Excerpt from Constantine Maroulis
Top 10, Season 4
If I went back to my high school and walked the halls, I'd
probably still hear my teacher's voice calling out to me,
"Constantine! You have such talent; don't waste it!" For some, a
teacher like that comes along once in a lifetime. For many, not
even once. I now look back and see how lucky I was that she
cared about me. Not too many teachers did.
When I was a teenager, I had a lousy attitude and topped it off
with bad grades. Deep down, I thought I probably was a good
singer, but I didn't have an ounce of confidence in my bones.
I'd look in the mirror and see a shy, ugly, geeky kid staring
back. And I'd be flat-out terrified if somebody asked me to
sing. In fact, I was so scared, there were times when I'd open
my mouth and nothing would come out.
I remember the rainy February morning that I walked into her
music class. I sat in my chair, half slumped over, thinking that
this was gonna be bad. I was chewing gum, figuring I could
probably sing and chew at the same time. I mean, I wasn't
serious about this singing thing.
The old wooden door opened slowly, and into the classroom
walked Mrs. Carol Birdsill. She looked right at me and smiled. I
instantly knew that she connected to something inside of me.
What it was, I didn't know, but that something whispered, Sit
up, shut up, and put out your hand, Constantine. She is holding
the missing puzzle piece you're looking for. I threw out my gum.
She was a round, jolly woman with big white hair. I loved to
watch her sit at her piano and sing her heart out. She was the
kindest, sweetest, and probably the most talented woman I had
ever met. I loved everything about her, but more importantly,
she loved everything about me.
For the first time in my life, someone believed in my talent.
With Mrs. Birdsill, I didn't have to say a word — she knew how
much I struggled to let my inner voice out. She saw my anguish,
and she never gave up on me. Her goal was not only to get me to
sing, but more importantly, to get me to believe I could sing.
She also happened to be the musical director for our high-school
plays and wanted me to be in them.
One day, she took me aside, looked me in the eye, and said,
"You have real talent. Just stop the nonsense and focus! First
of all, you have to start doing better in school. Secondly, I
know this is something you could pursue professionally some day.
I believe in you, Constantine." She gave it to me straight, but
it just didn't sink in fast enough. She tried so hard to get to
me, but I remained slightly out of her reach. It was just a lot
easier hanging out with my friends than facing my fears.
The surprise of my life came when Mrs. Birdsill picked me to be
the music teacher for the day. It might not sound like a big
deal, but it was. In fact, it was considered a school honor — my
first. I was so proud and excited.
The day before my big teaching day dawned, the principal called
me down to his office during music class. I thought he probably
needed to talk to me about the procedures for the next day. I
walked in and he said, "Sit down, Constantine."
My knees knocked as I tried to center myself in the enormous
mahogany chair in front of his desk.
"Constantine," he said, "you've done very well in Mrs.
Birdsill's class, and it's a great privilege to be chosen as the
music teacher for the day. Unfortunately, your other grades are
not worthy, and I can't allow you to accept this honor." I sat
there motionless as his words went through me like a blade of
ice. I was devastated. I had failed again, and I took it out on
the one person who meant the most to me.
I fought back my tears as I went to her class, picked up my
books, and walked out, never looking back. I had made my
decision: I'm not going to try out for her shows. They're for
losers.
I remember the day before the school's big show — the show I
belonged in, and the one I knew Mrs. Birdsill wanted me in so
badly. I peeked into the auditorium and saw her hard at work
with actors, singers, and band members. I walked home slowly
that day with an awful, empty feeling inside.
When I got to my house, I went into the kitchen and threw my
books across the floor just as the phone rang. I didn't feel
much like talking to anyone, but I picked up the phone and
unenthusiastically said hello. The chilling words that came
across the phone line left me frozen. "Constantine?! Oh, my God,
Constantine, Mrs. Birdsill just died!"
I threw the phone and, as it smashed into the wall, I screamed,
"Nooooo! Please, come back. Please!" I wept — my God, I wept. I
felt like I had lost my guardian angel, the one who had been
sent to help me believe in myself.
My pain was so great that I thought it would never leave. But
my lack of will to turn my life around was greater . . . until
exactly one year to the day after Mrs. Birdsill's death.
The opening day of our school's annual play was upon us once
again — and, once again, I wasn't a part of it. Just as I had
done the year before, I peeked into the auditorium, and this
time the absence of the jolly woman with the big white hair was
painfully obvious.
But a strange thing happened later that day. A huge, round,
fluffy white owl perched itself on a telephone pole outside and
just sat there, motionless, staring at the school. No one knew
where it came from. We had never seen an owl in our neighborhood
before — and didn't they just come out in the dark of night?
I went outside and watched that bird for hours. Everyone was
talking about it, asking, "Why is it staying there?"
I knew why. That owl had come for me. As I stared at the
creature, it stared back, looking right through me, and I felt
just like I did when I first walked into Mrs. Birdsill's music
room twelve months earlier. The owl took no pity. I fell to my
knees and wept — and it just watched me weep. That owl had a
message, and in the quiet evening air, I finally heard it, loud
and clear.
The next school play was West Side Story, and although I was
terrified, I auditioned. I found the strength to overcome my
fear when I heard Mrs. Birdsill's voice inside me, saying, I
believe in you, Constantine. You can do this.
I got the part.
I worked harder than I had ever worked at anything in my life,
and when the curtain went up on opening night, I sang my best,
knowing my guardian angel was right by my side. As I struggled
to find that first note, the missing puzzle piece was finally in
place. I not only heard her voice saying, I believe in you, but
for the first time ever, I heard my own voice saying, I believe
in me. And that's how it all began.

You attract what you do about what you think. - Daniel Grissom
We've all heard of the Law of Attraction. It says, you attract
what you think about. But, do your results in sales and
leadership support this definition? Mine have not. Hey, I
thought about getting straight A's during my school days and
having the physique of a body builder, but neither happened. Why
is that?
It's because The Law of Attraction is a misnomer. It's really
The Law of Attraction, which is a combination of attraction and
action. You don't attract what you think about, but you attract
what you do about what you think. The key is action!
And when you do take action, you must give your best to attract
the best. Think about it. Likely, when you aimed for an A+ in
school you got that result. But, when you aimed for a B+ or
less, you got an incongruent result. Why is it that only A+
standards produce congruent results?
First, it's because when you don't give your best, the universe
reciprocates by giving you a substandard result. The universe
rewards excellence and reproves average initiative! It's just
that simple. Consider the parable of the talents. Here's my
paraphrasing of this biblical story. Once, there was a Master
who entrusted large some of money (talents) to his three
workers. The Master gave these talents according to the ability
of each worker. The Master expected each worker to invest these
talents and maximize their potential, while he was away.
What happened? When the Master returned he discovered that only
two of the workers developed their talents. He was pleased. The
3rd worker, who "just thought" about taking action and giving
his best, was severely rebuked. Why? It's because he failed to
take action. He failed to develop his God-given talents. Could
you be sitting on your sales and leadership talents?
This was unacceptable to the Master and this worker was thrown
into utter darkness. And, his talents were given to the other
workers that had taken action. Do you get it? Although, the 3rd
worker thought about taking action, he attracted rebuke because
of his lack of actions, not because of his well-meaning
thoughts.
Second, it's because the universe is inviting you to step out
of your comfort zone. What's a comfort zone? It's a place that
you go to relax and sometimes fall asleep. The universe presents
you with a substandard result because it wants you to wake up.
It beckons you to expand your comfort zone and step up. The
universe knows that the comfort zone is really the danger zone
because it's suppressing your God-given potential. Third, it's
because the formula for "achieving excellence" is clearer than
that for "achieving average." In other words, the requirements
for transformation (your best effort) are clearer than those for
modification (your second best effort). Think about that for a
minute. Have you ever tried to lose two pounds, but then
struggled to decide what you could eat or do to achieve this
goal? But in comparison, when you decided to STEP UP and lost 10
pounds, the do's and dont's were crystal clear. You see,
transformation is an A+ standard, which produces excellent
results. But, modification is the equivalent of a B+ standard,
which produces average results.
In summary, the law of attraction commands you to raise your
standards, take action and unleash your potential in sales and
life. The universe demands you step out of your comfort zone. It
invites you to STEP UP!

A belief is any guiding principle, faith or passion., that can provide meaning and direction in life. Beliefs are filters to our perceptions of the world, like "commanders of the brain". Our beliefs can change us from being a tired old man or woman to a "creative and passionate" artist, or even an " inspired genius".
John Stuart Mill once wrote: "One person with a belief is equal to a force of ninety-nine who have only interests."
That's precisely why our beliefs open the door to excellence. Belief delivers a direct command to your nervous system. When you believe something is true, you literally go into the state of it's being true. Handled effectively, beliefs can be the most powerful force for creating good in your life. Beliefs help us tap the richest resources deep within us, creating and directing these resources in the support of our desired outcomes.
The people who have changed history - whether Christ, Mohammed, Copernicus, Columbus, Edison or Einstein have been the people who have changed our beliefs. To change our own behavious for the better, we have to start with our beliefs. Learn to model the beliefs of those who achieve excellence.
Beliefs are the compass and maps that guide us towards our goals and give us the surety to know we'll get there. With powerful guiding beliefs, you have the power to take action and create the world you want to live in. Beliefs help you see what you want and energize you to get it.
Beliefs control reality... so our beliefs become our reality. The brain simply does what is told, ie. what we feed it.
"Drugs are not always necessary; but belief in recovery always is."
- Norman Cousins
Our experiences are closely related to our expectations.
Deliver simple congruent messages to the brain and CNS (central nervous system).
Belief is nothing but a state, an internal representation that governs our behaviours.
As Henry Ford once said: "Whether you believe you can, or whether you believe you can't you're right."
Beliefs are a choice, a conscious choice. You can choose beliefs that limit you, or you can choose beliefs that support you. So choose the beliefs that will help move you towards the results you want.
Belief is the doorway to success and excellence.
"The road to success is always under construction."
*
"Good timber does not grow with ease;
the stronger the wind, the stronger the trees."
- J Willard-Marriott
It is our belief that determines how much of our personal potential we will tap. Beliefs can turn on or shut off the flow of ideas.
"They can, because they think they can."
- Virgil
Plato once said: "There is nothing great in the world except man and there is nothing great in man except mind."
Why do some people have beliefs that push them towards success, whilst others have beliefs that help them to fail?
Where do our beliefs come from?:
1. the environment: effect of the environment on beliefs and dreams.
Form the internal representations that foster success
2. Events, both large and small can help foster beliefs.
3. Knowledge
4. Direct experiences
5. Past results
Develop the belief that you can be someone special (and often the belief comes before any overt sign of exceptional talent)
Create (consciously) the beliefs that allow you to succeed.
Create in your mind the experience you desire in the future,
ie. visualise already achieving your desired outcome.
Step into the experience, thereby changing your states, your beliefs, and consequently your actions.
Believing it can be done then becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy
Develop a state of excitement.
You can control your beliefs, you can control the way you model others. . and you CAN change.
What are some of the beliefs you have about who you are and what you're capable of?
Rethink your beliefs to succeed in the long term.
Be empowered by success thoughts.
The pursuit of excellence begins with modelling the beliefs of successful people. Like Abraham Lincoln, who failed time after time before achieving ultimate success, gear yourself towards excellence.
Choose your beliefs carefully, then maintain the belief system that empowers you.
Your reality is the reality you create.
You can consciously direct your life through choosing the right thoughts and beliefs about what is possible ...
and always remember, nothing is impossible.

There's more to CRM definition than what meets the eye. For a
lot of entrepreneurs, it's the way to do business. Because
customers are the lifeblood of any business, Customer
Relationship Management emerged to make the whole process more
convenient, a lot easier, and with wider remuneration.
CRM Definition
Customer Relationship Management or CRM is a term used for
managing customer interactions in a structured manner using
tools, software, and methodologies through online means. But one
cannot grasp CRM merely by the CRM definition alone. It is an
intricate and technical web of innovations so comprehensive and
convenient access to information are achieved.
As an example, a fashion retail shop would be able to have a
customer database with valuable information such as specific
customer preferences, purchase history, product needs, feedback
and contact details, among others. The managers, sales staff,
and even the clients themselves may be able to gain access to
user-specific areas of this database to make service easier for
everyone involved, most especially the customers.
So What's Behind A Mere CRM Definition?
Because the CRM definition guarantees smoother, easier, and
almost seamless customer relations, it consists of powerful
innovations that allow your organization to do any, if not all,
of the following:
• Form a personalized relationship with each and every customer
for easier attainment of consumer satisfaction. The more your
clients trust you, then the easier it is for your business to
gain profits. With CRM, you can get a good look at the customers
bringing in most of the profits and you have the opportunity to
give them the high quality of service they deserve.
• CRM can give you the tools to enhance key customer-centric
departments such as telemarketing, sales, and customer
relations. With CRM, you can now have easy and shared access to
optimized customer information. Your current processes can also
be restructured or improved to reduce cost and increase sales.
So if your current delivery service is via a landline, CRM
allows you to incorporate purchases through other means such as
the Internet and mobile devices, as well.
• Your management and staff can have easy storage and access to
any customer-related information that's very useful to
successfully closing sales.
• The automation of your marketing process is made possible
with CRM. You can quickly and easily identify your leads and
prospects, as well as your repeat and regular customers. Because
your marketing message is clear, you are able to run highly
effective marketing campaigns.
CRM is not just some savvy trend with an intelligent definition
and powered by the latest technology. It goes way beyond than
that. To be able to use it to your organization's advantage, you
need to be sensitive and constantly alert to the behaviors of
your target market, your customer's feedback, and what they
really want and need. CRM will not create stronger ties with
your customers by itself. You should be in control and deftly
utilize the technology of CRM to make it work for your business.

================== ARTICLE START ============ ======
An author that sets out to write a trilogy, is to say the least
ambitious, to maintain key characters over three books requires
some very intricate plot manipulations. Mary Martin has
succeeded in grand style. A Trial Of One wraps up The Osgoode
Trilogy. In book one we meet our intrepid, yet unlikely hero
Harry Jenkins, a very average lawyer, practicing in a very small
and very nondescript law firm. When his partner dies suddenly he
finds himself captain of the ship, but where is the ship headed?
It is now his alone to make work.
Book two Final Paradox continues Harry's saga, he discovers
that a huge fraud was perpetrated years before, millions of
dollars disappeared in a medical research scam, and his elderly
client Norma Dinnick exhibiting the tell tale signs of dementia
confuses Harry. Is she victim of the fraud, or a partner to the
crime?
In A Trial Of One these mysteries, and there are several
interwoven and cleverly executed plot twists, all gradually come
together. Our hero Harry finds himself once again caught up in
the needs of his clients. Norma Dinnick has been incarcerated in
a mental institution having been found not guilty by way of
insanity due to the onset of Alzheimer's for murder. In her rare
trips into lucidity she talks of a huge fortune that rightly
belongs to her. Harry acting as not only her lawyer, but also
legal guardian feels obliged to investigate. The fortune itself
seems real, but is it the ill gotten gains from a fraud, or
money that was justly earned? A shell company called Elixacorp
raised over $30 million dollars, but where is the money now?
Although all of the original protagonists in the fraud scheme
are dead, there is one man who still has a driving interest in
the loot, Dr. Robert Hawke. Is he medical genius, or maniacal
madman? That is the question that we are faced with. It does not
take Harry long to realize that Dr. Hawke is a dangerous
adversary. Dr. Hawke is researching a new drug that can treat,
and even reverse the ravages of Alzheimer's. This could be the
single most important breakthrough in medical science in many
years. Research takes money though, and Dr. Hawke contends that
the money Harry Jenkins seeks was legally raised, and was
specifically for research into Alzheimer's. Harry Jenkins must
also deal with the distraught widow of his dead partner. Dorothy
Crawford is convinced that her husband Richard was poisoned, and
the fatal Stroke, was merely the result. And the murderer is
someone just know by the initial 'Q.'
A Trial Of One is a cracking read, to call it a page turner
does not do it justice. What I really liked was that even
through it is part of a trilogy it stands on its own. You do not
need to have read the previous books to understand the plot, or
the characters involved. The characters are well developed,and
rich in texture.
The story moves from Toronto, to Vienna, to London, each step
becomes more dangerous for Harry.
This is an interesting book and operates on several different
levels. This is not your standard action/adventure by any
stretch of the imagination. One of the subplots involves sex,
well actually that is not quite true, it involves sexuality, and
it certainly is thought provoking.
Maybe a trilogy is the ideal number of books to work a
character, and then move on. Even famous best selling authors
have fallen into the trap of wearing a character out, one
example is author Tom Clancy who worked his character Jack Ryan
until he became a joke. Mary Martin has not done that, in fact I
am sure that she could use him a couple more times. Certainly if
I was her, I would be giving serious thought to it.
This is a great book, and you can get your own copy from
Amazon, there is also an interesting web page, The Osgoode
Trilogy, supporting the trilogy.

================== ARTICLE START ============ ======
Finding and retaining your leading sales staff is an important
part of profitable B2B marketing programs. One shouldn't plan on
simply throwing people into the call center with expectations of
good results. After grasping the primary concepts in a phone
marketing campaign, you will have to understand the function of
the phone marketer and how they will interface with overall
strategy. It's important to know the skills and traits which are
needed to fill the position and match overall expectations. To
do this, you may want to ask yourself some questions:
* do your candidates possess the right experience?
* is it necessary for them to have previously worked with the
CRM program?
* will they need to already be savvy at hire, or will you
train?
* are there certain prerequisites which you will require?
* do you need energetic, results-oriented or easygoing phone
staff?
* should your marketers have a particular level of
professionalism?
* will they be required to think creatively in solving
problems?
The top five qualities of great salespeople, according to
Workplace Today Magazine:
* empathy
* motivation
* service-oriented
* conscientious
* good self-esteem
Finding The Right People
First, let's begin with the right group of candidates.
Well-written and targeted recruitment advertisements like those
at monster, careerbuilder, and jobs.com are great. You can also
post open jobs at the local college career center and senior
center. You can put advertisements on cable television, radio,
or even purchase ads which run in advance of the films at your
neighborhood movieplex. By being aware of the good
service-oriented people working at restaurants, supermarkets,
and theaters, you may find folks whose friendly and articule
mannerisms could well translate into a good phone marketing
repertoire. Why not award a bonus to a staff member who helps
locate the next good phone marketer, payable at the completion
of a ninety day probation? It's recommended that you don't write
"telemarketing" or "telemarketer" in your ad - it's better to
opt for something such as "sales support" or "customer service,"
as these words attract a wider group of potential employees.
Hiring
For most jobs, you'd most likely ask for a resume first. For
phone marketers, instead first let prospective marketers call a
particular phone number which sends them directly to voice mail.
The out-going message should tell them about your company and
the job description, then ask that the caller leave their name
and number and offer a couple of minutes' time for them to
demonstrate why they are the correct person to have in the
position. By listening to candidates speaking on the messages,
and paying attention to the way they pitch themselves, you
should be able to take first impressions of who will make it
through to the next stage. Those who leave a positive impact
from their message can be next invited to a telephone interview.
Those callers who pose a question about the business, product,
or what you need from them on the job are most likely thoughtful
enough to be the proactive type that you'll need to generate
leads on the phone. The very top candidates will attempt to
engage you by opening up a conversation. Those potential
employees who remain strong should now be requested to send a
cover letter and resume. This is the right stage to delve deeper
and look more closely at the applicant's history to see if they
possess the desired experience. Final in-person interviews can
then be scheduled with your best candidates.
Training
Correct training is a top way to avoid disappointment and
failure in your telephone marketing campaigns. These sessions
will provide new employees with the background and knowledge to
reach their goals across a wide range of scenarios. The optimal
amount of training is Dependant on the type of work they will do
and their past experience. The basics could go over company
history and role in the industry, and discuss the field of
competition. Next describe your company's offerings, along with
an overview of the features which may be important to potential
buyers. Of course, phone marketers need to have a good
understanding of prices and costs in the sales which they will
make. By taking care to demonstrate the preferred methods of
using the CRM program, outlining policy, and being up-front
about expectations, your new sales staff can set the bar for
themselves and measure their own performance day by day and
better use their work hours. Successful recruitment and
retainment of the right people is the leading way to ensure
positive results from your business-to-business marketing
efforts.

When that sweet little puppy face is staring at you, begging
you to take it home, it's easy for rational thought to go out
the window. And if that adorable face comes complete with a few
face licks, you're most likely already sold. The moment you're
being bombarded with wet kisses, you're probably not thinking
about all the time and energy, not to mention the cost of owning
a dog.
Besides the time spent training and caring for it, there are
also the basic expenses of food, a warm bed, grooming and
veterinary care. In addition, you'll want to have a few other
things on hand: a leash and collar for walks, toys for playtime
and treats for training. Most of these expenses vary from dog
to dog.
Take food, for example. A three-pound Chihuahua will eat less
than a 100-pound Great Pyrenees. But it's not only the amount
of food they eat; it's also the type of food. You can spend a
nominal amount on low-quality dog food that contains a lot of
fillers, and not enough protein and minerals, or you can spend
several times that amount on a special raw diet. While these
types of diets generally offer all the nutrients and vitamins a
dog needs, minus added filler, some dog owners like the
convenience of a dry or canned food.
As smaller pets take up less space, so do their accessories. A
teacup poodle-sized dog bed would never accommodate a Great
Dane. A tiny bed will cost considerably less than a large bed.
But then again, you may decide to forgo a dog bed altogether in
favor of letting the dog sleep on a family member's bed. A toy
that is the perfect size for a tiny Yorkie mouth could be
dangerous around a larger dog. A big dog could choke on a toy
meant for a small dog. Larger toys are in order if you're
getting a large breed dog. Buy a few nice toys, if you can.
Consider it part of the cost of owning a dog.
Grooming is another consideration. It's important that dogs
are bathed and brushed regularly. This helps keep their skin
healthy and their coat shiny. As some dogs are prone to skin
disorders, it's always a good idea to maintain good habits in
this regard. Some dogs shed more than others. Even dogs that
are touted as "non-shedding" breeds still shed, but maybe not as
much as others. The home of a golden retriever might harbor
tumbleweeds of dog hair in every corner, while in the home of a
maltese, you might only find a few hairs here or there. Regular
washing and brushing can help control shedding, though at
certain times of the year, dogs lose more hair in preparation
for the change of seasons. It's also important to keep a dog's
nails short. If nails are left to grow, the quick (the fleshy
portion on the underside of the nail) grows along with them,
making it difficult to trim nails short without damaging the
quick. If the nails are excessively long, it can be difficult
and uncomfortable for a dog to walk on them. To save money, as
well as bond with your dog, you can do all of the grooming
activities yourself. You'll spend more on the initial supply of
shampoo and nail clippers, but they'll pay for themselves the
more you groom your dog.
The most critical expense to consider is that of veterinary
care. Unlike toys and treats, this expense cannot be eliminated
in a pinch. This is a necessary cost of owning a dog. In a
perfect world, dogs would see the vet once a year. They'd go
for annual rabies and distemper shots, as well as tests to check
for other canine diseases. This schedule would stay in effect
for the life of the dog. Unfortunately, sometimes dogs need
more frequent vet visits. Ear infections, sprains and stomach
ailments are among the most common reasons dogs visit their
vets. Thankfully, these are usually temporary issues, and dogs
recover rather quickly.
But other diseases are much more serious, and much more
expensive to treat. It's said that fifty percent of all dogs
over age ten will die of cancer. But certain breeds of dogs are
more likely than others to have particular health issues, even
before that age. Bulldogs, pugs and other short-muzzled breeds
are predisposed to breathing problems. Hip dysplasia is not
uncommon in golden retrievers. Cocker spaniels are susceptible
to eye disorders, such as cataracts. Of course, most dogs live
long, full, healthy lives, but it's a good idea to research your
breed to understand what to expect.
Other items such as collars, leashes, toys and treats, run the
gamut from inexpensive to downright pricey. You can find
serviceable nylon collars and leashes, or you can opt for the
rhinestone-encrusted collar with matching leash. It's the same
with toys. You can find an inexpensive fleece chew toy, or an
indestructible rubber polymer bone. Dry kibble treats can be
purchased in bulk, or you can opt for natural treats that are
made with real meat and vegetables.
Whether you spend a lot or a little, your dog won't know the
difference. However, what he will know is how much love and
attention you lavish on him, and he'll be forever grateful. If
you figure affection and loyalty into the cost of owning a dog,
you may find that you get back everything you spent, and so much
more.

Steam baths were especially popular with the Greeks and Romans
in ancient history. The use of steam baths quickly spread to
Turkey, as well as Russia and Europe. Today, steam baths are
installed at almost any place for people to use and enjoy at a
reasonable cost.
The steam bath operates effectively at a relative humidity
above 100% and at temperatures between 43°C (110°F) and 46°C
(116°F). Hot Steam should be present permanently in a steam
bath. To maintain the steam or mist, an efficient steam
generator and an accurate control system is required. A
steam-tight room or cabin is also important to avoid steam from
escaping and wasting the steam produced.
Steam baths are a good way to relax and relieve an individual
from stress. The heat alleviates pain and inflammation and
relaxes the muscles. This is beneficial especially for people
with arthritis or muscle aches. The heat dilates the air
passageways of the lungs, facilitating effective breathing; this
is a big relief to people suffering from asthma.
Steam baths are helpful in purifying and detoxifying our skin
as the heat causes the increase of the flow of blood to the
skin. During steam baths, adults are known to sweat out about 2
lbs of water per hour, this process helps get rid of dirt and
filth from the skin pores. As a result the skin gives off a
healthy glow.
While in a steam bath, a state of hyperthermia (above the
normal state of 37.5 °C or 98.6ºF) is induced. This stimulates
the functioning of an individual's immune system, during this
time the growth and multiplication of viruses and bacteria is
forced to inhibit or slows down. Also, during this process, the
generation of white blood cells is increased and the production
of anti-bodies and cancer-fighting interferons speeds up.
Generally, steam heat decreases joints rigidity and muscular
pain. It also increases blood circulation and extensibility of
the tissues. It enhances total cleansing of the lymph system and
is very effective in removing impurities and toxins from the
skin. It improves vascular flow, thus enhancing the exchange of
nutrient, and oxygen between tissues and cells. Recently, steam
heat has been discovered to have a positive therapeutic effect
to infectious diseases and cancer.
The optimum health benefits of steam baths can be obtained by
observing the correct way of enjoying a steam bath. Here are the
necessary steps:
To do so, you must take a shower prior to the first session.
Your stay inside the steam bath should be according to your
personal sensitivity, it is advised not to go beyond 15 to 20
minutes per session. If you find the heat unbearable, cool water
or fresh air should be used in cooling off your skin. If you
have cold feet, you may take a warm footbath. Never take more
than 2 to 3 sessions in the steam bath. If other types of bath
are available, you may switch from one to another but ensure
that you are thoroughly cooled off after each session to avoid
overtaxing your circulation.

------------------ ARTICLE START ------------ ------
Red Sox Nation is waiting in anticipation for the 2008 MLB
season with the hopes of seeing back to back championships,
and their prospects look great. No one knows what the
season holds, but we can consider a few important things
that give the Red Sox an excellent chance of going to the
post season again at the very least. After all, the off
season was busy, especially with the entire steroids
controversy heating up after the Mitchell report was
issued. The good news is that during the off-season, the
Red Sox managed to keep most of the 2007's World Series
winning team intact.
Their pitching rotation, and their infield and outfield are
basically the same. Knuckleballer Tim Wakefield is back,
and Doug Mirabelli, the Sox backup pitcher, finalized a one
year deal to stick around. Big bats Ramirez and Ortiz will
be back too.
One of the biggest things that stops any team from making
it to the playoffs - whether its baseball, football,
basketball, etc. - is the loss of players that helped hold
the team together.
Missing team leaders can make a team lose their passion and
emotion. You lose that; you will lose games. And that's
what happened to the Red Sox after their 2004 World Series
win; they lost a number of their important players like
Pedro Martinez, Derek Lowe and Orlando Cabrera. Plus, when
you replace players, the coaches and staff has to spend
their time teaching the new players how their club
specifically plays the game.
One reason why key Boston players Mike Lowell and Curt
Schilling stuck around for less money and fewer contractual
years is because they know that the team has an excellent
chance of winning back-to-back World Series.
The outfielders will be same in '08 as well. This is the
last year of Manny's $160 million contract, but he may stay
past this year, especially if he has a good season.
The Red Sox outfield in 2008 will consist of superstar
Manny Ramirez in left field, J.D. Drew in right field, and
either Ellsbury or Crisp in center field. Both Ellsbury and
Crisp are still on the roster, so that may create a healthy
competition between the two for center field. A team needs
more than three men for the outfield to make it to the
playoffs anyway. Crisp underperformed last year, and
Ellsbury became a playoff hero last year, but both have
their strengths and weaknesses.
Consistency is big part of the game. The season is very
long, and stamina and consistency is what gets teams to the
playoffs.
Fortunately, Boston's pitching rotation looks like it is
going to be very similar to last year's. Beckett,
Schilling, Matsuzaka, Wakefield, and Lester or Bucholz is a
powerhouse lineup.
The first half of the Red Sox season looks only mildly
challenging. Based on the player's statistics and track
records alone, the Red Sox look like they ought to win the
'08 World Series if the line-up doesn't change, at least on
paper. But once again, these guys have to play with heart
and be consistent.
Injuries, illnesses, and bannings because of steroids
notwithstanding, the Boston Red Sox have a good chance at
going all the way once again. The team is strong and
although some players have filed for arbitration in order
to increase their salaries, there doesn't seem to be any
indication that they will leave the team. The Yankees are
still aimlessly drifting in an effort to finish filling
their roster.
There are also negotiations still in the works regarding
Johan Santana, a possible addition to the Red Sox's final
roster. Once again, only time will tell. But the two time
Cy Young Award winner would definitely make an impact on
the team. The Boston Red Sox need to snatch him up before
the Yankees or the Mets.
The Red Sox have an excellent chance of winning back to
back championships, and it's theirs to lose. If the Red Sox
can play with heart, consistency, stamina and stay
reasonably healthy, I expect to see them winning in October
again.

================== ARTICLE START ============ ======
Network marketing is very effective way to make money online
and it's not a get-rich quick scheme. It involves selling
memberships, subscriptions, and services to those people who
need them for some reasons. Services include financial planning,
legal services, and other services that people may need in exact
moment.
However there is a few requirements that have to be met in
order to become successful network marketer such as the will to
talk to people and ability to explain the benefits of these
services. Successful networking marketing businesses rely also
on generating additional contacts from those who have signed up
to receive services. People who are about to become your clients
usually require more information and want to make sure that
particular product or service will satisfy them and your role is
to provide all necessary information for them.
If you enjoy sales, you are confident about selling products
and want to earn a steady, decent income working part-time or
full-time, then networking marketing may be the right decision
for you. For every single sale you generate, you will be paid a
commission. Commissions usually tend to be higher than selling
products online, but in order to sell these services, you have
to do more work as your promotional campaign goes on. The main
key to success here is convincing others that they need to sign
up to receive certain services and this activity itself requires
patience and hard consistent work spent on follow-up emails,
calls, and other marketing tactics. For those who are retired,
but looking for an at-home opportunity, network marketing may be
the answer.
Depending on the company you work for, you may receive
training, advice, and a small salary until you earn your first
commission. The fact is that different people enjoy different
methods of marketing, ones of them enjoy networking online,
other over the phone, and yet another in person. You will have
to attend social functions, networking conferences, and other
events to continually find contacts who would be interested in
your services. Many people who enjoy attending social functions
are able to easily talk to people without sounding like they are
selling something. This is very useful skill in building
relationships with potential customers.
Before joining a network marketing group, find out everything
you can to decide if this type of work is suitable for you. Some
companies require that you make one sale a month. Anyway if you
don't want to commit to making one sale each month, then you may
want to find another company. Find out if the company offers
training as this could be invaluable to you when starting out.
If the company does not offer training, which is sometimes very
significant factor helping you to start off, you may need to
look elsewhere.
Network marketing is more about making contacts at first than
making a sale.Building your contacts list is the most important
thing and should be your priority. Interacting with people,
impressing and influencing them are the ones of the most
important things that will turn them into customers in the
future and put money in your pocket as result.
If you want to have the potential to earn an unlimited amount
each month, then network marketing may be for you. Even if you
are hesitant to find contacts and develop a sales pitch, this
job can be very challenging and rewarding financially. Depending
on your sales skills, there will be many opportunities for you
to earn a steady income and meet many new contacts along the
way.

================== ARTICLE START ============ ======
A Cuban Vacation is something more and more people take with
every passing year. Cuba and its capital Havana have become one
of the top tourist destinations in the Caribbean.
What is there to do on a Cuban Vacation apart from sit on a
beach, and drink rum and relax?
The fact is that holidays in Cuba are very much what you make
of them, because apart from the beach and the rum, a Cuba
vacation can be also cultural, exhausting, even breathtaking,
but one thing is sure your visit to Cuba will be absolutely
unforgettable.
To start with a Cuba vacation based on beaches, because Cuba
has some of the best beaches in the Caribbean. When you realize
there is an almost six thousand kilometer coastline, with 289
natural beaches you will understand why there are several that
are an outstanding place for a Cuba Family Holiday Package and
Vacation Deal. At the north end of Cuba you find powder sand and
a turquoise sea with waves from the Atlantic Ocean. In the south
there is the warm Caribbean Sea with virtually untouched
beaches. The more popular Cuba becomes as a tourist destination
the more difficult it is to find quiet tourist free beaches.
The following are well worth trying on your Cuban Vacation
Cayo Santa Maria on the north east coast is a small island
surrounded by coral reefs and seven miles of very quiet and
untouched beaches.
Cayo Levisa is accessed by boat from a place about two hours
west of Havana, and is covered by jungle surrounded by white
sand beaches, protected by coral reefs and very picturesque.
Playa Ancon is to the south nine miles from Trinidad, has six
miles of soft sand, is very sheltered and perfect for families.
This is more popular but still uncrowded.
Cayo Largo is on the east side of the island and has some of
the best diving reefs and white sand beaches. It takes a flight
or a six hour boat trip to get to, so not touristy at all.
Playa Santa Lucia is a thirteen mile beach, with calm water due
to the reef, and turquoise sea. Probably the most popular of the
beaches mentioned but never feels crowded due to its size.
All of these beaches feature hotels eminently suitable for a
Cuban vacation and certainly a Cuba Vacation Package can be
arranged.
For those tourists who are looking for more culture, then
culture vultures will love Havana. There are museums, and then
for the music lovers there are salsa clubs and live jazz.
On the other hand you can take to the open road and discover
open roads, classic cars, and breathtaking landscapes. As an
example might be the breathtaking landscapes and charming caves
at Vinales Valley.
For goodness sake hire a car, the roads are deserted, or
perhaps do some horse riding. On the other hand there are
significant numbers of wrecked ships to scuba dive and explore.
Cuba is exciting, and an amazing place considering it is still
Communist, but nevertheless a Cuban Vacation will open your eyes
to a perfect tourist destination, and you should be able to
enjoy a great Cuban Vacation Deal.

================== ARTICLE START ============ ======
If you have a child who has just turned 16 (or is going to turn
16 soon), you are probably a nervous wreck. Sitting in the car
while they are practicing is enough to give you a mild heart
attack, because of the way that they handle themselves in
traffic. After they get their license, you aren't going to be
able to sleep at night knowing that they are out alone in your
car. Plus, your car insurance rates are going to go up and cost
you an arm and a leg now.
Ever since your teenager turned 13, they have probably been
begging you to buy them a car for their 16th birthday. If you
can, you may buy them a used car that is safe and big enough, so
that when they get into their first crash they will be alright.
But, along with this car, you are also going to have to get good
car insurance that will cover them when they hit their first
parked car on a snowy day, get rear-ended for the first time,
and so on.
When shopping for car insurance quotes, you may be tempted to
go with the cheapest quote. When getting these car insurance
quotes, you are going to see a wide array of options and prices,
and it can be really confusing. It can kind of be like comparing
apples and oranges, because the cheap car insurance that you get
for about $100 a month for your child might actually be more
expensive in the long run than a policy that is a bit more
expensive and costs $120.
When purchasing car insurance, you are going to have to make
sure you are comparing apples with apples and oranges with
oranges. You may want to look at your car insurance and see
about getting a policy that is similar to yours. When talking to
the insurance agent, you may decide to up the liability
insurance, in case your son or daughter causes an accident.
The first place that parents should look for car insurance when
trying to get a policy for their teen son or daughter is from
their own insurance company. A lot of places will give you cheap
car insurance if you have more than one car or more than one
driver insured at the same place. You might get a 10% discount,
which can add up to hundreds of dollars over the course of the
year. Another thing to consider is to get car insurance from a
company that offers other insurance for your family, for
example, from the same company that offers your home owner's
insurance.
Car insurance for teenagers can be really tricky, and the best
thing to do is to shop around and get quite a few car insurance
quotes. Sure, you probably will end up going with the car
insurance company that you originally chose for your insurance,
but knowing what other companies offer for their prices will
help you to decide whether or not to change plans with your
teenager and get a better price. Cheap car insurance can really
be deceptive, so make sure that you are comparing the car
insurance you currently have with that different car insurance
company is offering.

================== ARTICLE START ============ ======
Refinancing is as popular as ever as many people are finding
that they can get better deals on their mortgage terms or their
interest rates than they currently have. Refinancing can be a
great idea for many consumers out there who are considering it.
If you refinance under the correct set of circumstances you
will be able to save hundreds or even thousands of dollars
during the year or the course of your loan. Making your
mortgage as affordable as possible is important to most
homeowners and refinancing will allow you to do just that.
When Refinancing Makes Sense
Refinancing can help you save a lot of money on your mortgage,
so when should you go for it? There has been a general rule in
the industry for years that says if the current rate is two
points lower than your mortgage rate you should refinance.
While this was the rule of thumb for a long time it is not
always true.
You don't have to wait for interest to drop by two points.
Instead you should think about how long you plan to be in your
home. If you plan to be in your home for 20 more years
refinancing for a 1% difference may be worth considering.
You may want to refinance when there is a huge drop in interest
rates as this is a good way to save money. While the above rule
was the rule for a long time, in recent years we often see huge
dips of more than 2% and if you plan on staying in your home for
more than two or three years you should jump on the opportunity.
Just a two-point difference could make hundreds of dollars of
difference each month and if you were able to drop the interest
rate by three or four percent you would save even more.
Many homeowners should consider refinancing when their
adjustable rate mortgage is about to adjust. A lot of
homeowners find that they are unable to comfortably pay their
mortgage when their interest rate begins to change, so when you
know that time is coming and you know that the rate is going to
go up by a lot, you would be well advised to refinance and see
if you can't do better. If nothing else, you may be able to
obtain a fixed rate loan, which makes sense if you are planning
to stay in the house.
Refinancing also makes sense if you would like to decrease the
amount of your monthly payment. Many people refinance after
they have been in the home for many years and have paid off a
good portion of their home.
Refinancing a smaller amount for a lower interest rate has been
known to save people hundreds of dollars each month. When you
consider that you could save tens of thousands of dollars over
the course of a mortgage refinancing simply makes sense for
those that are staying in their homes long term.
Refinancing is a good idea in a lot of situations but when you
go into the process make sure you look into all of the details.
There are usually fees and closing costs associated with the
process. If you are considering refinancing to save money you
will want to be aware of all of the cost involved to make the
most informed decision possible.

No Kenya Safari Tour would be complete without visiting a
private wildlife sanctuary, and Sangar Ranch Tented Camp in the
foothills of the Aberdare Mountains in Central Kenya could be
the right answer when you are planning your Kenyan safari this
year.
Sangare Tented Camp is located in a six thousand five hundred
acre private ranch in the most magnificent of settings. It
overlooks a lovely fresh water lake with Sangare Hill as a
backdrop. There are spectacular views across the vast savannah,
and this safari wilderness is home to elephants, buffalos,
zebras, giraffes, antelopes, leopards, warthogs, and many other
animals.
Accommodation is in 12 very luxurious and spacious tents,
furnished in rustic African style, including four poster beds, a
private verandah and a lounge overlooking the lake. The tents
have either two queen size beds or one King size bed In addition
all ensuite facilities with a flush toilet and shower.
The tents are positioned to give the perfect view of the
sunrise over the lake.
The main building which has a high thatched roof, has a lounge
with a lovely fire place, a dining room, and a breakfast
verandah. Drinks and snacks are available in the lounge
throughout the day, and the food served is from local produce
with all breads, pastries, and pies being home made.
There are a huge number of activities available to you at
Sangare Ranch Tented Camp to ensure this part of your Kenya
Safari Tour is unforgettable. There are things you will do here
that you can't do anywhere else on a Kenya safari.
Apart from Game Drives, where you can do a Sangare Ranch day
Game Drive, and a Night Drive. There is also the Aberdares
National Park Game Drive where you will hopefully see rhinos in
addition to the game mentioned earlier.
Something not to be missed although there is an additional
charge is an excursion to Solio Ranch where you may well see the
precious white rhino, cheetahs, black rhino amongst others. You
can add to this the night game walk where hopefully you will see
the leopard, or the bird walks with qualified naturalist who can
explain about the 300 species of birds to be found around
Sangare Lake. As if that wasn't enough on this part of your
Kenya Safari Tour you can go trekking, and view some of the
magnificent game on foot.
Mountain Peak Breakfast with a climb, and then views to die
for, there are of course Bush Lunches, Sundowners, BBQ dinner at
the famous and historic Mau Mau Caves. In terms of visits, there
is the Flower Farm, the Tea Farm.
For the slightly more adventurous there is horseback riding,
mountain biking, and boat riding on the lake, and then at the
end of another exhausting fulfilling day you can watch the local
traditional dancers and drummers around the bonfire.
Sangare Ranch Tented Camp which can be accessed by air from
Nairobi in under thirty minutes, is a great choice for part of
your Kenya Safari Tour, with great opportunities to be part of a
safari wilderness in Laikipia. What a great Kenya Safari Holiday
it will give you.
