Answer Upon - Wall Street to Main Street: News, Views and Commentary: April 26, 2006
The following list of Top 10 Business Security Tips can help protect and enhance your company’s security no matter the type or size of business you may have. These basic principles apply to manufacturers, retailers, office buildings and even the sole-proprietor.1) Develop, implement and periodically revisit your company’s security and safety plans. Have all employees sign an agreement that they will adhere to the policies and that they understand the consequences of violating those policies. Place a copy in their employment file. If you don’t have any security/safety plans, write them, (examples can be fund on the internet), or have them written for your company by a security consultant.2) Have an emergency plan at home and your business. This should include what to do and who to notify in the case of any emergency such as fire, theft, robbery, hurricane, tornado, etc.3) Shred EVERYTHING!!!4) Maintain good data hygiene. Protect passwords, change them often and DO NOT write them down and leave them unsecured!

Creating ContentNew websites are being launched daily. In order to compete, webmasters need to find alternative ways of producing themed websites. Highly focused articles are often sought by wembasters. Why? Because content on the web is still king! In order to attract search engines and site visitors, webmasters rely heavily on providing new, innovative and fresh content. If the web site content is rich, visitors will come. If the website content is updated regularly, visitors will return. When evaluating a website's traffic it is easy to see that the low cost of syndicated content can increase a website's value.

A number of publishers provide free content, the only stipulation being that the webmaster serving the content must

Twin suicide attacks targeting security personnel rocked northern Sinai near the Gaza Strip today, two days after triple bombings killed at least 18 people in a resort further south.
It looks as though Fox News’ Tony Snow will be named White House press secretary by President Bush at some point this morning, an excellent replacement for Bush.
US Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice and Defence Secretary Donald Rumsfeld made a surprise visit to Iraq to show support for the country's emerging new government.
Added note:
The film about United Flight 93 that depicts the events of September 11 has premiered at the Tribeca Film and over 90 relatives of the victims of Flight 93 attended the premiere. Robert DeNiro acknowledged the presence of the relatives and the nature of the film as he addressed the audience before the showing.
On a personal note, being a New Yorker and seeing first hand the devastation that day, almost losing my wife in the WTC and attending countless wakes, I have to say that even though for most this may be a hard film to watch, it is a story that must be told so that we do not forget those that were lost and those heroes that never made it back home. I have yet to see the film but for Robert DeNiro to allow it to be shown at the Tribeca Film festival it had to be worthy.

Tid Bits
Caterpillar (NYSE: CAT) ripped through 1st quarter projections with a 48% rise in profits beating the analyst estimate and still the stock of the heavy machinery company was pounded yesterday as it closed at $74.93 down $2.45. But just like Advanced Micro Devices (NYSE: AMD), this company was oversold and for all intents and purposes is still at a discount as it has to potential to go into the double digits this year.
Boeing (NYSE: BA) is not only a company to watch as earnings are on the way but it’s a stock to own. With major contracts being signed with China as of late it’s only a matter of time before that relationship grows a lot stronger, one other avenue of growth is Boeing tapping into the other emerging market India. So there are a lot of opportunities for growth as the stock has the potential to be a $100 stock in the next 6 to 12 months.
Amazon.com’s (NASDAQ: AMZN) earnings slide down over 35% as they announced 1st quarter earnings of 12 cents per share, compared with $78 million, or 18 cents per share, in the same period a year ago. They painted a colorful picture as they gave some guidance for future quarters but proceed with caution as competition is going to get fierce in 2006/07 and the rising oil prices will drive up their shipping cost and will eat into their earning ability..

When people ask me about getting out of debt, they often ask “Doesn’t it take quite a bit more time to be frugal?” Of course, doing work yourself does mean you spend more time doing certain things, but it also means that you will spend a lot less time and money working to pay someone else to do it. Many people work more hours to pay someone else to do a job than it would take them to do it themselves. Of course, if you make a million dollars a year and have no manual dexterity, this article is not for you.Here are some examples based on my own experience with a family of 4. Because your household income is probably not the same as mine, some things that make sense for me will not make sense for you. I suggest that you read my examples and consider your actual costs.Example #1: Buying clothes- One great way to save on clothes is to go to garage sales. This seems very time consuming to many people, but it really isn’t. In the summer, I usually spend 3-4 hours every 2 weeks (May - September) going to garage sale

Having a quality brochure makes a positive impression on a potential customer. It gives the appearance that you’re serious about your business.And it may give you an advantage over competitors who don’t use brochures.Printing technology has made big advancements in the last decade, including high speed, high-resolution color photocopiers and laser printers.This has reduced the need for using printing presses and allows you to print small quantities with less expense. If you’re printing only a few hundred brochures, this is the way to go.If you’re printing in the thousands, you may find it more economical to use a printing press. Your per unit cost can drop significantly.But print production, especially involving color, is a complex subject and ignorance can be costly.“The most important thing a business person should do is ask a lot of questions,” says Phil Lewis of Vancouver’s Generation Printing.“Many small businesses try to design their own brochures without consulting with a printer or

Research has shown that good-looking people have a distinctly unfair advantage in contemporary society over their not-so-attractive counterparts. This unfair advantage is what is known as the Halo Effect!What Is The Halo Effect?The halo effect describes our natural tendency to be much more trusting, tolerant and compliant towards good-looking individuals in contrast to the not-so-attractive...or in other words to be inordinately biased in a positive manner to people who are good-looking.This has far reaching consequences, especially in the work place, as illustrated by the commonplace manner in which employers routinely employ more attractive applicants before the less-attractive, sometimes even when the less-attractive applicant is better qualified!In fact the ramifications of the halo effect are now understood to be a lot more extensive than previously thought.For example we now know that people reflexively and subconsciously ascribe positive traits such as honesty, kindness, intelligence and tal

My husband's car has had a few mechanical problems this year. It's a few years old and is at that stage where little things need replacing. In fact we found it's got to the point where he needs to buy a new one.Anyhow it reminded me of what happened earlier in the year when it was taken to our local mechanic for another repair job . At the time of pick up, Robert the mechanic said he hadn't prepared the bill and will do so later and let us know how much it would be. After 3 weeks, we still hadn't received the invoice and my husband suggested I chase it up and I said 'no'. It's not up to me to follow up with someone whom I owe money to, it's their responsibility. When Tama (my husband) called him, Robert said he had been 'too busy' and still hadn't prepared the invoice.It took about another 2 weeks before we received the invoice of $800. And you know what? I believe if my husband hadn't chased it up, we probably wouldn't have been billed. How crazy is that? (And how crazy was Tama?) This mechanic often complained abou
