Spotted at age 10 when she and her brother auditioned for a commercial and accidentally tripped at the stairs that broke her nose, half Albanian-half Danish Eliza Dushku paved her way to stardom as she acted like a drama queen. Born on December 30, 1980 at Boston Massachusetts. Being the youngest of three brothers, she grew up in a Mormon family with parents who are both professors. His older brother Nate happens to be an actor and a model. Her parents divorced before she was born.

Since her childhood years, she is into sports like football and ice hockey. She studied drums, piano and dances as well as she became a regular performer at the Watertown Children's Theater. She attended high school at the Watertown High School. She planned to pursue her English course at Suffolk University but stardom snatch her away.

Casting calls for lead role Alice in the movie That Night. She was chosen among other hopefuls at age 10. That stint open doors for her as she stared alongside Robert de Niro and Leonardo di Caprio in This Boy's Life. She landed on other projects such as True Lies, Bye Bye, Love, and Race the Sun. Not only that, she also appeared in television films and short films.

After her few years break, Eliza landed as the sexy and crooked Faith in the Warner Bros. show Buffy the Vampire Slayer starring equally hot and sexy Sarah Michelle Gellar. Her part is originally written for five episodes, she lasted the entire third season and reprise her role in the two-part episode in season four. Faith returned as a heroine in Angel opposite David Boreanaz. Being an effective actress in a sociopath role, she became an icon of some criminals.

Her huge T.V. success made her easy to crossover the movie scene. Her comeback film Bring It On along with Kirsten Dunst is a surprise hit of 2000. The following year, she made The New Guy opposite DJ Qualls and her reunion film with Robert De Niro via City By the Sea. Then followed Kevin Smith's film Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back together with hot Ben Affleck, equally hot and sexy stars Shannon Elizabeth and Ali Larter. Her follow-up movie Wrong Turn took her as the lead role about five people held as prey to a group of cannibals.

In 2003, she stars in a FOX T.V. series Tru Calling where she played the main character Tru Davies. The series lasted for 27 episodes when the network canceled its airing in favor of Point Pleasant. She set her feet off in Broadways via Dog Sees God taken from the original Peanuts comic strip. Her voice is dubbed in the PlayStation 2 video game Yakuza and appeared in Simple Plan's video I'm Just a Kid.

Her status as a celebrity has been put into good use. She helps her father gain funds in The Elisha Dushku Foundation that aims to help Camp Hale and its maintenance. She also landed the Maxim's charts as she topped at no.13 in the Hot 100 List. This just proves that she's not hot, sexy and beautiful but also got a heart of gold for those whose in need.

We all love to splash out - to make like a film star for the night, breezing through endless high-life bars, sipping cocktails and flashing the cash, then dragging everyone back to the hotel pad, where the party really takes shape.

Hotels are the ultimate - there's nothing more extravagant than spreading your clothes over the penthouse suite of some boutique guestroom, throwing yourself on the bed with room service at hand, ordering heavenly desserts at all hours and dissolving into the 007 fantasy with your choice company till dawn. Breakfast in bed, sipping on Margaritas and happiness in the knowledge that the bed will be made & the mini-bar restocked by midday.

If all that hedonism takes its toll, then a trip to the gym at brunch or a spot of self-pampering in the spa for an hour or two will compensate before swinging on by the lobby bar for some more superstar misbehaviour.

The Sanderson, The Metropolitan, St Martin's Lane, The Trafalgar - all belong to the fabulous world of hotel heaven. Their bars - The Purple Room, Met Bar, Light Bar and Rockwell respectively, home to the jet-setting glitterati of superstar lifestyle. If you're looking to grand it up, then a night in one of London's top boutique pads is the only way forward. Expensive, maybe. Extravagant, most definitely. But worth every penny, without a doubt.

You can group the A-list London hotels into three families. Firstly, there's the close-knit, touchy-feely family of the boutique hotels. These intimate surroundings could be as small as a cottage or as big as a mansion, but house no more than a few dozen rooms.

Blakes fits into this category. In this case, just a handful of rooms, which Anushka Hempel has decked out herself, travelling the world and sending back furniture befitting the various themes. Each room individually decorated from opulent Oriental to slim-line Mediterranean. The Hempel too has this intimate home from home attitude, though at The Hempel, the theme is crisp and airy, whitewashed walls with wispy drapes, sunken Japanese baths - it even has a private garden. At the boutique hotels, you will get the ultimate personal touch and are more than likely to cross paths with Elle or Kate at reception.

The next family is the bigger, modern variety of cool hotel. The Sanderson, St Martin's Lane, The Trafalgar and The Great Eastern all eat at this table. We're talking big, bold, busy buildings with a hundred or so rooms. They probably won't remember your name at reception, but depending on your behaviour that may be a blessing. With the modern variety, you still get the cool surroundings - the Space Odyssey lifts at The Sanderson, the art gallery lobby of St Martin's Lane, individually designed rooms and immaculate, staff in between modelling jobs - but on top of that, you get all of the mod cons. You'll get the CD & DVD player, the Playstation console, the chauffeur service, internet and the gym and spa. The bar will be bigger, busier and the service more anonymous.

The final family is the traditional family, where minimalism has no home, replaced instead by opulence and luxuriance. Here we're talking the Langham, The Mandarin Oriental and The Landmark. Grand, majestic hotels, where money is no object and where the top suites will set you back a cool £3k+ per night. The Mandarin Oriental is pure self-indulgence. You can have your own butler and spend the whole day in the spa, where you will while away six and a half hours having your face 'nourished', enjoying salt & oil scrubs, balanese synchronised massage (that's two masseurs working on you in tandem) and a luxury aromatherapy facial.

The bars of these superhotels are all well known in the right circles. The Sanderson's Long Bar and private Purple Bar, St Martin's Lane's Light Bar, The Rockwell (Trafalgar), I-Thai at The Hempel.- all offer that truly exclusive experience that makes for a perfectly extravagant night on the town. While the cocktail capabilities of your local Holiday Inn will be all but non-existent, in the grand world of exclusive hotels, drinks are a speciality. Trader Vic's and Zeta (London Hilton) have inspired many of the best mixologists about. Rockwell houses over 100 bourbons, The Whiskey Bar at The Athenaeum offers one of the best whiskey selections in Europe and the Purple Bar a knock-out array of vodkas. Then when it comes to cocktails, they come into their own. Bars like The Met, The Light and The Long Bar are supreme masters in their class, conjuring up the most magical potions and offering page after page of temptation.
Everyone moans about getting home from the West End after a night on the razz, but remember, credit card permitting, there's always the option of finishing the night in style, sleeping it off in comfort and lavishing yourself with a touch of the grand life.

The bars of London's top hotels are unarguably a breed of their own. Sophisticated and speckled with celebrity faces, they are the unsung heroes of the bar world. The Met Bar (Metropolitan Hotel) has forever been known for its celebrity scuffles and the paparazzi hang at the door like starved vultures. Schrager's sexy little numbers are all bursting with creative flavour. Be showered with colour under the smiling light-wells of the Light Bar (St Martin's Lane), be bathed in the heavenly glow of The Long Bar (The Sanderson) while big blue eyes watch you from the seat backs or be flooded with luxury at the jaw-droppingly beautiful Purple Room (The Sanderson), its cut crystal and granite bar probably the most visually stunning place to prop yourself at in the world (though you'll have to book a good room to get in!) The old dames of the hotel world offer some real old school glamour in their bars. The Hilton Park Lane's Windows Bar with its top-floor views across London and exotically themed Trader Vic's in the basement are two founder members of the hotel bar scene.

For something seriously slick and ultra contemporary, head to Blakes or The Hempel or recently refurbished Mandarin Bar to sip cocktails with London's most fashionable. Get intimate in the dark-wood sophistication of the GE Club (Great Eastern Hotel) or spread yourself about at the commodious Rockwell (The Trafalgar) and equally spacious Axis (1 Aldwych). Spend winter in the cosy warm environment of 190 Queensgate (The Gore) or summer soaking up the Noho vibe at open-fronted Charlotte Street.

Wherever you end up, grab a seat, pick up a Watermelon Martini and sip yourself slowly into the high life.

With the current high divorce rate and millions of people in jail for domestic violence, many singles are afraid to commit their love. Many of these singles have been wounded. However, a recent study is revealing that it is the ability to face this pre-marital fear that separates the successfully married from the unhappy and failed marriages.

You can overcome these dating fears if you take these important steps before committing your heart to him/her:

• Become fully knowledgeable on how to make lifetime winning decisions, and
• Work on yourself.

So, what are the fears faced in today’s dating world? More than 300 interviewed Single adults said they feared these possible endings:

a) Fear of opening up your private life to someone else to scrutinize and evaluate, with the likelihood of being rejected by the woman or man you admire most.

b) Fear that you may not find your ideal lifetime lover to share your passion and destiny with.

c) Fear that you could choose an inferior partner who may not reciprocate your passion and devotion to the same degree of delightful care and value.

d) Fear that his/her true image will emerge after the wedding day, and that you may not like what you see then; the hidden impostor, the pretender, and the unpleasant baggage.

e) Fear that your marriage could end up as “for-worse” instead of “for-better” and that you may not end up as you are dreaming.

f) Fear of losing your total independence, being answerable to someone else, and adjusting your lifestyle to accommodate his/her needs and wishes.

g) Fear of being in an abusive relationship with an immature and control freak as a wife or husband.

h) Fear of making relationship mistakes and being alone again, like someone you know who even after repeated failure could not keep a spouse for long.

i) Fear of marrying a loser, and the future challenge of having to go back into the dating world to choose again.

Recruitment Consultant is the perfect Job for a graduate coming out of university to find themselves faced with a highly competitive job market, armed with a degree not specifically targeted to any job in the real world.

I had a 2nd Class Degree in Philosophy when I graduated. There wasn't a single job in the paper asking for that! Nevertheless there are numerous ways to get a job in recruitment and earn the big bucks.

The standard procedure is to post your CV on a job board like Monster and then apply to the recruiter jobs posted there in. This method can be effective in generating interest. Depending on your location barriers to entry in the industry are sometimes very low, however competition can be high.

Actual recruiting experience, though desirable, is most definitely not essential. Telephone or face to face sales experience, or even just the right attitude coming straight from school or university can be all it takes to get your first job.

A good way to break into a firm is to know someone working there already that will put in a good word for you. Assuming that you don't have that luxury the best thing you can do to demonstrate you have the fearless, entrepreneurial attitude that will impress any recruitment manager is to approach a firm yourself, just like I did when I started out. Coming out of university I broke into the industry by turning up at an agency first thing in the morning, a copy of my CV in hand, and asking to speak to the manager. I handed him my CV and looked him straight in the eye. I told him I wanted a high paying job, and asked what he had for me? The combination of my up front confident attitude, and surprising him by turning up first thing on a Monday morning impressed him and he asked me back to meet a team leader that very day.

I researched what recruiters do and made sure I asked the team leader as many if not more questions than he asked me. Within an hour I had a job offer and began my career. That was at a small firm with approximately 15 recruiters. It was also over 6 years ago. Since then I have interviewed countless potential consultants for my employers, and I have worked alongside many recruiters who have moved around to different firms in the industry during their career. Not only that, I went through a grueling series of interviews to secure my dream recruitment job in London. I have more than enough experience of the recruitment industry hiring process to improve your success rate at interview. So if you are looking to get your first job in recruitment, or to change firms and move up the career ladder, I suggest you do the following.

Research

If you are new to the industry do your research. Reading this book will be more than enough to ensure you have the skills to do the job, but a few hours on the net finding as many sources as possible will be valuable time well spent. Once you have done that ring up a firm you are interested in and tell them you are looking to get into recruitment. Ask if there is someone you can speak to, to ask a few questions. Have plenty of questions ready. Asking questions is a huge part of the job and if you interview the recruiter they will notice it, and remember you. Speak loudly, slower than usual and clearly. Learn everything you can from the call. Just this call will be enough to pique their curiosity, and there is every chance they will ask for your contact details or ask you in to meet them. At the end thank them for their help, and ask if they have any openings at the moment?

Whatever their answer, ask who is in charge of hiring and if you can send them a copy of your CV to hold on file. Tell them you would be very interested in joining should an opportunity become available. Once again this will make a very good impression. The recruiter will be telling their manager about your call. Any good recruitment firm is always ready to hire another consultant. Each new consultant means more money, and more profit. It's just a matter of whether they are prepared to train you from scratch or only hire experienced consultants.

Next you want to find as many firms in your area as possible to apply to. Use the telephone directory and Google and local papers. A fantastic resource is the website KellySearch where you can look up numerous companies in a particular sector. Record email, telephone and website details for all the agencies you can find. You will be calling through the list, and emailing them all a copy of your CV. The aim here is to secure as many interviews as possible. 3 or 5 interviews down the line and you will have been asked every question you can imagine. You will be prepared for anything. No matter how nervous or unprepared you were at interview 1 by now you will be relaxed at interview. You can name drop other firms you are interviewing with and probably offers you have received too.

This makes you appear calm, confident and in demand. A hot prospect who turned up to the office in person asking for the manager, who has interviews all over town, and has already received offers from competitor agencies is 100% more likely to receive an offer than a student who emails their CV in and calls a week later to ask if it has been received!

An aspect of recruitment you may not be aware of is 'Rec2Rec' or Recruitment to Recruitment. Rec2Rec firms help recruiters move from firm to firm and charge agencies for finding them new consultants. Agencies despise paying fees to Rec2Rec's who are basically doing their job for them, and charging a premium. If an agency is looking for a new trainee consultant and a Rec2Rec has recently sent them several graduate CVs that look good, but then you turn up at the door; maybe not as well educated but obviously confident, well researched, and well presented, they will hire you and avoid paying the Rec2Rec every time! Rec2Recs often source their trainee recruiter candidates from Graduates who have posted their CVs online. Use this technique to jump ahead of them.

Your CV

Recruiters look at thousands of CVs a year so it is important that yours is well presented. Have a look online for some examples. Make sure to include an abstract under your contact details. This is a short paragraph written in the third person describing your skills and personality. Assuming that you are fresh from education and have limited experience then you are aiming for something along the lines of:

"An enthusiastic and dedicated Graduate who enjoys being part of a successful and productive team. A dynamic and hard working individual with a keen eye for detail and an analytical mind. A determined and commercially aware person with the ability to manage projects to on-time completion. Works well on own initiative and can demonstrate the high levels of motivation and organisation required to consistently meet sales and performance targets. Possesses excellent interpersonal skills and communicates well at all levels. Thrives in high pressure, target driven working environments."

Feel free to edit that to your hearts content. Underneath have your educational record and then any work experience. Format for this can be as follows:

"May 2004 - September 2006
Commercial Recruitment Consultant & New Business Developer
Handbag Recruitment, Colchester, Essex
A recruitment consultancy specialising in Commercial, Sales and Service Sectors

I beat the monthly sales target set for experienced consultants by the end of my third month, and have continued to meet and exceed all monthly sales and performance targets since then.

o Establishing and maintaining strong client relationships for repeat business.
o Managing multiple clients in diverse industries.

Etc..."

Depending on the company you worked for it is always wise to include a short line describing what they do. It is not always apparent what ABC Ltd do from their company name. If your job title and bullet points are also somewhat generic it may not be clear what kind of work you actually did! This happens a lot more than you might think, so ensure it doesn't happen on your CV.

Once you have your hot CV ready, and you have forwarded it to 20 plus firms and called them all up or visited in person you will no doubt have some interview requests. If not, you may need to work on your CV some more! Or you can post your CV on all the Job Boards online and apply for every recruiting job on offer.

Now I am confident you have interviews arranged. To ensure your success do as I sad before and book as many as you can. Even if you are not interested in a particular firm, attend anyway! You want to approach each interview as though it is a Practice Interview, and you are researching the company and the industry. This is what you are doing, and will ensure you take the pressure off of yourself and are able to relax and ask questions without fear of messing up. Trust me - after 5 interviews at different firms you will be as sharp as a razor and the offers will flood in.

Before you set off remember to put on smart business attire. Suited and Booted. Tie done up. Clean shaven (and the equivalent for girls). It is better to be over rather than under dressed. You must give the impression that you are 'all business' and that you are serious about the job. Even if the agency you are going to operate casual dress - many do - you must turn up dressed to impress. Make your first impression count. Have plenty of pre prepared questions, and when they are answered you must reply describing how elements of your professional experience, or personal character, are what is desired / or make you suited to the job. Recruiters are loud, confident communicators, driven by a desire to make lots of money. You must show you are money motivated, competitive, and thick skinned. A hard work ethic and expecting to work long hours when required always goes down well. You will have to work long hours starting out. Once you are billing above your targets and bringing in lots of new business, hours will be shorter!

Concentrate on the impression you want to give at interview. The same person can interview with 5 different companies and come across completely differently at each one. Begin by making good eye contact (without holding on forever like a weirdo) giving a firm handshake, and a smile! Watch how the interviewer acts, how they talk, and remember what you think is important to them as the meeting progresses. After each interview go home and write out every thing you remember. Several interviews along you should have lots of notes to digest. Model yourself on the interviewers themselves, and the most important notes you have written down. You will be well on your way to having all the knowledge you need to give stunningly good interviews from then on.

At the end of each interview if you have not been offered the job you must close by telling the manager you have been impressed and would love to work with them. Then ask 'What is the next stage?' This makes clear your interest, and ensured that you know what happens next and when. If you have done all of the above, I expect you will have been offered the job before you have to ask. However, they may have other applicants to see so you must make your intent clear. If you are told that you will be contacted in a weeks time then press the issue. Say that you 'have some other offers on the table' and that you 'want to make an informed decision asap'. Follow with 'Is there anything you are unsure about or you would like to know more, about me?' If the manager has any small doubts you will hear them now. Answer well and clear these up and knowing you have other options 9 out of 10 times you will get your offer and the job will be yours - if you want it. They may not have even had other people to see, and just been testing your interest. Do not accept a 'no' or a 'not yet' and always press for a reason why that you can respond to and then re-express your interest. Being able to push in a negotiation like this is a key part of the recruiter job. If you get the chance to do this at your interview you must take it. As it is guaranteed to impress the manager!

So you got an offer - well done! Do you accept right away? Well that depends how happy you are with it! If you have several others on the table then you could try and negotiate further. Say that you are really keen to accept but you have been offered more by several other agencies. Tell them you would love to join, and if they match X figure then you will accept right away. See what you can get on top of the offer. If nothing else it will be fun to do. Of course if you are happy then go for it. I would still attend any other interviews you have booked. You never know, you might like them more, or get a better offer. You will find every agency is different, so having offers from several will enable you to choose the one most suited to you, and what you are looking for.

So there you go, that's how you can get a job in Recruitment. It's a fantastic industry to work in, where the financial rewards can be substantial.

The Renault Clio, a run of the mill small hatchback aimed squarely at the mass market. A reliable super mini driven by new drivers, mothers on the school run and old dears popping down to the shops. So what happens when you add an insane body kit, rip out the rear passenger seats and shove a growling 3.0 litre V6 in the back of one these sedate little motors? Well Renault decided to find out in 2001 when they did just that and unleashed the Renault Clio V6 Sport in Europe.

The Clio V6 was superficially based upon the MKII Renault Clio although in reality the two cars share few components. This was quite necessary to transform the standard Clio from a front wheel drive, front engine car typically using a 1.2 or 1.4 litre engine, to a mid engine rear wheel drive hot hatch. The major difference is of course the engine - the 3.0 litre V6 being sourced from the Laguna, Renault's large saloon model, before being heavily tuned to deliver 252bhp.

The most obvious difference to the untrained eye is the Clio V6's looks. You can still see the standard little Clio underneath the body kit if you squint but it's a tough job, the original styling drowning in huge bumpers, air intakes and almost ridiculously wide wheel arches. This is not a subtle car and was not designed to go unnoticed. The design ethos extends to the cars practicality - it's not. With the rear end of the car dominated by the engine, rear passenger seats are gone, the boot is gone, fuel economy is, yes, gone.

Even being as heavily modified as it was, the Clio V6 was not a class leader by any means. Unrefined and very heavy for its humble size, the Clio was little match around a track against the Japanese rivals of the time. And despite the engine, the extra weight meant that much more modest hot hatches could keep up with the Clio V6 in a straight line. Ownership was not a walk in the park either, the Clio V6 having a high price tag, low fuel economy and a high Clio insurance group. This was ultimately beside the point however. In a time of restraint and blandness in the motor industry, the Clio was a breath of fresh air. Quirky, a little bit mad and most importantly - fun.

If you really want to see some examples of what is behind the atrociously high attrition rate in the home business/internet marketing world, just log into some of the sites now being aggressively marketed via radio advertising.

These are exactly the type of over-the-top ad copies which will appeal to either one's laziness, or ignorance - or both. I fell for it; and I would like to think it was out of ignorance of all "all things internet". The fine line of distinction here is the difference between the "lotto mentality" of get-rich-quick, and the fundamental desire of all of us to gain more while expending less. Either way, you can be hooked; and for the wrong reasons.

In previous articles I have promoted the concept of "personal branding" and "attraction marketing," along with perhaps some really good schooling in the intricacies of Google Adwords, as the only ways to achieve and sustain value in internet marketing which is independent of any product offering or enterprise. By combining advertising savvy with the building and promoting of an image of "leader", "trusted advisor", and "expert", one can attract a loyal following who will tend to sign on for whatever proposition one is offering. Without exception, the highest earners in this industry understand this, and they are applying these principles.

The flip side of this, of course, is total dependence on the large "plug and play" systems. It is my contention that - because of the high-attrition business models of these programs - they amount to the proverbial "house of cards" which will some day fall because of the constant need for member replenishment.

The mantra of one of these is "People fail; Systems don't!" This is so grossly inaccurate; I hardly know how to respond. Suffice it to say: Internet marketing is a people business, like almost any business. The "system" is nothing more than a tool - to be used, or misused.

Based upon my own previous participation with this program - allow me to dissect a few of the other fundamental flaws in the business model:

1. The back office support system was grossly over-priced. For my MLM, I signed up for a system which sent a series of "autoresponder" emails and also tracked my opt-in leads. The price tag was $300/month. I now get the same back-office support for $17/month!
2. I was part of a replicated website system for my advertising. Search engines avoid these!
3. I was encouraged, even pressured, to attend gung-ho "training" conference calls daily. There was a lot of cheerleading in these, but seldom was there anything given which would make any member a more effective internet marketer.
4. The vital tools of Personal Branding and Attraction Marketing (as mentioned above) were seldom, if ever mentioned.
5. My upline sponsors encouraged, even pressured me to buy expensive ad copy; though I was given no guidance about ad copy or search engine optimization.
6. I was directed toward - and encouraged to buy - dubious "leads" from lead generating entities. As a novice, of course, I was unaware that these "leads" (if indeed, they are actually real people) had undoubtedly been sold previously to many other parties.
7. The radio co-op advertising, which still is the "lifeblood" of this particular program, was entirely misleading. One ad which seemed to run endlessly, featured a man who declared that he was able to earn $40,000 in his second month of membership! (This may, or may not be true. It is my well-founded suspicion that this individual had "special advantages" which are simply not available to the common person. At any rate, only a tiny percentage of even the most successful ever see these numbers. See below.)

Perhaps you are now asking, "How does anyone survive in this environment?" Obviously, a few achieve a degree of success.

The founders are faring well, of course. Other "big hitters" were able to bring in large downline organizations from other MLM's. One such person came over from an outfit by the name of Xango. He was thus able to reap a sizable early one-time harvest of bonuses. I am almost certain that this very same gentleman was a featured player in the deception, as described above, on one of the long-running radio ads.

The few others who hang around and achieve a modicum of success are comprised mostly of folks who pay for numerous and expensive "positions" in the radio co-ops.
Again, let me remind my readers: 1) One's success will be largely dependent upon the success or failure of this system; and 2) Members will be in constant "replacement" mode for new affiliates. Instead of mentoring and coaching new colleagues, one will be expending almost all energy toward selling.

Does this business model sound interesting, or profitable?

The common reaction among members involved in this kind of scheme varies from frustration, to confusion, to anger. Most folks fail, and in the process spend thousands of dollars.

The real damage happens when good folks are permanently turned off from the whole idea of a home business.

Cast iron cookware is some of the best and most popular out there. It is definitely from an older school of design and use, but that definitely does not make it inferior to more recent models! It has long been a favorite choice of many groups, from long time housewives and mothers to independent chefs to serious campers and hikers.

Many people swear that food tests better out of this type of pan than any substitute. Cooking with cast iron is not held to just one group, either. Some of the dishes that are most commonly pointed to as being best out of cast iron include everything from Cajun seafood to Mexican style fajitas to any type of breakfast food. Even cornbread! Such a variety shows what can be done with this cookware.

Cast iron is popular for many different reasons. Unlike say stainless steel, it is an ideal heat conductor and will almost always heat evenly and consistently. It is relatively cheap in comparison with many other types of cookware, and with proper care can last multiple generations, a claim many other types of cookware cannot make.

It is easy to learn to use cast iron, and since you should preheat your cookware before using, you even get a head start on dinner preparation. One of the most popular methods of checking to know if the pan is ready is to drop a few (not many) drops of water on the pan. If the drops sizzle, then the pan is ready. If it disappears instantly, then you need to cool the pan down a little.

One important note: do not pour large amounts of cold liquid into a hot pan, since this is the one thing that can cause the cast iron to break.

Proper care of cast iron is most often referred to as "seasoning." This type of pan is unusual in that it is not supposed to be scrubbed often. Seasoning, instead, is when you embed oil and grease into the pores of the iron cookware, which prevents rust.

Seasoning is done by warming the pot or skillet, then rubbing a thin layer of shortening or corn oil all over the surface of the pan, inside and out. Afterward, lay the pot or skillet upside down inside a 350-degree oven. Most suggest one hour, while some other manufactures suggest as many as 4-5. The shortening will turn in to a non-sticky, hard coating. Allow the pan to cool overnight.

Cast iron retains heat effectively; so make sure to allow plenty of time to cool so you don't burn your hands. Seasoning should be repeated after each use of the cookware. As one downside: be wary of using acidic foods, which can deteriorate the seasoning, which makes the pan itself more vulnerable to rust and damage.

Wash cast iron in hot water only, and dry. Seasoning is always important, and you don't want to scrub unless absolutely necessary, because scrubbing will take away the layer of shortening that protects the pots from rust. If you have to scrub, then make sure you season the pan afterwards to repair its protective coat. Drying over heat is also important. It can be dried over an oven burner turned on low.

While the maintenance of cast iron may seem daunting, it is actually easy, and the high quality of food, affordability of pans, and ability to pass the cookware from generation to generation makes it a tough choice to beat.

Avid photographers or photography school students already know a great deal about the profession and about items that can be used over and above the skilled use of a digital camera and editing software to enhance the overall quality of their photographic images. Photo lighting equipment is usually the first item of importance for most photographers of this caliber to attain for higher quality photo images.

For new photographers or those looking to produce higher quality photo's, there are a multitude of photography studio equipment items that can bring your photographic images to an all new level. The most important of these items after your camera is the addition of external lighting or a photo lighting kit which serves the purpose of highlighting the subject, be it a person or a product and also gives you the ability to control and manipulate the lighting to capture the subject in the way that you wish too.

There are generally two types of photography lighting equipment . Flash lighting, sometimes referred to as strobe lighting is often used by professional photographers. Flash lighting is frequently used in pro photography studio's or during modeling shoots, weddings and other memorable events. It is the more technologically advanced type of photo lighting, requiring the synchronized timing of the camera's shutter to the flash.

The second type of lighting is called continuous photo lighting or "hot lights" as they are often referred too. Continuous photography lighting creates a constant source of high quality light and are much easier for photographers to use in comparison to flash lighting. Simply turn on the lights and you can begin shooting right away without the need to have your camera synced or wired with the lighting, and they will remain on until they are no longer needed. The scene is always lit or "hot" and ready for photo or video production right away.

Continuous photography lights can be found in either halogen or fluorescent. Halogen photography lighting burns brightly and also burns hot, earning the nickname "hot lights" long ago. Halogen lighting has been a long time favorite of photographers because of it's sheer brightness. However, that brightness not only requires more electricity, it also literally raises the temperature of a studio or home as well.

Fluorescent photographic lighting in comparison runs much more efficiently and consumes less electricity while remaining virtually heat free as it simulates sunlight in photography. It doesn't burn as brightly as halogen lighting does but to overcome that, photographers simply choose a higher wattage photo kit. Fluorescent photography bulbs last for an incredible 10,000 hours.

Regardless of what caliber of a photographer you may be, lighting in photography whether naturally provided or simulated photo lighting. Will increase the quality of your photographs and help you to have the consistency needed to create higher quality photographic images, making them all very memorable and potentially profitable as well.

REASON 3: We Ignore This Learning Style At Our Peril

"I hear and I forget,
I see and I remember,
I do and I understand." -Chinese Proverb

There is one learning style that is absolutely essential if young children are to learn effectively. Children demonstrate their love of this approach on a daily basis often to the accompaniment of hair being torn out by frustrated parents. Young children are 'hands on' learners. Nothing is usually too hot or too heavy. This tactile approach to life in general is their way of discovering and processing information about the world around them.

"Children are born true scientists. They spontaneously experiment and experience and re-experience again. They select, combine, and test, seeking to find order in their experiences - "which is the mostest? which is the leastest? They smell, taste, bite, and touch-test for hardness, softness, springiness, roughness, smoothness, coldness, warmness: they heft, shake, punch, squeeze, push, crush, rub, and try to pull things apart." (R. Buckminster Fuller)

Play is how children utilize this particular learning style. Play is one of the most powerful vehicles for facilitating learning. When you play with your child you are demonstrating how much you value them and enjoy their company. This helps build self-esteem and many studies now reveal that children with high emotional intelligence will outperform children with higher IQ but lower self esteem.

In the UK questions are being asked regarding whether children are given enough time to simply play. The pattern seems to be that children are given more time to play during their early years in school but towards the middle years a more formal approach dominates their school day. Emeritus Professor Barbara Prashnig argues that the tendency for state education to focus on a more formal, left-brain orientated approach to learning can have disastrous implications for a significant percentage of children, particularly boys, who tend to be predominantly tactile learners.

These children often rebel against a system that has failed to accommodate their needs and a small but significant minority can exert a disproportionately disruptive influence within schools before eventually disengaging with the formal learning process altogether. This, asserts Professor Prashnig, has serious implications for us all.

Craig Ramey of the University of Alabama appears to provide compelling evidence in support of this theory.

"Seventy-five percent of all imprisoned males in America have poor school records and low IQs," Ramey pointed out. "Tracing their backgrounds turns up a familiar pattern: They begin as children from disadvantaged families starting school academically behind. They don't know how to read or do basic math because they are in poor systems they get little help. Growing frustration often turns into truancy, school failure, aggression and violence. . ."

(Ronald Kotulak quotes Craig Ramey of the University of Alabama in his book 'Inside the Brain')

Failure to engage these men at a young age has proved disastrous for them and the communities they live in. But this is not an issue confined to the USA. In the Forbury district of Dunedin in New Zealand, Barbara Prashnig has been overseeing a radical experiment. The local school was on the verge of anarchy. In desperation the local education authority turned to Professor Prashnig for help. Her immediate response was to request a complete change of staff. New staff would be trained in delivering the curriculum in a variety of teaching styles suited to the individual needs of the learner.

I was privileged to spend a fortnight at the school observing Headteacher Janis Tofia and her staff successfully meeting the considerable challenges posed by a badly failing school in an area where gang culture is a fact of life. If these methods can work in that situation they can work anywhere.

Many teachers do not appear to know how to harness the power of play to effectively lead children to an understanding of math concepts. This is hardly surprising as teachers strive to meet externally imposed targets with little emphasis or guidance given on how to implement play based learning in the math class. The text book and worksheet rule the day. Until schools are allowed more freedom to adopt a more child-centered approach children will continue to struggle in math and many will ultimately disengage from learning altogether. Is this the fate your child could face? More to the point, are you prepared to take that risk?

I believe the program I have created can solve the problem of how to teach math concepts through play. It provides a clear and progressive framework but also needs the commitment of a parent or teacher to guide, direct and pose the challenges that will create a stimulating, stress free but highly challenging learning environment.

Are you ready to make that commitment? If you are you may be as surprised to discover just as I did that learning math can be extremely fulfilling on many levels.

I really hope you are interested enough to read my next article as we take a close look at the math model your child will need to play with every day.

Introduction

For more than thirty years developing countries' economic problems have created major financial crises in the international community. Developing countries have remained so due to their low-income economies. African and Middle East countries live in ethnic diverse communities and are subject to political instability and corruption than Asia and Latin American countries that live in more homogeneous communities. There is more cost involved in a population of workers and who belong to different ethnic groups because of diversity, cultural differences, religion and language. The purpose of this economic development model is to address economic stability, the problems (value inhibitors), solutions (value drivers), the strategies and implementations of the economic enhancement in order to help the developing countries be less dependent on developed countries. So many studies have been conducted on developing countries, but none of the studies have focused on how the developing countries could apply or use the economic models with less participation of the industrialized countries. World Bank and United Nations ought to examine minutely any potential foreign aid application while focusing on this model for developing countries. This model will enhance in devising a strategic means of monitoring the developing countries before distributing fund to those that may not use the model or practice noncompliance. The practical sense of the use of this model is to elevate the developing countries to economic success and stability, and reduce their dependency on developed countries.

Role of leadership

In developing countries, most leaders behave and think differently. Although, these may not be tolerated by developed countries, they are the norm and are based on their ethnicity, beliefs, religion, culture, social classes, and assumption of supremacy. Negotiating and managing conflicts in developing countries is a matter of understanding the genetic makeup of that country. Diversity may create needs but these needs do not have to be neglected in order to create balance among the ethnic or sectarian groups. A Western countries' style of negotiating and resolving conflicts may not be applicable in the developing countries where religion and ethnicity have continuously impacted the leadership in those countries. Hence, the inefficient and ineffective leadership have led to social development and economic neglect that have caused the worse economy and poverty in those areas. If politics are set aside and economic benefits are put in the forefront by these developed countries, the chances of conflict resolution will be increased.

Leaders who have vision for change may think about what the impact the economic and market development will have in the long-run, and in the locations and in the life of its citizens. The social problems in Malaysia exist because of the ethnic Chinese who are not Muslim in a country where over 90 percent of the population is Muslim.

In developed countries, situations create focus on civilization and leadership, where civilization shapes leaders and leaders shape civilization. Power is treated as a shared resource, but in most developing countries coercion is the system used by leaders. Leaders use physical, economic, and social threats and punishments to induce change in followers for the sake of the leaders. The leaders therefore have become power wielders. These leadership problems have impacted the economic and market structure of the countries. Hence, a new model may mean a step to a new and better way of life for all the developing countries. The Western part of the Asia continent is predominantly Muslims and still have untapped resources that have not been explored because of dictatorship, politics, religion, culture, beliefs, and diversity. Exploring these countries and helping them stabilize will transcend to trading with other developing countries, which will in turn pull them out of poverty, instability, and create peace among the sectarian and ethnic groups.

Asia

Before the coming of the tsunami in December 26 2005, the South Asian countries were poor and developing. Both the South and East Asia have untapped economic sources. These potential raw materials need to be explored in order to help develop the economic and market structure of the region. The tsunami destroyed the infrastructure, economy, and the lives of the people of the South Asian countries. The 6.3 in magnitude earthquake that hit the central java of Indonesia on May 27, 2006 destroyed what was left of the tsunami. These countries will benefit from cash crop, livestock, and poultry production because of their adequate weather and availability of natural water, which will not require a high technology in order to irrigate the farmland. Mechanized farming will need to be introduced and implemented to aid in maximizing production of agricultural products. The Eastern part of South Korea has a comparative advantage over industrial, commercial, and manufacturing production. Producing and trading on building, automobile, motorcycle, and other petty materials in the form of buying and selling will enhance in the development of the market setting and economy. This will help in the stabilization of the East and South Asian countries. A stable economy will help resolve and manage conflict in these countries that have different ethnic groups and history of diversity. The economic and market structure may also aid in the stability of the leadership, political and social system. The environmental problems may need to be addressed in order to guard against pollution or any unhealthy by products or waste materials that may cause harm to people or have short or long term health problems or may be fatal to people. If these countries are stable, they will attract foreign investments rather than needing foreign aid. The military disturbances in East Timor are not helping the economic and the market structure of the young independent country.

The four factors that determine the economic growth are labor, capital, land, and Entrepreneurship. Developing countries have more labor force with lower wages than developed countries and yet their economic growth is still lower than that of the developed countries. Capital is another problem facing developing countries. They need resources such as equipments, machines, factories, and money to work with. Labor without capital is synonymous to guns without bullets. Capital will also represent an investment that will pay off in the future. Most developing countries have untapped resources such as oil, gold, diamond, minerals, forests, and water that represent land which by themselves cannot stimulate economic growth unless they are explored and converted to goods and services. Technology enhances economic growth. A group of agricultural researchers from Texas A&M University and University of California-Davis acquired a four-year grand of $4.4 million from U.S Agency for International Development's Mission to Afghanistan eGrazing. This discovery will aid the livestock herders to successfully tend to cattle, sheep, horses and goats. If this system had been in place, it may have made an impact during the tsunami in Indonesia. Political and social factors that inhibit Economic Growth are corruption, instability, lack of leadership and administrative skills, population growth, and lack of business enterprises.

Africa

African countries are very poor and in dare need of economic and market structure development. Before these countries go global, they may to have sufficient needs of life by taking comparative advantage of their sources of raw material. Some have cash crops that need to be irrigated, some have livestock and poultry that need to be technologically upgraded, and market structure that needs to be redesigned, developed and implemented. The improvement of the agriculture will help the poor farmers send their children to school, build infrastructure, develop the quality of institutions, and make a smooth run of transportation.

Middle East

Middle East region is a turbulence area because of instability associated with religion, oil, dictatorship, and developed countries' influence. The Iraq war has devastated the whole region, and couple with the Israel, Palestinian, and Lebanese conflict, which has created further economic drawbacks that amount in billions of dollars. The destruction of the infrastructures, and the lost of lives have sent the economy of Lebanese country decades backwards.

Latin America

Development in Latin Americans countries could stem from agriculture, forestry and fishing, to mining, and manufacturing. These Latinos can help in building their countries rather than trying to immigrate to United States of America. If guided, they will improve their countries' economy and help in the marketing of agricultural, manufacturing and other natural resources. Immigrants spend much time in the state of California farms, Illinois factories, North Carolina, and areas in the north east of United States of America working mostly in food industries. These efforts can be redirected to Latin America in order to develop the entire area.

Political struggles, lack of administrative skills, and power supremacy have strangled the economic and market structure of most countries in Latin America. For decades the Latinos have traveled north of the border to United States of America in search of better lives. This economic situation has resulted in the deaths and mutilations of people trying to enter United States of America. The smugglers who are known as the "coyotes" have made huge profits for attempting to transport these illegal Latinos across the border. It is very dangerous ventures because of the hot temperature, train transportation, unhygienic felt, bad weather, lack of food, water, and other unknown dangers along the road to the border. Immigrants spend months traveling to the border and most times do not make it to United States because they are caught and send back south of the border. Most gang groups have resorted to kidnapping wealthy Latin Americans living in the United States side of the border for huge ransoms, demand thousands of dollars in exchange to the kidnapped victims and most of the times these victims are killed. Families are separated due to fractured economy when men live their families for years in search of money for food in the north of the border. Income is not redistributed to the population, the rich gets richer while the poor gets poorer. The people of Latin Americas deserve more from their leaders and their natural resources, which has not happened because of corruptions and drug kingpins who have operated by intimidation, coercion, and fear.

The Four "Pies" facing developing countries

Poverty stems from lack of education, opportunities, and low literacy level. These countries do not put too much emphasis in education as they resort to marrying more than one wife and having too many children. Farming and herding have been their main source of food production and livelihood. Ethnicity is attributed to too many tribes, languages, and dialects. It has also contributed to lack of trust amongst different ethnic groups due to lack of understanding each other's culture and tradition. They have become one country but different people. Instability is created by lack of a stable government by corrupted leaders, who always come to power for the purpose of stealing funds. That ultimately leads to no mandate to build infrastructure, and develop the economy and market for the country. When people's needs are not met, most of the times in developing countries, rebellion begins when the government neglects a certain group of people. When people are deprived of the necessities of life while the other group has it all because of their ethnicity and religious sect, it creates tensions that lead to a "time-bomb" ready to explode. These most times cause conflicts that are attributed to hatred, sabotage, riots, revolution, and deaths. This is common in the developing countries where corruption and venality have played a role due to self-centeredness on the part of the leaders. Leaders therefore resort to intimidation of their citizens and thereby control these countries by coercion.

17 Strategies for implementing economic and market structure in developing countries

(1)A comprehensive education across the country needs to be instituted. This may be in the local dialect and language in order to make it easy for the citizens of that area. Assessment test of individuals' talent and abilities need to be explored, recognized and documented to be sure where these individuals' maximum potentials lie. A program needs to be instituted in order to teach the citizens methods of family planning and birth control. Individuals also need to understand the social and economic benefit of the birth control.

(2)Some individuals may have ability in agricultural work (Crops/livestock/Poultry). Locations with fertile lands need to be located and utilized for crops and livestock, and those areas without fertile land may need to be used based on its comparative advantage, such as poultry, storage of byproducts, and market areas.

(3)Supermarkets are to be constructed in all densely populated locations or urban cities to enable the young men and women find and keep jobs. The stores will consist of three shifts so that students can work and at the same time go to school and do their schoolwork. These markets will be located in the areas where people can afford to shop. A Wal-mart (USA) approach will be most appropriate in these locations. The four utilities of market will have to be considered and instituted as the main reason for the location of the supermarkets.

(4)Consideration of the product that people will want, the price to set for the product, the place that will be appropriate for the supermarkets and their nearness to the people, and how the promotion of the product will be conducted in order to reach the consumers and customers.

(5)The nomadic approach of rearing, transporting, and selling livestock will be changed to using trucks to transport them if it involves long distance in order to avoid spreading of any diseases such as mad cow disease and other diseases that come from livestock feces as they are transported though out the country. Trading locations where buyers and sellers meet, and the days to meet are to be established in both rural and urban areas.

(6)Areas where people still live in poverty, a trade by barter may be established so as to allow the farmers who want to exchange items from their farms to bargain for exchange. This short-run method will continue until the economic development is in place and running.

(7)Foreign investment and property rights need to be considered as part of encouraging investments and savings in order to stimulate the economic growth. This method may help the developing countries to invest less money on capital goods, create more competitive markets, and in turns reduce or eliminate corruption.

(8)Establish local leaders by ethnicity, who will act as representatives or middlemen between the government and their ethnic group. These local leaders may be selected by group they represent and approved by the government to ensure they are working on behalf of the people they represent and not for their own self-interest. In addition, the African experts may be contracted to help establish the boundaries of no corruption.

(9)Individuals have certain religious beliefs and different ways of thinking, and as such need to be segregated according to their sect for the benefit of market structure and economic development. Individuals who understand that certain groups have designated times in which they pray will have no problem doing business with such groups. This may reduce tensions for those who understand the culture of those religious group, and for those, who do not there will be tensions and uneasiness, which is the reason for grouping citizens according to their religious sect.

(10)Government need to institute "watch dog groups" in order to police the programs and to make certain that the programs are in place and running. A 3-year trial needs to be established for any program of economic and market structure that is implemented for these countries. This is enough time to evaluate the program in place in order to ensure its workability. Experts in Africa need to be involved in all phases of implementation in order to combat corruption and promote stability.

(11)Poverty may be reduced if adequate and stable structure for economy and market is established, and the government leaders via the local leaders address all citizen's problems. The essential necessities -- housing, clothing and food - may be the top priorities for these countries in order to reduce the poverty.

(12)Professionals and skilled workers are to be encouraged through issuance of incentives in order to motivate them to stay and reside in these developing countries and help in the development of these countries rather than leaving for developed countries. Mass exodus from these developing countries only harms and delays the development of these countries.

(13)Construction of infrastructure such as roads, buildings, and bridges are important for the economic and market structure of developing countries. Food products and other necessities of life can be transported to their respective destinations as quickly as they are needed when good infrastructure is in place. It may also encourage in foreign investments. Investors will prefer to invest in stable countries to unstable countries.

(14)Construction and installation of adequate running water in developing countries and to all parts of the countries also will help in building stable economic and market structure. It will help in curtailing diseases such as typhoid's and malaria that usually come from unclean water. It will also help the children to focus in education and literacy programs rather than traveling miles upon miles to fetch water from the streams and wells. Some of these children die in taking these water-fetching adventures.

(15)Installation of electrical system may help in the growth of communities. Businesses cannot operate adequately where electricity is lacking. As such, these countries will require electricity in all areas of the countries as a form of economic development and market structure in order to help businesses function and grow, help in the food storage, and eradicate waste of food products that would otherwise be stored safely in cold rooms and refrigeration.

(16)Social Organizations need to be introduced to help the poor get out of poverty, and give them the opportunity to operate their own small businesses. This type of organizations are set up by the government as not-for-profit organizations, and the purpose is to develop the people's business skills and issue them interest free start-ups loans to enable them manage their own businesses, which in turn lead them to poverty free. They will guided them to the type of businesses to open, how to open them, where to open them, and why they should open those kinds of businesses.

(17)The potential goals may be achieved by enforcing the use of this model as a condition of receiving funding or foreign aid. As a way to check and ensure that monies do go to what they are intended for, developing countries pledge to use and implement this model. This model will check and police the development of the projects. The intention of this requirement is not to discriminate against developing countries, but to help the citizens of those countries as they have no way of benefiting from these funding and foreign aid that usually end up abused, misdirected, and misused for other personal and private purposes by the leaders due to corruption and venality.

Who Are the Developing Countries

World Bank defined developing countries as those with low-income economies with per capita incomes of $755 or less. World Bank is an International Organization that categorizes such countries as developing countries and also issues loans to them.
