Fitness Business Basics
Derrick Wilburn, MBA
Many fitness professionals find out the hard way that there's a lot more to starting a business than just running an ad in the local newspaper and raking in the clients. In addition, there is a vast difference between being an independent personal trainer and owning a business. This lecture examines some of the very basic, yet very critical—and often overlooked—elements that go into opening and running a successful enterprise.
Universal Keys to Business Success
Nicki Anderson
As fitness business owners, we all can agree that you need a good menu of services to draw and retain clients and members. While many fitness facilities offer this, what will set you apart from your competitors is amazing customer service. This lecture will provide many keys to unlocking your business potential through customer service.
Lunch will be provided.
Avoiding Legal Pitfalls: Growing Your Business and Reducing Liability Exposure
Tricia Schafer, JD
Learn to spot the small problems before they become major liability risks. Whether you're an independent trainer, employee, or manager of a large facility, this overview of legal issues affecting the fitness industry will heighten your awareness and sharpen your risk-management skills so you can spend more time working with clients and growing your business, and less time putting out fires.
High Returns in a Low Economy— Marketing Strategies That Work!
Nicki Anderson
Now, more than ever, tighter budgets and lighter wallets have forced us to be creative when it comes to marketing our businesses. This session will offer some great, no-cost/low-cost universal marketing ideas so you can keep your name in front of potential customers.
Generating Clients/Customers Through Business Networking and Referrals
Derrick Wilburn, MBA
This session will explore, and hopefully get you comfortable with, the art of networking. You will be introduced to a variety of tools and techniques that demonstrate how to use individual styles to communicate, how to put people at ease and how to promote your business. Also, learn why referrals are the best form of business generation and walk away with four tactics to get referrals TODAY!
Growing Your Business in Spite of a Challenging Economy
Todd Durkin, MA
Yes! You can grow your business and increase profits in a depressed economy! In this enlightening session, you will get tips on how to improve your internal systems to increase efficiency, organization and profitability; create a competitive advantage and raving fans for life; and produce extraordinary results through effective time management.

011: Focus on Fitness Management—Success Through Synergy (For All Program Directors and Fitness Managers)
Preconference presented by: Bob Esquerre, MA, Darren Jacobson, Focus on Fitness Management Team, Lawrence Biscontini, MA, PJ O'Clair, and Sherri McMillan, MS
CECs/CEUs: ACE 0.50, ACSM 5.00, AFAA 8.00, NASM-CGT 0.70, NASM-CPT 0.70
The most successful clubs and programs are those that successfully manage the total member experience by providing exemplary training and service. In order to do this well, it makes sense that the group exercise and personal training communities must work together. This preconference session offers real information and strategies for creating and nurturing synergistic relationships between these two crucial segments within our industry. We will discuss proven ways to get whole departments to work together; the importance of cross- training our teams and developing universal skill sets; the dollars and cents of fitness and how it relates to running a profitable enterprise; and how to inspire excellence so your members have no other choice but to stay with you and sing your praises!
Managing the Member/Client Experience
Bob Esquerre, MA
What happens to our clubs, to our students, to our clients and to our professional careers if we successfully manage the member experience? We can "recession proof" the fitness industry! Our clubs will make at least an additional $97.9 million per year; as fitness professionals, we will make at least an additional $12.7 million per year; and our members/clients will get better results! Join Bob as he sets the business tone for 2009 and beyond!
Fostering Cooperation and Synergy Among the Whole Team
Sherri McMillan, MSc
It may be surprising to learn that most personal trainers don't like the other trainers they work with. And often there's a "disconnect" between the group exercise team and the training team. As your fitness staff grows, egos begin to clash and personality conflicts surface. Managers are left with high staff turnover and other human resource nightmares,leaving us drained with little to no energy left to work on enhancing and developing a department. This session will guide you through the leadership skills that need to be developed to get each individual on your team performing at their best while ensuring ultimate cooperation. Walk away with fun team-building drills and rewards that empower, connect and inspire your team toward a common vision.
Hybrid Trainers—The Wave of the Future
PJ O'Clair
What happens when you combine the skill set of a group exercise instructor with the skill set of a personal trainer or private Pilates instructor? What you have is the new "hybrid" fitness professional who will make more money for themselves and the clubs, help retain members, and provide more results-based programming options for consumers. To date, the hybrid professional has never truly been identified, embraced, or even recognized as a true commodity in the marketplace today. This session will identify the skill set necessary to cultivate this new hybrid professional in your facility.
Lunch 12:45–1:30pm (Lunch will be provided)
Solving Problems and Sharing Solutions (Facilitated Roundtable Discussions)
Focus on Fitness Management Team
As fitness managers, we all encounter many of the same challenges. Wouldn't it be nice to share those challenges in a nonthreatening environment and affect real change? This special segment of the Focus on Fitness Management preconference session will give you the opportunity to dissect the many issues that most managers face, discuss possible solutions to those problems and walk away with a clearer vision of how to troubleshoot and problem solve on your own.
The Real Bottom Line: Understanding Profit
Darren Jacobson
As personal trainer and group exercise managers, do we fully understand the role and responsibility of our departments and the real impact they can have in our facilities? This session will look at global business models relating to personal training, and incentive structures for retaining trainers. We will also discuss the infrastructure that exists in many group exercise department models and ways to turn your department into a highly-driven, customer-focused potential profit center.
Cream Rises: Promoting Excellence Among Instructors and Trainers
Lawrence Biscontini, MA
Great managers know how to empower their teams to achieve maximum results. This enlightening session will explore the many techniques you can use with your staff to take them from good to great! In addition, you will get tips on how you can help them sharpen their technical skills, be respected fitness ambassadors in the community, attract media attention for your club, and most importantly, encourage their professional growth.
Lunch is included in the registration fee.
A Certificate of Completion will be provided.

Join us for IDEA's first-ever nutrition preconference session. We have assembled three topics that have been in the headlines over the last year. Come get the latest information on eating green for better health (and a better environment), the lowdown on sugar and sugar substitutes and the research on vitamin D and its far-reaching affects.
Eating Green
Jenna Bell-Wilson, PhD, RD
Eating "green" has become synonymous with sustainability, locally grown and a more conscientious way of planning your meals. We will discuss this "slow food" movement, its characteristics and how you can healthfully, conveniently and easily incorporate this green trend into your daily living.
Sugar Sabotage!
Scott Josephson, MS, RD
Sugar or artificial sweetener! What should you use? This session will discuss several sources of sugar, including sucrose, fructose, sugar alcohols, artificial sweeteners (like Splenda® and Equal®), high fructose corn syrups, honey and others. Walk away with a better understanding of the composition of sugars and sweeteners, how they are metabolized, acceptable daily intake and their effects on appetite, weight loss, fat storage and stability.
Vitamin D: Expose Yourself to the Benefits
Shawn Dolan, PhD, RD
It is well know that vitamin D, the sunshine vitamin, plays an important physiological role in bone health. However, the latest research uncovers other vital functions of vitamin D, particularly related to chronic disease prevention. This lecture will teach you about the role vitamin D plays in osteoporosis and beyond by exploring links to hypertension, diabetes and cancer. You can't afford not to soak up your D!

016: New Science of the Human Body: The MELT Living-Body Model™
Preconference presented by: Sue Hitzmann, MS
CECs/CEUs: ACE 0.60, ACSM 6.00, AFAA 4.50, NASM-CGT 0.60, NASM-CPT 0.60
Do your clients have chronic tension or pain? Do you have pain? A recent survey of personal trainers and group exercise instructors found that over 88% experience chronic pain. In fact, 80% of all orthopedic injuries are sports or exercise induced. Although the fitness model has evolved by adding mind-body concepts and functional exercises, injuries are occurring at an alarming rate. Neurofascial science must be added to current fitness practices to reverse this trend. New research has revealed the root cause of pain in active people—dehydrated connective tissue that leads to an unresponsive NeuroCore™ system. These issues cannot be resolved with current exercise protocols, yoga or Pilates techniques. Even in the field of manual therapy, only a few techniques directly treat the neurofascial system.
This 6-hour program will reveal revolutionary neurofascial science regarding connective tissue, pelvic stability and the NeuroCore system. Presenter Sue Hitzmann has integrated and simplified this new science and created an applicable model for the fitness-to-wellness industry: the MELT Living-Body Model. Participants will:
- Gain a scientific understanding of new research of the human body regarding pelvic stability and mobility, the role of the diaphragm, tensional relationships and connective tissue, and how the neurofascial core system works to maintain postural integrity.
- Explore the MELT Living-Body Model as a foundation for assessing whole-body imbalance and misalignment to aid in program design of any modality.
- Apply cutting-edge science to the current musculoskeletal models to improve your ability to work with a broader variety of clientele.
- Learn the MELT Hand and Foot Treatment and how to use these neurofascial techniques to improve overall body connection, alignment and flexibility for one-on-one clients.
A Certificate of Completion will be provided.

017: STOTT PILATES® Intermediate Reformer on the V2 Max Plus™: Angle Advantage
Preconference presented by: PJ O'Clair

This interactive workshop explores the advantage of variable angles of resistance to facilitate and expand the existing STOTT PILATES intermediate reformer repertoire. Designed for participants already familiar with performing and teaching these exercises, this workshop will delve into the possibilities afforded by the V2 Max Plus Reformer's adjustable pulley system and extensor straps. Discover how to challenge core strength and stability while achieving increased range of motion in exercise modifications and new variations designed to develop balance, proprioceptively stimulate the neuromuscular system, and provide support. Emphasis will be on the goals of the exercises, biomechanics and alignment, as well as cuing and correcting for safety and effectiveness.
A Certificate of Completion will be provided.

Rachel Assil To Host Release Party At The Roxy Theatre
Indie singer/songwriter Rachel Assil recently visited The Recording Academy's headquarters to participate in an exclusive GRAMMY.com interview in advance of her official release party for The Opus Unplugged at the Roxy Theatre in Los Angeles on Aug. 30. Assil discussed her new album, musical influences and the performance lineup for the release party. In addition to Assil, artists Timothy Bloom, Irene Diaz, Dezi Paige, DJ Warrior, and Tha Boogie also discussed being part of the release party performance lineup, among other topics.
"The show at the Roxy is my album release for my debut album The Opus Unplugged," said Assil. "I wanted to make it a really special album release so I invited all of my friends [to perform]."
"I just love being onstage and being able to express the craft that I do," added Bloom.
Assil developed an ear for music at a young age, singing at 2, playing piano at 4 and writing songs by 8. Her diverse influences range from Freddie Mercury and Sade to Whitney Houston and Sarah McLachlan. The Opus Unplugged features 14 tracks spanning subjects such as life, love, heartbreak, and death. Assil has previously opened dates for GRAMMY winner Anthony Hamilton. She was also a performer at the first-ever ASCAP Women Behind the Music series in 2009.
In addition to Assil, performers at The Opus Unplugged release party will include producer/songwriter Bloom (Chris Brown, Ne-Yo), who released The Budding Rose EP in 2011; singer/songwriter Diaz, who is currently working on her debut EP; indie pop artist Paige, who recently released an EP titled Tall Tales; producer/songwriter DJ Warrior; pop/alternative duo Tha Boogie, consisting of Jarryd James and Tuko Proby, who this year released an album tilted Good Luck Charlie Vettuno; and former Pussycat Dolls member Melody Thornton, who recently released a 10-track mixtape titled P.O.Y.B.L.

According to the announcement, the extension resulted from the parties' awaiting approval from the board of governors of the Federal Reserve to move forward with the transaction. Investors filed its regulatory applications with all of the bank regulators in January and received approval from the FDIC and the N.J. Dept. of Banking and Insurance in June. The consideration and exchange ratio, and all other terms as provided in the shareholder-approved merger agreement will remain the same.
The combination was first announced late last year.

Mopar JK-8 Jeep Wrangler Pickup
By Arman Barari on Jul 16, 2011 with Comments 0
Chrysler and Jeep do not make a standard pickup version of the Wrangler. But Mopar the company's performance arm, stepped n and prepared the unique JK-8 kit which turns your ordinary Wrangler Unlimited SUV into a pickup truck.
Major components of the Mopar JK-8 kit include steel bed, inner and outer bedsides, sport bar extensions, Freedom panel assemblies, fiberglass hardtop and bulkhead. The kit is shipped in JK-8 and Mopar-stamped wooden crate (85.25-inch by 62.25-inch by 30-inch), instructions included.
Kit now available for ordering through Mopar at Chrysler, Jeep, Dodge and Ram dealerships, priced at $5,499. Dealership or skilled do-it-yourselfers may do the installation.
More details on the JK-8 kit and how to install it in the press release below:
"Jeep Wrangler and Wrangler Unlimited are some of our most accessorized vehicles," said Pietro Gorlier, President and CEO, Mopar, Chrysler Group LLC's service, parts and customer-care brand. "New Jeep Wrangler owners typically spend more than $500 on Mopar accessories. For Jeep Wrangler Unlimited owners, our new Mopar JK-8 kit answers the call for even more radical customization. And it's yet another example of how Mopar will continue to support our brands with innovative features."
Prior to the introduction of the JK-8 kit, Mopar introduced numerous industry-first features including in-vehicle Wi-Fi, off-road camper trailers, vehicle-information apps and an Electronic Vehicle Tracking System (EVTS). Most recently, the brand introduced its Ram Runner off-road desert-racer kit.
Mopar first revealed its JK-8 kit at this year's Moab Jeep Safari. The kit takes cues from the popular Jeep Scrambler CJ-8 from the 1980's. Major components include a spacious 44-inch by 50-inch steel bed, inner and outer bedsides constructed from stamped sheet metal, sport bar extensions, Freedom Panel assemblies, a removable fiberglass hardtop with a sliding rear window, two fixed side windows and a fiberglass bulkhead.
Staying true to the Jeep brand, the JK-8 kit offers Jeep Wrangler Unlimited capability in the form of a mini pickup. In addition, the top may be completely removed for an open-air experience.
A special badge is featured on the left rear quarter panel of each kit, celebrating the heritage of the Jeep Scrambler CJ-8, along with design implementations that were adopted from original J-8 military Jeep pickups.
For ease of purchase, the kit is available as a single part number (77070049) with all hardware and body panels included. The kit may be purchased and installed at a Chrysler, Jeep, Dodge or Ram dealership.
Conversion Process
Two processes are involved in the conversion from a four-door Jeep Wrangler Unlimited to a two-door pickup truck: disassembly and reassembly.
In disassembly, each rear door is removed. Next, the rear-bumper assembly, hard top and Freedom Panels are removed, followed by the rear portion of the interior, which includes seats and carpeting. Exterior trim parts are removed and preserved; inner and outer body panels are removed by drilling out the spot welds, which allows the panels to fall away and avoids having to cut into the sheet metal. The rear sport bar is cut away and removed along with B-pillars.
Reassembly into a two-door pickup truck begins with installation of the B-pillars, cross member, floor-pan assembly (truck bed), and the inner and outer quarter panels (welding is involved in assembly). Next to be installed is the bulkhead reinforcement assembly and sport bar extensions, and finally the installation of the fiberglass bulkhead itself. The kit, with components delivered e-coated, is then prepped for paint. Windows are installed to the hard top, which is then installed on the vehicle. Exterior trim parts are then reinstalled.
Following is information regarding some of the main components included in the Mopar JK-8 kit.
Mopar JK-8 Body Weld Kit Complete (All parts are sold together in one complete kit)
Freedom Panels: Fiberglass panels over front seats.
Hardtop: Made from fiberglass, the hard top may be removed and features a sliding rear window.
Bulkhead: The bulkhead for the kit is made of fiberglass and separates the cab from the bed of the truck, and permanently attaches to the vehicle.
Bed: The spacious 44-inch by 50-inch bed features strong steel construction.
Inner/Outer Bed Panels: Bed panels are stamped sheet metal and provide durability and functionality.
Sport Bar Extensions: New sport bar extensions replace the rear portion of the sport bar that is removed for the conversion. These bars complement the structure of the vehicle.
Mopar-First Features
Mopar has introduced numerous industry-first features including:
- Camper trailers: first to introduce off-road camper trailers
- Vehicle-information apps: first to introduce smartphone vehicle-information applications, a new channel of communication with consumers
- Electronic owner manuals: first to introduce traditional owner manuals in a DVD and brief user-guide format
- Electronic Vehicle Tracking System (EVTS): first to market with a new interactive vehicle tracking device that sends owner a text when vehicle is driven too fast or too far based on pre-set parameters

"The Society of St. Pius X is a work of the Church. It was born providentially in the Church and for the Church."[1] But it was born in the particular circumstances in which the Church finds herself today.
As a work of the Church, the Society recognizes Pope Francis as pope of the Holy Catholic Church and promises obedience to the Roman Pontiff in all of his legitimate acts.
It adheres
with all its heart, with all its soul to Catholic Rome, guardian of the Catholic Faith and of the traditions necessary for the preservation of that Faith, to Eternal Rome, teacher of wisdom and truth."
On the other hand it refuses
and has always refused to follow the Rome of the neo-Modernist and neo-Protestant tendency that clearly manifested itself in the Second Vatican Council and after the Council in all the reforms that resulted from it."[2]
The practical organization of the Society follows its Statutes, which were recognized and praised by the Church. These Statutes are all aimed at the sanctification of the priest and provide the plan and the rules that its members strive to follow. In particular through their common life, organized in priories, the members find "a setting that breathes an atmosphere of faith, prayer and fraternal charity".[3]
"The Society is essentially apostolic."[4] Its members, when they are not dedicated to the formation of future priests in the seminaries, devote themselves to the service of the faithful in the chapels, the schools, the missions and the works of the apostolate.
We have only one desire, to make Catholic priests, because the Catholic Church cannot continue without priests. We have no other ambition than to be able to exhale our last breath saying that we contributed to the building up of the Church and not to her destruction."[5]

Rune Remoy needed a new other design and created a contest on 99designs.
A winner was selected from 23 designs submitted by 11 freelance designers.
TheBeat / RadioMetro
We are a Norwegian radio company operating two radio brands in the Oslo metropolitan area: Radio Metro and The Beat
Radio Metro (http://www.radiometro.no) is an Adult Hits radio station playing a mix of soft adult classic and contemporary hits. The brand is about a fun morning show and relaxing variety of music. The predominant colors are blue on a crisp white background. Please see http://www.radiometro.no for a feel of the brand.
The Beat FM 104,8 is a contemporary hit station playing the latest Hip Hop and R&B hits. Predominant colors are black and red. Please see http://www.thebeat.no for more.
We will decide on the final design on Monday at noon so please feel fre to submit your sketch on the weekend so that we have time to interact.
The Radio Metro target audience is adults 25-54yrs looking for radio to relax them. The core target is 35-45 with a female skew.
The Beat target audience is 12-29yrs looking for radio to energize them. The station is very music intensive and targets listeners who are only looking for the newest hits.
We have acquired a vehicle for outdoor promotions for both brands. We wish to wrap the vehicle in foil using the graphical elements of both stations creating a black side for The Beat and a white side for Radio Metro.
This dual purpose van will be parked with the black side facing the audience whenever we are doing an outside broadcast for The Beat and the white side facing the audience whenever we are doing an outside broadcast for The Beat.
A pdf file of the van with the black and white background is enclosed as Vitolang.pdf
We need you to design two branded theme wraps for each side of the van using the existing artwork (logo and pictures)
For the "Black Side" we wish the use the Beat Logo (enclosed as eps file) the tagline "# 1 FOR HIP HOP AND R&B " as well as the main frequency FM 104,8. We would also like to use a couple of core artist pictures integrated into the design. (the pictures of JayZ, Beyonce and KarpeDiem are enclosed) The Beat font used is Distress
For the "White Side" we wish to use the Radio Metro Logo (enclosed as eps file) a blue sky theme on the back part of the van fading into white on the front part towards the driver door. We wish to integrate a picture of the morning team (enclosed as MetroMorningShow.jpg) in the design.
We are looking for eye candy so be creative !

Warriors battle Spurs in Alamo City
(SportsNetwork.com) - The two best teams in the Western Conference clash in a playoff rematch from last season when the Golden State Warriors visit the San Antonio Spurs Friday night.
Both teams come into Friday's marquee matchup at 4-1 and share the best record out west. The Indiana Pacers own the NBA's best mark at a perfect 5-0.
The Spurs dispatched the Warriors in six games of last season's Western Conference semifinals. After an offseason of big moves, Golden State wants to be considered in the upper echelon, a spot the Spurs have dwelled for almost 20 years.
Golden State comes into Friday's contest 2-0 on a current four-game road trip. They beat the Philadelphia 76ers on Monday, then knocked off a gritty Minnesota Timberwolves squad on Wednesday.
That win came at a price as Stephen Curry, the Warriors outstanding point guard, suffered a left ankle bone bruise. He did not play in the fourth quarter against Minny and is listed as day-to-day.
"It's fine. I was going to try and force and get back out there but you've got to be smart long term about this being a nagging thing down the road," said Curry.
Klay Thompson picked up the slack for his backcourt mate with 30 points. David Lee had an impressive night against Minnesota's bigs with 22 points and 15 rebounds, while Andre Iguodala managed 20 points.
The Warriors lead the NBA in scoring at 110.8 ppg and their plus-12.8 average point differential is also first.
But things won't be that easy against the Spurs, last season's Western Conference champions.
San Antonio is coming off a 99-96 home victory over the Phoenix Suns on Wednesday. The Spurs boast an All-Star caliber point guard themselves in Tony Parker.
Parker netted 15 of his 20 points in the final frame, including a go-ahead jumper with 31.9 seconds left, to lift the Spurs to a 99-96 victory.
"We expect him to give us that offense and distribute the ball," Spurs head coach Gregg Popovich said of Parker. "He's been doing it for a long, long time now."
Danny Green had 19 points for the Spurs, followed by 17 from future Hall of Famer Tim Duncan, and 11 from Boris Diaw, who started in place of Tiago Splitter against the Suns.
The Warriors won Game 2 in San Antonio during the postseason, but they have dropped a staggering 29 consecutive games in Alamo City during the regular season.
The last time Golden State beat the Spurs on the road during the regular season was Valentine's Day of 1997. Duncan was not yet a member of the Spurs.

AMSTERDAM (AP) — Consumer goods giant Unilever, maker of Ben & Jerry's ice cream, said Tuesday that sales slowed in the fourth quarter due to weakness in emerging markets and are expected to remain muted until later in 2014.
The company said "underlying" sales — that is, stripping out the impact of currency effects and new businesses — rose 4.1 percent. While the figure was better than analysts had expected, it was entirely reliant on demand in emerging markets, which slowed.
Developed markets like the U.S. and Europe are not improving quickly enough to benefit the company.
"The growth that you see in the United States and some people get excited about is not enough to make a difference" to Unilever, Chief Executive Paul Polman said on a conference call with analysts. He repeated the company's goal of maintaining margins while growing faster than the markets it competes in, with brands such as Dove soaps, Vaseline, Axe deodorants, Omo laundry detergent, and many others.
For the full year 2013, sales fell 3 percent to 49.8 billion euros ($67.5 billion), mostly due to the strong euro, and net profit was up 9 percent to 5.3 billion euros. Unilever PLC managed to improve its operating margins to 15.1 percent from 13.6 percent. It did not release quarterly profit and loss figures.
The company said demand in emerging markets has been dampened by weaker currencies, and in developed economies it has seen little improvement — despite a rise in economic indicators. The U.S. jobs market has been improving steadily and the European Union emerged from recession last year.
Underlying sales, the figure most closely watched by financial analysts, seeks to strip out the effect of currency movements and the buying and selling of businesses. The 4.1 percent gain was slightly worse than the 4.3 percent the company showed for the year 2013 taken as a whole. Actual sales fell by 6.4 percent to 11.8 billion euros, mostly due to the stronger euro.
In developed markets, underlying sales fell 1.7 percent, half due to volume falls and half due to lower selling prices. In emerging markets, underlying sales grew 8.4 percent, with volume growth of more than 5 percent and price increases making up the balance.
Shares, which have lagged those of competitors in recent months, rose 3.9 percent to 29.95 euros in early Amsterdam trading.

This week we can expect President Obama to speak to immigration reform and a new immigration proposal to be unveiled in the Senate. I have discussed in this blog the importance of creating a U.S. Startup Visa for high skilled immigrants—but only in the context of America's loss. We take a look today on what America's loss in terms of brainpower and innovation skills means for one nation—India.
In recent years, there has been a growing trend in the U.S. of Indian and Chinese highly skilled immigrants leaving to return to their home countries. These returnees are relatively young (35 and 37) and most of them hold Master's and PhD degrees in management, technology or science. In an often cited Kauffman Foundation study, 56.6 percent of Indian respondents indicated that they would be likely to start a business in the next five years, and 53.5 percent of them believed their best opportunities for entrepreneurship were in their home country. Is the Indian startup ecosystem leveraging the growth engine leaving the U.S.?
Beyond the high-skilled returnees, India of course has locally-trained talent. It is home to some of the most prestigious technology schools, such as the IITs (Indian Institutes of Technology). In 2007, the country doubled the number of engineers who graduated with bachelor's degrees from 125,000 in 2004. And the numbers have continued to grow. Clearly, there is a strong talent pool for innovation in India, not to mention the market size of this nation of 1.2 billion combined with rising salaries. This presents opportunities for startups to cater to various demands of the growing middle class segment, something where returnees bring valuable experience.
While Indian business remains concentrated among well-connected conglomerates that date back generations, the country has come a long way to support new business creation. Before 1991, the year India began to dismantle controls, lower tariffs and taxes, breaking state monopolies and opening the country to trade and foreign investment, Indian business success was almost strictly a function of licenses, government connections, and an understanding of the bureaucratic system. Reforms since 1991 put this economy among the promising BRIC countries (Brazil, Russia, India, and China). Market liberalization and the IT boom in the late '90s lead to significant waves of entrepreneurship in India. Take TV channels; India created over 400 channels in less than two decades. According to 2012 IMF data, India is the 11th largest economy in the world, the third largest in Asia, and the second largest among emerging nations.
Capital for entrepreneurs is still scarce, but a lot of early-stage venture funds have been coming from offshore investors. Once again, returnees bring enormous value to the creation of more elaborate global networks of angel and VC markets. For example, Mumbai Angels started in 2006 with just two investors and today there are 150. Other angel networks are popping up in Delhi and Bangalore. Also, several successful businesses are betting on the development of local technologies and have started incubators as well as venture capital and private equity funds (e.g. Infosys, Wadhawan Group and Wipro). There are also partnership building networks between investors like GSF India and the recently launched GSF Accelerator to offer mentoring and seed funding to tech startups across Mumbai, Delhi and Bangalore.
In terms of innovation, India is still punching far below its weight— something where it can again benefit from young returnees with science PhDs. The 2012 Policy Innovation Index shows that India lags behind Brazil and China in terms of overall innovation—enabling policies that create the conditions in which innovation can flourish. While it fares well in some areas composing the index, such as in R&D tax credits, other dimensions of innovation policy are holding it back. For example, India prohibits foreign investments in real estate, nuclear energy, railways and most agricultural activities, among other sectors. In terms of investments in higher education R&D, India is at the bottom of the Policy Innovation Index rank, with only 0.04 percent of its GDP allocated for this purpose (compared to Brazil's 0.43% or top-ranking Sweden's 0.79%). It also ranks well below other countries in terms of fostering local domestic market competition, which is vital to create the conditions in which new, entrepreneurial firms can flourish.
Not all challenges to startups in India will benefit from US returnees. While it is difficult to measure entrepreneurship accurately, let alone innovative entrepreneurship, if you take the number of new firms created per 1,000 workers employed in 2009, India has the lowest among the 55 countries studied in the Policy Innovation Index. By that measure, India created just 0.12 firms for every 1,000 workers employed, compared to 6.30 in China or 8.05 in the UK. Moreover, there is an apparent lack of growth among new business. PricewaterhouseCoopers and the Confederation of Indian Industry estimate that the small firms that exist add only an estimated 3.3 million jobs per year, which is not enough to accommodate the roughly 13 million people entering India's job market. The 2011 Legatum Institute survey of more than 2,000 Indian business owners and entrepreneurs in turn revealed that big companies are growing faster than small companies. Nearly half (48%) of all companies in India with 500 employees or more grew at a rate of 15% or more from 2010 to 2011, and 26% of those companies were growing at rates greater than 25%. In contrast, only 6% of companies with 1 to 49 employees grew at a rate of 25% or more. We can't equate small firms with young firms, but this trend is nonetheless indicating that India's economy is not as entrepreneurial as it could be.
Red tape and corruption might explain some of the low new business creation rates and the apparent lack of business growth among those outside big firm capitalism. By World Bank measures, the cost to start a business in India (measured as the percent of income per capita) is near prohibitive: 46.8 percent of average per-capita income. In terms of the regulatory environment for enforcement of private contracts, 46 procedures are necessary in India, and it takes 1,420 days. This translates into high costs and time-consumption for entrepreneurs. Entrepreneurs also consider the costs of failure, a likely probability for most business startups. In India, closing a business (i.e. resolving insolvency) takes four years. Overall, it is not easy to be an entrepreneur in India. Among the 183 economies studied by the World Bank´s Doing Business project, India ranks 132nd in terms of the overall ease of doing business.
Correcting these inefficiencies will not be easy given the climate of corruption. In the same 2011 Legatum Institute survey, more than 9 out of 10 entrepreneurs said they believe that corruption is a problem in India and approximately 80% of those interviewed believe that the problem is actually getting worse.
Nonetheless, some entrepreneurs are defying the odds and generating pressure for change from the bottom up—and those with U.S. experience in entrepreneur-led startup communities have much to contribute. There are a number of success stories of first-generation entrepreneurs showing that you don't need to come from a Tata-like empire to build growth companies, such as Infosys' Narayana Murthy, Bharti Airtel's Sunil Mittal and WINIT´s Prakash Sreewastav, who took the entrepreneurial plunge and built fast growing companies from the ground up. The 2011 Legatum survey in fact revealed that the majority of current entrepreneurs (84 percent) perceive India as a good place to succeed, although the younger generation is less optimistic.
Beyond the anti-entrepreneurial incentives embedded in some of India's policies and regulations, and the need for improvement in physical infrastructure, a big challenge for entrepreneurs in India is attracting talent. Most young professionals still prefer safer jobs at large companies. As a local business expert told ZDNetAsia, even if one percent of the roughly 200,000 engineers currently working in India's R&D market decide to do something on their own, India would have a significant number of startups. Many call for better education to help prepare emerging young talent to become entrepreneurs and to break the cultural fear of failure. Here again is where returning nascent entrepreneurs from America bring great value.
India must clearly work to put effective regulations and policies in place to enable entrepreneurial and innovative activity to flourish. Its institutions must continue to shift to a new, more sustainable model of growth rather than catering to the needs of the big firms. And more programs like Startup Village, a recently inaugurated telecom incubator resulting from the public-private partnership, can help groom startups.
However, a lack of action in the U.S. on high skilled immigration reform is surely India's gain. Last week, Canadian Minister Kenney announced his nation will launch its own Startup Visa on April 1, 2013, to recruit foreign startup talent. As startup entrepreneurs increasingly view the world as one market, I hope this week some of the U.S. chatter about "immigration reform" will remind Americans not just of our history as a melting pot, but that this is now an issue of global competitiveness as nations pursue entrepreneurs as net job creators who help grow economies.

An Unusual Place to Celebrate a Baseball Victory
The state of South Carolina is abuzz after the University of South Carolina Gamecocks won back-to-back national baseball championships. But one of Columbia International University's biggest baseball fans was not in the state to celebrate - he wasn't even in the country. The interim dean of the CIU College of Arts & Sciences, Dr. Bryan Beyer, was leading a study tour of CIU students in Israel. But once word of the Gamecocks victory reached The Holy Land, Beyer and former University of South Carolina student Jenni Russo did the best they could to celebrate. They got out "Cocky" - the University of South Carolina mascot who was on the trip with them, and took a few photos of him on the Sea of Galilee. They then sent the photos to a South Carolina TV station to show that folks from South Carolina were celebrating - everywhere.
The photo shows Cocky on a boat with the Cliffs of Arbel in the background. For more on the Cliffs of Arbel, check out CIU's "Ancient Sandals" Web site.
Each year CIU's Travelearn takes students on study tours of Europe and Israel. These classes are often life changing for students, as they visit historic sites associated with their faith.

Prostate Cancer
Biopsy Negative but PSA Level Increasing
My father was diagnosed with prostate cancer approximately six years ago. He underwent hormone treatments and radiation. Although the treatments seemed successful, his PSA levels have been increasing slowly in the last six months to a year. Recently a prostate biopsy was performed and the results were negative however his PSA level had increased yet again. What does this typically mean? The doctor is suggesting that he start on the hormone injections again to keep the PSA levels in check.
It depends how hight the PSA has been increasing. It could indicate that there is still cancer present in the prostate or outside the prostate. In some instances a CT of the pelvis and a bone scan may be indicated. It may be appropriate to restart the hormones. You certainly want to speak directly with the medical oncologist or urologist to discuss this.

Dating site about me help
These guys are all smart and really funny! But as far as dating profiles go…. A mix of seriousness added in would make these profiles perfect! Very youthful profiles because, well, these men are young. These guys have revealed very little about who they are, in a sense. I bet they would be worth meeting! Radio Wright August 30, , 3: You say these profiles reveal very little about themselves. I see a bit of mystery as a good thing, no a great thing.
What more do you think they should reveal? Thanks for your comment. Reply laurie April 5, , 3: Reply Mike October 24, , 5: Radio Wright October 24, , 7: You also seem to be implying that if a guy is a serial killer or a bank robber that he is going to list it in his profile.
Just go on a date, get some drinks and get to know each other. Guys know women are extremely judgemental creatures and will judge everything and anything about a guys profile. We keep ourselves a mystery partly because women like that and partly because we are afraid we might say something about ourselves that will make a woman judge us and never even wish to meet us.
Reply Radio Wright March 20, , When I stopped trying to please everyone and learned to communicate my main needs without worrying about who I was going to push away, I started attracting the type of women that I really fit with.
Another issue with playing it safe and trying to cast a wide net is that you force the girl to switch her screening process over to depend more heavily on superficial things like looks, height etc. I definitely agree with you to keep things mysterious but think getting some core things down are better than being super generic.
Does that make sense? Dave Thundercloud December 20, , 7: Not sure how other dating sites do it though. Dustin and Mike are spot on. Best to keep things brief. Radio Wright March 20, , Sarawu February 27, , 8: I find most men on match to have redundant and boring profiles, which may or or may not be an indicator of what they will be like in person.
Which site are these guys on? Lol and why did you remove the 2 top secret profiles? Reply Radio Wright February 27, , 6: Most men DO have boring profiles. What happened to the Top Secret profiles?
Reply Radio July 2, , 9: Women are very attracted to intelligence. What makes you think that? There are many types of intelligence. Was I being a smart ass? Did I really listen? Did I make them feel stupid with my lack of tactfulness?
Centerbound2 November 25, , 8: Can you give some tips or examples, how to have a good profile intro? Reply Radio Wright September 25, , 4: I have to keep some things for the Academy Members.
Reply marcus October 7, , 8: Whilst I got some comments with my own picture complaining how harsh I was being…. Radio Wright October 9, , 2: Uhhh — Not sure what you proved there other than male models attract women…….

Staten Island, NY - Matrix Games and Wastelands Interactive are pleased to release a playable demo for their popular new Pacific theater strategy game, Storm over the Pacific. The demo includes the Pacific Campaign with 15 turns and no saves, a variant of the Okinawa Scenario where you cannot increase the size of units, and the Editor. The demo is available from the official downloads section.
Each of the three components of the demo do a solid job of illustrating the fantastic accessibility and replay value found in Storm over the Pacific: the campaign gives gamers the chance to command the enormity of the Pacific theater without bogging them down with too many details, the scenarios offer a quick but engaging strategic puzzle, and the Editor offers gamers a chance to construct their own engagements so there's nearly limitless replay value!
David Heath, Director of Operations at Matrix Games, said "Storm over the Pacific does a great job of letting gamers enjoy the strategic challenges facing commanders on both sides of the Second World War without too much work. This demo gives gamers just enough of the campaign so that the 'one more turn' addiction we all know and love will be in full swing!"
The creators of WW2: Time of Wrath move to the Pacific theater with Storm over the Pacific. Depicting the epic conflict between Japan and the United States, players choose from 26 available countries with historically accurate orders of battle including land, sea and air units and leaders. Concentrate on directing one country or command several to lead an alliance of nations. Engage in battle over the vast expanse of the Pacific with 16 unit types modeled with an intuitive supply system and governed by realistic and historically accurate weather patterns.
Behind the front lines, players can also manage alliances, monitor economic conditions, and research new technologies. With shrewd management of research resources, players may even embark on a dramatic race to develop Atomic weapons and turn the tide of the war! Even the best laid plans may still falter, though, as hundreds of historical events may occur throughout a campaign, adding the element of surprise and unpredictability that is so commonly found in war.
Storm over the Pacific also sports a configurable user interface that allows you to freely arrange the information and orders panes on the screen. With this sort of freedom, commanding armies and managing nations is easier than ever! Create your own intuitive interface suited to your play style so you can concentrate on plotting to defeat your enemies!
Get more information on Storm over the Pacific from its official product page.
Matrix Games produces, markets and publishes historical wargames as well as other computer gaming products. Since 2000, Matrix Games has published over one hundred titles and several award-winning games, including Gary Grigsby's War in the Pacific, Close Combat: The Longest Day, Harpoon 3 Advanced Naval Warfare, John Tiller's Campaign Series, Conquest of the Aegean, Crown of Glory: Emperor's Edition, Battles In Normandy and Norm Koger's The Operational Art of War III. Matrix Games is based in Staten Island, New York. For more information, visit the Matrix Games website at www.matrixgames.com.

Watch The ::God Is Imaginary Videos On YouTube ::
I am in the middle of writing another post, but as part of the process of writing it, I figured out a key, critical problem with the Cosmological Argument. It relies on the Principle of Sufficient Reason - that nothing happens without a cause, but that since an infinite series of causes is impossible, there must have been a first, uncaused cause. Fair enough, at least for the sake of argument.
However, if an infinite series of causes is impossible because you need a first cause in order to have all the intermediate causes and the most recent cause, would that not also mean that other infinite series are also impossible, for much the same reason? For example, take the description "all-powerful". It cannot be true unless something is more powerful than everything else, yet in order to be that, it must be infinite, because otherwise something could be more powerful than it. Yet it cannot be infinite, because that would create a never-ending (and never-beginning) series of power levels.

A wellness-centered shared working space founded by a former WeWork executive will move into the top two floors of the former Barnes and Noble on the Third Street Promenade later this fall. The 30,000-square-foot space called 'work well win Santa Monica' is the first of 90 coworking spaces opening in various cities over the next five years offering perks like meditation rooms, yoga, organic food and even purified air.
"Santa Monica was super important for us to get a location because it embodies everything we are trying to achieve," said work well win CEO Frank Bistrian in an interview with the Daily Press. Bistrian said his long commute home from New York City on the Metro-North commuter rail line inspired his idea for a more mindful workspace. "I would look around me and everybody just looked like they'd been beaten up all day and I just figured there's got to be a better way."
The future of the ground floor at 1201 Third Street Promenade is still up in the air but will likely require some buildout to break up the large floor area into several different spaces, according to a source with knowledge of the leasing process. The property owner is primarily looking for food and beverage concepts that would thrive where the Promenade meets busy Wilshire Boulevard.
While it may seem superfluous, Bistrian touted purified air as one of the main benefits of his new workspaces, citing a study that found office air five times more polluted than outdoor air. A 1989 EPA report found better office air quality would result in more productivity and fewer sick days for employees. The CEO hopes to fill the space with up to 400 professionals.
"We're not as much into the tech frat type thing," Bistrian said. "We're targeting more of a mature audience. Both entrepreneurs and more grown-up professionals as well as large corporations."
There are already a dozen office buildings peppered along the Promenade, with workers from about 40 companies toiling above restaurants and retail, according to data from commercial real estate analyst CoStar. Work well win is first co-working space on the street.
The company is working with Lushing Realty Advisors and DFH Architects to preserve the building's retro exterior while adding new signage (it is not a local landmark). The design scheme for the interior is "Hygge Surf," a nod to the beach and to a trendy Scandinavian aesthetic associated with coziness, wellness, and contentment.
"Work well win is unlike existing co-working solutions: it's designed from the ground up with wellness holistically integrated…to improve your work day, ultimately improving your life," said a press release from the start-up which recently announced a $22 million fundraising round from real-estate investors.
The beloved Barnes and Noble store quietly closed its doors earlier this year after more than twenty years on the Promenade. Nationally, the chain has been hit hard by the so-called "retail apocalypse" as sales have fallen for seven straight quarters with more consumers buying books with the click of a mouse or the swipe of a finger on the internet. The company's CEO Demos Parneros told investors late last year new locations will be smaller and "more efficient." A few months later, Barnes and Noble laid off cashiers across the country blaming sluggish holiday sales.
When the redesign by DFH is finished, the inside of the former bookstore will be unrecognizable.
"This space will have light blonde wood floors, cool beach blue tones, graphic statement walls, live plant walls, swing chairs, casual lounges and a surfboard rack space," said head of design Cecilia Walker. "In addition to the design schematic, architecturally the interior will have a light-filled central atrium with rooftop skylights with an open internal staircase to promote an 'active design' where our members can move, walk and collaborate from floor to floor."
The curved corners and horizontal lines of the facade are hallmarks of the streamline moderne architecture style prominent in the Los Angeles area in the late 1930's. The building was constructed in 1935, according to Kay Pattison with the Santa Monica Conservancy. It was home to Ralph's supermarket before the Promenade became a pedestrian mall in the 1960's. During the recent revitalization, Barnes and Noble moved in to anchor the north end of the shopping district.

Join Las Hermanas Iglesias and the ACME Lab team to experience and collaborate on an interactive installation in which community members host actions, and participants contribute to a work in progress. At the core of the project is an invitation for creative experimentation. Each element of the sisters' ever-changing exhibition is designed to be activated, handled, moved, altered, worn, and played. Make your own rules at the UMFA to re-imagine, re-create, and re-invent.
Las Hermanas Iglesias: is the first exhibition in the UMFA's new ACME Lab, a space dedicated to community engagement and art experimentation.This exhibition and ACME Lab is made possible, in part, by a generous gift from The JoAnne L. Shrontz Family Foundation.

Las Hermanas Iglesias invite you to collaborate with ACME Lab by hosting a CREATIVE ACTION within the exhibition, .
The CALL TO ACTION! is a community-wide invitation to hold a public or private CREATIVE ACTION in the ACME Lab to promote interconnectivity, build community pride, and advocate for organizing. We think of a CREATIVE ACTION in an expansive sense. Perhaps you'd like to shoot a music video, hold an inter-generational talent show, facilitate a clothing-swap, celebrate a community member or achievement, or host a teach-in or improv movement workshop? We welcome you to hold your regular meeting in the Lab or invent a new reason to get together.
We encourage you to open your actions to the public. However, if it is necessary for an action to be closed, you may request to have the space reserved only for you. We're hoping that the sculptural environment of the Lab will be a creative catalyst to encourage your creative energies in new directions.
is open to the public during regular Museum hours. During the exhibition, the ACME Lab can be reserved for community use most Mondays, Wednesday afternoons and evenings, and Saturdays. Entrance to all UMFA galleries is free, except for ticketed exhibitions, for group members participating in a CREATIVE ACTION.
