Get Churchill's "Success Talk"
and Change Your Life

Did you know that studies show the #1 factor for success is communication skills?

Find out how to become a great success in life — by learning how to communicate with power and effectiveness!

For the first time, discover the speaking secrets of the great communicators from a man who has advised five U.S. presidents how to succeed!

It is true that people who rise to the top of their businesses or organizations and who gain prominence in their professions share one common trait — they are people who learned how to communicate effectively!

Now, this new audio and video program called Success Talk: The Speaking Secrets of Winston Churchill & Other Great Leaders by James C. Humes reveals the simple, easy-to-apply secrets that will make you a powerhouse communicator — in the company staff meeting, at your local civic association, or in front of any group of people from two to 200,000 or more.

The program has been prepared by James C. Humes, the famous presidential speech writer who even wrote the words left by the astronauts on the moon.

Remember, if you don't know how to speak with power and confidence, you are putting yourself at a severe disadvantage professionally — with implications for your financial well being.

Advice to Churchill: Avoid the Public!

James Humes' Success Talk program tells of a young man who was a poor speaker, handicapped with both dyslexia and stuttering, a young man who was rejected from college. His teachers gently advised him, because of his difficulty communicating, to avoid any career dealing with the public.

This young man was Winston Churchill! The very same Churchill who went on to become one of the greatest speakers of all time; the same man who, through the power of his spoken word, rallied his nation and the Free World to defeat Hitler.

Now James Humes reveals the speaking secrets of Winston Churchill and other leaders — and shows the easy ways you can practically apply these secrets in your daily life — to improve your relationships, to better your career and even to increase your financial potential!

Study after study shows that your communication skills are the key to your advancement. The newsletter Bottom Line Personal recently stated: "As an executive reaches middle-management and beyond, the primary criteria for advancement are communication and motivation skills rather than basic job performance."

Save $50,000! (That's what major corporations have paid to learn the Success Talk secrets from author James Humes!)

With the Success Talk program, available on audio tape set or video, you will learn the speaking secrets of Winston Churchill. James Humes reveals these easy-to-remember techniques that Churchill used to become a powerful, persuasive speaker.

Who is James C. Humes? Only one man has the distinction of having written the words placed by the Apollo astronauts on the moon: ". . . We came in peace for all mankind."

Speechwriter and adviser to five U.S. presidents, historian, lawyer, professor, actor and legislator, Humes has made himself a success and has helped countless others achieve success throughout the world. Corporations like IBM, General Electric and others have paid James Humes his standard program fee (open rate of $50,000) to give his Success Talk program — the same program you can get today for less than $100!

Added Bonus — Free $30 Success Talk Book

If you order the Success Talk program, we'll also include a free soft cover book by James Humes: "Success Talk: How to Become an Effective Speaker & Communicator." This will help you reinforce the powerful, new information you'll learn from the Success Talk program.

In Success Talk Humes reveals the speaking secrets of Churchill and other great leaders like Ronald Reagan and Margaret Thatcher and turns them into easy-to-follow lessons and exercises that you can use in your daily life to persuade, sell, motivate and win!

You can succeed in life, business, in politics, in love — in every walk of life — by learning to become a better communicator! And don't forget, this product comes with a complete money-back guarantee — so order today!

Reviews: DOES DRINKING WATER AFTER TAKING ANTACIDS DILUTE THE MEDICINE?

DOES DRINKING WATER AFTER TAKING ANTACIDS DILUTE THE MEDICINE?

Question by jachooz:
Does drinking water right after taking antacids dilute the medicine?
Ok, this is a strange question. If you take Rolaids or Tums and then drink water following chewing them does the water dilute the medicine and stop it from operating? Or does it matter at all? I have heartburn now because I am pregnant but I hate the chalky following taste and constantly drink after taking them. I even tried the Rolaids soft chews but they also leave a filmy taste and they are as well sweet…….. ought to I stay away from drinking after taking them or not?

——————————————

Answer by Dieek
Well, you can try other numerous foods or drinks that possibly have a base to them. Maybe you can try mixing some baking soda with water and drinking it? Sounds odd, I know, but baking soda is a base and it does support even out acids.

just some thing to believe about.

that, and I recommend the tropical flavor tums.

The British Intelligence agency has unveiled its latest weapon in the war
on terror, [0]cupcake recipes published by the Ellen DeGeneres show. MI6
hacked an online al-Queda magazine replacing instructions about how to
��Make a bomb in the Kitchen of your Mom" with a web page of recipes for
��The Best Cupcakes in America�� from Ellen's show. From the article: "It
included a recipe for the Mojito Cupcake �� 'made of white rum cake and
draped in vanilla buttercream'- and the Rocky Road Cupcake �� 'warning:
sugar rush ahead!' By contrast, the original magazine featured a recipe
showing how to make a lethal pipe bomb using sugar, match heads and a
miniature lightbulb, attached to a timer."

is exploding, and nowhere is that more obvious than at the Internal
Revenue Service, which has seen reports [1]rise from 51,702 in 2008 to
248,357 in 2010. While it has programs in place to fight the identity
theft issue, it is also hamstrung in many other areas, according to [2]a
report out this week (PDF) from the Government Accountability Office. For
example, the GAO says the IRS's ability to address identity theft issues
is constrained by privacy laws that limit IRS' ability to share identity
theft information with other agencies."

[0]pbahra writes "A bill that would allow Spain's authorities to [1]close
down illegal websites with limited judicial oversight has caused anger
among the country's Internet users. The law, known as Sinde's bill (after
the current culture minister ��ngeles Gonz��lez-Sinde) is designed to close
the loophole that sharing sites such as Roja Directa have exploited. If
you go to the website today, you will find a pithy warning against
Internet piracy, courtesy of the US authorities. The US has exerted
considerable pressure on Spain over what it sees as Madrid's failure to
tackle Internet piracy. A banner with the seals of the US Department of
Justice, plus two other bureaucracies, informs Internet users that the
Spanish domain name, formerly a hub of illegal sports content, has been
seized in accordance with US copyright law. But if you do a search, it
takes very little to realize that Roja Directa is alive and kicking."

ship with Ubuntu Linux. Three 2011 models �� the 1001PXD, 1011PX, and
1015PX �� are immediately available, though no retailers seem to stock
them yet. A Canonical exec had this to say about the new netbooks: 'There
are a number of factors that [1]make Ubuntu an attractive proposition for
ASUS and its customers. Ubuntu continues to set the standard for slick
design, ease of use and security, it is the world's third most popular
operating system, and [it] has the most number of users in Linux. We
[Canonical] were looking at publicly available data on the operating
systems accessing Wikipedia last week and found the web site serves more
pages to Ubuntu PCs than to iPads �� there are a lot of users out there.'
It might not be the same as Asus launching three flagship netbooks all
running Ubuntu instead of Windows, but it's definitely a start. Asus says
there are more Ubuntu netbooks to come later this year, too �� hopefully
they'll run Ubuntu 11.04."

CWmike writes "In what appears to be the latest bid by a government to
throttle access to news and information amid growing civil unrest, the
[0]Syrian government Friday shut down all Internet services. Internet
monitoring firm Renesys reported that starting around 7 a.m. EDT today,
close to two-thirds of all Syrian networks were suddenly unreachable from
the global Internet. In just 30 minutes, routes to 40 of 59 Syrian
networks were [1]withdrawn from the global routing table, Reneys' chief
technology officer James Cowie said in a blog post. The shutdown [2]has
affected all of SyriaTel's 3G mobile data networks as well as several of
the country's ISPs, such as Sawa, INET and Runnet. Also down are the
Damascus city government page and the customs web site. The only networks
that appear to be somewhat reachable are a handful of government-owned
networks such as one belonging to Syria's Oil Ministry, Cowie noted. 'We
don't know yet how the outage was coordinated, or what specific regions
or cities may be affected more than others,' Cowie wrote. 'If Egypt and
Libya are any guide, one might conclude that events on the street in
Syria are reaching a tipping point.'"

+--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[0]Hugh Pickens writes "Researchers have developed a [1]computer
algorithm that can rank images based on memorability. They found that in
general, images with people in them are the most memorable, followed by
images of human-scale space �� such as the produce aisle of a grocery
store �� and close-ups of objects. Least memorable are natural landscapes.
Researchers built a collection of about 10,000 images of all kinds for
the study �� interior-design photos, nature scenes, streetscapes and
others, and human subjects who participated through Amazon's
[2]Mechanical Turk program were told to indicate, by pressing a key on
their keyboard, when an image appeared that they had already seen. The
researchers then used machine-learning techniques to create a
computational model that analyzed the images and their memorability as
rated by humans by analyzing various statistics �� such as color, or the
distribution of edges �� and correlated them with the image's
memorability. 'There has been a lot of work in trying to understand what
makes an image interesting, or appealing, or what makes people like a
particular image,' says Alexei Efros at Carnegie Mellon University. 'What
[the MIT researchers] did was basically approach the problem from a very
scientific point of view and say that one thing we can measure is
memorability.' Researchers believe the [3]algorithm may be useful (PDF)
to graphic designers, photo editors, or anyone trying to decide which of
their vacation photos to post on Facebook."

On Wednesday we discussed news of Google's accusation that sources
originating in China were [0]interfering with Gmail using malware and
phishing techniques, targeting Chinese political activists, US government
officials, military personnel, and others. In response to the
accusations, a Chinese official [1]denied government involvement in the
attacks, while the US government indicated [2]they would investigate the
matter. The attacks were [3]more sophisticated than a typical phishing
attempt, they [4]involved Yahoo and Hotmail as well, and they have likely
been [5]going on for months. Now, according to a CBS report, "The Chinese
military accused the US on Friday of [6]launching a global 'Internet war'
to bring down Arab and other governments, redirecting the spotlight away
from allegations of major online attacks on Western targets originating
in China."
