My oldest son just got an iPod for his birthday and I am so jealous. I have an Mp3 player myself, but his is waaaaaaay cooler. I just heard about an easy way to enter a drawing to win a new iPod.
Development Dimensions International (DDI) is offering an opportunity to win an iPod nano. All you have to do is fill out a brief online survey. To take the survey, click here. At the end of the survey, you will be asked to provide your e-mail address and contact information. DDI is then going to randomly select one winner from the participants who complete the survey.

As I was looking around the internet for ideas for Father’s Day gifts this morning, I found a nice idea. How about a watch for the fathers who are on my gift list? I think that all three dads that I am buying for this year would love some of the great looking
Ebel watches that I found on this site. They are really nice looking! It’s nice to have more than one watch for various situations and occasions. I think a dressy watch would be a great addition to any man’s collection.
As I was shopping their site, I think the different Jewelry watches here are lovely. Especially this one. I think my dad would wear this for sure, but I need to keep looking for my husband and his dad.
I am sure to find something for everyone here…I don’t see how you couldn’t. The selection is huge! TheWatchery is the most discounted luxury watch site online. They offer free watches with almost every purchase! If in the unlikely event you don’t want a free watch, you can pick one from a large selection at 80% off!

It has a name…

Backover accidents are definitely in the public awareness right now with the death of Steven Curtis Chapman’s 5 year old daughter last week. In a community near where we live over the weekend a 13 month old toddler was killed in a church parking lot when her mother accidentally ran her over.
Absolutely heart-wrenching and tragic and this makes every parent draw in a shakey breath and think. It has to…
Then I read this morning that they have given this tragedy a name:
The Good-Bye Syndrome
It’s been given this name because often the reason a child has run out onto the driveway when someone is leaving is to say good-bye one more time.
I also read one mother’s account of what happened when she accidentally ran over her own toddler. It was gut-wrenching. This story had a happy ending and her son survived and completely recovered, I’m relieved to say.
According to the national advocacy organization Kids and Cars, approximately 50 children are backed over by vehicles every week. Forty-eight of those children are treated in emergency rooms, but approximately two die each week. Most of the children are between the ages of 12 months and 24 months old.
In more than 70 percent of these incidents, a parent or close relative is behind the wheel.

Identity theft is nothing to ignore…and thinking that it won’t happen to you is not a realistic or offensive mode. It’s really important to take steps to make sure that it doesn’t happen.
Did you know that for the last seven years identity theft has topped the Federal Trade Commission’s complaint list and accounts for 36 percent of the 674,354 complaints received between January 1 and December 31, 2006?
Life lock is a service that can help protect you. They have a proven six step plan that will protect you from fraud and identity theft. In the event that you are compromised while under Lifelock’s protection, they will do whatever it takes to restore your good name.

Listen In
Only when we find the quietness in our own minds can we begin to hear our inner voice. This is our intuition. We must value the wisdom that we carry at the core of our being. If it’s been a long time since we truly listened, a little practice and patience will be needed.
Sit down, be quiet and listen in at some point today and you might be surprised at what you hear. Do it again tomorrow.
Remember that you are the listener and not the noise.
