If you’ve been doing any research into dieting and diet supplements you have probably come across Phentramin. Like all diet pills, Phentramin has a chemical effect on your body. That’s how it works- physical activity has a physical affect on your body by raising your heart rate and burning calories.

But how can a pill like Phentramin help promote weight loss? Well, I can tell you 5 ways that Phentramin does it.

Appetite Suppression. Phentramin “tricks” your body into thinking it’s not hungry. Your body sends out hunger signals for two reasons: you’re either genuinely hungry or your body is used to eating around that time.

Obviously, you should only eat when you’re actually hungry. Phentramin tones down the hunger signals to promote a healthier amount of consumption. Since you’re hungry less, you’ll eat less. Because you’re eating less you’re consuming fewer calories.

Metabolic Stimulation. Phentramin kicks your metabolism into high gear. This means that you’re burning more calories, even if you’re not doing anything physical. This has obvious benefits, as if you normally burn 2,000 calories a day and suddenly start burning 2,600 calories per day it means that you will have less calories in your body as excess.

Sugar Regulation. Phentramin regulates your blood sugar level. Sugar is, essentially, energy. Unless you use this energy it will eventually be converted into fat. Phentramin helps by controlling how much sugar is released into the blood stream and, as a result, how much sugar is left to be converted into fat.

Increased Energy Levels. Phentramin helps your body get the most from its caloric intake- you’ll feel more energized, motivated, and active. You’ll be able to push more during your workouts and have a shorter recovery time.

Phentramin does this by helping your body create and consume ATP (the chemical your body uses as energy). As well, Phentramin has a few ingredients that are known energy boosters. Best of all, Phentramin does this safely and without any major side effects.

Stress Relief. Along with all of the other benefits mentioned, Phentramin also helps you feel better about yourself. By regulating the hormones that are known to create or build on stress, Phentramin helps you relax and just feel better overall.

Since stress is one of the major barriers that many people face every day, taking Phentramin can be beneficial to your overall mental health, as well as your physical health. Please note that Phentramin is not an anti-depressant and should not be taken as such.

Phentramin has other benefits outside of what I talked about in this article too. However, if you’re looking to lose weight fast those are the top 5 ways that Phentramin will help you do it.

Taking Phentramin while maintaining a proper diet and exercise program has shown great success for many people. Best of all, Phentramin does not cost you an arm and a leg: a one month supply can be purchased for under $63. Why not give it a try?

It has become painfully obvious that the war cabal (aka “neocons”) now in control of the executive branch of the government of the United States is foaming at the mouth with desire to attack Iran. In the words of Yogi Berra, it’s deja vu all over again. “President Bush’s tough new stance on Iran and his military buildup in the Persian Gulf recall some of the drumbeats that preceded the U.S.-led invasion of Iraq in 2003. As then, the Bush administration is making allegations about Iran without providing proof.” The Daily Herald. The following is a sample of the tea leaves pointing toward a US instigated war with Iran:

1. For the first time since 2003, Bush ordering a second aircraft carrier strike group to the gulf;
2. Bush has authorized the military to kill or capture Iranian agents in Iraq;
3. US special forces stormed an Iranian diplomatic consulate in the northern Iraqi town of Irbil and seized Iranian diplomats lawfully stationed in Iraq,;
4. “Gunmen wearing Iraqi army uniforms seized an Iranian diplomat as he drove through central Baghdad, officials said Tuesday. Iran said it held the United States responsible.” 2-6-2007.
5. British sailors were seized by Iran. Britain claims its sailors were on patrol in Iraqi waters while Iran claims the sailors were boarding ships in Iranian waters. George Bush and Tony Blair have called the situation a crisis while demanding an immediate release of the sailors. Remind anyone of a cross between to famous cold war incidents–the USS Maddox in the Gulf of Tonkin and the USS Pueblo in North Korea?
6. The administration has armed Iran’s Arab neighbors with Patriot missiles (a similar move was made during Gulf War I);
7. Gen. George Casey, the incoming Army Chief of Staff and former ground commander in Iraq, testified before Congress that Bush’s 21,000 troop “surge” in Iraq consists of more combat troops than he requested;
8. Bush’s proposed budgets seek funds for 65,000 more army soldiers and 27,000 new Marines indicating that the so-called “surge” in Iraq is intended as a long-term deployment;
9. Reports from various military sources have suggested that US special forces are already operating inside Iran.

This game is getting so old and tired. The Bush administration is putting the pieces into place for an attack against Iran while, at the same time, denying it has any intention of undertaking such an attack. See comments of Sec. of Defense Gates: “Nobody is planning, we are not planning for a war with Iran.” In an attempt to creat a pretense for invading / bombing Iran, the war cabal has commenced small scale military operation against Iran in the hope that Iran will react militarily. That’s how the Vietnam War got underway, see the Gulf of Tonkin scam. The war cabal will claim we are under imminent threat from Iran’s nuclear program and that our troops in Iraq (who should never have been there in the first place) are now being attacked by Iranian agents.

In a wide-ranging article by Seymour Hersh on a shift in the Bush Administration’s middle east policy, the following comment is found: “Two carrier strike groups-the Eisenhower and the Stennis-are now in the Arabian Sea. One plan is for them to be relieved early in the spring, but there is worry within the military that they may be ordered to stay in the area after the new carriers arrive, according to several sources.” “Redirection”, New Yorker magazine (March 5, 2007). The upshot: Bush will have four carrier battle groups briefly at his disposal in the Arabian Sea this spring. Gee, you don’t think he’d try and use those four carriers to bomb Iran? Naw, I’m sure the carriers are just there on maneuvers.

For his part, Iranian President Ahmadinejad has played into the Neocon hands. He has challenged the reality of the Holocaust and said that Israel must be “wiped off the map.” His government has also “vowed to defy a resolution by the United Nations Security Council ordering it to freeze uranium enrichment.” But might not the actions of Ahmadinejad and the Iranian clerics seemingly goading the US into bombing further their own interests as well? The Iranian clerics are hugely unpopular among their own people. But a heavy handed US bombing campaign will certainly tilt Iranian public opinion in the favor of the clerics who can then posture as defenders of the homeland against the US threat. Repressive regimes need an enemy. Bush / Cheney & Ahmadinejad / the Iranian clerics need each other.

One final thought: what’s the Neocon endgame? If they are just going to try and bomb Iran back into the stone age (ala Israel’s recent foray into Lebanon), why import all the extra combat troops into the theater? Something tells me that the Neocons intend to grab a chunk of Iranian territory boarding Iraq and hold it. A possible motive would be access to the oil rich Caspian Sea. 2007 shall be a dangerous year for our nation. Hopefully the US people and the members of Congress will stiffen their backs and demand an end to the war in the middle east or, at a bare minimum, prevent its further escalation.

Following are 22 rules you can use to write headlines that will reach out and force the prospect to read your advertisement:

1. Your headline must offer something that your target market wants very badly.

2. Your headline must include something of self-interest to the reader.

3. If your product is new or improved, say so in the headline.

4. Do not just invoke curiosity in your headline, you must also include something of interest to the reader.

5. Avoid negativity in your headline. Always turn the negative into a positive statement.

6. Your headline should suggest a quick and easy way to achieve the benefit(s) stated.

7. Your headline should be believable.

8. Determine what would make you buy your product, and then try to incorporate that idea into your headline.

9. Avoid making your headline so short that you don’t get the main point across.

10. Avoid clever headlines that make the reader think “how clever.” Cleverness rarely gets people to read your ad or spend money.

11. Avoid headlines that sound dead, or like they should be at the bottom of a statue like “To Serve Humanity Better…”

12. Suggest in your headline that your copy contains useful and valuable information.

13. Use your headline to reach out and grab the reader’s attention.

14. Avoid curiosity headlines unless you also include interesting statements.

15. Avoid hard-to-grasp headlines that require the reader to think about what you are saying.

16. NEVER run an ad without a headline! You must give people a reason to read your ad.

17. NEVER run just one headline. Always test several different ones and then run with the one that pulls the best!

18. NEVER trust your own reaction to your headlines. Instead, get the reaction of someone else.

19. If you emphasize a word in your headline, make sure that word means something and is important.

20. Remember that large-type words act as a stopper. They get people to stop and pay attention, so choose the best words that will get the most attention.

21. Don’t let an artist or layout person decide which headline words to emphasize. An artist thinks in terms of color contrasts and tones, not in terms of making money! Take a look at other successful headlines and incorporate some of their ideas into your own ads.

22. Avoid writing an ad that attracts the wrong people. Make sure your headline attracts the people that are most interested in what you have to offer.

If you will follow these 22 guidelines for writing your headline copy, you will be more likely to have a successful headline and a successful ad! Take some time right now and look back over these guidelines. Then, try to write your own headlines. When you have a few that you think are wonderful, run them by a friend. If that friend asks to see the rest of your copy, you know you have written a true killer headline!

So, it may not be a Botticelli…Really valuable paintings are securely crated with enough padding to ensure stability, and then moved on ‘air ride’ suspension systems. Sometimes meters are employed to log severe bumps. Very expensive insurance protects the movers against the worst scenarios. This insurance can only be obtained because insurers are satisfied that the safest techniques are being used. The expense will reflect the value of the piece.

There is a point when although your picture is valuable, it is not worth quite so much fuss…even though damage is unthinkable.

It might be a family heirloom which you may want to take personal responsibility for, in the course of moving house.

You need to consider the three areas of danger:

1) Damage to the frame from bumping
2) Flaking old paint from bumping
3) Spearing the picture itself (often by bumping and so breaking the picture glass)

The frame can sometimes be the most valuable part of a picture. Wooden frames are easy to protect with padded paper, but plaster frames require much more attention.

One way to properly pack a plaster frame is to measure it, and source or cut, 2 pieces of cheap plywood board measuring 10cm wider and longer than the frame (giving 5cm overlap at each side).

These are the ’sacrificial’ boards…The ones that can take the knocks. You have to ensure that the picture, placed squarely in the middle, can neither move off the edge of the board, nor suffer from knocks… either in handling or from bumps on the van. You will place the frame… centred…on the middle of the board, and then use bubble wrap to stop it moving off the edge of the plywood…where it can be damaged.

1) Lay out two lengths of tie measuring x3 the width of the picture.
Mover’s web tie is best (or goes to your local sewing shop and get 1 inch hem liner as a substitute).

2) Lay on top some 3 ply movers paper… a heavy blanket, though not perfect, will do if need be

3) Lay out (30cm wide) bubble wrap around the 4 edges of the paper, two pieces thick. There will be 8 pieces in all.

4) Place the ply wood board onto the bubble wrap / paper.

5) Place the picture frame squarely onto the board.

6) Fold the shortest sides of the wrapping over the picture (you now have bubble-wrap protecting the under and top edges of the sides)

7) Place an equal sized piece of plywood on top of the picture… Kept off the picture by the thick wrapping you have just folded over the sides.

Fold up the long sides of the paper, from top and bottom and secure with parcel tape.

9) Take up the ties, make a loop in one end, pass the other end through it, and tie it off, putting minimal pressure on the package. The bubble wrap will give anti slip qualities to the package, but the pressure should just very slightly compress the package…and so ensure that the picture frame cannot move down between the plywood when the package is stood up.

So…You will need: Ties, wrapping Paper, plywood boards (or flattened cardboard boxes…according to your budget), parcel tape and bubble wrap.

When you have finished, you should be able to feel confident that the package is both shock proof, and protected from ripping.

If I were to think back to about twenty years ago the biggest thing that I would remember is that people used to be skinny! The waistlines of society are expanding at a rapid pace and I, for one, don’t like it.

Then again, I might be of a different breed. I’ve thought about this a lot, you see, and this is what I came up with: I must be an alien. I go for walks, I ride my bike, and I even work out- all things that a “normal” person in our society today simply just does not do.

I often get asked how I am able to stay as thin I am. I never had an answer simply because I thought it all made sense to me. But, the more I got to thinking about it, the more I decided to offer my top 5 ways of losing weight (and keeping it off once it’s gone). These are the exact same methods I follow to keep my shape.

1. Phentramin. The one word that’s made a world of difference for so many people. Phentramin is like a diet pill (though it isn’t has harsh on your system). Phentramin effectively controls your appetite, while at the same time increasing your metabolism and helping suppress the hormones that exasperate stress.

   Phentramin works fast and, compared to many “diet” pills, is pretty inexpensive. It’s been called the “lazy mans way out” simply because it works and doesn’t require frequent trips to the gym to make it happen.

1. Early morning cardio. Yes, you read that right. The next time you feel a bit chubby you might want to get up nice and early and go for a morning jog (or walk). Do this before you eat as you will burn the calories that your body consumed the day before. A calorie surplus is, as you probably know, why you gained the weight in the first place.

1. Weight machines. I know it’s not the most pleasant activity, but lifting weights will do wonders for your body. It’s like supercharging your workout- any cardio that you’ve been doing will become more effective and your body will literally begin to shed pounds! Don’t believe me? I don’t blame you- it’s not like getting up and actually trying it actually did anyone any good anyway.

1. Salads. Meat and potatoes are my favorite meal. Unfortunately, too much clogs your system and expands your waistline. I enjoy a good steak and mashed potato meal twice a week. The other five days I eat smart and enjoy a lot of salads.

   Why salad, you ask? Easy- a good salad is healthy, filling, and helps with the digestion of your meal. Eating salad never killed anyone, but too much red meat sure has. Think about it.

   And lastly…

1. Discipline. The one thing that nearly everybody is missing. You need to be disciplined and motivated to stay on your diet and to keep your workout routine going. As soon as you stop your results stop with it, and there is nothing more frustrating than losing 10 pounds only to gain it all back again.

Some of those might sound difficult, I know, but remember that there’s always an easy way out. If working out and eating right just aren’t for you, taking Phentramin might just do the trick.

When you’re marketing to consumers, the bottom line is that you’re trying to convince them to willingly part with some of their hard earned money. If you’re selling “essentials” - everything from toilet paper to a loaf of bread - getting them to do that isn’t very hard. It’s trying to sell them non-essentials that’s becoming more and more difficult.

Why, because - to put it simply - essentials are essential. Consider the examples above if you don’t believe me. But if you’re marketing anything other than an essential, you’re fighting an uphill battle. You’re now asking your would-be buyer to part with “discretionary” dollars. Those are dollars not already allocated - dedicated, actually - to providing life’s necessities.

When you’re chasing discretionary dollars, you’re in a race with a whole lot of other companies, big and small, that are also after those same often hard-to-find discretionary bucks. Not only are they hard to find, they’re usually hard to find in large quantities.

This from the Dept. of Labor

According to the Department of Labor, consumers spend 13 percent of their available dollars on food - both for home consumption and eating out. They spend another 32 percent on housing. That’s a total of 45 percent so far. Add to that 18 percent for transportation and your now at 63 percent. And that’s without taking into account anything spent on clothing, insurance, medical and dental bills, or similar essentials.

Last year, as a nation, Americans had a negative1 percent savings rate. What that means is that not only did most people not save any money, most dipped into their savings.

Looked at another way, a family of four with an annual household income of $37,500 was until recently described by another government agency as “at the hunger line.” What that meant is that those four people often went to bed at night hungry.

The hungry are no longer hungry

Today, that same government agency did away with hunger - the word, not that empty feeling in the stomach. That same family is not described as “nutritionally deprived.” Families at about the $25,000 level are labeled “severely nutritionally deprived.” As in really hungry. But that’s another story for another time.

That $37,000 thousand family of four we’ve been talking about has “discretionary income” - money they can spend on anything they want - on non-essentials - of 16 cents per family member per day. Even if they were to combine their discretionary money, they couldn’t afford to buy a pack of chewing gum a day.

Now, what was that non-essential product or service you wanted that family to buy?

You do have choices

If it’s not essential, most of “middle-America” probably can’t afford it. Which means you’d better start thinking about changing your marketing plans. Forget about middle-America and go after upscale-America. Those folks have always spent much more than they’ve earned. And thought little of it.

Or you can try to reposition your product or service as an “essential” by convincing the broadest possible group of people that they absolutely can’t live without whatever it is you’re selling.

Still another option, perhaps a better one: Find out what middle-America actually wants, then come up with a way to produce and provide it profitably.

Are your closets cluttered? Do you find yourself digging around for hours just to find something in your closet? This could all be avoided if you install a closet organizer to get your things stored in order. You can find a pre-made closet organizer at your local home store or on the Internet. Use your favorite search engine on the internet, such as Google ™, to locate a closet organizer. Also check out Ebay(tm), you may find what you need at a reduced price there. Closet organizers go a long way in getting you organized for easy access to the items you want.

It is a common problem for people to have trouble keeping clothing closets looking orderly when they always seem to be too full. The best answer to this is a closet organizer. Add a couple of shelves and hang a shoe holder from the inside of the door. Placing the wardrobe bar that you hang your clothes from higher in the closet can make room for another bar to be installed for another row of clothes. These ideas are some of the ideas that professional organizers use in their day to day work.

Most families have at least one extra closet in the home that they use as a “junk closet.” This is where the random miscellaneous items go that do not have a better place anywhere else in the house to be stored. It is just like a “junk drawer” that seems to be in everyone’s home. Instead of just throwing things in disorderly, add a few rows of shelves to place things on so that you save space and can find anything quickly. You can find many types of shelves where you find any other closet organizer. They only take a few minutes to put in and are build sturdy enough to be full of items and not break.

You can even double the storage capacity of your closets with a closet organizer. Anything from an entire closet system to just a simple set of hanging shelves could save space and keep you organized. For families that have a “junk closet,” a set of shelves could be the answer to getting it all in order so that it is easy to find anything that you need. Finding a closet organizer that suits your needs is as simple as browsing around your local home supply store, Walmart or the internet.

A well-trained graphologist (handwriting analyst) can
certainly identify personality strengths, challenges, and
potential relationship problems, but he/she won’t tell you
if you should marry or not. That decision is up to you.

Before committing to a life together (as with traditional
marriage), two people would help themselves by also
seriously considering who they really are (aside from all
societal programming and conditioning), why they are here
on earth, and what it is that their higher-selves (souls) have
chosen to experience. Graphology, meditation, and regression
therapy are effective ways to know the who and comprehensive
astrology and numerology open the door to the what and why.

It’s rare for modern-day couples to give much thought
to themselves and their relationships before committing,
legally or otherwise. It’s much more common to leap before
looking in matters of the heart and we see this as “by design”
so that we all put ourselves in the positions necessary to fulfill
spiritual contracts, many of which include difficulties.

For those interested in and possibly fated for a more cautious
approach, graphology (handwriting analysis) offers tremendous
personality and relationship insight.

Comprehensive numerology and astrology are good for
personality analysis, but our findings indicate that graphology
offers a deeper look into subconscious personality.

A well-trained graphologist can indicate if a person is emotionally
stable or volatile, honest or insincere, enthusiastic or depressed,
in good health or unwell, intellectually sharp or slow-witted,
artistic or analytical, sedentary or physically active, closed or
open-minded, extroverted or introverted, tense or relaxed,
immature or mature, and much more.

Some of the more important areas of interest a graphologist
examines in relation to romantic compatibility are as
follows: emotional maturity, integrity, honesty, sincerity,
need for variety, level of interest in sex, communication
skills (including listening skills), level of self-esteem,
critical analysis/sense of discernment (effectiveness in
identifying and understanding personality relationship
issues), acquisitiveness (desire for money and material
things), and financial extravagance/irresponsibility.

Since sex and money seem to be the root of many couple’s
problems, most certified graphologists apply complex
protocols to efficiently identify core issues. For example,
financial issues are frequently linked with some of the
following graphologically discernable personality traits:
impulsiveness, lack of discipline, lack of control, extreme
sensuousness, and distorted generosity.

Furthermore, graphologists consider the following traits
to be some of the more destructive common red flags that
challenge personal relationships: argumentativeness,
domineering/controlling disposition, evasiveness, intolerance,
vanity, withdrawal, reticence, drug and alcohol problems,
fear of intimacy, denial, self-deception, and rationalization.

Note that graphology assesses conscious and subconscious
character, so the graphologist is able to outline the real,
prevailing personality; the one that shows up while under
stress, not only the one displayed when on one’s best behavior.

A comprehensive handwriting analysis can indicate potential
for future behavior, but in most cases, for instance, not that
your mate is cheating right now. Still, it is possible to get a
very good idea whether or not the subject is cheating if that
person writes a reasonable sample (at least ¾ of a page) of
spontaneous handwriting, and writes specifically about his/her
faithfulness/sincerity and his/her current relationship/partner.
If he/she is in fact cheating, indications of integrity issues/
insincerity would likely show up in the analysis.

When considering a long term commitment and/or marriage,
it’s also important to acknowledge that permanence does not
exist when it comes to relationships here on Earth. All bonds
must dissolve at some point and fate guarantees (as can be
identified and tracked through comprehensive numerology and
astrology) whether a connection is to last only a day, endure a
lifetime, or some period of time in between. Almost everyone
wants an ideal match with which to spend the rest of his/her life.
Knowing this while accepting that not all relationships are meant
to be long-term can help minimize disappointment and heartache.

We would advise anyone to follow their heart, yet squarely face
the truth that higher-self (soul) plans are frequently in contrast
with ego-self (conscious personality) plans. Becoming aware of
and aligning yourself with your true self and highest path pay deep
dividends in the long run, although it’s not easy to give up many
of those ego-self demands and expectations.

Our easy to use (even without a certified graphologist designation)
Graphology Resource Keys and Graphology Trait-Based Guide
offer tremendous personality and compatibility insight.

An editorial in the Wall Street Journal really stood out to me today. Before I get to the article, let me just say that I’m always suspicious when Hollywood honors someone that is not an actor. So, when I saw Al Gore receive the Oscar for An Inconvenient Truth, I was a little skeptical, especially since the Midwest and Northeast were just pounded with a significant snowstorm.

I know that I’m not a scientist so I have no right using anecdotal and experiential knowledge to refute something so inconvenient. In fact, if we could eliminate common sense altogether, it would be such a logical place to live. Does anyone else find it odd that “every” scientist agrees with Global Warming?

It seems like scientists can’t even agree whether a high protein diet is good or bad for you. In any case, it’s rare for scientists to agree. In the early 1990s, I remember a scientist bucking the flow and saying that global warming was nothing more than normal fluctuations in the earth’s temperature and has amazing controls to self-correct. When it comes to Space and Time, it’s all speculation unless you’ve explored it firsthand. After all, someone driving for an hour through East Texas might guess that Texas is a state with huge trees. Travel several hours up to the panhandle, and you would suppose that the state is flat with no trees.

How can you determine what’s a normal temperature with 100 years data when the earth is millions of years old? Another question, if man is causing global warming, who caused the ice age?

Follow the Money

It would seem tempting to agree with those who are funding your research and global warming is big business (or should I say big government). There is tremendous financial incentive and peer pressure to agree that global warming is a fact. Isn’t it amazing that we (humans) can control the temperature of the world, but we can’t divert a hurricane?

Oh yeah, back to the WSJ article, apparently the electric bill for Al Gore’s home for 1 month is equivalent to the average electric bill for a full year. I’m not saying that global warming is fact or not or that humans are causing it or not. I’m just saying that it’s an inconvenient truth that one of the main advocates to force you to use less energy is a significant consumer. To be fair, a heated swimming pool is a necessity (at least until global warming reaches Tennessee).
