The Hoyt Family in the Stranger is based on a true story of a couple being murdered at a cabin. They should have had a home security system installed in their cabin. Nowadays a security system almost seems like a necessity and I am thinking of getting one. There are a lot of different kinds and things to consider when gettin

I never heard of a kiffiyeh until this whole Dunkin Donuts Rachel Ray ad thing came up. What is a kiffiyeh anyway? Michele Malkin thinks Rachel Ray wore a kiffiyeh on the Dunkin Donuts ad so they pulled the ad. Are conservative commentators getting too much power?

Are we going into another McCarthy era, only this time wit

The new Scott McClellan book that just came out is telling how George Bush's White House sold us a bunch of propaganda to convince us to go to war in Iraq. This is so sad, since so many of our young people have died in the war.

It is amazing how I keep finding parallels to Feng Shui wherever I go.

A few weeks ago, my boyfriend and I went to hear a talk by Philip Chard about being healed by nature. The theme of the talk was that, today, people are alienated from nature. Some people hardly ever get to spend any time in nature.

A couple of days ago, I posted that I had started using gmail.

Unfortunately, I don’t recommend this any more. Or, if you do use it, be sure to back up your archived mail somewhere else as well.

My account at gmail was suddenly suspended. I have no idea why. I had to submit a support ticket to find out why, and to get it reinstated if p

have been doing a case study of improving the earnings of a boring blog that I had neglected for a long time. Here’s an update on my progress.

The reason I would like to put some more effort towards this is that I only have to do it once. Once the numbers get up there, since there’s not much competition, I will not have to do much, and the

The next day, it only got 3 visitors, but imagine my surprise when, the day after th

When you are tempted to abandon your marketing plan too quickly, think of this: 1. The first time a man looks at an ad, he doesn’t see it. 2. The second time, he doesn’t notice it. 3. The third time, he is conscious of its existence. 4. The fourth time, he faintly remembers having seen it. 5. The fifth time,

I have a blog on a boring topic that I am trying to get links to. You can read Part 1 of my link building efforts here. In that article, I discussed how I created an article that would appeal to a lot of blog carnivals, and then submitted it to some carnivals.

The next thing I did, which will be the subject of today’s post, is to submit th

This is a review of Leo Babauta's book, "Zen To Done". Have you been looking for a system that would make you more productive?
