GMAC Real Estate

This is a sponsored post

What is the most misquoted stat about real estate and the internet?

80% of all home sales START on the net, which inevitably is misquoted into "80% of home sales are because of the net. Obviously, you cannot buy real estate online like a book at Amazon or Ebay. But for the most part at best, the net is only a lead generator.

Drug Rehabilitation

Fighting an addiction is extremely difficult and something typically frowned upon by society. To restate that, society doesn't frown on fighting addiction, but they frown on addiction itself. That stigma makes it difficult for people to come forward that have a problem and need help.

It’s even harder for people to continue with that help if they have a difficult time connecting with the people, facilitators, counselors or medical staff trying to help them.

So if you or someone you know, do drugs more then just recreationally, you need to get help.

Have you recently noticed you or someone closed to you drinking a lot?

It is easier to understand this situation, when someone close to you has been hooked on to drugs. They would do anything to support their habit. They would try and sell anything and basically be a complete mess. For those who know people who have gone through an intensive drug rehabilitation, and come out of it successfully, would understand it much better

People still losing their mental and physical capacities due to these terrible factors, but this kind of behaviours can be changed gradually by choosing a drug rehabilitation center.

The problem is that a lot of people just don’t want to through drug rehabilitation, due to social reasons… Drug addicts fear being discriminated against which obviously it difficult and afraid for them to confess, let alone find the motivation for a change.

The thought that they can recover by themselves is far fetched, mainly because it requires strict discipline. Whatever it may be, it definitely is worth it to just go and talk to someone. Try and locate a place such as a drug rehabilitation network and they could help you get started.

People fighting addiction should be made comfortable and feel accepted so that they can clear their minds of the social issues and focus first on fighting their addiction at a chemical level, and later on issues at a mental level. These things have to be tackled in a balanced way so as to prepare the person later.

They will help you find the best drug rehabilitation program for you and best of all it is free.

So if you know of someone who has a problem, do advise them to visit a drug rehabilitation program or a drug rehabilitation network.

Hotel Reservations

Please note that this is a "paid review"....

It’s funny whenever a holiday is planned, most people just take things into considerations as they are glad to get away as quick as possible and as far as possible. It is only when they get to the place of destination they regret on their not planning their vacation...infact; some of them have the misfortune to arrive at this decision while traveling itself…..

Basically, when we plan for a holiday or a getaway, there are many things we need to plan and take into consideration…..from booking a flight, hotels, renting a car and many other associated hassles that include but are not limited to Hotel Discounts, Hotels, Motels, Resorts and the rest of the thingamajigs !

It is said that a vacation really becomes your home away from home. It’s never as comfortable as the real thing, but a great place to stay always makes your trip definitely more enjoyable. Whatever may be your choices, all you want is a stress free and fun holiday

It is until you experience the speed breaker, you contemplate that you should have planned better. Don’t wait until then…. Just check out Hotel Reservations at http://www.hotelreservations.com/

Hotel Reservations is one of the so called 'one stop centers' for travelers who would like to make online reservation bookings for their next travel vacation worldwide. Even better you can search different types of accommodations be it hotels, hotel discounts, motels or vacation resorts....

You know the price you have to pay for your trip and with over 1000 destinations to choose from, you definitely are not short of choices… That’s about it…. this is becoming more like an advertisement….

In short, there is no harm in trying Hotel Reservations out… you are not going to lose sleep, that’s for sure…

If you are satisfied, pass the information on Hotel Reservations out to our friends..


Now for some useful tips for you while traveling..

Before embarking on a trip, buy a travel book with maps and some useful phrases that you can use with the locals. Carry with you a credit card, identification papers and enough money to get around the city in case you get lost. It is also a good idea to ask your hotel for a business card which you can show to locals when you ask for directions. Also to make travel stress free, make sure that your flights, hotel and motel accommodations are booked and confirmed. This will put you at ease knowing that delays are unlikely and there will be no surprises at the hotel desk. When traveling in Europe, it is cheaper to buy individual rail passes if you are only going to one or two countries, instead of buying a Eurail pass that covers eighteen. They have a better deal and can give you much more for a better price....

Closing line... If you actually look like your passport photo, you aren't well enough to travel... Sir Vivian Fuchs

Bloggerwave - New paid to blog service

Bloggerwave is a new paid to blog service just like PayPerPost and ReviewMe.

Bloggerwave is a paid to post site that is rather new and as expected the opportunities are a little limited [but for a newbie it’s way ahead], and they are growing fast.

Paid to blog services are some 'get rich quick' schemes. The signup process was a breeze and blogs are generally accepted within a hour or so. That is pretty fast when compared to other services that take 2-3 days to get your blog accepted.

Bloggerwave has a dashboard similar to that of PayPerPost and the interface appears to be easy and straightforward to use. It appears to be faster than PayPerPost which takes a lot of time to load....

The minimum payout offered as it appears is USD.1 and there is no limitation to the maximum amount you can earn for your post.

There appear to be only two opportunities available at this moment for my blog, but then they expect only 50 words per post. The site has real growth potential and hope we are not wrong. Although there have been rumours about bad or not paying out it is yet to be confirmed..

Nonetheless, go and check the site out for yourself and reckon that if you are a blogger, you certainly would be pleased with what they have to offer.

This is a paid review.

Who enjoyed sex more....

A man and a woman were having drinks when they got into an argument about who enjoyed sex more.

The man said, "Men obviously enjoy sex more than women. Why do you think we're so obsessed with getting laid?"

"That doesn't prove anything," the woman countered.

"Think about this..... when your ear itches and you put your finger in it and wiggle it around, then pull it out, which feels better: your ear or your finger ?"

Text Link Ads

Text Link Ads Inc, is an online marketing firm based at Cincinnati, Ohio.

Text Link Ads buys and sells online advertisements that are designed to drive targeted traffic and raise link popularity. They service a wide range of clients from Fortune 500 businesses to individual website owners.

Patrick Gavin, the current President of Text Link Ads, founded Text Link Ads in 2003. He previously did pay per click management and SEO for clients of his PatrickGavin.com business

Text Link Ads are unique because they are simple, direct, HTML links.

You can make money by selling Ad Space for Text Link Ads, by setting up a banner or text link on your website. You receive 50% of the sale price for each text link ad sold off your website through their system and any referred traffic that results in a new paid client or new publisher will earn you $25.00.

Alternately, you can use Text Link Ads as static links that can help your natural (organic) search engine rankings, as Text Link Ads have an exhaustive inventory of quality niches that can send targeted traffic to your website. This allows them to provide an outstanding approach to advertising because it affordably allows you to tap into the flow of traffic from large sites drawing your target audience.

Text Link Ads are priced at a flat rate per month per link. You prepay for a 30 day run of your ad. Your ad will never be turned off if it gets too many impressions or clicks. Their pricing algorithm is based on a website’s: traffic, theme, ad position, and link popularity when setting the flat ad rate per month. Hence, you don't have to ever worry about cost per click or CPM rates.

You can also control the links that will appear on your site, because Text Link Ads can be run along any ad system as it is not a contextually served product.

Unfortunately, you must have a dedicated hosting account to publish your Blogger blog, as their script will not work.

If you are considering a text link campaign targeted at increasing backlinks rather than just click-throughs, you may be wise to choose Text Link Ads.

If you already use them, you know this by now. If not, you're missing out on something easy. Give them a try !

Online Dating Services

This is a paid review

Online Dating Services is one of the most lucrative and exciting business and personal opportunities flooding the internet today.

However, this is an area, I was always apprehensive about.

Not because of its money making potential but due to a personal experience.

Call it sour grapes - but the actual reason is that I am rather piqued is by the fact of chatting through a computer / webcam.

With webcams, you could literally interact with one another so well.

Well, then what's my problem ?

Unfortunately, I joined a site some time back, only have to my friend on the other side remove her clothes as she claimed that it was rather hot out there. Now this is a common situation. Eventually, I did switch the machine off, although reluctantly !

Now this is not an example to start dating online, nor deter them from doing so.

You have to come to terms with the fact its enormous potential in the market. As a result dating affiliate programs are also one of the most sought after ones.

There are numerous, dating and personals sites out there and if I guess correctly, most of them are doing quite well

The word online dating and adult dating all have very high search rating, ie., they are one of the most sought after search words. You check this with any top keyword provider, eg., Word Tracker. They provide you a weekly report on the top keywords based on search extraction, and see the number of dating online and adult terminology, you would be taken aback.

Online Dating is certainly one of the only verticals producing serious profits for both large and small online businesses. "The Personals / Dating category held its position as one of the largest paid content category above Business / Investment Content with a 20 to 25 percent increase each year

Studies show that dating revenue shot up as much as 75% last year alone, and is targeted to grow well beyond expectations. Now what more can you say !

The Personals and dating affiliate program revenue potential has a high rate of return. In short, the opportunities available for anyone with a website are enormous. In affiliate jargon, it serves as a revenue fuel for new dating sites, or just as a value added addition to your current site. Large or small, every site or webmaster can profit from partnering with these sites

In plain language, it is exciting, new, and fun content to capture the attention of existing and new members.

Scoopt Words

Recently, I signed up with another one of those new ways of making money from blogs.. that they call Scoopt Words. It is good for those who are busy and never realise that their posts have value, let alone focus on marketing their content.. ScooptWords basically, is a payment facility for bloggers who want to sell content and editors who want to buy it. Scoopt Words acts as a go between bloggers and editors of publications, and will negotiate the sale of your blogging content for you. The concept is pretty simple really, ie., you blog and they sell

You add a ScooptWords button to your blog, ie., first you sign up with them. Once when you have confirmed your membership, login to the member's area and copy the HTML code for a ScooptWords button and paste it into the sidebar of your blog. The Editors, who are interested in your content, click on the ScooptWords button on your blog to buy content.

As soon as an editor has confirmed payment, they can copy, paste and print your words – and of course, pay for them. They negotiate the price on your behalf. The more visible your ScooptWords button, the better your chance of making sales. They bill the publication no sooner a sale is agreed. You get paid via PayPal once when they get paid, usually within 30 days of purchase. Bloggers receive 75% of all sales revenue. At present ScooptWords only make payment to bloggers through PayPal and in three currencies: Pounds Sterling (£), US Dollars ($) and Euros (€).

When you join ScooptWords and list a blog, you appoint them as a commercial agent for your blog until such time as you delist that blog and remove the ScooptWords button from the blog .. For more info.. Click Here.

Virility at its best

A 60-year-old woman goes to her doctor for her annual physical.

He examines her thoroughly and says, 'Well, I've got good news and bad news for you.

The good news is that you are in wonderful shape. I can't find anything at all wrong with you.'

She then asked 'What's the bad news?' The doctor said 'I'm a little surprised, but you're pregnant!'

She flew out of his office, ran home and called her husband at work.

When he answered, she blurted out, 'You stupid ole goat -- you got me pregnant!'

After a long pause, he said 'I'm sorry, but who is that calling?'

Personal Injury Claims

Personal Injury Claims relate to claims rising from injuries that incurred through carelessness, or recklessness, inaction, malpractice, or negligence of another individual, organization or business.

If you feel that you have been harmed, and that it is truly someone else's fault, you can sue for recovery of damages due to your injury.

If you have been injured by use of product, in a car accident or through some other act of negligence, you have suffered a personal injury and should consult with a personal injury lawyer or attorney.

Although the time following an accident cannot only be extremely difficult and confusing, DO NOT settle your claim without consulting a lawyer. Also choose a personal injury lawyer experienced in dealing with insurance companies and with trial experience

There are particular elements that must be addressed before a personal injury claim can be filed. Of course, the particulars vary from place to place, but the basics are as follows:


You must indicate that the person charged in your personal injury actually does bear legal responsibility.

You must prove that the damages you claim reflect your injury or loss

Once you have established the above facts, then you need to figure out which of these basic areas you will base your personal injury claim.


Personal Injury Claims are commonly linked to the below mentioned areas

Negligence.

This is essentially accusing the defendant that your injury was caused because he or she could have prevented it, and did not. For example, if your accident was caused by a defect on a path or pavement, for example an obstacle or pothole you may be able to bring a personal injury compensation claim against those responsible for maintaining the path or pavement. However it is to be noted that although slips and falls can often be the cause of some of the most painful injuries, if you were to some degree responsible for causing your injuries, it is unlikely that you will be able to make a personal injury compensation claim. Public Place Accidents:

Land and / or property owners have an obligation to ensure the safety of all visitors. In most cases insurance cover will be in place to ensure that an injured party will be able to make a personal injury compensation claim in the event of injury occurring.

Intentional Wrong.

Cases for intentional wrong are usually the results of criminal acts against victims. Victims of criminal acts normally do not receive monetary damages from the law. This is called and Intentional Wrong because the perpetrator is believed to have deliberately injured the victim

Product liability - faulty goods

These are cases arising out of a situation where products are defective and cause injury as a result of the defect. If you have been injured as a result of purchasing a standard consumer product, which is defective, then you may be able to claim compensation from the manufacturer/ supplier as well as individuals/ companies through whom the goods may have passed.

Other Accidents:

This category will include cases not listed above. For example sports injury cases, where an injury occurs 'on the field of play' due to the reckless actions of an opponent, or the failure of an official to apply the rules of the game in the way in which they should be applied.

Although most personal injury claims are settled out of court, personal injury lawyers sometimes obtain favorable out of court settlements. The defendants are often willing to pay out more money to avoid the expensive trials, negative publicity, and perhaps to avoid losing the case.

So, your lawyer's experience counts a lot in personal injury claims.

The two nuns and the vampire

Two Irish nuns are driving along when suddenly a vampire lands on the bonnet of the car and is about to attack them.

One of the nuns shouts to the other, "Quick, show him your cross!".

So the other shouts out the window, "Oi you, F*CK OFF!"

Corporate Lessons

This is somthing to be made note for those smooth talkers.....

A turkey was chatting with a bull. "I would love to be able to get to the top of that tree," sighed the turkey, "but I haven't got the energy."

"Well, why don't you nibble on some of my droppings?" replied the bull. "They're packed with nutrients." The turkey pecked at a lump of dung and found that it actually gave him enough strength to reach the first branch of the tree.

The next day, after eating some more dung, he reached the second branch. Finally after a fortnight, there he was proudly perched at the top of the tree.

Soon he was promptly spotted by a farmer, who shot the turkey out of the tree.

Moral of the story:
Bullshit might get you to the top, but it won't keep you there.....
