You’ve married the woman of your dreams and the honeymoon is over. You’re confused because your dream has become a nightmare and your social life has vanished. You need a Marriage Makeover.
Friends have followed a post-wedding custom and left you to get to know one another without their interference.
Just when you could have done with their support and friendly advice.
With “that” argument.
The first one in your marriage. There’s no telling when it will happen. And there’s no telling why.
It may be the way you drive. It may be the way you hog the TV remote and constantly channel surf. This is a biggie. Watch out.
But when it does happen you learn the importance of the difference between a marriage based on a feeling only and one based on a choice with long term commitment and feelings. When you exchanged vows you “signed up” for the long haul.
Remember.
The world’s solution to settling such arguments is when the “feelings” between you sour a little you look for the fastest way out.
That never works.
You just take the biggest reason for the problem - you - off into a new relationship. It’s doomed to failure as you run your life on the cruel myth - If doesn’t feel good any more don’t do it.
You need to develop longsuffering and forgiveness to stay in any marriage.
Your Marriage Makeover begins with an Insider Secret. Wives hurl words that wound at their husbands. The key is to understand they often don’t really mean it. You have a special assignment here - should you choose to accept it.
And, yes, that is a two way street. Insults are flowing in both directions.
You’re special assignment is to be transformed by renewing your mind to the point where you can see wounding words as a cry for understanding and acceptance of a long held view. Such as it being wrong for husbands to monopolize the TV remote and surf through all the channels. Without first asking his wife if she minds.
Beginning your Marriage Makeover will bring a freshness to your relationship. And it will encourage you to get started on the next stage.

Title: Do You Want Your Children to Be Like You? Author:

Do You Want Your Children to Be Like You? By Margaret Paul, Ph.D.
There is an old saying regarding children: “Do as I say, not as
I do.” Whoever coined this phrase didn’t know much about
children. Children often do not “do as we say.” We are the role
models regarding how our children learn to treat themselves and
others. We are the role models regarding whether or not our
children learn to take personal responsibility for themselves -
physically, emotionally, financially, relationally, spiritually,
and organizationally.
Do you avoid responsibility for your own feelings with
substances, activities, or with shaming and blaming behavior
toward yourself or others? Are you always late and is your desk
a mess? Do you eat poorly and lack exercise? Are you always in
major credit card debt? Do you lack a relationship with a
spiritual source of love and guidance?
If you want your children to be on time, then you need to be on
time. If you want your children to be healthy and fit, then you
need to be healthy and fit. If you want your children to be
honest, then you need to be honest. If you want to raise happy
and peaceful children, then you need to role model how to be
happy and peaceful. If you want your children to have high
self-esteem, then you need to learn to treat yourself and them
with kindness and caring. If you treat your children with caring
and respect, but your children experience you shaming yourself
and treating yourself as if your feelings and needs are not
important, there is a good chance they will learn to disrespect
themselves as well.
For example, Martin grew up in a family where both of his
parents were high achievers and made tons of money. But his
mother was a highly judgmental woman and his father was always
unhappy and worried about something. Is it any surprise that
Martin does well financially, yet is constantly judging himself
and others and is often agitated over minor things?
Angie grew up with a mother who was totally devoted to her. In
Angie’s mind, her mother was the ideal mother - kind,
compassionate, and always ready to listen to Angie and help her
with her problems. Her hardworking father was also a kind and
caring person. Yet Angie has a hard time taking loving care of
herself. She ignores responsibility for her own feelings, does
not feed herself well, is often judgmental toward herself, and
has a hard time getting things done. She is constantly seeking
out a man to fill her up and make her feel worthy. How did this
happen with such loving parents?
While Angie’s parents were loving to her, they were not loving
to themselves. Angie’s mother used food to avoid her feelings,
and was always giving herself up to please others. In addition,
she could never quite get organized and was always late. Angie’s
father spent his life working hard and using the TV to avoid his
feelings. Neither of Angie’s parents role modeled personal
responsibility for their physical and emotional health. Angie
was shaped far more by how they treated themselves than how they
treated her. In fact, because they treated her so lovingly and
treated themselves so unlovingly, Angie grew up believing that
it was others’ responsibility to love her and fill her, rather
than her own responsibility. She grew up being needy and
demanding, rather than personally responsible.
Do you want your children to be like you? As a parent, it is
very important to take a look at what you are role modeling for
your children - not only regarding how you treat others, but how
you treat yourself. If there are certain values that you want
your children to have when they grow up, they are far more
likely to have your values if they deeply respect you. And they
will not respect you if you do not treat yourself with respect.
It is highly important, if you want your children to be happy,
healthy, and personally responsible, to be a role model of
happiness, health and personal responsibility.

People say pregnancy is a fun and exciting time. Probably they are right, but don’t you think that behind the fun and excitement, you also feel the changes in your body. Any woman who has ever been pregnant knows that changes come with the nine months as the “Baby Carrier.”
What Are Those Changes?
Naturally, our bodies change. Our boobs get bigger, our tummies expand and our taste buds become fickle, taking us on a whirlwind from one craving to the next. A once slender woman can morph into what seems like a monster.
Of course, morning sickness, which can happen at anytime during the day, is also a new change for expectant moms. Foods and even smells we once loved can send us into a hurl on a second’s notice. On top of that, we get to enjoy sweating like piglets, pimple outbreaks, exhaustion and sore feet and backs.
And then there are the emotional and mental changes. You’ve got to start getting into the Mom Mindset, so you tend to become more protective of others. See your husband using a knife that looks too sharp? Better run over and cut that tomato yourself! Or, have you noticed a stray dog in the neighborhood? No time like now to practice up on your care-giving skills - you should definitely make a trip to the grocery store for some Purina.
Indeed, we women take our roles as mothers seriously - sometimes too seriously. And we can find ourselves snapping at our loved ones for little infractions and even working ourselves into tearful outbursts over anything from a sad movie to a dirty rug during our pregnancies.
But doesn’t anybody dare tell a pregnant woman that she’s being irrational. Mood swings - sometimes within minutes - are totally normal. A pregnant woman’s body is going through hormonal changes, and spouses and others are well-advised to not taking anything personally.

For all those who innocently enquire- why would a profit hungry
corporation start distributing corporate gifts to anybody, here
is some information that will come as a surprise. Distribution
of Corporate gifts has been one of the oldest management
techniques to either motivate its employees or reach out to the
customers.
How does giving gifts help? Corporate gifts are effective in
boosting employee morale and popularizing the image of the
company amongst its customers. The logic behind the concept of
corporate gifts is very simple. Everybody loves a free lunch.
Everybody loves to get something for nothing in return. Whenever
people get a gift from somebody, they feel very happy about the
whole thing. The gift may be something as small as a toffee or
something as big as a vacations package for two.
What use can gifts be put to in corporations? Imagine you are
the employee of a huge corporation. You are one of the many
hundred persons working in your department. The entire
department works as a team to contribute to the success of the
company. However, you are not very satisfied with the job. There
is absolutely no sense of achievement. You feel as if you are
nothing but a nameless and faceless cog in a huge machine. You
feel that your work is not valued at all. You feel frustrated
but cannot quit because the pay is good. You walk into the
office to see your name on the notice board. You and your
colleagues have been awarded ten percent additional payment for
the wonderful work done by the department on the previous
project. How do you feel? In word- recognized.
You feel great that somebody up there appreciated the work done
by you- not with words alone but in a material way. Further, the
notice says that ten best employees will win an all expenses
paid trip for two to… Paris. I can bet my last dollar that you
and your teammates will work your heart out to win that prize.
The end result that your hard worked results in a huge boost in
the companies earnings. How did this increase come about? It is
not as if you and your colleagues were not working before. The
difference is that of motivation. Before the corporate gift
happened, you were completely demoralized.
After receipt of the corporate gift and the news of the
challenge, your job seems a lot more exciting. Once the
motivation has increased, your find your productivity rising.
You are ready to put in that extra effort and walk that extra
mile. The high level of motivation is seen in the results-
fabulous profits for the corporation. The reality is that corporate gifts
satisfy that primal urge of all men- recognition.

Here are some mosquito control tips that you may find useful.
1. First, wear clothing that covers most of your body, if the
temperature permit.
2. Do not allow food, trash, decaying wood, etc. to remain in or
on your property. Empty watering cans, remove old tires and
cover rain barrels to prevent mosquitoes from breeding.
3. Cover or seal trash tightly. Garbage can lids should be kept
closed and secured.
4. Prevent mosquitoes from entering your home by ensuring that
all your window screens are intact.
5. If you have a pond in your garden, stock it with some fish
that will eat the mosquito larvae.
6. Keep all areas where food is prepared, stored, and served
clean and free of crumbs and grease.
7. Cut back shrubs and vines that touch or overhang your
property.
8. Many communities conduct large-scale spraying of pesticides
containing mallothione to control mosquito populations during
the spring and summer, especially in attempts to reduce the
spread of West Nile encephalitis. Note that Adulticiding and
Fogging (external repellants) fend off adult mosquitoes FOR A
SHORT PERIOD OF TIME ONLY. They are only effective if you’re
going to host a picnic or some other outdoor event the next day.
Do not expect lasting effect.
9. Protect yourself and others from contact with any DEET
pesticide (DEET is a toxic element commonly found in repellants).
10.Several natural or man-made products are gaining popularity
as mosquito repellents. Citronella oil, a product of several
types of trees, can be made in to candles or burned directly, is
an effective mosquito repellent in high concentrations. It is
also a myth that ultraviolet lights (like those in bug zappers)
and ultrasonic devices are ineffective to get rid of mosquitoes.
Want to get a natural, high quality and long-lasting mosquito
repellent? Go to http://www.anti-moz.com to protect yourself
from mosquito bites without harmful chemicals or messy, oily
repellent on your skin!

Perhaps you already own a fireplace but would like to add a fireplace mantel to it? Or maybe this is a complete project you had in mind including the fireplace and its mantel. Regardless a fireplace mantel is an excellent addition to your living area. And, there are many choices to choose from as well. Wood or stone? A shelf or an entire surrounding wall?
Putting in a fireplace mantel into your home will add a nice touch to your fireplace. It will also give you considerable room to display your treasures. A mantel can be a great place for pictures, a sculpture, or even just knick knacks. Or, for another effect, it can be left empty.
Then there are the choices in fireplace mantels that you have. The first one is a wood fireplace mantel. A wood fireplace mantel would look great in a room that already had some wood items. Perhaps a knotted pine wall or the molding in the room will be a tool to find a matching fireplace mantel. The surrounding area in the room that you will place your fireplace should give you some idea of what you would like it to look like. Another option is stone. A stone fireplace mantel is very nice if the surrounding area will match it in some way. Adding touches of the element, whether stone or wood, throughout the room will help to make it mesh.
A fireplace mantel is an excellent addition to a home. It adds style and design as well as a place to store precious items that you wish to show off. A fireplace mantel that matches the room in some way is perfect. Finding the right one may prove to be a little more difficult, but shouldn’t be harder then checking out a few home improvement stores or catalogs. A fireplace mantel is something to consider if you have a fireplace or plan to install one.

Choosing your File Format
I would recommend you use just two different file formats - one for mobile devices and one for PCs. Remember that most people will only read really large eBooks (i.e. 80-100k words) on their desktop PC. For PCs, I would chose the Adobe Portable Document Format (PDF) as (a) Adobe reader is already installed on millions of PCs worldwide, (b) all the major eBook distributors support it and (c) Micosoft are planning to incorporate export-to-pdf functionality in all their next generation MS-Office products.
For mobile, my personal recommendation is the Mobipocket .prc format as (a) it supports more complex e-books that require oversized images and horizontally scrolling tables, (b) the Mobipocket Reader can be used on the widest range of PDAs & Smart Phones and (c) Amazon have recently purchased Mobipocket and are sure to give it greater prominence in the future.
Converting your master to PDF Format
To begin with, optimize the meta-data in your MS-Word document. Access File - Properties from the menu and begin with the “Summary” tab. Enter your title in the “Title” box, exactly as it would appear on Nielsen BookData and Amazon. Put your sub-title in the “Subject” field. Enter your author name as second name, first name (e.g. Viney, David) in the “Author” field. In the “Category” field, I would use Amazon’s taxonomy, so for my eBook Guide, I would enter: Books > E-Books & E-Docs > Non-fiction > General. Use the “Keywords” field to add individual words which summarise the content of your book. Separate them with a comma and a single space. For my eBook I would enter: eBook, self, publishing, Amazon, Mobipocket, PDF, Lightning, Source, eBooks.com, writing.
Once you have optimised the Word master, it is time to begin conversion to the PDF format. With OEM or second-hand software available so cheaply these days from eBay (see panel right) I would recommend you purchase and use Adobe Professional software to do the conversion. Once you have installed the software, you will find that you can simply click on a “Convert to Adobe PDF” icon, which should be the left-most one of the three Adobe icons in your Word toolbar. The macro that follows will first prompt you to chose a filename to save your PDF document under. Use the ISBN (so for my ebook, I used 0955077427.pdf).
The macro will then scan for bookmarks, create pages and process tags before firing up the pre-final PDF file. Check the Bookmarks panel to make sure the macro has converted your Word table of contents properly. Then tweak some of the PDF settings for best results. Firstly, set the “Initial View” document options to “Show Bookmark Panel and Pages”. Under “Page Layout” select “Continuous Facing” and in the “Security” tab decide whether you want to apply any DRM-style restrictions (I leave at “No Security”). Secondly, check the metadata has been translated properly from the Word master and add any “Additional Metadata” (e.g. copyright status). Finally, optimize the file size of your PDF file, using both the the Advanced | PDF Optimizer menu option and the File | Reduce File Size option (which limits the reverse-compatibility of the file).
Converting your master to PRC Format
I recommend you purchase Mobipocket Creator Professional to handle the conversion. Whilst relatively expensive, it is by far the better functioned of all options. Open the installed software, select the import from MS Word document option and browse for your Word master. From the “publication files” screen, the first step is to add your cover art. Ensure your cover art has a file width of less than 200 pixels, a file height of less than 300 pixels and an overall file size of less than 50kb. This should generally be the case when you have set a medium (6/10) file quality to your .jpg file.
Whilst I would avoid the Mobipocket Table of Contents option (too complex) you should certainly focus on the metadata section (as the Mobipocket site has a Google Page Rank of 7/10 and your finished page will rank high up on Google). I advise preparing metadata entries first in a (backed-up) text file (using Notepad). If you iterate the file conversion and build process a number of times, you will find yourself re-entering data over and over again; being able to copy-and-paste from a text file will save you lots of time!
Once you have finished this section, it is time to build your eBook file and test it on various readers / emulators. Select the default build options, run the the build process, then “preview results in Mobipocket reader” on your PC. After you are happy, do a final test on the Mobipocket PDA Emulator. Having tested what you file will look like on a sample of PDAs and Smartphones, do one final iteration of the build process, this time with the “content encryption with DRM” checkbox selected. Your eBook is now ready to be uploaded.
Uploading your PDF to Lightning Source
To distribute your PDF via Amazon, I recommend signing up for Lightning Source International (LSI) as a minimum. In my full eBook (purchase from panel right) I also cover how to distribute via other sites, including Lulu and Content Reserve). To sign up with LSI, click on the “new customer?” link on their homepage, then the “new account” link.
Choose a log-in name and password (both between 6 and 16 characters in length), then enter your contact information. In the “form of business” drop-down, select sole proprietor. Choose your “primary book category” from the drop-down within the “miscellaneous information” section (e.g. professional/technical). Under “total number of titles in print” and “number of new titles published annually” I would suggest entering 2-5 titles. For “number of years company in business” put Uploading your PRC to Mobipocket
Firstly, visit http://www.ebookbase.com to register with Mobipocket. Now review the eBookBase Agreement. Either sign it and fax the form or (for speed) copy-and-paste the content into a Word file, add your signature as a scanned picture and email the signed electronic contract to nting@mobipocket.com
You will note from the contract that the wholesaler price is 50% of the suggested retail Price. As such, you may wish to set the retail price of the .prc version of your eBook slightly higher than you did for the .pdf version (so as to recoup a similar return).
Mobipocket will come back pretty quickly to confirm your application and will point you to a URL from where you can logon to your account online. You should find that you are given the same user-id and password that you originally registered with on the main site.
First select the “Add an eBook” option from the eBook catalogue. Browse to find your .prc file and click on the “upload new eBook” link. Note the default directory for the Mobipocket .prc file you created s is the “My Publications” folder within “My Documents”. The file you are looking for should have been saved there (using “build” within the Mobipocket software) with a DRM security level of 4.
In the Meta-Data input screen, you should address (a) Affiliation URL (leave alone), (b) Title (enter title, than a colon, then a space, then the sub-title), (c) Activate for Retailers (leave checked), (d) Author (put the LastName, then a comma, then FirstName), (e) ISBN (leave pre-populated), (f) Print Book ISBN (put parent ISBN), (g) Language (select English), (h) Main Subject (select most appropriate from the drop-down), (i) Abstract (Max 4000 chars; copy-and-paste from your Amazon “short description” meta-data), (j) Review (Max 4000 chars; this will appear on the site as if it is from Mobipocket themselves), (k) Keywords (Max 100 chars; enter same as you did for the MS-Word metadata, only with each word separated by a semi-colon rather than a comma), (l) Adult only (leave unchecked) and (m) Publishing Date (leave autofilled)
In the file information section, click on browse to find your cover art image in the “CoverPage” section. Note that you are restricted to a maximum size of 50KB and dimensions of 200 pixels width x 300 pixels height. Ignore the “Demo PRC File” dialogue and leave the “Force No Demo file” checkbox unchecked. This will cause Mobipocket to default to an automatically generated PRC demo file containing the first 5% of the text of the ebook.
Conclusions
Choose only the PDF and PRC file formats for your eBook and distribute them using LSI and Mobipocket respectively. Pay close attention to the use of high quality metadata, as it will help with the subsequent marketing of your book, which (together with taking payment) if the theme of my final chapter: selling your eBook.

Whether the husband gets a vasectomy or the wife gets a tubal ligation is usually decided by who has the strongest will. Vasectomies and tubal ligations are safe surgeries, but the operation on a man is a simple cutting under the skin in an office, while the operation on a woman requires going into her belly in an operating room. Over the long haul, they both are safe and effective in preventing pregnancies.
Two studies seemed to show that having a vasectomy increases a man’s chances of getting prostate cancer, but more recent studies show no increased risk. When scientists compare two variables to see if one causes the other, they should determine whether one factor causes the other, or is just associated with it. They use two study groups: men who have had vasectomies and those who have not. Men who have had vasectomies tend to be more sexually active than those who have not had this procedure; otherwise, they wouldn’t need to have the vasectomy done. Three recent studies show that increased sexual activity is a risk factor for prostate cancer. Those at increased risk include men who have the earliest first sexual intercourse, the most partners, the most marriages and the most frequent orgasms. However, at present most doctors feel that sexual activity is not a risk factor for prostate cancer. Men who have had vasectomies are also less likely to use condoms because they don’t have to worry about pregnancy, so they are more likely to pick up venereal diseases that may or may not be associated with prostate cancer.
Doctors cut the spermatic cord as it leaves the testicles to carry sperm to the outside. Beyond the cut, two glands, the prostate and seminal vesicles, attach to and supply most of the ejaculatory fluid. A vasectomy does not change a man’s hormone levels or the appearance or amount of fluid in his ejaculate. One study shows that you must be cautious after you have had a vasectomy. Sometimes sperm hides in the tubes for months. The usual waiting period is to check a man six weeks after he has had a vasectomy to see if any sperm are still in his ejaculate. This study shows that you have to wait six months to be checked to see if it is safe to make love without causing a pregnancy.

An easy thing to forget in the midst of our frenzied lives is the simple act of saying “thank you.” Who has the time to slow down for such old-fashioned pleasantries? And yet, by incorporating a thank-you strategy into your marketing, I promise you’ll reap immense rewards.
You’ll stand out because it’s not something that other business owners are in the habit of doing. Extending age-old courtesies now actually gives you an edge in the marketplace. It goes a long way toward cementing relationships with prospects and reinforcing customer loyalty.
One of the best ways to thank someone is a hand-written card. Get into the habit of writing notes. Keep a stack by your desk and scribble notes to customers, vendors, leads, associates, and mentors. Once you get started thanking people, you will find limitless opportunities. And guess what? People are tickled pink to receive a good, old-fashioned card.
Write a note that is sincere. Make sure you are expressing simple gratitude in your message, not a thinly disguised sales pitch. Don’t be afraid to be warm and personal. And in case you’re a chicken scratcher like me, don’t worry about the way your writing looks - scribble your note and send it anyway!
Timing counts! For the most part, express your appreciation within a couple of days.
Here are some different opportunities to thank people:
* A new client/customer
* Existing client/customer who gives you a new project
* Someone who makes a referral to your company
* A peer who gives you helpful advice
* As a follow-up after a meeting or phone call
* For a job well done by an employee, vendor, or associate
* When someone shows you a kindness
People like to feel appreciated and recognized. You’ll find that by thanking people, you will strengthen relationships. Your simple act of recognizing people will set you apart from your competitors. It will reinforce your bond with your clients, associates, vendors, etc. By, the way, don’t forget to thank employees - they like to be appreciated, as well!
And, it will bolster word-of-mouth referrals. When someone has been appreciated and they hear of someone who needs your services/products, guess whose company they will recommend?
The power of saying “thank-you” is a powerful, but simple marketing tactic. Make is a habit and you will reap the rewards.
ACTION STEP: Are you in the habit of saying thank you? No? Then go to the store today and pick up some cards. Make it a goal to send at least 1 card a day (yes, that’s 5 a week!). Not only is it part of effective marketing, but it’s a winning strategy that won’t let you down!

To help dealers in developing its next generation of technicians, the GM has specific technician training particulars. The GM Technician Training Strategy uses a three-tiered system that enables dealers to train technicians at all levels in their education.
For example, GM ASEP provides training for individuals who are interested in technology to work towards a career in servicing and maintaining GM vehicles. Some colleges in the US and Canada have joined hands with GM dealers, to bring this program. Students in the GM ASEP program can spend two years alternating between attending college and working for sponsored GM dealerships. When the student graduates, he will be awarded with an Associate’s Degree in Automotive Technology or a closely related degree.
A strong academic foundation of math, reading, and electronics, and both analytical and technical skills are integrated into the GM ASEP advanced automotive technical training. GM’s continued commitment to identify and support GM ASEP colleges and universities has produced over 15,000 service technicians since 1979. Thousands of young technicians are now in the work market as experts of the GM products.
This information will be of interest to you if you are interested in the GM Automotive Service Education Program and becoming a certified GM mechanic.
