20 Stats Every Modern Marketer Should See
It's All About Revenue
by Jesse Noyes | Tweet this If you were at Eloqua Experience last week, you probably heard a lot of stats cited. It's inevitable. At every event we hear statistics rattled off as speakers and attendees attempt to quantify the world around them. It's for good reason. Data is simply exploding as social, mobile and apps change the way we work, collaborate and deliver marketing campaigns. As marketers, we need to be able to represent these changes in an easily understandable way. That's probably why I heard many requests for access to many of the stats cited at Eloqua Experience.

5 Major Challenges Marketers Face (And How to Solve Them)

Canister filter,Fluval 405?
I guess I put to much faith in my lps to at least get me started in the right direction. Anyway,is there anyway I can use the canister filter in conjugation with a protein skimmer for a fish,live rock,coral tank and what media should I use if I can even use it.
You can still use it for flow, and to suck up bits of crap. You will only need some type of mechanical filtration media, but you need to clean it often, and you shoule replace it with new media often too. Oh and buy the way its not lps. Lps is large polyp stony coral. I belive you meen lf, local fish store.
Fill it only with sponges and keep it sparkly clean. You'll tire of this and sell the filter.

hello, the third one is "Codecv", see this dump from about:support of an affexted user http://pastebin.com/XWfB4Cye (sorry, i've misspelled that in the kb article i've written, the correction has not yet been approved). it seems to have randomly generated IDs - here are some examples: firstname.lastname@example.com, firstname.lastname@example.com, firstname.lastname@example.com, email@example.com
most part of the string before the @-sign always seems to match the string afterwards besides the last 1-2 characters
Awesome. Let's blocklist ([0-9a-f]+)[0-9a-f]@\1[0-9a-f]\.info
Wonder if Unfocused is up for another blocklist hack...
Actually, I kind of suspect that those two numbers are timestamps, so maybe ([0-9a-f]+)[0-9a-f]{1}@\1[0-9a-f]{2}\.info
Created attachment 676287 [details]
List of ids following the email@example.com pattern

Hrm. There are a bunch of those that differ by as many as 5 trailing digits. We may as well block [0-9a-f]+@[0-9a-f]+.info though I suppose it won't be long before they start using another pattern.

hello jorge, i've noticed that you're doing quite a clean up of malicious addons after bug 688895.
could you also take care of the bflix stuff on this occasion, which seems to be quite crashy & have a look in which different variants it is occuring ...
18% (473/2678) vs. 0% (875/180707) firstname.lastname@example.com
7% (178/2678) vs. 0% (355/180707) firstname.lastname@example.com
it seems to be from the same creators as the codec addons or at least follow the same patterns because the websites apparently used for the original distribution look quite similar: http://thebflix.com/ & http://allpremiumsoft.com/
Please file a separate bug to look into this. Thanks.
thanks, i've filed bug 806802 for that one.
the codec extensions also run under the firstname.lastname@example.com pattern

Highest Paying Commission Products/Websites?
Another question I have is whether the high paying products, such as TV's, Laptops, Phones, Cameras, does anyone know the commission % on these kind of products?
Thanks for the replies
1. Choose a niche (That must be a niche that i'm interested and i know that there are a lot of people willing to pay money for that niche), Then choose a product. (Here i choose from CB) 2. Sign Up Getresponse (I want a Long term fight, so this is a must)
A discussion with a WF member gave me this idea. How long from the time you started until you guys made your very first cent? It can be from an affiliate commission, or an actual product sale, or ad revenue. It doesn't even matter if it's 2 cents or 2 thousand dollars, as long as its actual measurable monetary results. This is for the benefit of newbies who are on the fence or who may just be starting out.

Very nice. Underpropping would more likely kill the engine. Over rev one and it could go boom.ORIGINAL: Guijs
Acdii, do you mean it will kill the engine, or, it will be "very nice"?Just to be sure!
Ernie Misner, I bought the JTEC muffler just to add a better look to my scale plane! Not sure how much it will help on performance. But I will try to find out!
I'm thinking its the other way around, a 15x9 vs 14x10 would be about the same load. The lower pitch would give higher revs.ahicks - I wasn't commenting on the performance of the three-blade prop, just that the engine would not be underpropped. The 14x9 prop would probably produce the same load as a 15x10. But agreed - everything I've read says that three-blade props are not as effecient (due to increased turbulence?) as a two blade.
As far as fine vs coarse pitch, Im still confuzzled on that. Iam not sure which does what for what in flight, Coarse for take off and power, fine for cruising and economy? Which works best for speed, which gets you going faster? eh, all I know is, the bigger the prop and higher the pitch, the more load it produces on the motor.
On my Kadet LT40, I had wrecked it on a landing where a cross wind caught the wing and flippped it. My bad, was coming in too slow. ANyhow, I had busted the motor ount and could not find a replacement SIG one, but had a Magnum 52, same size as the OS that was on it, and it was on a SIGmount. Iput it on the Kadet after Irepaired it, and got it running and the servo trimmed for it. Tuned it and flew it and noticed it wasn't flying as well as with the OS, it seemed a little slow. Ilanded it and was looking through my props for a 12x6, Ithought I had an 11x7 on it, all I found was my wood 12x8 and an 11x7. Igrabbed the props, went to the plane and discovered I forgot to swap out the prop from the other plane, it was a 12x6. Iput the 11x7 on and took off and bingo, flying like it did with the OS. Larger prop, lower pitch = slower flight, smaller prop, higher pitch= faster flight. <- see confused.

An issue that many people with Parkinson's disease (PD) cope with is visual disturbances such as blurred vision. This is an aspect of PD that deserves more attention because it contributes to falls, reading difficulties and potentially to safety issues when driving. If you are having difficulty seeing clearly, it is harder for you to walk safely, read (and comprehend) quickly and drive safely -- not to mention half a dozen other things like use a computer or go grocery shopping.

One major issue associated with these visual disturbances is freezing of gait. Many persons with PD report that this freezing occurs when they are having trouble seeing what is in front of them.

What kinds of visual problems occur in Parkinson's Disease?

The main ones are:

 Blurred vision. This causes you to squint and to re-focus your eyes too often.

 Photophobia. Bright light is often experienced as harsh and painful.

 Asthenopia. This is weakness or fatigue of the eyes, usually accompanied by headache.

Trouble reading.

 Double vision. Although less common than the above symptoms, seeing double happens more frequently among PD patients than among the general population.

 Visual hallucinations. About one-third of persons with PD will experience varying types of visual hallucinations. Usually the hallucinations occur in peripheral vision ("I just saw an animal run past me.") Visual hallucinations are often linked to medication dosage levels or to sleep disorders of PD.

 Difficulty estimating spatial relations. Persons with PD have a little more difficulty with spatial relationships than do other persons.

 Abnormalities of color perception. This happens especially in the blue-green axis, and of visual contrast sensitivity (VCS) have also been well-documented in PD patients.

If you are experiencing any of these sorts of visual problems, ask your doctor for a referral to an eye specialist like an ophthalmologist or optometrist. These specialists can recommend treatment programs that can improve your vision and that can help you devise strategies for dealing with visual problems. Before taking any medications, the specialist might recommend you speak to your PD doctor to make sure that no problems will arise from the new medicine.

Nehemiah Program
Loan Assistance Programs Canceled in 2008
Elimination of Non Profit Down Payment Assistance: On July 30, 2008, President Bush signed the Housing and Economic Recovery Act of 2008 which prohibits seller-funded DPA (Down Payment Assistance) for loans backed by the Federal Housing Administration. Prior to this bill, the seller could contribute up to 6% to the buyer to cover either a down payment or closing costs on an FHA loan. The changes took effect on Oct. 1, 2008. We provide this information for reference only. These grants are no longer available.
NEW: Down Payment Assistance Programs for 2017
The Nehemiah Program has helped over a quarter of a million Americans purchase homes. Unlike some down payment assistance programs, Nehemiah offers down payment help to anyone who qualifies for an approved FHA loan. There are no limits on income or assets, but buyers must have an FHA loan or be pre-approved for an FHA mortgage. The Nehemiah program offers:
- Up to 6% of the final contract sales price for down payment and/or closing costs.
- Available for first-time and repeat homebuyers.
- Approved for new construction and resale homes.
- No geographical restrictions.
As with most down payment assistance programs, these funds are not available for "second mortgage" or home equity loans; Nehemiah is intended to help people buy a new home. The process for applying for Nehemiah is similar to most other down payment assistance programs:
- Find a house and make the seller an offer.
- When the offer is approved, contact your loan officer.
- Tell your realtor you want to buy the home using the Nehemiah program.
- Your loan officer applies to the Nehemiah program on your behalf.
- Nehemiah down payment assistance will be sent before you close on the home.
Down payment assistance programs generally require the seller to pay a fee to participate. This fee is considered a payment for services rendered and not a tax-deductible charitable contribution.
Since this program is no longer available, we recommend that you get pre-approved for a low down payment FHA home loan.
Discontinued Down Payment Grant Programs:
FHA Loan Articles and Mortgage News
Are you looking for a home to purchase with an FHA mortgage? Issues new to some first-time borrowers include FHA loan limits, and the maximum loan amount you can apply for. FHA home loans feature a maximum loan amount, which may vary.
Can an FHA loan applicant use current overtime income or bonus payments to help qualify for a mortgage? Do these payments count towards overall monthly or annual income? This can be a tricky question to answer because not all overtime or bonus payments are alike.
The interest rate on your FHA mortgage is one of the most important factors when considering the long-term cost of your home loan. Do you know the facts about FHA mortgages and the interest rates on them?
One common misunderstanding about FHA loans and FHA refinance loans has to do with the difference between FHA loan minimum standards and the standards of a specific financial institution. The FHA loan rulebook is often not the final word on certain issues.
The updated FHA home loan rulebook instructs your lender on how to process FHA loan applications and how the lender should treat specific circumstances that can affect a borrower's chances for FHA loan approval.

HP Updates 3PAR StoreServ All-Flash Array Lineup
These are very fast, at least on the drawing board. The new HP 3PAR StoreServ Storage 20000 enterprise flash family claims 3.2 million IOPS.HP has updated its 3PAR StoreServ Storage lineup by, among other things, adding a new class of massively scalable flash arrays and flash-optimized data services to accelerate IT-as-a-Service consolidation and hybrid IT initiatives. Oh yes, and the company is having a sale of sorts (amounting to 25 percent off) on all-flash arrays. Price competition wasn't much of a factor until recently; now, with competition heating up in all enterprise sectors, it's very much a key factor in closing a deal. To accelerate transformation to the all-flash data center, HP is lowering the cost of all-flash storage to $1.50 per usable gigabyte and introducing ultra-dense and scalable flash systems. These are very fast, at least on the drawing board. The new HP 3PAR StoreServ Storage 20000 enterprise flash family claims 3.2 million IOPS at sub-millisecond latency and consumes 85 percent less data center space than traditional high-end arrays, the company claims.
To support mission-critical workloads and enable greater agility, HP is unveiling new flash-optimized software for end-to-end availability and non-disruptive workload balancing across the data center. Combined with HP flash optimization and hardware-accelerated data compaction that increases usable capacity by 75 percent, these new 3.84TB drives bring down the cost of all-flash storage to approaching that of 10K RPM SAS hard disk drives, the company said.

Nelson Rosario, who over the spring seemed to figure out how to use his size and leaping ability, seems poised for a breakout season.
With UCLA preparing to open fall camp on August 8, we will break down the depth charts at each position in order to look at how the Bruins stack up heading into this season. We've previously looked at quarterbacks, the defensive line, the offensive line, the running backs and the linebackers. Now let's take a look at the receivers.
Current depth chart:
Nelson Rosario (Sr., 6-5, 219)
Randall Carroll (Jr., 5-10, 189) OR
Jerry Johnson (Jr., 6-3, 219)
Shaquelle Evans (So., 6-1, 196)
Taylor Embree (Sr., 6-3, 207)
Josh Smith (Sr., 6-1, 213) OR
Ricky Marvray (So., 5-11, 187)
Cory Harkey (Sr., 6-4, 270)
Joseph Fauria (Jr., 6-8, 252)
John Young (Fr., 6-4, 246)
The wide receivers unit was the most perplexing and disappointing group in a perplexing and disappointing 2010 season.
Loaded with speed, athleticism and the physical tools to make this among the top receiving corps in the conference, these players simply underachieved. There were flashes -- Randall Carroll and Josh Smith breaking big plays against Arizona, and Taylor Embree's 105-yard game against Arizona State -- but they were few and far between.
That 105-yard game for Embree was the only 100-yard receiving game by a Bruin all season. Only Embree and Nelson Rosario had more than six catches in a game. Far more often, you'd see a UCLA receiver dropping a pass in a key situation as stone hands became the norm in 2010.
As a result, UCLA's passing attack finished a dreadful 116th out of 120 Football Bowl Subdivision teams, finishing ahead of only Navy, Air Force, Georgia Tech and Army -- all option-based teams. Much of the blame falls on inconsistent quarterback play and poor pass protection up front, but the receivers were certainly part of the problem.
New offensive coordinator Mike Johnson, who earned his chops as a wide receivers coach in the NFL, will take over command of this group in an effort to get more out of it. He inherits a unit that returns mostly intact. Morrell Presley and Christian Ramirez, both F-backs who combined for eight receptions, are the only players who caught passes last season who won't be back.
The breakout candidate here is Rosario, an outside player who over the spring seemed to figure out how to use his size advantage and leaping ability (he's a high jumper and long jumper on UCLA's track team). He made several aggressive leaps in the corners during the spring, including one in the spring scrimmage.
He sat out a good portion of last season with a high ankle sprain, but came back with 14 catches for 195 yards in the last two games. He was second on the team with 29 receptions even though he missed all of three games and most of two others with his injury.
Embree is the steady, if not flashy, stalwart. He's been the team's leading receiver the last two seasons and is a possession guy with good size. He has good instincts for reading defenses and finding open space, but he became one of the faces of the drop problems after a couple of crucial dropped passes.
Carroll and Smith are the speedy big-play threats. Carroll, a sprinter on UCLA's track team, had touchdowns of 68 and 45 yards last season and led the team by averaging 16.1 yards per catch. He's taken time to develop from a sprinter into a true receiver, but has begun to show an understanding of the position and in the spring began to display a maturity that had been missing early in his career.
Smith showed his playmaking ability with a 45-yard run on a reverse in the season opener against Kansas State and a 49-yard touchdown against Arizona, but couldn't seem to find the consistency to make a regular impact and seemed to find himself in the doghouse because of lapses in concentration.
Ricky Marvray is the rising star of the group. He's a tenacious competitor who makes up for his lack of size with his heart. He sometimes lets his emotions get the best of him, however, as he drew a couple of unsportsmanlike conduct penalties last season, but he also tied for the team lead with two touchdown receptions and his 20 receptions as a redshirt freshman ranked third.
Jerry Johnson and Shaquelle Evans are promising receivers. Johnson seemed to be a receiver on the rise in the middle of last season before he broke his ankle against Arizona and had to miss the last four games.
Evans, a transfer from Notre Dame, had shoulder surgery last season and hasn't yet been able to prove himself to the UCLA coaches. He could be one to watch in camp, however, as he was a high-level recruit out of Inglewood High in 2009.
At tight end, Cory Harkey returns after starting all 12 games last season. He is the best blocking tight end on the team with enough size to play as a sixth offensive lineman, but his hands are suspect as he dropped numerous catchable balls last season.
Joe Fauria is Harkey's mirror. He's the top receiving tight end on the team, but his blocking ability is a work in progress. Still, the tallest player on the team has the height to cause major matchup problems in the red zone and when he finally got healthy last year -- a nagging groin injury limited him early on -- he hauled in touchdowns catches in each of the last two games.
John Young could make a push for playing time if he can remain healthy. He missed last season after shoulder surgery and aggravated the injury in spring and missed much of spring camp.

XLPharmacy.com is very hard to reach, this I will agree. In fact they are almost impossible to do business with online because so many others are trying to break into their business.

A real surprise
on 12/14/2012
This movie starring Benjamin Bratt has something for lovers of action, drama, and suspense movies. Based on a short story by Hemingway, the screenplay is written (updated and improved) by one of his main friends and biographers A.E. Hotchner. This is a rare case where the movie is actually much better than the literature it is based on. The basic plot hook is two couples working together to uncover the treasure on a recently sunken ship.

Episode 1′s topics include: designing streets for people vs. designing them for traffic movement, a brief introduction to Fort Worth's Near Southside revitalization district, how the Internet and social media is affecting urban revitalization, the polycentric nature of cities, lack of transportation choice, building lighting, demand-driven urbanism vs. supply-driven urbanism, Deconstructivism, the revitalization of Bilbao, Woody Allen, the Enlightenment, and inappropriate Winston Churchill quotes.
Kevin has podcasted before so for me I suppose it was about getting the hang of it. We had been getting together about once a month over beers to talk about the very same things so we decided to start recording and putting those convos on blast, y'all. Though we both tangent trip by nature, the wide variety of topics listed above was surely caffeine induced, as the show was recorded at Avoca Coffee in the Near Southside area of Fort Worth. Next time, it will be over beers, meaning it may be more jovial and/or sanguine.

One tech company is making big moves on an otherwise quiet Friday. Let's look at the five technology stocks to watch:
Angie's List. Shares of the business reviews website surged 7.4% in pre-market trading after receiving a stock upgrade to "buy" from Bank of America/Merrill Lynch, CNBC reports. The boost is a small rebound from an otherwise down year for Angie's List. One year ago today, the company's shares traded above $23. As of Thursday's close, they've plunged to $10.
Verizon. The telecommunication giant's battle with Netflix heats up, with the company sending a cease-and-desist letter to the streaming media company asking them to take down a message blaming Verizon for slow service. The back-and-forth follows a deal between the two companies to speed up Netflix streaming.
Twitter. Shares of the social network are up 0.94% after the company acquired mobile ad startup Namo Media for an undisclosed amount. Research firm eMarketer forecasts mobile ad spending to jump 82% this year.
LinkedIn. The professional social network is upgrading its search engine, reports GigaOM. The overhaul will result in more personalized search results, the company says.
Barnes & Noble. The bookseller is teaming up with electronics giant Samsung to develop Nook tablets, the Associated Press reports. The company says it will turn its focus to improving software for its e-reader.

After Tuesday's World Cup draw produced several potentially inflammatory ties involving the former component parts of Yugoslavia and Czechoslovakia Uefa did consider keeping the British teams apart in tomorrow afternoon's draw for the final stages of the European Championships.
However, yesterday they decided against a "fix". England and Scotland, bound together by a single government since 1707, free from internecine war since 1746, and separate entities only in sporting matters, may play each other in the group stages after all. The Wembley goalposts will be trembling already.
When it comes to presenting the draw from Birmingham's International Convention Centre England and Scotland will definitely be together. With both main terrestrial channels televising events live duties will be shared by Sue Barker, of the BBC and England, and Bob Wilson, of ITV and Scotland.
The draw will be made, not by such celebrities as Denis Law or Pele, but by the instantly recognisable figures of Gerhard Aigner and Lennart Johansson, the general secretary and president of Uefa. The pair have, boast Uefa, jointly officiated at more than 100 draws. No excuse for nerves then.
Since only four teams are seeded, England, Denmark, Spain and Germany, the draw ought to be simple. But then it would be over too quickly - there are 1,500 guests, 600 journalists and an estimated 400 million television viewers to impress. So a complicated three-stage system of balls and bowls has been devised.
It is so cunning that very few people at Euro '96 seem able to explain it but it may work something like this. First the 12 unseeded teams will be drawn and placed, one by one, in groups one to four, so the first, fifth and ninth teams drawn will be in group one, the second, sixth and 10th in group two, and so on.
Then the seeds will be drawn and placed in groups. Whichever group England are in will be redesignated A (Wembley and Villa Park). The other groups will have their letter drawn from yet another bowl. B is Leeds and Newcastle, C is Old Trafford and Anfield, D is Hillsborough and the City Ground.

My first lifer in Sweden for some time, Siberian accentor, after missing a whole month of the huge European influx this autumn I bag a late one in Småland just up the road. I have been waiting for this one since I arrived in Sweden as it was the most likely vagrant to stray onto my list here. The remaining five potential species on the Swedish list that would be world ticks are so cosmically rare that I doubt I will live to see one of them in Sweden but you never know... My long-distance twitching days are pretty much over!

the tau of mothing
Ed Parnell came over for the weekend recently from Wymondham in my old home county of Norfolk and I promised him Aglia tau, one of two species of Saturnid here in BK. We only had to wait half an hour before this guy came blundering to our light trap in the dark beech woods above Klarningen. What a beauty.

Hear what NOB Taniguchi thinks of the car's handling.

Mickey, Minnie, Donald, Goofy, Pluto and 135 of their friends gathered at Magic Kingdom Park and formed the familiar shape of a hashtag. The 140 characters then invited you and your family to "Rock Your Disney Side" during a 24-hour party to kick off summer.
At this year's All-Night Extravaganza, everyone is being invited to show their "Disney Side" by dressing as a favorite Disney hero or villain. The Magic Kingdom Park in Florida and Disneyland park and Disney California Adventure park in California will be filled with Disney heroes and villains from 6 a.m., May 23 to 6 a.m., May 24, 2014, local time.
The celebration on both coasts will feature a cavalcade of events showcasing the good-vs.-evil of classic Disney stories including character meet-and-greets throughout the parks, special entertainment, event merchandise and special food and beverage offerings.

Getzlaf, Ryan want to stay part of Ducks' coreJanuary 5th, 2012, 9:40 pm by Eric Stephens, Staff writer
ANAHEIM -- Ryan Getzlaf and Bobby Ryan have been part of the problem. Both also want to be part of the solution.
A day after their boss essentially called out his core players when talking about the Ducks' deplorable season, Getzlaf and Ryan said they want to remain part of that core going forward while trade rumors continue to surround them with the team just 10-22-6 and sitting next-to-last in the NHL with 26 points.
Ducks general manager Bob Murray raised eyebrows throughout the hockey world by indicating that Teemu Selanne and Saku Koivu, who both have no-trade clauses, are the only players he has no interest in dealing.
Speaking before the Ducks' 3-1 loss to San Jose on Wednesday night, Murray said, "I still believe we have some core players. Now whether we have to change a few core players, so be it. They're deciding who's staying and who's not staying at this point."
Murray's comments at face value seemed to indicate that not only Getzlaf and Ryan could be up for discussion if they don't improve soon but linemate and reigning Hart Trophy winner Corey Perry, goalie Jonas Hiller and even defenseman Cam Fowler aren't necessarily off limits.Read the rest of this entry »

What a shame, I had to remove my child from kinder room. felt sorry for other kids too, lack of structure, not a stimulating learning environment at all. Have heard similar stories from many parents, nor the best it s supposed to be. a few good carers but not good on health, inclusion and bullying!!! the children are really being let down here.

Disappointing. Arrogant approach by management and leaders. Let down the kids who needed support, little to no kinder programming. Lack of leadership, and communication. Little knowledge and bad handling of social development issues including bullying.

As a an early childhood educator who has seen centres all over melbourne, I would recommend parents steer clear of kids company. Low quality care, disrespect for parents and high staff turnover make for a poor environment for everybody.

She was so cold and uninterested , I wouldv'e asked for my money back. It's a wonder he was still able to cum
I am sure he didn't pay her much and sabotaged the condom.
Well, OF COURSE a whore who looks that good is going to be fucked witho a condom! I would say at least 90% of the guys I go with don't use them.
Business as usual ...
Yeah baby. Do it. Your pussy is made to get spunked by many different men. Prostitution is a perfect way for a young girl to make money. It's easy and it's natural and getting paid for sex is nothing to be ashamed for. Guys need to fuck around and they're wiling to pay you a good price. So be proud of what you do. It's good and normal.

About fifteen years ago, a venture capitalist told me "I only ask myself three questions before I invest: "Do I want to be in this business?" With this team? At this time?"
Those phrases have stayed with me, and I've shared them with countless entrepreneurs over the years. Notice what isn't said: anything about the product or service.
Do I want to be in this business?
That should tell you that it's never about the product or service, but about the kind of business that can be created around it. Good businesses are often created around mediocre products. Microsoft, for example, never has the best product but has an incredibly profitable business.
And some products, while they may be good ideas, will never result in an investable business. We had one woman in our entrepreneurship class who had designed a circular planter for gardens. It was designed to fit around trees. By running the numbers, we realized that while her idea and design were good, her market was limited and she might not be able to support herself continuously (much less pay back an investor) with this particular product.
Other things that make a bad business include too many regulatory hurdles, illegalities, and inability to secure patents, licenses, or materials.
Do I want to be in business with this team?
Okay, I like the potential for this business, but are these the people to get it done? This is probably the most important question an investor asks himself. Sometimes a team is too inexperienced, lacks domain expertise, or isn't fully committed.
I see entrepreneurs every day who are trying to do it all themselves. They don't have a team, and they think it's because they don't have money. Quite the opposite; they don't have funding because, among other things, they don't have a team. A single founder is a bad bet: certainly she is weak in some aspects of running the business, and there's no one else with different strengths. In addition, a one-man team doesn't pass the "bus test": if the founder got hit by a bus, could the business continue?
The best entrepreneurs generate so much enthusiasm for their ideas that other people jump on just for the experience or for shares in the company. If they won't, they're probably not the right people to work in a startup. People in a startup are not in it for the money in the short term. And the founder can't raise money just to pay himself a salary.
Do I want to be in this business at this time?
Is this the first company in the space (bad because you will have to educate the market and that's expensive) or the 50th (bad because the space is over-saturated?)
In markets, timing is everything. Too early and you have to ride the hype cycle up and down before you can get decent traction. Too late and there's not enough market left to capture.
Think about that when you're trying to build a business. Are you attractive enough as a business opportunity, with a strong team, coming to market at the right time? If you are, you will get funded.

Driverless Irony and Maybe Car Drone Drivers Coming Soon
