Creativity is no more just a buzzword. It is just what makes the world go. Think of all the creativity that gave rise to inventions. From using a blade to landing on the moon have all been made possible because of the wonderful ability – creativity. It is looking at a concept/idea/perception in an entirely new dimension.

We are categorized as ‘Right’ brained when we display a good range of creativity. The right brain qualities involve imagination, risk taking, creativity, artistic abilities, highly philosophical orientation, etc. Creative people display certain common traits. They display the profile of risk takers, rebellious, absent-minded, humorous, extremely focused, preoccupied, determined, and so on.

As different from artistic creativity, which is an inborn flair for imaginative self-expression, technical creativity addresses the issues confronting our daily lives. We could approach a problem or a situation in a totally different way to discover new solutions to tackling it.

Although creativity is an essential trait that every human being is endowed with, we scarcely exploit this innate ability in us. We can tap into our creative skills by using ‘programmed thinking’ methods such as Attribute Listing, Morphological Analysis and Reframing Matrix, to finding solutions. These methods involve unique mixing of properties, components and elements to ultimately explore the practical viability of such combinations.

The other well-known method is employing ‘lateral thinking’ methods as Brainstorming, Random Input and Provocation. It is consciously breaking free from the familiar thinking patterns to allow new ways of perceiving things. Random Input can serve as a starting point when you get stuck. It is using concrete nouns from unrelated fields for connecting one thinking pattern to another.

Provocation deliberately uses illogical, crazy and wild ideas for generating ideas. The basic aspect of lateral thinking is suspending judgment and criticism to give ideas and concepts a free rein. Employing all these different methods can greatly improve your creative skills.

A simple and an effective technique, which greatly facilitates the full use of all the creative method is Mind Map. Be it Attribute Listing or Morphological Analysis or Reframing Matrix, Mind Maps are an immensely useful tool for exploring these methods. Since Mind Mapping technique uses non-linear method, it serves as an elementary tool for creativity, turning the entire process into a simple and highly effective procedure.

As the essence of Mind Mapping is to allow a free and full flow of thoughts and associations, the method in itself stimulates creativity, by bringing all our sub conscious thoughts to the fore. It digs deep into our dormant thoughts and brings them to the surface through use of associations and related links. By including colors, pictures, dimensions, symbols, etc., it taps into the unconscious mind using the language of symbols, pictures, etc.

Mind Mapping indeed is the shortest route to enhancing your creative abilities. Using them constantly and applying them under a variety of situations will help in enhancing your creative thinking capabilities.

Cardio is one of the big three in the game of changing your body, the way I look at it there is diet, cardio and weights. The diet is self explanatory, the cardio is to burn calories before and after the cardio workout and weights are to create more muscle which automatically needs more calories just to maintain.

I will try in the future to add info on individual types of cardio training but for now just want to outline how, when and what kind of exercise counts. Firstly any time that you do 20 minutes or more exercise that does not hurt your muscles I consider it a cardio workout so examples would be biking, walking, running or even sports such as Tennis or Golf or Ballroom dancing. I try to make sure that I do some kind of cardio every day just to get my blood flowing and to get away from other distractions such as TV or computers. Another important thing to try to do is to change up your cardio from day to day just for variety more than anything.

The best time to get a cardio workout is in the morning. I myself ride a bike to work 25 minutes each way in the morning and afternoon and one of the main reasons that I like this is that when you have a workout of any kind in the morning it will raise your metabolism for 12 hours afterward, now most of the calories that you burn would likely be during the workout by I know that I feel better for hours after my ride compared to a non riding day. Here is a breakdown of the calories consumed during some activity; it is OK to just compare them more than trying at this point to deduct them from your caloric intake per day.

One thing to remember when you are doing your daily cardio workouts is to still eat a good diet and not to skimp on meals. The best way to look at your cardio workouts is that they are an opportunity to improve your fitness and as you get into a good workout schedule you will likely find that you are losing weight anyway. Your goal should be to lose one to three pounds a week and by doing cardio once or twice a day this should be an easy goal to reach

A new generation of betters should have spotted the phrase “offshore sports betting” recently, though some may not be totally assured what that conveys. A foreign gaming website essentially operates outside of the legal power of a given country or it could also be an internet based sports betting web site which bases its file servers inside a nation where computer accessible sports gambling is not presently illicit. In short then, it’s best described as a sports gambling site running extraneous to the nation of the consumer. Live gambling internet sites are now governed by three organizations. They are the OSGA (the Offshore Gaming Association), IGC (Interactive Gaming Council) and finally the Fidelity Trust Gaming Association FTGA.

Eagles release veteran LB Dhani Jones

The OSGA is in fact a nonpartisan watch-dog federation which keeps checks on the current offshore gambling business in an effort to also present sports gaming lovers an easy way to to readily find acclaimed organizations to play games on, without concern. The Offshore Gaming Association seeks to guard consumer’s rights, moreover they don’t levy any affiliation fees. The OSGA are a well-qualified and impartial third party agency who express non-biased information, based around customer feedback, unprejudiced studies, discussions, inside advice and additionally provides inside intelligence.

The IGC is a non commercially driven organization. The administration has been created to provide a forum for concerned individuals to discuss current subjects and also to progress communal matters in the multinational interactive gambling industry, to ensure honorable and also competent industry codes and routines which raise customer certainty in internet gaming products and benefits, and also to work as the trade’s generic strategy consultant and in addition the Interactive Gaming Council offers an info hub.

The Interactive Gaming Council have built up a name for upholding honesty, fairness and believability via the code of conduct it establishes, and its allure to concerns of proper practise. The IGC monitors offshore gaming through employing an extraordinary ten-point code of behavior not to mention bills gambling businesses fees to feature the council’s logo. Frustrated gaming fans can additionally mention their issues to the Interactive Gaming Council.

The Fidelity Trust Gaming Association has been set up in order to present a benchmark which will reform the transactions of machine-accessible gambling trading operations. The IGC proposerealize that doing business with respected enterprises, they can found a membership of the fairest and most competent online gaming companies in the world at large. These are establishments that manage the procedures exercised by computer accessible sports gambling and which should serve to take the edge off any apprehensions felt by cynics. Networked sports betting web sites are nowadays actually safe, now that private details are not requested also the rewards and the gaming odds should be usually as equal and honest as a common Vegas-type bet. They lessen travel time, but nevertheless retain the ethos of a Vegas-style gaming internet site, but today you can wager at your computer.

The idea for this month’s newsletter came from an unlikely encounter: I recently had lunch with a new friend named Rick Rockwell. You may remember him as the bachelor from the first-ever reality TV show, “Who Wants to Marry a Multimillionaire?”

During our meeting, Rick described some of the knowledge he gained from doing the show, along with a few of past his experiences in business, ethics, and of course, primetime romance. The stories were fantastic, the drama was riveting, and as Rick detailed his adventures with great humor, what impressed me most was what he wasn’t saying.

You see, at no time did he dwell on the misfortune of not finding the love of his life or the way the media portrayed him. Instead, he said something along the lines of, “You know, Greg,! short and simply put, our circumstances, good or bad, are a direct result of our own actions, and ultimately, the only thing in which we are in true control of is our own (Attitude) towards them.”

To which I agreed and responded, “You’re absolutely right. We’re are all dealt obstacles as well as good fortune in our lives-that’s simply a part of life itself. Yet it’s how we handle the obstacles that shows the world our true character as a person.”

Rick and I sat there, just reflecting on the impact of that message for a bit until the idea of this newsletter popped into my head. I said, “You know, Rick, when it’s all said and done, the bottom line is . . .

“We are exactly where we choose to be.”

Now, this is where I put the question to you, the reader: Isn’t that true for all of us? Isn’t that true for all those around us?

I’m sure you know people (or perhaps even yourself at times) who blame the world for their setbacks and failures, then simply! credit “luck” for those who succeed around them. Yet, when we really examine our own lives, we see that we are exactly where we choose to be at any given moment.

>We are a product of our own environment because we are the ones creating the environment we are in.<

Have you ever noticed people taking negative actions like hanging out at the local dive bar every day after work, spending all their money on liquor and fun, and then complaining that they’re broke and can never catch a “break”? Have you ever noticed people who confide to their family and friends that they can’t find love, yet they never leave the house or put themselves in situations (or on TV) to meet new people? But haven’t you also noticed people who surround themselves with positive influences, work hard, are accountable, plan for the future, and “create” their own breaks?

In my new friend’s case, he was and is simply seeking love. What he got, however, was something completely different (! he was slandered in the press). While he admits that he put himself in that situation to begin with, he thrives on the fact that he took such a bold chance before anyone else did in history. Would he change the way it turned out if he had the power to do so? Of course. But he wouldn’t change the opportunity itself because he was the one who put himself there in the first place…the bottom line, he took a chance and stood by the outcome.

The moral of this story (or newsletter, in this case) is presented in the form of a challenge. Sit down and ask yourself this question: “What is right, and what do you wish to be different in your life?”

You might want to take a minute or two to make a list. Take accountability for all those things, both the good and the bad; for after all, you created them. Then simply keep doing the things that are right, and work on a strategy to create new (positive) actions to stop doing the things that are not.

It would be complete insa! nity to continue punching yourself in the face and then complain to the world that you always have a black eye…now wouldn’t it?

As you work on your list, keep this mind: You are handed two major tools in life-a hammer for building and a shovel for digging. If you ever find yourself digging a hole deeper and deeper and wishing you could get out of it, just stop digging! Because, when it’s all said and done . . .

We are exactly where we choose to be.

Do you know what the Child Trust Fund is?Not many UK parents markedly

modest number of parents seem to know about the fact that all babies get a free £250 voucher from the government to put. This vouchermay be invested in any one of threesorts of CTF account, Stakeholder – a shares-based account that swapsinto cash, a savings account or a shares account. It is a superb chance to prepare financial requirements of a child

Scottish Friendly is an authorised provider of the Child Trust Fund Voucher. The Government is eager for the public at large to have access to Stakeholder accounts and this is the form of account that we are supplying. This means that:

• Investments are sent into Scottish Friendly’s Managed Growth Fund, which aims to provide good growth potential
• An investment is made partly in shares to get the benefit of potentially higher returns over 18 years,compared to a cash deposit account (although the value of shares candecrease as well as go up whereas capital would be protected in a deposit account)
• It is available with a low ‘Stakeholder’ funds charge of just 1.5% per year
• When attaining the age of 18 the young person will get a lump sum, entirely free of Capital Gains and Income Tax under prevailing law
• It is very affordable – additional payments can be placed in the account from only £10

One of the great attractions of the Child Trust Fund is that anyone – parents, grandparents, aunts and uncles, friends – may add to the Fund to a top limit of £1,200 per year to help augment the child’s Fund (once added, this money cannot be withdrawn).

What this means is that our Stakeholder account offers a good balance between potentially high returns and a reduced level of risk. There’s also the additional assurance that our account complies with the Government’s stakeholder criteria. Nevertheless this doesn’t mean that returns are assured or that Stakeholder accounts are appropriate for everyone. Remember that the value of shares in the Managed Growth Fund (where your Child Trust Fund money is held) can go down as well as go up and is not guaranteed.

Only children born on or after 1st September 2002 are entitled to start up a Child Trust Fund. If you have above-mentioned date who are not allowed you could look at saving for them with a Child Bond – it’s a tax-free savings plan intended for long-term growth. There can be no doubt that investing for a child is a sensible means of preparing for hard times that may lie ahead.

MEMORIAL DAY PRICES…THE COST OF FREEDOM By Karen A. Lech

Spring is here (sort of) and soon to be here is Summer – and with these much awaited Seasons, come the glorious holidays that are part of summer celebrations, Memorial Day, and 4th of July! I look so forward to these holidays, though I do not consider Memorial Day a day to go out and party. According to the World Book Encyclopedia “Memorial Day, also called Decoration Day, is a patriotic holiday in the United States. It is a day to honor Americans who gave their lives for their country”. As a child, I recall it was a somber day at our house. The end of the school year was near, and we kids were chomping at the bit, eager for summer vacation. The Sisters who taught us at St. Thecla School, taught us to remember our soldiers and think about what these men and women gave up for their country – families who were without fathers, mothers, brothers, sisters, uncles, cousins and so on.

I grew up on the Northwest side of Chicago, right near the borderline of the town of Niles and the city, about two blocks south of St. Adalbert’s cemetery. My grandfather, a WWI veteran would take me to the cemetery on Memorial Day. There, a ceremony complete with Twenty-One Gun salute took place about 10:00 a.m. It was a serious day. My grandpa (he with his shrapnel-filled legs) and I would stand and watch the ceremony, and I would watch the tears roll down his cheeks. It was not a day of partying, boating, etc. that was something “other people” did. I distinctly recall, that MEMORIAL DAY PRICES…THE COST OF FREEDOM Karen A. Lech 815/675-6791

there were many who would travel to St. Adalbert’s from various areas of the city (and beyond) by car, by bus and walking, packing a picnic lunch to be eaten after the ceremony and decorating gravesites before heading home. Flowers and flags were placed with honor on graves of their beloved heroes. The crowd observed the somber soldiers and Veterans while “Taps” was played, hands over hearts, hats off, and sing “The Star Spangled Banner”. The echoing booms of the salute shattered the air with “bullets” that fired our hearts with remembrance of lives lost and appreciation. This was Remembrance Day, Decoration Day. . .Memorial Day. These sights and sounds branded a memory on the tender part of my mind, an impression like a hand print in wet cement, hardening forever the values of patriotism, love of country, respect.

Today finds many Americans celebrating Memorial Day as the “beginning” of the summer season, a day to relax, and a weekend to get away. The Memorial Day Sales are now of other paraphernalia of life, not only flags and wreaths to place on graves. Today also finds the United States in war time. Today also finds our fellow Americans on foreign soil, dying while serving their country, preserving freedom, freedom to go out in our cars, boats, freedom to fly “friendly”skies, freedom to enjoy a holiday that has been observed in the United States since Civil War times. MEMORIAL DAY PRICES…THE COST OF FREEDOM Karen A. Lech 815/675-6791

This coming Memorial Day, May 31st, 2004, is a special day in my home. My twin daughters will turn the magic age of thirteen. They informed me they have to attend a Memorial Day ceremony at school on their birthday, as they are band members. I will tell them what an honor it is, on their birthday(s) to participate in helping people in our community give tribute to so many. We will talk about our soldiers overseas who are celebrating their birthdays in a much different way, and some who may be celebrating their birth into Heaven this very day, far away from home and family. We will leave the ceremony more thoughtful, more considerate, and more respectful of our fellow man. I hope this Memorial Day will imprint on their minds how fortunate we are to be Americans, and how very dear the cost of freedom is. MEMORIAL DAY PRICES…THE COST OF FREEDOM Karen A.

Many of the patients who received zimmer durom recall applied in their hip cup replacement surgeries are finding that there are negative ramifications that far exceed the normal expectations for recovery. These individuals are feeling a lot of uncalled-for pain for longer time periods, needing a revision operations and enlarged medical costs, and losing income by being unable to work at their normal occupations. Although Zimmer Holdings, Inc. is claiming that that their implant is not defective and say it is not their fault for the faililng hip implants, some people are filing cases against them and getting settlements.

During October, 2008 Zimmer declared that it had set aside $47.5 million to compensate for lawsuits filed against them. Many physicians are not so sure that the zimmer hip implant is is not the issue like the company has stated. In fact, when Zimmer provided on-line coaching to docs in order to teach them what they said were more precise techniques for executing the implant surgical procedure, approximately half of the doctors refused to take part. Thus, the whole situation proceeds to be bothersome for everyone involved, but none more than the hundreds of poor people who are needing a revision surgical operation due to the issues with their implant coming loose in the socket.

These tormented unfortunate people definitely merit some aid and compensation which is the main reason product liability attorneys are telling them to file lawsuits. hip implants recall has been paying some of these claims, too. All The Same, even if the payoff they are being offered sounds like alot to them, in most cases patients are settling too fast and with no provision put in place for ongoing problems if pain returns. If they don’t wait to find out what an actual case is worth, individuals might find themselves paying thousands of dollars out of pocket when further complications return.

For anyone who believes they probably have a claim against Zimmer needs to start an investigation into it. If you imagine you could qualify, you should call a lawyer to verify this info. Look for a lawfirm that operates nationally and specializes in litigation against faulty medical devices. This law firm has gone so far as to setup a special division to uncover the details and handle the claims against Zimmer and obtain nice sized settlements for their customers.

If your orthopedic Dr. tells you that youre going to need revision operation to fix your Zimmer Durom hip replacement device, get in touch with an attorney as soon as humanly possible.

Remember back in January when you laid out your plans for the New Year? How are those plans coming? Ask yourself honestly, “How am I doing? What have I been able to do and what have I been procrastinating on?” There are several great books on this topic that offer tips and thoughts to keep you in motion. One you might enjoy: Rhinoceros Success by Scott Alexander.1 This is a funny, short and easy-to-read book that will inspire any action-oriented person to get moving! Scott Alexander has a creative approach to get you ready to charge forward into action!

The author makes the premise that there are two kinds of people in the world, “Cows” and “Rhinos.” You get to choose which one you’d like to be.

The fact that you are reading this article suggests that you are already rhino material! Rhinos are the people who charge ahead and don’t let things get them down. They get things done and see the possibilities even in adverse circumstances. Obstacles are merely hurdles to break through, not road blocks that immobilize. Now realistically, every rhino is going to have some “cow” days; the trick is to be a cow as little as possible, because rhinos simply get more done and are more successful. Cows have a different purpose altogether and are ok with mediocre, “good enough” and settling for living in fenced-in pastures, chewing their cud. I am not going to focus on cows, because the rhino is the one who is making things happen and moving forward through the jungle of life!

Strategies for living your purpose and expanding your awareness for life, people and the opportunities of each day

1. Rhino Mind-set: a. Positive Self-Talk. Scott Alexander talks about daily reading a focus statement. He suggests: “I am a rhinoceros. I have a damn-[WRB1]the-torpedoes spirit! I am full of energy and I can’t wait to get up in the morning to start charging!” Now, write your big picture goal and get moving!

b. Expect Torpedoes. These are the obstacles and negative things that inevitably discourage, distract or serve to get you off track. Expect them and commit to not letting them knock you over. Develop a tough, thick skin so you can keep charging. These are traits like confidence, endurance, discipline, focus, and determination.

2. Rhino Behavior: a. Action is essential. Pick the most important thing you need to get done each day and do it first, before the smaller and more seductive things (e.g., checking e-mail, cleaning, personal calls, coffee breaks). Also, write the four other key things you need to get done each day, and focus on doing those. Make it your goal to accomplish these five key items every day.

b. CHARGE! Rhinos are in the business of “charging” forward. They have a target in mind (the goal) and are focused and going for it. Since you have already developed your plan, you can be confident in your charge. Go for the next step and get it done. Success happens one step at a time, whether the goal is large or small. Whatever you do, do something, stay in action and keep moving forward.

1 (Laguna Hills, CA: Rhino Press, 1980)

Can you name one negative person with a successful life? Every successful person has had either a very positive person behind them or they had a very positive attitude. We need to start instructing or teaching our children the values of goal setting and planting or having a positive attitude. So many parents don’t present a positive outlook or instill a can do attitude.

We have so many problem finders. We need more problem solvers. It’s just a matter of how you look at it. The negative and the positive approach. It is so easy for so many to sit back and say,
“whoa as me”. Those are the negative peoples that fall deeper and deeper into failure.

A positive person will accept the situation and go right into solving the problem. The whiner is to busy complaining to look for a solution for their problem. They will usually blame everyone else for their problems or troubles. Every single success story had obstacles that had to be overcome. Successful people just solve the problem and move onto the next. The whiner fails because he doesn’t believe he can solve the problem or succeed. They just give up. That’s where the BIG SIN is!

You stop and think, look back in your life. I bet you can find times where something came up and you said NO PROBLEM and you solved or fixed it. Then other times you just said awe what do I do what do I do? Then the minute you got back on the horse you solved the problem in no time.
I think it’s a Universal Law. Success comes from belief and action and failure from doubt and inaction.
If you do nothing, nothing will come from it. If you act upon it you will find an answer.

This is where we need to start teaching or instilling within our young people that anything can
be accomplished with positive thought and action. Even a mountain of dirt can be moved one shovel at a time. Sometimes some of us give our children and young people excuses so they don’t keep trying.
Instead of telling them them can do it they can figure it out, we let them slide on many things that they actually could have down. So instead of making them stick to it or at least saying okay lets do it together then. You just let it slide.

The kids that are inspired to do well usually will. There are always exceptions to the rule. The kids
that are slammed or knocked all the time, you can’t do it, you won’t do it. You will never be anything.
Most the time they won’t. Now then again there are the ones that do turn things around, but it is because they became a positive person themselves for some reason. But it still goes back to being a positive person. So important to understand Attitude is success or failure.
