Identity Theft in the US

Filed under: Uncategorized — thierrysblog7165 @ 9:34 pm

Have you fell victim to identity theft? If you have you’re not alone as identity theft is now the number one crime in the U.S. There is an array of different forms of identity theft, but internet identity theft is by far the biggest problem. With hundreds of thousands of credit card transactions going through the internet on a daily basis and hackers becoming increasingly knowledgeable, it is getting to the point where it is risky to shop online.

There are several ways you can go about preventing identity theft to make sure you don’t add to an already astounding stat. One of the biggest ways people give in to identity theft is by submitting personal information through scam emails. You probably have seen them and have maybe even fell for them, but thousands of scam emails claiming to be from the IRS, banks and Paypal are circulated throughout the internet every day.

Inside these emails, they want you to submit personal information such as a credit card number or your social security number. The purpose of the email is to get you to submit your information to renew your account or check your bank status. All they are doing is trying to get your personal information and use it against you, thus identity theft.

As hard as it is to believe, it is possible for you to make purchases without truly making them. It is vital that you check your credit card statements every month and look for any unidentifiable purchases. If you make any purchases online, there is the potential for your credit card number to be hacked and for the hacker to go on a shopping spree.

Identity theft is a scary crime because it is possible for you to be a victim of it without even realizing it for several months. By that time it may be too hard to find the person. Although you are not held responsible for any of the unauthorized charges, it is a major pain to work everything out. You have to work out your credit report, replace your credit cards and even potentially close and open a new bank account.

Identity theft is just as bad of an inconvenience for the credit card companies as it is for you. Every year credit cards experience losses of 50 billion dollars a year. In an attempt to solve this, many credit card companies are coming out with new software that can better detect identity theft and internet identity theft. Some software now checks for unusual purchases, such as large expenditures in a short amount of time.

While there are various ways you can fall victim to identity theft, internet identity theft has become increasingly troubling over the past few years. With a rise into the number one crime in the U.S., it is vital that you are careful when purchasing or submitting any personal information because you never know if you may be the next victim of identity theft.

PC Hardware: How Ego Can Cost Your Clients

Filed under: Uncategorized — thierrysblog7165 @ 3:20 pm

You’ll find that clients are sometimes just like children. They want to biggest, shiniest toy even though it may not be good for them. Your job as the virtual CIO is to make sure that they spend their money wisely and well.

What Does Your Client Really Need?

Look carefully at clients’ software application requirements before you allow their “emotional” needs to drive tech PC hardware purchases. If a client’s CFO spends most of a typical day crunching numbers in Microsoft Excel spreadsheets and communicating via e-mail in Microsoft Outlook, he or she really has only very basic PC hardware requirements. Thus, there might be a better way to ring greater bottom-line results.

Additionally, these consulting projects will be infinitely more profitable to your consulting firm than the slim profit margin on a high-end, commodity-like desktop PC hardware purchase.

What about Notebook PCs?

Although your clients can get some really useful multimedia features in high-end notebooks in the $4,000 to $5,000 price range, if the CEO of one of your main clients merely wants to access e-mail remotely, you easily could equip him or her with a reliable, high-performance, brand-name notebook for one-third to one-half of that price.

Use Your Knowledge To Help Your Clients

As your clients’ virtual CIO and technology visionary, you have a huge responsibility. Don’t allow clients’ objective judgments and technology budgets to get seduced by superfluous bells and whistles.

When in doubt, ask yourself this basic question:

“If my client took the $5,000 that was about to be spent on the “Rolls Royce” of notebooks and reallocated the amount toward computer consulting services, what kind of an impact on their business could my firm make with a $5,000 budget for a consulting project?”

The San Diego Natural History Museum

Filed under: Uncategorized — thierrysblog7165 @ 5:55 am

The San Diego Natural History Museum has an impressive range in its collection. As of this writing, there’s the fossil section, a section on the big fire in San Diego in 2003, rocks and minerals and a variety of educational programs.

We watched a movie in their movie theater. The current one is on Vikings, but of course the selection changes regularly, so don’t count on this being current information for long. The theater is large and comfortable - almost stadium seating with how the seats are tiered, but the chairs are not so high backed as in other movie theaters. The entire family enjoyed the movie.

The second floor is where the fossils are, and this was the area we spent the most time on. There’s a cave for the kids to play in, and it was hard to get my daughter to leave that area.

The kids will also enjoy joining magnetic parts to make various animals. Depending on age, it can be a bit tricky for them to figure out which part goes where, but since there are only about 5 or 6 parts per animal, it’s not too tough.

My kids weren’t all that impressed by the microscopic fossils that could be examined. A quick look, then they were bored. I found those quite interesting, however, and older children may as well.

If you think back to October 2003 and the gigantic fire we had here in San Diego, you’ll find the section on that fire quite interesting. Brings back a lot of memories, even though my home was not threatened at that time.

In the basement level there is currently an exhibit called “Dinosaurs: Reel and Robotic”. The kids loved this part. No pictures are allowed, so I can’t share anything like that with you. It’s a great exhibit, though. The basement exhibit changes at least once or twice a year. Last year it was robotic bugs. However, the times I have been there it has always been something really interesting for the kids.

The outside of the building is quite interesting. They’ve made changes to the building through the years, so one side is very old fashioned with lots of accents while the other side is quite modern. The building is just huge, but quite a bit of it is not open to the public.

The museum is free for San Diego city and county residents and active duty military the first Tuesday of each month. ID is required. If there are exhibits that require separate admission, those will still require admission.

Stephanie Foster has lived in San Diego since she was 2 years old. She decided to start www.gettoknowsandiego.com/ http://www.gettoknowsandiego.com/ to share her knowledge of the area.

Top Gamers Laptops from Alienware

Filed under: Uncategorized — thierrysblog7165 @ 8:21 pm

Alienware is an american computer hardware company and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Dell computer corporation. Alienware’s most well known series of desktops are the Aurora and Area-51 lines; Alienware also sells considerable-end laptops to which their most well known is the Area-51m.

Functioning under the tagline of build it as if it were your own, Alienware has earned numerous awards for excellence and has become a respected brand name worldwide with systems on hand direct within the United States, Europe, Australia, and New Zealand. That point is that Alienware has confirmed them as a counterculture alternative with high quality, considerable performance hardware that is packaged in a creative way.

Computers

Since high-end game hardware was not widely distributed, the company’s founders formed an OEM that sold pcs with the highest performing hardware and settings according to benchmarks. You receive to buy the peripherals and accessories you require including monitors, games, game controllers, keyboards, mice, and more. They also sell all kinds of computer parts and PC components like monitors, printers, CPUs, memory, graphics cards, motherboards, modems, CD drives, DVD drives, and hard drives, power supplies, video cards, sound cards and wireless networking hardware. Alienware is arguably the sexiest computer manufacturer in the greater OEM area.

Laptops

Alienware has done it again, bringing those who love gaming on their laptops yet another powerhouse in the form of the m7950. After all, these aren’t ordinary word processing laptops but respectable gaming machines. I also recommend this laptop to computer enthusiasts who multi task programs, game occasionally, and surf the net regularly. Regardless of rumours of degraded quality of Alienware’s product quality since their merge with Dell Pc’s, I decided it was still the best way to receive the most quality, highest performing laptop, without crapware ; useless pre-installed programs, etc.

Intel

Intel� Core 2 Duo is built with Advanced power gating (apg) to optimize performance per watt even while being overclocked by shutting down certain parts of the cores. Intel has subsequently started selling x86 chips that are 64 bit, and that use multiple cores. As things currently stand, Dell exclusively uses Intel CPUs in its systems, but Alienware use both Intel and AMD, so what happens next, we have to wait and see.

Graphics

The Alienware M9750 has dual Nvidia 7950GTX graphics cards, just like the Sager NP9260 does, so you are going to receive extreme gaming performance. With the capability of configuring dual Nvidia graphics cards, it is capable of handling a lot. The graphics cards are admirable choices for gamers and those who work with 3D apps. All are PCI Express and have 256 megs of graphics memory.

Alienware computers and Alienware notebooks are ideal for those that play games, use extensive graphics or require high performance systems. The whole reason why gamers go to companies like Alienware is to exclusively can have the best PC gamer product possible.

Benefits Of Drinking Water

Filed under: Uncategorized — thierrysblog7165 @ 7:40 pm

The benefits of drinking water have been proven because studies have shown that around 80% of the world’s population is dehydrated. The chief reason for this condition is over consumption of caffeinated beverages like tea and coffee that make the body lose water. Water is a naturally available liquid that is the most important factor in human survival. Water comprises about 2/3rd of our total body weight. The biggest irony is that most of us don’t know what to drink when we are dehydrated. The answer is simple. Drink water!

The benefits of drinking water is an important factor in the proper health of the body systems. Drinking water has several health benefits. If you have high blood pressure or cancer, drink as much water as possible because water helps to stablized the blood pressure and promote the healing process of cancerous cells. Taking in adequate amounts of water if your are a diabetic is especially important because high blood sugar actually dehydrate the blood cells and causes the blood sugar levels to rise even higher. That’s why when a person come in the hospital in ketoacidosis the first line of action is to start an IV and get the person properly hydrated. Often, people forget to drink water unless they feel very thirsty. To help you to remember to drink water at regular intervals, you can set a timer or buy a watch that is equipped with a timer.

It is better to drink smaller quantities of water more frequently than to drink a lot of water at one time. It is recommended to drink 8 to 12 oz a day and if you have not been drinking water regularly, you should double the recommended amount because your cells are already dehydrate. Make sure that you don’t too much drink water in the morning prior to beginning any physical activity. It is very essential to plan a proper routine for water drinking.

Water is necessary for proper digestion and absorption of essential nutrients like vitamins, minerals, etc. that our body gets from the food we eat. Also, detoxification of the kidneys and liver along with the removal of toxins and wastes from the body happen to be major benefits of drinking water. You should not wait until you are dehydrated to drink water. Drinking water regularly is imperative because dehydration can result in serious illness.

The diverse benefits of drinking water include sustaining energy levels, being mentally and physically alert, removing toxins and wastes from the body and maintaining healthy skin. Drinking water also helps in reducing weight. Since water is a natural appetite suppressant, it helps to cut down overeating and that helps to maintain your proper weight. Doctors often say that, when you feel hungry, your body is actually craving water and not solid food.

Bear in mind that water has its exclusive qualities and other beverages cannot replace the benefits of drinking water. So make sure you drink adequate quantities of water every day to live a healthy and happy life.

Getting the Most Return from Your Sales Time Investment (ROI)

Filed under: Uncategorized — thierrysblog7165 @ 7:39 pm

Let’s face it: you are probably working for far less than you need to. And the sad thing is, you may not even be aware of it or the options you have! As of now, we’re going to change that for you, and possibly share with you not only a thought but a vehicle that can change your financial life.

We are going to show you how to get much more out of your sales time investment.

This probably applies more to the part time, home based business person than the professional…but we have seen, met, and talked with professionals who really are under- valuing their return on time investment. I know.. we are using that time investment word alot all ready. But you MUST consider it just as you do a cash or money investment.

In fact, it’s even more important because once spent or invested, you can’t ever get that particular moment or minute back. It’s gone. You can always invest more money, but you only have so much irreplaceable time. Your sales time investment is one of the most precious ones you can ever make.

As we look at business models, we find on one end, the model that proposes high volume but low profit per sale.

Walmart has certainly shown this works, and many, many, many supermarkets work this same way. It will work if you have the ability to create large volumes of sales. The question is: Do you. If you are a individual sales rep or a small business, just how much of an opportunity do you have to create really large volumes. The appeal to the small business person is to do this by creating some type of a multi-level (also and probably incorrectly referred to as a pyramid) sales organization. In the ideal world, IF you can do this, you can create volume. But this could take years to accomplish, and still never guarantee any income or security because (1)The company behind it could go out of business, be taken over.. or any number of things, (2) The pay plan could change, or (3) The group suddenly dissolve, particularly if or when a heavy hitter or group leader decides to switch to another business and takes his distributors or sales force with him. Did you make a good sales time investment if you chose this model?

Of course you still have the ability to sell the product or service yourself, but (1) Can you do volume, and (2) Is the profit per personal sale worth your time?

The second business model, at the other end of the spectrum, is one that provides a relatively high profit or earning per sale. Sometimes we think of real estate people and car sales people in this category, as well as sales people of specialized capital equipment. But that’s not the majority of us.

The downside here is that if we are thinking about selling a high ticket/high profit item, we have to ask (1) Is there a large market and prospect base? and if we are thinking in terms of an ability for a part time person–possibly a stay at home mom , can this high ticket, high profit product or service be first mastered in terms of the technology, and second, is the customer prospect base readily accessible?

In most cases, the answer to those two questions is no, not available .

But if it is or was, then here’s a fact that can be virtually carved in stone:

IT TAKES NO MORE TIME OR SKILLS TO SELL THE HIGH PROFIT PACKAGE THAN IT DOES TO SELL THE MASS PRODUCT WITH ONLY PENNIES OR DIMES IN PROFIT!

Think about that! This is ALL relative to your sales time investment, and once more: It’s the MOST IMPORTANT investment y ou have to make.

Ask yourself: Am I working for pennies or dimes when instead with the right vehicle I could be working for dollars?

If the answer is yes, and this is so true of particularly home based business entrepreneurs who are involved in sale of nutritional supplements, skin care, fad gadgets, etc., then ask yourself, Am I doing this because I want to earn a nice income, and do it as quickly as possible… or am I kidding myself about that goal and I just want to get products wholesale or discounted and have some fun?

Nothing wrong with that, by the way, if you have an hones assessment of what you are doing and why.

But….. If your goal is in the area of $4000-$5000 a month or more, and you also don’t want to spend all your waking hours working your business , then it’s time to change.

As your article writer, I can tell you this is an article written from the school of hard knocks and one that really had us so emotionally involved with the businesses. Rah rah rah; recognition, pins, etc. Amway. Free Life. Primerica.

Herbal Life. Been there, done that. Made some money? Yes, but far, far, far less than in other options. And that’s just the part time side of things we did to supplement our real job. Made some money, but had no security, and worked for far less than we could have been doing. Plus we just sold our time for money there. No residual income.. but that’s the subject for another article.

We hope this has helped you focus some thinking and our resource block will point you to one tool that will let you change your life.

Tween Demon ‘Spa Day’ Birthday Idea - Your Twelve Year Old Daughter Will Love It!

Filed under: Uncategorized — thierrysblog7165 @ 1:02 pm

Ahh, the tween years. Has it really been 12 years since the little bundle came home from the hospital? New parents think that if they can only make it through potty training and toddler separation anxiety, the rest will be a piece of cake. As a parent who has lived to tell the tale a few times over, I’m here to tell ya, ‘It Ain’t So.’

You think you had it bad when little Susie cut her bangs into some crazy porcupine looking do at the sweet age of 3? Just wait until same darling Susie hits the ripe old age of 12 and begins entering adolescence and starts watching MTV. Overnight your little sweet heart will grow horns and objects will begin moving around your house on their own. Yes, your precious daughter will be possessed by the Tween Demon.

What does all of the above nonsense have to do with your soon-to-be-possessed 12 year old daughter’s birthday party planning? Nothing much really, other than the fact that said demon child will also no longer think that anything you do or suggest or think or wear is a good idea, and will constantly roll her mean little eyes at you to make sure you’re aware of your short-comings. In other words Mom or Dad, don’t bother trying to plan a nice birthday for your kid that involves Barbies, animals, cartoon characters, Princesses or anything else made by Disney, except for perhaps Hillary Duff, but she’s another story now that she’s all grown up, and in my lowly opinion, part of the problem. But don’t quote me.

Now you’re sitting there wondering ‘What in the world am I going to do?’, ‘This bitter woman has scared the heck out of me!’, ‘Will Susie really become a monster overnight?’ Fortunately my friend the answer is ‘maybe.’ So better grin and prepare for the worst just to be safe. On to devising a plan for your daughter’s birthday that will perhaps grant you a minute or two of ‘coolness’ in your child’s eyes, and maybe even warrant an actual smile from her eye-rolling face and ‘oh my god mom’ chanting mouth.

I have an idea. Now this may sound sneaky and a little underhanded, but you could always make up some kind of ‘flyer’ on your computer and anonymously mail it to your kid. She’ll love getting her own mail, and if she takes the bait, she’ll think the birthday party idea was her own. On this little bit of creative advertising you could place info about the perfect birthday party idea for girls ages 10-12.

Something that my now 14 year old daughter fell madly in love with at around age 12 are bath and body products. Showers went on, and still do, forever, causing many uncomfortable moments for the males in the house who weren’t wearing diapers at the time (one bathroom…) She couldn’t get enough of the stuff, and wanted to be taken to the mall to the ‘Bath and Body’ store every weekend. My own facial and spa products began to disappear as the Tween Demon consumed everything that involved baths and masks. I’ll never forget the slumber party where a table of demons sat around with pore strips on their noses, in total awe of their extreme coolness.

Are you following where I’m going with this devious plan to outsmart the Tween Demon? On your flyer you will place all of the products and ideas needed to plan a wonderful ‘Spa Day’ Birthday party, just perfect for 12 year old girls. She’ll go nuts for it and will call her friends to get the plans started.

Now of course there are exceptions to the rule, and not every 12 year old girl will go for the idea of pampering and manicures, but you should know your own kid well enough to determine if ‘Spa Day’ is the theme to use. If not, choose a theme that goes along with the stuff hanging up on her bedroom walls. But let her think it’s her own idea, and then applaud her for her creativity and provide what she needs for a perfect Tween Demon birthday party.

Remember to stay out of the way, but close enough to show you’re supporting her and still around. TD’s are very much like TT’s aka: Terrible Twos, adamantly determined to proclaim their independence, but yet will still look over their shoulder every now and then to make sure you’re there. Have fun with your Demon. They grown up too fast. To find some fun and easy home-made spa recipes girls will love to make at their party, visit Natural You Mineral Makeup.com.

The History Of Audio Books

Filed under: Uncategorized — thierrysblog7165 @ 12:52 pm

It’s really amazing that you can get the exact value listening to an audio book while doing your normal chores as you would reading it.

Certain experts even say information sinks in more when we are not paying direct attention to them.

But when did this audio book phenomenon really start? In other words, what’s the history of audio books?

From all indications, audio books look like a very recent invention, right?

WRONG!

It is very easy to make the assumption that audio books are a recent invention because of the mention of CDs, downloadable digital formats, MP3s, PDAs and other technological jargons each time audio books are discussed. But audio books started a long time ago.

To know how long audio books have been, it is pertinent to understand exactly what audio books are.

Forget about any other jargon you have heard, audio books are simply books that are recorded to be heard, instead of read.

That being the case, such recordings of books in audio formats have been around for a very long time. If you want to be specific, it is safe to say they were first introduced over half a century ago.

It could even be longer, if you include the Library of Congress recordings made especially for the American Foundation for the Blind and distributed free throughout the U.S.

However, according to Robin Whitten, the editor and founder of the only magazine which is dedicated solely to the audio book industry:

Audiofile– www.AudioFileMagazine.com http://www.AudioFileMagazine.com , Caedmon (now a subsidiary of Harper Collins Publishers) can be credited to have started the recordings of literature as far back as 50 years ago.

Going further, he said Caedmon was just a small company way back then in New York, which started recording the audio of great authors and poets of the 1950s. Specifically, he said one of the earliest recordings were by greats such as Dylan Thomas, T.S. Eliot, Fitzgerald and Robert Frost.

What happened then was that they were simply recorded while doing their own works and made as vinyl records.

But these early recordings can arguably pass off for the first collection of audio books ever.

However, the transition of these book recordings into audiocassette tapes didn’t happen until the late 1970s up to the 1980s. From thence, it blossomed until audio books in audiocassette tapes came to be accepted by all and sundry.

For whatever reason however, the audio book phenomenon didn’t really kick off until the 1990s.

And with the transition from audiocassette technology into CDs, more people have become interested in audio books.

With the advent of the Internet and its paraphernalia, audio books have now transited from vinyl records, audiocassette taps and CDs into downloadable digital formats that can be listened to with a desktop computer, laptop computer, PDAs, etc.

If you are still interested in going back in time you can get the original book recordings that started this audio book industry.

Impossible?

Not really.

Some of those early 1950s analog recordings by Caedmon which were performed by the greats of those days can be purchased today on the Internet.

For example, recently I was able to browse the Internet thoroughly and found the original recording of The Lord of the Rings as read by J.R.R. Tolken.

You can find that classic you have always dreamt of in audio book format if you search hard enough on the Internet.

Janet Rusky is an upcoming author who runs one of the best audio book stores on the internet where 7000 titles divided in hundreds of categories are available for immediate download.

AP - A Kodiak man will spend five months in jail for twice attacking bar customers with bear spray. At his sentencing, Daniel Pement read an apology he sent to bar patrons. In it, he says the separate incidents on February 9 and 10 at the B&B Bar were fueled by his alcohol consumption.

Reflections on Mars and Venus

Filed under: Uncategorized — thierrysblog7165 @ 7:59 am

Since it came out in the early 1990s, the relationship book, “Men Are From Mars, Women Are From Venus” has sold million of copies. The book and the author John Gray have since achieved almost cult status worldwide. John Gray has since become the world number 1 relationship author and speaker.

Being a book on relationships of sexes, “Men Are From Mars, Women Are From Venus” had never appeal to a guy like me. To me, it was simply one of those self-help books to take up from the shelves under the ’stressed’ circumstances between your partner/spouse and you and you want solution to your relationship problems. Indeed I was caught in a web of estranged relationship which prompted me to go for it as it was the only alternative cheap solution than finding a psychologist.

Like many others, I have found my life and some of my relationships reflected among the pages. The book was very helpful in clearing up some of the causes of failed romances in my past. When relationships are faced with challenges and problems, many of us will always try to shut ourselves out and think that our problems are unique to us and no one could help us. We would often blame others but ourselves. I am one of them. I wish I could say that I can learn from my mistakes but only time will tell. Ever since I read the book, I began to see things differently and have a more open and forgiving not only to my loved ones but to others. My relationship has benefited tremendously. Frankly speaking, if not for that instant of impulse to get the book, I will be still in my previous state of confusion over my relationship and my attitudes toward life and love.

John Gray explains the psychological differences between men and women particularly on the difference between what they say and what they mean. Being a psychologist, he has manged to use a huge pool of real-life examples from his own therapy sessions as counselor to help us understand and perceive situations from these different view points. In the book, John Gray interestingly called the Men as Martians and Women as Venusians who both speak different languages. They are only remotely connected to English.

The “Martians” Men like to filter life’s information. Gray explains that when faced with problems or challenges, the “Martians” Men like to isolate themselves, chew on them, determine its scope, and try to solve it on my own. They do not others to offer help to them and want others to trust them that they can handle the situation and resolve them rationally. It would seems to be a great insult to “Martians” Men if others try to solve their problems as they think that they are better at solving their own problems than others. The Venusians Women are totally different from “Martians” Men. They like to share their problems with others and people to help them if they encounter problems. Both sexes interpreted same verbal words and body languages differently. Sometimes, the relationship problems are due to misunderstanding and miscommunication between them.

If has offered great insight into the barriers of communication with couples. While it is clear that Men and Women do differ both physically and emotionally, we are bound by love between them. It is love that we see each other as equal and to be same.

Human-Human Relationship particularly love relationship is really a complex issue. If we look beyound love relationship to relationship between countries and states, we would found that like men and women the fights and wars are always due to misunderstanding and communication issues. Understanding how men and women think and then translating their actions not only help us to understand why they are certain unforeseen outcomes in love relationship. It also help us to understand our differences in this global villages called Earth and work towards to share our similarities.

•Unsecured bad credit car loans

In unsecured bad credit car loan, there is no such obligation to place collateral. Instead of collateral the borrower provide certain documents to proof his credibility.

•Bank statement

•Financial status

•Or some other detail as per the requirement.

The person can get finance from banks, financial institutions and dealers. Here banks and financial institutions are known as direct mode of finance on the other hand dealers are known as indirect mode of finance. Dealers are just intermediaries between the financing company and the borrower. But, the borrower must avoid dealing with such intermediaries as it increases the cost of the finance as they includes their profit and also charges very high rate of interest. So, it is recommended that the borrower must avail loan directly from the bank or any financial institution.
