This guide is part of Smart Buyer, a free service from Personnel Today developed to help you make an informed purchasing decision for your organisation
1. PriceIs the price you agreed fixed? How will changes be charged? This can be very expensive if you are rolling out a large payroll software system that may require lots of changes over time.
2. LicenceIs the payroll software licence one-sided, limiting the customer's rights, or does it spell out the vendor's obligations, too? For US-based software companies, it's very common to see extremely tough contracts known as 'shrink wrap' licences.
3. ImplementationWho will actually implement the payroll package? It's vital to know that the people who are actually turning up to install your software have solid experience with your sort of company. You don't want to find out later on that all the supplier's best people are working on another site.
4. Project managementWhat methods will be used for project management, development and testing of the payroll software system? Different approaches are needed in different sizes and kinds of organisation – make sure the ones proposed are right for your business.
5. Sales supportDo they have a dedicated post-sales support team for the payroll package? If so, can they commit to guaranteed bug-handling fix times – so, all repairs to be addressed within 48 hours, for example?
6. EscalationIf problems can't be easily resolved, what is the escalation procedure?
7. Ongoing chargesAre there ongoing charges for things like renewing contracts, account management visits and technical support? It's important to nail down these costs now to avoid costly surprises later.
8. UpgradesCan you fix support and upgrade prices now? How much free support is included in the upfront price of the payroll processing software?
9. GuaranteesIs there a guarantee on the project – for example, are there penalties if the supplier doesn't deliver on time? Is there a warranty on the payroll software?
10. TerminationIs there a suitable clause for terminating the contract? Is the notice period suitable? Too short or too long could create a lot of problems for both parties.

Hello and Welcome...to the 8th Annual Perkinstown Snowshoe Race; a one-day winter adventure that's nestled in the hills of northcentral Wisconsin. Join us Saturday, January 19, 2013 for an event that promises to be fun for snowshoers of all abilities. Held at the Perkinstown Winter Sports Area, hundreds of runners and walkers will snowshoe along scenic trails that twist their way through the Chequamegon National Forest.

Ecoflex Pre-insulated Pipe offers flexible, plastic distribution for a variety of hydronic heating, cooling, potable and hot water applications. The pipe consists of durable Engel-method crosslinked polyethylene (PEX) tubing protected by multi-layer insulation and a waterproof corrugated jacket. The pipe comes pre-assembled with one or two service pipes, insulation, and a waterproof jacket – all in one pipe. A special oxygen diffusion barrier on the PEX tubing keeps oxygen from penetrating the tubing walls and entering the circulating fluid.
Ecoflex is ideal for applications that require underground piping to distribute water and other fluids from the heating and cooling water source to where it needs to perform, such as campuses, resorts, guest cottages or cabins, hospitals, housing developments, and snow and ice melting.
The watertight high-density polyethylene (HDPE) outer jacket provides protection from ground water which would otherwise rob energy from the system. The closed cell PEX insulation foam retains its insulation capability and thermal efficiency for the entire service life of the pipe.
Building partnerships for better human environments.
As a leading provider of radiant heating and cooling, plumbing and fire safety solutions, we lay the foundation not only for our products and services, but also for professional contractors and installers like you who are committed to providing the untimate in home comfort systems.

Well, it's about time.
Around four years ago, I started blogging. I hated the word – such an ugly word, "blog" – but I loved the concept. I was moving to the UK and I wanted to keep my friends and family updated on my life without writing long repetitive letters, and I wanted to force myself to keep a journal and keep writing, even if most of the time I was scribbling informally about the lack of root beer in the UK or the absurdly high number of banana peels one encounters while walking the streets of London.
Very quickly, I found that blogging wasn't just about reporting on the interesting things I did, it served as a much-needed kick in the pants – a constant helpful nag that yanked me off the sofa and forced me into the streets of London to find new and interesting experiences. Sometimes these were banana peels, other times it was rowboats on rooftops or celebrities skulking in the shrubbery.
That was ticking along nicely for quite some time, but then I moved back to the US (yay!), started blogging for my work (yay!), had a baby (yay!), and, well, the whole personal blogging thing got relegated to the back burner rather quickly (boo!). Occasionally I'd find a moment here and there to write, and even managed to accidentally defame a clown in the process (long story). But the drive had sped off in a puff of smoke, the focus had faded, and the spare time I used to find to write seemed like a pleasant but distant memory of simpler times, like happy recollections of recess in elementary school.
At some point in the past year I found myself with one dormant blog, another one that so ambitious and daunting it never got off the ground, one that I wasn't entirely sure why I had it at all, and one that was about the goings on of my monthly breakfast club (that no one was reading). Nothing was getting anywhere, and I hit a wall of frustration I came to call "the blog jam" and occasionally prodded it with a stick to see if it would go away without putting much effort into it. Sadly that wasn't the case.
But then came the Ukrainian hackers, who managed to slip some malicious code onto my sites getting all of my sites blacklisted by Google. It was the best thing that happened to my blogs in the past year, because it gave me the opportunity to press the big red button and nuke everything, wiping the slate clean. Cheers, hacker guys and your pet robots, that was just what I needed. You wanted my sites more than I did.
So now the blog jam has been blasted to bits, and this is what is emerging from the rubble – rough at the moment, but hopefully prettier and functional in the near term. My original blog, DSRB, is still resting peacefully on it's creaky old Blogger platform – go visit it and say hello if you wish – but I'm officially calling it quits over there and starting up here with renewed energy. One blog to rule them all. Or something like that.
More soon – I promise.

Any Benefit to Artificially Boosting the CTR for rank?
I've read articles that indicates Google will provide a higher rank to listing with higher click through rates (i.e, http://bit.ly/132mUd0, "If a search result achieves a higher than average click through rate then it may be given a higher ranking.")
First, this seems like a chicken-and-egg scenario: it seems like results with higher rank will have higher CTR from increased exposure, no?
Second, if this was an accurate ranking signal, it seems like it would be so easy to black hat (as well as other web usage signals, such as goal conversions and time on site). I'd just pay some Indian dude to search for my website on different IPs and click through in the SERP.
Your thoughts about this scenario?

Day 116: My Difficult Decision
I see people seem to leave of Empire Avenue far too often. They seem to leave in three ways: Terminate, drop out, take a break. With the exception of people who officially Terminate, it's not always clear when players have dropped out or taken a break.
Termination: I think this is a mistake unless you see that this game/business will be of no value in your work.
Dropping Out: I suspect that players who drop out are just fed up and need a break, and they just walk away never to return. This may be ok for them, but there shareholders may go through an agonizing decision process as they watch share prices continually slide.
Taking A Break: There are a lot of ways to take a break, sometimes the change in status is barely a ripple, sometimes it's as bad as players who just drop out. I've seen many examples that can only be explained as people becoming occupied with other activities then returning and their shares eventually returnto their former levels.
A Problem With Empire Avenue
I've seen far too many friends and acquaintences just disappear from EA. I believe I know enough about Empire Avenue to understand what happens in most of those cases. And I'm sorry to say that I believe EA is flawed as a game and a business because it doesn't provide people with remedies for managing the demands of the "game". Your stock begins to fail as soon as you need time for your real life.
In the recent survey circulated by Paul Steinbrueck (e)PDSTEIN, this problem was addressed. And in follow-up articles and comments I've read, it's clear that this is a major problem that not only limits the growth of EA but also threatens it's future.
My Problem With Empire Avenue
The truth is, I'm struggling with the daily pressure to drive Network Activity. This has gone on for several weeks and it's taking a toll.
Regardless of all other considerations, I'm facing the harse reality that the amount of time and effort it takes to keep growing my earnings & dividends, plus keep managing my portfolio has reached a level I can't justify at this time.
The even harser reality is, for Empire Avenue to be useful for me it would have to recognize the two blogs I write for because this is where I want to direct my daily activities. Facebook, Twitter and Flickr are important parts of my social network, but with only one of my blogs being recognized I have to seek other activities to generate the Network Activity needed to feed my daily Earnings & Dividends.
My Difficult Decision
I am going to have to push my Empire Avenue activities down to a level where they no longer interfere with my main goals related to writing for Being Yordie Sands, and iRez Magazine.I believe EA can be helpful to me in building my audience and brand, but for now I feel many activities are taking away more than giving.
EA has helped me create a social network and I'll focus on strenghtening that network. My top connections are through Facebook but I'll continue to work on my Twitter & Flickr connecitons. Those contacts are valued and I'll continue to devote time each day to strengthening those bonds.
The thing I can't predict is how the changes in my activities will impact my Earnings & Dividends; however, I won't allow myself to worry about these daily fluctuations. Many experienced players have told me to be patient, and I believe this is the only way I can move forward. Pushing just takes too great a toll.

State: | MN |
Subject: | Business Opportunity Rule |
Title: | Notice of Proposed Rulemaking |
CFR Citation: | 16 CFR Part 437 |
No Attachments |
I have been an Amway/Quixtar IBO (Independent Business Owner) for ~12 years, two different lines of sponsorship. For the last 4 years, I have been an "independent" IBO, with no tie to any large management/motivational group. My first 2 years as an IBO, I was affiliated with World Wide Dream Builders (WWDB) and up until 4 years ago, I participated in Network 21. It is very important to note that I am no longer connected with these groups. As an independent IBO, I market the Quixtar business opportunity exactly for what it is, a small home based business, easy and inexpensive to set up and run, without books tapes and functions. A very important point is that Quixtar is not WWDB, not Network21, not part of any large motivational groups "system". It is my understanding that the proposed regulations are intended to protect the public from deceptive marketing practices that are honestly not part of the Quixtar business. The deception, cultish indoctrination of the unwary, is the trademark and pervue of the large management groups. As an independent, I worry that part of the proposed regulations will be a much larger hurdle for those of us that are honest in our approach to this business, and in some cases actually support the "smoke and mirrors" of the large management groups. My concerns: 1. Prospects would have to wait seven days after receiving disclosures before they could register. - Simply unecessary because Quixtar has a money back policy. Other MLM's need what we have with Quixtar. Regulate a 30 day money back guarantee. 2. You would be required to give every prospect a list of "references" – the names, addresses, and phone numbers of 10 other IBOs in the area – seven days before the prospect registers. *** If I'm an independent IBO, I will not be able to provide this because I am independent and have very little idea of who is also in this business within my area. I may or may not have a downline. I may have just a few downlines, which is perfectly acceptable and more in line with the reality of this business model. If I'm part of a large marketing group, I would be overjoyed with this rule and hand pick and script the best references, maintaining the "big business" illusion. This is regulating a "Boiler Room" type scam into being and only supports the problem, the large deceptive management groups. 3. You would have to give every prospect a list of all lawsuits, arbitrations, and other legal claims for the past 10 years involving Quixtar and its IBOs where the plaintiff alleged fraud, misrepresentation, or unfair trade practices – regardless of whether or not the accusation was true. *** Amway/Quixtar and the independent IBO's are not the perpetrators of the legal problems. These suits arise as the result of the big management groups deceptions and lies that are part of their every day routine. As an independent business owner, I am more than willing to disclose my record. Why should I falsely affiliate myself with WWDB riff-raff? Maybe the IBO needs to be upfront about his marketing affiliations and provide prospects of all the alleged misdoings of his/her marketing group. Let's seperate the wolf from the sheep. 4. You would have to make a different disclosure for every income claim. *** Great! Let's also require that IBO's disclose how much their management group uplines are making from tapes, books and functions. Let's get the cards on the table. 5. You would be required to provide prospects with personal financial documents to back up ("substantiate") any income claim. *** No one short of the legal establishment has the right to request my financial documents. This is an unreal intrusion into anyones life and can't be justified because they are MLM marketing. I believe we need to honestly represent the business opportunity, not expose our personal finances. The real problem is not the business opportunity. It's the deceptions of the large groups. Let's not strengthen their hand.

| Automated Forex Trading
Hi everyone, This is my first post on Steve's forum. I'd like to share a particular method of passive income which was successful for me during the last 12 months. What i do? I trade forex with automated strategies. I've researched many other forms of Internet-based business or income which is not related with 9to5 job. Being inspired by popular article "10 reasons why you should not get a job". Thanks Steve Blog writing, selling ebooks, giving online seminars, affiliate programs, etc. I know it works for many people. Maybe its the fact that i'm lazy... i've always found it massively difficult to attract traffic. And even with traffic, sales were extremely rare. What I like about automated forex trading? 1. I don't have to find customers. 2. No traffic/visitors needed. 3. No waiting for payments from Amazon or Google - profits are instantly on my brokerage account. 4. Minimum of my time is involved. I set automated systems once and can earn forever. 5. I can increase my position size when I want and thus increase my potential income. All i have to do is change few settings in my trading software. What are the bad sides? 1. I can lose money. With Adsense for example you can't, only your time. Besides the costs of domain and hosting, of course. 2. There is no guarantee whether i'll make any money in any given month. 3. It requires initial capital. The higher the better! Why i use automated systems to trade rather than do it by myself manually? First of all i simply *love* the idea of employing my money to work instead of me working for money. The technology enables me to do it, why not profit from it? The second reason is the fact that I could never make profits on the markets making the trading decisions by myself. Its so psychologically hard, Id never want to return doing this. I wonder how many of you explored trading? Did it work for you? I'd like to share experiences with peers who are doing the same.

I'm an active trader - not full time but working toward it. I don't use robots or EAs or indicator based systems though. Pure price action/support resistance. Had an absolute blast today shorting the Euro I really hope you're not here to sell something |

Forex has always struck me as one of the least favorable trading venues, at least the typical MetaTrader bucketshop brokers. I think it's always dangerous to have your price feed controlled by the same entity who's the counter-party to your trades, who also knows what would otherwise be private order book information. That's just a formula for shenanigans.

Requote! Requote! My broker (GFT) are OK, their platform has some great features but I prefer MT4 which they've just started offering. Forex intraday is pretty horrible, I don't trade anything lower than the 4H and even then only rarely. I like daily/weekly timeframes. | |

I wonder how many of you explored trading? Did it work for you? I have been trading for the past 4 years. Not actively only once a week if I see USDX biasing against the EURO and go long against the EURO with a handful of basket pairs with US dollar. Did it work for me? Not really mostly breakeven and never have the courage to admit I'm wrong and closing the losing trade. Will I still pursue forex as a living? Yes, it is better then buying 4D and Toto in Singapore. I saw lines and lines of poeple forking out $50 - $100 on buying the paper with digits on it. Everyday, do you think those money is better invested in your trading capital. The Casino in Singapore is attracting many locals creating a possible bubble in their pockets. And they think I am gambling my money away in forex. I believe in trading edge. You must have an edge over other traders in the market then you will live longer. Because like poker if you do not know who is the dummy then you are the dummy or something like that. Regards David |

(AP) — Sears Holdings Corp. shares jumped Tuesday after its CEO disclosed that he bought 1.24 million shares of the retailer's common stock from an investment fund he controls, boosting his personal stake in the company.
THE SPARK: Hedge fund billionaire Edward Lampert, who is chairman and CEO, bought the shares Monday from his hedge fund, ESL Investments Inc., with about $55 million of his private funds, according to a Securities and Exchange Commission filing.
THE BIG PICTURE: The purchase shows support for Sears, which operates both Sears and Kmart stores. The Hoffman Estates-based company has struggled to remain relevant to consumers in recent years and has seen its stock price tumble.
Since peaking in April 2007, Sears shares have lost about 77 percent of their value. In just the past year, the shares have dropped about 40 percent.
The company has posted six straight years of declines in revenue at stores opened at least a year. While Sears shoppers have been hit hard by economic woes, critics have long said the company hasn't done enough to compete with Wal-Mart Stores Inc., Target Corp. and others.
Lampert was named CEO in January, replacing Louis D'Ambrosio, who left because of family health matters. Lampert engineered the combination of Sears and Kmart in 2005, about two years after he helped bring Kmart out of bankruptcy.
THE SHARES: Up $3.13, or 7 percent, to $47.30 in morning trading, after peaking at $47.47. Over the past 52 weeks, the company's shares have traded between $38.40 and $85.90.

The 7th meeting of the Scientific and Technical Review Panel (STRP) -- the party on the terrace!
STRP7 met on 29-30 April 1998 and generated another awful mess of ideas, suggestions, proposals, wishes and dreams, summaries, declarations, decisions, indecisions, and of course Minutes, as well as Summaries of the Minutes -- all of which create burdens for everybody for the next year or more -- draft decisions, agenda papers, guidelines and methodologies, yadda, yadda -- but in any case the meeting was certainly fun whilst it lasted.
Even better than the meeting itself, if you can believe it, was the reception held on the terrace behind the IUCN headquarters building in Gland, Switzerland.
Julia Tucker, Bureau Administrator, is also the party administrator, and administered this one as well. Elizabeth Salter (right) heads back to the snacks table again, whilst Mihály Végh (background) call home to his own planet. |
Excess of conviviality under the towering concrete beauty of Switzerland. |
Dave Pritchard, RSPB and BirdLife International, entertains the gathering with a recitation in heroic couplets of passages from his recent study of the implementation of the Ramsar Convention in Trinidad and Tobago. |
Antonio Carlos Diegues, invited expert from Brazil, shares a conspiratorial moment of forbearance as Roberto Schlatter tells more South American jokes. |
Mihály Végh (Hungary) seeks words to express how much happier he is out on the sun-drenched terrace than cloistered up crowded and dark in the meeting room. |
Elizabeth Salter (WWF), a invited specialist in endocrine disrupters and other toxic nightmares, had all the STRP participants eyeing the plastic bottles of mineral water dubiously, and dejectedly, but had nothing bad to say about glass bottles or wineglasses. Julia Tucker (left) affects surprise, again. |
Wetland Conservation begins to seem fun again, at least to Max Finlayson (Australia), but Montserrat Carbonell of the Bureau (left) is not yet convinced. Rebecca D'Cruz (back to camera) is edging away warily. |
Altogether, an excellent meeting, and a better party.

I love those "What's In My Refrigerator" features that People is constantly doing, so I figured hey: I'm no Dr. Oz, but it's still always fun to see what's going on in the depths of someone else's drawers.
(Caveat: This is not what my refrigerator usually looks like. I tend to do a major shopping trip once a week, and then sort of supplement with mini-trips to get the extras I need for the night's meal on a daily basis, so as the week progresses the produce sorta dwindles and is replaced by Tupperware.
But that weekly shopping trip happened this morning (at 7:30; I had a burst of energy, what can I say?) and so here's what it looks like right this very minute.)
1. This is the little "baby stuff" section, and is stocked with the bottle that we're working on at the minute (Indy is an odd one, and prefers his bottles chilled) and Ella's Kitchen organic baby food pouches, which are incredibly handy and have the side benefit of making me feel like an amazing, nutrition-providing parent every time I open one (combos include things like spinach/apple/rutabaga, carrot/apple/parsnip, and broccoli/pear/pea).
2. My two favorite things at the moment: top-quality skirt steak (I get the butcher to cut the strip into three pieces to make it easier to marinate/grill) and salted chocolate-covered caramels, both from Fairway. (Click here for my fave marinade recipe.)
3. I always keep a couple of cheeses on hand for snacks and guests; right now, I'm really into this amazing 12-year aged cheddar from New Zealand.
4. YoBaby Organic Yogurt is awesome, and delicious enough that I've been known to "assist" with breakfast from time to time. (By the way, I'm not particularly diligent about making sure that everything I eat is organic – although I know I probably should be, I'm usually more interested in "affordable" and "good" – but I figure I should go organic whenever possible with my son…and as it turns out, all the most delicious-looking kids' stuff is organic anyway. Nice.)
5. Kendrick bought me this dilled garlic ages ago, and it looks wonderful, but I have no idea what to do with it…so it's just been sitting there, looking wonderful. Any ideas?
6. Arugula is one of those things that goes bad almost immediately after you buy it, but we eat so much of it every week (dressed with either olive oil and balsamic or with olive oil and lemon juice, and usually paired with grilled steak) that it makes sense for me to get the big carton.
7. I'm a big fan of saving money on food wherever you can, but one of the things I'm more than happy to spend a little extra on is bacon: the good stuff is just so much better. I bought this Applewood-Smoked Country Bacon at Eli's, and am planning on incorporating it into some homemade guacamole tomorrow afternoon.
8. This Tupperware container has been sitting there for long enough that I'm afraid to open it. Moving on.
9. Corn is one of those things that I can't get enough of when it comes into season, and lately we're all about Mexico City Street Corn (made with butter, mayo, cotija cheese and chili powder, it's unbelievably messy but also unbelievably delicious).

The proposal will develop an inclusive and responsible tourism model in the protected areas of Bolivia; with opportunities to generate inclusive businesses in areas of high potential for responsible tourism and where investment forms of private capital and of local communities can take place as consortium-societies. The proposal pretends to develop a model after supporting a sustainable development pilot initiative in the Protected Area of Madidi in Bolivia.
The proposal includes the identification of potentially touristic sites in protected areas; study of types of association between private capital and community capital; establishment of mechanisms for economic quantification and the regulations of the touristic landscapes in protected areas as the contribution of capital of the local communities; determination of the facilitation role and support role of the National Service of the Protected Areas as a public entity responsible for the conservation and management of the area; labor regulations; organization of the community elected for the pilot experience; negotiation with associations and touristic business networks, as well as negotiation of agreements to develop the pilot experience of a tourism business.
Explain in detail why your approach is innovative
Protected Areas (APs) of Bolivia have important potential touristic products that are not being exploited for the benefit of the indigenous communities in spite of the efforts and policies made by the National Service of Protected Areas (SERNAP) to promote and facilitate the development of touristic entrepreneurships as an action compatible with conservation of the environment.
The lack of economic resources and business capabilities of the communities haven't allowed the development of high quality tourism entrepreneurships, except for some experiences that had the support of NGOs – providing high levels of investment and mid-term periods. Meanwhile the demand for development alternatives puts at risk these conservation areas.
The proposal aims to develop an innovative model of responsible inclusive tourism that is replicable to all the Protected Areas, allowing the promotion of associative entrepreneurships between investors and local communities that are highly touristic with the win-win perspective. Local communities will be included in the value-chain in a fair way by recognizing the economic value of the environment and the touristic attractions and by considering economic value as part of their capital contribution.
This model will help SERNAP to facilitate the development of similar entrepreneurships, guaranteeing the safety of private sector investments and the generation of fair benefits-revenues for the communities.
Describe the degree of success you have had to date. How do you measure, both quantitatively and qualitatively, the impact on sustainability or enhancement of local culture, environment, heritage, or aesthetics? How has it transformed or contributed to the power of place or demonstrated the sustainability of tourism? How does your approach minimize negative impacts?
and the communities. However, these initiatives didn't replicate. That is why it is important to develop a model that focuses in the economic inclusion and conservation principles promoted by SERNAP. These principles promote the development of consortiums-societies that guarantee fair benefits for the communities, as well as guarantee the safety of private investments.
SNV has advised more than 80 experiences of inclusive businesses. It did it with indigenous communities in Peru (Machu Picchu) generating positive impacts in employment and economic inclusion.
Tourism in Protected Areas contributes to the promotion and consciousness towards conservation and sustainable use of cultural and biodiversity patrimony. It constitutes an alternative for the generation of economic benefits for the local communities; and provides environmental, social, and economical sustainability for these areas.
It promotes the integrity of conservation and development, valuation of culture and fair distribution of the benefits of conservation.
The qualitative and quantitative impacts will be measured after the development of the first pilot experience. After that, the impacts of the private-community entrepreneurships will be measured in terms of economic inclusion of the local communities.
In what ways are local residents actively involved in your work, including participation and community input? How has the community responded to or benefited from your approach?
National policies regarding Protected Areas in Bolivia seek to generate alternative ways of economic development for the local communities. Tourism becomes one of the most important options due to its potential to generate revenues and due to its compatibility with conservation. The development of an economic inclusion model will allow the incorporation of the private sector together with the local communities in a mutually-benefit partnership. Local communities will be included as direct partners due to their potential contributions.
How does your program promote traveler enthusiasm, satisfaction, and engagement with the locale?
The Protected Areas have an important quantity, quality and diversity of touristic attractions that are visited by national and foreign tourists. The most visited places are the ones linked with touristic centers or touristic routes, where the interest is related with ecology, environment, and natural landscapes. By developing touristic entrepreneurships with full participation of the communities, we contribute to responsible tourism; that is the why the visitants are motivated to use community services in recognition to their commitment with environmental conservation.
Describe how your work helps travelers and local residents better understand the value of the area's cultural and natural heritage, and educates them on local environmental issues.
Tourism in Protected Areas is an important instrument to make people aware, orient values, attitudes and best practices for environmental conservation and care for natural resources.
At the same time, tourism in protected areas is an economic activity with important social effects; it strengthens the relation and commitment of the communities with conservation actions. In this sense, tourism contributes with environmental and social sustainability and with the generation of employment in the Protected Areas.
This Entry is about (Issues)
How is your initiative currently financed? If available, provide information on your finances and organization that could help others. Please list: Annual budget, annual revenue generated, size of part-time, full-time and volunteer staff.
In the initial stage it was funded with SNV resources: Design of an inclusive and responsible entrepreneurship model. SNV designated a specialist who allocated 25% of his/her time and a planning specialist who allocated 10% of his/her time to this labor.
If the support to this initiative is approved, a 50% co-funding will be guaranteed by SNV, SENARP, the community and private investors.
Is your initiative financially and organizationally sustainable? If not, what is required to make it so? Is there a potential demand for your innovation?
The model of inclusive businesses is highly sustainable due to the fair incorporation of local inhabitants in the design and development of the value-chain, as well as the fair treatment of providers of services, distributors and also consumers. The community inclusive businesses create benefits and revenues while generating active co-responsibility to secure conservation.
We want to empower and include the populations of the Protected Areas of Bolivia.
What are the main barriers you encounter in managing, implementing, or replicating your innovation? What barriers keep your program from having greater impact?
Taking a wide look, we don't see any important barriers since 1) there is an emergent need to generate alternatives for inclusive economic development of the local communities, alternatives that are compatible with environmental conservation and for environmental and social sustainability of the protected areas 2) a national policy for protected areas already exists and it promotes inclusive tourism 3) there is a need to develop an alternative model so the business sectors –together with the communities – guarantee fair agreements for the communities and safety of private investments. However, to guarantee a normal management, implementation, and future replication we will need to develop communication and informational processes, regulations of public laws, and to promote open negotiations among communities and investors
What is your plan to expand or further develop your approach? Please indicate where/how you would like to grow or enhance your innovation, or have others do so.
This initiative will be developed through the generation of public policy that will promote inclusive tourism entrepreneurships in Areas Protected by SERNAP - management authority of Protected Areas in Bolivia. This way, the definition of a responsible tourism model, development of a pilot proposal, will allow a parallel development or adjustment of the policies, regulations, instruments or actions needed for the generation of a favorable environment for the development of these entrepreneurships. At the same time, associations and potential investors will be involved in the creation of networks to replicate this model in the future.
The Story
Please provide a personal bio. Note this may be used in Changemakers' marketing material.
We are two professionals dedicated to promote inclusive and responsible tourism in order to improve the conditions of living of the communities.
Jhonn Gomez, agronomist, planner, and environmentalist specialized in public policy. I was director of Protected Areas of Bolivia. Currently, I'm an Advisor of SNV - Bolivia regarding processes for strategic planning and incidence in national public policy for the adjustment of the Planning System in Bolivia.
Scarlet Illanes, professional of tourism specialized in Direction and Management of tourism businesses. I was Director of Tourism at a Department Level. Currently, I'm an advisor of SNV – Bolivia for the tourism, inclusive business, and touristic destinations with economic inclusion program.
What is the origin of your innovation? Tell the Changemakers and media communities what prompted you to start this initiative.
SNV (Netherlands Development Organization) is an institution with social objectives that provides strategic consultancies, technical assistance, and innovative solutions to eradicate poverty and inequity. SNV has more than 150 professional staff located in 32 countries in Africa, Latin America and the Balkans. SNV promotes the capabilities of public sector, private sector, and actors for development of solutions that promote good governance, increase in economic income and employment for low-income populations, promoting also access to basic services.
Regarding the origin of this innovation: 1) the need of the local indigenous communities that live in protected areas to have alternatives to use - in a sustainable way - the natural resources for their own development; while feeling the commitment with the conservation of these places while the areas provide them with economic benefits without damaging the environment. 2) The need to implement a national policy for the management of Protected Areas in Bolivia. Policy that seeks to generate economic benefits for the indigenous communities located inside the protected areas, through environmental conservation and by complying with their rights, grounded by the 169 ILO Agreement. 3) The lack of control, regulation and development of the touristic activity in the Protected Areas, which is generating negative impacts in the conservation of those areas, since the communities are neither part of these activities nor part of their direct benefits. 4) the need to promote "safe" alternatives for the development of private sector entrepreneurships and investments; with the perspective of contributing with economic inclusion of the communities and generation of employment, better income, and reduction of poverty.
SNV (Netherlands Development Organization) is an institution applying to this contest. SNV has developed and implemented more than 80 inclusive businesses projects in Latin America through partnerships with private businesses. Those inclusive businesses have benefitted a big number of people at the base of the economic pyramid. In addition, SNV has developed, in Bolivia, successful experiences of institutional strengthening and generation of public policies at the sub-national public sector level for the strategic planning and economic inclusion development. From the developed experiences and from the perspectives of tourism in the development agendas, we have considered that tourism at the Protected Areas as a potential factor for Bolivia's compliance with its national policies of development, economic inclusion and conservation of natural and cultural resources.
Describe some unique tourist experiences that your approach provides. Be specific; give illustrative examples.
The possibility of institutionalizing a public model that provides the opportunity of development of private and community entrepreneurships focused in economic inclusion. Inclusive businesses unify the value-chain and the market with the communities, facilitating responsible tourism that contributes to the generation of employment and that promotes development of poor communities. These businesses do it without neglecting the commitment towards biodiversity and environmental conservation of these areas; making it an unprecedented model for the development of tourism.
What types of partnerships or professional development would be most beneficial in spreading your innovation?
SERNAP is a public entity responsible for managing the Protected Areas of Bolivia as national heritage and for promoting alternatives for development of local communities located inside the Protected Areas.
The Vice-Ministry of Tourism, the National Council of Eco-tourism, and the National Committee of Eco-tourism are searching for synergies from working with a) businesses that provide touristic services that operate at the destinations, b) organizations linked with tourism and that have important economic resources to start profitable businesses in the tourism sector, and 3) associations of communities that are recipients of the proposal.

text: The 5th District Congressional campaign of outgoing House Speaker Christopher Donovan was rocked in April with the arrest of its campaign finance director for concealing the $20,000 in campaign contributions. The arrest was part of a sting operation in which undercover FBI agents purported to donate funds in exchange for killing legislation that would tax merchants who sell materials to allow customers to roll their own cigarettes. A federal grand jury is probing other allegations. In an apparent effort to clear his name, Mr. Donovan hired former U.S. Attorney Stanley Twardy to conduct an investigation. Mr. Twardy reported his findings Thursday, and found no wrongdoing by Mr. Donovan — but acknowledged he was unable to interview all the players. Does this clear Mr. Donovan?

Product DescriptionEncouraging readers to be more discerning and discriminating in their elucidation of Scripture, Carson exposes improper techniques of biblical interpretation. He groups exegetical errors into categories of word study, grammar, and logic, refuting common misconceptions in a straightforward and accessible style. A working knowledge of Greek and Hebrew is helpful but not necessary. 148 pages, softcover from Baker.

The second edition of "Exegetical Fallacies" updates old fallacies and presents new ones to help correct these errors while interpreting texts. (60)

"This was one of the better recipes i've gotten in a while. I made it a one pot meal. The only thing I changed was to use a nice Pinot Grigio instead of sherry. I started the rice cooker first, and doubled the sauce for my bone-in split chicken breast. Then when the chicken was done and removed, I put the sauce to a fast boil, and added a bag ..."

"Very Easy!
I put all of the stuff in bowls, and let my girls mix it up. Then I add boiling water and help mix it the rest of the way. We made four batches in like 20 minutes. Also stores very well in baggies.
Great recipe."

Thank You."

"The sauce on these is soooo good. The biggest problem is an hour is way too long and my chops dried out. I decreased by 15 minutes the second time i made them and they were still a little dry.

"My 6 year old loved this. She ate a whole one, and she's a picky girl so i was shocked.
For me the inside was almost doughy. I think maybe rolling the crescent so thin, and then it mixing with the filling while cooking caused it to have an odd texture. I won't be making these again."

This week's episode is a retrospective of Sierra's classic graphical adventure game Police Quest. Designed by a real-life policemen (Jim Walls), this game is unique in the Sierra lineup and boasts three sequels. Offering great humor in addition to serious police work--not surprising since Al Lowe was involved--Police Quest was the first Sierra game I ever played. I was never able to get very far since I had a pirated copy with no manual (the irony!), but that didn't stop me from trying and having a great time with it.
Download the video here.
Buy Police Quest 1-4 from GOG for only $10. Use this link and I'll get a kickback!
If you'd like to submit a video idea for the retrospectives, here's the rules:
1. 10-30 seconds
2. Introduce yourself (name or handle is fine, but don't forget it)
3. Where you're from (city, country if not from the U.S., etc.)
4. What game you want me to review
5. What makes the game great/unique/historically important
That's all there is to it! If I decide to review the game, I'll post a clip of your video in the retrospective, as well as a link to your video channel if you have one.

TEAMS: Philadelphia Eagles, Carolina Panthers, Philadelphia 76ers, Oregon Ducks
TEAMS: Philadelphia Eagles, Carolina Panthers, Philadelphia 76ers, Oregon Ducks
It's been a busy week for the Philadelphia Eagles. On Monday the lost again, this time to the 2-8 (now 3-8) Carolina Panthers. There were some positives to come out of that game, but for the most part it was another major letdown. That lead to the release of Jason Babin and nonstop controversy since. We have always been hearing about head coaching rumors already and another new offensive line grouping.
First, let's address the Babin fiasco. Babin is a great guy. He had twitter giveaways for game tickets and his fan club's clothing line. He had 18 sacks last season and was expected to rack up around 15-18 sacks again this season. His production went down which lead to a decrease in his popularity. Philadelphia is a sports town. They love their athletes when they are performing at a high level. They let them know when they aren't producing. This fanbase hasn't seen a football championship since 1960. You are either a part of the solution or a part of the problem. Babin became a part of the problem and fans get on him because of it.
Babin also criticized the fans, which never goes over well. A very small portion of the fans deserved it. Some really awful things were said. Not every Eagles fan says some of the things these monsters said. I would see maybe 0.05% of the fans act like that. Remember, a loud minority beats a quiet majority. I hope those fans got their season tickets revoked, but Babin still shouldn't have questioned the entire Eagles fans's loyalty.
Babin got released because he became an overpayed, situational pass rusher who was a liability against the run. He was taking snaps away from younger guys like Brandon Graham and Vinny Curry who were outperforming him. Why keep around a player like that when you are 3-8? The move was beneficial for both sides and both sides should move on. Babin has been using the media in Jacksonville as an outlet to bash the media in Philly. Today, according to Vito Stellino's twitter (Jacksonville writer) he said that the Eagles writers were unprofessional, wore shorts, didn't tie their shoes and had stinky breath. I wish Babin all the best in Jacksonville, but this sounds like he is trying to stir up trouble. Sometimes after a breakup you just need to move on. The Eagles are slated to host the Jaguars in 2014.
There are rumors that Howie Roseman is already working on a deal with Chip Kelly to be the next Eagles coach. Kelly is currently preparing Oregon for their upcoming bowl game. I doubt the two talked about a contract, but the two probably did talk. Roseman is a GM, he talks to hundreds of coaches a year. He could of been talking about Oregon linebacker Dion Jordan for all we know. This is a rumor and nothing more.
Evan Mathis has been getting reps at center this week. This could be because starting center Dallas Reynolds has missed some practice this week or because Danny Watkins is close to 100% and the coaches want their 5 best offensive linemen on the field together. The new offensive line could be (from left tackle to right tackle) King Dunlap, Watkins, Mathis, Jake Scott and Dennis Kelly. If Mathis does well at center he could stay there next season. The next Eagles coach may want a bigger center if he runs more of a power running offense.
I don't think a lot of Eagles fans even realize that it is "Beat Dallas Week". The rivalry has lost is mojo this season. The Cowboys are 5-6 and are hanging on by a thread. The Eagles fell off a long time ago. This game just has no excitement to it. Neither team is making the playoffs, although the Cowboys have a decent shot as they are only a game back of the wildcard spot. A loss this week to the Eagles probably kills the Cowboys season. Maybe if the Eagles had shown enough signs that they could win this game the fans would be more excited. At this point the fans are just counting down the weeks until the season is over. That alone will get Andy Reid fired over anything else.

I am also a new follower from FMBT, Good luck. I've been trying to loose weight for so long now, for my health and so that my husband and I can start our family. I found that actually eating breakfast (which I was not doing) helped a lot, and upping the amount of water I drank in a day, as well as trying to be alittle more active! Good luck~!

I found you on one of the follow-hops! I'm having the toughest time getting back into my weight loss / workout routine as well!! I'm blaming it on the heat. Now that it's getting beautiful out, I have no excuses not to walk!! I use myfitnesspal.com to track my calories (well...I use it when I'm motivated to lose!!).

Just found and followed you through blog hop. I was put on a diet very early and please I beg you, set the example for your children that it is more about being healthy and looking after our bodies as a temple of God than some random number that is supposed to be healthy. Dr. Phil says you can't be overweight unless your lifestyle allows it. If you are eating food close to the way it came out of the ground, preparing most of it yourself and enjoying healthy exercise with your children, you will be healthy.
