Flip Chart Color

* Black, blue and green inks have the greatest visibility.

* Blue is the most pleasing color to look at with red coming in second (note: pleasing to look at and visibility are not the same)

* Do not do the whole chart in red ink.

* Avoid purple, brown, pink and yellow inks.

* Permanent markers give the most vivid color but dry out faster if you leave the cap off. They also frequently bleed thru to the next page. Forget trying to get the ink out of your clothes.

* Water colors are less vivid and squeak when you write. Ink will wash out of clothing.

Use Color Thoughtfully

* Use bright colors for small graphics to make them stand out.

* Use subtle colors for large graphics so they don’t overwhelm.

Use Color Psychologically

According to Greg Bandy in “Multimedia Presentation Design for the Uninitiated” certain colors evoke certain emotions.

* RED = Brutal, Dangerous, Hot, Stop!

* DARK BLUE = Stable, Trustworthy, Calm

* LIGHT BLUE = Cool, Refreshing

* GRAY = Integrity, Neutral, Mature

* PURPLE = Regal, Mysterious

* GREEN = Organic, Healthy, New life, Go Money

* ORANGE / YELLOW = Sunny, Bright, Warm

* WHITE (if I make the example white you couldn’t see it) = Pure, Hopeful, Clean

* BLACK = Serious, Heavy, Profitable, Death Since “death” is a pretty heavy way to end this section, I will give you a reference to find out more about outstanding visual design.

I’m not going to lie to you. Submitting articles on the web gets two thumbs down, and here’s why.

If you plan on doing it right, you’ve got a lot of work ahead of you. I mean a LOT!

Whether you’re writing your own articles or submitting for a client, your ultimate goal is to be seen in prestigious places. That means high-ranking sites. That means sites where business prospects who are willing to pay for your services frequently lurk.

Here are five things that you MUST do to get your articles out into circulation (and five things that make this one SUCKY job!)

1. Research the best article sites.

Before you start typing into that submission box, DO YOUR HOMEWORK. Sleuth out the best article sites on the web. Tipoffs: Author names that you recognize - and respect! Working links. An attractive design, sensible navigation. Living, breathing human beings ready to email you back with answers to your questions.

2. Update your list frequently.

It feels good to have one of those multi-page article site lists in your hands. But upon closer inspection, you may come to learn that at least a third of the URLs in your article site list don’t work. Article sites spring into existence with a finger-snap… and then drop out of sight just as quickly! An outdated list means you wasted your time. Stay ahead of the article game as best you can!

3. Keep track of your submission info.

Every article site is different. Some ask for a “username.” Others request an email address. Some require that you type in a password, others generate the password for you. Are you getting a sense of how confusing this can become when doing bulk article submissions? What about a client who asks tons of questions? Take notes: “Site X doesn’t accept HTML formats.” Record and store your user info for each site.

4. Organize your files.

Article submission varies drastically from one site to the next. You’ll need to have two versions of every article - one Plain Text and one HTML-Formatted. If you change one word of one article, both versions must also be edited. Let article maintenance go by the wayside, and you’ll be sending some way confused drafts out into circulation!

5. Store your personal information.

Some sites ask for an author photo, others do not. Many accept URLs - sometimes from more than one website! If you’re bulk-submitting for a client, this brings a ton of questions to mind. Even the author biographies vary. You’ll need to keep several bios on file - one extended bio containing several paragraphs, one brief “generic” bio, and then any bio that’s part of an “article marketing campaign” where you might feature a special promotion or link to a sales page/sign-up box.

If you don’t have the time to invest in article efficiency, you can always stick to just one, two or three article submission sites. But the truth is, you’re short-changing yourself if you do this. The more top-quality sites you submit to, the more top-quality content-seekers will showcase your work on their sites and in their email newsletters.

I believe that if you’re going to do something, you should do it right and do it all the way… or don’t do it at all. That’s why I’m strongly suggesting to you now, to PAY SOMEONE ELSE to organize your article submissions. You will not believe the time, effort and confusion of mass-submitting on the web. This is a FULL-TIME JOB that’s best handled by an expert. Think about this: do you want to spend hours, days and weeks trying to keep up with your web articles? Or do you want to focus on offering the best service to your customers? The choice is yours.

Seems like every where you turn, someone is creating yet another article directory begging you to submit your articles to them. The only person you are helping by submitting your content to newbie article directories are the article directory owners themselves - because they are too new to have any traffic yet to give back to you in exchange for your valuable time.

Here’s a checklist to help you determine if an article directory is worth your time to submit to or not:

[ ] Have they been in business for more than a year? Bonus points for those that have been in business for 5 or more years. Directories that are less than 6 months old are often still in the sandbox yet, meaning they don’t have any traffic traction.

[ ] Can you figure out within 10 seconds of surfing their site who actually owns or is in charge of the site? Article directory owners that hide themselves from the public should be a sign that they don’t want to be found.

[ ] Do they respond within 24-48 hours of your email requests? Did your email to them bounce back undeliverable?

[ ] Does the article directory have more than 1,000-5,000 authors listed? Sites with less than 1,000 authors are still cutting their teeth on being a directory owner.

[ ] Does it appear that the article directory was built with article bot scraped content? You can easily tell by looking for the unconverted MS word smartquotes within articles that are listed on the site. There is no honor in having your articles side by side of scraped content.

[ ] Is the article directory human powered vs. fully automated? Any article directory that is fully automated is usually a sign that the owner doesn’t intend to police the quality of the content.

[ ] Do they provide RSS feeds, email alerts, forward to a friend function and other strategies to increase the distribution of your articles? Do they have thousands of members of their own double opt-in mailing lists to promote your articles?

[ ] Are they responsible with the advertising clients they have on their site? ie: No popups, no exit pops, no ‘punch the monkey’ ads?

[ ] Do they provide article reports to help you see which articles are getting traction or not?

[ ] Service based mentality: Do they have it or not?

[ ] Bottom line: After you’ve submitted to the article directory, does it generate traffic back to your site or not? Do you find your article distributed to other niche websites or do your articles get picked up by email newsletter publishers?

The reason you make your articles available for syndication is because you want to improve your targeted web traffic, enhance your credibility, drive leads to your products, grow your email list and more!

Unfortunately, you don’t have unlimited time in your day to submit your articles to every newbie article directory that begs for your attention. Prioritize the best article sites that meet or exceed the above criteria to help determine which ones should get your valuable attention. It is better to submit 100 articles to a top quality article directory or niche site than it is to submit (1) article to 100 directories.

Indian are the most different people on earth. We harbor so much of color, race, religion and caste prejudice. If we look at the matrimonial columns, we will see the difference. So many castes, religions and subdivisions we have and how much role play in choosing one’s life partner. From here you will realize that the despite the teachings of religious reformers from the time of Gautam Budha, Kabir, Nanak, and the Mahatama Gandhi, still caste system prevails in India. Lower castes are still looked down in India and suffer lot of discriminations and humiliations. The legislations we have made and reservation given, have not achieved their desired results. They are able to produce only marginal results. We can see the manifestation of this problem in wide spread violence in Punjab and Haryana.

What is more distressing is that our people carry the load of prejudices even when they go abroad. They stick to their on religious and linguistic groups. They develop their children in their value and marry them in their caste and country. They try very less to mingle with people of those countries where they are. Where the people of most these countries are very accepting and warm. Where as at the same time they are the loudest in protesting against the racial discrimination

By interacting with the America, England Canadian friends, who complain that do their best to be friend with Indians. They invited Indians for their home and sight seeing. There extended friendship hand is rarely grasped. We know many Indians who have become American, British or Canadian , however they hardly bothered to be friend with the people their and accept the values of those countries. But they are there to get the all benefits of that state. In this time Indians have to come out of their shell and accept other realities.

Playing poker online is a game of calculation, where tactics win battles. The Art of War states, “The general who wins a battle makes many calculations before the battle is fought. The general who loses makes few calculations beforehand. Thus, many calculations lead to victory, and lack of calculations to defeat.”

It profits any poker player or player of casino games to mind this advice and learn basic calculations for figuring the outs and pot odds for every hand played when playing poker online. Outs are the number of cards left in the deck that can complete a winning hand. Pot odds calculate the probability of hitting the hand in relation to how much the pot is worth. Being able to calculate outs and odds is absolutely an essential skill for winning at poker.

In addition to determining outs and odds, players must also consider classic poker tactics, like slow playing a monster hand, bluffing against weak players, and leveraging position at the table. These are also part of the intense calculation that poker players must continually make.

Think before you act. Know the odd you are up against. Determine the best situation for a bluff or check raise. All these calculated tactics must come into your play. Remember and heed Sun Tzu’s advice to generals: “Ponder and deliberate before you make a move.”

Do you have problems finding ideas for articles and speeches?

I know have had at times, and others tell me the same thing. At my Toastmasters club, for example, I’ve often heard members say they have difficulty finding topics for speeches.

But, I’ve learned, like others who write and speak a lot, to start with what I know. To use my own experiences or perspectives to make even a simple subject uniquely my own. And you can do the same.

Indeed, what seems mundane to you may fascinate someone else. Suppose, for example, you work in a fast food restaurant — tell me about the best and worst customers, or tell me about the processes and training that make it possible to go from order to delivery in just a couple of minutes.

Here’s a real-life example from my own experiences. I have a part-time job as a directory assistance operator for a telephone company, and that produces some interesting stories, like the time a woman called because the door knob to exit her borrowed apartment was broken, and she couldn’t figure out how to get out. She didn’t know who to call except Directory Assistance, and we had an interesting time figuring out a solution. Now there’s a story to get an article or speech started, and perhaps even a theme such as “Strange but true stories from a directory assistance operator.”

Then, there’s the idea of providing insights for others. If you drive a truck, for instance, you might create a Top Ten list of common mistakes you see on the streets and highways. As a professional driver, you have special insight into the patterns of amateur drivers.

Beyond your personal experiences, think about issues that intrigue you. If you’re interested, doing research and thinking about a subject will be enjoyable and easy. Perhaps you can even satisfy your own curiosity as you prepare an article or speech that enlightens someone else.

These approaches should lead you to any number of story ideas. Make a list, of say five or ten possible topics. Now, ask yourself which of them will be the most enjoyable or easiest to develop. You also might ask yourself if you have enough examples to illustrate the points that fall under a specific topic.

Now, write an outline, to set out the main themes in your speech or article. By the time you finish outlining these themes, you’ll probably have a number of new topics that could be developed into topics that stand on their own.

For example, looking back at the contents of this article so far, I see that discussing something others don’t know much about is one of the points. That would open the door to what I call the “Everybody knows” syndrome, the unfounded assumption that others know what we know. Perhaps you think that your parenting experiences are just like everyone else’s. Yet, your feelings may very well be unique and of great interest to other parents.

If all else fails, get ideas from others. For example, I subscribe to many online newsletters because I write a lot of articles myself. As potential story ideas come in I store them away in a folder, ready to be searched when I don’t have anything available in the top of my mind.

I can use the original article as the starting point, creating something new and unique by using my own experiences and ways of doing things. Or I can abstract someone else’s article in my own words, again creating something new in the process. In both cases, I’m creating something new based on my unique experiences or perspectives.

So, never be stuck for an idea for an article or speech! You already have enough experience and knowledge; it’s simply a matter of developing one of those ideas within that framework.

And here’s a bonus: If you’re writing or speaking about something that’s happened in your life, you won’t have to work hard to create the article or speech. Just follow the path through your memory.
