Canadian Marketing to the Rescue!!

As a small business owner I need a variety of web/graphic/marketing things done. I had no idea where to start , mainly because I didn’t know ANYTHING  about this “stuff”. I didn’t want some design firm to speak jargon I didn’t understand and charge me prices I wouldn’t understand. I was reffered to a Canadian company called 1079 Creative Solutions. These ladies took the time and energy to completely explain everything I needed to know. From web design,content, logos,book covers (yep book covers),brochures, and video trailers, this company held my hand every step of the way. My business and rankings have grown…all this over the phone!  This is my way of saying thanks…

Senator Jim DeMint Envisions Obama’s Waterloo.

And I can breakaway to the better life
Where the shackles never hold me down
I’m gonna make a way for each happy day
As my life turns around…

“Breakaway”- The Beach Boys

Last week, Republican Senator Jim DeMint made it pretty clear why the opponents of health care reform are fighting so hard. As he told a special interest attack group, “If we’re able to stop Obama on this, it will be his Waterloo. It will break him.” Here’s how the President responded:

Think about that. This isn’t about me. This isn’t about politics. This is about a health care system that is breaking America’s families, breaking America’s businesses and breaking America’s economy. And we can’t afford the politics of delay and defeat when it comes to health care. Not this time, not now. There are too many lives and livelihoods at stake.

With Congress only days away from finalizing their plans for reform, it’s time to stand up with the President and fight back against this disastrous brand of old-style politics. So we need as many people as possible to publicly support the President’s principles for health care reform and call on Congress to act.

Before the first full votes in Congress, we’ll publish the signatures in newspaper ads across the nation, to make sure your voice is heard.

Watch President Obama’s full response, then add your name in support of reform. Or if you’ve already signed, please forward this message to every one of your friends and neighbors so they can join you.

Sign the declaration-

The President is more dedicated than ever to passing health care reform that satisfies the three requirements he’s been talking about for months: Health care reform must reduce costs, guarantee choice — including the choice of a strong public insurance option — and ensure all Americans have quality, affordable health care.

If we do not reform our broken health care system this year, we will only shackle future generations with spiraling costs and deteriorating care. The cost of inaction is simply more than this country can afford.

But the special interests who profit from the status quo won’t go down without a fight. The ads, the smears, and the attacks — targeting both President Obama and members of Congress who support reform — will only get worse. So it’s crucial that we show huge backing before Congress finalizes their plans this month.

Stand with President Obama on health care reform:

Thanks for standing up for change.

Write to your Editor About Heathcare Reform.

Key leaders in Washington are now saying that any health care reform will—and must—include a public health insurance option.1,2

The big challenge now? Opponents of reform are trotting out weak half-measures and calling them “public plans,”3 with the goal of leaving us with a public health insurance option in name only. The latest is a proposal for “co-ops”—small, regional insurers that would be too weak to bring costs down or compete with existing private insurance.4

We have to push back right away and with a clear message: Americans demand a strong public health insurance option, one that is available to everyone, national in scope with real bargaining clout, ready to go on day one, and truly public.

Can you write a letter to the editor about how important it is to include a strong public health insurance option in reform this year? Our tool makes writing a letter really simple. You can send the letter right from our website—it only takes a few minutes:

http://www.moveon.org/r?r=51500&id=16403-11381997-MS4Ur_x&t=3

If you’ve never written a letter to the editor before, now is the time to send your first. The letters page is one of the most widely read—and most important—in local newspapers. Members of Congress and their staffs read it to understand how their constituents are feeling. And the media read it as feedback on their coverage.

Here are a few key points for your letter on what a strong public health insurance option should look like:

* Available to all of us: A strong public health insurance option should be available to anyone who chooses to participate. If you like your current plan, you can keep it; if you want to participate in the public health insurance plan, you can choose to do so.

* A national plan with real bargaining clout: In order to truly control costs and compete with private health insurance plans, a strong public health insurance option must be available nationwide.

* Ready on day one: Every day we wait on real reform, health care costs continue to rise. A strong public health insurance option right out of the gate is key to building a competitive program that will help control costs.

* A truly public plan: To ensure it’s held to the highest standards of accountability, a public health insurance option must be truly publicly run—accountable and transparent to Congress and to voters.

A robust public health insurance option is the linchpin of real reform that will help bring costs down and provide coverage for all Americans. If thousands of us write to our local papers, we can make sure our representatives in Washington understand how crucial it is to voters like us. Please click here to get started:

My Favorite Psychics and Now Vote for Yours!

The gentle waves of love in motion
And the warmth of summer sun
In your love I need no compass
My direction has begun
Could you be an angel sent from god
No one ever could have told me how
No one ever could have told me how
Heaven could be here on earth

“Heaven” – Carl Wilson

I’ve been a Psychic Medium for over fifteen years and I meet a lot of great people, some of them psychic. A question I get often is “who are your favorite psychic mediums?” Favorites? hmmm…

My favorites may not be yours. I understand that. I chose these four because I trust them, they are accurate, they love what they do, and have a sense of humor. These psychics deliver the message without a lot of vague references to otherworldly dimensions and the like. All the mentioned psychics use their real names. I think its kind of weird to change your name to “astrocueball7” just because you can talk to dead people.

When these guys have to explain otherworldly “stuff”, they do so concisely and patiently.

So here are my four favorite Psychic Mediums.  I was going to call it my Top 5 and include yours truly but I talk to myself enough already!  But here is my link – http://www.RickyWood.net

1)  Amy Berry – hails from Ogden, Utah.  Amy is a down to earth and compassionate Psychic Medium.  Her style is soothing yet to the point. I truly enjoy working with Amy and  I am planning on doing workshops with her in the future.  Check out her website at www.aim2inspire.net

2) Joe LoBrutto – is Florida’s rising Psychic Medium.  He has an uncanny ability to connect with those who have crossed over.   Joe’s messages are clear and concise. His internet talk shows are very informative. Look for Joe’s book – Is There More to Life than What We Know – at his website – www.psychicmediumjoseph.com

3) Holly Matthews– Just wonderful. Gifted. Precise. I highly recommend Holly for those clients who are “newbies”. Her patient and loving readings are easy to understand. As a Reiki Master her healing abilities have helped many in the Gilbert,Arizona area. Here’s her site http:// www.azspiritualmedium.com .

4) Pat McKenna– This medicine woman has quite the reputation and all of it is excellent. She continues to use mediumship as an artform. She blends present and pastlife information to give incredible guidance. Her connection to her guides just blows me away. And this was over the phone. Her web home is here                                              http://pat-mckennaonline.com

Well there it is. My list. Feel free to comment. In the future I will do a post on readers favorite psychic mediums based on readers vote…. via the comment section.

Sign the Petition to Produce a “Jan and Dean” CD Box Set!

In Hawaii there’s a place known as Waimea Bay
Where the best surfers in the world come to stay
And ride the wild surf they come to try
To conquer those waves some 30 feet high

REFRAIN
Ride ride ride the wild surf
Ride ride ride the wild surf
Ride ride ride the wild surf
Gotta take that one last ride

Surf fever brings them here to meet the test
And hanging round the beach you’ll see the best
They’re waxed up and ready just waiting for
The surf to build up on the northern shore

“Ride the Wild Surf” -Jan and Dean

This is something I’ve always wanted to see. A Jan and Dean CD box set. Evidently there are many other fans who want the same.

There is an online petition to have the powers that be to produce such a gem. Read on…

To:  EMI / Capitol

This is a petition calling for a Box Set CD Release for Jan & Dean.

From late 1950s R&B, to Surf music, and the Psychedelic era, Jan & Dean produced 26 chart singles between 1958 and 1966. Sixteen of these were national Top 40 hits on the Billboard and Cash Box charts, seven of which reached the national Top 10. Four of Jan & Dean’s albums also made the national Top 40 during that period.

In April 1966, Jan Berry was critically injured in an automobile accident, resulting in brain damage and partial paralysis. From 1966 onward, Jan & Dean made new music separately, and occasionally together. They hit the road again in the late 1970s, during Jan Berry’s high-profile fight to overcome the effects of traumatic brain injury. This story was told on national television in the highly rated film “Deadman’s Curve” (1978), which paved the way for “Phase II” of Jan & Dean’s road career. They toured consistently throughout the 1980s and 1990s, and into the new millennium. Following Jan Berry’s untimely death in March 2004, Dean continues to honor the music with live concert appearances.

Jan Berry has now been dead for more than three years, and it is long past time for Jan & Dean to be honored with a comprehensive Box Set CD Release. There are many options for such a package, including the superior original mono mixes, and well as various outtakes and backing tracks. There is enough of a fan base and market to warrant such a package.

As a songwriter and singer, Jan Berry had his first Top 10 hit in 1958, before Phil Spector. As an arranger and producer (signed first to Nevins-Kirshner and then to Screen Gems), Jan Berry worked with Hollywood’s elite studio musicians long before Beach Boys leader Brian Wilson did the same.

EMI now holds Jan & Dean’s Screen Gems catalog, encompassing their most famous hits and album cuts.

Artists who achieved less success than Jan & Dean during their careers have been given the Box Set treatment. It’s now time for Jan & Dean to have their own comprehensive Box Set career retrospective. This would be a popular released for EMI, or it could be farmed out to another label, such as Shout Factory.
