Hello, 55 y/o male whose ears have been ringing for the last 30 years.
Single round fired from a .357 MGM in an Arroyo without hearing protection in 1985. Ears have rung ever since. Right ear worse than left (go figure as I shoot right handed.
The military told me then (and several times since, there was really nothing which could be done.
30 years later and well insured, I saw an audiologist who set me up in a $6,000 pair of hearing aids. A lot of fancy talk about trans positioning, etc. following pretty much the same hearign test I took 30 years ago (has hearing diagnosis really not changed in 30 years). A month and 3 visits into these things, I am returning them for (hopefully) a full refund.
The bottom line is the people I perceived as mumbling previously still mumble. The people who I could understand, I still understand, but have to filter out the click, crunch, and rattle of the HAs to understand them. The people whom I perceived as too loud, I now want to throat punch. The wind noise of my old car sounds like a woman being eviscerated alive. In summary, everything new that I hear with the HAs is just annoying noise.
Frustrated enough to find a calibrated online hearing test, you could describe my hearing loss as:
Freq 250 500 1k 2k 4k 8k
Additionally, I would estimate my tinnitus tone as around 8k (using an online generator).
I'm old enough to realize audiologists are ultimately HA salesmen, so I understand they are not going to tell me there is just no way to help. But after this experience, I am concluding (at least the pricey HAs I have), there may be no help.
So, my question is if anyone is in the same boat, hearing wise, and has actually found an HA brand that works for symptoms similar to mine?
Alternatively, does anyone know of a brand of HA or Personal Sound Amplification Product which allows end user programming? I'd like to be able to customize the gain levels of various frequencies myself to see if I can get any relief.
I'd like to find an HA with (I assume) extended reproduction/amplification capabilities. From what I can tell, most work between 250Hz and 8,000Hz, with a maximum gain of 80bB. Since my right ear hearing loss at 4K and 8K is more than 80dB, I woudl guess I need something with a bit more power.
Thanks in advance for any assistance.

Project Report on Quantum Mirage
The term quantum mirage refers to a phenomenon that may make it possible to transfer data without conventional electrical wiring and is a very good topic for project and seminar work for Engineering students.Use it for reference and study. work only. You can also Subscribe to FINAL YEAR PROJECT'S by Email for more such Projects and Seminar.Instead of forcing charge carriers through solid conductors, a process impractical on a microscopic scale, electron wave phenomena are made to produce effective currents. A quantum mirage is a spot where electron waves are focused so they reinforce each other. The result is an energy hot zone, similar to the acoustical hot zones observed in concrete enclosures, or the electromagnetic wave focus of a dish antenna.

|RE: Latest on Cocoon?
|Wed, 15 Dec 2010 15:57:18 GMT
Hi Mark, We have been developing our XML-driven Web site using Cocoon 2.2.0. Overall Cocoon 2.2.0 worked fine for our purposes. However, you need to consider your requirements! You need to check the list of blocks related to Cocoon 2.2.0, there are quite a few unreleased blocks that need work before they can used in this version of Cocoon. (see http://cocoon.apache.org/2.2/blocks/1204_1_1.html ) For instance, instead of using the lucene block for search, we are using the combination of Cocoon and Solr (see http://lucene.apache.org/solr/ ). We were hoping to use the portal capabilities offered by Cocoon, but the portal block is not released. So we will be looking for a different solution. Cocoon 3.0 has been in alpha with no significant development for more than two years. In our view this is currently not an option. BTW, to get a rough idea of how vibrant an open-source community go to markmail.org and type in the technology you are interested in (e.g., http://markmail.org/search/?q=cocoon) ... you will see that excitement around Cocoon has peaked between 03-05 and then waned in recent years. Alfresco, on the other hand, is all the rage now (http://markmail.org/search/?q=alfresco). Hope that helps in your decision process. Cheers, Marc ________________________________ Marc N.

"I financed a 3 glass door freezer from Elite Restaurant Equipment for my food market. I was opening this business up from scratch and construction costs were high, I knew I would pre-pay it but was just tight on cash flow. The no pre-payment penalty was great, I was able to close out the balance within 8 months and saved the 4 months of interest. My total interest rate was about 7%, and if you're a small business you know that's great. Additionally I was able to store the freezer with frozen foods, ice cream, and more making way more the minimum monthly payment of $375 or so."
Lisa Brennan
San Diego, CA
"I needed a small new 3 compartment sink, and I landed on Elite Restaurant Equipment. I never saw a payout option for such a low cost item, I think it's convenient, so I did it. I paid $30 bucks a month and got my sink in a week. It's a good deal"
Maxima Zuck
Brooklyn, NY
"Very convenient option for business people. I was estimated my ROI with the equipment, it was higher then the monthly payments and that's a good deal to me. This is an opportunity to have your money work for you.

Cranberry Marmalade
Recipe by Sharon123
What a lovely way to use those cranberries when they you are tired of making the traditional sauce!
Top Review by Jonathan H.
As a pastry chef I am always dubious of recipes. I tried this recipe, and once I figured out the amount of pectin, I was blown away with the result. This is just fantastic and I highly recommend it. I made a double batch today to give away for Christmas. Regarding the pectin: in Canada we don't have bottles of pectin, but have pouches of liquid pectin. The recipe requires 3 ounces of liquid pectin (or 1 pouch of Certo liquid pectin). Thanks for a fantastic recipe!!!

This review was conducted by the Fanon Review Squad and reflects our best judgment of writing and fanon authorship quality. Please don't take offense if the review wasn't positive. We always give advice!
Hey there, Mageddon725 here, reviewing Saying Goodbye by SifuHotman on behalf of the Fanon Review Squad.
Aang's saga has ended and Korra's has begun. But we never had the chance to say goodbye to our friends in The Last Airbender. This series takes place towards the end of Aang's time. He has lived a long and happy life and knows that his time is coming. Now all he wants is one final adventure with his friends and family, and this is his way of saying goodbye.
Saying Goodbye is a truly touching fanon piece, and I apologize to SifuHotman for the incredible and rather inexcusable delay. I can feel the characters from A:TLA, and even in their old age, their personalities are intact. This is Aang's swan song. And it is filled with humor, joy, and a haunting sadness. Kudos to Sifu for this.
Story – 9.5: The plot is a heavy one, but humor and joyful moments throughout make both a great balance and a fantastic story.
Action – 9.3: Though action is not the focus, what is present is well written and defined.
Writing – 9.0: The grammar is spot-on, here, but the structuring of sentences, particularly in relation to characters speaking, could be a tad more spread out.
Creativity – 9.8: I've seen more and more of these in-between fanons, but this one outshines them all.
Believability – 9.2: There were a precious few times where I felt things moved too quickly, but that does not do much to take away from this story.
Character Development – 10: I will focus on one aspect just to give a picture of how well this is done: Zuko. His character is still so complex and engaging, and he isn't the only one.
Average Score: 9.5
Note: All scores are out of ten
Advice for SifuHotman: Two words: keep writing! Honestly, this is a fantastic piece, and I can't wait to see more of it.
Who should read Saying Goodbye? Anyone who wants to wish Aang well as he passes on, allowing Korra to take on the role. Seriously, this series is awesome!

Brian Krebs
Security Fix Blogger
Friday, March 9, 2007 11:00 AM
A transcript follows.
Brian Krebs: Greetings, and Happy Friday dear Security Fix readers. I'm going to dive right in, but as always, please try to include as much detail about your system and software setup (OS version, whether you're using anti-virus/firewall software and what kind, any error messages, etc) if your question is problem-related.
Washington, D.C.: I'm wondering if I've gotten some sort of spyware or virus on my PC (XP SP2). A couple weeks ago, my Internet Options icon changed by itself (on a limited user account). The icon on the admin account didn't change. I'm wondering if a recent error message had something to do with it. It said something about the display and to restart to get back to normal. Everything on the screen was really large, a different color and hard to read. I restarted and everything seemed ok. Sometime after that I noticed the icon changed. I ran ZA antivirus and some antispyware (ZA, Spyware Doc, Defender, Adaware) and nothing was found. Am I paranoid or is my computer infected?
Brian Krebs: Hi D.C. Just because you're paranoid doesn't mean everybody isn't out to get you. But seriously, you should be a little paranoid on a Windows machine: it helps keep you on your toes ;)
To your question, Many pieces of malicious software today will disable security software on your machine as their first move. Sometimes, the only way to know whether your machine is clean is to run a third-party, online scan.
This is your lucky day, Washington: It so happens that we just minutes ago published a blog post about this very topic. Check out this post for more details and advice on this subject.
Buffalo Grove, Ill.: I have Windows XP Home Edition and Computer Associates anti-virus through att.yahoo DSL. My computer crashed and I had to re-install everything but now I cannot re-install Zone Alarm Firewall (free edition). I get an error message that Zone Alarm can't be installed because of my Computer Associates AV. I had both before, why not now?
Debbie G.
Brian Krebs: Hi Debbie. I'm not sure what's going on here, but it seems to be a documented problem (see Zonelabs' User forum threads on this).
Personally, I'm not a huge fan of CA, and it pretty consistently earns low marks in anti-virus comparative tests.
There are plenty of other, better, free options that may play nicer with ZA, such as, and in no particular order or preference: AVG 7.5 Free, ClamWin, F-Prot, Avast, Bitdefender and AntiVir. Good luck.
St Paul, Minn.:
Is there any other ways to enhance firewall security beside just have a soft/hardware firewall? I use Windows 2000 Pro and under advance tcp/ip ip security, I see you can allow/dis-allow port access. Will this help harden the system more. If it does why hasn't anyone made more mention of this?
Brian Krebs: Sure, you can do this if you want. I don't see how it could hurt, and if you start experiencing network problems you can simply re-enable them if needed. But I don't really see it as necessary. Some commercial firewall software lets you pick and choose which ports should be open and closed in much the same way, or which programs should be allowed to use which ports.
As far as other options, it's probably overkill for most people, but I'm putting together a Smoothwall installation at the moment (smoothwall is a barebones Linux installation that acts as a hardware firewall that sits in front of all of the rest of your network equipment and firewalls.) If you have an older PC lying around and a couple of extra network cards and some ethernet cabling, and like learning networking and maybe a bit about linux, this is a pretty cool option.
Another idea is to check out a program like MyNetWatchman, which uses your firewall logs to alert you if it looks like someone has compromised your machine. MyNetWatchman uses a very interesting and innovative approach, and it's free. Learn more at this link here.
Stormville, N.Y.: Good morning! Dell Dimension 4700, Win XP home, Norton AV 2007. I have experienced the "blue screen death" twice. The offending driver was A5AGU.SYS. This driver belongs to my D-Link DWL-G132 Wireless USB adapter. I read that it causes "a critical overflow that can lead to kernel-mode code execution". My understanding is that this is a security problem. My question is : is my system infected? How do I find out if it is?
p.s. Since I found out the above I connected my PC to the modem direct (i.e. no wireless) I just found out there is a patch for the software flaw.
Brian Krebs: Good for you, Stormville. Yes, a patch was issued for this problem/vulnerability back in November 2006. You can find out more about it and obtain the latest fix at this link here.
Silver Spring, Md.: Brian - if I reinstall my hard drive on another computer with a new motherboard, will Windows XP load and function properly? Will I be able to get security updates from Microsoft Update without incurring the wrath of the Genuine Advantage tool? My current motherboard appears to have died on me. I've backed up most of my data. But I'd rather keep on using my current XP-loaded hard drive on a new machine, if possible, than switch to a new Vista machine. Also, could I reinstall my OEM copy of XP on a new hard drive and motherboard, or would that be prohibited by Microsoft?
Thanks for your help.
Brian Krebs: Are you going to be using the same processor on the new motherboard? You may encounter trouble in activating your copy of Windows after swapping out major pieces of hardware like a motherboard. If you get this error, you can usually clear it up with a call to Microsoft's activation center, and it should walk you through how to contact them at that point.
Depending on a lot of variables, you may experience inability to boot or you may have no problems moving to a new motherboard. Some people say the only way to make sure you get a proper install when moving serious hardware around is to re-install the operating system, but that pretty much wipes all the programs and settings you had and is a very painful process. You might consider other approaches, such as Sysprep or another such utility.
At a bare minimum, I would make sure to back up all of the data you want to keep from that hard drive. You might consider downloading or purchasing software to help you make an image of your entire hard drive and store that to a removeable media. You may also want to back up your system drivers (great advice for anyone, really). See this link here for some tips and tools for that task.
To your final question, you purchased a copy of Windows XP with your computer, correct? That entitles you to use the license key on one machine. Provided you are using it on one machine and one only, you are not doing anything wrong.
Pittsburgh, Pa.: Hello Brian. What anti-virus software do you recommend and can you give a URL that has instructions for uninstalling Norton Internet Security? David C.
Brian Krebs: My personal favorite, as I've noted in the past, is ESET's NOD32.
Symantec has uninstall utilities downloadable from their site for most versions of NIS. You didn't say what version you are using, but just Google it along with "uninstall utility" and you should be all set.
Merrifield, Va.: Brian, thanks for posting the link to the Windows DST updates. I used the guided updater, and when I double clicked to run the patch I'd downloaded, I immediately got a dialog box stating that it couldn't install because I already had a newer patch installed on my system (Windows XP Pro, SP2). Great, that's what I wanted to know - but isn't there an easier way for those of us who allow automatic updates to check to ensure that the DST patch was downloaded and installed?
Brian Krebs: You're welcome. Merrifield is referring to yesterday's blog post about the lack of security updates on next week's usual Patch Tuesday.
I'm sure there are more elegant ways to figure out if you have this DST update installed, but on my Windows XP SP2 system, the one that worked for me very quickly was to check for the presence of a file called "tzchange.exe" in the C:\Windows\System32 directory. Mine was installed on Jan. 29, 2007, and is a 59 kb file.
Minneapolis, Minn.: If memory (of the error messages) serves, the other day when clicked on an inforworld.com article, I got a Windows warning asking if I wanted to allow a script to run (no) followed by a stack overflow error message. I only got the first error message once, but every time I tried to read the article I got the second error message. What is going on here? Is the site infected, or poorly written, or incompatible with IE7, or...?
Brian Krebs: Does it only happen when you visit that particular Infoworld article, or does the same message pop up when you visit other sites? Sounds like some kind of script on that page is too clunky for the browser to handle or may be poorly written.
As this sounds like a scripting problem, you may also want to check to make sure you're running the latest version of Sun Java Runtime Environment (I believe J2SE Runtime Environment 5.0 Update 11 is the latest.
Do me a favor and drop another question in the hopper with a link to the problem article. You may also want to send a note to the Infoworld webmaster.
Cody, Wyo.: Hi Brian, I do a full system backup to an external hard drive 3 times weekly. (I use Drive Image 7, an older program, but I've had no problems at all with it.)
My question: If my computer should crash and die, could I just restore the backup without having to reinstall all my programs? That would be a daunting task, as I have probably 3 dozen or more software packages running. I've heard some folks say that is exactly what I'd have to do after restoring a full backup.
Fortunately, I've never had a computer crash on me in the many, many years I've been using one -- since 1975. But all this time I've been assuming a full system backup included not only the data files, but the programs themselves. And that's exactly what the Drive Image manual says. What's your opinion? Thanks! John
Brian Krebs: Cody, a drive imaging program like DriveImage or Acronis TrueImage (what I use) is most useful for its whole-drive imaging function: i.e., it will make a (sometimes compressed) copy of your entire hard drive, allowing you to move an exact copy of your system the way you have it now over to a new drive should your current hard drive fail. It's important to keep the images on a separate partition or hard drive (external) so that if you do run into problems you're not potentially dealing with a corrupt or otherwise inaccessible or unusable duplicate image. Most programs allow you to back up to multiple DVDs as well, but I've found DVDs to be less reliable and more of a hassle than, say...an external USB hard drive.
Hope that answers your question.
Alexandria, Va.: Brian, I'm running Xp and it seems like there have been urgent upgrades to download every day. Is this fallout from Vista?
P.S. I uninstalled Norton AV and switched to AVG and ZoneAlarm on your recommendation and am loving it.
Brian Krebs: Hrm, well, welcome to Windows. Haha, seriously...you shouldn't be prompted for updates "every day." Microsoft releases patches on the second Tuesday of each month (except not this one), and they haven't issued an interim patch that breaks that monthly cycle for a while. If you're putting off installing patches, then yes, it will bug you non-stop to install them, as it should.
Am I missing something in your question? Vista will have its own service pack (massive bundle of security and other fixes) out later this year, but XP's patch woes owe little to Vista.
Glad to hear you're happy with my advice, thanks!
Greenbelt, Md.: Here's a way you can check to tell if you have the DST patch installed or not. I am not sure how well it works though. http://dst.cdes.umn.edu/ Good luck.
Cody, Wyo.: Thanks, Brian, for your thorough answer. I do use a USB external hard drive. So it sounds like I'm in good shape. Thanks for your great columns -- they've been a lifesaver for me! John
Brian Krebs: Glad to hear it, John, thanks!
Brian Krebs: That's all the time I have today. Thanks to everyone who dropped by and helped make this a fun chat. Security Fix Live will be back again two weeks from today. In the meantime, please make a habit of dropping by the Security Fix blog and join in the discussion there. Until next time...

I Need Cake Construction Help And Pan Size Help !!!
Decorating By doublecz1103 Updated 29 Jun 2008 , 11:48pm by indydebi
i'm working with a bride who keeps changing her mind.. and FINALLY she's come to a decision.. lol the image below is the "ideal" cake she wants in construction design.. however, this is my first wedding cake and i have NO CLUE WHAT SO EVER about how to support the cake and the fountain... HELP!!! also i only need this cake to feed between 150-175... soooooo what size cakes would everyone recommend me using to make this picture... HELP ME!! lol
Everything you ever wanted to know about making your first tiered cake:
indydebi's illustrated guide to cutting clean slices of tiered cakes:
Fountain help threads:
That's waaay too much cake for 150-175. What about this cake by Boween http://www.cakecentral.com/modules.php?name=gallery&file=displayimage&pid=636183
You could show it to your bride and see what she thinks.
If your 12" cake is on a 12" plate, I don't think your fountain will fit between the pillars. You'd have to use a 14" plate under the 12" cake (and under the fountain) for the fountain to fit.
I've done fountains that sit on top of cakes..... you do them no different than you do for cakes ... good dowel support under the plates and you're fine.
Here's some cakes I did with the fountain between the tiers:

How soon after a long term relationship should you wait to date? If you meet a guy and still have feelings for your ex would that guy be considered a rebound? On average, how many of you waited to date and how long?
Most Helpful Guy
It really depends on the person but I don't think anyone can really get over a good relationship. We all have feeling for people we were really in love with even long after the relationship has ended. But when a relationship has ended some people dwell on it, and they stay there at the end for a time (some longer than other). And a "rebound" is just you moving on from the end to the ability to have a new beginning. Even if the one you "rebound" with is someone you have no future with it still is a good way to get back out there.
All that being said, it is only considered a rebound if you still are stuck at the end of a relationship. If you have moved on (you can move on but still have feelings for your ex) then its just another date.
And moving on just means you have accepted that its over and are willing to try to start something new.00|00|0

An excellent job, very impressed with the finish and would definitely recommend them.
Great customer service, competitive price and an amazing standard. Would not hesitate to use again and would recommend to others without a doubt. Happy to provide pictures of the great job completed if anyone would like them. Many thanks Jamie and team!
We hired Hassan to do a tidy up job in a spare room. We have now found our 'go-to' guy for all things DIY related! He is reliable, friendly, knowledgeable, professional and very trustworthy. We felt comfortable leaving him with a spare key after knowing him just couple of days. I would have no problems recommending Hassan for all kinds of structural or decorative work. In fact he is currently quoting for a job next door! He has got a great knowledge of interior design and is a bit of a perfectionist!
Best tradesman I have ever used. High quality work, wonderful finishes - after the first job we continued to hire him for more work in the house and also around our estate. There is nothing that he cannot do - superb! Would strongly recommend
Turned up on time, finished quickly and left everything tidy.Would recommend.
Wow, this guy was fantastic. Reliable, punctual, polite and really knows his stuff. Def. have him back again. I posted the job on Rated people at 14.00 Wed, he priced the job 18.00 when I got home from work, started at 9.00 Thur and finished exactly as he said. Plus had some plaster left so gave it 3 coats instead of the usual 2. A totally welcome stressfree experience.

About the Book About the Author
A jewelry store clerk is devoured by a mass of flesh-eating worms.
It's just another heist for WILLIE "THE WORM" PITTS and his gang. There is a strong suspicion that the police cannot control crime in the city. The entire department is on edge.
Against this backdrop of crime gone wild, STAN POCAROBA, a K-9 police officer, keeps his unit of dogs ready to go and emotionally attached like a close-knit family. For Stan, it acts as a replacement for his own disjointed family life caused by the tragic death of his brother at a young age. Something his mother would never let him forget.
One night, Stan and his K-9 Unit corner Willie in a university lab. During the gun fight, Stan is exposed to an archeological genetic chemical. Willie takes a lab research chemist, Juanita, who is also the daughter of the mayor, as hostage in order to escape.
Stan needs to hurry if he wants to save the Mayor's daughter. However, as a result of the lab accident, Stan soon discovers that he is able to transform into a prehistoric raptor with all the powers of the fabled hunter, but not without a few drawbacks. The police mistake a transformed Stan for one of the criminals and a dragnet is set up for his capture.
Time is running out. Willie buries Juanita in a coffin with a 48-hour air supply, adding a snake and a mouse to keep her company. He demands $10 million from the city or he will let Juanita die.
Can Stan control his transformations enough to find Juanita? Will he be captured by his own police department? And how will the dogs cope with a prehistoric raptor as their commander?
"Raptor Cop" is a non-stop, action/adventure roller coaster ride---with all the exciting twists and turns!

The future of Xbox will be re-written this coming May 2013. The makers behind hit Xbox 360 have finally announced that the next-gen console will "mark the beginning of a new generation of games, TV and entertainment." Microsoft, the console maker has finally, put juicy rumors aside. So, the successor to the mighty Xbox 360 will be unveiled on May 21 at 10am. The company also revealed that at E3 2013; better prepare to see few new titles.
Earlier this year, Sony took a bold step by announcing a successor to the PlayStation 3. The Sony PlayStation 4 boasts of mega powerful processor inside coupled with 8GB of RAM. However, Sony didn't show the actual console during the PS4 reveal. It is speculated that the Japanese giant is planning another explosive event next month.
GizBot has come up with few talked about features of the next-gen Xbox 360 based on rumors.
Click Here For New Gadgets Gallery
The next-gen Xbox will have a custom designed hardware. It will be quite similar to the PlayStation 4 in terms of specifications. Add: 1.6-GHz CPU 64-bit, eight-core processor, 8GB of RAM, 1TB of hard drive space, and Wi-Fi. The system will be bundled with a Blu-Ray player as well.
If you are happy with the Xbox 360 controller then the bad news is that it won't work with the next-gen console. The new controller comes with a new identity. It could boast motion controllers.
The Kinect proved to be a big success, and the so-called Kinect 2 should be more integrated with the next-gen console. The original Kinect was optional, but this time around Microsoft will surely bundle Kinect 2 with every console you purchase.
The rumored Xbox 720 will have a set-up box built in the device itself. As the Redmond-based company is fascinated towards entertainment segment, so naturally, Xbox 720 will have the entire right ingredients to be called as super entertainment system.
There is a big confusion: whether the next-gen Xbox requires "always -online" internet connectivity. One has to wait a little longer or wait at last May 21st.
Another speculated rumor that could destroy your experience with the Xbox 720, and that certainly should be avoided by Microsoft. It is said that the next-gen console from Microsoft could block used games.
Wow! Let's talk about games. There is no clear picture in front of us in regards to games. But GizBot expect these very titles to dive on the next-gen Xbox 360: Halo 5, Destiny, Forza Motorsport 5, Call of Duty: Ghosts, and The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt among others.
Microsoft could announce Xbox Surface, a 7-inch gaming tablet this year. As of now, it is unknown whether the mysterious device has some kind of usability attached to the Xbox 720. But it won't use Windows 8.
The next-gen Xbox 720 should be made available around Christmas 2013. The estimated cost of the console is pegged around Rs. 20,000 in the international market.

Please confirm that you want to add Startup Metrics: Analyze a Business like an Investor to your Wishlist.
Measuring the right data in your business is essential for long-term planning. Startup success depends on making strategic decisions to improve these core numbers or metrics.
This course is required for anyone planning to start a business or those who have already have a business but don't have a business training and are not familiar with the fundamentals of analyzing the performance of a business.
This course walks you through the three stages of every startup. It goes deep into business numbers and strategies, breaks them down, then takes the core principals out of them.
Entrepreneurs need to know what core numbers to look at, how to track them, and how to improve them. Very often entrepreneurs seeking investment aren't able to answer simple questions about their finances and provide solid numbers in front of a venture capitalist.
This course will create a solid foundation for entrepreneurs to learn about startup metrics and make sense of the numbers in their business.
Welcome to this course. Let me tell you why the content of this course is important for every entrepreneur, what topics I will cover, and a lit bit background about myself.
As an entrepreneur you should decide and be clear about what type of business you are building. This decision affects your strategies in growing and allocating your resources and efforts. There are two main types of businesses.
When you start raising investment money for your startup, you should study the investors before you approach them. Pick the ones that have a investment criteria that match your startup.
To become interesting to investors, you should show that your first attribute is that you are an effective entrepreneur. This means you understand and can focus on the highest priorities at the stage you are in. You can execute, measure, and improve. This course is giving you a framework to know what to focus on, how to measure it, and how to improve it.
As a startup grows from early stages to world domination, it goes through distinct stages. The goals, challenges, and strategies in each phase is unique. In this lecture you will learn about these stages.
In product/market fit stage you are exploring, and figuring out what problem you are solving, what your solution is, and who your customers are.
You need a metric to measure if there is fit. This lecture gives you a simple way to measure your product/market fit.
Learn the key metrics in showing the efficiency of your business in using cash, its capital needs, and the timeline for the next fundraising.
What is MVP (Minimum Viable Product)?
After you find a product that is in demand you are ready to put resources into accelerating the growth of your business. This stage has its own unique challenges, goals, and performance metrics to be measured.
You should think about how you can increase the frequency of purchase for each customer. MRR is a metric that measures the recurring revenue.
Let's learn the terms related to sales funnel: lead, prospect, customer, loyal customer
Funnel helps you to figure out how much to spend to acquire one customer, compare different channels that you use to acquire customers, and find your best customer segment.
VCs look at churn rate as an indicator of whether or not you really have a good product/market fit. If your user growth reaches a plateau after 6 month, because users are leaving, that is a sign that your initial product/market fit was based on a small sample of data. You should think about ways to improve the churn rate.
When growing a business, the financial structure of the business model impacts how much capital is required to grow the business. One common problem companies face is the cash flow problem.
To fuel customer acquisition you may have been experimenting with affiliate programs, paid advertisement, PR, content marketing, partnerships, referral programs. Soon your growth starts to slow down and you'll need to focus on what is working the best. It is important that you test and measure these experimentations and then put more resources into those that work.
This is an important metric that shows how much you earn in total from a customer before they leave your business.
How much can you spend to acquire customers (e.g. on Google or Facebook)? By keeping an eye on this metric you know how far is too far.
Entrepreneurs make mistakes in calculating how much they spend on acquiring one customer. This number is very important and impacts your customer acquisition strategy. Therefore, you should avoid these common mistakes and calculate it correctly.
Magic number is a metric that shows how efficient your marketing strategy is.
Contribution margin is a metric that shows how much of each dollar in revenue will be kept as profit.
What is considered good/better/best for these metrics?
VCs have started to evaluate investment opportunities with an imaginary benchmark in mind: can this startup become a $100 million per year opportunity? Let's look into 3 ways you can reach to this benchmark.
These are the companies that generate $10s from each customer. What are the key metrics for the specific challenges they have?
Steve starts a business. Let's go over his numbers.
Let's rewrite the profit formula to discover the impact points.
Let's change the fixed cost and see its impact on the profit.
Let's see the impact of changing the unit cost on the profit.
Let's see the impact of changing the unit price on the profit.
Let's see the collective impact of changing the five impact points on the profit.
I am the founder and CEO of a tech startup in Silicon Valley. In my executive and management roles I have created and sold software and hardware products, have raised investment money, and have established strategic partnerships. In my role as an instructor for the MBA program at the University of Maryland I have taught business growth strategies for startups and have been a mentor for startups. I started my career as an engineer (with a PhD degree in Engineering) and product manager, but soon found my passion in building and growing companies.

Southern Colonies: Maryland
Cecil Calvert founded Maryland in 1632. Maryland was founded for religious freedom, for the Catholics. The climate was warm and damp, meaning they had no problem with farming. Their cash crop was tobacco. In 1649, The Toleration Act was passed. This was the first law in America that said that all Christians were free to worship in their own ways.

Even though the Baen Free Library has been severely cut back, there are still a large number of Baen ebooks available on the free BaenCDs but finding and accessing them is a little harder than it used to be. As of last December, Baen requested that the sharing sites such as Fifth Imperium stop allowing downloads of individual titles and only offer the complete cd's.
These are not pirated copies. These cd's were all originally released as companions to various dtb editions and Baen granted permission to share them for non-commercial purposes.
Here's the link to the download site:
And here's an annotated list of the contents on the cd's:
For those who aren't aware of the enormous role Baen played as a pioneer in the ebook field, here's a quote summarizing their history which recently appeared in the Good e-Reader blog: "Baen was one of the pioneers in electronic publishing, starting with a BBS and then with a website and chat room. The company then adopted ebooks, making it one of the earliest proponents of the medium. All Baen books were, and still are, DRM-free. In another first, Baen started Webscriptions, which were serialized versions of its books at reduced prices, which were sold 3 months in advance of print publications. Baen again was a pioneer when it introduced promotional CD-ROMs, which could be purchased or downloaded for free, containing all of an author's works. If you can think of an innovative way to distribute ebooks, Baen probably did it first."
