Network Marketing Article – snippet

In Article Snippets on June 27, 2008 at 11:17 am

To succeed in network marketing you first must understand what it is. Network marketing is the marketing and selling of products and services mostly in an online environment. You can either sell products that you obtain through various affiliate programs or you can create and market your own products. The majority of network marketers make the mistake in thinking that this is all there is to network marketing.

If you truly want to succeed at network marketing … First and foremost you must understand that it isn’t about the products you are selling, it is about selling who you are. Overtime market demands are going to change, the products and services that you are going to offer will change. You are the only constant in this paradigm.

Think about when you go shopping, do you go just anywhere or are you going to a store that you know? If you are like most people, you are going to a store you know, that has a reputation that you can trust, that you have dealt with before. People are not going to buy products from you because of the product…

Secondly, you need to find products that there is a demand for. Don’t make the mistake that so many network marketers make in thinking that they want a product that has little competition. You want a product that there is a demand for already, you want a product that has competition on the market. The key is that you want to offer a product that works better then those other products. This is why the diet industry and health…

Five Element Acupuncture – Snippets

In Article Snippets on March 29, 2008 at 2:36 am

Chinese medicine focuses on the body and it’s alignment with the five energies or elements known as wood, earth, fire, water and metal. The organs of the body are all tied to a particular element. There characteristics help to establish which element thy are tied to. This element connection is important both internally and externally, for it is believed that a perfect balance of these elements within the body equals the highest level of health a person can achieve. An imbalance then leads to different ailments, pain and disease.

 

…The belief behind the five elements theory is that either when we are born or when we are very young we develop a weakness in one of our elements. As we grow this weakness has an impact on the other elements within our body. This base element, the weak element that we have had since we were children is seen as the root of our problems, it is the source of our imbalance…

 

 

With the entire basis of your treatment being focused on the causative factor which is the element that you have a weakness in, you can see why it is important the correct area be identified. To help them determine where you really need the help the acupuncturist has to take the time to talk to you, listen to you and observe you. They have to be able to figure out what are your primary symptoms and what the secondary symptoms are and then what element do you have a born or early childhood weakness of.

 

Witchcraft Spells – article snippet

In Article Snippets on March 29, 2008 at 2:34 am

What do you think of when you hear “witchcraft” and “spells?” Are you envisioning a haggard old woman with a wart on her nose and a scary cackle? Then Hollywood has been successful in convincing you that it what witches are. The truth though may surprise you. The truth is that anyone, including you can practice witchcraft. Spells are not as mysterious as most people want to believe they are either.

 

It is important that we stress the point right here that witchcraft is not Satanism. Witchcraft has more to do with living in harmony with the world around us and doing good then setting out to harm others. As a matter of fact the standard saying amongst witches is that “If it harms none, do what ye will.” Spiritually speaking Wicca offers insight and guidance to witchcraft. Know though this, all Wiccans are witches but not all witches are Wiccan.

 

 

Now casting the witchcraft spell is something else that there is a huge misconception about. You do not have to stand over a huge boiling cauldron… I believe it is called a pot. Now if you chose to use a pot as your cauldron you must only ever use it for the purpose of spell casting. You shouldn’t cast a spell in a pot, throw out the water and make spaghetti in it. There is a certain sacredness that belongs to each tool that you use.

 

… You must focus on the spell while you are performing it. The most powerful spells are the ones that you write yourself, using spells that someone else has written is wonderful to but if power is what you are after, write your own. Remember that whatever you are sending out into the universe is going to come back to you, so follow the “If it harm none, do what ye will.”

In Article Snippets on March 29, 2008 at 2:30 am

Understand when we are talking about alternative therapies we are talking about more natural and holistic healing therapies. … yoga, meditation, acupuncture, aromatherapy, massage and other herbal remedies.

 

These treatments can be used in conjunction with traditional therapies or by themselves. Here is a simple breakdown of a few of the alternative therapies that are recommended for multiple sclerosis.

Your diet is also extremely important, and it is a complimentary therapy that you need to take seriously. … Trying to eliminate foods that are highly processed and packaged aiming for foods that are fresh or frozen to help decrease the amount of toxins you take into your body, could possible help reduce flares ups and slow progression of the disease.

 

There are some people with MS that have also found that acupuncture helps to alleviate symptoms of pain, bladder control and muscle spasms. …visit someone that is trained and certified to perform acupuncture. There is not any scientific data to suggest that acupuncture is safe for people with MS, but sufferers of MS have found relief with this alternative treatment.

 

Massage is a wonderful alternative therapy that many people who have MS have found relief with. Regular massage therapy not only reduces stress and promotes relaxation it also helps reduce depression. Keep in mind that massage is generally safe for people with MS unless they have osteoporosis which is usually due to the treatments that you go through for MS.

 

Regardless of what alternative therapy you are considering to help treat your MS there are a few key questions to answer such as: What is the treatment, What does the treatment involve, How does it work, What are the risks, Are there any side effects, Is there any proof that the therapy works, How much is the therapy?

In Article Snippets on March 29, 2008 at 2:27 am

What is chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) and how can you treat it…

 

Chronic fatigue syndrome is a disorder that affects the mind and various systems within the body. The Center for Disease Control first recognized this syndrome in 1988. Unfortunately we do not know what causes CFS and there aren’t any specific tests that can be done to diagnose people with CFS. Doctors believe that it could be a combination of multiple triggers such as stress, viral infection, nutrient deficiency, toxins and hormone imbalances….

  

Current research is suggesting that what CFS is, is actually myalgic encephalomyelitis which is a disorder that affects the nervous, immune and endocrine systems. Several researchers believe that it could be a new form of polio.

 

…frustrating as it is to feel so tired that even the simplest of tasks are to exerting there are things that you can do to help treat CFS. There are medicines that can be prescribed to treat the various symptoms… no conventional treatment for it. This has many sufferers of CFS looking for alternative methods.

 

Supplements have been effective in the treatment of CFS.  Especially antioxidants, these nutrients fight off some of the possible triggers such as bacteria and viruses. Other supplements known to help in the treatment of CFS include B vitamins, Vitamin C, magnesium, sodium, zinc, L-carnitine, coenzyme Q-10, and essential fatty acids.

 Herbal remedies have been used successfully as well. Ginkgo biloba, ginseng, Eleutherococcus senticosus, Astragalaus membranaceus, and Withania somniferaSome help to strengthen the immune system and others work with red blood cells and increasing oxygen delivery improving overall body function. There is another alternative treatment… cognitive behavior therapy. CBT has helped many patients feel improvements in overall energy levels and the numbers of hours they were able to work per week. CBT has helped patients free their mind of negativity and unhelpful belief systems, helping them focus on the positive aspects of life and learning effective coping techniques.

Achieving Your Dreams!

In Article Snippets on March 29, 2008 at 2:19 am

We all want to improve our lives. There isn’t a person alive that at some point hasn’t had dreams and aspirations of what they wanted their life to be like. I am here to tell you that no matter what those dreams and aspirations are you can achieve them. The whole point is that you have to make it happen. Life doesn’t give free handouts.

 

This sentiment probably has not been put more succinctly then by Dianne Houston. She has been quoted as saying that “Only some people get what they want. These are the people who show up to get it.” Do not take this quote to mean that there is a hand out, showing up means that you are putting forth the effort.

 

It is a basic human truth that each and every one of us is motivated. Motivation really is a human trait.  The main problem that most people face though is that they do not really know what it is they want. Think about it, in the course of your life how many times have those dreams changed? Not sure, then sit down right now and make a list….

 

Once you know what your goal is, you need to be thankful. Be gracious for where you are and what you have. That is the key to getting what you want. The next step that you take should be to make a plan. That plan now needs to go into action. Think about a football game, the team that showed up to play wins. The team that just hung out on the field expecting to win looses….

 

Do not let the obstacles that life will put in the way discourage you from going after your dreams with diligence. Giving up will get you no where; learning from a failure and then improving will get you where you want to be. Make sure that you are on the team that came to play, the person that showed up to get what they want. Life is too short to sit on the sidelines or watch the grass grow in the middle of the field you and only you decide what your life will be.

 

 

 

 

DaVinci from a Christian Standpoint

In Article Snippets on March 6, 2008 at 9:47 pm

It is in great hope that you are reading this because you have read the novel by Dan Brown, “The Da Vinci Code,” and that it caused you to think about Jesus Christ, faith and Christianity. If for one moment this novel made you think about what it is you believe in, then this book served a purpose. There is no doubt that it has caused many heated debates since being released in 2003… going to take a look at several of the most talked about statements in the novel, and from a Christian standpoint, we will supply facts as to why those statements are inaccurate.

 

Jesus and Mary Magdalene

 

…Jesus lived during the first century of this era. The New Testament that talks about the life and death of Jesus, historians that were born during the same century wrote accounts of Jesus’ life and death, and a collection of Rabbinical writings as well as letters that were written around 96 AD make no mention of a marriage between Jesus and Mary or that there was a child. These documents were written by people that were followers as well as by people that did not believe in the miracle of Jesus…

 

The Gnostic Gospel

 

It is important that you have some background information about he Gnostic Gospel. They were discovered in 1945 at Nag Hammadi in Egypt. It is believed by many scholars that it was written approximately 150 years after Jesus. The person responsible for writing the “Gospel of Philip” is unknown and it is considered a non-Christian document.

 

Now there are many writings in the Gnostic Gospel itself that were written about the same time that seem to borrow names, ideas and concepts from the Christian New Testament…

 

The Dead Sea Scrolls and the Gnostic Gospel

 

The Dead Sea Scrolls are approximately 900 documents that are written in Hebrew, Aramaic and Greek. They were found in caves near Jerusalem in and ancient village called Qumran between the years of 1947 and 1956. The Dead Sea Scrolls contain some of the oldest copies of parts of the Old Testament. They also contain writings of a religious group called Essenes. This group was based in Israel in 200 BC and they lasted until 100 AD.

 

It has been the attempt of many to try to show there is a connection between Christianity and the Dead Sea Scrolls. They have even gone as far as to say that they are not the word of God, but instead the basis for the New Testament. Yet several sources that have read the scrolls state there is no mention of Jesus anywhere in the Dead Sea Scrolls…

 

… As a Christian you know that they New Testament is a continuation of the Old Testament, and in reading it you will notes that there are several references to the Old Testament including details about what the life of the land was like in Israel during the first century…

Da Vinci was a Pagan

 To disprove this statement we need look no further then to the first biography written about Leonardo Da Vinci by Giorgio Vasari. This book was published in 1550, and in it Da Vinci repented his sins and confessed that Christianity was were his faith lie near the end of his life. It is stated in the biography that Da Vinci desired “‘to be informed of Catholic practice and of the good and holy Christian religion, then, after many tears, he repented and confessed.” It goes on to say that in this document that was penned in front of witnesses and stated by Da Vinci himself that he “commends his soul to Almighty God” (not the goddess), “to the Blessed Virgin Mary” (not Magdalene), and “to Saint Michael and all the angels and saints in paradise.” – “The Truth Behind The Da Vinci Code,” by Richard Abanes, page 65.    

Deforestation in Haiti

In Article Snippets on February 20, 2008 at 6:35 pm

Haiti Water Supply and Deforestation

Haiti is one of the largest islands in the Caribbean and it is also one of the poorest countries in the Western hemisphere. This overpopulated poverty stricken country is facing an ever bigger problem with its water supply. This is due in large part to the vast deforestation that is happening in the country.

Currently Haiti is left with about 1% of its forests. Another sad fact is that there are about 75 rivers that have just disappeared from the country in the matter of one generation. Haiti is the most water poor country in the world. This makes Haiti not only a threat to itself but to the surrounding areas as well.

The deforestation that is going on puts this already fragile country in an even more difficult position facing floods in the its urban areas with even normal rain fall, much less impending hurricanes. When a land lacks forests the land then is less capable of intercepting, retaining and transporting precipitation.

The lack of forests cause the rain then to cause flash flooding and soil erosion because the land is unable to trap the water, instead what happens is the water runs off and this happens at a faster pace then if the water was trapped and moved in the groundwater system.

This then affects the amount of rainfall a region gets. The lack of ground moisture being evaporated and moved into the atmosphere decreases precipitation. The water that should be moving through the soil and trees and back into the atmosphere is displaced into the ocean instead.

The increased deforestation coupled with the rainfall during the growing seasons has sent the much needed topsoil to be washed away and it has silted up the rivers below. This then slows the river flow and has since the mid 1960s by about 80% of what the fiver flow used to be. This decreases the drinking water supply. The heavy sedimentation in the fertile floodplains makes drainage of the land difficult which then increases the salinity of the soil and groundwater.

The reason for the deforestation that has lead to increase soil erosion which has then lead to an inadequate water supply is because of agriculture. This is not a new epidemic but one that started centuries ago. With the first colonial plantation system and the intense monocropping of exported goods such as cotton, tobacco, sugarcane, coffee and indigo and of course the timber. Through all this there has not been enough effort made to re-stabilize the land.
