Want a dream for you

The White Little Person And The Black Little One

2009-12-16T07:45:00.009-08:00

When I was a child in an elementary shool about twenty years ago,I attended a lecture which was given by a strange old teacher of other school.Sorry for that I forgot his name and the main contents of his lecture.It's so far far away.But there is one sentence he told us that I will never forget.I remember what he said:There are two different little persons in your brains.One is white, the other is black.The white little person let you achieve success but the black little one lead you to the failure.They fight for everything. All your life,all the time you only have to do one thing that you help the white little person beat the black one.I realize the old teacher told me the contrary double sides of our spirits.We can call them the good side and the wicked side. I suppose everyone has a glorious dream in the deep of his spirit.And most of the people can have a good beginning and insist on it.But on the way to get them,we must confront the acute affections given by the double sides.The good side in our minds teaches us kindness\perseverance\wise etc.all kinds of wonderful characters lead us to happiness. The wicked side brings us greed\fall\ignorance and so on. drive us to the darkness.we really want to keep the good side only,but we can't.They are always in an endless battle.we can't avoid their meeting.However,as the old sage said,We should do our best to be with the good side always and be far away from the opposite side anytime.

2009-12-16T07:45:00.007-08:00

though the weekend was over, but it is not for me. it seems that i would miss here every weekend for the part-time work. so does this week. last saturday, i went to the bank to check the wage card which is wrong for 2 monthes. then sunday i worked there for a whole day just talking and teaching for 8 hours. but the weekend was not over when i was off work. i found that the girl whose computer was locked days before was sick on her bed. there was no other roomates here , so i stayed with and took care of her for the night. at night before we went to sleep, the electrical energy of our apartment was over.all were dark. oh god! shit! the weekend is not over today! i went to the hospital with my friend for a whole morning. but she is not well yet. we will go there again this afternoon.for others there is much spare time and they can have rest or do what they want in the weekend .but for me , it is the busiest time in the weekend . so i said the weekend is not over for me!

THE REPORT OF OECD

2009-12-16T07:45:00.005-08:00

The data issued by OECD(Organization for Economics Cooperation and Development) on 8th,June unravel that most of big economics entities of world will get rid of the economics crunch and be supposed to begin reviving by the end of this year. When I was a student of middle school I was told that the economics crisis is the certain occurence of extremely evil capitalism.But we who are growing under the red flag have to experience the suffering of finacial downturn.It is a total irony. Oh,Of course,that's not my main viewpoint.What I meant is that it's quite good to see the end of this economic recession.Now that I think I should get some experience through the descent of economics.Actually I have received a magzine that involves an article entiled "How to manage your corporation during the period of economic crisis".But to be ashamed,I haven't looked it over yet.so I don't think I can submit some very useful information.As a matter of fact, what I wrote here is just some petty ideas I got from internet and a book. First of all,the bankcrupcy of GM warns us whether the developing style we are always chasing is a-hundred-percent correct.A lot of companies of China have spoken aloud the slogan of "making strong and making large".The dimension of GM empire is large enough,but finally it was crushed by its burdensome human cost.And as the execution of the Law of New Labor Contract,we must realize the the importance of human resource cost.I mean the COST. Second of all,the developing trains of thought of pluralism.Now there are lots of group corporation.We also believe the saying "the West isn't bright then the East will be bright".Actually pluralizing is a good developing method.But whether we should choose the exact relevant indrustries?How to bring balance to those periodical industries is a big challege I think. The third,this is about the index of owner equity.I recommend a percentage of the companies of Lijiacheng.I think it's right when a firm is in recession.but I don't think it's acceptable! to our domestic company.Maybe it's not fit for our national conditions.So before submitting it,I think I should think it through.

the perseverance

2009-12-16T07:45:00.003-08:00

everybody knows the importance of the perseverance. but sometimes , i can not help thinking what the perseverance is. just like the ads of the website that if u can keep up writing a log or the stuff like diary things each in a week for one year, ur english level should go to a gorgeous level.i do not know whether i have such cool perseverance, each a week,cool, like sex stuffs.so big snow outside the window,f**k adding the the snail's crawling speed of the internet.why i do not like snow. the big snow means a big harvest to the farmers,but it also means a big trouble to modern cities ,specially in beijing, the famous traffic jam, turgid clothes hiding hot girl's alluring stature.

The Happiness of being a mother

2009-12-16T07:45:00.001-08:00

I have a son of 11 years old. Like other kids, he is lovely, cute and at the same time very naughty and often pisses me off. Frankly speaking, he is a boy who was very difficult to raise when he was a baby and a child. Feeding and making him sleep made me exhausted. He often bursted out into a cry when I was absorbed in a sweet dream at the most wrong time, the midnight, and then my husband woke up too, my parents-in ¨Claw rushed into my room and tried to see what happened. He has been very thin and short for quite a few years and this situation just began to change for the better from last year. When he entered kindergarten, he show his another aspect-overtly attaching to me. He seems to need me every moment when he saw me, disturbing me whatever I was doing. He required me to play with him and being angry if I showed cold shoulder to him when I was busy (such as preparing for the professional title test and master study). At that time, I was very angry and reprimanded him which made him cry as if being wronged.But recently I began to feel that I should be grateful because I have such as cute son. He is a precious gift from God. I am deeply moved when he said: ¡°Mom, we are hard partying mother and son¡±, ¡°Mom, I love you so much¡± and ¡°I love you because son should love his mother¡±. Yes, sometime I should make thinking from another aspect, such as the valuable relationship of attaching, the irreplaceable love between parents and children. I am my son¡¯s mother, also his friend

the following days

2009-12-16T07:44:00.011-08:00

there is a saying "depression always follows extreme happiness". it fits me very well. the days before i was not so busy and always felt empty. and there was much time to have random thinking especially at night with no partner in my dorm. in fact, the task of paper hasn't not been finished yet, but i just didn't want to do that with concentration. but the following days, there will be several specific jobs waiting for me .in the following two days i will be busy with the part-time jobs . after that it will be the time to hand in the paper and there will be a exam next wednesday , so i have to prepare for that in the spare time. so i won't be a kicker any more. just fighting!

The Deceptious Message

2009-12-16T07:44:00.009-08:00

Today one of my colleagues came to me and said that she received a message from a strange number. And the message says"I am your good friend. I have to go to another city right now, but I have something to tell you. It is a pity that I do not have time to talk with you, you can dial ******this number, then you will know what I want to say and also you will hear a song which sent by me. Do not recall this cellphone number, it is not mine. Take care of yourself.". Then I tell her it is a deceptious message, I also received such as this kind of messages before. But she is very surprised by my words, and she tell me that she has dialed that number and heard a song, but she regret that she did not hear the words that her friend want to tell her. Well, I say"I hope you can check your cellphone expenses, it must be decreased." And then she tell me that her cellphone expenses has incresed 10 yuan. She feel very angry. I tell her that she must be careful about such messages, most of these are deceptious. I also receieve such messages which said "I have changed the bank card, please remit money to ******this card number." All these messages are sent by strange numbers, we just have to delete it. And I want to remind all of friends, before we remit money to somebody, we have to give them a call first even if she is your daughter, sun , relatives or friends. We have to confirm that it is fact.

Hey, you make a mistake

2009-12-16T07:44:00.005-08:00

I had lunch at home this noon. And then I went to the China Mobile Business Hall to paid the fees for my cell-phone. One of my friends works there. Well, I went straight to her. Heh, she is a beautiful girl and she loves beauty very much. So at that moment she was still looking herself in the mirror and patting her face. Then I gave her 20 yuan for the fees, and I didn't ask for the invoice because the printer was broken. We just talked for a little while and then I left for work. When I came to the office, and turned on my cell-phone(It shut off because of lower power so I didn't took it to home), I received the message from the China Mobile. I was surprised because it said that I paid 50 yuan. Oh, my God, she must made a mistake. So I gave her a call to confirmed the information. It was really her carelessness. I said that I will give her the remaining 30 yuan after work. Heh, you girl, please pay more attention to your work. Otherwise, you may not only make mistake but also lose money.

Great!

It is rainning outside now. Actually, I don't like rain very much, and sometimes may feel very unhappy for some reason. Such as the wet weather, the rainwater on the road surface and sometimes when I ride my bicycle on the way home I get wet by the fast vehicals. That's too bad.But today I feel very happy because I have got the first order from my customer. It is so great! In the past few months, I even want to give up but I kept myself to moving on. I told myself if I kept it maybe I should succeed. Now, I realized how important the perseverance is! And I have to say thank you for my cutomer, this is a good beginning, I will become more confidence from now on.

Good News and Bad News!

2009-12-16T07:44:00.001-08:00

Share below conversation with you.An artist asked the gallery owner if there had been any interest in his paintings currently on display. "I've got good news and bad news," the owner replied. "The good news is that a gentleman inquired about your work and wondered if it would appreciate in value after your death. When I told him it would, he bought all fifteen of your paintings.""That's wonderful!" the artist exclaimed, "What's the bad news?". With concern, the gallery owner replied, "The guy was your doctor."

Gained lots today.

2009-12-16T07:19:00.001-08:00

What a special day!so many things I can learn from what happened today. Just at noon,I complained somethings in blog that I feel inferior to others,just because our class had a debate in this afernoon.I was so depressed that I can't take part in it.and having classes with dispointment. And we watched the video"lecture room" again in political class.The Analects(ÂÛÓï) by Prof.YuDan .It impressed me so much that our confidence is so important in our life.Who can live without regrets? What we could do just change our attitude.the future will be bright.there is no doubt that it stroke me in such tough time. Then,what a coincidence! a new funny foreign teacher replaced our former one.taking the responsibility for us.what I was unexpected he taught me so much. A mid-aged,kind man who has a funny behavior,and humorous words amused us,and a unique teaching way made understood each other.he gave us a debate topic"Who is the laziest person,boys or girls?" following,the wonderful arguable freely moment was beginning.You know what? as a girl,whoever can't bear the boys criticized our girls,I stood up as the first person to disprove it when the boy pointed our shortcomings out.or maybe in the influence of the video.God knows. How brave I was.it surprised me! and next,I did a good job! That's amazing!I can blurt it out once more. our classmate said to me,¡°You got progress step by step,I witness it.¡± The teacher told us,that's it.just speak it out without thinking,u succeed.You think about it and make sentences in your heart,you can't speak,you fail.as if I put away the clouds from my head,making me clear.Thank you! And now,getting so much encouragement from you in blog,thank you.warmed me.Today I gained lots.Confident or not,it just depends on youself.Let's get together to keep it up!and if you are confusing about it,would you wanna join me?

Exercise for good health

2009-12-16T02:46:00.001-08:00

Today when I was enjoying my nap in my bedroom, a strange number of phone call came in.It's from my fitness club. The man over the phone said they wanted to make a whole medical checkup for me. And it's free.So I accepted it. After several events of the checkup, The instructor told me according to my body quality I should do more anaerobic exercises through the equipment in the club. And because I was a new member of their club,they will guide me one for one to use the instrument well in the next couple of months. Of course the conduct won't be free. He give me a lot of reasons for me to do it.But I told him the charge of the conduct is too expensive for me.And I don't want to this kind of trainings.after that I could feel he was a bit unhappy. Maybe he is right. For a better figure and stronger muscle of my body I should do more anaerobic exercises,.but I don't like it. It's boring to me.I like the aerobics and I just enjoy it. So I won't have to do the excise which I don't like.

EXAM~~~(FINALE)

2009-12-14T18:35:00.001-08:00

My online instructor once told us that the subjective questions of the preliminary papers are much more difficult than the actual exam.Maybe exceed over fifty percent.Now I admit she was right.Although I don't want to become frivolous,at that time I also began to question the rationality of the difficulty.I mean the subjectives are really easier than I thought. As I have spared a little bit of time in the objectives,and the subjective questions seem to be easier.I began to feel relaxed once more.I started trying to presue the perfection of the answering procedures and gave up picking up the speed of computing.Soon I found I overestimated my ability again.My wrong strategy results in I have wasted too much time on the calculating part.So I didn't completely accomplish the last complex question.I think it's just five minutes.I made some mistakens one more time. On the way home I met a pretty little girl on the bus by accident.she is a candidate from a firm of CPA.At first I thought she is a college student.But she told me she had graduated from institute for one year.After the exam we both got a loose mood,so she and I have a high-spirited chat on the bus.(To me I guess it's a perfect way to unwind) We even exchanged our contacts and hope to help each other in the exam of next year when parting.A few days later she sent me some useful information about auditing through E-mail.But because of laziness,I didn't contact with her seriously again.So this is what life is,we maybe meet someone coincidentlly,but we have to say goodbye to her in a hurry and probably never meet each other.But anyway,I'll continue to keep my enthusiasm and prepare for the exam of next year.

EXAM---(¶þ)

2009-12-13T13:25:00.001-08:00

¡°I took the accounting last year,but I got a 59.Only one score is absent to pass the exam.I think they are deliberate.A lot of people get a grade from 57-59 last year.They intend to drive us take the exam of new system this year¡± my former colleague said that to me."Oh~really?this is revolting,isn¡¯t it?But I guess now that maybe this time you can get a score of 95.¡±¡±Haha~I¡¯m not that greed,60 is ok to me¡±.¡°the door is open,let¡¯s go,Go for the 95 for both of us,See you soon~¡±When the door is open,the crowd of participants stood in line,I was at the end of the line seeing people rolling in.When I follow the torrent up the stone stairs in front of the teaching building,an idea flash in my head.I should take a picture of this spectacular scence as a souveniur.But it was only an idea.My examing room is on the top floor of the teaching building.It¡¯s said that more than 50 percent candidates will be absent when the real test begins.When I got into the room,I find the situation this year is better than I thought.Most of the people have been present.After the sterotypical regulations of those exams,the exam get started at 5:30.In fact,I believe I have made a hard effort on Economics Law,I also used to get high scores in the preliminary tests.So the formal eaxm also should be under control for me,before the exam I still thought so.But soon I found I was wrong.there are a lot of questions beyong my view range.And some of them I have never met before.(After the exam all the people murmur that the questions of the formal test has deviated the correct trajectory.We didn't find those most important knowlege points in the papers.But they even test us a lot of daily living knowlege,I remember they even ask a question like this:under what situations the banks don¡¯t have to mail their customers the bills of credit cards?TNND,although I have two piece of cedit cards,but who care those moronic questions in daily life?)At that time I was still very conceited for my ability.And I finished my papers right on tim! e.So,Tho ugh I met a lot of strange questions,I still stepped out of the classroom promisingly after the bells ring.When I get out of that building,I turn my mobile phone on.A message is coming~~~~~

EXAM--(Ò»)

2009-12-12T05:04:00.001-08:00

Generally,in the last few years the Licang campus of the Science and Technology University of Qingdao has undertaken all exams of CPA in Qingdao.But I don¡¯t know why,this time the examing rooms were set in Laoshan campus of this university.Laoshan district is one of the most beautiful and newest administrative districts in Qingdao.But because of too many hills or mountains its communication is not as convinent as other¡¯s.And the Laoshan campus is far away from my residence.The more ridicious thing is,both of the exams I¡¯ll take were arranged from the 5:30 to 7:30 in the night time.In order not to make myself overly anxious, At first I got to see the shool ahead and want to book a room in a hotel near the university.To be disappointed,this is a unilateral idea.when I look around I found there are only a lot of petty familly lodges around the school,dirty and narrow and noisy.¡°The feature of college¡± at that time I murmured.So I have to change my mind.September 19th is the examing day,We were informed to arrive in the campus before one hour to measure the temperature.(I guess it¡¯s the first time we ¡°enjoy¡± this special manners since people have the sliced bread).In fact I got to the shool earlier,when I walked along the road of the campus,I saw a lot of examees of Fincial Management have finished their examination and were getting out of the shool.The rest of them stayed here and prepared for the next exam of Economic Law.In my mind I thought most of the participants should be employees,to be surprised I found I was wrong.On the contrary,most of them are young students."So This is why the exam is so critical,too many particapants of college students"I thought.Then the examing rooms were shut down for hygiene.It¡¯s about four o¡¯clock P.M,I successfully find a bench in the campus and eat a bit of snacks I take from my home.After eating,I was wandering in the campus and hope to find some acquaintances.Luckily I meet an old colleage of long time ago.It¡¯s so good to find a partner in there.Then we! are cha tting until the rooms open.

DON'T WASTE TIME

2009-12-12T03:20:00.001-08:00

In this year my mother always misses her old house in our hometown,so she decided to go back to our hometown and stayed in her old house for a few days last week.After she was off, I felt myself absolutely free. I could do a lot of things without any chatter.That made me feel very good at first.I had a fling during these days actually.I went to bed anytime I liked.I sang popular songs with my guys over night in club.I played my favorite computer games in net bar for more than twelve hours without a break. But after all of this, I felt exhausted and my mood became terrible.I realized I wasted too much my time and energy on those useless things. and I harmed my own health.when my mother came back I had to pick her up in the bus stop with a very tired face.I really felt upset in the latter days.Even today I still feel a bitter uncomfortable,but I think I should write this blog to warn myself. I remember ROUSSEAU once said: wasting time is a high crime.So I want to cherish my time in the future and cheer me up. and I will.

Dad's birthday

2009-12-07T06:26:00.001-08:00

The day before yesterday was my father's birthday. I wrote nothing on that day for some reason , so I want to write something today.On that day, I got home earlier than before and had a half-day off . I bought a cell phone for my Dad as a gift though it only cost 300 RMB, but I feel very happy because this is the first birthday gift that I bought for my Dad spending my own wage. My BF bought a birthday cake and we got back to my home together.It is a pity that Dad did not have lunch with us because he has something important to do. In my mind, I think Dad is very solemn, and I do not have much words with him in daily life. But I care about him very much and I also want to do more for him. And I believe I can do better and better from now on.

Competitive society

2009-12-05T00:18:00.001-08:00

We are living in a competitive society. We work hard and study hard in order to find and keep a good job. Because of the harsh reality of competition, many of us, from child to adult, live an busy life. I work at daytime and study at lunch break, night and weekend. I haven¡¯t complained that much only because more or less I can find some happiness in arduous master study, though it appears as a real torture for me sometime. One of my friend share the some status quo with me: as a master student facing the impending graduation, she has to study hard to publish papers and finish the final thesis, at the same time, she has to haunt in job market to find a livelihood for her. Recently, she appears busier because she is preparing for Test for National Civil Servants. For us, life looks like a top. Maybe, as grown-ups, we have little excuse for complaining because life is the result of choices as Sartre once told us. We are free to many choices, hardship or laziness, better life or a relative worse life. But how about children£¿My son, an eleven-years-old boy, also strongly feel the pressure from the competitive society. In order to enter a key middle school, he expect to get straight A (3 As) in his fifth grade of primary school. The dream of the straight A has become the source of his anxiety, a stone over his mind. He keeps asking me what it will be if he can not enter that key middle school. Though my answer made him relaxed, I can still feel the lingering anxiety in his mind. I began to think about the issue of parental education, the advantage or disadvantage of happy education. If we choose to send our kid to learn a lot of extra courses, such as Olympic Mathematics and Star English, our kids will have little time to play and their childhood is definitely to be unhappy£»if we offer them easy childhood, they will probably face a lost youth and adulthood (having little chance to enter a good middle school and university). A child who loves study is an ideal child, rare to meet in the real life because! the nat ure of child is loving play. That seems like a dilemma¡

come on

2009-12-01T16:55:00.001-08:00

come onjust now,I'm so tired,if the time don't take away this things have slipped away,if the time don't turned,if I could come to the past,I'll say "come on" to myself to choose a good goal, because now I know that the life is so crual,I'll don't let time pasted. but now I'm sure that It's impossible,I have no courage,I don't know where to go,I want to do a big thing,but fear to lose everythings belong to me just now,I gradually feel that I have losed the superiority,I have no confidence to success for my ideal goal.the god say no diligent no good,I had to say "come on".

COLLEAGUE'S WEDDING

2009-12-01T05:21:00.001-08:00

Technically,Peipei is just one of my former colleagues.As a matter of fact,I am tired of attending the weddings of others.And she even didn't notice me officially.All the conditions reveal that I will not choose to attend her wedding party.But finally I occured in her party.Just because I think Peipei is a kind woman and I have got some help from her when I left that corporation. Actually the hotel to wedding party is not far away from our community,So I decided to take a hike to the hotel.Although today is cloudy.It seem like a good day to marry today because I also saw couples of other new wedding couples on my way out there. Frankly,I have eaten so many wedding banquets that All the dishes tasted tasteless to me.But it's good to see a few old colleagues here.People always need communication.Hehe~I met those guys at the portal.After greetings,Some of them began to complain to me about the still rough working environment.It sounded like to me that more and more colleagues now were involved in the conflict of personnel.Kind of sarcastic.And another wanted to recommend me a new post.Hehe~~Now return to the main content.Since I came here early,the chief administrator(Actually he is my old pal) hoped me to do his a favor:help to fire a kind of plastics firework(Wring to jet,jet out a lot of plastics splinters. It's popular at most of wedding parties).It seem that there is no problem to me as this simple assignment.It's a little case I thought.So I accepted the mission without any doubts.I was standing quietly on one side of the portal with the plastics fireworks in my hands to wait for the arrival of the groom and bride.About one minute later,that pair of lawful husband and wife reached the hotel.Fireworks were opening,It was lively and noisy.But when I tried to wring out the thing in my hand.Something embarrassing happenned.It didn't work out.It seemed awkward to me.So I try harder again.Yet nothing happenned.And my counterpart has completed his mission successfully and smoothly.Now the groom and ! bride ha s walked across the portal.They almost have entered the hall of hotel.I was so anxious that I shouted at the chief administrator:There is something wrong with this.It doesn't work.This friend took it immediately and wringed it open.~Pa!!!.The answer is clear. I'm so sorry,My biceps is not strong enough to wring it open.Damn it!!Now it looks like I have to go back to do more exercise to strengthen my musles. After the party,One of my preceding colleagues also invited me to sightsee the new decoration of his new house.As I like to go a hike home.I refused him to drive me home.I went home alone instead.But when I was on the way home,The other faint situation broke out.It is cloudy and foggy.So I lost the sense of direction in the city.I have chosen a wrong way.When I realized the fault.I was too tired to walk back home.And I have been far away from home already.So I had to grab a cab at last. Some day!!Uh-ah~~

china drinking culture

2009-11-30T06:34:00.001-08:00

china drinking culture for my drinking a lot last night,I think a lot. I don't know when and who invent the alcohol,I also don't know how is it descended,but now I think It is a bad traditional customs,all we know that drinking is bad for our health,but we had to drinking,because it is a habit when we have a meat with others,maybe 99% peoples indeed do not want to drink, why not forbid? indeed need a ban for public servants,if we have a ban on this,It will be better . at goverment department,it's a bad stytle,and will be influence the mass's emotion. to tell the truth,every public servants don't want to drink,but they have no excuse not to drink when they at the table, if we have a ban,it will be a good excuse.all we know that an import ban on drinking has impeded when wangtie,The secretary of xinyang municipal Party committee came into power.so no one drinking at noon. why not extend to nationwide? maybe now we know that why drinking culture can't developed into drinking civilization!

April 23th,2009 is our navy the sixtith founding anniversary.Actually our country will hold a grand maritime fleet review in Qingdao to celebrate this historic day.It's said that seventeen warships from twelve countries were invited to join the spectacular parade tomorrow.In that moment our national and the committee of military chairman Hujintao will attend this unique ceremony.And our marine marshal named admiral Wushengli will lead and direct this peaceful parade of navy all the time. Unfortunately I am not a weapon expert or even military fan.And now that I have seen the Base of Olympic Sailing Race for several times.So I don't think I have to visit this memorial meaningful spot at that occasion.But I still think it's really an exciting and glorious moment for China, for all of us. As you know,because of the lack of military knowledge,it is very difficult for me to write more about this ceremony.But I recalled a past miserable event of our navy at this special while of today.Above all I am not good at history either.So I don't want to popularize the history knowledge here to show off someting,But I still believe most of my dear friends remember it too.It's the Sino-Japan War in JIAWU year.About one hundred years ago during the Qing dynasty period the North Ocean Fleet is one of the most powerful fleets for all over the world.The westernization movement(Sorry,don't know how to exactly translate it) of patriotic personages made our country begin to prosper step by step during that period.But Japan army laid waste our fleet.that vile maguan pact not only robbed our precious wealth and broad territory but also destroy our national confidence to become powerful.That failure made our country fall back at least for twenty years.But by plundering our wealth and resource Japan turned into an utter capitalism country.So it could get rid of its own unfair regulations from the West and joined or organized twice great wars of world.In the meanwhile our China had suffered a lot of humiliations once m! ore. I remember one said:Japan and the U.S had the war,after two decades they will be friendly;China and the U.S had the war,after three decades they still can become friendly also;but China and Japan had the war,they won't be truly friendly even after one hundred years.Certainly I am not a member of extreme nationalism.I am not gonna disturb anything also.Today the theme of our period is peace and development.But there is a word I thought in my mind:We loathe the war,but we can't forget the war for ever.

Beautiful Wuzhen

2009-11-27T10:25:00.001-08:00

Last weekend, our department organized an autumn tour with Wuzhen, a famous water town as its destination. At beginning, I was not very interested in the tour because I went there once several years ago and found that it had little difference with other water towns like Xitang, Zhouzhuang and etc. In my eyes, those towns present to us the same sight: Along the two sides of a slowly flowing river, there are many old houses standing in tightly knit blocks. Most local people have changed their houses to small shops which sale small commodities¡¢local products or snacks. And those so- called local products or snacks are the stereotyped stinky toufu¡¢braised pork¡¢crisp candy¡¢salty sauces and homemade handspun cloth. But this trip is far beyond my expectation. Except Dongzha, the old part of Wuzhen, we visited a new developed area ¡ªXizha, a wonderful place integrates old resource with fresh idea. It is said that the government has cost 800 million RMB to purchase all the old houses here from the local people and change them from private residence to taverns, bars, boutiques and shops with fairy good taste. Now it becomes a quite and beautiful place where fashion mix with tradition and simplicity mix with delicacy. When looking out of the boat we rent, I saw the most glamorous picture I have ever seen: small lanterns of taverns fluttered gently in the breeze; in front of the tavern, friends or couples sat comfortably in cane chair, enjoying the pleasant scenery and chatting leisurely. Suddenly, I feel a kind of inner tranquility and spiritual recovery. All the work pressure and anxiety seems to floating away in the very moment¡If I have chance, I will come to this enchanted place again, with my husband and son.

BEAUTIFUL SCENERY

2009-11-27T06:41:00.001-08:00

Actually there is nothing special happened to me for the last few days.Because I know I am going to have a hard time working out my plan.And it's time for me to start it at once.These days all my time there are only four sites I can go to:the library,the fitness club,the university and my bedroom.Every day I make myself exhausted.But I still feel right.And I think this kind of days to me will at least go on for more than one year.And I am satisfied with it so far. In the supper time of this night,My mother told me that the fountain in the music square near our house has begun to work for this year.She said you should take a look at it this night.So I decided to set up a pretext to go out for a look.I ate a lot of foods this evening.Now I must have a walk helping digestion after supper.My poor stomach. To be unexpected,the fountain had stopped erupting before I arrived.Maybe the eruption of the fountain is just for the inspecting delegation staying here in the daytime. But this is still quite a wonderful evening I feel.The colorful lamps around the fountain are shinning.Flourishing bamboo woods are whispering in the spring mild breeze.Those nameless trees and flowers stand in the green lawn watching you quietly.Walk on the wooden lane with the smell of the flowers under bright round moon.You can see pretty girls and boys are everywhere.Lively children are playing in the middle of the square.I can't express my happy mood exactly by words.I just love the beautiful scene very much.I know I will do cherish this condition.And I must work hard to make the condition for me better and better.

Wii DVD Has Sense For Your Wii

2009-10-24T07:30:00.001-07:00

Wii is one of the most popular gaming consoles now aside from Microsoft Xbox and Sony PS-3. It has been known that Wii has an edge over the others when it comes to its functionalities and use except for one thing-it was then DVD-lame. However, for the benefits and pleasure of its fans, methods on How To Play DVD On Wii has been done professionally.

Speaking of Wii DVD, there are two methods that were introduced to its users. You might ask to whom the applause should be, well, that is for Homebrew. They were the once who made such thing possible for Wii users. Now, better than ever, Wii is already capable for DVD playback through Homebrew function.

In contrast with the past, Homebrew installer software packages now has standard feature for such function already. It can also be done through hardware change in which softmod has been used since that is easier and better. When you talk about softmod, you will then be dealing with two approaches in playing DVD on Wii although others might not anymore be interested in terms of its technical processes.

Let us now talk about the said two methods. The first of which is by accessing the Wii Homebrew Channel and the other method is by employing a DVD to Wii Converter or using the DVD to play DVDs on Wii. Although this time these are the only two ways that were made known to the people, a lot more will come in the future since Wii Homebrew DVD will not be left behind.

Let us further talk about those methods. In method one, Wii coders gave the console what it lacked before-a DVD playback, by installing a small, hidden channel on a system which blesses the console with a libdi file or DVD access library and allows you to view videos with the MPlayer application or the open source media player. In this method, you have to download a homebrew video player, copy them to an SD card, and use the Homebrew Channel to apply a two-second patch. Once installed, you can then pop into the Mplayer app from the Homebrew Channel, put a video DVD in the drive, and your favorite video will be right infront of you in no time. However, one has to take note that there's a corresponding risk on the Wii if you do something wrong.

The second method requires a DVD to Wii Converter to play converted DVD on Wii. This method is said to be easier and safer than the first one because all you need here is the DVD to Wii converter and an SD card. The process is also simple. You just have to convert DVD to Wii supported format, and then copy that converted DVD to your SD card. If that's done, play the converted DVD on the Wii with the SD card inserted on the wii and the fun is right next to you then. Having those two methods is indeed wonderful; it's now your choice which one is better.

Cholesterol - All about cholesterol

2009-10-12T03:10:00.001-07:00

What is cholesterol?

How many are still asking the question? Cholesterol is a fatty substance that is found in greater quantities in animals including man as in all other life forms. It has two origins: the diet and biosynthesis, primarily by the liver.

It is present in all cells and its rate, when too high can cause health problems very serious or even fatal. Obese people, smokers, alcoholics and menopausal women are considered more risky, but we find poorly controlled cholesterol in children younger and younger.

Cholesterol is found in two forms. The free form, ie it is associated with nothing else and the esterified form when linked to a fatty acid to form Steroids. Its low hydrophilic character who found himself in the free form is completely removed when it is linked to a fatty acid.

However cholesterol should not be considered an enemy. Humans need cholesterol because it is an essential component of our cells. In fact this is the priority component of cell membranes. The formation of the lipid layer of plasma membranes utilizes a significant portion of cholesterol. The latter also plays a role in membrane fluidity.

There can be no human life without cholesterol because it is the precursor of steroid hormones and is among others used by our body to manufacture vitamin D. It is also an essential constituent of bile.

Let us respect our cholesterol, but keep it in the eye!

The "good" and "bad" cholesterol.

In fact, cholesterol is not under two different molecules. Rather transportation systems that carry blood that have very different roles: lipoprotein (LDL small density lipoproteins) and HDL (high density lipoprotein). Hence the popular name of LDL and HDL.

HDL cholesterol recovered in the organs that have too much and relates to the liver which is responsible for its elimination. These are HDL cleans all the arteries of fatty deposits of poor quality and thus help reduce the occurrence of atherosclerotic plaque. Therefore we attribute the adjective "good" cholesterol to HDL.

LDL working in the opposite direction. This means that they deposit cholesterol on artery walls. Then begin to form slabs of fat called atheroma. Hence the title of "bad" cholesterol.

Cholesterol is one of the causative agents of atherosclerosis leading to cardiovascular disease. The excess "bad cholesterol" and the lack of "good cholesterol" are recognized as risk factors for cardiovascular disease.

There are several treatments to reduce "bad cholesterol" but exercise and healthy eating are identified as the natural solution more effective. However, some drugs have the power to increase the rate of "good" cholesterol. Think of "statins" that get extraordinary results in people heavily affected by the "bad" cholesterol.

A visit to your doctor is recommended. Have a test to know your cholesterol level and take the opportunity to inform you about "statins". The results of your tests will tell you if you use medication or if a better quality of life, a healthy diet and exercise would be sufficient.

But remember that over the report "total cholesterol / HDL is higher the cardiovascular risk is high.

Firstly the menu susaphone + I68 is on 3 pages scrolling already marks the difference between the CECT I68 and I68 +.

Not to mention its touch screen reacts to commands more fluid pen and finger.

For Internet browsing, I was surprised to see a list of website community already integrated into susaphone I68 + (MySapce, Google, MSN, Live Search, CNN, Facebook, eBay, ect ..). No need to enter their URLs in order to surf, I find it good to save time.

Each menu page displays fully the options available to it, eventually roll scroll up and down on the left of each page.

To use the quick and convenient Ciphone I68 + loads also tools and additional entertainment.

As the converter unit weight and distance, the composition of music with personalized music box pretty full at instrumental (guitar, saxophone, piano, violin, etc -).

The options related to the camera's susaphone I68 + have also been improved, with 10 frame colors for photos taken contrary to the old version that offers only 2 frame colors.

Here are some points missing in Sicphone I68, identified after 2 or 3 manipulations on Ciphone + I68. A GSM Cect more practical than the previous.

Why must maintain relationships with your list

2009-10-09T18:50:00.001-07:00

Over time, even if you continue to attract new listings, your list will start to lose steam for three reasons:

1.The people on your list are starting to forget who you are (this is especially true they are listed on several lists).

2.The people on your list can read your messages: they feel they receive nothing interesting to you, or you can offer them as things to sell.

3.The people on your list do not buy anything. This must be avoided at all costs by maintaining a constant percentage of purchase.

What can cause such behavior? Basically three things:

? You do not send enough emails

? You do too much promotion and publicity, or you're targeting the wrong.

? You do not offer enough free content useful and interesting

The combination of these three actions will lead you directly to the check box.

I can assure you it is easy to avoid such problems and is the exact purpose of this report.

In summary you will seek to maintain constant contact without blowing their mailbox.

You will offer commercial offers regularly to ensure you a steady stream of cash inflows.

For example you can offer your list to get a free day.

http://fr.giveawayoftheday.com

Finally you will compel your prospects / customers to stay enrolled in your list by offering regular free offers exclusive and absolutely irresistible.

This point is crucial. Indeed, a list will not you, immediately, a rich person, unless you do your audience loyalty and expand your visibility through word of mouth about your special free offers.

With this strategy you will maintain your list of "warm", eager to receive and read your messages-even purely promotional.

What is a Coach in times of crisis?

2009-10-07T22:52:00.001-07:00

In recent weeks, television channels, newspapers, media in general we are planning a considerable flow of reports on the financial crisis. The "teaser" from opening pages of the mainstream media are full of titles all the more worrying than others.

- Crisis Will it reach you?

- Will you keep your job?

- Companies will "degrease" their personal

- Etc..

The daily lot of information that distill fear is at its height. Nevertheless, all the press and media are very fond of this situation. The newspaper circulation increases exponentially. Hearings climb to new heights. We can say that the "microcosm media" knows no crisis, because - it feeds on them.

Now the release of such information generates a very negative process powerful and harmful on the conscience. Worse, they feed negativity surrounding that produces a large share of bad decisions (or lack of choice), while the situation of each person is mostly nothing (or little) affected by this crisis.

So what?

1 - The Cure for media silence!

I recommend a course of "silence the media" for 3 weeks. The more your mind is "cluttered" by the daily discharge of bad news and you feel concerned. You identify yourself with the current situation (crisis) with the problems that are grafted. React by turning off your television at the time information.

2 - Select the programs you are good!

Nowadays, it is easy to choose quality audiovisual programs. Remember that the subconscious is very sensitive to the images that pass on the television screen. Studies have shown that consumption of anxiolytics increased significantly after the broadcast of a news story very depressing. Put forward your right to choose programs and programs.

3 - Develop your "reticular function in action for your success!

Service Activator is a reticulated area of your brain that is close to the insertion of the spinal cord. It has many functions still little known. However, we now know that it plays an important role in the success of our strategies. For example, if you buy a red car, you notice all the red cars that pass through your visual fields. In short, we see only what one wants to see.

The reticular activating function works the same way when you think about everyday problems. You then do a "fixation" mental. While the media contribute, we have seen above, to immerse yourself in this gloomy communicative.

The result is that you then "guided" to the problems, obstacles and bad choices for your future. The reticular activating function is somewhat self-programmed to make you make yourself known failure. Like the example of the red car, you no longer see the difficulties of your life, you amplify as a "magnifying effect" that enlarge your interpretation in a sense that each side you seem insurmountable.

Conversely, feed your function reticulated history of people who have passed the crisis. The biographies of books abound in this area. Read it, soak up the stories of men and women who have the destiny forced upon reaching success, even in periods of recession. Eventually you identify yourself with these characters. Reticular activating your function will be stimulated to take you through a form of "subconscious Government" to success.

4 - Learn how to find what "looks good"!

The true reality is not what the television and radio news on the web or distilling all day long. They only put the light on a few isolated elements, often interpreted. The reality is quite different. It is first in your daily acts. In your vision of what you - see - really.

Also, billions of good news happen every day. Learn to be a witness. Become a "Finder's good news." Turn again vtre reticular function in "Detection of positive points. You 'did not invent them, or wear "glasses vie en rose". Life shows you every moment that an unlimited number of events is going well. Take for example a day that runs smoothly for you. This in itself is great news!

How to induce mode detection of good news?

Here are some effective ways to induce your mind about how to search for what "looks good":

* Convince yourself that the true reality is not in the media world

* Look in every situation, every action (even the most trivial), every experience that is good

* Ask yourself regularly directed questions:

- What's positive (for good, wholesome, interresting ..) in this situation?

- Whether it is the valuing of the day?

- Where is the reassuring article of this newspaper?

- What is the "good news" day?

- Where will I find that gives me hope today?

- Etc..

Thus, you will develop a mental attitude to win and go over the crisis with a smile.

Good luck to you

My PC will not boot! How to prepare an initial diagnostic

2009-10-07T09:20:00.001-07:00

This article is for beginners, of course, if you know the structure of a computer, you will not learn new things.

That you have ever? or is it the first time? when you try to turn on your computer, nothing happens. Apart from the sound of the click of the switch, nothing happens, especially not panic.

To understand and analyze the failure of his computer, he must know that it is composed of different parties, more or less important. Before going into details, it is good to ask the right questions.

Some computer vendors or DIY, will immediately say, "Sir, your CPU is burnt or your motherboard is defective" and all that without opening the hood of your computer, which is totally outrageous.

A study reveals that 90% of cases, computer failures are minor and do not buy new parts. Obviously, some unsuspecting individuals do not always fall on a decent computer.

Before passing the test, observe what happens. You press the switch, the fan runs, power works.

Means that the computer starts but the screen stays black, two choices, it is the map screen deathmatch or is badly plugged, or more serious is the motherboard is defective. And some manufacturers also have pre-programmed codes that appear with beeps (long, short) and for determining at what level is the breakdown. Following the test is valid only if the pc does not start and the fans do not rotate.

To begin, you must ensure that the power cables, drive out the current necessary to power supply, and yes, it is not uncommon to find a cable which undergoes quenching, due to lightning or d 'a surge of electricity network may lose its conductive qualities and block the arrival of the current, or simply a strip with a faulty switch, it's already happened, I assure you.

Then we will look at the power supply, some are equipped with fuses, check that it is not simply grilled, that is to say, make sure that the contact of the fuse is not broken. These fuses are relatively easily in a store that sells electronics.

The easiest way to see if your diet is deficient is to have on hand, a second feed, or you have a second computer or a friend can lend you his power, just to do a test.

If with another diet that works! Just buy only one new food, whose price does not exceed 20 euros for cheap food.

If the pc does not start after all these tests, I would advise you to turn to a technician, to-fro this level, it would be dangerous at this stage to go further in this type of approach.

If I have solved, would not just once, a problem of this kind, and have saved a few euros from your computer dealer, I'd have fun.

Do not be a scapegoat

2009-09-26T22:17:00.001-07:00

Have you ever been a scapegoat, to be branded, to be pilloried, as you put a spoke in the wheel?

If so, how did you react in these painful circumstances?

It is obvious that things are very difficult to cash.

While everyone has their opinions, everyone can criticize as long as they are constructive and useful. But there is more a question of constant criticism, unjustified. We speak of people who take delight in you fall back, criticize you, destroy you, discourage you.

They take you for severely retarded and you feel unable to do something your ten fingers.

The best attitude to adopt in this case is to do everything not to worry about these, not to be touched deep within yourself.

You must keep moving forward. It is important that you do not get stuck in your swing. You should not leave you destabilize, demoralize. We must especially avoid everything for you: if you are a scapegoat for your work, talk! whether your union representative, the physician's work, your spouse. It is the only way to release the pressure and not crack. This requires great strength of character but from the moment you know what you are and what your worth, you will succeed!

And instead of kill you, this should give you more rage to move forward and prove to all those malicious people (to be polite) you're right.

Of course, it's tiring always having to justify continually prove what we are capable. But it is necessary to move forward, to progress.

This is not always easy to go against some people, imbued with their little power that you do everything to block the path. I know one in particular who likes to say he is paid to be mean, it's his job!

While discussions continued, the reasons are not sufficient because the person in front of you stop and you can block, you must never give up. From the time your arguments are correct, clear and precise, you have no reason to keep quiet.

Attention this is not because we do not respect you that you must do the same. Never go back into their game Always stay polite, do not shout, do not put angry. Be master of yourself, your nerves. If you take away the person in front of you will win!

If you know where to go and if you have the motivation, nothing will stop you. Always stay positive and optimistic. To combat specialists of critique free, small heads, the persecutors, fill your mind with positive things (thoughts, DVDs, books, etc..). This will boost and you will stand, fight and even destroy all this negativity.

From the moment you have an objective, you can move mountains. You can reach accomplish things you might not be capable. Everything is a question of motivation.

Imagine that your baby is in a room on fire and you behind the locked door, do not you think that in this case you would be able to break down the door even if you're a frail?

As the saying goes, if you close the door, go through the window.

Do not do, beat you, turn their backs on what kind of fanatics and move into being more determined.

Show everyone what you're made of!

Solar energy, renewable energy, the most promising?

2009-09-24T22:25:00.001-07:00

Solar panels are increasingly appearing on the roofs of houses and not only on new buildings. It must be said that the sun is a renewable free and inexhaustible.

However, France is far behind compared to other countries where the sun is a common source of energy. It is the fourth largest in Europe behind Germany, Spain and Italy.

There are two kinds of solar systems: solar thermal and solar photovoltaic.

The solar heat can heat the water, through sensors, which passes through pipes under the panels and spreading in your balls and your hot water radiators. Aid, the form of regional grants and tax credits (45% of total cost), you are offered to help you install these panels still cost quite expensive at present. For solar thermal, it is around 5,000 euros in the south and 7,000 euros in the North. Ah yes, there is a considerable difference between these two regions of France. This is easily explained. As the sun is more active in the South, it takes less panels to heat water flowing through pipes. This is not just for the northerners, but it is purely mathematical!

The solar thermal panels can be installed on roofs but also by land. The key is that they are oriented at 45 degrees south, where the sun is strongest, for maximum efficiency.

More and more French install such panels. But beware, you go back in your bills in a few years only if you use fully heated water panels. The water not used is lost forever, you can not store it.

It's different for solar photovoltaics, which allows storage (with batteries) or resale (under certain conditions). The solar photovoltaic panels convert sunlight into electricity. These seem more profitable in the long term, hence the desire of the French Government to strengthen their development. Wish that is beginning to take shape this year. According to the Union of Renewable Energies (RES) and the French trade association of solar photovoltaic (SOLER), solar PV has experienced strong growth in France in 2008 (169.2 MW against 36 MW in 2007). Far behind the solar heat, it tends to gain ground even though most of these facilities are not connected to the electricity grid (- 25%), which prevents the use of electricity for the community .

However, this trend should be confirmed that in the future insofar as the Grenelle Environment requires to reach a fleet of 1 100 MW of solar PV in 2012, before reaching 5 400 MW in 2020.

Besides, November 17, 2008, the Minister of Ecology Jean-Louis Borloo, presented in Paris the Government's plan on renewable energy. It involves the construction of at least one photovoltaic central region by 2011. The Minister said "The big is the sun. In industrial terms, and the collapse of industrial costs, it is probably there that has the largest capacity. "The financial incentives are taken to invite the industry, supermarkets, farmers put photovoltaic panels on their roofs: their electricity will be sold 45 cents / kWh (Source: AFP).

Photovoltaic panels still cost money. The price of installation is around 15,000 euros. The price is high because of the batteries or batteries that you need to install to your store electricity. You benefit from regional aid and tax credits for installation (50% of total). Profitability is made in very long term, provided that you can sell to EDF your surplus electricity. This is also the biggest problem with solar panels: the connection to EDF induces significant and long approaches. However, according to Jean-Louis Borloo, steps should be simplified in the near future.

The solar system seems to be a promising future provided to reduce the cost. To do this, simply connect the system directly to the EDF network, process more economical than batteries. The price of photovoltaic panels is also decreasing steadily. They are now 3rd generation with cells printed on media.

PV also seems to democratize more. It is on the market quite small devices such as flares, signs, kiosks emergency on the highway, suitcases sun to recharge your mobile, your laptop, your gps, etc.., Using this method . There are even fishing boats powered by solar energy.

It seems oriented more toward the sun. This is an ultra positive and going in the direction of those who want to protect nature and the environment. Indeed, solar energy is clean, renewable and inexhaustible. What more?

The secret of a successful relationship

2009-09-24T03:06:00.001-07:00

Whatever type of relationship, friendship, love, work, it appears they may actually be a success until the moment that two important elements coexist: listening and communication.

A successful relationship, constructive can not exist without the presence of one or the other.

It seems obvious to many. But why is it so difficult for some to build relationships, keep them in time?

Most often, the lack of communication is highlighted. For example, a couple can no longer agree. One continually seeks to impose its views, ideas, beliefs.

The other can not issue its opinion and when he has the misfortune to do so, that's where the arguments begin endless.

Why happens to be there?

Generally, it is the lack of listening that is behind everything. Listening is vital in relationships. Of course, it must be performed correctly and most sincere. Do not say "I'll listen because he or she is happy and at the same time think of something else (what am I going to do to eat tonight?, Making your shopping list, think to call someone, etc.). Do not hear, he must listen!

Listening must be absolutely sincere it is constructive.

Of course, listening does not mean accepting everything that you said.

After you finish listening to your partner, you can advance arguments that contradict this, but after he finished his remarks.

The bottom line is learning not to interrupt the speaker just because you disagree or you want the abbreviated conversation quickly.

This indicates a lack of respect for that person, or a lack of love against him.

It is not always good to try at all costs to impose its ideas, its views in a relationship. The latter is built for two. Attempt to impose his ideas without question, is trying to dominate the other, so it destroy the whole relationship.

Of course, listening to sincere, constructive takes time. If you really want, deep within yourself, a relationship to succeed, you will always find the time. It is valid in the couple but also between parents and children, between friends.

And from the moment you've learned to listen sincerely, communication will be only better. The frictions are less numerous, less systematic, there is less risk of misunderstandings or misinterpretations. The relationship will only be more beautiful and certainly more harmonious.

Precious stones cure, it seems?

2009-09-23T14:55:00.001-07:00

The gemstones are dreaming of their beauty and their colors. They make women more beautiful, it seems. They have always been admired and sought after. In the past, they often attributed the mysterious and mystical virtues. This is the case with everything that is rare and expensive.

But the stones were soon decked another quality of that care, to relieve. It was the Greeks who were first used for therapeutic purposes, then the Orientals, American Indians, the Hindus, the Chinese. The French are not left behind, the keepers of the Middle Ages used to treat the emerald liver.

Today is treated by the gems continues to make believers. It became a medicine and was even given a name: lithotherapie, which comes from the Greek lithos meaning stone.

But what in fact is a precious stone?

The really precious stones, there are only 4: diamond (white), sapphire (blue), ruby (red) and emerald (green).

Besides, there are a multitude of semi-precious stones: amethyst, jade, topaz, blood, amber, coral, aquamarine, hematite, agate, citrine, garnet, jade, turquoise, etc..

The lithotherapie not used only for precious stones, all stones are used, the most expensive to least expensive.

The essential feature of these stones is that they are all different color, characteristic for the primary lithotherapie.

Indeed, these are the colors of stones that determine their therapeutic effects. These stones emit colored vibrations which act differently on the body. It's a bit of color therapy.

Thus, there are three kinds of color: hot (red, yellow, orange, black) that are quite exciting, the cold (blue, purple, white) that soothe and neutral (green and all shades) that harmonize and balance .

Indeed, using stones that have one of these colors, you'll be calm, relaxed, more balanced, more active, more excited.

How should we proceed in practice?

One of the most used methods is to place the stones directly on the chakras of your body. Each chakra has a corresponding color. Thus, to balance your chakras, so your body, you must set each chakra stone that corresponds to it. There are 7 chakras: 1 = red or black (ruby, garnet and hematite, etc..) 2 = orange (carnelian, sunstone, etc..) 3 = yellow (amber, citrine, yellow topaz, etc. .) 4 = green (emerald, jade, malachite, etc..) 5 = light blue (sapphire, turquoise, aquamarine, etc..) 6 = dark blue (sodalite), 7 = violet ( Amethyst).

For this technique, it is best to call a professional because it is difficult to pinpoint where the corresponding chakra point.

I will say no more about the chakras, because I've already studied specifically in one of my guides "Everything about the chakras you can download for free at Abond @ nce Editions in the section" Free Gifts ".

You can also wear a pendant stones or put in your pockets. They would thus have the power through their transmission energy, relieve bodies that need to be.

Massage with rock crystal are also possible. Some stones are pulverized and mixed with food to be ingested.

Another technique: "magnetized water", obtained by placing a stone in water overnight. The stone would transfer its energy. It does more than just drinking the water to find health and wellness.

The gems all have different therapeutic properties.

Examples: amber protect children against pertussis and cons toothache (at birth of children, it was customary to offer them a necklace of amber), the Emerald would be beneficial for memory, the heart, sleep, eye, jade is effective for kidney problems, the ruby would be a great re-energizing the whole body, improve blood circulation, combat depression; sapphire eliminate headaches, improve eyesight, make more cheerful; the blood relieve hemorrhoids, fight anemia, increase longevity, etc..

All this is only a few examples among many others.

As you can see, there are stones that heal sores all small daily or every disease.

Their high energy and color would help restore balance in body and spirit.

It still lacks depth and serious studies to confirm their benefits, however many people use it and seem to get better.

In any case, a priori, this should not have adverse effects on your body include, for example, a stone on you.

However, if this form of therapy you desire, please consult experts (provided that they are well chosen because there is no federation or training recognized by the state) and especially never neglect to see your doctor in case of illnesses or health problems.

Other antidepressants and tranquilizers are too consumed?

2009-09-23T02:54:00.000-07:00

The French are the biggest consumers of antidepressants and tranquilizers in the world. A 4-French would use regularly. Nearly 200 million boxes are prescribed each year.

I would firstly like to clarify that I am aware that there is a difference between antidepressants and tranquilizers. But these two psychotropic essentially the same objective: fight against the malaise. The former are intended to eliminate sadness, mood disorders, depression and the latter deal more anxiety. They are also sometimes prescribed together, tranquilizers being at the very beginning of the depression.

Should we fear the very high consumption of psychotropic drugs? Is it exaggerated or is this a sign of a deeper malaise in society?

This questioning does not seem trivial since a study Anglo-American-Canadian in February 2008, seems to demonstrate that antidepressants would have no greater effect than placebo, except for the most severe depressions.

It follows therefore from this study that most individuals who consume antidepressants and tranquilizers in France do nothing. Indeed, not all are suffering from severe depression.

That is precisely the problem.

It seems that in recent years, people are rushed on antidepressants and tranquilizers at the slightest pretext. A little anxiety, two bad nights of sleep, a small decline in morale and hop, antidepressants or tranquilizers!

For them, it is the ideal solution, I would rather say the easy way. Who knows not surround yourself with loved ones or acquaintances as antidepressants or tranquilizers? Personally, I already know at least 4.

Beware, I'm not saying that we must remove the psychotropic. They definitely effective on people with severe depression, which could not cope without.

But why prescribe every turn, for a mere passenger discomfort? Should we not look for alternatives more natural?

Before jumping on antidepressants and tranquilizers, people should not they be taken in hand, seeking the causes of their discomfort, their anxiety and find the best solutions and the least "risky"?

Indeed, antidepressants and psychotropic drugs are not candy, they have side effects, such as addiction (which happens very quickly), the consequent weight gain (more than 20 kg in three months for some), irritability, etc..

Nowadays, it seems that people are fleeing increasing their responsibilities and do prefer the ostrich rather than trying to solve their problems. They say I'll take an antidepressant and I see life in pink, I am disconnected from the realities of life - But during that time, the source of their discomfort, their anxiety remains and risk of s 'worsen if nothing is done to solve them.

To make life more beautiful, we must learn to face problems. We must face them head on. This is not always easy but it's the best way I know to get by. This is not hiding in psychotropic problems disappear like that, a magic wand!

We must also learn to put things into perspective. Some mountains are not much. They consider themselves the most unfortunate of the world, less fortunate, they always want more, they spend their time doing their "Calimero". They can not be satisfied with what they have. A force, they do not appreciate life as it is. They live simply and not languish in a corner when there are lots of beautiful things around them.

They have forgotten that life was beautiful and it was worth to be lived fully, it should not look absolutely Greater Happiness (full of money, bigger house, the nicer car, etc.. ) but thoroughly enjoy every little moment of happiness that life offers us (the scent of a rose, the smile of a child, the gesture of affection of a spouse, a good meal, a walk on the beach, etc. .). This may sound naive to some but believe in my experience, since I think like that, my life is more beautiful. When you learn to appreciate those little moments you live fully and you will find that, oddly, is only from there that greater happiness will come.

Moreover, simple solutions and "natural" exist to reduce the discomfort without having to take psychotropic drugs. I know what I mean, I myself have experienced difficult times in my life but I never wanted to resort to antidepressants and tranquilizers. I worked a lot on me and I finally found solutions that allowed me to get out.

Before you rush on psychotropic take you in hand and see what you can do by yourself. For most of you, they will not be necessary.

For others, suffering from deep depression, do not hesitate to consult a doctor, you prescribe psychotropic drugs that work best for you, so that their effects are not more negative than positive.

Reservations necessary antidepressants and tranquilizers to those who really need it!

If you also want to fight your malaise of "natural", you will find more information here: http://url-ok.com/872aa4

Shea butter

2009-09-22T02:43:00.001-07:00

Shea butter comes from the fruit of the shea tree. He is originally from Sudan and grows throughout West Africa.

The shea tree is robust and can reach 20 meters in height. It takes 25 years to produce fruit and reaches full production to 45-50 years. It has a life span of three centuries.

The collection mainly performed by women, is done from May to October. Shea butter does not grow in the wild and has never been "domesticated." The production is fluid and varies considerably from one region to another, from one year to another. The weather, bush fires, the scattered trees, etc.. are all factors that may limit production. In addition, the collection can be dangerous for women because of the snakes that abound in the locations of trees (large areas of tall grass).

The fruit of the shea tree are used in the diets of local people. It is composed of pulp, a walnut and an almond. It is the latter that contains fat (42 to 48% of whole fruit), shea butter.

For butter, the almond is pressed after heated: to make 1 kg of butter, it takes 4 pounds of almonds. Butter crude thus obtained is then refined to remove impurities and its pesticide for bleaching; to give it a more pleasant odor.

Shea butter has very interesting properties, both in terms of therapeutic and culinary.

It has been used for centuries in Africa.

It is used to treat sprains, colds and sores. It would have a beneficial effect on joint and muscle pain.

Its soothing properties, moisturizing and protective also make a good cosmetic product. He mixed easily with other ingredients of cosmetics.

In Africa, the main product of dress for women and men.

It helps protect the skin against weather and sun (it is an excellent balm against the effects of cold), he fought against cracks, he serves as balm for dry hair, it nourishes the skin diminishing aging. The major cosmetics groups in Europe have understood the virtues of shea and introduce more and more in their products.

Shea butter is used as fuel and detergent in Africa.

Shea is finally used by Africans in their diet: it is sometimes the only fat they have.

It is also for its culinary properties that shea butter is imported into Western countries for making margarine, puff pastry, for example. But is the candy and chocolate that use the most. It is a good substitute for cocoa butter (only taste good but diverges refinery will limit the differences).

The shea virtues exceptional richness for African women. This is a good supplementary income. However, production is mainly traditional, but the African women have organized themselves and created groups (community groups) who aim to pool their resources in order to buy more powerful presses, for example. At the same time, these women are educated and literate.

Thus, shea butter has a significant impact in Africa. It is a bonanza of a business perspective but also social and human development.

Eat legumes!

2009-09-21T23:09:00.001-07:00

The "pulses" What is it?

As their name suggests, these are vegetables - but vegetables for a particular category. It is a plant whose "fruits" are enclosed in pods.

They are very numerous and very varied. You know the most but some are given up to date lately.

Here is a list of legumes, as complete as possible:

beans: red, white, black, from Lima, Mongetes

beans: green soybean

the soybeans: Yellow, Black

dried peas: whole, broken, chick peas

lens: green, red, brown,

etc..

With all these kinds of pulses, you can do things!

But why should you eat legumes?

Many may think that these vegetables are cheesy, they were part of the diet of our grandparents, their famous stews!

Well, if you also think the same thing, you're wrong.

Indeed, more and more nutritionists recommend eating legumes.

What arguments they advance for us to love legumes?

Is highlighted, first, their exceptional nutritional value.

They are rich in protein, vitamins, minerals, complex carbohydrates (slow absorption unlike simple carbohydrates like white sugar) and what does not spoil anything they contain very little fat.

So if you eat beans, you'll full of protein, B vitamins, magnesium, phosphorus, calcium, iron, manganese and copper, energy, and you limit your weight.

However, for legumes are beneficial to you 100%, it is advisable to accompany cereal, seeds for their protein value is the same as meat. Moreover, fixing the iron, eat a food rich in vitamin C during the same meal, as a kiwi, an orange and avoid drinking coffee, tea and Coke.

Legumes have another quality that is very important for people who want to lose a little weight. As I said earlier, they are not fat, they contain "good" carbohydrates and above all they provide a feeling of fullness very healthy!

Eating beans in a salad or a dish of lentils, you're soon full or "stuffed" as they say. Very practical schemes!

Of course, everything depends on how you cook these pulses. If you do make that stew or sausages, lentils, legumes dietary benefits are erased by the sausage and other sausage fat.

Of course, I have nothing against a good stew or chili. However, as you often do not eat these foods and legumes that are good for health, here are some recipes are easy and cheap to accommodate the best and this miracle food to eat.

But before any preparation, I should give you some details. Legumes are often offered in packages. Before cooking, rinse them, soak them overnight in cold water, rinse and cook them. The cooking time depends on the type of legume. Look on the package, time must be indicated.

Otherwise, you can use canned or "vacuum" for those who want to go faster. However, prefer non-cooked. You accommodate them and to your sauce!

Last little point: the risk of flatulence, the biggest drawback for many legumes. Yes, this defect exists. It is due to the carbohydrate they contain. But it can greatly diminish or disappear over time. Soak them well and rinse well, cook them longer (they are easily crushed with a fork). Otherwise, avoid swallowing too much air while eating (slowly and chew well, do not talk too much). Finally, products are available in pharmacies to eliminate flatulence.

Finally, here are some of my recipes:

The salad of white beans or red beans with onions cut into small pieces (if you like).

The red bean stew: fry onions in olive oil, add beans (I'm not cans cooked), potatoes cut into pieces of tomato sauce, paprika and cook 15 minutes. You can serve the whole of meat.

For beans and peas, which I cultivate myself, I'm a simple gardener with onions too. Very simple but as is "garden" is a real treat.

The chick pea patties: In a bowl mix the crushed chick peas, a spoon of tomato paste, paprika, a whole egg, made into cakes and cook everything in the pan, turning halfway through cooking.

There are tons of other recipes - You make your imagination.

With all these developments, you can not say that you do not like beans. Why throw good food health, cheap, low in calories and easy to prepare?

Do not deprive yourself of legumes! They will make you well -

Concentration, the primary basis of Pass

2009-09-21T01:58:00.001-07:00

Some people come to work in noise, to write books with music, writing fabulous speech with a crowd around them, to break records in a manic stage or hostile. How do they succeed?

They come with their power of concentration.

They come to isolate, to go somewhat deep within themselves.

Concentration is the power of focusing on one specific thing while ignoring everything that surrounds us is the mental control of his body and mind.

Concentration is necessary for human progress, to succeed more reliably and faster, easier to achieve its objectives. The concentration can not be dispersed in all directions ( "how puzzle") and not lose sight of the essence, the goal. It is always difficult to properly perform several things at once.

The man who knows how to concentrate, which focuses on her work or her task, succeeds. It will not be disrupted by external factors that will prevent him from advancing. It will delight his employer, his associates because he will do his work without interruption and especially with more speed, more performance.

But the power of concentration is not only useful in life. In private life, social, but also a valuable ally. It avoids falling into depression while hunting from our mind the dark thoughts. If these were the bad idea to interfere in our brain, it suffices to focus on positive thinking, happy, to make it disappear inevitably. If you're mentally tired at the end of the roll, he must perform an activity such as reading, painting - By focusing on it, shows that the brain regenerates, the ugly thoughts disappear or are less present. Of course, the obsessive thought is still there in a corner of the brain but is less involved, less crippling and does more to advance.

The merger is just a matter of will and practice. Some make it easy (at home, it is a reflex innate), others more difficult. They must learn the technique and train regularly.

To do this, there are two basic rules:

- Isolated from the outside world, not to be disturbed by external factors.

- Full control of the body and mind. The mind must control the mind and body must itself be controlled by the will. These three interlocking elements that achieve perfect concentration.

Finally, the key is to perform each activity without having their minds elsewhere. This can then be satisfied with ourselves because the task has been completely accomplished. The work, even the most banal, even the most ungrateful, has been achieved without distractions, without wasting unnecessary time to think about different things often negative.

All the power of thought, will lead to a whole towards a precise point so it is natural that the success is the appointment.

Concentrate and you will succeed!

The chrononutrition a new kind of diet

2009-09-20T18:06:00.001-07:00

Every day, new kinds of arrangements out on the market. It must be said that weight gain concern a lot of people nowadays. But there is evidence for some time to regimes regimes does no good. Instead, it leads to very often "yo-yo" more harmful than anything else.

Rather than a strict and binding when you are denied everything, why not choose a method that teaches you to eat differently and do not see food as your sworn enemy.

Appeared for some time the chrononutrition.

According to the proponents of this new method, you should be able to eat anything. What happiness! Make a plan without restrictions, the dream! But precisely, is not "too good"?

In fact, as its name suggests, it is to eat the food (nutrition) at some particular times of day (clock). This new system was developed by Dr. Delabos.

The principle seems very simple: you can eat fatty foods when you lift, the sumptuous meals at noon (5 hours after the first meal), sugary foods to taste and lighter meals at bedtime.

By following precisely this order, you simply follow the pace of voting body. Indeed, as you could see yourself, as a rule, you consume more energy in the morning and evening. So it seems pointless to eat more at night since you do not have significant calories. Indeed, your sleep will not command a high energy expenditure. So if you eat more at night, you will store the calories unnecessarily.

This idea seems very simple and mostly logical. It seems to flow naturally.

Entering more into detail, you who are regulars of drastic diets, you will be surprised to learn that Dr. Delabos advocates.

In fact, it allows the consumption of chocolate, chocolate bread, cakes super sweet, if eating the snack. This would finish the day with full of energy thanks to sugar. By cons, if you eat the morning they would be harmful for the morning, your body really needs to fatty foods.

Thus, again unlike other regimes, the cheese is allowed (all cheeses) but only in the morning. This allows you to start the day and go until lunch without the munchies for 11 hours. This would also avoid the production of cholesterol in your body because the cheese you have already given enough. You can accompany the bread, but only in the morning.

If you like butter and oil (olive, canola), it is better to eat in the morning or noon for rape.

Regarding the sausage, you have right but in the morning. For meat, all meat is allowed only for lunch and lean meats like chicken are permitted at night. As for carbohydrates, they are allowed for lunch but in small quantities. Eggs (4 per week) seem particularly recommended especially in the morning or afternoon to replace the meat.

As for fruits, you can not eat all day. As they contain sugar, you should try to book them.

And for the evening? It does not seem to keep you much. Ha if they forgot the non-fatty fish. Prefer the dinner, as it is low in calories that you will make very light meal.

By following these principles, you should lose weight. But when you look closer, we see that everything is allowed, but as gradually as the day advanced, you need to eat less, you reach the final consumption of 1400 kcal per day. In addition, this type of scheme seems rather divorced, which does not bode well for post-regime.

Anyway, as I have not tried this diet, I do not know if it really works. If you try, do not hesitate to do but check before and why not talk to a nutritionist.

All I can say is that from what I see, some foods that are allowed (butter, cheese, eggs, for example) are not very good example if you have cholesterol problems, or cardiovascular problems. Moreover, it appears to contain lots of fat (morning).

I recommend strongly, if this scheme you are interested to talk to your doctor before.

Enlighten yourself at a lower cost with skylights

2009-09-20T02:16:00.001-07:00

Do you know the skylight?

We hear more and more talk for some time. I must say that this seems an interesting system since it helps bring light in your home without installing a lamp or larger windows. And as the light is important for our well-being, these skylights seem to be a promising future. The effectiveness of these wells is more to prove. They have proven themselves in Australia and the United States.

But what in fact is a skylight?

It is a process that can pick up light from the outside with a shaft made of an aluminum tube with small mirrors arranged in a specific way. Usually placed on the roof of the house or even in front (with a flashing which guarantees the sealing of the facility), the light is captured by a sensor and progresses gradually through the mirrors until the room light (in its center, for example) within which it is diffused through a diffuser or dome.

Their main advantage is that they can be installed in all buildings and anywhere: no need to illuminate the room directly under the roof. A dark room immediately find the light through the wells. The light comes to you regardless of the layout of your home.

The installation seems simple enough (a few hours are enough) but if you're not a great handyman, it is better to hire a specialist to avoid the risk of flooding if you drill your roof without treating the tightness of the installation. You do not need to change your frame and request a building permit or apply for work.

There are several types of skylights. The choice is most efficient. According to experts, it is preferable to choose the sensor and diffuser are made of acrylic (99% of light passes) more efficient and more resistant than polycarbonate (only 70% of light pass).

Afterwards, according to documents and to clarify the use you want to do, the aluminum tubes are long and of different diameter. As an example, a tube 25 cm in diameter can illuminate a room of 10 m2. Not to mislead you in your choices, get advice from a manufacturer.

For skylights can add accessories such as shutters to do more to bring light, fans to circulate air along the light of the lamps at nightfall, your Item not found completely in the dark.

As for cost, skylights are affordable but still a bit expensive. You can find from 650 euros up to 19,000 euros. The installation by a specialist will cost about 200 euros.

However, as they make you save electricity, they appear to be profitable within a few years. Their ecological side is not neglected either. And icing on the cake, is it not better to be in a room lit by natural light rather than artificial light?

Small flat, the skylights will never replace our good old windows but they are very efficient at places where you can not precisely install windows. In addition, if the sun does not shine too much outside, scattered light in your room using the well will be smaller, obviously. This is the same principle as for windows.

So instead of installing lights everywhere, use skylights greener and more concerned with your well-being.

It was better before

2009-09-19T18:20:00.001-07:00

Who has not once said: "It was better before! ?

Moreover, countless shows "60 Years", "Rock'n'Roll", "70 Years", "80 Years", etc.. clearly demonstrate that the nostalgia that recipe. The organizers of such events do not only surf the wave, not just a matter of marketing. They actually respond to a request to an appropriate audience. Artists supposedly "has been" are also amazed at their new success.

As said one of them during a recent interview: "We've gone from star status to one of 'has been' and now we worship! "

The songs are good triggers memories. This song reminds Johnny Hallyday surprises-parties of the 60s. This allows slow to remember her first kiss. This song Piaf makes us remember our first love. And you? There are certainly worship songs that reflect key moments in your life.

This need to relive the past has been fully identified by Radio Nostalgie. But this need, what is it?

In a world where the future seems uncertain and where this is not always rosy, people feel the need to cling to their past because it is moments lived. There is no uncertainty about what will happen. It's like watching a movie we've seen: there is no suspense or anxiety, we already know the end.

They look at good moments they have experienced at times, certainly not always happy, but they were more complacent because of their young age.

Moreover, the brain tends to obscure the difficult times, it seems quite natural to want to relive happy moments.

But today, everything is not an excuse for nostalgia, music, clothing, furniture, marketing, etc.. ? All this is not done to make us forget the daily realities of this life? Is not this a way to infantilize people?

He did not let the desire to relive the past becomes an obsession. It's nice to occasionally remember good memories of this kind. But it's dangerous for his personal evolution to abuse. Especially since the past that we are present at every turn is usually embellished, smooth, sterile. It is more a dream than reality.

By living together continuously in the past, we are preventing us from projecting into the future. We know very well that every great achievement can not succeed without viewing the result we desired. Do not deny the past but do not try to reproduce it as is. We must learn to use it intelligently. Do not regret the past but obtaining experience, positive or negative, to avoid making the same mistakes.

It is not constantly looking behind us we can move forward. We must go forward, turning to the future if we want to succeed.

Do you paramnesia? Health

2009-09-19T10:19:00.001-07:00

"Paramnesia? What word barbarian! Inside, there's the word "amnesia" with the Greek prefix "para". But this division does not appear to provide further explanation.

However, I am sure you know what paramnesia, you may have suffered at one time or another in your life. Indeed, the paramnesia is the feeling of deja vu.

This term was invented by Emile Boirac in 1876 in his book The Future of Psychic Sciences. But the phenomenon had been described previously.

You probably already happened to walk somewhere and you say: "I'm sure I've seen this place yet I've never been to this area. Similarly, you can experience the sensation of having already seen a person so that you see for the first time.

In fact, you made false memories. You confuse the past, present and future. When this condition occurs, you can no longer distinguish reality from fantasy. The two mix. You take things from your imagination to real memories.

This form of paramnesia is best known. But the fact of taking one word for another is also the paramnesia.

This is a true memory impairment which can be quite disabling, embarrassing as it gives the impression of having a mental problem.

It appears often in people with epilepsy. But attention, paramnesia is not a symptom of epilepsy.

In fact, the right hemisphere of the brain, particularly the temporal lobe, which comes into play during the onset of the disorder.

Various hypotheses have been advanced to try to explain this phenomenon.

Some believe that people with paramnesia are reincarnations of previous beings, which would explain that they have already seen or experienced the places or events.

Others lean more toward prophetic dreams: you have lived in your dreams that you currently live.

Others, psychoanalysts, think that this would be caused by the fact that you want to relive, unconsciously, events that you've already experienced.

Still others, perhaps more Cartesian believe the disease occurs because the brain would have stopped working for a time very short. Thus, when a live event, if your brain stops for a millisecond, you are missing information. So when it restarts, you have the impression of having already experienced something so long ago it was a few thousandths of a second. However, the brain, as he was arrested, has trouble finding the concept of real time. Do not worry, it will eventually put things in order but a few minutes later.

This explanation has the merit of being more realistic and reassuring. If you suffer from these problems from time to time, you need not worry unduly. This becomes more worrisome if you live constantly and if it turns into delirium or hallucinations. But rest assured, this concerns only 10% of people who feel the deja vu.

Moreover, as the disorder occurs when you are tired or stressed, to remedy this, you can relax, relax. Otherwise, as it is a disorder of memory, you can do exercises to maintain, that you can only be beneficial for other diseases or disorders of memory that exist.

In severe cases, please go see a doctor.

Desperately seeking mentor

2009-09-18T22:20:00.001-07:00

When you want to create a business practice any activity, change of life, it seems easier to do by being accompanied by a mentor.

The mentor is a mentor, a person who knows, who has already gone through where you want to go. It is there to give you advice to help you avoid making mistakes, so you can move faster.

So, having a mentor seems to be quite a benefit to succeed, to progress more quickly and better in life. This is indisputable.

However, this does not turn into a fiasco, you must take some precautions.

The first obvious thing is that you must choose the right mentor. Indeed, some people can improvise mentor while they do not have the capacity nor the skills. Of course, it seems extremely difficult to know if you're dealing with a good or a bad mentor. Maybe you need to test it, offer him some kind of traps in order to ascertain if his skills are not limited to the "blablatage, if not ultimately a good talker.

Now, assuming you've made the right choice, there is an error to avoid. You must avoid being fascinated, obsessed, obsessed by your mentor. This could be dangerous.

Your mentor is there to help you, but to advise you not to destroy your way of thinking, your trial, your personality. You must keep your freedom of action, your free will.

If you feel trapped by your mentor, if you feel they do not do anything by yourself, you must flee, abandon. Indeed, perhaps you find yourself facing a guru of a cult!

Your mentor is there to guide you and not your grind, to break you mentally.

It must just be a launching pad to your success. His advice is invaluable, even indispensable, but its role should stop there. Is that you, personally, to build your future. You're the only master of your future.

The ideal addition would even surpass the master. Ideally, a good mentor - sincere and competent - does he not think this way? It must be your ally, a collaborator and not direct you to go in the direction he wants him.

You can rightly admire your mentor, be fascinated by his success, for his success. But you must keep a cool head and absorb like a sponge that teaches you the sole purpose of any return "to your own sauce."

This is a good mentor! It will identify you by your potential and help you develop.

If you understood all this, you will go far. A mentor is critical to achieve great things, but it's only you who will arrive after your dream! And perhaps you become one day you own mentor?

How to observe what lives within us

2009-09-16T20:11:00.001-07:00

How to ensure that we are on the right path of life? How can I be certain that we act for our own good? How do I know that we are not under the influence of other circumstances or events?

I dare write the answers to all these "how" based on self-observation at all what we are exposed and everything happens by itself. An observation without any presence of mind, without prejudice. An observation based on facts and what makes us awaken in us. Being focused more on the fact that the thoughts which we live. Krishnamurti guide us in this direction by this quote: "look at things in a very lucid, without prejudice, any a priori simply see the facts. "

This observation generated by all thoughts of a centration to listen to what you feel in you. This contact with your feelings created by the fact provide the answer wrapped in your own truth, your truth to be. This observation is made to you a profound attention paid to context, the reactions in you that they are expressed by your feelings. This is no attention to whether you respond appropriately to standards, to standards, but what happens to you in a complete lack of context.

This attention will reveal and awaken in you new emotions, probably. Therefore, during the period of observation, you should see the reality of what is does not react either with pleasure or with pain. Look no attempt to compare, analyze the immediate stop to what is happening at this moment in your being. What happens is that the true expression of what you live, what you feel in this moment. "View daily reactions, it bring out the new: what you call spontaneity. "Krishnamurti said.

I would continue with another great quote from this man today has been Krishnamurti: "true perception is an observation without a shadow of a movement of thought is the absolute silence of memory - this memory that is other than time and thought. "You will not find your answers to" how ", giving the look on the past but by bringing more attention to what exists in you in this moment. Having this ability to self-observation of feeling which stems from the fact you will be straight with yourself, with your being and you're on your own path to changing circumstances and people around you. "These are the opinions and beliefs that prevent the observation that is. "To remind us Krishnamurti.

You may not know you, recognize you and be aligned to you outside where you are in the moment. Observe, see what is inside you and pay attention to your feelings beyond your conditioned thoughts and all comparisons will create a touch of deep listening of your being. You will react more to the facts, but you will act according to what you are.

Alignment with your self, your being you to the truth that you are looking for as you provide a frame of reference. The truth is you and not in institutions, social organizations. You are your own frame of reference to know what is good or not for you. This alignment is possible only by your own observation of what is in the here and now you.

What are the practical forms of observation or observation means you ask me instantly after your awareness of the benefits of compliance? I will try to answer you in my next articles. Awareness of observing what happens to you without thinking, without prejudice, without comparison, without social framework reflects a movement within critical listening of your being.

Diabetes Warning! Health

2009-09-14T23:05:00.001-07:00

In two of my previous articles, I spoke of OA and cholesterol, two major ills affecting much of the population. But I have not spoken of diabetes, which appears, as you know, when you have a high sugar in the blood. It also affects many individuals and can have unpleasant consequences, especially since it is difficult to control especially for food lovers who find it difficult to do without sweets, among others.

To see if you have diabetes, just do a blood test and to check your blood sugar. If too high, you have diabetes.

Beware, there are two types of diabetes:

- Juvenile diabetes or insulin-dependent (or Type I diabetes): it concerns the people, especially young people, who have a pancreas that does not produce enough insulin. They are therefore forced to inject insulin. The latter is a hormone produced by the pancreas that controls how cells of your body convert sugar into energy that you swallow.

- Diabetes mellitus or fat or non-insulin dependent (or Type II diabetes): it concerns individuals who, due to poor diet (too much sugar and too fat) have a pancreas that malfunction. Here, it is not necessary to inject insulin.

Neither diabetes should be taken lightly. To see if you have, there are some warning signs that can alert you: blurred vision, excessive thirst, a difficulty for your little injuries heal, an urge to urinate frequently, fatigue, tingling sensation .

If symptoms develop, see your doctor immediately because the consequences can be severe: cardiovascular disease, severe vision and kidney damage, nerve damage.

If you are prone to these types of diabetes, do not overlook above and do everything to try to minimize. Ideally, of course, is to act on prevention and do whatever it takes to not have diabetes. But in any case, I repeat, see your doctor who will advise appropriate treatment, tailored to your specific situation.

Here, however, some things you can do (after taking advice from your doctor):

Above all, one of the things to do when you have diabetes is to watch your feet. Do not laugh, it's very very important. Indeed, diabetes decreases at you the sensation of pain and therefore you can easily hurt you, you scratch without you realizing it. This infection, minimal initially, can worsen rapidly and lead to gangrene, which leads, in turn, amputation of toes or foot. This is not so rare that one of my neighbors had to be amputated one of his feet.

So to avoid coming to these extremes, wash your feet daily, dry them properly; watch them morning and evening and treat any cuts, the lower bulb.

After the feet, teeth, you must be monitored regularly by your dentist because diabetics have brittle teeth. Brush them thoroughly and regularly, three times a day is ideal.

Changing some of your eating habits can sometimes be enough to lower your diabetes.

- If you're overweight, the first thing to do is try to lose weight by eating less sugar and less fat and more fiber (contained in cereals, fruits such as grapes) and vegetables green (like broccoli, and watercress). These slow the time it takes for glucose to enter your body.

- Eat lots of fish because they are rich in omega 3 and less meat.

- Use and abuse of spices like cinnamon, cloves and turmeric. In contrast, significantly decrease your intake of salt.

- Drink plenty. The water and the decoction of burdock and olive leaf, remove the excess sugar in your blood for diabetes mellitus. Some vegetable juice, as juice of raw potato juice or watercress can help you lower your blood sugar, as the infusion of blueberry leaves.

- Avoid eating too much sugar, too much fat in order to minimize your bad cholesterol, thus increasing both the risk of contracting cardiovascular disease.

This new diet may be accompanied by a sport rather small exercises reasonable walking type, qi gong and swimming. In practice only after talking to your doctor because your diabetes may well forbid you to do such exercises.

That is, generally, in 90% of cases, a change in your eating habits, in consultation with your physician, can help stabilize and reduce your diabetes. The key is to take it very seriously because you will bite your fingers if, ultimately, you become blind or if you amputate, just because you continued to be negligent, if you say "the doctor gave me some pills so I can eat whatever I want "-

The vigilance and regular consultation with your doctor are the only ways to reduce your diabetes.

Is Your Ex Trying to Win You Back?

2009-09-14T02:58:00.001-07:00

Have you seen a few signs lately that would make you think that your ex wants the two of you to have a second chance? If your ex-husband or ex-wife is putting out signals that they want the two of you to work things out, what should you do? Well, that depends upon what you want. Do you want to give it another try or are you tired of trying?

Sometimes a little time apart is all that two people need to see what they really want is to be together. There are many reasons that people split up. There may be problems communicating and keeping in touch with each other's feelings. One thing that is confusing is the relationship that has been a series of break-ups and reconciliations.

When you and your ex have been living apart and both of you are miserable maybe it is time to get back together. The main reason a relationship fails is because the people in the relationship failed to understand the other's needs. There are relationships that would be better off not being renewed. But in this instance it would be because of abuse or serious problems that cannot be worked out.

If your relationship has failed due to the fact that you and your ex have let hurt feelings get in the way, there are options. The easiest thing in the world is to forget that the other person has feelings. Saying hurtful things that cannot be taken back is one of the most common occurrences when two people have disagreements. Living for the future and not dwelling on the past is one decision that will have to be made in order to reconcile.

If there are children involved getting back together for this reason is not a good idea. Unless the reconciliation is dependent upon what the two of you have worked out using the children as an excuse may backfire. If there are fights and arguments constantly this cannot be good for them to see. However, if you are beginning to see that your ex wants to try again and you are willing it is worth the effort.

Just do not make the mistake of doing something that you do not want to do because you think it is the right thing to do. Your ex may call and send you flowers and ask you to go out with them to dinner or elsewhere. The question you have to ask yourself is, "Do I want to do this?" If you are still having feelings for your ex, it is easy to want to get back together hoping things will be different this time.

However, it is extremely important not to make the same mistakes that were made in the past. If this happens you will end up right back in the same predicament you are in now. When making the decision of whether or not to reconcile, do not rush. You have time to think about it and discuss the relationship with your ex. Make sure you are making the right decision.

Preparing Your Child for a Move

2009-09-13T14:57:00.001-07:00

Moving to a new home or even a new city can be a scary prospect for your child, no matter what their age. Your child's moving experience can be positive or negative depending on how well you prepare them. If you've got a move on the horizon, you can use the following steps to make the experience great for the whole family.

1.Start talking about the move early

As soon as you know that you'll be moving and know the basic details of the move (where you'll be living, where your kids will be going to school, etc), you need to share this information with your child. The extent of your sharing will depend on their age. Older children will feel comforted by specific details about the move right away while younger children may feel overwhelmed by too much information. If this is the case, you should share small pieces of information slowly as the child asks for them.

2.Listen to their concerns

One of the worst things that a parent can do is put their foot down about the move and refuse to listen a child's concerns. Your child may have questions about why she has to move, what school she'll attend and what will happen to their old friends. Although your child's concerns won't change the move, it will make them feel a lot better to know that you are willing to listen. Help them work through their issues with the move and calm their fears. Don't just sweep their concerns under the rug - they are valid and they deserve to be answered. Come up with the best answers that you can and if you don't know an answer, look it up together.

3.Involve them as much as possible

This will vary greatly depending on your child's age. Teens and pre-teens may be involved with choosing your new home. Younger children can pick which toys they'd like to bring along in the moving van. Children as young as two can help pack on the moving day. Involving your children helps them realize that this process is about the family and not something that has been thrust upon them. On the moving day, they can help out with any age appropriate jobs.

4.Give them a concrete plan for staying in touch with old friends and family members

One of the biggest concerns children have is how they'll stay in touch with friends once they move. Help ease their fears by giving them their own address book full of the addresses of their loved ones. If they are old enough, they can stay in touch via e-mail or even with a web cam. By working out a plan with your child, they'll be more comfortable envisioning what living in their new home will be like.

5.Get your child excited about their new home

Once you've made the move, take a tour of the new town as a family. Look for restaurants, bookstores, parks and other activities that you can participate in together. This will help you all feel more at home.

With the right attitude and the previous steps, you can make our move a positive experience for the whole family.

Baby Safety and Hazards

2009-09-11T12:12:00.001-07:00

Every parent is seized by fear thinking that the most precious little one can be seriously hurt injured or worse. That is why it is a paramount thing to childproof the place where the baby lives. The best way to do it is to go down on all fours and you will get the view your baby has.

Electrical Items
So, provide your baby safety by checking electrical outlets, all of them should be covered, even if you think that some of the outlets are out of reach. Do not be so imprudent, babies tend to grow and very soon your toddler will be strong and clever enough to push a chair and reach the same things you can.

Children are curious people and once reaching an electrical outlet he or she will be very eager to stick in his or her finger or other objects. Adults know what usually happens in such situations but children are not so experienced and they can get electrocuted. This idea won't give you much peace of mind. So it is not enough only to explain your baby that sticking fingers is bad, but also provide your outlets with safety caps. It is also vitally important to keep other small appliances such as blow dryers, curling irons and irons unplugged and out of reach.

Medicine and poisonous household cleaners
Be maximum cautious with medicine and poisonous household cleaners. Some medicine might look like the vitamins your child always gets from you and some of poisonous household cleaners can have an aromatic and fragrant smell which can lead astray and the baby can conceive a wish to taste it. The place where these items are kept should be out of reach and advisably always locked. It is ill considered to think that child safety caps can keep your kid out. Children can be very smart and resourceful and in this case it won't do them good. One more piece of advice: always keep the number of your local poison control centre handy for emergencies.

Shopping bags and garbage bags
Playing little children like to hide themselves and they can find it amusing putting their heads into such bags. As shopping bags and garbage bags are airproof they can easily cause suffocation. You'd better keep plastic items such as shopping bags and garbage bags out of reach.

Can curtains be dangerous?
Any kind of drapes and blinds are not dangerous until their cords are out of reach. Otherwise they can form a loop and cause strangulation or throttling. Make sure that your baby's crib is not near any of these items.

Choking hazard
Always keep a watchful eye on the things your baby play with. Infants tend to put everything they see on their way into their little mouths and those objects can be a choking hazard. How small should a thing be to be considered as a choking hazard? You can use an empty toilet paper roll. If the object will fit inside it could be a choking hazard.

Dangerous water
Never leave buckets or any big vessel with water or cleaning solutions out. Babies can drown in less than an inch of water. Keep always in mind that even the best childproofing does not guarantee safety to your baby. Your constant supervision is the best childproofing.

Meeting an Apartment Roommate

2009-09-10T02:00:00.001-07:00

Meeting a potential roommate can be an exciting, but unnerving thing. If you're going to room with a person in your apartment for a year or more, the decision is a big one. Evaluating your roommate and also ensuring your safety should you not choose said roommate is vital. There are certain steps you should take before picking a roommate to move in to your rented apartment.

Meet at a convenient, public area. It's integral not to meet at home due to safety issues. A coffee shop, bookstore, mall, or elsewhere are good ideas for meeting your potential roommate. Close off the meeting time. You don't want to be stuck strangely leaving or giving the person an impression that you are definitely not choosing him or her for the apartment. Give a 30 minute timespan and let the person know in advance. Ask for an ID. This can be an awkward step but ensuring the validity of a person is important. Try giving them your ID first so it's a reciprocal process, but if they don't return their own license, it's a likely red flag that you should worry about. Be you. More than any other step, your best bet to forming a enjoyable roommate situation is being clear about your tendencies, your psyche and theirs. Hopefully, your openness will open up them to be just as clear about their real traits and apartment living habits. Leave things open ended. Treat it like an job interview. Making a speedy decision can never end well, so think it over, and let them know that you'll be in quick response about the roommate decision. Note taking. This is especially important if you are interviewing a few potentials for the apartment. However, refrain from doing this in the process of talking with the person, because you may appear neurotic and likely, someone people don't want to live with. Ask questions. Delve into their personality or their inability to let you know about their psyche as much as you can. Why don't they have a strong living situation already? How messy are they? What are their social habits?

Divorced Families and Book Inventory Software

2009-09-10T00:38:00.001-07:00

Divorce is so commonplace these days, we don't seem to notice it much anymore. With up to 50% of marriages ending in divorce, this seems to add up to a lot of lives which are split in half. But instead of making this a difficult situation, perhaps there are ways to make things easier. Since families with children will most likely have visitation schedules, this also means that possessions will be split up between locations. With book inventory software, you can more easily keep track of where a child's books are - one less thing to worry about when your child heads off to visit their other parent.

Two Sets of Bookshelves

Books are something children may not use as often as their cell phone these days, but if they're still in school, books will still be an important part of their lives. If they are new to the divorce arrangement, they need to make sure they are keeping track of the things they own - especially when a parent lives far away from the other parent. With book inventory software, children can enter their own book titles in (if they're old enough) and then they can make notes as to where there books are. When they are packing up for the week or the weekend, they can look at their book inventory and then decide whether they need to bring anything else with them for their other bedroom.

School Days, School Days

School books seem to be easier to lose than any other book your child might have on their shelves. But with book inventory software, children can easily see where their school books are too. Even if they are home and they can't find a book, they can access their inventory list online and see where they listed their books to be. If the book is still missing, the search can then be extended to see whether the book has truly been lost or if it might be somewhere they haven't looked yet.

As soon as a school book is a part of the child's life, it can be entered into the book inventory software. Then, as the book is given back to the teacher at the end of the year, the book can be taken off the list.

Keeping the Peace

No matter how easy or difficult the divorce is, book inventory software can be something both parents have access to. This way, they can both know what books their children have and which ones they should have with them at any time. In fact, notes can be made in the software program to help the child remember what classes the books are for - and to help the parents remember too.

With book inventory software, parents of children can keep track of books no matter where there child might be headed one week. And while this might not make a divorce any easier, it can make the chaos that goes with visitation a bit more manageable.

A New Way For Kids To Sit

2009-09-06T06:57:00.001-07:00

You may be entertaining the idea of getting your child a set of furniture to provide a spot where artwork of other projects can be created. There are also lots of dinette sets that work for having meals and providing extra room for you when you have lots of dinner guests of all sizes. If you want to give your child the room to be creative and encourage constructive play, then reconsider running our and getting a furniture set that has traditional wood, metal, or plastic seats.

Something new has been going on in classrooms that seems to be catching on. Some teachers have taken out the hard seats that they have tried to get students to stay in for years. They are replacing them with stability balls instead!

Stability or balance balls are those that are included in a number of exercise routines that have proven effective for people of all workout levels. In addition to adding resistance be requiring you to balance while you work out, they also reduce the impact on joints and sensitive backs.

Children have never been known for sitting still in their seats at school or anywhere else. The balls are placed in front of a desk at school and children are free to wiggle and fidget all they want. The balls have been shown to improve children's posture by making them balance themselves upright rather than slumping over as many of them tend to do in traditional styled seats.

Now, you can purchase seats that are made with a stability ball in the center for all sizes of children. Providing this type of seating at their work place will not only improve their posture and balance, it can be used for exercise, movement, and coordination. It also helps encourage children to remain in one spot for longer periods of time since they are free to move and comfortable.

You can purchase a desk or work center for your child that is sold separately and then buy small stability balls for them to sit on instead of buying furniture sets that include the seats. The stability balls come in a variety of bright colors so you can match them to the desk or other furniture if needed. Or you can use them to bring some cheerful color into the room.

When children first start to use these balls to sit on while they work, their muscles may tire after a short period of time and they should have a regular seat to switch to or take a break from work altogether to relax their muscles. Then, they will gradually be able to increase the time they spend on the balls.

One of the biggest improvements teachers have seen in their students since making the switch is an increase in concentration. Just remember to keep your child's stability ball well inflated and upgrade to a larger size as your child grows so that his/her feet are flat on the floor while the knees are bent.

How To Make Packing Easier

2009-09-05T19:42:00.001-07:00

For many of us, the most obvious way to get ready for relocation is to throw our belongings into a bunch of cartons, pack them up and ship them off. However, this type of approach can lead to frustration, disorganization and all sorts of problems. Rather than risk that, you can - and should - follow strategies to make things more efficient.

Below, we highlight each of these important steps so that the next time you have to do Brisbane removals, you'll be as prepared as possible.

#1: Inventory Everything -

Room by room, notebook in hand, make a list of everything that will be coming with you to your new home. What's the point of this? It's to make sure that you really know and realise just how many things you'll be packing up. It's amazing how easy it is to underestimate - or overestimate - the number of belongings you actually have. Putting everything down on paper helps put it in perspective.

#2: Get A Quote For Removal -

Once you know all of your requirements, initiate the process of obtaining removal quotes. You'll get a better idea about how much you'll have to spend to get your things from here to there. Doing this ahead of time also helps ensure that you get a fair, reasonable price. Since you'll have your inventory handy, you'll be able to tell the removalist precisely how many things you're packing.

#3: Give Away Or Sell The Things You Don't Want -

Go through the inventory list and circle or highlight unnecessary items. Throw a garage sale, post them online or otherwise toss them away. Why bring useless things with you? They'll just create unwanted clutter in your new home.

#4: Book The Removal -

In the midst of your garage sale and other planning, take a good hard look at the removal quotes you've received. After carefully considering all of your requirements, arrange a removal company offering you an ideal package based on your requirements. Having that detail out of the way will make going forward much easier.

#5: Find Out About Insurance -

Pitfalls in Building Relationships, Commitment and Love - Continuing With I

2009-09-04T08:56:00.001-07:00

We continue this series which discusses how to avoid the pitfalls in building interpersonal relationships, whether with family, coworkers, friends, or that special someone. Committed, loving relationships do not just happen. You should realize that there is no success secret, no checklist of things to do, and just as important things not to do for building such relationships. We will make some suggestions that focus on what to avoid. We actually have a double series of articles for the letter I. Our present focus is on impolite, indifferent, and infallible.

I is for impolite. Impoliteness is definitely real scourge of present-day life. How hard can it be to wait ten more seconds and hold the door open for someone surrounded by little kids? What is the difference between the Gay Nineties and today? In the Gay Nineties a woman might drop her handkerchief and a man would scoop it up. Sometimes this was the beginning of a beautiful relationship. Today a woman might drop her Kleenex (does anyone use a handkerchief anymore?). And a man, perhaps willing to launch a beautiful relationship, would bend down to scoop it up only to hear a shrill voice: "No, thank you. I'll get it myself. Male chauvinist pig.

I is for indifferent. Our unnamed and probably inexistant handkerchief dropper of the previous paragraph may be accused of many faults, but no one could say that she was indifferent. To some extent be like her; don't be indifferent. Do you see that bump on the log? Which bump on the log? Any bump on any log. Don't be a bump on a log; don't be indifferent. Be involved. You can make a difference and it does make a difference. People can know that you have been there and I'm not talking about the morning you forgot the deodorant. Making it happen is contagious.

I is for infallible. Conjugate infallible. I am not infallible. You are not infallible. He or she is not infallible. Get the idea. We are not... Mistakes happen. The only way to avoid making mistakes is to do nothing. When you think about it, doing nothing at all is one of the biggest mistakes you can make. I myself would not use a service offering a so-called success rate for doctors or surgeons. The way I look at it, some doctors and surgeons would avoid the most difficult cases to keep their percentage up. I would prefer taking the chance with a practitioner ready to attempt the difficult cases than to go with an infallible scaredy-cat.

I Love French Wine and Food - A White Chateauneuf-du-Pape

2009-09-04T04:57:00.001-07:00

If you are looking for fine French wine and food, consider the Rhone Valley region of southeastern France. You may find a bargain, and I hope that you'll have fun on this fact-filled wine education tour in which we review one the area's best-known wines, a white Chateauneuf-du-Pape that comes from some of the stoniest vineyards you'll ever see.

The Rhone Valley ranks second in acreage among France's eleven wine-growing regions. It's really a question of two separate areas with very different wines. The narrow northern Rhone Valley produces only a small fraction of the Rhone wines. Its major red grape is Syrah, and its major white variety is Viognier. Traditionally wines in the southern Rhone Valley are blended. For example, both the red and the white Chateauneuf-du-Pape AOC wine may include over a dozen different grape varieties. The white Chateauneuf-du-Pape reviewed below includes four varieties, White Grenache, Rousssane, Bourbuolenc, and Clairette. With the exception of Roussane, these are not considered particularly high-quality grapes. Many of the other permitted varieties are also pedestrian grapes. But Chateauneuf-du-Pape is certainly considered a fine wine. You will never see it on a $10 wine list. Only once in a while you will see it on a $15 wine list.

The village of Chateauneuf-du-Pape is home to about two thousand people and some very well-known French wines. During the Fourteenth Century seven French Popes made their home in nearby Avignon and they got their table wine from the town named new castle of the pope. You may want to visit the Musee des Outils de Vignerons Pere Anselme (The Father Anselm Museum of Winemakers Tools) or the ruins of the Chateau. The nearby city of Orange has a great Roman theatre and even an Arc de Triomphe, much less visited than its Parisian namesake.

Before reviewing the Chateauneuf-du-Pape wine here are a few suggestions of what to eat with indigenous wines when touring this beautiful region. Start with Soupe de Lentilles Proven?ale (Provencale Lentil Soup). For your second course savor Pates aux Coquillages (Seafood Pasta). And as dessert indulge yourself with Fougassette (Sweet Bread with Orange Flower Water).

OUR WINE REVIEW POLICY All wines that we taste and review are purchased at the full retail price.

Wine Reviewed Chateauneuf-du-Pape La Fiole Blanc 13% about $22.50

Let's start by quoting the marketing materials. Tasting Note: Pale gold; aromas of mineral and grapefruit, crisp and dry with a mineral flavor. Serving Suggestion: Serve with fish or seafood.

In the first sips I tasted honey and minerals. The wine was mildly sweet. The first pairing was with a Middle-Eastern dish called kube (or kibbe) consisting of ground beef in jackets made of crushed wheat, slow-cooked in a peppery tomato sauce. The wine tasted of grapefruit. It was nicely long and fairly powerful.

My next meal centered around a barbecued chicken breast in a caramelized sauce accompanied by potato salad and a Moroccan style tomato salsa with garlic that wasn't very spicy. The wine was sweet like many a Riesling. It went well with the chicken's sweetness. The acidity was light but increased as the meal went on. The Chateauneuf-du-Pape's predominant flavor was grapefruit. In the presence of a sweet but acidic, high-quality French style lemon pie the wine was round but weak.

The final meal was broiled salmon filet in a soy and honey sauce with brown rice and zucchini cooked in tomatoes. The wine's soft acidity was a great compliment to the softness of the fish. Once again grapefruit came out with the rice and zucchini combo. The wine's acidity went well with the acidity of the tomatoes.

The first cheese was a Mozzarella. The wine was round, forceful, and frankly wasted. With a yellow Cheddar the wine was fairly tasteless. It just didn't stand up to this fairly weak cheese.

Final verdict. I would buy this wine again but carefully watch what I pair it with. Never again would it be wasted with a pedestrian cheese. My idea of a great wine evening might be starting with this white Chateauneuf-du-Pape to accompany a salmon fillet followed by a red Chateauneuf-du-Pape with a leg of lamb or roast duck. And live a bit like those French Popes almost seven hundred years ago.

Short Sales in Phoenix Arizona - Benefits When Compared to Foreclosure

2009-09-03T20:58:00.001-07:00

If you live in the Phoenix Arizona area and are selling your home, you may want to discuss the possiblity of a short sale with a reputable realtor. Of course there are good points and bad points to nearly any type of transaction you choose, but you may find that this option is very beneficial to you and your family. This article will explain a little more in-depth, so that you better understand how this works.

No one likes to go through foreclosure. It destroys your credit and can make you feel embarrassed. In many instances, you will not be eligible to purchase another home for five years, which means you will have to rent. Short sales are not the perfect solution if your mortgage is pulling you under, but it is certainly better than the alternative in many situations. Here are a few of the advantages of this option:

Benefits of Short Sales:

As mentioned before, you won't have to face the embarrassment of being in foreclosure. You can maintain your dignity, knowing that you sold your home.

You will no longer have mortgage payments to make, unless you choose to do so.

Under Fannie Mae guidelines, you will most likely be able to purchase another home in only two years, instead of having to wait for five. Additionally, if your credit report shows no late payments past a 60 day time period, you may be eligible to purchase another home immediately.

With foreclosure, your rights as a homeowner are literally stripped away from you. You can forget purchasing anything with credit, as you will have absolutely no credit for ten years. An experienced Phoenix real estate agent can help you by clearly explaining your options, and how they work. If you choose one who works personally with you, you can be sure that they will support you and your best interest.

Obtaining the services of a realtor is beneficial when it comes to short sales. The agent will be paid by the lender, and will make certain to find a buyer for your home. If a professional can help you find the right buyer, they make a commission. With foreclosures, the agent makes no money so of course they would rather find a buyer for your home. To sum it all up, choosing this route is best for you as a homeowner, as well as the agent.

Do you have a home in the Phoenix area that you are about to lose, due to financial difficulties? Before you decide to go the foreclosure route, speak with a highly-qualified Arizona realtor. He/She can discuss all of the aspects of a short sale, and how it may be the perfect solution for you.
