"Potential is one of life's greatest gifts, don't waste it" This Week's Conference Call Conference Calls ScheduleMany thanks to our last conference call speaker, Youngevity's® VP of Marketing, Vanessa Hunter. Vanessa joined the call to speak in further detail about the exciting new mineral makeup line that Youngevity® is launching in the coming weeks. Vanessa introduced some interesting facts about makeup. In North America alone, there are 169,000,000 women, which provides a large market and huge demand for makeup as well as cosmetic alternatives. In a survey conducted in 2004 by the Environmental Working Group, more than a quarter of all women and one of every 100 men were shown to use at least 15 products daily. Anti-aging makeup is forecast to see the biggest growth in the cosmetics and personal care division of retail sales over the next ten years (MarketResearch.com). Mineral makeup is recommended for its natural benefits, which include: gentle and hypoallergenic, natural sun protection, and it provides great coverage! Mineral makeup is recommended by dermatologists and aestheticians for all skin types- "Dry", " Normal", "Oily", "Combination"- and for various skin conditions: acne, rosacea, scarring, age spots and broken capillaries. Because of the natural luminosity of the minerals, this makeup tends to camouflage fine lines and minor wrinkles, providing a lovely youthful glow! Vanessa, along with Michelle Wallach, will be presenting Youngevity's® Mineral Makeup Collection™ this Saturday in Nashville, TN! Tonight's call will feature Youngevity's® newest Scientific Advisory Board addition, Dr. Melinda Silva, M.D. Dr. Silva will join the call to discuss the scientific benefits of mineral makeup, and, more specifically, the Youngevity® Mineral Makeup Collection™, which she endorses!

Ways to Help Keep Your Computer Safe Here are a few things you can do to help keep your computer safe and running smoothly.Remember to keep your anti-virus software updated. It's not enough to have the software installed (if you don't have an anti-virus package, stop reading right now and get one); you also need to keep up with new viruses as they emerge. Your anti-virus software is only as good as your latest virus definitions set. Programs like Symantec's Norton Anti-virus ($50) and Network Associates' McAfee VirusScan ($35 to $60) can automatically update their virus signature databases, but it costs an additional $20 to $35 for ongoing annual subscriptions. Use care when opening attachments. You get a message you think is from a friend with what looks like a cool file attached, so you click on it. Next thing you know, you're Typhoid Mary, spewing out infected e-mails to everyone in your address book. That's how some worms are spread--and it happened so quickly that millions of copies got out before the anti-virus companies could update their databases. Never open an attachment without verifying it was sent by a trusted person, and they meant to send it to you. Avoid bogus file downloads. Be wary of any website that requires you to download software to view a page, unless it's something familiar like a Flash plug-in or Acrobat Reader. The file may contain a virus, a Trojan horse, or some auto-dialer that calls pay-per-minute numbers via your modem and racks up huge charges. Do not be taken in by false claims. There are more hoaxers than hackers on the Internet, and more bogus "e-mail virus alerts" than actual viruses. Even real virus threats are typically blown out of proportion by the media. A phony warning could cause you to delete harmless files and then forward the message to others, clogging e-mail servers and causing virus-like damage in the process. When you get one of these e-mails (or see yet another breathless news story), check it out first. Type the name of the alleged virus into a search engine to see if any of the major security vendors have issued an alert, and visit the virus hoax pages at F-Secure and Hoaxbusters. Keep your operating system patched. E-mail-borne worms and other scourges like to exploit security holes in your software. These days Microsoft issues so many critical updates to fix these flaws that many users ignore them. Don't! Last January, the Slammer worm exploited a vulnerability that Microsoft had fixed more than six months before. But thousands of infected computers didn't have the patch installed. Run the Windows Update program once a week and whenever Microsoft issues a warning. Make backups and keep them safe. Simply put: Back up your data files at least weekly (daily if you're running a business). Even if you fall victim to a virus or hacker attack, you'll escape with only minor damage.
