Revit Essentials
Gain credibility and get ahead with our AutodeskTraining & Certification
Learn basic modeling techniques for Building Information Modeling (BIM), including building elements, building envelope, curtain systems, interiors and circulation, and creating families.
This course will be demonstrated on the Autodesk® Revit® software.
■ An understanding of Architectural terminology is an asset.
■ Beginner (No experience required)
Course Outline
The Autodesk® Revit® software is a powerful Building Information Modeling (BIM) program that works the way architects think. The program streamlines the design process through the use of a central 3D model, where changes made in one view update across all views and on the printable sheets.

Then you learn design development tools including how to model walls, doors, windows, floors, ceilings, stairs and more. Finally, you learn the processes that take the model into the construction documentation phase.
The main topics covered include:
■ Understand the purpose of Building Information Management (BIM) and how it is applied in the Autodesk Revit software
■ Navigating the Autodesk Revit workspace and interface
■ Working with the basic drawing and editing tools
■ Creating Levels and Grids as datum elements for the model
■ Creating a 3D building model with walls, curtain walls, windows, and doors
■ Adding floors, ceilings, and roofs to the building model.
■ Creating component-based and custom stairs.
■ Adding component features, such as furniture and equipment.
■ Setting up sheets for plotting with text, dimensions, details, tags, and schedules.
■ Creating details.

Ipsy June 2016 Glam Bag {Rebel Rebel}9:00 AM
|be a...bombshell Pout Potion in shade "Secret"
Full Size Price: $14.00
Being a lip product junkie, I am always excited to see lip glosses in my Ipsy bag. This is a creamy gloss formula in a nude pink shade. It is a very subtle gloss and is one that can be built upon to achieve the coloring you prefer. I found this to work a lot better as a top gloss for a nude lipstick as it gave it more staying power and more color to my lips. I am quite fair skinned so with the gloss alone it kind of dulls my look a bit too much. The scent reminds me of a sunscreen with a tropical hint to it, not the greatest but not the worst either. Overall, I really enjoy the formula and would consider purchasing other shades. I was unable to find the sizing for this product so I can not give an accurate opinion on whether this is full size or the sample size value.
|Hey Honey 24Seven Day & Night Moisturizing Cream
Full Size Price: $38.00
Sample size value is approximately: $11.41
I am a big fan of Hey Honey products and was excited to try out this moisturizing cream. This is a natural revitalizing cream that can be used for face, neck, and around the eye area. It provides anti-aging benefits and is perfect for delicate skin that is showing signs of aging by preventing the dryness that causes wrinkles. It is also suitable for all skin types. To use this product, simply apply sparingly all over the face and neck area in the morning and evening after cleansing. I found this product provided my typically dry skin with a nice moisture that was not greasy nor irritating in any way. It carries a nice sweet scent that does linger on the skin for a bit after application. I really loved how well it worked and how quickly it set into my skin. I would purchase the full size of this product.
|The Everything Balm "Delectable" by Cake Beauty
Full Size Price: $16.00
Sample size value is approximately: $6.40
This is a product that carries a lot of uses in just one small container. This balm's key ingredient is high-performing natural caster oil. Due to it's deep penetration capabilities, it is known to stimulate the production of collagen and elastin, encourage hair, brow, and lash strength and growth, and soothe skin from head to toe. This super ingredient is supplemented with shea butter, coconut oil, cocoa butter, and sunflower seed oil. It claims to provide more than 21 uses and is cruelty free, paraben-free, GMO-free, gluten-free, and Vegan. I tested this out as a lip balm and to moisturize my skin. It has a gel like formula that smells like cotton candy and really does moisturize with ease. Due to the immense amount of claims, I would need a larger sample size to fully attest to it's claims. I would consider purchasing the full size of this product.
|Formula X The Colors Nail Polish in shade "Wingwoman"
Full Size Price: $10.50
Sample size value is approximately: $4.20
I enjoy nail polish samples and am a fan of Formula X polishes already so I couldn't wait to give this color a try. This is a beautiful red shade that carries a formula that is rich and smooth, it provided an opaque color in just two coats. It is enriched with ShineXcel, a luminescent ingredient that makes the red color pop. It contains no parabens, sulfates, or phthalates. I really enjoyed the pigmentation of the formula and how well it lasted without any chipping. I would purchase the full size of this product, as well as other shades from this brand.
|Urban Decay Eyeshadow in shade "Fireball"
Full Size Price: $19.00
Sample size value is approximately: $10.79
I am a big fan of Urban Decay products and their eyeshadows are always some of my favorite to use. This eyeshadow is a peachy-gold shimmer shade that transitions to pink tones. I love the layered coloring it provides and how smooth the formula is to use. It carries a high pigmentation and reminds me a lot of the MAC eyeshadow "Expensive Pink". It truly feels like velvet and glides on softly, lasting all day with no creasing. I really felt this color worked well with both my skin tone and eye color. I would purchase the full size of this product as well as other shades from this line.
My June Glam Bag is valued at $32.80*.
I pay $10.00 a month, so I received an additional value of $22.80 this month.
Overall, I found this month's bag to be well balanced and the sample sizes offered were decent sizes. I found that the products matched my overall preference quite well. My favorite product from this month's bag was the Hey Honey moisturizer.

"If they start leasing public assets, every city, every county and every state and the federal government, you would not have to raise any taxes whatsoever. We'd have more infrastructure money that way than any other way in the nation. But again, that is thinking outside the box," said Mayor Daley.
Daley also reminded Chicagoans to take advantage of eligible tax credits, especially for low-income families. Daley said it's estimated many people fail to file for the $8 billion that is available. Call 311 for information.
Daley did say his time in Washington was emotional.
"It's truly a celebration and brought out the best of America, that's what President Obama talked about. We can bring out the best. We know we have problems. We can bring out the best, and I think that's what the inauguration did, to look out on to the mall and see millions and millions of people celebrating, happy, friendly. That was really.. I don't care who you were, you got chills that day. And you were very -- everybody was very emotional that day to see that," said Daley.
After the inauguration, Daley attended a intimate party at the White House from midnight to 2:30 a.m. He said you don't repeat what you discuss with the president at a private party.

Although plenty of folks simply load a single font file renamed as both DroidSans and DroidSans-Bold, I noticed that doing so basically disables the bold functionality on the phone, so I prefer loading both the regular and bold versions so that text will format appropriately, especially where the contrast is intended for emphasis.
One thing I didn't like though. Both fonts are marked as Regular and they're in conflict when imported into Mac OS X. One has to be shut down. Could you mark the bold one as bold?
As you can see here at the screenshot, the bold one is also reporting to the system as the Regular.

Comments--What Every Blogger Wants
Our blog doesn't get that many comments. Sure some times we have a post or two that prompts a few but overall we just don't get that many. And I'm o.k. with that.
When we started this blog, my motivation was to get the creative juices flowing, learn about a new medium, and keep an online scrapbook of my family's various antics.
Of course, every blogger likes loves to see that their post resonated with someone so much so that they responded but I'm happy just to hear from friends that they read a recent post and that it made them chuckle, smile or nod their head in agreement.
But I must admit that it is so exciting to see a New Comment notification in my email in box--that is until I realize the comment is from a florist who is responding to my Mother's Day Post only to advertise their own services. Or that the comment is written in Chinese and once translated it is a porn site trying to promote their "services"---YUCK! I'm sure there is some blogger term for these "false comments" --what it is I don't know.
But the real comments, the ones where someone provides encouragement, sympathy, understanding (or even disagreement) or their own related story--give me a real high. Those few words create a connection-even if short lived. I love the fact that our lives can intertwine whether we know each other or not.
And no, this is not a shameless plug for comments. It's just a post to say that your comments are appreciated and welcomed- in real time or in the blogosphere.
3 comments:
This is such an honest post. As a reader (stalker of your blog), I wonder why I don't comment more regularly. Hmmm.....In a lot of ways, your blog is such a wonderful insight into your lives and thoughts. It's good to just read and absorb the information--like food for thoughts. Are blogs venues for comments/discussions?ReplyDelete
Thanks for the comment! I think a lot of people are lurkers. I'm one too. I don't expect a lot of discussion through our blog, it's really more like we are throwing mud at the wall and hoping some of it will stick.ReplyDelete
It's like checking to see if there are any messages on the answering machine or if someone responded to your Facebook status. We crave that acknowledgement and interaction, even if it's only in cyberspace.ReplyDelete
Please leave your comment here. We request word verification to prevent the spammers out there. Thanks a lot!

Urbandale working to fix Postal Service's address confusion
Urbandale working to fix Postal Service's address confusion
URBANDALE, Iowa —
Urbandale officials say they're trying to straighten out the confusion over who lives where, according to their ZIP codes.
The Des Moines Register reports that most Urbandale addresses fall into either 50322 or 50323 ZIP codes.
But some north Urbandale addresses near the city boundaries with Johnston and Grimes have those cities' ZIPs: 50131 and 50111.
Those businesses and residents -- located inside Urbandale city limits -- have been using Johnston or Grimes street addresses, lest their mail comes late or not at all.
The city solution?
Urbandale officials say they'll ask the U.S. Postal Service to let Urbandale be listed as an "acceptable city" for mailing addresses in the 50131 and 50111 ZIP codes.

I've seen a lot of clever snow sculptures, but nothing quite like this creation by Schaffer Art Studio. From the carefully crafted logs to the bright yellow and orange flames, it looks like a real campfire. To get the color just right, the artist used food coloring mixed with water – but how he managed to make such a perfect marshmallow is beyond me. To see more snow art by Schaffer Art Studio, visit them on Facebook.
He looks so proud – and he should. This is awesome.
Lots of friends came to help build the snow sculpture.
The colors are so brilliant, it's hard to believe they were made by simply combining food coloring and water in a spray bottle.
Now, it's time for roasting.

Our Invisalign Services In Toronto
Are you looking for a way to straighten your teeth without displaying your orthodontic appliances each time you smile? Belman Dental Centre, located in Mid-town Toronto, has a great solution for you. Invisalign invisible braces employ a sequence of revolutionary custom aligners that gradually shift your teeth into their optimal location. Unlike traditional braces, Invisalign aligners are fully removable.
Invisalign relies on a series of aligners that slowly shift your teeth into predetermined locations, one aligner at a time. Each aligner in the series is efficiently customized to your unique specifications in order to ensure you achieve the smile you've always wanted. Each aligner has to be worn for a minimum period of two weeks before moving onto the next in the series. Depending on your case, treatment can last anywhere from 9 months to over 1 year. You will also need to visit your dentist every 6 weeks to make sure your treatment is progressing in accordance with your treatment plan.
Invisalign Invisible braces are completely removable and can be taken out while you eat, brush or floss, which can save you a lot of the hassle associated with cemented traditional metal braces. Further, Invisalign aligners are practically invisible so no one will know you're wearing them at first glance – not even your friends. You can feel confident in smiling while knowing your teeth are becoming straighter by the day.
Costs will vary from patient to patient, as treatment plans are specifically designed for each individual's needs. Your teeth's condition, how long your treatment is, and your specific goals will affect how much the orthodontic treatment will cost. Visiting our office for a consultation will bring you one step closer to living your life with a healthy, beautiful smile – it's definitely worth the investment.
It should be noted that orthodontic treatments may be covered under some dental insurance plans so please contact us or your insurance provider to see if they cover your treatment.
Belman Dental Centre offers flexible payment options to make your orthodontic treatment as affordable and easy as possible.
Contact our Midtown Toronto dental office, located at Yonge and Davisville in Toronto, to set up a consultation. Your brand new smile is only a call away.

So here we are, writing, thinking, feeling some kind of way. Who'd a thunk it, that some twenty plus years later I would be where I am today. Though I have a lot to be thankful for; like my husband of now forty years, my five children still speaking to me and each other. Them still coming over bringing with them my 13 grand babies for barbecues and to hang out and be around me and their dad.
My going back to school and getting my bachelors then on to get my coaching certification and starting my own non profit all while the wounds are still there and evident but not raw and bleeding from my life before.
You see when it was all over and the fog finally started to clear, I really saw no hope or reason to continue, didn't think my life would have meaning or a reason to persue. I was disintegrated, marginalized, wiped out and made into a zero.
I had to conform and fit into the collective not be my own person or have my own perspective, oh but life after.
There is hope, there is a pot of gold on the other side of the rainbow, but you just have to hold on and not give up; for right before your eyes, right in your sphere, is someone that has passed through your fog to the other side of the cloud; waiting and willing to help pull you through to your, life after.

What Is a Short Sale Negotiator?
Question: What is a Short Sale Negotiator?
A reader asks: "My husband says we need to hire a short sale negotiator, but he doesn't like real estate agents. Says they are all out to get you. A friend of ours referred us to an agent who seems to do a lot of short sales, but my husband does not like her. He thinks she is dishonest. But he thinks all agents are dishonest. She seems capable, smart and honest to me. She comes recommended to us from a friend who used her to negotiate his short sale. I want to get our short sale approved, but I am worried my husband's attitude is holding us back. How can we hire a short sale negotiator who will pass my husband's test?"
Answer: The sad answer is your husband is unlikely to approve of any short sale negotiator you hire, perhaps because your husband seems to have developed a built-in prejudice. Part of it is most likely based on ignorance, but part is probably bathed in truth.
Some agents are, as he puts it, out to get you. But you generally don't find these types of agents in the short sale business much less operating as a short sale negotiator. Surprisingly, not all short sale negotiators are equal. Moreover, not all short sale negotiators are real estate agents.
What Is a Short Sale Negotiator?
The term short sale negotiator is sometimes a misnomer. That's because many so-called short sale negotiators do not negotiate. They don't fight for the seller. They present paperwork and accept paperwork back. They are not problem solvers. A short sale negotiator is a problem solver, a person who works on behalf of the seller to reach a short sale settlement with the bank.
A short sale negotiator represents the seller, not the bank. Part of the problem associated with short sale negotiators is often the individuals who hire the negotiator are not sure whether the negotiator represents them or represents the bank. At no time is the negotiator ever a representative of the bank unless the seller has no short sale negotiator.
Sometimes, sellers are under the impression that they do not need a short sale negotiator. They think they can negotiate the short sale directly with the bank because the bank will help them to negotiate it. That kind of thinking is like asking the fox to help one guard the hen house. The bank is not on the seller's side. In fact, quite the opposite.
The bank's objective is to maximize return at whomever's expense as long as it's not its own. It could be at the seller's expense or the buyer's expense, but the entity the bank is protecting is itself. A short sale negotiator should have the seller's best interests at heart at all times. An ethical short sale negotiator would never sell the seller down the river to make a fast buck.
It is the negotiator's job to persuade the bank to allow the short sale to happen, and to minimize the expense and headache to the seller. The best outcome is a total release of liability for the seller with no out-of-pocket expense for the seller.
Types of Short Sale Negotiators
The best short sale negotiator is the individual who directly represents the seller. This person may or may not be paid an upfront fee. In California, for example, a person cannot negotiate a short sale unless that person is a lawyer or licensed to sell real estate. But that doesn't stop crooks from representing themselves as a short sale negotiator.
- Real estate agents who are short sale negotiators. You will find some agents who negotiate short sales but do not call themselves a short sale negotiator. They don't use the term because they are afraid they will get sued for practicing law. There is a fine line between practicing law and negotiating a short sale, so, we short sale agents tread carefully.A reputable short sale negotiator who is a licensed real estate agent will always advise the client to obtain legal and tax advice. The negotiator will keep the client apprised of the short sale process and never make decisions without consulting the client. For example, I routinely handle my own negotiations because I don't trust anybody else to do it exactly the same way I would do it. But that kind of thinking limits the numbers of clients I can help.
- Short sale negotiators who are lawyers. The problem with some lawyers who handle short sale negotiations is in order to do a volume of business, sometimes lawyers must hand over the day-to-day processing to law clerks or paralegals. These people are paper pushers. Which is fine unless that person does not have a real estate background or is uncomfortable trying to explain real estate documents yet must negotiate with banks.Before hiring a lawyer to negotiate your short sale, ask the lawyer if he or she will personally negotiate the short sale or if the negotiation is handed primarily handed to an employee. Generally, a lawyer will charge an up-front fee for short sale negotiation.
- Short sale negotiators who are third parties. What is a third party negotiator? It is a person who does not represent the seller. This third-party negotiator could be another agent at the agent's company or it could be a person who is not licensed. The first thing to find out is whether the third-party negotiator has a real estate license.Personally, I believe the more removed a person is from the transaction, the less likely that person will be successful. The reason is third-party negotiators generally do not know the seller, have never spoken to the seller and are not as capable as a negotiator who does know the seller. Some third-party negotiators will try to charge the buyer for negotiation. Buyers should not have to pay a third-party negotiation fee.
TIP: Every so often in my practice I run across a client who successfully hides prejudice. If I find out that a client does not trust me for some unjustified reason -- and there is no justifiable reason -- I drop representation. Without trust, there is no fiduciary relationship. Without a fiduciary relationship, I would have no basis for representation. Agents should not work for clients who do not trust them and, likewise, clients should not hire agents they do not trust.

"Content mills" is what Steve Russell calls one style of today's magazines, and I winced at the thought. It's true, though. This ex-New York staffer of Playboy and Maxim knows that magazines today have limited options for surviving the blustery winds of the digital climate. The most obvious is to hack content, hack it down to shorter attention spans, to bits of clickbait on glossy paper, or listicals, and pay a lot less to the freelancers who will crank it out – the "hacks" in the older sense of the word. More and more is done by staffers too.
Steve, who spoke to our magazine lab Wednesday afternoon, now publishes Edible Blue Ridge – a free quarterly with less flesh than his previous titles. (The world labelled Maxim as a men's magazine full of hot babes, but the people who ran it thought of it as a humor magazine, Steve says.) Natalie was copy editing Maxim when they met, then was with the founding staff of "O," then at Martha Stewart Living. (We'll be visiting both of these places in New York soon.) Steve and his wife edit Edible Blue Ridge out of their Charlottesville home.
"Edible" is a national franchise of foodie magazines all using a similar format and business model in about 30 locations, but each one with local content, a local name and local advertising. It's another model for a magazine today. Every three months, Steve takes about a week in a rented Subaru to deliver the magazine around the Commonwealth to trusted locations, not newsstands. It's an attractive publication, with rich color photography on good uncoated stock and with the high-quality writing and editing skills the couple brought to Virginia from about seven years in New York.
Steve also freelances for high-end magazines like Garden & Gun, but the freelance market is drying up, he says. He used to get $2 a word, which for a 1,500-word piece was not bad. Now? "I can't get them above $1 a word."
As for the content mills, the pay is lower. A lot lower.

Young people make mistakes, and it is extremely important to make sure that these mistakes do not ruin their futures. In addition to attempting to reduce and dismiss charges, we will fight aggressively to keep your child out of detention. We will do everything possible to ensure the case is kept in juvenile court and that your child is not thrown unfairly into adult court. At Hartwig Law LLC, we will strongly defend your child's rights and ensure that he or she gets the best possible defense and outcome.
What Are Other Reasons to Choose Our Juvenile Defense Lawyer?
When a juvenile is convicted of a crime, we understand that not only does the entire family suffer, but the child's future is also severely jeopardized. Our Youngstown juvenile criminal attorney will personally handle every aspect of the case to do whatever it takes to ensure that your son and daughter can quickly move forward with a clean record.
Don't wait to act. Call (330) 899-4446 to discuss your options in a FREE consultation.
Although most juvenile crimes are similar to those for adult offenders, the penalties and laws associated with juvenile offenses are substantially different. Two of the most significant differences are that juveniles are not entitled to a trial by jury, nor are they allowed to be released on bail.
In many juvenile cases, we have a strong chance of getting your child rehabilitation instead of placement in a local or state detention facility.
It is not unusual for disposition (sentencing) to also include counseling and community service. However, it can result in detention in a youth facility for up to the age of 21 and an inability to seal their record upon reaching 18 years of age. Because of these possibilities, as well as the special laws involved with juvenile offenses, it is absolutely essential to have a criminal attorney there to protect your child's rights and attempt to get the charges dropped or reduced.
We can defend minors against any and all felonies and misdemeanors, including:
Call (330) 899-4446 or email us now to discover your defense options in a FREE case review!
If your child has been accused but not yet charged, we may be able to prevent formal charges. If your son or daughter faces juvenile delinquency charges, our Youngstown lawyer has successfully handled many juvenile cases and knows how to cut through the weaknesses in the prosecutor's case. We are ready to fight for your child's freedom and future.

A delegation of the United States Agency for International Development (USAID) visited the Karachi Water and Sewerage Board (KWSB) head office on Wednesday, to discuss measures for greater energy efficiency.
The delegation, headed by USAID Energy Efficiency and Capacity Program Deputy Mission Director Leon Waskin and Arif Pervaiz, met with KWSB Managing Director Misbahuddin Farid, Planning deputy managing director, S-III project director, chief engineer and other concerned officials.
Farid lauded the USAID's efforts to bring the American and Pakistani nations closer and help improve Pakistan.
Highlighting the development projects undertaken by the agency, he said that the American people have always given importance to development in Karachi, citing the upgrade of around 100 motor pumps, completed at cost of approximately Rs 100 million, as a prime example.
"That project, initiated under the USAID Energy Efficiency and Capacity Program, helped increase water supply throughout Karachi, while also booting energy efficiency of our pumping stations," said Farid.
The KWSB chief briefed the delegation over the unfortunate plight of the Dhabeji Pumping Station, stating that the pump, established in 1959, has always been upgraded in steps. "An immediate Energy Efficiency Audit of the Dhabeji station is vital. Most of the pumps are too old and have outlived their economic life. There is a serious lack of maintenance as well, owing to low budgets and unavailability of parts," said Farid.
USAID Deputy Mission Director Waskin, acknowledging the difficulties faced by the KWSB and the dire need for an increased maintenance budget, agreed in principle for the conduction of an efficiency audit of the Dhabeji pump.
Praising the KWSB's working system and the efforts of its employees, Waskin said, "The USAID program is aimed at assisting important institutions, such as the KWSB, in improving their efficiency and quality of services. We are willing to make all possible efforts to ensure that these institutions can better serve Pakistan and its people."

Flock of Triangles Quilt
I'm getting a little deeper into the quilt process. I've spent a few evenings (well, for what little time I can handle in my sweltering, AC-free, craft room) cutting out squares and triangles for my quilt. I keep reminding myself that the extra care I put into making the pieces perfect will pay off later.
After cutting, I started a little excel chart indicating placement of all the triangles.
Then, assigned each fabric a number.
FINALLY, I can start sewing!!
Hip, Bad Ass Dress
I also got some fabric for this dress, too. I've been following Vogue 8280 (thanks again for the tip, Veronique!) loosely and felt like the dress was gonna be my greatest sewing project to date until I reached the sleeves (okay, I won't lie. Those flanges were a real bitch, too). Anyway, I made some minor tweaks to the sleeves (maybe they could be consider major - I did fully eliminate a pattern piece), and somehow the dress resembles more of a Colonial Williamsburg costume than my hip, coolest dress ever.
Hi, I like poufy sleeves. Civil War Reenactments this way.
Rest assured, there will be plenty more tweaking in the sleeve dept. Moving on - what do you think about the fabric? Too risky? I'm a fashion risk taker (or so I flatter myself), but something that elicits pointing and snickering is a different story. I just couldn't pass up the sparrow fabric.
And to keep consistent wtih the blog's title, here's a little knitting for you... Cherry!
I'm up to the armpits on this one and it's flying by. When it actually gets pulled out, that is.
Pretty tubular caston
If you're still reading this, hope everyone is enjoying these last few weeks of summer. I know in CT night's coming earlier and it's dark when I wake up for my morning run.

Why BBW Website Design?
In order to provide our clients a new innovative website, in order to the not only a stylish appearance but functionality and easy to use features, we must gather all the creative torrents we can channel. For this we draw on our many years of experience and the passion we have for developing new ideas on the web, all to be used to lift up our clients in their marketplace. Our creativity derives from as many places as we have looked over the years. Always searching for fresh ideas and ways to implement them. Often, time and money does not allow us free reign over these pursuits. Rather we are constrained by them. A balance is often required to deliver a creative solution while keeping within the constraints of budget. Often this attribute requires creativity in and of itself. In every case, however, we bring every project we have ever performed to bear on our creativity for the next. Perhaps it will be yours.
Ability usually comes from acquired skill and discipline. Skill from regimented practice. Many times at the task, over and over. If this were all it took, we would be quite accomplished with practice alone. But a great website presence requires more than hundreds of websites built. Along with experience and creativity, it requires specialized knowledge and a passion for the task. Knowing where and how to assemble your resources is a skill that requires all these attributes. Wisdom about an industry always come at a cost. Which is usually borne by the one who acquires it. Fortunately for our customers, with BigBangWebs you have a friend on the web to represent your needs. A long-term partner to prevent you having a negative and costly experience, but rather someone to share in carrying out your plans and goals.

As you consider whether or not a service company is worthy of your continued patronage, you must consider their track record.

Do they return your calls and emails with interest and dedication? Do they deliver the result and service expected and paid for? When you consider reliability, it is our constant effort and hope you will think of BigBangWebs.

99% of new businesses fail. We, creators of this course, think that the main reason is a bunch of myths around the startup scene. Those myths give you wrong expectations and crippled instruments.
The main goal of this course is to increase the success rate of startups. We don't do it, cause we are nice pals. Our business models are based on the success rates of startups. We really hope you will use and share the knowledge you have got here.
Startup crash course offers real knowledge of how to start a company and push it to success. It will have three main parts: the structured approach, real-time experimentation and feedback.
The structured approach is given through lectures and case studies, which serve as a compass. Real-time experiment consists of individual and group work that makes you try all the new concepts
and implement them to your business idea. Feedback comes from interaction with successful entrepreneurs and startup scene players.
Those who develop a high quality business model may be put in contact with Berlin startup supporters.
This course is for anyone who:
- has a startup idea and doesn't know how to start;
- runs a business and wants to increase the outcome;
- wants to become an entrepreneur, but is still guessing whether it is the right way to go.
