Medical Conditions and Insomnia
There are diseases and medical conditions that can cause insomnia. This is because they either cause physical discomfort or because of hormonal and metabolic imbalance. Anxiety is another factor that brings about insomnia. If you are always conscious and worrying about your disease, you are bound to lose sleep over it.Hypertension is a disease where the blood pressure is abnormally elevated. The incidence of this disease continues to rise. Before, this used to be found mostly in people with advanced age; but now it can be found even in children and young adults as well. This is attributed to the present lifestyle which became sedentary due to advances in technology. People in the present time eat more and move less and they are exposed to more stress at work, in school and from the environment. One of the symptoms of hypertension is neck pain or numbness and this can hamper sleep.Another disease that causes insomnia is asthma. The number of asthmatics are also increasing because of stress and environmental pollution. The thing about asthma is that it is related to the body’s biorhythm and is usually exacerbated in the evenings and early morning. And because they have difficulty breathing, they also cannot sleep.Hyperthyroidism prevents sleep because the high thyroid hormone levels keeps you hyped up even during the night when it should have gone down. Restlessness and tremors are felt even at night. Diabetes is another disease where you easily get hungry even if you eat a lot. You are also thirsty most of the time despite the amount of fluids you drank. Because you drink a lot of liquids, you tend to urinate a lot as well and this will wake you up in the middle of the night.Skin diseases like skin asthma, winter rash, and other pruritic skin conditions can prevent sleep because of the itchiness. Like asthma, it is worse at night and early morning. The worse thing is that the more you scratch, the more it itches, forming a vicious cycle.These are just some of the medical condition that can disrupt sleep and eventually cause insomnia. Treating them will help in reducing insomnia as well. If insomnia persists even after the cause is gone, it can be relieved by behavioural therapy and some over the counter drugs.
Emerging Technologies America Has Fallen Behind On
There are many new technologies from all over the world, including America. But the majority of these emerging technologies are hot technology that America doesn’t have. Japan has seemed to corner the market on many of the up and coming technologies such as ones that are connected to computers, consumer electronics and a host of other things that America needs to catch up on.According to the JD Power Asian Pacific 2007 Japan Automotive Study, eight of the 14 new technologies that draw predominantly high levels of consumer interests were either related to fuel economy, safety or the environment.It’s not the Japan is the only one who is working in the emerging technologies; it’s just that America is falling behind in their work within development of new technologies. Funding plays a major role in the fact that America is behind in the technology department when it comes to certain places emerging technology is needed, such as the medical community where monies need to be raised in order to sustain the research. Japan works with many different companies that fund their research in emerging technologies because these companies know how important it is to be on the cutting edge of the science and consumer technology front. Some American companies are starting to get on board when it comes to “going green” and saving the environment, because they know this is a growing concern of many Americans today.The study also found that technologies such as extra airbags in the automobiles the likes of which are knee airbags and anti-whiplash seats have garnered much interest among consumers worldwide. These implements are in place now in Japan however this is a life-saving technology America doesn’t have. They are working on it however they just don’t have it as yet.Japan’s emerging technologies in the IT – Information Technology and computers in general have surpassed America for a long time. Many of the gadgets and computer components that the American companies use today we purchased and received from overseas, simply because we do not have the technology to build these components ourselves. Japan, like many of the other Asian nations, have what it takes to build the emerging technologies to put together smarter, faster computers and technological gadgets such as smarter cell phones, iPods that you can watch full-feature movies on, digital watches and calculators that do a whole host of other things besides keep time and calculate numbers.The software industry is another place where Japan’s emerging technologies surpasses Americas. Many of these software programs come in the form of games but others have practical applications in the business world. Japan’s edge in the game world far surpasses Americas but we seem content purchasing Japan’s gaming technologies. However, America is working hard in the consumer technology industry to come up with better, faster and more efficient ways of doing things. The medical community is one place where America has outdone Japan; medical technology in America now surpasses most countries in developing technology related to medicine and health care.Both countries are far from finding cures for fatal diseases but they are getting close to developing technology that will help us bring cures to these once devastating diseases.
SEO Ripoff and How to Avoid Getting Ripped Off
You want SEO services but who can you trust to provide quality services?How do you avoid getting ripped off?We have seen it all with SEO and the truth is scary. There are big SEO companies all over like a plague and many are fly by night operations with little or no real world SEO experience. There is also an abundance of inexperienced individual scammers out there that have no real world SEO experience or knowledge in SEO but they have fooled many people and businesses that don’t know any better.We have had businesses come to us, after being ripped off by so called SEO experts, seeking help.One example is a new client that hired us and contacted us on a 3 way phone call so we could listen to what the BIG SEO company was offering to do. The SEO firm promised to make my client #1 on organic Google searches and stated they have special and secret relationship with Google. OK this sounds amazing but the fact of the matter is THIS IS IMPOSSIBLE and this SEO firm tried to rip another company off.To make things more interesting I called the SEO firm on my own and spoke to the same salesman I spoke to earlier via a 3 way phone call and picked his brain to see where the conversation would go. This so called Web Master told me each SEO expert they employ is responsible for managing the SEO for over 100 client websites because they are so awesome!I also asked them about Google AdWords which is something I also have extensive knowledge and experience with. I wanted to know how much do they charge to manage a small & simple Google AdWords accountant and they told me they charge per click instead of a flat rate to just manage the online marketing campaign. Not that I would ever consider outsourcing anything to them or anybody else, I was curious. I know and believe in the old saying if you want something done right do it yourself but that’s not so easy in these types of situations for people with no background or understanding of how SEO and the internet work.OK that’s just another way they choose to bill for a specific service and there is nothing wrong with that but when I asked how much do they charge for every click and they said $50. I researched the specific key words involved and Google wasn’t charging more than $5, yes five bucks, for the specific keywords we talked about.Talk about serious price gouging! And what is really sad, is many businesses fall for these types of scams because they don’t know any better or don’t know who to turn to for quality and sound advice.Not only did this SEO firm promise things that are impossible to guarantee, they demonstrated they are not capable of delivering the one on one attention to detail that is necessary to deliver quality SEO services, and their prices for shoddy work is way over priced. Now I am not saying good SEO comes cheap, because good SEO is very time consuming and requireds a lot of hard work, dedication, knowledge and, most importantly, real world SEO experience.So how do you find a good SEO consultant anyways?That’s a tough question to answer because good SEO consultants are usually very busy catering to their clients and know firsthand that good SEO requires paying serious attention to detail, and managing the SEO for 100 websites is a bad idea for just one SEO consultant.PICK UP THE PHONE and call him or her.The first thing you should be asking for is to meet the SEO consultant in person – face to face for a consultation. If they are not willing to meet you in person then STOP and keep looking.What if the SEO consultant is not near you, IE another state?Now things are different and meeting them in person is not so reasonable, but that’s ok.You can have a phone consultation and ask important questions.Not every SEO consultant will meet you in person for free, and there may be good reason for this. They are very talented individuals and their time is very valuable and most don’t want to deal with tire kickers – you know, the potential clients that ask endless questions seeking free advice, then never spend a dime.After you get that out of the way, ask to see some websites that the SEO consultant is responsible for. Ask to see natural – organic searches that bring up the websites. If the SEO guru can show you this and demonstrate their talent then you are on the right track to SEO success.Other questions to ask are how much do they charge? And what will they do for X amount of dollars? If the SEO consultant tells you they have special connections with Google or they own thousands of websites that can drive traffic to your website then WALK AWAY NOW!Other things to verify which you can do yourself are.Is the SEO consultant a real business?How long have they been in business?Do they have any professional references?Do they have their phone number on their own website? Or do they only communicate via email?MOST IMPORTANTLY, are they located within the United States?NEVER EVER under any circumstances hire a SEO consultant that does not reside in the United States for obvious reasons. Lack of communication skills, lack of legal – laws to protect you as a consumer, lack of quality support. Nothing is worse than being transferred to India when you need help fast.At the lease try to use common sense when in doubt and understand good SEO isn’t cheap.The old catch phrase I live by is cheap is not good and good is not cheap.This doesn’t mean just because the SEO consultant isn’t cheap that he or she is good.Now before you sign any contract or agree to a deal, find and pay a good business lawyer to review the contract to make sure you completely understand what the contract states and ask the business lawyer to clarify anything you may not understand. Spending a few hundred dollars to have a business lawyer review and edit the contract if necessary may save you thousands of dollars and prevent you from signing a bad contract.In conclusion you now know what to look for, what to ask and how to weed out the SEO scammers that are out there.GOOD LUCK with your quest for high quality SEO services!
Some Things Your Car Insurance Company Won’t Tell You
1. How to determine the value of “total loss.”Most companies will tell you that they use at least three methods or schemes to determine the actual totaled vehicle’s value, including value books, computer-generated quotes from dealers, and local market research. In this case, you will probably think that local area is your current neighborhood, but the insurer does not specifically define it. If, in any case, the company cannot find an auto replacement in your community, so they have to find it not from your “local area,” your totaled car’s value is certainly affected. For example, if you currently live in New York, replacing your totaled vehicle in suburbs will be cheaper than in the city. The insurance company will, of course, use quotes from suburbs area as the most-reasonably-priced estimates. The primary purpose in totaling a vehicle is to allow the consumer (the insured person) to purchase the same car that is totaled in an accident within the local market. Since they use three different schemes to figure out the real value of a totaled car, a consumer may end up with a cheaper car than the totaled one. It is impossible to be sure what value you will get when your company does not tell you how they determine it.Fortunately, you can do some smart methods to help yourself and your company to do the value determination. First, you have to produce valid proof that your car was in good conditions when the accident occurred; car in good condition has better value than a wreck. Bring a copy of maintenance records, including oil changes and inspection by an authorized mechanic. The records will tell your company that your auto was regularly maintained, meaning it was actually in great shape (in terms of appearance and performance) when the accident occurred. Moreover, you probably had special features installed such as a multimedia system, anti-theft system, anti-lock brakes, rearview camera, or 5-harness seat belt. The car insurance company may charge you more because of some special upgrades, so make sure that your insurer includes that in the evaluation.Another good thing is to find at least three dealers and get quotes on replacement from them; make sure all dealers in your local area or at least within short driving distance from your home. Present the quotes to your insurer and ask your insurer to provide a list of some car dealers who probably can afford a car for the price listed in the quotes. If you are not satisfied with the company’s value determination or you get less than you expect, you can choose to do mediation. So, meaning you present the case to a third party (neutral) to get help to settle the dispute or arbitration, or you can even request a formal inquiry to the court.2. If you want to cancel your policy, do it officiallyMost companies say that consumers can cancel their policies at any date, but you need to notify the insurer concerning the exact date you want to end the coverage. The statement is clear enough; in other words, it says consumers have to notify their companies when they want to cancel their policies. However, consumers often think that when they ignore the last bill before renewal, the company will automatically end the policy. Too bad, this is not how it is done. People can forget and deliberately miss a bill, and the company understands that. After this first missed bill, your insurer is going to send you one more bill for premium payment; if you don’t pay the bill, you will be cancelled for non-payment, and the record will hurt your credit score.What you should do when you want to cancel the auto insurance policy is to let the company know that you are canceling. Please make sure that you provide a specific date; it helps you avoid being uninsured for a certain period, time, term. The cancellation request will be sent to you, and all you have to do is to put your signature. It is recommended that you carefully check the document before signing it. Some companies may require you to provide valid proof that you indeed have another coverage before they can approve the cancellation. If you’ve financed your car, the dealer needs the updated policy information because valid proof of insurance is required in the purchase contracts.Credit history still mattersThe use of credit information to determine approval and premium rate is still common, even though some states already started to ban such practice. Some (if not most) companies use the credit history to generate risk score. They believe that it strongly linked or correlated to the likelihood of the consumer reporting a claim. More likelihood of filing a claim is the same with high-risk driver that usually also pays more expensive premium fee compared to “safe-driver” or “the preferred class.” The preferred consumers are those with stable credit card history as it suggests financial stability, meaning they are not likely to miss a payment. People of this category are safer consumers to insure compared to people with shaky credit history. Auto insurance companies do not like consumer who pays sporadically or changes accounts quite frequently.Some credit card issuers offer free credit score checking, but in most cases, you need to pay for the service. Unlike credit score, risk score for insurance-related matters will not be available for you, but both probably indicate the same thing, which is financial stability. If you are currently in the market to purchase auto insurance, and it turns out that you have quite unusual activity on your credit history within the only certain time frame, you can wait until one month to allow the credit activity to go back to its usual condition. If you cannot keep the credit score stable, prepare yourself to pay the more expensive premium fee.3. Budgeting by installments is not always efficient.Installments can pay almost all items, and consumers think that it is indeed the best way to budget the expense. When it comes to auto insurance, you can ask the company to divide the annual premium into a monthly basis, quarterly, or on six months. Please put in mind that dividing the annual premium will cost you “fractional premium.” You can consider this additional service fee to arrange the installment. It can be as cheap as $10 per payment; the more you break it down, the most fractional premium to pay.Most companies will probably offer you to pay in installments since it makes more money for them. When you apply for insurance, it is wise to ask whether there is any additional charge for installments option, and then you can compare the difference. If the fractional premium is not very expensive, then perhaps it is worth it. Another big difference between upfront payment and installments is that certain companies will immediately cancel your coverage if you miss one payment; even worse, they can do it without notification. It is best to pay upfront if you can; the entire process will be easier, and you can indeed save a few dollars.Every vehicle model and type has certain premium rateOf course, you all know that sports cars need more expensive insurance policies than a van, but insurance companies will not tell you the exact numbers. In general, attractive, sporty, luxurious car with turbocharged engine will indeed go very quickly on the road, and it increases the risk of accidents, but this is not always true considering the discounts for safety features, security features, mileage (especially when you drive it less), etc. Auto insurance companies have a specific system to know the premium for all car models you can buy, based on the system rating by ISO (Insurance Service Office). Every type of car is rated from 3 to 27; higher number means a higher premium. Insurance Service Office says that it will not release the rating system for publication because its clients are insurance companies.You will not get the rating system from your insurer; you may not even find it anywhere at all. The best thing you can do when you want to purchase a new auto is to ask the insurance how much insurance premium you need to pay for a new car that you want to purchase. If you keep a good relationship with an independent agent, he/she should be able at least to predict the price based on raw calculation.4. Filing claim increases your premium.People are always interested to see insurance companies reduce the premium fee to attract potential customers. It is indeed one of the best things customers get from the competition in the market, but your insurer can increase the price right away after you file your first claim. The industry standard is to increase the premium fee up to 40% of the base rate after the first at-fault accident. With the help of an online car insurance calculator, you get a base rate of $500, your premium increases by $200. Some companies have different rules, but there is always a big chance your premium will go up after the first-at-fault claim. Some insurers offer “first-accident forgiveness,” meaning your first actual claim will not affect the premium at all, but the variable and requirement for eligibility can be different from company to company. You should ask your insurer if such discount is available and how to qualify for it.
Why Free Business Email Services Like Google Apps Are No Longer Free
Google Apps, Microsoft’s Outlook.com and many other smaller providers used to offer free business email accounts. This lured a lot of people into moving their business mail to these giant corporations. However, when these giants withdrew these free services around 2012 to 2014, there was a mass exodus of users to the regular paid email services. Although users who had signed up prior to the free account withdrawal were “grandfathered” in and allowed to continue using their accounts, there were very few upgrade options for them. This article deals with why most of the free business email services did not find it lucrative to continue their services at no cost.SupportOne of the most important concern for free email users was tech support. When you do take an email service for your business, when your business expands and the Proprietor is not the same as the IT Chief, then you know that you have outgrown the free services. The paid services of most of these providers was prohibitively expensive for most types of businesses. People expected a lot of support and assistance in managing and setting up their account. This is something that Google and Microsoft lacked. Although they did appoint authorized service providers to help local businesses, the continuous support requirement was getting overwhelming. This meant that for a free service, these companies would need to hire support personnel, without getting any direct returns. We must remember that companies like Google and Microsoft did not aim to make money from their mailing services. Their aim was to make money from profiling users for advertising revenue. Microsoft’s story is similar. Hence there was no intent to put back the money in giving any more than their standard free features.ConfigurationGoing hand in hand with support are the configuration issues that people used to face. Almost every user at some point in time will need to configure or sync or connect their account with some hardware device of theirs. Whether it’s a mobile phone or desktop or laptop, this was inevitable and should have been foreseen. However, Google Apps and Microsoft lacked the basic support infrastructure that paid email providers were offering. Hence, even though their service was free, their support partners charged money and made up for the free service. This money did not benefit Google or Microsoft and hence did not help them in any way. There was no direct incentive for offering free email services, especially when people required extensive support when setting up their account.ExpensiveGoogle Apps for business is priced at $50 per user per year, whereas Microsoft charges $48 per user per year at the minimum. When you realize that they also offer a free email service till today, you feel cheated. In effect you feel that you are actually paying for something which is being given out for free. What most people don’t realise is that the free accounts come without any support or without any assistance. But nobody wants to pay just for the additional support. Although the companies are justified in their pricing, they are not able to match competition, due to the simple fact that they have large expenses. Just like all other branded products, business email from these large corporations also costs more, without any visual value addition.What About Website Hosting?A big put off for people who used services like Google Apps and Outlook.com was that they wanted a one stop solution which included their website hosting, file storage and email. While Google Apps offered business email, it left a big void as far as web hosting was concerned. Google did offer alternatives like Google Sites, but the options left a lot to be desired. Almost all the business email options offer their own website editor with a limited number of templates. Beyond that no customizations can be made. The same was the case for Microsoft’s Outlook and Office 360 service. This is one of the main factors why people prefer conventional web hosting, even if they have a free option.
Stockholm, Sweden Travel and Beyond
What comes to mind when we think about Sweden? It has been widely known as the land of the Vikings.

Sweden is a country that has a lot of fun things to get you busy with such as going on day trips, indulging in a spa experience and you would love the nightlife here as well.If you are in Stockholm and you adore going on day trips and excursions, I would recommend that you check out Vaxholm which is a really beautiful city and is only 40 minutes away by car. It is an enchanting small city by the sea with an old fortress to visit. You should also see Smådalarö and Dalarö. It would take you approximately 50 minutes to get there by car. A simple guide that I believe you would enjoy.These two small and ancient towns in the archipelago are located very close to each other and are still located in mainland Sweden. Dalarö would be a very good jump-off point to take a boat trip out to the fascinating island of Huvudskär. It would take you the whole day to get there but I guarantee that it is sure worth every minute and every dime you spend.Another Stockholm guide that everybody should consider is the nightlife. It is quite good and you would be surprised to see so many beautiful and friendly people. Make sure you dress up and look trendy and come early if you want to get in the trendiest places. In Sweden, you would have a better chance by coming early or you could call the nightclub in advance to make your reservations. Their bouncers are known to be very picky. They will not let you in if you come after midnight if your name is not on the guest list. Be sure to take the necessary precautions so your otherwise wonderful evening would not be spoiled by not being admitted at the entrance.After a long night of partying, you would enjoy treating yourself to a relaxing spa experience. There are a number of spas in Stockholm that you could choose from. Most visitors would choose the spa accommodation and packages in their hotels or in the city malls. These spas are excessively beautiful but the prices could be too much because of their location.There are a couple of Japanese spas which would take a 15- minute cab ride if you are looking to enjoy a relaxing environment and see a bit of Stockholm. They offer a wide range of treatments from facials, to hand and foot massages, pedicures as well as a variety of body scrubs, masks, baths, slimming body treatments. These places even have restaurants for your convenience. Sweden and great Stockholm accommodation is definitely a place for travel and beyond.
