Is Deaf Love True Love? Sunday, October 31, 2010

Have you ever experienced language barrier? If you have ever gone to a different city or state, country or continent you know what I am talking about. Over the years, I have lived in different places. I am from an English speaking country so you can imagine what happened when I visited Montreal Canada. I did not know even a single french word and so I behaved just like a deaf person. I wanted to date a french girl despite the language barrier. I loved her and that is when I started to wonder whether there is deaf love. We read about it in books, and even watch it in movies where two people from different planets meet and fall in love without exchanging even a single word.

I know deaf dating actually exists but what about deaf love that seems to transcend any language? Love is a non-verbal feeling which is shared by two people. True love does not depend on your behavior. If you love people because of what they say to you and how they play with their words, I am afraid you might be a little bit misguided. Love is a strong feeling that conquers all. It does not respect class, ethnic background or even physical features like mountains and distance. No wonder it is not even limited by language barriers and disabilities. Songs have been written and movies acted of people who had no hearing impediment coupling up with a deaf person.

In these gorgeous romantic movies, some guy will go for a holiday in a deserted place with only a planet guide for company. Within no time he falls in love with a beautiful village girl from the nearby village who does not know how the world looks like outside her village. Does deaf love happen like this or does Hollywood lie to me all the time? With the increasing number of inter-tribal relationships, it is evident that deaf love exists. Every second there is a romantic relationship transpiring between people who speak each other's language terribly. Love is a driving force that makes it possible for each lover to learn the others mother tongue with much ease. It creates the right attitude and makes it bearable to learn even the most difficult language with the required patience.

A french guy in love with an English girl will try to polish his English as the girl polishes on her French. That is the power of love and it brings out the beauty of deaf love. The two people result into being bilingual. What is the first gift that the two people will buy for each other on their first date? The will buy their language dictionary and take to the new found deaf love. That is the perfect form of dedication, love and commitment that two people facing a language barrier can give to each other. These people usually enjoy better communication than people who speak the same language. This is because they have made communication their most important business.

The Best Teeth Bleaching Products Friday, October 29, 2010

Getting your teeth whitened can provide you with more confidence in your appearance, which can improve your life in a variety of different ways. Also, it can make you more apt to smile which is a good thing. We should all smile as often as possible. But how do you choose the best teeth bleaching products? They all claim to be the best. If you pay attention to three basic things, you should have no problem picking out an effective teeth whitener.

It may sound simple, but you should definitely look at the reputation of the company that makes the product and the product itself. Can they provide customer testimonials? Have outside media sources done any reports on them or their teeth bleaching product specifically? How much do they have to spend to advertise? Can they rely on word of mouth? What is their warranty policy?

Secondly, look to see what the main active ingredient is. It will be either hydrogen peroxide or carbamide peroxide. A better product will contain carbamide peroxide because it is more effective in cleaning the enamel. This is what makes teeth white. The carbamide peroxide should be about twenty percent of the solution. Any less and it won't be as effective as it could be. Any more and it could cause painful side effects.

Last, any good teeth bleachers will also protect the teeth from future staining. After all, few of us are willing to give up our coffee, wine or cigarettes just for whiter teeth. A good product will protect the enamel with a polish type substance that will not only add shine to the teeth but keep them looking white and bright.

The best teeth bleaching products will also be inexpensive. Several hundred dollars is too much to spend on one.

More Expensive Doe Not Necessarily Mean Better!

Beautiful Toenails - The Secret to Healthy and Strong Nails Monday, October 18, 2010

If you have long desired healthy, strong, and beautiful toenails, then you have come to the right place! Believe it or not, there are some simple and straightforward tips that can help you achieve the beautiful toenails that you have always dreamed of. The first step to beautiful toenails is surveying the nails you already have. Are they discolored or flaky? If so, then you should consider a visit to your local podiatrist, as you could be suffering from an unsightly and unwanted condition such as toenail fungus. Otherwise, if your nails seem healthy, you can feel free to proceed with these simple and practical toenail beauty tips.

1. Keep Your Feet Dry. One of the best secrets to beautiful and healthy toenails is to keep your feet as dry as possible at all times. Wearing clean, dry socks, and changing your socks immediately after working out can achieve this. Excess moisture in your feet can not only encourage unwanted foot problems such as toenail fungus, but can also cause your toenails to become weaker and start to peel. One of the best methods of achieving beautiful toenails is to ensure that they are strong. After that, everything else will fall into place.

2. Polishes and Treatments. There are no proven scientific methods to grow nails rapidly. However, there are some excellent treatments on the market that encourage nail growth; and furthermore, these great products encourage healthy nail growth. Brands like Sally Hansen and OPI offer products that help to speed up the growing process, and also encourage nail strength and reduce chipping and peeling. Layer their products under the colored nail polishes, and you will see healthier nails after a few months of usage.

3. Prevention, Prevention, Prevention. One of the best ways to achieve healthy and beautiful toenails is to prevent problems like toenail fungus or warts from happening. The best way (besides keeping your feet clean and dry) is to wear shower shoes or flip flops when using public facilities such as gym locker rooms or hotel bathrooms. These moist, high traffic facilities can be a great hotbed for viruses such as toenail fungus and the human papilloma virus, HPV, which causes unsightly plantar warts.

As you can see, the secrets to healthy toenails will not require you to invest in hundreds of dollars worth of beauty products! Indeed, the secret lies in these basic, common sense practices.

Dr. Chris Milkie, a Board Certified Wauwatosa Podiatrist, has treated thousands of foot problems since 1991. He is the first, and only, podiatrist in Wisconsin to offer a Laser procedure, which is the newest and most effective treatment for toenail fungus on the market today. Dr. Chris Milkie is the author and can provide additional information about the treatment of many conditions which affect the feet by visiting his website Milwaukee Podiatrist

Advanced Management Skills - The Thorny Issue of Fairness Sunday, October 10, 2010

Fairness is a virtue

We all agree that, as a manager we should:

1. Treat others fairly

2. Be treated fairly

We all agree that it would be wrong to:

1. Accept unfair treatment

2. Treat others unfairly

If theirs is so much agreement over the word FAIRNESS

Then how come the concept causes so many problems and conflicts?

How often do you hear people complaining?

It is not fair!

Fairness is an "often used but ill defined" word.

The concept of fairness falls under the category of words labelled "Often used but ILL defined."

i.e. there are multiple interpretations to the same word.

Consequently you can have the same set of facts presented to three people

- One will claim the story is an example of fairness.

- The second one says the same story is an example of UN-fairness".

- And the third person will be undecided, and say "I can see both sides".

It is important that you completely understand "fairness" so that you can decide what to do in particular circumstances.

Fairness has four major meanings

Let us call them "fairness formulas"

The four formulas share a common root

The common root is

"Fairness is a moral principle intended to guide proper relationships between people. Fairness is based upon...."

Now it gets tricky because there are four continuations of the above statement

Fairness formula 1

"Fairness is a moral principle intended to guide proper relationships between people. Fairness is based upon....

The principle that I SHOULD GET WHATEVER I WANT! And if I do not- IT IS NOT FAIR"

This is called the "baby response" to the fairness question

"I WANT IT. IF I DON'T GET IT, it is not fair".

Would you agree this is a false definition?

Just because you don't have a Porsche does not make life unfair.

Fairness formula 2

"Fairness is a moral principle intended to guide proper relationships between people. Fairness is based upon....

Everyone is treated according to the same laws, policies and procedures

Irrespective of their Colour, race Sexuality gender Religion etc."

Would you agree that this is a correct version of fairness?

That we should not judge people differently because they are of a different

- Sex

- Age

- Colour

- Religion

- Accent

- Disability

Fairness formula 3

"Fairness is a moral principle intended to guide proper relationships between people. Fairness is based upon...."

Ensuring everyone receives everything for which they are entitled BY virtue of their performance and productive effort

That their level of wealth is Dependent on their productive effort

If they have not earned it , it should not be made available

Even if they NEED it."

This is called the "Trader" model of fairness

Should people be given ALL they have earned by their productive thought and action, even if it means they have far more than they need and much more than the others?

Many people believe in it- they think this is common sense.

Many do not- they think it is unfair that some people earn much more than others.

What is your opinion?

Should not some of the excess be shared amongst those in need?

Fairness formula 4

"Fairness is a moral principle intended to guide proper relationships between people. Fairness is based upon...."

Ensuring everyone has access to the sufficient riches to satisfy their need.

Irrespective of their productive effort

If they need it, should be made available from

1. The rest of the team or

2. Society"

This is called the "social model" of fairness

Many people believe in it- they think the wealth should be redistributed from the HAVES to the HAVE NOTS.

Many do not like this- they say "Why should my hard earned riches be shared out and given to those who have not earned it?

What is your opinion?

Should people be given a small degree of your wealth, because they need it?

Don't you have more than you need to survive in comfort?

Should he be given small concessions at the expense of the others, because he needs it?

Why?

You can see that Fairness formula 1 (The principle that I SHOULD GET WHATEVER I WANT! And if I do not- IT IS NOT FAIR) seems to be capable of rejection by everyone?

No problem there.

Formula 2 (Everyone is treated according to the same laws, policies and procedures Irrespective of their Colour, race Sexuality gender Religion etc.) will be rejected by many .

But there are still some people who will treat you harshly because you are

- Foreign to them

- A woman

- Not a woman

- A certain religion

- A certain colour

- A certain minority section of society

Is that fair?

Most would say definitely not.

Some will still say:

"I don't like her because is a Black, / gay, / disabled, / polish, /Muslim /woman"

Fairness formulas 3 and 4 cause many conflict because they are opposite's formulas

Formula 3 says "Give people what they need even if they have not earned it"

BUT 4 says "Don't let people have what they need, UNLESS they have earned it"

Formula 3 says "society is responsible for the individual"

BUT 4 says "The society is NOT responsible for the individual"

Formula 3 says "Proof of Need should be enough to satisfy a claim for concessions"

BUT 4 Says "proof of Need is not enough to satisfy a claim for concessions".

The clash between formulas three and four cause many of the conflicts at work

For example:

Is a Social Need (i.e. child care issues) a legitimate claim for me to come in late and go home early?

- I need to have the afternoon off to go to my Childs school play"

- I have to leave early to go to the dentist"

Is it fair to give such concessions?

This question is similar to many you need to sort out in your own mind.

It is up to you to ponder your policy in relation to the clash between formulas 3 and 4

Here are the steps

- Analyse the two competing versions of fairness (three and four)

- Decide which represents the best version of fairness for your context.

- Apply the version with even handedness, every day, to everyone.

- Remember that whichever policy you choose, you will find half the others have adopted the opposite policy.

So be prepared!

Summary

Fairness is a virtue.

Fairness is an "often used but ill defined" concept.

It is important that you completely understand "fairness" so that you can decide what to do.

Fairness has four major meanings

Review and understand the four fairness formulas- especially formulas three and four.

It is up to you to ponder your policy

Analyse the competing versions of fairness and apply the best version with even handedness.

Remember that half the others have adopted the opposite policies.

Good luck!

Choosing a Nerf Gun Wednesday, October 6, 2010

Many people will want to pick out their Nerf gun based on how cool it looks, which can be hard to do, since their bright paint jobs and new designs make them all look pretty cool. If you're shopping for a child you will probably want to pick one out based on its age range, since some Nerf guns and weapons can be more powerful than others. They can also have more complicated shooting styles or are too heavy for younger Nerf blasters. Another option you will want to consider when choosing your Nerf gun is where it is going to be used. More powerful guns can shoot up to forty feet and probably aren't recommended for indoor use. But there are less powerful guns that can be used for living room or office Nerf battles as well.

Several of the more popular guns include the Nerf Maverick, Nerf Raider, and Nerf Vulcan. They are all very cool-looking guns but each serve different purposes in your Nerf arsenal. The Nerf Maverick is a smaller gun that looks similar to a revolver. When you're ready for battle simply load the 6 foam darts into the round chamber and you can fire them off in a matter of seconds. The Maverick could very easily be an indoor or outdoor gun as it only shoots up to 15 feet.

The Nerf Raider and Nerf Vulcan on the other hand are quite a bit bigger and recommended more for the big kid who loves Nerf. The Raider is Nerf's version of a Tommy-gun. Its claim is the largest capacity Nerf gun ever. It holds 35 darts in its drum magazine and can shoot a single shot or can be set to rapid fire to give you an edge in your next Nerf battle.

Weighing in at 8 pounds, the Nerf Vulcan shoots rapid fire mini darts. With an attached ammo belt and target sites you'll never run out of Nerf ammo and it provides some of the most precise shooting accuracy. Both the Vulcan and the Raider are probably better for outdoor use as they are able to shoot a further distance. Either one would be a fine choice to take into your next Nerf battle.

With all of the choice of Nerf guns out there you will need to do your research to find which one is best suited to your needs and shooting abilities. And with all the safe fun you can have with a Nerf gun, why not add them all to your Nerf Gun arsenal.

GadgetFind.com likes Nerf guns some much it has created its own Nerf secton listing all the greatest Nerf guns, Nerf blasters, and more. Check out the Nerf Vulcan Auto Cannon and Nerf Maverick at GadgetFind.com today. Jeremy Thompson is an editor for Gadget Find.
