Spa Covers Going Green?
Author: Spa Covers
All this talk about going green, a big part of saving the environment is to not create more waste that will just end up clogging our land fills. Follow me on this for a minute... There are 10 million spa owners in the USA, and each one of them uses a typical rigid foam spa cover on their hot tub. For the sake of this demonstration each foam cover is only two inches thick and every spa is eight feet by eight feet. That would mean each spa cover contained about 10.666 cubic feet of foam per spa cover. For the rest of this example we will use 10.5 cubic feet per cover.
If each cover on every spa becomes saturated within two years and needs to be replaced that would mean that we would be adding 52.5 million cubic feet of waste to our landfills in just spa covers every year.
If it takes two and a half covers worth of foam to make up one cubic yard that translates to 4 million cubic yards of waste added to our land fills every two years just in spa covers.
If there are 11 million Cubic yards of stone in the Great Pyramid at Giza, we are adding enough foam to build a duplicate of it to our landfills just from used spa covers every six years conservatively. There are four and a half million cubic yards of concrete in Hoover Dam. We could build a two lane highway of discarded foam filled spa covers from Seattle Washington to Miami Florida every two years.
In case you have not noticed most foam filled spa covers are not two inches thick anymore. If all those old foam covers were four inches thick all these calculations would be double.
But we are just being conservative so we want to stick with two inches thick. If we ripped the covers in half and laid those pieces end to end we could circle the earth at the equator on used spa covers every two years.
Heck with parking lots, in a few years we could pave the entire planet with foam just from saturated foam spa covers from the USA alone.
So what is the solution? Well shop for a better spa cover. There are options available on the internet that your local spa dealer probably does not offer. You do not have to quit using your spa to save us. You just need to get a Spa Cover that does not use foam to insulate. There would be two major advantages to doing so. First the spa cover that did not use rigid foam to insulate would last longer. Since what always fails in the typical spa cover is the foam, either breaking or getting so saturated that you cannot lift it, a spa cover that did not use foam would tend to last longer.
Second, if the new type of spa cover does not use rigid foam it will also be a lot more friendly to the environment when it does come time to discard it. Less trash, less waste, less land fill, not that is what going green is all about.

Natural Skin Care using Evening Primrose Oil
Natural Skin Care using Evening Primrose Oil
Author: Laura Thomas
Most women who have ever suffered from pre-menstrual syndrome (PMS) or PMT as it is often known, is well aware of evening primrose oil and how it can be used to modify their symptoms and many husbands are equally aware of its effects in this respect! However, skin care products are not often associated with this oil yet it is used by many women to keep their skin in good condition. Why is this? The main components of evening primrose oil are gamma-linolenic acid (GLA) and Omega-6 polyunsaturated fatty acids that are used by the body in the regulation of several biochemical and hormonal processes such as regulation of the function of your heart, your mood and also the way that your body uses insulin. However, it is also an anti-inflammatory, and that is probably why it offers such a beneficial effect to your skin. Evening primrose oil can be used to treat eczema and other skin conditions such as acne and psoriasis, both orally and topically. If you use EP capsules to reduce the effects of the menopause, and also suffer from any of these conditions, try opening a capsule and rubbing it on one of the effective areas and then monitor it. You should eventually notice a difference between the treated and untreated areas. It also moisturizes your skin and keeps it soft, even when exposed to the harsh chemicals found in washing up liquids and other cleaning products. Its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties are the classic properties needed of a substance to prevent or moderate the inflammatory of the immune system to triggers such as the damage caused by conditions such as acne, promoted mainly by the bacterial infection of the pores of the skin that have been plugged by excess sebum or skin oil You can rub in evening primrose oil to have the opposite effect and smooth and help clean the pores, and then heal any damage caused by the acne to the skin. In this way scars caused by the pustules can be minimized. When it used on inflammatory skin conditions, it soothes the burning sensation of eczema, and helps to alleviate the redness and itching of that and of acne and psoriasis. The oil has also been found effective in treating various forms of dermatitis, including some severe industrial forms of the condition. It also offers many other benefits to your skin, including rejuvenating old and dry skin, removing small wrinkles around your mouth and eyes, helping to make your skin feel silky and smooth, removing minor blemishes, helping to smooth and cure acne skin and accelerating the rejuvenation of skin affected by psoriasis. Although the raw unadulterated oil is most effective, as is that contained within the evening primrose capsules, skin care products that include evening primrose oil as an ingredient are also useful, the efficacy increasing with increasing content of the oil. The unrefined evening primrose oil is an effective moisturizer that helps your skin to look full and fresh, and an added benefit of it being used on acne and other skin conditions is that it helps to heal wounds Evening primrose oil is an effective skin cleanser and moisturizer that is preferred to any of the proprietary brands that can contain a number of harsh chemicals intended to impart certain properties to the product as opposed to your skin. It is natural skin care at its best.

In the World we live in, with the advantages of the Internet and the whole technology, we have plenty of stomach exercises to learn and look at. This is both good and bad. Good because of the variety of ab exercises we can find, but is bad because it is harder to sort out the effective from the useless ab exercises. In this article we offer you the top ab exercises as suggested by many fitness experts. If you feel overwhelmed by the quantity of stomach exercises out there, this little list of exercises provides the perfect starting point to a tight stomach. Before starting it would be helpful to consult with a professional to avoid injuries.
Crunch less Crunch
The traditional crunches work the rectus abdominus (the center section of our abdominal area) but do nothing for the equally important transverse abdominal muscles. This exercise takes charge of these muscles without neck strain. It involves trying the belly button towards your spine, and while it may sound simple, it is hard because it involves muscles we are not accustomed to work.
1. Lie on your stomach or kneel.
2. Totally relax your body and start pulling your bellybutton towards your spine. Hold.
3. Hold for ten seconds or until you don't feel the muscles, that is the goal here.
4. If you want to increase the difficulty of this abs exercise, hold for more seconds.
5. Let the contraction out.
Hip Lift
1. Lie on your back with your arms at the sides and palms facing the sky.
2. Raise your legs at a 90 degree angle while keeping your knees as straight as possible.
3. Contract your abs muscles and lift your hip off the ground. Hold for 2 seconds.
4. Slowly lower your hips back to the floor.
Long Arm Crunch
1. Lay on you back with your knees bent and your feet flat on the floor.
2. Straighten your arms, as you are reaching something over your head.
3. Contracting your abs, raise your arms, shoulders and head off the floor forming a 30 degree angle. Hold.
4. Slowly bring your body back to the starting position. Repeat for a set.
Other great exercises on the list are the Bicycle maneuver, the vertical leg crunch, twists and Pilates exercises. Most of Pilates exercises if not all of them, work your abdominal area. Whatever you choose start now, because it is a long but rewarding journey.

Cheaper notebooks are perfect for people who know what they are going to do with their notebook and have exact requirements that they can shop for. Several notebooks stand out for their budget price tags and their popularity for being sold.
The Acer Aspire As5536-58831 15.6 inch screen is just under five hundred dollars making it the ideal choice for bargain hunters. It is a good little package that comes with an AMP based processor and all integrated graphics and a decent performance review. The keyboard comes in full size with a numeric section however the track pad is located in an awkward location making it hard to use. The audio is a bit weak for a notebook and there is lots of trial ware, which means many programs need to be purchased to have use of them.
The Compaq Presano CQ60 420U5 15.6 inch screen is a nice notebook for many. It is an updated version of its previous one and gives everyone what they came to expect with the first one only with more features. The only drawbacks for this handy notebooks is that the peripheral connectors rate at a below average and the system does not support the 802.11n wireless internet networking that is needed for wireless internet. There is also lots of trial wear, but it is an affordable notebook that will have many happy customers.
The Dell Inspiron 14-14 inch lap top has a 14 inch screen and a wonderful price tag. This notebook has many features that can be added on however when you begin adding things on the price goes from cheap to expensive. This system comes with an express card slot and a wide range of options as long as you pay for them. This notebook also has limited network assess and just a vista basic OS.
When you purchase a budge notebook you will want to find ones that are popular and sell well. You can find out which ones these are by looking on line and asking a sales person to help you. Flyers and sales also help notebooks to become cheaper for people who cannot spend the money on a fancy one. Often times, budge notebooks are just as effective for the average person as an expensive one. Many people love their notebook and are glad they got one for a cheap price.
Researching into which ones are great is an excellent way to find the notebook of your exact choice and liking. You can find budge notebooks on many online stores and you can even buy one line as well. With all of the choices available it will be easy to pick one and decide on how you will buy one whether it`s online or someone other way.

Internet Network Marketing in the 21st Century
By [http://ezinearticles.com/?expert=Donna_Ferreira]Donna Ferreira
Attraction marketing is the new internet marketing model. Too many MLMers and Network Marketers fail in their businesses because they have only been taught the old model -- the model that existed prior to the information age of the internet.
Twenty or 30 years ago, the model being taught in your MLM was workable. You joined an MLM, you were mentored by your upline, and you made lists of everyone you knew. Then you called, visited, did home presentations, etc. At that time the world for an MLMer was his work environment, his church, the gym and any community groups he might belong to. In other words, you were chasing potential leads.
You don't have to be chained to the old model. The new model is Attraction Marketing -- attracting leads to you. I accidentally ran into this new-to-me concept about a year ago because I joined another network marketing group. Having some second thoughts about the company because of how it was presented to me, I started researching the new company on line.
Up popped an e-book claiming to debunk the old MLM business building model. I purchased it, read it and then downloaded a separate free e-book by the same author. Here was data that made sense AND which was already tried and proven by the author. I now had hope for ANY network marketing business that I joined.
Eventually that author (and successful network marketer) teamed up with another successful network marketer to develop a system that anyone could use to build any business using all the tools the internet has to offer.
They developed quite a successful inexpensive internet marketing system and they introduce people to it through a free enrollment at Renegade University. In other words, they are not afraid to give away trade secrets for free. Their system is so workable and so user friendly that they let anyone test drive it for free.
There are at least 20 free tutorials, 4 free taped webinars, a free e-book, customer support by email and a phone number to call in on.
The training covers the basics of Attraction Marketing. They walk you though it click by click and get you started with free internet advertising. I have not seen ANYWHERE else on the web that offers this quantity of free internet marketing training. The data is invaluable for anyone who wants to use the internet to attract business.
