Michael Jackson dead at 50

2009-06-25T19:15:00.000-07:00

LOS ANGELES -- Michael Jackson, the sensationally gifted "King of Pop" who emerged from childhood superstardom to become the entertainment world's most influential singer and dancer before his life and career deteriorated in a freakish series of scandals, died Thursday, a person with knowledge of the situation told The Associated Press. He was 50.

The person said Jackson died in a Los Angeles hospital. The person was not authorized to speak publicly and requested anonymity.

The circumstances of his death were not immediately clear. Jackson was not breathing when Los Angeles Fire Department paramedics responded to a call at his Los Angeles home about 12:30 p.m., Capt. Steve Ruda told the Los Angeles Times. The paramedics performed CPR and took him to UCLA Medical Center, Ruda told the newspaper.

Jackson's death brought a tragic end to a long, bizarre, sometimes farcical decline from his peak in the 1980s, when he was popular music's premier all-around performer, a uniter of black and white music who shattered the race barrier on MTV, dominated the charts and dazzled even more on stage.

His 1982 album "Thriller" -- which included the blockbuster hits "Beat It," "Billie Jean" and "Thriller" -- remains the biggest-selling album of all time, with more than 26 million copies.

He was perhaps the most exciting performer of his generation, known for his feverish, crotch-grabbing dance moves, his high-pitched voice punctuated with squeals and titters. His single sequined glove and tight, military-style jacket were trademarks second only to his ever-changing, surgically altered appearance.

As years went by, he became an increasingly freakish figure. His skin became lighter and his nose narrower. He surrounded himself with children at his Neverland ranch, often wore a germ mask while traveling and kept a pet chimpanzee named Bubbles as one of his closest companions.

In 2005, he was cleared of charges he molested a 13-year-old cancer survivor at Neverland in 2003. He had been accused of plying the boy with alcohol and groping him. The case took a fearsome toll on his career and image, and he fell into serious financial trouble.

Hundreds of people gathered outside the hospital as word of his death spread. The emergency entrance at the UCLA Medical Center, which is near Jackson's rented home, was roped off with police tape.

In New York's Times Square, a low groan went up in the crowd when a screen flashed that Jackson had died, and people began relaying the news to friends by cell phone.

"No joke. King of Pop is no more. Wow," Michael Harris, 36, of New York City, read from a text message a friend sent to his telephone. "It's like when Kennedy was assassinated. I will always remember being in Times Square when Michael Jackson died."

Vettel wins British GP in Red Bull one-two

2009-06-22T18:19:00.001-07:00

SILVERSTONE: Germany’s Sebastian Vettel ran away with the British Grand Prix in a Red Bull one-two while championship leader Jenson Button struggled at home in sixth place yesterday.

Australian Mark Webber finished runner-up, 15.1s behind the 21-year-old, with Brazilian Rubens Barrichello in third place for Brawn GP.

Britain’s Button, winner of six of the first seven races, had his overall lead over Barrichello trimmed to 23 points after finishing off the podium for the first time this year.

The dominant victory, from pole position in a race low on incident, was Vettel’s second of the season and third of his Formula One career.

The German, who also led Red Bull to a one-two in China in April, is now 25 points adrift of Button with nine races remaining.

“Thank you very much guys, this is a dream coming true. We’ve won the British Grand Prix,” he said over the team radio after taking the chequered flag.

“It is only my second time here but I enjoyed it so much,” added the youngster who also led Red Bull to a one-two in China in April.

“This is what I was dreaming of when I saw the first Grands Prix at Silverstone in the era of (Britain’s 1992 world champion Nigel) Mansell,” he added later.

Ferrari’s Felipe Massa was fourth, ahead of Germany’s Nico Rosberg for Williams.

“I put a lot of effort in the race and if I am honest I must say I didn’t expect to finish fourth,” said Massa. “It was a great result.”

Italy’s Jarno Trulli was seventh for Toyota, with Ferrari’s Kimi Raikkonen taking the last point in a race billed as a farewell to the track that hosted the first Formula One championship race in 1950.

Red Bull’s superiority over the Mercedes-powered Brawn was underlined by Vettel lapping more than a second a lap faster than his rivals in the early stages, despite being heavier on fuel, and finishing 41.1s ahead of Barrichello.

“I don’t think we could have beaten them today,” said Brawn owner Ross Brawn.

Button, who had struggled all weekend for grip and to get heat into his tyres, started sixth but had fallen to ninth after the opening lap.

He worked himself back into the points and then made up two places at his second pitstop, when he switched to softer tyres and chased Rosberg all the way to the finish.

McLaren’s world champion Lewis Hamilton, who won by a massive 68 seconds in the wet last year, finished 16th – the Briton’s fourth race in a row out of the points.

Donington Park is due to host the British Grand Prix next year, although Formula One supremo Bernie Ecclestone has said it will return to Silverstone if that circuit is not ready. — Reuters

How To Make A Girl Fall In Love With You

2009-06-18T20:54:00.001-07:00

Let's get started. Getting a girl of your dreams is much like getting the car of your dream. But unlike a car which you can always bargain for, there is nothing like a 20 percent discount in courting the girl of your dreams, she's so sweet a thing to be discounted, you dearly are in love with her and your feelings for her can only be communicated not by the words of the mouth, but by the words of the heart. Getting the girl actually depends on how big your heart is - faint heart, never won fair lady.

The first dating idea for any man is to make a good impression. In your doing so, you don't have to talk, dress or do the common things that all the Toms do to get a decent girl's attention. Be unique, that's all you need. Be a man of his own style. Dress decently - indecency can make one be mistaken for arrogance; watch your language - obscene language gives the impression of immaturity, being uncultured and cheap; be a man of good habits - don't drink or smoke like any other loser.

How to make her fall in love with you? Take your time. Add some romance to your dating style. When in College I had a crush on the most beautiful lady in our first year lot. Though all senior guys were out to get that girl, I managed to divert her attention from the other guys. I wrote her three letters without disclosing my identity and slid into her room secretly; all I said was 'Yours Secret Admirer.' The first letter contained the meaning of her name, this I got by playing around with the initials of her name to make meaning. The second was a funny message that could only be read backwards and it was all about her physique and her smartness. In the third letter I told the girl to be ready to receive a rose flower from her admirer, but only if she could be kind enough to phone him using a number that I had included in the letter. The girl did phone me that very night, and her first words to me were, "Hallo Secret Admirer." So, the story of our love affair came to be. Later she told me that was so creative of me, no one had approached her in that manner. I made her fall in love with me and made a date in the romantic manner.

Befriending and understanding the girl you are out to get is the next important thing. This is what I also did. You have to understand that as a lady, she loves to be loved, adores to be adored and needs to be needed. This will move you closer to the girl and you'll get to know what she's into, what she likes and dislikes, and what her style is. Love is built upon friendship and it always leaves individuals better off having known each other should they break up. I and my College steady were to break some time later but to date, we are the best of buddies. Be sure that bringing out the selflessness friend in you will make her create room for you in her heart.

A shoulder to lean on and some good friend that she can always turn to is all that a lady wants. Please don't hesitate to be helpful and supportive. Be that friend who rekindles her zeal of hardworking and restoring hope back into her life when she looses hope. This above all other things will make you her daily vitamin simply because you bring out the best in her in terms of personality and character. In you, she'll have found that friend whom she can open up to, share with and advice each other on the rights and wrongs, the dos and don'ts of life. Don't forget to always be there to celebrate the good times, and to lend an ear when the girl needs you to listen as a friend.

Make the girl feel special; because she's someone's friend - your friend, and let her know that she too has touched your life in a unique way like no one else could. Compliment her for her company and for being there when you needed her, when you felt sad and all alone. Show appreciations for the comfort the girl offers you and for making you smile.

In your day to day talks, share your dreams, your world, and every aspect of your life with your girl. Always dream with her, build with her, and always cheer her on and encourage her. Tell your girl how you always think about her even when you try not to think about her. Let the girl know that she's your first thing in the morning and the last thing when you go to bed at night.

Her knowing that you were thinking of her when you slipped beneath the softness of your blanket and gave in to the bliss of sweet dreams, will make her go 'my my' and her heart will sing your name all the year round.

You have to be creative and constructive to keep girl's interest in you so full of life. I remember one time I told my girlfriend to be to imagine we are both deaf and dump. We then sat opposite each other on the table and started sharing our feelings for each other using eyes and hand signs. It turned out to be some fun. There was also this time that we were in the library and we decided we are not going to speak to each other verbal, so I wrote a love note on a paper and passed it across the table to her, she replied and on and on we carried on our love on paper conversation till we almost exhausted a whole rim of paper. At sometime, I noticed that some guys sited with us on the table were enjoying our ordeal than their studies. Such are the things that made the girl embrace my world. I remember her suggesting that we play deaf and dump two years after we broke up, can you imagine that?

Never fail to phone her, even when she least expects it. I once called some girl that I was interested in at four o'clock in the morning. When inquiring of what I was doing up so early, I told her I was in thirteenth heaven, where people think of their loved ones when they can't sleep. Wow! First thing early the next morning, she was at my door with a king-sized hug for me. No matter how many dates you take her, don't make any elbow - exceeding moves after any date, just drop her home and with a friendly handshake, wish her good night. Don't kiss her when she expects you to. Your respect as a gentleman will be earned on how patient you are with her when it comes to such matters as kissing her and accessing her inner graces.

The writing is on the wall that you want her, but you can't have her just yet. Increase your demand. Try to show her that men are also hard to get at times. Make her realize that when she feels a little dizzy, a little tired, a little sad, a little sick, a lot bored and very much cold, she's actually missing vitamin you. By this time, she'll be so much into you and since love is truthful and is characterized by open and honest communication, honestly promise her your everlasting devotion, loyalty, respect, and your unconditional love for a lifetime. Prove to her that you'll always be there for her, to listen and to hold her hand, and that you'll always do your best to make her happy, and feel loved.

Remember, patience is the key to her heart; be like that gardener watching a fruit as it hangs on the tree, day after day admiring it, but, exercising tremendous self-discipline, neither feeling the fruit, nor pinching it, nor testing it to see if it is ready. And then, one day he holds out his hand and the fruit simply drops into it, ripe, warm and eager to be eaten.

The patience and self-control which you practice will make you more attractive and charming. This will qualify you as her daily vitamin and win you that heart hers.

I wish you to meet the girl of your dreams ASAP, make her fall in love with you, and make her feel the happiest girl in the world!

Affiliate Marketing Make Money Opportunities

2009-06-18T19:31:00.000-07:00

There's a lot of hype around the phrase "make money with affiliate programs." Can you really make money with affiliate programs, or is the market too saturated? The answer is you absolutely can! There is so much room to make money online. Stop listening to pessimists.

Are you looking for ways to make money at home? Do you want to quit your day job because you hate working for other people? Do you just want to earn a bit of extra cash on the side? There is a way. I'll show you.

The Growth of Affiliate Marketing

Affiliate marketing is when a merchant arranges with an affiliate (you) to sell their product online in exchange for a commission. Affiliate marketing started in the mid 90s because merchants realized that they could get the word out about their products easily, quickly, and to a larger audience via the internet. The amount of income you can earn is limitless.

As long as there are merchants who want their products sold and there is demand for the product, you can make major sales. The higher the priced item, the more of a commission you receive. For instance, if you become an Amazon affiliate and promote their FreeMotion Treadmill t7.3 which sells for $3,599, if you receive 10% commission, you would get $359.00 just for that one sale. Do you see how easy this is? It gets easier.

Opportunities to Make Money with Affiliate Programs

Here's a list of manufacturers that have a big stake in having affiliates sell their products:

1. Sony
2. Dell
3. Barnes & Nobles
4. eBay
5. GAP
6. Weight Watchers

There are tons more companies desperately looking for affiliates to sell their products. There's so much money to be made as an affiliate. So how do you become a successful affiliate marketer?

Join Reputable Affiliate Networks

If you want to make money with affiliate programs, you'll need to know which affiliate networks to join. Even before joining an affiliate network, you'll need to know how to promote other people's products online if you want to make serious money. I recommend going online and finding an affiliate handbook that takes you step by step through the affiliate sales process, especially if you're new to the internet marketing game.

Joining reputable affiliate networks like Clickbank, Commission Junction and Linkshare will ensure that you get paid on time, have a hassle free transaction with the customer, and make tons of money. Or, you can join an affiliate "university" that will teach you how to become a wealthy affiliate from the ground up. With this kind of support from these two resources mentioned you will be well on your way to becoming financially independent.

Get Ready to Make Some Serious Money

Many people make money with affiliate programs, but many others don't. Why don't they make money? They don't make money for a couple of reasons, but the main reasons are:

a)They don't have a road map (an affiliate handbook) to show them
exactly how to become a super affiliate; and
b)They give up 5 minutes before the miracle.

Making money with affiliate programs is not a get rich quick scheme. It takes dedication, perseverance, and determination to succeed no matter what. If you do nothing else, definitely buy an informational affiliate handbook or affiliate guide to walk you through the process or join an affiliate program that will teach you how to make money as an affiliate so that you can become financially independent. Then you can tell your boss to take a hike!

Pay Per Click Contextual Advertising

2009-06-18T18:33:00.000-07:00

Contextual advertising means that ads which appear on a web page are related to its content, as determined by a spider (or robot) which scans the page and sends instructions to the advertising program about what ads to serve. This means that if your page is about fishing, you’ll get ads related to fishing, such as fishing gear, baits or hooks. If the program has a good technology of content scanning and a broad range of advertisers, then the ads appearing on a web page will be very targeted, and readers will be interested in them. When a visitor clicks an ad, you are paid a certain amount of money, which depends on the advertiser’s bid, and which can be between $0.01 for less competitive niches, and even tens of US dollars for the niches with lots of major players.

Advantages of contextual advertising

1. Low admission barrier: there is no traffic limit for your blog to get accepted, so even small, new blogs can use it
2. Easy integration: you can blend the ads with your page layout, in order to make it look like being a part of it, without having to know any programming language
3. High CTR: if well optimized, on niche sites, contextual advertising can have 10%-20% CTR, which is a very good rate.

Drawbacks of contextual advertising

1. Cheap look: many people perceive ads which serve contextual ads as being low quality, or made especially for the purpose of serving ads (maybe you’ve come across the term MFA, which means Made For AdSense)
2. Low performance on sticky sites: readers have to click away and leave your site, in order for you to get money.

List of contextual advertising programs

Google AdSense: the most known and widespread contextual pay-per-click advertising program. I’ve been using AdSense since 2006, and I can say that they are trustful, and they pay as promised in their terms of service. You have to make at least $100 before they’d issue a payment.
Yahoo Publisher Network: in order to be accepted, you need to have a valid US Social Security or Tax ID number, and your website must be predominantly in English and targeted at a US user base. The payment threshold is also $100

Miva Monetization Center

AdSonar
Adify
AdBrite

ShoppingAds: not exactly a contextual ads service, but you have the possibility to choose keywords for your ads block, so it will display only ads related to whatever you choose. All Non-US traffic will always see CPA (Cost-Per-Action) ads, regardless of your campaign configuration. The US visitors will see Cost-Per-Click (CPC) ads.

Your 2009 UEFA Champions League Winners Are… Barcelona

2009-05-27T21:22:00.001-07:00

I know we’ve done our fair share of lauding Barcelona on The Offside recently, and I know that has annoyed a couple of people. So if anyone doesn’t want to read any more of the same I recommend clicking away now.

As you should know by now (if not then where have you been?) it finished Barcelona 2-0 Man Utd in Rome. Here are the goals....

With the game just ten minutes old, Samuel Eto’o turned Nemanja Vidic inside out and toe-poked past van der Sar:

And then in the 70th minute Messi scored. With his head. Past van der Sar (who’s about 10.5″ taller I think):

All the pre-match talk was about Barcelona’s creaky defence. But it was Vidic and Ferdinand who looked suspect. This game made it a little harder to make the case for those two as the best central defensive pairing in the world. In contrast, Gerard Pique and Carles Puyol were man-mountains at the back.

But it was midfield where Barcelona really lost it. Ably assisted by Busquets, Xavi and Iniesta absolutely ran the show in midfield. I was keeping an eye on Xavis’ passing stats (vie UEFA’s MatchCentre thingy) throughout the game, and the numbers tell you all you need to know. Xavi completed 66 out of 71 passes for a 93% completion rate, with Iniesta just behind (56/65 so 86%).
Xavi not only made the most passes and completed the most passes, he also did more running than anyone else on the pitch by covering 11,369 metres. So pretty hard to find an alternative Man of the Match (although Pique got a mention in the LiveBlog).

Man Utd’s plan was obviously to try and contain Barcelona, as evidenced by playing hardworkers Rooney and Park on the flanks. But that basically backfired and allowed Barcelona a little too much possession while neutering Utd’s usual attacking verve. By the time Fergie switched things around it was all too late.

And so Barcelona are European Champions, netting Pep Guardiola an historic treble (first Spanish team to take Champions League, La Liga and Copa del Rey) in his debut season. Best of all, they did it by playing beautiful beautiful football and with a fair share of homegrown players in the team. No wonder Michel Platini looked so happy while handing out the winners’ medals.

So congratulations to Barcelona, the very worthy winners of the 2009 Champions League.

How To Create Backlinks To Generate Traffic

2009-05-19T19:37:00.000-07:00

Generating traffic to a website entails hard work, perseverance, and a great deal of patience. Traffic is all a website needs to sustain itself. With the rising domain name registration fees and web hosting costs, making a website profitable is an requirement for a lot of webmasters. And it is impossible to make your website earn its wares without traffic. Traffic refers to real people who visit your site. And they are the people who will bring you the profits that you need.

To generate traffic to your site, you have to do some dirt work. You have to distribute the backlinks of your site. Backlinks are the URL's of your site posted in different places all over the internet. These are live links that people can click so that they get directed to your website. In order to amass traffic, you have to specifically add your backlinks - thousands of them to be exact - to key places over the internet.

Backlinks work two ways in generating traffic. The first way is the most obvious way. When people see your backlink as they go about their surfing habits, then there is a 50-50 chance that they'll visit your site. If you get people interested enough, then they will definitely check out your website and see the things you have to offer.

The best places to put your backlinks are websites that have regular high-density traffic. Well-populated forums and social networks are your best bets. These places have a lot of people coming in and out on a regular basis. You will definitely want your backlinks showing on your forum signature so that every time you make a comment on something, your backlink shows with your post.

You can apply this tip on almost all forums found over the internet today. Most of them allow at least one live backlink signature for each member. So go get yourself active in a forum with hundreds of thousands of members. With every post you make, you'll have one important backlink to add up to your website's advertising requirements.

Another place to put your backlinks is on social networking websites. Social networking websites have exploded in the past few years. The main idea of these websites is for you to acquire a good number of friends, which are referred as your social network. And with more people associated with you, you are more likely to promote your website better. You can effectively invite people who are part of your social network to take a look at your site and see the things they can enjoy there. You can put the backlink on your own page. And of course, you can also post them all over your social network as a comment, message, or testimonials to your friends.

But this is just one way of how backlinks work. The other way backlinks become beneficial in generating website traffic is directly related to how search engines work. Link popularity is one of the algorithms considered by search engines when it comes to ranking your page. The more popular your page is, the better they fair on the search engine results. And your selected keywords and backlinks have a lot to do with it. The more backlinks you have, the more popular your website gets.

And so if a person types your website's name, or sometimes even your chosen keywords on the search engine box, your website will show at the top of the results page. And in that position, you are more likely to get traffic to your site. Search engine marketing has always been the focus of most internet marketing strategies devised over the internet during the past few years.

To add to the number of your active backlinks, you can submit your site to numerous link directories over the internet. Link directories are websites that are primarily dedicated to keeping a list of all submitted URL's of other websites. The links are classified according to their respective categories. In effect, these websites look like an online yellow pages directory. Most of them offer their listing for free. However, there are others that require some sort of a fee for inclusion purposes.

So get yourself thousands of backlinks to make your site more popular. Backlinks will definitely drive that much-needed traffic to your site so don't think twice about spending some time and effort in distributing them all over the internet. Just keep in mind that half of the success of your website depends on them.

MotoGP Round 3 2009 Jerez, Sunday, 3 May 2009

2009-05-03T20:12:00.001-07:00

Valentino Rossi moved confidently to the top of the 2009 MotoGP World Championship by picking off all three of his title rivals in Sunday's Spanish Grand Prix at Jerez.

The Italian, second in both Qatar and Japan, began round three from fourth on the grid and one point behind Fiat Yamaha team-mate Jorge Lorenzo, after losing out to the 21-year-old one week earlier at Motegi.

But Lorenzo's resistance lasted just one lap on Sunday before Rossi overtook the pole sitter for third position and set his sights on 2007 world champion Casey Stoner.

Stoner, winner of more 800cc races than any other rider - his most recent at the Qatar season opener - provided arguably Rossi's toughest opposition, and was the only rider to re-pass the #46 during Sunday's race.

Nevertheless, the Italian's second move stuck and - while Stoner concentrated on securing a career best third at the Desmosedici's bogey circuit - Rossi was left facing a 1.3sec gap to race leader Dani Pedrosa.

The 2007 title runner-up is at his most dangerous when left unattended at the front, and Rossi initially struggled to hunt down the Spaniard. The pair were almost even in terms of best lap time, but Rossi was more consistent and Pedrosa's advantage suddenly evaporated.

Rossi ultimately made his victory pass on lap 18 of 27 and confirmed his 98th career win by 2.7sec over Pedrosa at the chequered flag.

Afterwards, Rossi rejected claims that he had been sandbagging on Saturday, when he qualified 0.7sec behind Lorenzo.

“This is a wonderful victory because yesterday we were really quite worried,” he said. “I couldn't ride how I wanted to and it was very hard.

"We had to work all together to understand how to fix the problem and finally we made a big change to try to make the bike feel how I like in the corner, which worked, so I have to say a huge thank you to Jeremy [Burgess] and all my guys.

“This morning we could tell immediately that things were much better and then we made a couple more small changes after warm-up, which made my M1 feel even better.

“In the first few laps I was behind but I came back and had a great fight with Casey. When I arrived in second place, Dani was already more than one-second ahead and I know in that situation Dani is always very difficult to catch," continued Rossi.

“I tried to concentrate and push. At first I didn't gain, but lap by lap I was able to improve my pace and be consistent. My bike worked very well and I was fast with a sliding tyre so I was able to catch and then overtake Dani.

“To win at Jerez is fantastic. It is always a great pleasure and I'm proud to get my first victory of the year.”

On the slow down lap, Rossi repeated his famous 'portaloo' celebration from the 1999 Spanish 250GP.

“It's ten years since I made the joke with the toilet here and so I thought it would be funny to do it again if I won – I liked that a lot!” he said. “Now I hope that the changes we've made here will help us for the rest of the season.”

“This is a very important victory and after two second places everyone in the team was waiting for it and really wanted it,” admitted team manager Davide Brivio. “To win like this is something special; after being in trouble and quite sad on Saturday there was a lot of effort, long meetings, hard work by all the engineers, mechanics and technicians and finally we were able to give a good package to Valentino.

“If you can make Valentino feel happy on the bike then he will always give you this kind of performance and today it was wonderful to watch."

With Lorenzo crashing out of fourth place late in the race, Rossi is now eleven points clear of Stoner heading into round four, the French Grand Prix at Le Mans, with Pedrosa and Lorenzo both 24 points from the top in third.

Cinta tidak selalu harus berwujud Bunga

2009-04-14T22:32:00.001-07:00

Suami saya adalah seorang karyawan, saya mencintai sifatnya yang alami dan saya menyukai perasaan hangat yang muncul di hati saya ketika saya bersandar di bahunya.

Dua tahun dalam masa perkenalan, dan tiga tahun dalam masa pernikahan, saya harus akui, bahwa saya mulai merasa lelah, alasan-2 saya mencintainya dulu telah berubah menjadi sesuatu yang menjemukan.

Saya seorang wanita yang sentimentil dan benar2 sensitif serta berperasaan halus. Saya merindukan saat-saat romantis seperti seorang anak yang menginginkan permen. Tetapi semua itu tidak pernah saya dapatkan. Suami saya jauh berbeda dari yang saya harapkan. Rasa sensitif-nya kurang. Dan ketidakmampuannya dalam menciptakan suasana yang romantis dalam pernikahan kami telah mementahkan semua harapan saya akan cinta yang ideal.

Suatu hari, saya beranikan diri untuk mengatakan keputusan saya kepadanya, bahwa saya menginginkan perceraian."Mengapa?", dia bertanya dengan terkejut. Saya lelah, kamu tidak pernah bisa memberikan cinta yang saya inginkan" Dia terdiam dan termenung sepanjang malam di depan komputernya, tampak seolah-olah sedang mengerjakan sesuatu, padahal tidak.

Kekecewaan saya semakin bertambah, seorang pria yang bahkan tidak dapat mengekspresikan perasaannya, apalagi yang bisa saya harapkan darinya? Dan akhirnya dia bertanya, "Apa yang dapat saya lakukan untuk merubah pikiranmu?". Saya menatap matanya dalam-dalam dan menjawab dengan pelan,"Saya punya pertanyaan, jika kau dapat menemukan jawabannya di dalam hati saya, saya akan merubah pikiran saya: Seandainya, saya menyukai etangkai bunga indah yang ada di tebing gunung dan kita berdua tahu jika kamu memanjat gunung itu, kamu kan mati. Apakah kamu akan melakukannya untuk saya?"

Dia termenung dan akhirnya berkata,"Saya akan memberikan jawabannya besok." Hati saya langsung gundah mendengar responnya.

Keesokan paginya, dia tidak ada dirumah, dan saya menemukan selembar kertas dengan oret-2an tangannya dibawah sebuah gelas yang berisi susu hangat yang bertuliskan....

"Sayang, saya tidak akan mengambil bunga itu untukmu, tetapi ijinkan saya untuk menjelaskan alasannya."Kalimat pertama ini menghancurkan hati saya.Saya melanjutkan untuk membacanya.

"Kamu bisa mengetik di komputer dan selalu mengacaukan program di PC-nya dan akhirnya menangis di depan monitor, saya harus memberikan jari2 saya supaya bisa membantumu dan memperbaiki programnya."

"Kamu selalu lupa membawa kunci rumah ketika kamu keluar rumah, dan saya harus memberikan kaki saya supaya bisa mendobrak pintu, dan membukakan pintu untukmu ketika pulang."

"Kamu suka jalan-2 ke luar kota tetapi selalu nyasar ditempat-tempat baru yang kamu kunjungi, saya harus menunggu dirumah agar bisa memberikan mata saya untuk mengarahkanmu."

"Kamu selalu pegal-2 pada waktu 'teman baikmu' datang setiap bulannya, dan saya harus memberikan tangan saya untuk memijat kakimu yang pegal."

"Kamu senang diam di rumah, dan saya selalu kuatir kamu akan menjadi 'aneh'. Dan harus membelikan sesuatu yang dapat menghiburmu di rumah atau meminjamkan lidahku untuk menceritakan hal-hal lucu yang aku alami."

"Kamu selalu menatap komputermu, membaca buku dan itu tidak baik untuk kesehatan matamu, saya harus menjaga mata saya agar ketika kita tua nanti, saya masih dapat menolong mengguntingkan kukumu dan mencabuti ubanmu."

"Tanganku akan memegang tanganmu, membimbingmu menelusuri pantai, menikmati matahari pagi dan pasir yang indah. Menceritakan warna2 bunga yang bersinar nan indah seperti cantiknya wajahmu".

"Tetapi sayangku, saya tidak akan mengambil bunga itu untuk mati. Karena, saya tidak sanggup melihat air matamu mengalir menangisi kematianku."

"Sayangku, saya tahu, ada banyak orang yang bisa mencintaimu lebih dari saya mencintaimu."

"Untuk itu sayang, jika semua yang telah diberikan tanganku, kakiku, mataku, tidak cukup bagimu. Aku tidak bisa menahan dirimu mencari tangan, kaki, dan mata lain yang dapat membahagiakanmu."

Air mata saya jatuh ke atas tulisannya dan membuat tintanya menjadi kabur, tetapi saya tetap berusaha untuk membacanya.

"Dan sekarang, sayangku, kamu telah selasai membaca jawaban saya. Jika kamu puas dengan semua jawaban ini, dan tetap menginginkanku untuk tinggal di rumah ini, tolong bukakan pintu rumah kita, saya sekarang sedang berdiri disana menunggu jawabanmu." "Jika kamu tidak puas, sayangku, biarkan aku masuk untuk membereskan barang-barangku, dan aku tidak akan mempersulit hidupmu. Percayalah, bahagiaku bila kau bahagia."

Saya segera berlari membuka pintu dan melihatnya berdiri di depan pintu dengan wajah penasaran sambil tangannya memegang susu dan roti kesukaanku.

Oh, kini saya tahu, tidak ada orang yang pernah mencintai saya lebih dari dia mencintaiku.Itulah cinta, di saat kita merasa cinta itu telah berangsur-angsur hilang dari hati kita karena kita merasa dia tidak dapat memberikan cinta dalam wujud yang kita inginkan, maka cinta itu sesungguhnya telah hadir dalam wujud lain yang tidak pernah kita bayangkan sebelumnya.

Seringkali yang kita butuhkan adalah memahami wujud cinta dari pasangan kita, dan bukan mengharapkan wujud tertentu.

Karena cinta tidak selalu harus berwujud "bunga".

Taking Online Surveys is a Simple and Easy Way of Earning an Additional Income.

2009-04-12T19:11:00.000-07:00

Participating in Online Surveys can bring you that additional income that you always longed for. Though most people are busy all the time, there are times when they are free and often wonder how best they can utilize it profitably.
There are also stay at home moms and dads who are always on the look out for ways and means to keep them gainfully occupied. There are others who are anxious to earn an additional income either to make both ends meet or to lead a better lifestyle. Taking online surveys is one of the smartest ways of keeping yourself profitably engaged without spending money.

All participants in online surveys must keep in mind that online surveys can only generate an additional income and not a full-time income to sustain yourself. Once this is understood you are not going to be disappointed with whatever online income you may generate by taking surveys.

There are two ways of getting started.

The first method is to research the Internet yourself, identify the legitimate online paid survey companies and enroll you directly with them without paying any fee. Researching the Internet using such terms as "Paid Surveys", "Paid Online Surveys", and “Online Surveys" will lead you to the websites of these companies. This is no doubt time consuming, especially if you are new to researching in the Internet.

The advantage is that you enroll for free with a legitimate paid survey company. When opinions from your category of individuals are required these companies will send you the surveys online. Once you have completed the survey by expressing your opinions, payments will be made to you either in cash or vouchers which can be redeemed. This is a good course of action if you want to avoid being scammed.
The more paid survey sites you enroll with the more opportunities you will get to participate in online surveys and more additional income you will be able to generate.

The second method to take online surveys is to join a fee based paid survey site. Unfortunately the Scams vastly outnumber the genuine sites in the Internet. The
scammers are out there to mislead and grab the money from gullible people who are anxious to earn an additional online income by working at home during their free hours. These sites do not have up to date information. Some of the companies in their data base no longer exist and some do not offer any payment for your efforts. If you entertain any doubt about the company it will be wise to check with the BBB- Better Business Bureau or other similar organizations.

On the other hand there are good fee based paid survey sites which provide you with up to date useful information and a data base of a comprehensive list of companies that will pay you for taking surveys online. You pay only a one time fee of about $35.00 to become a member of the paid survey company. You will subsequently have to apply to the organizations in the database individually and start signing up.

This will save you a lot of time and effort especially if you are new, need guidance and wish to start soon. Now identifying and choosing the genuine fee based paid survey sites is a tricky business. One smart way of reducing the chances of being scammed is to visit the websites of some of the reputed Internet Marketers and identifying the survey sites they are themselves promoting. The chances are that they will not promote Scams.

Thousands of people actively participate in online surveys all over the world everyday. It is indeed a fun way of keeping yourself reasonably occupied and earning an additional income.

This one is one of the best paid to survey program.

I lost my love – every relationship has a time line

2009-04-07T22:56:00.000-07:00

Alfred Lord Tennyson wrote “T’is better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all.” I remember the first time in my life when “I lost my love”, I thought, like many people in this situation, that my world had come to an abrupt end.

We all must not forget that all relationships have a normal time span. My first affair lasted just a few years ago. I was at college and head over heals in love, or so I thought at the time.

As our life advances, so does the length of the relationship. In the majority of cases, each of will have one main love affair; the others will come and go. For this reason we can consider it normal that a relationship has a natural time span.

I had just started working and my then girlfriend and I decided to live together. The lease on her apartment expired and it seemed ridiculous to continue living apart and continuing to pay two rents, so one day she moved in with me. But I found it difficult to accept her coming in and taking over things as she did. My work took me away from home very often and she could not accept my repeated absences. For my part, I didn’t feel ready to commit myself fully with her. After a few months she left me and we split up.

I have no regrets about the time we were together. I look back and realize that she would never have been the main love of my life. I was happy in her company and I still have a considerable affection for her. “I lost my love because I could not see myself committing myself to spending the rest of my life with her. Now I look back and realize I was not ready for such a commitment.

After the split up I was sad, but as I was traveling a lot with my work and I didn’t have the time to spend “crying over the spilt milk!” I was upset when she said she was leaving, and I understand that she was upset by the way I had behaved.

I didn’t want to lose her; I suppose that I would have been happy for things to continue as before. “Every relationship has a time line;” they grow or die and I decided to let mine die. And so”I lost my love.”

Mr Jackson has devised a common sense, easy to read plan to help people with relationship problems.

Funding The Best Buy on A Digital Camera

2009-04-07T22:24:00.000-07:00

The best buy digital camera is not necessarily the cheapest, but the one that has the best overall package for your needs. It is important to check on the various functions and accessories before you compare prices to ensure that you find the best buy digital camera. The main reason that people want to buy a digital camera is for convenience rather than using a traditional film camera and there are a lot of best buy digital camera deals available. The first point is to find the best buy digital camera with the highest resolution you can afford which will normally be at least 2 to 3 megapixels (2 million to 3 million pixels). If you will only output pictures to a computer monitor (for viewing, Web page use or e-mail) then the best buy digital camera will be one with a 640-by 480 pixel resolution and it will provide very satisfactory results. There are very few genuine best buy digital camera packages with high-resolution and the specified resolution may only apply to software interpolation rather than the true optical resolution. To print photographs on a good (at least 720 dots per inch) color printer you will need to look for the best buy digital camera with a high resolution.

Many retailers advertise their best buy digital camera as one with a plastic lens. It is better to buy a digital camera with a 100% glass lens for the best pictures. You should also look for the best buy digital camera packages with the most RAM that you can afford. The more RAM the camera has means that it can store more pictures and does not require downloading or erasing them as often. When you are evaluating the best buy digital camera offers you need to compare optical, as opposed to digital, zoom capabilities. This is one of the most frequently used features of most digital cameras and you need to be sure that you have the capability to take the type of close-up shots that you want to. Another issue that needs to be considered is whether the best buy digital camera offer actually includes the accessories that you require. If you find that you are going to have to purchase additional cables and software to be able to connect your digital camera to your computer then it is not going to be the best buy digital camera that you thought it was.

Finally, ensure that you have accounted for any shipping costs before you make your final decision over which best buy digital camera you purchase. A lot of unscrupulous retailers will advertise a price for a best buy digital camera but then charge high shipping costs. From Computer and Gadget Sites.

The Hidden Superpowers Of Your Mind

2009-04-07T22:20:00.000-07:00

The mind is an infinite wonder. It has the fantastic ability to transmute your desires into their physical counterparts. You can do anything that your mind can conceive, as long as you have the belief and will power to back it up.

Take the case of cancer patients who were given placebo pills. These are just plain pills that have no healing capabilities. So how did they get well?

The power came from their thoughts. They were told that these pills contain the highest amounts of cancer-fighing ingredients which can effectively cure them in a matter of days.

See how powerful your mind is?

They believed that their health will be restored. They have registered in their minds that these pills will cure them of their illnesses. In the process, the belief embedded within their subconscious came to reality.

So how can you use your mind to achieve your dreams? One of the most effective ways is to use the "as if" principle.

Act as if you are the person you want to be. Act as if you are already in possession of whatever you long to have.

So what do you want to be? You want to be a lawyer, doctor, athlete, or newscaster? Think, act, and feel like one. You'll be much closer to your goal if you're constantly intact with your objective. Be obsessed with your dream. It doesn't mean that if you want to be Superman you'll fly out the window. Not a good idea!

It's not enough that you act like one, but you have to actually ACT. Do what needs to be done. You might get so lost in your fantasy dreamworld that you've forgotten to take some action. Let your visions encourage and motivate you to actualize your purpose.

The problem with the people of the modern world is that they are too preoccupied with worries, anxieties, and negative emotions. As a result, they are adversely affecting their state of health.

White lies have become prevalent nowadays in order to ease the burdens or to persuade others to do things that they thought are unattainable.

There was once a weightlifter who couldn't lift weights in excess of 300 lbs. So his coach devised a clever idea and told him that the barbell he has to carry weighs only 300 lbs. With all his might, the weightlifter managed to put it above his head. After he puts it down, the coach told him that he has just lifted 350 lbs. of weight! It's all in the mind!

A famous person once said, "Whenever you think you can or you can't, you're right."

If you think you are poor, then you are; unless you properly condition your thoughts to the positive mindset. I know it's hard to think rich if your environment is not conducive to such way of thinking. Use your imagination then! Visualize your house to be a mansion, your old car to be a limousine,...Well you get the picture.

There is absolutely no limit with what the mind can achieve. But you have to combine belief, will power, and action with positive thinking in order to arrive at your intended destination.

Elvis Presley.....The (my) Legend

2009-04-07T22:09:00.000-07:00

Elvis Aaron Presley(January 8, 1935 – August 16, 1977; middle name sometimes written Aron)a was an American singer, actor, and musician. A cultural icon, he is commonly known simply as "Elvis", and is also sometimes referred to as "The King of Rock 'n' Roll" or "The King".

In 1954, Presley began his career as one of the first performers of rockabilly, an uptempo fusion of country and rhythm and blues with a strong back beat. His novel versions of existing songs, mixing "black" and "white" sounds, made him popular—and controversial—as did his uninhibited stage and television performances. He recorded songs in the rock and roll genre, with tracks like "Hound Dog" and "Jailhouse Rock" later embodying the style. Presley had a versatile voiceand had unusually wide success encompassing other genres, including gospel, blues, ballads and pop. To date, he has been inducted into four music halls of fame.

In the 1960s, Presley made the majority of his 31 movies—most of which were poorly reviewed but financially successful musicals. In 1968, he returned to live music in a television special, and performed across the U.S., notably in Las Vegas. Throughout his career, he set records for concert attendance, television ratings and recordings sales. He is one of the best-selling and most influential artists in the history of music. Health problems, drug dependency and other factors led to his death at age 42.

His History was:
April 25, 1912 Gladys Love Smith April 10, 1916 Vernon Elvis Presley June 1933 Gladys Smith and Vernon Presley are married.

January 8, 1935 Tupelo, Mississippi Gladys Presley gives birth to twin sons, Jessie Garon & Elvis Aaron. Sadly, Jessie is stillborn.

1935-1948 Elvis grows up within a close-knit, working class family in Tupelo, Miss. Elvis attends the Assembly of God Church with his family where the music register deeply within him. Other influences upon Elvis include black bluesmen in the neighborhood and country music radio programs enjoyed by his family.

1946 Elvis' parents cannot afford a bicycle that Elvis wants, so Gladys talks him into accepting a guitar instead.

Late 1948 Elvis and his parents pack their belongings in a trunk strapped to the roof of their 1939 Plymouth and move to Memphis , Tennessee in search of a better life.

1948-1953 Elvis and his parents live in public housing in a poor neighborhood. Elvis works at various jobs to help support his parents. He's also a regular audience member at the all-night white and black gospel sings that are held downtown.

June 3, 1953 Elvis graduates from Humes High School.

1953 Elvis works at Parker Machinists Shop after graduation. That summer he visits The Memphis Recording Service, home of the Sun Recordings, where he makes a demo of "My Happiness" and "That's When Your Heartaches Begin" for a cost of about $4.00.

Summer 1954 Elvis teams up with local musicians Scotty Moore (guitar) and Bill Black (bass) to create a sped-up version of Arthur "Big Boy" Crudup's "That's All Right."
