Are companies ready to trust DHS database?
DHS is trying to convince private companies that any information submitted to the National Asset Database will be protected. It remains to be seen if the agency is succeeding.
The Department of Homeland Security has quieted some but not all the concerns that have kept many U.S. companies from voluntarily submitting critical infrastructure information (CII) to the agency.
The DHS badly needs private sector input in order to increase the utility of its National Asset Database (NADB), the registry of nearly 80,000 facilities and assets in the U.S. which could be targeted by terrorists.
The DHS issued a final rule on Sept. 1 on how it plans to protect CII it validates as protected CII (PCII). Four days later, Robert Stephan, assistant secretary for infrastructure protection, briefed representatives of select companies at an invitation-only meeting at the U.S. Chamber of Commerce. Andrew Howell, vice president of homeland security for the chamber, said the final rule corrects many of the problems his members had with the interim rule, which was published in February 2004.
He added that the DHS now faces the imperatives of educating the business community about the new rules, educating local and state enforcement agencies who will be receiving the information and will have to protect it, and coming up with a means of protecting the CII companies transfer to the DHS at the time of an emergency, information which hadn't previously been offered.
The DHS is well aware of the educational imperatives. A top official within the Preparedness Directorate, who asked not to be identified, said the infrastructure office, which has responsibility for the NADB, will now go out and "proselytize."
The NADB sorely lacks private sector input. Last June, DHS Inspector General Richard Skinner issued a report which said the NADB contains too many questionable assets and is "not an accurate representation of the nation's CI/KR [critical infrastructure/key resources]." He also said the data on each asset, up until now submitted by state and local governments, was insufficient to "support the management and resource allocation decision-making envisioned by the National Infrastructure Protection Plan."
A major NADB shortcoming, Skinner said, is the result of the "reluctance of the private sector to share proprietary information due to privacy concerns." The DHS final rule is meant to address these concerns, voiced by financial service, chemical, natural resources and telecommunications industry trade groups.
Spokesmen for some industries, particularly those who have already been providing CII to the DHS, praised the final rule. Jamie Conrad Jr., assistant general counsel at the American Chemistry Council (ACC), said a number of the changes in the final rule satisfied his group. Chemical companies have been exchanging information with DHS as part of the agency's Comprehensive Review program, where DHS field officials visit chemical and petroleum facilities and other locations.
The final rule reverses the stance in the interim rule on indirect submissions of CII, submitted through other federal agencies or to DHS officials outside the PCII program office, which is home to the NADB. The rule also clarifies that if submitted CII is not validated by DHS as protected, the agency will return or destroy the information, as the submitter requests. The ACC's Conrad said the final rule assuages his concerns on those issues.
It is not clear, though, whether industries such as telecommunications and financial services, which have stayed away from the NADB, will now start freely submitting data. For example, the U.S. Telecom Association had complained that the provisions of the interim rule were "so vague that it is impossible to discern exactly how DHS will safeguard information."

Effective ways to soundproof the floor in the apartment
In any apartment building even if itBuilt with the latest technologies, design elements floor, coming into contact with floors, walls, water and heating pipes, become agents of sounds and noises of steps, move furniture, falling objects. Any room apartment, whether it's a bedroom, children's, home theater, living room or kitchen, should be kept private for the owners and not to create discomfort to neighbors and reliable insulation in the floor it is one of the main conditions of comfort. To this end, among all structural elements of the house and the floor lay a layer of sound-absorbing material that dampens noise and prevent their spread.
- Materials for floor insulation
- floor soundproofing methods
- Floating concrete coatings
- Dry screed - sound insulation floor
- Prefabricated floors - noise reduction option
Materials for floor insulation
The construction market offers a variety ofnatural and synthetic materials that give good sound insulation floor and improves the acoustic characteristics of the room. Additional sound-absorbing materials based on natural fibers are the most popular:
- kaolin and basalt wool;
- stone wool based on a variety of rocks;
- fireclay;
- expanded perlite;
- foamed glass.
Also excellent sound insulation properties, all kinds of mineral wool building endowed and other important properties in the building:
- fire;
- vapor permeability;
- hydrophobicity;
- environmental Safety;
- durability.
A disadvantage of mineral wool thickness isplates of 25 mm from it, and so in cases where roads every centimeter of height of the room, or for other technical reasons, a good floor insulation in an apartment provided with such roll of synthetic materials, such as:
- penopoliestr;
- polyurethane;
- foam.
The structure is sound-absorbing materials are:
- porous;
- perforated;
- membrane.
By porous group includes the most popularfoamed glass, concrete, fiberboard, all kinds of construction wool. Floor construction for sound insulation materials must be selected with a porosity of 80% and a pore diameter of not more than 1 mm.
By membrane include materials in whichreduction in sound intensity is achieved due to the energy required to overcome the forced oscillations. This plywood sheets, thick thick cardboard, sound-proof fabric.
The perforated materials prevent the spread of the sound-filled cavities and holes with air. These are sheets of perforated gypsum, asbestos and so on. D.
floor soundproofing methods
The most modern, efficient, environmentally friendly and easy-to-use way to reduce noise in apartments and private homes is the construction of "floating floor".
It got its name because the floorThis type of construction consists of several layers and no element of it is not in contact with the surfaces flush intermediate floor and walls, and therefore do not apply to them and do not take from them the sound waves. There are three types of "floating floor":
- floating concrete cover;
- floating dry screed;
- prefabricated floating flooring.
Floating concrete coatings
This method is ideal for cases where,except sound-absorbing properties that require high strength and high thermal insulation properties of the base and the high thermal conductivity of the finish flooring, such as the regeneration of "warm floor".
When placing a floating concrete floor, concreteoverlap veiled vlagonepronizaemoy layer thick film, which is placed under the floor insulation screed, often mineral wool. It is important that the layer of soundproofing material laid not only on the concrete slab, but also the space contour, paving walls along an edge strip thereof. Thus, the concrete screed like floats or float independently of the foundation and walls. The width of the edge tape should be greater than the final height of the floor structure, and after the completion of the excess is cut with a sharp knife.
On top of the insulating layer is placed a reinforcing metal net, and put beacons on them poured concrete screed.
Council: Due to the rapid setting concrete mix it is prepared in small portions and immediately pour, but in the same room you must tie in one day. The two or more doses over several days can be filled with a coupler indoor floor height differences, with individual fragments between expansion joints ties leave a minimum width of 10 mm.
If on the surface of the base there is a bias and other flaws, it is equated with a layer of fine sand or expanded clay. To the floor is not subsided over time, up to a maximum tamped filling density.
Finishing the floor covering can be laidOnly after the complete solidification of ties, ie 4-5 weeks. The design of the floating concrete field greatly increases the load on the overlap, the thickness reduces the height of the room, and is therefore not always possible or practical.
Dry screed - sound insulation floor
Dry screed - it is an effective, fast and easyby way of creating a "floating floor" and enhance its noise-reducing properties. Before you make a noise insulation polapo this technology, it is necessary to choose a sound-absorbing material. The highest index of noise level reduction of impacts have mineral wool slabs: at a thickness of 20 mm was quenched with 46.5 dB.
On the concrete base and vapor barrier is laidmineral fiber material, and on top of the filling, hard-packed layer and align it with the beacons. Along the perimeter of the room along the walls fastened skirting tape of the sound insulation material thickness of 20 mm and a height exceeding the thickness of the final floor structure of the future. Surpluses are cut with a sharp knife after use.
Backfill is placed over the layer in two layersgipsovolokonnyh plate, making sure that the gap between the wall and the stove was not less than 10 mm. Plates of the second layer stacked with a shift relative to the first, so that their butt joints do not coincide. Gipsovolokonnyh layers glued together with white glue, and then fasten with screws. screw length should match the thickness of the two layers of the coating, so that it did not go beyond it.
This variant of floor construction insulationIt is very popular, because the installation is performed without the use of concrete and "wet" stage, all the elements of "layer cake" involved in sound absorption, and to lay finishing flooring can be immediately after laying the last gipsovolokonnyh sheet. The thickness of the floor structure on a dry screed does not exceed 30-40 mm and almost does not reduce the height of the room.
Prefabricated floors - noise reduction option
For this kind of "floating floor" include laminate flooring, solid wood decking and other similar coating, equipped with a locking system "thorn-groove".
In carefully prepared perfectly smoothfirst base floor insulation is placed under the laminate or parquet, and then cover it mounted panel with a gap from the wall at least 10 mm. As used soundproofing flexible foam with a closed cell system uniform, polystyrene or cellulose sheets, but they provide minimal sound absorption effect and more play a role of the substrate.
To enhance noise insulation characteristicslaminated or wooden floating floor in the polymer layer is placed a cork backing or special soundproof membrane Teksaund on it lay a layer of plywood, and only then assembled floor finish. The thickness of the sound-insulating layer in such systems is less than 2.5 mm, which does not affect the height of the room.
Important: Regardless of the method of sound insulation floor structure, plinths be fastened only to one surface of either the wall or the floor, or after putting it in a gap between it and the wall or cork rubber pad. Nails at the same time is not recommended, as the metal is also a conductor of sound.
We hope you have verified that the floor insulationtheir own hands - a task feasible for everyone who has the basic skills of construction work. You just need to be patient and to choose the optimal method and the corresponding sound-absorbing material, and completing the work, enjoy the peace and quiet in the apartment.

Eye in the Sky: Veteran Rick Carelli helps Erik Jones grab 1st Cup win
Throughout the 2018 season Motorsport.com will spotlight the winning spotter from various Monster Energy NASCAR Cup, Xfinity and Camping World Truck series races.
This week, Motorsport.com caught up with former racer and veteran spotter Rick Carelli. Known for his success in the early years of the NASCAR Camping World Truck Series, the Avada, Colo., native was in Daytona guiding Erik Jones to his first Cup Series win at Daytona International Speedway nearly two weeks ago.
Carelli made nearly 300 starts in various NASCAR series throughout his career highlighted by 134 starts in the Truck series winning four times and finishing a career-best sixth in the championship standings in 1995.
How did it come about for you to spot with Jones when he moved up to the Cup Series nearly two years ago?
I used to spot for Kurt Busch when he was at Furniture Row and went with him to Stewart-Haas when he moved there. I knew Joe (Garone) from when I worked there before and when Erik drove for the team last year some people came to me asking if I would like to spot for him.
What made you decide to go with Jones?
After watching Erik I knew he was a driver with a lot of raw talent that just had to harness that talent. Chris Gayle, his crew chief at Furniture Row and now at Joe Gibbs Racing, also talked to me about the job. Everyone there makes me feel like I'm part of the team and not just a set of eyes in the spotter's stand. I really appreciate that a lot.
What was it like to score your first win with Jones at Daytona?
It was really special to be there when Erik won his first Cup race. He's been through a lot off the track and to get your first win in always special. As I said, Jones has a lot of raw talent and once he learns how to harness it and get more experience I feel he'll win a lot of races in his career.
How rewarding is it to work with Jones?
Obviously getting to Victory Lane with Erik was special and very rewarding. As a former driver I've enjoyed watching him progress as a driver on the track in the Cup Series the past year and a half. A good example of how far he has come is last year we struggled at Sonoma and when we went to Watkins Glen, even though they are two different courses, you could see him working hard to get better. To see his progression this year was rewarding and fun to watch someone grow right in front of your eyes.
What's the most challenging aspect about your job?
I just want to always be sure I don't make a mistake.You have to be on top of everything and keep your focus sharp - even on long days at the track. A spotter to me is like a tool in the tool box and I don't want to be 'that guy' that costs us a chance at success. You have to constantly pay attention and be ready (on the roof).
How do you try and help your driver during the race to help keep them calm when they need it?
Sometimes we just talk and point out the obvious and sometimes you just have to reset because the more you get frustrated trying to fix something, the worse it gets. I try to think back and talk him through situations. I also watch other drivers' lines and see if there is something we can try that will help us at that time.
Do you feel being a former driver helps you as a spotter?
I feel I do at times, but also the sport has really changed since I last drove in competition. I had a bit of success at Phoenix and when Erik first started racing there he would go all out all of the time and I was able to walk him through some things that I felt helped him get better there. That was one situation where I felt like my experience as a driver helped him out.
Do you spot for anyone else?
I also spot the No. 18 car in the Xfinity Series for Joe Gibbs Racing no matter who drives the car. This is challenging and rewarding at the same time. I've spotted for veteran drivers like Kyle Busch who doesn't need a whole of help to rookie and young drivers like Ryan Preece and Riley Herbst.
Do you miss driving?
I must say I still get goosebumps when the national anthem is being performed. In my mind I still feel like I can compete and the competitiveness is still with me at times. The sport has changed a bunch, but I'm with a great group of people who make me feel appreciated and a part of the team and that is good for me.

One incredibly amazing thing about AAMA is that it is run entirely on a volunteer basis. And like all volunteer-run organisations, the key to the success is having a band of enthusiastic people volunteer their time and expertise to help out in any way possible. The AGM of the AAMA was held on Saturday 6th May and the executive positions were filled as follows:
- President: Lyndon Kurth
- Vice President: Alan Burnett
- Treasurer: Dan Muggeridge
- Assistant Treasurer: Peter Handley
- Secretary: Shona McKenzie
- Assistant Secretary: Gabrielle Ingram
We have an incredibly busy year ahead of us this year, and as such, the sharing of a range of duties is required. At the general meeting held on Saturday afternoon, a range of duties were confirmed and include managing the administration of the tournaments, website and Facebook communications, organising of events including the children's end-of-year celebration, Black Belt Dinner and adults end-of-year celebration, responding to phone and email enquiries, maintenance of member email lists, clothing and stock management including coordinating orders for same, managing graduations processing, fundraising, grants writing and of course, the very fancy role of hachi maki maker (say that 10 times in a row as fast as you can!). It was exhausting just writing out the list of things that need to be done, and yet they all appear to the casual onlooker to just happen!
We welcome some fresh faces to the committee this year, but of course, you do not need to be formally part the committee to help out. For example, if you have a special skill in persuasive writing we are always in need to someone to write grant applications.
The AAMA community also collectively thank Sempai Lyndon for his role over the last year as President. It has been a challenging and busy year, and he has done a fantastic job keeping everything ticking along whilst balancing this with his other community-related commitments.

Some time this spring the U.S. Supreme Court will most likely hand down a decision in the case of Janus v. American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees (AFSCME). The facts and background are briefly this: Although under federal law no one can be forced to join a union, someone who works in a union or agency shop, a workplace in which a majority of employees have voted to unionize, can be compelled to pay his share of the costs of the union's collective bargaining efforts on behalf of workers, since all employees benefit from the union's activity in this respect, but not the amount the union spends on behalf of its political activity. Mark Janus is a public employee in the state of Illinois and is employed in an agency shop. He objects to having to pay his share of the union's representation fees. The arguments made on his behalf are familiar to anyone acquainted with American political rhetoric. Janus's freedom is being abridged, so it is said, he is the victim of coercion. And so on.
Now some of the discussion about the case focuses on the fact that AFSCME is a public employee union. And it is true that the status of public employees is different from employees in the private sector. Historically, public employee unions have not been as necessary as unions in the private sector. In some instances, with the federal government, for example, the employing agency does not have the power to collectively bargain with a union over much that is substantive, such as wages, since for the most part those are standardized across the federal government as a whole. And it must be admitted that frequently, though not always, public agencies have treated their employees better than private employers have, who historically have been guilty of horrible abuses with regard to wages or working conditions. But this is not to say that public employee unions are not necessary, especially at the local level, and even in the federal government they can intervene to prevent unfair or arbitrary treatment by a supervisor.
Why do I speak in my title of anti-union hypocrisy? Some of those arguing on behalf of Mr. Janus are claiming that they are against agency shops only for public sector unions. Thus at nationalreview.com, David Harsanyi entitled his pro-Janus article, "Public-Sector Unions Deserve to be Destroyed." But anyone who reads his article will see that much of Harsanyi's argument applies equally to private-sector unions. He speaks of the coercion involved in compelling someone to either join a union or contribute to its collective bargaining costs. And he suggests that even if unions raise wages, that's because they raise everyone's wages.
Even if we concede that collective bargaining negotiations might raise the average salary of teachers, it may very well depress [a particular teacher's] salary. It is just as easy to argue that collective bargaining hurts the good teacher.
What Harsanyi means here is that while unions might raise every teacher's salary, the good, the mediocre, the poor, an exceptionally talented teacher might be able to raise his own salary more without a union than he would achieve under a generalized salary increase for all teachers obtained by the union. This is a classic appeal to individual self-interest, to looking out for number one, to a disregard for one's colleagues and fellows, even of pitting workers against each other. Harsanyi and those who make similar arguments know well that this appeal to individualism is merely a smokescreen, a means of keeping economic power in the hands of employers and owners. Moreover and most importantly, such an attack on worker solidarity, a classic case of the divide and conquer strategy, applies equally to all cases of unionization, private or public. In short, this case is nothing but an all-out attack on unions, disguised as an attack on public-sector unions.
Outside public employment the percentage of unionized workers is only about 6.5%. There are many reasons for this, including the decline of industrial jobs, employer threats and coercion, high turnover among retail workers, the general anti-union attitude which has infected even blue-collar workers, and, it must be admitted, less than stellar conduct by some unions at some times. But in the public sector about 34% of employees are unionized. Thus the labor movement derives much of its funding from public sector unions. Opponents of unions know this very well, and know that if they can essentially put public sector unions out of business, they can further cripple the already-weakened power of organized labor.
Some Catholics have written in support of Janus and made much of the fact that unions contribute heavily to Democratic politicians, who, sadly, are mostly pro-abortion. I deplore this myself. But one should notice that if unions are going to participate in the political process, they need to contribute to political candidates and campaigns. Perhaps if Republicans would begin to support unions, they too would receive some of labor's money. But as long as the Republican party is the willing servant of the most extreme policies devised by corporations and their lackeys, they can hardly expect to receive union campaign contributions, nor can one sensibly complain about union support for Democrats.
Employers have inherently more power in the labor market than individual employees. Unless workers are able to organize, employers will almost always be able to control wages, working conditions, and other matters that affect workers and their families. If workers are deprived of their present legal right to unionize a workplace by majority vote, and to require all who work there either to join the union or contribute their fair share toward unions expenses, then the union is rendered largely powerless. A threat of a strike, for example, would mean little if a union, instead of representing all employees in a particular workplace, were simply a voluntary collection of individuals. An individual worker does not have the moral right to sabotage the welfare of the whole by refusing the join in common efforts for justice and economic betterment.
Aside from the hypocrisy of those who wail loudly about individual worker freedom but who really are interested in their profits, the debate over union shops goes to the heart of some important questions in political philosophy. Is society simply a collection of otherwise free individuals, as John Locke supposed, who come together for limited purposes, but who are not social or political beings by nature? Or are Aristotle and St. Thomas correct that human beings are political animals, that is, beings who naturally live in a community with some kind of political structure, and thus social authority is neither an evil nor a fundamental imposition on human freedom? (I discuss this matter in more detail here.)
We might note that in the Middle Ages guild membership was required for anyone wishing to practice a particular trade, because it was clearly seen that unless everyone was compelled to join, the whole idea of guild regulation of that particular trade would have no meaning. But the radical nature of American individualism makes it very hard for many people to understand that we are by nature part of various interlaced communities. That same radical individualism that wants unions to be nothing but ineffectual voluntary organizations likewise sees marriage and the family as mere voluntary associations, where one party can leave for any reason or none at all. It is ironic that conservatives, who say much on behalf of marriage (whatever their actual behavior may be) are those who claim that unions are examples of intolerable coercion. Liberals, on the other hand, who tend to oppose efforts to weaken unions, would mostly regard laws forbidding or severely restricting divorce as examples of intolerable coercion. But the same principle is at work in both cases. Are people always simply free agents, bound to nothing but what their current whims dictate? Or are we beings naturally rooted in societies, large and small, societies which give us space to thrive and enjoy such genuine freedom as befits our nature, but not a false freedom that allows us to undermine the common good?
The capitalist economic arrangement of separating ownership and work has created an inherently exploitative and unstable situation for workers. While public sector employees are not in exactly the same situation as private employees, in the concrete circumstances of American labor history, public sector unions are a necessity. And more importantly, if public sector unions are nullified, the same arguments will be used to destroy unions altogether, making the entire United States one large "right to work" jurisdiction. This would be a deplorable result for workers and their families, and hence for the entire economy and society. The issue should be clear for Catholics. Summing up over a century of papal teaching, Benedict XVI wrote in Caritas in Veritate (no. 64) that labor unions "have always been encouraged and supported by the Church." If today unions often support politicians who hold positions profoundly at odds with other points of Christian morality, then the obvious response should be for more Catholic politicians to embrace all the teachings of the Church, to be as outstanding in their support of labor unions as they are of unborn life or of marriage. That this is rarely the case witnesses to the chaos in Catholic discipline and the widespread lack of adherence to the Church's teaching. But the response must not be to repudiate a labor movement that the Church, especially in this country, did so much to foster and protect. That heritage of both lay and clerical support of organized labor, though little remembered today, forms a glorious chapter in the history of the Church in the United States. If a sufficient number of Catholics recover that memory, then there is the possibility not only of a renewed labor movement, but of a fundamental transformation of American politics, a transformation which could offer Catholics once more an opportunity to participate in the political process without feeling the need to downplay or repudiate any of the teachings of the Church.

Ten years ago, because of a tight presidential race and funky ballot design, Palm Beach became infamous around the world.
There were many ballot problems in other states, but none of those races was as closely contested as in Florida. The controversy raged all the way through the Florida Supreme Court and the U.S. Supreme Court until George W. Bush was finally declared the winner on Dec. 12, 2000.
Meanwhile, images of our county commissioners, peering quizzically at punch cards held up to the light, inundated the news. Television reporters roamed local streets looking for interviews with voters who thought they'd been snookered by the "butterfly ballot" and covered protest rallies on the steps of the new Palm Beach County Courthouse. Long after President Bush was inaugurated, Palm Beach voters and officials were still being portrayed around the world as either inept or corrupt.
Of course, with so much scrutiny, other irregularities were bound to come to light. So when it was discovered that one of Palm Beach County's registered voters was a dog, it was icing on the cake. We were already the laughingstock of late-night television, so I drew a cartoon that showed the incident taken to its logical conclusion.
The dog, a standard poodle named Cocoa Fernandez, belonged to Wendy Albert, a suburban Lake Worth woman who denied she knew anything about the registration. She said it was probably a prank played by a friend, but she ventured the opinion that her dog's registration was kind of scary with all the problems in Palm Beach County.
The then-Elections Supervisor, Theresa LePore, who was still living down the butterfly-ballot design, decided to take the incident seriously, saying it was a felony to register the dog — carrying a possible five-year prison term and $5,000 fine. Later, the state attorney would decline to prosecute Albert because he thought the penalty was excessive for the situation.
As far as I know, Cocoa Fernandez never actually appeared on the Late Show with David Letterman. However, she got an endorsement from a pet food company, including a year's supply of vitamin-enriched dog gravy.
The pooch was an inspiration to many. Several other dog-registering incidents took place in various states within the next couple of years.
Sen. Kit Bond of Missouri also mentioned the Republican poodle when urging support for a bipartisan election reform bill on the floor of the U.S. Senate. He said, "Cocoa's owner registered the dog to shed light on 'failings in our voter registration system.'" Oops. It appears the senator might have let the cat out of the bag there.
So far, there is no evidence that any dogs have ever been able to actually cast a vote. But who knows? Anything is possible if they form a T-bone Party.

Zingle Ramps Texting Service For Hotels
David Wang
In a world where consumers use texting more than they actually talk to someone on the phone, businesses have been notably slow to communicate via texting with their customers. To solve that, a San Diego startup, Zingle says it has been offering up a service to help connect businesses with their customers via texting — starting with the hotel industry. According to Zingle, its text-messaging "concierge" product, which helps hotels communicate directly with their customers via texting. The company said that its service is already being used by such hotels as Loews Vanderbilt, Loews Portofino Bay Hotels and Four Seasons Philadelphia, handling everything from valet…

Like most businesses nowadays, your transportation enterprise is little doubt below pressure to search out more purchasers, stay ahead of the competition, and look for methods to chop prices. If you should not have any professional training, you would possibly take up a short-term meals safety class earlier than venturing into the cookie enterprise of your own. It's all the time a superb plan to make use of a proofreader who hasn't read your proposal earlier than, as a result of all writers are too near their own work to spot all the issues. If you've any additional questions, be happy to contact me and I'll be glad to reply to any queries that you've got.
If you live in a rural countryside where the only store is 10 miles away, likelihood is your candy business won't be overflowing with customers. My sons are aggressive tennis players and I invented my chocolate chip gluten free natural health cookie recipe only for them…..they're completely crazy for these cookies!!! Most of all, do not forget that considered one of a kind customer support is the important thing to a successful personal procuring enterprise. Yes, anybody can discover, obtain and print free legal varieties on the web but be cautious as not all sites offer professionally-drafted authorized types.
This point cannot be neglected as a result of in sensible phrases enterprise writing published on the internet is ineffective if the search engine outcomes don't embody it. When I acquired out of the automobile to take the letter in, I tore the letter at the bottom corner. The financial risks and effort required to develop a small enterprise often prompts many house owners to decide on the path of inaction. Businesses expect to see information in a specific order, very like a résumé or even a letter.
Your particular business will decide the specialised topics and pages you need to embody in your proposal. Writing a a call for participation does not imply you're legally responsible for the customer as soon as he or she will get to Canada. Once you might have quantified the size of the potential market you could crunch some primary numbers on how the Business Opportunity stacks up beneath different situations.

Hey, Does This Sound All Too Familiar??
You're tired of following "solutions" and courses that aren't bringing money into your bank account?
You feel like you know a lot but still something is missing...you need a plan to put it all to work.
You're kind of confused about what business to start or how to ramp up your current business, without going crazy in debt. You'd be stoked to have a business that funds your business...
You'd love to have a killer personal brand people love to follow and a website that makes you look like you've already made millions!
You'd be super excited if social media was rocking your business, growing your list, and even bringing in sales...instead of wasting your time and driving you nuts.
You feel a bit stupid (yep, I said it...I've been there), and even a little embarrassed, that your business hasn't taken off yet. You know you're smart and know you have everything it takes to be a business rockstar.
You'd be over the moon if someone just gave you a step-by-step checklist of WHAT to do and HOW to do it, so you could get it done and see real money coming in from your efforst.
I've got you! I've been where you are and turned it around into a million-dollar plus business I rock from my home office (and the beaches of the world...). Read on to learn how you can have everything you want and more.
I Hear Ya! I Know You Want To Stop Wasting Time, Energy and Money and Start Being the Rockstar You Know You Can Be.
Here's a Little Heart to Heart...
You Have What It Takes. There's No Question About It. NEVER DOUBT IT AGAIN!
I'm not unique...what I've done, you can do. You just need a plan, some "this works" direction, and a proven step-by-step plan that will move you past confusion and frustration, into fast, rapid business growth so you can enjoy the financial rewards your effort should be producing.
I Created the Booming Business Academy To Give You EVERYTHING You Need to Turn Your Sh*t Around FAST.
I'm Shannon Lavenia, the "Boom Your Business" Coach & Strategist and a bad-ass business chic who's made millions online...
but at one time, I was crying on my bathroom floor wondering what the HELL was wrong with me.
I felt stupid, embarrassed, and a bit like a loser. It actually hurts to write these words and admit it. It sucked. I wasn't lazy...I was working my ass off.
I'd taken every course, listened to all the podcasts and owned every web marketing tool money could buy. But I STILL wasn't making a dime.
Every time I saw someone succeed and get the results I wanted, I bought the next course and went for the thing they were doing, with zero results. I was even a bit envious of them (yes, I admit it!)
I had a brain full of info but no idea how to make it all work together
. So I humbly went back to the drawing board and put my former teacher brain to work.
I applied my "plan the year" training from teaching to my business and got a clear road-map of where I was going and what it would take. I set my eye on projects that would put me on the fast track to earning more and working less.
My business transformed into a rapidly booming, revenue generating machine. It became fun and profitable to be an entrepreneur.
Within 30 days, I ramped my income up to over $20K per month...that was pretty much what I was earning as a Biology teacher, so I promptly quit my job.
I continued to use my Booming Business Profit Blueprint to scale my business and in my first 16 months in business,
I earned $1.2 million in revenue
. That's when the phone started to ring off the hook with people wanted to know what I knew. BOOM! I launched my training business and so far have helped thousands of entrepreneurs realize their business aspirations!
It's Changed My Business Forever...
I have worked in a machine shop for the past 15 years and had no background knowledge in internet marketing.
Since working with Shannon in her right to the facts, no fluff style training course,s my marketing skills have been booming!
I am a follower for life!!
Timothy Kubik,
Plexus Worldwide Ambassador
Her Training Transformed My Business...
Shannon's technical knowledge about marketing combined with her passion and compassion for people is a rare combination. Her teaching style is enjoyable because she spices up her knowledge with real life examples and fun stories. What I've learned from her transformed my business.
Mariann Tilton
, Make It A Fun Life, Inc
What Could Your Life Look Like If Your Business Was Bringing In Boatloads of Income...Enough to Fund Your Freedom and Fulfill Your Dreams?
It would be pretty freakin' awesome, right?
You can create anything you want with an online business. I'm living proof! There's no "logical" explanation for why I earn 5X most professors, doctors, lawyers, and executives. I don't have a fancy business degree and I'm not a "braniac". My office looks like a tornado hit it on most days and I only work a few hours a day.
I've got a pretty awesome gig.
What catapulted my results and has kept me on the fast track is the
Booming Business Profit Blueprint

I've spoken on stages all over the world, teaching entrepreneurs how to MASTER ANY SKILLS in 5 EASY STEPS and HOW TO CREATE MASSIVE GROWTH IN RECORD SETTING TIME.
And, I base ALL of my training on exactly what I did to scale my business to mega-results FAST.

If you have the chance to work with her, take it. Your business will thank you for it.

I heard Instragram is really great for business. What do you think?
Maybe. It depends on your business, the products you offer, and your ideal customer. With the Booming Business Profit Blueprint, you will identify the people most likely to want, buy, and benefit from your products. Next, you'll align your "where to market" strategy to where those people are most likely going to be looking for what you offer. Instagram may be the answer, or it may be LinkedIn, Twitter, or Facebook Ads. Get it? That's why we provide training on all of them so you can learn what you need most.
I'm brand new to online marketing. Is BBA right for me?
Absolutely! This is the BEST course for you. You'll first learn the fundamentals of marketing in a free bonus called Marketing Basics to Pro. That will give you the foundational understanding of branding, marketing, and sales to build upon.
Will you show us how to create a sales funnel and membership site?
Yes! If you want to create a membership course like this one, you'll see exactly how we do it. We have every step listed out in a process you can follow to build your own online enterprise.

We want you to succeed. Our support is always available to help you. We get back to members within 24 hours. We do not provide technical support for outside systems but will direct you to the resources you need, saving you a ton of time and resources.
I have purchased a lot of different course and haven't finished them. I'm scared I'll do the same with this one. Any advice?
I get it. I've been there. The biggest advantage to this course is it is taught by a trained educator who's also a super successful business owner and marketer. The content is chunked down into lessons you can learn and apply. Plus, there's support to help you rock your way through it and get real results.
I'm just starting my business. Is BBA right for me?
Yes! If you want to jump out of the gates at full speed, become a Streamline Success VIP member. You'll get everything you need up and running quickly. Plus, you'll learn exactly what mistakes to avoid to keep your business growing and profitable.

I such with techy stuff (and hate it!). Will this program help me with that?
I get it! I was terrible with techy stuff too when I first started online. This is the PERFECT course for you. I break down anything techy into tiny "bite-size" chunks you can easily do and master quickly. You'll see how to do everything step by step PLUS have checklists that take you through everything.
I'm in an MLM. Can this course help me?
Yes! I have A LOT of experience in network marketing. Personally, I've earned several millions in network marketing using online funnels. I'll show you exactly how to focus your efforts and marketing so you stand out from other marketers and how to create your unique brand and message to attract great prospects and customers to your organization. You'll learn how to grow a team and sell a ton of product.
I'm worried I won't have the time over the summer to go through the course.
I get it...kids, camp, vacations, etc. This is just the right time to go through the course because coming out of Summer distractions is the hottest buying season of the year. Now is the time to get you business ready to create massive momentum and cash-flow. If you wait until September to get your business rocking, you'll be crushed by the competition and can lose a lot of business.

How to speak clearly and confidently in front of the camera? That's what most people want know when recording a web video.
Who better to answer the question than someone who lends her voice for commercials, corporate videos and telephone greetings.
I was fortunate to be introduced to a Professional Voice Talent, Sulabha, and to arrange a lunch appointment.
During lunch, I recorded a video blog and asked Sulabha to share some of her secrets which the rest of us can use quickly.
In this video, you will learn 3 valuable tips on speaking clearly and confidently on camera:
- 2 quick things to do before speaking and projecting your voice.
- 1 powerful idea that makes you speak fluently and naturally on camera.
- 1 simple method to remove fears and jitters immediately.
I enjoy recording a talent that require only one take for every scene. Watch the video and you will notice the minimum cuts.
Sulabha could speak continuously without a glitch to every question that I ask. There were no retakes at all... never!
PS: The HD video was shot in a noisy open cafe with an iPhone 4 and totally edited with the iPhone 4. No external microphones were used. The shots of me were from the front camera which is still in 4:3 size format.

Cayman's local Indian community recently celebrated one their most famous annual Hindu festivals, Diwali.
The Indian community here in Cayman has been celebrating this festival for the last 20 years and one of the members behind it said he's grateful to have the support of Caymanians as they uphold their traditions.
"In the Cayman Islands we still carry our culture and we are passing it to the next generation. So we are very happy that the Cayman community is very supportive in that and we would like to thank them for that," said Mr. Abdul Hameed.
Diwali symbolizes the spiritual, light over darkness, good over evil and knowledge over ignorance.

Little Dragon Spar... on May 15, 2013 wrote:I, Nathaniel Redflame, came from the two worlds of Dragonspyre and Celestia. I've been studying at the fire school in Dragonspyre Academy for years now. I've been going to the original fire school, and attend the gifted program in Wysteria. Once a week I visit the school of Ember in Wysteria for spells similar to those of fire. I also attend gifted at my other homeworld, Celestia, to attend the schools of Sun, Moon and Star. Since it's three schools, I go there 3 times a week. Let me introduce my parents. Malistaire is my father, and Morganthe is my lovely mother. I plan on destroying the spiral with them. (Don't tell them this, but that's only because I want to show you guys the Milky Way. Once the Spiral Door broke and took me to some weird "planet" (as they call it there) Earth.) They think it's because I hate you all. Sorry, but I still love them . My least favorite world near Earth is Mars. It's evil! It's red, which tricks you into expecting fire there, put when I flew there on one of Earth's space probes (whatever the heck that is), but I still have frostbite from those giant mountains of ice! I asked my friend, Vanessa Ice, if she knew the cure. She said to let any fire wizard cast Sun Serpent on me -_- . I told her I'm not risking my life in Azteca, but then Dalia Falmea accidently fumbled her wand and nearly killed me. But my frostbite's is almost cured thanks to my near death. I now like to spend my time secretly helping Headmaster Ambrose with saving the world. I just hope my parents don't find out. And yes, I know I'm both killing and saving the spiral, but I'll think of something. Just don't show this to Ambrose, because I got in detention for making up "nonsense" about people who don't believe in magic and Malistaire + Morganthe being my parents. Well bye! I have to go do another hour at detention now. Just 3 more years until my detention is over. -Yours truly,Nathaniel RedflameMagus Pyromacer,Rank 5 elite.

They were going to burn down the little church and plant a burning cross on the front step.Cheryl and her friend tried to escape through the side door, but one of the men had circled around the side, laying brush and gas-soaked rags next to the door. There was no way they could escape without being seen. So they retreated into the sanctuary and cowered under the altar cloth hoping to avoid being burned.Meanwhile, the sky took on the color of a week-old bruise and the air stank of ozone and heat. Ball lightning flashed over the parking lot. A figure in a white hood and robe climbed out of the driver's seat of the pickup and leaned against it, instructing the men to raise the wooden cross and light it.As the men hove the heavy wooden cross upright in the grass, suddenly a searing white beam of lightning transfixed the cross and the men on the lawn. It arced to the pickup and instantly killed the hooded figure. The discharge veritably nailed the men to the earth as it ran to ground through their flesh. Its impact boiled the soggy lawn underneath them, throwing clods of sod three feet into the air around the cross.Cheryl fainted in terror.The cross and tinder caught fire, flaring around the little wooden and tar paper church. Within seconds, the building was wrapped in flames.At that moment the heavens sagged open and unleashed a dense curtain of rain, which ran down the trees and walls of the church in massive torrents and doused the fire.The church miraculously untouched, the little girl emerged unhurt - but Cheryl disappeared. She woke up in the Ravenwood Infirmary, a new believer in divine(r) providence.

Sunnyside is the name of a neighborhood in the Mid-Island region of the New York City borough of Staten Island.
Two large city parks—Silver Lake Park and Clove Lakes Park—form the eastern and western boundaries, respectively, of Sunnyside, which is named for a boarding house that was established there in 1889; the vicinity had previously been known as Clovenia, owing to its location in what was then referred to as the Clove Valley, whose name survives in Clove Road, which runs from West Brighton to Grasmere, and is one of the neighborhood's principal thoroughfares. Clove Road forms the northern boundary of Sunnyside, separating it from the community of Grymes Hill.
Prior to the advent of cable television service, Sunnyside was noted for having the worst television reception on Staten Island, resulting from its being hemmed in by several hills, including Grymes Hill, Emerson Hill and Castleton Hill, the latter separating Sunnyside from neighboring Castleton Corners.
Sunnyside was once the home of a campus of the College of Staten Island; located at the foot of Emerson Hill, in 1993 this campus was moved to the grounds of the former Willowbrook State School, and an advanced-placement high school, the Michael Petrides Center, took its place. This center is also an evacuation site for residents during floods or other emergencies.
A large percentage of Sunnyside's residents are civil service workers, this demographic trait being typical of many Mid-Island neighborhoods.
Sunnyside is served by the S53, S61, S62, S66, S91, S92, and S93 local buses and the X14 and X30 express buses.

Link building is one of the most important, constant aspects of search engine optimization. It is a simple and sometimes tedious process, but it is absolutely crucial for long and guaranteed success. While many businesses and entrepreneurs struggle with the subject, it is quite easy to get the hang of.
Link Building Basics
In order to build a long and healthy list of links, it is important to understand the value of a link. First and foremost, a backlink is just simply a link with anchor text, or a link that uses words instead of the website's address. Search engines consider the words of the link when people search for that term, so building a portfolio of links with this anchor text in mind is perfect for gaining more traffic from search engines. That extra traffic translates to profit.
However, not all links are created equal. Addresses that end in ".gov" or ".edu" are generally the best domains to host a link on, while addresses that end in ".com" and ".org" are preferred as priority. Sites that end in ".net" are also a part of the upper priority, though they are not as common as the others. All other domain names are preferred below these, with ".xyz" and ".info" often falling at the bottom of the list due to them commonly being used as scam sites.
But Why Link Build?
With consistent link building, sites can rank higher in search engines. This is one of the longest-running, most fundamental aspects of developing a presence on search engines, and it is endorsed by all major search providers. It is the most trusted and consistent way to get legitimate, safe traffic without having to pay. It is highly advisable, and it's likely here to stay for many years to come.
