China heatwave causes deaths

(Vatican Radio) As aid agencies try to help North Koreans displaced by flooding, neighbouring China is continuing to suffer from an unusually severe heatwave. In Shanghai alone, at least 10 people are reported to have died.

Listen to Vatican Radio's regional correspondent Alastair Wanklyn's report...

The deaths are mostly attributed to heatstroke, as temperatures rose last month to at least 40 degrees in more than three dozen areas, China's state news agency said.

The city of Shanghai is having its hottest summer in 140 years.
Residents there heave been leaping into fountains to cool off.

In Sichuan province, state television reported 12,000 people had crammed into an indoor swimming pool.

Authorities are urging people to stay indoors if they can, as they believe the heatwave will continue for at least another week.

And there is a warning out over a tropical storm approaching China's southern coast and which could hit late on Friday. Authorities have urged fishing boats to keep out of its way.

Meanwhile, after weeks of flooding in North Korea, local reports say about 45,000 people have fled their homes. The Red Cross is trying to help.

"Many have had their existing dwelling totally destroyed, and their belongings are gone in the flood. So there's a need to help those families." says Marianna Steinberg of the Red Cross in Pyongyang.

The group has sent tankers of drinking water and is taking 500 tonnes of corn to the worst-hit region.

Washington Redskins player to get his 1991 626 restored by Mazda

Washington Redskins running back Alfred Morris loves his 1991 Mazda 626. And luckily for him, the automaker offered to restore it like new.

Affectionately called ?Bentley? by Morris, the old Japanese sedan has ran into its fair share of troubles over the years, yet their bond remains strong.

Mazda representatives contacted his agent and said they could have the 626 refurbished and fitted with modern extras like a navigation system and CD player, but ?nothing too lavish,? Morris apparently said.

The restoration process will take 6-8 weeks, and the young star hopes the car can run for about 20 more years.

Who ever said that football players don't have a soft side?

3 Online Sales Tips For Network Marketers in the Military ? Deanna ...

Good Morning Active duty military, Veterans and Military Spouses:

There are a great many members of the military community that are building businesses in the direct sales industry. ?Tuesdays are the days that I blog about business building tips that are just for you. ?Today?s topic is online sales tips for your direct sales business.

If you have missed these posts in the past, I?ll give you the links to them right here, just to make it convenient:

And, now today?s article:

The 21st century and the global recession have actually put the cat among the pigeons where small businesses are concerned, the direct sales industry included, however, there are plenty of straightforward no-cost and cheap solutions for small businesses to use to maintain and even increase market share.

As small shops and direct sellers find they can?t vie with giant conglomerates they inevitably fail, unless they can offer more to their customers. This is done by smart promoting and offering value and a better experience to the shopper.?So, what is the solution for direct seller to stay in this strong competition?

To sell products successfully, you have to be an expert and unique in what you do and provide best client services to attract and retain customers.?Those are just 3 of the things that gigantic box stores don?t offer: uniqueness, experience and buyer service.?It is surprising to discover that many direct sellers do not maximize the use of their replicated website. ??Here are three tips to maximize your company?s replicated website to sell more products:

• 1. ?Purchase a domain name, such as your own name at Godaddy.com and forward that name to your company?s replicated website. ?People are looking to buy from YOU, not your company. ?Step by step instructions on how to do this are included on the site.
• 2. ?Optimize your profile on the replicated website using words that your group of friends, customers and partners will recognize. ?For example, if you are marketing on a base and hoping to assist military families to make more money with your opportunity: ??I?m an USAF Military Spouse who loves to help other military spouses?..?
• 3. ?Maintain your own list of customers, not just the one on the company website. ?Just in case. ?Network Marketing company?s go under all the time and you want to keep your own Rolodex of past customers, just in case. ?I suggest using an auto-responder service such as Mail Chimp, Constant Contact or aWeber. ?Remember, if they are in the company?s database, they belong to the company, not to YOU.

Bonus tip: ?If you are in the Direct Sales Industry, brand yourself, not your opportunity. ?People want to buy from a person, not a title. Not to mention, should you choose to change companies, which happens frequently, you will have to build your brand from scratch! Who wants to do all that re-work?

If you?ve found these tips helpful, please leave me a comment on the blog. ?I look forward to hearing from you.

Have a prosperous week!

Gwyneth Paltrow 'believes that the English education ... - Celebitchy

Last year around this time, there were UK sources claiming that Gwyneth Paltrow and Chris Martin were preparing to move their family to LA. The claim was that Gwyneth was homesick and that she wanted to be closer to her mom and her brother Jake. Well, Goop and Chris DID buy a new home in LA, although they?ve spent much of the last year in London, like always. Now The Mail is reporting again that Goop wants to move her kids to LA so they can spend a few years getting an American education? but sources say Goop definitely wants Apple and Moses to go to high school/prep school in England because American schools are too peasanty. Basically.

She has lived in London for a decade and calls it her ?adopted home?, but Oscar-winner Gwyneth Paltrow is moving her family back to Los Angeles. The 40-year-old actress and her rock-star husband Chris Martin of Coldplay plan to make LA their home for at least the next two years. The family will move in time for their children Apple, nine, and Moses, seven, to start the school term in September.

A source said: ?Gwyneth has loved living in London but America will always be home and she wants to be closer to her family. Her mother and brother live in California and she plans to spend the next couple of years in Los Angeles while her children are young enough for their education not to be affected. She misses her family terribly and now is the time to move.?

?Her children have English accents and once they start senior school Gwyneth says the family will likely return to the UK because she believes that the English education system is second to none.?

Rumours have been rife for months that the family was planning to move back to California after they forked out ?6.6 million on an opulent new home in a private Hollywood Hills estate. The 8,000 square-foot house in the exclusive Brentwood area is the most expensive in the couple?s property empire which includes their ?4.6 million home in North London, a ?3.2 million penthouse flat in New York and a ?3.4 million house in the Hamptons near New York.

Designed by renowned US architect Windsor Smith the home has six bedrooms, eight bathrooms and a separate stable block. Paltrow, famed for her eco-friendly ways, even had an entrance hall made with stones recovered from a Peruvian schoolhouse.

Friends say Gwyneth longs to spend more time with her 70-year-old widowed mother Blythe Danner and her director brother Jake as well as friends like godfather Steven Spielberg: ?Gwyneth misses her family terribly and while she has grown to love London and her children have English accents, now is the time to move. The kids have said goodbye to their school friends and they are having a final European holiday before the big move.?

[From The Mail]

Granted, I had an American public school education and my mother is a public school teacher, so I have a bias about people disrespecting American education out of hand. I?m not saying that the American public school education isn?t broken in some cities, in some counties, or in some states, but I just think it?s wrong and unfair to dismiss the American education system out of hand. But beyond that, it?s not like Gwyneth is going to be sending her kids to public high school in America or England either way ? they?re going to be going to private schools, no matter what. And if she?s interested in having a debate about which country has the best PRIVATE schools? well, then I?ve got nothing. I have no idea. But I would be interested in seeing Moses Martin at Eton with all of the sons of dukes and earls and MPs. That would be interesting.
