Think Twice Before You Change Jobs

Monday, March 31st, 2008

By Ramon Greenwood You’ve got the itch to change jobs. This might be a good time to make the move. The Wall Street Journal has just reported, “Job-seekers from rank-and-file workers to senior executives are preparing their resumes for what may be the strongest fall hiring season in years.” “Before you jump to a new job, be certain you have good, sound reasons for wanting to make a change,” advises Ramon Greenwood, senior career counselor at Common SenseAtWork.com. “You may believe you can accelerate your career with a new job. You may be bored or running away from personal problems.” First, ask yourself, “Are there things I can do to make my present situation more acceptable?” Don’t be lulled into believing that the grass will necessarily be greener in another pasture. Or that a new pasture will be a great deal different from the one you are grazing in now. Except in the most extreme reasons, do not leave your present job until you have another one firmly in hand. If it was ever true that a bird in hand is worth two in the bush, it is when a job is concerned. Remember, it is always easier to get a job when you have one. What Do You Want? Take the time to figure out what you really want to do. What will it take to make you happier? It is not enough to know what you want to change from; you need to know what you want to change to. Be specific in answering these questions. Don’t allow yourself to be driven by a sense of vague malaise to make a change just for the sake of change. If you can’t spell out in writing the valid reasons you want to move to a new job and be equally specific about what you want that job to be, don’t set the process in motion. Recognize that you are contemplating a serious and difficult undertaking, even under the best of circumstances. There is always some risk to your present situation when you start looking around. What will your present employer think if the word gets around that you are “looking”? At best, the whole process is usually disruptive and can be traumatic for you and your loved ones. Determine that you have the courage to live with the dangers and uncertainties of making a change. Survey the situation. Be sure there is a market for the skills you have to offer where you want to live. If You Go, Go Full Speed Ahead If, after giving the matter careful thought, you are convinced you would be better off in a new situation, go for it full speed ahead. The search for a new job is not a time for half-measures. To vacillate between courting new employers and sitting back in a coy mode, hoping to be courted, will surely breed frustration. Mount a campaign and invest whatever time and energy are required to reach your objective. If you have something to offer that the market wants, you will find a new job. However, it will take time. There may come a point when you decide that by comparison your present situation looks quite attractive. So you may decide to stay put, at least for the time being. So don’t burn bridges behind you. And don’t worry about there being a stigma attached to changing jobs. A lot of other people are shopping for new jobs at any given time. It has been estimated that today’s college graduates can expect that on average they will have held eight different jobs by the time they are 40. In fact, some personnel recruiters argue that your resume will be stronger if it shows some changes in jobs, so long as the reasons for changing are positive.

Chiropractic For Seniors: Seven Outstanding Benefits

Saturday, March 29th, 2008

By Larry Smith Many seniors are unaware of the outstanding benefits that are possible through regular chiropractic care. I have compiled a list of seven of the most frequent benefits that chiropractic care provides for seniors. 1. Pain Relief Chiropractic care is one of the most effective and safest forms of health care to treat pain due to spinal related conditions. Chiropractic is so effective because most causes of spinal disorders are related to abnormalities of the spine and the surrounding soft tissue structures. Doctors of chiropractic are specifically trained to identify and treat subluxations (misalignments of the vertebrae) and their subsequent effect on the central nervous system. Anti inflammatory medication and pain relievers merely mask the symptoms and have many undesirable side effects. 2. Increased Range of Motion of the Spine and Extremities Chiropractic care has been shown repeatedly to increase not only the range of motion of the spine but also in the extremities. Increasing a persons range of motion can positively and drastically affect lives in many ways. For some, an increased range of motion means being able to bend down to pick up their grandchildren. For others, it means they can garden without pain or get an extra 40 yards of distance out of their driver on the golf course. In many cases, an increase in range of motion immediately follows chiropractic adjustments. This is one of the reasons why many top professional sporting teams have team chiropractors. 3. Increased Balance and Coordination Many problems in balance and coordination in the aging population have been shown to come from injury or degenerative changes to the cervical spine (neck region). Structures known as mechanoreceptors are located in the posterior (back) joints of the cervical spine and are responsible for providing the brain with essential information important for balance and coordination. Mechanoreceptors in cervical posterior joints provide major input regarding the position of the head in relation to the body. With aging, mild defects impair mechanoreceptors function and results in a loss of proprioception (sense of body awareness). With decreased proprioception, body positioning in space is impaired and the patient becomes reliant on vision to know the location of a limb. To compensate for the loss of proprioception (sense of body awareness) in the legs, the feet are kept wider apart than usual. Steps become irregular and uneven in length. As impairment increases, the patient becomes unable to compensate. With severe loss of proprioception, the patient is unable to get up from a chair or rise after a fall without assistance. Studies have shown that chiropractic care can help restore balance and coordination by stimulating the joint receptors (mechanoreceptors) in the cervical spine. This stimulation is thought to restore or normalize joint receptor functioning which leads to improvements in balance and coordination. (Caranasos, MD, Isreal, MD. Gait Disorders in the Elderly. Hospital Practice. 1991; June 15:67-94.Guyton, MD. Textbook of Medical Physiology. 9th edition. WB Saunders, Philadelphia 1996; 714.) 4. Decreased Joint Degeneration A subluxated (misaligned) spine is much like a misaligned wheel on an automobile. This misalignment will cause the spine (and the wheel) to wear out prematurely. Since all moving parts will eventually wear down over time, it is very important to get your spine aligned periodically. Chiropractic care decreases spinal degeneration and other arthritic changes by normalizing the spinal alignment and reducing spinal stress. 5. Increased Health and Well-Being We commonly ask our patients what changes they notice once they are put of pain. Here are some regular responses we hear every day:I feel great! I can sleep through the night! Now I can play in the garden! I have so much energy! Life is worth living now! Yes, chiropractic is far more than mere pain relief.Feeling good, staying healthy and doing the things that make us happy are what keeps us looking forward to each new day. Regular chiropractic care increase the quality of life and increase health and well being. 6. Decreased Incidence of Falling Injuries due to falling are extremely common in the elderly population. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), falls are responsible for 90% of the 850,000 bone fractures which occur annually among Americans past the age of 65. Chiropractors reduce the risk of falls by normalizing the mechanoreceptors of the cervical spine by administering chiropractic adjustments. They also prescribe stretching and exercise programs to increase strength, flexibility, mobility, balance and coordination. 7. Keeps Seniors Out of Nursing Homes While studying at the Canadian Memorial Chiropractic College, I had the opportunity of meeting the president Dr. Ian Coulter. Dr. Coulter was involved with many research projects studying the benefits of chiropractic care and exercise. In 1996, he published an interesting study in the Journal, Topics of Clinical Chiropractic called Chiropractic care for the Elderly. The key points he noted in this study were: 44% of those who used chiropractic care reported having arthritis compared with 66% in the non-chiropractic care group those who used chiropractic care were more likely to do strenuous levels of exercise at three years follow-up, less than 5% of those who used chiropractic care lived in a nursing home while a staggering 48% of those who did not use chiropractic care did live in a nursing home at three years follow-up, only 26% of those who used chiropractic care were hospitalized compared with 48% of those in the non-chiropractic group There is no need for seniors to suffer needlessly. Chiropractic provides amazing benefits and has an outstanding record of safety and effectiveness. Ask your family and friends for a chiropractor that they recommend. Take action now and make an appointment to see if chiropractic can help you! Dr. Larry Smith Chiropractor and author of: Embrace the Journey of Recovery: From Tragedy to Triumph Embrace the Journey of Recovery will passionately reignite your spirit and teach you how to confront, conquer and powerfully triumph over any life threatening illness!

Burn Body Fat With Nutritious Juices

Friday, March 28th, 2008

By Caroline White There are many different ways to lose weight, and what works best for one person may not be the best solution for another. Juicing for weight loss, particularly when vegetable juices are emphasized, is one way to ensure that you choose a healthy weight loss regimen that does not sacrifice good nutrition. Vegetables are low in fat and calories, so replacing higher calorie foods with vegetable juices is very beneficial to a weight loss plan. Vegetable juicing can also provide a concentrated source of nutrients in a convenient way. But the benefits of juicing as a part of your weight loss regimen do not stop there. There are specific foods and even spices that you can include in your juices that may help to support the fat burning process when you are trying to lose weight. Since vegetables are very low in calories and sugar, they are the best choice if you are juicing to control your weight. Avoid fruit juices as much as possible since they are much higher in sugar and total calories. Controlling Your Appetite Drinking a glass of vegetable juice before each meal can help curb your appetite if you choose the ingredients with some care. Avoid herbs like coriander and basil, which can actually stimulate your appetite. Instead, the best vegetables to use when you are trying to lose weight are negative calorie foods those that require more calories to digest than they contain. Dark greens, cabbage, broccoli, carrots, and cabbage are among the best vegetables to use in juice recipes for weight loss. Also consider using asparagus, cucumber, and celery, which are natural diuretics that can alleviate water retention. In addition, carrot juice and parsley juice can help to maintain blood sugar levels, which will help prevent hunger. Since carrot juice is sweet, it can also help to satisfy sugar cravings. Another vegetable to try in juices if you have a sweet tooth is Jerusalem artichoke. However, although it reduces sugar cravings, Jerusalem artichoke is bland, so it is best combined with carrot, parsnip or lemon juice to bring out its flavor. Spices to Stimulate Your Metabolism In addition to vegetables that support fat burning, there are a number of spices that can help stimulate metabolism and which you can add to your juices easily. To find out a list of them visit the following site: juicing for weight loss. Article written by Caroline White. For juicing tips and techniques visit: benefits of juicing.

Herbs - Nature’s Potent Health Therapy

Wednesday, March 26th, 2008

By R.G. Srinivasan Use of herbs for health and as a medicine has a history dating back to mans evolution on the planet. From times immemorial, man has experimented and used botanicals to heal and provide remedial treatments. Ancient cultures from India, China and Japan have remarkable history of herbal use which part of the pharmacopoeia of these cultures.

The Death of Corporate Charity: How the Market Killed a Young, Noble Experiment

Monday, March 24th, 2008

By Steven Schad It won’t get a funeral or an obituary. It won’t even get a headstone. If it did, it would read something like this. Corporate Charityb. 1953 - d. ?A Grand and Noble Experiment thatSuccumbed to FratricideR.I.P. In the long history of business, corporate charity is just a youngster. It survived a relatively short time, but during that time, billions of dollars will have flowed from corporate coffers into the bank accounts of community charities. These, in turn, will have used those funds to solve social and environmental problems and build or rebuild communities. The sad irony of corporate charity’s demise is that its own brother, driven by market forces, will eventually be the cause. Many are surprised to learn that corporate charity didn’t exist legally in the United States until 1953. That was the year the Supreme Court established that corporations could give money to the community in the same way that other “persons” could. This was a big step, as it unleashed the power of corporate wealth in the pursuit of social and environmental issues in a way that until then was done only by individuals and government, if at all. The beginning of the end of this noble experiment came just three decades later, in 1983, when Corporate Charity’s younger half-brother, “Cause-Related Marketing”, was born. That’s when American Express released its Statue of Liberty restoration ad campaign. With it, they almost single-handedly created the practice of intentionally improving a company’s image and, more importantly, increasing sales by donating to a cause the customer cares about. In a stroke of marketing genius, the company linked its profits to the fate of an American icon. It pledged to donate one cent for every use of the American Express card and a dollar for every new card issued. The company experienced a 28% increase in card usage over the same period of a year earlier and ultimately raised $1.7 million for the project. Did executives at American Express sit around the mahogany table lamenting the fate of one of America’s greatest landmarks? Maybe. The genteel practice of corporate charity would have dictated quiet, dignified support, the success of which being almost irrelevant. Instead, cause-related marketing came screaming into the board room, demanding the company get something in return for its efforts: publicity and image enhancement — pure gold in the modern economy — and more sales. It dealt what would be a fatal blow to its older sibling by shifting the mindset in corporate America away from the mushy softness of “charity” to the business-savvy world of strategy. From that day forward, companies felt the heat of competition as they came up with ever more sophisticated ways of supporting the community while serving the companys interests. The goal was to get more targeted and more strategic. Cause-Related Marketing soon grew into “Strategic Philanthropy” in its toddler years. Strategic Philanthropy was all about moving the company past the easy PR splash to look for new and sometimes subtle market advantages to feed the company’s bottom line through corporate giving. Some looked at it as a way to penetrate new markets. If you wanted to reach Latinos, for example, you might donate to English as a Second Language (ESL) programs and inner city schools. Then, tie strings to the donation to be sure those who benefited knew who was behind it through co-branding course materials. Or, you might foster dependency on your products through generous donations. Apple created a whole generation of Mac enthusiasts by getting the jump on Microsoft and IBM with their computer donation program. As strategic philanthropy grew, it became more talented and multifaceted, so much so that the term “philanthropy” no longer aptly described it. It had grown to adulthood, now known as “Strategic Corporate Community Involvement”. With strategic corporate community involvement, the company uses multiple channels (human and material resources) to achieve multiple goals (marketing and organizational effectiveness) that are aligned with overall corporate strategy. For example, you might find a clothing company whose executive team has decided to support Race for the Cure. They might choose to do so because market research shows that support for womens charities is an important determining factor for purchases made by the company’s target demographic. Being a leading company in today’s market, they don’t stop there. They might go on to decide that in addition to foundation grants to Race for the Cure, the company will match employee contributions up to a certain dollar amount. This might also be supplemented by paid time off for employees to volunteer on race day. On top of this, you might find that Human Resources is leveraging the event to develop the communications and teamwork skills of the participating employees. These tactics may be aimed at engaging employees on an emotional level in mutual support of a worthy goal, creating a halo effect that enhances morale and support for the company, thus increasing productivity and retention. It also spills over into recruitment, since roughly eight out of every ten recruits is looking for socially engaged companies. Finally, with the skill development dimension added in, you see that volunteering is also leveraged to improve employee job performance. Whether it is skill development, employee morale and engagement, employee recruitment and retention, market share, or public goodwill, the purpose of corporate giving is a far cry from what it was in 1953. And, as Strategic Corporate Community Involvement gets older, stronger and even more sophisticated, the charming but woefully inefficient Corporate Charity will fade away and die killed by a younger, more vibrant, and more effective younger brother.

Tips On Designing Your Rose Garden To Create A Picturesque View In Your Yard

Saturday, March 22nd, 2008

By Tim Gorman There are several different designs for rose gardening that can make for a picturesque view in your yard. Determining the one you want is simply a matter of choosing the right colors, spacing, and supporting plants. What is the best way to start designing your rose garden? First, choose the type of roses you wish to plant. This decision may depend upon the amount of space available for your rose garden. If you have a minimal amount of space, miniature roses require the least amount of room. Standard rose bushes require a bit more, and climbers need a lot of space in order to remain healthy, needing to be planted at least eight feet apart. Once youve chosen a type of bush, you should determine the color of the roses you wish to showcase. There are several different colors and breeds of roses, and choosing among the older breeds will allow for an easier job as a gardener. These tend to be sturdier and easier to care for. Your rose garden could be patterned, even including standard sized rose bushes with miniatures in between, and colors could alternate. You may wish to pursue only one color, or you may even try cross-bred roses in your garden. This is up to you. Many people opt to match the colors of other flowers in their yard or even build their rose gardens to compliment the colors of their houses. When you finally begin to plant your roses, make sure they are spaced evenly to create a symmetric, aesthetically pleasing design. rose garden designs are most pleasant in appearance if they are geometric, so dont plant a strange number of bushes keep the garden design simple, in a square pattern or at least with an even number of bushes in a row. If you follow this simple process, you are guaranteed an outcome that is a beautiful design worthy of a double take.

Acid Reflux - Symptoms and Treatment

Monday, March 17th, 2008

By [http://ezinearticles.com/?expert=Richard_Smith] Richard Smith Acid reflux (also known as GERD or heartburn) is a common condition — Over 60 million Americans experience it at least once a month. For some, acid reflux is a temporary phenomenon experienced only when eating too much, or eating particular types of food e.g. spicy foods. But for many others, acid reflux can be a painful and persistent condition. What Is Acid Reflux? Acid reflux occurs when the lower oesophageal sphincter (that normally closes after swallowing to prevent stomach contents from escaping) malfunctions and allows stomach acid to travel up the oesophagus. When this occurs, a painful sensation is felt. What are the Symptoms of Acid Reflux? The symptoms of acid reflux are a painful burning sensation in the upper chest and/or regurgitation of acid into the mouth. Some patients will even develop nausea although this is less common. Although often called heartburn, the pain should not be mistaken for that associated with a true heart attack or cardiac arrest which would be accompanied by tightness of and pounding in the chest, weakness and feeling faint. What are the Treatments for Acid Reflux? Fortunately there are many treatments available for acid reflux. Antacids are usually the first port of call for many acid reflux sufferers. For short term and infrequent attacks of acid reflux, these provide much needed temporary relief. However, as a long term solution they are not suitable and alternatives should be sought. Any sufferer of regular acid reflux should keep a diary of everything they eat and drink. Over time, patterns can be established and many people report elimination or reduction of acid reflux symptoms after changing their diet accordingly to eliminate problematic food or drink. If dietary changes have little or no effect, there are various families of drugs that are available over the counter and on prescription. PPIs, or proton pump inhibitors, are often prescribed and successful drugs. These work by inhibiting production of the stomach acid that causes acid reflux. They have relatively limited side effects. H2 blockers are a different family of drugs that have the same effect but work in a different way. For the vast majority of long term acid reflux sufferers, PPIs and H2 blockers are a successful drug therapy. Some people, however, fail to respond to treatment with PPIs and H2 blockers and their only option are more radical drugs known as promotility agents. Unfortunately, these can have very severe side effects and are therefore rarely prescribed. Lastly, for those who fail to respond to drug treatment, or simply want an alternative to the daily inconvenience of taking drugs, surgery is an option. New techniques are constantly being developed, some of which include procedures such as Enteryx Procedure, Stretta Procedure, Nissen Fundoplication and Endocinch.

Platform Bird Feeders

Saturday, March 15th, 2008

By Pam Caouette What are platform bird feeders you may be wondering and what is their purpose with feeding birds? Well to put it simply a platform bird feeder is designed for birds who like to eat bird seed off of the ground. Platform bird feeders can be places slightly above ground, or the can be mounted off a deck a tree or a stump. You can also order a platform pole mount to mount your platform bird feeder on a pole. The main difference between hanging bird feeders and platform bird feeders is that with a hanging bird feeder the bird seed is dispensed through a crack or a small opening in the bird feeder. With a platform bird feeder the bird seed is placed on a platform, or a plate and the birds peck the food from a pile or scattering. With a platform bird feeder, or a tray bird feeder the birds that are attracted depends on the seeds, but if you are using a platform bird feeder, or fly thru feeder then you may end up seeing a cardinal and other various birds. Platform bird feeders can also be squirrel proof. By having your platform bird feeder hang, squirrels are less likely to reach your bird seed, saving you money and allowing the various birds to eat. Some platform bird feeders, or tray bird feeders come with a screen big enough for the birds beaks, but too small for the hands of the squirrels, this is a great feature. Platform bird feeders and tray bird feeders also know as ground bird feeders are easy to maintain and clean, and will bring different types of birds to your backyard than that of a hanging bird feeder. If you decide to buy a platform bird feeder, be sure that you have an adequate location in your yard before you make the purchase.
