…Also on the 25th, it made a landfall on the southwestern Florida coast. It weakened back into a tropical storm before moving back over the gulf and regaining its hurricane strength. It was then predicted to continued northward and eventually hit the Florida panhandle, but rather it moved westward and eventually landed right over New Orleans. Before it landed, it rapidly intensified into a category five hurricane, causing sustained winds of 175 miles per hour, and gusts reaching over 215 miles per hour…

I was more or less familiar with the script for Grease the musical long before I had seen it. You see, years before Grease the Broadway musical got big, the movie version of Grease made a huge splash in entertainment. I know that Grease the musical is the original, but somehow it seems like a more modern adaptation. After all, a generation of kids who were raised on the film Grease went on to see musical productions of it in college. It rarely works the other way. People almost never start with the musical Grease and move on to the movie.

Anyway, I first got a chance to see the Broadway production of Grease the musical during a recent trip to New York.

Having a great set of white teeth tells a lot about the person’s personality. It also helps us make an impression which is very important. But teens on the other hand should be very careful if they plan to whiten their teeth. Their teeth pearly whites might still be very fragile for such a string chemical to be introduced and might harm the teeth in the process. Even though teeth bleaching are beneficial, teeth must be fully erupted before going to a bleaching process. For those teens who have discolored teeth, the best action for them to do it to wait until they are old enough to get a teeth whitening procedure.

Your time is a valuable resource – both to your employer, business and family. Life Management!

When we treat every task we do as a priority it is easy to slip into bad habits that eat into our time but do not give us enough benefits. We run around ‘putting out fires’ and face every day’s activities as emergencies. Nothing is planned and we never have time to get things done properly. Identifying these areas and restructuring your routine and mindset enables you to optimize your time so you produce the most results with the least effort.

How does this work?

By identifying daily routines and your own body ‘rhythms’ you can try to plan the most energy consuming activities during your most productive times of the day and use your less productive times for activities that do not require the same amount of concentration or effort.

This applies equally well to all parts of our life – work and home. But it goes beyond that. Time management also helps you identify time (or energy) wasters. Perhaps there are activities that must be removed or delegated to someone else. By learning how to identify these we will not succumb to guilty feelings that we were not “up to the job” but we will conscientiously decide that to keep doing them is a waste of valuable resources – your time.

My dad was a cop, and he taught us a pretty simple and straightforward view of right and wrong. Basically, cops see the world as if it were a comic book. There are heroes and there are villains, and then there are civilians sitting on the sidelines. When I left the prosecutor’s office to become a Miami criminal attorney, he was devastated. He never thought he would have a son working as a Miami criminal lawyer. It took him months to be able to even speak to me again.

Nonetheless, my work as Miami criminal attorney has been good for both of us. I have been able to work with many people who, if situations would have been different, would never have gotten into trouble in the first place. Some of them are the victim of bad economic situations, others of incompetent police, and a few are the victims of frame ups.

Refining your writing process is key to your writing success

Many struggling writers are convinced there is a secret to the success of more confident writers. There is in fact a secret but it is one that you too can embrace to improve your writing. The simple truth is that refining your own personal writing process to your unique strengths and weaknesses can not only make writing easier it can also improve writing as well. Every writer’s writing process includes the same basic five elements: inventing, organizing, drafting, revising, and editing; however, in order for the writing process to improve writing that process must be tailored to fit the individual writer’s strengths and weaknesses.

Invention is one area that many beginning and struggling writers simply do not spend enough time on. Many beginning writers believe any time not spent writing is a waste of time. However, experienced writers know that the more time spent thinking about and preparing for the writing task then the less time that will need to be spent on actually writing. Invention might simply include thinking but writers can also use various methods to brainstorm from free writing to clustering. Experiment with many types of brainstorming and invention to determine which methods work best for you.

Organization is also a key part of writing preparation that many novice writers do not give proper attention. Depending on the length and complexity of the writing task this can take a lot of time or very little time, but do not overlook this important element.

Writing is of course an obvious part of the writing process, but many struggling writers simply overlook the fact that multiple drafts can make a big different in the quality of the work produced. The more time a writer allows between drafts then the more effective the drafting process can be.

Many poor writers believe that proofreading is the same as revising and editing, however experienced writers understand that revision is the reworking of content so that all ideas are fully expressed, transitions are clear between topics, and organization is effective. Experienced writers know that proofreading is more closely associated with editing but even then editing is more than simply proofreading for the simple surface errors of spelling and punctuation. Editing is looking at the structure of sentences and paragraphs as well as looking at grammar and word choice. Revision and editing should include at least two more draft but may require more depending on the writer’s weaknesses.

It is quite simple. Creating an individual writing process can improve writing and make writing easier as well. Scratch the surface of any successful writer and you will find an individual writing process.

Lack of sunshine and sufficient calcium in your diet can also cause hypercalcemia and this is one thing doctors don’t talk about. Sunshine produces vitamin D in your skin, which ends up in your small intestine and allows you to absorb large quantities of calcium, so that your body does not have to pull it out of your bones.

Sunshine also activates the pituitary gland to instruct the parathyroid gland to produce the hormone calcitonin. Calcitonin prevents your body from stealing calcium from your bones to feed your body.
