My Complete Bathroom Overhaul, the Early Stages
Monday, March 8th, 2010 | Always Online | Comments Off
After ten years with the same ugly striped wallpaper in my bathroom we are finally giving this room a totally makeover. This article will give you info on the products and methods we’re applying to spruce it up.
Before we could do anything we had to first decide what we wanted the new bathroom to be. Since this is our main bathroom and I wasn’t willing to have it be out of commission for more than a day at a time, we limited ourselves to reasonable projects that could be completely quickly and in stages. This will maintain the functionality with the room. This means keeping the tub and shower combination and only replacing the vanity as the major fixture upgrade. Our makeover will include the ceiling, walls and floor, as well as a new vanity, painted medicine cabinet and new faucet fixtures.
Additionally we are stripping off the ceiling (that spackle popcorn stuff) simply because the high moisture from the bathroom is already causing it to fall down around us. I have already started scraping the ceiling down for the ceiling board applying a easy paint scraper tool. Since we’re also replacing the floor (getting rid on the stained vinyl sheeting and replacing with vinyl floor tiles) we don’t have to protect the floor from falling ceiling debris. For the finished ceiling we are utilizing paintable white decorative ceiling tiles (they come in large sheets) and most likely won’t end up painting them. They’re plastic, bought from Menards and cost about $97 for a 4 ft by 8ft sheet. We’ll require four sheets. They are supposed to be glued to the ceiling and with proper overlap have to withstand the moisture of a steamy bathroom.
For the color scheme we chose dark brown walls with white trim. Accents will be dark brown, carmel and white towels, a dark cinnamon brown vanity base with a white sink top and we’re painting the medicine cabinet white (both to save cash and because the 3 way mirror design we have is hard to find in stores today.)
The bathroom has striped wallpaper that has to be stripped off so we’re applying a standard wallpaper scraping tool (round, fits in your hand, makes a million little holes in the paper) and then spraying on a solution to eat the glue backing. So far the paper is coming off in nice huge chunks, which is a large timesaver.

Best Dark Cacao - The Assorted Types of Chocolate
Sunday, March 7th, 2010 | Always Online | Comments Off
Chocolate is a very popular snack and desert. Most people are aware of the three main types (dark, milk and white.) They frequently however do not understand the differences between them. It is important because many people have strong opinions about chocolate. If you’re buying a gift or having them for desert, you should be aware of people’s tastes.
Some nutritionists and scientists have been raving about the health benefits of dark chocolate for awhile. This is because it contains a relatively high amount of antioxidants. Extra Dark chocolate has more of this because it has a much higher amount of cocoa powder. However, this also gives it a bitter flavor and is thus considered to be an acquired taste. So even though you know someone is a health nut, they might not actually want a gift of the best dark chocolate. And if you’re planning some sort of social event, you should choose other types.
Milk chocolate has significantly more milk (as you can tell by its name.) It is the least offensive and most popular type. If you are unaware of someone’s tastes (or you’re hosting a party), milk chocolate is probably your best bet.
Many people do not consider white chocolate to be real chocolate. This is because it does not contain cocoa powder (instead it only has cocoa butter.) Sometimes vegetable fat is substituted for the cocoa butter. It has a creamy vanilla taste to it. This is also an acquired taste so unless you know a person will enjoy it you might want to refrain from using it.

Family Business Management
Sunday, March 7th, 2010 | Always Online | Comments Off
Introduction
What is understood by the term ‘family business management’? Does it mean a business managed by one member of a family or by many members of a family who are engaged in the business? It could be that all the family members who are part of the business have an equal share of the profits and therefore have an equal say in the decisions to be made in the business. Alternatively it might be that the family member designated as the Managing Director makes all the business decisions without necessarily needing to consult other members of the family.
However the business is organised, the understood concept of a family business is that it is owned and run by a family, and members of that family work together to make the business successful. There are many variations of how the management of the business works, but ultimately it is a privately owned company and all the profits are retained for the benefit of the business and the family.
Managing the Family Business
A family run business has many complicated dimensions to the interpersonal dynamics compared to a public company that can make or break the owners. The dynamics of personal and professional issues combined create an added pressure which can hinder good business decisions. Unresolved family conflicts will undoubtedly be carried into the workplace and impact the motivation and productivity of everyone involved.
I have current experience of managing a family business where we find it is important to have our different areas of responsibility. I am the Managing Director and main Project Manager, then we have the Accounts and Admin Manager and the Chairman who presides over the meetings and keeps an eye on the overall direction and functioning of the business. We have found over the years that there are some important issues which have to be resolved in order to work compatibly together. Mainly they are the issues around boundaries. Respecting each other’s different skills and trusting they can do their job well are key elements. If there are new skills to learn necessary training is offered to ensure that person can do the job effectively.
It is important to realize managing any business in today’s environment is a complicated process but when you have the added dimension of family dynamics it can so easily get out of hand. One of the crucial elements to resolve is the historic patterns of relating between family members. Usually there is a lack of awareness that these patterns exist because they are habitual and familiar. However once they start to impact on the effectiveness of the business these issues need to be considered so that changes can be made and the issues resolved. One obvious example is where a child works with a parent. It is usually difficult for the parent to see the child as a responsible adult and still treats that person in the old habitual way. The child might then feel devalued, disempowered and impotent because of the old habit of respecting and obeying the parent. This will produce a lot of frustration, anger or even rage generating manipulative and destructive behaviour.
My search engine marketing department has become the growth area of the web site design company since we outsourced our sales to self-employed sales agents, this means I have employed close relatives to help me get the jobs completed so we have substantial experience with family dynamics!
Leadership
One of the prime issues in a family run business is that of leadership. There has to be a leader whom everyone should be able to respect and is capable of making sound business decisions. If two family members are in a power struggle to be the leader then the business will suffer. I have seen this happen in a firm that was not between family members and it nearly brought the company down. Loyalties become divided and business decisions are often made for the wrong reasons resulting in loss of production and revenue. So when embarking on a family business the leadership needs to be decided at the outset. Once the decision has been made then the rest of the members working in the company need to support that decision and not undermine it.
There are different styles of leadership:-
The Autocratic Ruler -This sometimes works as long as the rest of the family are willing to do what he/she wants. But long term I don’t think the autocratic ruler is particularly good for business. When the time comes for someone else to take the helm there could be no one strong enough to fulfil the role.
An example of autocratic leader is the father of a family friend who was a successful plastics manufacturer. The son was encouraged to follow a path of water ski trick jumping and became a member of the British team. His father did not encourage him to continue in further education with the belief that the son didn’t need it as he would run the business after him. The day came when the son could no longer continue with his sport because of injury and settled down the work in the business. After about six months he had a big falling out with his father and left. The problem then was he had no other skills options open to him other than selling insurance. After about 3 weeks he returned to work in his father’s business because it was very lucrative and had a level of status for him.
The Democratic Ruler - will encourage each individual to speak about their area of responsibility or their view of a business strategy. All members will be listened to respectfully and their view considered. This way a full and fruitful discussion can take place in order to find the best decision for any one topic. New or younger family members will be supported to learn the business and encouraged to broaden their outlook so they become another valuable asset to company.
If the autocratic father had been more far sighted and encouraged his son to further his education, then find work with another organisation for a period of time and left him the option to come and work in the company when he had gained experience elsewhere, he would have benefitted from a more mature, confident, creative and experienced manager who could have brought new ideas to the organisation and participated fully in all aspects of the company policies. The son’s enthusiasm for modern technology could move the business forward into the modern age.Before any children of a family business are eligible to take over, a policy of working with another company for at least two years would benefit the succession in the long run
Conflict Resolution
Family businesses can be a minefield of unresolved conflict and resentment. It is important to find healthy ways of dealing with conflicts before even embarking on the path of family business management. When we first set up together in our family business we agreed that if we were not happy with some behaviour or something that was said, then we would say how we felt and give the other person the opportunity to amend it in some way. The most important thing for us was to listen to each other and respect the other person’s point of view. So when difficult decisions needed to be made to ensure the survival and the profitability of the business, discussion and argument, chewing over the policies and relevant information were signs of healthy processes on which to base sound business decisions.
One of our SEO clients is a family business that builds advertising microsites, such as this one all about presents women love. The mother, daughter and son all work together in one room, every day and most evenings, which is testament to the solidity of their family relationship!
Attitudes and Values
Being part of a family business means for the most part the attitudes and values are shared. In a regular company there are many varied attitudes and values which generate tensions when working together. Listening and understanding each other is Key to good working relationships. One of the benefits of having a family business is intuitively knowing the other members and being able to trust them with your life if necessary. Even if there are disagreements you will know exactly the integrity and reliability of each individual. (Or not as the case may be!)
Well Known Family Businesses
When looking at the commercial world there are hundreds of family run businesses both large and small. Some are very well known companies such as the Ford, Murdoch and the Mars family, others are only known locally like my family butcher. But whatever their size there are only a small percentage of businesses which have been successfully passed down through the generations.
Rupert Murdoch the son of Keith who started the original newspaper empire in Australia, has built up a huge global network of media and entertainment companies worth millions and is still in charge at 77 with his son James as a possible heir. In the case of Ford the family now in the fourth generation own 40% of the voting stock but Mars is still 100% family owned and is not floated on the stock market. Frank and Ethel Mars started the company in 1923 and were responsible for inventing the Milky Way Bar. Their Son Forrest quarrelled with his father and the story goes that his father gave him a significant sum of money and said ‘go and run your own company’. He came to England and set up the factory in Slough making Mars Bars, later branching out into make pet food (Pedigree Petfoods) based in Melton Mowbray. His sons John and Forrest Mars Jr, were educated and trained to take over the business. When old Mr Mars retired he set up a small company making specialist chocolates so he would be kept busy while his sons got on with running the global business.
My local butcher Robert inherited his shop from his father who inherited from his father. The originator had two sons who worked in the shop and now their sons run the business together which is still organised in the traditional way. It is very successful even during these times of crisis. The most famous family firm in the UK of course is the Royal family who live and work the business for life.There is a quite a revolution going on in the retail market today. Whereas shopping over the last 30 years has appeared to become a national pastime, many people are now turning to the internet to shop. So many businesses are waking up to the idea that if they want to survive the recession they need to offer their goods and services on line.
Understanding ecommerce web design is quite simple; it is the systems set up on your website so you can trade your products over the internet. For example these days instead of traipsing hte high street and racking your brain for ideas you can just do a search for 40th birthday presents men to find suitable gifts fo your loved one or freind.
There is an enormous list of larger family run businesses in the world. Often the originator of such family firms build up the business from the ground and once they become very successful the parent hopes the children will carry on the business. Sometimes this happens, but more often than not the children show very little interest in working as hard as their parent. They do not seem to have the motivation or drive to carry the business forward and often do not have the talent of the parent.
A good example of this is the Mower family that produced the Neways products which they sold via multi level marketing across the world. They had seven children and the father, who was an industrial chemist, developed a skin product for his wife who had always suffered badly from Acne. Once he started doing research into products available in the stores he discovered that they were full of chemicals that, as a chemist, he’d had to wear protective clothing when handling because they were considered dangerous. From this beginning he developed other health supplements and through the network marketing they became so successful they made millions of dollars. The children of the family having worked for a time in other companies came in to join the family firm. The stated they would always keep the company in the family and it would never be floated on the stock market.
However as is the way of the world, success spoiled them. The parents suddenly separated and divorced. At first they announced they would continue to run the company together but in the end they sold it to a group in the Netherlands who now run the company. Although the Mower children had worked outside the family firm I always got the sense that they did not manage their departments particularly well and showed none of the talent and drive of either of the parents.
Inheritance
It may be important to tackle the issue of succession in the business especially if the owner of the business has more than one child. In many cases it is inevitable the children will fight over the ownership of the business if it has not been made clear who will inherit. There may be a temptation to skimp on education thereby limiting the development of the successor. To avoid these kinds of situations one idea is to eliminate the feelings of entitlement. It might be just a matter of planning. Having a defined succession guide will enable the children to earn the right to succession and find their effective roles enabling them to work harmoniously together in the business.
Conclusion
Running a family business can be a rewarding and satisfying career with the added bonus of working in a familiar environment where trust is implicit. However family conflict will inevitably affect working relationships so it is preferable and healthy to separate business from personal matters. This allows the business owner to make decisions with less bias and more flexibility for the betterment of the company.
Even if all the members of the family do succeed in having a good business relationship, living separate lives outside of work with exposure to a greater variety of ideas and stimuli, which family members can bring to the workplace, will be of benefit. Probably the most important thing in managing a family business is ensuring that the whole family have a good relationship that will last even if the business doesn’t. Ultimately, blood is thicker than water and family is more important because the business can be replaced but your family cannot.
The glitter of a jewelry pendant
Sunday, March 7th, 2010 | Always Online | Comments Off
The glitter of a jewelry pendant has always fascinated all, across time and space. Jewelry is pure luxury. It brings emotions; it beautifies and helps to boost the wearer personality and prestige. And the best thing is that jewelry gives a lot of or infinite choices to each and every person to indulge in. Jewelry like platinum, gold, diamonds, pearls and pendant are a perfect way to give a permanent symbol of your appreciation. Pendant jewelry is getting popular day by day because of its low pricing and most importantly it bridges the gap between art and adornment.
When pendants are made in pure gold, silver or platinum, proper attention is given to detail, color and design to make the pendants attractive so that it can magnetize a lot of buyers, worldwide. These are often studded with precious stones for an enhanced appeal.
If you have a limited budget you can buy a sterling pendant. What does it mean “sterling”? By definition and international agreement “sterling” silver is 92.5% pure silver and 7.5% usually copper. The 92.5% is why jewelry is often stamped with the numbers 925 or .925.
Why mix pure silver with copper? Sterling silver is mixed to this exact ratio for some very good reasons. Silver tends to oxidize (tarnish) quickly, leaving it a yucky brown color. The 7.5% copper or other metals used to make sterling silver slow down the tarnishing process. Furthermore, pure silver is a very soft metal. Adding another, more durable, metal to the mix ensures that your silver jewelry will last a lot longer, and look a lot nicer down the road. So really, sterling silver is usually the better option when choosing jewelry.
And last but not least, adding another metal - and thus making the silver more durable - makes the substance easier for metal-smiths, jewelers and craftsmen to handle and manipulate into those intricate rings, pendants and necklaces we so adore.
So next time you’re shopping for some new jewelry, or buying an anniversary gift for your girlfriend / wife, you will understand exactly what the salesperson means when they say “This is sterling silver”.
A pendant is basically a great attraction hanging from around the neck and heading for the wearer’s heart. Because of this positioning it is trusted that it accentuates communication skills. Pendants are also for all budgets and tastes. Among teenagers, sterling pendants are more famous because of their some kind of neat, funky and hip-hop look. Necklace pendant stylish look and endless choice is making it more prominent.
Why I Choose a Jogging Stroller
Sunday, March 7th, 2010 | Always Online | Comments Off
I was running on the treadmill at my local gym when a new mother hopped onto the treadmill next to me. Much to my surprise she was holding her baby. I asked her why she was carrying that new baby on a treadmill. She said she couldn’t bear to part with her little one, yet still wanted to get a workout in. After about ten minutes she was extremely tired and her baby was crying. Now what? Well within a few days I saw her again. This time she wasn’t at the gym. She was running outside the gym. She was jogging behind her nice, new jogging stroller. Mom was happier and her baby was happy too.
I have had several moms e-mail and ask “Is a jogging stroller right for me?” Well there are a few factors to consider.
First, if you prefer to run on the treadmill at the gym then you probably won’t need a jogging stroller. However, if you are like me and enjoy running outside and spending time with your baby then a jogging stroller is the best way to go.
When you choose to buy a jogging stroller don’t forget important safety features like a hand brake and wheel locks for easy stopping, safety belts and the five point harness. Your child’s safety should always come first. The five point harness is great for toddlers and small children.
Also consider your child’s comfort. You may want to look into a reclining seat and a canopy. It is also a good idea to wait until your child is holding his or her head up and sitting independently before using the jogging stroller. However, there are safety products you can buy if you would like to use your jogging stroller sooner.
When we’re running in cool or cold weather, we may be hot or comfortable in minimal clothing, but a child is not doing the exercise. Don’t forget to dress your little one in warm clothes, especially if you’re running or walking in the wind. Short runs are best with your child. Competing while pushing your running stroller is not recommended.
I prefer a jogging stroller versus a regular stroller because I enjoy being outside. I have found that my jogging stroller makes it a lot easier to push on non-paved roads and it moves at a faster pace

What Is Internet Marketing Strategy- Here Are Some Quick Descriptions
Sunday, March 7th, 2010 | Always Online | Comments Off
What is Internet marketing?
1. Depending on whom you ask, the term Internet marketing can mean a variety of things. At one time, Internet marketing consisted typically of having a website or placing banner ads on other websites. On the other end of the spectrum, there are loads of companies telling you that you can make a fortune overnight on the Internet and who try to sell you some form of “Internet marketing program“.
Today, Internet marketing, or online marketing, is evolving into a broader mix of components a company can use as a means of increasing sales - even if your business is done completely online, partly online, or completely offline. The decision to use Internet marketing as part of a company’s overall marketing strategy is strictly up to the company of course, but as a rule, Internet marketing is becoming an increasingly important part of nearly every company’s marketing mix. For some online businesses, it is the only form of marketing being practiced.
2. Internet marketing is relatively inexpensive when compared to the ratio of cost against the reach of the target audience. Internet marketing is a fantastic way to bring more profit to your business. Internet marketing is a cost effective way to deliver quality buyers for your services at little cost compared to most types of marketing services.
Search engines are important to your Internet marketing strategy because according to a recent study, some 85% of all Web site traffic originates from either a search engine or directory. Search Engine Optimization (SEO) is one of the most successful tactics used in e-Marketing today.
3. Internet marketing is the business of both advertising and selling goods and services over the Internet. This form of business is ever-increasing in popularity, with millions of people now making purchases on the Internet. Internet marketing began in the early 1990s as primarily a means of product description, consisting merely of text descriptions. As technology progressed, Internet marketing rapidly advanced to include pictures and other rich graphics as part of advertisements for products and services. After realizing the remarkable potential of this means of marketing, Internet-based companies started opening their virtual doors for business. As opposite to what are now known as “brick and mortar” operations, these e-businesses offer their products and services to a mounting number of consumers, conducting all, or almost all, of their business in the virtual world of the Internet.
There are many forms of marketing on the Internet. For more details go to www.split-test-profits.com Among them are article marketing, blog marketing, e-mail marketing, search engine marketing (to include search engine optimization), banner ads, pay-per-click ads, and pop-up ads. It is important to note that each of these forms catches the attention of the target market in different ways, and some may be more effective than others depending on the product or service, the target market, and the strategy and goal of the business marketing itself. Among the business functions that may require use of different means in their strategies are customer service, sales, public relations, information management, and others.
4. Internet marketing is still a complete mystery to a large majority of Internet users. For many users, Internet marketing is seen as some foreign area of the web, populated with silly get-rich-quick schemes and unsavory characters ready to rip off the innocent and uninformed consumer at the click of a mouse.
Worldwide there are now over a billion Internet users, representing one large global consumer base or marketplace. The total amount of goods sold online has been steadily increasing each year as the Internet gains in both popularity and familiarity. Studies have shown people shop online because of lower prices, a wider selection of products, easier comparison shopping, and many just prefer not having to travel to stores to make a purchase.
5. Think of your website as a local shop that is situated down a dead end street. To succeed your customers need to know where you are and what you are about.
First of all this means having good road signs and there being a road layout that makes the street easy to get to. In the online world the road signs and layout are the website software and optimised content and they are just as important if you want online customers to find you.
6. Internet marketing is the research of the target audience, studying the market situation and predicting changes for the online market, plus the package of actions aimed at bringing potential customers to the website by improving the web site’s visibility in search engines and placing all sorts of ads throughout the Net. An integral part of the Internet marketing is the web site’s visits statistics.
Any of your actions toward increasing sales are to be evaluated in terms of their efficiency. The quality analysis of the Internet statistics will help you understand your prospective customers’ demands and interests, evaluate the attraction and retention methods that are good for the customers and reveal what makes them to not get interested in your products or services.

The “Sea Wolf” (the vessell you’ll be on) was desgned and built in Yakutat for this area and this style of fishing. Many years of experience and study have found its way into the design and character of the hull and cabin to make it a very stable, very spacious, very comfortable, and extremely sea-worthy vessel
