Forecast Fun

Match.com has over 8 million members in its online dating community. The service was started back in the stone age of the internet, in 1995. Since that time, Match.com has become one of the more successful and famous internet dating services. It has a lower monthly cost than most of its major competitors, along with a laid back approach to the organized match making industry.

To become a member, you need to create a username. The cool thing about the username is how messages go to it, and are then rerouted to your email address. That means no browsing through your profile knows your email address, while only members can send you an email. Match.com understands that people, especially women, are leery of the potential matches they will meet on an online dating service. Therefore, security is a major focus at Match.com.

After your username is ready to go, you then supply a profile and photo. You can then start your search for potential mates, using such crieria as their location, personality type, physical traits or simply usernames. You can search by looking at a persons profile and photo. You can even search by photo alone, to see who catches your eye.

There is a two-way match option. A member looks to see which profiles match his or her needs. Then the member can narrow the search down to those whom you match, too. In this way, you and everyone else is saved a lot of time and potential disappointment. If you want to see how compatible you and your prospective mate are, you can even do a side-by-side comparison of what the two of you like on dates and such. Finally, if you are looking to be flirtatious, there is the wink option. You send a person a wink to let them know youre interested. They can respond or not. On the other hand, you will recieve an email every day from Match.com letting you know how many winks you have received.

In the olden days, the sun and gold and god and prosperity were all tied up together. They were also mostly considered to be the domain of men and many amongst us who are not of that gender still carry a residual notion that this might not be for “our kind”, simply by the virtue of overwhelming experience of so many generations for a hundred thousand years.

Fact is though that the sun is a powerful prosperity and wealth symbol, perhaps the most powerful of them all - and it shines on EVERYONE.

This prosperity sunrise is a shamanic healing meditation designed to bring you closer to the aspects of wealth and power inherent in the symbolism of the sun; it is easy to do and quite wonderful.

If you are of a mind, you could put on some suitable music and move or dance this meditation - this will give you 360′ of physical movement which strengthens the experience and makes it far more profound than if it is entirely autogenic.

So in a moment, close your eyes and find yourself on a wide, sweeping plane, cool and dark it is still but there is a banding on the far horizon that tells you the sun is about to rise.

This is YOUR personal prosperity sunrise.

Feel the power and radiance of the sun increasing as the sky fills with living light, as it gets brighter and brighter, all around, you feel the light and then the sun rises majestically over the horizon and floods the plane with light, bathes you in light, powerful energy, powerful charge and powerful wealth.

Accept this blessing with open arms.

Open your heart, your mind and all your being to the golden rays of sun.

Turn around slowly on the spot and bathe in this blessing of wealth and brilliant power.

When you are filled to overflowing and beyond, return and …

Continue with your day!

When ecologically-minded feminists debate their menstrual
product options, they most often advocate using organic cotton
tampons and pads, rather than those made from synthetic
materials like rayon. The reason most of these women choose the
organic cotton versions centers around the fact that the
synthetics have been linked to potential health hazards, such as
Toxic Shock Syndrome and dioxin exposure.

One option that is often left out of such discussions (as well
as media programs and articles) is reusable menstrual products.
The truth is, before tampons and throwaway menstrual pads came
on the market in the 1930s, women used rags, which were kind to
the environment because they were washable and hence, reusable.
It wasn’t until the ’30s, and in the years since then, that more
and more ecologically-minded women began to discover that they
had cause for concern.

After all, it is extremely wasteful to use a product for just a
few hours and then toss it. And according to most estimates, the
average woman will use nearly 12,000 of these products during
her lifetime. That’s quite a lot of garbage!

Whether you flush a tampon or pad down the toilet, or throw it
in the garbage, it is going to be problematic for the
environment. If flushed down the toilet, these products can clog
the sewer line; or they can go on to play havoc with the water
treatment plant. (I understand that in 9 out of 10 plumbing
problems in apartment buildings, homes and offices, the culprits
are reusable menstrual products!)

When you throw them in the garbage, these reusables end up in
landfills, where they probably won’t biodegrade for many years,
because they lack light, water and circulating air. (Did you
know that people have dug into landfills and found newspapers
from 50 years earlier that are still readable?) And experts
estimate that plastic tampon applicators may actually take 300
to 500 years to break down. But since tampons have only been
around for seventy years, we can’t yet be positive exactly how
long the applicators will take to biodegrade.

So what’s the answer for the ecologically-conscious menstruating
woman? Reusable menstrual products, of course. Instead of a
tampon, women can use the earth-friendly, reusable menstrual
cup, called The Keeper, made from gentle rubber, similar to the
rubber that is used to make baby bottle nipples. Besides being
easy on the environment, The Keeper is easy on the pocketbook;
one cup should last up to 10 years. And since it is made of
rubber, rather than of an absorbent fibrous material, such as
rayon, it can be worn up to 12 hours before being emptied. On
heavy days, you may want to change it more often. The fact that
The Keeper is not made of rayon, or any other synthetic
material, also reduces the potential for Toxic Shock Syndrome
and eliminates dioxin exposure. (Are you aware that the FDA does
not require manufacturers of tampons or pads to list their
products’ ingredients in or on the box?)

But some women want a reusable - but not an insertable -
menstrual product. The answer: reusable menstrual pads like Glad
Rags, made from organic cotton that, like The Keeper, can be
used for years and will be friendly to the environment.

For these reasons, reusable menstrual products are probably THE
MOST ENVIRONMENT-FRIENDLY OF ALL!

Last week I saw a TV interview with a well-known actress who
maintained that all men are programmed to cheat. According to
this genius, testosterone surges compel men to dive into the
sack with strangers. The poor dears can’t help themselves, and
it’s our duty as women to accept it.

Fortunately, a well-known sex therapist just happened to be the
show’s next guest, and she set the actress straight. All men do
not cheat. All men do not fight their hormones all day long.

Honorable men are faithful.

Many women, like the actress, kid themselves into believing that
men just can’t be expected to behave decently. Don’t be one of
them. Putting up with substandard treatment from a love interest
can be dangerous (consider AIDS and other STDs). Expect men to
treat you as you would treat them: with love, loyalty, respect,
and passion.

No woman should ever assume that her boyfriend or husband is
biologically incapable of monogamy any more than he is of, say,
clearing a table. The fact is, the world is full of wonderful
men who want to love a woman the way she should be loved.

Silly magazine blurbs (”HOW TO GET A GUY TO COMMIT,” “IS HE
CHEATING? 10 TELL-TALE SIGNS!”)are designed to make readers feel
insecure enough to “need” the products advertised within. Do not
let them sway you into accepting shoddy behavior. Ignore
misguided proclamations about male sexuality from women who’ve
talked themselves into allowing rotten behavior from so-called
“lovers.”

Raise your standards. Expect only the best men to enter your
life. Allow no cheaters, liars, abusers, mama’s boys, or
controlling toads to cross your threshold.

Hold out for the man who will adore you and lift you up. He’s
out there, and you deserve nothing less.
