What's An Ogie Kanogie?

Buying Clothes in a Tough Economy
While it seems everyone has put frivolous purchases on hold, two moms have launched a new business that
comes just at the right time for thinner pocketbooks.
OgieKanogie.com is a new line of women's clothing that's hitting the market with an impressive collection of
14 coat styles.

The Ogie Difference
Affordability: $130-$260 with online promo codes available for a percentage off.
Versatility: Take 'em out on the town or out on the bleacher seats.
Machine Wash-Say NO to dry cleaning!
Quality: Made in the USA.
The Feel: Most styles are so super-soft you'll want to wear them 24/7.
Stylish: Compliments will abound.

So...What's an Ogie?
Ogie Kanogie owners Jamie Hormel and Massiel Bueno spent the last couple of years designing coats and
jackets that would fit their busy lifestyles. The two moms-friends since childhood-included their kids every
step of the way, gathering their input on styles, fit, fabrics and even the company name.

Between living in San Diego and the desert of Arizona, the group knows well the
bone chilling evenings and the cool overcast mornings by the shore. They got tired of freezing in restaurants,
feeling like icebergs in movie theaters and visiting indoor malls set at subzero temperatures.

The idea was to create the perfect line of coats and jackets. They had to be soft and exceedingly
comfortable. They wanted to be able to wear them anywhere-sitting in the sand, on the grass or in the
bleacher seats. Yet, the coats had to look great on the college campus, in the countryside or in the greatest
cities of the world. In other words, Ogies had to be machine washable, durable, versatile and great looking.

Ogie Owners Consider Economy & Unemployment
Jamie and Massiel also wanted their products to be reasonably priced, so everyone could have the perfect
Ogie for any occasion, all year long. Among all of their priorities, Jamie and Massiel thought it important to
have Ogies made in the USA, doing their part to help keep jobs here. Every Ogie pattern is cut and sewn in
Los Angeles, California. Jamie and Massiel are proud to offer superior quality at reasonable prices in today's
market.

Next up:
Ogie Hoodie Dresses are coming soon!

Massiel Bueno is a mother of two and resides in Los Angeles, CA. When she's
not working you can usually find her surfing.

Jamie Hormel is a mother of three kids, five dogs, a pot bellied pig, two miniature goats, and some horses.
She lives in Phoenix, Arizona

National Institute of Marriage's Marriage Counseling programs

Do you know that the national divorce rate is around 50 percent? If that is the case then it is easy to see that marriage is something that is not easy. In fact, it is pretty hard to maintain a marriage. And the statistics show that a lot of people end up giving up and actually end the marriage in stead of working on it. Well, the National Institute of Marriage thinks that does not have to be the way that it is. In fact, the National Institute of Marriage's Marriage Counseling programs offer a way for people that are having problems in their marriage to work through them in a way that ends in a positive result. With the help of the National Institute of Marriage's Marriage Counseling programs couples are able to get the help that they need so that they can work through their problems and be able to actually stay together, even though that might be a bit harder than just giving up and calling it a day. Instead the National Institute of Marriage's Marriage Counseling programs are there to help people to take the hard road and actually work on the relationship so that in the end things will be better than they were. If you are interested in the program that I am talking about then why not look down below and read the press release that is listed below where you can get some additional info.



With the national divorce rate around 50%, there is no doubt that many marriages run into communication problems at some point. There is a communication epidemic. The National Institute of Marriage has created marriage counseling programs and resources utilizing a structure that is the most powerful format they have found for helping couples who feel stuck and hopeless. They have designed several programs to help couples move past the barriers and experience the marriage of their dreams.
NIM's Intensive Marriage Counseling Programs are unique from weekly marriage counseling in three distinctive ways:

· Intensive Marriage Counseling Format: Committing to an extended amount of concentrated time like the 2 or 4 day Marriage Intensive allows people to get to the root of the problem and stick with it in order to work through it. If you’ve been in traditional marriage counseling before, you may have experienced how you spend the first half catching up from the week before, the second half getting into the real issues, and then the time is gone. The Intensive format is designed so that people have the chance to go deeper without many of the other distractions of daily life and have enough discuss to consider solutions.

· Efficiency: One of the first steps in the process is an extensive assessment with some questionnaires. This allows the therapists to gather background information and can get an idea of the best strategy to proceed before you arrive for your session.

· Marriage Counselors: The counselors at the National Institute of Marriage are specialists in this area. One analogy we like to use is that of the Mayo Clinic: people go to their regular physician but may be sent to a specialist to work with specific areas. The NIM marriage therapists have been trained in this format to maximize its effectiveness. Also, the NIM marriage counseling programs provide the perspectives and insight of two professionals rather than one.
If you are considering divorce, you must try the National Institute of Marriage before giving up. They have developed a continuum of care that meets couples wherever they may be in their relationship. Regardless of the health of their marriage they have a service that can help couples improve their marital satisfaction. Visit their website at http://www.nationalmarriage.com. Read the incredible testimonies from the couples that saved their marriages by attending a Marriage Intensive at the National Institute of Marriage.

Autism Support Network Launches, Offers Free Online Support Community

Thousands around the world already connecting, sharing guidance and help

October 21, 2008. Autism Support Network today announced the launch of its free online support community available at www.AutismSupportNetwork.com. The online service – rapidly growing with already thousands of members around the world – connects families and individuals touched by autism spectrum disorder (ASD) with each other, provides support and insight, and acts as a resource guide for treatments, strategies and therapies.

Key features of the community include matching those members seeking similar support with one another, the ability to create appointments virtually or in actual locations between members, community groups for open sharing of information, user blogs, chat and capabilities for members to host and share personal photos and documents. The Autism Support Network also includes resource listings across the United States, Canada, England and India.

"Parents frequently feel paralyzed and isolated when they discover their child has autism. Those adults who have autism themselves also frequently find it difficult to engage socially with others for support," said Brian Field, co-founder of Autism Support Network. "Whether you’re a parent whose child has autism, a medical practitioner or someone with autism, our global community was created to facilitate an exchange of ideas, help and interactive discussion. Those dealing with ASD needn't have to 're-invent the wheel' – they can find others here that have likely experienced what they’re going through and can help provide personal guidance."

Today 1 in 150 children is diagnosed with autism, with a new case diagnosed every 20 minutes and is the fastest-growing developmental disability in the United States today. More children will be diagnosed with autism this year than with AIDS, diabetes & cancer combined. Autism is characterized by impaired social interaction, problems with verbal and nonverbal communication, and unusual, repetitive, or severely limited activities and interests. Other ASDs include Asperger syndrome, Rett syndrome, childhood disintegrative disorder, and pervasive developmental disorder not otherwise specified (usually referred to as PDD-NOS). Males are four times more likely to have autism than females.

Yesterday on the radio Taylor Swift did confirm she dated Joe Jonas. And that they broke up. But you know the reason why? Apparently the manager of the Jonas Brothers did not want Taylor & Joe dating or seen in public together. Why? Because they are sex symbols and if they are dating someone it hurts that image! Wtf?

get great deals on black friday

You know what I love? I really love getting great deals on things. And I also hate paying retail for pretty much every thing. So I am always on the lookout for ways that I can save money and get the things that I want and need at prices that I think are pretty awesome.

Traditionally people head out to the malls and what not the day after Turkey Day and get in line super early to get the rare deals. But thanks to the web I can get my deals on line and not have to get up super early and wait in line at the mall. I am stoked about saving on my fave store - Bath and Body Works. I need some awesome Bath and Body Works deals this year so that I can stock up my fave scents for my lotions, body sprays and body washes. And best of all I do not even have to leave home to do it. And I can even do it in my pjs, which is super sweet. If you want to save some cash I suggest you do your shopping from home on black friday like me this year!

I mean, that sounds like a problem that I would really like to have. What about you? Sounds like a nice problem, eh?

Yay for Black Friday

You know, I am not a big fan of shopping in general. And I am certainly no fan of going to the mall just for fun. I am not the type of person that like to go out to the small and spend a whole Saturday there just shopping with all of the other peeps that are out and about. And the last thing I want to do is to go out when all of the other people are out and about. And that means that I am not the sort of person that goes out shopping at the crack of dawn with all of the other people on black friday. That is why I am a big fan of Black Friday websites that show you all of the ads of the retailers - like Sears specials - so that you can do your Black Friday shopping from the comfort of your own home. And that is pretty freaking awesome. You get the great deals and steals on things that come with Black Friday shopping and you do not have to deal with all of the people that are out fight over the last Elmo or what ever. You can just fight them on the web! And the best part of doing Black Friday on the web is that you can still get the deals from your fave stores! How freaking awesome is that? And I am talking about everything from Best Buy to Borders Book Store to Sears. So you need to check out iblackfriday.com today so that you can get all excited and prepared for Black Friday this year. I know that I am gearing up for it now and you should too!

Where would you look for a graduate job?

If you are in college right now then there is likely to be one thing that is for sure on your mind. What is that thing that I am talking about? No it is not graduation! It is that you will have to get a real world job once you are done with your schooling. For a lot of students that is something that is scary and for some students it is something that they actually seem to look forward to. But no matter how you might be feeling about having to go out and get a job once your stint in college is over there is one thing for certain. And that thing is that it is likely to be a bit of a difficult search no matter where you are due to the current state of the economy all over the world. Yes in fact countries all over the globe are suffering from some sort of economic downturn and that makes it hard for graduates like you to land a decent job once you are out of school.

Are you a school leaver?

Are you someone that is still in school and trying to decide what you want to do when you get done with your schooling? Well if you are in the United Kingdom and Europe then you are most likely thinking about taking off a year, which I think is called a gap year over there. Here in the United States we do not do that sort of thing, but boy do I wish we did! It would have saved me a lot of money on school since I went to college right out of high school and entered into a major at the time that I thought I wanted to do. Turns out I was not as interested in completing a degree in that major like I thought that I was. And it also turns out that I no longer wanted to attend that particular school for the remaineder of my schooling. So if I had been a school leaver and taken a gap year then it would have been a lot of help for me and saved me a lot of money that was spent on education that was kind of a waste of money when you look back. Well, if you are in search of some great school leaver advice and information then I have just the site for you to check out. You can find it at Your Career Guide - a United Kingdom based site that offers up some great advice for school leavers. The site is super easy to use and it also offers up a lot of great info and resources for people just like you that are doing the whole school leaver thing. So be sure to head on over and check it out today. You will be so glad that you did!

CYDCOR Launches Volunteer Day

CYDCOR, the leading provider of outsourced, face-to-face sales teams, has introduced CYDCOR Cares - Volunteer Day, a new internal program to encourage team members to get more involved in their local communities*

Westlake Village, CA (PRWEB) April 26, 2008 -- CYDCOR, the leading provider of outsourced, face-to-face sales teams, has introduced CYDCOR Cares - Volunteer Day, a new internal program to encourage team members to get more involved in their local communities.

The company's new CYDCOR Cares Volunteer Day benefit provides eight hours paid time off annually to its team members, giving them the opportunity to donate their time and talents to non-profit, community or charitable organizations of their choice.

"CYDCOR is dedicated to giving back and getting involved with charitable causes - it is food for our company's soul,'' said Gary Polson, chief executive officer for CYDCOR.

Volunteer Day extends CYDCOR's culture of community involvement. Since 2007, CYDCOR has maintained a relationship with Casa Pacifica, a residential treatment facility in Camarillo for abused, neglected and emotionally disturbed children. Employees have helped organize its community donations, and CYDCOR recently donated $2,500 to support the Casa Pacifica's programs.

10 Blog Traffic Tips

In every bloggers life comes a special day - the day they first launch a new blog. Now unless you went out and purchased someone else''s blog chances are your blog launched with only one very loyal reader - you. Maybe a few days later you received a few hits when you told your sister, father, girlfriend and best friend about your new blog but that''s about as far you went when it comes to finding readers.

Here are the top 10 techniques new bloggers can use to find readers. These are tips specifically for new bloggers, those people who have next-to-no audience at the moment and want to get the ball rolling.

It helps if you work on this list from top to bottom as each technique builds on the previous step to help you create momentum. Eventually once you establish enough momentum you gain what is called "traction", which is a large enough audience base (about 500 readers a day is good) that you no longer have to work too hard on finding new readers. Instead your current loyal readers do the work for you through word of mouth.

Top 10 Tips

10. Write at least five major "pillar" articles. A pillar article is a tutorial style article aimed to teach your audience something. Generally they are longer than 500 words and have lots of very practical tips or advice. This article you are currently reading could be considered a pillar article since it is very practical and a good "how-to" lesson. This style of article has long term appeal, stays current (it isn’t news or time dependent) and offers real value and insight. The more pillars you have on your blog the better.

9. Write one new blog post per day minimum. Not every post has to be a pillar, but you should work on getting those five pillars done at the same time as you keep your blog fresh with a daily news or short article style post. The important thing here is to demonstrate to first time visitors that your blog is updated all the time so they feel that if they come back tomorrow they will likely find something new. This causes them to bookmark your site or subscribe to your blog feed.

You don''t have to produce one post per day all the time but it is important you do when your blog is brand new. Once you get traction you still need to keep the fresh content coming but your loyal audience will be more forgiving if you slow down to a few per week instead. The first few months are critical so the more content you can produce at this time the better.

8. Use a proper domain name. If you are serious about blogging be serious about what you call your blog. In order for people to easily spread the word about your blog you need a easily rememberable domain name. People often talk about blogs they like when they are speaking to friends in the real world (that''s the offline world, you remember that place right?) so you need to make it easy for them to spread the word and pass on your URL. Try and get a .com if you can and focus on small easy to remember domains rather than worry about having the correct keywords (of course if you can get great keywords and easy to remember then you’ve done a good job!).

7. Start commenting on other blogs. Once you have your pillar articles and your daily fresh smaller articles your blog is ready to be exposed to the world. One of the best ways to find the right type of reader for your blog is to comment on other people’s blogs. You should aim to comment on blogs focused on a similar niche topic to yours since the readers there will be more likely to be interested in your blog.

Most blog commenting systems allow you to have your name/title linked to your blog when you leave a comment. This is how people find your blog. If you are a prolific commentor and always have something valuable to say then people will be interested to read more of your work and hence click through to visit your blog.

6. Trackback and link to other blogs in your blog posts. A trackback is sort of like a blog conversation. When you write a new article to your blog and it links or references another blogger''s article you can do a trackback to their entry. What this does is leave a truncated summary of your blog post on their blog entry - it''s sort of like your blog telling someone else’s blog that you wrote an article mentioning them. Trackbacks often appear like comments.

This is a good technique because like leaving comments a trackback leaves a link from another blog back to yours for readers to follow, but it also does something very important - it gets the attention of another blogger. The other blogger will likely come and read your post eager to see what you wrote about them. They may then become a loyal reader of yours or at least monitor you and if you are lucky some time down the road they may do a post linking to your blog bringing in more new readers.

5. Encourage comments on your own blog. One of the most powerful ways to convince someone to become a loyal reader is to show there are other loyal readers already following your work. If they see people commenting on your blog then they infer that your content must be good since you have readers so they should stick around and see what all the fuss is about. To encourage comments you can simply pose a question in a blog post. Be sure to always respond to comments as well so you can keep the conversation going.

4. Submit your latest pillar article to a blog carnival. A blog carnival is a post in a blog that summarizes a collection of articles from many different blogs on a specific topic. The idea is to collect some of the best content on a topic in a given week. Often many other blogs link back to a carnival host and as such the people that have articles featured in the carnival often enjoy a spike in new readers.

To find the right blog carnival for your blog, do a search at blogcarnival.com.

3. Submit your blog to blogtopsites.com. To be honest this tip is not going to bring in a flood of new readers but it''s so easy to do and only takes five minutes so it''s worth the effort. Go to Blog Top Sites, find the appropriate category for your blog and submit it. You have to copy and paste a couple of lines of code on to your blog so you can rank and then sit back and watch the traffic come in. You will probably only get 1-10 incoming readers per day with this technique but over time it can build up as you climb the rankings. It all helps!

2. Submit your articles to EzineArticles.com. This is another tip that doesn’t bring in hundreds of new visitors immediately (although it can if you keep doing it) but it''s worthwhile because you simply leverage what you already have - your pillar articles. Once a week or so take one of your pillar articles and submit it to Ezine Articles. Your article then becomes available to other people who can republish your article on their website or in their newsletter.

How you benefit is through what is called your "Resource Box". You create your own resource box which is like a signature file where you include one to two sentences and link back to your website (or blog in this case). Anyone who publishes your article has to include your resource box so you get incoming links. If someone with a large newsletter publishes your article you can get a lot of new readers at once.

1. Write more pillar articles. Everything you do above will help you to find blog readers however all of the techniques I’ve listed only work when you have strong pillars in place. Without them if you do everything above you may bring in readers but they won’t stay or bother to come back. Aim for one solid pillar article per week and by the end of the year you will have a database of over 50 fantastic feature articles that will work hard for you to bring in more and more readers.

I hope you enjoyed my list of traffic tips. Everything listed above are techniques I’ve put into place myself for my blogs and have worked for me, however it''s certainly not a comprehensive list. There are many more things you can do. Finding readers is all about testing to see what works best for you and your audience and I have no doubt if you put your mind to it you will find a balance that works for you.
