Resources for Black-Owned Business Success
NEW YORK (TheStreet) -- If small business owners are the economic engine of the U.S., minority business owners are increasingly providing the power.
The number of black-owned businesses rose a noteworthy 60.5% to 1.9 million from 2002 to 2007, more than triple the 18% rate for businesses established nationally, according to the U.S. Census Bureau's Survey of Business Owners. During the most recent period for which there is Census data, black-owned businesses generated $137.5 billion in receipts, up 55.1% (the government defines black-owned businesses as firms in which blacks or African-American's own 51% or more of the equity, interest or stock of the business.)
Where are these businesses?
New York, Georgia and Florida are the states with the largest concentration of black-owned businesses, while New York City, Chicago, Houston and Detroit were the four cities with the largest concentration of the nation's black-owned businesses, the Census says.
However, of the 1.9 million black-owned businesses, little more than 100,000 had paid employees. (And that was a 13% increase from 2002 figures). Just 14,000 of those businesses had receipts of $1 million or more.
With the largest concentration of black-owned businesses in New York, Chicago, Houston and Detroit, inner-city and underserved communities with large minority populations are likely among the customer demographic. With only 14,000 of these businesses grossing $1 million or more, it's fair to assume that the recent economic recession pushed these numbers down, possibly to dismal levels, for many business owners.
But help is out there, you just need to know where to look.
A growing list of organizations, agencies and online resources are dedicated to providing black and minority business owners with more resources to be successfully self-employed.
A good place to start is any local chapter of the U.S. Department of Commerce's Minority Business Development Agency, the National Black Chamber of Commerce, affiliate chapters of the National Urban League, or social media groups.

cheap in all ways
By JJPawel
from Dayton, Ohio
This filing cabinet is so light, it moves every time you open it. After opening several times, it started getting stuck on the sides. There's some weird prong that sticks out and stops it from opening all the day and makes it open just a little at a time. Over time, all the extra tugging caused the flimsy metal to bend and now I can hardly get it open at all.

Very light weight
By Vic
from Berlin, WI
Very light weight, it works okay for light filing but I would not put any heavy duty files in the drawers. There is a bottom ridge along each side that causes the files to ride up on the rail sometimes. For the price, it works okay as long as you don't require a heavy duty cabinet. Would work well for at home.
Not the best quality for the money
By Office Manager
from Boulder, CO
I thought the contruction was very flimsy. Was disappointed in the quality. It serves the purpose of keeping the honest people out of the file cabinet but we were hoping for better quality for the money

HistoryThe Department of Consumer Credit is a state regulatory agency originally created in 1969 to regulate the consumer lending business in Oklahoma through the newly adopted Oklahoma Uniform Consumer Credit Code. The Code represented the first body of law in Oklahoma comprehensively regulating non-commercial credit, small loans, installment sales and usury. Oklahoma was one of the first states in the nation to adopt a unified code in this field. The Code also exempts Oklahoma from federal regulation, although Oklahoma's rules must be substantially similar to Federal Truth in Lending requirements.
The rules of the Administrator of the Department promulgated pursuant to the above referenced Code and Acts are codified in the Oklahoma Administrative Code at Title 160. The Department of Consumer Credit furthers understanding of the terms of credit transactions; protects consumer buyers, lessees and borrowers against unfair practices; permits and encourages the development of fair and economically sound consumer credit practices, and implements the Uniform Consumer Credit Code in the State of Oklahoma. Duties / ResponsibilitiesThe Department of Consumer Credit is charged with the responsibility of administering the Uniform Consumer Credit Code, which includes provisions with respect to maximum charges, rate ceilings, disclosure requirements, enforcement rights, contract terms, advertising requirements and administration control. That responsibility includes investigation and licensing of creditors designated as Supervised Lenders, and regulation through filing of notice by non-supervised creditors. The Commission also has investigation and licensing duties under the Pawnshop Act, Precious Metal and Gem Dealers Act, Credit Services Organization Act, Health Spa Act, Rental-Purchase Lessor Act and the Mortgage Broker Licensure Act. The Commission conducts customer records exams of licensed Supervised Lenders, Pawnbrokers, Credit Service Organizations, Rental-Purchase Lessors, and Mortgage Brokers.

Why The Video Looks Shaky (Don Ward)
Updated: 06/18/2013 - We did a quick helicopter tour of the Black Forest burn area. Someone asked why the video looks shaky.
Southwest Ice Cream Specialties of McKinney, Texas, is voluntarily recalling some of its Dulce de Leche ice cream containers because they may contain praline pecan ice cream, which has wheat, soy and pecans that could cause problems for people allergic to those ingredients.
Colorado health officials say the recall affects ShurFine Brand Creamery Select (Premium Ice Cream) Dulce de Leche in 1.75-quart containers with a "Best By" date of Nov. 8, 2014; the UPC code 015400224840; and the plant code 48-43202-F. It was packed with a ShurFine Praline Pecan lid but bears the Dulce de Leche labeling on the carton.
There were no reports of illnesses as of Tuesday afternoon.
The product was distributed by stores in Colorado, Arizona, Arkansas, Kansas, Oklahoma, New Mexico and Texas.

1.5V Vengeance Low Profile DDR3 memory is designed to meet the memory specification of the 2nd Generation Intel® Core™ processor family. The Special Edition Arctic White Vengeance Low Profile memory modules operate at the ultra-low voltage of 1.35V, for ultra-quiet systems and other low-voltage applications.
Vengeance Low Profile heat spreaders have a reduced height of 1.03" (26.25mm). They're designed for high-performance systems with extra-large CPU coolers, small form factor system builds, or any other space-constrained application where standard Vengeance memory might not fit.
Each Vengeance memory module is built from DRAM ICs specially selected for performance potential, to allow you to explore the limits of system overclocking.
If you're new to overclocking, full support for Intel Extreme Memory Profile (Intel XMP) makes it easy. Add Vengeance to your XMP-compatible system and it can automatically select the maximum possible overclocking performance, quickly and easily.
If you're a gamer, a system builder, or just an all-around performance enthusiast, you should demand performance and reliability, regardless of your budget. If you need dependable, overclockable memory at an attractive price, Vengeance is a great choice.
Speed is nothing without stability. That's why Vengeance DDR3 memory kits, like all Corsair memory products, are carefully screened and tested to exacting standards. They're backed up with a limited lifetime warranty that lets you buy with confidence.
The performance benefits of installing 32GB of Vengeance or Dominator memory and setting up a 16GB RAM Disk. For full test results, see our blog post at corsair.com/ramdisk.
Building the modules
Building the world's fastest production memory is no easy feat, you need the right combination of hardware and memory ICs. To build just one Vengeance Extreme DRAM module requires screening through over 1000 memory ICs. Check out the video below for more info on how the modules are made.
Building a quality gaming rig doesn't take thousands of dollars if you choose your components carefully. With this in mind I set out to build a gaming rig that could handle any of today's games including Crysis 3 for under $1000. I priced the entire build out on Newegg and came in at $937.92 before tax and shipping. Let's start the build and take a look at the components I chose.
Building a PC today is more than just about performance, aesthetics play a large role as well. Corsair Dominator Platinum memory goes well with any of today's motherboards and our Vengeance memory offers a variety of colors. To give you an idea how your board will look with our Dominator Platinum or Vengeance memory we photographed seven popular motherboards. Here is a list of current motherboards that have photos. Click on the motherboard name to see all of the photos as well as all of the compatible memory. We will continue to add new motherboards so be sure to check our blog or follow us onFacebook.
With the Computex show right around the corner it was time to build some systems to show off some of our newly announced and released products. Among those products is our Vengeance Series C70 gaming case which comes in three colors (Military Green, Arctic White, and Gunmetal Black), I will be using the Military Green version and hopefully this build log will give you a better look at the features and design of the C70. Let's start with the list of hardware I'll be using.
The newly announced 3rd Generation Intel® Core™ processor family is their next generation of 64-bit, multi-core processors built on 22-nanometer process technology. Ivy Bridge is the successors to the Sandy Bridge processor family, and should become available to purchase at retail on April 29, 2012. The new Ivy Bridge processor offerings are the Intel Core i7-3770K, Intel Core i7-3770, Intel Core i7-3770S, Intel Core i7-3770T, Intel Core i5- 3570K, Intel Core i5-3550, Intel Core i5-3550S, Intel Core i5-3570T, Intel Core i5-3450, and Intel Core i5-3450S Processors.

Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization 2.2 Beta
Red Hat came out with its own virtualization product at the end of 2009 and is now driving development of its Enterprise Virtualization for Servers.
The version 2.2 beta is available exclusively for customers. The U.S. Linux provider is basing the hypervisor on KVM technology and appending its virtualization solution with a variety of tools. The 2.2 release should increase maximum memory per VM from 64 GBytes to 256 GBytes. Virtual servers and desktops can also be managed from the same management platform. Import and export of VM images and templates can also be over the industry-standard Open Virtualization Format (OVF).
The hypervisor itself is based on the Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.5 kernel, which means new hardware support. Red Hat mentions the Nehalem-EX CPU from Intel and AMD's Opteron 6000 series as examples.

In fact, these are absolute necessities. We have found the very fine Aurbach staff to be consistently reliable in fulfilling each of our requirments.

Yes, says I. You bumped a pointless topic, for no reason. A rather old topic I might add.

I would forget to put on pants on day and when she gets all offended you can tell her that it is your house :)

now, here's what i don't get - if the girl is heterosexual, and a fun-loving spirit, she won't ask you why you aren't wearing pants - she'll ask you why you didn't start doing this sooner.

because it is a code for a ds game, not meant to be converted by a translator. that's also not all the code, it was to big to fit in one comment...
Apr 21, 2009. 2:24 PMReply
Ahh, I tried to post what the translator said, but instructables went all fussy as well.. What the hell is going on!????
Apr 23, 2009. 2:50 PMReply
well, it is possible that the website used a different "format" for its letters, so to speak. like how when you copy things from microsoft word weird words start poping up. it is because word has different format. word uses up and down quotes, and instructables just has one set of straight quotes. suttle variations like that can cause weird things to popup. my guess is that the translator just had a different way of telling you want it was, so when you copied it here, instructables interperated it differently. ofcoarse, thats only a theory...
Jan 25, 2008. 12:52 PMReply
first you need to know to count in hexdecimal( just like the normal counting system but with a base of 16.) you can learn how to do that by checking my instructable on it. these codes like the one above are used in hacking video games. here is a simple one. it is for the items in your bag in pokemon pearl 94000130 fcff0000 actavator b21c4d28 00000000 b0000004 00000000 one of the zeros here is the part of your bag. 00000890 03e700ea 3e7 is the amount. ea is the item d2000000 00000000 ends the code.

i don't think she meant dumb as in guys can't code hexadecimal code, but she means we are dumb when it comes to girls.
Jan 26, 2008. 7:15 AMReply
It is not dumbness exactly, but more along the lines of maturity (or lack thereof). At very young ages, most guys are a bit behind, but before their 20's, many "catch up" and I dare say a few transcend some gals. So generalization are almost never "always" true. On the other subject of numbers: if you want to give others something to think about, convert the digits of your social security number to senary (also called heximal) or better yet, the entire number to binary digits :-)

Jan 24, 2008. 3:12 PMReply
I dunno mate, but I have to say I think an 11 year old should figure this kind of stuff out on their own, its part of growing up, and if he's got a load of advice off a bunch of adults then he's not going to be on the same wavelength as an 11 year old girl, who proberbly hasn't had a load of advice of a bunch of adults.
Jan 24, 2008. 3:30 PMReply
So you are saying it is being superfluous to add a little guidance rather then let someone "experience burning themselves" ? Sometimes fear prevents others from doing what would BE a learning experience, if they didn't get that little extra push now and then (besides, it is starting to sound like a little "green-eyed" monster is prompting your posts ;-)

Actually, I didn't do so well. I didn't date until I was into my 20's, and then not "on my own". I was 28 before getting married to a Bed hopper (hopped into everyone's bed by mine), and 4 years later divorced.....no, I didn't do so well, and even now am not the best "face to face" communicator. I needed a push here and there when I was younger and didn't get it, and a bit of advice now and again would not have hurt. Too many years spent as a hermit inside my own head did me no good.
And I was kind of teasing about ( And what you mean with the green eyed monster?) the green-eyed monster, otherwise known as "jealousy" ;-)

ok this is really easy. Sit down on the couch near her( but not right next to her) and start talking. If she likes you she will talk back in a friendly way. If she doesn't I would go with the nudity and ice cream.

heh see I have to be able to arugue with them, as a result I've ended up with a slew of pretty ex's who are a bit unthinky... For being a chauvanistic tosser I get on well with feminists... Still make the same mistakes though, no real preference on hair colour, just a whole package of attractiveness...

Yah intellect is a bonus, but not nescisarry, 'cuz then you get the satisfaction of having taught/told them something they didn't know...

Yeah that is satisfying, only I made my ex's dad mad, she was a bit bimboish and I told her things and made sense of things and she started continually correcting her dad, just because I said about one thing then she saw something and ended up with something to do with grammar...

Just walk up, plop on the couch, and say you really bad at this but you would like to get better, because you aren't sure if your cardiovascular system will be able to handle much more. Making girls laugh at a joke you made and told about you is a very good thing.

PARKTON — A decorated Army doctor was killed Sunday when a small plane he was piloting crashed in woods and burst into flames near Parkton Tobermory Road.
Retired Col. Virgil Thomas Deal Jr. was the acting chief of surgery at the Fayetteville VA Medical Center. He had previously served as command surgeon of Special Operations Command at MacDill Air Force Base, Fla., and was commander of Walter Reed Medical Center in Washington, D.C.
Charles Britt, director of Robeson County Emergency Services, said Deal was alone in a single-engine Piper PA-28 Cherokee that was traveling toward Cumberland County when it crashed at about 3:30 p.m. during overcast and rainy weather.
"Cumberland County had it on their radar and then they lost it," Britt said. "Then we got a call saying that a plane had crashed."
The call came from Bob Sealey, who heard the plane's descent from his home on a dirt road near Smith Farm Road, which runs nearly parallel to Parkton Tobermory Road.
"Planes fly over here all the time, but they don't make that dive-bombing sound, like in a World War II movie," he said.
Sealey said his daughter-in-law, while sitting at a kitchen table, saw a "fireball" from a window that overlooks the acres of farmland separating the home from where the crash site.
"When I heard that noise and she saw the ball of fire, I knew something was wrong, and that's when I made the call," he said. "I told the 911 operator, bring everything you've got."
The plane crashed near a dirt road between U.S. 301 and Chickenfoot Road, about two miles from the Cumberland County line.
"We're in the flight path to the runway, so it can happen anytime, but it hasn't happened as long as I've been here and I've been here 13 or 14 years," Sealey said. "But I used to do aircraft maintenance in the Navy, and I know just like anything else, they break."
Deal had been appointed to the Fayetteville VA Medical Center in October and had served in several positions at Fort Bragg.
Deal had commanded both Madigan Army Medical Center at Fort Lewis, Wash., and Walter Reed in Washington, and also served on a special operations medical contingency force conducting U.S. counter-terrorism operations.
Deal was awarded the Defense Superior Service Medal, the Legion of Merit, the Bronze Star, the U.S. Surgeon General's Medal for Exemplary Service and the Armed Forces Expeditionary Medal for his military service.
The aircraft was traveling from an airport in Summerville, S.C., to Fayetteville Regional Airport, according to Kathleen Bergen, a spokeswoman for the FAA. Bergen said that the plane was about five miles southwest of the Fayetteville airport when it crashed.
Debbie Smith, who lives near the crash site, told the Fayetteville Observer that the plane "just sounded like it was flying real low. It sounded like there was a problem with the engine. … It sounded like it was cutting out."
The National Transportation Safety Board will investigate to determine the cause of the crash.

Ye Olde Toy Department
June 25, 2012In my dad's store, the toy department was in the basement of a steel building. There was a big lighted sign inside the front door that said"TOYLAND DOWNSTAIRS" with a big arrow. You would be amazed at how many people wandered to the back and asked,"Where are the toys?" Years ago, toys weren't so popular year-around. Christmas was the big time, and the occasional birthday. I got to specialize in working in the Toy Department because I was out of school over Christmas. It was great fun, but my feet never hurt so badly than after twelve hours on a concrete floor with only tile as a cushion. Dad and I had wrapping contests to see who could tear the paper off the big roll closest to the size needed but not coming out short. Dad almost always won. He had the eye of a carpenter. Everyone was in a holiday mood. In those days before credit cards were common, you could see the results of the day's work in the till; it was very tangible. That felt good when I was in a liberal arts college, studying some esoteric subjects, wondering if I was doing the right thing. Working for a couple weeks in that metal buildings that housed our livelihood made me feel valuable and like I had earned a place in the family. We were very ready for a break when Christmas Day came.

County Voters Return Most Pols to Washington, Harrisburg
For the most part, Montgomery County voters kept Congressional and State Legislative incumbents in their jobs.
It was a big night for Democrats in Pennsylvania on Tuesday, prompting what County Commissioner Josh Shapiro termed a "jubilant" mood at the party's county headquarters in Plymouth Meeting, but most Montgomery County Republicans who were bidding to keep their jobs on Tuesday did so successfully.
Incumbents sweep Congressional races
The county's delegation to the U.S. House of Representatives will remain intact as incumbents easily swept their Congressional Races.
Republican Jim Gerlach easily beat back a 6th District challenge from Manan Trivedi, who lost to Gerlach for the second time, while Pat Meehan enjoyed a similarly convincing win over Democratic challenger George Badey in the 7th District. Mike Fitzpatrick had a still easier time in the 8th District with Democratic challenger Kathy Boockvar, who was defeated more soundly in Montgomery County than in neighboring Bucks County's portion of the district.
Democratic stalwarts Allyson Schwartz and Chaka Fattah, meanwhile, shrugged off their Republican challengers.
Schwartz more than doubled the 13th District vote total of her Republican challenger, Joe Rooney, while Fattah, whose 2nd District includes Cheltenham Township, amassed more than 89 percent of the vote while facing Republican Robert Allen Mansfield and independent James Foster.
A rough night for State Legislature challengers, with one exception
Incumbents also had a big night in State House and Senate races. Democratic State Senator Daylin Leach kept his seat in the 17th District, defeating Charles Gehret, while Democrat Matt Bradford will return to Harrisburg for a third House term after easily brushing aside Republican challenger Jim Phillips in the 70th.
Democrat Madeleine Dean, who defeated Nick Mattiacci last spring in a special election to fill the House seat vacated by Shapiro when he became a county commissioner, beat Mattiacci again in the 153rd.
Republican incumbent Todd Stephens, of Horsham, fended off a challenge from Democrat Will Sylianteng in the 151st district, while Republican Thomas Murt, meanwhile, was easily re-elected over challenger Ronald Kolla in the 152nd.
Mike Vereb dispatched Kelly Devine in the 150th, but the stunner of the evening may have been Democrat Mark Painter's victory over two-time Republican incumbent Tom Quigley in the 146th. Quigley, the former mayor of Royersford, had easily defeated Painter in 2010.
In the 148th District, Mary Jo Daley won the House seat being vacated by fellow Democrat Mike Gerber, defeating Republican challenger Mike Ludwig.

DuPont color survey puts white and black on top, again
Paint company DuPont released its annual Color Popularity Report on Thursday, and for the second consecutive year, white and white pearl are the most popular car colors in the world. Black and black effects are second, followed by silver then gray.
Finally at fifth place a splash of color comes in: red, which is followed by blue, brown/beige, green and then yellow. Black and white make up 44 percent of the cars on the road today; if you add silver and gray to that, the four colors account for three out of every four cars on the road.
In North America, the results were just as boring. White and white pearl won for the sixth consecutive year. Those colors were followed by black, silver and gray. Red was also fifth for North America.
The compact/sport and truck/SUV segments were dominated by white, while black adorns most intermediate/CUV and luxury cars and SUVs. For the first time since 1998, silver did not lead any segments.

The bizarre decision to kill Newsweek.com Analysis & Opinion
Wednesday, June 29th, 2011Mark Coatney has joined at least one Newsweek.com staffer in presenting a very cogent case for saving Newsweek.com on Tumblr.
But if you take a few step backs the decision is, if anything, even more depressing.
For one thing, it demonstrates a clear failure to understand the web. Tina Brown is a creature of print, not of the web; Ryan Tate, for one, has chronicled her difficulties making the transition from the former to the latter. In the world of print, as Coatney says, it&8217;s conceivable that you can take one magazine&8217;s readership and transfer it to anotherthink the way that Life&8217;s readers were steered to Time, or Gourmet&8217;s to Bon Appetit. But you can&8217;t do that online, for reasons which Coatney outlines well and which the new bosses at Newsweek don&8217;t seem to grok at all.
More generally, there&8217;s a clear and obvious move among online media companies towards creating coherent sites for clearly-defined audiences, rather than attempting a one-size-fits-all mush. AOL has lots of sites at lots of different domains, as does Gawker Media and even the New York Times and Washington Post companies. The Newsweek Daily Beast Company is coming into existence owning two valuable and major websites with clearly distinct audiences. There&8217;s almost certainly a strong case not to try to build a third, while Newsweek is still in turnaround mode. But equally it&8217;s idiotic to try to cut those two sites down to just one.

Hotel Santo Stefano is a lovely, quaint hotel. The interior of the rooms is something else! Wall to wall decor of Red and gold with Bed covers to match. I gather this is Venetian in style. It gave the room this very cosy feel. The room was rather small for a double room and the shower cubicle was not designed... More
