Dr. Holliday is releasing a new book, "Sexual Magic ~ SEX IN THE MINISTRY." It is powerful, well written and a must read.

Dr. Holliday asserts in her new book, "Due to wide-spread pornographic material, many force their spouses into sexual perversions, leading the mate into deviate sex. However, in our day due to powerful sexual brainwashing by some churches, schools, televisions, radios and Medias, women and men have, in many instances, become willing slaves to sexual demons.

Terralever's Online Marketing Strategy Helps Sundt Construction Flex Its Online Muscle, Increase Web Presence

Terralever, the leader in online marketing strategy, is taking Sundt Construction, Inc.'s web presence to a new level with an interactive project portfolio and completely rebuilt Web site.

Sundt Homepage

With more than a century of experience in large-scale construction projects, Sundt is no stranger to the business community. However, the company saw the need to leverage new online marketing strategies to increase its web presence.

After conducting a comprehensive, full-scale strategy engagement, Terralever found that Sundt's potential customers desired local, relevant experience for their construction projects. That created an opportunity to rebuild Sundt's Web site in a way that would clearly set it apart.

"Our findings needed to be reflected in Sundt's new Web site," said Andy Richter, Managing Partner at Terralever. "Our challenge was creating an online presence that met the needs of Sundt's clients, but also remained consistent with the company's established brand image."

Richard Condit, Chief Administrative Officer for Sundt said, "Sundt's partnership with Terralever was the reason we were able to produce what we believe is a unique and differentiating Web site. Our goal was to have a site that customers and those seeking employment with Sundt would say 'that's exactly what I was looking for'. We believe that Terralever helped us to accomplish that goal and in the process they helped us to incorporate some unique features like our Project Explorer."



Terralever created a user-friendly, searchable project portfolio for Sundt. This platform was inspired by the online portfolios typically seen in the creative sector, and enabled Sundt to showcase their innovative qualities. Terralever's User Experience team chose to present Sundt's varied work experience in a fully interactive portfolio built entirely in Adobe Flex. The first-of-its-kind Project Explorer portfolio is labeled Featured Projects and divided into two views - location and market - allowing visitors to choose their search method, and quickly and easily find what they are looking for. The Project Explorer provides immediate access to simple, clean, functional information, and an instant snapshot of Sundt's experience.

Charlie Boyd, Corporate Director of Business Development and Marketing Administration at Sundt Construction, Inc. said, "Revamping our internet marketing strategy is part of our ongoing branding efforts. We are always looking for the best ways to communicate with our customers and prospects, and provide them with a unique experience. Terralever's approach was spot on. By implementing innovative solutions Terralever is helping us to truly differentiate ourselves online. "

Property Frontiers -- International Real Estate Investment Opportunities in 2006

Real estate markets are much like any other market; they operate in cycles experiencing growth, stagnation and even decline. In the case of property, these cycles tend to be slower than in other types of market, but timing is still the key. With this in mind, the question on every potential international property investor’s mind is; which countries will provide the best property investment opportunities in 2006?

The full answer to this question would involve a very long list of countries; many of which would be familiar to anyone with a passing interest in international property. Places such as Dubai (http://www.propertyfrontiers.com/dubai) have been hotspots for sometime and we expect this to continue next year due to the looming finalisation of the Freehold law and the early realisations of some of the Emirate’s commercial and leisure mega-projects. Similarly we expect the Bulgarian market (http://www.propertyfrontiers.com/bulgaria) to continue providing good investment opportunities. However, our advice to investors would be to concentrate on the ski resorts rather than the coasts.

Size Doesn't Matter, Says Paddy Power

Finding a person of small stature, to star in their recent advertising campaign, was a real tough job according to Paddy Power's new Financial Spread Betting arm, paddypowertrader.com

The new advertising campaign from paddypowertrader.com hangs on the tagline; "Who says you can't make money being short?" It features a 3' 11' model in full city mogul mode being photographed alongside two glamorous models in the back of a stretch limo like a scene just out of the classic film Wall St.

Paddy Power pride themselves on producing fun & innovative advertising that gets noticed and this new 'Being Short' campaign looks set to continue that long tradition. However with the pantomime season in full swing and it being a busy time of the year for vertically challenged models, Paddy Power found short-shrift in their search for a suitable star.

Hood River Lavender Farms Suggests Ways for Cooks to Use the Lavender Flower as a Culinary Herb

Sure Lavender is a lovely flower and its “easy to care for” nature is responsible for its pick in landscaping, but did you know that world-wide it is a popular & versatile herb used in food, spice blends, jelly and even tea?

Joel Orcutt of Hood River Lavender Farms says “Lavender is so much more versatile as an Herb and an accompaniment to food and drinks than what we here in the United States know. It is often used in Parisian Bakeries, as a Spice Herb and even ice cream in Europe. When the proper amount of a good culinary variety of lavender is added to sweets or citric drinks, the imbiber is treated to a clean, non-perfume fresh taste that is both pleasing and inviting to the palate.”
