				Four Corners Storm to Impact Millions with Snow, Ice, Flooding<br />
<br />
The same storm that resulted in mudslides in the Los Angeles area on Saturday is crossing the Four Corners region today, dropping rain and mountain snow. The storm will spread a significant, disruptive snow across the nation's midsection through tonight. By midweek, snow may return to areas hit hard by the "Blizzard of 2010". A zone of treacherous ice will develop farther south, threatening travel and perhaps even power outages. This storm will also cause the next round of flooding rain and perhaps even severe storms from Texas through the Deep South. Full Story <br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div>I found a great iPhone application for recovering addicts. It’s called 12 Step Sponsor Dial. I got it free at iTunes (<a href="./ext.php?ref=http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/12-step-sponsor-dial/id348594367?mt=8" target="_blank">http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/12-st...348594367?mt=8</a> ). It customizes my scheduled reminder to call my sponsor, keeps him on a 1-touch speed dial, and has an easy access phone list of my other 12 step contacts and crisis outreach access. It has helped me stay in touch with my sponsor. I tend to be very forgetful and this was my fool proof way to remember.</div>

				<font color="Red"><u>Could this really be happening? Two major snowstorms within seven days in the mid-Atlantic region. Across the northern tier of the country, big winter storms can happen in rapid succession, but that rarely occurs in the mid-Atlantic region.<br />
</u></font><br />
<br />
It's going to this time, though. Later this week, there will be another big snowstorm in northern Virginia, Maryland and Delaware, and this time the heavy snow could migrate up to central Pennsylvania and central New Jersey. So, what is the biggest amount of snow accumulations in this region? How about 8 inches for starters, and there could be much more if everything were to line up perfectly.<br />
<br />
<br />
This is going to be a widespread snowstorm with its effects being felt in the Midwest and across much of the Great Plains. A band from central Indiana, back across Illinois and northern Missouri could get more than 6 inches of snow from the storm.<br />
<br />
<br />
In regards to there being two storms on the map shown here, this will be a case in which one hands off to the other. The storm tracking in Tennessee will be the main low which will hand off its energy to secondary storm along the East Coast. Simply a classic situation for snow in all ways.<br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div>When you use your personal history to justify why you're presently out of balance on the abundance scale, you're really saying <i>I have a long history of attracting scarcity into my life, and I intend to continue doing precisely the same thing.</i> <br />
Thinking that the past is responsible for your continuing insufficiency is a major source of resistance. You've probably been taught that if you don't pay attention to the mistakes of the past, you're bound to repeat them. <br />
Here's my take on that advice: <i>Keeping your thoughts on the mistakes of the past guarantees that you'll continue manifesting them in the present.</i> <br />
I think you're better off tossing out your personal history of any deficiencies that have surfaced in your life. Refuse to think about what's failed to materialize unless you're hoping for more of the same. Avoid talking about your bleak past. <br />
Don't identify yourself as someone whose childhood or early adulthood was characterized by scarcity. <br />
Instead, look upon your entire history as a series of steps you absolutely needed to take in order to bring you to the present realization of your endless potential for abundance. <br />
Be grateful for all that failed to show up. <br />
Then shift from resistance to the direction of manifesting your desires, and rebalance your thinking so that it matches with those desires. <br />
State this affirmation: <i>It is my intention to think thoughts that vibrate perfectly with my desire to be abundant in all areas of my life. I release any and all thoughts that put my focus, and therefore my pulling power, on what has or hasn't been. </i><br />
This is the key to restoring balance. <br />
~Wayne Dyer</div>
