Sidney's Closet Helps Pioneer the 'Mommy Rep' Program
(ContentDesk) May 16, 2006 -- So you are a Momprenuer . You have a great idea or product and a solid business plan, but you lack the sales and networking skills to market it. Or maybe you're just so busy developing your product, you have no time to sell it. Sounds like you need a Mommy Rep.Both reasons led Sidney's Closet, an online business selling handmade fashion accessories for moms and babies, to start a Mommy Rep program. Also, Ashlee Cooper, President of Sidneys Closet, says she was frustrated by traditional market reps.
I would give free samples to reps and get little result says Cooper. Market reps are selling to stores at wholesale price and then taking a percentage. I was left with only 35% of my retail price in revenue. These numbers just didnt work for a small company selling handmade items. So, in late 2005 Sidneys Closet began thinking of ways to solve this problem. And the Mommy Rep program was born.Mommy Reps purchase a minimum amount of product at wholesale price, sell it at retail and keep the difference in profit.
With incentives and marketing material provided by Sidneys Closet, Mommy Reps can set their own earning goals. Leslie Gorman is Vice President of Sidneys Closet and is responsible for maintaining and growing the Mommy Rep program. For someone who likes accessories, enjoys visiting with friends, the Mommy rep program is perfect. You have the opportunity to socialize while promoting a beautiful line that is well-made, classy and fun Gorman says. She also adds "The Program affords the reps to choose how they want to run their business.
They can turn it into a big business opportunity or keep it as a hobby, whatever works with their lifestyle and schedule."The Mommy Rep concept is catching on. I know of other Momprenuers starting up similar programs and finding success Cooper says. I am thrilled to collaborate with other women business owners like myself and help them grow their own programs says Sidneys Closet President. Like Baby Cappelli owner Jamie Wells who recently started a successful Mommy Rep program for her line of handmade hats for infants and toddlers. For Sidneys Closet, the Mommy Rep program is growing rapidly with no signs of slowing down.
The possibilities for this program are endless and we are excited to watch it grow Cooper Says. So look for a Mommy Rep in your town. Shes bound to be wearing a fabulous Sidneys Closet accessory and a smile on her face!For more information please visit www.sidneyscloset.com..
10 Reasons Why You Need to Ditch the Super Mom Syndrome
For any of you Moms out there that are doing it all, attempting to gain Super Mom status, let me give you my own personal opinion?It's not worth it!!!The pursuit of the Super Mom is an endless search that will be of great cost to you in the end.
Here are 10 reasons why you need to put an immediate halt to this pursuit.
- There is no such thing as a Mom who can do everything perfect because as far as I am concerned, perfection comes at a very high price. Seemingly perfect to other people, is often not the way things really are for the perfectionist.
- The Super Mom Syndrome is literally killing women.
Stress related diseases are on the rise and the demands that women place on themselves today directly contribute to the stress in their life. This stress is often all consuming. - There are far too many roles in our life today.
Trying to keep up with the different hats we wear on a daily basis is sometimes impossible.
Feeling the need to be perfect...

Universities Use High-Tech Massage Chairs To Help Their Faculty Unwind
(ContentDesk) March 31, 2006 -- Many universities are now making massage chairs available to their faculty, both in an effort to reduce stress and improve work performance, but also as a novel teaching tool. College faculty members are expected to fill many roles during the course of their day; they are friends, mentors and even surrogate parents, and wearing all of those hats can really wear a person out. In order to help their faculty stay energized, many schools have begun using a new breed of super-advanced massage chairs from companies like Premier Health Products and Panasonic to help reduce stress, and make their faculty more productive.Faculty members are encouraged to take a massage between classes, or in the morning as they start their day. Many professors may not find the time in their busy schedules for traditional massage therapy, but massage chairs offer a quick way to get many of the same benefits with no sticky oils and no appointments.At some institutions, massage chairs...

Time is Running Out for "Intelligent Design"
Boston, MA (ContentDesk) April 9, 2006 --
Tick tock Tiktaalik. Time appears to be running out for the idea of Intelligent Design. Paleontologists have just reported a discovery that promises to be as significant to evolutionary theory as it will be damaging, if not fatal, to biblical literalism. Now Bob Michael is commemorating the discovery with hats, t shirts, jerseys, sweatshirts, mugs, pillows, and tote bags.Proponents of Intelligent Design claim that a superior intelligence created each species in the forms that we see today. They insist that evolutionary theory is wrong because there exist no transitions, no evidence of "missing link" fossils to show changes from one species into another.
Their argument has always, of course, ignored the existence of archaeopteryx fossils - the transition species from reptile to bird. Now we have the uncovering, on Canada's Ellesmere Island, of a fossil which clearly shows a species that bridged the gap between fish and land animals....

Are Your Medicine Causing Your Thinning Hair?
Hair Growth
Hair usually grows about half an inch per month, although this slows as you age. Each hair remains on your head for two to six years, and during most of this time is continually growing. An average person has about 100,000 hairs.
As a hair gets older, it may enter a resting stage in which it remains on your head but doesn't grow. At the end of this stage, the hair usually falls out. Usually, the follicle replaces it in about six months.
During this time, your hair is in its resting stage.
But many factors can disrupt this cycle. The result can be that your hair falls out early or isn't replaced.
What Causes Thinning Hair
Thinning hair can be caused by drugs, including: birth control pills, anticoagulants,...
