&lt;td&gt;
&lt;p align=left&gt;&lt;font size=4&gt;&lt;font face="Century Schoolbook"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Aries&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;Be up front if you don't want to be embarrassed. Go out with friends. Gambling will be a waste of time and money. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=left&gt;&lt;font size=4&gt;&lt;font face="Century Schoolbook"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Taurus&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;You can make progress professionally. You will be in the doghouse if you are being. Get busy on those home improvement projects that you've been procrastinating about. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=left&gt;&lt;font size=4&gt;&lt;font face="Century Schoolbook"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Gemini &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;Sudden changes in your financial situation are likely. Take your time before making personal decisions. Curb your mood swings; they could result in loneliness. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=left&gt;&lt;font size=4&gt;&lt;font face="Century Schoolbook"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Cancer &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;Problems with skin, bones, or teeth may mess up your schedule. Don't allow colleagues to stand in your way. Don't reveal any personal details. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=left&gt;
&lt;table cellSpacing=2 cellPadding=2 align=right&gt;

&lt;tr&gt;
&lt;td&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;/table&gt;&lt;font size=4&gt;&lt;font face="Century Schoolbook"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Leo&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;Lay your cards on the table regarding your personal direction. They will not be in the right frame of mind to put up with tactless comments. Do not confront situations unless you are sure you have a good understanding of the dilemma. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=left&gt;&lt;font size=4&gt;&lt;font face="Century Schoolbook"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Virgo&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;You'll find it easy to meet new people. You can make a difference if you take a position of leadership. Sudden romantic encounters will set your head spinning. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=left&gt;&lt;font size=4&gt;&lt;font face="Century Schoolbook"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Libra&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;You must follow your desires and dreams. It might be best to spend time fixing up your premises and making changes that will be appreciated. You will enjoy interacting with those who come from different backgrounds. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=left&gt;&lt;font size=4&gt;&lt;font face="Century Schoolbook"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Scorpio&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;Physical limitations are possible if you aren't careful. Friends may not understand your situation. This is a great day to get out and enjoy an entertaining evening with friends or lovers. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=left&gt;
&lt;table cellSpacing=2 cellPadding=2 align=right&gt;

&lt;tr&gt;
&lt;td&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;/table&gt;&lt;font size=4&gt;&lt;font face="Century Schoolbook"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Sagittarius&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;Romance can develop; however, it will most probably be short-lived. Physical activity will help defuse your frustration. Your emotional partner will push the right buttons today. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=left&gt;&lt;font size=4&gt;&lt;font face="Century Schoolbook"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Capricorn&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;Alienation may be the result of a misunderstanding. When the work is done, they may serve you for a change. If boredom has set in, find new and unique directions that offer interesting friendships. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=left&gt;&lt;font size=4&gt;&lt;font face="Century Schoolbook"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Aquarius&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;Too much too fast will be the attitude surrounding your home environment. Don't say things that could be damaging later on. Cut loose. You can make personal changes that will enhance your appearance and bring about greater social activity. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=left&gt;&lt;font size=4&gt;&lt;font face="Century Schoolbook"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Pisces&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;br /&gt;Try not to overspend on friends or family. Observations will be far more productive. You may have the opportunity to get involved in some interesting conversations. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;/table&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;/table&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;font face="Century Schoolbook" size=5&gt;&lt;img id=fullSizedImage alt="zodiac-fantasy.jpg picture by psychiclexymoon" src="http://i219.photobucket.com/albums/cc215/psychiclexymoon/zodiac-fantasy.jpg?t=1208042692" /&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;font face="Century Schoolbook" size=4&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;font face="Century Schoolbook" size=4&gt;Aries&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&lt;font face="Century Schoolbook" size=4&gt;Relationships will become stronger. You will have an inaccurate assessment of your status in society. If boredom has set in, find new and unique directions that offer interesting friendships. Use your creative abilities to come up with new ideas and directions. &lt;br /&gt;Your lucky day this week will be Thursday. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&lt;font face="Century Schoolbook" size=4&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;font face="Century Schoolbook" size=4&gt;Taurus&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&lt;font face="Century Schoolbook" size=4&gt;Time is money and you must be ready to take action in order to reach your highest potential. The only thing you'll accomplish is a bad reputation. You should get out and enjoy social events where you are likely to meet new potential mates; however, don't over spend. Think hard before going into business with friends or family. &lt;br /&gt;Your lucky day this week will be Wednesday. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&lt;font face="Century Schoolbook" size=4&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;font face="Century Schoolbook" size=4&gt;Gemini&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&lt;font face="Century Schoolbook" size=4&gt;Help elders get their personal papers in order. Involvement in groups will be favorable and lead to valuable information. Things will be hectic and family members will be erratic. Money can be made if your are willing to take a chance. &lt;br /&gt;Your lucky day this week will be Friday.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&lt;font face="Century Schoolbook" size=4&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;font face="Century Schoolbook" size=4&gt;Cancer&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&lt;font face="Century Schoolbook" size=4&gt;&amp;nbsp;Take a second look; another person's philosophy may be extremely different from yours. You will meet exciting new people through interest groups or functions that you attend with your children. Take time to deal with the concerns of children. Your mate will appreciate your honesty. &lt;br /&gt;Your lucky day this week will be Tuesday.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&lt;font face="Century Schoolbook" size=4&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;font face="Century Schoolbook" size=4&gt;Leo&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&lt;font face="Century Schoolbook" size=4&gt;&amp;nbsp;Have some fun, but draw the line if someone tries to fast talk their way into your heart. Confusion could result when communicating with others. You should spend your day trying to get things completed at work. Focus on your own domestic problems. &lt;br /&gt;Your lucky day this week will be Wednesday. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&lt;font face="Century Schoolbook" size=4&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;font face="Century Schoolbook" size=4&gt;Virgo&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&lt;font face="Century Schoolbook" size=4&gt;You will be extremely receptive to new and progressive methods at work. Don't deny yourself this week. You must be sure not to be frivolous, because as the saying goes, easy come, easy go. Jealousy may get in the way of a good relationship. &lt;br /&gt;Your lucky day this week will be Wednesday. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&lt;font face="Century Schoolbook" size=4&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;font face="Century Schoolbook" size=4&gt;Libra&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&lt;font face="Century Schoolbook" size=4&gt;You will be inclined to make unwise investment choices. Take time to help children with projects that may be too hard for them to do on their own. You will meet potential new mates through friends or relatives. Children may be demanding, and entertainment could cost a lot more than you can really afford. &lt;br /&gt;Your lucky day this week will be Sunday. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&lt;font face="Century Schoolbook" size=4&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;font face="Century Schoolbook" size=4&gt;Scorpio&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&lt;font face="Century Schoolbook" size=4&gt;Be sure to think twice before you say something that might hurt your partner's feelings. Try not to discuss important matters with colleagues. Plan events like camping or white water rafting. Don't be too hard on yourself. &lt;br /&gt;Your lucky day this week will be Saturday. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&lt;font face="Century Schoolbook" size=4&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;font face="Century Schoolbook" size=4&gt;Sagittarius&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&lt;font face="Century Schoolbook" size=4&gt;Avoid boredom by being creative in your endeavors. Unpredictable events will disrupt your routine. Don't say something you'll live to regret. You will get great satisfaction from your efforts.&lt;br /&gt;Your lucky day this week will be Sunday. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&lt;font face="Century Schoolbook" size=4&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;font face="Century Schoolbook" size=4&gt;Capricorn&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&lt;font face="Century Schoolbook" size=4&gt;You can enjoy the company of others and come in contact with an ideal mate, if you get out and mingle. You'll be surprised how much you can accomplish. You will have to be careful not to fall into traps set by jealous colleagues. Focus on your domestic scene. Get together with friends or relatives.&lt;br /&gt;Your lucky day this week will be Tuesday. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&lt;font face="Century Schoolbook" size=4&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;font face="Century Schoolbook" size=4&gt;Aquarius&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&lt;font face="Century Schoolbook" size=4&gt;You will be highly entertaining when in contact with your lover. Delve into worthwhile causes that will show results if you put in the effort. Don't expect new acquaintances to be completely honest about themselves. Travel and entertainment will be pleasurable. &lt;br /&gt;Your lucky day this week will be Tuesday. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&lt;font face="Century Schoolbook" size=4&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;font face="Century Schoolbook" size=4&gt;Pisces&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&lt;font face="Century Schoolbook" size=4&gt;Things at home may be somewhat rocky. This could be a serious relation ship. Minor health problems will cause setbacks if you haven't taken proper care of yourself. Be careful; your ideas are good but make sure that you're realistic and start off on solid ground. &lt;br /&gt;Your lucky day this week will be Thursday. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&lt;font size=4&gt;&lt;font face="Century Schoolbook"&gt;.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt; 
&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font face="Century Schoolbook"&gt;&lt;font size=2&gt;Horoscopes provided courtesy of&amp;nbsp;Michael Emerson&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;div&gt;&lt;font face="Century Schoolbook" size=4&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&lt;font face="Century Schoolbook" size=4&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Aries&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&lt;font face="Century Schoolbook" size=4&gt;However, you must not neglect your family. Don't count on your friends to be loyal when it comes to doing things. Be aware that you don't get anything for nothing. Sudden romantic connections may be short lived. &lt;br /&gt;Your luckiest events this month will occur on a Sunday. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&lt;font face="Century Schoolbook" size=4&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&lt;font face="Century Schoolbook" size=4&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Taurus&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&lt;font face="Century Schoolbook" size=4&gt;Good friends will give you honest answers. Your high energy, original ideas, and excellent memory will aid your accomplishments. Jealousy may be a contributing factor to your emotional ups and downs. You will meet new and exciting people if you attend social activities or sporting events.&lt;br /&gt;Your luckiest events this month will occur on a Wednesday. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&lt;font face="Century Schoolbook" size=4&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&lt;font face="Century Schoolbook" size=4&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Gemini&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&lt;font face="Century Schoolbook" size=4&gt;Put something away in case of an emergency. You will have additional discipline that will aid you in your objectives. Romantic encounters are evident through travel or educational pursuits. Be careful not to exaggerate when interacting with your lover.&lt;br /&gt;Your luckiest events this month will occur on a Tuesday. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&lt;font face="Century Schoolbook" size=4&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&lt;font face="Century Schoolbook" size=4&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Cancer&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&lt;font face="Century Schoolbook" size=4&gt;Be sure to question any detail that you feel could leave you in a precarious position at a later date. Don't lend or borrow money or belongings. However, you may not attract the kind of interest you had in mind. Listen to a good friend who is truly looking out for your best interests. &lt;br /&gt;Your luckiest events this month will occur on a Saturday. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&lt;font face="Century Schoolbook" size=4&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&lt;font face="Century Schoolbook" size=4&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Leo&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&lt;font face="Century Schoolbook" size=4&gt;Be careful when using machinery or electrical equipment. Check into art objects or precious stones. You can do well in group endeavors. Double check your work and be sure that your boss is in a good mood before you do your presentation. Uncertainty regarding your mate may emerge; reevaluate what you see in each other. &lt;br /&gt;Your luckiest events this month will occur on a Thursday. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&lt;font face="Century Schoolbook" size=4&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&lt;font face="Century Schoolbook" size=4&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Virgo&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&lt;font face="Century Schoolbook" size=4&gt;Look into joining groups that can give you hands-on advice about business. You can look into new jobs but don't count on getting help from someone who may have promised you assistance. Your best efforts will come through hard work. Your ability to deal with others will help you accomplish your goals. &lt;br /&gt;Your luckiest events this month will occur on a Thursday. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&lt;font face="Century Schoolbook" size=4&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&lt;font face="Century Schoolbook" size=4&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Libra&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&lt;font face="Century Schoolbook" size=4&gt;Someone you least expect may not have your best interests at heart. Talk to your emotional partner about your intentions. You may find that others do not do things the way you want; however, if the job gets done, let it pass. You will have no problem getting your point across to those in a position to help you.&lt;br /&gt;Your luckiest events this month will occur on a Saturday. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&lt;font face="Century Schoolbook" size=4&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&lt;font face="Century Schoolbook" size=4&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Scorpio&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&lt;font size=4&gt;&lt;font face="Century Schoolbook"&gt;You must not let fellow workers take advantage of your fine talents. You will be best suited to doing things around the house or inviting friends over for a visit. You need to concentrate on the areas where you can make a difference. Avoid lovers who already have a relation ship, even if it is a bad one. &lt;br /&gt;Your luckiest events this month will occur on a Tuesday. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&lt;font face="Century Schoolbook" size=4&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&lt;font face="Century Schoolbook" size=4&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Sagittarius&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&lt;font face="Century Schoolbook" size=4&gt;You may want to take another look at the investment you are about to make. Be cautious when dealing with coworkers. Don't expect support from your mate. You will feel so much better about yourself if you can control your addictions. &lt;br /&gt;Your luckiest events this month will occur on a Saturday. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&lt;font face="Century Schoolbook" size=4&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&lt;font face="Century Schoolbook" size=4&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Capricorn&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&lt;font face="Century Schoolbook" size=4&gt;You will upset your partner if you have spent money on things that aren't necessary. Escapist tendencies may lead to overindulgence. Don't point your finger unjustly at others. Find out all the facts before you jump to conclusions. &lt;br /&gt;Your luckiest events this month will occur on a Sunday. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&lt;font face="Century Schoolbook" size=4&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&lt;font face="Century Schoolbook" size=4&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Aquarius&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&lt;font face="Century Schoolbook" size=4&gt;Things aren't as they appear. You need time to rejuvenate. You will reap the rewards for your kind actions. This will be a great night to invite friend over to visit. &lt;br /&gt;Your luckiest events this month will occur on a Tuesday. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&lt;font face="Century Schoolbook" size=4&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&lt;font face="Century Schoolbook" size=4&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Pisces&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&lt;font size=4&gt;&lt;font face="Century Schoolbook"&gt;Try to include friends and relatives in your activities. Don't get depressed, get busy. You can accomplish a lot if you're willing to put in a little extra time. There is not much you can do to alleviate the problem, but consider putting some extra work into your house. You may have the opportunity to get involved in some interesting conversations. &lt;br /&gt;Your luckiest events this month will occur on a Thursday. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&lt;font face="Century Schoolbook" size=4&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font face="Century Schoolbook"&gt;&lt;font size=2&gt;Horoscopes provided courtesy Michael Emerson&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;

&lt;p class=MsoNormal&gt;&lt;font face="Century Schoolbook" size=4&gt;One does not have to be an economist to notice the economy is in serious trouble. There are signs everywhere. Unemployment has raised in May to 5.5% it's highest level since 2004; this is the largest monthly increase since 1986. Stocks plunged almost 400 points. If this was not enough, crude oil is at an all time high. Gas prices are expected to rise again and very soon.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class=MsoNormal&gt;&lt;font face="Century Schoolbook" size=4&gt;Experts still say we are not in a recession, but we are very close. Chances are if the economy is not affecting you it is affecting someone you know. The elderly, working, and poor are being hit extremely hard. The industries being hit the hardest are airline, construction, housing, leisure, among others.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class=MsoNormal&gt;&lt;font face="Century Schoolbook" size=4&gt;Many business owners are having to make tough decisions of letting their longtime loyal employees go. Other business owners are moving their offices into their homes. Some have attempted to lower their prices drastically; others are having 50% off sales. Many businesses are barely able to stay afloat during these economic hard times.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class=MsoNormal&gt;&lt;font face="Century Schoolbook" size=4&gt;There are no signs of immediate improvement, or improvements in the economy any time soon. Perhaps soon the experts will state the economy is in a recession. Though the technical signs are not there to show a recession at the moment, times are tough for many. With any luck things will start to improve soon. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class=MsoNormal&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;font face="Century Schoolbook" size=4&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;img src="http://www.keen.com/CommunityServer/aggbug.aspx?PostID=369663" width="1" height="1"&gt;</description><category domain="http://www.keen.com/CommunityServer/blogs/14471119/archive/category/2166.aspx">Guidance For Life</category></item><item><title>Universal Healthcare Could Help Improve the Economy</title><link>http://www.keen.com/CommunityServer/UserBlogPosts/Lexy_Moon/Universal-Healthcare-Could-Help-Improve-the-Economy/369726.aspx</link><pubDate>Sat, 07 Jun 2008 22:42:00 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">8ca05964-da1c-4176-9dbc-9d0bc609bb83:369726</guid><dc:creator>Lexy Moon</dc:creator><slash:comments>1</slash:comments><comments>http://www.keen.com/CommunityServer/blogs/14471119/comments/369726.aspx</comments><wfw:commentRss>http://www.keen.com/CommunityServer/blogs/14471119/commentrss.aspx?PostID=369726</wfw:commentRss><description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;font face="Century Schoolbook" size=2&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;Ten Ways Universal Health Care will Improve The Economy&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;font size=4&gt;&lt;font face="Century Schoolbook"&gt;Before I get started, I would like to define what I mean by “Universal Healthcare.” There seems to be a lot of confusion on the issue, and frankly several implementations of the concept in various nations. “Various nations” in this case means “virtually every industrialized nation except the United States,” so it is worthwhile to learn from what all those other nations have done.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt; &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;font size=4&gt;&lt;font face="Century Schoolbook"&gt;Universal Healthcare is a system under which &lt;em&gt;basic &lt;/em&gt;health needs are paid for by a single government payer. Basic health needs includes treatment for urgent, emergent, preventative, reconstructive, routine, and chronic care. Any system which mandates &lt;em&gt;basic &lt;/em&gt;coverage be purchased by employers is &lt;strong&gt;not &lt;/strong&gt;Universal Healthcare. Any system which involves &lt;em&gt;for-profit insurance companies&lt;/em&gt; selling policies for &lt;em&gt;basic &lt;/em&gt;health coverage is &lt;strong&gt;not &lt;/strong&gt;Universal Healthcare. Health insurance companies can still sell supplemental policies, and employers have the option of providing them as a benefit to employees and their families.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;font size=4&gt;&lt;font face="Century Schoolbook"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;i&gt;How Universal Healthcare Will Improve the Economy:&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;font size=4&gt;&lt;font face="Century Schoolbook"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;1. It will make the Big 3 American automobile manufacturers — and other manufacturers — more competitive.&lt;/strong&gt; Depending whose figures you like to use, healthcare costs add between $1000 and $1500 to the price of every new American car. Toyota has also found health insurance costs to be unreasonable, and is trying to do something about it that is beneficial to employees. But when all is said and done, the fact that the heads of the Big 3 are not demanding Universal Healthcare is an issue about which shareholders should scream holy hell. Although the figures for the automotive industry are the most readily available, it must be noted that other manufacturers have similar issues. Reducing the cost of manufacturing products in the United States will make our manufacturing companies more competitve at home and in the world markets.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;font size=4&gt;&lt;font face="Century Schoolbook"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;2. Universal Healthcare gives employers greater control over the cost of providing benefits.&lt;/strong&gt; As the CEO of GM has pointed out, healthcare costs are rising 14-18% annually, a number which exceeds inflation and GDP growth combined and doubled. It is difficult to control costs when certain expenses grow that rapidly. Some companies have tried to work around this company by slashing coverage, or by making employees pay a greater share of their coverage. This is nothing more than a band-aid on a gaping wound. Such practices put off the day when costs actually have to be controlled, and insurance companies told “no.” And of course, this “solution” creates resentful employees.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;font size=4&gt;&lt;font face="Century Schoolbook"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;3. Universal Healthcare evens the playing field for employers competing for labor.&lt;/strong&gt; Many job seekers have to do some internal calculus to the effect of “Company A pays more but has Insurance X, but Company B pays less and has Blue Cross. Which is a better deal?” Many job seekers can't take a chance on a small company that can't afford to provide “good” benefits due to health concerns. This brings us to….&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;font size=4&gt;&lt;font face="Century Schoolbook"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;4. Universal Healthcare will stimulate the growth of small business and create jobs.&lt;/strong&gt; There is no way to know how many businesses have never been started because the potential entrepreneurs couldn't get insurance for their families. Universal healthcare will encourage people to be in business for themselves, and make it easier for them to hire people to help make their dream a reality.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;font size=4&gt;&lt;font face="Century Schoolbook"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;5. Universal Healthcare will improve worker productivity.&lt;/strong&gt; How? By giving workers the means to treat small problems before they become big problems, and by providing better access to preventative care. When workers spend a day out of the office, sure they aren't doing anything, but how does that compare to the slow pace that worker might take if they came in sick for a week? And they'll do even less if they have to spend a week in the hospital. Strangely enough, that means….&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;font size=4&gt;&lt;font face="Century Schoolbook"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;6. Universal Healthcare will allow more efficient spending of healthcare dollars.&lt;/strong&gt; If Jane Average can have her infection treated in the doctor’s office, that’s a lot cheaper than treating her raging infection with complications in the emergency room. If Joe Average can get his high blood pressure under control before he has a heart attack, it will save both time and money in the long run. And that is to completely discount the effect of reducing crowding in the emergency room!&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;font size=4&gt;&lt;font face="Century Schoolbook"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;7. Universal Healthcare will insure a better educated and healthier workforce for the coming generation.&lt;/strong&gt; One of the great tragedies of employer-provided health insurance is that children don't have employers. Sure, many employers that provide health insurance will provide it for employee’s kids, but usually for an extra fee. As a result, there are millions of American children with no healthcare insurance, and parents who pray they don't get sick. These kids are less likely to get preventative care, less likely to have chronic conditions treated, and more likely to miss school. Someday, these kids will grow up. Even if there is not enough support among politicians to get Universal Health, the very very least we can do as a society is provide a MediKids program that would cover all minor children (and in an ideal world, college students).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;8. Universal Healthcare will help prevent chronic illness from becoming disabling illness.&lt;/strong&gt; It is sad but true that certain illnesses, if not treated promptly and properly, will result in permanent disability. Diabetes is a prime example. Untreated and uncontrolled, it can result in blindness, limbs which must be amputated, kidney disease, strokes, and a host of other terrible problems. And since chronic conditions by definition can go on for years and years, many people find themselves in a position where an insurance company will decline to cover their single biggest health problem as a “pre-existing condition.” This is of course a business decision, not a moral or ethical decision. It is also disgusting.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;font size=4&gt;&lt;font face="Century Schoolbook"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;9. Universal Healthcare will prevent medical debt from forcing people into bankruptcy.&lt;/strong&gt; You may recall a couple of years ago when Congress was trying to force through a bankruptcy reform bill, then-new research found that medical debt can often lead to bankruptcy. People who cannot afford to pay their bills are not generally out making lots of consumer purchases. Consumer spending is of course the largest single part of the GDP.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;font size=4&gt;&lt;font face="Century Schoolbook"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;10. Universal Healthcare will facilitate early detection and prevention of epidemics and pandemics.&lt;/strong&gt; The United States Government is concerned enough about the risk of a flu pandemic that they have set up a website called PandemicFlu.gov They've even had the CDC figure out the economic impact of a flu pandemic. Oh, and don't forget the possibility of an outbreak of some of the old, traditional diseases like measles. Like other illnesses, the sooner we as a population realize there is a problem the quicker it can be contained. In this case, time may be money, but more importantly it is lives.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p class=MsoNormal&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;font face="Century Schoolbook" size=3&gt;&lt;font color=#0000ff&gt;&amp;nbsp;And there's a feelin', deep down inside me.

I'd drop everything for the touch of your hand in mine.&lt;br /&gt;You were blind and now you regret it, 'cause I can't forget it. It's locked in my mind.&lt;br /&gt;And I can't go on livin' day to day wondering if you'll be here tomorrow.&lt;br /&gt;People change and you're changin'.

&lt;p class=MsoNormal&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;font face="Century Schoolbook"&gt;&lt;font color=#0000ff&gt;&lt;font size=4&gt;James Seals, Darrell Crofts&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class=MsoNormal&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;font face="Century Schoolbook" color=#0000ff size=3&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class=MsoNormal&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;font face="Century Schoolbook" size=3&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class=MsoNormal&gt;&lt;font face="Century Schoolbook" size=4&gt;We humans are mysterious creatures. Sometimes when we want something such as to get closer to someone in a relationship, we fail to communicate our desires to the opposite sex. Here are a few ways to help you get what you are seeking in a relationship with your new partner. One of the most important things we can do is communicate with the person we are attempting to get closer to, talk with them as if they are a friend. Simple meaningful conversations show the other person we respect and trust them. It is romantic to have that person of the opposite sex as a friend. We don't have to reveal all our secrets to them just talk to them. Ask them about their day, if it wasn't the greatest cheer them up. This shows that you care, and you will be there when they need you. Spend some more time with him/her. If you are only seeing each other once a week, try a different day, and adding additional dates. Open up and show them who you really are. Let them see how you spend some of your time. If you like to go volunteer at the library, invite him/her to come along. &lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;Keep an open mind and be willing to try new experiences. We all get into a rut now and again, and that is ok. But when we are trying to get to know someone more it is better keep ourselves open. We can learn so much when we keep an open mind. Maybe your new beau wants to go ice skating, and you don't know how. GO you could have lots of fun. Smile with them, a smile shows you enjoy their company. &lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;Be nice, maybe it was not the best date of your life, you don't have to lie and say you loved it, but try to keep a positive attitude. Show the other person you appreciate them, pay them compliments. Appreciation goes a long way. Be humorous, laughing shows your happiness and ability to have fun. Be a little flirtatious, and hold his/her hand. You don't have to jump into the sack, but touching is ok. It shows you are ready to go to the next level in the relationship. You don't have to go overboard and make the other person uncomfortable, just be yourself. If the two of you are getting along great and have open communication it is ok to ask them if they are ready to take the relationship to the next level. We don't have to propose marriage, just communicate our desires more effectively. If you don't tell them they have no way of knowing what it is you are seeking in the relationship. Just don't come on too strong, or that could push them in the opposite direction. Hope this helps get your darling closer to you. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;div&gt;&lt;font face="Century Schoolbook" size=4&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&lt;font face="Century Schoolbook" size=4&gt;You have been out on several dates with Mr. Possibilities, things seem to be going better than you expected, you seem&amp;nbsp;rather compatible, and you seem to&amp;nbsp;enjoy each others company. A few&amp;nbsp;days go by and there is no word from him. He isn't calling, you expected him to, after all it seemed things were going quite well between the two of you. There are some reasons the phone has not rang that you may not have considered. What you may not realize is that he may not be as into you as you are him.&amp;nbsp; People like to keep their options open these days. While he has been on two dates with you he could have been on four dates with someone else, it could be possible that he decided to devote his full attention to the other person. He could&amp;nbsp;be sick or injured. He could have got arrested and landed in jail. His telephone could be out of order.&amp;nbsp;His may not have paid his telephone bill, so it is&amp;nbsp;temporarily disconnected. He lost your number, or&amp;nbsp;forgot your number. He dialed the wrong number and another man answered. &amp;nbsp;Maybe he called, you didn't answer and he freaked out. He called but you were too busy talking on the other line. He has other&amp;nbsp;things going on&amp;nbsp;in his life that is taking his time and attention like work. He is so determined&amp;nbsp;to move ahead that he does not want the distraction of anything (including a relationship) getting him&amp;nbsp;off track. He could&amp;nbsp;have just got&amp;nbsp;out of a&amp;nbsp;serious relationship and not yet be ready to commit.&amp;nbsp;It could be the distance, it is possible that&amp;nbsp;long&amp;nbsp;distance is just not for him. You could be the woman of&amp;nbsp;his dreams but if your geographical location is way off his radar it could be a bummer.&amp;nbsp;There are many reasons unknown as to why he hasn't called.&amp;nbsp;Don't sit by the phone waiting for his call. Life&amp;nbsp;goes on.&amp;nbsp;Keep your options open. Maybe someone better could be on the other end of your phone line.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;img src="http://www.keen.com/CommunityServer/aggbug.aspx?PostID=363521" width="1" height="1"&gt;</description><category domain="http://www.keen.com/CommunityServer/blogs/14471119/archive/category/2166.aspx">Guidance For Life</category></item><item><title>YOU&amp;quot;VE BEEN DUMPED!!

&lt;table cellSpacing=0 cellPadding=0 align=center&gt;

&lt;tr&gt;
&lt;td class=zborder2 colSpan=2&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;font face="Century Schoolbook" size=4&gt;Maybe you knew it was coming. Maybe you didn't.&lt;br /&gt;You've been dumped. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;font face="Century Schoolbook" size=4&gt;So, other than moping around in your pajamas, spending quality time with Ben &amp;amp; Jerry, what can you do? Well, clear away that mountain of soggy tissues, and I'll tell you how to get through the worst of it, the first 30 days. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;font size=4&gt;&lt;font face="Century Schoolbook"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Three things:&lt;/b&gt; &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ol&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;font face="Century Schoolbook" size=4&gt;Take care of yourself. &lt;/font&gt;
&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;font face="Century Schoolbook" size=4&gt;Give yourself time to mourn. &lt;/font&gt;
&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;font face="Century Schoolbook" size=4&gt;Move forward. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ol&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;font size=4&gt;&lt;font face="Century Schoolbook"&gt;&lt;b&gt;The first 48 hours.&lt;/b&gt; &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;font face="Century Schoolbook" size=4&gt;The first 48 hours are the toughest. Give yourself at least one full weekend to cry your eyes out, eat junk food and lie around on your couch in a broken-heart coma watching sappy movies or a kung-fu marathon. Try to throw a few comedies into the mix if you can, laughter is good for you. If you want to be alone now, be alone. If you want to be with friends, by all means, invite them to console you. Whatever you do, don't call your ex. Don't e-mail your ex. Don't see your ex. Turn your answering machine on and screen your calls. I'm not saying you should never talk to your ex again, but give yourself at least a month or so to build up your ego again. If you think you might be tempted, by all means, invite a friend over to run defense and keep you away from the phone. Next, force yourself to think of the relationship as over. I know that's tough right now, but it truly is necessary. Grieve for what it was, and consider it dead and gone. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;
&lt;tr&gt;
&lt;td class=zborder&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;font size=4&gt;&lt;font face="Century Schoolbook"&gt;&lt;b&gt;The first week.&lt;/b&gt; &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;font face="Century Schoolbook" size=4&gt;After your first 48 hours, it is important to get off the couch and take a shower. Not just for hygiene reasons, (but trust me, by this time you'll really need it) but because it's now time to start taking action. Take down all photos that include your ex. If you need to have a ceremonial snapshot torching, by all means, go ahead. Put all reminders of your ex (letters, gifts, photos, etc.) in a box and stuff it way in the back of your closet, or better yet, your garage - someplace you won't see it on a regular basis. If you feel yourself starting to idealize your ex, and feel the desire to call him or her, sit down immediately and make a list of all the things about your ex that really annoyed you - the more humorous, the better. Think hard, I know there's something. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;font face="Century Schoolbook" size=4&gt;The way he gave the exact same 22-minute response to every single person who asked how his job was going for three solid years. The psycho-squirrel noises she made when she laughed. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;font face="Century Schoolbook" size=4&gt;The cheap, ugly, green, plastic phone he gave you for Christmas. The way she tried to hold in her sneezes, producing that imploding, snorty noise instead. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;font face="Century Schoolbook" size=4&gt;Whatever you do, don't call your ex. Start returning to your normal life. Take an extra 20 minutes with your appearance this week. Sure, you may not feel like getting dressed at all, but trust me, if you look good, you'll feel even better. Wear something that makes you feel stunning or confident. Nothing smoothes the ragged edges of a recent break-up like a few well-timed compliments. If your weekend on the couch still shows in your face, put some tea bags on your eyelids. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;font face="Century Schoolbook" size=4&gt;Make plans with friends for every Friday and Saturday night for the next month, and stick to them. Get out and go dancing. It may be the last thing you feel like doing, but you'll find it's a fabulous release. The music and physical activity will make you feel tons better. Speaking of which, exercise four times this week. Yeah, I know you won't feel like it, but do it anyway. You need those happy endorphins that exercise brings. Do a little bonding with your pals. Go to a basketball game, or even bowling. Just get out of the house. One last thing for this week, schedule a massage. You need it! &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;font size=4&gt;&lt;font face="Century Schoolbook"&gt;&lt;b&gt;The second week.&lt;/b&gt; &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;font face="Century Schoolbook" size=4&gt;Whatever you do, don't call your ex. Make a detailed list of all your good qualities. Remember, you're a unique, wonderful, person, and someone (probably several someones) will fall madly in love with you, and you with them. Keep your plans with friends every weekend, and by all means, do something physical, or humorous, like going to a comedy club. Work out (three times this week, and for the rest of the break-up survival period), go rock climbing, or dance like the Backstreet Boys in your living room (nobody will see you.) Get your heart rate going. Aside from making your body look good, you'll boost your mood as well. This week is all about pampering yourself. Get a pedicure, or sit in the sauna. You've been through a lot, and you deserve it.Spend some of your newfound time (and probably extra cash, too) on something just for you. Guys, you may be feeling the need for some type of electronic device you've been putting off. Now is the time. Girls, all I can say is, SHOE SHOPPING! Treat yourself to a little something nice this week, and every week for the rest of the month. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;font size=4&gt;&lt;font face="Century Schoolbook"&gt;&lt;b&gt;The last two weeks.&lt;/b&gt; &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;font face="Century Schoolbook" size=4&gt;Whatever you do, don't call your ex. You're halfway through the black period, and the worst is over. This is when you'll start easing back into your pre-girl/pre-guy routine. Be a little selfish with your time, and do exactly what you want to do. You should be focusing on taking care of yourself right now. Now is also the time to start making long-range plans. Make two plans: One plan for a vacation (even if it's three years away,) and one plan for your life. You have a clean slate, what do you want to do? Go back to school? Become a rock star? Learn how to make crawfish traps? No one is holding you back now. Write down your goals, and the steps you'll need to take to reach them. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;font face="Century Schoolbook" size=4&gt;Holy Moly! Before you know it, the entire month has gone by. You're through the thick of it now, and on the road to recovery. Sure, you'll hit some bumps along the way, but you'll live through this. You've made it this far, and you'll be a stronger, wiser person because of it. Someday, you'll meet someone who will love and appreciate you for the amazing person you are. And this break-up, which is so awful now, will just be one forgotten U- turn on your path to true love.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

People meet in all kinds of places. Quit looking for MR or MISS love of my dreams. No one can live up to all of your fantasy expectations. Instead of listing what you must have try listing what would not work for you like different religions, financial background, desire for children, and things that just bother you.&amp;nbsp;Forget about them meeting a long list of requirements or living up to perfection,&amp;nbsp;you could end up alone. Give someone a chance, it is unlikely it will be love at first glance. Otherwise you would have married what's his name from first grade. If he says he isn't looking for a relationship or to settle down, he isn't challenging you he is being honest. So be yourself and be comfortable in your own skin.&amp;nbsp;Admit it didn't work and move on. Guys and gals are everywhere if you look.&amp;nbsp;If you have your eye on someone and you run into this person frequently, yet you are scared to talk to them they are not going to bite so say "hello" and strike up a conversation. Keep it simple but ask for his/her opinion. Once they give it,&amp;nbsp;and&amp;nbsp;he/she sees that you value their opinion, change the topic a bit. Ask something personal but not to personal; something simple like "What kind of music do you like?" Then ask if &amp;nbsp;you can give him/her a call sometime. Another thing you can do is be generous. Offer you seat, to pay their tab, ask if you can help them carry their bags just do something simple. After this simple small gesture, ask if he/she could grab a cup of coffee sometime, or something simple, not a big date but a small one. Ask the person what they do on their off time. Ask if they would like to meet up for an event. Another thing you can do is ask what time it is. If they answer you with something other than the time first it means they do want to have a conversation with you. If they sustain eye contact longer than a few seconds, it is another good sign they want more than the simple hello. If you wink and they laugh, even if it is at something stupid, it could be more than just a simple crush. Make sure to pay them a complement, a real one, not the fake kind, you want it to be sincere keep it realistic. If you had that first date, and it has been 2 days ago and they haven't called you to set up the second date chances are they never will. Most will call you within 24 hours. Guys most ladies don't call to set up a date so call them!&amp;nbsp; If you met the person online, do not fret it usually takes a good four weeks to meet up face to face. Work place romances lead to marriage. Keep in mind if that work place romance doesn't work out your work could suffer.&amp;nbsp; Once the two of you find each other and are starting out on this romantic adventure keep it strong. If you find yourself wanting too much alone time instead of wanting to be with your partner, find out why. Are you bored with them? angry? not ready for commitment? If you don't enjoy being together either work on it or move on. Don't ignore problems when they arise, face them. Do not attack your partner when confronting them. Just remember to say I felt like this other then you did this to me. To argue some is ok, but keep the tone down. Do not get too negative.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;Defiantly do not get too critical or confrontational. &amp;nbsp;Agree to disagree. Everyone goes through rough patches so keep it positive. No one gets along 100% all the time with every topic, so relax.&amp;nbsp;Your match made in heaven could be closer than you think. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&lt;font face="Century Schoolbook" size=4&gt;GOOD LUCK!&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;div&gt;&lt;font face="Century Schoolbook" size=4&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&lt;font face="Century Schoolbook" size=4&gt;When on the first date are you prepared? Here are some tips&amp;nbsp;for helping you make a better impression. Are you concerned with your looks? You do not have to look like a model but grooming and dressing nice&amp;nbsp;go a long way. No one wants to kiss someone with yellow teeth. Before you go on that date make sure you have been using the tooth whitening kit. Ladies have you had a manicure recently? Guys have you cleaned under your nails? Your date is looking at your hands so clean them up! Guys do not wear your work boots, wear clean shoes. Ladies, if you haven't had a pedicure lately&amp;nbsp;don't bother wearing sandals.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;Guys we are glad&amp;nbsp;you worked up a sweat today but the ladies don't want to smell it. Guys take a shower no one wants to smell body odor on the first date. Ladies lay off the perfume, the guys are not looking for the lady of the night. Guys the same goes for you, ladies do not want to smell the cologne-monger . Guys and gals lay off the hair spray, no one want to see a brick on your head. Be more natural. Ladies wear a bit of make up but don't over do&amp;nbsp;it&amp;nbsp;where you look made up. Wear clean clothes that look nice, show some style and class. Ladies, wear a slimming outfit. It is sad, but guys are less forgiving about your weight, so look for an outfit that takes off pounds rather than shows them. Wearing a mini skirt without undies is not a good choice either, dress with respect for yourself.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&lt;font face="Century Schoolbook" size=4&gt;Do not talk about money or how much you hate your job. This will sure send them running for the door.&amp;nbsp;Pay attention to your date, turn off that cell phone. If you seem too distracted with your surroundings, or talk too much to others your date will think you are not that&amp;nbsp;interested. Make good conversation, and have a sense of humor no one wants to&amp;nbsp;have conversations with&amp;nbsp;themselves. On the other hand, guys don't talk about your mom or your ex, same goes&amp;nbsp;for the gals. Ladies don't mention your biological clock, after all this is a date not a family planning session.&amp;nbsp;Having a great conversation will make them want to call on you again. Have a plan for the date, if you just wing it or your date may think you are irresponsible. Go somewhere nice not the fast food drive through.&amp;nbsp;Keep your hands to yourself, no one wants to be&amp;nbsp;out with a horny toad, unless of course&amp;nbsp;you are only looking for&amp;nbsp;a one night stand. We know it may have been a while since your were last intimate with someone, but you don't want&amp;nbsp;appear desperate for affection. It is better that you&amp;nbsp;give the impression of confidence and self assurance.&amp;nbsp;Be polite, road rage&amp;nbsp;will surely drive&amp;nbsp;your date&amp;nbsp;away. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&lt;font face="Century Schoolbook" size=4&gt;By the way I didn't just make this stuff up I heard it on the radio.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&lt;font face="Century Schoolbook" size=4&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&lt;font face="Century Schoolbook" size=4&gt;Much Love,&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;p class=MsoNormal&gt;&lt;font face="Century Schoolbook" size=4&gt;Recently I had lunch with a friend. My friend is a therapist, so it is her natural instinct to give advice. She pointed out that I looked like I had gained a few extra pounds. While I pointed out it wasn’t that I had gained weight , but rather I had been too lazy to work on getting it off. After all it is just 10 pounds! &lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;She proceeded to tell me that excess weight could end up costing more than just your health. Needless to say I will work on these 10 pounds. This information baffled me. So I asked her to explain. So here I am sharing the information to the best of my ability.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;font face="Century Schoolbook" size=4&gt;Everyone gets into ruts and turns to food for comfort. We have all done it, eaten too many cookies, demolished off a pint of ice cream, turned to chocolate for that relaxation, and so on. Instead we should exercise as exercise is one of the best stress relievers. We are obsessed with models and view them as beautiful. We expect everyone to compare to the stick thin models. It is sad but being overweight is a “serious career impediment.” A company is more likely to hire the thin person and pay them more than the overweight person. Plus-size people &lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;can&lt;/em&gt; &lt;/strong&gt;cost an employer more in medical insurance which is why an overweight job applicant may get passed over. Overweight people get passed up for jobs more than any other group. Many overweight applicants recall being virtually assured of a job based on their résumé and phone interview, but when they met the employer face to face, suddenly the job was ‘already filled’ or they didn’t meet qualifications. &lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;It troubles me but overweight people are viewed as lazy, possibly take excessive days of work and are considered an insurance risk. If you think you are being discriminated because of your weight, speak up. Inform the company that you would make a good employee, and that you are healthy. Inform them that you have not made excessive claims on your insurance nor do you take excessive days off. If you know that you are being discriminated against by an employer or potential employer, seek professional advice. This information is not meant to take place of professional advice. &lt;/font&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
