This article was re-printed with permission from The National Networker RSS and Daily Email Feed. While the exceptional women discussed in the article are established in the United States, be advised of two important factors: 1) women throughout much of the World are making aggressive strides toward self-determination and growth, and 2) the female entrepreneurs in the United States will be growing their businesses and their potent influence internationally, through the conduit of the Internet. You are advised, dear Readers, to pay close attention. --DC

Dedication to The Winning Women's Vortex - The WWV

Dear Friends, Colleagues, Members and those nosy persons who are sneaking a peek over the shoulders of the aforementioned three categories of legitimate readers because you've not bothered to get your own free subscription to The National Networker business publications by simply clicking on http://bit.ly/JoinTNNW - For Shame! :

The Winning Women's Vortex, an amazing site which is being sponsored by The National Networker Companies and which will be moderated by Author, Featured TNNW Columnist and Connectrix Ann Barczay Sloan is going to be opened for a brief preview on April 14th, at http://thewinningwomensvortex.blogspot.com/.

It should be noted that the site will feature multiple interactive communities featuring topics of interest to women of ambition - these topics will include, but will not be limited to the chartering of a credit union, a venture capital and business bootstrapping fund, a collective bargaining/ lobbying unit and other new institutions and programs to be established by women and for women.

The site's Founder and Moderator, Connectrix Ann Barczay Sloan, is also the author of the soon-to-be-released book, "THE POWER OF PASSION: Winning Women Reveal Their Success Secrets," which will contain Ann's interviews with 17 of the most promising female thought leaders and entrepreneurs standing at the leading edge of the movement for Women's Entrepreneurship, Leadership and Empowerment.

These women will also be involved as advisors, pundits and futurists on the WWV site, and they will be accessible to the public.

TNNWC has recently been reporting on the activities and achievements of several of these truly outstanding women, including:

Bonnie Ross-Parker (America's Connection Diva and the Founder of The Joy Of Connecting, at http://www.thejoyofconnecting.com/ and The Latina Joy Of Connecting) creator of the world's most revolutionary system for in-home women's networking and relationship-building;

Sandra Levitin, the Founder, Publisher and Editor of Kalön Women, and of Kalön Women’s Magazine at http://kalön-women.com/, two of the fastest-growing sensational resources for women 40 and over in the United States; and

Paula Fellingham, a media champion and Founder of The Women's Information Network (The "WIN") at http://www.thewinonline.com/ - a broadcasting machine which reaches an audience in the millions of women.

Gentlemen (myself, an others similarly equipped)...these women are breaking down all barriers...we can either learn to surf, or be crushed by the coming Tidal Wave. Personally, I'm learning to be very nice, and to treat these amazing females with great respect - I would insist that you do the same, fellows, or risk the consequences.

Faithfully,

p.s. Ann Barczay Sloan sent me these terrific and clever insults in an attempt to keep me in good spirits (perhaps my mother has been paying her -- I am always suspicious when a woman is nice to me). Adam J. Kovitz (TNNWC's Founder who tries to push me around ) and I decided to share these beauties with you. Thanks again, Ann -- our favorite Connectrix:

When Insults Had Class

These glorious insults are from an era before the English
language got boiled down to 4-letter words (and people
still used their brains, if they had any!).
-- The exchange between Churchill & Lady Astor:
She said, "If you were my husband I'd poison your tea."
He said, "If you were my wife, I'd drink it."

-- A member of Parliament to Disraeli: "Sir, you will either die
on the gallows or of some unspeakable disease."
"That depends, Sir," said Disraeli, "whether I embrace your
policies or your mistress."

-- "He had delusions of adequacy." - Walter Kerr

-- "He has all the virtues I dislike and none of the vices I admire." -
Winston Churchill

-- "I have never killed a man, but I have read many obituaries
with great pleasure." Clarence Darrow

-- "He has never been known to use a word that might send a
reader to the dictionary." - William Faulkner (about Ernest
Hemingway).

time reading it." - Moses Hadas

approved of it." - Mark Twain

- Oscar Wilde

friend.... if you have one." - George Bernard Shaw to Winston Churchill
"Cannot possibly attend first night, will attend second... if there is one."
- Winston Churchill, in response.

-- "I feel so miserable without you; it's almost like having you here."
- Stephen Bishop

- Irvin S. Cobb

-- "Why do you sit there looking like an envelope without any
address on it?" - Mark Twain

-- "His mother should have thrown him away and kept the stork."
- Mae West

-- "Some cause happiness wherever they go; others, whenever
they go." - Oscar Wilde

rather than illumination." - Andrew Lang (1844-1912)
