    Surplus in the Budget; Spend it Quick?
    As we approach election time we can see that the Republicans and Democrats are arguing over many issues such as global warming and international terrorism. Which one should we fear the most? Is it truly an either or situation or should we continue the war on terror and looked to mitigate some of the pollution that we create into the atmosphere?Additionally we find the Democrats do not want to make the tax cuts permanent, but rather they wish to stop the tax cuts and therefore raise our taxes. The Democrats say that if they raise taxes we can have a surplus in the budget. But we all know as soon as the Democrats have a surplus in the budget the first thing they will do is spend more

    Debt Consolidation Loans: Prevent Multiple Debts Take A Toll On Your Financial Health
    “Too many cooks spoil the broth”...and too many debts spoil your (financial) life. Excess of any one thing is bad, isn't it?In order to cope up with the demands of the modern lifestyle, sometimes borrowing money becomes inevitable. Having debt against your name is not a sin. However, you need to ascertain that you do not go overboard while borrowing money to fulfill your needs and desires. Having multiple debts pending against your name may have fatal repercussions if you are unable to manage the debts efficiently.It is quite hassling to remember the due date, the due amount and the creditors to whom the debts are to be repaid. There may be a chance that you forget or jumble up t
    Mark Foley is a name on the lips of many these days; mine included. It’s amazing actually. Conservative, Republicans, Liberals and Democrats are all appalled. This is the sort of unity that does not happen all that often on Capitol Hill and from sea to shining sea across the fruited plain. The problem is that while all sides are outraged and united in their outrage, they are outraged for different reasons.

    Conservatives are outraged because there is simply certain behavior that is unbecoming of our elected officials. Using their position of power as a dating service regardless of the age of their targets or the sexual orientation of the official is reprehensible. You’re in Washington to do a job, not get some action. Targeting minors and people under their tutelage just makes it all the worse.

    Republicans are outraged because Mark Foley is a black eye to their party and they still have enough conservative bones in their bodies (for the most part) to at least take offense as your average conservative would. Plus they know who their “base” is.

    Democrats are “outraged” over the Mark Foley affair because Republicans have shown that they can clean up their own house while Democrats like William Jefferson (caught red handed taking bribes), Cynthia McKinney (caught red handed battering a cop), Barney Frank (who allowed a prostitution ring to be run out of his office) and John Murtha (who took bribes in ABSCAM) always seem to be allowed to continue on with their service and stay in good standing with the party.

    Can You Market Effectively Without Purpose and Vision?
    I went to lunch with a friend the other day to ask him about his company's marketing journey.You see, I knew that he and his partner had hired a marketing coach a couple of years back. I wanted to find out what their experience was like and where they had challenges and successes along the way.This particular company is very typical of the small, service-based businesses that I focus on in my own marketing practice. They would tell you that they're a couple of accountants who are really good at what they do and enjoy the clients they work with. They would also tell you that they weren't marketing people who knew how to attract a steady stream of new business.I asked my

    Do You Really Know How to Treat Your Customers?
    I’m sure you’ve learned about taking away your customers risk by offering a money back guarantee. But, putting yourself on the line with a money back guarantee can be a little scary. I’m sure you’re thinking that people might take advantage of you. They might use the product and then return it.Yes, it’s possible, but if you are offering a quality product you will come out ahead. Like stated before, most businesses will experience about a 5% return rate. A 0% return rate is probably not possible and may not be worth the additional effort.Seriously.Even if your product is fantastic, people will still misinterpret what you are selling, or just change their mind about it.

    The Negotiation Coach
    All roads in business eventually lead to the bottom line. Everything we have done to this point has been to create value for our clients. This value will in turn give us the opportunity to charge more then would be normally possible. How do we charge for our products and services? The cost-plus method is the typical, trusted formula, however, this is leaving money on the table. Of course, we should have a very accurate method to measure all costs, and there are great accounting tools that are available to measure profitability. However, when we successfully exceed expectations, we can charge more because the client will happily pay more. Value based pricing needs to be an integrated philosophy

Liberals are likewise “outraged” because every time something happens that they can use to avoid talking about what they believe (i.e. raising taxes, wage fixing, impeaching Bush, socialized medicine, etc) it is a good thing for them. But at least we’re all “outraged”. That’s a start.

    Liberals have fired both barrels at the Republicans this past week. Perhaps it was done prematurely – time will tell. And as the left are scrambling to find more ammunition they have resorted to running around wildly and waving their hands in the air screaming like an irate Howard Dean. Now that the “shock” is dying down and there is no “awe” to be had, let the “confusion” begin!

    We’ve progressed passed the facts of the case which were that the parents of a Congressional page asked that Foley stop contacting their son because of “overly friendly” emails. That was promptly done. Even the family has admitted that saying “we asked (Alexander) to see that Congressman Foley stop emailing or contacting our son and to otherwise drop the matter in order to avoid a media frenzy. He did so.” and “If we had had any other knowledge or evidence of potential impropriety, we would have asked for the matter to be treated differently.”

    But since being “overly friendly” is not a crime no other action was taken at the time.

    Then more lurid instant messages mysteriously popped into existence. And before
