The Ten Issues All Art Studio Businesses Must Address In Their Art Studio Business Plan.
Why do only 11% of Art Studio Businesses ever get financed? The plain truth is that there are far too many new business owners pursuing too little capital. However many financiers will tell you the real reason is that there are too few "quality" applications.
Assuredly, you and any potential investor will consider the qualities of your Art Studio Business in totally different ways. The inexperienced business owner routinely makes the error of not realizing that investors will principally judge the value of their Art Studio Business as against the other deals their institution is reviewing, in preference to other businesses in your sector.
You should be aware of the fact that obtaining finance is not simply an exercise in marketing yourself, and your company, to gain a scarce amount of available money. Rather, it is really a contest against other new companies to get the interest of lenders. Accomplished entrepreneurs appreciate this basic point, and strategically promote their business based upon this knowledge.
Assuming you have identified that there is a wide and flourishing market opportunity for your businesses goods and services, what are the other subjects that you should recognize when submitting a plan or new company to a possible financial backer?
Here are ten things that you must grasp, if you hope to get the money that you need into your Art Studio Business:
The main objective of creating your business plan is to produce a prosperous business. It is a waste of time to complete a business plan that can raise the funds that you are hoping for, if your business is so poorly conceived that it is undoubtedly going to fall apart.
Therefore, all of our Art Studio Business Plans have content covering your organizations longer term needs, and strategies that focus on both getting you funded, and making a profit in your Art Studio Business. Our plans look at the overall performance of your organization, and the way it will work for you and your future.
Even if you have all the money that you need, you need to draw up a business plan. A plan shows how you will manage your business. In the absence of a plan, you cannot possibly know where your company is going, and you cannot possibly measure its progress.
Quite often, after analyzing one of our plans, business owners vary their ideas, elect not to open, or even shut an existing Art Studio Business. Consequently, for the price of one of our business plan packages, they save themselves an immense amount of money and trauma.
Our Art Studio Business Plans are not the same as the unfinished, free, ten year old, business plans that you find on the Internet. Our plans focus on:
The Business Concept.
Ordinarily small business owners get inspired from one of four sources.
Our Art Studio Business Plans outline how companies in the market presently discover (and also tips for how you will discover) new clients. This will rapidly help you appraise the strengths and weaknesses of your main ideas.
The current Art Studio market.
Only a small number of business owners have the funds to conduct thorough market research. Market reports can be hundreds of pages long, and cost huge amounts of money; they are also pretty much useless for smaller organizations. Our Art Studio Business Plans contain relevant wording about:
This information will enable you to evaluate how and where your merchandise should be located in the market.
Creating a focus for your Art Studio Business.
It is critical to your organization, if you want it to be a success, that it possesses a clearly defined strategic position that makes it different it from its competitors. Describing this position will ensure you capture a distinct place in the market, and separate what your organization does differently from the competition.
We provide mission statements in our Art Studio Business Plans and give you various strategic options for your Art Studio Business.
Setting out different ways to publicize and create income from your businesses products and services.
Our Art Studio Business Plans provide you with clear-cut info about the sort of merchandise that is in your market-place. How you market your products and services will characterize your organization and where you are placed relative to your competitors.
An endless number of business owners want to offer bargain-priced merchandise with unparalleled customer service; that is a fast track to failure, as earnings will not deliver profits. Our business plan packages lay out different ideas for explaining your business more effectively.
We also supply three further business plans to give a vast selection of options for increasing what you offer, and subsequently growing your Art Studio Business.
Managing Your Art Studio Business.
Bankers base their lending decision almost completely upon how they assess the businesses owner and the managers of the organization. Most new business owners feel that banks make the decision based upon the financials they are given, but the truth is introducing the management team correctly is the best way of obtaining the loan that you are hoping to obtain. So what are banks searching for?
Do you have people that are capable and accomplished in the diverse features of the organization? Or do the skills and qualities of your staff duplicate each other?
Art Studio Business Plan Financial Summary
If you have no idea how to do your spreadsheets then there are dozens of documents and spreadsheets in our Business Plan Package that precisely outline the straightforward way to finalize your financials, using your ideas and, most importantly, numbers that match your plans actual wording.
You need to make certain that you do not utilize make-believe numbers that you find on the net - they cannot possibly work for your organization and using fictitious numbers to try and obtain financing is fraud; you will be committing a serious offense.
Use our wording to finalize your business plan to begin with, and then your numbers will be straightforward!
An Art Studio Business Plan must function as the business owners guidebook and connect the separate parts of their venture, says John Pearce, business consultant of the year, The plan should be utilized to examine the organizations products, promotional campaigns and its revenues. It will also be used to analyze how the organizations personnel are operating and will form the foundation for the ventures operational systems. Utilized correctly it becomes a reference book for your Art Studio Business. It will work as a staff handbook, a daily reference source and the document that you will judge everything in your business against.
Art Studio Business owners that create a business plan can talk to their financial institution at any time and state, here is our Art Studio Business Plan, we need this funding and this is how the business will be using it. A perceptive Art Studio Business owner can easily recruit staff to run their business as everything wanted of them is set out in one report.
Pearce, who has assisted in the creation of over four thousand, five hundred, business plans in the last thirty years, is absolutely clear that the most profitable ventures were planned that way.
With all of the analysis now available on the Internet and the clear necessity for every Art Studio Business to establish an appealing and income generating online presence, it would be totally implausible that any organization would not bother to create a business plan. Twenty-four out of every twenty-five companies will go under, and 96% of all ventures still do not write a business plan, but at least that makes the businesses that are going to fail that much simpler to identify!

The Aims Of Your Art Studio Business Plan
In the present cut-throat environment there can be little doubt that developing a useful Art Studio Business Plan is, surely, an extremely important task for any business owner. It is now very unlikely that you can finance any small business, or make certain that its goods are directed at the right customers, if the company has not created a business plan.
These points are certainly applicable for new company owners who are looking to start an Art Studio Business. By creating a business plan you are compelled to address the striking adjustments in the sector, and ensure that you will investigate all the areas of your company; not only the sections where you have greater understanding.
There is no use in trying to create a business plan that is interesting and suited to everyone that looks at it, but if you challenge yourself to establish the best business plan that you are able to, this can unquestionably help you in starting a new venture that will compensate you for the work that you do.
What are your companies main objectives and have they been spotlighted in your plan? Start by confirming your companies fundamental goals and it will be significantly easier to finish your plan.
The advantages of establishing a business plan are that:
1. A plan demands you scrutinize everything about your organization, not just the areas of the business you are satisfied will perform correctly.
2. Planning will help your organization handle a wide range of problems and improve its customer service, as your marketing campaigns and any advertising will be closely match the products that you will actually be offering.
3. Business planning makes certain that all of your employees can deal with any customer questions in precisely the same way.
4. A business plan makes certain that your organization can respond more energetically to movements and product innovations in the market-place, and ensure your company becomes a leader instead of becoming a follower.
5. Possessing a plan will mean if you ever need any additional funding, your business will always be ready.
Planning works - companies that plan produce a positive return on investment three times as often as ventures that do not bother.

I bought these whit boas for my bridesmaids for my wedding reception on April 7th. These were just what I was looking for. Yes, they shed quite a bit, but my 9 year old sister-in-law and I had fun "boa fighting" (like sword fighting) in the back yard to get all the access feathers off. After we did that, they still looked full and were lovely around the necks of my bridesmaids as we entered into t

Liberals are the true conservatives
May 22, 2011 - 10:59 am
The Oxford English Dictionary defines 'Äúconservative'Äù as: "Characterized by a tendency to preserve or keep intact and unchanged'Ķreluctance to make changes.'Äù
Modern liberal/progressives promote a return to feudalism, which has been the prevailing socio-economic system throughout history. Whether you call it socialism, fascism, mixed-market economy, etcetera, the outcome is the same: the few rule the many.
Whether you call it¬Ýserf, peon, proletariat, or subject, you are a slave. Your future is predetermined. You possess the semblance of 'Äúfreedom'Äù as long as you remain within the boundaries determined by your 'Äúbetters'Äù.
Obama is a manifestation of a desire to elect an omnipotent demigod-icon-savior. He appointed a gun control czar and seeks to circumvent Constitutional checks and balances by imposing gun control via executive action. Feudalists keep their slaves disarmed.
Today's liberal/progressives promote big government and less individual liberty, for the good of the collective. That's feudalism.
Compared to the oppressive consistency of historical feudalism, the Founders were liberal thinkers who saw the dangers and benefits of earlier thinkers and societies and decided to try something new.
Sensible values like personal liberty, limited government, and free market economics were part of their vision of America. This is the true progressive ideology; just when somebody thinks they've built the best mousetrap possible, somebody comes along and builds a better one…as long as they're free to exercise their God-given gift of creativity.
That's change you can believe in.

Bowser: D.C. Needs "Real Change"
Ward 4 Councilmember Muriel Bowser launched her mayoral campaign this morning outside her childhood home in North Michigan Park, telling a group of 100 or so supporters, reporters, and lookers-on who crowded onto 7th Street NE that the District needs new leadership so it can be "the most responsive and the most innovated government in the entire world."
In a relatively short speech, Bowser, whose candidacy has been a somewhat forgone conclusion for several months, talked about the need for better schools, better senior care, and a better city in general, but spent much of her time indirectly criticizing the current mayor and her potential rival, if he runs for a second term, Vince Gray. The Democratic primary, which in D.C. effectively decides the winner of most elections, would most likely be a little more than a year from now, on April 1, 2014.
"As I've gotten around the city you've told me that you're disappointed, that the work of the District of Columbia has been sidetracked. Corruption has robbed us of our focus, our momentum, our need to think big and act swiftly," Bowser said. "We settled into managing the status quo, riding the success of our past instead of shaping the landscape of our future. And it's showing up too, slower service deliver, missed deadlines, taskforce upon taskforce, and hits to our regional reputation."
Bowser borrowed heavily from the campaign themes of ex-Mayor Adrian Fenty, who launched Bowser's political career and lost to Gray in 2010. Bowser said the District was hungry for a mayor who governs with "energy," "urgency," and produces "real change," which were some of Fenty's favorite buzzwords.
But the nub of Bowser's speech: she said the city wants "a mayor to make us proud again."
No councilmembers came to Bowser's kickoff, and the event wasn't teeming with local politicos. Fenty wasn't there, but several of his supporters did come by, including former Councilmember Bill Lightfoot, Fenty campaign treasurer Ben Soto, former development director (and fire truck donor) David Jannerone, and campaign advisor Tom Lindenfeld.

TV Ratings: 'Parenthood,' 'Voice' let NBC split Tuesday with 'NCIS'-driven CBS
'Hart of Dixie' is up for The CW
Follow HitFix: Follow @hitfix
"Parenthood" topped "Vegas" among young viewers to help NBC score a narrow Tuesday win in the advertiser-friendly demographic, but nothing could stop CBS from sweeping primetime overall with its "NCIS" double-bill.
In the 9 p.m. comedy log-jam, dwindling ratings for FOX's "New Girl" have made NBC the big winner, while "Don't Trust the B---- in Apartment 23" continues to embody ABC's struggles. [The difficulties for "Ben and Kate" are a different story.]
And, finally, it was the most watched episode of "Hart of Dixie" since last December, which also boosted "Emily Owens, MD" and its chances for a back-nine order.
On to the numbers...
8 p.m. - "NCIS" started primetime in first overall with 16.89 million viewers and a second place 3.0 rating among adults 18-49, both well below the drama's season averages for CBS. ABC's "Dancing with the Stars" was second with 11.945 million viewers and a distant third with a 1.9 key demo rating. NBC's "The Voice" was first in the key demo with a 3.8 rating and third with 10.98 million viewers. FOX had a low night for "Raising Hope" (3.82 million and a 1.6 key demo) and particularly for "Ben and Kate" (2.48 million viewers and a 1.1 key demo). The CW's "Hart of Dixie" had a strong (by "Hart of Dixie" standards) 1.68 million viewers and 0.7 key demo rating.
9 p.m. - "NCIS: Los Angeles" won the 9 p.m. hour both in total viewers, with 15.68 million, and among adults 18-49 with a 2.8 rating. NBC was far, far, far back in second with "Go On" (6.32 million viewers and a 2.3 key demo rating) and "The New Normal" (4.75 million viewers and a 1.8 key demo). ABC was third overall and fourth in the demo with "Happy Endings" (4.75 million viewers and a 1.4 key demo) and "Don't Trust the B----" (3.18 million and a 1.1 key demo). FOX was fourth overall and third in the demo with "New Girl" (4.34 million and a 2.2 key demo) and "The Mindy Project" (3.23 million and a 1.7 key demo rating). [Yes, "Happy Endings" beat "New Girl" in total viewers, which is what comes form having a lead-in draw under 2.5 million.] The CW's "Emily Owens, MD" averaged 1.43 million viewers and a 0.4 key demo rating.
10 p.m. - "Vegas" completed CBS' primetime sweep overall with 10.41 million viewers, but slipped to a 1.6 rating among adults 18-49. NBC's "Parenthood" was far back in second overall with 4.74 million viewers, but won the hour with a 1.8 key demo rating. ABC's 'Private Practice" averaged only 3.66 million viewers and a 1.1 key demo rating.
All ratings information comes from preliminary Fast National Nielsen data, which includes live and same-day DVR viewing. All numbers are subject to change.

Getting a Situation Under ControlI'll admit when I'm wrong... this usually unarms a person who is belligerent and wants to argue, comforts a person who feels they were wronged and builds respect toward me from that person.

This is a continuation of application Ser. No. 07/944,129 filed Sep. 11, 1992, now abandoned.
This invention relates to inspection devices, such as a borescope or endoscope, of the type in which a miniature video camera is mounted at a distal viewing head of an elongated insertion tube. The invention is more particularly concerned with an improved plug-in connector module for coupling the probe to a light and power source, and which contains all the circuitry necessary to process the output of the miniature video camera and deliver a video signal suitable to be applied directly to a video monitor.
It is desirable for the probe system to be compact and to operate at low power consumption rates, for example, so that the unit can be compact and of light weight, and also so that the unit can be made battery powered and portable.
A video laparoscope with a light source based on small, low-power metal halide discharge lamp is described in copending patent application Ser. No. 07/780,762, filed Oct. 22, 1991, and having a common assignee. As described in that patent application, a laparoscope or other similar probe has a miniature video camera that incorporates a miniature electronic imager and a lens assembly which are disposed either at the distal tip or at a proximal end of a flexible or rigid insertion tube. For insertion tubes of about 5 mm larger, the camera can be distally mounted. For very slim insertion tubes, the camera can be proximally mounted, with a relay lens system being contained in the insertion tube. The insertion tube can be rigid or can have its tip portion articulatable. The small video camera can be incorporated in an add-on camera attachment for laparoscopes having a proximal viewing port.
Disposing the camera at the distal tip of the laparoscope insertion tube reduces the amount of focussing and relay lenses to be carried in the tube. This means less light is lost in the lens system, so the amount of optical fiber bundle needed for illumination, is reduced which also permits the insertion tube to be made smaller.
The insertion tube proximal end is coupled through a flexible cable or umbilical to a connector module that plugs into a socket in a processor unit. A video cable that extends through the insertion tube and umbilical has terminals in the connector module that supply the video signal from the miniature camera to electronic circuitry in the processor, which supplies a suitable signal to a full color or monochrome monitor. An image of a target area, such as a tissue within a patient's body cavity, can be viewed on the monitor.
Also within the processor is a high illuminance, but low-wattage light source in the form of one or more metal halide discharge lamps. These can preferably be of the type described in copending patent application Ser. Nos. 07/484,166, filed Feb. 23, 1990; 07/636,743, and 07/636,744, each filed Dec. 31, 1990, and which have an assignee in common herewith. The lamp typically operates at a power of about 20 watts dc, and has an efficacy of at least 35 lumens per watt. The light produced, which can be controlled by the selection of salts employed, the dosage of mercury, and mechanical structure of the lamps, has an emission spectrum in the visible band, with very little radiation produced in the infrared band. Also, the arc gap of this lamp is small, which produces a small spot of light when focused onto the fiber optic bundle used for illumination. The small spot size allows almost all the light energy to be directed into the proximal end of a very small fiber bundle. The smaller illumination bundle permits the insertion tube to be made much smaller than was previously possible while still delivering plenty of light to the target area. Also, because small optical fiber bundles can be used, the probe can incorporate redundant optical fiber bundles, which can each be associated with a respective light source. Moreover, because the lamp operates at low power (e.g. 20 watts), producing limited infrared radiation, and with virtually all the light being focused onto the fiber optic bundle, the light source can be made much more compact, and the lamp power supply can be much smaller. The light incident on the target consists substantially only of visible light, with very little radiant heat. This permits the operator to view and examine living tissues or other delicate target materials for extended intervals without danger of tissue damage or the ignition of surgical drapes.
It is an object of this invention to provide an improved inspection probe that avoids the problems of the prior art.
It is another object to provide a video probe which has a self-contained plug-in video module containing the electronics for operating and delivering a video signal based on an image signal from the miniature video imager in the insertion tube.
In accordance with an aspect of this invention, a laparoscope, endoscope, borescope, or other similar probe has a miniature video camera associated with the insertion tube. The camera incorporates a miniature electronic imager and a lens assembly. A fiber optic bundle carries light for illuminating the target and emits light from the distal end of the probe.
A plug-in module contains the required video processing electronics within a sealed housing. The electronics receives power from a connector mounted on the housing, sends to the camera suitable control and synchronizing signals, and receives and processes image signals that represent the image of the target. From the electronics contained in the module, a video signal is provided to output terminals on the connector. The video signal can be directly fed to a suitable video monitor to provide a picture display of the target as viewed by the miniature camera. The illumination fiber optic bundle can be one bundle, or can be bifurcated so that it can receive light from two separate light sources. The bundle extends proximally from the proximal face of the module, and is supported in a projecting metal sleeve which serves to locate the end of the fiber bundle at the focus of the associated light source.
The module is profiled, in cross section, so that it fits insertably into a suitably profiled socket on a power and light unit. There is a power supply that provides power for the video circuitry to a mating connector within the socket, so that power is supplied to the connector on the module and also brings off the video signal when the module is positioned in the socket.
The above and many other objects, features, and advantages of this invention will become apparent to those skilled in the art from the ensuing description of an exemplary embodiment of this invention, to be read in conjunction with the accompanying Drawing.
FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a probe assembly according to one of many possible embodiments of this invention.
FIG. 2 is a perspective view of a video processor module according to this embodiment of the invention.
FIGS. 3 and 4 are top plan view of the video processor module showing progressive stages of assembly.
FIG. 5 is a schematic sectional view of a light and power unit of this invention.
With reference to the Drawing, and initially to FIG. 1, a borescope assembly 10 according to one embodiment of the present invention has an elongated, narrow insertion tube 11 having a distal tip 12 and a control handle 13 located at its proximal end. Wires, cables, and fiber optic bundles pass from the distal tip 12 through the insertion tube 11 and handle 13 and from there through a flexible tubular umbilical 14. The umbilical 14 is Joined by a strain relief to a sealed plug-in processing module 15. The module 15 has a sealed casing or housing 16 with protruding tubes or sleeves 17 that project from its proximal face. The processor module 15 serves as a connector module and plugs into a socket 18 on the front panel 19 of the cabinet of an associated light and power unit 20. The front panel 19 has associated controls and displays 21. A video monitor 22, which can be a color or black-and-white CRT, or can possibly be a projecting screen device or an LCD monitor, is coupled by a suitable cable 23 to the unit 20. The latter has a suitable wiring harness therein to connect the monitor 22 to the module 15. A miniature video camera 24 contains focusing lenses and a small solid-state imager, and is disposed in the distal tip 12 of the insertion tube 11.
Projecting ribs 25 on opposite side walls of the casing 16 serve as keys for fitting into mating recesses 26 in the sides of the socket 18. The ribs are positioned somewhat asymmetrically so that the module 15 cannot be inadvertently installed upside down.
As shown in FIG. 2, there is a multi-pin electrical connector 27 disposed on the proximal wall of the module 15. This connector 27 includes several contact pins to bring power into the module and other pins which deliver a processed video signal that can be carried by the wiring harness and the cable 23 to the monitor 22. There are also a pair of locating pins or studs 28 disposed one on each side of the connector 27. These serve to locate or position the connector within the socket 18 when the processor module 15 is installed into the socket.
As shown in FIG. 3, in this case a fiber optic bundle 30 for carrying illumination to the distal end of the insertion tube 11 has a proximal end 32 disposed in one of the tubular sleeves 17. This sleeve 17 serves to position the proximal end 32 in position to receive light from a light source.
Also shown here are signal and control wires 33 which extend from the module 15, through the umbilical 14 and the insertion tube 11, to the camera 24. A grounding strap or pigtail 34 unites a ground conductor 35 in the umbilical to a grounding plate 36 disposed on the proximal side of the housing, and which is in electrical contact with each of the two sleeves 17.
Also shown here there is a retaining detent 37 within the unit 20 and which is electrically connected to chassis ground within the light and power unit 20. The detente 37 mechanically engages an annular recess 38 in the respective sleeve 17. This both couples the ground of the module 15 to the chassis ground of the unit 20, and also positions the fiber optic bundle end 32 accurately with respect to light sources to be described later.
As shown in FIG. 4, one or more printed circuit boards 40 disposed within the module housing 16 contains electronics which derive power from certain ones of the contact pins of the connector 27, and the electronics also provide a processed video signal to other pins of this connector 27.
The video processing circuitry also provides synchronizing and control signals over the conductors 33 to the miniature camera 24. The circuitry on the board or boards 40 receives the image signal from the camera, and processes the same to produce a suitable video signal in a desired format, e.g. NTSC, PAL, etc, so that it can be applied directly to the video monitor 22. With this arrangement, each video camera 24 is matched with its own video circuitry contained within the module 15. This means that each probe unit is entirely modular, that is, completely interchangeable so that modular borescopes, endoscopes, or laparoscopes of different types can be employed using a single light and power unit 20. Also, any individual probe unit 10 can be used with any of various similar light and power units 20.
The probe unit 10 is entirely sealed, and can be completely immersed in ethylene oxide or another sterilization agent for sterilization between uses. The circuit board or boards 40 is environmentally sealed within the housing.
As shown in FIG. 5, within the cabinet of the unit 20 and located behind the socket 18, there is a lamp assembly 50. This includes a low power metal halide discharge lamp 52 and an elliptical reflector 53, with the lamp 52 positioned at a first focus of the reflector. Positioned above the lamp and reflection is an associated ballast 54, i.e., a power supply for the lamp. Also within the cabinet is a power supply 55, which provides appropriate electrical current to the lamp ballast 54, and also provides the various required dc levels, through the coupler 27, to the electrical circuitry within the module 15.
The discharge lamp 52 is a low-wattage unit (e.g. 20 watts) containing suitable halide salts to emit white light, i.e. comprised of red, green and blue wavelengths, but without appreciable amounts of infrared radiation. The lamp has a very small arc gap so as to constitute a point source, whereby the reflected spot at its second focus is quite small.
Also within the socket 18 is a mating electrical connector (obscured in this view) which mates with the coupler 27 when the module 15 is completely inserted into the socket 18. Receptacles 48 are situated within the socket to receive and to locate the sleeves 17. These ensure that the fiber optic bundle end 32 is positioned at a location to receive the focussed spot of light from the lamp assembly 50.
While this invention has been described in detail with respect to a selected embodiment, it should be understood that the invention is not limited to that precise embodiment. Instead, many modifications and variations would present themselves to those of skill in the art without departing from the scope and spirit of this invention, as defined in the appended claims.
