HP Global Human Rights Policy
Respect for human rights is so directly related to integrity and performance that they are inextricably linked. Respecting human rights is a core value at HP and is embedded in the way we do business. Investing in ethical practices while delivering financial results is a responsibility HP takes seriously.
Human rights are the fundamental rights, freedoms and standards of treatment to which all people are entitled. HP upholds and respects human rights as reflected in the United Nations Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UDHR), the UN Global Compact, and the UN Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights, which further clarify government responsibility to protect human rights against third party abuses, business responsibility to respect human rights, and a joint responsibility to remedy if rights are not upheld.
This Policy focuses on the areas that have been identified as priorities for our industry and broadly defines how HP will respect human rights in our operations.
Through HP's commitment to leadership in integrating respect for human rights worldwide into our operations and value chain, HP will in practice:
- Comply with laws and regulations where HP does business and adopt and apply international standards where laws are less stringent
- Complete due diligence to avoid complicity in human rights violations
- Regularly assess human rights risks, policies, and impacts and provide visibility of the results to senior executives
- Provide access to independent grievance mechanisms immediately to raise concerns or identify adverse human rights impacts
- Promptly investigate allegations and pursue action to mitigate any adverse human rights impacts
- Promote continual improvement through capability building for our business partners, terminating relationships only as a last resort
- Advance our human rights practices through a journey of cumulative progress
- Report transparently on our efforts
HP has more than 70 policies that guide action in more specific areas. However HP's key policies are:
HP Standards of Business Conduct (SBC) sets non-negotiable global expectations for our behaviors, decisions, and actions and defines how we embed integrity, respect, and fairness into business operations. It represents the highest level of guidance for our employees. The SBC promotes respect for human rights through guidance on a wide range of subjects, including a safe and respectful working environment, anti-bribery requirements, privacy, responsible marketing, environmental stewardship, and community involvement.
As part of our implementation, HP supplements the SBC with the following more specific policies: HP Nondiscrimination Policy; HP Harassment-free Work Environment Policy; HP Best Work Environment Policy; and HP Open Door Policy.
Policies supplementing the SBC for Suppliers, Partners and Contingent Workers include:
- HP Supplier Code of Conduct (Electronic Industry Code of Conduct) establishes standards for HP and our supply chain to ensure that working conditions are safe, that workers are treated with respect and dignity, and that business operations are environmentally responsible and conducted ethically. The Code outlines standards for labor, including: freely chosen employment, child-labor prohibition, working hours limitations, humane treatment, appropriate wages and benefits, non-discrimination, and freedom of association.
The Code also outlines standards for health and safety, business ethics, and the environment. Finally, the Code outlines the elements of an acceptable system to manage conformity to its requirements and includes guidance for grievance mechanisms and corrective action. We respect employees' rights to organize in labor unions and engage in collective bargaining in accordance with local laws and established practice.
- HP Partner Code of Conduct requires Partners to maintain high standards of business ethics; become familiar with and comply with all laws that are relevant to their HP Partner status, including the extraterritorial laws of all countries that govern the conduct of HP, such as the United States Foreign Corrupt Practices Act ("FCPA") and similar anti-corruption laws in other countries; and stay abreast of all legal and regulatory changes that are relevant to their HP Partner status.
- Contingent Worker Code of Conduct ensures all suppliers, consultants, and contractors doing business with HP agree to deliver their services in a manner consistent with HP's code of ethics (Standards of Business Conduct).
HP Supply Chain Social and Environmental Responsibility Policy.
HP Global Master Privacy Policy demonstrates our respect for the right to privacy and guides the collection, processing, transfer, use, and disposition of personal information. Our privacy policies reflect current global principles, standards, and best practices on handling personal information. These principles include appropriate notice, meaningful choice, transparency, and accountability regarding the collection and use of personal data. HP privacy policies and data protection requirements extend to all persons or agencies that manage personal data on HP's behalf.
How to Report a concern
HP encourages anyone with a concern to speak up and report things that don't seem right. We provide multiple channels, making it easy to ask questions or report a concern.
- Contingent Worker Code of Conduct
- HP Environment, Health, and Safety (EHS) Policy
- HP Global Master Privacy Policy

Festival of media Asia 2014 (Singapore)
The Festival of media, in recent years, has been among my favorite media related conferences/gatherings.
It does help to understand what is currently happening in the media/advertising sector, but more importantly, where is it all heading. You get to meet people of course, and that is always exciting. I am not too much of an extrovert, but do like meeting people and sharing stuff.
So I have been visiting this festival since the past 2 years (and have been blogging about experiences)- and this year was no …

Now Open: 2015 Mary Bussman Emerging Female Composer Contest
Twin Cities Women's Choir (TCWC) seeks original, unperformed compositions from emerging female composers for SSAA choir – either a cappella or with piano accompaniment – that speak to the theme of Illuminations: A journey that may include embracing the darkness along with celebrating the return of light. The composer of the winning piece will receive a cash prize of $1000, an archival recording of the premiere performance in November, 2015, in Minneapolis, MN, and a possible future TCWC commercial recording. Application Deadline: 6/15/2015
ENCORE! and TCWC in the 2015 Northern Voice Festival
2015 marks the first ever Northern Voice Festival! We're proud to be participating in this choral festival, celebrated across Minnesota this spring, with the motto Everybody. Sing.
Modeled after the wildly successful Minnesota Fringe theater festival, the Northern Voice Festival Days will showcase more than three dozen ensembles during two days, with over 2,500 singers participating in seven venues during 45 hours of performances in front of thousands of audience members.
The festival month stretches from April 10 to May 10, and features self-produced performances from groups across the state of Minnesota, promoted by the Northern Voice Festival. Our Divas & Desserts concerts on May 8 & 9 are part of the festival month.
Two festival days — Saturday, April 11 in Minneapolis and Saturday, April 25 in St. Paul — feature festival-specific performances from a number of groups. ENCORE! is performing on April 11, at Hoversten Chapel, at 4:15 pm.
You can participate in the festival by attending any group's self-produced performance, by buying tickets to individual festival day performances, or buying passes for one or both festival days.
We're proud to be a partner in this first-ever Northern Voice Festival. Help us make it a success! See the calendar below for an idea of all the wonderful events taking place in our statewide choral community.
This activity is made possible by the voters of Minnesota through a grant from the Minnesota State Arts Board, thanks to a legislative appropriation from the Arts & Cultural Heritage Fund.
Christina Brice Dolanc Wins 2014 Mary Bussman Emerging Female Composer Composition Competition
The Twin Cities Women's Choir will debut "The New Moon" by Christina Brice Dolanc, winner of the 2014 Mary Bussman Emerging Female Composer competition, at its first major concert of the season, the annual "Illuminations: The Return of Light to Our Lives."
Christina Brice Dolanc is a composer/arranger in western Pennsylvania. She has a BM and MM in violin performance, currently plays in several area symphonies, and teaches a full private violin lesson studio. She also is the first violinist and coordinator of The Dolanc String Quartet, which plays professionally in the Sacramento and San Francisco Bay area.
Over the last 15 years, Christina has performed and recorded background strings for mainstream Indie Rock bands, worked as a professional music transcriber for Bay area theater companies, and arranged and composed a collection of over 100 works for string quartet. Since 2012, she has turned her composition focus to choral works inspired by her involvement in a choral group based in Davis, CA [The Vocal Art Ensemble (VAE)], 2008-present, and her choral singing training as an undergraduate at Missouri State University with Dr. Guy Webb, 1994-1999.
Her choral compositions have already been greeted with great success, as a "Recommended Work" for the C7 Prize (Canada), and semi-finalist for The American Prize 2014. Two of her compositions have been premiered by VAE in both northern California and the UK, and a commissioned work was premiered by the Lincoln High School Chamber Choir in Stockton, CA, in October, 2014. Her work has been called neo-Impressionistic, starry, and emotionally evoking. One recent review of a performance of her work by the Sacramento Master Singers, called the piece "a sophisticated composition worth consideration by any mixed choir in America (or beyond)". Christina and her husband, also a musician (cellist in The Dolanc String Quartet and vocalist in VAE), reside in Erie, PA, and have two daughters, age 10 and 2.
"I cannot fully express how excited and honored I am to have my piece, The New Moon, selected for premiere as the 2014 Mary Bussman Emerging Female Choral Composer Competition winner. My passion for composing choral works is great and this particular work is attached to deep emotions that we all share in life as women. There are those times where we might feel by the end of the day that we have been beaten by certain stresses in life, either big or small. On those difficult days it is so helpful if our eyes might happen to catch a simple glimpse of happiness that can bring into light again the positive aspects of our lives. That one significant moment can sometimes offer a feeling of peace to help restore our strength to face the next day. The New Moon was written just for the Twin Cities Women's Choir and I must admit that I carried all of you in my heart as I composed this piece. I wish for you all to find the same solace and comfort in performing the piece as I did writing it and I am so looking forward to hearing the premiere." —Christina Brice Dolanc
The annual Mary Bussman Emerging Female Composer competition was developed to support the mission of the choir to "sing, perform and affirm the voices of women," and along with other compositions commissioned through special funds, contribute to an ever-growing body of choral work for women's choirs.
TCWC Remembers Kim Stevenson
We are shocked and saddened by the tragic news of the death of Kim Stevenson. Since joining the Twin Cities Women's Choir five years ago, Kim has been a bright spot in our community with her talent and her spirit. Many women have remarked how welcome Kim made them feel when they joined the choir. She generously shared her passionate enthusiasm for music, kids, scooters, the Lynx, and the Twin Cities with all of us. We already miss her terribly. We offer our condolences to her friends and family, and we honor her memory with song.
As a member of our community, Kim was a sister to us, so we share "Sister My Sister" in our remembrance of her. Have a listen.
This ENCORE! performance of "Freeway of Love" features Kim at her best, belting out an awesome solo on a fun classic.

Kathleen Crandell, Ph.D., a nutritionist with Kentucky Equine Research, shared her extensive knowledge of feeding endurance horses with the audience at the 17th KER Nutrition Conference.
Crandell gave a brief overview of endurance riding before launching into the nutritional management of these equine athletes.
Forage is a major source of energy, and provides essential nutrients and bulk for the gastrointestinal tract. Most of the endurance horses in the United States are on pasture 24 hours a day, with free-choice access to forage. Another advantage of full-day turnout is the freedom of horses to move about as they choose, which is best for muscle and joint health.
The best hay for endurance horses is usually the best hay that is available, though for endurance horses grass hay is preferred. This is primarily because legume hays such as alfalfa often have too much protein and calcium, and there is a risk for enterolith (intestinal stone) formation. Other forage choices for horses are chaff (dried chopped forage), hay cubes, and hay pellets. Super fibers, specifically beet pulp and soy hulls, can supply a significant amount of calories to endurance horses.
Starch is more concentrated in energy than fiber, so it is often used to add calories to a ration. Starch is most often supplied by cereal grains. Cereal grains are not balanced for forages, so they often require a ration balancer for optimal nutrition. A ration balancer is a low-intake feed (1 to2 pounds per day) that provides vitamins and minerals not supplied in forages. Fortified concentrates (textured or pelleted feed) best complement forages for horses that require more calories.
Sugars such as molasses and honey are often used to improve palatability of both feeds and water. It is also used in competitions to allow for quick recovery from a drop in glucose.
Fat is often included in the rations of endurance horses. These include vegetable oils, powdered vegetable or animal fat, and rice bran, among others. Fat is a more concentrated energy source than starch, so it adds calories without increasing meal size. Fat cannot be the sole energy source for endurance horses, and rarely do endurance horse rations exceed 5% fat.
Protein is not a major source of energy for endurance horses, though it is an essential nutrient. The protein requirement for the average endurance horse is 8 to 10%, which can easily be supplied through good-quality forage. The highest requirement for protein is following a race when horses are rebuilding damaged body tissues.
Most endurance riders in the United States seek out high-fiber, high-fat, low-starch feeds.
The key to a successful ride is to keep endurance horses eating. Everything that will be fed at the ride should be fed in the weeks leading up to the race. Nothing new should be introduced into the diet on the day of the race as this can lead to gastrointestinal problems.

I'm gonna hafta decline. I'm not really interested in getting rid of Luke or Burk at this time.
I have a 33 pounder from Iowa I'll trade you for Luke or Burke -or a good freshman backup 65 lber in Andrew Howe for Burke or Luke .
Fxx him -a man has to have priorities .Robles had Angel beat last year -it is weird wrestling a one-legged kid -messes with your head a bit .
I know, it's gonna be a tough match. Robles is big. I cant wait. I thought these duals were on Sat so I didnt bother getting the day off. Wonder what my boss will think when I slip out at noon tomorrow to make the ASU dual at 3:30. So excited to watch some wrasslin!
Herkey-1 -Charlie has a big test right out of the gate Robles upper body looks like a 157 lber . Good luck .
I don't have any inside information but I think you would be suprised to see what kind of money the top guys arent getting in scholarships. It is beggining to become known within the Iowa wrestling community that alot of the guys are turning down or getting money elsewhere (camps etc...) so that we can get some of the other guys. Brands does not give out full rides. And when you are getting kids like Grant Gambrall and Nate Moore right from your backyard I doubt you have to throw very much money at them.
Brands wasn't my childhood idol as was Gable and I don't remember him acting w/out decorum as Brands is want to do .
Also his record as a coach in an era when kids were turning down scholarships just to learn from him are gone.
I don't agree with that. How could you not like Brands if you are a big Gable fan? They are the same person. I'm not sure that Brands promised to stay at VT for a long time. Did they really expect him to stay if the Iowa job opened up. I mean com on...Really. I'm not even going to get started on what VT did to those five wrestlers that transfered. That's a rant way too long. I am interested in the other controversies that Brands has been involved in though. Please enlighten me.
Nah West Virginia or whomever were just being assholes with Metcalf cause Brands had promised he'd stay there and coach forever . I guess thinks got nasty between Brands and the University so they took it out on Metcalf .
I was Dan Gable's bigest fan but Brands is a different story .He seems to cause controversy whereever he goes .
Do you think NC St will make a big fuss about it and threaten to make him lose a year of eligibility? Sounds like it could get nasty between him and the coach if he pushes the football angle.
he wasn't stuck but most refs will call it once you get locked up like that . Damn that Caldwell was big.
He was put in a spladle and if you watch it on youtube you will clearly see that he was not pinned. But he shouldnt have been in that situation to begin with.
If you go to D1 college wrestling they tell the individual results of all major wrestlers , and, unless they are lying Caldwell indeed stuck Metcalf . I don't know if Metcalf got caught in a Headlock but he surely did get stuck .

SPRING, TEXAS–August 16, 2012–You never get a second chance to make a first impression. Bayer MaterialScience LLC is offering a new benefit to its accredited spray polyurethane foam (SPF) insulation contractors that will not only help improve contractors' project estimating and bidding, but also help them look more professional with customers from the start. Bayer is working with JobPro™ Technology to provide its web-based estimating and bidding program to qualified contractors.
JobPro™ is an online sales and management tool specifically for the SPF insulation industry. JobPro™ software helps SPF contractors track leads, develop bids, generate customer proposals, and assess job profitability and material usage data. Because it is web-based, contractors can generate and send proposals with a computer or smartphone. Contractors can customize proposals with additional information such as Bayer-branded SPF insulation information sheets and regionally-specific energy efficiency requirements. Customers can approve proposals immediately with an electronic signature, or print and sign the proposal.
Bayer will subsidize the cost of a JobPro™ subscription for its accredited SPF insulation contractors. Bayer believes it is a good resource to further the use of SPF insulation.
"JobPro™ is appealing for Bayer contractors on a number of levels," said Bob Creighton, manager of warranty and contractor accreditation programs for Bayer MaterialScience LLC Spray Insulation and Roofing Materials. "Contractors can now do a better job educating customers about SPF and our contractors will be able to work more efficiently because of the availability to track material usage. This tool is another resource to position SPF as the insulation material of choice."
JobPro™ Technology estimates their program saves contractors 50 percent of the time it would normally take to generate an estimate and send a customer proposal. JobPro™ allows contractors to enter project measurements directly into the system at the job site; the program auto-calculates customer cost and job profitability using the contractor's pricing details. Once the job is complete, the contractor can compare estimated and actual profitability based on the amount of SPF insulation installed.
"JobPro™ has made a direct positive impact on our business. We struggled to have a central communication vehicle where all jobs were visible in all stages - from the initial sales inquiry to scheduling to job cost and collections," Virginia Cameron, president of A.C. & R. Insulation Co. in Elkridge, Maryland said. "Now it's easy to see the entire process online. In addition, it has become the central vehicle we use to determine trends and quickly change course as necessary. I finally feel like we are applying cutting edge technology to make business decisions and service our customers."
Bayer is pleased to offer the discounted JobPro™ tool as part of its continuing commitment to its contracting base. The JobPro™ discount is only available to accredited Bayer contractors. More information about the accreditation program is available at the link provided below.

Windows Vista gets image flaw fixJanuary 17, 2006
Windows flaw spawns dozens of attacksJanuary 3, 2006
Vista, slated to be broadly available in January, is the first major Microsoft product to get security updates while it is still in beta, Microsoft employee Alex Heaton wrote on a corporate blog Tuesday.
"We are committed to release Windows Vista updates for all MSRC (Microsoft Security Response Center) critical class issues that may arise during the beta-testing period," wrote Heaton, who works on Vista security. The goal is to release the fixes as soon as possible, he said--but versions of Windows that have been commercially released, such as Windows XP, get priority.
Two of the seven "critical" Windows updates that Microsoft delivered on Aug. 8 affect Vista, Heaton wrote. These are MS06-042, for Internet Explorer, and MS06-051, which addresses a flaw in the Windows kernel.
Vista is not affected by the Windows flaw that is getting most of the attention among the Patch Tuesday bulletins. That flaw, MS06-040, affects file and printer sharing and has already been exploited in low-risk worm attacks.
Updates for the security issues that affect Vista have been sent out to Windows Update and are available in the Microsoft Download Center, according to the software maker.
These are not the first security fixes for Vista. In January, Microsoft released a security update to address the same image-rendering vulnerability found in earlier versions of the operating system. The patch fixed a flaw in the way the operating system's Graphics Rendering Engine processes Windows Meta File images. The WMF handling bug was being exploited in cyberattacks.

- What th'...?
- And I thought MS was touting Vista for its security. So 2 out of the last 12 patches also apply to Vista, that's better but it's still not secure, especially when you consider it isn't in wide spread circulation and hasn't attracted the full focus of security researchers and bad guys yet.

OUR galaxy may be embedded in a pancake of dark matter, so dense it is easier to detect than conventional dark matter.
Most astronomers believe a spherical cloud of dark matter envelops our galaxy. Though invisible, its gravity perturbs the visible stuff. Now there may also be a pancake of dark matter.
Calculations by Tobias Bruch of the University of Zurich, Switzerland, and colleagues suggest that when the Milky Way devours smaller galaxies, their dark matter should get caught in its disc of stars and gas. This would form a pancake that Earth-based experiments would find easier to spot because it would be highly concentrated (www.arxiv.org/abs/0902.4001).

Of course, if they do that they are riding at more than double the "suggested" speed anyway. Because barring interference from LE that's my pace. 20mph up to the ton, depending on where I'm at.
Depending on potholes, gravel, etc. I am using the entire lane when going round a corner. Not the entire lane the entire time but parts of it depending where I am in relation to the apex. I don't stay in just one half of the lane unless I've waved somebody by. At that point, the throttle is closed and I'm hugging the fog line as close as I can.
I don't do parades or charity runs. Can't even if I wanted to anyway, they are held on weekends during the day when I am asleep.

What are you thankful for?
This is a very good question, that we should
all ask ourselves on a regular basis, not just on
Thanksgiving, don't you think?
Taking the time to stop and ask ourselves this question on a
regular basis will definately help our mental state and ultimately
our buisness.
My wish is that in 2009 you will make this a habit.
Yes, we will have a MLM Minute online this week, for those of
you that have been asking. As always you can find this
weekly MLM Training at http://www.TheMLMMinute.com
Make sure to let the people in your life that you are
thankful for know that today. Pick up the phone, send an
email, or hopefully you will be seeing them in person.
Have an awesome day!
I appreciate you, and try to remind my customers and clients
that as much as possible. I understand without you, I couldn't
do what I love to do, and I sincerely appreciate you!
Regarless of what many people feel, the name of the game is not just
getting people in your program, you must KEEP THEM in, moving
forward and progressing.
You cannot duplicate if you don't retain the distributors who join
your team!
What is your retention "SYSTEM"? When I ask this question at
live mlm training seminars; attendees usually look at me like a
deer staring in headlights. Retention System?
It is like they have never really thought about it. We focus so
much time on "getting them in" , maybe we should focus on
This information will help you!
For our younger readers; Baby boomer is a term used to describe a person who was born during the Post- World War II. The baby boom happened between 1946 and 1964. I know that this article is going to ruffle some feathers, but please understand.
I was born in 1960 so I am talking about my generation. I have been watching this trend towards extinction for 20 years, and at this point it is at critical levels. It is sad to me that over the next 10 minutes I could easily make a list of 200 network marketers from my generation that at one time were making a strong six figure income that today, are totally out of the industry or barely earning enough income to pay their bills.
Those of you that know me, know that I have been preaching that our lack of understanding how to systematically develop our distributor organization would some day catch up with us. Our generation is made up of hard working, personality leaders with guts of steal that built their business by throwing enough mud on the wall and some of it stuck.
We can handle rejection, we believe in personal growth and development and we understand it is a numbers game. The challenge is the numbers have changed! Since the majority of our industry leaders come from my generation never had to perfect their marketing, recruiting and training methods, they didn't. Even though they wanted to support their teams they just never grasped what it really took to support and develop the next wave of leadership on their teams. The answer for them was always, work harder, and get through more numbers. The problem is 97% of their downline were followers, and simply didn not have the drive, determination, personality and work ethic that they had as we explain in detail here WHY THE MASSES OF NETWORK MARKETERS ARE FRUSTRATED, CONFUSED AND DON'T HAVE A CLUE WHAT THEY ARE DOING.
They could not handle the rejection and numbers. For the most part, my generation of network marketers has never really comprehended how to franchise their business and build upon systems that are duplicatable instead of finding a few people a year who posses the same drive, determination and work ethic that they have.
As I have mentioned earlier, the numbers have changed, and most one time leaders from my generation are still trying to make the ratios from the 90's work and they don't. Even worse, others are trying to just hold on to small number of followers they have left. I have written about this numerous times over the past 10 years and won't rehash how cable TV infomercials, internet marketing, ebay, and many other factors have removed a large chunk of potential prospects from the mlm market place.
With the evolution of some very smart, young, web 2.0 and attraction marketers growing their business with the internet if Baby Boomer network marketers are now scared & THEY SHOULD BE! Network marketing as you have known it is over Baby Boomers!
You simply cannot go through the number of prospects you did in the 90's and achieve the same results, especially when you have not developed strong directional leadership training systems for your team to plug into and create predictable success IF they are willing to do their part. Here is what you need to understand ……at one time, this new wave of Internet work marketers, were in your downline and they would still be there if you had provided them with duplictable, unified training systems.
I tried to warn you this was coming back in the mid nineties when I wrote Why the Masses of Network Marketers are Frustrated, Confused, and Dont Have a Clue What They are Doing. However at that time, the majority thought they had made it. They became tired of slinging mud, they were playing golf or participating in other recreational activities daily and traveling around the country conducting training meetings in hotels on Saturdays and playing Elvis. Over time, the masses started to understand, that just because you have a title doesn't necessarily mean you are leader.
Now here comes the Internet and all heck broke lose. Droves of burnt out network marketers who had not received the upline training and support they needed turned to online marketing. As a result, according to the direct sales industry, mlm sales within the US declined for the first time in 1997 and 1998. Panic set in, as Baby Boomers incomes started to see there incomes decline.
The realization that the numbers had changed started to become more and more evident as they attempted to return to the market to try to rebuild their incomes. This leads to an attitude of fear throughout the industry as leaders started to jump from company to company based upon the deal they could cut and not what was best for their team.
With each move their number of followers decreased. Unable to make the numbers work in the new market environment, many Baby Boomer leaders have become immobilized over the past several years. In the mean time, a small group of young marketers started focusing on using the internet to develop their business and the entire attraction marketing/funded proposal systems was born. This entire trend has been propelled by the entire Web 2.0, Social Marketing explosion.
Unfortunately this trend has developed an entire group of new network marketers who ultimately will experience a downfall worse than the baby boomers.
Because their message is wrong and contradicts The Wisdom of the Ages. They are sincere in their belief, but what they believe and what they are teaching …… THE INTERNET IS THE ONLY WAY–will ultimately fail for the masses. I could really go off on this, but another time. For now, just consider this: 47% of the American population does not use email. The average American checks their email every 8 days, and I could go on and on.
Ok, I will end it here, but look for an article in our next newsletter titled: Why Attraction Marketing does not work for most marketers Back to Baby boomers, how can you prevent yourself from joining the large number of extinct network marketers that have gone before you? I could talk about this for hours. I think it starts with you realizing that your training systems must change.
My experience tells me if you think you get this but you dont do anything different! If you want to be totally blown away check out my training Confessions of a Network Marketing Millionaire this month we are also including our book WHY THE MASSES OF NETWORK MARKETERS ARE FRUSTRATED, CONFUSED AND DON'T HAVE A CLUE WHAT THEY ARE DOING, free for everyone who invest in this program.
1)Â Decide if you want to build again, if you dont that is your decision but you are going to have to change the way you have always done things.
2)Â Put your ego aside, and decide to become a learner. I realize how difficult this is for you but lets face it, the way you initially built your team, with personality & work ethic is not duplicatable only systems are.
3)Â These are the minimum systems that need to be developed based upon your company and opportunity and they need to be designed for the average person not the top producers.
*Â Game plan to start new distributors right (www.StartRightMLM.com)
*System to Market Your Product or Service
*Two Step System to Recruit New Distributors
*Local Market Recruiting (www.LocalMLMLeads.com)
*Creating Leads on the Internet (www.NonGeekInternetMareting.com) (www.CreateOnlineMLMLeads.com) This is bare bones minimum, but this will get you started in the right direction.
What you should really do, and I have learned this the hard way, is hire me to consult and guide your through the process. My consulting rate is $500 and hour & this will take about 6 sessions, but quite frankly I have a waiting list, and no time slots available right now.
Here is the good news, the industry despartely needs your experience & wisdom. The industry has a ton of new leaders that have never heard about the Amway court case, that saved us all. They dont know who Mark Hughes was, or Glen Turner is, and of course I could go on and on.
I respect you for paving the way, for proving the potential of the industry for the next generation. I just despartely want to see the people that built this industry to ultimately reap the rewards throughout their lifetime. We are getting ready to head into 2009, is it a time to make a change?
Think about it!
I made the mistake tonight of clicking on a ton of google adword ADS for the key words MLM TRAINING. (BY THE WAY WE ARE CURRENTLY #1 IN GOOLGES ORGANIC (Non Paid) SEARCH FOR MLM TRAINING) Too many people claim to have "the answer" to creating MLM Success. BLAH, BLAH, BLAH, I have the Secret! Just because someone calls themself a MLM Consultant doesn't mean they are.
Today we are at epidemic proportions of those TRYING TO TEACH YOU HOW TO DO, THAT WHICH THEY NEVER HAVE. Multiple network marketers are buying into the "Attraction Marketing" theory & MLM Gurus are a dime a dozen!
It seems that every active marketer has a video on their squeeze page proclaiming they have the ALL THE ANSWERS. People who have made $10,000 a month are a dime a dozen in MLM! Even if they have done it, doesnt mean you can do the same thing!
Ladies and Gentleman it is all about increasing the odds of your success over the long term!!
The last time I subjected myself to all of this blah blah blah I ended up doing 2 Videos myself that you should check out, I think they will give you a perspective on all the Self-Proclaimed Gurus Yelling at you!

What do you think about this Nietzsche quote? :O
I do like a bit of Nietzsche from time to time, and I was wondering about your opinions on this quote: "A casual stroll through the lunatic asylum... Show More
Most Helpful Opinion
Based on just the quote alone, not knowing the context, I would say:
Some mental illnesses involve delusions and hallucinations (for example, schizophrenia). These people believe strongly (have faith) that their delusions/hallucinations are true/real.
Objectively, we know that these people have a mental illness and that their beliefs about reality are not true.
Since faith is often talked about in a religious sense, I'll point out that many people have delusions/hallucinations that are religious in nature. Some people, for example, believe that they are god or a messenger from god; others believe that god, angels, demons, or the like are speaking to them (and may be telling them to do things).
Whether you're talking about faith in a religious context, or simply faith that your beliefs about something are true, the mentally ill provide a clear example of the fact that faith that something is true is not enough to prove that it is true.
Our minds are capable of convincing us that something is true, even if that thing isn't true. This doesn't mean that every person who has "faith" that something is true is mentally ill, only that we should strive to base our beliefs on more than just faith alone.
What Girls Said 10
Its a toughie my guess. That regardless of what you may believe to be true, that belief alone is just that,a belief. It is only relevant to the person and does not make it true or solid. That faith with only one member is called a madman, a faith with only a few members is a cult, and faith with a significant number of followers is a religion.
That faith without action will only land you in an asylum. Those people had dreams too, and believed God would save them, and it got them no where but an asylum with the rest of the crazies. You can have all the faith in the world in God, but it won't prove anything tangible to represent it to others. Appropriated action proves things, not believing it and hoping it will magically materialize.
Lol! I read that quote as if he was being facetious. Therefore, my interpretation may be off. I would think he means that because the patients of a lunatic asylum have "faith" in what they believe even though the mentally stable know that it's not true. Proving that faith is perception and can not prove facts.
I was just taking a stab at it. hope it helps.
Those "crazy" people are faithful about whatever they believe in... for example there was a lady that would stand on a busy road by my house, all day, day after day with signs that didn't make any sense "Britney Spears works for satan", "the world is ending", yadda yadda, abortion, george Bush, all crammed on one sign... Was her message really getting across or was her only message: "I'm crazy!"
I personally love "crazy" people they give my city flare... and scare away uptight soccer mom's and their whiny kids... lol.
I think everyone's existence has purpose/meaning.
Ms. Benavides! I found you! ----> link
What Guys Said 7
I enjoy Nietzsche quotes too. I think it means that while they may see things that aren't there or hear voices or have other forms of personality disorders they believe in these things very strongly. We all know that this type of faith doesn't mean that these things are real outside the scope of their own mind. I think that's what the quote entails.
Have an opinion?

Winter!: Prepare for holiday gaming!
YouTube Channel
Hello GamerDNA people!
For a little while now I've been uploading a few gaming vids to YouTube. Just for fun really and eventually I might do some Let's Plays. I'd really love to get some feedback and some suggestions on what to play next. One thing I wouldn't mind trying is getting a suggestion not only for a game but some kind of challenge to do in it like a high score or a time limit to finish it in. I could record it and do commentary. I'd really just like some motivation for doing it as my very low viewing figures are kind of just making think there's no point. It would just be even better if there were people watching!
Anyway, you can find it at http://www.youtube.com/user/NightraidX

You would think that this would be a simple process. Unfortunately, uninstalling SQL Server is not as cut and dry as you would think. There have been situations in the past in which I had to uninstall and then reinstall SQL Server. I quickly found that opening up the control panel and selecting to uninstall the instance of SQL Server was not enough. Doing it that way also caused problems when trying to reinstall. So here is a short, step by step guide that works beautifully.
First, open up the control panel and go to 'Uninstall a Program'. Select the Microsoft SQL Server Browser and click uninstall.
Next, select Microsoft SQL Server 2008 (R2 in my case) and click uninstall. This will remove the SQL Server instance and all the extra components.
There is still one more thing to complete the uninstall. Even though the instance is gone, all the database files are still in the program files directory. This will cause issues when you try to reinstall. Go into the program files, find the Microsoft SQL Server folder and delete it.
At this point, you have removed all traces of SQL Server. You can easily reinstall it with no issues.

This is a lovely pair of cufflinks featuring Centurion carved cameos mounted in 900 silver. 900 silver is slightly below sterling standard, which is 925 parts silver per 1000, and used mostly in Europe, primarily in France. The cameos are carved in the image of a Roman centurion - the facial features are slightly feminine, so might be meant to be Amazons.
Each cameo measures 3/4" by 5/8".

LIKE it or not, 1998 was the year in which the genome project turned into a race. In May, veteran DNA sequencer Craig Venter helped to found Celera Genomics of Rockville, Maryland, with a pledge to finish sequencing the human genome by 2001. And in August, Incyte Pharmaceuticals of Palo Alto, California, upped the stakes when it promised to complete a first run through the genomealbeit a patchy oneby 2000.
The Human Genome Project (HGP), a loose international alliance of government and charity-funded labs, countered by bringing its timetable forward by two years. According to some insiders, this was largely at the instigation of Britain's Wellcome Trust, the world's largest medical charity, which convinced officials in the US that the project couldn't simply be left to the private sector. The HGP now aims to identify all 30 billion bases in the human genome by 2003.
But this race could be ...

Dobson vs. Cheney
Mr. Focus on the Family critiques Mary Cheney's pregnancy in the pages of Time.
Lord, deliver us from dunderheads like James Dobson! This week, Mr. Focus on the Family offered up an editorial on the topic of Mary Cheney's pregnancy and the problems of being raised in a lesbian home. The piece was teeming with moronic generalizations and scientific errors -- but what can one expect from a Bible thumper so bigoted he once compared same-sex marriage to slavery and suggested that same-sex marriage was worse?

the above there are many similarities between Christian values and philosophy with principles that were reflected in the policies of Abraham and his political thought. Even in some of the quotations made a genuine rephrasing of Christian texts, which at least leads us to deduce that it was an assiduous student of the Scriptures. An example is the famous phrase "Better to remain silent and suspicious of your little wisdom to speak and remove any doubt about that." which is almost a direct quote from Proverbs 17:28.
Abraham was raised by a family of Baptist both Tom and Nancy Lincoln, his parents belonged to the Little Mount Baptist Church, near Elizabethtown in the state of Kentucky.
When Abraham Lincoln was seven years old his family moved to Indiana. At age sixteen, Abraham was hired by James Gentry to conduct a gender raft to New Orleans. And he and Gentry's son traded downstream along the coast of sugar. It was on that trip where they were forced to repel the attack by a gang of blacks. They finally reached New Orleans, soon after returning home, his father decided to move again. The farm in Indiana and produced little milk fever threatened their livestock. John Hanks lived in Illinois, where he sent news of those lands. And Thomas decided to go away. After a long trip, the group reached the banks of the Sangamon River in the area near Springfield, Illinois, in 1829. They built their next home...Denton Offutt, a man who took a fancy to Abraham, who hired him on his return from New Orleans to take charge of a store with a mill in New Salem.
And there was Abraham, in July 1831. Lincoln already had twenty years of age, and owned him.
"But I know many things.
He could read, write and count, and even the rule of three, but nothing more. I never studied at a college or academy. What I have in education I have been gathering here and there, under the demands of necessity. "
Political career
He served as captain in the U.S. Army
during the Black Hawk War. Lincoln was a member of the Whig Party of the United States at the beginning of his political career; he served four terms in the Illinois State Legislature. He was elected representative (MP) to the House of Representatives of the United States for the 7th Congressional District of Illinois for the period from March 4, 1847 to March 3, 1849 (the period of a representative in the United States is two years and because of his opposition to American intervention in Mexico Lincoln had to resign to run for reelection). He had a successful practice as a lawyer in Illinois both before and after his term in the House of Representatives. Lincoln had turbulent mood swings alternating between grandiosity and depression, which greatly eased after his marriage to Mary Todd Lincoln in 1842. From this union were born four children, all boys. One died in infancy, long before his father reached the White House. The other son died at the tender age when Lincoln was still pr ...

'Game of Thrones' Jack Gleeson has the best Purple Wedding reaction of allAdd to Favorites | Game of Thrones
Warning: The photo below contains a huge "Game of Thrones" Season 4, episode 2. If you haven't watched it and don't want to be spoiled, turn back now and come back after you've seen "The Lion and the Rose."
Now that the deed has been done and King Joffrey is gone, reactions to his death have spread across the internet far and wide. There is definitely one person nobody thought to check in with, though: Jack Gleeson.
After playing Joffrey since the beginning of the series, what would Gleeson think about seeing himself die as the character? It turns out, he's taking the loss rather well.
That Instagram photo comes from actor Manus Halligan, who is a friend of Gleeson's if their pictures together are any proof. Gleeson looks rather cheerful standing next to his own corpse, but why wouldn't he be? Joffrey was a menace. Still, there's bound to be a part of him that will miss playing the evil king, just like in one way or another fans will miss seeing him on TV.
"Game of Thrones" airs Sundays on HBO at 9 p.m. ET/PT.

This, Not That!: Everyday Choices
Avoid This!
A candy bar at lunch
"If you just want to tide yourself over for an hour, fine," says Dave Grotto, R.D., director of nutrition education at Block Medical Center, in Evanston, Illinois. "But a candy bar can't substitute for real food." It will cause your blood sugar to spike, Grotto says, which will spark the overproduction of insulin, which will cause your blood sugar to plummet, which will leave you hungry and cranky—right where you started. Instead, grab an energy bar. We like LäraBar, with fruit and nuts providing the right mix of carbs, fats, and protein to keep blood glucose stable until your next meal.
Not That!
A break from working out
Go ahead, take a few days off. In fact, take the whole week. If you've been working out seriously—three or four times a week for 6 to 8 weeks—a break might be just what your deltoids ordered. "Then go back with a totally different workout," says Eddie Carrington, fitness director at Bally's Total Fitness. "It will shock your muscles, building them faster." Don't avoid exercise altogether, though: Some light cardio—biking, running—will keep your muscles engaged.
Avoid This!
Telling off the boss
Would you defecate on your résumé before submitting it to HR? Fact is, your clever analogies and cunning wit aside, your boss is your ticket to the future. He also has more corporate capital than you do. So even if you land a few verbal jabs, he'll win by technical knockout every time. Then there's this: "A lot of industries are small," says Tom Markert, author of You Can't Win a Fight with Your Boss. "Apply for a job at a competitor and your old boss might be the first person they call."
Not That!
Gossiping about the boss
Indulge. But be careful. "Unload to one person at a time, and only to someone willing to unload back," says Gil Schwartz, Men's Health's in-house career consultant. "Then you'll have as much on him as he does on you." Avoid complaining to people above your level, even if you think they agree with you—it's a sign of disloyalty. And if you're caught—well, don't get caught. "Bosses need to trust their people," says Schwartz. "Once that trust is broken, you're screwed."
Marking an e-mail "high priority."
Just because Bill Gates dreamed up a button doesn't mean you should press it. Pick up the phone or walk over to his desk.
Finding exact change.
Picking through your pocket lint for 11 cents isn't helping the barista churn through the morning rush any faster. Stockpile your coinage at home. Trade it for cash once a year, then treat your girl to a dinner you otherwise couldn't afford.
Sending an angry e-mail.
Along with drunk-dialing your ex and drinking appletinis, this one fits in the category of things you will always, without fail, regret. Remember this rule of thumb: The more bridges you'll burn, the longer you should let that e-mail smolder in your drafts folder.

The Kardashians
New Documents Hint at Khloe Kardashian's True Paternity
The battle of Khloe Kardashian's paternity continues! In what is beginning to sound like a bad episode of Maury, Robert Kardashian Sr.'s ex-wives, Jan Ashley and Ellen Kardashian, are relentlessly insisting that O.J. Simpson's former defense lawyer claimed Khloe wasn't his child.
Jan Ashley, the woman who wed the late attorney after Kris Jenner, revealed in this week's Star that Robert confessed multiple times he wasn't Khloe's father.
"Khloe is not his kid — he told me that after we got married," Ashley told Star. "He just kind of looked at me and said [it] like it was a matter of fact. He said, 'Well, you know that Khloe's not really a Kardashian, don't you?'
Both women also said Khloe would often talk about how she wasn't a Kardashian.
Obviously, the reality TV family denies the allegations. As soon as the story broke, Kim and Khloe both tweeted about the rumor's falseness. And on Thursday, Momager Kris Jenner hit the Good Morning America show to dismiss the gossip on-air. "It just gets weirder and weirder: I have never heard such crap in my life. I mean, I was there!" Kris told GMA.
While the whole mess is mostly a game of he-said, she-said, there is one piece of tangible evidence, and it's in favor of the famous fam. According to documents obtained by TMZ, when Robert Kardashian Sr. was seeking to annul his marriage from Jan Ashley in 1996, he handed the judge a declaration which stating the marriage didn't work because Jan wanted to mother his child, and he didn't want any more kids.
In the declaration, Robert says, "I decided that since I already had four biological children, I did not wish to have any more." Let's do the math: Kourtney, Kim, Khloe and Robert make four!

One Musa Camara Mboob, a drug convict serving a ten-year jail term, yesterday told the Gambia Court of Appeal, presided over by Justice M.M Agyemang, Justice Emmanuel Fagbenle and Justice M.F. Singhateh that he was withdrawing his notice filed before the said court.
Musa Camara Mboob was convicted and sentenced to serve a 10-year imprisonment term for the offence of being in possession of prohibited drugs contrary to the Laws of The Gambia by the Anti-Narcotic Court in Banjul.
When the matter came up, the appellant was asked who his legal counsel was, and he mentioned Lawyer Antouman A. B. Gaye as his lawyer.
Justice M.M. Agyemang then said that on the last adjourned date, the appellant was asked to file briefs, but she has noticed that both the state and the appellant have not yet done so.
At this juncture, the appellant, Musa Camara Mboob informed the court that he intended to withdraw his appeal, noting that he had already served nine years out of the ten years he was imprisoned.
When asked if he had informed Lawyer Antouman Gaye, the appellant replied in the negative.
Meanwhile, Justice M.M. Agyemang struck out the said appeal.
