By Carol Solomon Ever wonder if you have a serious problem with binge eating? In a recent issue of the Harvard Mental Health Letter, I read a feature article about the treatment of bulimia and binge eating. Bulimia is defined as 2 or more episodes of binge eating (consuming a large amount of food in 2 hours or less) at least twice a week for 3 months. These episodes may be followed by vomiting or purging (with laxatives or diuretics) and may alternate with fasting and compulsive exercising. People who suffer from bulimia often view this behavior as a shameful secret. Binge Eating Disorder (binging that is not followed by vomiting, fasting or exercise) has gotten more attention recently since it is being considered for inclusion as a psychiatric diagnosis. The criteria are tentatively listed as a condition that causes serious distress with at least 3 of the following symptoms occurring at least 2 days a week for 6 months: eating very fast eating until uncomfortably full eating when not hungry eating alone feeling disgusted or guilty afterward Since most of the population has probably engaged in these eating behaviors at one time or another, I guess it comes down to the frequency and severity of the problem. You can be a binge eater, but you would have to be binging quite regularly to be considered to have Binge Eating Disorder. Many people engage in some of these behaviors all the time. People who live alone often eat alone. And while eating when you arent hungry is not the most satisfying experience, sometimes it is just an ingrained habit. You do not have to be overweight to be a binge eater. Many people with binge eating problems think they are overweight or are worried that they will become seriously overweight. Dieting does not necessarily stop the binging and is often viewed as being part of the problem rather than the solution. This article pointed out that the body resists dieting by slowing metabolism and increasing appetite, commonly accompanied by an intense preoccupation with food, more binging, anxiety and depression. If you are struggling with bulimia or severe binge eating problems, seek help and get the support you deserve. Dont keep it a secret. You do not need to be heroic and suffer alone. If you engage in some of the binge eating behaviors, join the club and keep reading . . . You can learn to change all of these behaviors, even mild to moderate binge eating by listening to your body, eating mindfully and being kind to yourself.

By Susan Friedmann Market research is one of the most valuable selling tools a show organizer has. Up to the minute, accurate market data arms you with the type of valuable information you need to sell your show to potential exhibitors, including who is attending your show, how well your exhibitors did at last years show, and what type of sales numbers resulted from participating in the event. Savvy exhibitors — those that can contribute meaningfully to the success of your show — will want to know this type of information. Any information you provide to potential exhibitors must be both timely and accurately. Unfortunately, hiring a market research team, especially on an annual basis, can be an expensive proposition. Doing the market research yourself can be time consuming and frustrating. What if there was a way to streamline the process, making it effortless and efficient for both you and your customers? Enter the internet. Trade show organizers have been woefully behind the curve when it comes to exploiting the internets potential for market research. As the Online Expo becomes more and more of an industry presence, it is imperative that show organizers incorporate web-based elements into traditional shows to accommodate exhibitor needs, especially as they pertain to market research. The transition to a more virtual society has creating an expectation of instantaneous, accurate information — an expectation that we need to meet if we are going to survive. Here are five techniques you can use to meet this expectation: - Constantly Gather Information: Market research is not a once-a-year phenemeon. The dynamic nature of the marketplace means that new exhibitors are constantly setting up shop, while other companies that have exhibited with you for years may run into financial difficulty. Use Google or other new-alert programs to e-mail you when any of your exhibitors make news — their prosperity (or lack thereof!) may affect your show. At the same time, monitor news related to your shows location, the demographics related to likely attendees, and other items of interest. Make a commitment to reach out to your exhibitors at least quarterly via your website or targeted e-mails. Invite recipients to participate in a poll, answer a survey, or give feedback. Many will, especially if the poll, survey, or feedback form is quick and easy to navigate. This gives you a steady stream of data throughout the year. - Invite Open Communication: Exhibitors and potential exhibitors should always know how to reach you. An easily navigable website is a must for all businesses, but imperative for show organizers. Consider having direct links to frequently asked questions, easily found contact options, and even live help via e-mail chat for the crunch time just before the show. - Create Discussion Forums: Discussion forums, whether theyre constructed as a bulletin board or group format, offer a great opportunity to invite feedback, ask your exhibitors questions, and brainstorm new show features. Any group should be constructed with an RSS and XML feed so that it can be easily picked up by news aggregators, ensuring the widest possible audience is invited to participate in the discussion. Youll need an employee to monitor the group on a regular basis, which includes filtering out spam and inappropriate messages, but the data gathered will be well worth the result. - Explore Other Communities: Youre in the exhibiting business, but your customers arent. Take the time to visit their internet hangouts — industry specific bulliten boards, discussion groups, and e-mail lists. You can either actively participate or simply passively read whats going on — this is known as lurking, and is frowned upon in some communities, accepted in others. Either way, youll be presented with a front row seat of whats going on in your customers industry, and gain a deeper understanding of their needs. Occassionally the talk will turn to industry conventions and shows, and that can be a very valuable learning experience. - Provide Content Rich Incentives: Attendees will only visit your website or participate in polls if you offer them something of value in exchange for their time. This could be educational — content rich articles outlining some of the how-tos of effective exhibiting, for example — or social. The new generation of exhibitors fully expects there to be a social element to their web interactions, be it a busy discussion list or a forum always filled with heated debate. It will cost you little, if anything, to provide these items, yet will help you keep exhibitors engaged with and committed to your show. Of course, these techniques work best when they augment traditional market research methods. Nothing can replace actually getting out on the show floor and talking face to face with your exhibitors. People may divulge a great deal of information over the net, but often dont feel like they know someone until they meet them IRL - In Real Life. Written by Susan A.

By L Scott Harrell Becoming a bounty hunter shouldnt be all that hard right? I mean I’ve boiled it down to 9 easy steps 1. Find a quality bounty hunter school or training. 2. Get licensed, if required. 3. If you are unsure if licensing is required, look it up. 4. Get the essential gear and support systems in place. 5. Market your services. 6. If successful, find and arrest the fugitive, then take him to jail. 7. If successful, invoice and collect for services from client. 8. Repeat steps 6 through 8 as often as necessary. 9. Find more bounty hunter training and improve your skills. Again, repeat as often as necessary. Actually, I wish it were that easy but it is not- though not impossible as many would have you imagine. Since I dont know anything about you or your experience, I am going to assume that you are starting from scratch… no experience with the bail bond industry, skip tracing, taking people into custody, or finding a bounty hunter job. With that in mind I am going to give you the best advice you will get in our industry: Commit right now to becoming a lifelong student of the bail recovery tradecraft, which means finding a mentor, taking courses, reading books, research, and networking! This is not just for the short-term but also for as long as you intend to find fugitives for business or for pleasure. I commit to at least 5 hours a week to learning more about some aspect of this business; improving my marketing skills, staying abreast of the changing climate of our industry, studying new methods of skip tracing, etc; each are extremely valuable topics to pursue. Competency is developed from the study and practice of these skills. Competency leads to success! But as I said in my last blog post about bounty hunting, finding the right school is of paramount importance. No other single decision made by someone wanting to learn to become a bounty hunter is so crucial! And finding the right course can be tough! You have to consider a lot of options and weed through the rip-off courses (and there are more than a few) to find a truly great bail recovery course. Ask about the training director’s validity and/or background… if they get offended or defensive, that would be a good sign to stay away. Pick their brain a little- does what they have to say give you cause for concern or does something feel not quite right? Walk away if something is wrong.. Ultimately a variety of courses and/or books from a few reputable companies would be in your best interest- this is a complicated business and the “pros” all tend to approach the industry a little bit differently and none of us are able to cover everything 100%; it would not hurt to expose yourself to as much as you feel comfortable. Lastly, I want to leave you with this- having dealt with thousands upon thousands of people asking the most frequent questions about getting started in bail enforcement I find that the one singular cause of frustration and eventual failure is that new people are too busy trying to reinvent the wheel rather than enlisting the help of an investigator who has been in the field a while or availing themselves of their training programs. Give yourself a fighting chance and start with Step #1 rather than halfway down the list. You’ll be glad you did. L. Scott Harrell is a private investigator and principal of CompassPoint Investigations, an investigative agency with offices in the Southeast United States. He is a noted speaker, writer and educator in the field of fugitive apprehension.

By Milos Pesic What could scare your child more than the Boogieman? A fall from his bed! You may be able to put him to sleep by reading him bedtime stories, singing lullabies, or rocking him gently, but can you stop worrying long enough to have a good nights sleep as well? Child bed safety rails may not assure your little one that the Boogieman is a myth, but it can assure both of you that he wont fall off his bed. There are several child bed safety rails available in the market. Before buying a particular one, it is imperative that you go over the product description to make sure that the child bed safety rails you intend to buy fit the bed that you are going to attach it to. There are products that are supposed to be attached to the top of the mattress and not adjacent to it. The purpose for this is to avoid the incidence of your child being caught between the bed and the child bed safety rails. The other type of child bed safety rails would require you to attach them at the sides of the bed. Some products from this type are admittedly unsafe for use because it offers the chance for children to become entrapped between the mattress and the child bed safety rails. However, there are some products that provide a snug fit leaving no space between the bed and the rails. There are also child bed safety rails that guard both sides of the bed. These are most useful to use if the childs bed is in the center of the room or in the absence of a wall side. Most of these products are attached together from under the mattress, giving it a snug and an unmovable fit. This particular mechanism eliminates the chance of the child to roll between the bed and the child bed safety rails. Even if the child bed safety rails are designed to prevent any accidents to happen during bedtime, it is ironic that a lot of reported deaths and injuries in children are related to the use of these products. These cases were either due to the entrapment of the children between the bed and the child bed safety rails or their slipping through the bars or mesh of the rails. The study on these rails-related cases has caused parents to think twice about using these products for their children. However, the number of deaths and injuries from falls are more alarming. Child bed safety rails are the angels that they are created to be, but letting them function as such depends on how well you choose the products. They should be able to take care of your child on his most vulnerable hours. Milos Pesic is a successful webmaster and owner of popular and comprehensive Child Safety information site.

By John Barrington If you suffer with annoying, minor complaints, year after year, and your life miserable, then the following remedies may help you. The Many Uses Of Tea Tree Oil Or as it is sometimes known as “The Wonder From Down Under”, which as you would imagine a native tree from Australia. Technical name Melaleuca Alternifolia, which would not lead you to assume the name of “Tea Tree”! The tree grows in the swamplands and apparently there are more than thirty varieties of this tree, but only one that is the supplier of this marvellous healing oil. The oil is actually extracted from the tree’s leaves by a distillation process. An Australian scientist, one, Mr. A. Penfold, discovered the remedial properties of Tea Tree leaves, thus paving the way for the many and diverse uses of the oil. Today the oil is used in creams, shampoos etc. For many people it is an ideal emergency standby. Tea Tree Oil and Athletes Foot With a complaint called Athlete’s Foot, I have met people who are not seriously energetic, and certainly not athletes, but still have this complaint! In earlier days, it was often suggested that the prolonged use of canvass gym shoes used for sport that may have been one of the causes. Today it is often being blamed on the world-wide use of Trainers. Whatever the causes, it is actually a skin fungus. The common and irritating (literally), itching associated with Athletes Foot can be alleviated by using the amazing and versatile Tea Tree Oil. Tea Tree Oil has proved wonderfully successful, as an alternative remedy. You just need to add 30 to 40 drops of the oil to a small amount of water, or Olive Oil, and soak the foot for about ten minutes. Do this regularly and you’ll soon see an improvement Toe Nail Fungus Again on the subject of feet, if you or anyone you know suffers from the distressing complaint of toe nail fungus then, Tea Tree Oil is a good alternative treatment for getting rid of the fungus. Use cotton wool with a few drops of the oil and dab just under the rim of the nail, where the fungus is. It is recommended that you do this three times a day where possible. All of these treatments are natural, and therefore do not contain any drugs or chemicals, which makes it a safe way to treat these common ailments. An Alternative Treatment for Boils. There are many reasons for a boil to arrive, which can be anything from poor hygiene to a skin infection via stress. There are so many causes that you would be hard pressed to isolate the reason. They can, however, be treated with a natural alternative. Yes, you’ve guessed it, our old and valuable friend, Tea Tree Oil. The easiest way to use this is to wash the area of the location of the boil(s), then apply a Tea Oil cream, which has the Tea Tree Oil property of being an antiseptic. Apply the cream regularly using cotton wool or lint. If you have other symptoms, such as feeling feverish, it would, at times, be best to consult your Doctor. As you can see, there are many uses that Tea Tree Oil can be put to as alternative remedy, other problems such as the common cold, sun burn, nits in the hair and so on, so if you have a problem, see whether you can use this “miracle” alternative remedy. Magnetic Therapy In the many years of our civilisation, natural magnets, known as Lodestones, were used in healing processes. Using historical facts with today’s technology, we are able to access the very latest and suitable healing and relief properties of magnets. Even hospitals use Magnetic Therapy to ease patients aches and pains. There are many, many magnetic products from body wraps, magnetic insoles for shoes, a magnetic underlay for your bed etc. However, the most popular and easy to use are the magnetic bracelets, worn either on the wrist or ankle. The British Health Journal published an article in December 2004, stating that they found encouraging results for osteoarthritis, using magnetic therapy, to help in reducing the severity of pain. Hip and knee joints are particularly eased in many patients by the use of magnetic bracelets. There are many companies that specialise in supplying magnetic products, but care must be taken in getting the correct power of the magnets concerned. The measure of the strength of a magnet is measured by the technical term of “Gauss”, and it is recommended that you should have at least 800 “Gauss” strength to be effective. In fact the range of magnets can be as high as 3600 “Gauss”. Remember, that if you have one bracelet at 800 “Gauss”, then obviously two, say one for your wrist and one for your ankle, you will be receiving 160 “Gauss”. Also bear in mind that you should not use magnets if you have a pacemaker, or are pregnant, and have had recent surgery.

This has arisen because his partner had bad side effects from prescription drugs for what are minor, but irritating ailments. The information that he has collected, has proved to be very effective in curing, or alleviating her symptoms.

By Virginia Bola, PsyD Take a night off from the television sports and the sitcom reruns. Buy a simple family tree chart at the drug store and start to work on filling in the blanks. The first two or three tiers, the most recent generations, are usually pretty easy because they are filled with people you have known all of your life. Chances are that your partner has never met many of your relatives and vice versa. Take time to describe your family characters to each other. Every family has their oddballs and their black sheep. Enjoy their exploits, knowing that each of us is, at least partially, formed by our own personal histories. As you move back in time to generations you never knew, it can be fun to figure out how to get accurate information. Is there a grandmother or a great aunt somewhere who can help you fill in the holes in your chart? Plan a visit or a telephone call. They will be delighted to forage into their past, often more vividly remembered than the dull years of their aging lives. When you have exhausted your living resources, look outside the family. There are Internet sites on genealogy, search agencies, public record repositories and, of course, the extensive resources of the Mormon Church. Each discovery you make expands you as a person and, when it is a joint task, it also expands and depends the mutual understanding at the heart of your relationship.

By Fred Davis Did I hear you correctly? You’re just “starting out” in the rewarding (and often exhausting) hobby of gardening? Think you’d like to grow your own vegetables, instead of limiting your choices to that natural-looking, neatly-arranged assortment of mostly foreign grown produce in the supermarket? Are you concerned that, in all likelihood, most supermarket vegetable offerings may contain substances (additives, pesticides, and other chemicals used in their production) over which you have absolutely no control, and that you’d prefer not to serve to your family? Then you’re among a growing number of consumers with a yearning to take control over the quality and content of at least some of the food consumed, and have made a firm decision to grow their own. Below are some helpful tips for the health-conscious neophyte veggie gardener. . .tips not cast in stone, but ones that will improve your chances of success and satisfaction. First, your new garden’s location. Most vegetables grow and mature best in full, uninterrupted sunlight. You’ve probably noticed that the big, profitable market-growers don’t have too many trees in and around their production fields. Eight to ten mid-summer hours is preferable, but that may be a bit difficult for many home-gardeners. Try for an absolute minimum of six full hours of direct sunshine during the brightest part of the day. Save the shady spot in your yard for the hammock. For the beginning vegetable grower, 650 to 1,000 square feet of space is manageable. Be careful not to bite off more than you can comfortably chew! If you find you need more space, you can always expand the following year. If your new garden space is currently lawn or weeds, here’s a word or two of caution: tilled into the soil, crabgrass, Bermuda grass, dandelions, and many other aggressive weed species will re-grow from the tiniest fragment and quickly return to haunt any gardener. Take the time to remove all weeds — leaf, stem and root — before starting the garden. Most experts correctly recommend that you “peel” off the top two or three inches of turf before you begin preparing the soil to receive valuable seeds or transplants. And you should know that rototilling a patch of lawn is probably the most common and tragic mistake made by overly-enthusiastic novice gardeners. Soil preparation is next. Don’t begin until the ground is drained well enough that a handful of soil squeezed into a lump breaks apart when dropped from about chin-high. Resist the temptation to disturb soil that’s gooey and sticks together. I’ve always preferred to prepare a new garden soil with a spade. . .and I like to drive that spade completely to the “hilt” and turn my soil upside-down — literally. That’s ten to twelve inches deep. Homeowner-size rototillers rarely have the ability to cultivate any deeper than four to six inches. Not enough! Having said that, Ive never been a fan or proponent of double-digging to the oft-proclaimed depth of 16 to 24 inches. Realistically, root systems of the overwhelming majority of common vegetables perform admirably in improved soils cultivated to a depth of a foot or so. Exhausting — and frequently discouraging — double-digging is not for me! Soil that’s been lawn or field weeds, and hasn’t been cultivated for several years, is probably dirt-poor, so to speak. As you turn your new food-growing plot upside-down, mix in organic material such as compost or sterilized cow or horse manure to make it rich, deep and loamy. Three or four inches worked in deeply would be great! Peat moss can be used to break up heavy clay soils but should not be relied upon to add nutrition or beneficial biology to your soil. Peat moss is quite literally nutritionally and biologically dead and adds nothing of any lasting benefit to the soil. Now’s the time for a soil test. A mailer and complete instructions are available at your local Cooperative Extension Service office. Cost for a test is in the range of about $12. . .good insurance for improving your chances of success right from the start! While at the Extension, ask about their selection of very helpful publications to help you get off on the right foot. Most are free. Select your seeds, sets, transplants, and roots carefully and, based on your preferences, availability and quality. At nurseries or garden centers, never settle for tall, spindly vegetable transplants that are root bound, or appear to have been neglected in their tiny containers, or ones that have already begun to bloom or have set fruit. Those are “dead-end” — and the furthest thing from a bargain. Make your purchases early enough in the season to ensure strong, stocky plants that have a solid, healthy appearance and color. Reject any transplants that have excessively curled leaves, and those showing signs of nutritional deficiency (bronzing or yellowing of lower leaves, for example). And never accept young veggie plants from displays infested with aphids or small, winged, “gnats” or moths. Most nurseries and garden centers will carry one or more lines of acceptable quality packaged seeds. Personally, I get my seeds from well-known and reliable local sources when possible, and I always stay away from the bargain racks at markets and those high-volume, high-traffic big-box stores. I like my seed fresh, and I take comfort in the assurance of optimal, carefully controlled storage conditions. Johnnys Selected Seeds of Winslow, Maine (http://www.johnnyseeds.com) is, in my opinion, a good place to start. Fertilizer is, of course, an important consideration. I prefer to avoid use of bagged, granular, non-natural mixtures for use in soil intended for producing my food. Yes, you can use the recommended 10-10-10 (a “balanced” commercial plant food), but for me, the jury is still out on the long-term health consequences of non-natural fertilizers and plant food. In my mind, a safer choice would be an organic mixture of naturally-occurring plant nutritional elements available at most large farm-’n-gardens and garden centers. Always follow directions printed on the package and the recommendations included in the results of your soil test. You’ll have a better grasp of just how much fertilizer and lime to apply once you have those results in-hand. Get the recommended fertilizer and any other suggested amendments thoroughly tilled-in a few days before you actually sow your seeds or plunk in your transplants. There is actually more to achieving real success in the home vegetable patch. But now you have a basis from which to begin. You might like to read an 8-part series on vegetable gardening beginning at http://www.HillGardens.com/veggie-1.htm. So, as soon as spring arrives, off you go! Enjoy your new garden — and keep a stiff upper lip, a smile on your face and a song in your heart! One final thought: don’t be afraid to ask questions. A successful neighborhood gardener is a tremendous resource. So also is the local library. And your state’s Cooperative Extension Service can put you in touch with a Master Gardener or two for some first-rate and accurate local gardening assistance. While you’re at it, why not consider becoming a Master Gardener yourself? The Extension offers courses; the price is right; times are convenient; instruction is by top-notch professionals; and then you’ll be the expert — and successful! Hey!…what’s wrong with that?

By Kirrily D Dear Tips on Target Marketing for Small Business Imagine there are 100 potential prospects for your business in a room and you could select only 3 of them to become clients. Do you know the questions you would ask to identify the ideal 3? This question is posed as part of our quiz “Lead Generation & Conversion: Are You Winning?. We often ask this question when helping business owner-operators plan their marketing strategy. Their response is often preceded by a long pause. Just when you thought you knew everything about your clients, it appears theres more to know. Potential Clients A potential client is anyone who might possibly buy your product or service. For example, a recruitment business may define a potential client as “any business that needs a temp”, or a tea manufacturer may say “anyone who drinks tea”. In both of these examples the definition of “potential clients” is correct. However, it provides a shaky foundation for your marketing strategy. You need to push your thinking further. Become a Sea Eagle Sea eagles are very savvy birds. Essentially any fish in the sea is a potential meal for them yet they don’t dive after every fish they see. Why not? They know there is a limit to their energy and resources so they need to wisely pick out fish that will maximize the return on the energy expended during the catch. White bait is too small and marlins are too big. Small and medium businesses also have limited resources. Are you going to wildly dive after every opportunity you see or wisely select those catches that have a good return? If your limited marketing budget is going to deliver results, you need to focus all of your activities on your ideal clients. Ideal Clients Ideal clients are a subset of your potential clients. Ideal clients are those prospects who will provide you with the maximum return on your marketing investment. The challenge is to establish some specific and observable criteria to clearly separate your potential and ideal clients. Here are some working examples to get you thinking. Recruitment firm: Potential clients - “any business that needs a temp” Ideal clients - Located within 5 km radius, has an ongoing requirement for at least 3 temps, is adding at least 5 new staff each year, professional services industry Tea Manufacturer: Potential clients - “anyone who drinks tea” Ideal clients - cash rich DINK’s, inner city, socially / environmentally conscious, middle / upper management Can you see how you could walk into a room of 100 people and ask specific questions about these criteria to identify your ideal clients? Another interesting exercise is to ask everyone on your team the question that we have posed and see what answers they come back with. It will tell you very quickly if you need to up skill and train your team to become more effective at spotting sales opportunities. http://www.eyeswideopen.com.au/ Kirrily Dear is the Founder and Development Director of Eyes Wide Open.

By Anthony Smith Luke 17:20-17:24 Jesus Christ. The First, The Last, The Eternal. Grace be to you and peace from God the Father, and from our Lord Jesus Christ, Who gave himself for our sins, that he might deliver us from this present evil world, according to the will of God and our Father: To whom be glory for ever and ever. Amen. There are many times in our lives where we ask ourselves the question;What is my purpose in Life? And there are some who make a living, telling others exactly what it is. Many write books covering the subject and others make movies and presentations, but none really address the answer very clearly. Haven you seen time after time children killing themselves because they say that there is no purpose in their lives? The demands of this life time and especially of this upcoming generation is weighing down many a persons spirit, cutting them to the bone, not leaving them any recourse but to go with the flow, being swept away with peer pressure and company abuse. So what is the answer, is it in a book, a movie, a presentation or a single mans idea of life? No, The answer is in Jesus. Lets read a little Scripture and look at the Son of Man. Luke 17:20-24, And when he was demanded of the Pharisees, when the kingdom of God should come, he answered them and said, The kingdom of God cometh not with observation: Neither shall they say, Lo here! or, lo there! for, behold, the kingdom of God is within you. And he said unto the disciples, The days will come, when ye shall desire to see one of the days of the Son of man, and ye shall not see it. And they shall say to you, See here; or, see there: go not after them, nor follow them.For as the lightning, that lighteneth out of the one part under heaven, shineth unto the other part under heaven; so shall also the Son of man be in his day. Counselors, psychriacrist and others say they know what people need, but they never mention Jesus. Jesus, The Son of Man, Son of God, Wonderful, Counselor, The mighty God, The Everlasting Father, The Word, The Prince of Peace, The Lord of The Sabbath, The Christ, The Seeker of the Lost, The Avenger, The Rewarder, The First, The Last, The Eternal, The Faithful Witness,The First Begotten of the Dead, The prince of the Kings of the Earth, The Bright and Shining Star, The Alpha, The Omega, The First, The Last, The Morning Star, The Holder of The Key of David, and the Amen. Man writing book after book explaining what our purpose is in this life, giving us, theology, terminology, making trees, animals and even man gods to pray to and seek healing from. False hope, false doctrine, Idol worship and man science. Trying to explain our origin from science, evolution and revolution, new wave religions that can neither hear nor answer prayer. Mankind building up man as a demigod, searching our purpose from the stars and from the Big Bang Theory. Mat 11:27 All things are delivered unto me of my Father: and no man knoweth the Son, but the Father; neither knoweth any man the Father, save the Son, and he to whomsoever the Son will reveal him. Matthew 11:27 is a perfect place to start finding your purpose on this earth. You must be known of The Father, you must be recognized by the All Mighty, without Him there is no purpose in your life, except to die and be judged. Is your purpose in life to posses? James 4:2 Ye lust, and have not: ye kill, and desire to have, and cannot obtain: ye fight and war, yet ye have not, because ye ask not. Jer 17:11 As the partridge sitteth on eggs, and hatcheth them not; so he that getteth riches, and not by right, shall leave them in the midst of his days, and at his end shall be a fool. Luke 12:19-20 And I will say to my soul, Soul, thou hast much goods laid up for many years; take thine ease, eat, drink, and be merry. But God said unto him, Thou fool, this night thy soul shall be required of thee: then whose shall those things be, which thou hast provided? The Bible says no. [Ref.Jam_1:6, Jam_1:7; Job_27:8-10, Job_35:12; Psa_18:41, Psa_66:18, Psa_66:19; Pro_1:28, Pro_15:8; Pro_21:13, Pro_21:27; Isa_1:15, Isa_1:16; Jer_11:11, Jer_11:14, Jer_14:12; Mic_3:4; Zec_7:13;] Is our purpose in life to receive Glory from our name and position in life? John 7:18 He that speaketh of himself seeketh his own glory: but he that seeketh his glory that sent him, the same is true, and no unrighteousness is in him. 1Co 3:21 Therefore let no man glory in men. For all things are yours; 2Co 12:6 For though I would desire to glory, I shall not be a fool; for I will say the truth: but now I forbear, lest any man should think of me above that which he seeth me to be, or that he heareth of me. Gal 5:26 Let us not be desirous of vain glory, provoking one another, envying one another. Phi 3:18-19 (For many walk, of whom I have told you often, and now tell you even weeping, that they are the enemies of the cross of Christ:Whose end is destruction, whose God is their belly, and whose glory is in their shame, who mind earthly things.) Well the Bible says no, mans glory is fading and foolish to try to achieve. Is our purpose in life to gain riches? Jesus said; Children, how hard is it for them that trust in riches to enter into the kingdom of God! the deceitfulness of riches Luke 16:11 If therefore ye have not been faithful in the unrighteous mammon, who will commit to your trust the true riches? 1Ti 6:17 Charge them that are rich in this world, that they be not high-minded, nor trust in uncertain riches, but in the living God, who giveth us richly all things to enjoy; James 5:2 Your riches are corrupted, and your garments are motheaten. Rev 18:15-17 The merchants of these things, which were made rich by her, shall stand afar off for the fear of her torment, weeping and wailing, And saying, Alas, alas, that great city, that was clothed in fine linen, and purple, and scarlet, and decked with gold, and precious stones, and pearls! For in one hour so great riches is come to nought. And every shipmaster, and all the company in ships, and sailors, and as many as trade by sea, stood afar off, Well again the Bible says no. So then you ask, What is our purpose in life and who is this Son of Man, Jesus Christ? The answer is simple; Romans12:1 I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service. Our purpose in Life is to be a living sacrifice to God, to seek His Glory, His Wisdom, His Knowledge, His Acceptance as Children of The Almighty. Our purpose in Life is to Serve as our Saviour Served. Then can we also say that our purpose in life is not to be subject to ordinances? Col 2:20-23 Wherefore if ye be dead with Christ from the rudiments of the world, why, as though living in the world, are ye subject to ordinances, (Touch not; taste not; handle not; Which all are to perish with the using;) after the commandments and doctrines of men? Which things have indeed a shew of wisdom in will worship, and humility, and neglecting of the body; not in any honor to the satisfying of the flesh. Can we also say then, that this Son of Man is a living word from God that is a guide to righteousness, to Glory, to Honor, to Life, not as we know it but a life eternal in Spirit and not in the flesh? A regenerative Spirit that leads us to God? Mat 13:41 The Son of man shall send forth his angels, and they shall gather out of his kingdom all things that offend, and them which do iniquity; Mat 18:11 For the Son of man is come to save that which was lost. Mat 19:28 And Jesus said unto them, Verily I say unto you, That ye which have followed me, in the regeneration when the Son of man shall sit in the throne of his glory, ye also shall sit upon twelve thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel. Mat 20:28 Even as the Son of man came not to be ministered unto, but to minister, and to give his life a ransom for many. Jesus, The Son of Man, Son of God, Wonderful, Counselor, The mighty God, The Everlasting Father, The Word, The Prince of Peace, The Lord of The Sabbath, The Christ, The Seeker of the Lost, The Avenger, The Rewarder, The First, The Last, The Eternal, The Faithful Witness, The First Begotten of the Dead, The prince of the Kings of the Earth, The Bright and Shining Star, The Alpha, The Omega, The First, The Last, The Morning Star, The Holder of The Key of David, and the Amen. Seek out the Son of Man while He still may be Found and know your purpose in Life.

By Jack Zenert As with any new things, it is very easy for us to become enamored in the excitement we experience with something never available to us before. Internet marketing is no exception. Internet Marketing has obvious advantages for commerce and business in general, but internet marketing does have its limitations. It is also easy for us to assume that a new product or technology can do more than it really can. Following are some factors to consider what internet marketing is not. First to consider is that internet marketing is not a replacement for the traditional means of advertising and marketing and selling. Assume for a moment that your customer is looking to buy a diamond ring for someone special. They go online, browse through picture after picture, find some really beautiful and eligible pieces, and that’s where they stop. they can’t feel that ring, nor can they take a close look at the diamond. There are significant limitations online. Buyers have only a limited scope of what the merchandise will be like when they physically possess it. With Internet marketing there is always chances of things not working correctly. Nearly everyone who conducts any form of business or shopping online has experienced the temporary unavailability of a website. The site goes down, and you can’t get your business done when you had planned. Furthermore, you may not even get an indication as to when the site will be operational again. It can be a very frustrating part of the e-commerce world. Another fact of internet marketing that many fail to consider is that it is not a get rich quick scheme. True, many entrepreneurs have entered this lucrative market and been very successful. However, when you compare the number who have had such success, with all the businesses who have failed or never really taken off online, you will find that the overnight millionaires are not the standard of what internet marketing is. Most of the business realities of the brick and mortar world still apply online. Success in internet marketing requires a lot of hard work, just as any other type of business venture requires. Internet marketing is definitely not today what it will be tomorrow. As fast as one model of computer replaces another, so does the strategies employed by the professional internet marketer. Just fifteen years ago you could go online and find little more than text-based product descriptions. Now look at what you can find on the internet. Audio, video, pictures, youtube, myspace, pop-ups, social networking, flash, and on and on. Furthermore, laws on everything from privacy, personal security to taxation are changing and promise to make a different landscape of internet marketing than the one we see today. The best suggestion that I can give is to learn internet marketing, and use it as the tool it is. Realize it’s limitations, but also embrace what it can do for you and your business. Jack Zenert believes that marketing is the key to success in your business. Jack has created several successful businesses, and now consults with business and associations on improving their marketing. - Improve your Sales - Get online Results Now - The information you need to reach the top Please check out JackZenert.com Article Source: http://EzineArticles.com/?expert=Jack_Zenert http://EzineArticles.com/?Internet-Marketing-Is-Not-The-End-&id=440699 buy cheap ambien online ambien for sleep disorders overdose on ativan what does generic ambien look like
