Dried Flowers - Good Feng Shui or Bad Feng Shui?
i was going through this feng shui article and came across this question that someone put forth to the feng shui expert.. i have done all efforts to research about dried flowers being bad luck so I emailed you.my sister-in-law was in my house and saw the dried roses I have kept and told me to throw it out because it is bad luck.but since they were given to me by a special someone,want to keep it.until last week, when another person came and saw it and said the same thing.i want to hear from you, should I get rid of it?
You mentioned the flowers were given to you by a special someone and you would like to keep them. Now, tell me, how can this possibly be bad feng shui? Ancient Feng Shui masters had a very beautiful saying - "Trust what your heart is thinking."
Ask your heart what it is thinking about your dried flower. If you have beautiful, healing energy connected to it, of course keep it, but do treat it in a special way. When placed on an altar, or dried in a special way, it becomes your very own feng shui symbol of something very dear to you, thus it will keep sending good energy as long as you take good care of it.
People have been drying plants and flowers since time immemorial for various healing purposes, was that bad feng shui? Lavender is a great feng shui flower that we use in dried form so often, is lavender bad feng shui? Of course, not!
The feng shui challenge with a dried flower is to keep its energy fresh and keep it special, as most of the time people keep it as a special memory. It is also important to let it go when you feel you do not need it anymore, and there is no specific timeframe here, it maybe one month for some and years for others. We all have different timeframes in dealing with the energy of powerful emotions and feelings.
If you decide to keep your dried flower, have a special place for it and do not get it lost in the dust of many items that are not needed, thus creating clutter.
now this what i call some useful info.. am a strong believer in feng shui,and i do know of many people who are the same... some more feng shui info and tips coming soon! do visit again..
Genie and the Taliban
Three guys: a Canadian, Osama bin Laden, and Uncle Sam are out walking together one day. They come across a lantern and a genie pops out of it.
"I will give each of you each one wish. That's three wishes total," says the genie.
The Canadian says, "I'm a farmer, my dad was a farmer, and my son will also farm. I want the land to be forever fertile in Canada."
With a blink of the genie's eye, *POOF* the land in Canada was forever made fertile for farming.
Bin Laden was amazed, so he said, "I want a wall around Afghanistan, so that no infidels, Jews, or Americans can come into our precious state."
Again, with a blink of the genie's eye, *POOF* there was a huge wall around Afghanistan.
"Uncle Sam" (A former civil engineer), asks, "I'm very curious. Please tell me more about this wall."
The Genie explains, "Well, it's about 15,000 feet high, 500 feet thick, and completely surrounds the country; nothing can get in or out - it's virtually impenetrable."
Uncle Sam says, "Fill it with water."
"I will give each of you each one wish. That's three wishes total," says the genie.
The Canadian says, "I'm a farmer, my dad was a farmer, and my son will also farm. I want the land to be forever fertile in Canada."

Simply Sophisticated - the Google Mini
Posted by Dave Armstrong, Product Marketing Manager, Google Enterprise
With Google Apps and Google Custom Search Business Edition we've been touting the benefits of hosted services. However, this doesn't mean we're trying to move everything to the cloud. Instead, we continue to focus on offering the right software architecture for a specific job - desktop software, appliance, client-server or hosted.
For example, we chose an appliance architecture for our Google Mini in order to simplify installation and upkeep, provide more complete control over how frequently content is indexed and to securely search both public and private content - simple yet sophisticated.
We recently added many new features to the Google Mini, and it continues to garner great accolades. In a recent ZDNet product review, Jonathan Bennett comments that of search products available today, the Google Mini is "...probably the simplest to get working, yet highly capable and configurable." Add that to the 4 star rating that the Mini received in a June PC Magazine review and you have a happy product manager and even happier customers.

Anne-Marie's Body Transformation

Anne Marie is well into the Funk Roberts 8 Week Transformation program that we are doing virtually. Her ultimate goal at the end of the 8 weeks is to be at 155 lbs and to lose inches off the chest, waist and hips. She is keeping a fantastic transformation dairy on her blog that i encourage you to read. http://amlapointe.blogspot.com/
She is just finishing week 2 - here is an excerpt.
Diet update: As per Funk's plan, I am eating 4-5 small meals a day - grazing. It’s difficult to get away from 3 square meals a day, but the increase of protein is good, and I haven't been hungry. I also just added an L-Glutamine supplement twice daily to my daily list of "things to do" and I feel like it's working already.
I was not sore at all this morning, and was very relaxed going to sleep last night. Today was my first pilates class since beginning weights last week. I've been taking the class twice a week (one day is with a stability ball, and the other day is with bands) for a year and half, and today I noticed a marked improvement in my planking, and I felt stronger overall, which was a wonderful feeling.
This evening, Shay and I headed to the gym to do the chest workout I didn't do last night, and some cardio. I kept my weights low, and took my time, as I do not want a repeat of Sunday! I am also going to ice my arms just in case.Tomorrow I have the day off from weights and cardio to let my muscles re-coup. And I'll probably do some light stretching.
