By James F. Burns Sex in the garden? What the …..? Did I go to the wrong place? No, no, no! Not the kind of sex in a garden that you would expect from some movie inspired by a D. H. Lawrence novel. No, what we are talking about is plant reproduction. So, now that I have your attention……………. How do you get new plants at a low cost, and have fun doing it? Well, it is known as propagation.There are two forms: Sexual Asexual The first method is the one we all know, you take a bag of seed, learn all you can about seedbed preparation, plant, water nourish and then watch them flourish. Simple, straightforward and rewarding on levels that non gardeners cannot understand. This process can be used to produce large quantities of non woody plants like grasses, vegetables, and flowers, and can be done in a variety of ways, from intensive greenhouse culture, to tilling the soil, and dropping in the seed. But, what if we wanted to produce a quantity of slower growing woody, or herbaceous plants, say, some extra crepe myrtles for a fence row? What would be the best method? It would take a long time to produce them from seed, and the results would rarely be consistent. How can we speed the process up and get the consistency (uniformity) we are looking for? That is where the second method comes in. Asexual reproduction can be used with the vegetable and flower types of plants as well. The method usually involves removing a portion of a stem from a plant, and inserting the larger end, that is the end closest to the base of the plant into a planting medium. There are other, more tedious methods in use, such as “tissue cultures” which involve taking a few plant cells, and growing them in a petri dish like situation, but that is a science all to itself. Although these two methods may seem worlds away, they are actually the same method, just done at different levels. For our purposes “cuttings will do nicely. You will need a “Mother Plant”, that is a plant that you want to “clone” and don’t mind chopping into pieces. You will also need a “rooting medium” and there are a lot of different thoughts on this. I like using a mix of peat and sand, which is about three quarters peat, and one quarter sand, but you can use the media you prefer. It needs to retain enough moisture to allow the cutting to never dry out, but not so much that it rots, moisture is critical. Depending on the difficulty that the plant has in producing “adventitious roots”, You may need a little IBA, indol butaryic acid, or rooting compound. The instructions for its use are usually found on the label. Some plants produce quickly and easily from mere untreated cuttings, such as willows. Some are nearly impossible outside the most extreme, perfect conditions such as deciduous oaks. Make sure that you have a way to keep them watered frequently, the soil cannot completely dry, or you will lose all your hard work.Speaking of work, I have to do some now, so I will have to do this in at least two parts. Come back next time, for the second part of our continuing mini series, “Desperate homegardeners” or Sex in the garden.

By Lara Lopez Time was when a smile, a wink, or a touch on the arm was the signal that you were interested in someone. How do you flirt online without seeming too forward or anxious for attention? Here are a few suggestions: Respond to emails promptly. Finding a personal email in your inbox is like getting a valentine, no matter what time of year it is. So don’t turn prospective suitors into nail biters. If you receive an email, reply right away. Your match will know you’re paying attention, and that alone will make him or her feel special. Remember that a little bit goes a long way. Don’t flood your match’s inbox with pages of spam type jokes and irrelevant anecdotes. Keep it short and sweet very sweet. A comment like “Nice abs” or “Cute smile” is short and effective. Even though you’re dying to dive in and chat all day, show a little restraint. Better to leave him or her wanting more than wishing you had given it a rest. Ask an “innocent” question. Ask if he has any special plans for the upcoming weekend or if she’s doing anything on Saturday. Not only will you find out more about what your match does with his or her free time, you may be able to find an opening for a seemingly accidental run in. Hint, but don’t tell all. Don’t spill the beans all at once. Mention that you’re still unpacking your overnight bag and shaking the sand out of your shoes from last weekend’s great adventure. What adventure? Let your match wonder… and send you another email to get the scoop. Remember if someone sends you a Wink, or another built in way of expressing casual interest in your profile, take it for what it is, casual interest. If you’re looking for someone who is really serious, wait for a thoughtful and friendly email message that shows someone taken some time and effort on your behalf. Greetings and Salutations Simply saying “Hello” and “Goodbye” is important in email because you can’t see the individual in person. Greetings convey courtesy and politeness that will get you off on a good foot. That said, you shouldn’t say “Hello” and “Goodbye,” exactly. A light and casual tone works best in email dating communications: “Hi’ or “Hi there” or even “How are ya?” work better, as do “Later” or “Ciao.” Conveying Emotion People who are new to the Internet carry around the impression that email is mechanical and can’t carry nuances of emotion. Not so. You can express feelings that make the difference between a turn on and a turn off. If you’re in a bad mood, you don’t need to let your mood intrude on your attempts to attract someone rather than turn him or her away. Even if you are preoccupied, respond gracefully. Use the phrase hope to hear from you soon at the end of a message as a clear invitation that you are interested and you want to learn more about the person you’re emailing. Save that stiff business like “sincerely” for your work related correspondence. To end your letter on a flirtatious note, turn up the heat with a “yours,” or “wish I were saying this in person”. A light, casual, and friendly tone works with dating correspondence, not a formal or heavy handed touch.

By Kris Bierek Are you one of the many people who feel frustrated because you think you eat well and exercise regularly, but you just can’t seem to lose weight? If so, a food journal is a great tool to help you reach your weight loss goals. It will help to determine any patterns in your eating habits, it will force you to be accountable for what you eat, and it will help you to see where you are consuming your “hidden” calories. The first thing I always tell people when they start to keep a food journal is to write down EVERY bite they put in their mouths. When most people think back over their day and what they had to eat, they go straight to their meals. It’s amazing, though, how all of those calories you consume in between meals add up. You might think that one little piece of chocolate doesn’t count, so you don’t need to write it down, but that one little piece of chocolate every afternoon can add up to quite a few calories over the course of a week. Many mothers of young children tend to finish what their kids leave on their plates, but a chicken nugget here and three bites of macaroni and cheese there really add up! Be sure to write it down right after you eat so you don’t forget. It’s also important to be very specific when recording what you eat. For example, don’t just write “turkey sandwich” for lunch. Instead, write down “4 ounces turkey breast and 1 slice Swiss cheese on whole wheat, with mustard, tomato and lettuce.” The mayonnaise on your sandwich, butter on your baked potato, and creamer in your coffee may be contributing empty calories and fat to your diet that are easy to cut. And speaking of that coffee, don’t forget to write down what you drink. Your mid-morning mocha latte or your glass of wine with dinner contain calories, too! Another thing to include in your food journal is the time you eat each meal or snack. Then, when you look back over your notes you can determine if you have any “trouble times.” If you tend to eat junk every day around 4:00, then you might want to start having a healthy snack each day before that time, before you get too hungry and grab whatever is in sight. Or, if you see that you get the munchies every night while watching TV, you are probably eating out of boredom. When you know that is a problem for you, it’s easier to distract yourself. Keeping a food journal can make you accountable for what you eat. I know that I am much less likely to have a big piece of cheesecake if I know I have to write it down! It will also make it much easier for you to determine what your eating patterns are and where you can cut calories that will make all the difference in your weight loss!

By Amy-Jo Strutt In some cases, no matter how hard we exercise or how much dieting we do, we still cant seem to shed those fat deposits on are back, hips, thighs or abdomens. This is why more and more people are turning to liposuction to help get rid of that stubborn, excess fat. It is not intended to be a weight loss procedure but rather a cosmetic treatment to help people look and feel better about themselves. Liposuction is a process to remove excess fat deposits that cause lumps and bulges. A thin suction tube is inserted into the body through a very small incision. The tube literally vacuums fat out of the body in the desired areas. Tumescent liposuction, a relatively new procedure is growing in popularity as I will explain why in more detail. The most popular area of the body that both men and women seek the removing of fat deposits includes the chin, hips, abdomen, thighs, lower legs and knees. Men also request treatment on enlarged male breasts because of the embarrassment they can create. There are many different forms of liposuction available but one stands out more than the others. Tumescent liposuction is a procedure that uses natural saline solution, a diluted local anesthetic as well as adrenaline. This solution is dispersed into the fat deposit. The area is locally anesthetized with an injection, therefore, a general anesthesia is not required. Patient recovery is often quicker since the patient is awake during the entire procedure. With tumescent liposuction, a smaller tube is used to remove the fat which helps reduce the amount of bleeding and bruising. Most patients are able to return to their regular routine within a few days but of course, some require a longer recovery period. The best liposuction results come with a smaller tube. Although it takes longer to treat a patient, the smaller vacuum tube leaves smaller and narrower ridges and that translates into smoother looking skin. The important thing to do if you are considering this type of procedure is to speak to your doctor first. Make sure to use a certified plastic surgeon and always complete your due diligence before proceeding.

By Marie Gordon I decided to tackle this subject because until quite recently, it was one of my biggest downfalls. I suspect that it might, and I do repeat the word might, be a problem which affects women more than men. After all, we do tend to deprive ourselves more than men, and being totally realistic, although men nowadays are much more concerned about their weight and health, they do not take it to extremes as a general rule. Women are much more susceptible to mood swings caused by hormone imbalances, and are much much more sensitive in terms of what people think of them. There are many more pressures on them to look good, or to measure up to the latest fashion trend and so on. What man I ask you would continue to read any magazine that told him that he really did not measure up, or was the wrong shape, height or weight etc. Women strive for perfection, and sadly perfection is not possible. We can only make the best of what we have!. So women go to extremes (yes we do, if we are honest with ourselves), and in pusuit of this unattainable image that we strive for, we deprive ourselves of so much that is necessary for good health. In fact if the truth were known, we often starve ourselves, which is totally fatal, and leave ourselves craving for all the things that we miss out on. The consequence of this often leads to a full blown binge! Any one who has ever been on any diet, will know all about the disasters that binge eating causes. Straight out of the window goes all the hard work that you have done to lose your excess weight. A binge strikes totally out of the blue, crumbles your resolve and leaves you feeling a total failure. Well let me tell you that you can control your impulse to binge. What it all comes down to, is how you choose to act. In other words it means controlling your behaviour. Perhaps you find as I did, that negative emotions like depression, anger, anxiety, and feelings of failure can all spark off a binge. I must stress however, that for any severe eating disorder it is always best to seek professional help! Do not despair though, there are many self help steps that you can take to prevent the occasional indulgences, and stop periodic binge eating, from becoming a habit of constant over eating. You will need to map out a plan to prevent you from starting a binge in the first place, and if you have given in to one, the steps to take to cope with the effects of the aftermath. So watch out for the triggers that can set you off on a binge! Sometimes it helps just sitting quietly by yourself, getting in touch with how you are feeling, and deciding which is the best way to cope with the temptation. You will learn that your feelings are not all that scary, it isn’t actually so terrible to have negative feelings, such as frustration, confusion, or even jealousy or hatred. We all suffer from them, and to have such feelings is certainly not unique to you. If we are not eating enough food when we are cutting down on our calories, we can find ourselves being drawn to binge eating. Your body needs a certain amount of calories just to function, so if you are constantly feeling unsatisfied and hungry, this will most likely lead to a binge. I suggest therefore, that you bulk up on plenty of vegetables, fruit and high-fiber foods, and by drinking plenty of water with your meals you will feel much fuller. In turn this should stop the desire to binge eat! When you do have a craving, sometimes it is best just to give in and indulge in a portion of what you are craving for. Otherwise, before you know it, you are eating everything else in sight, and most probably whatever it was that you were craving for as well! This in turn will make you feel absolutely lousy and a total failure. You will have tripled your calorie intake in that one binge, whereas if you had eaten what you craved for in the first place, your calorie intake would have probably been less. Remember do try and stop and analize what is triggering you into wanting to binge. Is it just that you are hungry, or are you angry, frustrated, bored or just lonely! Could your body be lacking something perhaps! The more you analize, the more you will understand yourself, and be able to cope with why and what makes you binge. Keep these five steps in mind:- 1. Determine why you want to eat so badly right now! 2. Try hard to delay your response (are you hungry because you have skipped a meal). Really take the time and think about it! 3. Try and distract yourself for about 15 minutes. If you are at home, have a shower, give yourself a manicure, (with wet nails you will find it hard to binge!) If you are at work, take a break, go for a walk, or just freshen up in the ladies room. The longer you delay the binge the more likely it is to pass. 4. Distance yourself as much as possible from temptation, and do not surround yourself with foods that you tend to binge on. 5. Decide how to handle the situation, it is up to you after all, you have the choice and it is only you that controls your behaviour. Consider what you are doing, understand why, and realize the consequences. If you have done all of the above and still gave in to temptation, “do not” I repeat “do not” feel dispirited. Just go back onto your normal eating regime and please do not beat yourself up, (what’s done is done!) Many of us can let a binge totally destroy our diet, and just keep being out of control. Please do not let that happen, forgive yourself and always try and understand the reasons why you let it happen in the first place. You will feel much better by just starting your normal eating pattern again. Look at the good qualities that you have, and also your achievements so far, and focus on them, not on the negative feelings after a binge. Keep telling yourself what a likeable and worthwhile person you really are. Do not waste another second on the negative aspects of it, just keep on being positive.

By Larry M. Lynch The warm, tropical waters off the Pacific coasts of Mexico to South America provide a treasure trove of opportunities for the catch of a lifetime. Even common food fish grow to tackle-busting size and ferocity in the teeming waters that beach Panama, Colombia and Ecuador. Theres truly something to keep every angler hookin and haulin denizens of the not-so-deep. Here are some sport favorites thatll put a smirk on your face in no time. In the article, Tropical Pacific Ocean Game Fish You Should Know you met some tropical Pacific Ocean species youre likely to encounter south of the border. These species are right there along with them south of the border too. Here are more of the Pacific Coast Posse. The common name is listed above the scientific name. Jurel or Jurelillo Caranx Caninus Commonly sizing in at 25 to 40 cm in length and weighing in at 4 to 6 pounds, Jurel can get up to 12 or more line-busting pounds. They swim in fairly large schools near the surface over areas with sandy bottoms. They are most abundant during the months of December to March and are commonly fished for using live bait fish or lead head jigs. Crab and squid will also get you action from this dark-fleshed scrapper. In South America, the fish is often smoked or salted. Burique or Cojinuda Caranx Caballus The pan-sized Burique is generally used as a bait fish. Ranging from 20 to 30 cm in length and weighing about a pound each. More abundant from May through the summer months, they can be jigged and are especially well caught at night from small boats and even canoes. Theyll hit squid, hermit crab and shrimp equally well and swim in large schools near the surface. The mouths of streams and estuaries that empty into the sea are good hot spots. Deep-fried they make a good meal on their own too. So be sure to save a couple or so to try out for yourself. Bravo Seriola Dorsalis This deep-water denizen ranges from 50 to 60 cm in length and can weigh from 15 to 25 pounds. They swim in groups of 8 to 20 fish in deep waters near shore, frequenting rocky areas adjacent to sandy bottoms. Many caught during the months of June to November using live bait of small fish or squid. An excellent eating fish, its size usually requires it to be filleted. Its good in soups and stews and the thick fillets grill nicely as well. Sharks are a natural predator of Bravo, so where theres Bravo, there are often Bull sharks. Be careful. You might want to read the article, A Shark Tale online at: http://EzineArticles.com/?id=121148 Youll see what I mean. Good luck on your next fishing trip. Prof Larry M.

By Peter Vajda, Ph.D Blame is an art form in our culture. Pointing fingers and looking “outside”, rather than “inside”, when facing unpleasant outcomes, is a sign of emotional immaturity and lack of self-responsibility. In relationship, blaming others is a lose-lose equation. The blamer remains defiant, in denial, overtly or passively aggressive and inconsiderate, while the blamed often reacts with guilt, shame, resistance, resentment, confusion, frustration, anger, and/or isolation. Blame is a red flag, devoid of genuine understanding and the real working through of conflict resolution. In a “conscious” relationship, partners are cognizant of the needs hidden in their blaming and are open to expressing these needs to one another. Blame is often an indication that the one who is blaming is crying out to have some need (or needs) met. The person who is blaming is relating as a victim and a child, challenged by feeling helpless, fearful and out of control. Blame is the way an adult “cries like a child.” It’s an attention-getting device, i.e., underneath the blame is an attempt to gain some degree of recognition, control or security. Blame is a red flag demanding a white flag of surrender from another. The “blame game” has no winner; only losers. (c) 2005, Peter G.

By Nicholas Grbin When looking for a product to sell on the internet you must apply principles of common sense. Like anything, you must apply your due diligence and research your targeted customers. If anyone makes wild claims that making a fortune on the internet is easy its probably a scam. Beware, no one can guarantee a fortune. Like anything, it takes a lot of careful planning, research, education and a lot of hard work. The truth is you can make millions of dollars online but it takes lots of work. The first thing you need to do is find your passion. Its a lot easier to develop an online business when you really love the service or product. Think of things you have a lot of knowledge about. What do people ask you about? So how do you translate your passion into a successful online business? Just focus!!! Some people love certain hobbies, others sports, some love cars and others love education. Whatever it is just stop and think. Make a list of things you like and write them down. Now youre ready to do some research. You basically need to make sure other people are interested in your passion. This is the first step. You are identifying a targetable niche market. This is critical to your success. You must study the niche market and then develop a product or service that solves peoples problems. Unfortunately, most people do this the wrong way around. They develop a product or service and then find there is no market for the service. Check out the online newsgroups, discussion boards, chat rooms and type in your keywords in Google to locate markets that relates to your passion. You also need to research your competitors and how they cater for these markets. Obviously, if there is good demand for your product or service, and few businesses catering for their needs your chances for success is high. Too many competitors or low demand means its not viable. Some keyword tools that may be useful in gauging demand are WordTracker and Yahoo Overtures Term Suggestion Tool. These internet tools assist you in researching which keywords are frequently searched by your targeted market and will identify your competition. Overture will tell you how many times words or phrases were searched in Overture in the last month. If there is already too much competition selling your product or services or not enough customers buying or searching for your keywords, then its best to find another niche market. Thats why its important to identify a targetable niche market first. Once you have identified the niche market and a product or service people want it is time to either source or develop the product or service. This is a whole new topic within itself. It is sufficient to say that you can either source the product from a wholesaler or perhaps drop ship the product. If its an information product you can write your own ebook or hire someone to write it and sell the product electronically online. Most people convert their information into PDF format or purchase software programs that convert the information into an ebook format. The next step is to write effective sales copy. Once again you can educate yourself and write the sales process yourself, or hire an expert to do this. Your sales letter must be compelling and it must address your customers problems with a solution. It has to be something they need or want. In other words, you must address the niche market and then sell them the product. Try to automate this process as best as you can. You must have good sales copy, an automated ordering system such as Pay Pal or click bank, a plan to contact customers such as email or newsletters, ads, headlines etc to attract traffic to your website. This is an ongoing process and you should be constantly testing, tracking and revising this process. Remember when you plan to succeed, you will succeed, but when you fail to plan, you will fail. Finally, use your customer base to listen to your clients. From time to time, you shouldnt be afraid to ask questions or survey your customers. This can help you do your job better. It can also lead to other niche markets as you discover their needs or other problems needing solutions. As you obtain customers, offer other products or services via your emails or newsletters. Emails are free. This is where affiliate products that are complimentary to your business can earn you backend income. All you have to do is refer your customers to other products they may be interested in and collect your commission. Your success is dependent on effective research and choosing a product or service people are searching for. All you have to do is provide it. Once you master this, there is no reason why you cant succeed! Nick Grbin is the Web Master of How you make money online!

By Steve Dimeck The main disease that is treated by Botox is called dystonia. It is involuntary contraction of muscles and can occur in the neck, arms, legs, and face. It can occur by itself or from another neurological disorder, such as Parkinson’s Disease. It can occur in only one group of muscles or all over the body. Even though this disorder was discouraging to treat, Botox has made a fairly good solution. It is also used in cases involving spasticity or muscle tightness. When the brain is damaged by a stroke, head injury, multiple sclerosis, etc., the brain may lose the ability to control and relax the muscles. Sometimes the worst thing about these types of neurological problems is the involuntary muscle tightness, which can be very painful, and which Botox can help relieve. Although most insurance companies won’t pay for it, Botox can also alleviate headaches such as migraines. Kassel states “Blumenfeld’s reported clinical experience adds to the growing evidence base supporting the clinical application of BoNT-A in a variety of headache types including migraines.” Back pain, neck pain, and excessive sweating have also been treated successfully with Botox without any side effects. The newest and most popular use of Botox is in the cosmetic industry. It is said to be the fastest growing cosmetic procedure in the industry, according to the American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (ASAPS). Even though Botox works for only two to five months, results are apparent within 24 to 48 hours, but must be repeated regularly. It is used to improve mild to severe frown lines by temporarily paralyzing the muscle so it won’t move. One procedure could cost anywhere from one hundred to four hundred dollars. It has also been found to be the best treatment for “frown” wrinkles of the brow between the eye brows, and the “crow’s feet” beside the eyes which many women are concerned about. But men also are starting to have the same concerns and are getting the procedure done. Studies have shown that the effects of Botox in males are not as significant as in females. In a scientific study by Allergan Inc., thirty days after the procedure, females showed an 84.7% improvement in frown lines where as in males the improvement was only 59.2%. The severity of the lines prior to treatment also has a large effect on the results achieved. Despite these results, men can also benefit from this cosmetic correction drug. The growing popularity with Botox has brought on an even bigger fad called “Botox Parties.” These “parties” are organized by practitioners whom buy the product in bulk and arrange get-togethers for clients receiving these treatments. This method was found to be less expensive for the patients. As in any business, volume comes with discounts in medicine also. The way these “parties” work are very simple. A group of patients are invited and mingle in a waiting area with some refreshments. One by one, they are called into a private exam room. He or she pays a fee and signs an informed consent agreement, and fifteen minutes later they are back at the party. Only about one tenth of a teaspoon is used for a typical procedure and anesthetics are rarely needed but readily available. These parties are usually by invitation only. Even though this sounds wonderful, you must be sure a qualified doctor is performing the procedure and that they are trained and qualified in cosmetic face surgery. You must also avoid alcohol and remain upright for a few hours after the procedure is done. The main concern the FDA has is that Botox has the potential to be abused. “But we’re going to see some strange aesthetic outcomes when these procedures are performed by physicians who haven’t done them before,” says Dr. Richard G. Glogau of UCLA Department of Epidemiology: School of Public Health. ASAPS has recently discovered that treatments have been dispensed in salons, gyms, hotel rooms, home-based offices, and other retail venues which could result in misuse, inappropriate dosages, unsanitary conditions, and can run the risk of improper technique. With all of the hype about Botox and all of its different uses, it surely is an impressive drug for cosmetic purposes. Although there is no chance of contracting botulism, there are a few risks with the procedure. It is important to remember to go check with your doctor before getting Botox. As with any good thing, there is a down side to the procedure. If someone has a history of peripheral motor neuropathic diseases such as amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, and neuromuscular junctional disorders such as Lambert-Eaton syndrome, then the patient should not get the procedure done according to studies done by Allergan Inc. As stated by the scientists at Allergan Inc. “There has been a case report where a patient developed aspiration pneumonia and died subsequently to the finding of dysphagia.” Therefore, it is important to take caution with new procedures. In normal cases, the safe use of Botox Cosmetic depends greatly on how the drug is stored, selection of a correct dose, and proper techniques.
