We've also noticed a lot of our clients are trying to get all their plans made and equipment booked for the new year before everything slows down around the holidays. We've got some hot specials to keep you going through the cold winter on plasma display monitor rentals.

If you have a trade show or convention coming up in one of the major convention centers around the nation, then give us a call or submit a quote online about one of our plasma display monitor specials, designed especially for major trade shows and conventions. Our typical package includes a plasma display monitor rental or lcd monitor rental, dual post stand with a shelf to set your dvd player or laptop on, and speakers. In short this is about everything you'll need to get by at your next event and give your booth the boost it needs to draw in new clients. Of course we have the largest inventory of rental equipment in the U.S. should you need more equipment, so don't hesitate to get a hold of us today.ICCRentshttp://email@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-6103835823967236698.post-44535529830619590862008-11-04T13:25:00.000-08:002008-11-04T13:50:11.924-08:00Internet Down = Slow DownHere at ICCRents we can provide you with anything you need, but without a reliable internet service provider you might be out of luck. We learned that first hand recently when out of nowhere our provider "inadvertently" cancelled our internet account at a New York City office. I put that word in quotes because that is pretty much as close as they came to being able to explain the situation. One minute internet access, the next minute, dead in the water.

Naturally this happened on a Friday morning when we're trying to wrap up all of our technology rentals up before the weekend and by the time we closed the office at 5pm we were still offline. Fortunately our network of other offices and professional were able to handle everything for our clients (one of the benefits of being the biggest in the business!)

If that wasn't bad enough, Monday morning we were faced with the same thing until around mid-day. By then our manager had set us up sharing a low speed cellular card hooked into a laptop to at least get by. Aside from that everyone got real good at organizing all the papers piling up on the desks and getting to all those low priority things like cleaning up desktops and filing. The point of the story is that even a technology rental company with some serious expertise in computer and av rental can go offline at the mercy of an ISP provider.

I also mention this because all the laptop rentals and computer rentals we provide are guaranteed to work just fine, but you may also want to make sure your internet provider is as good as we are at customer service. If not you may be totally offline with your feet up watching something on one of our plasma or LCD Screens until you get your connection back. It becomes very obvious how much business gets done via the internet these days and having a steady connection can make all the difference.ICCRentshttp://email@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-6103835823967236698.post-21347543110996766132008-10-30T10:42:00.000-07:002008-11-07T05:57:32.668-08:00The Right Solution.

I'm starting to wonder if I am the only one out there who is still rocking the small 19 inch CRT television. You probably recognize what I am talking about - it's the one that looks a lot like the TV's you see stacked in the street to be thrown away, or in a giant heap at the recycling center. It almost weighs more than I do, has some cheap built in speakers that I regularly keep around the 80-90 level just to hear it over the NYC noise all around me. You know it is time to upgrade when your Mom has a better TV than you do, and sadly, that is the case with me.

How come I don't upgrade already to a big screen plasma tv like the ones I see at all the trade shows, exhibits, newspaper advertisements and business lobbies? I am scratching my head and wondering why myself. After all I do work for a company that will rent big screen plasma tv's to businesses all over the place, so maybe I just stare at them too long to realize that when I get home I don't have one. It seems like I see them every Sunday in the newspaper advertisements and all over the internet as discount web specials. And with Football season starting (and my fantasy football league dominating all my friends by the way) I should really be watching the games on bigger and better quality screens. Like the kind of screens that dominate the whole living room big. Maybe if the Raiders make it to the post season I will treat myself (read: very slim odds!)

Sexy is not the go to word when it comes to computers and laptops, but when your looking down at the streamlined titanium shell of a Powerbook it seems to make sense. And if you're a computer guy like me it usually is the computer that is sexier than the 20 year old user in jeans and flip flops plugging in their ipod and typing away on Facebook. Why not rent an Apple Laptop from ICCRents for your next tradeshow or business meeting and see what it feels like to be the one with the cool computer for once.

We all know the feeling of carrying around the not-so-sexy ten pound clunky laptop, the power supply, the bag with all the peripherals and a few cables and spending the obligatory 5 minutes setting it up, turning it on etc. for every meeting and presentation. Give up this hassle and rent a thin, sleek, and efficient Apple laptop from us and leave your regular machine at the office where it belongs. We can work with you to make sure all the software you need is on your machine before we rent it to you. Besides, how cool would it be to be the envy of the board room when you have the only "cool" computer amongst a sea of older office machines. Get an Apple laptop rental today and feel good about your computing - nobody has to know it's a rental.ICCRentshttp://email@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-6103835823967236698.post-74137803419690005502008-07-28T12:46:00.000-07:002008-07-28T13:08:05.996-07:00NEC Accusync - A Better Screen for a Better ExperienceWhen space is limited, a plasma rental may not be the best option. After all, your display options should match and compliment your booth, not completely overwhelm it. You wouldn't want your booth to look like you've spent your entire budget on a single screen, do you? Instead, go for a LCD Display screen, like the NEC Accusync LCD Display. It comes in a variety of different screen sizes, all of which are flat, lightweight, and easy to transport.

Combine the flat panel rentals from ICCRents with the proper stand or wall mount, and you can be sure that your trade show booth or presentation will look absolutely spectacular. The Accusync features a standard resolution of 1280x1024 with over 16 million colors. Impressive? You bet! Weighing in at just over 10 pounds, you can move and shift the Accusync around until you find the perfect place for it.

Call our sales representatives today at 800-245-1094 and ask about the various options available to you for your next LCD Flat Panel Display Rental!ICCRentshttp://email@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-6103835823967236698.post-86282087166321428622008-07-23T14:07:00.000-07:002008-07-23T14:29:09.267-07:00Optimize Your Trade Show/Convention BoothIn a crowded showroom, your primary goal should be to attract as much attention as you can manage - and ideally, more than you can manage just on your own! The crowds are thick, and with everyone vying for their piece of the pie, you'll be hard pressed to find an effective way to turn some heads and draw some eyes, and what better way to do that than with a Plasma Display from Orion, Pioneer, Samsung, or NEC? These vibrant screens show off the best of what today's plasma technologies can offer.

How do you know which Plasma Display is right for your booth? It depends on how much space you have. ICCRents has ways to get the most out of any kind of space; wall mounts if floor room is limited, and high-quality stands if you have so space to fill. But wait! What can you do with just a TV screen? What about sound? Don't worry, we have you covered. Ask our sales representatives about our full package deals for Plasma Rentals: they include the Plasma, speakers, stand, a DVD player, and of course, our great delivery/pickup service for one low price at any convention or trade show! In addition, you'll receive our 24x7 tech support to make sure everything goes over smoothly.

What if your booth is amidst a vast showroom with thousands of other people competing for crowd's attention? What if your neighbors just so happened to rent a plasma, too? You're going to have to step it up with a Video Wall Rental, then. Stacking together our Seamless Plasma Displays, you can create any sort of grid configuration you want, and with a massive screen backing you up, anyone passing by will not be able to help stopping and staring. If they do that, you know you've done your job right!

Too much attention for your booth to handle? Don't miss out on any potential customers or clients because they have to wait! Add a Kiosk rental to the package, too, and keep those waiting occupied while you deal with everyone else. You can even program these Kiosks to answer inquiries, gather contact information, and more! Call us today at 800-245-1094 and ask about our full rental packages!

How can you accomplish this? Using PC or Mac Rentals could become very costly and space-consuming, especially with those towers, and not to mention the wires. It would be a mess, and frankly, it'd probably be a fire hazard to have so many different plugs lying around everywhere. With the tables and chairs you'd have to supply, your booth can become very uncomfortable very quickly. The solution? An Kiosk Rental, of course.

A Kiosk Rental is a space-saving, eye-pleasing piece of technology that puts the internet at your potential clients' fingertips. Each one can be outfitted with Windows XP or Vista, comes with standard specs you would expect from a high end computer, and can be fully customized to your liking. You can have your company logo on the screen, and even on the body of the kiosk if you wanted. Not only does a kiosk save space, it saves you the trouble of wiring everything together, because they are capable of wireless internet access! For even greater customer interaction, you can enable the touchscreen feature.

There are many great options available to you with a Kiosk Rental. Ask about them by calling your friendly ICC representatives at 800-245-1094. Ask about how to customize your next rental!

Service

ICCRents offers light weight laptop rentals and light weight LCD Projector rentals. Here are some hints when it comes to being pain free without losing your web connection.

So thanks to Wi-Fi you can get the Internet anywhere but this freedom can really be a serious pain to the neck and back from carrying around a heavy laptop. Instead, consider a light 6lbs to 8lb laptop rental. Your notebook rentals surface should be about 20 inches away from your torso so that you are not bending forward too much at the back, shoulders and neck, while working.

When renting an LCD Projector, consider a light weight projector, you can adjust the picture and inflict a powerful message across the screen with a bright and clear color correction from ICCRents.

We give tips on how to set up, however, we include customer service tech support within our rental services and 24 hours a day we can set up, delivery, install and pick up your rentals, so you don't have to bend your back or twist your neck over preparing the set up of your equipment.

Maybe you have just got a need for a thousand laptop rentals or maybe you just need one, but before you think that you are set and ready to start your business meeting or conference or special event we suggest you consider these essential presentation packages that go together in a present-full way.

A Laptop, LCD Projector, Screen- With this package you can showcase your seminar and marketing plans with ease in front of a large or small crowd, and have a client meeting anywhere. Especially since the projector can be hung from the ceiling -to the table and angled easily to project against the screen. If you like the laptop rental holding your files, PowerPoint, or acting as your guide during a presentation, then this combination works really well in a corporate environment. Especially when there isn't a wall or already established screen to project on. We suggest getting either a carpeted picture screen or a fast folding projection screen rental. Amazing, how a laptop becomes a presenter rental! It is easy to rent this package through ICCRents.

Plasma Display, Dual Post Stand, Shelf, DVD Player-An Straight Forward Attention grabber is the Plasma TV display rental and Dual Post Stand, this package of presenting is as comfortable as being in your own living room. With a DVD player, sharing your presentation video on your DVD player rental and screen is electrifying. And fun. Especially i you have guest speakers and a large audience. The shelf keeps your presentation professional and orderly, and since ICCRents offers 24 hour customer service and over-night delivery the set up and break down is not a stress on you.

Sound systems, mics, and speakers-Can you hear me? Everyone will with this package of audio-visual including sound systems, microphones and speakers, to loud and clear give your presentation. There are a lot of options at ICCRent's for audio visual rentals. For a real powerful effect consider the 12 Channel Compact Analog Mixer rentals or a crisp, portable speaker rental.

Your presentation and meetings have personality and you got it all from one stop shopping!

You want to get these packages and items together because you can engage in the effortlessness of having one vendor, who has it all, and with one cost effective bill and one phone call.

Oh no! Imagine buying a spacious booth for a tradeshow that you prepared months for only to find that the booth next to you has something hot and trendy that you didn't consider. Twiddling your thumbs it's as if no one cares about your boom-box blasting the latest hits and your stale candy bowl looks really weak. In this predicament immediately you start to really wish you had a Plasma TV Rental in your booth too. Maybe you did consider it for a moment but then strayed because you figured it was too hard to set up. Or maybe ordering technical equipment isn't your forte' and you settled for that really silly poster that is already falling off your booth wall at this very minute.

Or the opposite happened and your booth was so crowded with guests and visitors that you couldn't talk to everyone and felt rude saying "sorry, I will be with you in a minute," and then you missed out on another potential client. If only you could have a tool that could speak for you. Well you can, with a Plasma TV such as Orion from ICCRents, then on the screen you could share information that would entertain your guests while you are giving a personal presentation and sharing the features of your company one- at –a- time- to your important clients. With a Plasma TV standing as an assistant you won't lose the attention or opportunity of anyone. Your logo will be easily read on the screen and a detailed informative photo wall flashing and turning heads will make the tradeshow experience more lucrative and worthwhile for your business.

Also after your meeting you can quickly enter contact information and order numbers on your computer rental or have your guests put in their own information on the Internet Kiosk rental.

Here are some of pointers to help with the success of your exhibit!

Think from the Customer's Point of View– Prospects may know nothing about your company, what should be their first impression? And how can you communicate that in your trade show display graphics with one glance? Marketing 101 tells us that if you don't get the customer's attention in a few seconds, they will probably move on. Some tips to grab attention:

Tradeshow Graphics - digital or printed signage

Audio Visual Rentals and Computer Rentals - affordable for the simplest of exhibits

Giveaways - even candy goes a long way

Keep your marketing message concise

Have a Clear Goal for your attendees– What do you want to accomplish? Do you want the potential client to come to your sales staff for more product info?Do you aim to go straight for the sale? It is best to have clear goals before brainstorming possibilities so that your message will not get buried.

Test It – Run the idea by a sample of people who are not marketing-minded and do not mind being blunt or hurting your feelings. You do not need "yes-men,"; you need people who will be extremely honest and express when they like or do not like something. It is always a good idea to ask for feedback before running with your ideas.

General tips before exhibiting at a trade show:

Choose the size of your booth depending on the budget and minimum amount of space you will need to display your items. Most common sizes are 10x10 and 20x20.

Location of your booth with reference to other larger booth is very important factor in determining the amount of traffic your booth will receive. A Booth at the entrance of the exhibit and close to a major booth is ideal. Start early and make reservation as quickly as you can to get the location you want.

Consider renting a pop-up booth vs. a modular or custom display. This will free up your budget to utilize on attention grabbing equipment and promotional items. Several types of displays are available thru www.iccrents.com.

For significant savings consider other vendors apart from the so called 'Official Vendor' for Laptop Rentals, Plasma TV rental, Computer rentals, Video wall rentals. Outside vendors offer quality equipment, services, and significant savings. ICCRents.com provides equipment to an exclusive group of exhibitors at each event allowing us to provide the highest quality.

Months prior to the event, create a press release and make sure it gets to the press by using a convenient online press release tool such as www.prnewswire.com. Spend time informing existing clients of your upcoming exhibit and use the show as a platform for new products or services.

Promotional items and free give aways will help generate leads for future orders.

Train your show team. Trade shows are distinct sales environments. Very limited time and attention of those that attend require quick qualification and speedy lead generating tactics.

Be Inquisitive by ICCRents

All Computer Rental Companies are not created equal. To avoid an unpleasant surprise, ICCRents is providing a checklist of items to ask your computer rental service provider:

Support: During your computer rental experience what are the options in case of equipment breakdown? Do you provide 24x7 technical support? What is your guaranteed response time? Does your computer rental service include on-site spares at no charge?

Installation: As my computer rental provider, will technicians deliver and install my equipment on-site?

Source: Is your company going to subcontract this project to a local computer rental company; how do I ensure quality their quality of work and level of service?

Damage/Theft: What happens if rented computer is lost or damaged. Do you provide theft or damage insurance to mitigate these costs?

Software: What about the operating system and applications. Do you preinstall any software on laptop rentals, pc rentals, or apple computer rentals?

Outreach: Does your rental service extend nationwide?

One-stop: Can you handle my needs for an lcd projector rental or plasma rental? What other types of equipment and rental services are available?

Turnaround: Can your company provide same day service in case of last minute needs?

ICCRents Computer Rentals & Audio Visual Rentals answers: 24x7 Support, 15 minute response, spares at no charge, professional installation, 90% of rentals handled in-house, software pre-installed, outreach nationwide, one-true-stop for computer rentals and audio visual rentals, and same day order fulfillment.

So we're nearly a month into 2011 and about time I posted my first blog of the year. As the year arrived, one made resolutions to break and, in the process, thoughts of previous resolution failures/successes come back to mind.
One aspect that every year this author makes [apart from maybe competing in the l'Étape], is a list of various web design aspects to learn, handpicked from the maze of new technologies/applications out there. I won't list these as only my dog and I discuss this [the only one that listens]. But yes, 2011 has been no different in that the list contains a variety of new applications to learn and divulge into the working day.
All are new hurdles to conquer. But one thing that I found myself asking over the past six months and again with the turning of the new year, is, will web design as a profession become specialised?
As a web designer, we continually vie with many roles and tasks. What used to be just HTML, CSS and designing static brochure sites for the world wide web [on desktops] has now extended to designing web-enabled solutions for mobile devices, web apps, rich internet application (RIA) interfaces, content management systems (CMS) and much more. Our task is to produce compatible designs that carry a website's brand across all platforms and situations, establishing a company's brand whether it's being viewed on an Android smartphone, iPad or the plain old desktop monitor.
So in 2011 will we need to distribute these duties so that we can specialise and exceed in definite area? In the future, there will be greater configuration of the role of web designer. Right now a web designer can be a jack of all trades, ranging from the traditional website designer, to multimedia design, to apps and mobile apps, to social media producer - all congregated under the same umbrella.
Just as the profession of being a doctor and the field of medicine are branched out into sub-fields such as pharmacology or pediatrics, we may see a similar division in the field of web design, an evolution of this sector.
To me, specialisation roles such as mobile web design, CMS design (such as WordPress/Drupal/Joomla) and RIA design (specifically for social medias) will become a reality and be in demand as we move forward in 2011.

Ancient Road, The Appian Way connected Rome to Brindisi, Apulia, in southeast Italy. It is still used today and it 2024 years old
HH: Let's say the Romans laid it right. Roads were vital to the Roman Empire for trade and mostly for moving their armies quickly.
Appia teritur regina longarum viarum
"The Appian way is the queen of the long roads"
The Appian Way (Latin and Italian: Via Appia) was one of the earliest and strategically most important Roman roads of the ancient republic. It connected Rome to Brindisi, Apulia, in southeast Italy.
This is THE road. Much of it still exists today. If you know your Roman history (or watch the Starz tv show) - this is the road on which Spartacus was crucified - after his revolt, in 71 BC, 6,000 were crucified along the 200-kilometer Via Appia from Rome to Capua.
It has the Temple of Hercules, the catacombs of St Sebastian, and Mausoleum of Gallienus - among others.

The Boston Comic Con is excited to announce its biggest guest list ever for its upcoming show on October 24-25, 2009. These comic book star creators are coming to New England's largest comic convention to meet their fans and sign autographs.
Living legend HERB TRIMPE comes to Boston Comic Con – In the 1960s, during the period known as the Silver Age of Comics, Trimpe was assigned to what became his signature character, the INCREDIBLE HULK – he went on to draw the character for a virtually unbroken run of over eight years. As a MARVEL COMICS mainstay, Herb drew nearly every starring character along with THE TRANSFORMERS, G.I. JOE and SHOGUN WARRIORS. He's most famously credited with the co-creation of the Marvel comic character "WOLVERINE" who later became a breakout star of the X-MEN. Stop by and meet this comic legend appearing both days at the show.
DAVID MACK is a creative dynamo in the comics industry, unleashing ground breaking work on books such as DAREDEVIL and his creator owned KABUKI -With over 12 years spent professionally in the comics industry and more graphic novels than you can count, Mack has grown a large fan base and gained acclaim from all over the world. In addition to his comic work David Mack has also written the treatment for a "KABUKI" film – BCC welcomes this innovative talent.
KHOI PHAM, one of MARVEL COMICS' finest artists; a superstar who is considered to be one of Marvel's "YOUNG GUNS" From X-FACTOR to the INCREDIBLE HERCULES to his whirlwind run on the Secret Invasion flashback chapters of MIGHTY AVENGERS – it is hard to believe that Khoi has had no formal training. Come meet this artist whose career in the comic field may have come quick, but by no means will be a short one. Welcome to Boston, Khoi!

JIM CALAFIORE gained notoriety with Valiant's X-O: MAN-O-WAR and ARMORIES. Following his time with Valiant, Calafiore moved over to MARVEL taking his "metallic" style to IRON MAN. After a long stint on DC's AQUAMAN with writer Peter David, he returned to the "House of Ideas" as the co-penciller on the reality hopping series EXILES.

'The Wolverine' Adds New Japanese Cast Members
Things are looking good for the The Wolverine as ComingSoon.net reports that the project has signed on four new Japanese cast members for Logan's adventure in the East. You probably already know Hugh Jackman will be reprising his role as the hero who is the best at what he does. Joining him will be veteran Japanese actors Hiroyuki Sanada as Shingen and Hal Yamanouchi as Yashida. Newcomers Tao Okamoto and Rila Fukushima will play Wolverine's love interest, Mariko and the expert ninja assassin Yukio respectively.
Sanada is an extremely talented actor and played the lead in the excellent film, The Twilight Samurai, and seems to be an inspired casting choice. His character, Shingen, as fans of Wolverine's comic exploits might be aware, is the father of Mariko and is also the future Silver Samurai. Which could potentially make this even more exciting if the film decides to go in that direction.
This kind of casting could add a lot more legitimacy to the project and help people forget about the woeful X-Men Origins: Wolverine. The new movie will cover the titular character's travels to Japan and his training in the martial arts with the Yashida clan. Not altogether unlike Bruce Wayne's training in Asia during Batman Begins.
The screenplay is based off of Chris Claremont and Frank Miller's legendary run on the character so there's plenty of good reason to expect this to turn out more than okay. Production is reported to begin next month and the film is slated for release on July 26, 2013.

The Bomb - in a good way!! by A Caddy Lover on 01/28/2010. Trim: 1997 Cadillac Seville STS, Owned more than 10 years.
Pros: I've owned my car for 11 years and with normal maintenance this car will last forever. It has 155,000 miles on it. I purchased it used with 23,000 miles. I've replaced the oxygen sensors (3 of 4) and MAF which we only needed help with 1 sensor due to placement on the car. Not being mechanics, we have done alot of our own maintenance. I also go to a reliable and excellent repair shop that is sooo much cheaper than the dealer. This is the safest vechicle I have ever owned. With oil changes as required, this car with last for many more years. Many parts can be purchased through junk yards very inexpensively. LOVE THIS CADDY!!
Cons: Nothing really - love the complete package!!
Overall review: I would undoubtly buy another caddy - the STS/SLS has the sleekest look. People cannot believe that my car is 13 years old. I would definatley recommend anyone to buy one.
Review ID: #545161 Is this review offensive?
Awesome sporty luxury for the1997 Cadillac Seville by Starfish on 08/31/2013. Trim: 1997 Cadillac Seville SLS, Owned 1 year.
Pros: It drives awesome.... Smooth....... But sporty. .. Purrs like a kitten.. Not bad on gas mileage.. I'm in LOVE! I don't think I have ever drove a car that performed so well. Looks awesome.... has plenty of room... Stereo is fabulous!
Cons: Gear shift blocks the lighter which I need to use for a plug in... If you need to use the lighter it is hard to get out because of the gear knob. That's pretty much it for dislikes.
Overall review: Not much more than what I have already stated...... I bought this used for a killer price compared to what it was new. And it was well cared for by the previous owner as they took it in for regular check ups at the Cadillac dealership.

Inside the writers room: Top scifi TV writers reveal tricks of the trade
Six genre-show pros — veterans of shows like Lost, BSG, and Fringe — reveal what happens behind closed doors.
Thanks to @Jen Grisanti for passing on great article
When one poet reads another poet, it is like one explorer studying the maps of a predecessor. If the complete works of a poet are a world map of his own making, then to be influenced by another poet is to have the map of his writing placed over your own. Every time another strong influence is experienced, another map is placed on top of a growing pile of maps, which adds up to a weight of influence. And then, if the poet is lucky enough, he discovers his own way of writing, and at that point all the accumulated maps of his reading become transparencies, through which we look into the palimpsest of the new poet's psyche.
—Billy Collins, in PEN America 15

Back to back contradictory posts in the WoW forums is nothing new. I frequent the mage forums and half the stuff there is either 'OMG MAGES OVERPOWERED!!1!!' or 'MAGES ARE SO WEAK BLIZZARD NERFED US!!!111!'. They also usually are backed up by a single piece of evidence to back up there case such as when they got killed by another class or when they got killed by a mage.

Sooo, with florescent pigments that are three times brighter than conventional colours that make them look super-vibrant under the sun, they'll also glow in the dark under ultra violet lights!
From the top (purple) clockwise: Vivid Violet, Party Pink, Electric Pink, Festive Fuchsia, Rave Red and Tangerine Dream. These cost £12 each.
I think you might actually have to be at a festival to wear these; this is reminding me of the episode in Friends where Ross got his teeth whitened and had to talk behind a piece of bread on his date. Maybe I'm just too old, but I can't imagine what a pair of dancing lips would look like.. which is what would happen if the lights went down and the ultra-violets came on. I mean, you could actually frighten someone.
You've got to admire the technology in these though.. pretty fabulous.
