There are several services that allow you to run your email through their spam checker. They detect what words you need to change in order to get your email through the filter gates. My favorite is http://spamcheck.sitesell.com/

A new way to send your messages by email without ever triggering a spam filter is to send your voice over email. This is simple. Use a new software called Speak and Send to do just that: Speak into your computer's mike and then click send to deliver your voice, in an email, to your recipient. They simply click and listen. You can swear all you like and no filter will ever stop your email. See http://www.SpeakandSend.com

Bonus idea: You might also use RSS. It's a way to have your own news syndication. In other words, people sign up for emails from you using an RSS feeder. When you send an email to them over RSS, they receive it instantly, by-passing all filters. I have one at http://www.mrfire.com You can learn about RSS at http://www.StampedeSecret.com.

Until we find a better solution to stopping the spam kings and queens out there, any of the above should help make your online life easier. Just don't let fear stop you from enjoying the best tool yet developed for instant communication: E-mail.

After all, fear already stops most people from living their lives to the fullest. And we don't need another Joseph McCarthy.

Just ask your mother.

I will fill myself with love, and I will send that out into the world. How others treat me is their path, how I react is mine.

It is a simple procedure to calculate the number of seeds in an apple. But who among us can ever say how many apples are in a seed?

Has this ever happened to you?

The day after we moved to a small town in Colorado my wife Bev did grocery shopping. We moved few food items with us so she filled four grocery carts full. She asked if she could pay with an out of state check. "We just moved here," she explained, "and don't have local checks yet."

They said, "Yes, no problem." But when she began looking for her checkbook, she discovered that she had left it at home.

All of the groceries had been checked and sacked. "I'm so sorry," she said, "I thought I had it with me. If I could just leave the groceries here for a few minutes, I'll run home and get the checkbook."

"Don't worry about it," the cashier told her. "Take the groceries home. The next time you're in the store you can pay for them."

We had just moved from a large city and she couldn't believe what she was hearing! This clerk had never seen her before. But she treated her as if she were a VIP. She was somebody!

Don't you love it when you are treated like you are somebody? Because the truth is, we are all somebody. We are all important. And maybe most businesses cannot (and should not) let everybody pay with credit, but even strangers can be treated with honor and respect.

"Namaste" is a polite Indian gesture of greeting or farewell. From Hindi, the word literally means "bowing to you." Namaste has also been used to mean "I honor the sacred that is within you." What a remarkable thing it would be to actually honor the sacred that is within each person we meet! Even strangers. Nobody would go unnoticed and everybody would count.

Here is an exercise that may dramatically change your life: for one month treat everybody you meet as if he or she is the most important person in the world. The clerk in the grocery store, your spouse and children, a teenager from the church, strangers -- honor that which is sacred in all of them.

Give your undivided attention. By your words and actions, communicate to them all how important they are to you. Show them great respect and kindness. You may be amazed at what happens to your relationships!

You may not single-handedly solve the problem of world peace -- but in one small way at least, you will make a great difference.

Namaste.

Sometimes I feel like a lone voice crying in the wilderness...then I realize I'm not alone at all. People are just practicing caution with technology they don't trust.

Referring to ordering online with your credit card.

You know, it's safer to use your credit card on The Newbie Club web site than it is to hand the card to a waiter in a restaurant.

When you use a secure web site, your card information is scrambled so bad nothing can read it except the descrambler on the other end. This is called "encryption". And strong encryption is like scrambling an egg, mixing it in a 55 gallon drum of water, then putting it back together again. At least Humpty Dumpty was just broken.

When you bring up an order page, it should begin with "https" and not just "http". And the padlock on your browser should be locked.

Test this. When you get to a secure order page, double click on the padlock in your browser's status bar at the bottom. It'll open an interesting window of information about the security of the web site you're visiting.

If you've ever ordered anything from us, it's possible you were presented with a warning about the security certificate not matching the name of the site. That is true. The names don't match. But the site is secure, even if the names don't match.

You can safely order and download any of products with complete confidence. Thousands already have!

With thanks to The Newbie Club.
