For starters, pet accessories vary in price. Price changes are due to different manufacturers and designs. For example, the more elegant the clothes look, and the more durable their material, the more you will cough. Other accessories include feeders, collars, and even toys. Yes, you read that right, pets need to play too. Walking them and that frequent contact is not enough. Toys add to the fun, and different pets require different toys.

For the most advanced level accessory, there are car carriers. These vary in size, and that is directly related to the size of your pet. Other variations include how comfortable the carrier is and the color. Regardless of all the differences, the main reason a carrier is important is to help pet owners transport their pets easily and safely. Shop around and take your time to get the best deals for quality carriers. Doing this will ensure your pet’s comfort.

Owning Rental Properties: Positives and Negatives

admin

Many people look at those who own and/or operate investment/rental properties, and wonder, wouldn’t it be great to do it themselves? While some individuals and properties make a lot of sense, others don’t! Like most things in life, owning an investment property has positives and negatives, and you owe it to yourself to fully consider, with your eyes wide open, some of the many factors and considerations involved. With that in mind, this article will attempt to consider, review, and briefly discuss some of these variables and considerations.

1. Comparisons/competitive, opportunity costs, uses of your money: Does buying and owning a particular property maximize its possibilities and return on investment, compared to other alternatives and uses? In other words, will doing so give you the most money? When considering any real estate investment, start by fully evaluating, not only the initial purchase price, but also how much will be needed, both in the short and long term! Take the purchase price, plus the most immediate costs (first 2 years of ownership), incurred and involved. Then conservatively consider and use projected rents (look at the local market and competition, and use a figure of 80%, or four-fifths of that number, to see your rate of return). Look for a minimum rate of return of 6% (for example, if the property purchase plus short-term price is $500,000, your total rent should be about $37,000, so your 80% figure is roughly of $30,000 or 6% of the cost figure). Also, compare this to opportunity: costs, for your money, or what you could likely receive from other investment vehicles.)

two. Bookings: We suggest using the 80% figure, so you are prepared for vacancies, etc. In addition, proceed only when sufficient reserves have been established for contingencies, such as repairs, remodeling, maintenance, conservation. etc.

3. Down payment, versus mortgage/loans: Most purchase these smaller investment properties, with the help and assistance of obtaining a mortgage loan. Be prepared to have enough rental records and reservations to pay your monthly expenses, including mortgage interest and principal, property taxes, insurance, landlord payment, utilities, etc.

Four. Tenants and rents collected: Consider your tenants carefully and look for people who are trustworthy, trustworthy, have good credit, etc. There are various philosophies, and some landlords proceed, seeking the highest rents possible, seeming willing to wait until they get that. However, that philosophy may or may not provide maximum rent-rolls, and the risk is greater periods with vacancies. The other approach, is the one that I personally believe and follow, in the properties that I personally own and/or manage, is rent seeking, in the middle of the pack, providing maximum service to tenants and maintaining/maintaining quality. tenants, for much longer periods than usual. Know your personal risk/reward tolerance and philosophy early on!

Is owning a rental home a good option for you? Know what you are looking for and what you can afford, as well as your risk/reward tolerance!

Why do many people adopt SharePoint?

admin

The disappointment comes down to the issue of simplicity, and simplicity is something SharePoint is definitely not.

One particular problem with the focus on content management is that it’s not really one of the powerful features of SharePoint. “SharePoint takes a lot of risks as an ECM system, it gets the job done, but it doesn’t do it all the time

Here are some things we know. It is a successful product of more than a billion dollars for Microsoft. SharePoint is a data repository, collaboration system, publishing tool, enterprise content management system, and development platform. It has enough features to be just about everything for every organization, but this is rarely the case.

SharePoint is a document management and collaboration tool developed by Microsoft. It is essentially an intranet and content management system used for internal purposes to help bring an organization together.

How is SharePoint used?

SharePoint 2013 remains the most widely used edition, although more than a quarter of respondents still use SharePoint 2007.

Only two percent are online with SharePoint 2016, while 19 percent have adopted SharePoint Office 365. The latter is likely to grow significantly in the future, with a focus on Microsoft, which aims to offer companies that use it they want.

But it’s not clear that the new version provides a solution to SharePoint adoption issues, hybrid approach or not. In fact, 29% of respondents said they didn’t know what SharePoint 2016 had to offer.

4 SIGNS THAT USERS ARE ADOPTING SharePoint:

Have you ever been in an organization, large or small, where SharePoint has been running for months or years, but when you look around you realize that it’s not fully used? I’m not talking big, since they don’t use InfoPath for their form automation, or they don’t use Business Connectivity Services to expose their data through external content types. I am referring to organizations that simply store old archived documents in a library that is still called Shared Documents and whose most elaborate web part is the one that shows current weather forecasts. I’m talking about the organization that has SharePoint installed, but obviously I’ve never heard a good talk about how SharePoint can be used effectively to make your work more productive.

1. They use SharePoint version control instead of renaming a file:

Well, you convinced me to store all my documents in SharePoint document libraries. Good. I will put my FinanceReport.doc file in SharePoint. And next week, when I add the new financial data to the document, I will also store it in SharePoint – FinanceReport-v02.doc. And oh Bruce just reminded me of another change I need no problem go to FinanceReport-v03.doc. Or maybe even Finance Report-2011-05-28.doc. Enable version control for your document library. Never rename the file, just update the file and let SharePoint manage all the versions for you. But how will people see previous versions? They’ll click on Version History and get a list of all previous versions, who changed them when they did it, and most of the comments describing the changes they made. Go one step further by using Office integration to view and compare previous versions of documents stored in SharePoint.

2. They use hyperlinks to SharePoint documents in their emails:

you have SharePoint, you should use this button much less in your emails. Why send one copy of this huge document to all 20 of your team members, creating 20 copies for your mail server, and creating isolated documents that have no idea what changes other team members might want to make to this document? Save the document once to SharePoint, and then send a link to the document in your email. Not only have your email files been reduced to a fraction of their size (your mobile team members will thank you), but now your team feels comfortable knowing you’re reviewing the copy. accurate and up-to-date document. Are you worried that the link may change in the future, making your email link obsolete? See document IDs in SharePoint 2010.

3. They abandon spreadsheets for SharePoint lists as much as possible:

Excel can certainly create monsters of wide spreadsheets generated by macros. But in most cases, most of the worksheets we use are just basic tabular representations of some of the data we need to track. If this is true, most of the time a SharePoint list is the best option using an Excel spreadsheet. In addition to being able to collaborate more on data, list features such as views, sorting/filtering, and exposing your spreadsheet data for search are very valuable selling points. important. Does anyone complain that they don’t like the look of the SharePoint list? Make sure the default view is Datasheet view. Now what to complain about? Does anyone complain about having already filled out a huge spreadsheet in Excel? Tell them about the Import Spreadsheet feature. Soon, every time someone sees words in a document placed in something that even looks like a table, they’ll start to wonder why it’s not in a SharePoint list?

4. They use SharePoint search:

People tend to browse and click through SharePoint sites and libraries looking for documents, instead of using the clever little search box at the top of every SharePoint site. In some ways, this is understandable: in the past, the main information operator experience in searching for documents in his office was the old-school search option of Windows XP and earlier versions, with a little puppy for our help. computer will scan each document in search of what we are looking for. But what people need to understand now is that their SharePoint portal includes indexed search, which means you’ll get near-instant search results, even when searching tons of documents across the company. And when you add SharePoint 2010 search features, such as enhancements, metadata-driven navigation and search experience, or even .

Some of the best funny videos on the internet

admin

People love to laugh. No matter what the source of laughter, people simply enjoy the euphoria that comes with a good laugh. Watching funny videos on the Internet has become a very popular source of entertainment and laughter. Here are some examples of some of the best funny videos on the Internet today.

First, he is a New Jersey resident who quickly became an internet sensation singing a pop song known as Numa Numa. The man is sitting in front of his webcam with headphones on and the Numa Numa song playing in the background. His exaggerated lip sync, facial expressions, and radical arm movements are what make this music video hilarious.

Second, there is the video starring The Star Wars Kid. This teen recorded himself swinging a golf ball like a lightsaber in a high school studio. A classmate discovered the video and showed it to a friend, which led to it being posted on the internet and becoming an online video legend. Not only has it been viewed nearly twenty-one million times, but it has spawned many parodies and references on various popular television shows.

Third, there is a video called David After Dentist. Children often say and do the funniest things. That’s especially true of this video that captures a young boy, David, experiencing the effects of anesthesia after a dental appointment. He says a lot of silly and funny things, but at one point he suddenly rises from his flesh and screams at the top of his lungs, only to immediately slump back down and fall asleep. All these comedic moments are recorded by his father and have generated more than eighty and a half million views.

Fourth, it is a video that brings together two humorous elements that are always a hit; adorable children and a British accent. Charlie Bit Me shows Charlie biting off his older brother’s finger. One might wonder how funny this is, but the way the brother responds to being bitten, plus Charlie’s evil giggle are what make this one of the most popular clips of all time with over two hundred and seventy seven million views.

Animals frequently do funny things, but when humans try to translate what animals do, it becomes even funnier. In the original video, it seems that the two cats are having a conversation with each other through their meows. In the remix titled Cats Talking Translation, the words have been brilliantly edited for the cats’ meows and their hilarious conversation can be “understood”.

Last but not least, there is a dance video called The Evolution of Dance. The comedian in this internet favorite demonstrated dance moves from several different musical eras and combined them into six minutes of pure entertainment. It also helps that he’s pretty good with the moves, which adds even more humor and appeal to the video.

The best funny videos often become staples of humor and jokes that are shared and quoted every day among friends around the world. TV shows make videos part of their programs and the people featured in the videos often get wide recognition. The best videos go down in history and leave a lasting impression on viewers.

cafeteria dining room

admin

For large group feeding facilities (cafeterias, hospitals, prisons), the support area takes on a complexity rarely seen within a table service or fast food restaurant. An institutional kitchen may require as much as 2,000 to 3,000 square feet of support area, because this is where serving lines are established in a multitude of combinations:

1. Straight service line
2. Shopping center system
3. Scramble system (or free flow)

The straight line is exactly what its name implies. In terms of speeding customers through the food line, it’s the slowest moving arrangement, because most guests are reluctant to pass the slower ones in front of them. However, single or double straight lines are still the most common style in commercial cafes because they take up less space and the average guest is comfortable with the layout.

Since customers must go through all the food options, they are also more likely to create an impulse purchase.

The shopping center (also called the detour line) is actually a variation of the straight line. Instead of being perfectly straight, sections of the line are indented, separating salads from hot foods, etc. This makes it easier for guests to miss a section. On serving lines where burgers, omelettes or sandwiches are prepared by individual order, the bypass arrangement keeps things moving.

The free-flow or scramble system is designed so that each guest can go directly to the areas that interest them. (From time to time, you’ll hear it referred to as a hollow square program.) Food stations can be arranged in the shape of a giant U, a square with islands in the middle, or just about any shape the size of the table is. room allow. allowed. This design can be attractive, but it is often confusing to first-time customers. You are most likely to discover this design in an industrial cafeteria, where employees eat every day and will soon become familiar with it.

Scramble systems offer fast service and minimal waiting. They also allow some types of show cooking, including grilled, sautéed, or sliced-to-order dishes. Airline food service kitchens appear to have the largest and most complex support areas. Several dozen workers line a conveyor belt schedule, assembling meal trays for up to 70,000 passengers a day. To produce this kind of quantity, prepared food is kept in hot carts, and much of the preparation is done ahead of time so the assembly process is quick.

Finding motivation: what to do when you don’t feel like doing anything

admin

“The measure of your success usually comes down to who wins the battle raging between the two of you. The ‘you’ who wants to stop, give up, or take it easy, and the ‘you’ who chooses to beat that.” that would stand in the way of your success: complacency.” chris widener

In all my interactions with people, I have never come across anyone, regardless of their level of success, who sometimes just doesn’t want to do the things they need to and want to do. It is part of human nature that there will be times when, despite everything we need to do, and even want, we will find ourselves not wanting to do anything. And what separates those who will succeed from those who will maintain the status quo, is the ability in those very crucial moments when we make decisions about what we will do, to choose to find the inner motivation that will allow us to conquer our complacency and take action. .

I realize I face this problem in my life on a regular basis, so the following success strategies aren’t just “pie in the sky techniques,” but proven ways to get yourself to do it, even when you don’t feel like it. Do nothing.

Honestly assess whether or not you need a break. This is the first thing I usually do, the thing I find I don’t want to get to a specific action. The fact is that many times we will have been working very hard and the lethargy that we are feeling is really our body and our emotions telling us that we simply need a break. And this is where true intellectual honesty is needed because when we don’t need a break, our mind still tells us we need a break. But sometimes we need a break. I will give you a good example. I don’t particularly like to exercise, but I do almost every day. Sometimes, before going to the club, I find myself thinking that I didn’t feel like going. Most of the time I’m just being lazy. However, sometimes I find that my body needs a break. So from time to time I will take a day or two break from exercise. The benefits of this are twofold: One, my body gets a break to regenerate. Two, after a day or two, I start to miss my workout and look forward to going to the gym.

Other examples: Perhaps you are a salesperson who has been calling customers for a week straight, day and night. You wake up one morning and you don’t feel like doing it anymore. Well, take a break in the morning. Go to a coffee shop and read the newspaper. Go to the driving range and hit some golf balls. Take a break and then do it again!

Start small. I am now at a point in my exercise program where a typical day of exercise for me consists of 30 to 45 minutes of aerobic exercise and about 30 minutes of lifting weights. So when I find myself not wanting to get up and go to the gym, I sometimes commit to going and doing a smaller workout. Rather than decide not to go, I will commit to 15 to 20 minutes of aerobic exercise and 15 to 30 minutes of weight lifting. This is also good for two reasons. One, I actually get some exercise that day. And two, it keeps me from getting into a cycle of giving up when I don’t feel like taking action.

Other examples: Maybe you’re a writer who just doesn’t want to write today. Instead of the long day of writing you had planned, decide that you will at least outline a couple of new articles. At least you’ll do this, and you may have noticed that you get in the mood to write after all.

Change your routine. I’ve found that 30-45 minutes on the treadmill every day is what keeps me in the best shape and burns the most calories. Now let me be very frank. I find running on the treadmill extremely boring. I can usually do it myself, but sometimes I need to vary my routine. So instead of 30 to 45 minutes on a treadmill, I’ll break my aerobic exercise routine into several different areas. I’ll do 10-15 minutes on the treadmill, 10-15 minutes on the recumbent cycle, 5-10 minutes on the rowing machine, 5-10 minutes on the stair climber, and then I’ll be back on the treadmill for five to 10 minutes. I still do my exercise, but I get bored much less.

Other examples: Maybe you’re in construction and have been working on plumbing for a week and it’s getting monotonous. Don’t do the plumbing today! Go frame in the office.

Reward yourself. One way to motivate myself to do something when I don’t feel like doing it is to tell myself that if I finish the work I need, I’ll give myself a small reward. For example, I can tell myself that if I get up and go to the club, I can take five to ten minutes off my treadmill, which will shorten my exercise routine, and I’ll allow myself to sit in the hot tub for a while. a few extra minutes. Hey it works!

Other examples: Maybe you’re a mortgage broker who feels like sleeping. Tell yourself that after the next three mortgages you close, you’ll be taking your kids to the fair or your spouse to the movies. Maybe give yourself a night on the town with old friends.

Reconnect the action with pleasure instead of pain. Psychologists have long told us that we humans tend to connect every action with pleasure or pain. Tony Robbins has popularized this further in recent years with something he calls Neural Associations. That is, we connect each action with a pleasure or pain. When we find ourselves lacking motivation, what we are probably discovering in ourselves is that we are associating the action we are thinking about with pain, rather than pleasure. For example, when I’m thinking about skipping the gym on a given day, I usually associate going and working out with not having time, the pain of working out and lifting weights, or the boredom of running on a treadmill for an extended period of time. of time. What I can do to re-associate myself is remind myself that by getting in and doing my exercise I will feel better about myself, lose weight and live longer. This brings me pleasure. When we start playing those kinds of tapes in our minds, we find that our inner motivating force is unleashed and our attitude about the action we are considering changes.

Other examples: Maybe you’re a counselor who really doesn’t want to spend your day listening to people. Your association may be that it will be boring, or that you will be inside while it is sunny outside. Instead, re-associate yourself with the truth of the matter: someone will be better off because of your care and concern. Think about your clients and the progression they’ve made recently and how you’ve been a part of that.

Face transplants in the news

admin

More akin to science fiction than scientific reality, several people have received face transplants in recent years. Now relegated to only the most horrific accidents, like most medical miracles, as techniques are perfected this type of operation will eventually become much more common. Once that happens, it’s only a matter of time until the procedure becomes available as an elective surgery for those who aren’t happy with their existing faces, or perhaps just want a new look. After all, who wants to spend their whole life with the same old face? Wouldn’t it be nice to face you again for your 25th high school reunion? And then again for 30?

Fortunately, great strides have also been made in face transplants for your kitchen (and other) cabinets. As materials and techniques have been perfected, kitchen remodeling can now be done cheaply and optionally, and when done correctly, it can be indistinguishable from a new kitchen, beautifying all those unsightly places that have embarrassed you for years.

In the not too distant past, a few brave practitioners risked their reputations using early reshaping techniques. You can choose from a catalog of about three different styles and colors for the siding, and most of them were flimsy laminate doors that had no detail. To make matters worse, the material was bonded to the face of the cabinets with contact cement, a terribly toxic and highly flammable adhesive that had a life expectancy of 10 to 15 years. Not very tempting!

So scientists at Minnesota Mining & Manufacturing (3M) went to work and created a new adhesive that is non-toxic, non-flammable, has no odor, and gets stronger as it ages. There is nothing better than that! So someone (not sure exactly who) developed a material called Rigid-Thermofoil, also known as RTF. This new wonder product is a vinyl-like material that is fused with a furniture grade composition board. Using computer-controlled heat and pressure to create the finished product, it’s flexible, much stronger than the old laminates of yesteryear, and can be formed into different shaped doors, allowing manufacturers to create hundreds of exciting styles. But they didn’t stop there. New photographic techniques were developed to duplicate the beauty of real wood. This year, they even launched an RTF product that looks like stainless steel, creating a very attractive contemporary look for your cabinets.

In 1951, Raymond Lowey, the famous industrial designer (and one of my personal heroes) wrote a book called Never leave well enough alone. Apparently, manufacturers who make wood doors for cladding recently discovered this book because they decided to introduce replacement doors in new shapes and species of wood. You are no longer relegated to just oak, maple and cherry. Now you can clad with eco-friendly bamboo, walnut, mahogany and sapele to name just a few. Then the guys at 3M got together with the fabricators that made veneers and it was a marriage made in heaven.

So if some unforeseen disaster has caused all of your cabinets to deteriorate, now is a good time to investigate repair. As the procedure has become more popular, the cost associated with the process has dropped considerably, as has people who undergo refacing after it has also become more routine.

Modern science has made giant strides in reshaping people and kitchens. To quote the Wicked Witch of the West, as her face deteriorated, “What a world, what a world”! (Unfortunately, her face, along with the rest of her, has melted to the point that a transplant would not be recommended.) But she could have had a beautiful kitchen.

The four generations of Chevrolet Camaro

admin

The world has come to know four generations of the Chevrolet Camaro and each of these generations was distinct and unique from the rest. This vehicle was first introduced to the public in the United States and the rest of North America in early 1967. It was introduced by the Chevrolet Motor Division of General Motor. It was meant to be a competition for the Ford Mustang. It also used the same F Body platform that was from General Motors, along with other major components that the Pontiac Firebird also used. That is why many people who have come to know and remember the Chevrolet Camaro say and remember this vehicle as the brother of the Pontiac Firebird, or as a brother.

During that period, the Chevrolet Camaro was known for being a compact car. And very soon, it became known that it was a pony car. This meant that it was a competitor to the Ford Mustang. Aside from that reputation, the Chevrolet Camaro was also classified as an intermediate touring car, a sports car, and a muscle car. However, this car brand ended its career in 2002.

The first generation of this vehicle lived from 1967 to 1970. It had a unibody structure from the windshield to the rear firewall. There was a separate steel rail subframe for everything up front. It was lean and aggressive, although the steering was somewhat slow and manual. In the mid-1970s, the second generation of the Chevrolet Camaro hit the streets. This second group sported Ferrari-inspired styling. It became larger, and much heavier. However, because of this, it made the Chevrolet Camaro less powerful.

This second generation ended in 1981. From the year 1982 to 1992, it was actually the time when the third generation Chevrolet Camaros shone. These were the first vehicles to be built without front subframes or rear leaf spring suspensions. They were also the first generation Chevrolet Camaro to boast factory fuel injection, four-speed automatic transmission, five-speed manual transmissions, four-cylinder engines, 16-inch wheels, and hatchback bodies. According to the last generation of this vehicle, it lasted from 1993 to 2002. It had new plastic front fenders, new short arm and long arm front suspension, rack and pinion steering, as well as a sleek new look that made it very popular. for more people.

Developing a marketing strategy? hold a workshop

admin

I am regularly asked to help companies develop a marketing plan. Some are for a new company, others for a new product. My first question is usually “do you have a marketing strategy and is your management aligned with it?”

Otherwise, you may be setting yourself up for failure. For those who need support, I usually recommend running a strategy workshop. The goal is to collect key data points, align the goals of the management team, and determine the next steps to create a go-to-market plan. Attendees should be assorted members of your management team (ie sales, marketing, finance, operations).

Although the workshop can be held in a single day, additional research will be needed if additional information is to be gained and strategic direction confirmed. This may include conversations with internal and external resources (ie customers, partners, target customers) and analysis using available tools.

The strategy workshop will provide you with the basic framework used to develop a marketing plan. The marketing plan will then focus on implementation.

The basic elements to be solved in a workshop are detailed below:

Market segmentation

Start by identifying your customers’ needs and then determine the best way to meet them. Keep in mind that it is nearly impossible for one company to meet every unique need. Instead, it is more efficient to allocate resources to specific customer groups. Because customer needs vary, marketers must identify common needs within similar customer groups and recognize distinctive needs among different customer groups. The first part of the workshop should be for

  • Identify or align market segments based on revenue potential and market size
  • Profile your ideal customer (size, location, capabilities) and identify target accounts by name
  • Create personas to identify who has the buying power at the base of your target company
  • Set market priorities to target with limited resources

Company and product positioning

Identify what you do best, what your target market wants, and why customers buy from you. Then, develop a basic set of messages that will allow your company to quickly differentiate itself. Areas to discuss should include who you are, what you stand for and what you want to stand for, your experience, and what you offer to the market).

Separate from the company is the positioning of the product portfolio itself. Key features, benefits, product names, order details, roadmap, technical and promotional details, and other data needed to develop products and web warranties.

Market analysis

Success depends on knowing your business inside and out. To do this, you should plan to conduct a SWOT analysis for:

  • Identify methods to address weaknesses and threats, and to take advantage of strengths and opportunities
  • Identify a list of major competitors and identify their differentiating characteristics
  • Barriers to entry to this market
  • Market trends, effects on economic prospects, available financing

Set sales and marketing goals

These goals should reflect what you think your business can achieve through marketing in the years to come:

  • revenue forecasts
  • The amount of new business vs. old or repeated business
  • Estimate average transaction size and order/sales cycle
  • Outline a strategy to attract and retain customers to identify and anticipate change
  • Identify marketing objectives based on resources and ability to meet forecasts

Sales channel and partners

Much of the marketing plan and budget will depend on the channels you will be selling on. The type of sales tools, campaign size, and customer retention methods all depend on determining the right mix of marketing and sales programs. Questions to address:

  • What are the short and long term plans to recruit distribution and sales channels?
  • What pricing structure is being offered at these levels?
  • Do you have a list of potential partners and distributors to target by industry type and by name?

Some additional points

Keep in mind that marketing strategies can vary in length and style depending on your business. However, in general, you should have a few additional items in mind before starting a marketing plan:

  • What is your marketing budget (i.e. a percentage of existing or future sales?)
  • How your spend will be allocated and tracked (printed material, web development, promotion, etc.)
  • What is your timing for a soft launch (internal and select customers) and a hard launch (public promotion)?
  • How will you measure success or failure? Leads, revenue, conversions, gross sales?

So what comes next?

Review the end results of your strategy and engage with your management team to ensure agreement on the strategy. Then move on to implementing your strategy using the information you’ve gathered to develop a marketing plan.

Need help creating a strategy or plan? Consult an expert who has worked in her area of ​​expertise, who can extract information using interview techniques, and who has the network of vendors and tool providers to assemble reliable information.
