Many of us in our later years (over 35:) seem to replay that movie in our heads of the life we could have led had we dared to believe in and pursue our dreams and goals. 

There was some typo error regarding the contact info for the spirit of networking award.  Please send your vote and a brief reason why you think the person should receive the award to:  karen.mcgraa@verizon.net.  Please do this soon so we can order the award which need to be engraved.  You have until the end of this week to put in your vote so I can have the award engraved in time.  I apologize for this confusion but was wondering why nobody but one was nominated so far. Thank you.

Today we have witnessed social media's power to change the world.  McLuhan's Global Village has arrived, we all are watching eachother.  In Cairo, the people's uprising about freedom and jobs was assisted by national social media as well as international media coverage and saved many lives according to Wael Ghonim, a Google exectutive and Egyptian activist.  The 18-day civilian revolt in Egypt was empowered by the use of twitter and other social media.

We like to think we make our decisions by careful thought, but most of our decisions come from our unconscious and are especially powerful when emotions are involved. Your attention is grabbed when the word "you" is used because your primitive brain cares about you, sex, food, and change in the environment often related to survival and fight or flight issues.

Do you or someone you know seem to keep re-losing the same weight? If so, I can relate. That is why I chose this as my doctoral dissertation. It's more than just less calories in and exercising more. Recent research has indicated that the ubiquitous cell phone may provide the needed support and accountability that makes the difference between success or failure.
