Aging Gracefully - Giving Up Things As You Grow Older
By Jerry Elrod
Scaling back is a necessary and important task facing seniors as they grow older. It is just not possible to keep everything accumulated by the aging population. There comes the time for sorting. A lot of “things” are easy to toss. Some, with sentimental value, are more difficult. So, one needs to start not so much with a strategy, that comes later, but a philosophy.

That philosophy may sound like this: Have I squeezed all the use, joy, satisfaction out of the item under consideration; does anyone in family or acquaintance have any attachment to it; will I regret having discarded it in a month or a year? Having worked out these considerations, it is time to move to strategy.

Much easier than philosophy, strategy simply requires logic and reasoning. Of course, if these are new behaviors for you, then strategy will also be a struggle. Some of the issues involved in strategy involve, time, long term expectations, assumption of responsibility, consideration of others who will be left with the task, eventually, if you don’t act.

As for time, it will take a commitment to the discipline of time to be serious about this undertaking. How long will I give myself to this; how much pondering will I allow myself over what I want to keep and toss; when I have chosen, where will I put it so it doesn’t tempt reconsideration?

One’s long term expectations are also critical in this exercise. If you are living in a large, commodious house with tons of storage, there may be a family agreement to just pass it on as is. If you expect to move, however, at some foreseeable time in the future, then the matter shifts into needing to evaluate the consequences.

Assumption of responsibility is another of the more critical influences to be taken into consideration. Leaving the load for someone else to carry may be an escape route, but it is not one that allows for mutual discussion and problem solving for everyone involved in the outcome. Bringing other members of the family into the process will be a means for being sure that a referee will be present as choices are made; that everyone will have a chance to choose what is really important for them to have and keep; for no one to have a piece of etrocia (e trosh ia) thrust upon them they never really liked; and to have help in the sorting through process, thus reducing the load for everyone. One other thing, for the things you have decided to keep, eliminate them from the inventory. However, it may be a good time to make a list of preferences which can be exercised when the time comes.

All of this assumes your willingness to be up front about mortality. For all of us, it isn’t an if, it is a when!

One of the things absolutely required to be given up is the fantasy of living forever. Your things may have a longer physical life span than you, but memories of you will be manifest in “the things” as those who hold them will readily and happily discover.

The US Economy and It’s Affect on Domain Names
By Brian Krassenstein
As you are all likely aware the US economy is in a major slowdown, if not a recession officially? Bank failures, Government bailouts, and talk of another Great depression has caused stocks to plummet, interest rates to fall, and spending to dry up. Being a domainer myself, I have found that this is the perfect time to pick up those valuable domain names at deep discounts. Whether you are looking to shop for 3 letter dot com domains, or generic word domains, the next several months promise to be prime time for buyers. It is a buyers market for the first time in the domain industry since I have been investing. If you have the cash available, you might as well invest it wisely in what seems to the be future of business, domain names.

Rather then allowing your money to sit in the bank making 1-3% annually in interest, while inflation is over 4%, or investing your money in what is currently the most volatile stock market since the mid 1980’s, put your money to work for you by purchasing traffic domains which will earn you daily interest via parking revenue, while also appreciating in value greatly, especially after we come out of this current economic disaster we are in. Here are 2 things to look for while investing in the current domain name market.

#1 Untrademarked typo’s with traffic

Look for domains which are getting type in typo traffic. For example, domains with the word recession spelled recession (with 1 “s”). or anything that’s getting traffic currently. These domains can be picked up dirt cheap compared to the yearly earnings you may be making in a Bank CD.

#2 Three and Four Letter dot com domains

Without a doubt these short domain names are the future. There are only about 17,000 3-letter dot coms in existence, and over 50% of these are developed websites. The great thing about short dot com domains is that as people register the dot orgs, dot nets, and dot whatever other extensions their are of those letters, you will benefit from their traffic. Also note that even 3 and 4 letter dot coms with bad letters such as “z”, “x”, “q” can be goldmines 5 years down the road. China and India will have huge markets for these 3 and 4 letter domains.

In conclusion I would recommend that if you have extra cash sitting around, then jump into the domain marketplace.

Your Relationship After Having a Child
By Lara Lee
Many men and women worry about how the child would effect their relationship, of course everybody has uncertainties. A new human being coming in your life, can change a lot.

But do not panic, the new baby will only bring a reason for you to get more closer to your partner. He or she will be a lifelong icon of your love.

Here are a few reasons why you will get closer to your partner after having a child. Once you hold the baby you will both be hugging him or her together, the cuddles along with the baby. All those pictures being taken, will be releasing oxytocin which is a love hormone. Whenever you hug or cuddle you feel relaxed and closer to your partner. Just because you are not having sex does not mean you can not feel closer to each other.

Indulge in other type of activities such as massages, or baths. You should lye down with your partner in his lap once the baby is asleep.
Do not be embarrassed over your body, after the child’s birth. your nipples might be swollen or you might have gotten, some stretch marks after the birth. But your partner has seen you giving birth, and knows it is not easy to become a mother. So do not lose confidence, and remember you are beautiful.

With a baby on board you will also get in touch with your childhood days. Not only will you and your partner plan activities with the baby, you might talk about older days. You will have talks about who he or she looks like. You might sit down and discuss what you want for your baby. All these talks are important to strengthen your relationship. Giving birth is a difficult period for a woman. It is always important to make the most of your time together and do not panic, this new child will bring warmth, blessings and harmony in your household.

First it was just you and your partner, now you will be a family. You will have discussions about who will go the doctor, when to go grocery shopping for the baby. Both of you will be involved in raising the child. Whenever you will have time for each other you will cherish that time.

YES! You can bring back your love! No matter how stubborn the resistance, no matter how far this person may be from you, no matter how hopeless or difficult your situation appears! Click here for the magic Strategy.

How Do You Find a Gentle Dentist?
By Amy Nutt
It is important to many individuals to have a gentle dentist, especially when a sensitive mouth is involved. Then there is that strange fear of the dentist because the mouth is a sensitive place. The mouth is so sensitive that sometimes activities such as flossing can make the gums bleed or inflict pain. We are more comfortable with having control over our toothbrushes rather than having someone else place strange objects into our mouths. However, the key to good oral hygiene is seeing a dentist twice per year.

But is it possible to have a gentle dentist? Of course it is. It is important for you to set aside past experiences and be proactive in finding a dentist who is going to have your best interest at heart. That isn’t saying that past dentists haven’t had your best interest at heart. That’s just saying that some dentists are gentler than others and you are one of those seeking out the more gentle ones.

What to do

The first thing you want to do is ask around. You have friends who go to the dentist regularly and you want to see what they have to say about their own dentists. Chances are they have been to a dentist in the past that was not so gentle, so they’re going to tell you about it. If they like their current dentist, then they’re going to tell you about that too. So be sure to listen to what others have to say about dentists they have visited. If you have to, make notes about which ones to stay away from and which ones are considered gentle. You can then compare what everyone has to say and make a decision after that.

After you have made a decision regarding which dentist to see, schedule an appointment for a simple cleaning. You can tell if a dentist is a gentle dentist just by how the cleaning is done. If they seem in a hurry and you’re feeling pain, then you know that the dentist is not gentle and that you never want to embark on that particular journey again. You then you know that you need to try another dentist in six months. You can keep doing this until you find one to be your regular dentists. If you find that you have cavities that need filled or need another dental procedure, it may be a good idea to seek out another dentist if the one you tried was not so gentle. This may cost you a little more money, but you need to make an appointment with another dentist and consult with them. They will look at your teeth to see what is going on. This is also a way in which you can tell how gentle they are. You can also ask questions such as:

- Do you do the procedure yourself or does someone do it for you?
- Do you apply a numbing gel to the area in which Novocain shots will be administered?

If someone other than the dentist is doing the procedure, then that is a red flag because you don’t know that person. The second question is also important because a gentle dentist will ensure that you will feel as little as possible.

It pays off

Embarking on a search for a gentle dentist is going to pay off because you’re going to be able to have dental work done with minimal pain. No one wants to have a procedure done and then feel it for two weeks. A gentle dentist is going to make sure that you are as comfortable as possible, which is what a dentist should do.

My old Granddaddy had his own take on gentle dentist his system was while sitting back in the dental chair and the dentist is looking into your mouth you grab him in the crutch and squeeze and look him straight in the eye and say,”We ain’t gona hurt each other are we Doctor”?

Sorry about that little ditty i wouldn’t recommend it today ! ….Robbie

This is an interesting take on an old problem i thought i would share it around you might be as shocked as i was,i would never do it, but i guess some would?

Get Your Ex Back by Sleeping With Someone They Know
By Tristan Lee
So what if you were a little needy, dependent, and reliant on your girlfriend or boyfriend. That doesn’t mean that they needed to break up with you. Show them that you’re not so needy and that you are capable of living life without them. Ironically, this will help you get your ex back.

Before anything, make sure you can get a hold of yourself… I can’t go over there and start shaking you. Stop crying and stop thinking about your ex. This will not work if you have any doubt in yourself, are insecure, and always thinking about them. Stay positive and do not allow negative thoughts (memories, images of your ex, etc) to enter your head. You’re on a mission here, not only to get your ex back, but to make you into a stronger person.

First, get your cell phone out. Write down all the numbers of your ex’s friends from the opposite sex that both of you guys knew. You’re obviously in a lot of distress, so call them and ask them if you can pour out your feelings towards them, since you can’t really pour your feelings towards your ex. Invite them over to your place.

The second thing you need to do is talk to them about that happened between you and your girlfriend or boyfriend. Friends “love” hearing gossip and details, so go in-depth and try to add emotional tidbits.

For example, start off slow and be nice to them… If they are there with you, they “want” to hear your story. Again, start slow and say something like, “I really did my best to keep this relationship alive but I guess it just didn’t work out…” Then start to add details about them. Tell them how you missed the way their soft hair feels and how they had that cute, quirky smile that always made you laugh. Your tone of voice shouldn’t be depressing or whiny, it should be nostalgic and uplifting. Look in their eyes as you are saying this to them.

Spend at least an hour talking to them and make sure you are always raising the bar each time… You want to have as much good rapport with your ex’s friend and make them feel an emotional connection to you by starting from casual conversation, to playful flirting, to deeper, more intimate conversation about what you guys have in common or secret stories that you haven’t revealed to anyone.

Watch for their signals. If they seem to be responding in an “I don’t mind being taken advantaged” type way, tell them how much they remind you of your ex and start complimenting on their physical and inner qualities.

When things start to heat up between you two, tell them that you want to show them something in your room. Take them by the hand and lead them to your bedroom. Continue to develop deep conversation until there is a silent moment where both of you guys are looking at each other. If they don’t look away, slowly graze your fingers on the side of their face, lean in, and gently kiss them on the lips as if it was the most delicate thing on earth. From here, you should have no problem continuing a steamy, sexual adventure and be on the way to getting your ex jealous, creating an emotion that will draw them back to you.

Obviously, these tactics are hurtful, emotionally damaging, and will cause a lot of “drama.” If you’re looking for a more ethical and positive way to get your ex back that doesn’t involve sleeping with another person or getting your ex jealous, visit http://www.expotions.com.
