    Google has now expanded their Froogle service so that it is available on WML-enabled cellular phones. Most newer cell phones that can connect to the Internet have this capability.

    Users just need to enter wml.froogle.com in their cell phone browser, enter their product search terms, and scroll through results to find what they’re looking for. The biggest advantage of this Froogle Wireless feature for consumers is the ability to comparison shop, no matter where they are.

    Most people who have shopped on the Internet know you can often find significantly lower prices online if you are willing to wait for shipment. The problem in the past was that it was difficult to comparison shop between virtual merchants and brick & mortar stores.

    As an example, when most of us are shopping at our local computer store, and notice they have blank CDs on sale, our first instinct is to stock up because the price looks so good by comparison to their regular price. But with an Internet-ready cell phone and Froogle Wireless, you would be able to search Froogle right from the store, and compare blank CD prices from online merchants with the sale price at the store.

    Here are a few things I learned along the way that I believe it takes to make a champion in your own heart.

    Hope:

    Deep in side you only need a small amount of HOPE to get you to the next day. In the beginning of my career that?s all I had.

    Belief:

    Confidence can grow inside. If you don?t have it, take your ego out of it and sooner or later bodybuilding will give it to you. Whether it comes from you or someone else, you really have to belief. For me, I had two friends that believed in my first, then after a while they began to rub off on me.

    Pure Motives:

    Have pure motives of being healthy verses just looking good. If you have desires to truly feel better health wise and about your self, then you will have more motivation in the down times. Early on, I started to feel the benefits both physically and emotionally of what bodybuilding was doing to me.

    Here are some common mistakes people make that keep them from being Champions!

    1. Egos: In many ways most people allow their egos to defeat them and get in the way of the full potential.

    Surge in baby-boomer credit defaults

    0 Comments | Dominion Post; Wellington, New Zealand, Oct 8, 2009 | by WEIR James

    BABY boomers getting credit to buy big screen plasma televisions and furniture are running up many more bad debts than a year ago.

    For baby boomers, aged 44 to 62, credit defaults surged by 19.4 per cent for the year to September, according to Veda Advantage.

    Overall consumer defaults listed with Veda were up 6.48 per cent on the previous year.

    “The lifestyles of the baby boomers are coming home to roost,” Veda managing director John Roberts said. Veda is New Zealand’s biggest credit checking company.

    A credit default means the company has given up trying to recover a debt and has passed it on to a debt collection company or written it off.

    Baby boomers “are defaulting on debts mounted up over years which they can now no longer service. The recession has seen many baby boomers lose their jobs while others have had their wealth eroded.”

    The big rise in defaults for that generation related to “retail finance” on deals offered by big chain stores with no interest or repayments for two years and no deposit to buy televisions and furniture.

    “That had the highest percentage of defaults. We suspect baby boomers bought into those deals two or three years ago. Suddenly, the first payment is due, but they may have lost their jobs and they are struggling to pay,” Mr Roberts said.

    Big chains charged 20 per cent or more for such deals on unsecured loans because of the risk.

    Defaults for those aged under 28, the so-called Gen Ys, actually fell 2.27 per cent in the year to September, a period which took in two quarters of recession.

    Two years ago, Generation Y people took on a lot of debt and then defaulted on it. Since then, they had pulled back on borrowing so much

    Self
    worth and security are the primary root reasons for our
    propensity to become addicted.

    Example: An invitation lands inside your mailbox and many
    people that you know and don?t know are going to be
    there. Feeling unsecure about your abilities, you summon
    up the courage to consume three or four drinks to take off
    the edge and loosen yourself before the event takes place.

    This concept seems to work and now you don?t just do it
    for regular functions, you begin to use it as a crutch more
    frequently. Your workplace may be the next testing ground
    or worst, at home.

    Another example is when women seek out the same type of
    man as a patterned behavior because they feel within
    themselves that they simply do not deserve better. This self
    worth can manifest itself into many variations of an
    addictive personality or patterned behavior.

    What would happen if we completely abolished all of our
    addictions, whether big or small, serious or not? Would we
    be forfeiting a part of our very fiber, the weave that keeps
    us together?

    Not only can the mind play tricks on itself and make it
    believe that it needs something, but it can also become lucid
    and understand that it can stand alone without the
    assistance of external stimuli to artificially boost its worth
    or security.

    Obviously, the latter is where we would all love to be,
    however, no one can break obsessive patterns unless they
    are understood, acknowledged, and then taken apart
    methodically.

    This must come from within the person!

    Analyzing your own behaviors from dusk to dawn and
    understanding that every action and decision has an end
    result of good or bad consequences, can prompt the ?ball to
    suddenly move forward.?

    If denial skews logic even after acknowledging that
    negatives come out of specific actions, then additional
    introspection should be indicated or an external intervention
    employed.

    If you let your security and self worth derive from your
    past, then your past will always haunt you.

    They will be able to figure out the cost.

    Tools needed:

    Air gun nailer (makes the job go quicker unless you’re REALLY into swinging a hammer)

    Safety glasses

    Post hole digger (if you’re ok with blisters) or a power auger (Make sure someone instructs you on how to use the tool, and carefully follow all safety precautions. These mechanical beasts don’t know the difference between your foot and the ground when they start digging)

    Small sledge hammer

    Shot line

    Type N quick drying cement

    Regardless of the type of wood you use, the nails should last as long as the fence, so choose galvanized nails if at all possible.

    The number and placement of the posts you use will be determined by the distance of your fence. A good rule of thumb is to space them between 6 to 8 feet apart. Once you’ve determined post placement, you’re ready to dig your holes. The general guideline for setting posts is to place at least one-third of the length of each pole in the ground.

    What I like to do is put in my corner posts first and use them as a guide to get all the subsequent posts to line up staright.

    A strange thing happened as soon as I hit the save button. The file reformatted itself. Hyperlinks were placed on all of the key words (as I already mentioned some) that were found in the file. But who placed those links?

    When I clicked on the link, it took me to the same page with the hundreds of products. I got very scared because I felt like I was losing control of my computer. From my previous experience (but not as extreme), I’ve learned that the virus always stays in touch with the hacker’s server, constantly transferring information about my activities gathered from the registry.

    This looked like a very serious virus. So I immediately unplugged my Internet connection. This way, the hacker was no longer going to be able to pull information from my registry, and I was going to face the virus without any additional input by the hacker.

    But regardless.

    Actually it makes for a great road trip or weekend getaway if you are in the Southeast. To some people Atlanta is their New York when it comes to shopping and nightlife. I mean, we do have the only IKEA for miles and miles…

    So what’s new in Atlanta? For starters nobody down here ever says Hotlanta. So please check that phrase at the city limits. Head downtown to the new trendy Glenn Hotel and you’ll discover b.e.d. b.e.d. is a restaurant/lounge combo great for people watching and sipping cocktails with friends. Other b.e.d.s are in NY and Miami, but somehow Atlanta is lucky enough to get the third one. Not sure who we bribed to jump ahead of Vegas and other cities, but we are damn glad your’re here.

    Financial planners formulate programs to provide the most effective cost-volume-profit relationship. It?s the job of financial planners to analyze the financial results of operations, report the facts to the top management and make recommendations on future operations of the firm.

    To do all these functions efficiently, financial planners first need to establish the financial objectives of the enterprise. Both long-term and short-term objectives should be established for the effective utilization of the financial resources. Then comes the next step of formulating policies. Policies are broad guidelines. Financial policies relate to procurement, administration and distribution of business funds. The next step financial planners have to do is to formulate procedures.

    There is a solution for every problem.

    Second, knowledge without action is useless. Had the pilot not flown higher, knowing about the solution wouldn?t have helped one iota.

    And third, bad things don?t last in the high altitude of high ideals, lofty goals and soaring aspirations. Rat ideas die where eagles soar.

    Evidently a Jerry Seinfeld TV comedy show recently featured a scenario where the valet who parked Jerry?s car had very bad body odor. When Jerry and his friend got into the car, the BO stuck to their clothes and resulted in her boyfriend rejecting her because she smelt bad! When we mix with negative, pessimistic people, their attitudes tend to stick to us like BO and sabotage our success.
