The Federal Trade Commission is considering a new proposed rule, which would require Biz Op's and business opportunities to substantiate earnings claims that they may to potential buyers if the buyer requests them. Such earnings claims proof will hopefully eliminate much of the fraud that goes on in the business opportunity sector.Below is a copy of the Federal Trade Commission's proposed rule on substantiate earnings claims to potential buyers to ask for them;Proposed section 437.5(f): Written substantiation for earnings claims“Proposed section 437.5(f) would prohibit a seller who makes an earnings claim from failing to provide written substantiation to prospective purchasers and to the Commission upon request. Rather than mandating that business opportunity sellers include documentation for earnings claims – which could be voluminous – in the earnings claim statement itself, section 437.5(f) would reduce compliance costs by requiring only that such materials be provided to potential purchasers and to the Commission upon request. Purchasers could then review the documentation if they so choose.”Most business opportunity practitioners are indeed honest, however many simply make up huge numbers that the buyer may potentially make if they buy the business opportunity. For instance; “Make $10,000 per month stuffing envelopes part-time in your own home, while working in your underwear and watching TV.” You may think this sounds funny and indeed it is, however now the business opportunity practitioners would have to come up with names and proof that people were actually making that kind of money after they had bought their business opportunity. Consider this in 2006.
Omega-3 fatty acids may work best. Sources of Omega-3 are fish, flax seed oil, and some greens. Of these three, fish oils may work best and are worth trying -- not because they work so well -- but because they have few side effects. But there's no hard evidence that they work at all.

QUESTION: M
While much of the wedding planning process focuses on the reception, don't forget that your ceremony is the reason behind the big party! Before the big day, you will meet with your officiant or potential officiants to discuss the wedding ceremony and any pre-ceremony requirements. Discover whether the officiant is open to your ideas, and ultimately decide if the three of you want to work together. Here are the questions you must ask:• Are there any pre-wedding requirements, such as counseling?• What is the ceremony fee? Is the fee a donation?• Is the officiant open to any personal ideas for ceremony? For instance, is he or she open to non-secular vows, readings or songs?• Will the officiant give a sermon or a speech?• Will you have input in the ceremony, and will you be allowed to review the sermon or speech beforehand?• If you don't already have a ceremony site, can the officiant make any recommendations?• If the officiant is the site officiant, are there any ceremony site restrictions such as flash photography, videography, music, dress code, d?cor, tossing items?• What items does the ceremony site/officiant provide, and what must you bring yourself? (pews, isle runners, microphone, etc.)• What will the officiant wear?• What time will he/she be available for the rehearsal?• Should you bring your marriage license to the ceremony, or will you sign it beforehand?Important Things to ConsiderDemeanor – His or her personal demeanor should reflect the mood you envision for your wedding. Some ceremony officiants may be light and jovial — often interjecting sermons or speeches with bits of humor, while some have a more formal and solemn style.If you don't already have a relationship with this person —consider whether you like his/her style and whether you would enjoy working with this person. Remember — your ceremony officiant performs the most important service at the wedding. He or she is the one who will officially pronounce you man and wife, which is the sole reason for the big event in the first place (don't lose sight of this!). You should feel comfortable inviting this person to share such an intimate moment in
ANSWER: Sorry dad. You're not going to like my advice, but here goes:
You will not be able to stop her from smoking. Pick your battles carefully - and this is not a battle you should fight. In fact, the more you worry about it or lecture her, the more she will smoke! But you can stop her from smoking on YOUR property. Here's what you can say to your daughter:
"I can't keep you from damaging your health by smoking. But it's your health - not mine! However, I don't want you smoking in my house or anywhere on my property. If you choose to smoke on my property, you'll choose the consequence, which is grounding for 3 days without privileges (e.g., use of phone, T.V., computer, etc.)."
If your daughter smokes on the property, follow through with the consequence. If YOU smoke, keep your cigarettes with you at all times.

QUESTION: What if you haven't been the greatest role model for your kid in the past and are just starting out to become one? What can I do to help my kid not follow in my footsteps??!
ANSWER: Simply think about what you say and how you act in front of your child. Your child learns social skills and how to deal with stress by listening to and watching you.
Do not take part in illegal, unhealthy, or dangerous practices related to alcohol, tobacco, or illegal drugs or he may believe that, no matter what you say, these practices are OK.
Perhaps most importantly, know that you are a good mother in spite of some bad choices you may have made in the past. The past is NOT the present, and no one should be held hostage by their past.

QUESTION: My son is ADHD, but I don't like the idea of him being on strong medication for it. Is there any natural way to treat ADHD?
ANSWER: There are many natural treatments for ADHD, but few of them have ever been compared to a placebo, so it is hard to know if they really work.
The only natural treatments worth considering for ADHD are those based on increasing certain fatty acids in the brain. There are abnormalities in these fatty acids in the brains of people who have ADHD.
Omega-3 fatty acids may work best. Sources of Omega-3 are fish, flax seed oil, and some greens. Of these three, fish oils may work best and are worth trying -- not because they work so well -- but because they have few side effects. But there's no hard evidence that they work at all.

QUESTION: M
Disability refers to the condition of physical or mental impairment that restricts or limits the ability to perform activities in a normal manner using traditional methods. Disability can either be congenital or due to some form of illness or injury. Disability can either be a temporary, correctable condition or permanent, unchangeable condition.Physical disabilities include mobility impairment such as paralysis, cerebral palsy, and muscular dystrophy; visual impairment such as low vision, blindness, and color blindness; and hearing impairment. Diseases including Diabetes, Cancer, and AIDS and incapacitation due to injuries such as spinal cord injury are also categorized as physical disabilities. Conditions such as a learning disability, depression, schizophrenia, a phobia, and an anxiety disorder are categorized as mental disabilities. Developmental disabilities or cognitive impairments include conditions such as Autism, Dyslexia, and Down Syndrome.In the United States, support or services for people with disabilities provided through legislation were very limited. Things started to change for the better in the 1970s due to the efforts of people with disabilities for legal protection at par with the rest of the population. Legislations and court rulings marked the establishment of civil rights for people with disabilities. Some of the landmark disability rights legislations such as Federal Rehabilitation Act were passed during the 1970s and 1980s.The Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 is considered a milestone in the movement for equal rights for people with disabilities. This legislation prohibits discrimination against people with mental or physical impairments in employment, telecom, transport, and public amenities. Supreme Court rulings in the late 1990s have defined the conditions considered a disability under the Americans with Disability Act. People infected with HIV are considered disabled, whereas people with correctable disabilities such as vision problems are no longer under the purview of protection offered by Americans with Disability Act.The disability rights movement has come a long way by achieving significant victories in terms of legislation and government support for people

QUESTION: M
According to a recent survey, 77% of homebuyers are using the internet for searching a new house. Needless to say, the Internet has changed the way realtors market and sell their real estates. But still, most realtors are not generating any new business from the internet .Most real estate agents are aware of the importance of online real estate advertising. The vast majority of them purchases a website thinking they will instantly obtain a global reach. Big mistake! You may spend tons of money on your website but it worth nothing if nobody can find it.So how do you drive a steady flow of targeted potential clients to your real estate website? The answer is clear: Search Engine Optimization. Investing in a true SEO campaign will provide your real estate website the traffic it deserves and increase your sales.Last month I was working with a client selling condos in the Washington state. The first thing he told me: ''I have a great website listed in all major search engines but my website traffic is close to zero and nobody is calling or e-mailing me for infos'' After reviewing his website the problem was obvious.The title and description tags were targeting the wrong keywords. Target the wrong keywords and your real estate website is doomed! So I started a keywords research for my client and wrote some new keywords rich content to put on the main page in order to increase the relevancy.2 weeks later his website is now showing in the top 3 results for his main targeted keywords. As you see the key is to target the right audience by creating keywords rich title and description tags that target your area and customers.Most real estate agents are making that mistake. Remember that search engine optimization is the first and most important step in promoting your real estate website.

QUESTION: M
Having problems with one's vision can be a very daunting and depressing situation. Those who have perfect vision can see the wonderful things that surround them right away, while those who are visually impaired need to ransack their closets for either their contacts or their glasses. Indeed, there is no sense of wonder or surprise upon waking up as you will only see a blur of various figures and colors.It is hard for those visually unlucky to continue activities of daily living without their vision stimulators. Not wearing glasses is not optional. If they want to be of substance to the world, they have to wear them.Thus, activities for those who have poor visions are limited.For instance, you can't enjoy swimming with your contacts on, that is, if you do not wear graded goggles, which, by the way, is in the top ten silliest things to wear. Watching a foreign film without glasses is extremely not enjoyable, but of course you would understand it if you know the language and can understand the movie without racking your brain trying to read the subtitles. It is also embarrassing when you try to catch someone's attention from afar because you could be wrong of the person's identity.LASIK surgery has the answer to visual problems plastered over it. For many years, we had to force ourselves to wear either contact lenses or reading glasses out of a loss of a better option—but that's simply treating the symptom, not the problem itself. But with the introduction of LASIK treatments and the continuing efforts of eye experts like the Nashville Selkin Laser Center's Dr. Robert Selkin, no longer will you have to keep worrying about contact lenses popping out during odd moments.So to put it simply, LASIK is actually the solution to your visual acuity dillemmas. Skipping your tasks is not even necessary since the process will only take a couple of minutes at most. In approximately one to two hours after the surgery, you will already be able to perform your normal tasks. For the incision to completely heal, one must wait for a year. Perfect vision can be immediately enjoyed right after stepping out of the doc's office.The cost of LASIK can definitely put off clients at first, but after weighing

QUESTION: My 12-year-old ODD daughter is at a school where groups of kids get dropped off at the mall to go to the movies, or just roam around, and then picked up by a parent a few hours later.
My husband does not want her to be able to go and do this with friends, and I am unsure as to whether to let her do this. It seems that many parents are letting their kids do this, and in this day and age I'm not sure how safe/unsafe this is.
My daughter feels very frustrated and "micromanaged" by her father and I, and is feeling that our over protectiveness is prohibiting her from having a normal social life with her friends. What do you think?
ANSWER: “Self-reliance” is key. So, whenever you and/or your husband are undecided about what to do, you should ask yourself the question: “Will the decision I’m about to make promote or inhibit the development of self-reliance.” If your decision will promote self-reliance, then go ahead with the decision. If not, then don’t.
Thus, I believe you will be promoting self-reliance in your daughter by allowing her to develop social skills in the form of going with peers to the Mall. This also provides a testing ground for her to make good or bad choices (more self-reliance promotion).
“Over-protectiveness” is another form of “over-indulgence.” And over-indulgence is the cancer that contributes to emotional and behavioral problems in our kids – the #1 contributor!
The four methods of over-indulgence are:
1. Giving the child too much stuff (materialism)
2. Giving the child too much freedom (activity-ism)
3. Over-nurturing (i.e., parent provides too much assistance or protection)
4. Soft structure (e.g., lax rules, no chores, no family activities)
In the spirit of fostering the development of self-reliance, your daughter should EARN her trips to the Mall. To allow her to go without “earning” her trip is synonymous with giving her a free “hand-out” of freedom. Free handouts create (a) disrespect, (b) resentment, (c) a sense of entitlement, (d) dependency, and (e) a strong desire for more and more free handouts.
For example, she might be able to do a few chores
