How are Documents Authenticated in Civil Lawsuits

by Manuel Salvacion

Documents such as records, letters, bills, contracts, and similar writing form part of evidence in many lawsuits. In court, the best evidence rule requires that when a document is offered as evidence, the original document or writing has to be produced and submitted. To be admitted as evidence, a document has to be properly identified or authenticated.

In dealing with documentary evidence, the following things must be considered:

• Parole evidence – This is a principle in the common law of contracts which presumes that a written contract embodies the complete agreement between parties. As a rule, it forbids the introduction of ‘extrinsic’ information or external communication between parties, other than what is contained in the document.

• Best evidence – The issue in documentary evidence is competency, Hence, the best evidence rule in documents means the ‘the best and topmost form of evidence that can be produced for verification’.

• Authentication

• Hearsay – Based on legal definition, hearsay is evidence not proceeding from the personal knowledge of the witness, but is from the mere repetition of what he has heard others say.

What is Authentication?

Authentication is a rule that requires evidence to be sufficient to support a finding that the matter in question is what its proponent claims. This means that evidence must be proven genuine to be admissible.

Both parties in a trial can authenticate documentary evidence in much the same way as it can authenticate other real evidence. These are the common methods of document authentication:

• A witness, who is present during the signing of the document, can identify and attest to the existence of the document.

• A non-expert witness who is familiar with the handwriting or signature of the person, who signed the document, can also testify.


• An expert, a document examiner, who can compare handwriting samples and give his opinion regarding the document

• By so-called “trier of fact,” in which the jury or the judge would compare a known example of a signature with the signature on a disputed document

• Records of business transactions can be identified and authenticated by the custodian of the records.

• Certified copies of public records, official documents, and newspapers are self-authenticating documents that do not require outside authentication to be admitted as court evidence.

• Ancient documents also do not require outside authentication to be used as evidence. When presented with a corroborating circumstances or possession, ancient documents can be admitted as evidence in a trial.

Written documents when presented as evidence in courts are called documentary evidence. They form part of the basis for the resolution of cases.

However, certain documents do not require validation to be considered as original documents. Self-authenticating documents or documents that do not require outside authentication are the following:

1. acknowledge documents to prove receipt of such

2. some commercial paper and related documents

3. certificates of business records

4. certified copies of public records

5. newspapers

6. official documents

7. periodicals

8. trade inscriptions

Why Document Authentication is Necessary

If properly authenticated, documents can provide the courts the necessary information and help a judge or jury evaluate a case. Proper documents also provide resolution of the issue under question. In civil litigations, documentary evidence is an important part in determining the outcome of a case.

Law Of Attraction - A Basic Understanding

By Antonio Thornton
The Law of Attraction truly cannot be defined by any single definition. It has to do with energy and a force that's so powerful and so mystifying that words wouldn't do it justice.

Some definitions refer to the law of attraction as karma or the golden rule. You may have heard people say, "you get what you give…"; "what goes around, comes around…"; "karma"; "do unto others" and a host of others.

They're all right.

However, when I'm asked, "What is the Law of Attraction?", I like to summarize it in two 3-word phrases: "Like Attracts Like" and "Thoughts Become Things."

Like Attracts Like

Everything in the universe is composed of energy. If you were to take a peek inside your body, you'd see that you're made up of organs. With magnification, you'll see that your organs are made up of tissues. With even more magnification, you'd see that your tissues are made of cells; your cells are made of molecules; and your molecules are made of atoms. You may remember this from science class.

These atoms are made of even smaller ‘components' called electrons, neutrons, and protons. Here's where science class got a little fuzzy for me. At the time I learned this, we were taught that the electrons, protons and neutrons were the smallest units of matter and this is where things stopped. What they didn't tell us is that these ‘units of matter' are made of energy. More accurately stated, they ARE energy.

So in short, everything is made of energy. The computer you're using, or the newspaper you're reading this in…everything. And what's amazing is that these different energies have their own vibrational resonance. For this illustration, we'll call vibrational resonance "frequency" – just like a radio station frequency.

So as this energy is emitting its frequency, there are other energies that are on the same frequency and they tend to draw towards one another.

If you were to tune your radio to 101.9 you would only be able to hear what's on the 101.9 frequency, which is being emitted from the 101.9 radio tower. It's the same with energy.

Have you ever sat next to someone and you ‘just didn't feel right'? There may have been nothing ‘wrong' with the person, but for some reason you just felt uncomfortable. It was because at that time, your energy was on a ‘different frequency' as the person sitting next to you. Your energies clashed and it made you feel uncomfortable.

You will attract to you what you embody or what you are "like," in other words. If you're gloomy, you'll attract gloomy people. And if you're happy and cheerful, you'll attract happy, cheerful people (or at least, they'll become happy and cheerful because of YOU).

If you feel broke, you'll attract more of being "broke," because it's a match to you, to your energy. And if you feel prosperous, you will attract situations to help you be prosperous.

Thoughts Become Things

The other thing about the Law Of Attraction is that thoughts really do become things.

This can also be summed up more scientifically by the expression, "Energy is neither created, nor destroyed." So rephrasing the aforementioned statement, "If you put a loving a caring energy into the Universe, that same energy will be returned to you.

So the thoughts (energy) you put out will be returned to you (or ‘created' in your reality)

Everything starts as a thought. That computer you're reading this on originated, at its essence, as the thought of Konrad Zuse, who invented the very first working programmable computer in 1941. Others, like Steve Jobs, believed computers could be accessible to anyone in their homes. And Zuse and Jobs began to manifest those realities for themselves before most thought they were "possible."

LOA is at the essence of everything that exists today. When you think of something you want AND you believe it can come, you will attract it to you. It will ultimately become your reality.

THE SECRET - How it Applies to Real Estate Investing

By Charrissa Cawley
Not getting results in your business? Are you just starting out as a real estate investor? Maybe you’ve been working at it for awhile and attended every seminar out there, read every book and you are still not getting the results that you were hoping for? Whatever your situation is with your business, there is one thing that you need to learn and understand in order to succeed; and that is “The Secret”.

The Secret is really quite simple, and this is not a new concept. In fact, it has been around since time began. The Secret is simply the law of attraction. The law of attraction is the law that determines exactly what you will get in your life because like attracts like. Your thoughts, the things that you desire, and the circumstances that you think about and feel, are the things, feelings and circumstances that you will attract in life. Like a magnet, you are attracting everything in your life with the thoughts in your own head. Your thoughts directly affect your actions and your actions affect your bottom line results.

The law of attraction is one of the most powerful laws in the universe. The law of attraction says that you attract everything that happens in your own life and the results that you have had up until now as well as the results that you will have in the future. Everything that is occurring in your life is due to this powerful law of attraction.

So, how can you apply The Secret and the law of attraction to your career and your real estate investing business? That’s very simple. Whatever you want out of your business, you can achieve once you have accepted the power that you have in your own mind.

You can apply the laws to your real estate investing business. Visualize your future living the lifestyle that you desire. Picture yourself living in that incredible dream house that you want, being able to afford that sports car that you have always wanted, and having the ability to send your children to the best private schools. Visualize your real estate business giving you everything that you want out of life. Whatever you want out of life, whatever wealth and prosperity looks like to you, picture it, visualize every last detail of it, and most importantly, believe it.

Once you have a picture in your head and are able to visualize yourself in the exact situation that you want, you must believe that you will achieve it and start to behave as if you are already living that life. The feelings that you put out about your future, will attract those feelings into existence because of the law of attraction.

Now that you know what you want to achieve with your real estate investing business, start small by focusing on your next property acquisition. Visualize the exact details and the type of property that you want to find. Focus on what it looks like, where it is located, what the neighborhood looks like. Visualize the monthly passive income this property will bring into your life and what this income will do for you and your family.

Believe it or not, because of the law of attraction, the universe will actually rearrange itself in order to bring your thoughts into existence, and that is the power of The Secret. What you call into existence, the thoughts that you put out, will attract more of the same to you. You may not know how it is going to happen, but you do not need to worry yourself about these details. You need to trust yourself and your instincts because the law of attraction is a powerful law and you will attract what you are projecting.

You might even surprise yourself when you find that perfect property, the one that you have been visualizing. But realize that this is not a coincidence; it is the law of attraction at work.

The Secret can be used when it comes to every aspect of your real estate investing business. Are you looking for a buyer for one of your properties? Visualize that buyer writing you a check for the amount you are hoping to sell the property for. Are you planning a renovation on a property? Visualize the details and how it will look when you are finished; imagine how it will feel when you rent the property to those perfect tenants.

Take this a step further and start applying The Secret to all aspects of your real estate investing business. Do you see yourself owning hundreds of properties, or only a few? Visualize what you want from your business, focus on it, and live your life as if your business has already reached the level that you expect of it. The law of attraction will deliver to you, exactly what you expect. Before you know it, after applying these principles to your life, you will be living the life you always dreamed of, all because of knowing The Secret.

Trust me…These principles have changed my life and if you look at this as if it’s hokey, it’s too good to be true, it’s ridiculous, you will continue to get what you have always gotten and never get from where you are now to where you wish to be. However, if you are open-minded and simply apply these laws in your own life, you will be blessed beyond your dreams. Try it and see for yourself!

Don't Attempt Bankruptcy Without Knowing Bankruptcy Law

By Jon Arnold
If you think that you have nothing now, the new bankruptcy laws could even shrink that! The new bankruptcy law overhauls the laws that were modified in 1978. It not only tightens the requirements for those who want to file for bankruptcy but for their attorneys as well.

These are several of the major changes that were initiated under the new bankruptcy law:





“Means Test” – You now have to show that you are not abusing the use of bankruptcy. This test calculates what you make per month minus certain expenses that are allowed. The “median income” will vary from state to state. If you fail the “means test’, then you must file for Chapter 13 bankruptcy.


Expense allowances – Guidelines are put forth by the IRS for allowable expenses, and they are stingy. The food allowance is approximately $200 a month, and the housing allowance is approximate $800 a month.


Residency requirements – There are state and federal bankruptcy laws, and some state laws are more lenient than others. Texas and Florida have very generous “homestead allowances”. The new bankruptcy law discourages you to look around for the best deal. You are not permitted to file for bankruptcy in a more favorable state unless you have resided there for a minimum of two years.


Mandatory credit counseling – Another change that came with the new bankruptcy law is that you have to take a credit counseling course that has been approved within 180 days of filing for bankruptcy. Sorry to say, this is not a free course. The cost of this course is approximately $75.00.


More paperwork – In order to prove that bankruptcy is necessary, the consumer will have to present much more documentation. Such things a debtor must provide are: a list of all unsecured and secured creditors, proof of taking the credit counseling course, a detailed list of one’s expenses and monthly income, liabilities and assets, the most recent tax return, photo ID and pay stubs.


Hefty legal fees – A bankruptcy attorney must now “certify” that their client’s figures are accurate. If they prove not to be, the lawyer as well as the client may face sanctions. This means that your attorney must do more investigating and fact-checking to make sure your information as well as his certification is above-board.



Is it best to have a bankruptcy attorney when and if it comes time to file for bankruptcy? There is certainly no legal requirement stating that you have to retain a lawyer. However, you would be very foolish not to do so. If you choose to file on your own, and forget to file certain documents, your case can be subject to dismissal and you will need to start again from the very beginning. As an example, a couple recently tried to file for bankruptcy online. They were not exactly sure if we should have filed jointly or just the husband. They were doing it on their own and really goofed things up and now they are paying for it! Please do not do this in an attempt to save some money because it will only come back to haunt you in the end. It is in your best interest to have an experienced bankruptcy attorney working for you.

Online Advertising Traffic and the First Law of Web Surfing

By Joel Walsh
Hint: don't send send your online advertising traffic to your homepage.



How do you convert online advertising traffic into customers? The key is a phenomenon of human behavior that only comes into play on the web.

You won't read about this phenomenon in books or articles on general principles of advertising or direct marketing. In fact, traditional advertising professionals and direct marketers often create only so-so online advertising campaigns simply because they've never heard of this phenomenon, even though it's essentially the first law of human web surfing behavior.
How to convert your online advertising traffic into customers

Ready to find out what that all-important first law of web surfing is? Prepare to be not very amazed. You see, everyone who surfs the web already knows about this phenomenon of human behavior because we all do it--even you.
So here it is, the first law of human web surfing behavior, which you absolutely must take into account when marketing your website: While surfing the web, almost everyone will hit the "back" button if they think there's a chance--even a small chance-- they've come to the wrong web page.


The corollary to this law of web surfing behavior: Anyone who clicks through to your site via an online advertising link needs to know they've arrived at the right place as soon as they get there.
Immediately. Within a second. From a click glance. Without having to read anything. The average human attention span on the web has been measured at eight seconds, and you'll have already lost a few seconds while the page downloaded.

The Key(word) to Converting Advertisement-Clickers into Customers

How do you make absolutely sure visitors feel like they've arrived in the right place?
Make the title and first heading of your landing page (the page on which a visitor "lands" after clicking on an advertisement) the same as the headline of the advertisement that brought your visitor there. If the landing page links to a banner (image) advertisement, use the same pictures and color scheme as the advertisement.
The landing page absolutely must immediately remind the visitor of the advertisement.
The advertisements, in turn, must flow logically from the keywords they are targeting. Even if your advertisements are appearing on websites rather than search engine results, you need to be thinking in terms of the keywords people are using to search for your product in order to speak the language of your prospective customers.
That's why it is very important both your advertisement and landing page incorporate the target keyword prominently, in headings as well as the page body. That's also why it's so important you don't send your visitors from online advertising to your homepage--it's unlikely you could optimize your homepage for all your possible advertisements. Visitors who arrive via advertising need to land on a special "landing page," or they may crash and leave your site.


Conversions: your advertising campaign's goal
But what happens once visitors land on your site and decide to stay more than ten seconds? It's no use if they just hang around. They need to convert.

Important definition: In online advertising parlance, saying a website visitor "converts," means he or she has taken a desired action toward becoming a customer, either 1) buying something or 2) contacting you for more information, thereby becoming a lead.


The percentage of visitors who convert out of the total number of visitors who arrive at your page is the conversion rate. Your goal is to get this rate as high possible. You do that by finding the right message to display on your landing page, and also by targeting the advertising so you are getting visitors who are most likely to convert.

In order to get your visitors to convert once they arrive, you need to make sure they have a clear path to conversion from the landing page. The simpler the path, the better--a winding road might lose some potential customers. This conversion path could be as simple as a "buy now" button or a contact form, or as complex as a multi-step shopping cart with required registration with required email confirmation to scare away those who are not truly devoted buyers.

Targeting your traffic

What you show visitors who arrive at your site is only half the equation. The visitors themselves are the other. As with everything in life, you can't convert a sow's ear into a silk purse. In this case, the sow's ear is paid traffic that is not targeted, or is coming from popunders or other forced viewing, or is just plain faked (there is software specifically designed to emulate human visitors so fraudsters can sell the "traffic").


Even in the best of cases, some traffic converts better than others. Generally speaking, visitors who are looking for you are the likeliest to convert, so conversion rates tend to be highest from advertising on search engines. Conversion rates tend to be lower from advertising on websites (so-called "content" or "contextual" advertising).

Conversion rates are lower still on advertising on website popups, and lowest of all on so-called adware (programs that display popups on a user's computer; the people who sell this advertising often label it "targeted traffic"). Sending emails that consist of nothing but your advertisement, even if you've skirted the legal definition of spam, is not worth the bad will and damage to your brand.
Preaching to non-converting online advertising traffic
A significant percentage of visitors, maybe a majority, will never just click "buy now." How do you reach them?
Many people simply will never make a purchase without speaking to a salesperson first. For them, provide a convenient contact form, as well as a live chat option--if you can afford the time and expense--your email, and a telephone number. A telephone number is especially important since there are some visitors who will never convert without hearing the voice of someone on your end.


For visitors who are not ready to convert immediately, you should have informational articles, "about us" pages or FAQs ready to help them make up their minds.

For visitors who simply will not be ready to convert today, give a reason to bookmark your page. Good articles. A special offer. A newsletter to sign up for. Free advice.

Just make sure you don't place these alternative non-converting options in too prominent a position, or you'll risk distracting prospective customers. A few paragraphs up from the very bottom of the page is a good place to catch people who are interested in you enough to read the entire page, but still haven't converted. The very bottom of the page should be reserved for a conversion option for all the prospective customers accustomed to scrolling to the bottom of the page to get a quick overview.

After all, if you want your visitors from online advertising traffic to convert into customers, shouldn't you at least make it easy for them?

The Law of the wines (intoxicants) in the Quran

By Safaa Abdel-Aziz
Verse 5:93 says that Allah loves the generous which do deeds of righteousness, guard themselves from evil and believe in Allah, Prophet Muhammad and follow the Quran.

This verse was revealed before the wines (intoxicants) were made unlawful.
Their wine was made from unripe dates, split unripe dates and dates
Some of the believers died before the law of forbidden the alcoholics.
Then Allah revealed about a group of men from the Emigrants and the Helpers who asked the Prophet Muhammad:
“What shall happen to those of us who died drinking intoxicant drinks before they were made unlawful”,
The verse gave the answer:
There shall be no sin imputed unto those who believe in Allah, Muhammad and the Quran and do good works
That is between them and their Lord
For what they may have eaten in the past
For what they have drunk in the past before intoxicants were made unlawful, whether those who did it are dead or still living.
So be mindful of your duty to Allah, if they warded off disbelief, idolatry and indecencies, and do good works
That is between them and their Lord; and again:
Be mindful of your duty ward off making intoxicants lawful after they were made unlawful;
This address is to the believers who are still living, and believe in the unlawfulness of intoxicant; and once again:
Be mindful of your duty ward off drinking it, and do right leave the drinking of it. Allah loves the good for avoiding drinking intoxicants; this relates to those who were still alive and who drunk intoxicants before they were made unlawful.
Allah loves the generous which do deeds of righteousness, guard themselves from evil and believe in Allah, Prophet Muhammad and follow the Quran.
Allah loves the generous, means that He will reward them.
Herein, the word translated as generous, good or good doer is "Moh-se-neen" in Arabic.
The noun of the word "Moh-se-neen" is "Ihsan".
One asked the Prophet Muhammad: "what is Ihsan"
Muhammad said: to worship Allah as if you see him, if you can not, then worship Allah you see you all the time"!
Hence, "Ihsan" has to degree:
The first degree is that you act as if you see your LORD who creates you.
This is the first class of faith. If your faith could not attain the first degree, then,
The second degree is that you act and know that your LORD who Creates you Sees you all the time.
See in your mind's eye what if mankind act while they know that their Creator Sees and Hears them all the time!
On the other hand, this deep connotations of the Arabic word "Moh-se-neen" and "Ihsan" illustrate how poor are their English translations!

Verse 5:93 in different translations:

QARIB:
no blame shall be attached to those who believe and did good works in regard to any food they have eaten, so long as they ward off (the forbidden) and believe, and do good deeds, then they fear and believe, and again, so long as they fear and do fine deeds. Allah loves the generous.

SHAKIR:
on those who believe and do good there is no blame for what they eat, when they are careful (of their duty) and believe and do good deeds, then they are careful (of their duty) and believe, then they are careful (of their duty) and do good (to others), and Allah loves those who do good (to others)

PICKTHAL:
There shall be no sin (imputed) unto those who believe and do good works for what they may have eaten (in the past). So be mindful of your duty (to Allah), and believe, and do good works; and again: be mindful of your duty, and believe; and once again: be mindful of your duty, and do right. Allah loveth the good.

YUSUFALI:
On those who believe and do deeds of righteousness there is no blame for what they ate (in the past), when they guard themselves from evil, and believe, and do deeds of righteousness,- (or) again, guard themselves from evil and believe,- (or) again, guard themselves from evil and do good. For Allah loveth those who do good.

Handling One of Those Days Through the Law of Attraction

By: Beth McCain
So you're just living your wonderful Law of Attraction life and…bingo! You start to have one of those days. You can't even imagine that you created such a day for yourself but here it is, staring you in the face. The kids are sick, the dog just threw up on the carpet, and your boss is calling you every five minutes to find out when are you going to be there. Here are a few tips on how to handle one of those days the Law of Attraction way.

Don't be too hard on yourself. When a day comes where you simply can't fathom that you had anything to do with attracting, relax and don't blame yourself. Somewhere along the line some thoughts and emotions of yours created this particular day, but by just recognizing that, you can change your future days. The key is how you handle this one. Pamper yourself. Listen to some music that will put you in a better emotional space, or find yourself a treat and just spoil yourself.

Ride the rest of the day with balance. If you can't get happy, just ride out the day. Stay in a zone where you can remain as serene as possible. When something seemingly bad happens, don't react. Does this mean you have to be an unemotional stone? No, just don't react to your day. Stay as centered as possible and let it all roll off your back.

Grab a small notebook and write a thankful log. Find things to be thankful for. This will raise up your vibrations and help you pull out of your hard day. Write down each thankful thought you have. It can be as simple as that you had enough milk for the cereal that morning. Find anything to be thankful for and you will see that there is good in your day.

Change the outcome. When you have unwanted experiences over and over again in the same day, and you would love to change them, then change them. Revisit the experiences in your mind and change them into how you would have wanted them to have turned out. This will help the Universe to realize that you are changing all the 'hard' in your days and will imagine them better. The Universe will pick up on this and your future days will be 'hard' free.

Find little signs from the Universe that, even though you are having a tough day, prove the Universe is still working on your desires. Signs and indicators are a great way to know that you are not alone. The Universe is there to provide all that you desire as long as you focus on what it is that you want. The Universe will provide what you focus on, even if it is a 'don't want' but it is always there to give you what you focus on. Do your best to start your day over again if it seems to be starting out rough. You can start your day over and over again throughout a day. You can always have a great day if you make the conscious effort to have a wonderful day.

And if you just can't seem to pick yourself up, float. Instead of swimming against the current just stop swimming and float into a space that you are comfortable with; a place where your desires await you. Just relax and let go, because as you know tomorrow is another day to create and the Law of Attraction will always help you out with creation.

Concentrate on the good days versus your hard days, and you will soon notice many more good days. And your hard days will disappear through Law of Attraction application.

Britney Spears and the Law of Attraction

By: Lee McCain
Britney Spears. Oh the tongue-wagging that goes on in supermarket checkout lines these days as moms across America breathe a collective sigh, thankful (with the possible exception of the fame and the money) that Miss Spears is somebody else's problem. Thankful that their daughters, while troublesome in their own right, haven't reached the melting point of a Spears kid. (Little sister Jamie Lynn, 16, is reportedly expecting another little Spears.)

Aren't we just full of ourselves; such great parents are we!

And didn't you just love it when Momma Spears got her parenting book unceremoniously yanked from publication? Oh, the irony.

The most ironic thing, however, has absolutely nothing to do with the Spears family and what we perceive to be (actually, judge) their shortcomings. As a society, we are collectively making sport of their pain and are gleefully judging each failing move they make in order to validate and overlook our own mistake-filled worlds. This is classic Law of Attraction, but not in a good way.

Britney can be forgiven. She is a child who has grown up in a spotlight of cruelty, as everyone from the media, bus drivers, foreign governments, and fast food workers have "scornfully" weighed in on every negative stumble she has taken, impatient for the next chapter. It's all nothing more than a heaping Roman helping of bread and circuses to them; to Britney Spears, it is her life.

So who or what is a Britney Spears? She is, like any of us, a product of all that surrounds her. She is human, and she is hurting. She is immature and foolish sometimes, and her demons are worn upon her sleeve for all to see. This makes her more honest than most. She tries, but without a level support system, she oftentimes fails. (That's the part we like; it makes us feel so much better about ourselves!)

Britney Spears, besides fighting a hostile media and disingenuousness all around her, is also fighting a terrible disease. Whether she wins the fight, or is too tired to fight any longer, she remains in the boxing ring of alcoholism and drug abuse. I don't think she even tries to hide it anymore.

We would look at her (judge her) in an entirely different light were she afflicted with cancer or leukemia; you know, an approvable disease. But no matter how much the medical field classifies substance abuse as a disease, it is still looked down upon and only becomes a disease when it is our own, or someone's we care about.

So what is the answer, both for Britney as well as for us? Because to suggest the insatiable thirst of enjoying ringside seats with the downfall of the Spears family as the main event as anything but a two-way street is completely dishonest. We need Britney to fall, just as much as she needs us to take her by the hand and help her off the ground. Left to its own devices, this scenario has just one end, and look no farther than Anna Nicole Smith or Elvis if you want to know what that is. Then, when that happens, we'll all enjoy 24-hour news cycle coverage as we again cluck our tongues and judge some more.

There is another alternative, however. And it will salve both sides of this sick fence.

The Law of Attraction promises that whatever we desire, as long as the feelings and thoughts are directed and true, that the Universe will provide us with whatever we want.

We have all wanted what we have gotten with the ongoing Spears train wreck, and this is true on both sides. We have attracted this, and so has Britney, her sister, their mother, all of the boyfriends, and all of the hangers-on who have profited from their misery. We have all been excellent attractors, and continue to do so as the game gets ratcheted up to the point that the next stop will be the Los Angeles County Coroners Office. How many have thought when Britney has permanently left the stage, Jamie Lynn Spears is waiting in the wings to assume the starring role. Haven't we all had enough of this?

We deserve better of ourselves, and those two wonderful girls and their families deserve better, too. Let's stop this now. We collectively created it; can we not turn it around and each enjoy life as it is meant to be enjoyed?

It's not too late, and if by providence the Spears sisters read this article, please, girls, take your power back and refuse to be a part of this putrid pantomime and live! Live your lives and focus on your wonderful babies, your most beautiful creations ever. Use what the Universe gave you and live the Law of Attraction in a positive way. You've already proven how talented you are when it comes to manifesting the Law of Attraction; now it's time to use it positively and reclaim your lives.

We can also want this for them, can't we? We can want and think and feel the thoughts that will help them manifest this wonderful gift. Can't we do that for them? And if not for them, can't we wish it for their children?

The Law of Attraction is everyone's gift from the Universe, and it is no less a gift for the girls who seemingly already have everything. The Law of Attraction is for Britney, too.

The Property Law That Will Affect Your House Sale

Buying a house was never really designed to be a fun process. Any enjoyment you get from it will probably come from looking at different properties and picking where you want to live for the next few years.

After you have found your perfect home, it's time for property law to swing into action. The process of getting the purchase legally completed is called conveyancing, and it can be pretty complicated.

You could do it yourself in theory. But most people just hire someone to do it for them, either a solicitor or a licensed conveyancer. Here's a handy property guide into the whole process, how to pick the right person who understands property law, and how it will affect you.

Picking the right legal representative is essential to making your house purchase as smooth a process as possible. If you already have a solicitor you know and trust, ask if their firm does conveyancing, or if they can recommend someone.

Solicitors are regulated by the Law Society and covered by a hefty indemnity insurance policy, in case they make a mistake that leaves you out of pocket. That's the upside – the downside is that they may see property law as boring work. It's certainly not as exciting as some other types of law. Some solicitors use conveyancing to keep a good cash flow in the business, but don't place a high priority on it.

If you want a guaranteed expert, then turn to a licensed conveyancer. These people are not fully qualified solicitors, but they have studied and understand property law and the process of buying and selling a house. All they do day in day out is house transactions. And that means they could be more focused than a general firm of solicitors… although if any legal problems outside of the purchase process crop up, they will have to refer you to a solicitor for help.

Conveyancers also tend to charge a little less. Fees from some firms can be as low as a couple of hundred pounds, whereas solicitors tend to charge a bit more. If you want the biggest bargain you can get and you're not bothered about seeing someone in person, there are now internet conveyancing firms.

Don't forget that there are extra charges on top of their fees. These typically include search charges, a land registry fee and any stamp duty on the property.

So once you've picked the right person to guide you through the maze of property law, and you've had an offer accepted on a property, the process begins.

Your legal representative will look over the draft contract drawn up by the seller's solicitor. It will state the particulars and conditions of the sale. They will also make a series of enquiries related to issues such as boundary disputes, restrictive covenants and rights of way on the property.

The seller will be sent a property information form to fill out. This should tally with what you think you're buying, including fixtures and fittings.

And of course your solicitor or conveyancer will obtain the title deed and land registry certificate, and do the relevant local searches. They will also check the seller does actually own the property and isn't bankrupt!

Once this has been finished you will be advised to sign the draft contract, exchange it, and arrange for completion (usually the day you move house).

There's a lot to be across. And while you could do it yourself to save a few quid, there's a lot of property law to navigate, and you might be better off hiring an expert to do it for you.

Disobeying natural law

By: Mohammed Walji
Freedom is a Western concept. Freedom of expression, association, economic choice, and freedom from arbitrary rule and violence is essential. Part of the greatness of civilization is the containment of uncivilized behavior and instincts. Culture, guilt, shame, quality, expectations – all these and more play decisive roles in shaping behavior. Natural law, which few discuss and fewer know about, is a key basis for Western civilization. Yet the media; the elite; the educational experts [an ironic oxymoron there]; and even the church and most parents have no idea what this important concept means. Hence the rise of everything from gay sex in public, to Britney Spears kissing Madonna on stage, to the decline of real ‘Conservatism’ in public affairs. Ignoring natural law and high standards leads to social degeneration.

What is natural law and why should anyone care? Natural law is the application of reality and common sense to our world. In short the reality of our existence gives us a framework or set of rules to live by. Contravening or breaking that reality or its rules will cause problems. Reality is not something that social engineers; toothy politicians; rich entertainers; or cultish freaks can bend to their will, any more than a human can reverse the incoming oceanic tides. Natural law is not an abstract metaphysical discussion – it is rooted in the here and now.

Why should you care? You should care if you believe in civilization; higher culture; intelligence and strong families. You should care if you are tired of a political system that glorifies degenerate and obscene behavior. You should care if you are worried about the ill-effects of runaway feminism; gay rights; Islamic intolerance; broken families; and rising crime rates – all funded by tax dollars. You should care if you recognize that these issues and many others are manifestations of ‘systemic’ failure. To put it more simply you should care if the disturbing social trends we see around us, mean that natural law premised upon common sense is in decline.

Natural law is not a concept of irrationality. It is made up of three key ideas that have helped Western civilization develop. First there are rational laws to explain the makeup of the universe. Second morality and ethics should reflect the make up of these laws. Third the creation and maintenance of society should reflect natural and moral law.

The idea that the universe operated in a rational ‘lawful’ fashion comes from the Greeks. The ancient Greek’s believed that the universe was governed by eternal and unchangeable laws. Since this universe was natural and rational society should reflect these natural laws. Since humans are endowed with reason they could discover and obey these natural laws that managed reality. For the Greeks, since humans could use logic in their lives they could ‘follow nature’. The most admired and detailed philosophers in the ancient Greek world of the above ideas were the ‘Stoics’, whose approach to living and developing society gave rise to ‘Stoicism’ which greatly influenced Roman and later Western European thought.

The Christian philosophers of the middle ages took the ‘Stoic’ idea of natural law and built on it. The greatest of these thinkers was the 13th century theologian Thomas Aquinas. For Aquinas natural law is part of the eternal law of God [‘the reason of divine wisdom’]. Humans can understand God’s natural law through reason to create a society of ‘positive laws’. Human [or positive law], is the application of natural law to particular social circumstances. It sounds complicated but the framework is pretty simple to understand. Like the Stoics, Aquinas believed that a positive law which violates a natural law is not true law – but a human lie that would create societal problems.

Aquinas’ ideas were enhanced by thinkers during the Western Enlightenment. The 17th-century Dutch legal theorist Grotius believed that humans by nature are not only rational and sane, but social. He felt that humans would only develop rules that were intelligent and ‘natural’, not ones that were counterproductive and unnatural. By so doing humans can regulate interaction and live in relative harmony with one another. From this argument, Grotius developed the first comprehensive theory of international law.

From Grotius’ ideas it was but a short step to the idea of a ‘natural right’. The 17th century political scientist John Locke argued that human beings in the state of nature are free but usually quite unequal, leading to a tyranny by the few over the many. When a human enters society he should only surrender those rights which are necessary for his own security and to help provide harmony for the common good [Grotius’ idea]. According to Locke a man’s natural rights should never be given up and these would include; private property rights; the right to safety from terror or force; and the right of self-determination. Locke’s ideas on natural rights theory provided a philosophical basis for both the American and French revolutions. Thomas Jefferson used the natural law theory to justify his trinity of ‘inalienable rights’ [life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness], which were stated in the United States Declaration of Independence.

With the rise of ‘post-modern’ theory and moral relativity the certitude of Locke, Grotius, Aquinas, St. Augustine, the Stoics, Seneca and others has fallen into disrepute. How is this relevant in our world? The American Declaration of Independence is correct – life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness should be the natural right of any man or woman. Yet this does not mean that the US founding fathers were advocating hedonism. Quite the contrary.

Natural rights to property, person, and self-determination mean: a limitation on government and what they can steal; security and social peace; strong families to nurture culture; a reduction in social pathology, deviancy, crime and anti-social behavior; and lastly a respect for culture mores and institutions that generate the above and lead to high culture and cultural flowering.

None of those ideals are a part of the social-political discussion today in any real sense. Gays and feminists unrelentingly attack the family. Private property theft now approaches 50% of earned income. Living standards have doubled in the past 50 years but so has crime. Brutally pathetic low cultures have formed entrapping whites, blacks, other minorities and the insecure, uncaring or lazy. Anti-social behavior from clothing to Islamic intolerance should now not only be tolerated but protected. All of these destroy natural rights, and all are funded and supported in part by governments; politicians and their associated power bases of lobby and money support.

History never exactly repeats itself, but perhaps brilliant minds before our age have a thing or two to teach us about what makes a society rich in the spiritual, intellectual and material worlds we inhabit. Repeating past mistakes and ignoring natural law indicates a certain type of collective social insanity has achieved power. It is just remarkably sad how Jefferson’s trinity, and the moral precepts of men like Aquinas, Locke and Grotius are submerged in the immoral post modern relativity which passes for intelligent political discourse.

Law of Attraction: An Easy Way To Change Your Negative Vibration Into A Positive One

Author: Janeen Clark

The basis of the Law of Attraction is that you attract things and circumstances that are operating at the same vibrational level that your thoughts are.

The higher that you keep your mental vibration, the better things you can bring to yourself that are also at that higher vibrational level. For instance, when you are start out having a really great day - things just seem to fall into place and keep getting better. However, it works the opposite way as well. When you are having a bad day and are vibrating at a lower level, one bad thing after another seems to occur.

So obviously the trick is to do everything in your power to stay at a higher vibrational level. Sounds easy enough, but as you know, sometimes hard to put into practice in everyday life. It sounds great to have someone tell you just think positive but how do you do that after you have just a disagreement with a spouse, child, co-worker, bill collector or whatever the case may be?

The answer is mental distraction and this is where great technology can come in. You have probably experienced in the past that sometimes you just cant get a bad mood out of your system on your own. While I personally love meditation, I also know it is sometimes very difficult to quiet your mind enough after a confrontation to reap the benefits of the practice.

This is where places like YouTube can offer a fun and easy fix. There are so many entertaining, funny and inspiring videos that you can obtain in as little as 5 minutes that can give you the distraction that you need, if even for just a few moments.

For instance, did you know that you can find all 4 Rocky workout montage scenes on YouTube? I dont know about you, but I find I cant help but feel inspired every time I watch those scenes in any of the movies. If you find yourself in a place where you just cant seem to get the energy up to accomplish what lies before you on a certain day, I highly recommend you watch 2 or 3 of these clips to get the flow of inspiration. It takes as little as 3 minutes each to watch each clip, but the feeling can stay with you all day long.

How about laughter? I have two clips in my YouTube favorites category that make me laugh every single time I watch them. One is from the old Carol Burnett Show where Tim Conway goes off on a tangent about Siamese elephants just to make his costars laugh. It is called Tim Conway Elephant Story. If you type it in the YouTube search box, it will bring it right up. (Or you can go to my website for a direct link.) The last few seconds with Vicki Lawrence are priceless. The second is a hysterical laughing baby titled Hahaha. I find that watching either one of these clips changes my mood instantly. Maybe someday I will get bored of them and will have to look for more favorites, but I can promise you it wont be anytime soon.

How about an inspirational ending of one of your favorite movies? I have the endings of Flashdance, Dirty Dancing, Footloose, Grease, a clip from FAME and many others I just enjoy tuning into for a quick feel-good boost. (I know I know they are all chick flicks - but heh it works for me!)

Favorite upbeat song? It is on YouTube. Favorite old commercial? Chances are it is there too.

Want inspiration? Watch the last 5 minutes of the Shawshank Redemption (titled The Shawshank Redemption - Final Scene - Movie Ending ), or the last ten minutes of its a Wonderful Life (under It's A Wonderful Life Ending). I cry with happy tears every time.

I even found the opening segments of some of my favorite childhood shows that bring a touch of nostalgia. They have the opening song for H.R. Pufinstuf, Sigmund and The Sea Monsters, The Land of the Lost and all the other corny Saturday morning shows I used to watch growing up. You try and stay in a bad mood while the song H.R. Pufinstuf keeps playing through your head.

Looking for a spiritual boost? The Secret has a great Video out titled The Secret Riches Visualization Tools. An awesome video to watch while having coffee first thing in the morning or when you first arrive at work. It can set the tone for the rest of your day. There a ton more inspirational videos like that as well from all different sources. Just type in Law of Attraction in the search box.

Anyway, you get the gist of it. Think of the unusual. Something that tickles your particular fancy and give yourself a ten minute boost period.

Most importantly, do not feel guilty about it or feel as if you are just wasting time. You cannot put your time to better use, than making yourself feel better first - before taking any kind of action from a negative place. You will see a drastic difference in the outcome. (I do recommend however, waiting until the boss steps away for a moment before playing them. I dont know if they will be as understanding about your needed attitude adjustment.)

So, go and make yourself feel better in a quick, cheap and easy way!

Happy Creating!

P.S. Unfortunately I am unable to put the direct links to some of the clips mentioned above because many article directories will not accept the html links. But if you go to my website I have direct links to them listed under Pick Me Up Videos in my Free Fun Section category.

What You Didn't Know About the Law of Attraction

By Joseph R. Plazo Plazo
Imagine for a moment that it’s Monday. The alarm clock rings at six. It’s like a thunderclap cutting through the haze of yesterday’s white whine and three hours worth of Friend’s rerun.

So you get up… and accidentally bang your knee on the bedpost. Dark murderous thoughts fire across your neurons as you amble to the bathroom where you stub your toe.

Bam. Suddenly everything and everyone is public enemy number one.

You snarl at the wife handing you eggs.

You froth at Junior offering you coffee.

And you kick the fat hairy walking sofa licking your hand.

The rest of the day obviously spiralled for the worst- in fact you almost get fired for biting off the boss’ head.

That’s the Law of Attraction working against you. What you think and feel attracts the same. The Law of Attraction is simply the manifestation of your mind in the real world.

Let’s do a little experiment.

Hold out your arms and ask a friend to push it down as you think of something great- like when you snagged a promotion or enjoyed a night of steamy sex. He’d have difficulty pushing.

Now repeat the same while thinking about debts, bills, war or your in-laws.

He should push it down very easily. What gives?

Your mind transforms your body. Simple as that. What you think and feel empowers or weakens you.

Do you want to go around the world lugging a bunch of energy-sapping emotions? Or do you want to dominate your environment?

Here are five amazing tips I’ve implemented to explode the power of attraction in my life:

1) Always ask yourself “What Great Things Can I accomplish today” upon getting up. This sets the tone of your day and primes you attract positive opportunities.

2) Always be grateful for the things you took for granted. Like simply that you’re breathing. Say “Thank you, Im still breathing! Im luckier than that bloke under the tombstone.” Gratitude naturally and easily conditions you for affuence and attracts more empowered men and women into your life.

3) Something bad happen? Shrug it off and flick it from your jacket like lint. This action rapidly kicks any negative thoughts that may attract bad things into your day.

4) Hang out only with positive people. Like attracts like. Remember that.

5) And finally… treat people the way the expect to be treated. They will reciprocate and hold you in high regard. Build your social network on the right foot and expect to fly to the top of your aspirations. Attract the right people, support them and they will attract for you the right conditions for success!
