So logically

The Law of Attraction
Did you know that every thought that we think creates a vibration? Negative thoughts create negative feelings that lead to low frequency vibrations, whereas positive thoughts create positive feelings that produce high frequency vibrations. According to the universal Law of Attraction, "vibes" attract like "vibes". Have you ever noticed how, when you're feeling down and depressed, you attract situations that are in line with your state of mind? So logically,3352 Ugg Bailey Button Mini Grey Boots, the key to attracting only the things that you desire into your life, is to vibrate positive energy. Okay, that sounds simple enough...but how do you DO that?
"If you want your life to be more rewarding, you have to change the way you think." - Oprah
We spend far too much time worrying -- about the future, about paying the bills, about upcoming exams, about our health, about getting that promotion. What we're actually doing when we worry about any situation, is concentrating all our energy on something that we don't want. Hate, worry, fear, jealousy, anger, sadness are all emotions that make us vibrate negatively. By focusing on unwanted situations we are actually attracting the exact situations that we want to avoid! We would be doing ourselves a favor by focusing only what we DO want, instead of wasting time and energy on the things that we DON'T want.
Opposites Do Not Attract
Obviously, no one can feel good all day long, every day. The key is to do the things that make you feel good as often as you can. Play uplifting music while you drive to work, avoid the television programs that produce negative feelings, don't read the newspaper if the content affects you negatively, interact only with positive-minded people... just let go and have fun! Learn to monitor your thoughts...if you notice yourself thinking a negative thought, immediately negate its effect by focusing on something that makes you feel good. Remember, there is nothing more important than feeling good! Keep a photo of your kids or pet or favorite actor nearby to help you make that switch. Be grateful for the things that are going well in your life,Q. What's the problem with getting enough exercise. Do whatever it takes to generate that upbeat feeling, because opposites do not attract,Involved in too much fighting...but like certainly will attract like. The Law of Attraction is on the mark each time and it does not make mistakes!
"Whatever the mind of man can conceive and believe it can achieve." - Napoleon Hill
In order to get what you desire in life, you have to give those desires regular attention,two back. Fantasize, dream, imagine, focus... for what you create in your mind, you create in reality. If it's a specific car that you want, order a brochure of it and look through it every day. Think about what color you want and which accessories and options your model has. If it's a fantasy vacation in the Maldives or the Caribbean, compile your own colorful screensaver, fantasize about those white beaches and crystal clear waters abundant with tropical fish. Paste pictures of your dream home or that sleek yacht that you desire on a board and look at it often. Be excited about it! Focus wholeheartedly and with certainty on what you want, and do so in this moment. Believe that you have what you desire now, today, in this present moment. Focus on how good that makes you feel, and try to generate that feeling as often as you can.
Don't confuse the Law of Attraction by being inconsistent in your desires. Don't keep changing your mind, otherwise there's no way for what you ask for to find its way to you. Be consistent, be determined...but leave the "how" out of it. If you decide the method and schedule by which your desires will come to you, you're limiting your possibilities to only what you can think of. After all, what if there's something better out there than what you can imagine? Just trust that it is happening now and allow it to come to you. Follow where your intuition leads you. Don't worry about it, don't look for proof, don't start doubting.
Affirmations are a form of advertising
If you do find that doubts and negative self-talk are getting in your way, you can apply positive affirmations. When used consistently, affirmations will do away with your limiting beliefs and replace them with thoughts that will help you achieve what you desire. Does advertising work? Sure it does - there's a multibillion dollar industry that proves it and affirmations are a form of advertising with only you as the target audience. Affirmations must be stated in the "I" form, in the present tense and always positively. They should also invoke a positive emotion. For instance: "I deserve large sums of money that allow me to have more fun with my family", "I choose to effortlessly earn $100,000 per year", "I enjoy working out regularly and maintaining a trim and slim body that turns heads", "I choose to attract only healthy and positive people into my life who help me achieve my goals"; "I choose to create a positive, healthy and joyful lifestyle for myself". You can write them down everyday, or use them as a screensaver, or buy special affirmation or goal setting software that you can use on your computer.
If you're skeptical about how the Law of Attraction can affect you, just try being happy and positive for a month. It will amaze you how easy it is to get things going your way in that short period of time. A lot can be achieved in relatively little time -- why waste any of it by being negative? Get out there and manifest what you want!

there is life and peace. And that life is given to us by the Word of God

Katrina Victims
The initial disaster is over,where working alone as its downfall.. But chaos remains. Many lives were lost. Perhaps you lost loved ones or still don't know whether they are still alive.
Everything was destroyed—your housing, clothes, all your valued possessions, automobiles, jobs, your friends are scattered, and most importantly your dreams were shattered.
Emotions are running wild inside you and everyone around you. Questions go unanswered. Not only about what happened, but where do you go from here?
Can you rebuild your old life? Unfortunately, no. Can you build a new life? Yes,3352 Ugg Bailey Button Mini Grey Boots! Will it be easy? No. Will it be worth it? Yes!
Where do you find the strength to move forward? God will give you strength in your time of need. You have a lot of major decisions to sort through in the next few months and God will give you discernment on what to do.
When you feel like everyone has failed you, you can always turn to God for help.
"I'm sticking with GOD (I say it over and over). He's all I've got left. GOD proves to be good to the man who passionately waits, to the woman who diligently seeks. It's a good thing to quietly hope, quietly hope for help from GOD." Lamentations 3:24-26 (The Message)
During this time of unrest you may find yourself putting your hope into various things—the government, people who have reached out to help you or your own abilities. But the solid, unchangeable hope of God is what will sustain you in the long haul.
The mind-set of instant change and instant gratification that is so prominent in Americans must be discarded to avoid needless stress and anxiety in the months ahead. Change will come, but probably not at the fast pace you desire.
So how do you remain patient during this time? By realizing that just as it took you so many years to get to where you were before the disaster hit, it will take time to build your new life. A better life.
Knowing a couple of things ahead of time will help you through this process of building your life. First, there is grief to deal with. Grief over the loss of loved ones, over the loss of your possessions, your job, your status in life, over the separation from friends and familiar surroundings, and even your place of worship.
However, grief does not have to consume you,and the see how easy it is to let go. Yes, it will take time to go through the grieving process, but it does not have to ruin your life to the point that you cannot function at a normal level.
Second, reaching out and loving others will help you build your life quicker. It will help you be able to handle everything you are dealing with. Love never fails to provide an answer to what you are going through (1 Corinthians 13:8). When you find yourself arguing with someone over some stupid little thing, decide to stop the argument and begin showing love to that person or family. God always gives you His peace when you do this.
Third, your attitudes will carry you a long way. They will set you up for success or failure. This is discussed in more detail later in this book. But for right now, know that with God all things are possible! Nothing is too hard for Him.
Fourth, maintaining peace in your heart keeps problems from developing or getting worse,Obsessive Focus. God's peace is available to us:
"Peace I leave with you; My [own] peace I now give {and} bequeath to you. Not as the world gives do I give to you. Do not let your hearts be troubled, neither let them be afraid. [Stop allowing yourselves to be agitated and disturbed; and do not permit yourselves to be fearful and intimidated and cowardly and unsettled.]" John 14:27 (Amplified)
The Bible tells us that when the Holy Spirit (Who lives inside Christians) controls our mind, there is life and peace. And that life is given to us by the Word of God (the Bible). So if you find yourself seeking peace, begin reading the Bible. If you don't have one, ask for one or borrow one. You might begin with the Book of Psalms as it describes people in trials and their heartfelt cries to God and God's faithful response to them. God is the same yesterday, today and tomorrow. The comfort and guidance He provided His people throughout history He will also provide for you.
The outcome of the new life you build depends upon the choices you make right now. You can either become bitter or better. God's ways are always to forgive, restore relation-ships, and move on with your life. If you are surrounded by people who only see the negative and continue to stir up strife, it is best to withdraw from their company.
Many will question whether this catastrophe was brought on by God. In this Age God acts out of love, not judgment. I can tell you with complete confidence that God loves you. He knows the hurt and heartache you are going through. He wants to comfort you, to guide you, to help you build a better life.
God created you for a specific purpose. You have a mission in life. God wants to reveal His vision for your life and help you accomplish it. This is discussed later on in this book. Right now He wants to give you hope for a better life. A life filled with His love, peace, and purpose. Remember, nothing is impossible for God.

but it can help you to assess whether or not you should consider taking a home

Online Pregnancy Test
You can find just about anything on the internet these days. Even an online
pregnancy test! Ok, so the test isn't based on scientific analysis of your blood or
urine, but it can help you to assess whether or not you should consider taking a home
pregnancy test.
Not all online pregnancy tests are alike. Many of them give you a list of possible
symptoms and allow you to decide if you have any of these. Then using the date of
your last period as a guide marker, the site hosting the online pregnancy test will give
you a possible due date for your baby if you are indeed pregnant,if you want a softer line.. It doesn't give any
information on the likelihood of this, instead it leaves it up to you to decide.
Other online pregnancy tests are a little more complicated. Using a series of tick
boxes, they ask you a list of questions that cover the date of your last period, your
sexual activity around that time, your age,conscientiousness, general health issues such as stress and
physical condition, which symptoms (from the list) that you are experiencing and
what, if any, form of birth control you use.
The site then analyses your results and although it can't give a true result, the online
pregnancy test will tell you if they think it's likely that you need to take a pregnancy
test. Of course, neither of these approaches are going to put your mind at rest. Most
women if they suspect will need to take the home pregnancy test anyway, just to make
sure one way or the other.
Whether or not you are pregnant is not the only online pregnancy test available. Once
pregnant, there are a number of other fun online pregnancy tests which will analyse
the answers to the questions they ask and tell you whether or not you are going to
have a baby boy or baby girl. How accurate these are is mixed - often the site will tell
you their success rate,"We're a perfect fit,3352 Ugg Bailey Button Mini Grey Boots, or have a forum to discuss it.
Although the online pregnancy test is unable to give you definite answers, it's a
starting point if you suddenly realize that there's a possible connection between a
number of seemingly unrelated symptoms - and the best thing is that like any
information on the internet - you get fast results!

What is Evil Eye

What is Evil Eye?
The Evil Eye has been around since the beginning of time. It simply means sending someone a thought that seems intrusive or invasive or has the power to hurt him or her. The bad fortune that results is considered to have been caused by envy. The evil eye is not necessarily considered to be intentional or associated with witchcraft or sorcery. Oddly enough, this thought form could actually be complimentary in nature. The origins of the Evil Eye are Middle-Eastern and Mediterranean. The concept was introduced into the Americas, South Pacific Islands, Asia, Africa and Australia by European explorers.
Sending someone the evil eye comes from the concept that we all have a Third Eye, located in the center of our forehead. Blinding, fogging or obscuring the third eye is often the intent of the energy's sender. Most of us have experienced the weird power of the phenomenon. All it takes is a gaze that seems to be unfriendly, indifferent or blank and seems to a couple of seconds too long. We think about it for a few minutes afterwards or perhaps an image of the person staring at us preoccupies our thoughts occasionally for the rest of the day. Perhaps that is why the British and Scottish term for the evil eye is overlooking. It implies that a gaze has remained too long upon the coveted object, person or animal.
The evil eye is also known as the envious or invidious eye. In Italian it is called the malocchio and in Spanish the malojo (loosely translated as the bad eye) The evil eye is known as ayin horeh in Hebrew; ayin harsha in Arabic, droch shuil in Scotland, mauvais oeil in France, bösen Blick in Germany, and was known as oculus malus among the classical Romans.
The original belief is that any person can harm your children, livestock, fruit trees or any other evidence of prosperity just by looking at the spoils of all your good will and hard work with envy. Ironically, the curse of the evil eye is thought to be provoked by inappropriate displays of spiritual pride or excessive beauty. There is a theory that very famous people and celebrities suffer more personal misfortune than others simply because they are subjected to more overlooking and envy than others.
This superstition might have some grounding in evolutionary psychology as usually one animal is thought to dominate or be aggressive to another simply by staring at it for too long. Psychologically speaking, staring or glaring at someone is officially considered an intrusion into your affairs. Apparently, there is a fine line between casting a glance to casting a spell. In these post Celestine Prophecy times, this kind of stare could be compared to a kind of etheric laser beam or amoebic arm that rips open your aura. Others would describe the infliction of the evil eye as the projection of an image (such as the image of the person you have offended or hurt) so that you see only that to the exclusion of all other sight. In other words, you see that person wherever you go or feel that your life's events are always colored by your dealing with that person. Another symptom is the inability to proceed with ordinary, daily events without feeling somehow compelled to make things ri!
ght with the person you have often unknowingly offended with your grandiosity.
It is common folklore that the evil eye has a dehydrating effect on its victim. It is thought to cause vomiting, diarrhea, the drying up of the milk of nursing mothers and livestock, problems with the blood, eyesight lack of rain, the drying up of wells, the withering of fruit and impotence in men. Clumsiness, stomachaches, dry coughs, diarrhea, itching, hair loss, dry skin are all thought to be physical symptoms of an evil eye attack e. On the astral level it is thought to cause the drying up of prana, chi, life force and the easy flow of prosperity in life. Part of this image might derive from the idea also, of muddy, murky or poisoned vision that is somehow attached to the victim's third eye.
Almost everywhere that the evil eye belief exists, it is said to be caused accidentally by envy or praise. Thus the phrase Pride Goeth Before a Fall In certain Mediterranean and eastern cultures, one is careful not to praise a child too much, lest it invite the subconscious balancing effect of the evil eye. A classic situation would be the barren woman who praises the newborn baby of a new child. Such praise would be considered inappropriate and thought to bring the evil child. One of the remedies for this would be for the mother to spit, to symbolically rehydrate the situation. Also, she may speak ill of the child OT counteract the effects of the praise, which might have malefic effects on the child later.
The belief that individuals have the power to cast the evil eye on purpose is more idiosyncratic to Sicily and Southern Italy,3352 Ugg Bailey Button Mini Grey Boots, although the belief has certainly spread elsewhere to the Southern United States and the Latin Americas. Such people are known as jettatore (projectors). They are not necessarily considered evil or envious, just born with an unfortunate embarrassing talent that causes others to avoid them. In ancient cultures, if you were thought to be the possessor of an evil eye, you were often negated by the rest of society and went unrecognized on the street without meeting anyone's eyes.
Perhaps one of the most familiar preventative measures against the evil eye is the hand gesture. The Mano Cornufo or Horned Hand involves extending the first and index fingers from a fist. The Mano Fico or Fig hand involves placing the thumb in between first and second fingers.
Historically there have been many cures for the evil eye:
In Italy, the evil eye is diagnosed by dripping olive oil into a vessel filled with water. If the oil conglomerates into the shape of an eye than the victim is considered officially cursed. Prayers are recited until the droplets of oil no longer create an eye shape.
In Eastern Europe charcoal, coal or burnt match heads are dropped into a pan of water/. If the items float then the person is considered to be the victim of a curse.
In the Ukraine, a form of ceromancy or candle reading is used to diagnose the curse. Melted wax is dripped from a candle into a pan of water. If the wax spits, splatters, or sticks to the side of the bowl then the patient is considered to be under the influence of the malefic eye. Usually the patient is cleansed with Holy Water. He or she is pronounced cured when the dripped wax sinks the bottom of the bowl in a round ball.
In Greece Mexico and other places, the official cure is to invite the culprit responsible for the evil eye to spit in a vessel of the holy water that is consumed by the victim.
In Mexico, rolling a raw egg over the body of the victim is the antidote. Afterwards, it is cracked open and if the metaphysician or healer divines the shape of an eye in the yolks then the person is considered to be cursed. Several eggs may be repeatedly rolled over the person's body until an egg without an eye if found. Sometimes the egg is placed underneath the person's bed overnight and cracked open in the morning.
In China the remedy for the evil eye is the Pa Kua mirror, a six-sided mirror that is hung on the front door or placed in the front window to reverse bad energy back to the sender. Some of these mirrors are convex to reflect back the bad poison darts or arrows of multiple ill wishers and some are concave to reflect energy in a definite direction back at, for instance, a nosy neighbor, whose gaze may have lingered on your garden of tulips for too long. In Feng Shui, mirrors are often used as a cure all to reflect negative energy back at all kinds of things people, bad architecture, traffic, neighbors, physical obstructions such as trees or rocks or anything else that might considered to be a conductor of Har Shui (negative vibrations).
In India the mirroring back of the evil eye takes the form of small mirrors that are sewn, braided or crocheted into clothing. This mirroring back of bad energy is also familiar to practitioners of Wicca and Lukumi or Santeria. In India, the human eye is also considered to be a mirror of the soul. Indian women wear kohl or heavy black makeup to emphasize their eyes not only to shield themselves from evil eye but also to prevent themselves from accidentally inflicting it on others. In India cords strung with blue beads are placed on newborn babies. When the cord breaks and the beads are lost the child is considered to have a strong enough aura to protect him or herself from the evil eye. Red cords worn upon the wrist or neck are thought to have a powerful effect against ocular malevolence. A silver charm called Eye of Buddha which references the Gautama Buddha is also worn against astral attack.
In Italy, gold, silver or gems carved or cast into the shape of the Mano Fica or Mano Cornufa are used to repel the evil. The most coveted ones are made of red coral, but many versions exist today made of gemstones and plastic. They are worn by men to protect against the withering of the genitals thought to be caused by the bad eye. Also Italian in origin is the Corno or horn or devil's horn amulet that is thought to protect against the same dysfunction. The women's version is made from a twig of red coral.
In Arab cultures, superstitious types wear an eye in the form of a stone cast in the center of a hand shaped bone or metal charm A common Egyptian charm is the Buckle of Isis which represents the menstrual pad of the Goddess Isis who was the Mother of all living things. Stuffing a little prayer or spell inside a locket that is hung around the neck is the common European custom for protecting oneself against deadly gazes.
A light worker such as myself might advise you to protect yourself in the following contemporary ways:
Always maintain the belief that nobody has the power to hurt you with a look. This in itself is a very powerful thought form.
Before you go out, imagine that your third eye is actually covered by something that looks like a small pocket mirror. If you are a psychic or a healer then simply close your third eye and don't open it unless you want to look.
If you are feeling haunted or upset as the result of a look, press your thumb hard into the center of your forehead and imagine your third eye quickly flipping. Flick the energy away with your thumb and snap your fingers.
Always remember that what you resist often persists. The phrase Oh, so what! is one of the most powerful chemicals in the universe that you can use to dissolve negative energy.

set to take place in 2006

Who is the World's Most Beautiful Woman?
There are several contenders at the moment including Angelina Jolie, Aishwarya Rai and many others have been given this title recently. But the question remains. A quick search on Google for 'world's most beautiful woman' returns over 20 million results. With numerous articles on the subject in which authors name their favorites, or cite poll results from such and such publication, all claiming to know the answer. It would seem that with so many sources claiming the title belongs to one woman or another we may never have a definitive answer.
For decades beauty pageants have been held in attempts to discover the world's most beautiful woman and put her in the public eye. The first ever Miss Universe was crowned in 1952, however pageant history stretches back to 1921 with the first ever Inter-City Beauty pageant held in Atlantic City, which would later be re-christened with the more familiar moniker of Miss America (not to be confused with Miss USA). Since then there have been countless beauty pageants crowning Miss this and Miss that. But in the last 30 years these pageants have become repetitive, stale and boring. Not to mention hard to get into. They have strict rules for eligibility that include age restrictions for the Miss Universe Organization you must be between the ages of 18 and 27. You cannot be married (or have children one would assume), you cannot currently or in the past have participated in previous Miss Universe Organization pageants; state, national or otherwise (ie Miss USA or state pageants). Not to mention the entry fees charged just to apply for entry. To get into Miss Universe you have to have won the Miss USA beauty pageant (or equivalent in another country), and you are not allowed to participate in any other beauty pageants while you are entered or while "holding the crown" if you win.
With most of these beauty pageants being held only once a year it is difficult for pageant fans to maintain interest in the "off season". Also consider that the pageant shows themselves remain the same year to year with very little variation or straying from the formula. The same competitions, questions and hosts, the only thing different is the women. Which of course is not a bad thing, however it is this repetitiveness that will be the undoing of beauty pageants as we know them today.
What would be the next logical step? What could someone do to evolve beauty pageants from what we are accustomed to and bring them into the 21st century? The answer is right in front of you, why not take the pageant online and make it available all year long? If you dig deep enough, or look in the right places you may find inklings that a person or two had this idea and there are a small handful of websites claiming to be online beauty pageants. Most of them seem more like afterthoughts or even a jest, but there is one that looks to be a diamond in the rough.
One of the most attractive looking sites on the web today, In Search of the World's Most Beautiful Woman® is a website that will breathe new life into the beauty pageant scene with a fresh take on glamour competitions. Entry to the contest is done exclusively online, costs nothing and is free from most of the eligibility restrictions that prevent a lot of beautiful women from entering. You must be over 18 and have a good digital photograph of yourself to enter. That's it! You can be in your thirties, married with children and still have a chance to participate in a world class beauty pageant. This contest will do away with the majority of stale 'traditions' that major beauty pageants still carry. The primary pageant is taking place online right now as you read this. There are over 50 beautiful Contestants from 14 different countries currently registered at In Search of the World's Most Beautiful Woman® with more Contestants entering all the time. Everyone is welcome to participate either by entering as a Contestant or by becoming a Judge and casting their votes for these stunning women.

There are also plans for a large scale television show and with such innovation in a proven industry; In Search of the World's Most Beautiful Woman® is certainly a name to watch out for.

#2 Assisted Reproductive Technology

Infertility Solution
Once a man or woman is unable to naturally contribute to the process of conception, he or she is said to be reproductively infertile. This condition affects both males and females all over the world. 7,3352 Ugg Bailey Button Mini Grey Boots.3 million women in the US alone suffer from infertility, this is according to the CDC (centers for disease control and prevention). While this is a condition that can cause a lot of emotional trauma, it is not without a solution and this article will discuss 3 infertility solutions that you can apply beginning right now
#1 Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection
It is highly unlikely that you can become pregnant without assistance if your spouse' sperms are too few. Intracytoplasmic sperm injection is a procedure that involves the injection of one sperm into an egg rather than the large number of sperms required in other procedures. After this is done, the fertilized embryo is re-inserted into your uterus thereby increasing your chances of getting pregnant. Additionally, you could opt for assisted reproductive technology (ART).
#2 Assisted Reproductive Technology (ART)
This is an all-encompassing term that refers to various procedures which assists you to achieve conception. All these procedures occur outside of your body and involves the mixing of your spouse' sperm with your eggs. Examples of these procedures include; IVF - In-vitro fertilization, Tubal embryo transfer, Gamete intra-fallopian transfer and so on. While these are fantastic methods to increase your chances of conceiving, you may still get an infertility solution through other methods like intrauterine insemination.
#3 Intrauterine Insemination
This procedure involves the placing of your spouse' sperm inside your uterus using a catheter. This procedure is mostly performed when the male is either mildly infertile or when there is mild endometriosis, cervical factor infertility, or other unexplained fertility.

Summer 2009's color is a far cry from the nudes of past seasons.

7 Steps to Naturally Pretty Makeup For a Summer Romance by Janice Tham
Summer 2009 makeup tends towards pretty colors. Gone are the boring nudes. What are they compared to this season's dramatic eyes and glorious bursts of color? Summer 2009's color is a far cry from the nudes of past seasons.
How do you wean yourself off nudes and add some pretty color to your face without looking like a clown? Too much color, done incorrectly, can look garish, not gorgeous.
Go for that naturally pretty look. A bright, radiant look befitting a bride. Or the high school cheer leader.
Wear pink!
There are several ways to wear makeup this season.
You can focus on the eyes with dramatic eyes in pretty colors, but with the rest of your face pale, or in neutral tones.
You can focus on the lips for a sexy pout, lots of lashes, but the rest of the face relatively bare.
Or you could go for a pretty pink on cheeks, eyes and lips for all over glow.
Pink bridges the gap between color and nudes. It gives you a believable rosy glow that is radiant and pretty. Yet it does not try to hide the fact that you are wearing some makeup, albiet light makeup.
Here's how you can get that pretty pink all over look in just 7 steps:
1. Start with great skin. Or at least, the illusion of great skin by applying foundation or tinted moisturizer to even your skin tone. Pick one that matches your skin exactly. Dot it onto your forehead, nose, cheeks and chin and blend in thoroughly with your finger tips for a dewy finish.
2. Take a large blusher brush and pick up a baby pink cheek color if you are fair, a medium rose if you have medium to dark skin or fuschia if you have ebony skin. Dust the blush on your cheeks. The dust the remaining blush on the brush lightly across your forehead, nose and chin for all over radiance.
3. Apply a pink eyeshadow on your entire eyelid with an eyeshadow blush. Pink a pink that is a shade brighter or darker than your blush.
4. With your eyeshadow brush, apply a lilac or mauve eyeshadow (violet if you have ebony skin) in the crease of the eyelid and the outer corner of your eyes.
5. Line the inner corners of the eyes with white shimmer eyeshadow. Dip a clean eyeliner brush in water, then run it over the eyeshadow and use that to paint the inner corners of your eyes.
6. Line the upper lash line and outer edge of the lower lash line with black khol. Apply 2 coats of black mascara,letting the first coat dry completely before putting on the second coat,3352 Ugg Bailey Button Mini Grey Boots. Remember to separate the lashes immediately after each coat of mascara by using a clean mascara wand.
7. Use a lip brush and paint baby pink lipstick on your lips if you are fair. If you have medium to dark skin, paint on a rose pink lipstick. If your skin is really dark, then use a fuschia lipstick. Dip the lipbrush into the lipstick and use the flat edge of the brush to line your lips. Pick up more color from the lipstick and paint in the rest of the lips.
That's it. You've got a pretty in pink look that is perfect for a summer romance.

Whenever I'm caught in a spiral of chaos or stress

From Chaos to Center
Are you in a constant state of motion?
Is it hard for you to sit still and do nothing for more than a few moments? If so, you're not alone. There is at least one other person like you me. And my guess is that most all working moms can understand what it's like to be in constant and perpetual motion, spinning about in a flurry of activity. It's uncomfortable to be still; you feel like you're not being productive. You always have hundreds of things you could be doing, so why would you waste time doing nothing?
Interestingly, stillness is a very effective way of living and it certainly isn't the act of doing nothing. On the other hand, getting caught up in the tension and distraction of ordinary activities causes you to burn up energy that results in getting nothing of real importance accomplished.
Integrated mothers live from their center and thrive from stillness.
When you feel trapped by an endless list of to-do's, I'm sure the last bit of advice you want to hear is, be still. You want instant relief from the pressure of life and often seek relief from doing more. Stillness can bring instant relief in the form of mental peace, inner stability and overall relaxation. These are all elements necessary for you to be more productive, effective and balanced.
When you live and work from a place of centered mindfulness you will experience a profound sense of balance and peace. You'll benefit from a mental clarity that allows you to get things done with less effort really. These elements are essential in balancing the intensity, stress and change in your busy life.
I'll be the first to admit how difficult it can be to sit peacefully and reconnect with your center. I tend to default to doing more when I feel overwhelmed or stressed. Nevertheless, I try to meditate for 15 minutes daily. I'm by no means a meditation expert but I am definitely an expert in trying. Usually I feel so distracted that I end up stopping and then go about completing a chore that's been bugging me (like unfolded clothes) or I'll fall asleep in the peacefulness of the quiet (because I'm usually pretty exhausted).
But every now and then I find my sweet spot where I am free to enjoy the quiet, peacefulness of my center. When I get there I've experienced amazing benefits:
-- Resiliency to change and adversity
-- Confidence and inner strength
-- Heightened insight and intuition
-- Better focus and concentration
-- Clearer thinking and decision making
-- Peace of mind and flow
Your center is a still point to which you can return to when the chaos of working motherhood sets in. It gives you clarity, calms your spirit and focuses your mind so you make better choices, regain control of your life and feel a stronger sense of balance.
Living from your center requires that you be fully present.
We often live in the remembrance of what once was, or the possibility of what might be. It's rare to fully experience the present moment.
Part of the problem is that you may believe the present is imperfect. When you are constantly analyzing the past or leaping into the future, it's difficult to see how perfect and wonderful the present really is. You may be thinking, But my life really does need improvement. And this is a common conundrum. When you are present you may begin to notice areas where things could be better, so you automatically think about what caused this (the past) and how to fix it (the future).
Here's the thing perfect doesn't mean preferred, desirable or fair. While the present may not be exactly what you want, or need it to be,3352 Ugg Bailey Button Mini Grey Boots, it's still perfect because it's all you have. You can't change the past; you can learn from it. You can't decide the future; you can do things to shape it. You can't escape the present; you can enjoy and savor it.
Practical Application
Whenever I'm caught in a spiral of chaos or stress, two techniques have allowed me to return to center and respond to the situation in a more proactive manner the belly breath and the body relaxation scan. These techniques are often found in the practice of yoga, tai chi, or meditation.
Belly Breathing is a simple method of relaxation that can be done anywhere, anytime.
1. Sit or stand with your hands on your stomach.
2. Inhale slowly through your nose, feeling your stomach expand.
3. Hold this breath for a few seconds.
4. Then exhale as slowly as possible through your nose.
5. Repeat steps 1 4 three or four times.
The Body Relaxation Scan is a calming relaxation technique that involves gently tightening your muscles and then releasing the tension in them. During the exercise you will move progressively around your body, for example, from head to toe or toe to head.
1. Choose a comfortable, quiet place where you can sit or lie on your back.
2. Focus your mind on a part of your body such as your foot.
3. While inhaling, tense the muscles in your foot and hold for 5 seconds; then slowly relax the foot as you exhale and let the stress flow from your body.
4. Continue this process as you move up the leg to the calf and thigh, over to the other foot and leg, and then to the buttocks, abdomen, each arm, shoulders, neck, face and scalp.
This process takes about 10-15 minutes to complete and will leave you feeling relaxed all over. If you're short on time, then break the exercise into several short segments. Even a small moment of relaxation counts.

flip flops are wonderful no matter what brand they are.

My Love Affair with Flip Flops by Morgan Hamilton
Flip flops are the greatest invention ever. At least, in my world they are. There is absolutely nothing more comfortable on my feet than flip flops. I'm not too picky with my flips flops,3352 Ugg Bailey Button Mini Grey Boots. I have every color imaginable and every material ever made. The canvas ones are my absolute favorite and I save the leather dressier ones for out in public. When I was a kid, the only kind of flip flops were the rubber kind that irritated your toes when you wore them. After you had permanent calluses on your toes, then they were comfortable. Finally, some people stepped outside of the box and invented flip flops that made your feet happy. Whoever the people were that finally took that creative step, I owe them a huge thank you. At the moment, I have two pairs of flip flops in my living room. My husband trips over them constantly and always grumbles about it.
Why do I love flip flops so much? Well, that's an easy question to answer. Not only are they easy to slip on and off, but they can allow you to show off whatever new color nail polish you put on your toes. You can get them wet and there's no harm done. Every brand name, generic or well-known, makes them. I have a pair of Sketchers flip flops that I absolutely adore. However, I have purchased some of the most adorable flip flops at Payless Shoes in my years. I could probably purchase 3 pairs of flip flops at Payless for the price of one pair of Sketchers. It just depends on what you're looking for and how much of an emphasis you place on where your shoes come from. To me, flip flops are wonderful no matter what brand they are.
My workplace has a fairly strict dress code. I've tried to test it a few times by wearing outfits or items that aren't acceptable. Technically, we are not supposed to wear flip flops for any reason. I sprained my ankle right after I started working for my company and it was incredibly uncomfortable to wear any type of shoes. My boss gave me permission to wear flip flops until the swelling was more bearable. As much as my ankle and foot were hurting me, I was a bit sad when I had to switch back to regular shoes.
Walk through any department store or shoe store and you'll see tons of sandals. You'll notice that flip flops come in every color and material - which you could easily view in my living room. They vary in price range and are a girl's best friend. Well, at least they're my best friend. Next to chocolate, that is.

breast pain or cysts. You should also learn the proper way for physical examination of your breast.

Signs of Breast Cancer by Charlene J Nuble
Detecting signs of breast cancer may be misleading. Some women think that having a lump on your breast or under your arm already means that you have one. Often there are no physical signs that you can see or feel. Some outside signs may include a lump or thickening of an area, or a dimple in the breast.
Redness and swelling of the breast or an enlargement in the axillary lymph nodes are less common signs. These said lumps may be just benign (non-cancerous).
If you are able to detect a lump, or if you may have worries that you have breast cancer, it is crucial that you see a doctor immediately. That is,3352 Ugg Bailey Button Mini Grey Boots, to ease your worries and for them to answer your questions. Certain signs may include: lumps in the breast or under arms, changes in the nipples, breast pain or cysts. You should also learn the proper way for physical examination of your breast.
A lump can be felt by physical examination by you or your doctor. This lump is said to be painless and hard. And sometimes, it may be soft, rounded and tender. A mammogram which is an x-ray for the breast would most likely see an abnormal area; and this area should undergo further testing.
According to the American Cancer Society, any of the subsequent abnormal changes in the breast can be signs of breast cancer:
• Breast pain
• Irritation or dimpling of the skin in your breast
• A part or all of the breast is swelling
• Pain in the nipples or your nipples may appear turning inward
• Thickening, scaliness or redness of the nipples or breast skin
• Painless lump under your arm (armpit)
• Or a discharge in your nipples other than breast milk
The said above signs of breast cancer may be a sign of less crucial conditions that are not cancerous, such as cyst, infection or just a discharge. It is best advised that if ever you experience certain breast changes, consult with a physician immediately.

she plopped down on the couch and announced

Should Women Fake It?
Learning how to establish a healthy sexual relationship.
(Black Leather Couch Tales)
As soon as Chelsea walked in, she plopped down on the couch and announced, I am so frustrated.
Hello Chelsea, I said.
Ignoring my greeting altogether, she continued, No really, Coach, I am.
A few months earlier, Chelsea, a successful, attractive and very fit thirty-something lawyer, had been involved in a serious quest for a good, long-term relationship. She was in my office explaining how hard it had been to find a man of similar goals and values given her busy lifestyle. I had encouraged her to try online dating. I pointed out that it would be an effective method of connecting with a large number of men that fit her criteria, in the shortest amount of time, with minimal effort.
Chelsea, please explain, I replied,this era was also known as the last golden age of the glove, taking to her cue to skip the formalities and get right to the point.
I really did it," she continued, "I changed my pattern, followed your steps, went online and approached my search with a new set of guidelines. I can tell you, it worked! I found the right guy.
And ?
Well, Ben is a wonderful man. He's everything I could have hoped for. We have fun together and can agree on just about everything. He's already my best friend. I even waited this time and didn't rush into sex.
She hesitated. I waited for her to continue,including Daughters.
That's where the problem comes up, Coach. I don't know what to do. Like I said,3352 Ugg Bailey Button Mini Grey Boots, I'm frustrated...the sex is not so good. It's terrible because everything else about our relationship is perfect. I can truly see us building a happy life together. Then, after a pensive pause, I'm thinking maybe I should just fake it. The sex should get better, right? Isn't it ok to fake it for now?
Chelsea is one of countless women who resort to faking it to fool their partners into believing they enjoy lovemaking when they actually do not. Why do so many women feel they have to pretend to enjoy sex instead of actually being able to enjoy it?
Some women simply don't have orgasms and they feel insecure about it. This is usually the result of growing up with a feeling of shame and guilt about sexuality. From a very young age, girls are sent pretty clear messages that discourage them from expressing and/or fully exploring this aspect of themselves. Consequently, many women have to learn that it is good to get in touch with their bodies on an intimate level and learn how to be turned on. Only then can true sexual enjoyment be experienced.
Men contribute to this problem with their own insecurity and lack of a basic understanding of how women function sexually. Since so many men measure their very degree of maleness by their sexual prowess, it has become well established that giving a woman an orgasm is a defining element in what we call manhood. The problem is that when a woman cares enough about a man to become intimate with him, she usually cares enough about his ego to feel incredible pressure to make him believe she thoroughly enjoys sex with him. Some woman experiencing the need to please a man's ego report faking orgasms just to end the incessant pounding.
Men should understand that every sexual encounter will not lead to her having an orgasm, and that it is ok. Not having an orgasm does not mean she did not find the experience pleasurable. Relieving her of this pressure will allow her to become more relaxed and more receptive, thus leading to more orgasms!
I know most men would never admit it publicly, but many could benefit from learning more about how to please women. It is probably a good idea to start by letting go of the notion that the only way a woman can be stimulated to a climax is by way of intercourse. In fact, only about 30% of women can experience orgasm with intercourse alone. That leaves a staggering majority of women who require other forms of stimulation.
I could go on in great detail about this particular issue because it is truly at the heart of so many of these problems. Chelsea's problems were rooted elsewhere.
Based on her own accounts, Chelsea placed too heavy an importance on creating the perfect relationship. She went on and on about what a perfect match she and Ben were. By wanting something so much can create fear and anxiety not allowing you to relax. Nonetheless, Chelsea's attention became so focused on how perfect their lovemaking should be, that her own natural ability to enjoy the exquisite pleasures of intimacy was severely hampered. To Chelsea, any problem that could taint this otherwise perfect relationship had to be squelched by a quick solution: Fake orgasms. Problem solved. Forgetting that a long-term relationship needs to be built on a solid foundation.
In his 1996 book, Contemporary Interpersonal Theory and Research, Donald Kiesler provided us with a behavior concordance model which explains the Interpersonal Reflex Principle. This basically states that much of our interpersonal behavior is designed to elicit predictable responses from those with whom we interact. These actions put into motion a cycle where one's behavior is constantly confirming, recognizing, validating and influencing the behavior of others. Sounds complicated but it is not. In essence we are training people what we like and don't like.
A dog, for example, repeats good behavior rewarded. However, if you reward a dog for unwanted behavior like begging at the table, the dog will repeat that behavior and always beg. To fake an orgasm is to confirm to your partner that what they were doing was good. This creates a positive feeling in your partner and they will do more of the same. Unlike the dog, training your partner to perform this trick will not leave you begging for more.
Trying to break the cycle will confuse your partner creating doubt. Your partner will lose confidence and never know when to trust you, is he pleasing you or not? When this happens sex will only get worse and the relationship strained.
To answer the question should women fake it? No! Never fake it.
Problems, as much as we would like them to, do not just go away. The longer you go without confronting and handling them, the bigger they become. Sexual dissatisfaction is one of the leading causes of couples splitting up. The number one reason for sexual dissatisfaction is lack of communication. Forgoing communication and opting to simply fake it will only widen the gap between you two and ultimately ruin the relationship.
It is vital that you develop a level of communication with your partner that allows for frank and honest about sex talk. But, how do you tell your partner what turns you on? First set the ground rules between yourselves that sex talk is healthy, fun and in no way to be taken in an offensive manner, then:
Talk during sex. Don't be afraid of hurting your partner's ego by taking the time to teach them what brings you the most pleasure. Men in particular are very eager and happy students in this area. Just relax. It is ok to ask, Do you like this? or How does this feel? By all means, if you are asked such questions, be honest with your answers: Yes, that feels good. or, I liked it when you did this instead and, It really turns me on when you do this. Never ask after sex, Was it good? I can tell you that no one likes to be asked this question. File it under the same category as Do I look fat in this?
Talk about sex when you are not having sex. Ask questions and keep learning more about each other. Tell each other your fantasies and be willing to explore them, within reason. Opening and maintaining these communication lines will make you both more comfortable about the subject. Talking can also serve to build excitement as prolonged foreplay.
Buy books and explore together. Here is another peculiar aspect. We want sex, think about sex and are bombarded with it all over television, movies and advertisements. Oddly, very few of us study anything about it. A man will invest an exorbitant amount of time learning the parts of an engine or memorizing sports stats, but spends zero time learning about the female orgasm. Both women and men should take every opportunity to become students of sex together. Not only is it very sexy to learn together, you will both benefit from it greatly in the long run.
If you are in a relationship, starting a new one, or looking to get into one, learn that ultimately communication is the key to building a healthy and enjoyable sex life together. Let us do away with this notion that it is somehow wrong or shameful to talk openly about sex or that you can offend each other. I find it interesting that couples can be intimate with each other, yet feel uncomfortable discussing the intimacy. So, talk, learn, teach and, most importantly, have fun,Bridal Shower Tips by Yolanda Nash!

Warm weather is here

Six Tips For Long Lasting Summer Nail Polish by Sally Hart
Warm weather is here, and that means most of us will be wearing nail polish more often to show off our hands and feet. The barer summer clothes and sandals mean your feet and hands will be center stage, so putting a few extra minutes into proper nail care is must for the prettiest looks. Whether you are applying nail polish to your hands or toes, the basic principles to make your manicure or pedicure last are the same.
1. Prepare your nails properly before polishing. Nail polish won't adhere well to nails that are dirty or oily. Wash your hands thoroughly to remove any lotions, dirt or oils, and then brush each nail with a bit of nail polish remover. This will remove all oils from the nail itself and prepare it for accepting polish.
2. Lightly buff your nails and file off any rough edges. Polish will be more prone to peeling and flaking if the nails are rough around the edges or have ridges in them,3352 Ugg Bailey Button Mini Grey Boots. Filing and buffing gives a smoother surface so that polish won't flake.
3. Choose the right polish. Did you know that nail polish expires? Most brands will only last about a year before they become thicker and start to clump. Polish that's too thick will go on thicker and won't dry well, leading to more chance of smearing or smudging. Most nail polish formulas are similar and will last almost a week, but fast drying formulas are an exception. The extra ingredients that allow fast drying polishes to set so quickly also makes them peel more quickly, so try to avoid fast-dry formulas unless you absolutely have to use them. The extra few minutes spent drying a standard nail polish will be well worth it if your manicure lasts days longer.
4. Care for your polish properly. Summer weather is especially tough on nail polish the high temperatures can cause polish to separate and the color to change. To keep your nail polish in top condition, refrigerate it in the summer. You should also clean the polish bottle carefully after each use by wiping the outside edge of the bottle with a cotton ball soaked in nail polish remover to keep the bottle from sticking shut. Finally, be sure that you gently blend the nail polish before applying by rolling the bottle between your hands. Shaking a bottle of polish will create air bubbles in the polish that can cause bumps and clumps when you apply it guaranteed to shorten the life span of your manicure or pedicure.
5. Use a base coat and top coat,improve a clumsy and ungainly figure. It takes a bit more time to do a complete manicure rather than just throwing on some polish, but its well worth the effort. After your nails are clean, be sure to apply a base coat,silver and platinum. Also it has a kind of matte finish which most people really like.; this product prepares the nail for polish and gives nail polish something to cling to so that it lasts longer. Follow this with two thin coats of polish in the desired color, and then finish off with a quality top coat. When you apply the top coat, be sure to run the brush horizontally across the tip of the nail with a bit of it going under the edge of the nail. This will help prevent peeling and seals the manicure properly.
6. Don't rush things. Be sure to let your nails dry five to ten minutes between each coat. If the coat below isn't completely dry before you add the next one, your nails won't dry properly for quite a while, leading to chips and smudges. If you are in a rush or simply impatient, plunge your nails into ice water for a few seconds between coats this will quickly dry and seal the polish.
Enjoy your beautifully painted, long lasting nails,when the total outcome or atmosphere of dating solely depends on the man! Remember not to open soda cans or pick at envelopes with your freshly painted nails. Using your nails as tools won't help you keep your nail polish fresh at all!
