Love Yourself this Valentines Day in a Naturally Better Way with New All-Natural Body Products

JACKSONVILLE, FL (PRWEB) January 21, 2004

According to a story run by CBS News last spring, Mount Sinai School of Medicine in New York found more than 91 industrial compounds, pollutants and other synthetic chemicals in the bodily fluids of their volunteers. Some were known to be cancer causing, while others were banned or untested. The source of these chemicals was often traced back to beauty products. Like many people, Andrea Kane, a stay-at-home mom, was concerned with this news. After losing patches of hair to a chemical hair relaxer and suffering from cysts and boils under her arms from the aluminum in deodorants, she decided to create a line of products that would be naturally better for her body. She named the line Marley’s Own, after her daughter.

“I was tired of trying to figure out what ingredients were on labels,” Kane said. “Our skin is our largest organ. We’re always being told what to put in our bodies, but what about what we put on them? So, I did some research, experimented with recipes I found in a health book and tested them on my family. We loved them and quickly realized other people would as well.”

Kane began selling Marley’s Own on Ebay. Response was steady and with the encouragement of family and friends and repeat customers, she decided to make it a full-time business. The product line includes Mango Mix Body Butter, Organic Face Scrub, Gardenia Gardens Bath Salts and Mango Shea Hair Crème and more. Though natural products can be expensive compared to mass-produced products, customers of Marley’s Own say the results far outweigh the cost

“I had awful dry, rough feet,” said Sherry Askins, a customer in New Jersey. “I tried the body butter and was hooked. I don’t make a lot of money and wouldn’t normally spend more than three dollars on lotion, but if you had seen my feet before I used this and looked at them now, you’d find the money to buy it too.”

With six products in this all-natural line, Marley’s Own has no synthetic chemicals or additives, which makes the shelf life three to six months. Customer Terry Liles says the expiration date isn’t a problem.

“I use it everyday, in the morning and before I go to bed,” Liles said. “I put it on after my bath and my skin has never felt so soft. Marley’s Own has become a permanent fixture on my beauty table.”

Kane hopes to add gift baskets and other products such as shampoos, conditioners and face toners to her natural line of products. If you’d like to discover Marley’s Own for yourself, visit http://www.marleysown.com or call (904) 382-3094.

Are You Looking For Love By Valentine’s Day?

SAN DIEGO, CA (PRWEB) February 4, 2004

With just a couple of weeks left until Valentine’s Day, many singles are clamoring to find the “love of their life,” or perhaps they are just trying to find someone to feel special about on that day.

We are all conditioned to believe love is something we must have to make us feel complete. Many dating sites on the Internet claim that between Thanksgiving and Valentine’s Day they receive the largest number of new subscribers than any other time of the year…all of them looking for love. Or are they?

Meeting over the Internet is now one of the most common ways for singles to find each other. Whether on a dating site or in a chat room, a common sense approach to meeting someone this way is imperative. Someone on the Internet is able to “alter” facts and keep some of the important parts of their life hidden. Watch for “red flags.”

Since 1997, Attorney Linda Alexander, from Vista, California, has run the websites WhoisHe.Com and WhoisShe.Com doing background, criminal and civil record checks. On a daily basis, Alexander receives hundreds of requests for her service. While a large portion of her clients are employers, attorneys, people hiring nannies or in-home caregivers, many of the requests come from singles wanting to confirm for their own personal safety, that the person on the other side of the computer screen is who they claim to be. The site’s motto says it all “When In Doubt….Check Them Out.”

Over the years Alexander has found that in about sixty percent of the cases people have lied about important information regarding their life. Results from background and record checks have found that people lie about their age, marital status, profession and much, much more. In some cases, the record checks have uncovered criminal pasts, sexual predators, and pedophiles, many of whom are finding access to new victims via the internet. It is important to be smart and to be safe. WhoisHe.Com and WhoisShe.Com allows you to take control of your future. Know what you are getting into before you invest your heart, your money, or your life. Information is the key to being safe online.

Alexander has written numerous articles on internet safety. One such article, “Playing It Safe Online” has been republished on over five hundred websites on the net. The article gives common sense guidelines to meeting on the net and then tips for safely meeting for a date.

This article has been updated for 2004.

PLAYING IT SAFE ONLINE BY LINDA J ALEXANDER

The Internet is now the place for smart, eligible people to find romance, and those looking for love are swarming into cyberspace by the millions. As a result, thousands of individuals have begun relationships online with people they have not met and know little about. With so many people communicating via the Net and deciding to date virtual strangers, it is important to be safe and be smart. Common sense and communication can go a long way to keep you safe.

Here are some guidelines for playing it safe:

Watch out for someone who seems too good to be true. Begin by first communicating solely by email or online chat. Be vigilant in noticing odd behavior or inconsistencies. If someone is evasive, this is a red flag. “Listen” to your correspondent’s words. The person at the other end may not be who or what he/she says. Trust your instincts. If anything makes you uncomfortable, walk away for your own safety and protection.

Find out as much information as you can.

Learn to ask many questions. Find out where he grew up, where she works, and how he is connected to his community. These are clues to finding out who this person really is. Be suspicious, if someone is unwilling to reveal any personal information. Probe any discrepancies in their stories. If your correspondent is unwilling to answer your questions, this is another red flag. Continue with a great deal of caution. Keep asking questions until you are completely comfortable with the person. If you feel something is not quite right –trust your instincts and let go of this person.

Honesty is the key to success.

Represent yourself accurately. Exaggerating or deceiving is easy online. Areas to be particularly cautious about are marital status and physical appearance. Begin with a request for a picture and send them a recent one of you. If someone is unwilling to send a recent photo, this is warning sign. If he or she continuously comes up with an excuse, it is because that person has something to hide. Having a photo scanned is available at Kinko’s for less than a few dollars, so there is no valid excuse for not doing it. After you have exchanged photos, continue to fill in the gaps, so that the other person does not create you in their image. The number one complaint of those who meet online is the false representation of appearance, age, and marital status. Keep it honest.

Talk on the telephone and continue to learn more about your correspondent.

A phone call can reveal a lot about a person’s communication and social skills. It is worth the cost of the call to protect your security. But do not give out your phone number to a stranger. Trust takes time to develop. Only when you feel completely comfortable should you furnish your phone number. There are services over the Internet which will provide you with a protected phone number, and it may be worth checking them out. This is especially important in the event that you do not connect well with this person and you would prefer not to have them phone you again!

Don’t rush into anything.

Meeting someone online and then arranging a date in a relatively short time can be dangerous. Take time to find out who this person really is. If someone is pressuring you to get together before you are ready, this is another warning sign. If anything feels strange as you get to know this person, then it is time to back away and look for another match.

If you decide to meet for a date, proceed with caution. Arrange the meeting on your terms. The following is a guide to ensure that you have a safe encounter:

Before You Meet

Before you go out with someone new, it is important to get as much information as you can about the person you will meet.

1. Always ask for a full name, address, and telephone number before agreeing to go out with someone you have never met.

2. Never go out with someone who will only give you a pager or work phone number. (There is a very good chance of a spouse in the house).

3. When someone gives his or her phone number, find a reason to call unexpectedly. This may help you to find out if she is married or he is living with someone.

4. Find out where the person works, and whether you can call him or her at work

5. Follow your intuition, it something is said that seems strange or suspicious – proceed with caution or back away. Your safety is most important.

First Date Know-How

Be careful when agreeing to meet anyone in person. Set the conditions for your date and do not let the other person change them. Remember, you really do not know someone until you spend time with them in person.

1. Always tell someone where you are going with your date and when you will return. Leave your date’s full name and telephone numbers with that person and write it down. Also give the information to someone you trust to make sure that you safely return home from your date. If your date wants you to keep it secret, this is a very big red flag!. Protect yourself.

2. Always meet in a public place that you are familiar with on your first date. Stay near other people in a lighted area. Getting together for coffee is a pleasant, casual way to get to know someone.

3. Never allow yourself to be picked up from your house. Giving your address out to a stranger is not safe. Arrange your own transportation so that you can leave if there is any sign of trouble or if you feel uncomfortable with a person. By having your own transportation you are in charge of your own timetable and can leave the date whenever you want.

4. Pay attention to everything that this person has told you about him or her self. If you find out that your date has lied about anything, this is another red flag.

5. Do not bring your date back to your house after the first meeting. You do not know this person. Use the same kind of common sense and rules that you would use in any type of dating relationship. Remember your safety is most important.

6. After the date, telephone the friend you have left the information with about your date. Let them know that you are safely back at home after your date. Be vigilant about this in order to protect yourself.

Be smart and be safe. Take control of your future. Know what you are getting into before you invest your heart, money, or your life. Information is the key to being safe online.

“The Mate Map” Helps Singles to a Relationship Makeover for Valentine’s Day — Book From Mate Selection Expert Steven Sacks Shows How to Create a Personalized Screening Process for Choosing a Partner

Posted on by
Reply

New York, NY (PRWEB) February 4, 2004

“Instead of seeking a fashion or beauty makeover, we should be focused on having a relationship makeover, which will ultimately make us happier and fulfilled,” says relationship coach Steven Sacks, author of “The Mate Map: The Right Tool for Choosing the Right Mate” (http://www.matemap.com).

In “The Mate Map,” Sacks shows singles how to create a personalized screening process (AKA “their Mate Map”) and apply it to their specific situation, whether they are going on a first date or trying to decide if someone they are dating is relationship-worthy. The book is for men and women in their 20s, 30s, or 40s, who are single.

“Your dating success is only as good as your screening process,” says Sacks. “Right now, most people have an inadequate screening process, as they date people based on two criteria — being attracted to them and having a few hobbies in common. However, in order to make sure we are compatible with someone for the long-term, we need to create a screening process that is much more thorough.”

Sacks says that in order to determine whether or not we’ve found “the one,” we need to make sure we’re compatible with a potential mate in four essential areas -– Chemistry, Physical Attraction, Love, and Personality. “The Mate Map” describes each of these four ‘Relationship Essentials’ in detail, and uncovers the truth behind several myths. For example, most people think that you either have chemistry with someone or you don’t. But there are actually six different types of chemistry, and you can have a high level of chemistry with someone in one area, such as Sexual Chemistry, and a low level of chemistry in another area, such as Non-Verbal Communication.

Steven Sacks is available for interviews from February 4-14. Besides discussing the contents of “The Mate Map,” Sacks also offers insightful advice and commentary on a variety of dating and relationship topics, such as:

Figuring out your “dealbreakers” sooner rather than later

How to prevent cheating and getting cheated on

Giving physical attraction and chemistry a chance to develop

Online Dating / Singles Events [Pros & Cons; Speed Dating; Post-It Parties]

Reality dating shows [Why these relationships don't last; What Meredith "The Bachelorette" is looking for]

Why people believe in love at first sight, although it doesn’t really exist

Steven Sacks is a relationship coach, speaker, and author of “The Mate Map: The Right Tool for Choosing the Right Mate” (http://www.matemap.com). He is also an instructor at the Matchmaking Institute. Sacks and his Mate Map technique have been featured in such publications as the Chicago Tribune, Houston Chronicle, New York Post, Seventeen, and In Touch Weekly. In addition to his television appearances, he’s been on dozens of radio shows across the country. Sacks splits his time between his hometown of New York City and Durham, North Carolina, with his fiancée–the first Mate Map success story.

The Mate Map: The Right Tool for Choosing the Right Mate (Banner, ISBN 0971388709, Hardcover, $ 24.95) is distributed to the trade by Ingram and Baker & Taylor in the United States, and Hushion House in Canada. The Mate Map will be published in Japan and China in Fall 2004. The Mate Map is available to consumers at bookstores everywhere, online at http://www.matemap.com and http://www.amazon.com, or by calling toll-free, 1-800-MATE-MAP (1-800-628-3627).

Steven Sacks is available for interviews during the Valentine’s Day season from February 4-14

There are monthly prizes for the most compelling true-to-experience stories and comments. A grand prize of the North American Car of the Year, the Toyota Prius, will be awarded to the story that best captures why and how a particular Lovemark has won your “Loyalty Beyond Reason”. This competition runs until May.

Visitors to the site can also cast a vote that influences the popularity of each Lovemark. The current top 20 Lovemarks alone have drawn in a total of almost 4000 votes.

The Lovemarks concept is fully explained on the website, which invites debate in its section titled Backchat and has an online tool for profiling brands.

Valentine’s Day History – Story of the Chinese Valentine’s Day history

Posted on by

(PRWEB) January 12, 2005

Valentine’s day history – Story of the Chinese Valentine’s Day history.

Valentine’s day has many stories which may rest with the number of the sweeties. But here, I will tell you the story of the Chinese Valentine’s Day!

Chinese Valentine’s Day is on the 7th day of the 7th lunar month in the Chinese calendar. A love story for this day is about the 7th daughter of Emperor of Heaven and an orphaned cowherd. The Emperor separated them. The 7th daughter was forced to move to the star Vega and the cowherd moved to the star Altair. They are allowed to meet only once a year on the day of 7th day of 7th lunar month.

The story began from the good-looking poor orphaned boy living with his elder brother and sister-in-law. After his parents past away, his brother inherited the house and the land. The boy owned an old ox. He needed to work on the farm’s field with the ox everyday. She was called a cowherd. His daily life was just like in a Cinderella story. The 7th daughter of Emperor is good at handcrafting, especially weaving clothing. So she was called a Weaving Maid. The Emperor likes her skill to weave clouds and rainbows to beautify the world.

The ox was actually an immortal from the Heaven. He made mistakes in the Heaven and was punished as an ox in the Earth. One day, the ox suddenly said to the cowherd, “You are a nice person. If you want to get married, go to the brook and your wish will be come true.” The cowherd went to the brook and saw all 7 pretty daughters of Emperor came down from Heaven and took a bath in there. Fascinated by the youngest and also the most beautiful one, he took away her fairy clothes secretly. The other six fairies went away after bath. The youngest couldn’t fly back without her fairy clothes. Then the cowherd appeared and told her that he would not return her clothes unless she promised to be his wife. After a little hesitation and with a mixture of shyness and eagerness, she agreed to the request from this handsome man. So they married and had two children two years later.

One day, the old ox was dying and told the cowherd that he should keep his hide for emergency purpose. The Emperor found the sky’s not that beautiful as before without the 7th daughter weaving clouds and rainbows. He wanted his daughter’s grandmother to find the missing daughter and to bring her back. . While the 7th princess was flying to the Heaven with her grandmother, the cowboy wore the ox hide, took his children in two bamboo baskets with his wife’s old fairy clothes and chased after his wife in the sky. The grandmother made a milky way in the sky with her hairpin, which kept them separated. The 7th princess was moved to the star Vega (The swooping – Eagle) in the Lyra (Harp) constellation. And the cowherd with his two children stayed in the star Altair (Flying one) in the Aquila (Eagle) constellation. The star of Vega is also known as the Weaving Maid Stand the star of Altair is as the Cowherd Star in China.

Magpies were moved by their true love and many of them gathered and formed a bridge for the couple to meet in the evening of the 7th day of the 7th lunar month, which is the day the Emperor allowed them to meet once a year.

They said that it’s hard to find a magpie on Chinese Valentine’s Day in China, because all magpies fly to make the bridge for the Weaving Maid and Cowherd. The one thing to prove that is the feathers on the head of the magpies are much lesser after the Chinese Valentine’s Day. If the night Chinese Valentine’s Day rains, the rain are the tears of the Weaving Maid and Cowherd.

“Valentine’s Day Romantics Descend on Loveland, Ohio”

Posted on by

Loveland, OH (PRWEB) January 13, 2005

Every February, the Loveland Post Office suddenly has a lot more mail to sort through. Loveland is a quiet, old-fashioned town, thirty minutes’ drive from Cincinnati. You see small shops named Loveland Antiques and Loveland Mill, and there’s even a Loveland Castle on the outskirts of town. As February 14 approaches, though, it becomes a mecca for Valentine’s Day lovers. Thousands of romantics, men and women from other parts of Ohio and surrounding Kentucky and Indiana descend on Loveland Post Office, some driving hundreds of miles, to mail their Valentine’s Day cards. Why? To get the “Loveland” postmark on their envelopes.

With Loveland referred to as the “Valentine capital of the world,” there’s also a Valentine’s Day-style story behind Loveland Castle. It was built by hand by one man, Sir Harry Andrews, from 1929 through 1981. Among the newspaper, television, and radio features done on him, it was once mentioned that he was single. The result was over fifty marriage proposals from women who wanted to live in Loveland Castle with him. Sir Harry, it seems, preferred his memory of a woman to whom he’d been engaged. He and his bride were supposed to move into the castle once he’d reached a certain stage in building it, but she died unexpectedly before that came to pass. She’s rumored to have stayed on as a ghost in the castle, and the cast and crew of a film that was shot in the castle, a ‘romantic drama of loss’ Lives No Longer Ours, say they had encounters while there that couldn’t be explained any other way.

Uncannily, the film itself is about an adventurer, Capt. Jameson Macaulay, who returns to his castle in 1650 to keep a promise to his new fiancee–that he’ll take down his deceased wife’s portrait. But along the way he finds that “certain memories can mean more than life itself.” Now, there’s a romantic who probabaly would have “ridden” hundreds of miles to get the “Loveland” postmark. There is a website for Loveland Castle at http://www.LovelandCastle.com and an award-winning site for the yet-to-be-released Lives No Longer Ours at http://www.PhaethonWorld.com.

A Valentine’s Day Card From “Loveland”?–Free Courtesy of the U.S. Post Office

Posted on by

Loveland, OH (PRWEB) January 31, 2005

Are you a true romantic? Like to make just the right impression this year? Then you’ll want to have a “Loveland” postmark on your Valentine’s Day card. Thirty minutes’ drive from Cincinnati, Loveland is a quiet, old-fashioned town with a post office that began operating in 1775. There’s even a castle, Loveland Castle. While making a film in and around the castle, New York writer-producer Barbara Briggs discovered a little-known “re-mailing” program. You can send your card to the Loveland Post Office and they’ll postmark it “Loveland” with a special Valentine’s Day stamp and send it on for you. Postmaster Gerald Kellner told Briggs they’re now getting cards from around the world for re-mailing to addresses in the U.S. Locally, he noted NCAA superstar UC basketball coach Bob Huggins. And as February 14 approaches, thousands of romantics, men and women from other parts of Ohio and surrounding Kentucky and Indiana, also descend on Loveland Post Office, some having driven hundreds of miles before the re-mailing program, to mail their Valentine’s Day cards.

Postmaster Kellner also told Briggs that as the “re-mailing” has begun catching on, they’ve started taking the cards to the senior citizens’ home, where volunteers do the postmarking and re-sending. “Next year,” he added, “we’re going to have a special ceremony with the oldest couple in Loveland.” With Loveland often referred to as the “Sweetheart of Ohio,” there’s also a Valentine’s Day-style story behind Loveland Castle. It was built by hand by one man, Sir Harry Andrews, from 1929 through 1981. Among the newspaper, television, and radio features done on him, it was once mentioned that he was single. The result was over fifty marriage proposals from women who wanted to live in Loveland Castle with him. Sir Harry, it seems, preferred his memory of a woman to whom he’d been engaged. He and his bride were to be married and move into the castle once he’d reached a certain stage in building it, but she died unexpectedly before that came to pass. She’s rumored to have stayed on as a ghost in the castle, and the cast and crew of the film Briggs shot in the castle, a ‘romantic drama of loss’ Lives No Longer Ours, say they had encounters while there that would be hard to explain any other way.

Uncannily, the film itself is about an adventurer, Capt. Jameson Macaulay, played by Australian actor Paul Sanderson, who in 1650 returns to his castle to keep a promise to his new fiancée–that he’ll take down his deceased wife’s portrait. But she may or may not be a ghost in the castle and during his long first might back he finds that “certain memories can mean more than life itself.” In other words, a romantic who probably would have ‘ridden’ hundreds of miles to get the “Loveland” postmark. The official Errol Flynn site in fact has a link to the film’s website saying Jameson Macaulay is in the vein of Flynn’s ‘sensitive’ swashbucklers. The award-winning site for the yet-to-be-released Lives No Longer Ours is at http://www.PhaethonWorld.com. As for how to get your Valentine’s Day card “re-mailed,” stamp and address the envelope with the card in it (37 cents for cards, 23 cents for a postcard, or international coupons if you’re overseas) and mail it in a larger, stamped envelope to Postmaster, Loveland Valentine Re-mailing, Loveland, Ohio 45140. To ensure re-delivery, it’s best to get your card there by February 10.

Workhouse Publicity: Valentines & Wedding Tips by Great Performances

(PRWEB) February 2, 2005

Need a perfect spokesperson for dreamy Valentine’s or Wedding event tips or a source quote for your romantic food trend story? Looking for a pro seasoned at organizing special events and answering key questions your readership wants to know? This Valentine’s Day, turn to Great Performances, New York’s largest full-service catering and event planning company, for practical information on planning romantic high-profile or private gatherings for 2 to 200. Great Performances has successfully fashioned romantic ambience for sophisticated and eclectic gatherings to delicious acclaim for over 25 years. Who could possibly have more experience staging romantic affairs than a caterer whose events have included some of the most talked-about weddings in New York including former New York City Mayor Rudy Guiliani’s wedding to Judith Nathan? Creating what the New York Times termed a “fairy tale extravagance,” Great Performances’ passion has no limits and weaves fine food with genuine service setting the stage for romantic adventures of a lifetime. And when Martha Stewart Weddings, leader in all things romantic, wanted some practical information about planning a wedding, its editors turned to Great Performances.

Ever since Liz Neumark launched the company in 1979, Great Performances has helped many a bride and groom declare their love. Its stock-in-trade goes far beyond weddings, of course. To name just a very few of the high-profile events it has pulled off to delicious acclaim, Great Performances has catered Michael J Fox’s star-studded fund-raisers for Parkinson’s research, the 50th Anniversary of the United Nations, Mayor Bloomberg’s inaugural celebration, and the Warner Music Grammy Party; it also runs the stylish new restaurant at the Asia Society, the café (and all catering) at Riverdale’s lovely Wave Hill, the foodservice at the chichi Hudson Hotel, the Mae Mae Café enoteca di vino, and a number of other fabulous venues around town. Wherever the event, “this ‘exceptionally creative’ caterer/event-planner specializing in classic American fare garners raves for everything.” Zagat wrote last year.
