Get Life Insurance Leads from LeadsClearance

Although this is the age of online shopping, for the uninitiated, it may be a surprise to know that you can actually shop for insurance leads. There is a site, LeadsClearance.com, which is offering qualified insurance leads at low rates and with no hidden charges (should be great news for insurance agents).

You can preview prospects before you buy so you only pay for the leads that you choose. There are no pre-payments, up-front costs, contracts or cancellation terms, no blanket billing authorization, no blind monthly fees (see there are so many charges to mark up the price of leads, it is scary).

The site basically connects insurance agents with targeted consumers, it functions exactly like your usual e-shop. There is a wide range of life insurance leads from health, disability, long term care, renters, auto, home, life, small business benefits, final expense to annuity. Once you decide on the type of lead, you can sort by state and county.

Anytime you want to know more about a particular lead, you can preview a lead report which contains the full contact information by clicking on "view" link. If you have decided to purchase the lead, you can add it to your shopping cart. You will receive your purchased leads by email, store it in your online file with LeadsClearance.com and work the lead from there, or download into a database on your PC.

The leads can be sold on exclusive, if available, or semi-exclusive basis, with a maximum of two competitors. An attractive point about the site is that should the lead turn out to have bogus contact information, they will credit the cost back to your account.

So if you an insurance agent and are needing to find fresh leads it could be worth taking a look at LeadsClearance to see if it works out for you.

Weekly shorts: Big Four collide

In a mouth-watering weekend, Liverpool take on Chelsea as both sides test each others title-winning potential. Meanwhile, a resurgent City under Sven-Goran Eriksson play wobbling champions United in a crunch derby.

Manchester United's performance has been less than convincing so far and with the loss of last season's top two scorers: the injured Wayne Rooney, and Cristiano Ronaldo, suspended for head-butting, they could be looking at another draw match. Manchester City revitalised under a new owner and management have the chance to capitalise on the weakand prove that they are serious contenders this season.

In Saturday's matches, league leaders Everton look to keep up their perfect start at Reading. Early pace-setters Everton have got the better of Tottenham and Wigan so far, but they travel to Reading, whose man-marking tactics squeezed a goalless draw out of Manchester United and gave Chelsea a fright before the Blues ground out a win. "We'll be playing three from the top six inside a week, and it's as if it's the hardest possible hurdle we could have been set," said Royals boss Steve Coppell.

Big-spending Tottenham, desperate for a first win, host newly-promoted Derby County. Tottenham were tipped to be among the top sides this season but they have lost both matches so far. "Now there is more pressure to get a result," said Spurs boss Martin Jol's assistant Chris Hughton. Soccer Pundit believes that against Derby, they should be able to get the 3 points.

West Ham travel to Birmingham with new signing Kieron Dyer set to make his Hammers debut. Birmingham have been frustrated in their matches so far, losing 3-2 at Chelsea and succumbing to a disputed last-minute equaliser in a 2-2 draw at home to Sunderland. West Ham hasn't been on a roll either as they embarrassed when visitors Manchester City tore them apart in a 2-0 opening day win.

Newcastle boss Sam Allardyce takes charge of his first league match at St James's Park as the Magpies host Aston Villa. England striker Michael Owen could make a welcome return for Newcastle, who have not scored at home since February.

However, Villa boss Martin O'Neill wants his defenders to close down the likes of Owen more."If we could just tighten up a little bit, especially when we haven't got the ball, then I honestly believe we will start to do better," the Northern Irishman said."Once we get going, we'll be fine."

For the Middlesbrough vs Fulham match, Mido should make his debut. Boro lost both their opening games and boss Gareth Southgate cannot wait for the tall Egyptian striker to get started."You want a centre-forward to hold the ball up, to be a physical presence and to score goals. Mido brings all of those attributes," he said."Mido is a player I believe possibly has a point to prove. He is a player of great ability, a strong player and a big character."

Roy Keane's Championship winners Sunderland travel to Wigan looking to capitalise on their four points from six games so far, with new striker Michael Chopra scoring in both games. "Hopefully I can make it three in three at Wigan," he said."I've got self-belief and I always thought I should be playing in the Premier League."

Portsmouth host Bolton, who have lost both their opening games."It's right that we've got no points out of the two games but I want the players to have the belief in what they are doing," Bolton boss Sammy Lee said.

Find The Perfect Baseball Gloves For Kids

Baseball is a great sport (besides soccer), and choosing good baseball gloves can be an important aspect of the entire baseball experience.

There are baseball gloves available for different positions, for example a catcher's glove is different from an outfielder's glove. If you are just buying a couple of gloves to play some backyard catch with your kids, then any pair of gloves will do.

You also should look at how the glove fits you. As you slide your hand in, you want it to feel molded with your fingers. You should be able to open and close your hand while wearing the baseball glove; however there should also be a bit of stiffness.

Punch your free hand into the glove while you're wearing it; get a feel for the easiness of grip you will have while wearing it. Make sure its not going to fly off your hand if you swing your arm.

Now you have some basic information and are looking for baseball gloves but don't know where to start, you can go to Kidsportsinc.com.

They offer a wide range of Franklin Sports equipment for either recreational or team play. There is a great array of youth baseball equipment, youth baseball gloves, batting gloves, T-ball equipment, and youth games here at Kids Sports Inc.

Their youth baseball gloves are especially popular among kids and teen baseball players. Whether your child plays outfield or infield, these gloves can help him/her feel more comfortable catching fly balls or grounders. Franklin's attention to quality is the reason their youth baseball gloves are preferred by many youngsters and parents.

As for the price consideration, most baseball gloves will range from around $20 to $200. For a game of catch you might want to spend a little less than you would for a glove being used in game situations. Children are more likely to outgrow their gloves as they get older, so you want to spend accordingly, keeping in mind that next year probably means a new baseball glove.

If your kids love baseball, then it is time to add some quality youth baseball gloves and your child will feel like a pro and play better.

Rooney injury a blow for England

Former England head coach Sven-Goran Eriksson believes that the loss of Wayne Rooney could prove to be an insurmountable blow for England's Euro 2008 qualifying hopes.

he Manchester United striker is out for two months after fracturing a bone in his foot against Reading on Sunday and will miss most if not all of England's remaining European Championship games.

Eriksson, now manager of Manchester City, said although his successor Steve McClaren had other good options there was no one to compare with the 21-year-old.

Eriksson said: "I don't know how many games he will miss for England but I suppose Steve McClaren is not happy about that. It's very, very bad luck - as before the World Cup."

"Of course England have other quality players but it's a simple fact that in this country you don't have two Rooneys, you have only one. There are other good players but Rooney is Rooney and that's it."

Eriksson at least will not to have to plan how to combat Rooney in this weekend's Manchester derby.

But he added: "I feel very sorry for Rooney, he has had a similar injury to before the World Cup last year. It's unlucky and of course it's bad for Manchester United and it's bad for England."


'Some people believe football is a matter of life and death. I'm very disappointed with that attitude. I can assure you it is much, much more important than that.'
