“You’re not the father”, the immortal words
of the King of Baby Mama Drama himself,
Maury Povich. Needless to say, he and the
parent company (Kingworld) who own the
rights to the Maury Povich Show continue
to generate significant ratings and collateral
revenue because the SHOW deals repetitively
with an old TABOO that is timeless between
MEN and WOMEN known as Infidelity.
Yes, INFIDELITY, that old virus that Infects
marriages globally and generates divorce rates
of 50% within the United States of America
and among other Industrialized Nations. Now,
the old scenario of the MAN being as faithful
as his options is well documented and manifested
in movies, news reports, TV sitcoms, personal ads,
blogs and every other form of MEDIA known to
MAN. Yes, females have often-times been depicted
as the VICTIM of an unfaithful philandering partner,
who failed to adhere to his marriage vows (“till death
do us part”…. clearly he couldn’t wait). Oh yes,
he also, failed to adhere to the 11th Commandment,
“Thou, shall not get caught. But, oh, how times have
changed.
Infidelity is no longer the exclusive domain of
MEN. Not on your life because WOMEN have
demanded equality and have exercised that right
as indicated by achieving remarkable statistics
generated through surveys and other research tools
that NOW reveals FEMALE infidelity near equals
that of men. In fact, many researchers believe that
women are more promiscuous than men because
society still retains the stereotypical image of the
women being nurturing and caring for the family.
Yes, JUNE CLEAVER is still hardwired (forgive
the pun) in much of society’s PSYCHE (no wonder
the little ladies can get away with being good in the
KITCHEN and a whore in the Bedroom……. Just
not with their husband/partner).
Clearly, fidelity is being practiced less and less among
married and unmarried couples today for various reasons.
However, an important issue emerged during the 1990s
and continues to have significant legal and societal
ramifications, which legislators still FAIL to effectively
address and resolve through law.
Can you guess what I am now referring to………..YES,
Paternity Fraud (No, this has never happened to me).
Paternity Fraud refers to a paternal discrepancy or a
non-paternity event, in which a mother names a man
to be the biological father of a child, particularly for
self-interest, when she knows or suspects that he is not
the biological father.[1
In many jurisdictions, there is limited opportunity to legally
challenge the assumption of paternity. For example, by
forbidding men to challenge paternity, especially in the
context of marriage, by limiting the amount of time
allowed to challenge paternity, or by allowing women to
make a claim of paternity without adequate chance for
rebuttal by the alleged father. In some jurisdictions, the
husband of the mother of a child is held to be the father,
regardless of biological relationship.
Obviously, you’re asking the question, “why does the law
limit a man’s ability to challenge Paternity…... the answer
Is very simple MONEY. Yeah, simple Dollars and Cents.
These females (single mothers) frequently, seek financial
support from governmental bodies in the form of welfare
benefits. Well, local government wants to recoup their
loss, when they payout benefits to these women and their
children. So, who is the father and where does he live?
Well, if the motheris uncertain who sired her child then,
the man with the Deepest Pockets or Whereabouts
Unknown frequently, becomes named DADDY.
Additionally, Daddy by Default Laws (legally named
the father of a child, who is not biologically related),
help foster the current problem of Paternity Fruad.
So, a SOLUTION to the problem of Paternity Fraud,
would be mandatory DNA testing for every live birth.
Makes sense right, but hold on…. there are those who
oppose DNA testing, but why and what’s their motivation?
Well, let’s identify the Special Interest Groups:
· Now (National Women’s Organization)
· Attorneys
· Child Support Enforcement
· State/Local Governments/Social Services
National Organization of Women the feminist
Organization played a significant role in the
Creation of No Fault Divorce in 1970. Now,
why would NOW oppose paternity fraud
legislation that biologically links a new born
with its father? Well, research has revealed that
various Blood Banks organizations have determined
statistically 25% - 30% of men named as a father in
fact, are not the biological father of their children.
Needless to say, the aforementioned statistics don’t
Enhance the credibility of an organization that demands
Equality for Women.
Attorneys, clearly have an incentive to oppose a
SOLUTION to paternity fraud, because no legal
intervention or very minimal is required when
science matches Papa and Junior biologically.
Oh yes, Mama will not profit from her infidelity.
Child Support Enforcement, is out of
Business when the right man is identified
as the biological father of a child.
State/Local Government/Social Services Agencies
receive matching funds from the federal government
when they can assign a father who owes child support
regardless if, he is biologically related to the child.
Now, DNA testing would clearly, reduce this Cash Cow.
It is truly ironic how DNA evidence can save a man’s
life On Death Row; yet, the same scientific evidence
is considered irrelevant after 1 or 2-years
(Expiration date to challenge Paternity). The courts
supposedly focus on “Determining the best interest of
the child”; however, the current legal system has failed
to achieve that goal……. Just ask the non-biological
male, who continues to pay child support for a child
that isn’t his.

I am The Architect of My Own Destiny: Do You Believe It!!!
What you MUST do to develop assets.
by Dr. Jeffrey Lant
What's your asset position like? If you're like most people you're getting older but you're not getting any richer. This is because you don't have an asset development plan in place. The money comes in, the money goes out... but your asset position doesn't improve. WHOA!
If that's you, this article couldn't come at a better time. Read it and reap!
1) Are you spending money... or are you using money to improve your life?
The average person gets money from a job, then uses this money to cover basic necessities and the occasional luxury. To develop assets you must see your position with new eyes, determined not just to spend money but use it to create assets. Money, you see, is nothing more than a commodity whose value is constantly shifting, thereby giving you the opportunity to grow assets daily. Here's what you can do to get into this exciting game:
2) Start by writing down and reviewing all expenses
Face it, when was the last time you actually wrote a list of all your ongoing expenses, then scrutinized each and every one to see where economies and improvements could be made?
BINGO!
Admit it, you've gone for months, maybe even years without systematically reviewing what you spend and how to improve your situation. But let's be frank: asset development starts with a clear and unblinking view of your current financial position. You MUST know what you spend and where cuts can be made.
3) Cut up your credit cards
Money is a commodity. And like all commodities it has a cost. Chances are the most expensive money you're buying is the interest charges on your credit card, 18% being commonplace. This is madness!
If you're using multiple credit cards and thereby incurring multiple credit card bills, your first task is to get rid of all cards but one.
Stop using these extra cards TODAY; then taking the savings you made from the review of your expenses, take what you saved and apply it to paying off the balance of at least one card. Continue to do this monthly until ALL credit card balances are a thing of the past.
4) Save daily
When you're just beginning to create assets, the development of good saving habits is crucial. Decide just how much you can save each month. Make the amount challenging, but not overwhelming. The amount should be reachable, not daunting.
Say you've selected $300 as your target monthly savings goal. Then put aside $10 daily. Open a passbook savings account at your bank; deposit $75 weekly. Doing this just once a month is NOT recommended; it's too easy to "forget" or skip, rationalizing that you can make it up tomorrow. Unfortunately, "tomorrow" never comes!
5) Empty your pockets, save it all
One very easy way to save is to empty the contents of you pocket or purse every few days... and put the money away.
If you're like most people, each year hundreds of dollars end up in purse or pocket. Treat these not as "change" but as the raw material for a successful saving plan.
6) Involve your family
One of the major reasons why most people fail to achieve their asset objectives is because they don't have support.
Right from the get-go, involve your family. Call a family meeting. Explain that in order to develop assets, you intend to review the family budget, including all expenses and all purchases from every family member, starting now; that you'll be looking for ways to save. And that to make this work, you will ask for and indeed require the support of EVERY family member. NO purchase is to be made by anyone until it is considered, reviewed and approved.
Believe me, it may take some "tough love" to get the full approval and working support of all, but it's worth it!
7) Get a financial advisor ASAP
Rich people, people with assets, have a financial advisor and you need one, too.
Even when you're emptying your pockets for spare change, you should be planning for the day when you need and have multiple advisors. Towards that end, start by doing the following:
i) ask your family and friends who provides them with professional investment advice
ii) ask your banker what options she has for you
iii) do an online search for "no load mutual funds". Giants like Vanguard, Fidelity, etc. provide solid advice and no-fee mutual funds. Talk to the representatives of at least two such funds.
Start today
No matter how poor your financial habits have been, no matter how self-destructive, you can turn things around. But you must start TODAY. The thousand mile journey starts with a single step. Get a pair of scissors, cut up your credit cards, empty your pockets, create a budget and review your expenses. It's all good... and all represents progress. Right now you're working for money, but by following these steps money will start working for you. You'll see!

Business Success: Real or Just Talk!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
5 tellltale signs you're not really interested in business success... you just like talking about it.
By Dr. Jeffrey Lant
Author's program note. This is one of the dozens of articles I've written about success. All are prescriptive, honest, detailed... the kind of articles you use a refrigerator magnet to post for the one in your house who talks the best game about success... but never does what's necessary to achieve it. (That could be YOU!)
I'm writing this report for those who engage mouth... but nothing else.
Who try to make you feel small by always prattling on about the BIG things they mean to achieve... but somehow never do.
These people need help and they need it instantly. I aim to provide it... and I'm going to call on the spirit of Harry S. Truman, once president of the United States, to assist. I'm in a big pro-Truman phase right now, not least because I'm again reading one of the best written and most intelligent presidential biographies, David McCullough's "Truman." It is so rich I only permit myself to read a bit every day, because I know how good it is and how distressed I'll be at its conclusion.
For this article's theme music I've selected Paderewski's Minuet in G, a piece Truman knew well; Paderewski himself had shown Truman how to play it... and on one memorable evening during the Potsdam conference of 1945, he played it to the most distinguished audience in the world, headed by the other two of the "Big Three", Stalin and Churchill. The elegant music of another, more graceful age incongruously rose into the night air drifting over the macabre ruins of prostrate Berlin. You'll find it in any search engine. Play it now.
Getting on with the job.
Harry Truman was one of the most quintessentially American presidents the Great Republic has ever had. He was hard-working, conscientious to a fault, direct speaking, humble about himself but determined to improve America and the world using the powers of the office he venerated, and graced. He had the profound American belief that problems were not obstacles, but challenges... and that they could be solved, all of them, if folks just got down to the essential business of solving them.
His approach, of course, might have been so very different. Being President of the United States, he could have pontificated in endless wordiness about what he was going to do... then returned to the White House to play the poker he loved with the buddies who made him laugh and relax, promises forgotten.
Or he could, following in the footsteps of one of the most revered of leaders, Franklin Roosevelt, give way to feelings of inadequacy, a man of slender skills dwarfed by one of history's giants. But he didn't go this direction either, despite a famously indiscrete toast by Winston Churchill who said, "I must confess, sir, I held you in very low regard. I loathed your taking the place of Franklin Roosevelt." With friends like these... Untimely delivered to be sure, but a sentiment the majority of the American people shared with Churchill and which they, along with Churchill, changed as they came to know the man and his methods better. Then, Churchill rendered his revised opinion thus:
" 'He is a man of immense determination. He takes no notice of delicate ground, he just plants his foot down firmly upon it'. To make his point, Churchill jumped a little off the wooden floor and brought both bare feet down with a smack."
Now, be honest, would anyone call you a person of "immense determination" with an acute desire to solve problems and a practical willingness to do so as soon as possible? We have now arrived at the moment of truth, where you need to be a person of total veracity and integrity. Can you rise to this absolutely essential level? If so, it's time to transform your habits so that you can create success after success; to start having and quit merely talking about it.
1) Shift from talking about to actually having success.
So, when was your last success? The longer ago the date you now provide, the bigger your problem. Successful people are starkly "now" oriented. They won't tell you about the successes of years ago; the successes that matter are the ones of recent date. Thus, just how far back you have to go to find a meaningful success constitutes a very clear indication of just how big a problem you have.
2) You must be confident enough about your judgement to make decisions.
Successful people are decision-making people. They know that the achievement of success, then the maintenance and expanding of this success is a function of not just hundreds, but thousands of decisions:
Should I buy this inventory at this price, or not?
Should I invest the company's assets in an interest paying account for this amount of time, or not?
Should I inform this very difficult customer that my firm cannot handle her business anymore, or not?
Should I fire this, hire this, advance this, demote this particular individual, or not?
Review the life and condition of any successful person, and you will see a steady increase in the number and importance of decisions made. Leadership, prosperity, success is all about the ability to make complicated decisions without regret, without second guessing yourself.
3) Successful people will work with you to work things out.
There is a marvelous phrase in the Bible that says simply, "Come now, let us reason together." (Isaiah 1-18) This is precisely what successful people do. Of course, they want to make the best deal, but they realize the best deal contains substantial benefits for the people they are negotiating with; in other words, it is mutually beneficial. If the parties are mutually content, the deal is not only satisfactory for now, but keeps the door open for subsequent deals. And this is the best deal of all.
4) Successful people know the point, grasp the point, and keep their eyes and mind on the point.
Successful people are focused people. Life, already short, cannot be wasted; carpe diem is their motto, guide, and objective. They know that this day will end; that is a given. What is not a given is what benefits they have garnered from the day. The fact of a day is God-given; what happens in that day is determined by each of us. People who talk about tomorrow, next week, next month are fooling themselves and are rightly shunned and disregarded by people who regard procrastination, sloth, and inertia as completely unacceptable and root them out accordingly.
5) Successful people anticipate what people they are working with might need and gather it in advance.
Successful people are perceiving people, thinking people, aware people. They brainstorm options and are thoughtful about what may happen and how to prepare for it, for the ease and comfort of all.
Is this how you are? Or are you always a part of the problem, never part of the solution?
In this regard, consider what Floyd Boring, one of President Truman's secret service agents, said about him:
"He never came on as being superior. He could talk to anyone! He could talk to the lowly peasant. He could talk to the King of England... And that was, I think, his secret.. He never got swellheaded -- never got, you know, swagly."
Ask yourself if anyone will ever regard you this way... and work hard to make sure they do.

To Insure Promptness: Secrets of Receiving Superior Service
Six things you can do to ensure constant good service. Hint: tipping isn't one of them!
by Dr. Jeffrey Lant
How often do you complain about poor service? About businesses that seem to specialize in gratuitous irritants and mind-boggling ineptitude in the care and feeding of worthy customers... like you! Such commentary in our rude days is voluminous, constant, and largely pointless. After all, what is to be done with what is so obviously a general, universal melt-down and daily deterioration in manners?
Plenty!
That's why this important article is so important. Constant complaining won't do much. However, there are things you can do every time you visit any business that'll ensure constant good service. Let's dig in:
1) Smile.
Have you looked at the members of the human comedy as we (for I include myself) go about the business of living. Review the faces you see. How many exhibit such off-putting expressions that would make Ebenezer Scrooge seem like Rebecca of Sunnybrook Farm? Answer: a number that seems to grow by the hour. Indeed, the "get lost; leave me alone; don't you dare speak to me" expressions are so characteristic of our time that the Rolling Stones hit "I can't get no satisfaction" should become our national anthem. That's why we need to put "smile" at the top of the list.
Smiling costs nothing and opens a world of possibilities and easier-going relationships. Thus, your goal is to proffer a smile whenever possible... and, by smiling, motivate the people around you to return the favor.
2) Always greet people, whenever possible by name.
People like to be called by their names. This being the case you have to wonder why more people haven't figured out that greeting a person by their name not only is courteous; it's a vital way to ensure good service. So, how do you get the name?
In many businesses personnel either wear name tags... or else they often have a name plaque (like banks). Make a point of looking for the name... and then using it. "Good morning, Betty. You look cheerful today!" In such a simple beginning is a future replete with good-natured help and assistance from Betty; which is just what you want.
3) Offer a cheerful remark.
If you want cheer from otherwise morose and self-centered personnel, make it a point to break the ice with a positive comment, like the one above delivered to "Betty": "You look cheerful today!"
Count on the fact that you will be one of the few people in contact with this person today who will be cheerful, upbeat, with a hail-fellow-well-met attitude. Remember, the run of homo sapiens will be scowling instead. Thus your remark is guaranteed to stand out... and get the response you want, namely regular good service from someone positioned to assist you, if she would!
4) Look the person you are addressing in the eye.
The general population moves listlessly through life eyes cast resolutely down, making a point to avoid eye or any other contact. This makes it difficult to secure the best service possible; in fact, it is a prescription for the exact opposite. That's why you must look your potentially helpful but current unhelpful person in the eyes. Eye contact is crucial in establishing long-term good relations and the superior service you desire.
5) Has someone been helpful to you? Tell the manager or responsible individual before you leave.
Every day most employees manage to do a reasonable job. If you want good service from these people, tell their supervisor that they were most helpful to you.
Now here's the key point. Maybe these employees have been particularly helpful... or perhaps they are just a tad above horrible. If you want to make a good impression and open a bridgehead to better service in future, you will find something to commend to the person in charge; you will tell the employees you intend to put in a good word for them...and you'll put in that good word before you leave the business.
Doing it now -- and letting the employee know you've done so -- marks you as an action oriented individual... and a person to be remembered and treated with the kind of respect only a few holy persons and an occasional monarch get. A live commendation puts you in this select society... and gets you the superior service you desire.
6) Write a congratulatory note or send an email.
In a society as service-challenged as ours, there ought to be a law ordering congratulatory comments like those above. Sadly, there is not...which is why so much good service never gets more than a thank-you at best. But not from you...
Your job, if you are determined to secure better service from the establishment and its employees, entails getting the good employee's name, the manager's name and mailing or email address. Then writing a brisk, focused message lavishing compliments and praise. In such messages there cannot be too many compliments or excessive flattery. Use both... for they are important in getting you the better service you desire. Make sure such messages are sent the very day of the good service. Delay diminishes their value, which would never do.
So, who gets superior service... and why?
The bottom line: if you want a lifetime of superior service... becomes a superior customer. Don't expect the people you deal with in business to give you what you will not give them: good manners, an ease of manner, not a jolting "I exist. Serve me" attitude.
Thus, the key point of this article is not merely to provide helpful hints that guarantee superior service, but to make it abundantly clear that those who get superior service are those who deserve it. And by "deserve" I do not mean that they are big shots who arrive in a chauffeur-driven limousine. Indeed, no.
People deserve better treatment because they give better treatment. And that's the way it should be!

How often do you complain about poor service? About businesses that seem to specialize in gratuitous irritants and mind-boggling ineptitude in the care and feeding of worthy customers... like you! Such commentary in our rude days is voluminous, constant, and largely pointless. After all, what is to be done with what is so obviously a general, universal melt-down and daily deterioration in manners?
Plenty!
That's why this important article is so important. Constant complaining won't do much. However, there are things you can do every time you visit any business that'll ensure constant good service. Let's dig in:
1) Smile.
Have you looked at the members of the human comedy as we (for I include myself) go about the business of living. Review the faces you see. How many exhibit such off-putting expressions that would make Ebenezer Scrooge seem like Rebecca of Sunnybrook Farm? Answer: a number that seems to grow by the hour. Indeed, the "get lost; leave me alone; don't you dare speak to me" expressions are so characteristic of our time that the Rolling Stones hit "I can't get no satisfaction" should become our national anthem. That's why we need to put "smile" at the top of the list.
Smiling costs nothing and opens a world of possibilities and easier-going relationships. Thus, your goal is to proffer a smile whenever possible... and, by smiling, motivate the people around you to return the favor.
2) Always greet people, whenever possible by name.
People like to be called by their names. This being the case you have to wonder why more people haven't figured out that greeting a person by their name not only is courteous; it's a vital way to ensure good service. So, how do you get the name?
In many businesses personnel either wear name tags... or else they often have a name plaque (like banks). Make a point of looking for the name... and then using it. "Good morning, Betty.

Does The TRUTH Have VALUE …….. Your Success or Failure Online is The Answer
“I want the truth, you can’t handle the truth”.
Yes, a line from A Few Good Men, but is it
TRUE or FALSE? Success in any business
involves dealing with reality and oftentimes,
TRUTH is an inconvenient by product.
Please leave your comments!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Home truths from an old hand about what it takes to succeed online. You may not like them but you need them!
By Dr. Jeffrey Lant
Every day thousands of people worldwide wake up and, hey presto!, have a great idea: I'm going to set up a business for myself online. Tons of people have done that and oodles of money is being made.
Now hear this: you are now and truly entering the twilight zone... and I want to help you get through it with maximum success and minimum frustration.
Who am I? Well, I am an old Internet hand who, since 1994, has made his primary work place the Internet and has reaped over the years a very ample reward. Now it is time for me to share with you some of the lessons of these years of learning, growth, and profits.
I know what you're thinking: "Yikes, another old geezer from ancient times trying to help me by offering useless advice that never in a million years could possibly apply to me and my situation." Is that how you feel when those more experienced than you are (and more successful) offer up their nuggets of wisdom? If so, reconsider and feast your eyes on this:
Item: Most home-based Internet businesses fail unless they have certain crucial criteria in place. Without these factors, you will fail, too.
Item: Your online business is most vulnerable if you have never previously been involved in business and have limited Internet experience. The failure rate here is staggering.
Item: You are at severe risk if you are trying to run a one-person online business and have no one else to advise and counsel you. This is very likely the situation in which you find yourself right this minute. You will soon discover why one is the loneliest -- and least successful -- number.
Now, have I got your attention?
The minute you decided you wanted to make money online, you became a failure waiting to happen. That's why you must pay close attention to the recommendations that follow. Not only are they the result of many successful years online, they are heartfelt, because online helpful friends are few and far between... and should be listened to with the utmost respect, even if you don't like what they're telling you.
Home truth number 1: Life online for most would-be Internet entrepreneurs is nasty, brutish and short. It looks like this: decide to have an online business, get a website, then.... absolutely nothing. No traffic! No customers! No money! You will know this description applies to you very, very soon if you are being at all honest with yourself.
How long have you been trying to make money online?
How much have you made?
How much have you spent to launch this e-enterprise?
How much time have you wasted?
What makes you think tomorrow will be better than yesterday?
These are tough questions... and most online business wannabees never do demand answers from themselves... or at least not before it's too little too late.
Home truth number 2: You don't know enough about developing your crucial prospect list.
People who make money online know that the list is the business and the business is the list. Do you know this and are you focusing your expertise, time and money in developing that all important list? Or are you focusing on such inessential factors as the colors used on your website, your domain name, how many business cards you should order, etc? All such questions collectively do not have the importance and significance of this single query: what did you do today, yesterday, the day before yesterday and the day before that to build the list, the list that is the business and from whence all your profits will derive, now and forever?
Home truth number 3: You have no marketing experience or success.
Who succeeds online? People who know what marketing is, have important marketing experience, and know what marketing they must know and do daily. Sadly, the wannabees have absolutely none of these things and their lack is both obvious and fatal. You cannot succeed in business online (or off for that matter) with only rudimentary marketing skills, hoping that that will be enough. It won't be. A thorough practical knowledge of reality-based marketing is essential. You proceed at your peril without it.
Home truth number 4: Success online means having the ability to write cogent advertising and other copy.
How are your customer-centered writing skills? The truth, please, and nothing but the truth.
Successful Internet entrepreneurs are to a person good customer-centered writers. Or if they're not they have solved that problem by hiring someone who is. Thus, your question is this: can I write the necessary copy that gets prospects to stop in their tracks, pay attention, peruse the offer and product details, and act? Merely "thinking" you can write such copy is just not good enough. Would you go sailing in a leaky boat? Then don't deceive yourself here either. Excellent copywriting skills are a must.
Home truth number 5: You're not selling nearly enough products.
Want success online? Sell lots of products. Want even more success? Sell lots more. Success online directly correlates to how many products you sell and your skill in presenting them.
How many products are you selling today?
How many yesterday? The day before?
If you are not adding new products daily, you are handicapping your ability to make money online.
Every successful online entrepreneur is engaged in a strenuous search and discover mission aimed at finding more products.
Are you? If not, your Internet obsequies are near at hand.
Home truth number 6: You are not skilled in essential traffic generation techniques.
In real estate, it's location, location, location.
Online, it's traffic, traffic, traffic.
The sad truth is you traffic generation skills and experience are minimal, certainly inadequate to generate the necessary traffic that ensures success.
Hopefully you'll admit this is true. Then, assuming you are willing to knuckle down and master traffic essentials, the better to create and grow your list, you at least have a prayer.
However, if you do not have the necessary traffic generation skills... and remain unwilling to say so and do something about it, you're DOA... 100% certain to fail.
Home truth number 7... but I must cease and desist as my space for today is now at an end. There is, of course, much more I can tell you... and undoubtedly will. For now, promise me this: that you will attend closely to these deeply honest observations. And when you implement them successfully, you'll let me know. I'd like to know how you're getting on, with my help.
