Christmas Countdown

Category: Lifestyle / Family
The holidays bring back such wonderful memories for me. But it's not
the gifts I received that I remember so much, as the feelings of
anticipation and excitement I felt waiting for the glorious
day to arrive. Back then, I thought the presents under the
tree is what made Christmas so magical. Now I know otherwise.
As I think about this, I want to teach my children to understand and
recognize the true spirit of Christmas. I know they feel just as I

By Barrett Niehus

Arguably, the most difficult part of the sales process is locating and qualifying a sales lead. This difficulty is compounded by gatekeepers, personal assistants, and all of those individuals that stand between you and the potential decision maker. However, through a few creative techniques, and by involving the prospect early in the sales process, leads can be qualified, prepared, and closed with little ... read more
Why You're Better Off Creating a Free E-mail Workshop than a Free E-book
Author: Shery Ma Belle Arrieta

Category: Marketing / Site Promotion
Today, free e-books are a dime a dozen.
Too many people are creating free e-books that tell you the
same thing. Worse, most of them are trying to sell you
something or are just trying to make you click on their
affiliate links so they can make money off you.
Most free e-books contain articles you've seen dozens of
times on other web sites or on popular article announcement

Why Do Trees, Frogs and People Exist

WHY DO TREES, FROGS AND PEOPLE EXIST?
Its a miracle that we are here at all. Our very best researches tell us that the whole world has been going down the tubes from the very beginning. Its true. As far as we can tell from examining processes that we can understand, the whole of existence is sliding into formlessness. This can be demonstrated by thinking of a snooker table with all the balls set up in their initial pattern. The cue ball is struck and all the coloreds are scattered. If three ... read more

When you were at school your teachers, unknowingly, did you a disservice by only revealing half the truth about the world. The consequences of imperfect knowledge are truly devastating, as you will learn.
Welcome to a different type of lesson. An orthodox school curriculum assumes that the world is explainable. To be understandable, the world has to be comprised of chains of causes and effects. You know the kind of thing: this causes that, that causes the other, the other causes ... read more

TWO FAIRY TALES REVEAL THE SECRET OF LIFE

Society has been called a melting pot. This, I think, is an accurate description. But what is a melting pot? I imagine a pot full of some solid substance that has undergone a transformation into a liquid state. In the latter condition, large and small bubbles are appearing unpredictably at the surface. They inflate and then pop. The initial behavior of the solid is governed by the interaction of its adjacent parts occurring under the scientific laws of predictability. However, ... read more

THE FATE OF PUBLIC ENEMY NUMBER ONE
We live in a world of patterns. But, according to science, patterns are unlikely. Any patterns that do occur are described as chance events that become quickly reabsorbed into a pervading trend towards formlessness or featurelessness. You can test this easily. Take several coins and pile them up, one on top of the other, on the palm of your hand. You will observe a 'cylinder' of coins - a recognizable pattern. Now toss them on the ground.

The Joy of the Lord

JOY OF THE LORD
The word means different things to different people.
Is it simply an emotion or feeling? Do we only feel
joy when life seems to be going good, when our
circumstances are favorable? Or is there something
more? I'd like to explore what the Word of God says
about this topic.
Psalm 16:11 says "Thou will show me the path of life,
in Thy presence is fullness of joy, at Thy right hand
there are pleasures for evermore."

CHINCHILLAS
You may wish to consider a chinchilla. They are in
the rodent family, (but it doesn't seem that way).
Chins have incredible velvety fir, and they resemble
a chubby squirrel with micky mouse type ears. They
are nocturnal, although they do get up and play a
lot during the day. Chins are very smart and playful,
and I'm told can be trained. They are also very clean,
so their cage area doesn't tend to stink as many do.
I got my first pair of chinchillas, as adults, a
