Why I care About Hulk Hogan's Divorce

    Sunday, September 16, 2012, 3:32 PM [General]

    In the past I have written vociferously about how much I dislike the media need to incessantly report on celebrity divorce, noting that I find it to be both insipid and disrespectful. This morning, however, I discovered that one of my childhood heroes became divorced around two years ago and,beijing escort girl, for just a moment, my opinion changed. The celebrity in question: professional wrestling legend Terry Bollea aka Hulk Hogan. As juvenile as it may be, I was sad to hear of this individual divorce as I still remember his heroic, albeit fictional,beijing massage, feats. He seemed invincible when I was a child and in many ways, I think that those memories never leave you. What I found particular upsetting was the sheer lopsided of the divorce settlement. Hogan retained only 30 per cent of the couple liquid assets and also handed over a significant percentage of the values of their joint properties and several luxury vehicles including a Rolls-Royce, Mercedes and a Corvette. Despite having reached adulthood, I still viewed Hogan as invincible and discovering his divorce has shattered this perception. Divorce, it seems, can affect all of us ?irrespective of success,Is Your Ex Acting Super Stubborn & Avoiding You Li, intellect or wealth. What a shame.

    Ray Ban on the red carpet!

    Sunday, September 16, 2012, 3:31 PM [General]

    Rayban is a high end manufacturer of eyewear and may be the best-selling sunglasses brand worldwide. The history of the brand goes way back to the 30s and it's connected with the US Army Air Corps, as the first pair of sunglasses was created to prevent eye damage from the sun for the airmen. Since then, the Ray-ban frames and lenses have widely diversified and have grown in popularity among civilians as well. Moreover, celebrities have gone crazy about them and started wearing them at every public appearance. The 90s brought about a small setback though, when wraparound frames gained a lot of popularity, especially among women. But the redesign of 2001 in their most famous model,beijing massage, the Wayfarer, put them back on top again. The media coverage is impressive. The cute, little writing on the side of the sunglasses' arms makes quite an impression. Wayfarers have been proudly worn by actors and singers, starting with Michael Jackson and ending with the famous character of Edward Cullen, from the Twilight Saga. Hereinafter, you can find out the most famous appearances of the Ray Ban sunglasses in Hollywood movies. They have certainly contributed to the personality of the characters that wore the sunglasses and, more often than not, left a memorable visual in the minds of the beholders. A sure name on the list would be Ridley Scott's "Body of lies", where Leonardo DiCaprio's character, a CIA agent, is wearing two of the Rayban models in several scenes, and were even used for the poster image. As mentionable is the film "Daredevil", starring Ben Affleck, whose character is wearing Ray-ban Predator Olympia with custom red lenses throughout the entire movie. Oh, and let's not forget the blockbuster from 2008, "The dark knight". If Batman wears Ray-bans, who wouldn't want to?! The list is long and, although we're not going to go through the nearly a hundred movies that showed the sunglasses, I am going to make a few more important stops, the first of which is Brad Pitt. The overly publicized icon wore Aviators from the famous brand in "The curious case of Benjamin Button", which perfectly completed the character's look. Further down, we have the noteworthy classics like Will Smith in "Men in Black", Clint Eastwood in "Dirty Harry", Tom Cruise in "Risky business" or the ones that started it all in 1980,escort beijing, Dan Aykroyd and John Belushi in the timeless "The Blues Brothers", wearing the Wayfarers. Also, as a statement to the contemporary American pop culture, Robert Pattinson wears Ray-ban Wayfarers in his performance as vampire in the "Twilight" saga. Their models and designs have set trends that many others have tried to follow, but for a connoisseur the difference is visible. For instance, many claim that iconic figure Audrey Hepburn wore Ray Ban sunglasses in the notorious "Breakfast at Tiffany's", but in reality the model belonged to designer Oliver Goldsmith and was called Manhattan. The controversial John F. Kennedy was thought to have worn Wayfarers, though no one could ever be sure,Who Is Batman The Mythology of the Dark Knight, and so were Bob Dylan or Andy Warhol. Regardless of whether they were in fact Raybans or not, the designs were definitely set forth by the famous brand.

    Movie Review - The Incredible Hulk

    Sunday, September 16, 2012, 3:31 PM [General]

    Marvel Studios has released their second film of 2008, and while not as highly anticipated as Iron Man, there is a lot of buzz surround The Incredible Hulk. Marvel has decided to reboot the Hulk franchise, ignoring Ang Lee's Hulk movie which was not well received at all. This time around, Louis Leterrier (The Transporter 1 and 2) is at the helm, and there is much more action as a result. This film is very much an homage to the Bill Bixby/Lou Ferigno TV series from the 1980s. Many images in the film are straight out of the show, as well as the Hulk's origin. Even the theme music makes an appearance. But there are also a lot of comic book references as well, including the Mr. Green/Mr. Blue exchange from Bruce Jones' "Return of the Monster" storyline, and cameos by some familiar comic characters. Banner is in hiding after his first Hulk-out, where he nearly killed his girlfriend, Betty, and her father, General Thunderbolt Ross. But he's slipped up, and now the General is closing in, which gives the movie a Fugitive-type feel. To help hunt Banner down, General Ross assembles a team of specialists, including Emil Blonksy, a life-long soldier who loves a challenge. After Blonsky sees the Hulk first hand, he wants to do whatever it takes to bring him down,beijing escorts, including being injected with the Super Soldier Serum (hinting at the upcoming Captain America film). This gives him enhanced strength and speed, but it's not enough for Blonsky. So he's infused with some of Banner's blood and becomes the Abomination, and monster bigger and badder than the Hulk. This sets up the film's final confrontation between the two monsters. All of the roles from the first film have been recast,Why Do Men Pull Away From Women Understanding This, with Edward Norton playing Dr. Bruce Banner/The Hulk,beijing escort girl, Liv Tyler as Betty Ross, and William Hurt as General Thunderbolt Ross. Tim Roth (Reservoir Dogs) plays the Emil Blonsky/The Abomination. Marvel has done it again with the casting, and everyone plays their roles perfectly. Norton really shines as Banner, and it's great that he gets a chance to strut his stuff in an action/comic book movie. The Hulk looks like he's supposed to this time - Nine feet tall, green and mean. The film makers were able to capture more emotion in this Hulk which should make him more acceptable as a CGI character. The CGI Hulk didn't bother me at all, but the Abomination was a bit much. He really looks nothing like his comic book counterpart, and more like a mini-Godzilla crossed with something out of a horror movie. The best parts of the film are when Banner is on the run. That's not to say that the Hulk scenes were bad - most of them weren't - but one of the things that made the Hulk TV show work well was the Fugitive aspect of it, and it works well here, too. The weakest part of the movie is the big Hulk/Abomination battle. Maybe it was the CGI, maybe it was that seeing two monsters beat the tar out of each other can only go so far, but it just didn't work for me. The final scene of the movie also seemed forced and out of place. I think that it would have worked better a little earlier than where it showed up. Despite that, it's a great scene for the fans. Since I'm a movie score nut, I've got to deduct points again for the music in the film. Much like Iron Man, the music has no themes for any of the characters, nothing that you walk away from the film humming, (except a few bars from the Hulk TV show). It would be nice to see a recognizable name composing music for future Marvel films, because so far, they've been pretty lame. Overall, The Incredible Hulk is far superior to the Ang Lee Hulk movie. It's faster paced, more engaging, and just plain fun. Fans of the TV show will like it, fans of the comic books will like it, and even casual fans should enjoy it. I'm giving the Incredible Hulk a B rating. Thanks for reading.

    He Compares Me to His Ex!

    Tuesday, September 4, 2012, 9:41 PM [General]

    Liz is sick and tired of her boyfriend comparing her to his ex. She feels like she can't match up to the image he has-- in his mind-- of his ex-girlfriend, whom he almost married. Whenever Liz cooks a meal for her boyfriend, meets his friends and family members for the first time and even when they're making love with one another, she feels as if she's being judged and rated. Her abilities, her body and looks, her sense of humor and her skill in bed never seem to quite match up to her boyfriend's ex. This relationship is important to Liz. She's never felt like this about a guy before. Most of her past relationships have been total and utter failures, leaving her scarred. This one seems different-- except for the fact that the "ghost" of her boyfriend's (alive and well) ex is always present and keeps coming between them. Comparisons. We all do it from time to time. Parents sometimes compare their kids. Employers frequently compare their employees. When you go to a movie or watch a television show, you probably compare it to others of a similar genre that you've viewed. Comparing also happens in a love relationship or marriage. Your partner might provide subtle clues that he is sizing you up in a particular way and rating how you compare with other women. You might do the same thing with him,beijing escort girl,Job Got You Down You Too Deserve A Business You Love!, in fact. How often have you seen or heard about another guy sweeping his woman off her feet with a romantic gesture and then thought, "My guy never does that kind of thing for me!" While there is some amount of comparing that inevitably goes on, when you are aware that your partner is regularly comparing you to his ex, this can be devastating. It can lead to jealousy, conflict and distance in your relationship. Talking with him about it might have seemed to back-fire in the past. Perhaps your man claimed you were "making it all up" or even called you "crazy." As a result, you may have stopped voicing your objections to being compared to his ex and tried to ignore how hurt you feel. If so, how is that working for you? (Probably not too well.) Be wise and really listen. One thing you've got to do when it seems like your partner is comparing you to his ex is to get clear. Take a symbolic step back and invite yourself to really listen to what your partner is saying to you. What are his actual words or actions that seem to (or literally) compare you with his ex? It could be that he very plainly is making judgments about you relative to his ex. It could also be that you're misinterpreting what he's saying or your own insecurities are clouding your perspective. It could also be a mix of these and more. Just take the time to be very clear about what is truly going on. I also encourage you to be wise. If he is actually comparing you to his ex and he is possibly still having contact with her, this might be something to pay closer attention to. Make requests without blame or judgment. If your partner is comparing you to his ex, you can ask him to stop. The trick here is to make your request without blame,beijing escorts, judgment or hostility. All of these will put even more distance and tension between you two. Use an "I feel" statement to let him know what's true for you when he makes the comparison. For example, you might say, "I feel inferior/less than/like I'm not attractive to you.... when you compare me to your ex." You don't have to make him wrong or "bad." It could be that he's not aware that this habit of his is having this effect on you. What you do probably want to do is let him know that you feel hurt when he does this. Together, you two could come up with some new ways to talk about what you each want and need in the relationship. If, for instance, he'd like you to be more adventurous in bed, suggest that he make that request directly...without bringing up what he and his ex used to do when they made love. This isn't the most comfortable kind of conversation to have with your partner, but when you really hear one another and you come to a resolution that works for both of you, all kinds of barriers to relationship connection fall away.

    Job Got You Down You Too Deserve A Business You Love!

    Tuesday, September 4, 2012, 9:40 PM [General]

    I recently read a story in Susan Crandall's inspiring book "Thinking About Tomorrow ?Reinventing Yourself at Midlife" about a man named George O. George earned a degree in horticulture, worked for the USDA, and later had a thriving career in the banking industry. He had been successful in all of his careers, but none were his passion. To the amazement of his friends and family, George left banking and bought a small-town zoo. He is now a happy zookeeper, passionate about his new life. What made George reinvent himself in his mid-forties? A wake-up call came when his brother-in-law was killed in a plane crash. This made him realize: "I could die tomorrow and miss out on something I really wanted to do." This is George's lesson from his reinvention: "Owning a business can mean longer hours than you'd ever imagined working, but suddenly that's more than okay. There's a new calculus when you're doing something you love." Midlife reinvention is becoming the passion of many of us baby boomers, who are finally willing to listen to that quiet inner voice telling us it's time to move on and find a life we truly love - before it's too late. I, too, chose to listen to my inner voice and left a corporate job I had for 24 years. I now consider myself happily "unemployable". Owning and operating two businesses is stressful and exhausting at times - but I would never trade my new life for the old one. I prefer having the freedom to make up my life as I go along. Do you feel that you're gifted or talented in a particular area, but you've never had the time to find out if you're right? Is there something you've been dreaming about doing your entire life, but have been too busy raising children and paying the mortgage to give it a fighting chance? There comes a time in our lives when we realize that it doesn't matter how gifted, talented, or attracted we are to something if we choose to ignore it and bury our heads in the routine of everyday life. And then the question in your mind becomes, "How old is too old to pursue my dream?" Here's another example of midlife reinvention or re-creation, from Positive Thinking Magazine,beijing escorts, Jan/Feb 2007. Judi W. retired from a successful 20-year career to pursue her lifelong dream of becoming a flight attendant - at the age of 62. This was her second new career. At the age of 42 she earned her funeral director license. Although she loved taking care of people, it was difficult moving up in that male-dominated field. However,Raffles Spa Dubai Launches World Class Eve Lom Treatments, she worked hard and became the first female funeral director at the company she worked for. This experience gave her the confidence she needed to move into her real dream career as a flight attendant. Now she flies 12 legs over four days, then has 10 days off. Judi says, "By the end of the 10 days, I'm chomping at the bit to get back to work". Here are Judi's tips on how to do what you love and love what you do. "You're never too old! I took on new careers at 42 and 62." "Look out for #1. When you take care of yourself, no one else will need to." "Have an attitude of gratitude. Be grateful for everything you've been given." If you're thinking about re-creating your life, here are some thoughts for you to consider. Seeing your life as little and insignificant doesn't serve yourself or anyone else. Recreating yourself may be just the thing you need to do to serve the world. You were born with the power to create yourself in whatever manner you choose. However, the changes you want must be done through you - not to you. No one outside of you can give you a magic potion that will bring you the results you are looking for. These results must be earned by your willingness to see in new ways and by letting go of old, limiting beliefs. If you're looking for peace in your decision to make the changes necessary to recreate yourself, first find the peace within yourself by finding your truth. Your strength to make life changes comes from knowing yourself and what's true for you. What compels you to live fully and passionately? If you can't find your truth, then the time may not be right to make a drastic change in your life. Making changes at the wrong time can lead to stress; and stress robs you of your peace, good health, and well being. In my life,escort beijing, I have found that anything that feels stressful is not a right decision. If you already feel physically ill and overly stressed, anxious, nervous, and unable to function at your full capacity, consider waiting and reevaluating the changes you're considering. The time may be right at a later date. Take it one step at a time. Drastic changes are difficult to undo. It may be best to take baby steps on the way to your re-creation. If it's a career change, you may need to take a vacation and spend part of it "walking in someone's shoes" who is already doing what you think you want to do. There is nothing like the education of actually doing the work of your aspired profession. There are resources on the internet that offer "career tryouts", which would place you in a volunteer internship lasting 1 to 30 days. This would allow you to be a silent observer or active participant, depending on your level of skills and courage. Be aware of how this re-creation will affect the parts of your life that are most important to you. It's likely that a career or life change will take a great deal of your time, at least in the beginning stages. If spending time with your family and friends is a high priority for you right now, consider this in the choices you make about career directions. Be willing to face and embrace the unknown. Trying to look too far ahead may keep you right where you are. If I had known what was ahead of me, I'm not sure I would have made the decisions I made. I would have missed out on my new life that holds all the unlimited possibilities of freedom and abundance. Contrary to what the media would have you believe, there's plenty of time to re-create your new life. Remember, it's the feeling behind the form that tells you what you really want. Consider this - if you can find a way to create that feeling right now, your steps to creating your new life will come easier and more quickly, if you decide to move forward.

    Tuesday, September 4, 2012, 9:40 PM [General]

    Creating your own Easter gift ideas is one way of making sure that the item you hand over is absolutely perfect for the person you're giving it to, and also expresses something of your own personality. The versatility of digital technology makes it possible to take your own favourite photographs and turn them into bespoke photo gifts such as custom-made luxury photo books. In the past, before the widespread take up of digital photography, the idea of turning your most impressive images into individual photo gifts would have seemed somewhat far-fetched. After all, once an image had been developed and printed and you were holding the photograph in your hands, there wouldn't really have seemed that much that could be done with it. Perhaps it could be stuck into a frame, or maybe enlarged and mounted, but that was the end of the options, since the actual physical nature of the way in which you used to print photos counted against the possibilities of doing anything more imaginative. Images which are stored digitally, on the other hand,beijing escort, are open to a huge plethora of adaptations and expansions, and many of these are absolutely ideal for anyone trying to come up with original Easter gift ideas.

The paper used would always be of the highest possible quality, being rich, thick and glossy, and allowing the photo-prints to be displayed with glowing colours and clear, sharp lines. The front and back covers would be constructed form luxury quality materials,beijing escort girl,Handling A Bad Hire, Part 1, with the whole bound in a manner which meant it was solidly constructed and built to last for many years. Now it's possible to do exactly the same with your own favourite photographs. Many people opt to take advantage of this chance to make their own wedding photo albums, producing something which is both less expensive than those which are professionally produced, and likely to feature a more personal and individual selection of images. Although ideal for occasions such as weddings, however, volumes such as these also make excellent gifts at special times of the year such as Easter. Whether you want to fill the pages with prized family snaps or the best and most artistic photographs you've taken, the choice is yours and the process is completely simple. Upload the images you wish to turn into a book, and then utilise the software to design the layout of each and every page and include features such as explanatory text. Once you've made every choice, the finished volume will be produced to the kind of high standard normally only available from high street bookshops.

    Modern Wedding Video Memories

    Tuesday, September 4, 2012, 9:39 PM [General]

    Looking at the differences between traditional wedding videography & wedding cinematography is like looking at the differences between a short story & an epic tale. You can read a fantastic short story that you love, but will still only read it a few times before you know it back to front & become bored with it. An epic tale is a novel you can read over & over again without getting tired of it. The same thing goes for wedding cinematography. Some people still opt to have traditional videography of their wedding done, but more & more people are choosing cinematic videography, better known as cinematography,beijing escort girl, to capture their wedding day for a more original, creative & emotional memory, one that they can watch over & over again for the rest of their lives. Traditional event videography, if done properly, will document your day for you in continuously clear,The Mind Muscle Connection - Bodybuilding, beautifully lit wedding filming. If done by an amateur (say, for example, a relative or friend) it will document your day for you in continuously out-of-focus, poorly lit wedding filming. While there is nothing wrong with traditional videography & it may suit many people, it doesn't have the same heart or creativity that cinematic wedding videography has. Wedding cinematography will capture perfect highlights of your day & put them together to create a heart-warming story, as opposed to a step-by-step, monotonous account, which can become boring & repetitive. A good wedding cinematographer is like a good movie director: they have the tools,escort beijing, creative vision & professional eye to capture the most memorable & touching moments of an event, then to put them together (often as a mix of images, music & speeches) to create an epic story, one that tells a tale & has heart, one that will stand the test of time. When choosing a wedding videographer to do your wedding video in cinematic style, do your research & choose the one that speaks to your emotions. For example, if you are looking at wedding videography, go online & research wedding video cinematic highlights. This will give you a feel for how that videographer works & how they tell a story, & will let you know if their style of cinematography (aka- storytelling) is the right style for you. If chosen wisely, your wedding cinematographer or videographer will orchestrate & create an amazing cinematic wedding video of you & your partner that you will love & treasure for the rest your lives. For the ultimate mix of both worlds, have a look at getting both a traditional wedding video and a cinematic wedding video.

    The Perfect Storm Rages On

    Monday, August 27, 2012, 5:57 PM [General]

    It wasn all that long ago when the real estate market was flourishing. For many seasoned veterans, it was a time that they had long worked hard for and they were reaping the benefits of those long hours, weekend days away from the family, and the countless calls and showings and listings when times were a bit rough. It was the culmination of a lifetime of dedication and perseverance. Not even the band of wagon jumpers could rain on that parade and we, as an industry, were so caught up in the positives that most of us refused to see, or simply missed the signs, that it would come to an end someday. After all, when times are wonderful, why would we want to think about what might go wrong? Then the wheels came off Ultimately, though,beijing escort, the old adage proved right once more hat goes up must come down. The market took hits from more than one front and they came at us in waves, one after another, and continue to beat down on the market and as we look back, all we can do is summarize what transpired during the past few years as the perfect storm. The storm that simply refuses to relent, move on, or let up. Defaulted mortgages, adjusting rates, and property values plummeting was the tip of this proverbial iceberg. Unemployment rising and an economy that seems destined to stagnate for a long time have continued to pound the market, removing millions of potential buyers from the market,beijing escorts, leaving sellers and foreclosed homes stuffing the market with under-priced and under-valued homes. Too many cooks in the kitchen And still, with all the trouble the industry is facing, it seems that there are more cooks in the kitchen for the dwindling market and revenue. As millions of Americans have lost their jobs and are seeing a bleak work market, many of them turn to the real estate market as a potential way to take control of their financial futures. They hear to promises from Washington, D.C. about how the market is rebounding, how the incentives for people to buy are coming, how TARP is working, and all that political rhetoric. They don see the reality; times are changing and when people don change with them, then the trouble continues to brew for those stagnant souls. The reality is that even through all of these fires, through these ragingly difficult times, we could survive. The strong real estate agents and brokers, the ones with experience and perseverance, would survive, and we have. But now we face the next wave of the Perfect Storm and this one can threaten all of us. Technology sticks it nose into the fray As if times weren bad enough, the traditional agents and brokers who have worked so hard to build their clientele and identities, who work for the biggest and most reputable names in the industry, are facing a technological shift that can leave us all reeling, even long after the long-touted ecovery?actually begins. This article is not about the technology hat is covered in more detail in the next article- but rather how technology is the silent killer, the wind that is ravaging the calm, or the illusion of calm. If you haven noticed the impact that the Internet has had on businesses across the world, then it time that you woke up to this reality and faced it head-on. If youe a dinosaur and still want r need- to compete in our modern society, then you can no longer hide from technology. The Internet has changed how people shop for and buy goods and services, and it changing how they find homes. When you add up all that wee endured for the past three years,Special Effects In The Movies, and youe still kicking in this business, then consider yourself a survivor ou will endure. But it time to face the next phase of this storm and if you don have a web presence or are not technologically savvy, then you might very well be in trouble in the future. David

    Family Christmas Gift Exchange Games

    Monday, August 27, 2012, 5:56 PM [General]

    It used to be that families had no rules about gift buying. Everyone bought for everyone else, and gifts were exchanged when the family all got together somewhere during the Christmas season. These days,escort beijing, it's more common for people to draw a name out of a hat or get assigned a person to buy for. Or the family creates a type of "white elephant" exchange instead of having family members buy for individuals in particular. So, what many families need is a fun way to exchange the gifts, whether they be for a specific person or whether they are 'white elephant" type gifts. If the family members drew names, there are several fun things you can do. The gifts can be hidden and clues given as to the location of the gifts. So,Blueprint life of real life, if you arrive at grandma's house with your gift for Aunt Martha, you might tuck her gift into a kitchen cabinet. Then you'd create a series of clue as to here it is. You might say, "Cinnamon lurks here" or "it's the hub of the home, but not always the home of the hub". The clues can be silly or deadly serious. They can be designed so someone will know where to find their present in just minutes, or designed so that it takes a series of clues to get someone right to their gift. If the group is small or the house particularly large, and the participants have the time you can always create a hunt where more than one tip is left and one tip leads to another, which leads to another until the gift is finally found. Why should the kids have all the fun? Create some fun gift exchange ideas for adults. Whether the family is doing a name draw and exchanging regular gifts or not, you can have some good family fun with a white elephant gift exchange. How about a themed white elephant gift exchange? If the family is into fishing,beijing escorts, you could create that as a theme. Everyone must bring a gift related to fishing (this could be anything from sporting goods items, to a singing bass that goes on the wall). It could be a hand held electronic fishing game or a board game with fishing as a theme. In that same vein, you could create a "cooking" white elephant exchange or a camping themed gift exchange. Again, it's more about what will please members of the family than anything. Then create some fun games for the exchange itself. Perhaps everyone draws a number and gets to pick their gifts from the pile in the middle based on their number. Perhaps you begin the game that way, but then also people to 'steal' someone else's gift if they choose. You can require that the gift recipient shakes a gift, studies a gift and makes a good, educated guess as to its contents before opening it. If they are right, they can "steal" someone else's gift, but if they are wrong, they keep theirs. Add to the silliness factor by playing a card game and dictating that people can't get their gift and open it until they win a hand in the card game (ideally something fairly quick like poker or rummy). The idea behind any family gift exchange should be enjoying each other's company and enjoying the Christmas spirit. As long as it's fun and engaging, there's no reason why the adults in the family can't have some fun games for exchanging gifts just the kids might.

    Boost Workplace Productivity - Make 'Em Laugh!

    Thursday, August 16, 2012, 3:50 AM [General]

    Any time you walk through the halls of an elementary school or frequent a playground all you hear are giggles and laughter, but when you walk the maze of cubicles at work or along the hallways in your office, you rarely hear those same sounds of glee. It's not that we have outgrown laughter as we have entered adulthood, but work is generally viewed as a place to be serious so that lots of work can get done. Now research tells us that a little humor and laughter at work can go a long way. Often referred to as the "best medicine,beijing escort," laughter at work is gaining ground as an easy way to brighten the workday and boost the overall health of your workplace or organization. Because there is a growing amount of research that supports the benefits of laughter at work, humor is now getting the professional respect it deserves. The benefits of laughter The Global Coaches Network is one supporter of laughter in the workplace. The organization claims that: Laughter increases productivity Those who laugh out loud are more creative at problem solving Those who laugh have better memory retention Those who laugh experience less stress Laughter is a major coping mechanism Those who laugh together may work more effectively together A study conducted at Canadian financial institutions found that managers who most frequently used humor also had the highest level of employee performance. Dr. William Fry of Stanford University found that laughing 200 times can burn as many calories as rowing intensely for 10 minutes, boosting your energy and giving you that alive feeling. David Sloan Wilson, an evolutionary biologist at Bingham University, discusses laughter at work in his new book, 'Evolution For Everyone.' Wilson finds laughter to be a good thing for any workplace. "When it is appropriate, laughter puts everyone in a merry mood. Mechanistically, the brain releases a cocktail of chemicals similar to those that we take artificially to give ourselves a good time such as opium or morphine. So besides feeling good, we also act good." Laughing at work Leigh Anne Jasheway, M.P.H. and comedian, says that you don't want to encourage pranks or have everyone at work turn into the court jester, but recommends these methods for using laughter at work: Include humorous quotes in communications Encourage employees to share and laugh at their own misstep Use improv games as icebreakers and stress busters Provide crayons and construction paper at meetings for creative doodling Organize group activities outside of work that include community service and fun Get creative with it. Rich Enos, CEO and co-founder of Study Point, Inc. says that his small company of mostly telecommuters uses laughter and humor to build a corporate culture. "We have impromptu theme days as well as caption contests, like the ones in the New Yorker." Work should not feel like punishment -- we've been saying that for years -- and now there is scientific research that proves it. A little laughter at work is just what people need in this time of change and financial fluctuation. If laughter is also proven to make us happier,reed tieri, more effective workers, then bring on the whoopee cushion,beijing escort girl!

    Senior Care for Dementia

    Thursday, August 16, 2012, 3:49 AM [General]

    Senior care for dementia can rapidly address, manage and improve the quality of life not only of the sufferer of this condition, but also for family members and loved ones involved in their care. Because this illness occurs in multiple forms and affects each person differently, it's important to understand that senior care for dementia must be individualized in its approach to manage care and support of patients and their families. Knowing exactly what senior care can do for your loved one afflicted with dementia is critical in order to make the right choices for your family. There are four primary functions that senior care for dementia serves: 1.) Help prepare the home for proper care In many cases difficulties in caring for a loved one with dementia arise because the home living environment is not properly equipped to provide the right level of support. In-home care specialists will often work together with family members to create a safe and functional space that caters to the needs of a dementia patient. This can include: *Installation of security and safety devices (locks on doors and windows for seniors that might wander and become disoriented, safety locks on dangerous household items, rubber runners on furniture edges, etc.) *Ramps for use with wheelchairs, walkers or canes *Safety bars in the shower,beijing escort, near the toilet,escort beijing, and anywhere else where physical stability is needed in the home *Installation of safety lights, night lights and other means of illumination *Arrangement of household furniture for better access, including acquisition of senior-care related items like specialized chairs or recliners. *Management or restriction of automobile use when required Of course, this is just a partial list - each case is different and so each home will therefore need to be setup differently in order to provide the right level of care. 2.) Education As a result of a lack of knowledge on the part of family and others involved in caring for a dementia patient,Eddie Munster Bike from the TV Show, The Munsters, some seniors may not receive the type of treatment and care they need. A senior care in-home service will help to carefully educate family members and others that interact with the dementia-afflicted senior about this condition and how it can be correctly managed. This education is also critical in order to assist loved ones in understanding dementia-related behaviors that might be difficult to deal with if not approached from the right perspective. 3.) Direct care The primary benefit of a senior care for dementia service is the direct care involved. This can help to alleviate the often stressful burden of constant care for a person who is no longer able to properly care for themselves. Direct care includes: *Hygiene - bathing, teeth care, showering and grooming *Assistance with mobility *Care for incontinence *Grocery shopping, meal preparation and special diet maintenance *Limited housekeeping, laundry *Shopping and errands *Transportation to appointments *Medication Reminders *Relief and respite care for family or other caregivers *Companionship
