Misty shares her strategies for getting Echo to eat new foods, and when she can’t win that battle, she “sneaks” fruits and vegetables into food Echo will already eat.

Misty doesn’t believe in making separate meals for Echo – she feels like that is putting the 3-year-old in charge and that’s a bad thing, especially at mealtime. Misty believes that catering to Echo in this way will skew Echo’s expectations of how she should be treated later in life.

He explains what clarity means (also called spotting, or the purity of the diamond) and goes through the different grades of clarity (IF, VVS1, VVS2, VS1, VS2, SI1, SI2, I1, I2, and I3). He explains that diamonds occur in nature, and like all things that occur in nature, they are not perfect. have natural marks inside them called “growth marks” that occur. The grade of the diamond depends on how minor those “growth marks” are. Trained inspectors magnify the diamond ten times or more to look for imperfections. Even the lowest-rated diamonds have imperfections that are very difficult to see with the naked eye. Ronnie Mervis tells us it is OK to buy diamonds with flaws (also called inclusions) because you can always upgrade later. He also tells us that the price difference is so drastic between a IF diamond and a lower-grade diamond because the smaller the inclusion, the rarer the diamond. So, if you’re not investing for rarity, go ahead and buy a lower grade diamond. It can be your secret.

Later, after the wedding fog clears, we realize that it ain’t gonna happen. Truly, after this video, I’m still not convinced, though she gives some good suggestions, like making sure the fabric and color are current or classic, pick something with a little detail (because, as she said, “nothing says ‘bridesmaid’ like a completely plain dress.’” She makes some cool suggestions, like choosing a dress with a pattern, and suggests different accessories to help the dress make the transition. Now, if they only offered different ways to wear that wedding dress!

One man wrote in to say that he was concerned that his wife was compared their relationship to the relationships of her friends on Facebook and Twitter.  Matt and Tamsen point out the act that people tend to report the good stuff – and Matt says to use the updates for ideas on how to improve your OWN relationship.  In the world of online updates, things are not always as they seem.

Another person writes in to say that in six months of online dating they’ve had little success.  The lady is paying for Match.com, Chemistry.com, and eHarmony.com.  Matt says the best way to date online is to create a really compelling profile.  Don’t give too much information – use short, clear, clever sentences to get a small amount of information across.  Tamsen says it’s important to diversify, too.  Don’t put all your eggs in one basket.

From the two advice seekers Matt and Tamsen helped, we can see that social media affects not only those who are trying to find relationships, but those who are already in relationships.  Facebook, Twitter, Myspace, and the other sites shouldn’t be a place where you hide from your spouse or significant other.  It’s OK to have your own online identity, but a relationship is no place for secrets – even if the secrets seem small and in consequential.

In this video, Dr. Neil King demonstrates some important posture-improving chiropractic exercises that can help.

The first exercise has you starting in a tabletop position on all fours.  Lower yourself to the mat, put your arms and legs straight out from the body, and slowly lift the legs and the upper body at the same time.  King shows you the proper way to do this exercise, which is called the “Superman.”  Do five of these per day.  They help you with your strength, your mobility, and your flexibility.

The second exercise has you starting on your back – you press your lower back into the floor and lift the buttocks.  Lift the lower body and hold for fifteen seconds.  This exercise is an abdominal exercise that leads into the best exercise you can do for your abs – the bicycle.  King shows you how to do it properly so that you’re not pulling on your head or neck.

Do the first abdominal exercise 5 times per day, and the bicycle for 15 cycles for each leg.

Doing these exercises will help you maintain a healthy spine, and you’ll look and feel better, too!

Customization is key, but lots of times it is price prohibitive to obtain a totally customized piece.  There are other options, like using stock photography, templates, and more where you can input your own information.  Field warns against using just any image in your printing – most pictures on the web won’t work because they do not have high enough resolution.

Field says that studies say that large images are considered more professional looking in brochures.  For business cards, Field says it’s very important to put pertinent information on your business card, but not to cram too much onto the small rectangle.  Use the back if you have to.

Field says that the business you’re in dictates whether or not you need your photograph on your business card.  He thinks that no matter what, it’s important to make your business card stand out with color.  He also advocates using a heavy card stock is very important.

Simpson explains that you should take an herbal formula before your colon cleanse, to make sure you have the most effective treatment.  The herbs sort of “pave” the way for all the waste to be eliminated from the body.  Simpson gives you many different product names that help with loosening the fecal matter from intestinal walls.

Of course Simpson plugs Cook’s book at the end of the video, and we strongly urge you to really study up on colon cleansing and herbal supplements, and then talk to your doctor or natural healthcare provider, before you embark on what might seem like a very strange practice.  Many health professionals advocate colon cleansing to benefit the body, but you need to make sure you have no outstanding health conditions that could make the practice unsafe or unhealthy for you.
