Can You Really Make Money Online With A Free Home Business Opportunity?
Can You Really Make Money Online With A Free Home Business Opportunity?
The constantly rising gas prices, inflation, and uncertainty in the job market worldwide is causing people to look for additional methods of generating an income and some are even finding alternative ways of making money. Many are turning to the internet in the hope of finding the ideal home business opportunity that will make them the money they need. Building an online home business can be a challenging undertaking and can cost you a lot of money if you do not choose and plan carefully.
The word “free” is so overused on the internet today, that people have become cautious and wonder whether free opportunities are in indeed free, and whether using a free home business opportunity along with free marketing techniques can actually make you money.
Is there really such a thing as a “free” Starscapes business opportunity opportunity? The answer is yes! An example of a free opportunity is an affiliate program. All you have to do when setting up an affiliate marketing business is sign up with an affiliate merchant and tell others about their product. If any of your referrals buy the product, you get a commission.
The next step is to promote the affiliate website. Many companies actually set up your website for you and yes, they do it for free. Why? Because you are going to help them grow their business. They will not pay you unless you sell one of their products so it’s a win-win situation - They have nothing to lose, you have nothing to pay and everything to gain.
However, while all this sounds wonderful, you will soon discover that getting traffic to your affiliate website can be a challenge which will require determination, planning, and hard work. To begin getting visitors to your affiliate website, you can use free traffic generating techniques such as forum posting, blogging, classified advertising and article marketing.
The problem with the free site you receive from the affiliate merchant, is that the same website will also be available to all the other affiliates selling for that merchant. It means you will be facing a lot of competition.
Added to this, when you send visitors to the affiliate merchant’s site, you’re no longer are in control of what your visitors do. If they do not buy, then you do not make money and these days, people rarely buy on their first visit to a website.
To overcome this challenge, you may need to spend a little money. The amount of money I am talking about is less than a decent dinner for two. This will enable you to build your own website and host it. Once you have your own website, you can create your own content and pre-sell to your visitors before sending them to the affiliate merchant’s product.
Also, when you have your own website you can set up what is known as a squeeze page where you offer your visitors a free report on a given topic, or a detailed review or maybe a free e-book, in exchange for them joining your opt-in mailing list.
Some affiliate programs will provide you with a brandable e-book that will place your link throughout the publication. You can offer this e-book to those who join your list and every time they click on a link from the book, they will be clicking on your embedded affiliate link.
The truth is, that to get quicker results you may want to spend a little money but it is pennies compared to starting a conventional business. However, if you are willing to wait a little while for the results, you will find that you really can make money using a free home business Opportunity… It does work!

Gender Bias in Schools Revisited
Gender Bias in Schools Revisited
Fifteen years ago, at the height of the focus on the alleged gender bias against girls in our educational system, I wrote an article for a professional newsletter that argued it was actually the other way around. Boys were at least equally disadvantaged in the classroom, if not more so. The key difference was outside the classroom where girls grew up in a society that didn’t value their achievements and business opportunity in the marketplace and on the athletic field. I took some flack for my point of view back then. Now, in 2008, it’s still a critical and misunderstood issue.
It is essential to put this issue of how boys perform in school into a historical perspective. Since the first public school opened in Boston in 1635 until the middle of the 20th century, the abundance of boys who did not fit the necessary mix of academic intelligence (learning best in a language-based environment) and who lacked a “successful-student-personality” (calm, organized, eager to please) were not a problem. Those boys generally left school by the eighth grade to go to work on their father’s farm, learn his trade/ business, or, as unions became dominant, took on apprentice roles and went on to good jobs. After WWII, everything began to change. Fathers began commuting to work, farms disappeared, unions gradually diminished, and all boys were now expected to be successful students.
Since this didn’t work for many boys, terms like “minimally brain damaged” and “hyperkinetic” became the labels to explain their failures (currently replaced by a multitude of labels such as Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder, Sensory Integration Disorder, Non-Verbal Learning Disabilities, Dyslexia, and Spectrum Disorders). For decades, many of these boys still managed to get through the system and find reasonable jobs waiting for them. But now they face the information revolution, where jobs are increasingly language-based. This has caused schools and parents to put even more pressure on all boys to succeed in school. Thus, the marked increase in concern about the many boys who still don’t fit our school system, which has never adapted its model to accommodate the varied learning styles not only associated with gender but across all children.
Many of you may be familiar with some of the many statistics that back up these concerns. It begins early. In elementary school boys are twice as likely to be identified with learning disabilities, emotional and behavioral problems, and to end up in special education. Young boys are 60% more likely to repeat a grade. By middle school, it’s not just the appearance of test score gaps that concern us. It’s data that shows boys skip school more often, get injured in fights much more often (though I do realize that girls hurt other girls in non-physical ways that can be even more devastating) and suicide rates, though small, are three times as likely in boys.
Then we get to high school. Boys are a third more likely to drop out and to be doing heavy drugs. Test scores and participation in advanced classes now significantly favor girls. These gaps are even more pronounced in our urban schools but be clear, they are not limited to poor, inner city children. Teenage boys dominate special classes and have significantly higher suicide rates. (The girls show their distress through high rates of eating disorders and rising rates of smoking.)
The pattern continues beyond high school. 58% of undergraduate students are now female and the higher ratio of women continues right on into graduate school. It won’t take more than another generation before boys and men can’t find a male to be their primary care physician.
Of course some will argue this matters little since women allegedly still have their glass ceiling and there is still a lack of equal pay for equal jobs. But within a decade or two, the shortage of reasonably educated men will change this. Some women note that females have suffered for centuries. They suggest males in our society will need to face up to this “new” problem and do something about it just the way women did in the latter part of the 20th century.
Well, part of the problem was, and still is, that both genders face issues and to remain a healthy productive society, a better understanding of boys and girls and the similarities and differences in how they develop needs to be better understood and addressed. From where I have been watching for the past forty years or so, our educational system is harmful to most children regardless of gender. So it is not my intention to slight the needs of girls in our schools or women in the work world by pausing to focus on some very significant issues facing males in our schools as well as society in general.
It has been well documented that boys develop more slowly in certain aspects of their neurology. In general, (there are always exceptions to stereotypes) young girls are more verbal, more able to sit still, and learn to read more quickly. This substantially increases their likelihood of immediate success in a school system that places early emphasis on all these skills. Given the heightened anxiety of today’s parents about their children’s early academic success determining life success, preschools have become increasingly skills oriented, starting the frustration for boys at even earlier ages. Meanwhile, as teachers are increasingly forced to teach to statewide tests, they lose the flexibility to teach in more creative ways that would benefit both genders. But it especially increases the challenges boys have to face.
While more research is needed and new teaching strategies need to evolve, I think there are a couple of additional factors that play a key role in making the life of boys particularly disadvantaged at this time in our society. Boys lack male role models for academic learning and developing a strong, positive sense of their masculinity. In addition, young boys have dramatically lost their home business opportunity to be physically active and to use social play as a way to explore and understand the world they live in.
Mothers, and other women, are the primary caretakers of young children. Boys are then handed off to female teachers for the next several years. Rarely do boys have the opportunity to observe and model their academic behavior after a same sex adult. But it also works the other way. Female teachers have less tolerance for a bit of chaos and roughhousing. I recall from my early days as a psychologist when I was in charge of a number of inner city preschools. When I would visit the classes, it would turn in to king of the hill battles and kids climbing all over me. My female teachers understood the importance of this and didn’t mind it one bit.
But, over the years, when I have consulted with preschools and elementary schools, teachers are more concerned with the possibility of someone getting hurt (some of which reflects our increasing litigious society) and the sense of things getting out of control than recognizing the importance of this high energy activity for boys (and many girls as well). I have watched too many female teachers reprimanding boys for behavior that should be considered normal, slightly aggressive, overactive male behavior. It should be built in to the program, not frowned upon. Meanwhile, recess and phys ed classes are being decreased so teachers have more time to raise those classroom test scores, making it even worse for boys. It doesn’t do anything for the epidemic of obesity either!
Boys (and many girls) need to be allowed to run free, ride their bikes around town, play for hours outside, wander into the woods and climb trees, bring home turtles, frogs, and bugs. Frightened parents, even in more advantaged communities, allow fear of the unlikely (stranger abduction, pedophiles) to keep boys inside. Girls, too. Now parents are paying the price of children who explore the world via the internet and are realizing this may be more risky than letting them actually leave the house!
Meanwhile, we need more male teachers. We need more men coming in to visit the elementary classrooms. We also need more Big Brothers. The problem is not just the lack of men in the school life of our boys. Between high rates of divorce and of young, poor fathers abandoning their children, it is estimated that an astonishing 40% of our boys are growing up without a father in their lives. Being a minority male in our inner cities means you are more likely to end up in jail or dead by 21 than graduating high school, no less going to college.
We need to offer boys and girls an education that addresses the total child, not just the academic skill part. We need to design middle schools and high schools that offer many pathways to earning a reasonable living and have more men involved right from the beginning. We need longer school days if a significant part of that time can be spent playing and exercising. We need to identify each child’s strengths, regardless of gender, and allow that child to use those strengths to be productive in school in a variety of acceptable ways, not just a few narrow ways that relegate most children to feeling inadequate.
Parents have an important role in addressing this problem. One thing is to err on the side of safety and regardless of how mature your son seems to be, don’t make him one of the youngest in his class. Second, too often parents will present to me a picture of a son whom they describe as lovable and caring, sensitive, having good friends and being terrific with young children. But they are distressed because he is very inconsistent in his school performance, only seems to work at what interests him, and resists doing homework because he would rather play. This is a great young boy with the kind of values and spirit that we hope he’ll continue to demonstrate when he’s a man. He might make a great teacher some day! We need parents to focus more on their child’s successes and less on their perceived shortcomings, especially with their sons. Parents must be more conscious of their own gender bias.
In addition, the very behaviors and attitudes which cause many boys to under perform in school serve them well in the real world. High energy, totally absorbed by only what strongly interests them, challenging the rules, and having strong leadership skills often are the foundation for successful entrepreneurs and great innovators in many spheres of life. Parents and educators need to be able to identify that potential and not destroy the drive and self-confidence of these “academically underachieving” boys before they get a chance to prove themselves in the real world.
And just for emphasis, I want to state again, we need boys to have meaningful relationships with men from birth on.

Performance diagnostics in handbiking during competition
Performance diagnostics in handbiking during competition
STUDY DESIGN: Case study in handbiking under competition conditions. OBJECTIVE: To investigate exercise-induced, metabolic, pulmonary, cardiovascular and energetic reactions of a paraplegic athlete during a city marathon. SETTING: City marathon Cologne, Germany. SUBJECT: We tested a 27-year-old male athlete from the German national team. The power wheelchairs of the athlete was a complete traumatic spinal cord injury ASIA/IMSOP Grade A at the level of the fourth thoratic vertebra (Th4). METHOD: In the competition, the athlete used his own race handbike whose crank system had been exchanged for a power measurement system with registering option. For measuring ventilatory gas parameters during exercise, a portable spirometric system was used. The athlete managed to finish the marathon race in 1:48:54 h. RESULTS: The mean oxygen uptake (VO2) during the marathon was 1580 ml/min, with a maximum value of 2535 ml/min. The mean heart frequency was 137 bpm with a maximum of 157 bpm. During the race the mean energy consumption was 463 kcal/h with a maximum of 758 kcal/h. Prior to the race, the blood lactate value was 2.9 mmol/l; after 10 km 4.4 mmol/l; after 20 km 2.9 mmol/l, and after 30 km 2.9 mmol/l. CONCLUSION: Competition-oriented power wheelchairs should concentrate on exercise units of long duration at low intensities–like marathon runners or cyclists–in order to improve their aerobic performance capacity. However, it has to be pointed out that paraplegic athletes develop relatively high metabolic intensities in competition and that the variability of their physiological parameters is considerably high.

Wholesale Tea Suppliers
Wholesale Tea Suppliers
Interested in setting up a home business selling teas? Buying wholesale tea from a distributor is easier than you’d think and you could save a huge amount as opposed to the retail price. This article is a guide to tea, buying your merchandise and finding suppliers for the product.
Tea comes in thousands of varieties and has been drunk since ancient times. It is the second most popular drink in the world (second only to water!) It has, in its various kinds, however, never been more popular than now in the West. Health food fads and an enthusiasm for a more natural lifestyle has led many people to put down their coffees and take up green or herbal teas. This is an opportunity for anyone looking to retail!
Even tea from the same plant as black tea (Camellia Sinensis) can come in a huge variety of forms. Green tea is steamed, rather than fermented. Gunpowder tea comes in the form of rolled-up pellets of green tea. Oolong tea lies somewhere in between green and black. White tea is the least processed of all. Some teas are flavoured, for example with chopped jasmine flowers mixed in with the tea leaves. Aside from all these, there are a multitude of herbal and natural teas (most of which contain no actual “tea”) available - from ginseng to chamomile. Most teas that are sold in the West are actually blends of different kinds of tea, often teas from different parts of the world. Different blending according to the tastes of that country accounts for the differing flavours of black tea found in any given country.
All teas are usually made in the same manner. Buds, leaves, or twigs of the plant in question are steeped in hot water to release the flavour inside. Some types of tea are then sweetened to taste with honey or sugar (among other things). Black tea is often drunk with a small amount of milk.
Some wholesalers specialise in certain kinds of tea, or perhaps tea from a certain area. Unsurprisingly, many wholesale suppliers of tea are found in China, Japan or India.
Be sure to check all local regulations that are involved when importing any type of food product. There are usually more requirements in this category, than in other consumable selections. Be sure you have also satisfied any specific requirements as far as duties that can be substantial on all types of herbs.
This is not the only place to find distributors however, and in particular if you are looking for certified organic or fair-trade teas there are other places to look. The internet has no shortage of tea wholesalers. For example, try Republic of Tea to find suppliers of organic tea, or Celestial Seasonings, which offers a blend of natural herbal teas. These suppliers provide a more unusual product which may be more attractive to customers. Once you decide on the type of tea you want to sell, it should be easy enough to pick a supplier that suits your need.
