			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://www.humandisorder.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/1211867_t_shirts1.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-49" title="1211867_t_shirts" src="http://www.humandisorder.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/1211867_t_shirts1.jpg" alt="" width="210" height="300" /></a>A slogan t shirt can be a funny and great way to show people who you are. Everyone seems to love <a href="http://www.bustedtees.com">funny shirts</a>. Serious t shirts aren’t as fun and aren’t as entertaining. People normally love to stop and read what it says on a shirt. Sayings can either be thought provoking or can be just plain funny. Whatever the t shirt, it can say a lot.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><strong>Show Your Personality through a Shirt</strong></p>
<p>Of course, <a href="http://www.wardrobeoxygen.com/2011/03/ffb-blog-event-dressing-like-faminist.html">the way we dress can say a whole lot about who we are</a>. But so can our t shirt. If we wear clever slogan t shirts it can reveal a lot about our personalities. Maybe it is something political that shows our views on a certain issue. Maybe it is something that is comical that shows our personality and our joking side. It could be something that has a reference to a band or piece of pop culture that shows who we are and what we stand for. Whatever we choose for our t shirt, it can be extremely funny and can say a lot about who we really are.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><strong>Not All Slogan Shirts Are Created Equal</strong></p>
<p>As many of us know and have experienced, not all t shirts are created equal. While everyone loves a great slogan t shirt, not everyone loves something that can be vulgar or inappropriate. Also, something that is obscure can seem to be funny to you if you know what it is talking about but few others can actually find it funny.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Finding the right slogan t shirt can be important if you really want people to see your true personality and if you are dying for people to know the real you or your personality through a funny t shirt.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://www.humandisorder.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/03/1165446_blog_1.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-46" title="1165446_blog_1" src="http://www.humandisorder.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/03/1165446_blog_1.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="224" /></a>Being a child of the sixties and seventies, I just love a good protest don’t you? Some people will protest anything; doesn’t matter what it is, they simply want to get out there and be heard. The only surefire way of being heard these days is to be involved in social networking; setting up a blog isn’t the only step—it’s just the first step. Search engines can give your cause maximum Internet visibility. The most popular <a href="http://www.evergreensearch.com">eg search</a> is currently Google, so if you aren’t in their search engine—good luck.</p>
<p><strong>You Must Be Accessible To Be Visible</strong></p>
<p>If people cannot participate in your blog through the use of each and <a href="http://www.wisegeek.com/what-is-a-multimedia-device.htm">every multimedia device</a> known to mankind, you are missing out on a huge particular audience. Devices such as iPhones, iPads, laptops… All of these are how people communicate in the year 2012. Should someone try to comment on your blog with their iPhone for example, and receive the message that the content is not supported; you have just lost a possible supporter and anyone else they may have referred to your blog. By simply Googling ‘protest blogs’ one is bombarded with a plethora of causes: Wall Street had a live blog protest back in January; someone’s always protesting a war somewhere; censorship is constantly being protested, as well it should; China’s always’ protesting some kind of political unrest or some darn thing; there is music, songs, photos and videos involved in many of these protest blogs—they are an invaluable tool.</p>
<p><strong>Getting The Word Out</strong></p>
<p>As stated earlier, social networking is of the utmost importance when it comes to getting the word out be it for a business or a protest. If people see you on networks such as You Tube, Twitter, Face Book and others they will be more likely to read about what it is you have to say.</p>
<p>And in the interest of getting the word out, just for fun, <a href="http://www.thedailyprotest.com/">check out the Daily Protest</a> which refers to itself as a watchdog blog for the community.</p>

Here’s a blueprint on how to share your visions of change with the world.</p>
<p><b>Step 1 – Website or Blog?</b><br />
Many people will tell you get a website online then you’re good to go but in the case of protestors or people who want to make a statement it’s almost always better to go with a blog. Why? A blog will enable you to intimately communicate your message with the world on a daily basis through an online journal format. Your message can also include pictures, video and interactive media as well too.</p>
<p><b>Step 2 – Social Media</b><br />
Start using all of the <a href="http://news.discovery.com/tech/top-ten-social-networking-sites.html">major social media websites</a> to connect with “likeminded people” then point them back to your blog, this step will enable you to get readers on a daily basis and save you a lot of money on pay per click or banner advertising.</p>
<p><b>Step 3 – Outsource the Marketing Side</b><br />
As your blog starts growing you should hire a company that presents you with the best <a href="http://www.zineguru.com/">website marketing strategy</a>. Outsourcing is an important step because it will put your blog into the hands of people who know <a href="http://www.zineguru.com/increase-targeted-traffic-to-your-website.htm">how to increase traffic to your website</a> or online presence and you will be able to focus on your mission or message. </p>

Some people can&#8217;t stand it, but others choose to form their own business and become their own boss.</p>
<h2>Becoming your own boss</h2>
<p>This can be a very trying and stressful time in your life because now you have all of the weight on your shoulders. You now know that it is up to you to become your own paycheck, and for some that can be very stressful. The key is to not panic and make sure you have a <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Business_plan">business plan</a> in front of you, and that you do follow it.</p>
<h2>The most important thing to do is get all of your accounts set up</h2>
<p>No matter what you must get yourself a <a href="http://www.merchantexpress.com/">merchant express</a> account. This particular account is going to help you accept money wherever you are, and that is a wonderful service for those of us who are always on the go. It also let your customers know you mean business and are not messing around.<br />
Your new business will take some time, but if you put in 100% and stick to the plan your new business will become a nice new paycheck without all of the stress of corporate USA.</p>

If you’re planning a protest in the near future it can get expensive to organize and many people make the mistake of taking out <a href="http://www.badcreditloansapproved.com">loans for bad credit</a> to cover expenses when planning a protest is a lot more affordable than they think.</p>
<h2>Step 1 – Plan Your Protest In Advance</h2>
<p>This step is important because it can take time for any protest to be approved for the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Protest_permit">necessary permits</a> that you need (depending on your city) so if you give yourself plenty of time to plan you can meet all of the necessary legal requirements and make sure that people have advance notice.</p>
<p>To expedite the permit process you can call your local parks permit office to request applications for permits or fill them out online.</p>
<p>One you have the applications for the permits that you need you call your parks office once again and ask them if the location that you plan on protesting is available for the date that you will need it for. One the date is confirmed, you should fill out the application and submit it.</p>
<h2>Step 2 – Get People Ready</h2>
<p>Once you have the necessary permits ready and the date for the protest is set you should next start mobilizing people to attend the protest. The best way to mobilize people is using social media websites like Facebook and Twitter because you can keep attendees up to date on the latest protest news and also notify them of changes at a moment’s notice.</p>
<p>To get more people to attend you should network with people who live in the same apartment buildings, promote your protest through radio, television and newspapers, leave your fliers in restaurants or other places where activists hang out and distribute information about your protest in newsletters and other lists.</p>
<h2>Step 3 – Pursue Well Known Speakers</h2>
<p>One of the biggest draws for any protest is when a top notch speaker appears to talk about the issue that they are passionate about. Before your protest you should research celebrities, actors, athletes and politicians to find out which ones are passionate about the subject your protest is for then invite them to speak at your event.</p>
<p>Mot celebrities or well-known people will speak at protests on topics that they are passionate about and they won’t charge you anything to appear.</p>
<p>In 2012 protests still do work effectively and they are an excellent way to shed light on a new cause and help people to enact positive change&#8211;no <a href="https://www.badcreditloansapproved.com/secure/bad-credit-loans/ ">bad credit loans</a> needed.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://www.humandisorder.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/Cigarette-Butt.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-32" title="Cigarette Butt" src="http://www.humandisorder.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/Cigarette-Butt.jpg" alt="" width="274" height="300" /></a>In today’s modern world the cigarette corporations are just as guilty as the Federal Government for the increase in cancer rates, health problems and deaths related to smoking cigarettes.</p>
<p>The only reason why cigarettes are allowed to continue to exist in this day and age is because, of one reason: money. Cigarettes make billions of dollars for the corporations every year and they make billions more in taxes for states.</p>
<h2>eCigarettes – The Modern Way to Protest Cigarette Corporations</h2>
<p>When a smoker chooses an <a href="http://www.ecigarettenavigator.com/">eCig</a> over a real cigarette they will be sending a message to the manufacturers of cigarettes that they are no longer going to be the servants of the corporations.<br />
An electronic cigarette contains a small battery, atomizer and cartridge of liquid nicotine called smoke juice. When the average smoker inhales from an eCig they will be breathing in a mist of liquid nicotine that will go directly into their body. It&#8217;s a <a href="http://www.ecigarettenavigator.com/green-smoke-review.html">green smoke</a>.</p>
<p>An ecig looks and feels just like a real cigarette, the only difference is that they don’t contain tobacco or other harmful chemicals that cause cancer.</p>
<p>The Best Reason to Use eCigs</p>
<p>If a smoker chooses an electronic cigarette for one reason it should be money or safety. One eCig will last as long as 15 or more cigarettes and this will save the average smoker at least $100 per month. This savings will ultimately end up costing the corporations as more people become less dependent on their products. As for safety, check out <a href="http://www.smokelesscigarettes.net">smokelesscigarettes.net</a> for more information.</p>

<h2>Since the Days of the Cold War</h2>
<p>Back in the days of the Cold War, Russia was kicking our United States butts when it came to satellites in space. The United States first introduced the Internet as a type of retaliation against the Russians for that very achievement. Now of course, people of all households and cultures utilize <a href="http://www.tescobroadband.com/">broadband Internet</a>. Creations and ideas are shared every day through computers that link up worldwide via forums, videos and home pages. Back in the day when people were not as focused on the Internet as they are today, 133 MHz was sufficient for dialup connections and people participating in forums. Today, forums are still a convenient tool of communication for people wishing to convey a message.</p>
<h2>
Though Computer Technology Advances, Some Prefer To Remain Simplistic</h2>
<p>Not everyone is on board with the latest technological advancements when it comes to computer usage. It takes dedication and time to keep up with everything that is going on in the world of computers and social networking. Not everyone has that kind of time.</p>
<p>Video and audio are and shall remain the most popular way for people to communicate.</p>

But in some parts of the world, fashion is not left to the individual to dictate, but rather to the state. In the Middle east, where Western influences are generally unwelcome by the government, women use fashion to make a political statement.</p>
<h2>Welcoming Western Fashion</h2>
<p>In the Islamic country of Iran, a headscarf and manteau (long coat) are a legal requirement in women’s clothing. The women of Iran, however, challenge this by wearing these items in colorful, fashionable prints as opposed to the regulated solid black, and matching them with their shoes. The manteau has even been altered from season to season, in color and length, to make it more fashion-friendly. Women are also taking it upon themselves to make their manteaus more fitted.</p>
<h2>Maintaining a Middle Eastern Identity</h2>
<p>In the country of Saudi Arabia, the government has never banned western fashion, but the country’ citizens do not find themselves automatically drawn to western goods. A doll, the Fulla, which bears a Muslim, Middle Eastern look, has displaced Barbie as a top seller in Middle Eastern markets. And even Elle magazine has launched a Middle Eastern version, featuring a mix of Eastern and Western fashions, and slightly more conservative than its western counterpart. The magazine is carried in Lebanon, Morocco, Jordan,</p>
<h2>Syria, Egypt, Dubai, and Kuwait</h2>
<p>Though fashions can, and do, vary drastically all over the world, globalization is reducing those differences. And even with government restrictions in some parts of the world, fashion savvy women are using their good taste to make a political statement, sometimes for and sometimes against their state.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://www.humandisorder.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/09/h3.jpg"><img src="http://www.humandisorder.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/09/h3.jpg" alt="" title="h3" width="300" height="225" class="alignleft size-full wp-image-23" /></a>If you have strong political and social views, you&#8217;re certainly entitled to express them. One of the ways you can do that is through your choice in Halloween costumes. You may want to dress up like President Obama, or you may be more interested in Romney, Palin, or someone else. There will always be options for political figures around Halloween, because many people have strong viewpoints that they want to express. Social views can often be expressed in the same way, but you may want to consider how far you wish to push your views if they might offend other people.</p>
<h2>Making a Social Statement</h2>
<p>It can be tough to make a bold social statement sometimes, but with a Halloween costume you have more of an opportunity to do so. You can also disguise yourself through the wearing of a mask, so that you can express your views without getting yourself in a lot of trouble. If you do this, ask yourself whether you&#8217;d face serious consequences if your identity was revealed. If so, you may want to reconsider your costume.</p>
<h2>Advertising Your Political Party</h2>
<p>The same kind of caution should be used when it comes to political leanings. If your boss is a staunch republican, you may not want to show up at your office party dressed as Obama or another high-powered democrat. Expressing your views is important, but not at the expense of your job. You can&#8217;t get fired for not being republican, but your boss will see you differently &#8211; and that can affect your treatment and changes for promotion.</p>
<p>When choosing a Halloween costume you have to decide between what you feel is right and what others can accept. If you do that, you&#8217;ll be more likely to have a great time with your friends and colleagues, and no one will be upset at your choice of expression.</p>
