[HM:255638] The Powerful Vitamin F :)

Why do I have a variety of friends who are all so different in character? How can I get along with them all? I think that each one helps to bring out a "different" part of me.

With one of them I am polite. I joke with another friend. I sit down and talk about serious matters with one. With another I laugh a lot. I listen to one friend's problems. Then I listen to another one's advice for me.

My friends are all like pieces of a jigsaw puzzle. When completed, they form a treasure box. A treasure of friends! They are my friends who understand me better than myself, who support me through good days and bad days. We all pray together and for each other.

Real Age doctors tell us that friends are good for our health. Dr. Oz calls them Vitamins F (for Friends) and counts the benefits of friends as essential to our well being. Research shows that people in strong social circles have less risk of depression and terminal strokes. If you enjoy Vitamins F constantly you can be up to 30 years younger than your real age. The warmth of friendship stops stress and even in your most intense moments it decreases the chance of a cardiac arrest or stroke by 50%. I'm so happy that I have a stock of Vitamins F!

In summary, we should value our friends and keep in touch with them. We should try to see the funny side of things and laugh together, and pray for each other in the tough moments.

Thank you for being one of my Vitamins

[HM:255637] 7 steps to great relationships

1. Respect People

Always talk to people with respect; speaking to them like you want to be spoken to. Be kind in your words and actions. Think before you speak, because once the words leave your mouth, they can't ever be taken back. Your words may be forgiven, but they will never be forgotten. When you speak harshly to someone, you put a small crack in that relationship. Too many small cracks and the relationship will crumble.

2. Be Loyal and Trustworthy

Be the kind of person that can always be counted on to do the right thing. Never do anything to betray that trust. Always be honest, and always temper your honesty with kindness. Let them know that they can always lean on you, and even their deepest secrets are safe. If you don't have trust in a relationship, you don't have anything to build on.

"A friend is one who walks in when others walk out" ~~ Walter Winchell

3. Put Others First – Be a Friend

I know it's not easy, but you need to put the needs of others first. By that very act you show how much you care, and how important that relationship is to you. When you enter a relationship with a heart that puts others first, you are blessed by the fruits that are grown from such an act. By showing a genuine interest in others, you show yourself a friend, and gain loyal, lifelong friends to yourself.

As Dale Carnegie said, "You can make more friends in two months by becoming interested in other people than you can in two years by trying to get other people interested in you.

"The only reward of virtue is virtue; the only way to have a friend is to be one." ~~ Ralph Waldo Emerson

4. Don't Try and Be Someone You're not

Always strive to be your best self, but never try and be someone you're not. Relationships built upon lies and distortions will never stand. Real friends are honest and upfront with each other. If you want to have a real friend, then be a real friend. Part of being a real friend is being yourself. If you want to impress someone, impress them with your kindness and friendship.

5. Don't Take People For Granted

I think this act probably causes more hurt, resentment, or weakening of friendships than any other. We go from enjoying someone's company, really appreciating all the things they do for us, and thinking about how great they are for the things they do. Then, let a little time go by, and we stop acknowledging the good things about them. We come to expect certain things that we considered special at one time. Don't do it, it's a relationship breaker. No one wants to be taken for granted.

6. Be Forgiving

What if the one being taken for granted is you? It hurts to feel like you're not appreciated. If we aren't vigilant in caring for our relationships, these things can easily happen. That's why it is important for us to look at others like Christ looks at us, with compassion and forgiveness.

Be sure to talk to the person taking you for granted. Don't let it build inside until the relationship is destroyed and irreparable. If they're a true friend they should apologize and be willing to change that.

Another trick to great relationships is good communications, and not holding grudges. Be forgiving as Christ is forgiving.

7. Be Positive and Encouraging

I love being around people who are positive and encouraging. It brings out the best in me and causes me to want to be positive and encourage to others. Can you think of a better emotional boost than to help put a smile on someone's face?

Dwelling on and being discouraged over problems will do nothing to make them better. We need to acknowledge the problem, tell that problem it's not going to define us, and then get to working finding a solution.

When someone you care about is down and hurting, you getting depressed with them will do nothing to help. What you need to do is show them compassion, be empathetic, and let them know you're there for them.

Then you need to lift them up. Help them to see some of the wonderful things about themselves and their life. Sometimes people just need to be reminded that they're special, and we believe in them even when they quit believing in themselves.

[HM:255636] ASUS: World’s First Dual-Screen Ultrabook

You haven't seen a Windows 8 hybrid like this. The ASUS Taichi makes it ridiculously easy to go from laptop to tablet mode. Just close the lid on this 11.6-inch Ultrabook and you'll find a second full HD screen with touch sitting right on the outside. It's definitely wild, and we couldn't wait to unbox one of the most unique laptops ever to share our initial impressions.

Not only can you use the Taichi as either a tablet or a traditional clamshell, but you can use both screens at the same time. That can be useful when you want to give a presentation, but don't want to keep turning the notebook around. Before we get to the pretty pictures, lets talk about the specs and features you get for your $1,299.

Specifications

Intel Core i5-3317U 1.7GHz Processor
3MB Cache
4GB DDR3 Memory
128GB Solid state Drive (SSD)
11.6″ IPS Full HD Dual LED-backlit TFT LCD Display (1920 x 1080, 16:9)
Intel HD Graphics 4000
Wi-Fi 802.11a/b/g/n WLAN
Bluetooth V4.0
10/100 MBps Ethernet LAN
Integrated HD + 5MP Dual Cameras (720p Video recording) & Array Microphone
Integrated Speaker with Sonic Master & Bang & Olufsen ICEPower
Illuminated Chicklet Keyboard
Connections: 2 x USB 3.0, Headphone-out & Audio-in Combo Jack, micro HDMI, mini VGA, 1 x Screen A Lock Bottom
Approximate Dimensions (WxDxH): 12.05 x 7.83 x 0.19 ~ 0.69 inches / 30.6 x 19.9 x 0.47 ~ 1.74 cm
Approximate Unit Weight: 2.8 pounds / 1.25 kg

The Taichi comes in an elegant matte black box, not unlike those we've seen from other premium notebooks. On the lid is printed ASUS TAICHI in black glossy ink.

Upon opening the box, the first thing on top is perhaps the most curious thing included, the ASUS Taichi Prestige Card. It comes in a small paper holder with the following statement:

Dear valued customers,

By choosing ASUS TAICHI and opening this box, you are embarking on a wonderful journey that will take you on an adventure in search of incredible. TAICHI embodies a fusion of advanced technology, meticulous craftsmanship, and thoughtful design. It represents our eforts to give you the means to go beyond the ordinary and explore new frontiers of experience and imagination. We are delighted that you made the decision to join us on this path, and are certain you will find TAICHI an enabler of many incredible moments.

With many thanks and best wishes,

Jerry Shen, ASUS CEO

On the back of the plastic Prestige Card is printed the following:

ASUS Taichi Exclusive Service

Complimentary intrastate pick up and return service (ed. note: Do they mean "interstate"?)
Priority service hotline
20% off for service charge (for hardware material cost of out-of warranty or exclusions from limited warranty service)
Wherever you go, ASUS is always with you.

That last line is either very comforting, or very unsettling.

Underneath the card is the Taichi itself, wrapped in clear plastic.

Unfortunately, the display on the inside does not have a touchscreen; the way we're holding the stylus may give that impression.

To the right is a small compartment that stores the power brick–which is about the size of those from ASUS' Android tablets–an active stylus (with AAA battery!), a VGA adapter, a USB-to-Ethernet adapter, and a small gray pouch to hold the adapters.

Underneath the notebook is a large gray pouch for the laptop itself, and underneath that is a small black box containing an LCD cleaning cloth–which will come in real handy with this system–a user manual, warranty card, and a cable tie.

That's all for now. Stay tuned for our full review of the ASUS Taichi.

[HM:255635] Story: The House of 1000 Mirrors

There was place known as the House of 1000 Mirrors.

A small, happy little dog learned of this place and decided to visit. When he arrived, he bounced happily up the stairs to the doorway of the house.

He looked through the doorway with his ears lifted high and his tail wagging as fast as it could. To his great surprise, he found himself staring at 1000 other happy little dogs with their tails wagging just as fast as his. He smiled a great smile, and was answered with 1000 great smiles just as warm and friendly. As he left the House, he thought to himself, "This is a wonderful place. I will come back and visit it often."

In this same village, another little dog, who was not quite as happy as the first one, decided to visit the house. He slowly climbed the stairs and hung his head low as he looked into the door.

When he saw the 1000 unfriendly looking dogs staring back at him, he growled at them and was horrified to see 1000 little dogs growling back at him. As he left, he thought to himself, "That is a horrible place, and I will never go back there again."

All the faces in the world are mirrors. What kind of reflections do you see in the faces of the people you meet?

[HM:255634] Two Rules for Keeping Employees Happy and Engaged

Every manager wants a team of dedicated employees. And yet, many bosses fail to do their part to make this happen. Here are two things you can do for your employees to earn their commitment:

Put their needs before yours. Treat them justly and do what's right for them and the organization, not just what works for you personally. Give them opportunities to excel, and provide support if they fail. Be willing to take personal risks for the right employee. This will generate loyalty for years to come.

Give them autonomy. Freedom can exponentially increase an employee's excitement. Make sure their passions align with the organizational direction, and give them some high-level boundaries, resources, and introductions to make it happen. Then remove obstacles and help them handle challenges. Most importantly, always give them credit for their success

Today's Management Tip was adapted from "Four Lessons From the Best Bosses I Ever Had" by Deborah Mills-Scofield.

[HM:255633] Story: Counting the countless

A Man Reached 70 Years Of Age

And He Faced A Disease ;

He Could Not Urinate.

The Doctors informed Him

That He Was in Need Of An Operation

To Cure This Disease.

He Agreed To Have The Operation

Done As The Problem Was Giving Him

Much Pain For Days.

When The Operation Was Completed,

His Doctor Gave Him The Bill

Which Covered All The Costs.

The Old Man Looked At The Bill

And Started To Cry.

Upon Seeing This The Doctor Told Him

That if The Cost Was Too High

Then They Could Make Some Other Arrangements.

The Old Man Said

I Am Not Crying Because Of The Money

But I Am Crying

Because The Lord Let Me Urinate

For 70 Years And He Never Sent Me A Bill
