Existence of soulmates?

My breath catches in waves,
my heart hammers in remembrance
of a somehow familiar love,
of an enchanting elusive dance.
The resonating voice,
the curve of your lips,
a smile that strikes a familiar chord
from somewhere in the past.
I know you...
I sense you intangible...
just out of reach...
There's a memory burned into my soul
of a promise we beseeched.
Two luminescent souls,
their essence melded into one...
Arching and swirling
against a midnight sun. Freedom and joy,
ecstasy and love
Twin flames incomplete alone...
Yet... magnificent as one.
I have not forgotten or erased
the eternal promise that we made
to find one another
in this new time and place...
I am searching and seeking,
drawing the memory to my senses
though it is still all unclear...
I sense and feel your presence --
this sense of urgency
that I must hurry... pushes me on
Twin Flame... Twin Soul...
Your memory burns strong...
Help me to find you,
to recognize you when I do.
Let the promises of many lifetimes be realized and true.
Twin flame, find me...
Hold me close to your light...
Let me draw from your strength --
let our memories breathe life...
Come to me, my soul mate,
and let our love be
the covenant of a rainbow,
blazed into eternity.

Devine Compliment...
At this time of increased Cosmic and Solar Radiance, many are finding their way to the Light and Love within their hearts and souls. They are coming "home". It is here that they will find that deep well of Unconditional Love that is called the "Twin Flame".
Many people write and ask me when they will meet their Twin Flame, or whether their Twin Flame is in incarnation. In this channel that was given by Archangel Michael to a private client, he explains that the Twin Flame is an energy that is found primarily within you, and then can be experienced in the outer or manifest world. It is not a person as such, but an energy that can be shared and experienced by two energetically compatible souls.
The channel began with a discussion of the role of soul group bonding and soul family unions, and then moved to the topic of Twin Flames.
"You ask us first about your soul family and your relationship with them. Well, indeed, we can say that the experience of opening the self to the truth that you are "ONE" is indeed a revelation, and that many Lightworkers are experiencing this specific unity and oneness in groups right now. It is one of the joyous rewards of being able to fully access the consciousness of the Higher Self while in human form. For then you understand that the Higher Self or Soul is a conduit for Spirit or the Divine Creative Intelligence, and that indeed it is the same Intelligence or "mind" that inhabits all things.
But, even greater than this, is the true miracle that is slowly emerging in your consciousness as humans. That you can be part of this Oneness, this Divine Mind, and you can be also be Individuals - at the same time. Yes, eventually you will be able to hold these two levels of consciousness together, and so you will be "you" but you will also be the "One", and there will be no conflict between them.. They will exist as a continuum of light and consciousness.
You see, dearest ones, many people imagine that they must move into the consciousness of the One and stay there permanently. Then, they are disappointed when they cannot achieve that or hold that consciousness. But we say, that the purpose is to be able to hold both states of consciousness. There is nothing wrong with your individual consciousness, for this has been the whole purpose of your evolution here on Earth. That the "One", or Spirit consciousness, should be able to hold the "Many" levels of consciousness, or human individual being, and that the "Many" should also be able to hold the "One". In order to do this, both levels of consciousness must function equally as strongly.
You see, in your present spiritual culture, you have become used to holding the individual "ego"or lower being as of little worth, and seeing spirit as all. But, until you can hold both as equally important, you will struggle to truly enter into the experience of the One, for you will not have the power to hold the experience on the material level. It is only when the lower self is strong and empowered and balanced, that the higher self can unite and become one with the lower self. It is, in many ways, the model of the Twin Flame relationship. And, in fact, we can say that until you have achieved the ability to be "one" with yourself, you will never be able to be "one" with another in a Twin Flame relationship.
This is indeed the reason why so many are being drawn into relationships with their soul families, so that they may begin to understand the energy and power that is needed to enter into a Twin Flame relationship in true power and love.
This awareness will indeed become more common as people begin to understand the flow of energies, and eventually, when the Ascension process is fully complete, all humans will have an understanding of this process.

Devine Compliment...
Now, when you speak of this inner Male presence, we would say that he represents the wisdom and guidance of your inner Divine Masculine or Twin Flame energy. This inner relationship is preparing the way for the manifestation of an outer relationship that will be able to carry your Twin Flame energy. The more you interact with the inner male presence, the more you will understand the deep love and support of the Divine Masculine energy, and how it could be expressed within a relationship.
So, we would say, yes this is your Twin Flame, but that does not negate the possibility that your Twin Flame energy may manifest in a physical relationship with a material partner who will carry this energy and express this energy. For, if you truly understand the "lesson" of the "inner merging" with the Divine Mind or Intelligence, then you will understand that this energy can exist within you and can be expressed through the channel of another human being as well.
How is this possible? Well, that person is both a channel for the Divine mind or energy, and an individual, as we mentioned before. So, you can relate to the individual as an individual, but also as a channel for the Divine Mind or Intelligence.
Now, it is not entirely true that there is no gender in the world of Spirit. You see, the basis of all energy flows is Masculine and Feminine, and these are complementary energies. Most of the ancient creation stories, including that of the Ancient Egyptians, tell of a 'Beginning" where the Source energy divided into Masculine and Feminine forms, and then , from that beginning, all other forms emerged and were created. The ancient Egyptian pantheon included Divine Beings, or Gods and Goddesses, who were always partnered - for every male deity there was a female counterpart.
So, within the world of Spirit or energy, there is always a male and a female "charge", or what you might call "electrical" and "magnetic". The masculine is electrical, or active, and the feminine is magnetic or attractive.
Now, these are the energies that are at work in the Twin Flame relationship. The one who carries the Divine Feminine energy will magnetize or attract one who carries the Divine Masculine energy, and they will unite to create the "One" energy of Source.
But, just as we explained earlier in our words about the Union between the Higher Self and the Physical self, both partners must be strong and balanced and powerful within themselves. Each partner must have achieved a personal inner balance of masculine and feminine energy in order to create a strong foundation so that they might also release that into the "One" and allow themselves to become a channel for the single "charge" of the Divine Masculine or Feminine energy within a union that can be both spiritual and physical.
And, in such a Union, there is once again that miraculous paradox - both partners exist as distinct individuals and yet they also exist as "One". They are aware of themselves as individuals, but also aware of themselves as "one" as a "unit" or "dyad" that is a being that is larger and more powerful than they are as individuals.
This "sacred marriage" is, in turn, a reflection of the sacred union of the Divine Masculine and Feminine within Source. One of the purposes of your spiritual evolution and ascension right now is to enable you to enter into such unions that mirror the "Divine Marriage", and yet enable you to remain an individual with your own life and purpose.

Devine Compliment...
So, we hope that you understand, that you are not meant, a this stage, to hold the energy of bliss forever at this stage. It is too high a vibration for you right now. You are gradually learning to "tune in" to that frequency so that you may hold it as one of the many frequencies that you are now capable of holding as a multi-dimensional being. Be patient with yourself, and do not hold any expectations of how much and how far….know that all happens according to Divine Timing and that all is well. You are not "failing" and you have nothing to clear. You are slowly becoming accustomed to another way of being, and it will take your body and energy system a while to truly integrate all this new information and evolve and adapt to a new way of expressing the truth of who you are.
For...while you are indeed individuals, you are also , each and every one of you, expressing the passions and love of the Divine Mind. You are the Divine Mind in action, and as such you can experience the Joy, Creativity and Love of the Divine Mind. Entering into a Sacred Union with a Twin Flame is the most wonderful and joyous way of experiencing this Love and Joy. It is indeed a wonderful gift to all Earth's children at this time!

"If I speak in the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I am only a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal. If I have the gift of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have a faith that can move mountains, but have not love, I am nothing. If I give all I possess to the poor and surrender my body to the flames, but have not love, I gain nothing.
Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.
Love never fails.
And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love."
-- 1 Corinthians 13:1-13
[Love] bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.

I wonder about the pheromones people secrete that stimulates some of the feelings betweem them, that other people do not cause these same effects because pheromones their pheromones are not compatible. Pheromones which linkd with the endocrine system could be the reason many different emotions, feelings of contentment and wholeness are experienced. I believe the endocrine system controls much of the human body through hormones secretions, but maybe not the soul.

Okay … so I will make this my last post in here (thread hog me!)
With a heart overflowing as I have it can be difficult not to want others to share in that also.
I thought I'd end with a beautiful poem I found … it is one that has touched me deeply, as if my own feelings had drifted out of my being and made their way before my eyes.
The following words envelop all that my
is to me, at our Soul level and beyond …
x T
Twin Flame Love
A love like no other
my heart feels the call to you
the memory of separation rises
deeply carved in my heart
for I am you, and you are me
one together throughout all time
The tears of our parting
touch my soul through our lifetimes
as it is upon us once more
seeking the union
The angel wings wrap around me
comforting me, reassuring me
the time for our complete union will soon be
This solace I seek
Wide eyed in innocence and total love
for you are the one
no other can take this place
My heart reaches out to you
deeply longing to heal the separation
to be in total union
yet I know painfully so, I must await divine timing
One day our hearts will be as one
In Union, In all
All that we are will be forever more
~~ Leah Sarah Ince

I definetly believe soulmates are out there, but most of us never find them. We always settle with something less. Unfortunatly.
posted on Feb, 13 2009 @ 03:05 PM
Yes, I do
I met my friend "soulmate" locster through this website. We dont know each other's surnames, hometowns, anything...but yet, he just gets me. I think he is fab.
Soulmates dont need to be sexual. Loctser seems to have an uncanny knowledge of what I am thinking.
I think that the internet rocks. As does locster!

Hey Jess_Undefined … nice name … and such a beautiful picture you take
Awww! After reading your post above, there is something I would like to say to you and that is … NEVER EVER Give Up!
Sometimes the very thing you are searching for has been right in front of you all along … you just may not recognize it yet … but YOU WILL! as it's all about Devine Timing.
As for settling for something less … why would you when you know in your heart of hearts that you deserve so much more. As long as you have the desire and your heart remains open, your life partner will then begin to gravitate towards you and manifest in ways you never dreamed of.
One thing to be conscious of though … once you become aware of who your life partner is you must never try and force the connection between the two of you just because you may be ready for it to happen now … you must allow it to progress naturally so as not to cause more delays in your union.
My own Life Partner journey has shown me exactly this … I've had to be VERY patient waiting for Handsome to catch up to where I am, which hasn't shown the easiest of times, however I have so much Love and Respect for him that I knew it was what I needed to do 'for us'… besides after 30 odd years of searching I think I can wait that little bit longer, don't you?!
I wish you peace and happy discoveries along your continued journey…
Belief Gets Us There!

I agree annefran...
Soulmates do not have to be sexual partners … they are likeminded people that we share a connection with … and most times know us very well without really knowing us, if you know what I mean…
How blessed the both of you are to have found each other … enjoy your time together
And Yeah … the internet Rocks! lol
... it opens up our worlds and most definitely our eyes

That's the problem with you Americans, you need training for everything. Australian managers on the other hand do plenty of sexual harassment without needing any sort of training.
Some people have a great ambition: to build something that will last, at least until they've finished building it.

It showed a series of photos of people from the area of native indians of the region right through to present day residents in modern outfits... it really situated people in history and gave a sense of our own place in it... loved it. There is also a tram restaurant that serves a great breakfast near the town centre. Related Links

It has been my long-standing belief that Revolution #9 was put on The Beatles White Album (properly entitled "The Beatles") as a simple 'filler'. And - only after it came out the way it came out - did John Winston Lennon decide on making it a 'show-case' - or a 'show-piece' - whichever.
As you are most probably aware, the White Album was The Beatles first - as it would be, to everyone's chagrin, their last - try at making a double-album. They may have thought that they had enough material to cover two albums, but when they found that they were lacking by one or two songs, everybody was most happy that they had John. For, he could jot out a song in a breath!
The thing is, he could not know what an impact it would have forever more on the entire Music Industry!
John Winston Lennon - where-ever you are - you are still appreciated highly!

5. The lure of playing a song backwards and seeing what happens.
6. Drugs. Again. -

John cut up a bunch of bits of tapes and put them back together.
anonymous Jul 1st, 2011 7:27am report
Alright, a little bit of insight into this song since there is a lot of confusion.
The song was purposely dubbed by the Beatles, during this time they had been around and started the whole "If we play it backwards, what happens?" theory that literally struck classical rock. This song is a bunch of noises that they collected from popular culture at the time, and wanted to make people uncomfortable. Songs were to be appealing, but also they were supposed to insight some sort of emotion when listened too. Obviously this song makes many people feel uncomfortable because of the rushes and random noises that are being made throughout the entire song.
Also this is before computers, and the dubbed parts where you hear "number 9, number 9, number 9" were put in there to just keep the mentality of the song in place. I can't remember the proper musical term but its sonographical recognition. The music is supposed to be played backwards.
It does not mean the Beatles believed in Satan or stuff like that, because clearly they didn't but the song was insighted and supposed to make people feel strongly about it. -
anonymous Apr 27th, 2011 4:07pm report
Yeah when he says number 9 multiple times if that part is played backwards you here turn me on dead man

Thing song just terrifies me, whether it has a meaning to it or not.
anonymous Feb 22nd, 2011 2:42am report
If you say Number Nine in a recorder, it will sound like "Turn me on dead man". It is just inflections of the voice, and no real subliminal message. Maybe John knew about it.
anonymous Jun 23rd, 2010 6:01am report
Yoko was involved in the Fluxus art movement, which was inspired by John Cage. This is just experimental music... There is/was plenty more like it, during, before and after Revolution #9 was recorded. The idea that it has any meaning played backwards is just the imagination of confused people on drugs. You can read about Indeterminacy, Fluxus, and Musique Concrete if you want more of an explanation about this type of music.

Economic growth best weapon against Eurosceptics -France Finmin
CAMBRIDGE, Massachusetts (Reuters) – French Finance Minister Pierre Moscovici said on Thursday Europe must prioritize growth over deficit-slashing if it wants to weaken the anti-European movement ahead of elections next year.
He said the European Union had already survived an existential crisis that threatened to bring down the common currency, but was now facing another crisis stemming from a lack of economic growth and high unemployment.
Man who claims he was shot by ex-NFL star Hernandez arrested
BOSTON (Reuters) – A man who says he was shot in the face by Aaron Hernandez, an ex-NFL star jailed on separate murder charges, was arrested on Friday for skipping a court appearance last month, the U.S. Marshals Service said.
Alexander Bradley was captured in Hartford, Connecticut, after more than three weeks on the run and was scheduled to appear in Hartford Superior Court Friday afternoon, U.S. Marshals Service Supervisor Andrew Tingley said.
Caesars hopes to hit jackpot with Boston casino bid
BOSTON (Reuters) – Caesars Entertainment Corp's (CZR.O: Quote, Profile, Research, Stock Buzz) proposed casino in Boston would draw elite international gamblers in the same way Las Vegas does, and marks one of the U.S. gaming industry's best cash-making opportunities, CEO Gary Loveman said on Friday.
The company, which is pursuing an aggressive expansion agenda in the United States while wrestling with a mountainous debt burden of over $20 billion, is among a handful of major casino operators vying for licenses in Massachusetts.
Debt-wracked nations could learn from Norway, prime minister says
BOSTON, Sept 25 (Reuters) – Debt-laden European nations, the
United States, and resource-rich developing countries could all
learn from Norway's tight-fisted spending habits and oil wealth
management, the Scandinavian nation's outgoing prime minister
said on Wednesday.
Jens Stoltenberg said Norway had become one of the
wealthiest countries in the world mainly by refusing to spend
its huge state oil revenues, instead placing them in a sovereign
wealth fund and using only the annual returns.
Japan's 'Abenomics' may pave way for investment, Mitsubishi says
BOSTON (Reuters) – Mitsubishi Corp (8058.T: Quote, Profile, Research, Stock Buzz) Chairman Yorihiko Kojima said on Wednesday that Japan's economic reform agenda could, if successful, pave the way for the company's expansion in the country's energy sector.
A sweeping economic policy overhaul by Prime Minister Shinzo Abe aimed at pulling the world's third largest economy out of a 15-year deflationary period – a policy dubbed "Abenomics" – has succeeded in building market optimism, he said.
Exotic language stalls U.S. trial of Guinea Bissau's ex-navy chief
NEW YORK (Reuters) – The United States is struggling to prosecute one of the prized catches in its global war on drugs, Guinea Bissau's former navy chief Jose Americo Bubo Na Tchuto, because lawyers cannot find enough translators who speak his native Kriol.
Na Tchuto was arrested in a sting off the West African coast in April in the Drug Enforcement Administration's most high-profile capture of a suspected drugs kingpin in Africa. He was flown to New York where he has been in jail awaiting trial.

BOSTON (Reuters) – A man who says he was shot in the face by ex-NFL star Aaron Hernandez is being sought by Connecticut police after he skipped a court appearance related to a double-homicide probe in Massachusetts targeting Hernandez.
Hartford Superior Court Judge Joan Alexander issued an arrest warrant for Alexander Bradley after he failed to show up for a Tuesday hearing on whether he should be compelled to testify as an "interstate witness," a court clerk confirmed on Wednesday.
Former NFL star Hernandez pleads not guilty to murder
FALL RIVER, Massachusetts (Reuters) – Ex-National Football League player Aaron Hernandez pleaded not guilty on Friday to murder in connection with the June killing of semi-pro football player Odin Lloyd, and his lawyer said that not "one shred" of damning evidence had yet been presented.
Hernandez, 23, appeared at his arraignment in Superior Court in Fall River, Massachusetts, wearing a dark suit jacket and white collared shirt, said "not guilty" as the charges of first-degree murder and five firearms violations were read aloud.
More U.S. patients feared at risk of rare brain disease
BOSTON (Reuters) – Connecticut said on Friday that two patients who recently underwent surgery at a VA Hospital may have been exposed to a rare brain disease, adding to 13 people already reported at risk in Massachusetts and New Hampshire.
The potential for exposure is believed to be the result of doctors using the same surgical instruments on several different patients. Those instruments were initially used on a New Hampshire patient, who has since died. That patient is now believed to have had a sporadic form of Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease, a condition similar to "mad cow" disease but not linked to beef consumption.

MTV News sat back down with Nate Bihldorff, writer for Nintendo of America's Treehouse localization team, to talk about some of the more off-beat inclusions in Intelligent Systems' latest, Super Paper Mario, which he cowrote with Erik Peterson. The game not only breaks down the barrier between the second and third dimensions (that's kind of its whole shtick, really) but it playfully breaks down the fourth wall as well, self-referentially addressing its own video game-iness with in-jokes about games and game culture (see above).
One joke that didn't come across so well was the DS Lite-shaped oven which appeared to promise DS connectivity. Bihldorff was contrite: "We were actually bummed out when we saw that reaction online ... We should have rewritten that line." With lines like "The mustard of your doom!" under his belt, we imagine there's plenty of redeeming lines in Super Paper Mario to make up for it.

Otter D ruffles Cards feathers
Published 10:21am Wednesday, February 20, 2013The No. 1 ranked (3A) Fergus Falls girls basketball team met and conquered another big challenge, playing at No. 7 ranked (2A) Staples in a game of teams both with over 20 wins on the season, and came out with a 52-44 victory.
Just like their big challenge 10 days ago playing No. 9 ranked (3A) Thief River Falls away from home, the Otter defense again came through and controlled the game. That was a tall order against a high flying Staples offense that drives and kicks for a lot of three point shots and averages scores in the 60's. But at one point in the second half, with Staples trailing by 10 points, the Otter match-up zone defense made them take exactly a minute before they could get any shot off; then the next possession Staples took nearly a minute and a half to get a shot off.
Some may wonder why the Otters only scored 52 points, but it largely was because Staples took so much time off the clock when they had the ball just to get any kind of shot. In fact, the Otter offense was quite productive in that they shot 43 percent from the floor, while holding Staples to only 27 percent shooting, which effectively was the story of the game. Staples' offense is built around shooting a lot of three pointers and they shot 22 of them in this game, but only made seven. They shot 25 two-pointers and only made six. If you do the math, and math is Otter coach Strand's teaching area, you know that's a result of just plain really good defense.
For the Otters, it was two much Hanna Swenson and Anna Monke inside for Staples to handle. Swenson had another big double-double for the Otters, pouring in 19 points and taking down 10 rebounds. Monke added 10 points and five boards, but also had four steals inside and blocked a couple of shots.
On the outside, Brianna Rasmusson and Bailey Strand took turns scoring for the Otters, as Rasmusson had nine in the first half and Strand 10 in the second half. Rasmusson finished with a rare double-double of 13 points and 10 assists, as she continued to pad her career assist record with several nice passes inside to Swenson and Monke and a couple of back door passes to Strand.
Staples had two players in double figures with Jasmine McGillivray dropping in 13 and Kaitlin Spar hitting for 10 points.
Another controlling factor was the Otters out-rebounding Staples 31 to 18, giving up only 5 offensive rebounds on the night.
It was a tough defensive back and forth game in the first half with both teams having the lead at various times. Staples pulled ahead 18-17 at the 4:20 mark, then Monke put the Otters back ahead, but Staples came right back for a 20-19 lead with 1:20 to go. Rasmusson then got the big momentum shot for the Otters, hitting a three point shot with six seconds left in the half to put the Otters in the locker room with a 22-20 lead.
Two minutes into the second half it was a 1-point game, but then the Otters went on a six point run that gave them a lead they never relinquished. At the 8:18 mark in the second half Fergus Falls had a nine-point lead and that was when the Otter defense made Staples take over two minutes of time just to get a couple of shots off. Free throws by Swenson, Strand and Rasmusson in the last couple of minutes sealed the game for the Otters, and they walked off with their 24th straight win on their season.
"Hanna Swenson had a great game for us, getting some nice passes from teammates that she finished well under the basket," commented Otter coach Strand. "Kathryn Sawtell, who didn't score, had just a great defensive game, bringing energy all over the floor and taking away the perimeter three-pointer from Staples. In a low scoring game we had 19 assisted baskets which is indicative of an offense moving the ball well and finding the right person at the right time. Finally, we had great fan support there and the team could hear them cheering them on, which helped us get a big win against a quality opponent that is favored to win their section."
The Otters won the JV game also, playing arguably their best half of basketball this year in scoring 40 points in the first half, in just a 14 minute half. They went on to win 59-50. The Otters handled the Staples press very well, with big first half scoring on the inside as Brooklyn Seland scored 12 points and Ashley Reinertson eight. But the overall game belonged to Amber Boese who had a double-double of 14 points and 12 rebounds to lead the Otters in both those categories.
Staples did salvage the ninth grade game, using a constant full court press to stop the Otters 51-35. Katelyn Strand led the Otters with 10 points and Hallie Bach dropped in eight.
The Otter girls will be back in action Thursday as they head out on the road to take on Central Lakes Conference foe Brainerd Warriors in 7:30 p.m.
FERGUS FALLS (52) – H. Swenson 19, B. Rasmusson 13, B. Strand 10, A. Monke 10.
STAPLES (44) – J. McGillivray 13, K. Spar 10, J. Beachy 9, M. Wing 7, K. Nyhus 3, K. Pearson 2.

Stephanie Miller | January 24, 2011 | Comments
As your organization moves toward a CRM-driven approach, utilize the value of your e-mail marketing talent and data to get you started.
The fruits of our e-mail marketing - and the team that manages the program - are great assets of a marketing department trying to move toward integrated marketing. Unfortunately, they are often underappreciated.
Think about it. The talents, experience, customer insights, and knowledge of the database structure - all required to do effective e-mail marketing - make the e-mail marketing director a hero in the marketing department. Revenue is high, costs are low, and decisions are data-driven. The e-mail program is also a great testing ground - we can quickly learn about the efficacy of offers and preferences and use that insight to improve other digital and offline campaigns.
Yet, the commoditization of e-mail makes it hard for the e-mail director (or their service provider) to play a key role in the marketing department. Every e-mail marketing director worth her salt is constantly running new kinds of trending reports and doing analysis in order to gain a seat at the table and add more value. Typically, everyone always agrees that doing more strategic and targeted e-mail and social marketing would be better for subscribers and improve results. But when the numbers are down or when the workload gets heavy (and frankly, when are we not under such pressures?), the requests fly in to "just send another e-mail broadcast message - today, please!"
E-mail vendors recognize this quandary as much as the e-mail marketing mavens inside marketing departments. They encourage the use of advanced technology and offer fancy new services around social marketing in attempts to gain a stronger footprint. Some help the beleaguered e-mail marketing director with data analysis and streamlined process support in order to improve efficiency and run more tests to prove the value of a more customized approach.
This is why you see many e-mail service providers talking about "marketing automation" and why all the marketing automation vendors provide e-mail marketing services. The marketplace need is moving toward integrated marketing in a big way.
I'm encouraged to see that most marketers do not resist the revolution, but in fact embrace it. They demand that vendors step up and provide tools and services that help manage and analyze data in meaningful ways. Gathering data, or running reports on data, is not the same as insight. So both vendors and marketers need to improve their skills at honing into the key business drivers that reside in digital marketing results data.
The e-mail marketing director is in a good place for seizing the opportunity. That is why e-mail is often used as a starting point for drawing (perhaps dragging?) a marketing organization into an eCRM approach. An eCRM approach means the organization systematically and repeatedly uses customer data to improve customer relationships, drive conversations, and guide customers through the life stages. Notice that I didn't say "drive" the customer through life stages. The era of marketing campaign driving behavior is over. Today, the customer is in control, and the data across channels is used to guide customers from one choice to another. Way back when, it was David Packard who said that marketing is too important to be left to the marketing department. Today, that same sentiment means that marketing organizations must partner with employees from every department - including the C-suite - as well as customers themselves, to create opportunities for engagement.
As your organization moves toward a CRM-driven approach, utilize the value of your e-mail marketing talent and data to get you started. E-mail is not just a high ROI channel, it's one of the strongest digital channels for collecting and utilizing customer data.
How are you and your team embracing the need for a data-driven marketing approach? Please tell us in the comments below.

Carnival Victory Cruise Review by OceanosII: Great Value, but beware...

Compare Prices on Carnival Victory Southern Caribbean Cruises
Great Value, but beware...
I'm going to get right to the point, rather than go on about destinations, embankment, cabins, entertainment, etc. There is much written about this, and most of it is standard for the line and industry.
Pros: Carnival gets a bad rap for being a budget cruise line, but their service, food, and accommodations are fantastic for the price. While they might not match the premium cruise lines, they are far above Norwegian (at least in these areas).
Cons: Be careful, and don't expect Carnival to have your back. Their shops are usually more expensive than stateside, their booze will be cheaper at port, and their art auctions (Park West Gallery) have been caught selling frauds (especially Peter Max). Even worse, their shopping seminars are meant to completely deceive you, including crippling investment. I met a guy that put his savings into tanzanite gems at $200 a carat, even though you can buy them at Macy's for $100.
It's unfortunate that Carnival makes money off More
deceiving people, but if you keep that in mind, you'll have a great time for the money. Less

Worst hands out of Brandon Pettigrew, Kellen Davis, or Jermichael Finley?
Worst hands out of Brandon Pettigrew, Kellen Davis, or Jermichael Finley?
Sponsored Links |
I know it was raining last night, but man that was a pitiful performance by Davis
Texans Time is here!
It's gotta be Kellen Davis. 5 drops on 26 targets...and even that seems low to me.
I think all Bears, Lions, and Packers fans hate their TE. Pettigrew is such a tease. Looks great 1 game and then has butter on his hands for the next 2 games.
This is actually hilarious.
God I hate Kellen Davis

Kellen Davis should not be on an NFL roster.

This is what happens when you don't give the ball to the best player on your team.
Pettigrew is automatic for at least 2 drops a game.
Save our season?
Jermichael Finley has awful hands, but I guess he's still better than Kellen Davis
Pettigrew and Finley can be solid TEs at times.
Kellen Davis just all around sucks.
I find it funny that Kyle Rudolph is probably the best TE in the North now
Don't really see how that's funny? I guess being good is funny.
Anyway, I voted Pettigrew; he drops at the worst times. Our first game he dropped one in the end-zone; easy catch. Last game he dropped one that would of been a first down on a drive where a Lions score would of gave a lot of boost. Ya Davis is terrible, but from what I've seen I picked Pettigrew.
Pettigrew is a weird *** case. Guy will drop a pass wide open, then come back and make an insane grab with like 2-3 guys around him.
Don't know if he's the worst of the 3. But he's definitely pretty close to the top. Still think his hands are better than what he gets credit for, and I do think he only has 4 official drops this year (though those stats are misleading).

The Mothman Prophecies is a 2002 psychological thriller film directed by Mark Pellington, based on the 1975 book of the same name by parapsychologist and Fortean author John Keel. The screenplay was written by Richard Hatem. The film stars Richard Gere as John Klein, a reporter who researches the legend of the Mothman.
The film claims to be based on actual events that occurred between November 1966 and December 1967 in Point Pleasant, West Virginia. Critical reviews were mixed, but the film was a modest financial success.
Newspaper columnist John Klein (Gere) and his wife Mary (Messing) are involved in a vehicular accident. Mary, the driver of the vehicle, swerves the automobile in order to avoid hitting something in the road. A brain scan shows evidence of a brain tumor and she subsequently dies. Later, John discovers an assortment of mysterious drawings which she created before her death, depicting a strange black winged creature she saw on the night of the accident.
Two years later, while driving to Richmond, Virginia, Klein gets lost and inexplicably finds himself far away in the small town of Point Pleasant, West Virginia. Klein's car breaks down, as he makes his way to a nearby house on foot to contact help. The owner of the house, Gordon Smallwood (Patton), reacts violently to Klein's appearance and holds him at gun point. Local police officer Connie Mills (Linney) defuses the situation while Smallwood explains that this is the third night in a row that Klein has knocked on his door asking to use a phone, much to the confusion of Klein. Klein ends up staying at a local motel and tries to figure out how he ended up lost from his original destination.
Officer Mills mentions to Klein that many strange things have been occurring in the past few weeks within Point Pleasant. While conversing with Smallwood one day, it is revealed to Klein that he had heard voices from his sink telling him that in Denver, 99 will die. Scared that Smallwood has the same ailment that contributed to his wife's death, Klein takes him to a doctor to get checked out. Smallwood is found to have a migraine, but no serious medical condition. While discussing the day's events at a local diner, Klein notices that the news is showing a story on an airplane crash in Denver that killed all 99 passengers aboard. The next night, Smallwood frantically explains that he had met the voices in his head. The being is named Indrid Cold.
Later that night, Smallwood calls Klein and says that he is standing with Indrid Cold. While Klein keeps Cold on the line, Officer Mills goes out to check on Smallwood. Cold answers Klein's questions, convincing him that he is a supernatural being. This episode starts a string of supernatural calls to Klein's motel room. One of these phone calls tells Klein that there will be a great tragedy on the Ohio River. Later, Klein receives a call from Smallwood and rushes to check on him. He finds Smallwood dead from exposure to the elements.
The entity described as the Mothman becomes a personal obsession for Klein. He meets an expert on the subject, Alexander Leek (Bates), who explains the nature of the supernatural being and details his own experience with it. As Klein reaches the bridge into town, there is traffic congestion originating from a malfunctioning traffic light. As Klein walks onto the bridge to investigate further, the bolts and supports of the bridge begin to strain at the weight. The bridge starts to come apart, making Klein realize that the tragedy that was prophesised to him was in fact the bridge. As the bridge collapses, Officer Mills's car falls into the water below. Klein jumps in after her and pulls her from the river and up to safety. As the two sit on the back of an ambulance, they see that they have just survived the collapse of the Silver Bridge. The epilogue displays a series of graphics stating that the cause of the bridge collapse was never fully determined. It also states that although the Mothman has been sighted in other parts of the world, it was never seen again in Point Pleasant.
Aside from a few opening scenes filmed in Washington, D.C., most of motion picture was filmed in the areas of Pittsburgh and Kittanning in Pennsylvania. The scenes of Gere sitting on a park bench are on the University of Pittsburgh campus. Road montages were filmed on Pennsylvania Route 28, and the Chicago scenes are completely shot in downtown Pittsburgh's Mellon Square and Trinity Churchyard environs as well as the entrance to the Duquesne Club. The "Chemical Plant" featured in the movie is actually a power station owned by Reliant Energy in Elrama, Pennsylvania. The Avalon Motor Inn is in Eighty Four, PA, south of Pittsburgh. Point Pleasant scenes were shot in Kittanning, Pennsylvania. The collapse of the Silver Bridge was actually filmed at the Kittanning Citizens Bridge in downtown Kittanning. Scenes shot at Gordon Smallwood's house were filmed in Washington County on Pennsylvania Route 917. Pittsburgh's Allegheny County Airport serves as backdrop for the airfield scenes. Despite this relocation, several police officers from Point Pleasant appeared as extras.[2] In reality, 46 people died in the collapse of the Silver Bridge, not 36 as depicted in the film. The motion picture's claim at the end credits of the collapse of the Silver Bridge never being explained is false; the incident was found to be caused by the failure of an eye-bar in a suspension chain in 1971, well before the publication of the book on which the film is based, let alone the film.[3][4]
The film's musical score was composed by the creative lab tomandandy. On January 22, 2002. Lakeshore Records released a 2-disc, edition of the soundtrack.[5]

Noted critic Roger Ebert of the Chicago Sun-Times gave it two stars out of four, calling it "unfocused" and "meandering," but praised the direction by Mark Pellington "whose command of camera, pacing and the overall effect is so good, it deserves a better screenplay."[13]
The Mothman Prophecies opened at the U.S. box office on January 25, 2002, earning $11,208,851 in its first weekend failing to enter the top five grossing films.[14] It eventually went on to yield an estimated $35,746,370 in the U.S., and $19,411,169 in foreign markets for a worldwide total of $55,157,539.[1]

Holiday greetings season is behind us. Many of you probably still remember the times when our mailboxes (I mean the real, metal or wooden ones) used to be filled in with postcards. In my opinion, no eCard can match a good old fashioned postcard. It's just that good old piece of paper and handwriting that adds a special human touch that no electronic mail can have.
So, thanks to Gordeee, impressive but mysterious artist, we can now show you some really really cool postcards. His current theme is Paris :). Some of the graphical elements he used are Grunge Floral Shapes Photoshop Brushes (free download after joining GBG)
These are really beautiful! Great work Gordeee and thank you for sharing it with us!
And now, since we're talking about cards, I just couldn't help mentioning one New Year postcard (old fashioned one) we got from my cousin Davor Vrankic and his wife Silva (yes it's similar to my name but it's not the same :)). This one was drawn by Davor himself! (find out more about Davor Vrankic who is a great painter – artist ->) … also, I already wrote about him and his success in the world of art here ->)
So, here's the unique Holiday postcard from my cousin:
I bet you like it! He's good isn't he :)
I just can't think of a better way to show a sign of appreciation other than do something with your own hands. I know, Davor is a real talent, but that is not the point here. The point is to take some time and dedicate it to someone by creating something with your own hands. That is the point.
Thank you Gordee and thank you Davor for your great works!
Just before the end of the year I dispatched the last 2008 Green Bulb Gang eZine.
It was a compilation I called:
The best of free Green Bulb Gang downloads (Photoshop brushes); 2008.
It contained a link to one Green Bulb Gang web page that contained a number of links for best free Green Bulb Gang free Photoshop brushes of 2008.
These were only available to Green Bulb Gang members.
But, then on it turned out that the web page with download links did not work when accessed with Safari browser from Mac platform. I've got no clue why. I am so sorry guys!
I already sent emails with workaround instructions to all of you who reported that. (The workaround was: Firefox.)
I would test it before dispatching but I could not because I still did not save enough to get that Mac.
So, if you want to help me out AND get yourself a Collection of 800+ Photoshop brushes with Commercial license included (and we all know WHAT THAT MEANS :) ), please feel free to visit the 800+ Photoshop brushes MEGA pack page -> and check it out for yourself! (These are not free, but they're worth every cent AND they come with a lifetime 1/2 price warranty!)
If you are interested in the link to 2008 Best of Free Photoshop brushes Compilation page – it is not just for Green Bulb Gang members but also for all MEGA Package owners (although most of them are GBG members anyway :))

Hi Silvia, My name is Victoria and I am an old friend of Silva.

THANK YOU, Victoria -

K.G. I don't really know of any, but you just gave me an idea. In one of my future posts I will publish a tutorial and a postcard template.
Thanks Silvia!
Those are beautiful. Where do folks get their postcards printed online?
I would love to try to create some of my own to send to friends on occassion. Do you have any online printing resources that would print custom designed postcards?Thanks again for sharing!
Those are lovely postcards. I still enjoy getting and sending postcards. I'm a member of postcrossing. For every postcard I send I get one in return.

FRANKFURT, Germany — Widespread concern about the outlook for the U.S. economy pushed the euro to a new record and the yen to 12-year highs against the U.S. dollar Thursday, while gold and oil prices also surged.
The euro pushed to an all-time high of $1.5625 in European trading, beating a day-old record of $1.5559 _ before declining to $1.5574 in afternoon trading following a report that showed U.S. retail sales fell in February. That was still above the $1.5526 it bought in New York Wednesday.
The dollar dropped below 100 Japanese yen for the first time since November 1995. It traded as low as 99.75 yen before recovering some ground to 100.57 yen, compared with Wednesday's level of 102.04 yen.
Japanese leaders quickly cautioned against instability in currency markets, but made no mention of any intervention to stem the dollar's slide.
The yen's strength is bad news for Japan's economy, which has been showing signs of weakening, because it makes exporters' products more expensive abroad and erodes the value of their overseas earnings.
"Exports will suffer, and that's not good for Japan's economic growth," said Yasuo Yamamoto, senior economist at Mizuho Research Institute in Tokyo.
The British pound rose to $2.0305 compared to $2.0243 on Wednesday night.
Analysts said the dollar may remain weak amid continued financial market jitters.
The likely liquidation of Carlyle Capital Corp.'s remaining assets sent the fund's shares plummeting more than 90 percent Thursday and rattled stock markets around the globe. It was also a high-profile setback for private equity fund Carlyle Group.
Carlyle Capital said late Wednesday that it expected creditors to seize all of the fund's remaining assets _ investment-grade mortgage-backed securities _ after unsuccessful negotiations to prevent its liquidation.
"The latest blow to the dollar and world bourses intensified in early European trade when Carlyle Capital Corp. said ... it expected creditors to seize all of the fund's remaining assets after unsuccessful negotiations to prevent its liquidation," said Ashraf Laidi, chief foreign exchange strategist for CMC Markets in New York.
"The continued damage in the mortgage-backed securities market dealt a blow to Carlyle's collateral, all of which was AAA rated."
That caused a wide sell-off on markets from Tokyo to London and prompted currency traders to sell their dollars.
The euro's rush also pushed oil higher, with prices rising to new trading highs above $110 a barrel on Thursday. The commodity is priced in dollars.
Meanwhile, April gold futures touched $1,000 an ounce in trading.
The dark economic outlook has raised expectations that the U.S. Federal Reserve will continue to cut interest rates _ even as the European Central Bank sticks to a tough anti-inflation stance and signals that no rate cuts are on the way for the 15-nation euro zone from its current 4 percent level.
Lower interest rates can jump-start a nation's economy, but can also weigh on its currency as traders transfer funds to countries where they can earn higher returns.
ECB president Jean-Claude Trichet reiterated his concern about roiled foreign exchange markets, telling the French newspaper Le Point that "especially with the dollar, I reaffirm that the disorderly movements of exchange rates are undesirable from the point of view of economic growth."
