing what is beautiful is the break between the battles. Dr. LaMar researches, writes, and speaks about mentoring relationships among professional women. She also consults with growing businesses about how personality and processes can affect workplace dynamics. Her books “God Provides The Sacrifice: Women Discuss Making Their Hardest Decision” and “Drama Free Workplace” can be purchased in e-book format and paperback from her web sites or by calling 806-203-4094.http://www.DrLaMar.com http://www.DramaFreeWorkplace.com http://www.PhenomenalWomansGuide.com Article Source: http://EzineArticles.com/?expert=Dr._Yvonne_LaMar http://EzineArticles.com/?Little-Things-May-Help-You-Stay-In-The-Fight&id=108365 canadian have pharmacy her wellbutrin their emsam each patch each clonopin too and himself xanax had different from ambien if buy got online after

How to Have an English Country Garden

Monday, August 6th, 2007

By Ena Clewes Learn to Plant a Basic English Cottage Garden In the days of old England, many of the workers in small villages were called peasants, and they owned small houses with very small gardens. These gardens would have to supply the family with all of their gardening needs. The kitchen garden would consist of vegetables and mixed fruits. In amongst this array of produce they would also grow flowers. The most popular flowers would be hollyhocks, delphiniums, daisies and also an array of herbs - mint being one of the most popular.With their mystical charm and abundance of scents, English cottage gardens exhibited a style that evolved through the necessity of the times. Many families would have gone hungry if they had not had the benefit of home-grown produce. Unlike the peasant gardens, the gardens of the landowners, or gentry, were very formal with box hedges, straight lines, stone paths, and many with wonderful statues depicting the gods of ancient times. They would also have fountains with water flowing into a lake or pond. They were considered by some to be classic with their order and discipline. When the more romantic influence came into being, plants were considered to affect us emotionally, and the cottage garden was born out of this movement. One of the most famous cottage gardens was designed by the French impressionist painter Claude Monet. The cottage gardens with their abundance of roses, growing over fences, and their vine-covered arbors with flowers climbing towards the sun are now emulated in North Their informal style of tall wonderful perennials battling it out for space in the back of the borders, creating a profusion of textures and substance, and the smaller plants in the front of the borders determined to lift their heads to the sun, not to be outdone by their taller cousins, all this creates a palette of color, that would be very hard to outdo. The other advantage to having this kind of garden is that it reduces the amount of weeds that grow, as the branching out of the plants hides the sun from getting through to the ground and therefore snuffs out the chances of weeds germinating. To create a cottage garden, don’t be afraid to plant seeds close together as this creates the effect you are looking for. Go for a variety of shapes. Plant feathery plants amidst spiky ones; use bold leaf plants with delicate ones. Put a sprawling plant next to an upright one. The best rule of thumb is to plant tall at the back and short in the front of your borders. In most cases, try to plant in odd numbers of three, five, etc and in very large borders try groupings of up to seven or nine of the same plant. This method gives depth and structure to your borders. Also keep foliage in mind. Some gardeners say that foliage is more important than blooms, but the sight of colored blossoms nodding in the breeze and turning their faces up to the sun can be more satisfying. In the end it all comes down to personal taste, but whether you like straight line gardening, formal gardening, or cottage gardening, get your hands dirty and have fun!

Short Term Bad Credit Loans

Sunday, August 5th, 2007

By [http://ezinearticles.com/?expert=Steve_Valentino]Steve Valentino In accounting and finance, bad debt is the portion of receivables that can no longer be collected, typically from accounts receivable or loans. Bad debt in accounting is considered an expense. When loaning money, there is an inherent risk that clients might default on the payments. A bad credit loan is a loan to someone who is considered a high risk, due to previous problems in meeting financial obligations. The reputation of an individual in the money market is of great importance. People with bad credit have lots of problems finding anyone willing to loan them money. Lenders gladly grant loans to people who have a job, no pending credit bills and a good credit score. However, if one is self-employed, has pending bills or a bad credit rating, he or she will have problem getting a loan, be it a personal loan, unsecured loan, car loan or home loan. A bad credit rating is certainly not desirable, and should be avoided if possible. However, all is not lost even if you have a bad credit rating; there are still organizations that will provide you with a loan. They are hospitable and friendly to customers with a history of bad credit or bankruptcy, and boast of a wide customer base. So, if you have a bad credit, do not worry. With the kelp of these companies you have an opportunity to start all over and revive your life and business. There are some financial organizations or lenders who do not require you to have good credit, two-year work experience with an organization, or freedom from debt. All they need is an assurance that monthly payments will be paid on time. However, such organizations charge higher rates of interest.

Catch A Cheating Husband the Easy Affordable Way

Friday, August 3rd, 2007

By R. Houston Many women mistakenly believe they need to hire a private investigator or buy expensive software or surveillance equipment to catch a cheating husband. Once you familiarize yourself with the signs of infidelity, all you really need are your own eyes and ears and your personal knowledge of your mate. The key is knowing what to look for. The information below on how to catch a cheating husband is adapted from Chapter 4 of “Is He Cheating on You? 829 Telltale Signs.” This comprehensive guide documents practically every known warning sign of infidelity, including a multitude of little-known signs not listed anywhere else. It includes signs most women usually overlook, signs a private investigator is unlikely to find, signs so subtle that a cheating man wouldnt even think to cover them up; and signs which will help you pinpoint the identity of the other woman. For your convenience, the signs of infidelity in “Is He Cheating on You?”are grouped into 21 categories so you can easily locate the signs that apply to your husband. Look through the signs, then give yourself a reasonable period of time ( up to 2 weeks) to search for clues. Watch your husband. Pay close attention to everything he says or does. While its true that some telltale signs are subtle, most are easy to spot, when you know what youre looking for. If you stay alert to whats going on, youre unlikely to miss any significant signs. Use your senses all of them. Look at his appearance, notice his behavior. Observe any changes in his work habits and his daily routine. Listen for uncharacteristic remarks, for things he now refuses to discuss, for names dropped, for lies or inconsistencies in what he says Smell his person, his clothing, his car for incriminating sexual odors or unfamiliar scents. Feel the tension in your marriage, the emotional distance.Dont be so quick to dismiss your intuition. If your gut instinct tells you something is wrong, take a closer look. Stay Alert Dont let a single day pass without being keenly aware of everything your husband says or does. The signs that are evident one day may be undetectable the next. Be alert to anything that appears to be a departure from his norm. Some women make a point of actively searching for telltale signs. Others feel so strongly about invasion of privacy that they only take note of readily visible telltale signs. To them, certain boundaries are not to be crossed, even for a worthy cause. If you feel uneasy about spying on your husband, do what feels comfortable to you. It helps to think of it as information gathering rather than spying. Bear in mind that sometimes the end justifies the means. The more diligently you look, the more telltale signs youre likely to find. Some women observe telltale signs but fail to recognize them for what they are. They make no connection between what they see and whats going on behind their back. Theres very little youll miss if you constantly refer to the 21 categories of telltale signs in the Special Report offered below. Write Down What You Find Document everything! Keep accurate records of what you find. Dont try to rely on your memory. Record your findings in a journal and keep it under lock and key. Log in the dates, times and places that suspicious incidents occur. (phone calls, absences, meetings, excuses or alibis given, names dropped, etc.) If you have everything down in black-and-white, you can analyze what youve found to see if there are patterns to his behavior. Does he have to go to the store for cigarettes or a beer around 8:30 every Thursday night? Do anonymous phone calls only arrive a half hour before or after he leaves for his weekly night out with the guys? Does he walk the dog an unusually long time the first and third Sunday of each month? Does he put on cologne to go work out at the gym? Does he wear his best suit or one of his favorite shirts only on days he calls home to say he has to work late? Patterns like these will only be evident if you carefully document the things you find. Exercise Caution When you find tangible, physical evidence, pay close attention to exactly where and how it was found. Be careful to put things back exactly as they were to keep from arousing his suspicion. When possible, make photocopies or take photos of love notes, phone numbers, e-mails, letters, incriminating receipts and similar items you happen to come across. Store your evidence journal in a safe place. Youll need it when you sit down and tell your husband you know about his affair. As you go about conducting your investigation, be discreet. Keep your eyes and ears open and your mouth shut. Maintain your secrecy; be careful not to tip your hand. Dont let your husband know that you suspect anything at all. Live your life as normally as you while checking your husband out. Treat him the same way you did before you began to have doubts. Otherwise, he may become suspicious. Once he gets wind that youre on to him, he may start hiding evidence or attempt to cover his tracks. As long as he doesnt know that youre suspicious, it will be easier to find out whats going on. Dont Ask Because He Wont Tell Continue watching your husband and the pieces of the puzzle will gradually start falling into place. A lot of his strange behavior will suddenly begin to make sense. However, you should prepare yourself for the possibility that it could take weeks before you find out the truth. During the time youre observing your husband, you may be tempted to question him about some of the things you see or hear. Youll feel an overwhelming urge to drop hints about what youve found just to let him know youre not a fool. My advice to you is dont. If you give in to these urges prematurely, youll be making a serious mistake. Keep your lips zipped and your emotions in check until you have all the facts. Timing is everything. Dont lose the advantage you have by exposing your knowledge too soon. Restrain Yourself It will take great effort on your part to restrain yourself as the evidence against your husband mounts Do not come right out and ask him if hes having an affair unless youre prepared to hear a lie. It usually takes solid evidence before a cheating husband will reluctantly (if ever) admit to having an affair. Even then, many men continue to lie. Ask a few discreet questions, if you must, but refrain from giving him the third degree. Continue your search for telltale signs and put your major questions on hold. Jot them down in a special section of your evidence journal. Youll get a chance to ask them later when you sit down and talk with him about his affair. Restrain yourself for now. Theres nothing to be gained by dropping hints or letting your husband know what you suspect. Reveal what you knowe only at the right time, under the right circumstances. The more information you gather about your husbands affair, the more fragile your emotions may become — or the hotter your anger will begin to blaze. If the pain of discovery becomes too much to bear or you become too filled with rage to continue, hire a professional who can investigate from an impersonal point of view. Build a Strong Case Once you have solid evidence that your husband is cheating, experts agree that you should confront him with your knowledge of his affair. Make sure your case is strong and your evidence solid. It will be hard for him to deny the truth if you have things down in black and white. Thats why its so important that you keep accurate notes. Otherwise, he may try to confuse you or convince you its all in your mind. This is a common ploy of cheating husbands when confronted with evidence of their affair. Plan Your Confrontation When the time is right for you to confront your husband with what you know about his affair, the time, place and goals of your confrontation must be carefully planned. When you confront him, there are specific questions youll need to ask him about the affair. A WORD OF CAUTION: Do not jeopardize your safety searching for telltale signs. Take all necessary precautions to protect yourself and your children. If at any time you feel that you are in danger; or if your husband has aggressive tendencies, an explosive temper or has a history of violent behavior, leave the detective work to a pro. Do not put yourself or your children at risk. 2001-2004 Ruth Houston About the Author: Ruth Houston is the author of Is He Cheating on You? 829 Telltale Signs.” For more information about the book, cheating husbands, or infidelity visit http://www.Is-He-Cheating-On-You.com To receive a Special Report with detailed explanations of each of the 21 categories of telltale signs, send an e-mail to InfidelityInfo@gmail.com with “21 Categories” in the subject line.

Adult Peer Pressure–How Do You Fit In?

Wednesday, August 1st, 2007

By John Fairchild Peer - a person or thing of the same rank, value, quality, ability, etc.; equal; specific Pressure - a compelling influence; constraining force [social pressure] Peer pressure stems from an individuals’ need of approval and acceptance of their relationship with others. It is a pattern of certain behaviors that develops in early childhood and extends into our adult life. The term “fitting in” doesn’t apply only to your youth, it also affects the decisions you make as adults. The fear of acceptance and focusing on what others think can prevent you from making sound nutritional choices. Questions that can frequently pop up in your mind: if I don’t do this, will they not accept me for who I am? Will they think I am not their friend or equal because I don’t go with the flow? Mike, a 30 year old professional who does all he can to eat right and exercise consistently, struggles with his eating habits when hanging out with his friends. Tailgate parties, Friday night happy hours, picnics, football fantasy meetings, backyard barbeques, watching sports. He feels pressure to eat what his friends are eating or to order that huge Mt. Fuji looking nacho appetizer. Although he wants to lose weight and he knows he should for certain health reasons, he struggles to be his own individual in these situations. He frequently finds himself overeating in these social situations even though he is not hungry. He feels he has to eat to fit in. He doesn’t want to be an outsider. Sometimes he doesn’t even realize he is overeating and making poor nutritional food choices until it is too late. It has become habitual. When he does mention to his friends that he doesn’t want something or he limits his food portions they look at him awkwardly and make comments like, “what, are you on a diet?”, are you sick?”, just eat it, we have more than enough”, I made this for you”, don’t you like my cooking?”, a little bit won’t hurt”. Think about all the times you said to someone that you were on a diet. What were their reactions? Why the sabotage? What satisfaction will they receive when he does give in and eat what they are? Why do they get joy out of getting you to do something you don’t really want to do? What do they get out of making negative comments to Mike? Maybe it’s because they might believe they don’t have the power to change their habits like he does. If they are overweight, he might be putting pressure on them to start caring about their own weight and health issues. They might not feel ready to do this so they try talking Mike out of it. Don’t eat with the herd—Assertive tools for success. 1. Be assertive. Saying “no thanks”, I don’t want any”, “maybe a little later”, “just give me a little”, “I’ll split some with you” will work in most situations. Stick to the original answer. Saying “no, no, no” and then giving in will always make future situations harder. 2. Avoidance. Stay away from the cook or the buffet table and keep occupied. This will give you time to think about the situation and the choices will be easier to make. 3. Delay. If at a picnic, do the activities first or mingle away from the food area with other guests. They won’t even notice you didn’t eat. 4. Plan. Bring a dish for a party or picnic like barbequed chicken, cut up fruit, turkey burgers or a low fat-low calorie dessert. 5. Eat small portions. If it is on your plate, you might feel the need to finish it so it isn’t wasted. 6. Eat ahead. Don’t go hungry…anywhere. Stay satisfied all day and you will have more power over your choices. Don’t compromise the things you believe in. You don’t owe anyone an explanation. Be grateful of the healthy choices you make each and every day. If you want to splurge at an event, feel free to do so. Make it your choice and not a choice due to peer pressure. You should be your own individual and be responsible for the choices you make in life. Ask yourself, are the choices you make going to hinder or help you in your ability to achieve your goals? Avoid that instant gratification of consuming the unhealthy foods and reward the healthier choices you made. You will find yourself in a positive state of mind knowing that you stuck to your decisions to eat healthy and staying on your path in achieving the goals you set. Go over some of these destructive situations in your head and practice what you will do or say to overcome them. Mike can do it and so can you.
