Using A Press Release To Effectively Market Your Business- Making Your Press Release Stand Out

By Brock Hamilton

There is more to having an effective press release then just putting some information on a site and hoping for the best. This article will give you all of the tools that you need in order to write a press release that you and your business will be proud of for years.

The first step in having an effective press release is to make full use of keywords. This is the first key to making sure that you have an effective press release. The use of keywords will make all the difference as to whether or not your press release will have any of an impact or not.

Now it comes time for you to sit down and write an outline as to what your press release will look like with the final product. There are several important questions that you will need to ask yourself when it comes to writing the press release for distribution. The first question that you will need to ask yourself is what event or product am I making a release for? This will help in giving you a guide as to what you need to focus the press release on.

The next question that you need to make sure that you answer is the when question. This will be important as the people will need to know when the event happened or when will it be happening in the future? This will be important so that the person reading the release is informed with all of the needed information.

Who all is involved with the press release? This is a question that you will need to answer, if there are several people involved with the release then that will make things all that much better. Make sure that you name all of the people that are involved with the announcement. As mentioned earlier the more people that are involved then the better the exposure you will receive with your release.

Answer the question of what will make a person want to read this release and what about the event will make this important to a person that is reading this release. Make sure that you include information as to where people can find more information about this event. If there is a website that they can go to then that will make things more interesting to the readers.

Now that you have answered the important questions you will need to make sure that you use quotes in the release to show comments that you actually made. Look at a press release as you would a newspaper article. The reporter will want to use three of four of your quotes and this will be true when a person writes your press release. The last step is to make sure that you review it carefully. Once this has been put out there is no going back and making changes to it. What you give people is what you are stuck with as the final product. I hope that these articles has given you some basic insight into what makes a press release really catch a persons attention. When it comes time for your big announcement then you will have an edge as to what you will need to do to get noticed.

Private Placement Memorandum and OTCBB: Get More Investors Than You Can Handle, Easily

By James Scott

If you are trying to raise capital with a PPM or public entity like OTCBB you need to understand the mind of the investor. After the business plan sells the investor on the business concept you need to sell them on you and your executive staff. You need to stack your executive positions with professionals with a proven track record of success and possess a solid reputation in the industry. You must paint the picture for investors that your business is run by the who's who in your industry and this pedigree is demonstrated by your education, degree, grades in college, professional organizations of which you have been and are currently a member, advisory board positions with other corporate organizations, a track record of setting up and maintaining strategic alliances, networking contacts and more.

When an investor looks at your human resource list on your PPM, business plan or public offering docs it needs to scream power, authority and confidence. Each individual that you place on your advisory board must have a massive contribution other than 'advice'. Advisors should be able to prove their ability to assist in crucial decisions, connect your company with strategic partners and help you get to the next level.

Your legal counsel and CPA should be well known organizations with a long list of successful, well known organizations on their client roster and they should have a lot more to offer your company than just their fee based services. Again, these organizations should be able to set you up with partnerships that will help grow your business. As far as corporate awareness you must include a publicist. The publicist that you choose must be well versed in their comprehension of your industry genre.

They must be able to take your company and get you in front of the proper audience that is conducive to enhancing your growth potential. They must be able to demonstrate their knowledge of viral online marketing as well as traditional means of radio, TV and article promotion. They should be able to reach into their contact list and set you up with one interview after another targeting your specific audience.

These are just a few things to take into consideration when you jump on the fund raising trail. Every individual you have listed on your docs must be able to pass due diligence and have the appeal that reaches into the 'comfort' zone portion of the investor's mind.

Double Reading Speed in 11 Minutes - Cost $20

By Dr. Jay Polmar

Twenty bucks, and 11 minutes of your time will change your life in ways you never imagined.

Yes you read this right. In just 11 minutes, you will hear my story, and learn 3 secrets to improving your life through .... Reading. I am sure you know how to read, after all you are reading this article. But just how long will it take you to read this short article. 2 minutes, 5 minutes, longer.

Wise people already know what I am talking about - learning how to use your brain properly so that what you read becomes usable data, and knowledge to help you create greater success in life.

Recently a story came out on Mexico's national television, of a woman who was imprisoned for shooting her husband because he beat her, and repeatedly sold her to her friends for sexual use and beat her if she refused. Well, she just killed him and went to prison.

In prison, for the first time in her life - she was exposed to books of all kinds. She knew she did wrong but she had years to pay for her mistake and her repayment was to ready and study and enter university through the prison system to study to become a lawyer.

Really, the more you read of a similar subject, the faster you read that subject. The faster you read the subject that you are familiar with, the more that it becomes a part of your long-term memory. That's why when you first study basic primary school math, and you follow it and study smart, and go all the way through college - math is a thing that you become accustomed to. If you've studied really smart, it's really easy, and you can do some of it in your head without calculator or paper and pen.

It's also the same with reading, yet different. Imagine it this way - we teach you in 11 minutes how to read all kinds of materials more rapidly with greater comprehension than before, and get what you need out of it. Of course, it a beginners course, but in 11 minutes your increased your reading speed say 60-80% and as you use the techniques over the next few days the speed increase, and so does your understanding and comprehension.

Once you've spent $20 and studied for 11 minutes you will accomplish a great deal. But, what if you learned also, how to read a book for ultimate understanding and comprehension for test-taking or pleasure, and what if you also learn to write a paper for school, or grad school - without stress in 10 days or less, would that make your life easier.

Change your life in 11 minutes for 20 bucks, you really can't lose. Remember also, the more you read, the better you read, the more you remember - that's how the brain works.

How To Get An Ex Girlfriend Back Quickly

By Tom Freeno

There is so much advice out there giving you tips on how to get an ex girlfriend back it can seem like to much at times. I hate to be the one to tel you this but there are no secret tips and strategies that will make her fall in love with you again. But there are a few things that can be done to cause her to maybe like you again, they just aren't secrets. But, out of all the tips available today there is one that is hardly mentioned and this one may be the most important tip you will ever receive.

This one thing has the potential to make her come crawling back to you or completely run away from you. If it is used properly, you will get her back faster than you ever thought possible and your relationship will be stronger than it was even before the break up. I understand that may sound like a bit of an exaggeration, but it isn't. It is just that powerful.

Are you ready to know what the tip is?

It is your Mindset!

Do you feel as though you have just been lied to? If so then just leave this page. If you are interested in hearing more, then good for you. If you truly believe that you will get her back, if you truly understand that there is no way you can fail, every action you take will give you a better chance of winning her heart. One of the keys to getting her back is to never give up, and by having a great mindset about it, you won't give up until you have her back.

Most people confuse having the right mindset with positive thinking. But once you look at each one in detail, you will realize positive thinking is a good thing, but not near as good as having a proper mindset.

With positive thinking alone, no action is being taken. When you have a great mindset it will drive you to take action. Having both a proper mindset and thinking positive can be an extremely potent thing when trying to get her back.

So what now? What do you do when you have a good mindset? You need to develop a strategy to get her back.

Thinking About Taking A Company Public? You'll Need The Right Publicity

By James Scott

As a corporate publicist I'm constantly beat over the head with the latest and greatest way to get my client's brand out to the public in an orderly yet expedient manner. Fly-by-night methods and organizations come and go, yet the original promotional concepts that yield that greatest results are still at the forefront of the publicity industry, they've just evolved and taken a different shape.

Catering to the emotional triggers of the populace while weaving a web of information and post hypnotic cues through the cynical conscious minds to the unconscious faculty of legions of oblivious targets (oops! I mean 'potential customers') is still the name of the game. Television, the visual stimulus that fed exhausted, lackluster minds with a temporary, emotional escape from reality has been replaced by web-mercials and the fast pace of viral media.

The intellectuals that would gather facts on industry, politics and special interest concepts once supplied by the New Yorker and the New York Times is now replaced by the 24/7 information tornado of Web 2.0. Those colorful ads in Time and the Sunday paper have been overshadowed by interactive flash ads that cater to the senses of sight and sound. And of course the idiot radio DJ that would spit out grotesque and perverted one-liners while simultaneously converting the listeners mind matter to mush has been replaced by special interest audio and video Podcasts.

The reactions and actions of the population have kept the same structure, but the adaptability and ability to absorb messages has evolved. When marketing to the masses the path to the decision making sector of the mind is still initiated with a single stimulus such as an image, sound or scent. When the attention is attracted, keep that initial stimuli active like the hypnotic dance of the cobra, then use the other senses to input messages for instant or future action, in most cases this action is a purchase.

Using TV commercials and disc jockey desasters to promote a business on a shoestring or unlimited budget is like passing up a brand new luxury sedan for a'85 Hyundai. These methods are out of date and should only be used as modest forms of passive branding while the heavy lifting of promotional branding and call to action publicity marketing should be done with online video, social and news bookmarking, press release distribution, blogging, unique article distribution, Podcasts and other innovative white-hat methods that cater to habits of modern man.

Spyware Detection and Removal Advice

By Scott McKenzie

Spyware is more than just bothersome - it's software that records your buying and browsing habits and personal information and transmits this information to identity thieves.

Such things as "good" spyware do not exist. Once your pc is invaded by spyware, there is need to uninstall it. However spyware is composed of complex codes, codes that have the capability of concealing themselves so that you are not aware that they are presently set up and operating.

This is the reason why you should look carefully if your computer has spyware. A tell tale sign of spyware infection is the slowing down of your computer. These malicious software automatically installs in your computer without your approval and start to bog down your system resources.

However, spyware detection is not limited to hints and clues. You can also use spyware detection programs that will help you find out not only whether or not you have spyware installed on your computer, but also the names of the programs.

It is vitally important that you utilize a spyware detection program if you have reason to suspect that spyware is installed on your computer. If the amount of spyware on your system is small, however, you may not even know you have it. Therefore, it is advisable for you to run a spyware program every two months even if you don't think your system is infected. That way you can protect your personal information.

It is also suggested that you use a form of anti-spyware software in addition to your virus scan software. While many believe anti-virus scans can detect spyware, these are two different programs since viruses want to spread to other computers and spyware stays onto the affected machine only. Having programs specifically targeting spyware will ensure that your personal information is always kept private.

To remove spyware is not a problem but doing it on your own may prove bothersome. Many people try to delete spyware by hand,but in anticipation of this many spyware programs have additional programs running that reinstall the spyware once the computer is restarted.

If you wish to remove spyware from your system, then you have to have a similar detection program that eliminates the bugs that is catches. These programs come with the effective failsafe against reinstallation. They generally uninstall the spywares during the restart phase so that it will not be possible for the spywares to reinstall themselves at a later point of time.

Spy ware is malicious software that you would not want on your computer. Thus you have to be attentive to any signs that your computer may have spy ware installed. Some of them may include a sluggish computer and programs that are foreign to you. You also must carry out frequent tests using a spy ware detection program at least every few months. If you discover spy ware, look for a software that can eradicate it in order to protect your private information and personal identity.

Be Proud to Be An MC

By L.J. James

Think about the words Motorcycle Club! Why is it that when those words are heard together many think Crime or Criminal Organization? Say you are having an event and you are looking for a place to have it. You can have a book club and everyone will welcome you in! A cooking club and everyone really loves you. You say Motorcycle Club and right away its, Sorry we are busy on that day!

Motorcycle Clubs are even turned away from bars where they want to have events by Independent Bikers, Why is that? We need to let the world know that Bikers independent or in a Motorcycle Club can be good people! We can not show people that Motorcycle Club Members are not all bad if we are not allowed in a Bar because we are wearing Colors, Its the same thing if you are an independent biker and some one will not let you in some sports bar because you are wearing a leather jacket! I hope when an independent Biker who has turned away Motorcycle Clubs from his bar and is then turned away from a bar he wants to go in Understands the irony!

Some Motorcycle Clubs have even gone so far as to changed their name, they call themselves Riding Clubs, Motorcycle associations or some other type of group so they can leave out the words Motorcycle Club! and try to avoid the problems that come with being part of a Motorcycle Club! They say they are different from a Motorcycle Club ! They look and dress and act just like a motorcycle Club but they just call themselves something different! I say a rose by any other name !!!

These Clubs are just trying to get around all the prejudice associated with the words Motorcycle Club ! They are not part of the solution but are part of the problem! This is America and You can call your Club what ever you want, But the thing that unites you and your Club is the same thing that unites all who Ride! It is the Motorcycle! How can anyone leave out the word Motorcycle? It is the heart of what you are!

If You are a Motorcycle Club be proud of it and don't try to get around any problems by playing word games and calling yourself something else by using different words!!! This is just my opinion I would like to know what others think, Please email me at AmericanBikerX@Yahoo.com

Educational Software: Why It Is Recommended For Children?

By Benedict Perez

Now a days children of small age show interest in computers. The basic thing for which they use computer is for playing games. Whenever you see a small child sitting in front of a computer, it is definite that he is playing game. By looking at this thing, educational software is being developed. Education software means teaching in a computer way. Let us discuss this in detail.

Education software consists of numerous games. But just notice one thing, everything comes in form of games. This is because children enjoy playing games and educational software is designed in such a way that children playing these games can both enjoy and learn new things.

Educational software is not only for children but adults can also benefit from it. Educational software is for adults in the form of lessons and not in the form of games. Some of the examples of adult educational software is learning a new language; learn to play a musical instrument, practicing for a new exam, etc. These lessons are made interesting by adding many enjoyable examples.

The different educational software available for kids, teen and adults are Learn to type, language software, school software, toddler, and preschool and kindergarten software, grade school software, middle and high school software, reading and writing software, SAT and other exam prep software, math software and math games, science software, history software, storybooks, animals and wildlife, software for deaf, art software, learning games, drawing games, thinking games, mystery games, chess, learn to play an instrument, dictionary and bible.

But just keep in mind that you should not buy software without proper instructions. Just have a look at some of the instructions.

Now see if the software available is original or pirated and it is prepared for the age your child is of. If you will buy a game of different age group, your child will not understand it and all money will be wasted. So check the age limit on the case of the game. So it is very important to read the instructions written on the case.

Also check the specifications of your computer and see if it matches the specifications written on the software case. If you will buy it without checking anything, it is possible that your game will not work. This is same as Mac software will not run on PCs, and PC software will not run on Macs.

Last but not the least, check the level of difficulty for the game. Check if it is appropriate for your child. Also check the level of the game. If he is going to play the game first time, then it is important to buy the first level and then move on to higher levels. Educational software has revolutionized the learning experience and making the studies enjoyable.

An Excellence of Sony Ericsson - Aino

By Michael Shinoda

You can expect more than a Slider mobile phone with 8MP camera, excellent sound quality and A-GPS with Google Maps and touchscreen control for your media functions with Sony Ericsson Aino.

The Sony Ericsson Aino is a slider phone that had an entire room excited when at release, it claimed to have the ability to playback content directly from your PS3. But alas, it's not the PSP phone; instead you get a very solid and heavily featured phone with the ability to access media anywhere.

While it's never going to win the plaudits of the Sony Ericsson Satio, the Aino (pronounced I-no) is a very nice phone in its own right, and manages to edge above being simply solid into 'impressive' territory.

The first thing you notice is the weighty feel of the handset (as well as the startlingly dark hue the Obsidian Black is sporting, with your eyes feeling like they've been sucked into a vortex of mobile phone gravity). It's a reassuring weight, with a button layout that will be familiar to a number of the Sony Ericsson fraternity.

When I first saw that the Aino could sync with the PS3, I immediately had visions of surfing through the main menu of the PS3 on my mobile and playing games, sans joystick. Not in this version of the Aino, but I am hoping that I'm giving Sony Ericsson a few ideas. Not that they aren't already thinking what I'm thinking, I'm sure. Sony Ericsson's Aino should be available in the fall, but so far, there is no word on a price. Rumor has it that the Aino is slated for a European-only release.

Sony Ericsson Aino Features:

* 8 MP camera * Traditional keypad and touch User Interface * Media Home and Media Go easy to transfer all your multimedia * Remote Play with PLAYSTATION3 * Listen to music in amazing quality * Matching Wireless Stereo Headphone MH100 and desk stand charger EC100

Sony Aino is available in two colours Luminous White and Obsidian Black.

Sony Ericsson Aino Technical Specification:

* GSM / GPRS / EDGE (850 / 900 / 1800 / 1900) * UMTS / HSPA (900 / 2100) * 3.0? inch (432-240 pixels) Display * 8 megapixel camera with Auto Focus, face detection and touch focus * 55 MB internal Memory (Micro SD card slot) * Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g * a-GPS with Google Maps * Bluetooth with A2DP * FM Radio with RDS * Access NetFront Web Browser * 3D Games with Dedicated gaming keys * Email / Exchange ActiveSync support * 8.5 hours talktime on GSM and 4.5 hours talktime on 3G network * Weight - 134gm

Sony Ericsson Aino Price in India - 28,950/- Indian Rupee (INR) Or $615 USD

Can I Pick Up My Fax To Email Documents Anywhere?

By Graham McKenzie

There are many people that choose to use email technology instead of using a fax machine these days, but this does not mean that when you are to receive fax documents from someone who does have a fax machine that you are not able to turn the fax to email, so that you do not have to go out and buy any extra equipment.

Using a fax machine can prove costly when you think of all the extra expenditures. Not only do you have to maintain the machine itself, you also have to keep refilling the paper stocks, as well as the toners. To add to this you have to pay for the use of the fax line and number then you have to pay for each fax that you send, which can soon add up when you send quite a few.

When other people send you a fax, rather than having to spend all of this, you are able to receive the same information only electronically on your computer via your e mail. You can then choose what you wish to do with it, once received, which also means that you are able to just delete any junk advertising yet keep what you are interested in.

You can also delete any pages that are irrelevant and not have to throw the costly paper in the bin, only keeping the information that you need. You will not have the worry of losing any of the pieces of paper which is easily done in a crowded office or on a cluttered desk, and if you do print off and misplace it, you are always able to print off another copy.

Privacy is also something that is important to many people which is understandable, and of course you will not want to drop private information somewhere that it could be picked up and/or misused. This is not a problem when you receive your faxes via email as you can use the password protection.

Rather than having to wait until you get to the place your fax machine is located you are able to receive them anywhere you have internet access, this means that if you have your own business and usually have to go into work to collect it, as you can do so from your own home.

If the person you are communicating with does not have internet access this is not a problem as the service works both ways and will allow you to send an e mail that they can receive by fax. This will mean that you are not incurring the sending costs either. As you can now see there are many benefits from using this service over the fax machine plus you get to free up space for other things that you need and it takes away the clutter and fire hazard that lots of paperwork can cause.

Dreaming Of Taking Your Company Public: The Machiavellian Method of Fund Raising...Get Ready!

By James Scott

The psychological profile of business proprietors and entrepreneurs in general boasts the critical 'Risk Taker' element which allows one to take the leap from the financial security of a 9 - 5 job to the dicey waters of action based, success based income generation meaning: No Sales = No Money and No Food.

Many of these risk takers function within the realm of right brain communicative as opposed to left brain analytical which passes over the critical detail oriented solutions that are mandatory for raising capital. It is crucial for someone of this profile to hire a professional to come in and cross the t's and dot the i's in preparation for corporate fundraising efforts. After this is facilitated the entrepreneur needs to prepare mentally and emotionally for the turbulent road ahead.

Raising capital is no easy task and after the company is properly structured and you have an investor finder service, market maker or broker dealer in place to sell or promote your funding cause, you must step back, take a deep breath and prepare yourself mentally and emotionally. This preparation should start with the concept of 'objectivity' when you talk to investors, some will love your business model while others see an investment in your company as a waste of time. You must take these critiques, good and bad with a grain of salt. Don't get caught up in the habit of emotionally reacting to these ideas from outside sources, don't allow your mind to attach itself to an investor's idea of your company or it will drive you insane and you'll find that these emotional ups and downs will find their way home as your family will quickly be affected by your emotional fluctuation.

The second thing you must do is read and absorb the knowledge in such books as "The 48 Laws of Power" and "The 33 Strategies of War" by Robert Greene and of course "The Art of War" by Sun Tzu. These books deal with strategy that can easily be translated into the business world and can help you prepare mentally for the art of fundraising. Read these books cover to cover and then read them again. Absorb the intricacies and strategies that these books offer and make it a point to use these concepts in your daily professional life; believe me, you'll be glad you did.

The next thing you want to do is to study great strategists like Napoleon and Machiavelli. One thing that you will realize almost instantly is that these investors are out for their own gain, period (Why wouldn't they?). They will try to attract your attention with the right hand while their left hand is reaching in your financial records looking for chinks in your corporate armor to make their case for more equity for less investment. You need to be able to analyze, not just the words of the investor but also all the other elements of their expression such as: intonation, facial gestures, eye movement, standing and sitting positions and other 'tells' that can give you an insight to what they are truly trying to communicate so you can anticipate their next move. These are just a few things to consider before entering the world of venture capital. Raising money for a business is a daunting task only to the unprepared.

Railway Postcards Are A Fun Way To Let People Know You Are Thinking About Them

By Mitzi H. Hewitt

How long has it been since you sent a postcard greeting to friends or family. At one time travelers sent postcards to family and friends to show all the exciting new places they were getting to visit. One of the most popular was the railway postcards that would show the many fine and fancy trains and depots. Sadly many of the trains and stations are now gone, but you can still send railway postcards.

While many of the train stations have fallen into disrepair or been converted into some other use, there are still several in larger cities that have been restored to show the fine craftsmanship that was used in building these entryways to many of our cities.

It is harder to find railway postcards today, but you can still send similar cards that you make using your own photographs and card stock. Print those photos and send postcards to friends or family just as travelers of old did.

If you do not have your own photos you will also find collections of real railway postcards the can be printed and sent to friends and family. You can have postcards that look like the real railway cards that are very inexpensive.

One of the best ways to print and send postcards is through an online postcard service. The service allows you to choose your own image, either from your own digital camera, or the millions of images online for the front of the card. Cards are sent for the same fee no matter where the are mailed.

Once you choose your image for the front, you can compose your message, add an address, pay the fee and your card is sent through the mail to the recipient. That recipient will receive an authentic looking railway card in his or her snail mail box and it was little more effort than if you had sent an e-mail.

How Do You Know if Your PC is Infected with Spyware?

By Scott McKenzie

Spyware, the worst form of malware with the potential to steal your identity, does a good job of hiding itself so that you cannot simply look on your computer and see if you have any spyware programs installed. Because of this, in order to find out if your computer is infected with spyware, you have to look for signs that there is some type of spyware that is affecting your system, so that you can quickly do something about it before your personal data has been stolen.

Slowing of the computer performance is the first sign that shows you might be having spyware on your computer. Computer allocates its resources between multiple running programs to maximize their performance and to make them work effectively. Spyware is also a program which is running in background all the time and computer resources needs to be allocated to it which eventually slows computers performance over time.

The next sign is multiple strange program names coming up when you view a list of all running programs. There are spyware programs that are able to hide their presence, but if you see the names of programs that do not look at all familiar, chances are that they are spyware that was unable to mask itself from your computers program detection.

Occasionally these are created by trustworthy programs " for example, AOL used to install a number of different trial programs when you added them to your hard drive - but they can also be caused by spyware that is attempting to get you to download a program in order to steal some of your identity or infect your computer further.The third sign of spyware is when you find icons on you computer for trial services that should not have been installed.

As mentioned previously, even if nothing too severe has occurred to your computers performance, you still need to remove it in order to ensure that worse spyware does not install itself in the future.In addition, if it has been a long time since you have reformatted your hard drive, chances are you have at least some low level spyware that may not be dangerous, but is going to be negatively affecting your computer.

Apart from being difficult to find, spyware is also difficult to get rid of. If you don't manage to get rid of the entire spyware program, most of them can then reinstall themselves, therefore it's essential to use special software to successfully locate and uninstall it.

Spyware, even non-invasive spyware, can cause a host of problems for your computer and put you at risk for identity theft. If your computer is infected, you'll probably notice it's running slower, but there's a lot of work going on behind the scenes as well. Even a seemingly innocuous spyware program can attract malicious programs that can record personal and financial data. If you think your computer might be infected, you should make it a top priority to remove it before it's able to collect and disseminate your personal information.

Taking A Company Public Only Works With The Right Publicity

Using television and AM/MF to promote a business on a shoestring or unlimited budget is like passing up a brand new luxury sedan for a'85 Hyundai. These methods are out of date and should only be used as modest forms of passive branding while the heavy lifting of promotional branding and call to action publicity marketing should be done with online video, social and news bookmarking, press release distribution, blogging, unique article distribution, Podcasts and other innovative white-hat methods that cater to habits of modern man.

It has always been fashionable, perhaps to a fault, but the iPhone has graduated from phone to smart-phone to phantom limb. Short of slicing and dicing, the iPhone is an unparalleled GPS tracking device, media player, and Internet platform. It has become synonymous with cutting-edge, beautifully designed engineering.

The iPhone has become more than a phone. It's a cultural phenomenon. It is a navigator, game platform, television, music player, and even an instrument. Once it was nothing ore than a trinket for the idle rich. Now, it is a vital component for millions worldwide. It gives credence to the old adage: wants become needs as income increases. To be sure, few cellphones can compare to its sleek, seamless design.

Its 3G platform allows users to connect to the Internet in milliseconds. This allows people to use the Internet and other features up to twice as fast as the old models. The cost for third generation models is very agreeable. Also, it appears as if the third generation phones have smoothed out the edges that plagued the second-generation phones, namely a Cut & Paste function. This has opened the door for many more people being able to afford this smart-phone.

Of course, what makes the iPhone what it is, is the touch screen. You don't use a stylus or another device to navigate which makes it quicker to get to where you want. There isn't even a keyboard on the phone, but instead you get a virtual keyboard on the screen. You can email, send pictures, or browse the web extremely fast regardless of where you are. The phone even operates as a video player. You can store all your songs and videos on the phone and watch them or listen to them at will. With all of these cool features, the best new feature is the GPS capability on the iPhone 3G.

You have the ability to find where you are and how to get to where you need to go. The phone integrates with Google Maps and can find your location within a matter of seconds. A map is brought up and your location is represented by a blue dot on the screen. It integrates with several iPhone features to give you a completely unique experience with your phone.

Getting Your Girlfriend Back May Be Easier Than You Think!

By Zack Faust

Being dumped by your girlfriend sucks. The pain and confusion you experience right after the breakup can be so powerful you really don't know what to do. However, if there is one thing you know, it is that you want to get the love of your life back. Getting your girlfriend back can take some work and there really are no promises, but there are a few things you should be doing that will really help you when it comes to getting her back.

First, you need to analyze exactly what caused the break up. I will give you a list of examples as to what could have caused it:

Is there another guy? She may have lost the romantic feelings for you You might have an annoying habit that drives her insane Something dramatic may have happened in her life.

The list could go on forever, but you need to figure out what it was.

Now you need to figure out if you can actually change who you are. Most men get dumped due to a lack of attraction. We are not talking about actually physical attraction here either. Women are more attracted to a personality and if there is something in your personality that she does not like you are not going to get her back. The important three personalities are being interesting, being confident, and being romantic. By combining all of those you will be able to attract any girl you wish to.

Step number three may sound a bit odd but it works very well. Most girls get jealous and if your ex is the kind of girl to get jealous then take other girls out on dates. Once she notices you are with other girls rather than her she may try to actually get you back.

I am sure you are wondering when you should talk to her again, now is the time. You need to become her friend again. And when I say friends I really do mean friends. Don't try to get her back right away. Go out to starbucks, or maybe have some fun and go play putt putt. It is extremely important to show confidence when you guys hang out. However, make sure you avoid being romantic for just a little bit longer.

The last step is to show the romantic side. After about two weeks of being her "friend" it is now time to make the move. She already knows you guys can have fun together, now you need to show her you can provide for her when it comes to life. Set up a date and make it a night she will never forget. I cannot help you with date ideas because every girl is different. But I can tell you getting your girlfriend back is much easier when the girl is having fun with you, so make sure she has fun!

Cheaponsale.com Reports China's BYD Aims For Country's Top Slot Before 2015

By Tian Li

China's battery and electric carmaker BYD Co. is aiming to become the nation's largest passenger car manufacturer ahead of its targeted 2015 schedule, China Daily reported Thursday.

The newspaper said, citing a senior company executive, that BYD was also making efforts to fulfill its dream of overtaking Toyota as the world's No. 1 carmaker, through annual sales of over 10 million cars by 2025, via a series of "prudent" moves it made recently.

Wang Jianjun, deputy general manager of BYD Auto Sales Co. Ltd., said the company doesn't have any plan to boost its business by acquiring foreign brands or assets.

In the first eight months of 2009, the Shenzhen-based firm sold 246,881 cars in total. Its half-year sales were up 133 percent over last year. Wang said he was positive BYD would sell 400,000 units this year.

F3, the most popular BYD model, was crowned China's best selling car thrice - in January, July and August - this year. The company is planning to sell 180,000 F3 cars this year. In August, sales of BYD's small car F0 touched 10,023 units, making the company the first local car brand with two models breaching the 10,000-unit sales barrier.

Last week, the Hong Kong-listed company said that it had received the necessary shareholder approval for a public float on the Shenzhen Stock Exchange within one year, with a 100-million-share issue to raise funds for its new energy vehicle projects.

At the end of July, BYD said it planned to expand its existing production facility in Xi'an by setting up a new plant with an annual output of 400,000 units to produce its F3 cars, other new models and auto parts. Wang said these prudent moves promise healthy development for BYD in the next few years.

Small Business Owner Success Traits

By Steven Schlagel

The traits of a successful small business owner include their skills and talents, their character, their attitude, their passion, and their dedication to learning and adhering to key business principles. Without these traits, you won't succeed. No one can.

Passion for a particular industry or business is important, yes, you you can't do it on that alone. You have to have the aptitude and skills. Your natural talents that have been enhanced through experience and education and skill development are required to build your business. Then you must find the under-served market that you can cater to.

We talk about character as a trait necessary to starting a small business. Character isn't just honestly, but also the patience to oversee a startup. It requires confidence, courage and a calm, assertive manner to avoid too much stress and frustration.

You must be committed to being a lifelong learner if you are going to be a small business owner. You must study marketing techniques, accounting principles, technology, human resources information and communication skills. You may have to learn Power Point, QuickBooks, basic web design in addition to staying on top of industry trends within your specific business!

Everyone that you love and interact with socially is going to be impacted by your decision to start a new business. When planned well, your new business should not always be all-consuming, but in the beginning (the first year, minimum) you can absolutely anticipate more stress and less time.

Your spouse or partner is the person most likely to be hit hard by this loss of free time due to your startup venture. It can impact your relationship financially and emotionally. It is imperative that you set up a strong support system for things like child care and transportation and to be open to listening to concerns.

You do not want to lose a marriage because of your business. It happens! So YOU have to be willing and able to set boundaries around the business as well while fostering open communication with those who are impacted.

One major lifestyle issue to get a handle on in advance of a business startup is your personal spending habits. Starting a business often drains your cash reserves and it can be easy to get into financial trouble if you don't stay aware. You will have to curb your personal spending until your business starts to turn a profit.

Watching personal spending is a commitment both you and your spouse or partner need to have to give your business the best chance for success. It's always a good idea, no matter what stage of business you are in, that you manage your personal spending well.

Remember, you WILL have a personal life, but your small business is going to be a large part of it. Keep family as involved as they should or can be. A spouse or life partner is often the biggest part of an owner's success! It was true for me.

Security For Business Communications

By Graham McKenzie

Data is the most important ally of any businessman, if used and stored properly and securely. The main problem to do this is that the necessity of storing the data in the office is felt by almost all the businessmen. The data is always critical to the organization and its development. It must be prevented from falling into the wrong hands. Any such leakage might cause major problems to the organization, to the point of even closing the entire organization.

Since almost every business uses computers to store their valuable data, the security of the computers is extremely important. Having software that will prevent hacking, spy ware and viruses is a must to keep your important data from getting into the wrong hands.

Along with computers, telephones are used to communicate with clients in the business world. Communication via phone must also be protected from malicious types, also. In recent years, VoIP has become more widely adopted across businesses because it provides the ability to improve competencies and increase productivity. VoIP provides a business with the ability to make calls at a lower rate than conventional methods and also provides a wide feature set when compared with a conventional phone. These features can provide businesses with better ways to communicate while not taking as much from operational costs. VoIP gives the users the capabilities to access audio and videoconferencing, text messaging, call waiting, and three-way calling with some of these not being charged. When compared with conventional phones, VoIP can provide great costs savings.

Because of the advantages that VoIP provides, attuned businesses are leaving conventional phones behind and adopting VoIP. VoIP can provide these features and beneficial cost savings because it uses the internet as its communication backbone and this allows for free data transfers. The transference of audio signals via VoIP uses the same data transfer principles as computers. VoIP moves audio through the internet and converts the audio signal from an analog signal to digital data, improving quality and clarity.

With the innovation of Wi-Fi, a user can use his VoIP telephone to call anyone anywhere. Since it is easier and faster to make telephone calls with a telephone rather than waiting for a computer to boot up, the user can save valuable time which gives him more time to devote to the success of his business, which in turn can lead to higher profits. Some consumers have questions concerning security when using wireless telephones for communication. It is now possible to have a program that ensures your privacy. Using the latest technology, Wi-Fi has telephones that can only be used if a username and password are entered, preventing unauthorized use of your telephone.

Wi-Fi also offers a firewall for your phone which further ensures your security. Encryption devices are also available. These options are easily attainable and will reassure you that no one can get access to your private telephone calls.

Many Wi-Fi phones come with built-in security features such as privacy software and encryption. These phones may cost more than some other phones but are well worth the price for the peace of mind that they provide. In protecting your privacy, they may well save you money in the long run. Since information is vital to every business, it is important that you be constantly aware of the need to protect your data from would-be intruders. VoIP and a Wi-Fi connection can be valuable tools to help you meet these goals.

Eliminating the Confusion of The Cell Phone Industry

By Stanley Rachert

Making a choice about the right cell phone plan for you or your family can be a daunting task. It's tough to know which company to use, especially if you just need a basic phone and service. Most any salesperson at a cell phone retailer will attempt to convince you to purchase more options than you need. It is more than likely that you will have to ask specifically to see an older phone because the salesperson will be relentless in their efforts to sell you the newest technology and plan.

It is almost certain that as soon you choose a cell phone plan to meet your needs and sign the contract, the company will advertise a new plan, with more minutes than the plan you just purchased. Only under very unusual circumstances will they allow you to change to the improved plan, so you are basically trapped in the inferior plan for at least a year.

Perhaps your best bet is to go with a prepaid service where you can really control how much you spend. All the other plans have a monthly charge and if you don't want to get involved with one of those, the prepaid option is the best. With a prepaid service you never have to pay more than you have put in and there is no chance of running over on minutes making it the safest route.

Seniors are not always as quick to pick up on new technology as the younger generations. In fact, sometimes they never pick it up at all. In the case of cell phones, it is smart to look for the best cell phone plans for seniors as the regular ones might be too expensive and give too many minutes. There are plans that are designed just for senior or ones that would be better for seniors. There are also cell phones available that are easier to use that don't have all the fancy buttons and gadgets but just the necessities. If you are looking into getting a cell phone for a senior, you should look into all the plans and phones available to find the simplest ones.

While looking for a cell phone and plan for the first time can be overwhelming and confusing, it does get easier with subsequent phones and plans. Some people upgrade their phone annually, while others will keep the same phone for as long as it is still working. The cell phone companies are constantly offering newer phones with newer, greater features and better plans to convince as many people as they can to make the switch to their company.

Frbiz.com Reports Production Starts At Evonik's Shanghai Facility

By Tian Li

German industrial group Evonik yesterday began operating its 2.5-billion-yuan specialty chemicals facility in Shanghai in a bid to tap growing domestic demand. The facility can produce annually 100,000 tons of methyl methacrylate (MMA), the derivatives of which are used mainly for LCD screens, and in the construction and automotive industries.

The facility, which is also the company's second largest investment ever in the chemicals business, shows Evonik "is continuing to focus on what will be the largest and fastest growing market in the world", said Klaus Engel, chairman of the executive board of Evonik Industries AG.

The Chinese market accounts for around 7 percent of Evonik's global chemicals business, said Yu Dahai, president of Evonik Greater China.

The company plans to increase medium-term sales in the country to around 2 billion euros, by when it would account for 15 percent of its global revenue, said Yu. Last year, Evonik's sales in China were worth 821 million euros. "We will focus more on organic growth in China in the future," said Yu, adding that Evonik will also look at some merger and acquisition opportunities in the country.

At present, there are numerous small chemicals producers using outdated technology in China, but the sector is expected to consolidate in the next few years, said analysts. Around half of Evonik's production will be for domestic consumption, while the rest would be exported, said Yu.

The global market for MMA products is growing by about 5 percent annually, with Asia driving this expansion, the company said. Evonik has implemented an integrated production concept by optimizing the use of production facilities and raw materials, in a bid to protect the environment and help in sustainable development, said Patrik Wohlhauser, chairman of the management board of Evonik Degussa GmbH.

Evonik operates in three business domains - chemicals, energy and real estate. It has been producing specialty chemical products in China since the early'90s. The company now has a total of 20 companies and 16 production sites in China, with around 4,000 employees.

LED Televisions

By Ricky Strauss

Watching television is a favourite pass time to people all over the globe. In fact, using the TV to play games and watch movies has become such an important part of the lives of society, that manufactures continue to search for ways to enhance the television experience. In most cases, this includes a clearer picture, a bigger screen, or better sound. All of these aspects are wrapped up into the latest TVs inventions known as the LED high definition television.

From the trial of using LEDs for color and clarity in screen projection has evolved the LED television. LEDs are better than fluorescent or incandescent bulbs at directing light in a single direction. These television have much the same features as LCD TVs except that they make use of LEDs. The LEDs are either placed along the outer edges of the screen or across the back of it. Television with perimeter LEDs are edge-lit and televisions with LEDs in the back are back -lit.

The methods of LED technology that manufacturers use for creating LED televisions create two different perspectives for viewers. When the LEDs are placed along the side of the televisions, the screen depth size capabilities are reduced greatly. The screen can be thinner due to the lack of LEDs in the back. An edge lit TV also costs less than a back lit LED TV. However, when the LEDs are used across the back of the televisions, deeper and darker blacks are formed. The LEDs can actually be shut off so no light comes through. In the television world this is referred to as local dimming.

The cost of the clarity and color improvements with a LED HDTV comes with a cost. An upgrade to one of these televisions may cost the buyer up to $4000. Yet, with the upgrade the viewer gains much intensity in action films and gaming. LED TVs are more efficient at creating excellent pictures of fast motions. The LED HDTV manufacturers also claim that television cuts energy consumption by 40%.

Once the decision to upgrade has been made, there are several factors to consider before shopping for a new TV. A careful comparison should be made between LED TVs, LCD TVs, and Plasma TVs. The newest of the three, LED TVs, offer larger screen options. Their viewing angle is still short of the plasma but the reflective screen and burn out issue are not a problem.

When looking at terms associated with a LED screen, the word high definition will likely arise. All LED TVs has full high definition but not to the same degree. The LEDs in a LED screen combine to form little pixels or dots that contribute to the visual output. These red, blue, and green pixels work together to form all other colors including white. On some screens, a group of 9000 LEDs may be located within any one meter. In this case, the LEDs would be close together with a small pitch, space between them. A TV with a small pixel pitch has higher definition than screens with larger pixel pitch.

In addition to LEDs making their way into the world of television, they are now breaking ground with the LED monitor. The once popular flat screen LCD monitor has been outdone when it comes to color accuracy and precision. The LED monitors are created without metal that is found in other bulb type monitors. NEC is one of the first to put the LED monitor on the market with a cost reaching up to $6000 or more to purchase.

While there is no rush to run out and upgrade all electronic screens to LED screens, it does appear that this is where the future of viewing is headed. In given time the cost of the screens along with the size capabilities will decrease making LED TVs a common sight in homes everywhere.

It cannot be avoided that at some point in your life you will find the need to look for information about somebody living in New Jersey. If you have a persistent suitor, for instance, you can easily check his background using the online facilities of the records unit of New Jersey. You'll be able to access to his personal records, such home and work address, contact numbers, employment history, educational background, administrative records, and so on.

Through the online public records system, you'll be able to view his administrative records, employment records, educational background, contact details, and many more.

You must be prepared with your payment, though, if you want to access all these information.

Perhaps, the only thing that's free is entering the keyword of what you want to search for. In the case of people search, you can enter the name of the person on the site's designated box, but that's about it; you won't be able to get any relevant information.
