Small businesses are losing optimism and the confidence of business owners has reduced compared to what it was in February last year. XSM web development services can help with quick recovery at http://www.connecttotheworld.com.
Denver, Colorado (PRWEB) February 25, 2013
The National Small Business Association (NSBA) recently made its annual economic report public. The findings of the report showed that small businesses are losing the little confidence they had left from last year. 86% of the small business owners believe that the worst is still not over and the recession is likely to be prolonged. Keeping this in mind, they have put an indefinite hold on their growth plans. The news was published on Fox Business on the 6th of February at http://bit.ly/TL1pJS and stated that there has also been a 4% decrease in projected employment size. Most of this is a result of economic uncertainty and the general concerns that business owners have about it.
Most small business owners would agree that the effects of the recession have stubbornly taken hold of the economy, stated XSM. Since business owners are reluctant to invest in growth opportunities, there seems to be no chance of leaving this recession behind. However, if confidence is restored among the business sector, the economy might begin to move forward. XSM proclaimed that business owners can start off by investing in website development. This brings small businesses to the modern side of the corporate world. Perhaps the greatest benefit of websites is the increased visibility they promise. Visibility leads to greater brand awareness, sales, and ultimately greater revenue as well. Companies looking to reap the profits of foreign markets can do so by having an online presence that caters to foreign markets and consumers.
This can also help save small businesses from the negative effects of the local recession.
XSM offers top-of-the-line custom web development packages that can be bought at reasonable rates. Websites developed by XSM can easily be SEO integrated. Small businesses are taught on how to manage them effectively so that they can do so in the future without any hassle and link building services are also offered.

Li Biao, one of the few outstanding solo percussionists in the recent international music stage, win the world acclaim as an exceptional solo percussionist in the contemporary era by virtue of his extraordinary musicality of the percussion instruments as well as his unique demeanor. Born in Nanking, China, Li Biao began his musical studies at five years old. In 1982 he entered the Central Conservatory of Music in Beijing to study percussion. In 1988, he was selected by the Chinese government as the first percussionist to study in Moscow at the Tchaikovsky Conservatory. Learning from V. Sniegerew, Li Biao graduated with a master degree of first honor. After winning the DAAD scholarship, Li continued his music education at the Munich Conservatory of Music in Germany and graduated with a Master Diploma. He ever attained rewards in many international prestigious competitions during his pupillage, such as the first Debrecen Percussion Competition, he became the first Chinese, who won the international percussion competition. As a talented soloist, Li is competent in performing an extensive range of musical work. Li Biao gave a great number of solo recitals during various music festivals, cooperated with renowned orchestras and chamber ensembles including the Bavarian Radio Symphony Orchestra, the Bamberg Symphoniker, the Verona Opera, the Czech Philharmonic Orchestra, the Orchestre National de Lyon, the MengPei Column's Opera, the Franz List Chamber Orchestra, the Polish Radio Symphony Orchestra, the Bulgarian National Symphony Orchestra, the China National Symphony Orchestra, the China Philharmonic Orchestra, the Beijing Symphony Orchestra, the Shanghai Symphony Orchestra and many others around the world, working with leading conductors such as Mstislav Rostropovich, Christoph Eschenbach, Lawrence Foster, Jonathan Nott, just to name a few. Li has performed his percussion pieces in more than 70 countries. Performing percussion concerto repeatedly at "Pay Attention to Classical Music" - the most influential European classical music opinion program, recorded his percussion albums with renowned labels such as EMI and Teldec. He is the professor at the Central Conservatory of Music in Beijing from 2003 and Hochschule für Musik "Hanns-Eisler" in Berlin 2006. He is the first Asian percussionist who was offered the title of professor of the prestigious music institute in the world. In 2008, Li Biao and his percussion group were invited to perform at the closing ceremony of the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games in 2008 and 2009. Li Biao led his percussion group to hold a series of concerts in 12 cities in China. From April to May 2009, Li Biao delivered 22 concerts on a trans-era tour of eight European countries.

He tweeted commit watch is on last night 12 hours ago.
...talks about how UConn hasn't been in contact and how they're out. (HT: UMHoops)
I keep seeing the name pop up, but I don't recall noticing it until very recently.
May you have a strong foundation
When the winds of changes shift
He runs themblock.com, which now that Tremendous is no more, is the only free 100% recruiting website left for M fans. I prefer here but there is a much more specific niche focus there
what is his twitter handle?
Having the number 1 recruiting class means nothing without good coaches to mold the players into champions!
Since when is Mack Brown a credible source.
"Are you an official here?Because you've officially given me a boner."
He was the first to predict Ferns to Michigan last year.
903 wins most in college football
Probably because there are a bunch of recruits on campus...
"Michigan Defense" is dominating everything, in every aspect of life. That's a rough definition.
-Craig Roh 10/29/2011
Watch = conditions are right for it to happen.
Warning = it's happening.
speculation, speculation...
3-3-5 til the day I die y'all
He also said that we'd get a commit this weekend last weekend so we'll see.
903 wins most in college football
Commit watched engaged!
"I'm not a vegetarian b/c I love animals. I'm a vegetarian b/c I hate plants"
legwork and built ties a few recruits & parents.
Hopefully he provides basis after the commitment as it could be any of a bunch of guys.
"Everybody wants to be a hero, so to speak. But it takes everybody." - Charles Woodson
That's the type of tough defense we need. It is possible that Michigan doesn't foul enough... they're not playing tight enough defense.
Stop the uniform changes! Contact Dave Brandon 734-764-9416.
I don't trust this coach brown. I get the feeling that he could mug me at any time..
Bears Beets Battlestar Galactica
He's part of the 247 staff now. Unfortunately you have to pay for most of the recruiting content.
Blank.....Blank......You're not looking at the big picture here.
Went to 247Sports and is now paywalled on 90% of his stuff.
He got bought by 247 and now you have to pay to get the information
I heard he went to 247.
"When your team is winning, be ready to be tough, because winning can make you soft. On the other hand, when your team is losing, stick by them. Keep believing" - Bo Schembechler
Or something like that.
But what do Mr. Green and Professor Plum say?
Blank.....Blank......You're not looking at the big picture here.
Said that he's got a wrench and is about to meet up with Craig James.
will go down in history as the greatest dead-hooker-avenger of all time. beautiful.
Spending the weekend in Vegas. Got plans later and there will be no dudes there. Just some lovely ladies.
He's really going out on a limb considering we have a bunch of kids on campus.
Yes I got him a gift. He had a kidney stone. You piss a rock through your pecker, you deserve more than just a pat on the fucking back.
It's February. With Coach Hoke we're always on commitment watch.
"that's why you don't go to Ohio State, Lawrence"
I think he might have gone to 247. Are there any other posters who might know?
I am currently doing something similar to this:
So hot. Milk was a bad choice.
Any word yet if Green is considering transferring because a walk-on has his number?
Ok guys, these Tremendous jokes are getting old. I don't want these to continue 24/7..
at the Michigan/Illinois game this afternoon. When I asked him about a commitment coming he just smiled and shrugged his shoulders. Couldn't tell anything from that but he was headed down to talk with the football recruits that were at the game. Hood had a great visit. He's the 5* RB who stated yesterday that he had a great time and that Michigan was tremendous. Said he was so excited he had to go home and settle down and think about the visit.
A little bit frustrating that the recruiting insiders have all gone pro. I can certainly understand (and would probably do the same in their shoes), but it'd be nice to see Mgoblog be the first stop for interesting recruiting tidbits once again. My twitter steam is fully of "visit reaction from [insert recruit here] $VIP".
We lost tremendous!!!
Hold me TomVH!!! Oh wait ...
GMAT score =800 = Defensive POTY

***NOTE:: I do not claim to even be knowledgeable much less an expert on the steampunk and cyberpunk styles . . . I'm merely an intrigued outsider. I've always been interested in this type of stuff but in reality there are people much more in tune to this universe than me. If you're one of those people please feel free to critique my design and terminology but please remember to be constructive and follow the "be nice" policy!
***Safety Note/Disclaimer*** I've been around power tools since I could walk and so there's a lot of safety issues that are innate to me that I probably will fail to mention. These powerful devices are extremely dangerous so extreme caution is required if you plan to follow these instructions. Never operate any of these tools without someone else present or at least within earshot. Hearing and Eye protection are a must and for heaven's sake keep your fingers away from anything sharp and/or moving!
Also, the finished product will be dangerous as it IS functional and it is up to YOU to make sure you're being safe with it.
Step 1: The Bowels of the Beast
and unleashed its swift and horrible fury
Okay so the guts of this thing are really straightforward: it's basically a spud gun and there's a lot of instructables and other online resources that tell you how to make this so for mine I will be very brief and quite vague . . . this part of the instructable is not sufficient for a first timer to create a spud gun but should be enough for someone who's got a little experience.
- 2" PVC end cap
- two 2" PVC couplings
- a section of 2" PVC for attaching the above
- 2" to 3/4" PVC reducer
- 3/4 PVC nipple
- 3/4" Solenoid Automatic Sprinkler Valve
- 3/4" PVC Male to female threaded 90 degree elbow (both ends threaded)
- 3/4" PVC Male to female threaded 90 degree elbow (only male end threaded)
- 2 foot 3/4" PVC Pipe(longer is possible but I liked the look of the 2 footer)
- PVC primer and Cement (yes of course it has to be PVC cement not ABS)
- a roll of teflon tape
- brass 1/4" shraeder valve (home depot failed here but ace had this)
- Two brass 1/4" hose barbs (one end barbed the other threaded)
- A Blowgun (the compressor type not the Amazonian)
- small hose clamps
- 2' section of pressure rated 1/4" Inside Diameter Hose (Homedepot failed again but ace had this)
- a vise is useful for holding things still
- a hand saw
- Cresent wrenches the right size to turn the barbs and shraeder valve
- a tap set (optional but really useful)
- a drill and assorted bits
- screwdriver (though a screwgun is quicker)
While that's drying go ahead and unscrew the solenoid from your sprinkler valve, unscrew the top and open the valve up. Inside you'll see a rubber diaphragm. Off to one side of it you should see a little plastic spike with a hole in it. carefully remove the valve and take this spike out from the other side. If you're inquisitive like me go ahead and play around with the valve to make sure you fully understand how it works.
Now there's 2 types of valves out there: one type has a guide rod in the middle of the diaphragm and one does not. If yours does then you'll need to drill off to one side. Mine did not so now I drilled a hole through the middle of the top and tapped it for one of the barbs. Wrap a barb's threads in teflon tape and screw it into the hole with the wrench. Don't screw it in so far that it interferes with the diaphragm or you'll get a weird honking noise every time you fire it. I sorta liked this accidental honking so I left it in (see video). Now your sprinkler is modded. You can also buy a pre-modded one from a couple of online stores but where's the fun and learning in that!?
Take your modded valve and screw it onto the other end of the nipple (with teflon tape) making sure the arrows on the valve point FROM the tank TO the other side(barrel) screw your elbows together and into the other end of the valve and then insert your barrel. I had an iron sight from an airsoft sniper rifle but since the rifle has a scope I never put the sight on. I applied this now for aiming and coolnes' sake. Remember steampunk modding is all about found objects! But making a sight from scratch is possible too with a bit of effort.
The other barb goes into the back end of the blow gun(more teflon).
The NEXT DAY (pleas DO wait for your cement to dry completely) I put the hose onto my valve and blowgun to test the thing out and you can see the completed but unpainted assembly in the pictures.
If this is your first spud gun these instructions are certainly inadequate but fear not! Spudfiles has a good tutorial on the valve mod with discussion and troubleshooting and this site has plenty of other tuts on the subject.
If you're curious, the valve has 2 chambers in it . . .one above the diaphragm and one below. The diaphragm has a hole that lets both chambers share equal pressure and so the center of the diaphragm (held by a spring) presses on the outlet keeping it sealed. when the blowgun is released the pressure from the top half exits faster than the small hole in the diaphragm will allow the tank pressure through and so we end up with a massive pressure difference very quickly. this pulls the diaphragm up and the pressure exits through the previously blocked hole and out the barrel. this all happens faster than greased lightening and so much more energy is conserved than if you use a simple, slow ball valve. This conservation leads directly to superior performance.

Before there was assault rifles, there were assault air guns:
it sounds like if the epoxy you're using is breaking off the rubber then it isn't getting a good bond with it. You'll need to locate something that actually bonds with rubber as opposed to just sticking to it. I doubt jbweld would work unfortunately since it's not meant to give a flexible bond... I wonder if something rubber based would work better. You might try using a bit of inner tube and some rubber cement on both sides of the hole? Just make super sure to follow the instructions properly or you won't get the best of bonds (more of a general for everyone's info as opposed to being directed at you). They also have tire patch kits at auto stores that may even work out better for you...tires are made to be under pressure so it stands to reason the glue in those is rubber-bondable...
Failing that you could attempt to create a new diaphragm or source another hole-less one. How big is the hole?
and what do you use to fill the tank? and about how long does it take?
I'm working on a modified version of this right now!
I'd like to attach a pressure guage on the tank somewhere, but i dont know where would be best, any suggestions?
also i think i might build/modify some sort of battery powered air compressor that can be carried around on a belt or on the backpack to speed up the whole rea filling the tank thing
As far as a pressure gauge goes: generally you'd want to put it somewhere that lets you go through 2 layers of pipe (for structural reasons). I'd personally place it near the top if it was fixed or perhaps attach a barb, some hose, and then the gauge can go literally anywhere (it could go inside a hollowed out portion of the stock for example) and if you used steel braided hose it could look pretty stinkin' legit (imho of course). Just go with what appeals to you most :D
and i had to order the shrader valve online too ($2 on amazon. aka Brady air intake valve) because lowe's and home depot don't stock anything like it and the closest ace hardware is 90 miles from my house and out of stock
Oh, by the way...
Ever thought about pumping it up with an air compressor? that pump has got to be incredibly hard to get up to 70 psi.
If you like steampunk bands, check out Abney Park!
and howdo you refil the air canister?
There is a pellet rifle made called the "TALON" which uses a mini scuba pressure tank of 2000 PSI.
They also sell a hand pump similar in design to yours that will pump up the tanks to 2000 PSI.
The TALON is a single shot 1200 ft/sec .177 or .22. Really sharp looking rifles.

I 100% agree with the OP. Linkin Park is a completely different band, witch makes me sad. I feel as if they don't deserve to call themselves "Linkin Park" anymore.
Bands like LP were one of the main reasons I got into heavy music in the first place. I was realtively happy with Meteora, but as soon as I finished listening to Minutes to Midnight, I was very disappointed.
I don't even care if LP doesn't read this, I'm just happy I'm not the only one who feels this way.
PS - to those who say that change is a natural thing, yes I agree. But this isn't the same thing. LP changed their music from a rebellious type of hard rock of a soft Coldplay-like genre. That's not natural.
I'm sorry the album isn't to your liking.
Linkin Park don't really come here, the liklihood of them seeing this is pretty low.
If you want to know for sure that they got your message, you may write to them here:

8383 Wilshire Blvd.
Suite 1050
Beverly Hills, CA 90211
Linkin Park
Machine Shop Recordings, Llc.
P.O. Box 36915
Los Angeles, CA 90036
Or you could try leaving a comment on one of the band's pages, or Mike Shinoda's blog.
There is no guarentee, however, that they will be able to read it, especially considering they are touring and promoting the album right now.
In general, only other fans like yourself are reading this forum :)
I guess I would say, we as people don't tend to stay rebellious forever, which is I think probably a good thing, 'cos constant rebellion would probably just end up getting us all stomach ulcers ;) So I think it kind of is natural that LP would create less rebellious music as they went along, and I'm glad of it because it's nice for things not to always remain the same. And I would hardly call 'Blackout' soft Coldplay-like music! :D :D ;P
Anyway, have a nice one :)

i agree.LP are dead they are done.but i have no idea why you post this .LP dont give a fck what their fans think about them.they was real between 2000-2006 and thats it.then they became soft and shitty band.every other band that wants to evolve wants to make harder and heavier music not softer and shitter.sry LP but im done with you too.
Damn, so many people who don't understand the concept of being true artist.
Yes they changed their style, but what if they made the same style albums for 12 years , they would become mainstream and overused just like every pop-band. You gotta give them credit for making new style's and trying to prove everyone that they can change and improve.
They didn't make any new style. I'm sick of seeing people say that they did something never done before.
Another example of someone upset because their idols aren't made of stone. Seriously? They were supposed to sound the same after over 10 years? Quit bitching. Appealing to what sells and what whiny fans want is selling out. Just because their songs expanded to something deeper than a song for someone to play when a relationship isn't going right is a plus in my book. I believe they have developed, expanded and matured as artists. And glad they did, instead of being stuck in the past.

Support for lesbian, gay and transgender teens
Published at 11:12, Thursday, 24 May 2012
HOMOPHOBIC bullying has been named as an issue in at least one of Copeland's secondary schools – but how isolated is that?
The youth organisation Inspira (formerly Connexions) runs a weekly lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) group for teenagers. Members meet weekly in Whitehaven to discuss issues affecting them and get involved in a host of activities.
Josh Lowrey, 16, who attends the group, said: "All we are doing is realising who we are and being that person."
Over the past three years, members have attended the Blackpool Pride and Manchester Pride events, met up with another LGBT group, Pink, in Carlisle and have gone to the Steam Packet Inn in Workington.
Workshops are also held which deal with topics from sexual health to staying safe on the internet. Recently police officers visited the young people to get their views on issues relating to the hate crime of homophobic bullying.
Members have spoken to The Whitehaven News about their experiences and the pressures they have faced. They say they want to be accepted by their peers and family for who they are and feel they are prejudged and have often been bullied because of their sexuality.
Daniel Dixon, 19, has been attending the group since it began. Daniel came out as a lesbian at 13 years old as he didn't know at the time that he was transgender. Last year he officially changed his name.
He said: "When I told my family they didn't and still don't accept it.
"I don't get the support from them so coming here really helped. My friends are much better in supporting me.
"I like the week-to-week support you get in the group and I think things like this need to be promoted.
"I went through school getting bullied – one time I walked down the road and got jumped on by six people who battered me. I had to call the police.
"When I was in school I was told by a teacher that if I wasn't prepared to deal with the consequences I shouldn't have come out.
"There are some people who don't call me Daniel just to annoy me. You find out who your real friends are. You don't have to hide who you are any more.
"In this group, you get the support that you need."
Josh, who has been going to the group for two years, said: "The group is good as there are lots of people to talk to. There is a lot of support and you can get good advice from other people.
"There aren't many of us and it would be good to meet new people. It would be nice to advise them on how to cope with things."
While Tristan Parker, 17, said: "I like to come along to the group as I feel it's good to mix with other people with different sexualities. You can be more open about stuff in this group compared to other groups."
The group said that gay, lesbian, transgender and bisexual issues are not widely discussed in schools, which can make it difficult for them to ask questions or find support.
One teenage girl says she attends the group because people accept her for who she is while another girl says she enjoys meeting new people. She has not yet come out to her parents but says she is benefiting from the support of the group as she is learning how to deal with being a lesbian.
Last Thursday was the international day against homophobia and transphobia, where members of the group visited Workington police station to raise a rainbow coloured flag as a symbol of gay pride.
It celebrates lesbian, gay, bisexual and trans individuals and communities and encourages people to take action against homophobia.
Members met Chief Superintendent Steve Johnson and youth engagement officer PC Keith Hunton.
A skills and development adviser at Inspira said: "The local police are very supportive towards LGBT communities and agreed to fly the flag to show that they are also keen to stamp out homophobia."
To find out more about the group, contact the Whitehaven Connexions office on 01946 695541.

Liberal Premier Christy Clark met with most of her candidate caucus Thursday in Vancouver, the first time since winning a stunning re-election campaign on May 14.
8 minutes agoThe personal use of illegal drugs, including heroin and crack cocaine, should be decriminalized as part of a federal-provincial strategy to tackle drug abuse, a B.C.-based national coalition of drug policy experts argue. In a report to be released Thursday, the coalition denounces the Harper government's aggressive war on drugs, which puts the emphasis on law enforcement while steering money away from harm-reduction initiatives like Vancouver's supervised injection site.

What is the Dharma?
By Sangharakshita
Refreshing, unsettling and inspiring, this book lays before us the essential Dharma, timeless and universal: the Truth that addresses the deepest questions of our hearts and minds and the Path that shows us how we can renew our lives.
What is the meaning of life, and how can we be trully happy, we ask.In Buddhism the answer is to be found in the Dharma, which means both the truth and the path. Guided by a lifetime's experience, Sangharakshita, founder of the Triratna Buddhist Order, tackles the question of What is the Dharma from many different angles. The result is a basic starter kit of teachings and practices, which emphasises the fundamentally practical nature of Buddhism.
A community audio book read by Tejasvini.
