BIZ THOUGHT
___________________
I Can't Believe We Made It!
According to today's regulators and bureaucrats, those of us who
were kids in the 30's, 40's, 50's, 60's, 70's or even the early
80's, probably shouldn't have survived.
Our baby cribs were covered with bright colored lead-based paint.
We had no childproof lids or locks on medicine bottles, doors, or
cabinets, and when we rode our bikes, we had no helmets. Not to
mention the risks we took hitchhiking.
As children, we would ride in cars with no seat belts or air
bags. Riding in the back of a pickup truck on a warm day was
always a special treat.
We drank water from the garden hose and not from a bottle.
Horrors! We ate cupcakes, bread and butter, and drank soda pop
with sugar in it, but we were never overweight because we were
always outside playing.
We shared one soft drink with four friends, from one bottle, and
no one actually died from this.
We would spend hours building our go-carts out of scraps and then
rode down the hill, only to find out we forgot the brakes. After
running into the bushes a few times, we learned to solve the
problem. We would leave home in the morning and play all day, as
long as we were back when the street lights came on. No one was
able to reach us all day. No cell phones. Unthinkable!
We did not have Playstations, Nintendo 64, X-Boxes, no video
games at all, no 99 channels on cable, video tape movies,
surround sound, personal cell phones, personal computers, or
Internet chat rooms. We had friends! We went outside and found
them.
We played dodge ball, and sometimes, the ball would really hurt.
We fell out of trees, got cut and broke bones and teeth, and
there were no lawsuits from these accidents. They were accidents.
No one was to blame but us. Remember accidents?
We had fights and punched each other and got black and blue and
learned to get over it.
We made up games with sticks and tennis balls and, although we
were told it would happen, we did not put out any eyes.
We rode bikes or walked to a friend's home and knocked on the
door, or rang the bell or just walked in and talked to them.
Little League had tryouts and not everyone made the team. Those
who didn't had to learn to deal with disappointment. Some
students weren't as smart as others, so they failed a grade and
were held back to repeat the same grade. Horrors! Tests were
not adjusted for any reason.
Our actions were our own. Consequences were expected.
The idea of parents bailing us out if we got in trouble in
school or broke a law was unheard of. They actually sided with
the school or the law. Imagine that!
This generation has produced some of the best risk-takers,
problem solvers, and inventors, ever. We had freedom, failure,
success, and responsibility --- and we learned how to deal with
it.
And you're one of them! Congratulations.
Please pass this on to others who have had the luck to grow up as
kids before lawyers and government regulated our lives for our
own good !!!

Hello Exchangers,
A "Warm Welcome" to all our new subscribers.
After a nightmarish week, our emails are finally back
on track. So, if for some reason, you emailed us
and we did not get back to you, it was because
of the problems we had receiving and sending email.
It seems like this week is a remembrance week.
Maybe because Wednesday's article was about
Looking forward and Looking back. And today's
Biz Thought is about how far we have come over
the years. It is always good to look at what was
and then look at what is, and what can be. It kind
of keeps our reality in check. As the saying goes,
"Never close the door behind you. Keep it open
just a crack. Take a peek every now and then
for fond remembrance and lessons learned.
Never walk back through that door, or history is bound
to repeat itself." This thought is not unknown, or written
by some famous person. Just little ole me! And I use
it All The Time!
Don't forget:
We Lowered Our Prices
Get Solo a*ds for $90 or less
Get Sponsor a*ds for $40 or less
Get Classified a*ds for $10 or less
LIMITED TIME ONLY....

YOU HAVE A GREAT WEEKEND!

Remember, It's the WORLD Wide Web!
by Marcia Yudkin
«¤»¥«¤»§«¤»¥«¤»§«¤»¥«¤»§«¤»¥«¤»§«¤»¥«¤»§«¤
Almost always, online publicity means global exposure,
whether your business is based in Peoria, Illinois, Perth,
Australia, or Paris, France. When your marketing or
publicity copy will appear on the Internet, you need to take
conscious steps to ensure that your news makes sense to
readers from far corners of the world. In news releases or
your online media center, here's how to clue in distant
media people and avoid international gaffes.
First, ground your material geographically. People outside
your region won't necessarily know what state -- and country
-- "Hampshire County" is in unless you say so. Likewise, you
may think that the expression "Bay Area" unambiguously
refers to the San Francisco Bay Area in California, but
Tampa Bay, Florida also uses that expression. Perhaps the
most geographically useless word you could use in a headline
would be "local." Name the city and state instead.
Second, avoid gratuitous and unexplained references to
political figures and national culture. During the tenure of
President Bill Clinton, many Americans referred to his wife
as simply "Hillary," with no last name. This was bound to
confuse people in other parts of the world. Similarly, those
outside the U.S. wouldn't know the expression, "Would it
play in Peoria?" Professional journalists always provide
unobtrusive background, full names for everyone mentioned
and brief explanations of laws referred to, and you should
follow suit.
Third, take great care with relative terms, such as
"overseas" or "foreign." To Europeans, the U.S. is overseas.
To Asians, the dollar is foreign currency. Similarly,
remember that acronyms everyone in your country knows, such
as "VAT" or "EPA," may need to be spelled out for the
benefit of those living elsewhere.
Fourth, watch out for tricky measurement terms. I once
mistakenly corrected the word "tonnes" in the publicity
materials of a client from Canada, thinking that the writer
meant an English ton of 2,000 pounds. In fact, a "tonne" is
a metric ton, equivalent to 2,205 pounds in the English
system. Cumbersome as this may look, it would be helpful to
indicate this as "75 tonnes (metric tons)." Consider adding
English or metric conversions for some of the lesser known
measurement terms, such as hectares to acres or vice versa.
Beware also of "billion," which in the U.S. means a thousand
million, while in Great Britain it can mean a million
million.
Fifth, add your country code to the beginning of telephone
or fax numbers on a news release or at your Web site. A
reporter on deadline from around the world shouldn't have to
figure out whether or not (1) or some other country code has
to be added to your Saskatchewan telephone number.
All of this can be accomplished without making your copy
clunky. Use common sense in deciding how many definitions or
glosses to add. Just as you'd inject explanations for dinner
guests from afar when the conversation turned to local
sports or politics, add inconspicuous verbal asides to
clarify your references in material that will be accessible
to readers around the world.

"How To Make a Screen Capture"
======================
Okay, you've seen screen captures. You know, those windows
pictures we use so extensively in our Newbie Club Ebooks and
Website tutorials.
How is this accomplished?
Ctrl + Print Screen is the key
This is where the Print Screen key on your keyboard comes in
handy. It may be called PrntScn on your keyboard, or some
other variant. But it's purpose is to make a copy of whatever
is on your screen. It copies the info to the Windows clipboard.
Then you can paste into another document that will accept it,
such as Word, or a graphics program.
But what if you want to capture only the active window - the
actual window that you may have just brought up on your
screen?
That's when you use two keys together. The Alt and the Print
Screen keys.
Hold down the Alt key. Press the Print Screen key. That's it!
You've just made a copy of the active window, placing it on
the clipboard, ready to insert wherever you want to insert it.
I use a graphics program called Paint. It comes with your
computer. You can try it now. It's really cool! Or you can use
some other graphics programs that are far more robust.
However, nothing too fancy is required to make these screen
captures.
And now you know how it works. Here's an idea factory for
you. Use this skill to illustrate anything that requires a
picture. Use it to help people "get the picture." It's the driving
force behind The Newbie Club Learning System. we use it for
all of our tutorials, ebooks, and anything else requiring a
picture to help you understand your computer. And you can do
the same!

only $9.95 it's
a steal. <http://newbieclub.com/keyboard/?trendz>
