    <content:encoded><![CDATA[Many different video web sites are popping up all over the internet, especially after the success of <a href="http://<a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/youtube" rel="tag">YouTube</a>.com" >http://YouTube.com</a>. Why didn't I think of the concept of putting up a web site where people can post their own videos? This type of web site is such an easy idea, but many people overlooked the popularity that such a web site could bring. However now that <a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/google" rel="tag">Google</a> bought <a href="http://YouTube.com" >http://YouTube.com</a> for 1.65 billion dollars in stocks, everyone is trying their hand at cashing in on this huge market. Most of these web sites are trying to cash in by posting videos that are funny, or <a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/spoofs" rel="tag">spoofs</a> on everyday activities. I think some of the funniest videos on the internet today are videos about <a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/president+bush" rel="tag">President Bush</a>. These videos range from actual film footage, to footage that has been modified, to spoofs that poke fun at President Bush. <br /><br /> The actual film footage of President Bush is hilarious, because we all know that he is not one of the best public speakers around. He is always saying the wrong thing, or getting his words twisted in a way that he did not intend. One of my favorite videos of this type of footage is when President <a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/bush+says" rel="tag">Bush says</a> something like, <a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/fool+me+once+shame+on+you" rel="tag">fool me once shame on you</a>, fool me twice, I never get fooled again. I have also seen other footage of President Bush that was modified in a way to make him seem even funnier than he already was. When I think of these types of videos one comes to mind first, the video that slows down President Bush's speech so that it sounds like he is drunk. This video is hilarious and has made many appearances on different late night talk shows. The final types of video are spoofs that poke fun at President Bush. An example of this type of video I have seen is one that has a look-alike comedian standing on stage doing his own rendition of President Bush's State of the Union Address. This is probably my favorite video, because the comedian is making up new words, forgetting what he was talking about, and other common things that President Bush has been known to do. If you have a little free time and you want to get a good laugh, then just search for President Bush videos online and you will have a wonderful time.   <bio>Check out our Funny and Stupid Videos and our President Bush Video Clips at <a href="http://www.geckotales.com/videos.htm" >http://www.geckotales.com/videos.htm</a> </bio>]]></content:encoded>

    <content:encoded><![CDATA[ <a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/michael+bush" rel="tag">Michael Bush</a> was born in Louisville, Kentucky on June 16, 1984. Bush is a powerful <a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/running+back" rel="tag">running back</a> who weighs in at more than 250 pounds, and stands at 6 foot 3 inches tall. He has a rare combination of speed, size, and strength that has made him a force on the football field since his early years. <br /><br /> During his high school career Bush was a do it all type player. Throughout his four years he played positions including quarterback, running back, defensive back, defensive end, safety, linebacker, and wide receiver. As a senior at Male High School Bush held down the <a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/quarterback+position" rel="tag">quarterback position</a> and led his team to the state title. One game in particular stands out in Bush's high school career. As a senior he matched up against the team of his future teammate at the <a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/university+of+louisville" rel="tag">University of Louisville</a>, <a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/brian+brohm" rel="tag">Brian Brohm</a>. During this game Bush ran for 116 yards, threw for 468 yards, and accounted for seven touchdowns. In a game that many think is the best ever in the state of Kentucky, Bush's team came out on top 59-56. <br /><br /> After high school Bush took his game to the University of Louisville where he began to play running back once again. The 2005 season was a breakout year for Bush when he ran for 1,143 yards and scored 23 touchdowns. His 23 scores were enough to lead the entire NCAA Division I in scoring. Unfortunately, during the first game of the 2006 season Bush broke his right <a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/tibia" rel="tag">tibia</a>, and never returned to the field. Before this injury he had scored three touchdowns and tallied 128 yards on the ground. <br /><br /> Although Bush only had the chance to showcase his talent for one full season, he definitely left his mark on the program and is looking forward to doing so with future teams as well. <br /><br /> After the conclusion of the 2006 season Bush declared himself eligible for the <a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/2007+nfl+draft" rel="tag">2007 NFL Draft</a>. He is looking to pick up where he left off before being injured.   <bio>Bob writes for <a href="http://www.MVPProShop.com" >http://www.MVPProShop.com</a> and <a href="http://www.2GoAllOut.com" >http://www.2GoAllOut.com</a>.

    <content:encoded><![CDATA[<a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/president+bush" rel="tag">President Bush</a> made a secret trip to Iraq to meet with Iraqi <a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/prime+minister" rel="tag">Prime Minister</a> Nouri al-<a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/maliki" rel="tag">Maliki</a> to assure him that the U. S. will continue to support efforts to stabilize and rebuild Iraq. Mr. Maliki thanked him and assured him that he would do everything to increase President Bush's approval ratings. After further discussions, the two leaders agreed that the best way to accomplish both goals may be to exchange jobs. <br /><br /> President Bush stated, "I'm very involved in the U. S. involvement in Iraq, but I understand not all Americans believe we can win here. Since I know we can win, I may decide that the best way to achieve the goal is to take Prime Minister al-Maliki's job. If I go ahead with the switch, I expect to be addressed as Iraqi Prime Minster <a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/george+bush" rel="tag">George Bush</a>." <br /><br /> The Iraqi Prime Minister added, "And then you can address me as American President Nouri al-Maliki. I know this proposed <a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/job+exchange" rel="tag">job exchange</a> will come as a big surprise to many Americans, but President Bush and I have discussed how this might be a way to give America a President with higher approval ratings. I know the language will be a bit of a handicap for both of us, but I've been listening to Mr. Bush, and I think my mistakes in English are not that much more bad than the ones he makes." <br /><br /> They went on to <a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/chide" rel="tag">chide</a> each other, with Mr. Bush saying, "If we do make the switch, I <a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/guess" rel="tag">guess</a> I'll be addressing the Iraqi Parliament, and I suspect they'll be a lot friendlier than Democrats." <br /><br /> Mr. Maliki responded, "Then I would board your helicopter to take me Baghdad International Airport, so I can fly to Washington and get started in my new job as President of the United States. <br /><br /> "Do I have to become a Muslim?" Bush asked Miliki. "I'm not sure my constituency back in the US would approve." <br /><br /> "Maybe it will go better for me as the President if I become a Protestant," Maliki replied. "But I'm not sure how that would go over with my constituency, either." <br /><br /> While many Americans were uncertain about the proposed switch, they were willing to adopt a wait and see attitude. <br /><br /> As one American commented, "Look, if the former Iraqi Prime Minister does a good job as the President of the United States, I'm OK with that. In fact, I'll vote to reelect him in 2008. I just need certain assurances, like seeing him say The Pledge of Allegiance."   <bio>Tom Attea, humorist and creator of <a href="http://NewsLaugh.com" >http://NewsLaugh.com</a>, has had six shows produced Off-Broadway and has written comedy for TV. Critics have called his writing ""delightfully funny" and "witty" with "good, genuine laughs." </bio>]]></content:encoded>

    <content:encoded><![CDATA[If you own a vehicle, there is a big possibility that you may acquire a <a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/traffic+ticket" rel="tag">traffic ticket</a>. Not <a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/paying+attention" rel="tag">paying attention</a> to driving or being in a hurry may bet you a traffic ticket. It is possible to get a ticket even it is not your fault. It may be due to human errors. Some people who do not ought to have a traffic ticket may get one sometimes. If this happens to you, what do you do? What if you do not deserve to be given a ticket but you got one? Are you going to complain to everybody about what happened and about the prejudice you experienced, or are you going to beat the traffic ticket? When you decide on beating traffic tickets, you must know how to handle the situation to be able to win. <br><br>Whether you were given a traffic ticket or you not, it is essential to have knowledge in beating traffic tickets. Beating traffic tickets is complicated if you do not know the ins and outs of it so here are three <a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/simple+steps" rel="tag">simple steps</a> on beating traffic tickets.<br><br>This guidelines will tell you on how to ask for a hearing on the subject, how to get ready and plan for the said hearing as well as on what you should be expecting in court. This steps in beating traffic tickets does not guarantee that you will win the case but it can give you a great opportunity to succeed. <br><br>Step number one. Keep in mind that paying the traffic ticket is not the solution. It is recommended to ask hearing on the subject from the court. You can contact the court by heading for the courthouse personally and addressing the right people who serves for the <a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/clerks+of+court" rel="tag">clerks of court</a>. Another option is to write a letter to the people who are at <a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/traffic+division" rel="tag">traffic division</a> and ask for a hearing. You can get the information on how to send the letter or to whom you can call, as well as the courthouse's address on the traffic ticket itself. Read everything at the back of your ticket for the information concerning the <a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/laws+and+regulations" rel="tag">laws and regulations</a>. Be aware that every <a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/circumstance" rel="tag">circumstance</a> on the ways to ask a hearing differ in various states and countries. <br> <br>Step number two. Plan for the hearing. Gather as much information and evidence as possible. Remember to prove your innocence. If feasible, take pictures of the scene that can help your case. You have the right to request to look at the report filed against you, but it is not necessary for it might not be good on the case. By doing this, you might irritate the officer. <br><br>Step number three. Make sure that you check the traffic ticket. If you see something out of the ordinary such as missing signature of the officer or if the signature is difficult to read, it is best to mention this to court. This may help with your case. Prepare yourself in speaking in front of the court. And bear in mind that if the officer does not show up in the hearing, your case will be dismissed.<bio><a TARGET="_new" href="http://www.TrafficTicketSaver.com">Beating traffic tickets</a>?

    <content:encoded><![CDATA[If you surf the Internet at all these days, you are guaranteed to run across a web site that has a gallery of <a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/funny+videos" rel="tag"><a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/funny+video" rel="tag">funny video</a>s</a>. They are everywhere now. The day after the State of the Union address, I found about forty web sites that had spoofs of <a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/president+bush" rel="tag">President Bush</a>'s speech on them. They were hilarious. My friends and I rolled for days about some of the things on these videos. Many of the funny videos that appear on the web are spoofs on someone, or something famous, but some of these videos are just everyday situations with a funny twist. <br /><br /> President <a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/bush+videos" rel="tag">Bush videos</a> can be found on almost any funny video web site online. Most of these sites have an entire section of President Bush videos for your viewing pleasure. No matter how you feel about Bush, you will <a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/definitely" rel="tag">definitely</a> find these videos hilarious. For the most part these videos poke fun at President Bush's poor public speaking skills. They always have him making up words like "presidate", and other words similar to that. <br /><br /> If you do not care for funny videos that make fun of celebrities or other <a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/famous+people" rel="tag">famous people</a>, then you might find the videos about everyday situations a little more your speed. I have seen many different funny videos that show an everyday task, like IT helpdesk, but they over <a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/exaggerate" rel="tag">exaggerate</a> the stereotypes in the situation. The IT helpdesk video that I have watched was very funny, because the guy answering the phones was putting the customer on hold every five seconds. Then when the customer was on hold he would complain that the customer was the stupidest person in the world. The helpdesk representative would then get back on the phone and he would be overly nice and patient. <br /><br /> These funny videos online are taking on a life of their own. Many ordinary people have gotten famous by publishing their everyday videos online. You can see people falling out of chairs, slipping on the sidewalk for no reason, and a multitude of other funny situations. If you are ever surfing the Internet and need a good laugh then make sure you search for some funny videos and you will be laughing in no time.   <bio>Visit our site: Hilarious Video On9now <a href="http://www.on9now.com/" >http://www.on9now.com/</a> </bio>]]></content:encoded>

    <content:encoded><![CDATA[ <a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/google+adwords" rel="tag">Google AdWords</a>. They make it seem so easy - just follow the sign up process and your ads will be displayed all over the internet. <br /><br /> For a price! <br /><br /> That price is your bank balance unless you know the best ways of beating AdWords and making it work for you, rather than the other way around. <br /><br /> Follow these simple tips to help make your AdWords campaign profitable. <br /><br /> Bid lower for the <a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/content+network" rel="tag">content network</a>. When you first sign up, Google <a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/tick" rel="tag">tick</a> all the boxes for you, including the "content network". These are the sites where smaller publishers display Google AdWords adverts and Google share the advertising revenue. They deliver traffic, sure, but they're not always as high quality as the main <a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/google+search+engine" rel="tag">Google search engine</a>. So you need to tick the box that Google left unticked that will allow you to bid lower for content network ads. Play with the figure but between 10% and 20% of your regular bid price seems to work well for most people. <br /><br /> Put <a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/square+brackets" rel="tag">square brackets</a> round your keywords. So instead of your keyword being: <br /><br /> beating AdWords <br /><br /> it becomes: <br /><br /> [beating AdWords] <br /><br /> That way your advert will only be shown when someone searches for your exact <a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/phrases" rel="tag">phrases</a>. Your ads won't be shown as often but that's fine as you'll know that when they do show, people are looking for exactly what you're selling. Otherwise your ads could be shown for phrases like "beating AdWords free", where you're unlikely to make any money if someone clicks. <br /><br /> Capture people's <a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/email" rel="tag">email</a> address when they click. Devise a landing page (that meets Google's new standards) and offer a free gift in exchange for your potential customer's email address. Then you can keep in touch with them over the coming weeks and months and stand a much higher chance of getting them to spend money with you.   <bio>Get your free report on how to make your AdWords campaigns profitable at <a href="http://replymagic.com/adwords-profits.html" >http://replymagic.com/adwords-profits.html</a>  </bio>]]></content:encoded>

    <content:encoded><![CDATA[So you finally got that job interview or date or facelift or [insert something that you really want] that you have been dying to have. But thing is, knowing your self, even after <a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/setting+3" rel="tag">setting 3</a> <a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/alarm+clocks" rel="tag">alarm clocks</a> and arranging for your mom to wake you up early for this thing, you still slept in and no you are this close to being late. Not if you drive a couple of miles above the speed limit. Heck, you think you can risk it. So, you pushed the gas and let your wild side kick in. Bam! Next thing you know Mr. <a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/good+cop" rel="tag">Good Cop</a> is on your tail and you have no choice but to pull over. Now what? Worry no more because here are some tips on <a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/beating+a+speeding+ticket" rel="tag">beating a speeding ticket</a> in any state.<br><br>Beating a speeding ticket in any state tip #1: Follow orders<br><br>Think boot camp or your gym teacher. Or your mother. You have to follow everything Mr. Good Cop says. He wants your license? Give it to him with a smile. He wants to check your breath with an <a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/alcohol+analyzer" rel="tag">alcohol analyzer</a>; you blow him away with your breath. It's like "He Tarzan, you silly brown monkey."<br><br>Beating a speeding ticket in any state tip #2: Act dumb, sweet or very, very, VERY regretful<br><br>If you went to theater class then congratulations, now is the time to test what Madame <a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/pointy+nose" rel="tag">Pointy Nose</a> taught you in the real world. You have three choices - stupid, saccharinely sweet or extremely apologetic. For stupid, then just stutter a bit, then maybe act very confused (be careful as this may seem like you are drunk or something). If you are a woman, then you may try to sweet-talk Mr. Good Cop. However, if you are a 35 year old man with a beard covering half of your face, then the sweet rouse may not work. So you can do the superbly <a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/sorry+person" rel="tag">sorry person</a>. Everyone can do sorry but you have to be really sorry, to the brink of tears level of apologetic. If you feel these are very immoral steps to beat a ticket then you may want to resort to tip number three.<br><br>Beating a speeding ticket in any state tip #3: Remember that the policeman is a human person<br><br>You may want to tell him a story about your life while he is writing you the ticket, you may want to show him pictures of your kids or you may want to tell him the reason why you were rushing. Cops are human being also so they also get reasons and they also understand circumstances.<br><br>Beating a speeding ticket in any state tip #4: Show how scared you are<br><br>Do not act so tough in front of the policeman as we both know by the time you heard the sirens, you almost peed in your pants. So show your real self and show how scared you are of him. He may end up wavering to issue your ticket as he may be feeling sorry for you already.<bio><a target="_new" href="http://www.TrafficTicketSaver.com">Beating a speeding ticket</a>?

    <content:encoded><![CDATA[There was a time when countries were scared of having the US invade their country and avoided anything that might make the US military take action against them. In chess they say, the threat of a move is worse than the move itself. Chess is based on military strategy and the phrase applies there as well. <br /><br /> War is messy. Civilians get killed. Children get killed. That's the reality of any way. That is exactly why you should never be for going to war unless there is absolutely no other option. We had other options in regards to Iraq. <br /><br /> By going to <a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/war+in+iraq" rel="tag">war in Iraq</a>, <a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/bush" rel="tag">Bush</a> has exposed our weaknesses, not our strengths. We do not have enough <a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/manpower" rel="tag">manpower</a> to control Iraq, so <a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/iran" rel="tag">Iran</a> is not afraid, <a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/north+korea" rel="tag">North Korea</a> is not afraid, and certainly China is not afraid. These countries now feel they can do anything they want because what can the US do about it? They can't even control a small country like Iraq. <br /><br /> North Korea fires test missiles in preparation of a nuclear attack even though the US threatened them. Iran is now building a nuclear reactor despite threats from Bush and Cheney. In Iraq, terrorists and factions within Iraq openly defy the US. <br /><br /> Bush keeps talking about showing strength, but instead shows weakness. You cannot fight half a war. If there was actually a reason to have gone into Iraq, then it should have been all out war. Instead Bush has played it like a game of shirts and skins in basketball. "We're fighting these Iraqis, but not these over here!" While our troops have to keep figuring out whom is the shirts and who are the skins. <br /><br /> In <a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/afghanistan" rel="tag">Afghanistan</a>, we had a reason. We had 9-11 and at least had someone who appeared to have admitted to being responsible. <a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/usama+bin+laden" rel="tag">Usama Bin Laden</a> claimed responsibility and the Taliban supported it. We could have leveled Afghanistan and made it a parking lot and I would have supported it 100%. <br /><br /> Instead we didn't even finish the job there. We didn't capture Bin Laden and we have yet to create a democracy there as was promised by Bush. The Afghan government barely controls Kabul, let alone all of Afghanistan. And we are too busy in Iraq to finish the job. <br /><br /> Afghanistan is bigger than Iraq and has a larger population than Iraq. Therefore if we are truly doing all of this to help the people of that region, why is 10% of the money for the wars in the Middle East going to Afghanistan while 90% is used Iraq? If this is truly about 9-11 and terrorism, why is 10% spent in the region where the attack on 9-11 was planned and 90% spent on Iraq, which even Bush has admitted had nothing to do with 9-11? <br /><br /> Whether you want to face it or not, whether you are a republican or a democrat, whether you like bush or do not, you cannot ignore the fact that the whole war on terrorism and the war in Iraq are complete and utter failures. Type failure in Google and you get GW Bush's biography. its no wonder. Go ahead try it. Type failure into Google and go to the first result.   <bio>Chris McElroy is neither a Republicrook nor a Demicrook.

    <content:encoded><![CDATA[As expected, <a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/george+bush" rel="tag">George Bush</a> exercised his <a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/veto+power" rel="tag">veto power</a> and expunged the controversial <a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/charcoal+grill" rel="tag">Charcoal Grill</a> Bill that the Senate and the House, growing wiser about the promise of science, bravely passed -- without, however, enough votes to override his ill-considered flick of the pen. The bill would have allowed federal funding for barbeque research. It was the first veto of his presidency. <br /><br /> Citing the role of carbon, not only in <a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/charcoal+briquettes" rel="tag">charcoal briquettes</a>, but as the fundamental component of life, Mr. Bush stated, "You've got to respect carbon. Without it, none of us would be here." He then pointed to himself, and said, "For instance, I wouldn't be here. I owe my life to carbon." <br /><br /> Standing behind him were a number of effervescently grateful families who had been invited to participate in the photo op. <br /><br /> Mr. Bush, smiling broadly, picked up one of the children, and stated, "Same goes for all these families and their wonderful children. Without carbon, they wouldn't be here." <br /><br /> A reporter noted, "I believe that's correct, sir, since carbon is also found in oil, and I'm sure they drove or flew in." <br /><br /> "Oh, s---," Bush exclaimed. "Being the president is a <a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/lot" rel="tag">lot</a> harder than I thought. Don't tell me! In oil, too?" <br /><br /> "Yes, sir, and in coal." <br /><br /> "Well, I'm not a chemist," the President admitted. "So I'll have to look into that. If it's true, I'll have to come out against <a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/coal+burning" rel="tag">coal burning</a>." <br /><br /> "What about oil burning?" the reporter pressed. <br /><br /> "That's another question I'll have to ask the experts. We have a lot of those fellows back in the big derrick state. I'll do whatever's necessary. As you know, I have eight vetoes." <br /><br /> "Eight?" the reporter asked. <br /><br /> "Yes, and so far I only exercised one," the President said, and then volunteered, "I'll show you." <br /><br /> With that, he kicked off his shoes and pulled off his socks. Then, with a remarkably simian-like move, he kicked up his <a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/feet" rel="tag">feet</a> and pointed at them. <br /><br /> "See, I have five toes on each foot. That makes four spaces between them, or, if you count both feet, a total of eight spaces. Now, notice how the space between every two toes creates a V. Those are my vetoes. Count 'em. Eight. So I'm ready to do my sacred duty to protect carbon and all its creations."   <bio>Tom Attea, humorist and creator of <a href="http://NewsLaugh.com" >http://NewsLaugh.com</a>, has had six shows produced Off-Broadway.

    <content:encoded><![CDATA[At least, Washington can agree to come together to defend one of its own. The politcos did just that in response to <a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/hugo+chavez" rel="tag">Hugo Chavez</a> calling <a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/president+bush" rel="tag">President Bush</a> "the devil" in a speech at the <a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/united+nations" rel="tag">United Nations</a>. <br /><br /> Commendably, <a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/representative+charles+rangel" rel="tag">Representative Charles Rangel</a>, a New York Democrat no less, came forward fittingly irate to say, "I want <a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/president+chavez" rel="tag">President Chavez</a> to please understand that even though many people in the United States are critical of our president, that we resent the fact that he would come to the United States and criticize President Bush." <br /><br /> Even the flamingly critical Reverend Jesse Jackson, while noting the US did attempt a coup of Mr. Chavez, said, "... my appeal to him is get beyond the anger.... I think that he should not be calling President Bush a 'devil.' President Bush should not be calling him 'evil' or calling him a 'tyrant.' We must cease these hostilities.'' <br /><br /> Of course, the usual defenders signed in. <br /><br /> Representative <a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/john+boehner" rel="tag">John Boehner</a> of Ohio called Huge Ego a ''power-hungry autocrat'' and his display before the UN ''an embarrassment and an insult to the <a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/american+people" rel="tag">American people</a>.'' <br /><br /> Chavez, meanwhile, employed the usual tactic of spurious internationals by trying to drive a wedge between the American people and their government, vowing that he's a friend of the American people and, to prove it, he announced he intends to more than double his supply of discounted heating oil to poor Americans. <br /><br /> While some politicians dissented from the oil for appeasement program, Rangel admitted it was effective and expects his district will get even more of the black diplomatic elixir next year. But, remaining on the side of President Bush, he went on to say, ''But you don't come into my country, you don't come into my congressional district, and you don't condemn my president." <br /><br /> Good for you, Chuck. <br /><br /> Yet maybe the most telling thing about Chavez is, most Americans still can't get used to the fact that Venezuela is not a friendly nation. Many had even planned vacations to the sunny country, which is, of course, not all that much farther from the southernmost Antilles. <br /><br /> But we can see those tickets going up in smoke as readily has his oil income from the numerous US corporations that are seeking to power their processes with oil from countries that, while they may never call the President an angel, at least, have the sense to make their money and prudently refrain from pumping venom.   <bio>Tom Attea, humorist and creator of <a href="http://NewsLaugh.com" >http://NewsLaugh.com</a>, has had six shows produced Off-Broadway.

    <content:encoded><![CDATA[Seeing a <a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/patrol+car" rel="tag">patrol car</a> with siren flashing on your side view mirror can always be associated with varying emotions - fear, irritation, absurdity, the oh-no-not-again look... The point is you know exactly what each feels like because at one time or another, you have had a first hand experience with being on the receiving end of a speeding violation. Since you are likely to be in a rush (the reason why you are speeding in the first place) and that shelling out at least a hundred dollars is way too heavy for the pockets, knowing these methods of beating <a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/speeding+ticket" rel="tag">speeding ticket</a> is almost a must for every driver. <br><br>The most obvious would be not to step on the gas too much. Don't speed in the first place since weighing the inconveniences of a normal driving versus a <a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/speeding+car" rel="tag">speeding car</a> with an officer on tow does not take too much effort. Better be late for a few minutes than having to be detained for a couple of hours or be <a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/absent+from+work" rel="tag">absent from work</a> just to go to court. Now since even the best experts on the wheels can be flagged for a speeding violation, though at lesser frequencies than most, acquaint yourself with some handy information on beating speeding ticket.<br><br>Once you see an officer on your tail, remember every detail. Take note of your speed, the <a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/exact+location" rel="tag">exact location</a> where you were asked to stop, the discussion between the officer and most especially, the name or names if more than one is in that patrol car. Understandably, you may feel hostility towards them, but since they are doing their job (and may give you a tougher time should you piss them off), it is best to show <a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/politeness" rel="tag">politeness</a>, concern and a bit of <a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/cluelessness" rel="tag">cluelessness</a>. Being strongly on the defensive only invites further trouble so you'd better show that you are willing to cooperate instead. The officer/s then asks you to choose between two things: either agree to pay the ticket - a hundred dollars in the least and even more on other states, or schedule a court date. In beating speeding ticket you must give great care to anything you divulge or say, especially admitting your guilt, for it can be used by that officer to continue charges on you. The burden of proof lies on them, so better not hand it personally and let them dig for themselves. <br><br>Agreeing to pay the ticket not only makes you a hundred-dollar poorer, it can also affect your insurance premium to be sky high. Remember to appear on court promptly during the specified time and location. Wear formal and decent clothes instead of looking drab. Once there, aside from wishing that the officer is not present, be prepared by reviewing the details of the charges and checking out your driving records. This is another good way of beating speeding ticket that shows your knowledge of the offence and how unlikely you are to really commit the charge. Again, aggression and being stubborn will get you nowhere, so cooperate without convicting yourself.<br><br>Lastly, most speeding violation cases are won when the driver actively shows preparedness and smart thinking. Pointing out the weakness of the charges, without discrediting the officer, can make it easier for the judge to dismiss the case and let you go without a penalty or a rise in your premiums. Beating speeding ticket is not an insurmountable task once you set out in proving factual events.<bio><a TARGET="_new" href="http://www.TrafficTicketSaver.com">Beating speeding ticket</a> today?

    <content:encoded><![CDATA[ I like going to <a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/nurseries" rel="tag">nurseries</a> to shop for my garden every spring, but since the emergence of garden centers in practically every store I regularly shop in, I hardly visit the nursery anymore. Why pay fifty dollars for a new <a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/lilac+bush" rel="tag">lilac bush</a> at a fancy greenhouse when I can buy one at <a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/home+depot" rel="tag">Home Depot</a> for only twenty-five bucks? I suppose there may be a compromise in quality when shopping for <a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/plants" rel="tag">plants</a> at regular stores rather than garden centers, but even if a plant or bush is wilted when you buy it, you can always nurse it back to good health. <br /><br /> There are especially nice garden centers in the Super <a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/walmart" rel="tag">Walmart</a> and <a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/kmart" rel="tag">Kmart</a> in my city. Walmart is especially nice because the store itself is huge and even has a whole food section where you can buy groceries or ready-made foods. When I was there recently I decided to check out the garden center to see what I could find, thinking it would be lacking in variety similar to the garden centers in the local grocery stores. I was surprised when I walked outside into the huge chained area that contained every type of plant, flower and seed imaginable. They even had a whole supply of lawn maintenance supplies including fertilizers and bags of special soil. <br /><br /> I bought myself a lilac bush from Home Depot a few weeks ago and I planted it in my front yard as an experiment to see if a cheap bush would grow as well as the nicer ones I've bought at greenhouses over the years. So far the lilac is looking great and I expect that it will continue to do well as long as I pay attention to it and take care of it while it takes root. The real test will come next spring when I am able to see if it produces flowers. If it does then I will probably continue to shop for plants at garden centers rather than at expensive nurseries. <br /><br /> The only real reason to go to a nursery for plants and garden supplies is if you need <a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/knowledgeable+staff" rel="tag">knowledgeable staff</a> to answer your questions. One thing the garden centers don't have is staff that specializes in plants. The employees working in the garden center are just as likely to be working in the CD section or the household cleaners, and therefore probably won't know much about plants. But with the wealth of information that is available on the internet this shouldn't be a problem when planning your garden.   <bio> <a href="http://www.realestatearticledirectory.com/articles/landscaping.html" >http://www.realestatearticledirectory.com/articles/landscaping.html</a>  </bio>]]></content:encoded>

    <content:encoded><![CDATA[One of the hardest people to find a <a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/christmas+gift" rel="tag">Christmas gift</a> for is your <a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/dad" rel="tag">dad</a>. In addition to being a man, which translates to "not-much-into-material-things", dads also do not need much of anything. <br /><br /> So what to give them besides the gifts that you have already given them for the past Christmases, birthdays and other <a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/special+occasions" rel="tag">special occasions</a>? Here are some pointers on how to decide on what to give your dad for Christmas. <br /><br /> 1. Raid their closets and their <a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/desks" rel="tag">desks</a> <br /><br /> Look inside their rooms and look for things that they still do not have or things that need replacement. For instance, does their wallet look tattered? Do they need a new one? Is there cuff links already tarnished? Will they appreciate another pair? <br /><br /> Are they missing a white polo for the office or for <a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/formal+occasions" rel="tag">formal occasions</a>? Another area where you can look into for potential gift ideas is their desks. Get inside their study or their home office and look for things that they can possibly use. <br /><br /> 2. Connive with <a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/mom" rel="tag">mom</a> <br /><br /> Who better to ask about what your dad needs but your mom? Ask your mom what gift will your dad most appreciate. Chances are, she will know something that your dad can really use. If she has no idea, you can ask her to try and ask your dad for you. She can either be direct about it or try the subtle approach. Whatever works! <br /><br /> 3. Ask <br /><br /> To cut everything short and to minimize all the work, you can always directly ask your dad what he wants for Christmas. Nothing beats not beating around the bush! Of course, make sure that your dad is the type who will tell you what he wants. If not, don't bother asking as you will only ruin the surprise. There are just some people who are not comfortable telling people what they want as gifts. <br /><br /> 4. Consider their interests <br /><br /> When buying gifts for your dad, you should always look into their interests.

    <content:encoded><![CDATA[In part two of our NFL week two preview, we will look at four NFL games. I'll review the following games: Texans at Colts, Saints at Packers, Giants at Eagles and Raiders at Ravens. The Giants at Eagles will be the matchup of the week out of this group. Let's take a look. <br /><br /> <a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/houston+texans" rel="tag">Houston Texans</a> at <a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/indianapolis+colts" rel="tag">Indianapolis Colts</a> <br /><br /> Are Texans fans wishing they had <a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/reggie+bush" rel="tag">Reggie Bush</a> yet? The Texans offense was stifled when they played the Eagles. Ten points and no rushing attack won't get the job done in the NFL. The Colts are coming off a major win in New York against the Giants. It was the Manning Bowl. Now, they get a cupcake in Houston. For the Colts, it's time to go 9-0 against the Texans. <br /><br /> Pick: Colts Why? Colts are 8-0 against the Texans and beat them by an average of 15 points per game. <br /><br /> <a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/new+orleans+saints" rel="tag">New Orleans Saints</a> at <a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/green+bay+packers" rel="tag">Green Bay Packers</a> <br /><br /> If not for Reggie Bush, this game would have about 6 people watching it--all fans. The Packers were shutout last week and looked like one of the worst teams in the league. This is no surprise. The Saints looked improved against the Browns, but they still have work to do. Neither of these teams will be going to the playoffs this season, but it's worth watching, because Reggie Bush will get about 20 or so touches again. Last season the Packers destroyed the Saints, but this Saints team has some new key players. <br /><br /> Pick: Saints Why? Despite their horrible record in Green Bay, I think the addition of Drew Brees and Reggie Bush will help get the job done. <br /><br /> <a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/new+york+giants" rel="tag">New York Giants</a> at <a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/philadelphia+eagles" rel="tag">Philadelphia Eagles</a> <br /><br /> The New York giants are in a must win situation. They are 0-1 after their loss to the Colts and they play in what many regard as the toughest division in the NFC. If they go down 0-2, they might not be able to recover. Their schedule is brutal. The Eagles will have their first real test this week. Sure, they beat up the Texans, but who doesn't these days? The Giants have won three straight in Philly, but this game could be different. <br /><br /> Pick: Giants Why? I think both of these teams will be in the playoffs, but the Giants have too many weapons. <br /><br /> Oakland Raiders at Baltimore Ravens <br /><br /> To say that the Raiders looked disgusting in their Monday night opener against the Chargers would be a grave understatement. They are one of the worst teams in the league. It's hard to imagine them putting up a good fight in Baltimore. The Ravens have their defense working again. They shut down Tampa Bay and should have no trouble marching to 2-0. <br /><br /> Pick: Baltimore Why? Because I'm not crazy.   <bio><a href="http://www.advantagesportsbetting.com" >http://www.advantagesportsbetting.com</a> <a href="http://www.sportsbettingfootball.com" >http://www.sportsbettingfootball.com</a> <a href="http://www.sportsbettingfootball.com/category/football-betting/" >http://www.sportsbettingfootball.com/category/football-betting/</a> </bio>]]></content:encoded>

    <content:encoded><![CDATA[When trying to beat the game of roulette, the winning is all in the numbers. When the player takes the time to notice the patterns of the wheel, they will end up a winner in the end. <br><br><a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/pivot+system" rel="tag">Pivot System</a> Roulette<br><br>If the player wants to beat the game of roulette using the pivot system, they will need to take note of all the <a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/winning+number" rel="tag">winning number</a>s on the <a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/roulette+wheel" rel="tag">roulette wheel</a>. The player is looking for the first winning number to repeat. That repeating number is called the pivot number and will be the number the player will bet in order to beat the game. <br><br>An adequate example of a winning <a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/number+sequence" rel="tag">number sequence</a> may be 12, 15, 17, 20, 22, 12. The number 12 is now the pivot number and the number the player will bet on the wheel. <br><br>The player will now bet the number 12 for 36 rolls or until the number hits as a winner. The odds when betting any particular individual number on the roulette wheel pays out 35 to 1. This means the player will have a total of 36 chances to win a huge profit or at the very least break even in the game. When the number 12 hits, the player will need to start the process all over again at the same wheel or as an option, move to another table and find the pivot again. <br><br>The law of unequal distribution, a <a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/mathematical+rule" rel="tag">mathematical rule</a>, is at the heart of beating the game of roulette. When measured for a short period of time, the chances of all 37 numbers hitting in a row is slim to none. But, when measured over thousands of rolls, all numbers will hit the same amount of times. <br><br>Austrian System Roulette<br><br>Another way to beat the game of roulette is with the Austrian system. In order to use this method of beating the roulette wheel, the player will need to memorize the spots on the <a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/roulette+table" rel="tag">roulette table</a> where the chips will be placed. The idea is to cover as many numbers as possible with the least amount of chips. The player will place 6 chips on the first column and 6 chips on the third column. Additional chips will be placed between the numbers 0 and 00, in <a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/american+roulette" rel="tag">American roulette</a>, 8 and 11, 17 and 20 and 26 and 29. <br><br>Every time one of the 32 covered numbers hits, the player will be a winner on 2 of the chips bet. This system will return a winner in 85% of all bets and winning the game of roulette and beating the game of roulette can only be measured by the amount of money won at the end of a hand. <br><br>The player may find themselves asking, what happens if I lose all 16 chips? How can I beat this game with those chances? According to mathematical rules, this will only happen 15% of the time. That means the player will win more often than lose and thus beat the game of roulette. <br><br>Beating any casino game is all about winning money. The pivot theory and the Austrian theory are two ways of winning the game of roulette.<bio>Want to <a href="http://www.defeatthecasinos.com/roulette/">beat online roulette</a>?

    <content:encoded><![CDATA[Yesterday, I watched in disbelief George W. Bush's convoluted <a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/speech" rel="tag">speech</a> to the House of Representatives. It was rather telling that this speech wasn't in primetime but rather at 9 a.m. (6 a.m. in the West). I know a lot about politics since I write <a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/political+thrillers" rel="tag">political thrillers</a> (www.thetwentyfirstcentury.com) and I am constantly doing research for my books and articles. But it doesn't take a writer of politics, or even one who doesn't follow politics, to realize that what <a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/george+bush" rel="tag">George Bush</a> said yesterday made absolutely no sense. With all the (major) problems he and the Republican party are in, it is no wonder he has suddenly chosen to speak (or deceive) the American people about America's economics: November is coming. <br /><br /> In essence, Bush said that the state of our <a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/economy" rel="tag">economy</a> is in good shape and is getting stronger everyday. Am I crazy, or has George Bush tripled the deficit since he took office (and doubled his salary immediately after being sworn in)? <br /><br /> We now, for the first time in history, owe more to foreign countries than they owe us (weakening our position as the world's super power and endangering our defenses). <br /><br /> The Iraqi War is going to cost close to a <a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/trillion" rel="tag">trillion</a> dollars by the time it ends and we rebuild what we destroyed over there, destroying our economy over here. <br /><br /> There is still the rebuilding of New Orleans and other cities, not to mention what disasters are coming in the probable near future. <br /><br /> How about the billions of dollars a day in interest our country is accruing? <br /><br /> Bush wants to spend a fortune guarding our <a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/borders" rel="tag">borders</a>, not from <a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/terrorists" rel="tag">terrorists</a>, but from poor Mexican families who have no jobs and need to feed their families. The terrorists are coming in from Canada and other cities, not from Mexico. <br /><br /> Interest rates rise every month, forcing Americans to pay more on their credit cards and their mortgages and their college loans, etc. Because of that, housing prices have begun to decrease because people can't afford a home AND a huge interest rate, besides rising property taxes each year, to pay for it. Isn't this raising taxes by a different name. <br /><br /> George Bush still believes, and plans to continue the ridiculous tax rebate (millions to the rich, a pittance to the poor). <br /><br /> The price of buying gas is increasing the cost of everything we buy, although the oil companies are enjoying tremendous profits (Exxon/Mobil earned $340 BILLION last year). This residual effect has raised the prices on food, medication, clothes, everything. And it is not going to end, as I watch my gas station raise their prices almost everyday. How much poorer can we get? <br /><br /> The American people have less and less and George Bush says the state of our economy is good and is growing. It sure seems to me and most Americans that it's our personal debt that is growing. How many people are better off today than they were five years ago? Not me, or anyone I know. <br /><br /> It's all smoke and mirrors.   <bio>Bruce Schwartz is author of the bestselling novel, THE TWENTY-FIRST CENTURY, the story of a nationwide terrorist attack that ignites a race war seven days before the presidential election. His site <a href="http://www.thetwentyfirstcentury.com" >http://www.thetwentyfirstcentury.com</a> is offering a 3-day, 2-night vacation to one of 90 destinations for buying a copy of this timely novel.

    <content:encoded><![CDATA[Conservative web users argue that their views are being suppressed on <a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/youtube" rel="tag">youtube</a>. Even heavyweights like Republican Hollywood filmmaker David Zucker can be censored. <br /><br /> A short film by Zucker, who worked with and<a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/quot" rel="tag">quot</a>;<a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/scary+movie+4" rel="tag">Scary Movie 4</a>,andquot; andquot;Airplane!andquot; and other comedies, reportedly had been offered to the Republican Party for use as an ad, but it was declined. It appeared briefly on YouTube, until it was flagged as being andquot;inappropriate for some usersandquot;. <br /><br /> On the YouTube Web site, anyone can post videos. Above is a still from a montage of some of President Bush's speaking blunders posted as andquot;Stupid Bush.andquot; <br /><br /> <a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/michelle+malkin" rel="tag">Michelle Malkin</a> was first blogger to point out the leftist leanings of YouTube. <br /><br /> While bloggers played a role in the last presidential election, most advertising and message delivery still comes from campaigns, political parties and interest groups with enough money to bankroll a television blitz. But the YouTube revolution -- which includes dozens of sites such as <a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/google" rel="tag">Google</a> Video, <a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/revver" rel="tag">Revver</a> and <a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/metacafe" rel="tag">Metacafe</a> -- could turn that on its head. <br /><br /> If any teenager can put up a video for or against a candidate, and persuade other people to watch that video, the center of gravity could shift to masses of people with camcorders and passable computer skills. And if people increasingly distrust the mainstream media, they might be more receptive to messages created by ordinary folks. <br /><br /> andquot;YouTube is a campaign game-changer, shifting the dynamics of how to reach voters and build intimate relationships,andquot; says Julie Supan, senior marketing director for the small, California-based firm, which by one measure now runs the 39th most popular Web site. andquot;YouTube levels the playing field, allowing well-backed and less-known candidates to reach the same audience and share the same stage.andquot; <br /><br /> Even the seemingly simple act of posting footage of a politician's interview on andquot;Meet the Pressandquot; or andquot;The Daily Showandquot; has a viral quality, because it can be seen by far more people than watched during a single broadcast. <br /><br /> The internet web site You Tube is a free and open area for internet users to post and view all kinds of video content. While there is a terms of service (TOS) that users must agree to before posting You Tube videos, the truth is that there is no real submission approval process. While posting copyright protected content is forbidden under the TOS, there is no mechanism to automatically screen for copyright protected material. <br /><br /> Detection of such material is left to the You Tube community, but, from the incredible number of protected videos that have appeared on the site, it seems clear that the TOS are not rigorously enforced. Of course, it is the responsibility of the users, not You Tube, to post material that is legal. Nevertheless, there have been some legal challenges to You Tube videos posted in recent months. <br /><br /> Contributors to YouTube seem to lean to the left. There are videos of verbal stumbles labeled andquot;Stupid Bushandquot; and andquot;Bush Screwups,andquot; along with andquot;President Bush Drunk,andquot; a bit on CBS's andquot;Late Late Showandquot; that slowed down a tape of the president so it appeared as if he were slurring his words. Another shows Bush, in his Texas days, extending his middle finger. (One positive video features a group called the Right Brothers singing andquot;Bush Was Right.andquot;) <br /><br /> Any registered user can form a group, and the site includes one called andquot;Support George Bush,andquot; which says, andquot;Don't be afraid of your beliefs -- most campuses nationwide have a liberal bias anyway . . . as does the media.andquot; But it doesn't crack the top 100 in terms of membership, unlike andquot;Bush Sucks,andquot; which is designed andquot;for everyone who hates Bush and all his Republican cronies.andquot;  <bio>John Fair is a noted producer and author.

    <content:encoded><![CDATA[ <a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/learning+english+vocabulary" rel="tag">Learning English vocabulary</a> let alone the grammar that goes along with it can be difficult enough, but when presented with some of the common <a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/english+sayings" rel="tag">English sayings</a> that don't seem to make much sense can be cause for a little confusion. The confusion is especially prevalent in those learning how to speak the English language, so it is good to know what some of the <a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/common+sayings" rel="tag">common sayings</a> mean in order to not be left in the dark. <br /><br /> "I wouldn't touch that with a ten foot pole." <br /><br /> This saying is very common, especially if the "that" referred to in the sentence is something that is not liked. Maybe it is a garbage can or a person that is strongly disliked. Obviously, the person making the statement will not go within ten feet. <br /><br /> "I'm <a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/happy+as+a+clam" rel="tag">happy as a clam</a>." <br /><br /> A clam? How is a clam happy? A clam sits at the bottom of the ocean doing absolutely nothing. It doesn't have to go to work every day, it doesn't get sick, it doesn't know what stress is, and it gets to "chill out" at the bottom of the sea. That is true happiness. <br /><br /> "In order to get the <a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/handsome+prince" rel="tag">handsome prince</a>, you have to kiss a lot of toads." <br /><br /> This saying is referring to how many times a woman must survive bad relationships before she finds the right man to be in her life. She is referring to the men in the bad relationships as toads and the "one" the handsome prince. <br /><br /> "A <a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/clear+conscience" rel="tag">clear conscience</a> is usually the sign of a bad memory." <br /><br /> This saying rings very true in that those who have a clear conscience obviously do not remember the various indiscretions in their life. In other words, they are deceiving themselves to think they have nothing to feel guilty about. <br /><br /> "When everything's coming your way, you're in the wrong lane." <br /><br /> This saying in its literal sense makes one think of driving the wrong way on a one way street or highway. However, in reference to life, if everything negative is coming at the person at once, then they are doing something wrong or <a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/moving+in+the+wrong+direction" rel="tag">moving in the wrong direction</a>. <br /><br /> "Death is hereditary." <br /><br /> There is not a single person who has been immortal. This saying deals with the morbid fact that everyone dies, therefore it is considered "hereditary." <br /><br /> "When in doubt, tell the truth." <br /><br /> This saying, coined by Mark Twain, was his sarcastic way of telling liars who forgot or questioned the contents of their lie to simply tell the truth. <br /><br /> "Do not try to live forever. You will not succeed." <br /><br /> It is inevitable that we will not live forever, although there are so many people who hope for it and even do all they can to live forever. However, death is a part of life and those who try to conquer it will fail in their attempts. <br /><br /> "To bite off more than one can chew." <br /><br /> This saying refers to taking on a task that is just too big. If someone decides to climb a mountain and they've never climbed a mountain before, they have bitten off more than they can chew. <br /><br /> "Beat around the bush." <br /><br /> When beating around the bush, a person is avoiding talking about something unpleasant, so they don't refer directly to the subject at hand. <br /><br /> These are some of the most humorous and common English sayings that many encounter from day-to-day. Being familiar with them and knowing their meanings can help a person learning English understand what others are referring to when they use these sayings in their everyday language. Maybe then they can use the sayings in their own conversations.   <bio><a href="http://www.englishlink.com/index_ENG_HTML.asp" >http://www.englishlink.com/index_ENG_HTML.asp</a> Learn English in the Comfort of your own home! <a href="http://www.englishlink.com/aboutus_ENG_HTML.asp" >http://www.englishlink.com/aboutus_ENG_HTML.asp</a> Learning English online has never been so comfortable and easy.

    <content:encoded><![CDATA[ Larch <a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/arabinogalactan" rel="tag">Arabinogalactan</a> is produced from the wood of the <a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/larch+tree" rel="tag">larch tree</a>; it is in fact a polysaccharide powder. It is a fine off white powder that has a mild smell of pine trees, and tastes a little sweet. It is readily soluble and can be used with juice or water. It is made up of galactose, arabinose, and a trace of glucuronic acid. <br /><br /> The <a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/western+larch" rel="tag">Western Larch</a> is a member of the pine tree family. It grows naturally in the Pacific northwest of the USA. This makes it readily available for research and manufacture of dietary supplements. <br /><br /> It is a source of dietary fiber and helps boost your immune system. It has many uses: Larch Arabinogalactan has been found to help protect the body against cancer and it is also a powerful anti allergy and anti-inflammatory substance. <br /><br /> Limited research has been done on Larch Arabinogalactan, and there are many more uses that need to be looked into. Because it is easy to take, it is very convenient for the consumer to take as a diet supplement. <br /><br /> Another diet supplement, which also draws from natural sources, is the <a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/australian+bush" rel="tag">Australian Bush</a> <a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/plum" rel="tag">Plum</a>, or better known as the Black Current in Europe. These taste exceptionally good and can be used much the same manner as a regular berry. It is made into sweets and syrups like Ribena, as well as <a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/cough+lozenges" rel="tag">cough lozenges</a>. It has been used for many years for cough lozenges in England and due to its <a href="http://www.artwoo.com/tag/vitamin+c+content" rel="tag">vitamin C content</a>, is given to fight colds, coughs, and sore throats. <br /><br /> The Australian bush plum, as its name suggests, is native to Australia and grows from 6 inches to about 2 feet in height. It grows freely through the north and central parts of Australia. The aborigines have used these fruits since ancient times. They are also cultivated in England and known as black currents. <br /><br /> The Australian bush plum has the largest amount of vitamin C in any other food. As such, it is good for protecting the body against free radicals, which are produced by the liver when metabolism takes place. It is now used in conjunction with Glyconutrients to make a powerful antioxidant diet supplement. <br /><br /> Both these natural products are used with the Glyconutrients as diet supplements. The advantage is that they have little or no side effects, because they are all natural products. As more research is done, they will become more readily available and more uses will be found.
