Did you lost what you now realize is the love of your life? Or have you recently come across an old flame you realize you still love? Finding or getting back together with a lost love is the goal of many individuals out there. A lot of people just have this one person they can’t seem to get over. But what if you rekindle an old flame the wrong way? If you got a second chance, are you sure you will still get a third chance? It’s not very likely, is it?

So if you want to rekindle and old flame and keep it burning, you have to take things one step at a time. Here’s a list you can go through.

1. Assess your desire. Before you do something to rekindle that old flame, first ask yourself whether you really want to rebuild that relationship. When we lose something important to us, our tendency is to miss the things that we love about what we lost. This often clouds our judgment and keeps us from seeing the negative side of the relationship. Remember that if you rekindle that lost love, there is a big chance that all the negative aspects of the past relationship will still be there along with all the positive ones. So before you plant the seeds of hope in yourself and in the other person, make sure of your decision. If not, both of you may get unnecessarily get hurt for the second time.

2. Assess your intention. Also, ask yourself what your real intention for rekindling the old flame is. Some people want to rebuild a lost relationship because they feel sorry for themselves or because they want to get back at the person who has hurt them in the past. Some people go back to past loves when they break up with a recent love or they do so because they hit an emotional plateau. In such cases, do re-assess your decision and wait some time before you take any steps. You never know, the desire may fade eventually.

3. Focus on the present. When you are sure about your desire to rekindle your old love, you can start taking the initial steps. But make sure that you keep your eyes focused on the present time. Do not, at any cost, try to bring the past into the present relationship; not the positive, and not the negative. The positive points of the past relationship may keep you stuck on a fantasy mode, which may no longer hold true due to all the changes that have occurred in both of you. The negative points of the past relationship, on the other hand, such as past hurts, hidden resentment, and old issues, should not be taken against each other.

One way to keep your focus is to use subliminal messages that help the past completely fade away, even the roots that are stubbornly embedded in the subconscious. Subliminal messages are the most effective tools that can help cleanse away and heal you from the past so you can start anew with your old love.

4. Get rid of the negatives. Think back for a while on the reason why you broke up in the past. There may still be some aspects of your personality that the other person won’t want to go back to. If there are any old habits that can get in the way of you getting your old love back, you can also use subliminal messages to get rid of these barriers. This way, your old love will see a new, better you and fall in love with you all over again.

Acne Prevention. How To Determine Your Skin Type And How Best To Choose The Right Acne Products

Skin type plays an important part in how acne affects you and what is required to address is.

Your skin type will also influence which types of products you should use to treat your acne and typically care for your skin.

Determine Your Skin Type. There are some introductory questions you should ask yourself to assist you get started;

1). How frequently do you break out in acne?

2). Do you suffer from blackheads?

3). What do your pores look like after washing with soap?

4). how does your skin look and feel?

5). Do you have facial lines?

Acne Prevention. Your Type Of Skin Explained.

By asking yourself these questions, you will be able to determine what types of products will work best for you and how your skin might react to them. There are three basic skin types. They are oily, normal, or dry.

However, this does not mean your skin can not be a combination of them. You may have any one of these skin types, or a combination of them, such as normal to oily, or normal to dry, and there are different products for caring for each.

Acne treatment and your skin type.

Each skin type is characterized by different things such as texture, oil production, and frequency of breakouts. People with dry skin do not usually suffer many breakouts, and rarely ever have blackheads.

This is because oil encourages breakouts by clogging up pores and blackheads are stimulated by oil. If your skin is dry, you are not producing very much oil, so, you should be less prone to as many acne episodes.

*

Dry skin is also characterized by nearly visible pores, and may feel dry and tight after washing. Most people with dry skin are fair skinned, and often develop facial lines earlier in life. This skin type also burns easily.

*

People with normal skin suffer occasional breakouts, and may have blackheads that come out mostly in the t-zone; the region on either side of the nose and on the forehead. Pores frequently appear visible in the t-zone, and the skin may feel tight after washing, but will soon become comfortable with oil in t-zone.

The skin coloring is generally fair to medium, and a few lines may appear early on, mostly around the eyes. This skin type when exposed to the sun, usually burns, then tans.

*

People with oily skin frequently suffer regular breakouts with blackheads. The pores are often increased, and after washing the face may be oily, with the nose and forehead quickly becoming shiny.

The skin coloring is often olive to dark. Facial lines are generally very few to none in occurance, and oily skin typically stays preserved longer and does not age as quickly as do the other skin types. When exposed to the sun, this skin type rarely burns, but rather tans easily.

Acne prevention. Understanding the best product for your type of skin.

Once you determine your skin type,you will be able to determine products developed especially for it. There are a number of products on the market for treating each skin type, as well as for combination skin.

Once you discover a regimen of products that work for you, you can begin treating your acne correctly.

IntroductionThe goal of hiring is to get the best candidate for the job. The challenge is finding that best candidate. How do you reach them? In the present economic times each open position brings in 100’s of resumes. How do you handle them? It is also to be expected that 95% of resumes received are not appropriate for the particular job. How do you identify the best? Recruiting cost which includes publicity, your time and recruiting commissions for 3rd party search firms add up. How do you reduce them? This article provides answers to the above questions.How to Reach CandidatesTraditionally, companies used referrals, networking, advertised in local newspapers or went to a search firm. Referrals and networking are still the lowest cost options. That failing, companies now have numerous options. Internet job boards are a good place to start. Companies such as Monster (www.monster.com), Hotjobs (www.hotjobs.com) and CareerBuilder (www.careerbuilder.com) spend a lot of money advertising to the prospective job seeker. In 2003, Monster’s advertising budget was $115 million. This attracts sizable traffic – 1.6 million daily visitors and about 36 million resumes in their database. This is not a pitch for Monster.com but these numbers are indicators of the reach of online job boards. Monster.com, HotJobs.com, CareerBuilder.com and numerous other job boards are a strong source of applicants for any job. Your website can be a good source of applicants. The problem here is traffic. How many come to your site looking for jobs. Publicizing jobs on your website costs you nothing, so go ahead but you may not be able to generate enough applicant volume from your website alone. To paraphrase Willy Sutton’s famous answer, Why do you go to the job boards Willy? Cause that’s were the jobs are. The best way to build a sizable applicant volume for sure is to advertise not just in 1 job board but on multiple boards. You can choose 2 big boards and one niche board like your local newspaper (in Atlanta, you can use www.ajcjobs.com ) or specialty boards like emplawyer.com (for lawyers), jobsinthemoney.com (finance), engineerjobs.com (engineers) etc. You should also publicize the open position on your website.(Contact the author for a free, categorized listing of popular job boards using Alexa Traffic Rank) How to Handle Resume VolumeAutomatically! If you advertise in say 3 job boards and your website, you can expect at least 200 resumes. You do not want them coming to your e-mail box as this would require you to open each mail, save the resume etc for each and every one of them. This becomes tedious and time consuming. You want them to be automatically routed to a database or a resume management system. Your resume management system should be able to process the incoming resumes, extract information from the resume, and build a list of applicants with their name, contact information and a summary, so that you can glance at the list to see how your publicity is working. Sophisticated resume management systems go a step forward and extract experience, education, summary and objectives from the resume. This is especially useful in identifying the best candidates without actually reading every resume. A good resume management system would integrate with your web site, allow applicants to easily upload their resume, handle resumes that come by e-mail and process them with zero manual intervention. How to Short List the Best ApplicantsOver 90% of resumes that you receive will not be appropriate for the job. Reading each and every one of them is time consuming and tedious. Some resume management systems allows you to set filters to identify relevant resumes. The filters are keywords that you can specify for each job and the filter will check the resume if those words are present. They are only partially effective as they are looking for particular words in a resume and they may find them in places that have no relevance to the qualification of the candidate. They do not understand in what context those words were used. You can use advanced technology like resume match technology that can automatically select the best candidates not on the basis of a few keywords but on the basis of your entire job requirement. This technology considers the resume like an actual recruiter; it takes into account the objective of the applicant, the applicant’s experience, skills and education and matches them with each requirement in a job description. This also understands that not all requirements are the same, and that some are more important than the others, and ranks the candidates accordingly. With a click of a button and a well defined job description, you would be able to shortlist the candidates in under 10 seconds. How to Reduce Recruiting CostYour recruiting costs depend on whether you do it yourself or you avail the services of an external agency. Do it yourself requires that you commit time and resource before you even conduct the first interview. Time and costs can be significantly reduced if you have a backend resume management system in place that can automatically receive, consolidate and short list candidates without any manual intervention. External agencies work with you on a contingency or a retainer basis. Contingency firms charge you anywhere between 20 – 30% of hiring salary. Retainer firms charge an upfront retainer and charge you by the hour. Such firms primarily focus on senior executives. You need to decide if you have the necessary time and resource to devote to recruiting and remember, the time spend on recruiting is time not spent on your business. If 30% commission is on the high side, you can consider fixed price services. These services charge you a fixed price for attracting the right candidates, help you select the best candidates and assist you in the hiring process.(Contact the author for a free, Recruitment Cost Estimator tool. This tool estimates your recruiting cost. It also compares “Do it Yourself” costs with commissioned recruiting and fixed price services.)Conclusion Cleary define the ideal candidate for the job. Make use of internet job boards, your web site, your local newspaper etc. to attract applicants. Have a backend system that eliminates manual processing of resumes. The system should also be able to select and rank the best candidates for a job. Compare the cost of doing it yourself, paying commissions and availing the service of a fixed price service. Happy Hiring!!(Contact the author for “Tips for a smoother Hiring”, a white paper with tips and hints to make your hiring go smoother.)

If you are looking for natural skin care recipes that you can whip up in your own kitchen, they are simpler than you might think. Just remember that the benefits are limited when it comes to protecting against skin-aging.

Advanced cellular rejuvenation technology has revealed that the compounds needed to prevent and reverse the visible signs of aging are naturally occurring. They are found in plants and foods. Many of them are antioxidants.

The problem is extracting the antioxidants and using them in exactly the right quantities in order to provide results without causing irritation. Let’s look at the antioxidant vitamin A for a moment.

There is a prescription cream on the market designed to treat acne and reverse wrinkles. It is a synthetic form of the antioxidant vitamin A. The side effects that accompany the use of the cream include redness, itching and irritation.

The nut of the Shea tree is rich in vitamin A and E, as well as essential fatty acids. Shea butter has long been recognized for its abilities to soften, smooth and rejuvenate the skin’s appearance. There are no negative side effects accompanying its use.

People in Africa had natural skin care recipes that included the use of the Shea nut, because that is where it grows. Today, people throughout the world have access to premium quality Shea butter. There is no need to try and make something similar on your own. You just have to be careful about artificial additives like preservatives and fragrance ingredients.

If you do not want to buy a ready-made product, you might try using grape seed or olive oil as a moisturizer. While they do not contain vitamin A, they are rich in vitamin E and the essential fatty acids that the skin’s layers need to be healthy.

Lots of natural skin care recipes contain some variety of honey. It has been used for thousands of years to speed healing and soothe burns. The only problem with using honey straight out of a bottle has to do with the sticky feeling. Companies that specialize in making skincare products dehydrate the honey and mix it with grape seed or other oils to address that problem.

One variety of honey is called Manuka. Scientists have found that it has antioxidant and antibacterial activity. It can be dehydrated without losing those benefits.

You might use dehydrated manuka in your own natural skin care recipes, although finding the ingredient would likely be difficult. Not many manufacturers have been successful at the dehydration process. Those that are typically sell only to cosmetic manufacturers.

With ingredients like manuka honey, Shea butter, grape seed and olive oil, practically all of the conditions that affect the skin’s health can be addressed. Those ingredients will also help to fight the signs of aging and possibly reverse them.

There is one more ingredient to look for. That one is coenzyme Q10. You will not find it in anyone’s natural skin care recipes, but the better manufacturers include it in all of their anti-aging creams. You might want to find out why.

What are the factors to consider then during the action treat? The two standard factors which should be appropriated into thoughtfulness are: –

The outgo per unit of dig and

The job term the tool faculty learning in

Lets address much in information these two factors. The substance of cost per object of dig effectuation how often does it cost to unveil per object volume of the relevant found in the job situation. The factors to take into informing when working out the value per unit of production are :-

The situation of the job, as a larger job may reassert the higher outgo of a outsize tool.

In fauna entirety, there is the joint outgo of production or loud to be reasoned. If a humongous excavator is misused, these costs may be lower than if a undersized one as a overlarge organization instrument handle bigger rocks finer than a dinky one.

If ruined pitch is to be excavated, the large-size pail will touch bigger independent pieces stubby and a last creation is required, either quaternate bitty machines or a sole largish one can be victimized.

Other compute which is ofttimes missed is the type of truckage units visible. If teensy shipping units are victimised then the size of the shovel should be smallish, where as if thumping or heavy truckage units are victimized then a sizable shovel should be victimized. Finally it is also grave to game hoes, beside the above, there are more factors to debate and these are:-

Maximum digging depth required

Minimum digging depth purchasable

Employed length for dig and dumping

dumping stage required

dig dimension required ( excavate action)

clearance for bearer, superstructure and pole

hosting susceptibleness.

If the occupation is a trenching cognition, then the essential fear is to check the hoe\’s ability to hollow lengthwise size per unit of clip with the piping / television laying creation. Usually, the intensity of tangible enraptured is not the ruminate.

How to make a Fruit and Veg Kitchen Clock

by

S.Roberts

A beautiful gift idea for anyone who spends a lot of time in the kitchen.

You will need…

4oz (100g) Plain Flour

3oz (75g) Salt

Hot Water

Paints

Spray varnish or clear lacquer Clock mechanism and clock hands (you will find these at craft shops or Maplin)

To make the Dough…

Begin by dissolving the salt in a small amount of hot water. Add the flour and mix to form dough. Add cold water if necessary but don t make the dough too sticky.

Now you re ready to model your clock face.

You need to start off with a base. Roll out some of the dough with a rolling pin. Use a large dinner plate or a tea tray to cut out a circle from the dough. This is the base of the clock face. Make a hole in the centre of the clock face, which is large enough to pass the clock spindle through with ease.

Roll two long sausages that are long enough to reach around the edge of the base. Twist the sausages together to create a nice rope effect. Fix the twisted strip around the base with a little cold water for glue.

Add fruit and veg to your clock face…

Use your hands to model and mould fruit or vegetable shapes out of dough, to put in place of the main numbers on the clock face – 12, 3, 6, and 9. Don t make the fruit and vegetables so large that the hands can not move past them when the clock is finished.

Once you have made your clock face put it in the oven on a low heat for two hours. It is in the oven to dry out, not to bake so keep the heat low.

When it comes out of the oven, leave it for a couple of days to dry out completely. Then paint, spray varnish and leave to dry.

Push the clock spindle through the hole and push on the hands. The mechanism has a hole for hanging the clock on the wall.

Public Relations NYC Firms Ask: What does the client want?

by

Kevin Waddel

This business would be great if it werent for clients That quote and variations thereto has been ascribed to a top ad executive some years ago and can probably be applied to any business that relies heavily on human interaction such as public relations. Those of us who labor on the public relations NYC scene undoubtedly feel that way at times.

What are clients looking for from their New York City public relations firms? Todays clients are more demanding than ever before. From their public relations NYC firms, they want pragmatic, reliable, professional and extraordinarily well connected professionals, individuals who maintain working relationships with the local and overseas media as well as relationships with important analysts be they financial or industry. For public relations NYC executives to be truly successful, they need to have an insider\’s understanding of their clients industries. Not only that but the media is requiring public relations NYC professionals to understand their needs and not to waste their time.

How to judge success? At one point a successful program was judged by the volume of press clippings generated (before electronic retrieval / distribution, I suspected that clients weighed the clip books on a scale to determine how much to pay their public relations NYC firms). Today, the Public Relations NYC

firm must utilize every available method to communicate a company\’s story and meet a clients business objectives and communications goals. Press clippings and appearances on influential tv programs are fine; however, was the message delivered? Did the cash register ring? Were perceptions altered? In addition to generating media interest, public relations NYC firms can analyze the trends, recommend changes and resume the dialogue with important constituents.

Public relations NYC firms are placing a high value on the relationships with their clients and the media and work hard to ensure that these relationships thrive. In addition, the need to meet or exceed public relations goals has never been greater than it is today given the highly competitive world in which operate.

Public relations NYC practitioners have clearly evolved and now include expert teams of seasoned professionals that can handle every communications need, from social media to mainstream press, developing local, national and international public relations campaigns to audience-specific outreach efforts, connecting clients with key influencers, launching or repositioning products and services, media training, crisis management, and corporate communications including M&A (merger or acquisition) for your employees, investors and clients.

Property owners might have to choose between asphalt and concrete. The choice can be a tough one, but people might end up using Concrete Contractors in Urbana IL to pour concrete once they find out all the benefits of concrete. For the most part, things that are paved with asphalt will need more maintenance when compared to things paved using concrete. Business owners know how inconvenient it can be to have crews working on their parking lots while customers are coming and going. Such disruptions can even cause potential customers to pass by a business. Who wants to deal with traffic congestion in a parking lot?

There are other reasons why people might choose to have Concrete Contractors in Urbana IL pour concrete. Concrete is simply more durable than asphalt. While asphalt might last two decades, concrete can last longer than three decades. Potholes in asphalt can severely damage tires, rims, and other parts of vehicles. People also have to figure in overall costs. When the amount of money needed for maintenance is considered, asphalt can end up costing a person many times what concrete costs. For people who want their yards to have more appeal, decorative concrete is an option. Decorative concrete can look amazing.

Some people also factor in environmental concerns when they work with A1 Pavement Maintenance or other contractors. Those who are concerned with the environment will be happy to know that concrete is 100 percent recyclable. In fact, some evidence points to it being one of the most recycled material that is used in the building and paving industries. Maintenance also plays a part in concrete’s environmental impact. Since asphalt needs more maintenance, it requires more energy and resources throughout the years. People looking to reduce their negative impact on the environment should definitely use concrete for they homes and businesses.

Concrete also doesn’t get as affected by hot weather as asphalt does. When it gets extremely hot outside, objects can actually cause indentations in asphalt. Bicycle kickstands, heels, and heavy vehicles can all cause damage to hot asphalt. Although asphalt is the cheaper option as far as upfront costs are concerned, people should really look at the many things concrete has to offer.

Looking beyond the ordinary when it comes to dressing up windows or doors, most people generally think venetian blinds. However, theres a whole world out there that stretches beyond venetian blinds.

There was a time when the word shutter was something you generally associated with hurricanes and storms. But selecting and fitting the right type of window shutters will compliment your personal style and heighten the appeal of your building or home especially buildings and homes with traditional and historical designs.

Heres an architectural style guide:

For Victorian style homes, select flat panels or Louvered shutters or Plantation Shutters. Types of Louvered shutters include aluminium shutters, plantation shutters, basswood shutters, cedar shutters and smart wood shutters.

For Italianate style homes especially stone texture and the arch top windows, select radial-top louvered shutters. The best place to buy these would be at Apollo Roman Blinds and External Louvre Shutters (http://apolloblinds.com.au/louvre-shutters/), ask them for custom top shutters.

For Colonial or Federal type homes select a mix of panels and operable louvers i.e. panels for the ground floor and operable louvers for the floors above.

For Georgian style homes choose (pitch black and slate stone) louvers or a recessed or raised panels placed along the windows.

For homes of Spanish or Mediterranean designs, Board and Batten shutters, such as Plantation Shutters Australia are the perfect match because they contribute to the allure or Mediterranean or Spanish design.

For Ranch or Cape Cod style homes you can choose any type of shutter that compliments your design preferences. Most designers go with Board and Batten shutters because they add character but Panels and Louvers will look equally wonderful.

Finally, before you go out and select your shutters, you should first decide on a panel configuration and then decide which shutter style to use.

The shutters:

Louvre Shutters are available in a wide choice of materials ranging from aluminium to handcrafted timber to faux wood.

Modern day Louvre Shutters or Aluminium Shutters are chip resistant; powder coated and can span wider areas than traditional shutters.

Plantations Shutters at Apollo Blinds, Australia are available in Western Red Cedar or Basswood Timber.

Basswood Shutters are made from Basswood which is a medium density timber (being neither too heavy nor too light) and therefore ideal for making Custom Basswood Shutters and shutters. The timber is kiln dried to about 10% moisture.

Cedar Shutters are made from Western Red Cedar and are available in blends of light to medium and medium to dark. They can be ordered with an oiled or painted finish as standard.

Imported from Canada, Venetian Blinds offer the best insulation properties and has a lovely natural colour, wood grain and texture variation throughout.

Smartwood or Plantation Shutters are made with either Eco wood or Duratec. The former is PVC made from polymer foam. It is a solid, non-toxic, synthetic material. Duratec has the polymer blade but is combined with the lightweight Western Red Cedar frame.

Roller Shutters combine the smooth good looks of the Ecoguard Roller Shutters system with the privacy and sense of security we all need in todays world. European designed and made in Australia, Apollos Roller Shutters & Roller Blinds Melbourne are tailor made to fit your windows.
