existing customers feel like kings, you could get one
customer to bring you another customer just like them -
by Word-of-Mouth advertising. That would double your

What is the connection of May Day to Robin Hood?
Is it true that turtles don't die of old age?
--------------
ANSWERS TO YESTERDAY'S TRIVIA - - - -
--------------
Is it true that the cardinal (bird) is named for the
cardinals of the Catholic church?
Yes. The bright red bird owes its name to the equally
bright red-robed officials of the Catholic Church. The
Catholic cardinals got THEIR name from the adjective
"cardinal" which means "important" or "that on which
something depends," from the Latin "cardo," or "hinge."
They started wearing their distinctive red robes in the
thirteenth century when Pope Innocent IV proposed
they wear the red cloaks and red hats as a symbol of
their willingness to shed blood for their faith.
Which is bright red: the male cardinal or the female
cardinal?
It's only the male cardinal that is brilliantly red. The
female is a much duller-looking reddish brown. When
you see a male cardinal, look hard and you'll probably
be able to find the female too. Cardinals tend to mate
for life and stay together year-round.

Are You Among
The Technological Elite?
by Ken Darby
In North America the population of technology users
can be broken down into three distinct groups,
according to Pew Internet and American Project.
They have been conducting a study on who uses
high tech communication devices and how is the
age grouping broken down. As you might expect it
coincides with other information we have presented
in this column.
- Generation Xers (GenXers) make up most of the
technology elite (about 60%). The average age
for this group is 36 years.
- The Young Tech Elites make up one-fifth of the
technology elite. The average age for this group
is 22 years.
- Older Wired Baby Boomers make up the remaining
one-fifth of the technology elite. The average age
for these baby boomers is 52.
Young Elites make up about 6% of the population
and spend $161 per month on average. Their
average age is 22.
According to the study Generation Xers spend an
average of $169 per month on information products,
and make up about 18% of the population.
Wired Baby Boomers spend on average of $175 per
month online. They make up about 6% of the population.
They are extremely active information gatherers.
These statistics are just a few more clues as to where
you should be spending your time and resources in
reaching your internet public.
These and more are just a few of the reason why
you want to consider using theNEWSSHOP Internet
Marketing Package for your business.
Here are markets you cannot, do not, and will not
reach in any other way.
It is clear that if you want to reach this market you must
go where the market is, on the internet. That is what
theNEWSSHOP Internet Marketing Package is all about.

COMPUTER TIPS - - -
-------------------------
Windows NT&2000
Each file has "properties," which consist of information
such as the date and time the file was created, and other
information. You can change attributes of a file .
To view a file's properties:
Open Windows NT or Windows 2000 Explorer.
Highlight the file whose properties you want to view.
Then choose File,and then Properties. The Properties
dialog box for that file appears.
At least two tabs appear in the file's Properties dialog box: the
General tab and the Version tab.
The General tab displays the file's name, type, location, and
size. You'll also see the MS-DOS name and the date that the file
was created, modified, or accessed last. The tab also lists four
attributes that you can modify for the file: Read-Only, Hidden,
Archive, and System.

MEDICAL COLUMN - - - -
Meniere's Syndrome
"Meniere's" is a condition affecting the
nerves of one or both inner ears.
PART 3 of 5
Who Can Get This Condition? And how does it happen?
Anyone can get this.male or female, and any age. We work with
children as young as four and five and old as 88 & 92!
Treatments
Traditional treatment includes giving a diuretic: a drug that
draws off excess fluid (feeling of fullness). It will most
likely include a low salt diet...again to prevent fluid
build-up. It will often include a drug to alleviate or prevent
the vertigo or dizziness. And often it will include something to
help the person relax or lessen their fears of facing the
unpredictability of the symptoms. Because sufferers are willing
to help each other in a somewhat hopeless situation, many
"unusual" remedies are surfacing. One of the more hopeful ones
includes a certain complete and balanced group of nutritional
supplements as recommended by medical doctors. They are
achieving surprisingly good results. Essentially they are
providing appropriate nutrients to the body to help itself.
Why does it return after a long period of peace and confidence
that it has gone for good?
There is some thought, and ultimate hope, that an underlying
inflammatory reaction is occurring to create pressure on one or
both of these nerves. If this is real, then it follows that
finding and dealing with this process could eliminate these very
debilitating and unpredictable symptoms.

THE NET'S BEST KEPT SECRET
<><><><>
THE SAGA OF PINEHILL
by Ken Darby
--------------------------------------
Eloise Henry, age 18 when the story began, and
David Wylie, age 20, were selected, by a
stranger in town, to take a dangerous trip, together.
The idea was that each was to take only the clothes
on their back, and go anywhere in the world where
the stranger took them. They were to be left there
to find their own way home. They had no money,
no identification, and no idea where they were.
Upon their safe return there was a million dollars
waiting in their bank account for them. If one did not
make it that money would go to the survivor. If neither
made it the money would go to their families.
The story deals with their adventures along the way
and leads into the only way they could survive. That was
for Eloise to learn higher law and commit her life to
that end. Along the way she learns how to perform
many a miracle.
The story leads to many friends, many adventures
and many places. As you read on, enjoy. It continues . . . . . . .

"This is all so new to me. I have been thinking about it
for a long time, because of a friend of mine. I just never
thought I would find this world." said Sandra.
"Sadhu spoke truth. You were like many who wanted it
to be truth but could see no possible way for it to be so.
Fear not. This is real. You were brought this far because
your heart is pure and desires only to help others. You
were not seeking power so you could gain worldly and
material goods or fame. Unto you much is given and
much will be asked. Think this not a threat. We all do as
much as we can to help mankind wherever we are called.
It is, in fact, our great pleasure. You, too, will find it
so." said Oomano.
"How did you know Sadhu was speaking with
me?" asked Sandra, surprised.
"Sandra, I have never met Sadhu, in person. I know only
his heart and mind. I was able to witness your thoughts
as you were thinking of him. While we do not pry into
your private affairs, it is possible for us to do so if
necessary to aid you." responded Oomano.
"Lunch is ready!" said Abetta. She walked to the door
and called out the same words to the kids.
In seconds there was a stampede of kids. They all
wanted to wash up, then rush to the table. Like all kids
they tackled the food as if they were piranhas.
It took no time for the food to disappear. Sandra was
nonetheless impressed with the kids. Her heart went
out to them. They were polite, courteous and fascinated
with her. They had never met anyone with an accent
like Sandra had. They asked questions about kangaroos
and all the other different wildlife that lived in Australia.
Sandra was pressed into service for the afternoon
school session.
Following lunch Sandra, Oomano and Riata all went
outside with the kids. After a bit of play time, Oomano
called them al together and began what was her
informal schooling.
She trained in a way that incorporated knowledge of
higher law into lessons the kids could use for general
knowledge. In that way the children came to believe
that living by higher law was a natural part of life.
Oomano's hardest chores were those in the area of
greed. She worked with each child individually to have
them come to understand that greed, selfishness, lying,
cheating, stealing, were all traits that hurt you. She
showed them all how giving, sharing, helping each
other made each of them strong. She taught them the
law, "As ye sow, so shall ye reap." and, as each child
absorbed that they began to receive more personal
instruction on using higher law.
Some of the children had been here three years. They
were really progressed in their thinking. None of the
children had selfish hearts. Only Romano's brothers
and sister needed further training along those lines,
and that only because they were newcomers.
So, when Sandra asked, in the presence of the children,
if they could all go to Australia to see some of the animals
and wildlife they had been speaking of, they really had
no option. The children were of one voice. They all
wanted to go.
Oomano, had not done this as a group before. She
looked to Riata, who nodded affirmatively. Then she
looked at Sandra who did the same.
"Okay you guys, but remember we have to be back here
for supper, alright?" she said.
They all agreed, and without instructions, as if this was
he norm, they all held hands. When the circle was
complete they went to a place in Australia that Sandra
was holding in her mind.
This place was a bush land type of place. It was warm,
like home, but much dryer, less humidity. The sun felt
burning hot.
Sandra had brought them to where they would see
kangaroo, wallabies, ostrich, and, if they watched, koala.
There were large open patches, away from the bush,
and lots of scattered bush.
They began to walk, slowly, looking for all they could
see. It was not long before they found the animals they
were seeking.
Little Romero spoke, "This is like that place Romano
took me to. He said it was Africa. It is hot and dry, and lots of
animals. Look at those ones jumping." he pointed to a
group of wallaby.

OUR BUSINESS OBSERVATIONS
Since beginning the Project 2003 item, many of you have
become interested in following what we are doing in our
business.
It is a way of seeing some of the good things and not so good
things that happen to us along the way.
While it may not replicate your story, neither may it be replicated
by you, it does keep you updated on some of the trials and
tribulations of doing business on the internet.
We thought we would keep it up.

TODAY'S REPORT:
I have been working on the planning for an invoicing/customer
info database for theNEWSSHOP. Thinks are about to get a
little busy around here. I expect ten or more theNEWSSHOP
accounts by the end of the month. That will mean we are in
business with a good solid start. Our sales girl (contractor)
feels she will be bringing in many sales a month with ten
as a minimum target. If she does that she will be less than a
year and a half away from her dream home. Pretty good!

HA! HA! HA!
A cop walking his usual beat sees an old man pulling a box
on a leash, down a busy street. "Poor man," the cop thinks
to himself. "I'd better go humor him..."
"That's a nice dog you got there," says the cop to the old man.
"It isn't a dog, it's a box!" replies the old man.
"Oh, I'm sorry," says the policeman, "I thought you were
simple-minded."
The old man walks past the cop, then turns to his box,
and says, "We sure fooled him that time, didn't we, Rover?"
