HOW TO HELP AND SUPPORT OTHERS

HOW TO HELP AND SUPPORT OTHERS - And why this is important

INTRODUCTION

It is always better to give than to receive. There are many different ways and reasons how to help and support others. There are just as many reasons why this is important. Altruism is Latin and means actions done in an unselfish way for the benefit of another person. Many people come to the aid of others for religious, philosophical, or personal reasons.

SPIRITUAL REASONS

Giving up one’s own interests for the betterment of someone else is common in most religions.

In the Bible, we are taught how to help and support others.

I Thessalonians 5:13-14 states “Live in peace with each other. We ask you to warn those who do not work. Encourage the people who are afraid. Help those that are weak. Be patient with every person.”

Hebrews 3:13 states “Encourage each other every day. Do this while it is today. Help each other so that none of you will become hardened because of sin and its tricks.”

Hebrews 6:10 states “God is fair. He will not forget the work you did and the love you showed Him by helping His people and He will remember that you are still helping Him.”

Hebrews 10:24-25 states “Let us think about each other to show love and do good deeds.”

Hebrews 13:2 states “Remember to welcome strangers into your homes. Some people have done this and have welcomed angels without knowing it.”

PHILOSOPHICAL REASONS - CONFUCIUS

Confucius was a Chinese philosopher born in 551 B.C. His quotes have influenced the lives and thoughts of the Chinese, Korean, and Japanese people. His philosophy was based on ordinary Chinese customs and values. His views taught personal ethics and how to help and support others. Some of his sayings are as follows:

“Confucius say . . . “

A fool despises good counsel, but a wise man takes it to heart.

I want you to be everything that’s you, deep at the center of your being.

If you think in terms of a year, plant a seed.

If in terms of 10 years, plant trees.

If in terms of 100 years, teach the people.

What you do not want done to yourself, don’t do to others.

This last quote is very similar to the Golden Rule which is “Do unto others as you would have others do unto you.”

PHILOSOPHICAL REASONS - KARMA

The philosophy of Karma is found in the Hindu and Buddhist religions. Karma has much to do with fate and destiny. Karma is a belief that our actions bring good or bad results back to us either in this life or the next. In other words, what you do will affect you now or later in some way, shape, or form. Karma returns good for good and bad for bad. If you give generously or kindly, you will receive generously or kindly. Every action has a reaction, good or bad. The Karma philosophy believes that good and bad karma follows a person’s soul from one body to the next body, one life to the next life. Helping others through good deeds will result in positive results in return. Good deeds are ways to help and support others.

There is a television show in the United States that bases its entire program on karma. A man named Earl has a list of people whom he has wronged in his life. Karma has been telling him to right those wrongs so that bad things will stop happening to him. Every episode shows him doing something nice for a person on that list so he can mark their name off.

HOW TO HELP OTHERS

Although there are people in this world that say they can live their daily life without any help or support from others, they have been encouraged and given support at some time in their life. Most everyone can benefit from words and/or actions from those who want to help and support others. Some people needing encouragement are family members and friends that may be struggling with addictions such as alcohol, drugs, or food.

There are many different ways to help and support others. Spending time with them through activities such as exercise, Bible studies, support groups, shopping, walks, movies, flea markets, festival, sports, or even grocery shopping. Visit them often and let them know you care. Show them by your own actions how to deal with life and its twists and turns. Bring them self help books to help and encourage them.

WHY WE HELP OTHERS

This is important to help others because the helping person benefits by giving that person a sense of well being and peace which results in good health and longevity.

It is important to help others, and not just because one day we may need that person’s help. It is extremely difficult for family and friends to see someone in need of help. Those in need suffer financially and socially. They may just simply need someone to stand beside them to be their rock of strength. Maybe they just need someone to call when they need a helping hand or encouraging word. Those in pain don’t always see how they are hurting themselves and others. They may not know how to help themselves or are afraid to seek help. Constant encouragement will give them the self-esteem they need to help themselves and make them feel better about themselves.

Tragedies such as Hurricane Katrina and the Twin Towers on September 11 brought people together from all across the United States to help and support others. During the Holocaust in Germany, neighbors knew how to help and support others by hiding Jewish families so they wouldn’t suffer the consequences of Adolph Hitler’s regime.

CONCLUSION

People will sometimes only help others if they are publicly acknowledged. Others quietly help others without a pat on the back. At some point in everyone’s life, encouragement and support is needed. How to help and support others comes from compassion and caring that is in all of our innermost beings. Seeing someone become a better person resulting from our encouragement and support is why it is important to be a friend to a friend in need.

HELPFUL TIPS FOR ALL CAKES

Tablespoon is abbreviated “tbl” and teaspoon is abbreviated “tsp”.

It is best to lightly grease and flour cake pans before pouring in the batter. Spray oil used for cooking can be used as well as shortening. Often the spray oil is enough and the pan does not need to be floured. Greasing the cake pan will allow the cake to be removed easier.

After baking, cakes are done when a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean.

When cooking cakes in round pans, the top of the cake is always wider than the bottom of the cake. To remove the first cake from the pan, invert a plate on top of the cake in the pan, and turn upside down onto the cake plate. Since this will make the larger size on the bottom, you will need to flip this cake onto another cake plate. When removing the second cake, be sure to position the larger side of the cake on top of the larger side of the first cake. If you don’t, you’ll end up with a cake that’s a bit difficult to frost or look a bit mismatched!

Self-rising flour can be substituted for all-purpose flour, baking powder, and baking soda.

Applesauce can be substituted for oil. Be sure to use just a little less applesauce then you would if you were using oil.

Sunflower kernels can be substituted for walnuts.

Cake recipes also make delicious cupcakes and muffins. Pour batter into lined or unlined muffin tins and bake at the same temperature in the cake recipe for 18 to 20 minutes. Be sure to grease the muffin tins if you are not using muffin liners.

CONCLUSION

Whether someone has very little time or all day, there’s a cake recipe that will fit their needs and their tastes. Don’t be surprised that once you start baking one delicious cake, you get in the mood to bake another! Get out the ice cream and enjoy!

HOW TO CHANGE YOUR NAME

2012-01-11T23:48:00.000+01:00

HOW TO CHANGE YOUR NAME

INTRODUCTION -- UNITED STATES
(How to change your name in Canada is explained further down)

Both men and women are permitted to change their last name once they are married or divorced. It is easier if you are a new bride to change your name than it is for your husband. There are many reasons people want to change their name. The judge requires a good reason to grant the request and will deny the request if the reason is fraudulent based.

STEPS -- UNITED STATES

HOW TO CHANGE YOUR NAME IF YOU ARE A MARRIED OR DIVORCED WOMANThe divorce decree allows the divorced wife to return to her maiden name after a divorce. However, the wife can continue to use her married name if she wishes.

The first step how to change your name is to go to the nearest Social Security office. Bring your identification (driver’s license or state identification card), birth certificate, and marriage license or divorce decree. You will complete the necessary form and pay a small fee. You will receive your new social security card with your new name in seven to ten days. Your social security number will remain the same. Social Security will notify the IRS so be sure to file your taxes using your new name.

Fill out a form at the Division of Motor Vehicles (DMV) to change your driver‘s license and registrations. Bring your new social security card when doing so.

If you are a new wife, you have the choice to change your name by either just using your husband’s name or hyphenating your name with your new husband’s name (Jane Doe-Jones for example).

If you are a new husband and wish to change your name instead, it is not as easy as it is for your new wife. The new husband first needs to check if there is a place on the marriage certificate to specify his new name. If there is not, he will have to go through the whole legal process.

NOT GETTING MARRIED OR DIVORCED OR IF YOU ARE A NEW HUSBAND WANTING TO CHANGE YOUR NAMEThe following steps are the basic steps in a nutshell that each state in the United States follows; however, each state does have their own variations of the process on how to change your name.

The first step how to change your name legally is to file your intent to change your name with the local court system or probate court. You will complete and submit the appropriate paperwork along with the proper payment.

Next, you will have to post a notification of the proposed name change in the newspaper.

This publication must appear three times. The purpose of this notification is to allow any law enforcement and creditors to object to your name change. Although it is fraudulent to change your name to escape legal or financial issues, some people have tried.

After the first showing in the newspaper, you can submit a formal request for the local judge to change your name by completing and submitting another form and another fee. This form is called a petition form or deed poll.

The judge will grant your request if you have a good reason. If the judge feels it is not a good reason, the request can be denied. At that point, a court date would be scheduled. Once the judge does grant the name change, you will need to publish a notice in the local newspaper with the judge’s form of approval.

If you are a legal alien, ex-convict, or attorney, an Affidavit of Service to notify the appropriate authorities is required to notify the state bar, criminal justice system, and immigration services about your plan to change your name.

In some states such as New York, the Civil Rights Law states that a new name will be adopted

if you use that name consistently and without fraudulent reasons. However, credit card companies, banks, and other institutions may not honor this.

HOW TO CHANGE YOUR NAME IF YOU ARE A MINOR CHILD

A parent or legal guardian must submit the petition for children. A form of consent will have to be signed by the parent or guardian agreeing to the name change. There must be a good reason for the name change such as adoption or the child is a stepchild being brought into the family.

A judge can grant a name change of minor children at the adoption hearing. If it is a custody or divorce case, the consent form must be signed by the other parent.

Both parents and guardians will be notified to voice any questions or objections. A court hearing in front of a judge is then scheduled to voice those questions or objections.

REASONS FOR NAME CHANGE

- When two people are married, they both want to share the same last name.

- When two people divorce, the wife often wants to return to her maiden name.

- Children’s last names are changed as a result of adoption into a family.

- Some people change their entire name due to religious beliefs.

- Others wish to shorten or simplify their names.

- Some people were given names at birth that never really fit them.

- Some people want to disassociate themselves from their family name due to personal reasons.

WARNINGS

The new name cannot include symbols, trademarks, foul language, or numbers except Roman numerals (George Smith III for example).

You cannot change your name to escape legal or financial issues.

Once you decide on a name change, you can’t keep going back to the court to change it if you decide that you prefer something else.

TIPS

If you wish to change your name yourself, you can either go to the courts to obtain all the paperwork and guidance or you can purchase a kit that has all the necessary forms and instructions depending on your state and country. You can also hire a lawyer or paralegal who are knowledgeable in how to change your name, and they will do it for you for a fee.

Notify all three credit bureaus to avoid losing your credit rating.

Be patient. It will take time and money to fill out the forms and get thru the process of how to change your name.

Be sure to notify everyone you can think of concerning your name change. This would include credit card companies, IRS, utility companies, employer, post office, family, friends, passport, banks, retirement funds and plans, real estate records, voter registration, insurance companies, and the attorney for your will and other people’s wills.

HOW TO CHANGE YOUR NAME -- CANADA

Each province and territory in Canada has their own variations of the process and their own Change of Name Act. The following is a snapshot of how to change your name in Canada. It is very easy and mostly just paperwork and fees. If your name change is due to marriage or divorce, be sure to bring your marriage certificate or divorce decree in order to change all your identification such as health card, drivers license, passport, etc. If you are a new bride, it is a common practice in Canada to keep your maiden name after marriage instead of changing your name.

Update your social security number (called Social Insurance Number in Canada).

Update your driver’s license.

Update your passport by visiting the local Government of Canada passport office.

Obtain a Redirection of Mail form from the post office in order to change your name with the Canada post office.

Call or send a letter to Revenue Canada.

If you want to change your name legally, you must complete and file the Election to Change Surname form with the proper government office. There is no charge for this if it is submitted within 90 days of your marriage date. Many provinces and territories will also automatically update your name on your birth certificate. If this is the case, you will have to surrender your birth documents and obtain new, updated documents.

To be eligible, the applicant must have been born in that province or territory or lived there for a certain amount of time before submitting the application to change your name. Depending on the province or territory, the amount of time required could be three months to one year.

If you were born in Canada, you will need your original birth certificate and identity document to change your name. Otherwise, a certified copy of your immigration papers and permanent resident card are required.

A guarantor or sponsor may be required to change your name. This is a person not related to you that has known you for more than a year.

Some provinces or territories also do fingerprinting.

The name change will be granted if you have a good reason.

The following is a basic breakdown of how to change your name in the various provinces and territories in Canada:

ALBERTA

Obtain all forms from the registry agent, a service center that acts as the middleman by offering registrations, information, and license services to the government offices for you. The registry agent will send your application to Vital Statistics. Vital Statistics will process, approve, and return a Change of Name Certificate to you. If you were to send the application directly to Vital Statistics, the form will not be processed and will be returned to you. Finger printing is also required by this province to change your name..

BRITISH COLUMBIA

The applicant completes and submits the proper form and fee to the Minister of Finance. Another fee is paid and forwarded to Vital Statistics to cover the cost of the criminal record check. Vital Statistics will also supply the applicant with the fingerprinting package. The applicant must supply all original birth certificates if he or she was born in Canada. Otherwise, certified copies of immigration papers or a permanent resident card will be required to change your name.

MANITOBA

The name change in this province will not change your birth certificate. The proper form and fee are processed by Vital Statistics.

NEW FOUNDLAND and LABRADOR

The proper form and fee are processed by the Department of Government Services.

NORTHWEST TERRITORY

The proper form and fee are processed by Health and Social Services.

ONTARIO

The proper form and fee are processed by the Ministry of Government Services.

QUEBEC

The proper form, fee, and administrative costs are paid to the Registrar of Civil Status. This could cost several hundred dollars.

PRINCE EDWARD ISLAND, SASKATCHEWAN and YUKON

The proper form and fee are processed by Vital Statistics.

CONCLUSION
The process of how to change your name is not as bad as it seems. Whether you live in the United States or Canada, the process to change your name can be lengthy, time consuming, and costly. Once the name change is completed, you can move on with your life and enjoy being called by your name of choice.

The practice of how to name a house began with the rich upper class aristocrats in Britain naming their halls, mansions, and castles in the 17^th century. This tradition gradually spread to the common folk. This custom actually dates back to Babylonian and Assyrian times. Many countries even today that know how to name their houses include Scotland, Australia, Ireland, Germany, Poland, Italy, Canada, and the United States.

In Britain, how to name a house was the only way of identifying a house until the law was passed in 1765 requiring house numbers. House numbers made it easier to deliver the mail since some house names were very popular and used to describe more than one house in the area.

In some countries where house names are still used exclusively for identification purposes instead of house numbers, the owner must gain permission from the post office or local council to change the existing name.

BENEFITS OF NAMING A HOUSE

Woolpack Pub, Home Farm, Butler’s Farm, Wishing Well Cottage, and Tall Trees Cottage.

HOW TO LIE

2012-01-01T00:31:00.000+01:00

HOW TO LIE

INTRODUCTION

People lie for different reasons, but there isn’t a reason to lie in any circumstance. The truth should always be told. White lies are told to protect someone’s feelings, but that will eventually

hurt the person being told the lie. These lies will also hurt the liar and jeopardize their friendship. Pathological liars lie about everything from the small to large, and tend to believe the lies themselves. It’s like they live in their own fantasy world.

WHY PEOPLE LIE

The person is afraid of the consequences of telling the truth about something they did or didn’t do or what they said or didn’t say.

They are hiding something they have done or said.

A person lies to impress others, be socially accepted, or be liked.

A lie is told to protect themselves or another person.

Someone will lie for financial gain.

Sometimes lies are told because the liar thinks that is what the other person wants to hear.

Abused spouses lie because their spouse may be overly protective or jealous for no reason. Sometimes there are legitimate reasons for a spouse’s distrust. When there is not, the spouse lies so as not to start an argument or so that the jealous spouse will not conjure reasons for abuse.

Sometimes lies are told to put the spotlight on someone else that may not have done anything at all.

SIGNS OF LYING

The person doing the lying does not make eye contact with the person they are talking to. They tend to look down or towards another object such as the ceiling or a far wall.

The liar starts acting like a “busy bee” by wiping off the table, doing dishes, putting food away, or tinkering around the room while talking. They may also visit the bathroom quite a few times while thinking on their story.

The liar stammers, stutters, fumbles over their words, or changes the pitch in their voice.

While lying, the person exhibits out of the ordinary body language such as tapping the foot or fingers or playing with their hair. The person acts very nervous, jumpy, fidgety, shaky, and anxious. The liar may also blush, be very pale, and perspire heavily.

The person may also display rapid breathing, dilated pupils, and nervous laughter.

The facts of their story may not make sense, are not in order, or may change as questions are asked about details. They may add too much detail like they are trying to overcompensate and cover all bases.

The person becomes overly defensive and becomes very aggressive when being questioned. They may try to take control of the conversation and turn the situation around to accuse the person they are talking to.

When questioned, they can’t answer right away because they are thinking of the “right” answer to keep up with the lie.

When questioned, the liar acts ignorant when the person asking the questions knows that they are not ignorant of what they are discussing.

The liar readily changes the subject very easily to distract the person they are talking to into discussing another topic thus getting the attention off of them. Sometimes humor or sarcasm is used to change topics.

CONSEQUENCES OF LYING

Telling lies for any reason causes a lack of trust for the person that was lied to.

No one will believe anything the liar has to say, even if it is complimentary.

If the liar never tells the truth about the lie, that person will have to live with the lie as a secret for the rest of their lives. They will have to remember the lie if the subject ever arises again in the future.

Lies only hurt others by making them believe something that isn’t true.

CONCLUSION

One lie can lead to another. Once a person starts lying, it seems to be easier for them to continue making up lies until they are caught. The person who lied to another person should always come clean and tell the truth, even if it is years later regardless of the consequences. Men and women have been falsely accused and imprisoned due to lies and then released years later once the liar comes forward and confesses the truth. But the time spent behind bars cannot be erased.

When husbands and wives lie to each other, a lack of trust and resentment results. Children lie because they are afraid of being punished for something they should not have done or said. As adults, we know better between right and wrong. Lies not only hurt others, but they hurt ourselves as well.

HOW TO DATE

2012-01-01T00:04:00.000+01:00

HOW TO DATE

INTRODUCTION

Many people find it difficult to find others to date. Some dream all their lives of meeting the right person to spend the rest of their life with. The following are tips on where to meet people and what to do and not to do when dating.

WHERE TO MEET PEOPLE

Dating services can be very costly but are successful in pairing compatible people. The dating service will either match the person with potential people or the person can pick and choose who they wish to meet by reviewing personal profiles.

Many newspapers now have a section of singles ads once a week where people can place and/or answer singles ads. There is a phone number to call to leave a short message on the ad chosen. These ads can run up a phone bill since there is a cost of $1.99 per minute or more while on the phone.

Single dances are held at banquet rooms or bars/restaurants. There is usually a very minimal fee such as $5 or $10 to gain access to a singles dance. Once there, singles ask each other to dance and then sit at a table together to discuss if they have anything in common. Food is sometimes also served.

Churches, hospitals, or counseling centers will offer support groups for single or divorced people. It is a good way to help cope with the stresses of everyday life, and the person may also meet someone along the way.

Singles groups often get together and meet once or twice a month for dinner and an activity. This is a nice social activity that gets a person out of the house. Most relationships start with friendship first and then evolve into more.

Veterans clubs, clubs at the library (reading or computer clubs), hiking clubs, bird watching clubs, or any other types of clubs are good ways to meet people with similar interests.

Sports leagues such as bowling, softball, baseball, volleyball, basketball will also get the person into a casual atmosphere and around other people.

Attending Bible studies and church services as well as joining church activities is good, wholesome, worth-while time spent. The person will also benefit spiritually.

Volunteering at the local hospital, care facility, or facility for mentally-challenged children will also make a difference in your life and the lives of others. The person looking for a relationship may find it in a fellow volunteer. Ask your friends and co-workers to find a compatible “blind date” for you. Someone may know just the right person that is also looking for someone to spend time with.

WHERE TO MEET AND WHAT TO DO

The first date should be driving separately and meeting at a restaurant especially if they have only spoken on the phone, have not met the person before, or don’t know that much about them. In the female’s case, the female won’t have to rely on that person to take her home if the evening does not go well. In the male’s case, they both can leave and he will not have to be concerned about taking her home if the evening does not go well.
Attending a movie or play either before or after eating at a restaurant would be a good choice.

Just be sure there is enough time to talk to find out about each other.

Taking a walk in the park allows the couple to enjoy nature, be more at ease and casual, and discuss any topic they wish.

Going to festivals, fairs, amusement parks, or even haunted houses is also a casual way to meet someone and spend an evening.

SUBJECTS TO TALK ABOUT ON A FIRST DATE

Parents, siblings, nieces, nephews, children, and grandchildren are common subjects.

People often talk about their pets and their cute antics.

School history such as which schools were attended, classes taken, and school stories are good subjects.

Discussing what is done in any spare time such as hobbies or sports is very informative.

Favorite movies, actors, singers, and what type of music is preferred is a good subject.

A person’s occupation is also a popular discussion. Everyone wants to know what people do for a living, and some people have very interesting jobs.

WARNINGS

People can be very dangerous sometimes. They may not really be how they portray themselves. It is best to always be cautious and careful when meeting anyone for the first time, even if they have spoken on the phone quite a few times.

CONCLUSION

People have problems dating because they are too shy, work too much, or just don’t know how or where to meet people. No one should be in a rush to meet Mr. or Miss Right because that person might just end up being Mr. or Miss Wrong. If it is meant to be, it will happen and it shouldn’t be forced. It is important to have fun while you’re with that person, be honest, and courteous.

Start out as friends first and then see where it leads. Workplace relationships don’t always work out. If you date someone that you work with and then break up, it may be hard to see that person everyday especially if the circumstances of breaking up were hurtful. It may also be hard to see that person with someone else. Some people find it hard to work together because they are constantly in competition with each other. Remember never to get talked into anything that you feel uncomfortable with, and always remember your morals and principals to be worthy of yourself and the other person. You don’t want to do anything that you will regret later.

HOW TO START RUNNING

2011-12-25T01:35:00.006+01:00

HOW TO START RUNNING

INTRODUCTION

Running is an excellent form of exercise, but the beginner needs to know how to start running in order to prevent injury. There are differences between walking, jogging, and running. Walking is a slower pace than jogging or running. Jogging is a form of trotting and slower than running. Jogging is usually slower than 6 mph. Running is a faster pace than walking and jogging. Running is usually faster than 6 mph.

STEPS

The first and most important step in learning how to start running is to get a physical at your doctor’s office. Your doctor will offer helpful advice if you are a smoker, are overweight, have heart problems, diabetes, or other health conditions.

You will need comfortable and well-fitting running shoes to start running. Shoes don’t need to be expensive. Running shoes need to be the correct size, fit well, and have enough cushion and support to prevent injury of the feet, back, and legs.

Comfortable, loose running clothes are also a must to start running. Be sure to dress in layers. Dress warm in cold weather but not overly to make you overheat. Remember that your body will warm up as you run. In warm weather, dress in in short sleeves and shorts. If you are a male, do not run without a shirt. Your skin needs protection from the rays of the sun.

Always keep a water bottle filled with water whether it is cold or hot weather. You do not want to dehydrate.

Bring a watch or stopwatch to check the time and your running time.

Some runners use a heart monitor if they have heart problems or just to track their heart rate.

Some people use a pedometer to keep track of the distance they are running.

Sunglasses and sun lotion are important in sunny weather to protect your eyes and skin from the sun.

Wearing a headband will keep the perspiration from getting into your eyes. Wrist bands will allow you to wipe perspiration away. Some runners keep a small towel tucked in a back pocket to wipe away any perspiration.

WARMUP BEFORE RUNNING

Whether you are a seasoned runner or learning to start running, warming up will prevent any cramping or injuries that may occur. Warming up loosens the muscles and lessens or prevents any aches, pains, or injuries. Warm-ups should be performed 10 to 15 minutes before running.

Warm-ups can include walking, jogging, cycling or stretching exercises. Stretching exercises should focus on the neck, shoulders, arms, waist, legs, ankles, and feet.

RUNNING

The best way to learn how to start running during the first month is to walk for the first 15 minutes to warm up, then jog, then run. Work up to running gradually.

Run for time not distance. Start with a short period of running and gradually increase each week by 15 minutes.

Run at a good pace. You should be able to talk while running. If you are out of breath, you need to slow down or walk for 10 to 15 minutes.

The heel of the foot should land on the ground first and then roll the foot towards the toes. Runners do not run on their toes like sprinters do. This will cause injuries such as shin splints and cramping in the calves. Run lightly on your feet and don’t put too much “bounce” in your stride.

Keep your hands loose, not clenched, and at waist level, just brushing your hips. Don’t hold your arms up or swing your arms excessively.

Keep your back straight, head up, and shoulders level. Slouching can lead to numerous injuries of different parts of the body.

Do not run more than three times a week. The muscles need time to rest. Other exercises can be substituted for the “off” days of running such as walking, swimming, or using exercise equipment.

COOL DOWN AFTER RUNNING

It is important to cool and calm the body and heart rate after a running workout. A five minute walk or stretching exercises are good choices.

TIPS

Eat a sensible diet with lots of fruits, vegetables, and grains. Eat according to the basic food groups. Don’t eat a lot of junk food. You are what you eat, and what you eat will either give you energy or make you sluggish.

Drink lots of water. Some sports drinks contain too much sodium which is not good for your body. Drinking alcohol when not running is not good for the body either.

Don’t smoke while running or stop for a cigarette break while you are running. You’re supposed to be filling your lungs and body with fresh air, not stale smoke.

Be sure to get enough sleep every night. If you start running even though you are tired, you will fatigue quickly and may cause injury to yourself.

When learning how to start running, keep a schedule and stick with it. Pick a certain time to run each day. Maybe early mornings to start running are better for you to jumpstart your day. Maybe running in the evenings after work would be a way to wind down and relax from the stresses of the day.

Be careful running on roads, sidewalks, recreational paths, or walking trails. Watch for traffic, other runners, pedestrians, and cyclists. Also be careful not to twist your ankles on uneven terrain. Watch your posture when running up and down hills. Stop running if you are injured.

Running at an indoor track is ideal all year round especially if you live in an area that has ice and snow. If you do run outside in the ice or snow, be careful not to slip and fall. Dress warm to prevent frostbite.

When learning how to start running, many beginners prefer to run with friends. This makes the time pass more quickly. That friend may also be a seasoned runner with valuable advice. Just be careful not to lose track of time and push yourself beyond your limits or to impress your fellow runner.

Since you are just learning to start running, be patient and don’t overdo it. The body needs time to adapt in order to build strength and endurance. Overdoing will also result in injuries that could have been prevented.

Don’t always run on the same type of surface. Change surfaces every so often. If you’ve been running on concrete for the last week, then change to a softer surface.

Drink enough water whether you are learning how to start running in cold or hot weather. It is important to always stay hydrated.

You will be able to run longer distances at a faster pace as you build endurance and stamina and get in better shape. As you progress after you learn how to start running, you can start out with smaller competitive runs such as 5 kilometer runs and gradually work up to marathons which are 26 miles.

COMMON INJURIES

When learning to start running, you may encounter blisters on your feet. The solution for this is to wear socks that don’t hold moisture and are not too tightly fitting. Also check the fit of your shoes for any rubbing.

If muscle strains and soreness are causing inflammation, apply a cold compress or ice bag to the affected area. Never put ice directly on the skin. Although ice is cold, it will burn the skin.

Ibuprofen or aspirin can be taken for inflammation and pain.

Applying a heating pad or hot compress will provide relief to sore muscles. Soaking in a hot bath will also relieve soreness and is very relaxing. Many products are also on the market to soothe sore muscles such as gels and creams.

Do more stretching and warming up before running to prevent injury.

Knee injuries and shin splints can be prevented by proper stretching of the knees, legs, and calves. Also check that your running shoes offer enough support to your feet.

More serious injuries include hip bursitis, stress fractures, pulled hamstring, ankle sprain, Achilles tendonitis, and arch pain. Take a break from running if any pain persists. Don’t hesitate to consult a doctor before the injury worsens.

BENEFITS

Learning how to start running builds stamina, endurance, and muscles and gets you into shape.

Your heart works more efficiently so you live longer.

Running lowers cholesterol and increases bone density.

Running burns 100 calories per mile so you lose weight.

Running is relaxing and lowers stress which improves your mental state.

WARNINGS

If you become dizzy while running, it means you are becoming dehydrated and not getting enough water or are pushing yourself too hard. Rest or walk for a few minutes and drink more water.

Form and posture are important when learning how to start running. Using improper posture and form may cause injury.

Stop running if you become injured.

CONCLUSION

Learning to start running the proper way is essential for the health and welfare of the body. There is much that the beginner needs to know in order to prevent unnecessary injuries, aches, and pains.

Introduction

If you want to create your own website or a website for an organization, business, etc, then you have no option but to learn how to HTML. HTML stands for the Hyper Text Markup language. HTML code is the international language used for internet web. All the websites are written using this language as it instructs the browsers e.g mozilla firefox or internet explorer on how to decode the language and display the words as they are supposed to on the web page. Since the code files are plain text files, they can be composed and edited on any computer using any operating system. This article takes you through the HTML process, but you as a reader will be required to research on the types of HTML codes which will be covered later in an another article.

There three terms used in HTML and which any learner should know: tags (<tag>), which are commands that the web browser interprets, they specify the ‘markup’ regions of HTML document for the web browser. Element, which refers to a complete tag i.e. an opening tag and a closing tag (<tag>-opening tag, </tag> \-closing tag) and an attribute, which modifies HTML. An element consists of many attributes. Every web page requires four critical elements: the html, head, title and body elements. All words should begin and end with html.

Step one: Getting Started

Open a note pad and create a new document, copy the <html> and </html> codes in your text editors. Save this file by clicking on the ‘save as type’ option and save under ‘all files’. Name your file as “index.html” without the quotes. If you want to view the file, you can open it in a new browser.

Step two: Inserting the HTML tags

The next step is inserting the <head> <element> tag and your web page content or <body>.note that tags placed within the head elements are not displayed on web pages by browsers. Your end results will be like this:

<html>

<head>

</head>

</html>

Place the <title> tag within the <head> element to title your page. The words written between the title tags are displayed at the top of the viewers browser. Example:

<html>

<head>

</head>

</html>

Save the file and when you open it in your browser, “my web page” will be displayed.

Insert the <body> element. This is where all the content is placed i.e pictures, images, maps etc)

Example:

<html>

<head>

<title>my webpage< /title>

</head>

<body>

Welcome to link soft

</body>

</html>

When you follow these simple steps, you will have easily code your document with HTML and you will be ready to start creating your web page.Go ahead and learn all the html codes you can to make your work easier.

HOW TO NAME A BUSINESS

2011-12-16T01:27:00.003+01:00

HOW TO NAME A BUSINESS

INTRODUCTION

Starting a business takes time, preparation, and hard work. First you need to decide on the type of business you want to establish and then go through all the legal steps to start its new life.

STEPS INVOLVED IN SETTING UP A BUSINESS

Decide on a company name that will be easily remembered yet not too common. The name can be something catchy that people will remember without being too “cutesy”.

The next step is to obtain a federal tax identification number through an accountant or company that specializes in this service. They will search the company name to ensure that it is not already being used, set up the company to pay quarterly or yearly taxes, and can also incorporate the company,

The federal tax identification number is needed to open one or more business accounts at the bank for the new business.

Advertising is very important in starting a new company. Business cards and flyers can be produced by the local printing company, office supply store, companies found on the internet, or by utilizing computer software to make your own. Post business cards and flyers on bulletin boards in post offices, grocery stores, and hardware stores. Newspaper and phone book ads will advertise the new company to many areas. Lettering the company name and phone number on the work truck, van, or vehicle are also excellent ways to advertise the new business. A mascot or catchy slogan could be incorporated in the advertising and might make people remember the company by the mascot or slogan.

Proposals, invoices, letterhead, and envelopes can be printed by the local printing company, office supply store, companies found on the internet, or by utilizing computer software to make your own. The mascot or slogan could also be utilized in these documents.

Business liability insurance and worker’s compensation coverage is a good selling point to prospective customers and safeguards the new business, too.

Decide on the vital equipment that is needed to run the new business. An answering machine, fax machine, and computer are almost always necessary. The answering machine message should include the company name and phone number. Setting up a business email address and possibly a website could also be helpful. Depending on the service to be offered, physical inventory may need to be in stock or work vehicles may need to be purchased.

Keep a pen and paper near the phone. When a customer calls, answer the phone using the name of the new company. Obtain the customer’s name, address, phone number, and the work needing performed. Perform the service in a timely manner.

CONCLUSION

Don’t get discouraged while starting your new business. Be sure that the business you start will be given all your undivided attention to make it a success. If employees are to be hired, be selective and make sure that they work to establish a good reputation for the new company. It may take a few years before the new owner sees a profit. Usually the first five years are spent getting a client base and getting the company name out to the public. All the hard work will be worth the benefits down the road especially when you hear your company name being passed by word of mouth due to the excellent service you offer.

Maybe you have recieved one of Jasons emails or watched one of his videos. The arbitrages seen in his program are actually only latency issues among Forex brokers data feed, and that makes it look like a arbitrages. Unlike arbitrages in sports betting, arbitrages in forex "exists" just because the brokers got delays in their systems. So actually you are only gambling here not looking at real arbitrages.

On paper it looks nice, but in reality you can't have a system that can both make the order and close the order without risking losses. And the risk is pretty high, that is why Jason Fielder demo software not executed orders. But people wish so hard that the software would make them rich so they don't understand that this is just another scam.

Save your money and don't buy his software.

HOW TO MAKE MONEY

2011-12-07T00:37:00.010+01:00

HOW TO MAKE MONEY

INTRODUCTION

There are many ways how to make money whether it will be as your sole income or to supplement your existing income. You can work from home, outside the home, for yourself, or for others. You can make products, sell merchandise, or offer specialized services to the public. The possibilities how to make money are endless.

STEPS -- HOW TO MAKE MONEY -- WORKING AT HOME

More than ever, people are opting to work from home as a way to make money. Many companies are hiring independent contractors to work from their home. This benefits the employer by not having to pay for employee taxes, worker’s compensation, and health insurance. The pay is either hourly, commission based, or according to the project. You will either be paid by check, direct deposit, or through a service that receives the payment on your behalf from an individual or company.

There are a multitude of work at home opportunities such as mystery shopping, product demonstrations, product assembly, and clerical. Clerical opportunities include telemarketing, customer service, transcription, typing, booking, and freelance writing and illustrating to make money.

You can make money by mystery shopping . This is when a company pays you to patronize locations such as merchandise stores, banks, cable companies, grocery stores, fast food and family restaurants, and dealerships. As a mystery shopper, a keen eye for detail is needed to submit a thorough report of the visit. For example, if your mystery shop was at a family restaurant, you would report items such as the name of the hostess and your waitress, the cleanliness of the restaurant, the signage, when and how the food was served, and if the hostess or waitress said anything when they brought the check. Mystery shops pay a set amount for each shop.

Product demonstrations are done at grocery stores, department stores, and specialty stores. As a food product demonstrator, you would bring your own table and demonstrate and offer a certain food product from a specific manufacturer. For example, the featured food product may be a certain brand of peanut butter and particular brand of bread. You would be making and offering bite-size peanut butter samples on bread along with product information. Other types of demonstrations include electronic products or new items on the market that the manufacturer wants presented to the public. Demonstrators are paid by the hour, and the project may last several days.

There are many companies that pay you to assemble their products and return the finished merchandise to them. You are paid so much money for so much merchandise. The drawback is that you have to pay them for the initial kit, make a few of the items for their inspection and approval, and then they will give you the green light to continue assembling their products to make money.

You can make money from the many clerical opportunities online to choose from. Telemarketing positions include soliciting for newspapers, magazines, health and business insurance, pet insurance, carpet cleaning, alarm systems, fire safety systems, and much more. Many companies hire work-at-home customer service representatives who either make outbound calls or receive inbound calls concerning products and/or services. These positions are paid by the hour, commission, or both.

Many companies also need qualified transcribers for medical, legal, and various business professions. The appropriate software and equipment are essential to perform these projects. Many organizations hire virtual assistants, who are clerical employees working at home but perform the same duties as a secretary, receptionist, booking agent, and other similar positions. The job duties may include answering incoming calls, making calls, data entry, research, and reports. These positions pay by the hour.

Booking agents may require online participation or faxed call sheets with names, addresses, and phone numbers to contact for certain events can be faxed to the agent. These events could include dinners, seminars, or workshops to listen to product demonstrations. This position is usually paid by commission.

Some companies don’t require you to work online. They hire work-at-home solicitors to request donations of clothing, food, or money for various organizations. These positions are usually also paid by commission.

You can make money by freelance writing and illustrating which can be accomplished even by amateurs. If you have excellent spelling and grammar skills, try writing articles or short stories to make money. This could also lead to writing a book in the future. If you can draw people or animals, you may want to look into illustrating children’s books. Be creative and come up with an illustrative book of your own characters and adventures. Many popular comics appearing in local newspapers are being enjoyed as a compilation in book form. Maybe you have kids or pets that you could model a book or even comic strip of your own. Draw up some sample comics and approach your local newspaper and make money as a comic writer. You might just get lucky and be in the funny papers! If not, publish your own book and sell it at flea markets, festivals, fairs, and the local book store to make money.

TIPS

To find opportunities online, there are online agencies that will help you find a work at home position to make money.

There are also multiple job boards that you can examine for work at home positions.

Find work that you will enjoy and look forward to each day. Working at home is great because you can stay in your pajamas all day if you feel like it and still make money!

WARNINGS

Some of the work at home assembly projects are scams. You could pay $20 or more for the initial kit. The kit only includes enough materials to make one item. You have to buy the rest of the materials either from the company or from your local store. Sometimes the instructions are very hard to understand or don’t make sense. It may not be worth it in the long run to try to make money this way. This is a way for that company to make money from you.

As a work at home independent contractor or employee, it is not legitimate if a company requests that you pay a fee before you work for them. It is acceptable if a company charges you a small fee to perform a background check. Many local companies that you would work for in person may do this, too.

Be careful of scams. How to make money by taking online surveys may be misleading. Some surveys request your credit card number and your participation in free trials that you can cancel at any time. Be cautious about giving out your credit card information. You may end up paying for more free trials than you bargained for.

HOW TO MAKE MONEY -- SALES

If you want to be in sales to make money, you can sell wellness and beauty products, electronic cigarettes, books, kitchenware, household products, candles, and just about anything else you could think of. You can sell your products at fairs, festivals, flea markets, stores, or have open houses and invite family, friends, or the public. These positions are commission based.

TIPS

Don’t be afraid to approach family and friends with your catalogs to make money. Be assertive but courteous when selling your product. Keep in contact with customers as new products are available and you will have repeat business.

WARNINGS

Some of these companies wanting you to distribute their product may charge a set up fee or investment fee before you get started. Other organizations require you to pay for their products up front even before you have any buyers. Others may have a minimum number of items to purchase which may cost more than you would want to pay to get started.

STEPS -- HOW TO MAKE MONEY -- STARTING YOUR OWN BUSINESS

Don’t be afraid to start your own business. Look around you and talk to people to get a feel for what they need and want. Start a home improvement or handyman business, advertise your carpentry or building skills, tutor school children, offer pet sitting services or diaper cleaning services, run errands for others or anything else you can think of to make money. There’s even a person that offers doggy doo picker upper services and makes money!

You could advertise to sell other people’s items for them and make money for yourself at the same time. People always have items to sell that didn’t sell at the garage sale or yard sale or vehicles, collectibles, appliances, or just every day items. You would sell these items for a negotiated commission, and advertise their availability in the newspaper or online. The latest craze is working as an online auctioneer to sell these items to make money.

STEPS -- HOW TO MAKE MONEY -- MISCELLANEOUS

Being a newspaper carrier is not just for kids anymore. Many newspapers are turning to adults to deliver their newspapers to businesses and residences.

At some point in anyone‘s life, they have needed something that hasn‘t been invented yet or is not available on the market. Take notice of what would make your life easier from day to day, and invent a product to sell to make money. The product can be big, small, whimsical, unusual, or ordinary. Just think of the inventers that dreamed up pet rocks, toothpicks, or even a wire contraption that massages the head! These creative people are laughing all the way to the bank!

If you are a person who enjoys sewing or making craft items, selling your crafts is an excellent and fun way how to make money. You can display your wares at festivals, fairs, flea markets, craft shows, and local stores. Gift items are also a great product, especially around the holidays. Think of kitchen needs that would be tremendous gift items such as mason jars filled with all the dry ingredients needed to make cookies or cakes with instructions attached. Be creative and have fun with it.

Every household has scrap metal in the basement, garage, or yard collecting dust. If you are really in a bind for money, sell scrap metal to the local scrap metal yard. You will be paid by the ton for the metal you bring in. This is a great way how to make money and at the same time get rid of that old furnace, water heater, nonworking appliance, or anything metal that you can find and can’t use anymore. Starting your own scrap metal pickup service is also how to make money. You haul the scrap metal that other people want to get rid of. They would pay you for taking it away plus get paid by the local scrap metal yard.

Have a yard sale or garage sale and sell useable items to make money. You can supply items to sell from your own household, your friends, family, estate sales, flea markets, or just drive around town and check out what goodies other people are discarding that may still be of good use. If you live in a commercially zoned area, think about starting up a flea market in your barn or basement. You could charge for table space as a way to make money.

HOW TO MAKE MONEY -- IF YOU ARE A TEENAGER

If you are a teenager but not old enough yet to work at the fast food restaurants, there are ways to make money. You can mow lawns, perform yard work, shovel snow, clean out basements or garages, clean houses, work at a farm, or deliver newspapers. Be creative and listen when you hear adults discussing what needs to be done.

CONCLUSION

Be creative and have fun with whatever you do if you don’t want the customary methods of how to make money by working a standard job. Today’s economy is making a lot of people think outside the box when it comes to how to make money to support themselves or their family.

Rulers Of Nations - How to make money and gain popularity

2011-11-22T17:29:00.007+01:00

Gaining popularity can be made by the following methods:
- Dismantling terrorist groups.
- Expand public services.
- Lowering taxes.
- Good foreign relations.

To make money you need to TRADE:
Hopefully by now your economy is standing up on its own. Now that you have a lot of money, you can focus on more important things, like getting more money. You'll need all the money you can get. Never are you going to utter the phrase "I have enough money" while playing GPS.

The best way to do this is by economic agreements with other countries.
Anyway, some find this harder to do than others but a little wisdom is all you need. The first thing to do is find out what your country produces too much of. Go into the Economy screen (AKA the Agriculture, Industry, Services, and Energy window and find your excesses.

Now go to the upper left corner where the spinning globe is, next to it there are six icons that show different map overlays. Click the one that says "Economic Relations" or something like that. That brings up a lovely Technicolor map overlay of all the countries with whom you're on economically good terms. Green countries are ones that like to trade with you. Red countries don't. See where I'm going with this? Only attempt trade agreements with green countries.

Pick a few countries out of that group and meet with their leaders. Exchange cordialities, offer them coffee, compliment their country, then get them sauced. Now make a deal. Drunk leaders always make the best deals. Go into the economic treaty screen and propose a "Annual Volume of Sales" treaty. Always do the "Sales" one, because that means you're going to sell resources to the other country. Pick the resource that you have too much of. Sometimes the country you're meeting with has an excess in that resource, too. If that's the case, meet with another country. Your best bet for making the agreements work is if you sell to a country that is lacking in that particular resource. The AI calculates need before want into whether or not a country will accept your proposal. Then you pick your price. I suggest jacking it up by a few hundred dollars. The other country will always counter by suggesting a lower price, which you can raise a little more, and then an agreement is reached. It's just haggling. A drunk head of state helps, too. Then you choose the amount of years you want the deal to cover. ALWAYS CHOOSE ONE (1) YEAR. This means that the deal will be completed at the end of the year, meaning that at the end of the year you will be paid in full. You won't have to wait around 2 or 3 years to get all of your money. This way is the fastest, and if the other country is really in need of the resource, they will want a one year deal too. *Note* "Alchohol has been removed in game."

Now you'll see your income steadily rise, granted that the deal was worth a lot of money. Just repeat the process until you start netting at least a few hundred million. You can now safely start allocating money into your domestic budget. Right off the bat, raise your Secret Services agent training and terrorism bars to at least 9 stars. Then start infiltrating terrorist networks, dismantling them, and repeating. Put money into the important public areas like health, welfare, public safety, education, and youth. Those areas are your Big 5, and will make or break you throughout the game. By clicking the arrow under your name you'll switch to Popularity mode, which indicates how the population feels about your actions as head of state. When a frowny face appears next to any one of the Big 5, you'd better take notice and do something about it. Keep your population happy. And always keep your eye on that inflation.
