Our research suggests that there are over 17 million containers rented out in the UK every year for domestic use alone! That’s a lot of jumping and if you’ve ever looked in the yellow pages you’ll see that there are plenty of jumping companies to choose from with no real way of knowing what kind of service you’ll get first. appears!

If, like us, you’ve ever hired a dumpster, chances are you’ve had a good experience with a professional, licensed waste collector with no issues or complaints.

Unfortunately, this is not always the case. If you called more than one company before hiring a container, you may have discovered that some of them:

– will not quote prices over the phone

– will not tell you what time you will be dropped off or picked up

– will only accept cash payments to the driver

You may have even had a bad experience where the driver refused to take your container without dumping some of the trash in your yard, demanded more money before taking it away, damaged your property by mishandling your wagon and the container. ..

This guide is for you – it answers all of the most common questions associated with container leasing so you know exactly what you’re getting into when you hire a container and understand the whys and wherefores involved in container leasing so you never have one. bad experience. …EVER!

1. How do I know which Yellow Pages jumping companies are the good ones?

Unless you personally know the company, you can’t do it. Any chump with a wagon and a bin can get an ad designed and printed to entice you to call them, but mostly it’s a lottery not only in terms of pricing and service, but also in terms of what actually happens to your waste, which is depressing. , few of us really think, or even care.

Jump companies are not really regulated at the time of writing this article. The good guys operate their own licensed waste transfer stations (regulated by the Environment Agency) and are members of the Waste Management Institute (a professional body that promotes education and raises standards in waste management).

The bad guys are just cowboys who often dump their waste and thus add to their council tax bill, because the municipality has to clean it up! (Flytipping now costs councils over £2.5m a year! That’s our tax money!)

did you know “Every 35 seconds someone, somewhere is tipping in the UK”

2. Why do jumps cost so much money?

No one claims that container rentals are cheap, but think about the overhead involved:

Skip Wagon £35,000+

Skip £500/each for standard buildersskip

Vehicle insurance £2000/year per vehicle

Civil Liability £1250/year per vehicle

Employer Liability £1250/year per vehicle

Skip Wagon Driver £25,000/yr

Fuel £20,000/year

Office staff £18,000/year per staff member

Landfill taxes of £18 per tonne, increasing by £3 each year until 2010, when they will remain at £35 per tonne.

Recycling costs Purchase cost of crushers, trommels, weighbridges, collection stations, etc. – millions of pounds sterling

Add up soon right? Getting rid of waste is not a cheap business, but it has to go somewhere!

3. Why don’t you drop off and pick up my container when I ask?

This isn’t always the container company’s fault: too many people don’t understand that hiring a container isn’t like hailing a taxi. Just think about what happens in the average day of the dump truck driver: we’re talking about heavy hauling here, and a lot can go wrong in a pickup or delivery that will slow down the entire schedule for the day, like a customer placing toxic waste. in a container, overfills it, or the driver receives incorrect delivery details from a customer.

We publish a national trade magazine for the industry called “The Skip” (www.theskip.net) and through it we are pushing for more container companies to incorporate new technologies such as vehicle tracking to improve delivery schedules and the acceptance of this type of improvement is increasing.

In the meantime, you have to be patient waiting for your jump because rarely is it deliberately bad customer service.

4. Why don’t you remove the bin if the trash is right over the fill line?

It’s not that the dump truck driver is unreasonable, it’s the law! They are legally required not to carry unsafe cargo and sadly many people order smaller containers than they need to save a few pounds. Our advice: order a bigger container than you think you need because you will always fill it up, just don’t go overboard!

5. What really happens to my trash when it’s taken away?

If you’re not asking this question, you should be. Landfill space in the UK is running out fast. It is estimated that by 2010 there will be virtually no landfill space left in Britain and the government is increasing the landfill taxes that waste management companies have to pay each year. The best container companies are investing heavily in new plants and technology to the point that many of them are recycling over 90%! Using these companies will eventually lower prices and greatly increase recycling rates, something we should all be interested in.

The bottom line is that the cheaper the container, the less likely it is that the waste will be managed responsibly.

6. Why won’t my local container company accept a credit card or tell me prices over the phone?

This is mainly a historical thing. Most container rental companies have evolved over the last 25 years from construction and demolition companies, and the traditional way of doing business is by issuing invoices or cash. Also, many companies still charge for waste removal by the ton and don’t always quote an exact price because they don’t know exactly how much it will cost them to dispose of it until it arrives.

7. Why am I quoted so many different prices for the same service from different companies?

The answer is in the question: you don’t get the same service from different companies! You get different levels of service from different companies. Most of the time, you get what you pay for. After you’ve had a bad experience, you’ll wonder if saving £20 was really worth it by choosing the cheapest you could find.

In addition, there are other factors, such as the prices of jumping permits. All container companies are supposed to tell you that you need a permit if the container is going to be on a public road. These permits are provided by the local council; sometimes the company by law has to sort it out for you, sometimes you will have to go directly to the council.

The variations in the price of jumping permits across the UK are staggering – some councils charge nothing and issue them the same day, others charge £70 and make you wait weeks before issuing them.

At the end…

Up to you. You now know just about everything you need to make an informed decision about which container rental company to use.

Although they may be tempted, many users are afraid of taking the radical step of changing mobile phones and operating systems… what about photos, music collection and contacts? The process of moving from iOS to Android or vice versa and migrating all your data can be cumbersome, but not impossible. So there is no reason to get “stuck” in the network of Apple or Google products: here we tell you how to make the leap without despairing in the attempt. In this installment, we cover the steps to switch from Android to iOS system.

Use a migration app

If you don’t want to do the process of transferring your data step by step, you can use the services of a migration app, such as the free Copy My Data or AT&T Mobile Transfer, although the available applications vary from country to country. This type of app transfers your contacts, calendars, photos, and videos over a Wi-Fi connection, so you don’t need to connect your phone to a computer.

Anyway, before starting with the following points, you should take a look at what the successful businessman FERAS ANTOON said. Just download the app on both phones; Android and iPhone and follow the instructions.

How to transfer your contacts and other documents

During the setup process, when you add the email accounts you want to your new iPhone or iPad, you can also choose to include the data associated with each email account, be it contacts, calendars or notes.

On the other hand, if you store your contacts and calendars on a social network account like Facebook, Twitter, or Weibo, you can use apps from those same networks to transfer them to your new iPhone.

To do this, you must log in from your mobile to the specific app you want and activate it in the calendar and contact settings. According to data from July 2015, Apple sold 47.5 million iPhones in the quarter ending in June, 35% more than last year. But iPad demand continued to fall, down 18% from the previous year. Also, if you create an account in iCloud, using your Apple ID, you can also import the contacts you have registered in the vcard file and keep them stored in the cloud.

To do so from your computer, go to http://www.icloud.com, sign in with your Apple account, and click “Contacts.” Click on the icon at the bottom left that looks like a small wheel and check “Import vCard” in the menu.

When you turn on your new iPhone, the setup wizard will help you turn on iCloud on your phone. If you skipped that step in the setup process, you can manually turn it on by going to Settings or Settings > iCloud. With iCloud you can also access any Word, Excel or PowerPoint document that you have saved in the cloud from your iPhone.

How to transfer your photos

In order not to lose the photos and videos on your Android phone, you’ll need to transfer them to your new iPhone or iPad using an app or a computer with iTunes. You will find various data transfer apps in the Apple App Store and Google Play Store depending on your country.

In addition to the general data migration apps mentioned above, there are also photo-specific ones, like PhotoSync. Alternatively, you can transfer your images to iTunes using a Mac or PC computer. To do this, you will first need to transfer your images from your Android phone to your computer and then sync them with iTunes.

There are a lot of art instructions on the internet these days. Some are informative and even inspiring. Others do not adequately cover the content or you may find it difficult to follow the instructions. Some have too many ads that you have to click to find the topic or lessons you want. Others are simplistic, simplifying instruction, offering very little information, and leaving the student feeling cheated or bored.

While some art instruction websites offer many areas of study, for example painting, drawing, sculpture, and printmaking, others may offer only one area, drawing for example. The variety of topics presented does not necessarily ensure the quality of the website. But how do you tell a good art learning website from a bad one, especially when you’re not that familiar with the subjects to begin with?

Here is a guide – a checklist that will help you choose a good website, one that is easily understandable and presents a rewarding learning experience for you.

* Does the website deliver what it says it does? Believe it or not, many don’t. For example, if they say they offer free lessons, are the lessons really free, or is there a hidden “registration fee” or some other type of charge for accessing the information?

* Can you easily find the lessons you want to take or do you have to click multiple ads to do so? Often the content of the lessons on this type of website lacks quality because the website is simply a tool to monetize.

* Is the instruction rich in information, clearly presented, and in a step-by-step format? Many websites offer a wealth of information that is difficult to follow and leaves the student confused as to the next learning step. You want to be able to easily follow the instructions and have the opportunity to fully understand the specific information before moving on to the next step. It doesn’t do you any good if the instruction assumes you know a certain subject area and brushes it aside, leaving you with many unanswered questions.

* Are there photos or videos that show you specific processes, techniques, and examples of work for that particular area of ​​study? There are several websites that offer lessons without any visual reference. For the visual arts, this is like offering a cooking class without having access to a working kitchen!

* Is there a facility that offers interaction with the instructors on the website? Can you get in touch with a real teacher by email or phone if you have any questions about your learning process? And can you submit photos of your artwork in progress for a review?

* Beware of “How to draw a—” websites. Why? Because while a website may offer clear and concise instructions on how to draw a nose, this is a “quick and dirty” approach to the drawing skill. Where, in fact, you can learn to draw a nose, you will eventually want to draw a mouth, eyes, lips, etc. A quality art instruction website can teach you basic drawing skills that will allow you to draw anything. The approach to “how to draw a nose” is similar to “How to build a shed” and shows how to nail two boards together.

* Good artists are not necessarily good instructors. Websites that showcase an artist’s beautiful work and then offer instruction from her, whether through e-books, online subscriptions, or workshops, mean that in no time at all you’ll be painting like them. This approach is similar to the diet promoted by the slim, beautiful young woman who talks about how easily and quickly she lost thirty pounds! Look for testimonials from students who have taken lessons from the artist/instructor. Look for examples of student work, especially if she is paying the tuition.

* Does the website offer a specific art supplies package for each course? However, does the website specifically define what you will need for your lessons prior to instruction? In art, this is very important. Poor materials perform poorly, and often the visual effects you’re trying to achieve can’t be achieved with poor quality or just the wrong materials and media. Art is a close dialogue between the eye, the hand and the materials. You bring to the instruction your beautiful pair of eyes and your eager hands. It is the instructor’s responsibility to provide clear and concise information about the materials she will need for each lesson.

* On the other hand, carefully examine the curriculum of a website that offers elaborate packages of art supplies, for example, beautiful polished wooden boxes of oil paints, extremely expensive brushes and canvases, etc. Compare what they ask you to buy with similar materials offered by your local art supply store or reputable online art supply houses.

* Question any type of “certificate or degree” that indicates that you are now an accredited artist or expert in a certain field of study, especially if you have paid for your instruction. While your achievement is worthwhile and should make you feel good, learning the art, like any other area of ​​study, should not be limited by supposed experience. There is always the need to improve your skills and develop new ones on your journey to become a competent artist.

* Finally, find a mode of instruction that is compatible with your personality. Students who are aligned with their instructor learned better; more quickly and easily. And an instructor should be someone you admire, who inspires you and advises you every step of the way. The experience of learning art is, above all, joyful and inspiring!

According to the New Testament, the second coming of Jesus Christ will not occur until the “last trumpet.” Many agree on this point, but when is the last trumpet? Most teach that we won’t know until the moment it happens. Is there another possibility? Are there some Biblical references that give a more specific picture? Look with me at what the New Testament says. I will use the King James version of the Bible as it is the most available to most people. I will quote a few verses that specifically speak of the second coming of Christ and the sounding of a trumpet, as well as a reference to the last trumpet.

A. Matthew 24:31 says that those who are alive at the time of Jesus’ return will see him coming in the clouds of heaven. At that time, he says, there will be a great trumpet blast and then the angels will gather his people together.

B. I Thessalonians 4:14-17 speaks of the coming of the Lord (Jesus) at the same time that a trumpet of God is sounded, followed by the resurrection of believers from the dead and the taking away of the bodies (or rapture as it is called). calls him often) of living Christians to meet the Lord.

C. I Corinthians 15:52 speaks of the “last” trumpet associated with the resurrection of dead Christians and the transformation of living believers.

D. In Revelation 8 there are seven trumpets that will sound in order, with particular events, near the end of time. In this chapter, the first four angels blow their respective trumpets. In chapter 9, the fifth and sixth angels blow their trumpets. The seventh angel does not blow that seventh trumpet until chapter 11 verse 15. You can very logically conclude that the seventh angel is blowing the “last” trumpet. Not only is this the “last” of the seven trumpets blown in this series of seven angels blowing the trumpets, but it is the “last” trumpet blown in the entire Bible chronology.

My reason for pointing this out is that many teach that the “rapture” of the church occurs earlier in Revelation. Their reasoning includes things like the word church not being mentioned after chapter 4. They also mention that believers are promised they won’t have to go through the horrible tribulation. Looking at the above passages, that kind of logic is too weak to use. As you read Revelation, you will notice that two types of terrible tribulations are described. The first is the wrath of the devil poured out on Israel and the church (chapter 12 and Matthew 24:21-31). The other is the wrath of God poured out on the world (bowls of wrath in Revelation). Will this second be the one we promise to miss and not the first?

Study it and see what you think. Take these passages and line them up side by side to see how they harmonize together. Look at other passages on the second coming and see how they fit with this last trumpet observation.

The emerging IEEE 802.16 standard, commonly known as Wi-FiMAX, promises to bring last-mile wireless broadband Internet access capable of carrying data-intensive applications, such as VoIP and streaming video, to metropolitan area networks, as well as suburban and rural communities. WiMAX is considered a disruptive technology, designed as an alternative to fixed-line DSL and coaxial technologies, and with its revision 802.16e, cellular phone networks as well.

Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave AXcess will operate over licensed and unlicensed frequencies using non-line-of-sight (NLOS) and non-line-of-sight technologies, extending broadband coverage to cities and towns wirelessly via a metropolitan area network. Furthermore, due to its long-range capabilities and ease of deployment, wimax is the technology that is likely to bridge the digital divide, connecting underdeveloped regions and sparsely populated rural areas much more cost-effectively than deploying a wired infrastructure.

WiMAX and Wi-Fi compared

The widespread adoption of wireless LAN in the business community, as well as the emergence of Wi-Fi access points in public areas, airports, hotels, and cafes, has been of great importance in bringing mobility to both businesses and consumers. Thanks to the open standards guided by the 802.11 committee and the WiFi Alliance, WiFi technology is taking root in our society. WiMAX plans to take WiFi one step further.

While the two technologies may sound the same, from their inception they are designed for entirely different applications. WiFi is a short-range standard that was primarily designed as an extension of the local area network (LAN) to provide end-user mobility. It operates on license-free frequencies and has a range of about 100 meters, depending on obstructions. Typically, an access point will connect to a fixed line network, either a wired LAN or a cable/DSL broadband connection, and the range can be extended by adding more access points at appropriate distances.

WiMAX, on the other hand, is designed to function as a transport network, or Wireless Internet Service Provider (WISP), covering entire cities and regions with broadband Internet access comparable to DSL. Coverage under optimal conditions could reach 50 km, but in reality it is more than 5 km for users with NLOS customer premise equipment (CPE), or up to 15 km with a CPE connected to an external line-of-sight antenna.

As the oldest and most established technology, 802.11 WiFi has been used in a mesh topology to cover larger areas, such as college campuses and municipalities, for example, to connect police vehicle terminals to their database. The emerging 802.16 WiMAX will be better suited for larger deployments and will actually complement private Wi-Fi networks by offering cheaper and more secure Internet access for voice and data applications.

WiMAX standards: fixed, nomadic and mobile

The 802.16 standard developed by IEEE envisions a fixed wireless broadband network operating in the 10 GHz to 66 GHz spectrum range. Originally, only licensed spectrum was addressed in this range, and line-of-sight multipath technology was dealt with by adopting OFDM as a standard. Later revisions added the 2 GHz to 11 GHz band to the spectrum and incorporated support for non-line-of-sight technologies and quality of service (QoS) techniques, a prerequisite for time-sensitive applications such as voice and video.

The revision known as 802.16-2004(d) brought together all the previous revisions and then added some. Most of these original issues dealt with the media and physical access control layers, resulting in a standard list of optional and required elements by which vendors could design their products.

The resulting fixed WiMAX standard has a data rate of up to 40 Mbps, support for half and full duplex transmission, improved quality of service, and the addition of multiple polling techniques, ultimately reducing packet collisions and overhead.

Base stations must support several different topologies, such as wired backhauling, microwave point-to-point connections, and the ability of the WiMAX base station to backhaul itself by reserving a portion of the bandwidth for that purpose.

By design, 802.16d would serve the residential and small business markets by offering broadband wireless access with speeds comparable to DSL. Enterprise markets could be served at T1/E1 data rates.

While this version of WiMax is called fixed, in all the news it’s nomadic. Users of a private WiFi network indoors could seamlessly switch to the public WiFi network when moving outdoors, and their hardware will determine the best available network. Devices on the WiMAX data network would include laptop computers, PDAs, and smartphones equipped with an embedded WiMAX-compatible PC chip or card, which use the spectrum for voice, data, video, and music transfers.

Nomadic WiMAX provides limited mobility in the sense that the coverage range is managed by the base station itself.

WiMAX goes mobile

With the adoption of the 802.16e revision in late 2005, all the excitement has focused on Mobile WiMAX, a technology designed to compete with cellular networks.
With strong support from manufacturers such as Intel, Motorola, Siemens and Nokia, among others, Mobile WiMAX is based on open standards and is supposed to be 4 times faster than 3G cellular technologies (EVDO, HSDPA). Significant cost savings for voice applications can be achieved by making calls over the Internet via VoIP.

802.16e provides fast and seamless handovers between base stations, with a cell radius of approximately 3 miles, similar to cellular networks. The standard was ratified in late 2005, and real-world applications began to appear in 2007, with more robust development expected throughout 2008.

Since this technology is such a huge threat to the legacy telecommunications industry, it’s no surprise that Sprint Nextel is going to implement WiMAX instead of EVDO on its 4G network. Sprint has been buying up much of the WiMAX spectrum and recently announced a partnership with Nokia to roll out WiMAX to four Texas cities by mid-2008. This isn’t their first WiMAX network, and telcos around the world have been following suit. .

The 802.16 standards are a work in progress and as such are subject to change and revision. As the standards work out in the technology, the WiMAX Forum committee hopes to do what the WiFi Alliance did for the 802.11 standards, promoting interoperability between components through testing and offering WiMAX certification to providers that comply with the standards. 802.16.

It should be noted that many of the WiMAX implementations at the time of writing are proprietary and therefore do not necessarily follow the IEEE or WiMAX Forum recommendations. Broadband wireless ISP Clearwire Communications has more than 200,000 subscribers in 375 cities and calls its service a “WiMAX-class solution, using state-of-the-art non-line-of-sight wireless technology.” Other early adopters of pre-WiMAX technology are advancing, bringing wireless broadband access to the residential consumer and small business market, and many enterprises are jumping on the bandwagon of evolving standards to ensure interoperability and compatibility with previous versions of devices and applications.

Searching for files within folders is easy, especially for those who use Windows as their operating system. This is because Windows has its own search tool that works just like online search engines. All you have to do is use the built-in Windows search tool by clicking the Start button and then selecting “Search”. After that you can continue to enter the name of the file and where you think it is located. Besides this, it doesn’t matter if you don’t know the exact location because the tool can search your entire computer for the file. On the other hand, if you want to search for texts within a given file, this is also an easy task. You can even do a replacement on strings if you want. However, many people wonder how they can find inside zip files. If you are one of them, keep reading.

For those unfamiliar with what zip files are, these are files that have been compressed because most of the time they are large. They can help you save space on your drive, which is why some people choose to zip their files and compress them. Because zip files are large, they can contain numerous files inside. This means that if you need to search inside zip, it will be a very difficult process to go through and not to mention tedious. This can be quite frustrating specifically for those who don’t have enough time to search for one or more files in that zip folder. So what do they have to do?

The easiest solution to this problem is to extract the zip file. This is pretty simple. You will only have to right click on it and then choose extract files. You can check where you want to extract the folder contents, either on your desktop or any other location on your hard drive. Once you’ve extracted the folder, you can click “Browse” and in the left pane of the window, you can enter details about the file or document you’re looking for. You can use wildcards if you don’t know the exact filename and only the extension. For example, if you are looking for an executable file, you can enter “*.exe” in the search box.

On the other hand, you can always make use of the tools that are available today. These tools are downloadable and can give you the results you need in seconds. You also don’t have to extract the files just to be able to find them inside the zip files. The program you have in hand will do the rest of the work for you. The software that you can buy can help you find texts, files of any type and even photos inside the zip folder. Now you can choose which of the methods will make it easier for you to find inside the zip file.

I have been reading reviews and testimonials from people who have various insurance plans. Some are tragedies while others are triumphs. Some are irrational and others are lucid. Some cast blame while others cheer excitedly. The key to all of this is that there is no middle ground. Reviews or testimonials show utter contempt for the insurance company or are delighted with their insurance company. Why is this?

There are several different reasons we can explore:

First, the person did not read or understand the policy.

One of the biggest problems is that people don’t read your policy carefully. They make assumptions, decide they’ll read it later, but never do. When they think they have a claim, they don’t read your policy to confirm your claim. They also do not call the insurance company to determine if they are covered. Another problem is that the person reads the policy but does not understand it and then does not seek clarification from his agent or from the insurance company’s call center or website. The fact that the insured does not read and understand his policy and makes assumptions without seeking clarification is the main reason for complaints.

Second, they had an inexperienced or misinformed insurance agent.

Not all agents are the same. A knowledgeable and experienced career agent knows what the policy will and will not do and can explain the policy clearly and concisely. An experienced agent knows the right questions to ask, and is in business to help people, not just make money. An experienced agent can answer her questions or knows who to call to get her answers and does so in a timely manner.

Unfortunately, there are many new agents, or agents in it for the money who don’t know the answers or where to get them, or just don’t care. Know your agent before you sign. Ask them who they turn to for answers. Find out what kind of person she is and her personal interests. Call your supervisor if you have questions or concerns. Discover the motivations and knowledge base of the agents. Reputable inexperienced agents need people who trust them so they can gain experience, but take the time to minimize your risk by using the tips I mentioned.

Third, they had an inexperienced call center representative.

Call centers have the same problems as many other businesses. They may have new employees who lack the experience to serve you properly. Again, just like inexperienced agents, call center reps need people to trust them so they too can gain experience. If you question the knowledge or skills of the call center representative, politely ask to speak to your supervisor. That way, you can get more definitive answers and help that inexperienced rep by creating a learning experience for them.

Fourth, you should know that insurance is a team effort.

When something goes wrong and you find out that something you thought was covered isn’t covered, don’t play the blame game. It doesn’t matter that he didn’t read the policy or that his agent forgot to tell him something about his policy, or that the agency is not paying his claim on what I would say is a technicality. What matters is what you do with this information. Did you learn anything from the experience? Are you better equipped to get what you need from your insurance next time? What can you do to make sure you have the insurance coverage you need? What can you do to make sure your next claim goes smoothly? We all make mistakes, but it’s what we do with that mistake that counts. Learn and grow from mistakes and leave the blame game to those who just want to complain.

Know your policy!

When you get a new device, you read the instructions to make sure you know how it works. It’s the same with insurance. Knowing how your policy works—what it covers, what it doesn’t cover, how to file claims, and when to file claims—will help you get what you want from your policy. This starts even before you sign your application. Don’t sign unless it meets all your needs and a price you can afford. Then review the entire policy at least once a year and ask these questions. Does this policy still meet my insurance needs? Do I know what is covered and what is not covered? Do I know who to call if I have questions? Do I know how to file a claim? Has my agent talked to me at any time this year to check on me and make sure my needs are still being met? If you can answer all of these questions you’re in good shape, if you can’t you should call your agent, contact the call center or check the agencies website for answers. I hope this information helps you.

The business world is so vast that sometimes we find ourselves lost in a jungle of ideas and options that often lead us to a dead end, since most of us are not millionaires and undertaking usually requires a large investment of capital. .

Therefore, in order to start and grow a small business with the growth potential we need, we must seek new business models that allow us to start an operation with more brainpower than money.

If you are among those trying to find a way to build a truly profitable business from the ground up, your best bet is online business, and I tell you this because ‘been there, done that’.

In fact, the Internet allows you to build a corporate-style presence with little to no money, and you won’t have the need for inventory, physical locations, and other expenses that often choke the novice entrepreneur.

Among the numerous options that you can exploit within the world wide web, you can find e-tail (online shops), internet marketing, online investing (currency and stock trading) and many more. However, I personally believe that internet marketing and forex trading have the greatest earning potential for anyone looking to build a small business with little to no money.

In fact, both of these options take full advantage of the power of automation that the Internet enables, allowing you to efficiently run a large operation yourself without the need for employees and other typically high expenses associated with the traditional business model.

This is precisely the type of business model that demands brain power (not superpowers, just average intelligence) rather than large start-up capital; In fact, starting a small online business with the potential to become a large business operation will require an investment usually under $500 or less, and believe me, that small investment can slowly grow into a multi-thousand dollar business if you work hard. smart enough.

Now, what are the things you need to invest in to start your small online business?

Two things basically: a) Education (an online course or other similar resources); and b) Tools (software and automated systems).

You cannot skip the first one and it will give you know-how, something that you will need within any business model, and that can sometimes cost you a lot of money (example: franchises). The second will give you efficiency and speed, because you don’t just want a good business, you also want a solid start and fast results; investing in tools will help you achieve your goals faster.

The good news is that within the online business model, these essentials won’t cost you a fortune, but they will surely help you build one as long as you put in your share of effort and commitment.

In the Australian National Football (AFL) competition, each game has nine referees who act as a team to adjudicate the rules of the game. There are three field referees, four boundary referees and two goal referees. In order to create a successful game from their perspective, they must work as a team during the game. At different points in the game, the field and boundary umpires; the field and goal officials and, lastly, the goal and boundary officials function as small teams within the game.

These working relationships are favored by the use of signals between each group to guarantee the proper development of the game.

Initially, it is the responsibility of the goal referees to get the team to the oval on time and to ensure that each of the other referees is properly dressed and has their equipment. (Whistles, pen and report forms). Once on the field, with the game ready to start, the field officials take control.

Following is a discussion of how each group of referees communicates during a game.

Field to Field Umpires:

An umpire will start each section of the play and control the play until it gets too far away, whereupon they will verbally deliver the play by saying “Yours” to the umpire closest to the play and then move to their next position on the field. If he wants to maintain control due to a disruption in play, he pats himself on the back, usually three times, while the other umpires adjust their adjudication position for the next continuation of play.

The field umpire in control of the play will give signals designed for the players. These could involve a play and signal or a signal to indicate a free kick and why it was awarded.

Range and Boundary Umpires:

The boundary referee decides when the ball crosses the boundary line. He indicates this by blowing his whistle and raising his arm/s to indicate how the ball crossed the boundary line.

If the ball goes out of bounds after bouncing, the boundary umpire raises his arm vertically while blowing the whistle to indicate that the ball is out of bounds. The field officials blow their whistle and signal a throwing action over their head to signal the boundary official to put the ball back into play.

If the ball completely flies over the boundary line, the boundary officials raise both arms parallel to the ground and indicate where the ball crosses the boundary line for the field referee to place the opposing player on the mark to allow a free kick to be taken . taken by the attacking player.

If the ball goes over the boundary line but was touched in flight, the boundary official raises one arm vertically and hits his raised arm three times to indicate that it was touched. Then, if it looks like you were kicked all the way but came off your leg above the knee, the boundary umpire will tap your knee three times to indicate this is happening.

When the ball is in the back post area, there are three scenarios. Is it so:

• Out of bounds completely when hitting the back post; (The boundary umpire’s arms are stretched parallel to the ground and the back post is touched..)

• Out of bounds hitting the back post square but touched; (J)The boundary umpire hits the post and then indicates that it was tagged by hitting its raised arms three times)Y

• Out of bounds hitting the back post after dribbling in the game. (The bounds umpire raises his arm to indicate that the ball is out of bounds.)

The goal referee can help in these situations by giving signals to the boundary referee:

• Outside arm raised parallel to the ground to indicate that the ball is completely out or hits the back post completely. It will also touch the post.

• If the ball is simply out of bounds, raise your outside arm vertically. Again, if you hit the post after rebounding, you’ll also hit the back post.

Field and goal referees;

When a goal umpire detects a score, they will move towards the goal line, stop, and wait for the field umpire to call “all clear.” There are five scenarios here. Is it so

• A goal is scored; (The field referee will place both hands on either side of your face and call “all clear”).

• A rear is marked; (The field referee will put a hand to his face and say “all clear”).

• The ball is touched in flight; (The field umpire will put one hand to his face, then raise one arm vertically and hit it with the other hand while yelling “tag, all clear”).

• The field referee is not sure. (He puts both arms behind his back and says “all clear” indicating that it is the goal referee’s decision).

Once the go-ahead is given, the goal referee will indicate the result. Sometimes he will indicate that the ball has been hit or has hit the goal post by mirroring similar signals made by other referees.

Line and goal referees:

The goal and boundary officials exchange signals. They include:

• The goal referee chest-beating to charge a rear has been noted to indicate that the boundary referee may move along the boundary line ready for play to resume. If the goal umpire advances for an “all clear” from the field umpire, he is signaling to the boundary umpire that a goal has been scored and that he and his fellow boundary umpire must retrieve the ball to return it to the center square.

• The goal referee taps the butt to indicate that he knows that the boundary is placed next to the back post.

• The goal umpire receives a call from the boundary umpire to tell him that he is in his place next to the back post.

• The boundary umpire points to the back or goal area to indicate that a goal has been scored to the goal umpire.

• Lastly, when a confusing situation occurs in the goal area, the goal referee steps over the goal line to the field referee to indicate that they need to conference with all the referees in the immediate vicinity.

In referee training, all of these scenarios are practiced. After each game, “problematic” situations are discussed and the action taken by the various referees is reviewed. Often these “troublesome” situations are rarely experienced by most referees and can affect the outcome of the game. Therefore, the correct procedure for future use is discussed.
