If you are traveling and vacationing in Northern Arizona (visiting the Grand Canyon and Sedona), be sure to spend a day at the Out of Africa Wildlife Park in Camp Verde, just south of the Sedona area. The park is a great way for you to see the most beautiful tigers, lions, and giraffes in a totally natural environment – where they have access to to freely roam large areas of this spectacular wildlife preserve. As part of the admission, you can board a jeep-type vehicle and go on a 45-minute “Serengeti Safari” with expert park guides narrating the tour. There is also an hour-long tram or trolley tour of the preserve where you will have access to unobstructed photo platforms that provide excellent photo opportunities of lions, tigers, wolves, hyena and other predators that roam in their large natural habitats.

What I love about the park is the overall cleanliness of the park and the meticulous and humane care that is given to the animals – and that is all due to the passionate (and compassionate) owners, Dean & Prayeri Harrison. Park visitors can come up and touch the snakes! The park has two primary tours, which are a wildlife photographer’s dream come true: 
 
The Wildlife Preserve is an educational hour-long tram or trolley tour, which circles the large-habitat homes of lions, tigers, wolves, hyena, bears, mountain lions and other predators.  Unobstructed photo decks are the perfect staging for an unforgettable photograph of the park’s majestic animals.  The VIP tour also includes lunch and hands-on animal encounters. An Arizona vacation is perfect with a stop at the Out of Africa Wildlife Park

State budget cuts are not only affecting jobs, but also services to citizens, including children with hearing loss. Many families cannot afford to pay for the hearing aids their children need to function. The family of one eighteen month old is one of them. Eighteen month old Ashton Benberg has hearing loss and needs hearing aids.

The families audiologist temporarily loaned the young man a hearing aid. Family members said it instantly changed his world. “Instantly his face lit up.”

But the Benbergs say they cannot afford the $4,000 bill for hearing aid equipment. Until recent budget cuts, a $190,000 state funded program helped families like the Benbergs in need.

Department of Human Rights administrator Kathryn Reece said 3,000 children from grades K-12 are hard of hearing and need some type of hearing assistance like a hearing aid. The Child and Family Policy Center is pushing to have hearing aids covered by insurance.

Some 14 states have forced insurance companies to cover audiological services. Bills have been introduced in local legislatures to do the same, but many go unpassed. Until hearing aids are considered essential and can be covered by insurance companies nation wide, many children like Ashton and his parents may be forced to do without a life changing device.

Meantime, Ashton is learning sign language, but his mother said the cost of a hearing aid is minimal to what it will cost in the future if these children cannot acquire language skills.

Some Google Adsense publishers have let this simple form of making money online take over their lives. 100’s of hours are spent by these people Split test Adsense, changing and manipulating, all in the hope of making enough money to tell the boss “I’m leaving”.

54% of all Google Adsense publishers admit addiction to click income. A recent online study conducted by a small group of Google Publishers found that 54% of all Adsense publishers where addicted to the income potential of Googles Pay Per Click system.

Some Google Adsense Publishers Need Therapy
It was also found that some publishers were so addicted they where checking their Adsense statistics up to 50 times per day.

Google Adsense is a system where individuals who own content rich website’s can earn money by placing small targeted ads within the content of their website.

The ads can be customised to fit within the scheme of the website and some successful publishers can earn in excess of $200,000 per month.

One publisher stated that her addiction started the day she placed the Adsense code into her html code. “I was introduced to Adsense by my boyfriend, who makes around a $1000 a month”. She went on to say that she doesn’t blame Google for her addiction, but the fever in which forums and blogs promote the fact that anyone can become rich with this scheme inspired her to keep adding pages and checking her stats.

Kate, did state that she was earning a reasonable amount of money from Google Adsense, but told us she also spent a considerable amount of money on scripts, ebooks and promises of gaining all you would ever want to know about Adsense, from forum gurus claiming they had made their fortunes and where willing to share their secrets if you deposited $97 into their PayPal account.

Rags to Riches in 51 Days
Another publisher I spoke to told me his addiction had made him a rich man in 51 days. “I was browsing the net on October the 15th last year and came across a website that had a photo of a guy holding a Google cheque for nearly $200,000 dollars. Under the picture it stated that this was just a 1 month pay check from Google. Lights and bells went off in my head as I thought, Man, this is what I have been looking for”.

David, had been dabbling in online money making schemes for about 6 years and to date had not been very successful. But he did have 3 website’s which had 1000’s of visitors to them and after reading all he could on the subject, David placed 2 small Adsense ads on each page of his 1000 page website. “I didn’t sleep that night. I was so excited, I checked my stats every 10 minutes all night” he said. Just when he was about to give up for the night, David did his final stats check. “It was 5.50am exactly and I nearly fell off my chair. 1000 impressions, 98 clicks and a total of $18 income. I couldn’t sleep that day as I checked my stats every 15 minutes and watched the income rose to over $58 for the day. I was addicted to this thing, this scheme was going to make me rich and I wasn’t going to miss a minute of it” David said.

David had gone from $32 in his Bank account to over $6,700 in just 51 days. He had checked his stats on average 60 times per day and had spent more than 612 hours during that 51 days optimising his sites and adding content. David also admitted just like Kate that he had spent quite a bit of his profits on “how to” books, but stated that it was money very well spent.

“I am addicted to Google Adsense” Kate told me, ” but what better addiction could you have than earning money, while doing something you love”.

JENNY CRAIG VS NUTRISYSTEM is a frequently requested review and as such our content is simple and straight to the point, as usual. These are two very similar diet plans because both offer prepared meals and this approach makes them very attractive to dieters. Here are my comments:

* PRICE: Whilst the Jenny Craig Diet Plan is slightly more expensive there really is not much in it to make a difference. They do however charge a one off joining fee – NutriSystem do not.
* WEIGHT LOSS: With both you are more or less going to lose 1-2 lbs every week after the initial weight loss.
* TASTE: It used to be that NutriSystem meals were a little bland but they have addressed that now especially with their frozen offerings so both are on a par.
* DELIVERY: NutriSystem deliver their meals, including the frozen ones, direct to your door whereas with Jenny Craig you have to collect their meals from one of their centers. This is a pain in the – you know what.
* CONTRACT: Jenny Craig require you to sign a contract committing yourself for a year – no such requirement with NutriSystem – you can leave any time you want.
* SUPPORT: Both offer support, Jenny Craig from their centers and NutriSystem online.

It may not seem a huge list but based on the above we have no hesitation in recommending the NutriSystem Diet Plan. You can read my full Nutrisystem Review – CLICK HERE.

My name is Edna Wharry and I hope my Review helps you make up your mind – Jenny Craig or the NutriSystem Plan.

There are so many different landscape lighting options available. There are spot lights (focus on small areas), flood lights (light up wide areas), entrance lights (driveways and sidewalks), up lights and down lights (statues, trees, trellis), well lights (walls and trees) and many more.

First, start with a plan on paper. Draw out your property including all the landscaping features. Mark on the plan where you want to install the lights.

Here is a tip for testing your lighting ideas with a flashlight. Get a friend or family member (kids work great) to highlight the area you want illuminated. Then go walk to the various viewpoints on your property to get an idea if you like the lighting style.

Now go back to your plan and make any changes that you wish based on your testing.

There are 3 main lighting options available; solar, low or high voltage lighting. High voltage requires an electrician and is not recommended for a do it yourself project.

Solar is great for low level light requirements. But if you need more consistent lighting, then consider installing a low voltage lighting kit. You can often find a great selection of powered landscape lighting kits at your local hard ware or home builder center. But remember, always check your local city codes and get a professional to identify any buried electrical, water or sewer lines on your property. Being cautious is the most important prevention tool you can use.

Solar landscaping lights are easy to install. You just assemble them (if required) and install them where you want to have the light. Keep in mind that the more light they receive during the day, the better they will perform.

Low voltage kits are easy to install as well but require a little more planning. The kits usually ship with a control box that plugs into an external power outlet. Then you connect all the light fixtures to the control box with an electrical cable. You assemble and install the lights, then connect the wire to the control box and plug it in. The last step is to setup the timer on the control box and you are done.

Earth News: Climate change and the environment is top of the global agenda today as the need to cut down on carbon emissions becomes increasingly apparent. As world leaders negotiate to come up with a plan to halt climate change and cut down on emissions, we can also play our part.

Reducing the amount of energy we use in our home, in our workplace and in our cars can have a significant affect on emissions. Not only that, it can save you money too. If everyone makes an effort in their lives, it can make a huge difference on a global scale. Here is some advice on how you can cut down on your energy usage.

In the home

* Switch to energy-saving light bulbs. They cost slightly more, but save up to ten times their price over their lifetime.
* When you are boiling water, or heating anything, only boil the amount you need. You do not need a kettle full of boiling water for one cup of tea.
* Switch off appliances when you are not using them to save money and energy. TVs, videos, stereos and computers left on standby can use use a lot of energy.
* Recycle everything that you can. We throw away our own weight in rubbish every month, but bottles, cans, paper, card, plastic and aluminium can all be reused or recycled which saves energy. For example, it takes the same amount of energy to make 20 cans from recycled material as it takes to make one can from scratch. Recycling will also save you money on refuse charges.
* If you live in a sunny area you could potentially meet all your energy means using solar panels.
* Turning down your thermostat by just three degrees will save you 10 per cent in energy costs. Also, make sure that your home is well insulated so that it keeps the heat in.
* When washing clothes and dishes make sure the appliances are full. Also, try using lukewarm water.
* Keep the lid on pots and pans when you are cooking.

In the office

* Where at all possible, store all documents in digital format on your computer or another storage device. If you must print something, use both sides of the page.
* There is no need to fly half way around the world for a meeting. Online audio and video conferencing has effectively cut out the need for face to face meetings and conferences. The amount of energy that can potentially be saved here is huge.
* Turn your computer off completely or at least put it to sleep when you are not using it. Computers still use a lot of energy when they are on screensaver mode.

In the car

* For shorter journeys, leave the car at home and use a bike instead. Bikes are a healthy, quick and enjoyable way to get around, and a great way to avoid congestion if you live in a big city.
* Experiment with car pooling to get to and from work. It will save you money and could get you to work faster.
* Join the hybrid revolution. Do you really need that gas guzzling SUV? Buy a hybrid and use a fraction of the energy for your journeys.
* Public transport is far more energy efficient than driving. Also, remember that air travel is a major polluter so use ground transport wherever possible.

In the shops

* Do not accept plastic bags from shops. Always bring your own reusable bags.
* Try to buy organic food that is grown locally. Organic food is farmed less intensively and usually requires less energy to produce. In addition, the fact that it is grown locally means a reduction in transport costs.
* Try to eat less meat. Livestock are a major source of greenhouse gases.

Water

While water isn’t strictly energy, it is a finite resource that we need to preserve and take care of. Here are some tips on how to cut down on your water usage:

* Always use the shower instead of the bath.
* Never leave the tap running while brushing your teeth.
* Only use the dishwasher or washing machine with a full load.
* Try to install a system to use your waste water run-off to keep your garden watered. This will also encourage you to use non-harmful soaps and washing powders.
* Water your garden early in the morning or just before sunset. This allows the water to be absorbed into the ground instead of evaporating in the hot sun if you water during the day.
* Water butts or large water containers are a good idea for the garden. Situate them under the edges of your roof so they receive run-off when it rains.

These are just a few of the simple, yet effective, ways that you can help cut down on energy usage and reduce your carbon footprint. Even if we all follow just a few of these steps it will make a big difference and save us money as well.
