Forehead Jewelry is Not Anti American

head Jewelry is Not Anti American&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;by: &lt;b&gt;Henrietta Jacobson&lt;/b&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;March 10, 2003 --- No the Intuitive Eye (patent pending) is not Anti American. It is forehead jewelry and was inspired by Henrietta Jacobsons practice of Kundalini yoga, which has nothing to do with Islam or the Middle East.&lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The word Yoga comes from the Sanskirt root &quot;Yug&quot; meaning to join. Yoga literally means yoke or union and speaks of the union of the individual spirit with the universal consciousness. The basic techniques evolved in the monasteries of India &amp; Tibet over a period of thousands of years. Even though Kundalini yoga originates out of India, it was brought to America in the 60s with Yogi Bhajan. Kundalini Yoga, the Yoga of Awareness, consists of simple yogic techniques that can be enjoyed by everyone, no matter his or her age or physical ability. It is a complete science that includes breath(pranayam), yoga postures (asanas), sound, chanting (mantra) and meditation.&lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;It is designed to provide you with the experience of your highest consciousness through the raising of your Kundalini energy. It is like counseling through the body instead of the mind.&lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Americans may think if someone is wearing something on their forehead they are from the Middle East. Sikhs wear turbans but are not Islamic, Muslim or from the Middle East either. The confusion seems to come from the practice of Middle Eastern Dance or belly dancing. The title &quot;Belly Dance&quot; is a direct translation of Arabic &quot;raks el-batn&quot;. Raks is to dance and batn means belly. &lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Most belly dancers wear headpieces and Indian &amp; Egyptian women wear forehead jewelry. This of course has not stopped Americans from wearing belly chains and armbands or even belly rings.&lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;So why be afraid to wear your Intuitive Eye. Teens are wearing them, brides are wearing them and women that meditate are wearing them.&lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Henrietta Jacobson&lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.goldpenny.com" target=new&gt;www.goldpenny.com</a><p><p><p><p><p><table width=100% cellpadding=8 cellspacing=0 border=0 bgcolor=#dddddd&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;About The Author&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The Intuitive Eye (Patent Pending) has become a meditation tool for some and a unique piece of jewelry for others. As a single mother Henrietta, a psychiatric nurse and pharmaceutical consultant spent 10 years raising two boys. With previous training and experience in sewing and fashion design, she had always had a passion to design jewelry. It seemed only natural once the children were grown to return to that passion. She enrolled in a jewelry design course finally ready to follow that dream. &lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Kundalini yoga and meditation provided the inspiration for the design of the Intuitive Eye. Kundalini yoga is a wonderful tool for enriching a womans life and has become an important part of Henriettas life in many ways. It is a type of yoga for women of all ages; it is like counseling through the body and cells instead of the thought processes to heal the mind, body and spirit. &lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Henrietta is currently working on a unique and full Chakra Jewelry line! &lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;mailto:Henrietta@goldpenny.com">Henrietta@goldpenny.com</a><p><p></td></tr><p></table>

Three Key Facets Of Successful Network Marketing

Author : Kirk Bannerman

Network marketing has many aspects, but promotion, persistence,
and patience are three key elements which are critical to
achieving successful results.

PROMOTION is the lifeblood of network marketing. Whether you are
using online methods or offline methods, or a combination of
both, you must constantly strive to get your offering in front
of a targeted audience.

There are thousands of published sources that deal with specific
methods of network marketing (both online and offline), but the
key point to be made here is that you must have an active
promotion campaign designed to bring in a steady stream of new
prospective downline members.

PERSISTENCE is a key element in network marketing success.
You've gotta "just keep on keepin' on", even though frustation
levels can be quite high at times.

After you have been at it a while, and have a downline large
enough to provide reasonably accurate statistics, you will
probably find that about 95% of your downline members are
dormant and do nothing at all. Its easy to get down in the dumps
or take it personally when you encounter so many "do nothing"
people.

Therefore, it is really important work with and actively support
the 5% or so that are serious about participating. And clearly,
an active and effective promotion campaign will continue to
bring in increasing numbers of potential participants so that
while 5% is small on a percentage basis, it can still be a
sizeable amount from a pure numbers standpoint.

PATIENCE is vital. You can expect that it will take about a year
before the awsome power of geometric growth kicks in.

A classic illustration of geometric growth is the frequently
used penny-a-day example.

If you save one penny on the first day, and double it every
successive day, (day two you have 2 pennies and day three you
have 4 pennies, and so on) how much will you have at the end of
30 days? The answer, to the astonishment of many, is $5,368,708!
Amazing, but true.

Its a sad statistic that most network marketers fail and it is
often traceable to the fact that they did not exhibit enough
persistence and patience to continue constantly promoting their
business for the year or so that is required for success.

Network marketers that stick with it for a year or more often
end up becoming the proverbial "heavy hitters".

In closing, I would like to encourage you to increase your
chances of becoming a successful network marketer by always
keeping a clear focus on "the three P's" of Promotion,
Persistence, and Patience.

Tips For Lowering Your Auto Insurance Quote

Author : Terje Ellingsen
Do you have many claims? If so, you should do all you can to reduce them or even endeavor to file no claims at all. Why do I bring this issue up in an article about lowering your auto insurance quote? Because the number of claims is the single factor that to the highest degree influences the cost of your insurance premium. Let me give you an example: Let's say you have 5 years of no claim. Most companies will then give you an unbelievable discount of your premium, some of them even 75%! It goes without saying that this is the most powerful way to get cheap insurance.How can an insurance company do this? Look at an insurance company as a big box of money dropped in by people who gets security in return. What the company does is simply to reallocate the money that is left when the payments for damages are deducted.People that have many damages and file many claims, must pay a higher premium and thus get a higher car insurance quote.But a safe driver that avoid claims, is rewarded with a lower one. Fair enough?If you are new to insurance - or even if you have had insurrances for some years, but feel you lack knowledge about it. - I'll advice you to learn the basic auto insurance terminology, before you start to shop around. It can help you, not only to get a low cost insurance but also to make the correct coverage decisions for you. Let's do a little test: Do you need PIP coverage? What does PD coverage mean? What is BI coverage?Do not accept the first quote you getIf you ask an insurance company for a quote, you can be almost hundred percent sure you'll get a better one from at least one other company. Comprehensive marketing research the recent years has shown that prices for a new six-month policy with comparable coverage can vary greatly between different companies. And we are talking about spreads in rates of at least $500So, equipped with this knowledge both you and I know that it pays to do a little legwork and shop around for car insurance.Most insurance companies have a form of questions you must provide answers to in order to get an understanding of your security situation. It is really astonshing, how much the criterias for determining the price can vary between companies. What one company may consider a high risk factor another company may view as a minor risk. So why not take a little time to compare rates for a number of different companies?The first thing you should do before you start this comparison is to go through your insurance coverages and keep your auto insurance policy on hand. Then go online and start to shop around. The internet is probably the most comprehensive, fastest and easiest way to find a decent vehicle insurance quote.And what's even more incredible, many insurance companies now offer some great discounts for buying the policy over the web - a discount that come in addition to the no-claim discount described above.How is this possible? To handle an insurance sale in general cost money for the companies. However, a sale on the internet will cost less money than selling it over the counter. They do not have to involve human resources if you purchase it online. Thus the companies save money on your internet purchase, and a part of this saving is passed on to you as a discount, a significant discount if you buy from the right company.Terje Brooks Ellingsen is a writer and internet publisher.

High Blood Pressure Alternative Treatment - Supplements and Lifestyle DO Make a BIG Difference

Author : Paul Newland
Hypertension affects over 20% of the population and more and more people are now looking to high blood pressure alternative treatments and lifestyle changes to improve their health. In fact, if you read about the side-effects of your current medication, I’m sure you will be tempted to take a look at alternative treatments as well.High blood pressure, or hypertension, is determined by the amount of blood your heart pumps and the resistance the blood encounters as it is pumped through the arteries. Blood pressure is represented as the systolic pressure (when the heart is contracting) over the diastolic pressure (the pause before the next beat).If your resting blood pressure is consistently over 140/80, you have high blood pressure.High blood pressure is not actually a disease but is an indicator of increased risk of stroke, heart failure, heart attack and kidney failure. It is also associated with coronary heart disease, arteriosclerosis, kidney problems, obesity, diabetes, food allergies and endocrine gland problems which cause hormone imbalances.According to health and longevity expert, Dr Joel Wallach, when considering a high blood pressure alternative treatment the most common reason for high blood pressure is a calcium deficiency. As a result, people suffering calcium deficiency diseases - such as osteoporosis, arthritis, kidney stones, muscle cramps and twitches etc â€" also suffer from high blood pressure.It can be a silent disease, however other symptoms can include dizziness, a red face, headaches, fatigue and ringing in the ears.Diet and Lifestyle for High Blood Pressure Alternative TreatmentThere are some lifestyle and dietary changes you can make, starting immediately:• Drink approximately eight glasses of water per day.• Quit smoking and avoid caffeinated drinks.• Consume a high fibre, low fat diet with plenty of vegetables.• Avoid sugar, refined flour, fried foods and margarine.• Reduce your intake of red meat.• If you're overweight - you need to lose weight and finally,• Stress management can also have a dramatic affect and is being used by a number of medical practitioners.Health Supplements for High Blood Pressure Alternative TreatmentNatural health supplements for helping high blood pressure should include:• Plant derived colloidal minerals - which contain a highly absorbable form of calcium and other minerals and• Calcium and magnesium supplements can work well â€" make sure you buy something high quality because these two minerals are in fact very hard for the body to absorb• Essential fatty acids as fish oil may reduce the 'stickiness' of the blood and help by reducing levels of 'bad cholesterol'.• A good multivitamin complex is useful as a high blood pressure alternative treatment and should contain Coenzyme Q-10, antioxidant vitamins A, C & E and the herb Hawthorne Berry. These provide nutritional support for the cardiovascular system.When combined with a sensible diet, weight loss and some exercise, you will be amazed at the results you can achieve without the use of heavy drugs.
Of course, we always recommend you work with your health care professional - in fact tell him or her you would like to start with a high blood pressure alternative treatment program. That way your medication can be monitored and reduced as the effects of lifestyle and nutrition begin to assist you on your way to better health.Copyright http://www.Global-Longevity.comPaul Newland is a health writer, sports training consultant and martial arts instructor and manages the Global-Longevity.com website.

Can Seller Financing Help You Sell Your Property Fast?

Author : Phyllis Espinoza
You may be an investor or rehabber who buys and sells properties frequently, and the quicker you are able to turn around your properties, the more profitable you are. However, when you sell through conventional means, put the property on the market and then try to find buyers who qualify through an institution, it may be 2 months to several months before you find a buyer who qualifies. Meanwhile the property may be sitting vacant and at risk of being vandalized, and you are still paying taxes and insurance on it.
Is there a way of speeding up the process of advertising and selling the property?There is a solution: Advertising your property while offering Seller Financing.By offering Seller Financing you are in a way acting as a bank and extending financing to buyers who would not qualify through an institution due to poor credit, no credit history or past financial problems such as bankruptcy. Seller Financing expands the base of potential buyers for your property, and this alone increases your chances of finding a buyer much more quickly. It also allows you to work out the terms of the new Note with the buyer that are more agreeable for both of you.What happens if at some point you decide you no longer want to act as a bank and receive and manage these monthly payments?What if you do not want your money to be tied up in this way and instead want to re-invest it?There is also a solution: Once you create the new Mortgage Note at closing, you can sell it for Cash by doing a Simultaneous Closing.Many Note investors buy these new Notes for cash at closing or shortly after, a transaction commonly known as a Simultaneous Closing. The seller receives the down payment from the buyer plus his cash from selling the Note, and is free of the property. The Note investor now acts as the bank and receives the monthly payments from the new Note.You will have accomplished all this in about 30 days, as compared to selling the property by conventional means in 2 to 4 months, or more. This allows you to turn your properties around much quicker so that you can consider other investments.If you are a homeowner looking to sell your property quickly because you have been relocated through your job to another city or state, or because of other personal reasons, you may also want to consider using the above techniques. Selling quickly means no traveling back and forth while the property is for sale, no headaches about possible vandalism, no additional taxes or insurance to pay.But this method is not for everybody. A seller willing to go through this process has to face the issues that usually realtors and lenders go through, such as setting the sales price, screening buyer's applications and dealing with title companies. Some people are more willing than others to do this.To make this work, the seller needs to be organized, have the house documents in good order and be willing to do some homework. That's why there are more investors and rehabbers using this technique than there are homeowners. But the ones that venture into this new territory can be well rewarded at the end.If you want to sell your property quickly and get cash on closing, this may be your best way to go!Phyllis Espinoza is an expert in Simultaneous Closings, an emerging field of creative real estate financing, and the owner of the website http://www.simultaneousclosing.com. Her goal is to help as many people as possible by making this useful technique better known.

The Factors that Play a Role in Your Web Site's Ranking

Author : Courtney Heard
Have you ever had a proposal, estimate or quote for search engine optimization work and wondered what goes into the pricing? What makes one site need more work than another? Why do some sites increase rankings faster than others? Why do some sites get more traffic from their top page ranking than yours?There are so many aspects of a web site that can decrease or boost your search
engine rankings. Each web site is as unique as DNA and as such, will react
differently to different marketing treatments.What are these different factors that go into your web site's ranking? Here is a list of
the most important aspects:1. The State of Your Site Prior to the Optimization - Your web site can have many
different attributes that contribute to it's ability to rank well or not so well. Your
site's PageRank for example, if your PR is a 0/10 or 1/10, it's going to take a lot
longer and a lot more work to get your site ranking well. If your site is poorly
designed, contains frames or is written entirely in Flash, a lot of work will be
required to redesign your site so that it is search engine friendly. If your site has
very few incoming links, a fair amount of link development will have to be done in
order for you to see the rankings and traffic you're after. A web site that has been
around for a while and developed it's PageRank, has a search engine friendly design
and obtains links on a frequent basis, will be able to reach top positions much faster
than other sites, once an optimization campaign is under way.2. The Keywords You Are Targeting - Some keywords are less competitive than
others. If you search Google for a keyword or keyword phrase, you'll see at the top
of the results how many web pages are listed in those results. That is the amount of
web sites that are competing with yours to reach top page placement for that
keyword or keyword phrase. For example, the keyword phrase "web design" has
approximately 303 million web pages listed in the results, whereas if you search for
my name in quotations, "courtney heard", you will see that there are only 508 web
pages listed in the results. It is therefore, much easier to rank well for the keywords
"courtney heard" than is is for web design. This is why you must choose keywords
wisely. With tools such as wordtracker.com, you can find out approximately how
many searches are performed for a given keyword or keyword phrase. The more
competitive those keywords are, the higher the cost will be to optimize your web
site and the longer the optimization will take.3. The Size of Your Target Market - If your site is targeting a global market, it will
take a lot more effort to reach the top ten search results than if your site is
targeting a regional market. It also depends on what sort of market you're targeting.
If your site sells a product that only a small group of people will be interested in
purchasing, your site will be optimized easier than if the product or service
appealed to the global population. For instance, the keyword phrase "real estate"
will require a lot more effort to reach top page placement for than "real estate
canada" and even "real estate vancouver".4. Competitor Sites' SEO Campaigns - You might find that once your optimization
campaign is under way, your site jumps and slips and jumps and slips several
times. This can be due to many things, but the one we'll look at is your competitor's
sites SEO campaigns. If your competitors are aggressively optimizing their own sites
for search engines, they can also be achieving new rankings and displacing your
site. This brings us to our 5th and final point...5. Your Own SEO and Link Development Campaign - Your own link development
and SEO campaign should be thorough, covering all the aspects of a well optimized
site and utilizing all your resources for obtaining incoming links. If your SEO
campaign isn't approached properly, your competitors can surpass you in the
rankings easily. You must be aware of your competition and adjust your efforts
accordingly.As you can see, there are many, many things that make your site unique in the
services it requires. Some sites can reach top page placement by just changing a
title tag, while others wait 6 months to even be listed on Google. The bottom line is,
educate yourself, ask questions, choose the right SEO company and be patient. In
time, your top page placement will come.Courtney Heard is the founder of Abalone Designs,
