Well, is it really that expensive?
A top GMAT tutor can provide you will the knowledge and skills to attain a top score on the GMAT and they can help you to do it in far, far less time that it would take to do on your own. These tutors have learned the GMAT themselves, earned very high scores, and then further mastered the GMAT through teaching and designing thousands of practice questions. They know exactly what you need and can bring you to mastery in a minimal amount of time
For example if you are a beginning student, despite your study you may have a hard time answering the following question:
What is the lowest number that can be multiplied by 36288 to make it a perfect square?
You may know completely well what a perfect square is but be at a total loss on this question and this is frustrating. You could spend days on MBA and GMAT forums trying to find the answer or at least the process, to never find the right answer. (Remember, the average GMAT score is about at 530, so most people out there do not know any more than you know.)
We could frame this into a GMAT question:
What was the approximate percent change in GMAT registration from 2007 to 2008?
Well, percent change can be easily determined with the following formula (and one you would be well-advised to learn before the exam):
((Final Value - Initial value) / Initial Value)) X 100%
This continues to mean that the competition is stronger, the scores are higher, and schools can afford to be more selective with the applicants that they select. Remember, at the end of the day, Universities are also businesses that need to pay bills and to market themselves. It should come as no surprise that top business schools have one big thing in common - high GMAT scores.
In short, a top GMAT tutor will maximize your chances of earning the highest GMAT score possible, lower your stress, lower your workload, and shorten the number of hours that you need to spend studying.
How To Study For The Gmat
Winning Tips To Beat the Gmat
Less than 50 people each year can get a 800 Gmat score. Most of us would be happy with a 700+ score as this is usually a ticket to go to a top university. There are two routes to making it there: a test prep company or self study.
Choosing the best test prep company
Each year millions of test takers spend a fortune on test prep companies to prepare for the Gmat. These structured courses guide students through their study time. You see the Gmat is not a test that tests how smart you are. It is a test that tests how well prepared you are. To do well, you have to learn things the Gmat way. I came to the conclusion that the best courses were from Manhattan Gmat and Veritas.
I have been through all the Gmat books and resources and good write a whole book to review them all. Suffice to say, the only books you actually need are the Official Guide Books. There are a handful of other resources such as Manhattan Gmat's Sentence Correction Guide, the Critical Reasoning Bible, and Rapid Reading that are helpful as well.
Whichever route you decide on, the key to mastering the Gmat is practice, practice, practice. And then more practice.

Tomato Growers Seeing Red
While throwing a few rotten tomatoes at U.S. regulators might help ease growers' pain, those involved in the latest salmonella epidemic would prefer cash for their trouble.
After weeks of implicating domestic tomatoes in an outbreak of Salmonella saintpaul, federal food-safety sleuths shifted the spotlight to jalapeño and serrano peppers grown in Mexico.
But before the U.S. Food and Drug Administration lifted the tomato advisory July 17, U.S. tomato growers were left holding the shopping bag.
Growers said they lost $100 million in sales during the investigation, which they charge was conducted poorly and without enough consultation with them.
The growers knew the agency hadn't gotten to the source of the problem after the FDA told people to stop eating tomatoes and the illnesses increased, said Robert Guenther, senior vice president for public policy for United Fresh Produce Association, an industry group in Washington.
Things got even more problematic for investigators when tests didn't turn up a single domestic tomato with the bacteria.
The late reprieve for the industry shows how difficult it is to conduct international investigations of food-borne illnesses with limited resources and imperfect ways to trace a product back to its source.
At the same time, pressure has intensified to solve cases quickly and to pay for "mistakes" made.
Holding a tomato in one hand and a jalapeño in the other, Rep. Bart Stupak (D-Mich.), chairman of the Energy and Commerce Committee's oversight and investigations subcommittee, pressed the FDA on whether the tomato was still a "vegetable of interest" or had been cleared.
David W.K. Acheson, the FDA's associate commissioner for food, responded at a July 31 hearing that no mistakes had been made and that tomatoes on the market were safe to eat.
The FDA said it followed the leads provided by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. It found in early interviews with sick people that, overwhelmingly, they had eaten raw tomatoes in salsa or Mexican-style restaurant food.
The Salmonella saintpaul case began in May when federal and state investigators identified cases of the infection, which can cause serious illness and death, in New Mexico and Texas.

Memento mori is a Latin phrase that can be roughly translated as, "remember your mortality." It is a universal concept that exists in many ancient faiths and philosophies, a perspective that our time in this life is limited, so we must remember to make the most of the fleeting moments we have. When we consider how our time is not guaranteed, even the smallest and most mundane moments with family and friends can be transformed into the most precious and beautiful blessings. For this reason, the essence of memento mori is its counterpart memento vivere, "remember to live."
A healthy and balanced attitude towards life comes not just with treasuring blessings, but also with making peace with its inevitabilities. When there is death, there is life. When there is pain, there is healing. When there is sorrow, there is joy, and there are a full range of states in between and beyond. Sometimes loss hits closer to home than we expect. Sometimes change occurs, which can be scary. How do we cope when times get tough? How do we make sense of the pain we experience in life, and how do we bring joy back into our lives and the lives of others? How do we remember to keep our lives in perspective so we can live it fully with balance?
Win it all
Having a safe space for personal expression is a critical objective of MIST. Every individual has a unique voice. Through our competitions, we strive to validate and motivate our participants to be successful, compassionate human beings. With over two dozen competitions, participate in your favorites and take home the gold medals!
Increase your knowledge
One of our objectives is to provide a platform to help our participants develop confidence and professionalism by practicing presentation, public speaking, and problem solving skills. Competitors present their projects in front of a panel of judges and an audience of other MIST participants. All participants have the opportunity to explore and discover unknown talents and hidden potential!
Connect with others
MIST provides participants with the opportunity to meet and network with diverse peers who share the same (or different!) talents and interests, as well as build relationships that can last a lifetime. We welcome everyone of any religion or no religion. Our topics and workshops are geared towards developing critical thinking skills while promoting a greater understanding of Islam and Muslims.

Surfing trip to Mimizan followed by a cultural trip to Barcelona
Mimizan Travel Blog› entry 1 of 2 › view all entries
On the 8th of august me and two of my best friends set out for two weeks of sun, sea fun and culture in Mimizan and Barcelona. We drove to Mimizan by car and stayed at the campsite municipal du lac. It's not the most luxurious campsite in the world, but it does the trick if you enjoy the outdoors and don't need a lot of luxury (we did have electricity though :)). it's a real cheap campsite. For 11 days we payed around 70 euro's per person. The only thing that bothered us was the fact that we had to drive to mimizan-plage every night when we wanted to go clubbing.
We stopped two times on our way and arrived at our destination within 10 hours!! :D needless to say we did not follow all of the traffic rules. Our place was pretty big and we set up our three tents. Because the weather was great and we had done all of our work it was time for the shorts and time to catch some waves :D :D!!
All week the weather was fantastic except for two days with waves up to five meters (double/ triple overhead). We're not pro's so we had to sit those out. The other days were perfect for surfing, as were the girls on the beach :D :D. For surfers it's a bit crowded in the summer time, but truth be told there are enough waves for everyone!!
As for the nightlife... You can get cocktails and off course a nice beer or giraffe (2,5 liters of beer) at bars like Pili Pili, the Surf bar and afterwards go dancing at Pura vida and the American Bar. Pura vida is a fantastic bar (certainly for the dutch people)!!
After ten days we said goodbye to mimizan with pain in our hearts. So off to Barcelona after those fantatsic days..

The 66th Annual Golden Globe Awards (2009 TV Special)
Don Cheadle: The Coen brothers, who incidentally have never hired me... Never put me in a movie, even movies that - I would have crushed Fargo! I would have crushed it. Macy was fine, but I would have... I would have crushed it.
Ricky Gervais: [referring to Kate Winslet's win for her part in 'The Reader'] Well done, Winslet. I told you, do a Holocaust movie and the awards come, didn't I?
Ricky Gervais: The trouble is with Holocaust films, there's never any gag reel on the DVDs.
Ricky Gervais: I can't believe I'm not nominated. I met the Hollywood Foreign Press, they're all over me, "Oh, we love Ghost Town." Not enough, obviously. Brilliant. What a waste of a campaign! That is the last time I have sex with two hundred middle-aged journalists. It was horrible. A lot of them didn't speak English. Europeans with wispy beards. The men were worse.
Seth Rogen: It is a true honor to finally be presenting here at the Golden Globes, although honestly I wish I got to do this a long time ago in a different era in Hollywood, perhaps. Maybe like the 80s, you know, that way instead of being drunk with Mickey Rourke tonight I'd be doing cocaine with Mickey Rourke tonight.
Elizabeth Banks: You did do cocaine with Mickey Rourke tonight.
Seth Rogen: I know I did, a lot of it, but it's just not the same, I'll be honest with you.
Sacha Baron Cohen: It is said in times of economic hardship that people flock to the cinemas to watch mindless, purile, escapist nonsense. Which is great news, because I've got a movie coming out.
Tina Fey: I want to say thank you to the Hollywood Foreign Press. I've always loved the Hollywood Foreign Press. As a kid I had all the Hollywood Foreign Press action figures.
Tina Fey: If you ever start to feel too good about yourself, they have this thing called the Internet. You can find a lot of people there who don't like you. I'd like to address some of them now. "BabsonLacrosse", you can suck it. "DianeFan", you can suck it. "Cougarletter", you can really suck it, 'cause all year, you've been after me all year.
Tracy Morgan: Thank you. Tina Fey and I had an agreement that if Barack Obama won I would speak for the show from now on. Welcome to postracial America! I am the face of postracial America! Deal with it, Cate Blanchett!
Mickey Rourke: I'd like to thank all my dogs. The ones that are here and the ones that aren't here anymore, because sometimes when a man's alone that's all you got is your dog, and they've meant the world to me.

how long did it last? did you try and recreate it to make it last more? or just content with what took place then and there :)
sort by best latest
This question implies that we are either ecstaticly happy or down in the dumps. This interpretation also infers a certain bi-polar interpretation of happiness: either we're experiencing it or, if not, things are not as they should be. This is just my opinion, of course, and you might not agree.
Personally I believe I'm a fairly happy person. My younger son, who happens to be a forty-five year old single dad, remarked only recently to tell me that "Dad, do you know that you go around humming most of the time." He is, of course, right. I also sing to myself on occassion.
So is this happiness? Maybe. One thing most of us do comprehend is that happiness is not generally something we 'know' we are experiencing. That usually comes upon reflection after the event. And the moment we start remembering that happy moment in time has already passed.
We are happy when we are fully engrossed in doing something or experiencing something we enjoy and a certain feeling of joy comes up automatically. We are then 'in the moment' and it is a pleasant moment. We can, of course, 'be in the moment' in a state of abject fear.
Moments of true, really top-rate happiness, those times we can look back on can usually be remembered as a few minutes or hours in a particular day. For the rest of the time we reside somewhere between contentment and discontentment as we go on seeking that elusive something which can never be found, but can only arise from within.

Cable theft in Stokesley
9:10am 7th August 2012
Stokesley police are appealing for information following a second theft of cable on the A172.
Thieves stole 800m of BT cable on Friday 27 July 2012, from the road, heading from the Treebridge roundabout towards Nunthorpe. The second theft, of around 1100m of cable, took place on Wednesday 1 August 2012, on the stretch of the A172 from the Treebridge roundabout to the junction with the RSPCA centre.
As well as stealing the cable, the offenders also caused significant amount of damage to cereal crops in the fields they entered to steal the cable.
PC Wayne Whitfield, of Stokesley Safer Neighbourhood Team, said:
"The investigations have shown that whoever stole the cable will have used specialised cutting equipment to remove it.
"If you can identify the people responsible for this theft I urge you to contact the police or Crimestoppers straight away.
"I would also like to hear from you if you may have seen any suspicious activity in the area or vehicles parked in unusual locations.
"I am particularly keen to speak to any scrap metal dealers who may have been offered the cable. Working with these dealers is a key way to reducing the theft of cable."
Anyone who can help with this enquiry is asked to contact Stokesley police on 101, press option 2 and ask for Wayne Whitfield. Alternatively information can be emailed to firstname.lastname@example.com.
Or call Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111 quoting reference number 12120125599.

Bloomberg Says Aurora Shooting Justifies Gun Control
I'm sure none of us are surprised that New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg has jumped all over the Aurora shooting to call for stricter gun control.
After all, Bloomberg continues to believe he has a right to control what you eat/drink, so why wouldn't he think the government should take away your 2nd Amendment rights as well.
Following the tragic theater shooting, Dictator-wanna-be Bloomberg has called out President Obama and Mitt Romney, asking what they intend to do about it as President, stating that "this is obviously a problem across the country."
Bloomberg: Increased Gun Control:
"Lone Gunman" Story in the Aurora Shooting Doesn't Make Sense
James Holmes, the alleged shooter, is a 24-year old unemployed medical student. Witnesses state that the gunman was wearing ballistic gear and threw tear gas into the theater before he opened fire.
According to CBS, police claim that Holmes used at least 3 weapons in the slaying – an assault rifle, a shotgun and a Glock handgun – and that they found a second handgun in his vehicle.
But that's not all. Police also told CBS that they found "one rifle, two handguns, a knife, a bullet proof vest, a ballistic helmet, a gas device, a gas mask, military SWAT clothing and unidentified explosives were also found in Holmes' car."
Where would an unemployed college student get the exorbitant amount of money he would need to purchase all these things? Not to mention, how would he get a hold of them? Military gear isn't exactly readily available for purchase at your local Walmart.
In addition, not only did Holmes not resist arrest, he TOLD police that there were 'possible explosives' in his apartment!
If someone is hell-bent on murdering people, do you really think they would calmly surrender and warn the police that their apartment was booby-trapped?
These are just a few of the things that don't add up at all.
The logical explanation is that this was a staged attack by our government.
It's no coincidence that this tragedy occurred exactly one week prior to the day that the government is expected to authorize the UN Small Arms Treaty. It sets the stage for them to strip you of your 2nd Amendment rights and go on a gun grab.
Do not be deceived by what the media is feeding you. This was planned, and their agenda is gun control, which history has proven is disastrous.
Our deepest sympathies go out to the families of the shooting victims. You are in our thoughts and prayers.

I awake to an empty bed and the smell of frying bacon. I roll over to find my phone on the bedside table, then glance at the time. Not yet six.
I groan and fall back among the pillows, but I don't really want to go back to sleep. What I want is Damien.
I slide out of bed, then grab the tank top and yoga pants I'd left draped across a nearby armchair. I head barefoot out of the bedroom and move the short distance down the hall to the third-floor kitchen.
We're standing in Damien's Malibu house, and the wall of windows that faces the ocean is wide open, the glass panels having been thrust aside to let in the breeze. The smell of the ocean mingles with the scent of breakfast and I breathe deep, realizing that I am content. Whatever demons had poked at me during the night, Damien effectively banished them.
I glance toward the windows and out at the darkened Pacific. Waves glow white in the fading moonlight as they break upon the shore. There is beauty there, and part of me wants to walk to the balcony and stare out at the roiling, frothing water. But the siren call of the ocean is nothing compared to my desire to see Damien, and so I turn away from the windows and head straight to the kitchen. It is larger than the one in the condo I used to share with my best friend, Jamie, and it is not even the primary kitchen for this house. That is on the first floor, and could easily service a one-hundred-table restaurant. But this - the "small" kitchen - was installed as an adjunct to the open area that serves as a venue for entertaining, and since it is just down the hall from our bedroom, Damien and I have gotten into the habit of cooking our meals and eating in this cozier, more informal area. Usually we're joined by Lady Meow-Meow, the fluffy white cat I took custody over when Jamie moved out. I know Lady M misses Jamie, but she's also enjoying having the run of this huge house, and Gregory - the valet, butler, and all around house-running guy - spoils her rotten.
Now I lean against the half wall that marks the break from hallway to kitchen. Damien is standing at the stove cooking an omelette as if he were nothing more than an ordinary guy. Except there is nothing ordinary about Damien Stark. He is grace and power, beauty and heat. He is exceptional, and he has captured me completely.
At the moment, he is shirtless, and I cannot help the way my breath stutters as my eyes skim over the defined muscles of his back and his taut, strong arms. Damien's first fortune came not form business, but from his original career as a champion tennis player. Even now, years later, he has both the look and the power of an elite athlete.
I let my gaze drift down appreciatively. He is wearing simple gray sweatpants that sit low on his narrow hips and cling to the curves of his perfectly toned ass. Like me, he is barefoot. He looks young and sexy and completely delicious. Yet despite his casual appearance, I can still see the executive. The powerful businessman who harnessed the world, who shifted it to his own liking and made a fortune in the process. He is strength and control. And I am humbled by the knowledge that I am what he values most of all, and that I will spend the rest of my life at his side.
"You're staring," he says, his eyes still on the stove.
I grin happily, like a child. "I enjoy looking at pretty things."
He turns now, and his eyes rake over me, starting at my toes. "So do I," he says when his gaze reaches my face, and there is so much heat in his voice that my legs go weak and my body quivers with want. His mouth curves into a slow, sexy smile, and I am absolutely certain in that moment that I am going to melt. "You spoiled my surprise," he says, then nods toward the breakfast table where a tray sits with a glass bud vase displaying a single, red rose. "Breakfast in bed."
Charlotte Crosby has been one of the UK's best-loved TV stars since she burst onto the celeb scene in 2011 with Geordie Shore. Laugh-out-loud hilarious, genuine, and a proper Geordie, Charlotte's popularity has even seen her crowned winner of 2013's Celebrity Big Brother. With her trademark humour and warmth, in ME ME ME Charlotte takes us on a very unique journey through her eventful teenage years (where literally nothing is off limits!), her attempts at holding down jobs (and booze), the life-changing experience of Geordie Shore, the truth about Gaz and his parsnip, and her inspiring weight-loss triumph. Full of drawings, doodles, and Charlotte's personal photos, this will be unlike any other celebrity autobiography on the market. Extremely personal, insanely honest and pant-wettingly funny.
In January 2012, one of EastEnders' longest-serving and best-loved characters breathed her last when Pat Butcher succumbed to cancer. Her departure from the show gave actress Pam St Clement time to reflect, not only on almost 26 years playing a role that she loved, but also on her whole life.Pam's mother died when she was a baby, leaving her with a father whose life didn't really have space for a child. What followed was an itinerant childhood, with various stepmothers and foster families, before an advertisement in The Lady took 11-year-old Pamela to the farm in Devon that was to become her true home, with the 'aunts' who became her surrogate parents. Time on the farm at Dartmoor, where she discovered her love of animals, alternated with life at The Warren boarding school in West Sussex, where she discovered her passion for acting.On leaving school, Pam was unsure of what direction to take but gradually realised that acting was what she wanted to do with her life. So, in 1966, Pam took up a place at drama school. Pam settled in London and worked on stage and television throughout the sixties and seventies, before her first appearance on EastEnders in 1986 and the offer of a permanent role a few months later.This memoir is far more than simply an actor's tale. Quite apart from her fascinating and unique childhood, Pam also recalls her involvement in the women's movement of the 1970s, her lifelong love of animals and the worries about her weight that have dogged her since her teenage years. It is also a tribute to Pat Butcher, for whom Pam retains a huge affection.This incredibly warm memoir reveals the woman behind the popular EastEnders' character, a woman who, apart perhaps from her earrings, couldn't be more different from Pat.
Carol Vorderman is everywoman: a single working mother, a businesswoman and a devoted daughter. And now, for the first time, she has decided to tell it like it is.Since 1982, Carol was much loved as co-presenter of Countdown with Richard Whiteley. Joining the show at the age of twenty-one after her mother secretly posted off an application, she became the first woman to appear on Channel Four. Vorderman and Whiteley went on to form one of the most endearing partnerships in British TV history. His death in 2005 devastated Carol but she continued to present Countdown until July 2008, when, after twenty-six unbroken years with the show, it was announced that she was stepping down.Carol's life has been a rollercoaster. The youngest of three children, she was just three weeks old when her parents separated. Her father refused to acknowledge Carol, leaving her mother to hold down multiple jobs as the family's only provider. There was a stint in the circus; there have been two marriages; she has juggled a career with two children, whom she adores; she is a detox advocate and has hosted more shows than any other female presenter, including Tomorrow's World, Better Homes, Pride of Britain and, of course, Countdown.In IT ALL COUNTS, Carol tells the engrossing story of her life from an early age through to today - the personal struggles, the good times, the sad times, and lifts the lid on what really goes on behind the scenes in a TV studio and the full story behind her shocking Countdown departure.
Born in 1960, Carol grew up in North Wales with her sister, brother and her beloved mum, Jean. She went to the University of Cambridge at just seventeen. Since childhood, Carol has had a passion for everything mathematical and her skill with numbers secured her a role on Countdown in 1982, the show that cemented her position as one of the most successful and popular female presenters in British TV history. Awarded an MBE in 2000, she has now turned her attention to maths education. Carol lives in Bristol with her children.

Feisty Green Polka has been nominated for its first award! The Liebster Award is an online recognition given to new bloggers by fellow bloggers. The award is designed to provide encouragement among the blogging community to help bloggers grow and to highlight new and upcoming blogs within the blogging community.
Feisty Green Polka Dot was nominated by Jen at Jennadesigns. Jen is a mom, wife, and writer. Her blog is full of great posts on art and crafts, photography, family, and much more. I suggest you go and check it out.
The rules are as follows:
- Thank the blog that nominated you and link back to them.
- Answer 11 questions from the blogger that nominated you.
- Tell readers 11 random facts about yourself.
- Nominate up to 11 bloggers to receive the award next.
- Give your new nominees questions to answer about themselves when they post their nomination.
Here are my questions from Jen at Jennadesigns:Where did you grow up?
When I was younger, we moved around a bit. I was born in Illinois, lived in Connecticut for 7 years, and then moved to Tennessee. So I guess I grew up the most in Tennessee, but I don't consider myself Southern.
Where do you live now and why did you choose it?
I currently live in a suburb outside Portland, Oregon. I came to Oregon because I wanted to see it. Honestly, I'm wanting to live a bit closer to my family now that I have children.
What motivated you to start blogging?
I can't put my finger on exactly why I started blogging. I think it was a combination of things. I needed an outlet to express myself since I had moved far away from my friends and family. I also wanted to serve as a resource for people. I love sharing information that might be helpful to someone. I also love to talk, while not the same, blogging allows me to share my opinions.
What is the most challenging thing you face as a blogger?
I think it is easy to get discouraged, especially when you don't have a ton of followers.
How would you spend one hour of free time – no responsibilities?
I'd sleep. I have a very active toddler that keeps me very busy and I'm pregnant, so I am never well rested.
What's your favorite form of social media? Why?
I really love visual social media, like Instagram. I love to see great pictures, they can be so inspiring. I just started a new account and I am trying to learn from the best. It really takes a lot more time and planning than I thought.
When you're not blogging, what are you up to?
I am always needing more time in the day. My hands are kept very full by my little boy. He has more energy than any other person I know. I spend most of my time with him or cleaning up his messes. When I do steal away time for myself, I usually nap.
If you could choose one person to happen across your blog, who would it be?
I'm really in love with The Everygirl. If one of the founders read my blog I would be both ecstatic and embarrassed.
Describe your family.
I am married to a man that might as well be my polar opposite. He is very relaxed and go with the flow. It is a great counter to my personality. My oldest child, has a very big personality. He is so full of life. He brings such joy when he is around. He is also a handful. I am learning how to be a better person everyday by having him in my life. I am currently pregnant so I am waiting to see what kind of person he will be. I know he doesn't kick as much so maybe he will be a bit more relaxed. We shall see.
What is one item you cannot live without?
I'm pretty sure I could live without anything I own. I have been trying to be more in the moment and less tied to things. If I had to pick though, it would be my iPhone. It has pictures of friends and family on it. I love looking back at pictures of my little boy or of me and my husband when we were dating.
Where do you see yourself in 5 years?
Before I had children, I could have given an answer to this question. I have always been very driven and planned on having a very successful career. Now I can't imagine anything but being with my boys. I don't want to be a stay at home mom forever because it isn't financially feasible, but I don't know what returning to work would look like at this point.
Here are 11 random facts about me:
- I am nomadic at heart. I've moved a lot in my life and I don't like being in any one place too long.
- Some people think I'm an introvert, but I'm not.
- I have dropped my keys down an elevator shaft on accident. They managed to fall through that little gap. Don't worry, I got them back.
- I thought I would never get married or have children. Both are the best things I have ever done.
- I have no desire to return to Tennessee. Ever.
- I am too afraid to do DIY projects. I'm just not very handy.
- I am very competitive and hate losing.
- I love to read, but haven't had time to read a book since my child was born.
- I would lose my head if it wasn't attached.
- I prefer dogs, but I have two cats.
- I hate wearing shoes.
And here are my nominees! I'm excited to learn more about you!

PO Box 911239
St. George, UT 84791
Home » Certification Programs » NSP Academy
In 1988, while working for Nature's Sunshine Products (NSP) as their Sales Training Manager, Steven created a program called Distributor School, a one day class designed to help Distributors learn the basics of natural health. He built in a system of tracking to compare the performance of people who attended the school with the average new distributor for NSP and was able to document that those attending the training had much better results than the average Distributor.
Having been an NSP distributor himself, Steven understands how intimidating the NSP product line can be to a new member or distributor. He also understands that for most people, it's difficult to recommend products to help others if you lack confidence in what you know. So, education is critical to the success of people who are new to NSP. That's why he's creating this training program to help.
Steven's Distributor School will teach people the essential products and health knowledge needed to successfully recommend a core set of valuable and unique NSP products. It will also teach people the basic business and marketing skills needed to start sharing this information with others.This is not a "rah-rah" high pressure approach to selling, but rather a low key, educational approach to making people aware of the benefits of the products and building credibility with others.

The Missed Tata Revolution
In French daily Le Monde, Julien Bouissou discusses the automotive revolution that never was, namely the missed revolution intended by Tata Motors in India.
The writer and his team purchased a mojito green Tata Nano, with A/C and a complete audio system. The car arrived a short two days later wrapped in a red ribbon, as if it was intended to be put underneath the Christmas tree.
First, you are required to break a coco nut, a symbol of higher spirituality and good fortune. Then you have to cut the red ribbon between two metallic posts. Two or three employees suddenly appear in front of you, armed with pastries. They clap their hands in front of you and take pictures of the ceremony.
Customer service is mostly done at home, which is something that pleases the consumers who can thereby avoid India's massive traffic jams. Two months after the initial delivery, two mechanics arrived on a motorcycle with a new dashboard wrapped in a plastic bag. Within a couple of minutes, they had replaced the previous, faulty dashboard.
There is little doubt that the Nano is the ideal car for New Delhi. The car is small yet at the same time spacious, fits through every nook and cranny and can be parked pretty much anywhere. But driving it in town can present multiple dangers.
For one, elephants circulate through the streets at night quite often, of course without headlights. Red lights stop working all the time, and the right away is hardly respected in town.
The biggest and most unpredictable danger is the bribe. If you get stopped for a traffic violation, you have to "negotiate" the amount of your fine with the police. In that case, the type of car you are driving carries a crucial importance. And the driver of a Nano, assumed to be poor, typically pays a lesser fine.
Yet despite all of these compelling features, Indians have shied away from the Tata Nano. Four years after launch, the car is a commercial flop. By March 1 2013, the cumulative 227,000 cars sold are four times lower than the manufacturer's objectives.
Back in December 2012, a few days before retiring, the former Tata Motors president somewhat conceded defeat. "We weren't ready to market the Nano as we should have."
Everything started in early 2000 when Ratan Tata started dreaming of a car for those who can only afford to ride a motorcycle. In answer to a question from a journalist at the 2003 Geneva Car Show, Mr. Ratan unveils the car's price 100,000 rupees (a little over $2000 at the time). In other words, the cheapest car on the planet.
On the day of January 10 2008, the legend reaches its peak. Over 1000 journalists from all over the world are taking the New Delhi Auto Show by storm to get a glimpse of the vehicle. During the same decade, India witnesses an average annual growth rate of 9%. Analysts predict an explosion of the middle class, and that the Nano will be its symbol.
But the Nano myth quickly fades in contrast to the harsh realities of another India, that of farmers who refuse to turn over their land for the benefit of industrialization. Day and night, one can hear the chants "Nano, no ! No !" along the Nano manufacturing plant. As a result, Nano Motors has no choice but to find another location… on the other side of the country. The first models are sold almost a full year late. And the worries don't stop there: a few short days after their delivery, some cars catch fire.
But this hardly deters Tata Motors executives. The order flow is so massive that they need to devise a lottery system in order to figure out who will be the lucky few new Tata Nano owners.
Loyal to its cost reduction policy, Tata Motors neglects marketing costs. Before its launch even, the Nano was the most well known car on earth thanks to an unprecedented media blitz. But according to Gautam Sen, editor in chief of the magazine Auto India, "Tata Motors was incapable of capitalizing on this media notoriety." Because in India, more so than in any other country on earth, the car represents a symbol of social success. And "because of almost zero advertising, the cheapest car in the world became the car for poor people."
Maybe the full story of the cheapest car in the world has not been fully written yet. Other, similar cars like the Mini, also witnessed harsh times initially before becoming mainstream success stories. This year, Tata plans to launch a new and improved Nano model powered by compressed natural gas.

In volunteering with Safeworld*, the volunteer agrees to abide by this code in whole.
Safeworld* is committed to conducting its transactions and activity in a socially responsible manner. Safeworld* expects the same of its volunteers.
Safeworld* has created this Code of Conduct as a means of enforcing its commitment to deal only with volunteers who share its commitment to ethical practices.
In addition to the Code of Conduct, volunteers are also required to adhere to the *Safeworld Ethos and support the *Safeworld Mission and Objectives.
The provisions of this code constitute minimum and not maximum standards, and this code should not be used to prevent volunteers from exceeding these standards. Volunteers applying this code are expected to comply with national and other applicable law and, where the provisions of law and this Base Code address the same subject, to apply that provision which affords the greater protection.
Safeworld* recognises that its volunteers might be based in cultures with different norms and values. Safeworld* expects its volunteers to have a natural respect for ethical standards in the context of their own particular culture.
The relationships with volunteers are based on the principle of fair and honest dealings at all times and in all ways. Safeworld* specifically insists that its volunteers extend the same principle of fair and honest dealings to all others with whom they do business.
These terms are not subject to negotiation.
Safeworld* will not be bound by any handwritten or typed changes to this Agreement not specifically approved by Safeworld* in writing.
- Safeworld* insists its volunteers treat everyone fairly and should not treat any person less favourably because of their race, colour, religion, sexuality, age, gender, nationality or disability*.
- There is no discrimination based on race, caste, national origin, religion, age, disability, gender, marital status, sexual orientation, union membership or political affiliation*.
* Except where Safeworld* has objectives which are legitimately served and advanced through positive discrimination towards socially or economically disadvantaged women.
- In working towards equality of opportunity, Safeworld* wishes to establish a culture that enables volunteers to successfully balance work requirements with domestic and personal responsibilities.
In external communications with third parties, partners etc, volunteers shall not represent Safeworld unless expressly requested by a member of the Safeworld* management team.
Except where expressly representing Safeworld*, with permission of the management team, volunteers shall make it clear, on all social media accounts, blogs, external communications etc, that they are NOT representing Safeworld* in the respective communication.
Safeworld* insists that its volunteers:
- Are committed to continual improvement in environmental performance and waste reduction.
- Adhere to all environmental legislation, regulations and all local laws to facilitate the protection of the environment.
Volunteers shall treat others with dignity and respect. Physical abuse or discipline, corporal punishment, the threat of physical abuse, sexual or other harassment and verbal abuse or other forms of intimidation shall be prohibited.
In addition, in order to prevent sexual exploitation and abuse, the following core principles are incorporated into our code of conduct:
- Sexual exploitation and abuse by volunteers constitute acts of gross misconduct and are, therefore, grounds for immediate dismissal;
- Sexual activity with children (persons under the age of 18) is prohibited regardless of the age of majority or age of consent locally. Mistaken belief in the age of a child is not a defence;
- Exchange of money, employment, goods, or services for sex, including sexual favours or other forms of humiliating, degrading or exploitative behaviour is prohibited. This includes exchange of assistance that is due to beneficiaries.
- Sexual relationships between volunteers and beneficiaries are strongly discouraged since they are based on inherently unequal power dynamics. Such relationships undermine the credibility and integrity of humanitarian aid work.
- Where a volunteer develops concerns or suspicions regarding sexual abuse or exploitation by a fellow volunteer, whether in the same agency or not, s/he must report such concerns to a member of the SAFEWORD management team.
- Volunteers are obliged to create and maintain an environment which prevents sexual exploitation and abuse and promotes the implementation of this code of conduct. Managers at all levels have particular responsibilities to support and develop systems which maintain this environment.
Safeworld* monitors the day to day management process to ensure compliance with this Code of Conduct.
Safeworld* will review this Code of Conduct on a regular basis and will introduce revisions where necessary.
Volunteers will be presented with, and will need to agree to, any future revisions of this Code of Conduct as a condition of continuing as volunteers.
This Code of Conduct shall apply to all volunteers.
Throughout this Code, use of the term volunteers signifies the party agreeing to this Code of Conduct.
If the managment is concerned that a volunteer is not abiding by the Volunteers Code of Conduct, in most circumstances the volunteer will be informed and given an opportunity to explain the alleged misconduct.
However, the Trustees reserve the right to immediately dismiss a volunteer if it is deemed that the volunteer is bringing significant disrepute to the organisation and/or substantially inhibiting the achievement of the Safeworld* objectives.
While we recognise that volunteers are in no way contractually bound to *Safeworld, we do respectfully request that, should a volunteer need to leave for any reason, every reasonable effort is made to give as much notice as possible and to ensure the management is up-to-date with records, contacts, communications, etc.
*Safeworld likes to acknowledge the dedication of long-standing volunteers. The management is very happy to consider providing references for volunteers who have demonstrated consistent commitment, responsibility and passion, over a substantial length of time. Please ask!
*The Safeworld International Foundation (Safe World for Women)

Other Activities: whale-watching, beach-combing, sea glass
We loved our stay at Bello Horizonte this past December. Aleida is a marvelous and attentive host. She shopped ahead for us, so that we arrived with basic provisions, and she met us the morning after our late-night arrival, to ensure that we had all we needed. The house is exactly as pictured. The rooms are spacious and updated. The bathrooms are modern and very clean, with beautiful tile work. The kitchen is very well equipped. The grounds are lovely, and we enjoyed fresh-squeezed grapefruit juice each morning (which we squeezed with the help of the electric juicer provided!). The pool was refreshing and picturesque! If you're thinking "but I want to stay on the beach".....no you don't. The beaches are so varied, that you will love the freedom of staying at Bello Horizonte and driving to your beach of choice each day. I walked to the Domes and Spanish Wall beaches from BH several mornings, watched the surfers and collected buckets-full of seashells and bleached sea urchins. We spent most afternoons first at the Steps beach, snorkeling and sunning, then "in town" at the swimming beach, for more relaxed, calm swimming and beautiful sunsets. I've rented several houses through homeaway, and Bello Horizonte is one of the best ever! Aleida, please feel free to use me as a contactable reference! Linda
Espectacular best place I have stay in Rincón. We will stay again next time.
Rincon is a beautiful area. This was my first time in Puerto Rico and I absolutely loved it. The views from the house are amazing (just like the photos). Catch a nice sunset while soaking in the pool - breathtaking. Owners are very nice and always checked on us to make sure we are well taken care of. The grounds are beautiful with lots of tropical plants and trees (huge mango tree as you drive up, coconut trees, banana trees). House is completely private and in a safe area. Lots of great restaurants within 5-10 min drive - Lazy Parrot / Francisco, Beach House, Tamboo, Sushi Pool Bar, Calypso Cafe, and much more. Supermarkets (Econo), local market shops, gas stations, beaches all 5-10 min drive. Drive from San Juan is an easy 2.5 hrs drive (half highway, half local streets). Lots of outdoor things to do all 15min to 1.5 hrs away. People are nice and friendly in the area. Thank you for a beautiful vacation. Will always remember and if my travels bring me back I will stay again at the Bello Horizonte.
We had a great time! The house was clean and everything was in great shape. Great view and the grounds were well taken care of. The outdoor shower was plus. The outdoor seating area with table and hammock was nice way to stay out of the sun and still enjoy the outdoors. The location was perfect as well. There was great food all along the 413. There is a very good restaurant and bakery right across the street and a few doors up. The house is up on a hill so it is away from the road and the only neighbor that is close is the church next door. We only heard the church Sunday morning around 10am. The owner responded very quickly to any questions and even worked out an extended stay since there was no one checking in after us (we paid a half day rate and stayed until 10pm). We will hopefully be back soon.
Bello Horizonte is true to its name. We enjoyed our stay at Bello more than words can describe. It didn't feel like you were a tourist, it felt like you were home, but in an exciting and adventurous way. The house is very clean, warm and welcoming. You wake to roosters crowing from the surrounding neighborhood and you know immediately you are back in the Caribbean. The view from yard is spectacular and the trade winds are ever present. You can sit outside at night and listen to the waves crashing in the distance.
Our group consisted of three couples in our 50's and 60's and we all loved this place. Plenty of bedroom and loafing space with a nice pool overlooking the sea. All I can say is "We will be back!"
Thanks Aleida & Jack. You were great hosts.
Hasta You Later!
This house is amazing! It had everything we needed, all we had to do was bring our clothes. While not directly on the beach, the view of the ocean from the yard/pool deck was fantastic. You could walk to a couple of beaches nearby, or a short drive (minutes) to several others. The pool was clean and the perfect temperature, my son was in that pool every morning and every evening. The house was clean and perfect. The terrace area, where we spent most of our time while at the home, is clean and the perfect temperature with the gentle island breezes sweeping across each day. I was amazed that there were NO bugs the entire time we stayed here in March. I didn't see a single mosquito, fly, or anything else. The hammock on the terrace was a favorite spot for both of my sons to relax. Aleida called us the day after we arrived to make sure we had everything we needed and to offer help in any way while navigating around the island for things to do. Even before our arrival, Aleida assisted me with the booking and made sure to communicate with me prior to our arrival to ensure she answered any questions we may have had. The property the house is on is beautiful and you can tell that Aleida and Jack really take pride in this place and want to make sure their guests feel comfortable. I would recommend this place to anyone, and Rincon itself was the perfect place to call home base during our stay. I would also highly recommend Puntas bakery, which is walking distance from the house, and make the short drive to Villa Cofresi and have lunch on the beach. The chicken burrito there is the best you'll ever have. For activities in Rincon, Flying Fish Parasail was an absolute blast and is located just a few minutes away from the house. Pinto's R Us horse riding on the beach was amazing too. Make the 1+ hour drive to Rio Camuy and tour the cave, well worth it. For souvenirs, go to Pepon Souvenirs in Rincon, best selection, prices, and staff was very helpful. We were on the go the first 5 days of the trip to explore other parts of the island and do activities, but the last two days of our stay we decided to just hang out at the house and relax because it was so nice there. The kids are already asking when we can go back to Bello Horizonte.

Detroit Pistons vs. Los Angeles Lakers - 12/6/15 NBA Pick, Odds, and Prediction
Los Angeles Lakers (3-15) at Detroit Pistons (11-9)
NBA Basketball: Sunday, December 6, 2015 at 6:00 pm (The Palace of Auburn Hills)
The Line: Detroit Pistons -9 -- Over/Under: 197 See the Latest Odds
The Los Angeles Lakers invade The Palace tonight to battle the Detroit Pistons.
The Kobe Bryant farewell tour continues as the Lakers head into this game fresh off a 100-87 loss to the Hawks. Louis Williams led the team with 18 points, D'Angelo Russell added 16 points while Kobe Bryant struggled for the first half before finishing with a few late baskets to finish with 14 points on four of 19 shooting as the Lakers rallied from a 19-point deficit but fell painfully short in the end. The Lakers have now lost seven of their last eight to fall to 3-16 on the season and 2-10 on the road.
USA TODAY Sports
Meanwhile, the Pistons will be looking to extend their winning streak to four games after beating the Bucks by 102-95 on Friday. Reggie Jackson and Marcus Morris led the team with 23 points each while Andre Drummond dominated the paint with 17 points and 23 boards as the Pistons shut down the Bucks with defense, holding them to 20 percent shooting in the second half and 41.5 percent for the game. With the win, Detroit improves to 11-9 on the season and 7-2 at home.
In ATS trends, the Lakers are 8-20 ATS in their last 28 games overall and 1-6 ATS in their last seven road games, while the Pistons are 22-8 ATS in their last 30 home games and 5-1 ATS in their last six home games against a team below .400.
Head to head, the Lakers are 13-3 ATS in the last 16 meetings overall and 6-2 ATS in the last eight meetings in Detroit.
The Lakers actually played quite well to come back against the Hawks in their last outing before coming up short, but the Pistons have been playing pretty good basketball lately and I think they will pull away late to win by double digits.
