1-Asking stupid questions like:

   where do you imagine yourself 5 years from now? silly... no one knows for sure, actually no one knows if your company will even exist!

   What will you bring to our company? another silly questions; you advertised and I applied that simple looking for better chances


2- You send a resume and no answer, mostly they are having an internal hire that they are favoring or just collecting data for future use or perhaps it is a fake job opportunity


3-  You arrive in time and they come late; simply because they are the one who will not get the blame


4- They talk too much and give you questions with YES/NO answers just to fill in the spaces. Again they are favoring someone else


5- They quickly finish the interview and ask simple questions again just to fill in the spaces because they are favoring internal hiring


6- They do other things while they are interviewing you


7- No feedback, they just dump you and they do not even care to send you an email that will cost them nothing telling you that they wish you a better chance


8- Silly picky; they favor someone just because they have experience 21 years instead of 20; or perhaps if these fine people, I can even get better than them or perhaps with less money


9- Bad attitude; like they do not look to you while they are speaking or asking questions


10- They give false or misleading reasons for not selecting you, like you did not answer all questions; you did not understand the questions

Athletics, and other sports activities are just as important as academics. Usually, it is observed that students do not focus on sports activities at all. Instead, they spend away their entire time studying in their rooms.

 

Sports activities are considered to be great stress relievers. This is why many college students choose to rely on a writing service for all their college assignments, in order to make up some time for sports activities. This is generally true for college athletes who do not have enough time on their hands. Sports activities in college also allow a student to gain physical fitness. It is said that a healthy body results into a healthy mind. Hence, students should consider doing some physical workout at least for 30 minutes a day. They do not necessarily have to start with a tough workout routine immediately. Instead, they should get over their laziness and begin jogging for at least 10 minutes every evening. Once they have developed the habit, they can continue to increase their workout time. With time and the development of stamina, they can shift to tougher workouts in order to gain physical fitness.

 

By carrying a schedule, students will be able to maintain a perfect balance between athletics and academics. This will make both their mind, and body stronger.

Different websites usedifferentways to market themselves to their target customers. For an online site, the name says it all. The website seeks to lure customers through its name. The name implies an exercise geared towards writing essays. The name also tells a person seeking writing services that they will be attended to once they log in there. A website is the only means to getting services from the experienced writers. A site that uses a name to market themselves lures customers who do not pay attention to intimate details of the site. They satisfy their desires once they see the name. I used to wonder where can i pay someone to write my essay  but that problem was solved.

The above also uses the right people for marketing. It wouldn’t use social media wholly to get its customers though that’s a potential way to tip them through a social media page. It uses other experienced writers and websites. Posting links to other sites have been one of the easy ways to get customers. This marketing strategy depends on the willingness of the site owner to allow it to post alink. It may pose competition if two webs are exploiting the same niche. That’s how websites market themselves when they are offering writing services. The aforementioned marketing means are the best.

The Different Planes of Existence in the Universe

Various configurations of energy are where we need to be to explain the difference between a physical and a nonphysical universe. The energy in the nonphysical universe is much less dense than in a physical universe. So, on a nonphysical plane, you have much more freedom in manipulating energy. This increased freedom may mean that a nonphysical person can have seemingly superhuman powers and abilities; but, in actuality, that nonphysical person is just using modes of operation that are native to that environment. For example, disappearing from one place and reappearing in another is a normal occurrence on the nonphysical; however it would turn quite a few heads in the physical. Put simply, your physical body and the physical matter in the physical universe is just too compact for such a maneuver.

Below are the various levels or planes contained in and around the Earth. These planes are arranged from most dense (physical) to the least dense (spiritual).

In reality each of these planes exist one on top of the other. It is merely the focus of your consciousness that determines what plane you are aware of at any given time. It’s like a radio. Coming into the radio are all the channels at once. The tuning knob determines which one of the many stations you are going to listen to. With these planes of existence your consciousness is that tuning knob and right now it is tuned into the physical station. Let’s continue with the basic understanding of the nonphysical universe and examine each of these planes individually.

The Physical Plane
– Energy is limited to the speed of light.
– Objects and things are solid.
– Events are ordered by tine.
– Space Maintains constant structure.
– A physical type universe.

The densest plane is the physical plane. Here matter is as solid as it can get. The energetic structure of this plane only allows particles to travel up to the speed of light, but not passed it. This environment is the one you are presently in. You are most familiar with the physical plane on a conscious level.

The Etheric Plane
– Energy is limited to the speed of light.
– Objects and things are solid.
– Time is not entirely consistent here.
– Space is not entirely consistent here.
– A nonphysical type universe.

Going from bottom up, in decreasing density, brings us to the etheric plane. This plane just qualifies as a nonphysical universe because time and space begin to be inconsistent here. If you were standing in the etheric plane and looking at the room, you may notice that the chair you threw out yesterday is still here, and the chair you will buy tomorrow is here as well. The room may also be larger, smaller, or even reversed. You see! The room alters its properties and both chairs exist simultaneously because time and space are beginning to show their true fluid-like natures. However despite its apparent freedom from the constraints of time and space, the etheric plane remains governed by many of the rules of a physical universe. Due to its close proximity to the physical plane, objects are still solid in nature, and energy is still limited to the speed of light. The true freedom of a nonphysical environment can only be seen above the etheric level.

The Astral Plane
– Energy travels beyond the speed of light but is still limited.
– Objects and things are NOT solid.
– Non-time ordering of events. Events ordered by emotions.
– Space constantly changes. no consistency.
– A nonphysical type universe.

The next less dense plane is known as the astral plane. The astral plane is the first true nonphysical dimension. Objects and walls are no longer solid, and you can pass through them very easily. Energy travels many times faster than the speed of light – though it still has a maximum speed threshold. Time is often very chaotic. For example, if you were standing in the astral plane and looking at the room, you may see a chair that your great-grandfather used to sit in. Then, for no apparent reason the chair may change into a television set. Then the room itself may dissolve and you may be standing on a grassy field. This fluid-like nature of the astral plane is quite common and a normal part of its operation. Here, time merges. The moment-to-moment reality that you are so familiar with does not exist. People and things are connected, not by the sequence of time, but by the intensity of the emotions connecting them. For example, your great- grandfather may have felt the same way about his favorite chair as you do about your television, and both of those items spark similar feelings within each of you: the feeling of standing in a grassy field. Do you see why the scene changed as it did? No matter, if you did not.

The Mental (Buddhic) Plane
– Energy has no speed limit. It can jump from one place to another.
– Objects and things do not stay in any one shape or appearance.
– Non-time ordering of events. Events ordered by concepts.
– Space is defined by the distance between concepts.
– A nonphysical type universe.

Another notch up on the decreasing density scale brings us to the mental plane. This plane too is of a nonphysical type. Energy here moves in a way that is beyond the concept of speed. Energy (or objects) can instantaneously jump from one place to another and appear in two or more places at once. Objects in the mental plane begin to lose their cohesiveness. Also, objects appearing here no longer represent objects. They instead represent ideas. If you were standing in the mental plane and looking at the room a chair may look quite normal one moment, and in the next, may grow to three times its size. Next you may find yourself sitting inside that huge chair and looking down at your room at the same time that you look down at the earth. The mental plane is the dimension of ideas. Here the idea is more important then any physical type of stability. In this example, these series of events may seem chaotic from in physical standpoint; however from an idea standpoint, they make perfect sense. The idea being conveyed could imply that as you grow you will become the master of your world. Here in the mental plane space, size, and distance are only important in how they shed perspectives on things.

The Spirit (Atmic) Plane
– Energy has no pattern at all. It can do anything.
– Objects, people, and things do not exist in form.
– No time or space ordering.
– A dimension of the soul, of connections to one another.
– A nonphysical type universe.

The last plane we will examine is known as the plane of spirit. This plane is completely nonphysical in nature. Energy follows no recognizable pattern and its movement is in the form of a constantly changing state of being. Objects do not exist as objects. Form as you know it is gone. Time and space are irrelevant. This plane is a dimension of consciousness. If you stood in the room while being focused on the spirit plane, there would be no room. There would only be your consciousness. You would have no physical like body, nor would you be able to create any such physically related item or thing. What you could create and experience here is relationships. You can meet with others and intermingle with their pure thoughts, emotions, and energy. There is no need for words or language here. In this place, everyone knows everyone else. In this dimension, your thoughts, emotions, and energy would possess a consciousness of their own, independent of you, yet part of you. The spiritual plane is the most alien to regular physical existence because existence here does not depend on shape or form. You are who you are because of who you are, not because of the constructions that surround you.

– Reality Creator 2 (Tom DeLiso)

 
Now, sitting on/or across some of these planes are various dimensions. When I speak of dimensions, I’m speaking of areas of the nonphysical plane that are part of one or more planes of existence. For example, the dream dimension and the probability dimension both run through four separate planes of existence: the etheric, the astral, mental, and the spiritual planes. And, while both of these dimensions cross the same four planes, both of these dimensions are separate. It’s like two interstate highways running through the same four states. Each road is going in a similar direction; however, what you are liable to find or meet while on each of those roads will vary. And, as roads tend to take on their own unique style and appearance, different dimensions have different qualities to them.

Examining these planes helps to acquaint you with the various properties of each plane. In this way you can understand the seemingly chaotic nature of the environment when you actually encounter it yourself. Properties that are common on one plane are not so common on another. Each plane has its own purpose. No one plane is necessarily better than another, but all these planes are necessary to some extent, for consciousness to exist and grow in its evolution.

As you move through and into these less rarefied realities, you will need more control over your consciousness to take advantage of the benefits, learning, and information from that plane.

10. Ma, Ma, Where’s My Pa?Top 10 Biggest US Presidential ScandalsGrover Cleveland

Grover Cleveland is best known as the only president in history to be elected for two non-sequential terms. During his first electoral campaign in 1884 information was released that he previously had an affair with a widow named Maria C. Halpin who had given birth to a son. She claimed that Cleveland was the father and named him Oscar Folsom Cleveland. Cleveland agreed to pay child support and then paid to put the child in an orphanage when she was no longer fit to raise him. Unusual for a candidate mired in such a scandal Cleveland admitted guilt in the matter. Chants of “Ma, ma, where’s my pa? Off to the White House, ha ha ha!” became popular throughout the country, but it did not stop Cleveland from getting elected. He was honest about the entire affair. This helped rather than hurt him, and elected again in 1892.

9. Petticoat Affair10 Biggest US Presidential ScandalsJackson Shaffer Family (image courtesy rootsweb.ancestry.com)

The Petticoat affair was an 1830–1831 U.S. scandal involving members of President Andrew Jackson’s Cabinet and their wives. This is often forgotten but at the time major scandal under the presidency of Andrew Jackson, one of the most famous presidents in United States history. Although it started over a private matter, it affected the political careers of several men and resulted in the informal “Kitchen Cabinet”. It began with the marriage of Jackson’s secretary of war, John Henry Eaton, to recently widowed Margaret Timberlake, whose husband had committed suicide. The marriage proved a great scandal in American high society, with rumors that Eaton had been having an affair with Timberlake which led to her first husband’s suicide. Most of Jackson’s cabinet turned against Eaton but Jackson supported him, and the controversy led to such a conflict that almost Jackson’s entire cabinet resigned over the issue. The 1936 film The Gorgeous Hussy is based on the affair.

8. Marilyn Monroe and the J.F. Kennedy10 Biggest US Presidential ScandalsMarilyn Monroe and the J.F. Kennedy

Marilyn Monroe was perhaps the most start crossed lover in history. On one hand was her dazzling success in tinsel town and on the other, her volatile and highly secret relationships with the much-married President of the US and his brother. Monroe’s name was linked to both John F Kennedy and Robert F Kennedy.Although many in the political circles knew of the affairs, they were carefully hushed up so that the public had no clear facts to chew on. Monroe however was becoming a public embarrassment and had even threatened to go public about the President’s infidelities. But her plans were short-lived as she was found dead in her home under mysterious circumstances. Although official reports say she committed suicide, there have always been rumors that the Kennedys had her ‘removed’ to protect their political image. The truth still remains elusive.All of these scandals created a lot of furor and brought bad publicity to the politician(s) and the political party involved. But none had such a far reaching impact as the Watergate scandal which caused, for the first time, a reigning President to resign fearing impeachment.

7. Thomas Jefferson and Sally Hemmings10 Biggest US Presidential ScandalsThomas Jefferson and Sally Hemmings

Thomas Jefferson’s alleged relationship with Sally Hemmings was the first presidential s.x scandal in the United States and prompted a discussion that continues to this day. In 1802 Jefferson was charged with having an affair with his slave, Sally Hemmings, and in fact fathering a child. Jefferson denied the charges and remained as president for another 7 years, however the debate about the truth of the matter continued until 1998 when DNA testing proved that Jefferson more than likely fathered at least one of Sally Hemming’s children.



6. Credit Mobilier Scandal10 Biggest US Presidential ScandalsKeppler Credit Mobilier Hari-Kari (Image courtesy Wikipedia)

The Credit Mobilier scandal was the first major corruption scandal in the wake of the Civil War. The Credit Mobilier company was found to be stealing from the Union Pacific Railroad in 1868. However, they tried to cover this up by selling stocks in their company at a large discount to government officials and Congress members including Vice President Schuyler Colfax. When this was discovered, it hurt many reputations including that of Ulysses S. Grant’s VP. The story was broken by the New York newspaper, The Sun, during the 1872 presidential campaign, when S. Grant was running for re-election. The scandal’s origins dated back to the Abraham Lincoln presidency, when the Union Pacific Railroad was chartered in 1864 by the federal government and the associated Crédit Mobilier was established.

5. The Whiskey Ring10 Biggest US Presidential ScandalsUlysses S. Grant

Grant’s presidency is often considered to be one of the most corrupt in history, and with good reason, as two major scandals took place during his presidency. The second was the Whiskey Ring scandal, involving a bribery and tax evasion scandal among many high ranking members of his cabinet (and even his own private secretary) and whiskey distillers. In 1875, it was revealed that many government employees were pocketing whiskey taxes. Grant called for swift punishment but caused further scandal when he moved to protect his personal secretray who had been implicated in the affair.

4. Iran-Contra10 Biggest US Presidential ScandalsReagan meets with aides on Iran-Contra

This biggest political scandal in the United States that came to light in November 1986. During the Reagan administration, senior administration officials secretly facilitated the sale of arms to Iran, the subject of an arms embargo. Several individuals in Ronald Reagan’s administration were implicated in the Iran-Contra Scandal. Basically, money that had been obtained through selling arms to Iran was given secretly to the revolutionary Contras in Nicaragua. Other than helping the Contras, the hope was that by selling the weapons to Iran, terrorists would be more willing to give up hostages. This scandal resulted in major Congressional hearings.

3. Teapot Dome10 Biggest US Presidential ScandalsCommittee investigating the Teapot Dome oil leases in 1924

Warren G. Harding’s presidency was struck by many scandals. The Teapot Dome scandal was the most significant. Harding transferred control of naval oil reserve lands over to the Department of the Interior in 1921 (although it was later reversed by the Supreme Court, who ruled the move illegal). Then Secretary of the Interior Albert B. Fall used his new power for personal gain, giving rights to the Teapot Dome Reserve in Wyoming to the Mammoth Oil company in return for bribes. When the scandal broke in 1924 he was found to have accumulated over $100,000 worth of bribes from the Mammoth Oil Company, among others. Although Harding had already died in office prior to the scandal breaking, it became a hot topic of controversy for years after his death and continues to plague his now infamous legacy. Before the Watergate scandal, Teapot Dome was regarded as the “greatest and most sensational scandal in the history of American politics”.

2. Watergate Scandal10 Biggest US Presidential ScandalsThe Watergate complex in Washington, D.C

There may be many scandals in the annals of United States presidential history, but none can compare for sheer impact with that of the Watergate scandal under the presidency of Richard M. This was a political scandal that occurred in the 1970s as a result of the June 1972 break-in at the Democratic National Committee headquarters at the Watergate office complex in Washington, D.C., and the Nixon administration’s attempted cover-up of its involvement. The scandal eventually led to the resignation of Richard Nixon, on August 9, 1974, the only resignation of a U.S. President. The scandal also resulted in the indictment, trial, conviction and incarceration of 43 people, including dozens of Nixon’s top administration officials.

1. Lewinsky Scandal10 Biggest US Presidential ScandalsBill Clinton embracing White House intern Monica Lewinsky

The Lewinsky scandal was a political s.x scandal emerging in 1998, from a s.xual relationship between United States President Bill Clinton and a 22-year-old White House intern, Monica Lewinsky.
Perhaps no other scandal in presidential history can equal the Monica Lewinsky affair for pure sensationalism and absurdity. Bill Clinton was implicated in a couple of scandals, the most significant for his presidency was the Monica Lewinsky affair. Lewinsky was a White House staffer with whom Clinton had an intimate relationship. He had previously denied this while giving a deposition in another case which resulted in a vote to impeach him by the House of Representatives in 1998. The Senate did not vote to remove him from office but the event did mar his presidency as he joined Andrew Johnson as only the second president to be impeached.

Snapchat has quickly taken over on the social media sphere. It’s the best way to keep updated on your friends and see their lives through their eyes. When used correctly, Snapchat can be extremely beneficial to your business and add a personal element that makes you more engaged with your audience. I’m sharing the four ways that we at Be Inspired PR use Snapchat and how you can use it too!


1. Encourage your clients to get social with you! 
Geofilters are perfect for your clients and guests to do some promotion for you. If you have an event, create a few geofilters that will be available for the event. You do have to design your own and pay for them, but they are extremely user friendly and will not break the bank. Not only will it expose your brand to your guests’ followers, but also those in the area will be able to access the filter and it will get your name out there. For a more permanent geofilter, you can allow your office to have a geofilter, so your visitors can show off your beautiful office!

2. Give your audience a behind-the-scenes look.
Snapchat was created to give your followers a look into your life through your point of view. So give the people what they want! Whether it’s showing them a tour of the office, a BTS of setting up an event, or goofy times with your team, use this platform to show your personality. People love authenticity, so keep it real, but fun.

3. Get user input.
While you can always use the good old-fashioned survey, those have become a little outdated and they aren’t exactly convenient for the on-the-go consumer. Instead, keep it simple and use Snapchat to get user input. Followers can snap or chat you directly, but if you want to take a poll, do it through your story. Share a snap explaining what is to come, and then share the options asking them to screenshot their favorite. What you’ll get is instant feedback!

4. Rewarding those who follow.
I love the quote “Invest in those who invest in you.” With all of your loyal followers, be sure to reward them. Give them exclusive promo codes or first looks/sneak peeks into your upcoming projects that you normally wouldn’t share on Facebook or Instagram. It will be gone in 24 hours and will be special for your Snapchat followers.

Social media platforms are the best way to gain free marketing, so take use them to your advantage. Get familiarized with the apps and the tools you can use to maximize the service. Implement these methods and you’re already on your way to becoming the next Snapchat King or Queen.
