Anger Management: You Get Angry, I Get Angry, All God's Children Get Angry
The most important factor is what we do with our anger. How we manage our anger makes all the difference.Pop psychology once taught that the way to handle anger was to express it all, to let it all out. That's another way to inflame the anger, as it can keep you stirred up, and then the anger feeds on itself.We have choicesOne choice we have when we are angry is to defuse it.
Anger, and especially what we do with it, is always a choice.No one makes us do anything in response to our anger.How to manage anger and what we do with it begins with understanding from where it comes. It is rarely, if ever, the first emotion we feel.The big 3 emotionsIn order to get angry, you first must feel something else, and it's usually frustration, hurt or fear, or some combination of these three big emotions.So, one powerful way to defuse your anger is to stop and ask yourself which of the big three you are really feeling, and then deal with that.When you effectively deal with the big three, you will have made great strides in managing your anger.Visit http://www.TheArticleGuy.com for more leading edge tips and tools for writing articles that bring you prospects, publicity and profits.

Have A Resume Writer Use Your Own Words
If you've read much of anything at Job Search Guidepost, it should come as no surprise that I recommend getting professional help in your job search.Resume writing is a place where most people need help. It's a specialized skill. You aren't "born" able to write an excellent resume. I don't care how many resumes you've read, or how smart you are, or how good you are at your job. Writing a resume isn't something just anybody can do well.So, hire a professional resume writer and save yourself the pain of not getting interviews. Hearing "No"...or nothing at all...gets old right quick.But when you hire that professional resume writer, keep one thing in mind. It's YOUR resume. Here's what I mean.Suppose your resume has some flowery language in it that contains all sorts of fancy terms that you've never used in your life.Now fast-forward to the interview. The interviewer asks you a question about one of those fancy terms.Do you feel sick yet?You see, in the interview, if you can't talk like your resume talks, you're in trouble. The interviewer will smell a bait-and-switch immediately. You essentially lied to him on your resume.If you hire a professional resume writer, make sure that person will work with you to make your resume speak with your voice. If that person won't, say you're dissatisfied and fire the person. End of story.Let me explain what it means for a professional resume writer to work with you to make your resume talk like you do.Only hire a professional resume writer that lets you create your resume in iterations. That means they write a draft, you review it, you send it back with comments, they change it, you make more comments if you need to, they change it...and so on.The changes you make most likely will be to correct errors of fact (maybe the writer misunderstood something in your work history), or to remove "resume speak". What's that?It's anything you wouldn't feel comfortable being asked about in an interview. Is the language appropriately professional, but something you'd be likely to say in answer to a question? If so, you're fine. If not, change it. If you're not sure what to change it, hey, that's what you're paying your professional writer for!Don't go overboard and damage the marketing power of your resume. Definitely make your experience sound as good as it can, but only as good as it can in your own words.You may not write your own resume, but it has to sound like you COULD have written it.Copyright (c) by Roy MillerRoy Miller created http://www.Job-Search-Guidepost.com.Would you like a "secret weapon" to crush your job search competition?

Video Biographies; Why Hire a Professional?
There are lots of reasons to create a video biography. Some people have a desire to share and pass down stories from one generation to another while others would like to leave behind a family or personal legacy. Whatever your reason is, while creating a video biography can an incredibly enriching and rewarding experience, it can also be a very daunting task.There are many things to consider before you start your project. Here are just a few:The StoryIt is my opinion that if your stories require a lot of details such as time, date, place, clothing worn, and other historically factual data, then just pick one or two stories to tell. Many people bite off more than they can chew and get discouraged when they start to understand the effort truly involved in just putting together their storyline. If you would like to tell several stories that tell of a personâ™s character or lessons learned than it is probably not necessary to go into a considerable amount of detail.Who Will be Involved?Are you working alone on this project or with a group of people such as other family members or friends? The more input you receive from other people the more time it can take to put together your story and content. This is not a bad thing, just something to be aware of.ContentWhat kinds of content do you want to incorporate into your production? Photos, slides, video from different sources such as VHS tape, 8 or 16mm home movies, documents, quotes, personal interviews, narration? The list goes on and on.Youâ™re AudienceWho is the desired audience for your project? Is it close friends or relatives, will your Piece de Résistance be passed down to future generations for their viewing pleasure? Sometimes these questions must be answered before any other considerations because they may determine what kinds of stories and how much detail you will add.The Delivery MethodFor many years VHS tape was the standard for viewing video at home. However DVD is now the medium of choice for many reasons. On screen menus and chapters that allow for much easier navigation, superior audio and video quality, and longevity are just a few reasons DVD has become so very popular. However the internet has also become a viable means of delivering video. If you have a personal website then family and friends around the globe can access your video as soon as it is posted.All of the points above require serious consideration and expertise. A professional video biographer can help you answer these questions and more. They can keep you on task; help you stay focused, craft your project into a meaningful video biography that will be cherished by family and friends now as well as future generations to come.Jay Corrao is the founder and president of Memory Archivers, a video production company based in Apple Valley Minnesota. His company specializes in wedding and event videograpy, video biographies, and consumer digital archiving.http://www.memoryarchivers.com

The Indian Ocean Tsunami and Atlantis Linked
The current disaster in the Indian Ocean that affected Indonesia (Sumatra), Thailand, India, Sri Lanka, and many islands is part of the same geological system that destroyed Atlantis, according to at least one researcher. Most people think of Atlantis as a mythological civilization in the Atlantic Ocean, says Bill Lauritzen, an independent scholar. To the ancient Egyptians, who were the first to start the Atlantis story, the Atlantic Ocean was the entire ocean surrounding Africa. Lauritzen points out that the Pacific Ocean was not named until 1519 by Magellanlong after the Atlantis story. Thus, other areas besides the current Atlantic Ocean should be considered as possibilities for Atlantis. In his new book, "The Atom and the Soul," Lauritzen claims that the Sunda Plain of Indonesia fits Platos Atlantis story quite well. It has elephants, coconuts, a large fertile plain, geological activity, tsunamis, a wide variety of flora and fauna, and canals. All of these elements are mentioned in Platos story. The many other locations suggested for Atlantis, such as Spain, the island of Thera, Antarctica, North Africa, the Bahamas, Great Briton, and Mexico do not contain all these elements. Just read Platos story, and make up your own mind. Its available online, says Lauritzen. One comes away feeling that Atlantis was somewhere in Southeast Asia. Oral tradition could have easily carried the tale of destruction to Egypt through the Red Sea. The Egyptians then told it to the Greeks. Lauritzen also points out several other disasters in the area such as the 1883 eruption of Krakatau that killed 35,000 people in the resulting tsunami, a possible 535 AD eruption of Krakatau, and the 1006 AD eruption of Mount Merapi, which destroyed the Mataram civilization. The whole island of Sumatra is slowing turning like a forearm, with the elbow at Krakatau, he points out. This region of the world is the most geologically active on the planet. Indian Ocean core sediments show that there have been about 10 huge volcanic eruptions in the last 950,000 years. Lauritzen, who is also an adjunct faculty at Los Angeles City College, says that the current tragedy deserves our immediate attention, People should donate money to one of the various relief organizations. His books complete title is: "The Atom and the Soul: A Bold New View of the Origin of Science and Religion." It is currently available for download as an ebook at <a href="http://www.earth360.com" target="_blank">www.earth360.com</a>. For more info: Bill Lauritzen310-305-1987

Studying the International Travel Insurance Scene
Student international travel insurance is affordable. In fact, it's almost always the most affordable of any international travel insurance. In many cases, students aren't the only one who qualify, either. Some student international travel insurance carriers offer the student coverage and rates not only to full time and part time college students but also to their dependents and other family members, as well as visiting faculty and other scholars. The age limit on this student coverage is typically 49 years of age. These low-cost student international travel insurance carriers sometimes provide one hundred percent of the cost of covered events such as illness, injury, evacuation and repatriation. Many student international travel insurance carriers offer choices of coverage, so that you can pick and choose the coverage limits you wish and can afford. One carrier, for example, provides three plans, all of which can be quoted and purchased online. The minimum level, the least costly student international travel insurance policy, provides a $100,000 ceiling for medical coverage, but only $50,000 for a single incident. The deductible for each incident is $150. Were you, your loved one, or anyone's remains require repatriation, the payment with this student international travel insurance would be up to $25,000. Emergency evacuation coverage at this level is $50,000. $10,000 is the ceiling for AD&D (accidental death and dismemberment.) Depending on your age premium for this coverage can be as low as $59. The best coverage, with a price tag of $69, increases your ceilings on many of the coverage events. With this top-notch student international travel insurance you would realize a lifetime ceiling of $250,000, and each event, whether illness or injury, would have its own ceiling of $150,000. Your deductible is lowered to $90 per event, although the limits for repatriation ($50,000), emergency evacuation ($50,000) and accidental death and dismemberment coverage ($10,000) remain the same no matter which student international travel insurance level of coverage you choose. When you purchase your student international travel insurance online you'll be required to supply your destination, travel dates or length of stay, your age and the age of anyone in your travel group and whether you are a student. As a student you'll need to supply your college name and location as well as your program of study. About the Author
