First, you should understand the different business models that exist. Here are some of the more common ways to make money on the Internet:<br />Sell a Product<br />Most money in e-commerce is made by selling products - either physical or digital. Many of the same common sense rules apply whether you are selling online or "offline." Look for products with high margins, high demand, low competition, etc.<br /><span class="fullpost"><br /># Sell a Service<br />Many businesses sell services on the Internet. Some examples include Web hosting, domain name registration, hosted software applications, and comparison shopping services.<br /><br /># Sell Information<br />This can take one of two forms:<br /><br /> * Subscription sites: For a subscription site you must provide valuable, timely information that is difficult to get elsewhere.<br />One example is Consumer Reports. Some articles are available for free online, but a user must subscribe to an annual or monthly plan to get access to all the content.<br /> * E-books: E-books are popular because they can be downloaded instantly. If you are an expert on a topic that others want to learn about, consider writing your own e-book. Once the writing is done, the cost to produce and deliver an e-book is minimal.<br /><br /># Sell Advertising<br />Advertising makes big money on the Internet, but it can be hard for the little guy. If you have a site with a lot of traffic, though, you may be able to make some money by joining an ad network or incorporating Google AdSense into your site.<br /><br /># Become an Affiliate<br />An affiliate makes money by sending buyers to another merchant's web site. The merchant pays the affiliate either a flat fee per sale or a percentage of sales originating from the affiliate. To succeed you'll need expertise in search engine marketing or a web site that already attracts a lot of traffic. Affiliate models require little up-front investment and no inventory. However, you'll need to generate a lot of traffic to make money in affiliate marketing because revenues per sale are generally low.<br /><br />Source : <a href="http://onlinebusiness.about.com/">About.com</a><br />Picture: <a href="http://www.ahorre.com/">Ahhore.com</a><br /></span>AYNhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13865772802333604516noreply@blogger.com89tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8977593033646168142.post-75378725675062343262007-12-06T18:44:00.000+07:002007-12-06T18:55:17.964+07:00The Way To Cook To Lower Cholesterol<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg09O-8h1sS5R7m1uAqKdH7IzDyRxsqu6F9lYJoFTNCx3n0QPudQdLyOgPn-URbisRA_UvixmlZitxKB0R2QRPOt27p-rFoqxyMKVlIzrUk15hNxs8n41qtWsrL97SY0Gcxn1f7dYpQzCO7/s1600-h/food5.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg09O-8h1sS5R7m1uAqKdH7IzDyRxsqu6F9lYJoFTNCx3n0QPudQdLyOgPn-URbisRA_UvixmlZitxKB0R2QRPOt27p-rFoqxyMKVlIzrUk15hNxs8n41qtWsrL97SY0Gcxn1f7dYpQzCO7/s200/food5.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5140827150929036226" border="0" /></a><br />Are you worried about your cholesterol levels or do you have a family history of high cholesterol? If so then you should already be paying close attention to your diet and lifestyle. One of the most simple ways that you can keep your cholesterol in check is by changing the way you cook your food. It is not hard to eat a low cholesterol diet, and modifying the way you cook your food can help keep your heart and body healthy and happy.<br /><span class="fullpost"><br />To start with you should strictly limit the foods you eat which are high in saturated fat in your kitchen (and house), and use alternatives instead. You'll find when cooking that techniques such as grilling, baking and broiling (and microwaving), will help you control the levels of saturated fat in the food you eat. You can use a light stir-fry or perhaps a sauté, as long as you monitor the amount of oil you use, or use the more expensive virgin olive oil, which can be beneficial in small quantities.<br /><br />Another way you can reduce the amount of cholesterol in your diet is through the way you prepare your meat and poultry. You can easily lower the amount of saturated fat in the meat you eat by trimming or cutting off any fat you can see on the meat, or by buying better quality cuts of meat. Try to avoid frying food, instead roast, bake or broil the meat as mentioned earlier. If you decide to roast or bake the meat, you can use a rack to allow the fat to drain away, so you don't eat it with the meat. Alternatively purchase a George Foreman Lean Mean Grilling Machine, which will allow you to drain the excess fat away with ease.<br /><br />To keep your meat moist and tasty, use wine, vinegar, lemon juice or a low-fat oil as a marinade. If you like to cook soups or stews, which can be very healthy, tasty and filling when cooked properly, prepare them the day before and put in the fridge overnight. This will allow any fat in the stew or soup to rise to the top and harden, so you can remove it before re-heating and eating.<br /><br />One of the key components of a diet low in cholesterol is to ensure that you eat a lot of fruit and vegetables, and a wide variety of them. Try and find fresh fruits that you enjoy, so you can eat them as healthy snacks, of prepare and freeze to eat later. A lot of people ruin the benefit of the vegetables they eat, by covering them in excess salt (sodium chloride), which can raise your blood pressure. Instead use herbs and spices to flavour your veg. You can purchase ready made mixed herbal seasoning's from your local grocery shop. For example an Italian herb mix seasoning might contain herbs such as oregano, basil, rosemary and more. Others such as chives and parsley also give your food interesting flavours.<br /><br />When cooking your veg, try and only use a minimal amount of vegetable oil or spray, or even better use olive oil. Make sure you avoid butter or margarine, as both are sources of high saturated fats and sodium. Which is a doubly bad combination for your health, especially for people worried about cholesterol levels.<br /><br />These article has identified just a sample of cooking ideas and tips for your diet to help you lower your cholesterol. It might take a little time for you to get used to cooking using different methods, but the benefits for you health and your palette will quickly out weight the little extra time it may take.<br /><br />By : William H King<br />Source : <a href="http://www.articlecity.com/">ArticleCity</a><br />Picutre: <a href="http://www.deliciousadventures.com/">Delicious Adventure</a><br /><br /><br /><br /></span>AYNhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13865772802333604516noreply@blogger.com11tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8977593033646168142.post-45987830807805628312007-12-05T18:36:00.000+07:002007-12-05T18:56:21.471+07:00Digital Binocular Camera<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgGdW44b_aQtuIo0trnZQTm_j5N41UwzhzmL_KUB_vJkdFk2DzpwknyR-AdDMGen3ZHHM9g_BpvRUZi07OoNpla3sZsJ1TV-AUjBYRpVsf6sqT-V-vXQ0eonpzJtDYLSbDDh5Zpeb1eRxoa/s1600-h/binocular.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgGdW44b_aQtuIo0trnZQTm_j5N41UwzhzmL_KUB_vJkdFk2DzpwknyR-AdDMGen3ZHHM9g_BpvRUZi07OoNpla3sZsJ1TV-AUjBYRpVsf6sqT-V-vXQ0eonpzJtDYLSbDDh5Zpeb1eRxoa/s200/binocular.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5140454807329244082" border="0" /></a><br />No matter how far away you are Pro Viewer 5.0 megapixel Digital Binocular Camera will always get you the right shot. You'll know every time if you captured the right shot because you can view your images on the flip up 1.5" TFT LCD screen.<br />If you've ever taken a traditional digital camera to a sporting event then you know the anguish of snapping quality up close images. The moment you get home to download your images you notice that nearly every player looks as small as the action figures you had when you were a kid.<br /><span class="fullpost"><br />The Pro Viewer gets you 8x closer to the action. How close is that? Let's just say that you'll capture the panic in the quarterback's eyes just before the defensive end hammers him to the ground. Be careful what you photograph. One Pro Viewer user was thrown out of a stadium for taking pictures of the coach's play book from the bleachers. Now that's called getting close to the action.<br /><br />The Pro Viewer also takes AVI video clips. So imagine the excitement as a player knocks a game winning home run out of the park. Only now imagine going home and replaying the action on your computer in full-motion video. The Pro Viewer 5.0 megapixel Digital Binocular Camera has a slot for SD/MMC which will hold cards up to 1GB.

If you want to make some money from your blog it's a numbers game. The more traffic you get the more money you'll make. It's a simple equation.<br /><span class="fullpost"><br />However, when you first start a Blog and possibly for many months afterwards it can be a soul destroying experience as traffic to your site trickles in. It can be an up hill struggle to build steady, quality, targeted traffic. It takes dedication, focus and time.<br /><br />So how do you get more traffic to your Blog fast?<br /><br />To begin with you should build from the ground up and start with good content. You want the traffic you do draw to the site to stick around, read your content, maybe sign up for your newsletter or RSS feed, post a comment on their own Blog and ideally come back again and again.<br /><br />Blog traffic will build naturally if you create useful content for your readers and make contacts within the Blogging community. Although this sounds simple building Blog traffic is harder than one might think and there's much more you can do. Taking the time to learn and apply some simple traffic building techniques will see you speed past your competition.<br /><br />Regular updates are a must, a minimum of 3 times a week at least. These don't have to be major articles. A few paragraphs would suffice if time is tight. But if that's the case those paragraphs better be interesting.<br /><br />This will at least encourage the readers you do get to keep coming back. An active Blog with comments from current readers encourages more readers. It's the herd mentality in action. ;)<br /><br />Who wants to be the only reader on a Blog?<br /><br />Try to encourage interaction, be available to your readers and be quick to reply to comments. Visit your readers Blogs add comments there this may entice their readers to visit your Blog and boost your readership.<br /><br />Assume that every day is new, because you always have new readers. If you have a passion for your life, your business, your family, your interests whatever your Blog subject is and you share this with your readers they can't help but revisit your site.<br /><br />Bloggers also love to see other bloggers mention their site. Using a trackback ensures that they know about the mention, which will also increase your exposure and the possibility that they will post about your blog and introduce their audience to you.<br /><br />When you show a genuine interest in what another blogger is writing about, then that peaks their interest in you.<br /><br />Trackback can be one of the most effective methods of making connections within the blogging community.<br /><br />Traffic is the pulse of a blog, without traffic there are no readers, without readers there is no point keeping the blog. Overall remember good content, be active and available.<br /><br />Source: <a href="http://www.how-to-make-money-online.info/">How to make money online</a><br /><br /><br /><br /></span>AYNhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13865772802333604516noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8977593033646168142.post-11816809033655937902007-12-05T16:39:00.000+07:002007-12-05T17:38:34.541+07:00Diabetes Information - Symptoms, Types, Causes and Treatment<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj_ZfiH386KYpYG__AMtb2sXBVx_sfkpGZ1R3fiG1wnY-4H9qFaR6um0EXzLX6v5YDWjT3xjMvsxbG1Phnxc7QAtWiRVDk2fCIO12LPXZEmlzptFuMy2Qg0TiSVA715p9Li8OU86W6LJ7lZ/s1600-h/diabetes_test_8.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj_ZfiH386KYpYG__AMtb2sXBVx_sfkpGZ1R3fiG1wnY-4H9qFaR6um0EXzLX6v5YDWjT3xjMvsxbG1Phnxc7QAtWiRVDk2fCIO12LPXZEmlzptFuMy2Qg0TiSVA715p9Li8OU86W6LJ7lZ/s200/diabetes_test_8.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5140436347559805842" border="0" /></a><br />Sugar is part of a whole slew of meals. The carbohydrates that we eat are later on converted into sugar or glucose while it undergoes the processes inside our body. These sugars are what we use for energy. However, there are really foods that are pure sugar or contain a lot it, which can cause the sugar level in our blood. When this sugar level increase, we may suffer diabetes and other ailments.<br /><span class="fullpost"><br />What is Diabetes?<br /><br />Diabetes is a disease resulting from the increase of blood sugar level above its normal values. The sugars in the blood are supposed to be transported to the cells of the body. But if a person has diabetes, the sugar build up in the blood. The build up of sugar is caused one of the following reasons: either the pancreas is not producing enough hormones called insulin that helps the glucose get into the cells or the body can not make use of the insulin as it is supposed to be.<br /><br />Diabetes is a disease that exists not only on its own but could trigger a lot of complications and other diseases to surface. These diabetes complications include heart disease, blindness, kidney failure and amputations. It has become one of the major causes of death all over the world..<br /><br />Symptoms of Diabetes<br /><br />Like any other sickness, diabetes surface symptoms that should be monitored. These are physically manifested symptoms that could easily diagnosed so if anyone is suffering from the following, seeing a physician is recommended. Diabetes have the following signs: extreme hunger and thirst, excessive drying of the skin, unexplained weight loss, frequent urination, slow healing sores, tingling or numbness of hands or feet, sudden vision blurredness.<br /><br />When the diabetes is insulin-dependent, other symptoms include nausea, vomiting or stomach pains.<br /><br />Types of Diabetes<br /><br />There are three kinds of diabetes that could be developed to specific age range or condition of people. Insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus or the type 1 diabetes is commonly developed among children while non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus or the type 2 diabetes is developed among adults. There is also the kind of diabetes that only pregnant women can acquire. The gestational diabetes, though, is not permanent because it disappears as soon as the pregnancy is over; however, if it is not treated it can cause a threat to both the mother and the baby.<br /><br />Type 2 diabetes is affected by old age, obesity, family history of the ailment, history of gestational diabetes, impaired glucose tolerance, lack of physical activities and race or ethnicity.<br /><br />Causes of Diabetes<br /><br />Though researchers have found out what are the things that causes the acquisition of diabetes, the determination of the exact causes of the disease is yet to be discovered. They say that the causes of type 1 and type 2 diabetes are different. Type 1 seemed to be developed from environmental triggers like unidentified virus that attacks the pancreas and causes it to malfunction in producing insulin.<br /><br />Type 2 diabetes on the other hand is closely associated with being obese and regular physical activities can help prevent the development of which.<br /><br />Therapies and Treatment for Diabetes<br /><br />When a person has developed type 1 diabetes, his or her blood glucose levels should be closely monitored through regular glucose tests. Since most food intake contains sugar or substances that will later on be converted to sugar, it is necessary that the food to be eaten is also monitored or measured. Healthy diet, exercise and insulin injections are the basic treatments for type 1 diabetes. However, the insulin should be balanced with metabolism of the body in terms of physical activities and food intake.<br /><br />Treatment for type 2 diabetes is almost the same with that of type 1. Blood glucose should also be closely monitored; however, some people are required to take some oral medications to avoid blood sugar to increase beyond normal parameters. Since this type of diabetes is not insulin-dependent, insulin injections are not required.<br /><br />by:</span><span name="KonaFilter"><span><span style="font-size:85%;"><span style="font-size:85%;"> Dr John Anne</span></span></span></span><span class="fullpost"><br />Source: <a href="http://www.amazines.com/">Amazines</a><br />Picture from: <a href="http://test-diabetes.blogspot.com/">Diabetes Test</a><br /><br /><br /></span>AYNhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13865772802333604516noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8977593033646168142.post-22085545496457701552007-12-01T16:25:00.000+07:002007-12-01T16:44:27.544+07:00Orbitor- High Tech- Listening Device<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjQG_t_YGZiKVBVONKbpfOlMI2a7Fj6wk4Ve52p4AB4gHMSeqKPiDCNehyphenhyphen4_CTpMzQyKc4xr8bBhs3-1fONtsZ9nJnbj1n5WS0eAScUGI-azMDSfsVRK1Zh41agmXkMva65YUcubFNlcjqE/s1600-r/p0003759g.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg3hpWrhNs0n3NsZvKftzmAQ1kyC1MvyxqBkUdxhELQUcFcwykWRA_DSceYeLEM4b0DXPnpUmJrWm3dCzHrqTtQ5-MNZEbUCtSQZKlddwvdBt1er_UUm99oek4vmrqC3a79y4Nxm8erSRqn/s200/p0003759g.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5138936888577426290" border="0" /></a><br />Have you ever wished you could hear like Superman?

This means that a staggering 39.4 percent of all deaths during this year were attributable to heart disease. It is also the leading cause of death for both men and women.<br /><br />Cardiovascular diseases are typically the result of atherosclerosis, which is the buildup of plaque in the arteries. This buildup develops gradually over time, as soft fatty streaks form along the inner walls of arteries. As the buildup continues, these streaks begin to harden into plaque, which constricts the blood flow through the arteries. This can lead to a heart attack, the formation of blood clots, or stroke.<br /><span class="fullpost"><br />There are several risk factors that may contribute to whether or not you will develop some form of cardiovascular disease during your lifetime. Some of these risk factors are beyond your control, such as your gender and your genes, for instance. Men typically run a higher risk of developing cardiovascular disease than women, as do people who have other family members who have the disease. There are other risk factors, however, that can be controlled or eliminated by following a healthy lifestyle.<br /><br />Here are eight steps that you can take to have a healthy heart and lower your chances of developing cardiovascular disease:<br /><br />1. Know Your Risk Factors<br />It is important to be aware of any risk factors that you may possess. For example, if you have a parent or other close family member with cardiovascular disease, you are at a higher risk. The odds of developing cardiovascular disease also tend to increase as we age. People who are diabetic have an elevated risk of developing cardiovascular disease because chronic high blood sugar is associated with the narrowing of the arteries. People with diabetes also tend to have lower levels of "good" HDL cholesterol and increased levels of triglycerides (blood fats).<br /><br />2. Make Healthy Food Choices<br />Your diet can have a major impact on your chances of developing cardiovascular disease. Limit your intake of greasy, fried, or fatty foods and red meats. Fill your diet instead with fresh fruits and vegetables, lean meats such as poultry and seafood, and fiber-rich foods such as Quaker oatmeal and whole-grain breads.<br /><br />3. If You're Overweight, Get To A Healthy Weight And Maintain It<br />If you are currently overweight, your odds of developing cardiovascular disease are higher. A loss of just ten to twenty pounds can help lower your likelihood of developing cardiovascular disease. Work with your physician or dietitian to find a healthy eating plan that will work for you.<br /><br />4. Establish And Follow A Regular Exercise Program<br />You should engage in some form of physical activity for at least thirty minutes, several times a week. Consult with your family physician to see what forms of activity are appropriate for your age and current physical condition. You can also find ways to incorporate activity into your daily routine by doing things like gardening and house cleaning at a fast pace.<br /><br />5. Have Your Cholesterol Numbers And Blood Pressure Checked Regularly<br />Have your family physician check your cholesterol numbers and blood pressure at least once a year. If either of these sets of numbers is high, your chances of developing cardiovascular disease greatly increase. Your physician can help you modify your lifestyle by improving your diet and adding exercise in order to bring your numbers under control. In some cases, your physician may also prescribe medication to help return your cholesterol or blood pressure numbers to normal levels.<br /><br />6. If You Smoke, You Should Quit<br />Smoking is one of the leading causes of cardiovascular diseases. According to the American Medical Association, people can cut their risk of developing cardiovascular disease in half within one year of quitting smoking.<br /><br />7. Get A Handle On Your Stress<br />Stress may help contribute to heart disease. Stress can also cause your blood pressure to rise and may lead to unhealthy behaviors such as smoking or binging on unhealthy foods. Try practicing meditation or yoga as a way to combat stress. Take a few minutes out of each day and do something you enjoy, such as listening to music or reading, for example.<br /><br />8. Don't Ignore Possible warning Symptoms<br />That burning sensation in your chest may simply be the result of heartburn, but it could also be a warning sign of the presence of cardiovascular disease. Other symptoms may include a sense of tightness emanating from the breastbone and into the neck, jaw and arm or a shortness of breath. If you have any of these symptoms, don't casually dismiss them. Let your physician determine what is causing them and follow his advice.<br /><br />Heart disease is a leading cause of death in the United States for both men and women. While some of the causes are beyond your control, many of them are not. If you follow a healthy diet and lead an active lifestyle, you may be able to reduce your risk of heart disease. Work with your family physician to develop a lifestyle plan that is right for you.<br /><br />Source: <a href="http://www.quakeroatmeal.com/">The Quaker Oats Company</a><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /></span>AYNhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13865772802333604516noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8977593033646168142.post-90451896552374146312007-10-28T08:07:00.000+07:002007-10-28T08:12:14.360+07:00Notebook Purchase Review<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhf_aZJ1tkqiDwrh3VwzTz4YvDOo-AXe-VcB_mQryfEFgNZBn5D-xISGOss1-1tRwxQR4_jHpx8alvsKJNtCAHrkzPrrio4xbgRDcAkSuzlTFmfs_IJGkjIQg3OTJqwqXgKMzOQvp2W96ht/s1600-h/Notebook_cluster_wideweb__470x350.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhf_aZJ1tkqiDwrh3VwzTz4YvDOo-AXe-VcB_mQryfEFgNZBn5D-xISGOss1-1tRwxQR4_jHpx8alvsKJNtCAHrkzPrrio4xbgRDcAkSuzlTFmfs_IJGkjIQg3OTJqwqXgKMzOQvp2W96ht/s200/Notebook_cluster_wideweb__470x350.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5126189158939905570" border="0" /></a><br />In the early nineties few people could image the impact that notebook would have in the computer industry. Its unique portability made the notebook a product in a class by itself. Soon, it became a must-have product, to those who were constantly moving from office, home or school. Nowadays, it is one of the best selling computer hardware items of all times.<br /><br />With a Notebook, you can carry your work around conveniently, without having to worry about the myriads of wires, hardware and space needed to keep a desktop. Also, you can choose whether to work from office or home. A Notebook is really handy in any situation.<br /><span class="fullpost"><br />Portability and mobility are the great advantages of having a Notebook, or laptop. In your Internet search prior to buying a Notebook, you will be presented with a great variety and quantity of information. This can be quite bewildering, so you have to know what features you need in a Notebook.<br /><br />Upgradabeality is an important consideration: the Notebook you choose now may be the one best suited to your current needs; but in future, you may find it necessary to upgrade it. You will not want to invest valuable time and money in purchasing a Notebook which you will have to discard or sell off in the near future, because of what you might feel as the inadequacy of your current one. When you consider upgradabeality, you have to think of memory or RAM, and hard disk space.<br /><br />The CPU, or Processor, is the engine which will drive your Notebook`s performance. So you should choose the fastest CPU that is available, depending on your budget and on what you will be using the Notebook for. Tasks like word processing, emailing and surfing the Net do not require a fast CPU. But using CPU intensive applications, such as processing spreadsheets or playing games will work better with a fast CPU.<br /><br />The RAM, or memory is another important feature, and the more memory you have, the better. Your Notebook`s performance will be greatly affected if you do not have sufficient memory. The minimum recommended these days is 1 Gigabyte of memory. Some experts recommend a minimum of 2 Gigabytes. The more memory you have, the better the performance and multitasking you can expect from your Notebook.<br /><br />The speed and capacity of the hard disk of your Notebook are important, for this is where you will install all your software and your data (documents, database, photos etc). Make sure that you have enough room to store all your information which can be readily accessed. 40 Gigabytes of hard disk space is considered the minimum these days. Consider getting a Notebook with 80 Gigabytes of disk space.<br /><br />Do note that Apple Notebooks are now using Intel processors, which means that if you have a hard disk with sufficient disk space, you can partition your disk drive and install both Apple Mac software and Windows software, and switch between the two.<br /><br />You also have to consider the screen of your Notebook, for this is what you are going to be staring at, and you have to be happy with its resolution and size. You will want a crisp, bright screen with good viewing, especially for photos. You can go and look at different screens at a local electronics store, and try to figure out which size and resolution you like best. Just be sure that the screen is an Active Matrix one and not Passive Matrix.<br /><br />The other features you will be looking at to connect to your Notebook are external devices such as a mouse, printer, portable disk drive, scanner etc. Good luck!<br /><br />By <a href="http://www.free-articles-zone.com/author/6841">Roberto Sedycias</a><br /><br /><br /><br /></span>AYNhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13865772802333604516noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8977593033646168142.post-36642837650240657062007-10-25T07:23:00.000+07:002007-10-25T07:47:34.511+07:0010 Significant Sharp Ways to Increase Your Affiliate Commissions<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhzEhpz_zwyoTtXQmCI_oUm0Q5EnrY4fT1dSblCOhQMyCYAiVu1yRW1WL5S3LcMrdLuSCBxdFoquRfzMHuEIZUEjck3i-Ikrfbz8hnodw4jzJ9XwRL6L64y1AMiYsMvZwI7yP7mkvA0FJrh/s1600-h/money3.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhzEhpz_zwyoTtXQmCI_oUm0Q5EnrY4fT1dSblCOhQMyCYAiVu1yRW1WL5S3LcMrdLuSCBxdFoquRfzMHuEIZUEjck3i-Ikrfbz8hnodw4jzJ9XwRL6L64y1AMiYsMvZwI7yP7mkvA0FJrh/s200/money3.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5125068812425776658" border="0" /></a><br />Millions of people sign up for affiliate programs, but have no clue on how to promote and market them effectively to generate piles of cash.<br />In this post there are 10 significant sharp ways to start generating alot of sales and commissions.<br /><span class="fullpost"><br />The 10 ways are:<br />1.

You don't need to make a high investment, no need to create your own products and no need to have staff. Just promote and recommend other people's products to your website visitors and earn commission. When done properly, you can earn a big commission check. Some super affiliates make US$100,000 just by recommending other products. This article tells you how you can make use of affiliate programs and make money online.<br />Affiliate marketing, affiliate programs, income generators, successful affiliates, traffic, top affiliate income. All these terms are used when we talk about making money with Affiliate programs.<br /><span class="fullpost"><br />The income potential of this type of marketing is really unlimited.<br /><br />Yet the success rate of affiliates is quite dismal. Statistics show that approximately 12% of affiliates of any given program account for approximately 87% of that programs affiliate income. In other words very few affiliates ever make a sale or if they do they make very few of them.<br /><br />How can this be? Think about what you are given as an affiliate.<br /><br />You are basically handed the opportunity to reap financial benefits from some one else's money and hard work. What other business could you start that boast these requirements:<br /><br />NO PRODUCTS, NO INVESTMENT, NO RETURNS TO DEAL WITH, AND NO HASSLES!<br /><br />Well after studying affiliate marketing the reason for success or failure lies in training. I am a very big proponent of using affiliate marketing as an income generating stream for any business, but especially for the small Internet business.<br /><br />Just look at the benefits listed above. Talk about a low budget way to start a business! Let me say this to you right now, you can make a lot of money with affiliate programs if you are willing to take the time to learn how to do it right.<br /><br />That's right it takes time not money.<br /><br />Any affiliate program that ask for money from you to join forget it and move along. No legitimate affiliate program will cost you anything to join. What are the keys to being a successful affiliate marketer?<br /><br />1). Research the product and the company thoroughly and choose wisely. Remember your reputation is on the line.<br /><br />2). If possible use the product before you recommend it. This way you will gain first hand knowledge of its quality and your sales copy will have more conviction.<br /><br />3). Do not over affiliate! It is far more profitable to have a few products that you believe in than a flea market of blue hyper links pasted all over your web site.<br /><br />How annoying is it when you click on a web site and banners are flashing, lights are blinking, and you see more blue than in the Pacific ocean.<br /><br />To sum it up, affiliate marketing can increase to profits of any business without costing you a cent for additional inventory or shipping.<br /><br />When you understand the "How To's" of promoting affiliate programs, Not just joining and slapping up a banner or a link on your site, I mean taking the time to learn how to generate a lot of traffic to your affiliate pages, you can easily earn an additional several thousand dollars per month.<br /><br />In business you will either need to invest Time or Money to be successful at anything that you do. Affiliate marketing is worth the investment of your time to learn how to do it right.<br /><br />by: Jim Dunn<br />Source: <a href="http://www.articleplus.com/">Articles for Internet Business</a><br /><br /><br /><br /></span>AYNhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13865772802333604516noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8977593033646168142.post-7869926931765133992007-10-19T10:05:00.000+07:002007-10-19T10:12:35.788+07:00Apple iPhone Smart Gadget Phone<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjF25Uv3KNdkETDC1OLgcyKRqdpyUew1HhgGFWZtVzw3_ebDEuTe0-oJ3tUozLsbZURP_UDQ9EtnKleKLe1A9kc0tpYsBcnyItZ9ctrlkgt1XxaTsSLNhXpk7QbLFfPH9zZJhp2DI_M6diH/s1600-h/apple-iphone-2.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjF25Uv3KNdkETDC1OLgcyKRqdpyUew1HhgGFWZtVzw3_ebDEuTe0-oJ3tUozLsbZURP_UDQ9EtnKleKLe1A9kc0tpYsBcnyItZ9ctrlkgt1XxaTsSLNhXpk7QbLFfPH9zZJhp2DI_M6diH/s200/apple-iphone-2.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5122880288317100786" border="0" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjVd7yCtqcrDUxJTPZo_hyphenhyphenZ281i-hjVBq_v-3ZhRqzTvi_VnHCwkCxnsA33nyTNXmjgQDoVxElagR7DNtGbibMU1nahLm1IsZdNHTcz9Xbn5XoDgdUEQ5fpXuMccbi8kg7MtltXFDjBq4vi/s1600-h/apple-iphone.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjVd7yCtqcrDUxJTPZo_hyphenhyphenZ281i-hjVBq_v-3ZhRqzTvi_VnHCwkCxnsA33nyTNXmjgQDoVxElagR7DNtGbibMU1nahLm1IsZdNHTcz9Xbn5XoDgdUEQ5fpXuMccbi8kg7MtltXFDjBq4vi/s200/apple-iphone.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5122879901770044130" border="0" /></a><br />iPhone is a device of quadruple-band GSM with the EDGE and support of WiFi, it has of the 3.5 “display with touch of the Pixel 320×480 which it comes with a digital camera from 2 megapixel and 4Gb or 8Gb from memory.

There is onscreen the keyboard for these people who must make typewriting, but otherwise it is much an operation of point and click (or tap).<br />Apple iPhone specification:<br />Network:GSM 850/900/1800/1900<br />Data:GPRS + EDGE + WiFi<br />Screen:320×480 pixels<br />Camera:2 megapixels<br />Size:PDA-style device,115×61x12mm / 135 grams<br />Bluetooth:Yes<br />Memory card:No<br />Infra-red:No<br />Polyphonic:Yes<br />Java:Not specified<br />Battery life:5 hours talk / 16 hours video playback<br />OS:OS X<br /><br />Up to now, so impressive.. but there are couples of the things which are immediately obvious like disadvantages. Firstly, the potrait/landscape display of Pixel modem 480×320 of portrait is impressive, but we estimate that the devices of Internet require at least for 640 Pixel of width, and beats of Nokia N800 the iPhone with 4 “the display of the Pixel 800×480 that the iPhone cannot simply match. The other disadvantage is that it is not a device 3G, although it supports the EDGE. With recognition however, Apple made with this a compound of quadruple-band GSM, thus this means that it should be world available.<br /><br />The Apple iPhone is a sleek, elegant looking device with a black-and-metal design. At 115 x 61 x 11.6mm, the iPhone isn’t as big as you might expect.. and the 135 gram weight is pretty reasonable for this type of smartphone.<br /><br />Source: <a href="http://www.elitezoom.com/">EZ Review<br /><br /></a></span>AYNhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13865772802333604516noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8977593033646168142.post-36470434135584577872007-10-18T19:07:00.000+07:002007-10-18T19:19:43.851+07:00What Makes Garlic Good for You<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhm6sBdrbAwGaFX1onIBJRKDNcUhgR-BFoCpJ9zEhtY-iRsd1aEbH6CbA9MwvoGEUKM8NiISPakZ-OqvF17kzJ9OTdsZN7zxH0W4N2YbTdut7ThdQJjhw0NRfDnRdVR71gF4RFf0CguJV-4/s1600-h/garlic.533span.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhm6sBdrbAwGaFX1onIBJRKDNcUhgR-BFoCpJ9zEhtY-iRsd1aEbH6CbA9MwvoGEUKM8NiISPakZ-OqvF17kzJ9OTdsZN7zxH0W4N2YbTdut7ThdQJjhw0NRfDnRdVR71gF4RFf0CguJV-4/s200/garlic.533span.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5122650301408334546" border="0" /></a><br />Garlic has long been touted as a health booster, but it’s never been clear why the herb might be good for you. Now new research is beginning to unlock the secrets of the odoriferous bulb.<br /><br />In a study published today in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, researchers show that eating garlic appears to boost our natural supply of hydrogen sulfide. Hydrogen sulfide is actually poisonous at high concentrations — it’s the same noxious byproduct of oil refining that smells like rotten eggs. But the body makes its own supply of the stuff, which acts as an antioxidant and transmits cellular signals that relax blood vessels and increase blood flow.<br /><span class="fullpost"><br />In the latest study, performed at the University of Alabama at Birmingham, researchers extracted juice from supermarket garlic and added small amounts to human red blood cells. The cells immediately began emitting hydrogen sulfide, the scientists found.<br /><br />The power to boost hydrogen sulfide production may help explain why a garlic-rich diet appears to protect against various cancers, including breast, prostate and colon cancer, say the study authors. Higher hydrogen sulfide might also protect the heart, according to other experts. Although garlic has not consistently been shown to lower cholesterol levels, researchers at Albert Einstein College of Medicine earlier this year found that injecting hydrogen sulfide into mice almost completely prevented the damage to heart muscle caused by a heart attack.<br /><br />“People have known garlic was important and has health benefits for centuries,'’ said Dr. David W. Kraus, associate professor of environmental science and biology at the University of Alabama. “Even the Greeks would feed garlic to their athletes before they competed in the Olympic games.'’<br /><br />Now, the downside. The concentration of garlic extract used in the latest study was equivalent to an adult eating about two medium-sized cloves per day. In such countries as Italy, Korea and China, where a garlic-rich diet seems to be protective against disease, per capita consumption is as high as eight to 12 cloves per day.<br /><br />While that may sound like a lot of garlic, Dr. Kraus noted that increasing your consumption to five or more cloves a day isn’t hard if you use it every time you cook. Dr. Kraus also makes a habit of snacking on garlicky dishes like hummus with vegetables.<br /><br />Many home chefs mistakenly cook garlic immediately after crushing or chopping it, added Dr. Kraus. To maximize the health benefits, you should crush the garlic at room temperature and allow it to sit for about 15 minutes. That triggers an enzyme reaction that boosts the healthy compounds in garlic.<br /><br />Garlic can cause indigestion, but for many, the bigger concern is that it can make your breath and sweat smell like…garlic. While individual reactions to garlic vary, eating fennel seeds like those served at Indian restaurants helps to neutralize the smell. Garlic-powder pills claim to solve the problem, but the data on these supplements has been mixed. It’s still not clear if the beneficial compounds found in garlic remain potent once it’s been processed into a pill.<br /><br />by: Chris Ramirez<br />Source: The New York Times<br /><br /><br /></span>AYNhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13865772802333604516noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8977593033646168142.post-55641592975830040552007-10-18T11:15:00.000+07:002007-10-18T11:29:55.100+07:0010 Important Internet Marketing Tips<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiJVgGNIBv0iDirPBouPbGyYHIniCgJ3_OZY39lvgIdgLlHmompM2GVBMBZsFs3USaAn_eS3dgPsbLtUBOyThPj5WLsX9rhFFziDQFO3hn9vmoYeJFLPkTVRfi-dTosTV-1JFJmVKxgi-iS/s1600-h/internet+business1.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiJVgGNIBv0iDirPBouPbGyYHIniCgJ3_OZY39lvgIdgLlHmompM2GVBMBZsFs3USaAn_eS3dgPsbLtUBOyThPj5WLsX9rhFFziDQFO3hn9vmoYeJFLPkTVRfi-dTosTV-1JFJmVKxgi-iS/s200/internet+business1.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5122529118906077890" border="0" /></a><br />This article states 10 important internet marketing tips and reminds you what should be done when you promote websites. Remember to read this internet marketing checklist:<br /><br />Each of the following Ten Marketing Tips is based on a highly effective - but often overlooked marketing tactic. How many are you using? How many have you overlooked?<br /><span class="fullpost"><br />Tip 1: Insulate yourself against the impact of change by increasing the number of products and services you offer ...and by using a variety of different marketing methods. Only a small portion of your total business will be affected if the sales of one product declines or the response to one marketing method drops.<br /><br />Tip 2: Customers are prospects too. Stay in contact with them. Find or develop other products or services you can offer them. It's easier to make a sale to a previous customer than to someone who never bought from you.<br /><br />Tip 3: Avoid making any claim that sounds exaggerated ...even if it is true. A bold claim creates doubt in your prospect's mind and jeopardizes the sale. Reduce any bold claims to a more believable level.<br /><br />Tip 4: Express numerical claims as odd numbers with fractions or decimals. For example, "Our clients save 17.7 percent" sounds more believable than "Our clients save 20 percent" ...even if 20 percent is the accurate number.<br /><br />Tip 5: To create an absolutely irresistible offer, combine a special discount price and a set of valuable bonuses in the same offer.<br /><br />Tip 6: Develop a series of 4 or 5 different special offers. Use them one at a time with an expiration deadline. When one offer expires, replace it with the next offer and a new deadline. Continuously recycle through the same series of offers. This enables you to keep using special offers to generate sales without taking time to develop new ones.<br /><br />Tip 7: If you're attracting many prospects who really don't have (or can't get) the money to buy your product or service ...you need to change your market. Target a market where prospects have an intense desire for the benefits produced by your product or service - AND the money to buy it.<br /><br />Tip 8: Set yourself apart from competitors by offering an exclusive benefit your competitors cannot copy ...or one they're not willing to copy. One business owner I know includes his personal phone number on every order. His competitors don't - and they are not likely to start making themselves that accessible to customers.<br /><br />Tip 9: Advertising copy produces the biggest response when each reader can believe the message was written specifically for him or her. As you write any sales message, visualize you're writing to one person instead of to a large group of people. This will help you write in a less formal and more personal style.<br /><br />Tip 10: Most sales are not made on the first contact. Develop a method to capture and save the names and contact information of prospects who don't buy from you. Follow up periodically. A little gentle coaching will eventually convert many of them into buyers.<br /><br />Each of these 10 marketing tips implements a simple but highly effective marketing tactic. Take action now to apply those you overlooked. You'll be surprised by how much business it produces for you.<br /><br />by: Bob Leduc<br />Source: <a href="http://www.articleplus.com/">Articles for Internet Business</a><br /><br /></span>AYNhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13865772802333604516noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8977593033646168142.post-16126062592887142802007-10-18T08:14:00.000+07:002007-10-18T08:17:51.115+07:00Pocket Spy Camera Lighter<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh08eJGFDtQJHe6umD0lyM6MqBPvbs3oO5fTYZFrNPZdcE3P6iB4fw3ph-F9peEnQC91WFoeSbnp7zMJlTMfwvbRpnT2gM-WzYcOTS9ElZft8zv9Z5u1bVs1Wt4tjTlODnm5aRzOC4CGsS1/s1600-h/pocketspycamerazippolighter.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh08eJGFDtQJHe6umD0lyM6MqBPvbs3oO5fTYZFrNPZdcE3P6iB4fw3ph-F9peEnQC91WFoeSbnp7zMJlTMfwvbRpnT2gM-WzYcOTS9ElZft8zv9Z5u1bVs1Wt4tjTlODnm5aRzOC4CGsS1/s200/pocketspycamerazippolighter.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5122479619407991474" border="0" /></a><br />What would James Bond be without his small, innovative gadgets disguised as everyday objects? Now you can have the latest in spy gadgets just like Bond, James Bond. This high-tech gadget is the l'espion S Pocket Spy Camera. The l'espion S is a tiny digital camera deviously disguised as a Zippo lighter. Using ST Micro technology that captures highly-detailed images with unbelievably small file sizes, the Pocket Spy Camera can hold over 300 images. It also has a surveillance mode so you can spy on your enemies without being seen.<br /><span class="fullpost"><br />The camera can be set to automatically take pictures at preset intervals up to 90 minutes apart over the course of 19 days.

Running on only 1 AAA battery and only 2.25" by 1.5" the l'espion S Digital Pocket Spy Camera will make you as stealth and sly as James Bond.<br /><br /><br /><br /></span>AYNhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13865772802333604516noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8977593033646168142.post-46809030311524145112007-10-17T13:58:00.000+07:002007-10-17T14:04:52.782+07:00Flu Scare - Are We Aware<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjZjTFXQLXLAAjg7fUTjEf-hexvC8W-yynUNh3oUZD_R_Ro9IPURVz1ESmQ_j1y3AaF-jSk6w9CU9KWflQ8qflo5Tapug7Rx5VpnNgIKJIGtOYgp879I1L74Yy1DiLTwtvHrzVLhsYZykM4/s1600-h/a-rooster-is-vaccinated-against-bird-flu.jpg"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjZjTFXQLXLAAjg7fUTjEf-hexvC8W-yynUNh3oUZD_R_Ro9IPURVz1ESmQ_j1y3AaF-jSk6w9CU9KWflQ8qflo5Tapug7Rx5VpnNgIKJIGtOYgp879I1L74Yy1DiLTwtvHrzVLhsYZykM4/s200/a-rooster-is-vaccinated-against-bird-flu.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5122198088596705954" /></a><br />It is always said that awareness can keep you away from danger. And when the scare is as threatening as bird flu, most people would not dare to take any chances. As the bird flu virus strike different parts of the world, the latest entrant been India, poultry industry is naturally the worst casualty. Though recent studies have confirmed that the flu virus is not food-borne and the poultry meat cooked at 70 degrees eliminates all possibility of the deadly H5N1 strain of bird flu virus, yet people are reluctant to take chances. Such is the extent of the scare that hundreds of people with cold and cough were turning up at medical camps in bird flu-hit areas for a check-up as precautionary measures.<br /><span class="fullpost"><br />Bird Flu, medically termed avian influenza is a contagious disease of animals caused by viruses that are highly species-specific and normally infect only birds but on rare occasions crossed the species barrier to infect humans as well. It spreads very rapidly through poultry flocks, causes disease affecting multiple internal organs, and has a mortality that can approach 100%, often within 48 hours. Symptoms of bird flu are very specific:<br /><br />* In birds: Birds that sit still for unusually long spell, have dirty feathers, swollen necks and red spots on their feet.<br /><br />* In meat: Pink spots in the usually white chicken meat and runny yolk in eggs.<br /><br />The bird flu virus spread-theory across the world has nailed the migratory birds as the possible suspect. Sick migratory birds shed the flu virus with their saliva, faeces and nasal secretions which in turn infect domestic birds when in contact with secretions or contaminated surfaces. Influenza viruses are highly unstable and have the ability to mutate rapidly, potentially jumping from one animal species to another. Direct contact with infected poultry, or surfaces and objects contaminated by their faeces, is presently considered the main route of human infection. The disease caused by H5N1 follows an unusually aggressive clinical course where primary viral pneumonia and multi-organ failure are common, with rapid deterioration and high fatality.<br /><br />Though there has been no breakthrough in developing a vaccine for bird flu, yet the FDA has approved Tamiflu (generic Oseltamivir phosphate), an oral anti-viral drug for the treatment of uncomplicated influenza in adults whose flu symptoms have lasted more than two days. It belongs to a group of medicines called neuraminidase inhibitors. Their main task is to attack the flu virus and prevent it from spreading to other parts of the body. Tamiflu has since been used to treat type A and B influenzas but it has also been found effective against the avian flu virus H5N1 strain. Further Tamiflu information is available from health practitioners, print media and online information sites. So do not panic, bird flu is no scare if you are aware of all eventualities. <br /><br />by: Jenifer D'souza<br />Source: <a href="http://www.healthguidance.org">Health Guidance<br /></a><br /><br /><br /></span>AYNhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13865772802333604516noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8977593033646168142.post-12907645762553035712007-10-17T13:38:00.000+07:002007-10-17T13:49:13.138+07:00High Speed Internet Connection<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiQg1mKqu9Qw3AsuVwDjhmAeYxH7uPFzt59Ub-yJOCyA_vKtcFcRWJG5HPer6W43Ayvl4d4Drn8j3-9hD2Qf0Do59RYzsBZBW0iih2kntRm_LVGy_7wU3ZhOfPKCMYHn8kYA4K0Bmu-kCiZ/s1600-h/internet.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiQg1mKqu9Qw3AsuVwDjhmAeYxH7uPFzt59Ub-yJOCyA_vKtcFcRWJG5HPer6W43Ayvl4d4Drn8j3-9hD2Qf0Do59RYzsBZBW0iih2kntRm_LVGy_7wU3ZhOfPKCMYHn8kYA4K0Bmu-kCiZ/s200/internet.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5122194064212349586" border="0" /></a><br />Internet has almost become a lifeline for the new generation. Many businesses now depend entirely on the Internet. People residing in different parts of world are able to talk to each other via the medium of Internet. Video conferencing is a live example of it. Many marriages are also made with the help of the Internet. The list of benefits that Internet provides is limitless.<br /><br />But, what would you do when you have a slow speed internet connection that takes a lot of time? That internet connection would simply be useless to you.<br /><span class="fullpost"><br />The speed at which you are connected to the Internet plays a very important role in enjoying the advantages offered by it. For example, suppose one of your relatives who is residing overseas, has sent you a holiday clip. Now, if your Internet speed is slow then first of all it would take a long time to load the mail website. Then you would enter your user name and password. It would again take extra time to verify it. Also, downloading the clip would be very slow, even if its size is very small. Overall, you can say that having a low speed Internet connection (dial-up connection) is not a good thing.<br /><br />There are many choices available for a high speed Internet connection. DSL, Cable and Satellite are some of them. You can select the best one from them. Here are some of the common benefits that all these high speed Internet connections provide.<br /><br />* Viewing of streamlining clips or videos is very easy and fast in these connections. Dial-up connections may not even allow their access. * You can upload web pages and download any kind of information or software with more than twice the speed of dial-up connection. * Downloading of images and huge e-mail files can be done almost promptly. * High speed Internet connection has proven to be a boon for all businessmen. They can now access the world wide web within a few seconds. Their businesses have been highly benefited through efficient and quick video conferencing which would have been impossible in a slow dial-up connection. * For those people who work from home, a high speed Internet connection can assist them in increasing their overall work efficiency and output. * On a long term basis, the high speed Internet connection can prove to be highly economical.<br /><br />DSL: The best choice for high speed internet connection Now-a-days, DSL has become the leading choice for a high speed Internet connection. DSL works on existing telephone lines. With a DSL connection you can browse the web and talk on the phone at the same time. Generally, a DSL connection requires a DSL router, a dedicated phone line and a network card or a modem for each system. The installation of DSL at your location is the responsibility of the service provider. Last but not the least, this high speed Internet connection is offered at very affordable prices.<br /><br />by: Toh Poh<br /><br />Source: <a href="http://www.articlecity.com/">Articlecity.com</a><br /><br /><br /><br /></span>AYNhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13865772802333604516noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8977593033646168142.post-47416380697129382262007-10-17T13:06:00.000+07:002007-10-23T15:47:14.997+07:00Pure Bottled Water and Your Body<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjFl1pOTGTorHGlek1TcbpIUbkBa3j7qVJgqu0NG4to-V4ufbbiwCTed34hjEGArMMLkqyRinnjHjb94bZHxGizxbzByMqvOAUi3MRxOl58fK7dMYSvV6q2jlKyGwkFynxcQ8vLoHySGNJV/s1600-h/22861937.jpg"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjFl1pOTGTorHGlek1TcbpIUbkBa3j7qVJgqu0NG4to-V4ufbbiwCTed34hjEGArMMLkqyRinnjHjb94bZHxGizxbzByMqvOAUi3MRxOl58fK7dMYSvV6q2jlKyGwkFynxcQ8vLoHySGNJV/s200/22861937.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5122187226624414322" /></a><br />The benefits of good health cannot be overemphasized for those who wish to lead a happy lifestyle. While good health does not guarantee happiness it is certainly a key building block for a future of well being, contentment and serenity.<br /><br />Pure Bottled Water is a good starting point at building a healthy lifestyle.<br /><br />What are the basics of good health? <br />Like most events in nature, development and maintenance of good health and a healthy lifestyle are simple in concept but take some work and dedication to achieve.<br /><br />* Healthy diet<br />* Exercise<br />* Minimize stress on a daily basis<br /><br /><span class="fullpost"><br />Almost all of the common diseases that threaten us today can be avoided to a great degree by eating right, adopting a program of regular exercise, and stress reduction through techniques like meditation.<br /><br />The Role Of Pure Water as part of a Healthy Diet.<br /><br />Daily consumption of pure water is essential to a proper diet. Basically, the human body can survive for extended periods without food but can only last for a few days without water. Water is the essential element of your body: water cools the body and is essential for the proper functioning of all the major body processes.<br /><br />Is Our Drinking Water Pure?<br /><br />In the whole world only 3% of all the water is drinkable and of that 3%, pollution is taking its toll. Much of the potentially drinkable water is now so polluted that it is undrinkable. Municipalities in the western word attempt to supply drinking water but only do so with contaminants and bacteria that is covered up by significant amounts of chlorine.<br /><br />Scholars Have Noticed<br /><br />There have many studies of contaminated water and its effects on the human body. Many scholars recommend the use of purified distilled water as a healthy substitute for contaminated water. Many experts have published opinions on the subject (see: Water Purification: http://mizar5.com/distill/BestPurification.html)<br /><br />Other experts such as Dr. Andrew Weil (http://www.aquaprix.com/archive/drw_cda.html) explore the benefits of distilled water and explode many of the myths surrounding this form of purified water.<br /><br />The basic question many scholars as is “Why do people harm their health with adulterated drinking water when pure water is available?”<br /><br />How Much Pure Water Do You Need?<br /><br />To stay hydrated, you need to drink at least half your body weight in ounces of pure water (spread out over the day). Therefore, if you weigh 150 pounds, you need at least 75 ounces of pure water a day. Remember, you cannot drink too much pure water-the more the better.<br /><br />How Do You Know If You Are Hydrated?<br /><br />Your urine should be almost clear once every 24 hours. Remember: Thirst is not a good guide-by the time you experience thirst, you are already 2-3% dehydrated, which means your energy is depleted by 20-30%.<br /><br />What Counts Towards Your Pure Water Intake?<br /><br />The following sources of pure water can count towards your daily quota<br /><br />Distilled/Oxygenated water is the best choice. Distilled water is purified and It is rated purest and cleanest by National Science Foundation, containing the least parts-per-million contaminants. Some water suppliers add oxygen in a process that enhances the pure water taste.<br /><br />Spring water is water bottled from a natural spring source. The majority of bottled water is spring water. Be careful of your sources because spring water is subject to the same natural and man made contamination as other unpurified water such as well and tap water.<br /><br />Tap or Well Water<br /><br />It is best to avoid tap and well water, because most North American water supplies contain a myriad of toxins including: anti-biotics, hormones, chlorine, heavy metals, and pesticides. Test all well water for contaminants because the water table that supports well water is often polluted. A high quality filtration or distillation system is recommended for all tap/well water.<br /><br />There are Many Forms and Qualities of Bottled Water<br /><br />Although bottled water is perceived as a healthier, safer choice over tap water in consumer surveys, that is not necessarily always true. Most tap water is bad for your body but many bottled waters are not purified and therefore not much better than tap water.<br /><br />Twenty-five percent of all bottled water is actually repackaged tap water The more a consumer knows about the realities of bottled and tap water, the better they can be about selecting water based on purity and taste.<br /><br />Is Bottled Best?<br /><br />In a recent Gallop survey, most consumers indicated they drink bottled water based on their perception it is safer and purer than tap water. Taste was the second leading reason, while bottled water's convenience was also a factor.<br /><br />Bottled water is considered a food, and thus regulated by Food and Drug Administration (FDA). Tap water is regulated by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).<br /><br />Both varieties are subject to testing for contaminants, and some bottled and most tap water contains contaminates such as bacteria, arsenic, lead or pesticides. Independent tests by groups such as the National Resources Defense Council have found: Distilled/oxygenated water however, does not contain contaminants.<br /><br />Other Facts:<br /><br />-- Sixty to 70 percent of all bottled water in the United States is packaged and sold within the same state, which exempts it from FDA regulation. One in five states does not regulate that bottled water.<br /><br />-- While most cities meet the standards for tap water, some tap water in 19 U.S. cities tested was found to contain arsenic, lead, and pesticides.<br /><br />-- In 1,000 bottles of 103 different brands of bottled water, 22 percent contained synthetic chemicals, bacteria and arsenic.<br /><br />Most healthy adults can tolerate trace amounts of contaminates if exposed, but some people are more vulnerable and should be more aware of their water source. These people include cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy, patients who are HIV+ positive or recovering from a transplant or major surgery, and pregnant women, children, and elderly adults.<br /><br />Bottled water that is purified by a distillation/oxygenation process eliminates even the most minute traces of contaminants. It is best however to buy purified water from a supplier that is approved under FDA regulations.<br /><br />Why take a chance on your health because of the water you drink? <br /><br /><br />by: Jon M.

Any person can become wealthy if he thinks positively and has a deep desire to achieve his goal.<br />Positive Thinking: You must see your financial dreams and know that you will be able to attain them. You must already own them.<br /><span class="fullpost"><br />If you begin making up every rationalization under the sun why you can't succeed, pinch yourself. You have to discipline your body and mind to think positive thoughts. Teach yourself that those kind of thought patterns are unacceptable. You can obtain greatness, even if you are not the smartest, most talented, or best looking person in the world. Success is your if you'll just allow it to come into your life. Don't underestimate the power of your thoughts.<br /><br />Burning Desire: Hill tells a true tale of a man named Edwin Barnes who desired to become Thomas Edison's partner. Most of us would have scoffed at him had we lived back then. Edwin Barnes was a nobody. Nevertheless, he had a deep desire, a life dream, and he was determined. He went to Thomas Edison and convinced him to hire him. He did not instantly achieve his dream, but he worked hard and ultimately became Thomas Edison's partner. This was a feat everyone thought was impossible.<br /><br />Edwin Barnes followed these 7 steps to gain this great success:<br /><br />1. Choose a definite dream.<br /><br />2. Put all your energy into that dream.<br /><br />3. Be willing to do menial work at first.<br /><br />4. Visualize your dream.<br /><br />5. Form a strategy.<br /><br />6. Endure through the hard times.<br /><br />7. Eliminate any way to retreat.<br /><br />As you focus on obtaining your goals, answer these questions: What is the exact amount of money I want? What am I willing to sacrifice for it? What exact date do I want this money by? What is my strategy?<br /><br />Don't forget, to successful people, there is no such thing as "defeat." What looks like defeat is no more than a great opportunity. Start creating opportunities out of failures and being successful today!<br /><br />by: Elise Fisher<br />Source: <a href="http://www.articlecity.com/">articlecity.com</a><br /><br /><br /><br /></span>AYNhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13865772802333604516noreply@blogger.com0
