There’s a new kid on the block. I invented it, and named it “Neuroliminal”. It’s simple to use and costs a small fraction of the cost of clinical Neurofeedback (AKA EEG and HEG Biofeedback).

Neurofeedback (aka EEG biofeedback) has over the past 40 years been proven to be the most effective “brain training” for virtually allmental or brain problems, including::

ADD/ADHD//Autism
Depression
Insomnia
Epilepsy
Anxiety
Schizophrenia
Addictions
PTSD
Fibromyalgia

When combined with HEG Biofeedback, the results for Autism, Stroke Recovery, and Brain Damage are considerably improved. (Many of the more serious ADD/ADHD cases are closer to the Autism area and misdiagnosed).

Such a biofeedback combination (called Neurofeedback) is now used by many clinicians for all the above. The only real drawback is cost. The EEG and HEG electronic machines are expensive, and clinicians charge from a low of $75 up to $250 per half hour session. Typical number of sessions for ADD/ADHD is 40-60. with an average cost of $4000.

Some Autism cases have required up to 200 sessions for good improvement. The same (or more) holds true for HEG BF added. While this therapy is definitely the best, it is also completely out of the range of mid and low income families. Their only economical choice is Ritalin and other dangerous drugs, as Neurofeedback is not usually covered by insurance.

What does EEG Biofeedback actually do?

In actual practice it’s absurdly simple. Brain waves are obtained by contact sensors, amplified a million or so times, then filtered to separate out various (Read more ...)

It also makes sense to book online. Not only are the fares often lower, but you avoid the booking fee which is now assessed by most of the airlines if you book over the phone with an agent. This fee usually varies from $5 to $15 per transaction. Even basic trips with frequent flyer miles can now be booked online, thus avoiding the booking fee.

The biggest and most well known of the travel websites still account for much of the online airfare business and are all fairly easy to use. You input your departure and destination city, dates of travel and number of passengers. In just a moment, you have your results on the screen in front of you. In some cases, several pages of results appear so be sure to check them carefully; the cheapest of the options is usually the first one in the display.

Although it???s easy to find and book cheap flights online, there are some strategies that can help you get an even lower fare. Flexibility is important to getting the lowest airfare. Not only the time of year and the day of the week you travel, but even the time of day can make a difference. Traveling at inconvenient times such as early morning or overnight can lower the airfare; and in many international markets, midweek travel is cheaper than weekend (Friday, Saturday and Sunday) travel. Combining airlines or flying in and out of two different cities is nearly always more expensive.

When searching for cheap flights online, always indicate (Read more ...)

Once you create an object for an application, you and other programmers can then use that same object in other applications. Reusing objects can greatly cut your development time and increase productivity for yourself and others.

This section explains what you need to know about objects to use C++Builder effectively. If you want to create new components and put them on the C++Builder Component palette, see the Creating custom components section of the Developer’s guide.

These are the primary topics discussed in this section:

What is an object?
Inheriting data and code from a class
Object scope
Assigning values to object variables
Creating nonvisual objects

Before reading this section, you should know how to design a user interface for your application using the C++Builder tools, how a C++Builder project is structured, and how to handle events.

What is an object?
An object is an instance of a class that wraps up data and code all into one bundle. Before OOP, code and data were treated as separate elements.

Think of the work involved to assemble a bicycle if you have all the bicycle parts and a list of instructions for the assembly process. This is analogous to writing a Windows program from scratch without using objects. C++Builder gives you a head start on “building your bicycle” because it already gives you many of the “preassembled bicycle parts”–the C++Builder forms and components.

An object is a specific (Read more ...)

Promote a Show

If you are an entertainer, then you know how important it is to get people to see your shows. Much of your revenue will come from the show itself and whatever products you sell as souvenirs. Therefore, you want to get the word out as much as possible so you can strive for a sold out show. If you have a mailing list, send out postcards to fans who have been to your show before and that live within the area. If your mailing list is small, then you can send postcards out to all of your fans.

Go for Wholesale

If your product is something that can be sold wholesale, then you need to find a way to professionally present your product in a unique fashion that will help it to stand out from other businesses. While a full color product catalog would be anyone???s first choice for displaying their wares, this can be a very expensive project and out of the realm of possibility for an upcoming business.

Postcards, on the other hand, are very inexpensive to produce and can highlight products and prices. You can also use postcards as a way to screen readers to find those who would actually buy from your catalog. Send the postcard to the entire mailing list, but then only send the catalog to those people who actually respond. This way, you will know that your advertising dollars are going to the right people.

The recently released groundbreaking genetic study by Sarah Tishkoff and her team of African, American and European researchers confirms and/or establishes three essential things about Africans, African-Americans and their evolutionary relationships with the rest of the populations of the world.

First of all, there can now be no doubt that approximately 200,000 years ago the human race had its origins in Africa. The true “Adam and Eve” were Black. This fact has been widely accepted in the scientific community for some time. But thanks to the Tishkoff team we can now pinpoint the place of origin to Southern Africa – near the current-day South African-Namibian border. From there ancient Africans migrated northeast until they reached roughly what is current-day Ethiopia.

From Ethiopia – at a point near the middle of the Red Sea – some of these early humans began leaving the African continent to populate the Middle East and Asia and then gradually spread next to Europe and finally to the Americas – probably across a land bridge which no longer exists.

Fundamentally, this confirms that all people on the planet Earth are ultimately of African ancestry – from the darkest-skinned person in the Congo to the lightest-skinned person in Sweden. Or as one of the researchers Muntaser Ibrahim of the department of molecular biology at the University of Khartoum in the Sudan phrased it, “Everybody’s history is part of African history because everybody came out of Africa.”

This conclusion is based on the scientific theory that the highest levels of genetic diversity are to be found in the populations which have been (Read more ...)

Many men view self defense as a hobby or as an extra skill to learn. Women, on the other hand, tend to view self defense as a matter of life and death. The idea that a woman needs to be a self defense expert to defend herself is nonsense. Many of the most basic, and most effective, techniques don’t need any training at all. First, both women and men should learn that their best self defense weapon is their voice. There is a reason why the bad guys in movies attempt to put a hand over the mouth of the person they are trying to kidnap. Try to avoid putting yourself in situations where you are going to be the only person around for miles and remember to scream and yell if you feel that you are in danger.

Next, many women forget that their entire body can be used as a weapon. We know about punching and kicking, but the elbows, the teeth, the knees, and even the shoulder can be just as effective. If an attacker has immobilized your feet, try to make contact with your knees. They are just as effective, and if you can aim for the groin, which can instantly disable an attacker. The same goes for elbows and teeth; however, there (Read more ...)

Of course, acne always pops up at the worst times, although we’re not so sure there ever is a good time to have acne! But for those last-minute, emergency treatments, there are a few things you can try without having to run to the store and shell out for an expensive name-brand product.

Have you ever heard of putting toothpaste on your…pimples? We know this may sound strange to you, but putting toothpaste on them will help them to dry up quicker. Put it on right before you go to bed so that it can work it’s magic as you sleep. It’s one of the best acne treatments found around the house! Of course, you do not want to put it on and go about your day with toothpaste on your face. However, if you would like to apply it during the day, then it’s fine, just stay inside your home. Ever thought about Visine eye drops? This is not going to cure that pimple, but it is going to get rid of the redness within no time.

Have you ever heard of the antibiotic called Neosporin? If you apply a bit to your acne before bedtime and leave it on overnight, it will help to kill off the bacteria that causes the pimples. Although there are tons of other remedies (Read more ...)

Without question 2005 was the year of MySpace. Before Rupert Murdoch’s $580 million social networking venture took the interactive world by storm, it’s difficult to believe that even the most optimistic of the billionaire’s lackeys would have predicted that new acquisition would more than quadruple its reach within a matter of months. With 23.5 billion page views by February, MySpace became the second most trafficked site on the Internet.

Murdoch’s success naturally generated buying interest in anything deemed online social networking. One proposed deal in March 2006, was Viacom’s unsuccessful $750 million bid for Facebook.com, the phenomenon started by wunderkind Mark Zuckerberg. After Facebook.com declined the offer, its founders pegged Facebook.com’s worth at two billion dollars. Perhaps the brilliant sparks from MySpace’s success has blinded Facebook.com to the flipside reality of Friendster’s paradise lost. There’s a real chance Facebook won’t see an offer this generous again.

Facebook.com is essentially an online medium of communication for college students and high schoolers. For its valued reach Zuckerberg and his crew of Harvard dropouts (taking their cue from Bill Gates, no doubt) must be looking for Google-sized compensation, but the two billion dollar figure is arbitrary and (Read more ...)
