The main reason behind it is that “PC security” is a broad term which home users and corporate customers understand quite differently. Basically every owner of a PC or laptop wants its data safe, and don’t want uncontrolled activity inside the box like adware pop-ups. But corporate networks care about intrusions and possible loss of data that cost millions of dollars, so they have too much put at stake. This effect continues until the antispyware cleans the spyware.

Banning children from computers or allowing using it only when parents are supervising the process is not a good solution. Besides producing a negative impact on relations with you child, this also makes it harder for your offspring to compete with other children, as the Internet these days gives certain social and academic advantages. However, the Internet should be filtered, there’s absolutely no doubt. So what is the solution? Data loggers, key loggers are just a few programs which harvest info from your computer. Winclear is the only program created specially to auto remove such spywares. The only other way your account could have been compromised is if you received a phishing email with a link for you to click on to access your account. That is why every computer owner needs winclear.

However, just like a coin, the Internet has two sides. This cyber world can also be used by sexual predators, cheating spouses and unscrupulous employees to promulgate their illegal or malevolent activities. Thus, we ought to do something to help ensure that our children, employees and spouses only make use of the Internet positively. Winclear is the only software which is capable of removing keylogger programs. It is on websites that are not well known and established that cookies may become a concern. Winclear has been the industry leader in fighting keyloggers for the last 8 years.

Are you a writer with lots of talent but no one will give you the time of day let alone a contract? Would you pay a professional publisher to make your book but can’t afford it? Do you need a better tool than your plain old word processor to make your work look more professional and desirable? Do you possess special knowledge that if packaged in a book could make you millions? Well fret not your answer is very available to you now in the form of self publishing software tools!

These tools are electronic publishers that produce professional grade quality at a fraction of the price that it costs a traditional publisher to produce a book. They produce the work in the form of a PDF file which can be sent with an email, saved onto any form of memory storage media, downloaded onto your website, etc. This is hundreds of times more convenient than traditional publishing efforts and again at a very small fraction of the price.

The software is easy to use, designed to be used by a person with a 2nd grade level computer IQ. So, not even close to rocket science. A person can become proficient at using the program and start writing in a matter of hours. Yes, you heard me right — you can have the necessary tools and be writing that book that you have been waiting a long time for in a matter of a few hours. Self publishing is a beautiful thing and I am just getting started.

When I said a fraction of the price of a typical publisher I only meant for one book. But think about it, you would have to continue to pay each time your next book came out which multiplies that fee over and over and over. But you only have to pay for the self publishing software once. It is very reasonably priced, and it is with you, at your beckoned call for life. Now that’s a deal.

The last benefit of self publishing that I am going to talk about (not even close to the last benefit there is) is the true freedom of speech that you retain when you buy this tool. What I am referring to really is the editing process which for those who have already been published know can be a brutal process. Basically anything that you right is at the mercy of the publishing editor when you go the traditional route. But if you publish your own work it stays as you want it which is the way it should be. That’s all for now, but if you want to know more just give me a ring, or fling me an email, or whichever you prefer.

Writing for websites — content, as it is called — is an important task for webmasters. Your site must be current, relevant, and interesting in order to attract and retain visitors. The following are some tips I have successfully employed in order to keep my websites relevant:

1. Write with Passion. There is nothing worse than reading a dull article! If you aren’t interested in what you are writing about, then please don’t! Better yet: Join one of the excellent content producting sites on the internet. Ezinearticles is a leader in this category.

2. Write with Clarity and Brevity. Do your articles make sense? Are you using too many complicated and arcane terms? Remember, the internet is visited by people for whom English is not their primary language. In addition, our attention spans online are very short. Needlessly long, verbose articles will lose your reader’s attention. If you lose your readers, you will lose readership [members]!

3. Write with Purpose. If you are trying to sell a product, then sell it. Stay focused on the subject at hand and do not go off into tangents. If there is something else you want to mention unrelated to the subject, then write another article. Link it to the primary article if they are related. Never confuse or frustrate your readers!

4. Write with Style. Everyone has their own style of writing. Effective content writing engages the reader and piques their interest. Write as if you are having a conversation with your readers. Why do you think blogs are so successful?

Every successful writer knows when to quit… writing that is. Your point[s] have been made and it is now time to come to a conclusion and allow your readers to absorb what was written. Just like I am doing now!

Have ever wished that there were a formula for crafting your expertise into a Top Ten article that will showcase your knowledge, cement your credibility and promote your products and services?

1. Find a problem to solve. Think back to conversations you’ve had with clients, potential clients, colleagues, family, friends and strangers. What are the common problems and challenges that people in your target market face? If you don’t have a target market, get one!

2. Brainstorm many ideas. Get pen to paper or fingers to keyboard and rattle off as many ideas as you can think of that will solve that problem. Don’t judge, filter or edit at this point, simply capture everything that comes to mind. When you think you’re done, write for ten more minutes. Then, walk around for two minutes, come back and write some more.

3. Select the best. Ideally, let some time pass after you’ve brainstormed, so you can look at your list with fresh eyes. Now filter through all of your ideas and choose your favourite ten points.

4. Refine your writing. Be sure that you’re trying to make just one clear point in each item. You can choose to stay conversational and casual with your writing, or you can opt for a more professional style. Either way, read it out loud for a sense of how naturally you’ve put the words together.

5. Be consistent. Make sure each of your items is approximately the same number of lines so it’s laid out nicely on the page. Also, try and assemble your information consistently. If each point has a definition and an explanation, put them in the same order every time.

6. Make your points “pop”. Choose your ten item titles carefully. Many people will only scan your article. If they like what they see in your item titles, they might take the time to read the rest of the article. If they like what they see there, they might take the time to click the link in your author information.

7. Start with a bang. Title your article. Be as clever and creative as you can, but most importantly be clear about what the reader will get by clicking through to read your article. Answer the question “why bother?”

8. Make an offer. At the end of your article, include an author information section (sometimes called a “resource box”) where you offer readers the opportunity to find out more about a specific product or service. Whether it’s to sign-up for your newsletter, call you for a free consultation or visit your website, be sure to spell out exactly what you’d like the reader to do next (and why they should do it).

9. Recruit new eyes. Have another set of eyes look at your article before it’s published. Whether it’s a professional editor or not, they may be able to point out things you wouldn’t have seen, since you’re so “close” to the article.

10. Walk away. While you’re waiting for this feedback, give yourself a rest from the article. File it away and work on other things for a day or two. Don’t let perfectionism get the better of you!

Flow state, that mysterious mental zone where time and the
outside world seem to disappear, is one of the keys to peak
performance. Frankly, your ability to harness the limits of your
intelligence, creativity, education, or talents will be largely
determined by your capacity to remain in flow while under stress.

Those who cannot suffer “stage fright,” “writer’s block” “flop
sweat” and numerous other labels for the same
phenomenon–inability to access the deepest wells of confidence
and performance in the actual arena.

The key to unlocking this particular inner vault is to look at
flow itself, separate from any specific usage or application.

We all experience the “flow” phenomenon. The last moments
before we fall asleep or the first after awakening (also known
as the “hypnogogic state”) have this quality. Ever gotten on the
freeway, lost yourself in thought, and only snapped out of it
when your exit appeared? Flow. Gone running, dancing, or walking
and found time dissolving, so that an hour felt like mere
minutes? Flow. One exceptionally powerful “flow moment” would be
the last few seconds leading up to orgasm, when it feels like
the barriers between you and your lover are melting away.

All of these moments share something in common: they all deal
with the dissolution of the subject-object relationship. The
painter melts into the canvas. The writer disappears into the
book, the reader into the magazine, the lover into the beloved,
the martial artist into the flow of throw and punch. As the song
goes, the dancer enters “the danger zone, where the dancer
becomes the dance.” We stop being aware of “ourselves” and begin
to sense a connection between all the disparate parts of the
activity, as if we are simultaneously stepping back for a wider
view, and sinking inwards to a place of almost impossible
intimacy.

It is a path to genius. One might take the position that the
ability to hold flow under stress is the single greatest key of
all high-performing human beings in any arena of life. What is
talent, separate from the focus required to manifest it?

There are many disciplines that address flow: meditation, yoga,
Tai Chi, prayer, etc. And there are tools that work terrifically
well for familiarizing you with this state: sixty beat per
minute Largo rhythm string music (Vivaldi is great!), hot baths,
incense, massage, etc. Distance running or rhythmic walking,
dance, gardening or cooking (for some people), playing music,
painting, and numerous other activities touch this space. Just
look for the moments when time vanishes.

One core technique, used worldwide in thousands of disciplines,
is breath control. This is key because breathing is the only
physiological process both voluntary and autonomic, and is thus
a key to the unconscious mind. Learning to breathe slowly and
deeply even under stress will de-inhibit the flow response,
allowing you to access your deeper wisdom and creativity even
when a project is due by noon, or the baby is screaming in the
next room.

To take advantage of this fact,

1) Learn to breathe deep in your belly. Lay on your back, and
put a book on your tummy. As you inhale, it should rise. Exhale,
it should fall. Your chest should move as little as possible.

2) Five times a day, at every hour divisible by three (9, 12, 3,
6, 9) concentrate on your breathing for sixty seconds. Learn to
do this while driving, sitting in meetings, standing in
elevators, or walking down the street.

3) Place (or catch) yourself under moderate stress, and practice
this breathing. For instance, in the middle of an exercise
class, while public speaking, in the middle of an argument,
while caught in bad traffic, while experiencing an anxiety
attack. Learn to breathe calmly and deeply in such situations,
and you re-pattern your nervous system’s threat response,
enabling you to calm yourself to enter flow.

There are certainly other methods, but this one, modification of
breathing, has worked for thousands of year and countless
generations of seekers. It will work for you, as well.

This is a much longer “story” entitled, “Our Enchanted Anniversary Evening”, is loosely based on a wedding anniversary celebration I wanted my wife and I to have. We couldn’t because I was in Spain and she was in Colombia at the time. It came out a lengthy TEFL piece employing more than 100 regular verbs spread over three paragraphs. On occasions when I’ve used it with my EFL students in Colombia and Mexico, I broke it up using only one or two paragraphs of the story at a clip. As mentioned before, this is definitely not completely authentic language, but I’ve found that it works.

OUR ENCHANTED ANNIVERSARY EVENING

It happened to be our anniversary when we traveled to Barcelona, so my wife Doris and I planned a special evening out. I purchased a beautiful bouquet of red roses that smelled wonderful and a black pearl necklace that sparkled in the moonlight. I beamed as I presented them to Doris. She pinned a rose to her sequined lapel. Her auburn hair shimmered in the sunset’s bronzed glow. I called a checkered taxi and we passed many highlighted sights before we arrived in front of the restaurant. The waiter seated us as soon as we walked into the neon-signed restaurant. I noticed a secluded table.
(22 verbs in this paragraph)

We positioned ourselves near an opened window and prepared to eat. My wife Doris looked at the selections listed on the menu and decided to have an appetizer. I picked the mushroom soup. A few minutes later the waiter returned. “What would you like to have?”, he asked. Doris ordered some steamed shrimp and broiled trout. I requested a tossed Cesar salad with a grilled steak and a baked potato. While we dined, we chatted and sipped a glass of white wine. Doris wolfed down her food but I savored the meal and chewed my steak slowly. When she finished, she munched on some pretzels. She soon gobbled up all the pretzels in the small bowl placed on the table. Later, we nibbled on a slice of decorated cheesecake as we talked. I wanted some coffee with my dessert. Doris preferred to drink iced tea. After the salted pretzels, Doris needed to drink some water. The waiter finally handed me the bill and I offered him a tip. We tipped him 15% of the totaled charges. He thanked us and smiled as we exited the restaurant.
(40 verbs in this paragraph)

Outside the now closed restaurant, we strolled along the cobble-stoned street, stopped and laughed when we spotted a trained puppy that jumped and played with its owner. We then relaxed and watched the sunset from a padded park bench as the boats in the harbor rocked, pitched and bobbed on the water. Next, we watched a romantic movie at a new cinema that interested us. The aged couple in the movie argued and chased each other as they sailed down an unnamed river that tumbled and surged through rapids which boiled around jagged rocks. Frequently they were trapped and scared. When the colorized movie ended the two discovered that they really loved each other. Finally, at the disco, we danced, swayed to the music and hugged each other often. Whenever I kissed Doris she blushed and giggled. Both of us enjoyed our enchanted evening out together. We hope you liked our story.

If you’re successful and want to try even more of my “stories”, just e-mail me for more. Better yet you (or your TEFL students) could try your hand at writing some of your own. Either way, I’d be happy to hear how these worked for you and your EFL / ESL English learners. So, feel free to let me know how well you made out.

Good Luck
