It amazes me the ignorance from which some people speak. I cannot believe what my ears hear when people say that Mormons are not Christians. What an ignorant tongue that utters such ignorant words. For your sweet information, the real name of the Mormon Church is The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Is not the name of Christ in the title name of the Church? They have Christ at the head of the Church. They believe that he speaks to their assigned prophet and tells them things that will benefit those who choose to follow what is told to them.
Having said this, I would really appreciate people to become educated in that matter.

While Obama is breaking down the walls of racism McCain is building them. He did not choose Romney because of his religion. He knew his chances of winning would be shot if he did that. Not to say that he is also trying to gain the vote of the followers of
Clinton to win the election. What a crazy game. That is what McCain is all about. While Obama has a sincere desire to help Americans, McCain is only in for the ride.
It even seemed to me that Sarah Palin didn’t really have that much interest in running with McCain. What a big mess. Amazing.

Today, I have been thanking a lot, a think more than usual, at least lately. Sometime I feel sad, sometimes more hopeful, at times I wonder if things are going to work out. I try not to doubt myself. I believe so many of my fears come from ignorance in life. Lawyers seem very assertive people and doctors as well. I attribute it to the much knowledge they have in what they do. I guess they lived their own personal fears, and might still. Who knows, it is a very individual thing.
Carefully, I try to analyze why I’m scared or of what. And it seems almost impossible to pin point to it. Sometimes I like to think that I am not scared, just stressed. Maybe fears become stress. That’s it. What do you think? That might be the answer. I know that when I go for a walk to walk my dog that after I feel a lot better. Physical strength sure gives us a lot of mental strength. I am just plain scared of mean, stupid, irrational people. The kind of people who would jump off a bridge and thank he is the winner for killing himself. Or the kind of people that use a child as a suicide bomber. Sometimes I wonder. How can one even sleep at night in such a world? Thank positive tend to be the answer. I will look forward to the good of tomorrow. Good night to you dear reader.

While Obama has no exceptional political background, he does have an exceptional understanding of the hardship that many people deal with every day in this country. And the reason being, is because he has been through it himself. I do believe he is very full of hope and good will towards men, but I do know that even with all his desire and effort it is going to be a very hard climb in his life’s career. He might be able to start a change in this country, which is going to be unprecedented, but I believe that even if he is president for 8 years it is going to be hard to put into place all that he desires. I fully support him and want to do everything in my power to help him, help this country, but there are many people out there who have alternative agendas and have no desire to help anyone else other than themselves. My roommate fears that Obama will be killed by racist people. I don’t think it will get to that point. She is worried about the KKK people and what they are capable of doing to Obama. I see her concern, but I believe in the goodness of the people of this country, regardless of racist people. By electing Obama for president, the United States will demonstrate to the world that we already are a changed nation. We are not the racist country this nation use to be. We are going to demonstrate to the world that we are a changed nation proving our ways of freedom to everyone. And by allowing Obama to become president we will show the world that we truly believe in freedom, no matter if you are African American. Go Obama, we love you! Blessed be this nation, and blessed be you and your family. He will fight for our voice to be heard. It is a time of change! Go Obama, Go!

I had a wonderful date with a young man from my local church yesterday. I was waiting outside the house with my beautiful dog Henry. He is a Welsh Corgi. So Brian, my date, drove up in –what looked to me— a brand new amazing white Dodge truck. I happily introduced my dog to him. He, both of them, enjoyed meeting each other. After leaving Henry back in the house, I walked towards the car to find Brian opening the car door for me. He is so nice. We drove, talked, and laughed on the way to mini-golf. We had a great time playing. We really got to know each other more. That was really good.
Then we went to Letherby’s to have ice-cream and I got to see Darci, my old roommate from my college days at BYU. I had a big serving of
Rocky Road
. It is my favourite ice-cream. I couldn’t stop laughing. I was laughing to not cry by how nice he was to me. Then he drove me home, we hugged and he said: “See you on Sunday”.
After thanking I was wondering if during church I am suppose to sit by him. I really like this guy. We are both 29. He is so sweet. Big teddy bear. I can’t wait to be with him again.

In many companies, more every day, there is a great lack of training. People don’t care to teach others, when people go to work they don’t want to get involved in doing more than they are suppose to, they do their minimal effort. This creates a great level of frustration among newcomers in any work environment.
Many people work in environments or jobs they don’t feel happy in or with. Having a hard time dealing with co-workers, and or bosses. The less a person has to deal with another person the happier it makes them. All this escalates to anger in the work place.
But in reality, it is not ok to get angry, because it could cost you your job. More be a quiet submissive employee just trying to play the game at the work place rather than trying to apply your talents for the betterment of the company or workplace.
In another article I will speak about the Millennials. A new group of people in the workforce that are young and ambitious to share their talents with older generations that are not willing to change or move an extra finger for any innovative ideas.

I am most curious and would like to learn about how people use blogs to make sells. Do any of you bloggers know? I see a lot of adds asking for people to do marketing through blogs but I have no clue how to initiate that. I also see many people using Facebook and Myspace for marketing purposes and would like to know what does that mean or what is it that people do when they market through social channels. Also, I think I am going to try to put together a website about events in
Utah. I cannot find one website that mentions all the events. They are all scattered and sometimes you just find some random mentioning in a job ad on craigslist asking for people to work at that event. Amazing to me.

In order to excel in a blog you need to first write clear and with the paragraphs flowing together. No one likes choppy writing. You must write about interesting subjects that other people don’t write . That is easy to say but it seems that everyone has already written about any subject. And that might be true. What you have to do then is write about something far away from where you are publishing it. Say you write about a countries tragic news that happened in a little town. Many times those little “big tragic” news don’t make it out of that town. But would still make for a great blog entry where you are located. Writing an interesting blog takes research and knowledge that not to many other people have, or have written about. Find out what newspapers are in other countries. Try to find a page that can be translated automatically through Google or some other search engine. As I know Spanish it is easy for me to check the news from
Spain and be able to write about them in English. Much news that also happens in England never reaches our ears or eyes hear in the
US. We are too preoccupied with our own world to worry about what is happening there.

A person bought a computer on EBAY. That computer contained data of millions of bank customers. It had not been erased before it was sold. The information was found in the back up of the computer. The Bank involved says to be taking the matter seriously. Fortunately the information did not fall in any person’s hands that would have created havoc out of the very sensitive information found on the system. For more information about this incident you can visit the weblink to the BBC News. They will explain more about which Bank and who bought the computer and how it was sold by a third party.
My take on it is that no matter what company has your information we must really be alert in checking our credit history even 2 to 3 times a month. Human errors / or not so errors / are made by anyone and everyone these days. Don’t trust in the security promises of any institution.

Governor Huntsman said he will keep an eagle eye on this abuse of gas price in Utah. Different studies keep trying to excuse this outrageous economic abuse among the citizens of the state of Utah. In Utah they are charged on an average 30 cents more than other states. KSL radio in Utah has complained about this matter throughout the whole Summer and it probably finally got to the governor’s ears after almost going through a crazy summer with really high gas prices. On an average it was 50 cents higher than a normal economic increase through the nation. Personally, I have slowed down, and read several articles on the Internet on how to save Gas. I believe it is working for me.
