Children’s Daycares (physical labor jobs) Are Up In Smoke
By Aydan Corkern
If you have small children that are not of school age, then I feel sorry for you as the prices of day cares and learning centers must be on fire to your pocket books and budgets. If you are a single parent, you must be beside yourself as to the costs. I know that with divorce cases, the father is supposed to pay these charges, but with a dad who doesn’t live up to his responsibilities, then you will get stuck with it.
With most couples where even both parents work, this price might not even be in their reach as they might have more than one child. Most of the time, these prices will be for only one child. Assuming the cheapest price of 95 dollars a week, this is almost 14 of one person’s wage a week, so if they have more than one you can see that it’s out of their reach. If the other children might be in school, then this might be okay but with all of the jobs going down the drain, the money might not be in the budget. Also, with the costs of putting your kids in school and being able to get all of their supplies and the money for trips that the schools are always asking, the parents to pay for this most likely will come to a halt, too, as the money just isn’t going to be there.
I really don’t see how young families can make ends meet, much less pay for all of the things that go with all the children that some of them have. It was hard to make ends meet when we had two children, so I don’t see how they do it with more than two unless they have help from the government, which might not be able to help them for long right now.
With more people losing their jobs every day, the more people will be asking the city and state officials for help, and they might not have the needed money themselves. Our food banks will be running out of food and money sooner in the month, which will mean that if you need some food at the end of the month, there might not be any to have. Our soup kitchens will see a rise in their need of food products needed to feed more people.
Our day cares and child learning centers will see a steady drop in their classes as well, as their attendance numbers will look like it’s up in smoke.

Be In the NOW, Not In the DOW
By Colin Tipping
Understandably, people everywhere are feeling that the old paradigm has let them down. They worked hard for years and years in order to create some security for their senior years and for their children and now they see it melting away. They are losing their jobs, their homes, their pensions and savings. They feel angry and betrayed about the American Dream having been shown to be just that - a dream.
Is this how you are feeling? I don’t blame you. You are entitled to be angry and, as usual, I encourage you to feel it. There is no doubt that the future looks very bleak for many of us. That is, unless we begin to see it differently. How?
Well, how about putting a new paradigm to the test? After all, what better time than now to try embracing the possibility that you can attract money to you through the Law of Attraction using the technology of Radical Manifestation?
In previous articles I have said that you can either stay transfixed by the apparent reality of the situation and remain a victim of it, or you can see it differently and rise above it using Radical Forgiveness. Well, now that it’s come down to issues of everyday financial survival, you have a similar choice. You can either struggle with whatever financial misfortune strikes, if it should happen, and do the best you can in the circumstances, or you can once again rise above it by shifting your belief system.
The easiest and most immediate way to do this is by using the tools of Radical Manifestation. If you spend some time using these tools you can either avert a financial crisis that might otherwise be in the making, or get yourself out of one if it has already happened. These tools are so powerful in themselves; you don’t even have to believe in the idea that you can attract abundance simply through activating the Law of Attraction. They work in spite of you.
I argued in my book, Radical Manifestation, The Fine Art of Creating the Life You Want, that money has no inherent value. It only has value if it represents something of actual worth that people can and want to buy. Banks around the world have just woken up to this fact and they have been utterly humbled by the experience. Investors who bought instruments of debt from these banks have also just realized that there was no real value attached to them, and they are livid about it. So much for the old paradigm!
I also argue that money is energy. Since energy doesn’t die, we could argue that there is just as much energy (money) in the system today as there was a few weeks ago. I mean real money, not the funny money the ‘too-clever by-half’ boys on Wall Street concocted with their computers in the giant Ponzi scheme that fooled the world and has just unraveled like a sweater made of overcooked spaghetti. No, I mean money that represents something of actual value.
That money is still there, in the system somewhere just sloshing around with nowhere to go. No one quite knows what to do with it at the moment, that’s all. So perhaps we don’t really have a crisis, except in our minds. The money just needs to be moved around the system in a different way now, that’s all. But not by conventional means, by which I mean taking us into recession and creating the necessary balance that way. No, my argument is that if money is just energy, then let’s use an energetically-based system like Radical Manifestation to move it where it needs to go. The best way to move money in your direction is to use the energy of mind to attract it to you. Like attracts like.
It’s like electricity running through a wire. It moves only when there is a difference in polarity between the two ends of the wire. One end is positive and the other is negative. Electrons are negatively charged so they are attracted to the negative pole and repelled from the positive pole. That immediately puts them in motion, moving in accordance with the Law of Attraction. Using that analogy we can say that if money is simply the manifestation of Universal Energy, it too will move towards that which attracts it. Why not let it be YOU?
My advice then, as far as surviving and prospering through what looks like being a major breakdown worldwide (perfect, of course, in the spiritual sense as explained last month) is to continue using the tools of Radical Forgiveness to stay out of the blame game and going to Victimland, PLUS making good use of the tools of Radical Manifestation to bring you all that you need. Remember the formula:
Radical Forgiveness + Radical Manifestation = Radical Empowerment.

Semi Truck Driving Job Requirements, Endorsements, and Restrictions
By Keith Baxter
Semi truck driving jobs are a great career choice for individuals who love to drive long hours on the open road. The pay is great; there are job openings nationwide; and you have the additional option of becoming an independent owner operator.
Many companies have an age requirement of 21 years or older for their employees. Before applying for semi truck driving jobs, make sure that you have the proper licensure, training, and experience to meet the necessary requirements.
Semi truck drivers transport livestock, materials, or other goods with a capacity of at least 26,000 pounds. According to the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA), individuals who operate semis are required to obtain a Commercial Drivers License (CDL) and may be required to obtain other endorsements and restrictions:
T - Double/Triple Trailers (Knowledge test only)
P - Passenger (Knowledge and Skills Tests)
N - Tank Vehicle (Knowledge Test only)
H - Hazardous Materials (Knowledge Test only)
X - Combination of Tank Vehicle and Hazardous Materials
Drivers must also possess a good driving record, according to the requirements of the FMCSA. This driving record precedes the two-year period prior to obtaining a CDL:
Has not had more than one license;
Has not had any license suspended, revoked, or canceled;
Has not had any convictions in any type of motor vehicle for major disqualifying offenses;
Has not had more than one conviction for any type of motor vehicle for serious traffic violations;
Has not had any violation of State or local law relating to motor vehicle traffic control arising in connection with any traffic accident, and has no record of an accident in which he/she was at fault.

For most individuals, these requirements are worth the time and cost involved. According to the Occupational Outlook Handbook, the overall job outlook is positive. Depending on the industry, average wages paid for semi truck driving jobs range from $32,460 to $52,200 per year.
After gaining some experience as an employee, many drivers choose to become independent contractors and will buy or lease their own trucks. Whether you choose to buy or lease depends upon your creditworthiness and your long-term goals. Leasing can be a less expensive option and is often an easier way to begin for individuals who want to jump start their own business. Lease to buy options are also available.
Openings in semi truck driving jobs are on the rise and continued growth in this industry is expected. Whether you want to work for a company or run your own trucking business, semi truck driving jobs offer a rewarding career.
