Ashes to Ashes, Bytes to Bytes
She didn't have to die. She was young, she was beautiful, and, yes, she was exciting. Now she's gone, and it was all so unnecessary - so, so senseless!Dare I say what he did to her? Do I "point the finger" at him? Someone has to, I guess. Actually, it was a case of what he didn't do. You see, she was a charming new website and he - well, he was an inexperienced owner who thought all he had to do was open a well-done website and the world would zero-in on her and make him scads of cash.
He even called her "Carly Cash". The poor, misguided fool.If only he had known, there are a great many things he could have done to save her, indeed to help her thrive and fulfill her exciting promise. He could have:
- used business cards to promote his website. Probably the cheapest, most effective form of dirtside advertising is an attractive business card. He could carry them everywhere (alright, smartie, not in the shower).
Post them on supermarket, community and college bulletin boards. Drop one in the envelope when he pays a bill. Leave one, or more, at the video store, dentist's office, doctor's office, library, county jail - wherever. Maybe not the jail.
- issued a press release to the world. Huh? He could have sent a press release to his local media, after determining the names of the appropriate editors and news directors.
He could go to his favorite search engine, enter "press release", and doubtless be amazed at the result. He'd need to remember it's not called the World Wide Web for nothing. Getting a press release published ten thousand miles away can do him just as much good as appearing in a local paper.
- placed classified ads in "advertiser magazines", for lack of something better to call them. In this part of the world we have the Pennysaver, which carries announcements of local events, community activities, concerts, that sort of thing. But primarily it is classified ads for everything from aardvark toys to zebra-striped jammies.
And it's very popular - it's a garage sale in print and delivered by the postal service.
- arranged to appear as a guest on a radio talk show. Many AM stations are devoted to talk, he should know, because they don't carry music as well as FM stereo. Our wired, wired world is a popular talk topic and all he has to do is find our which stations, or show hosts, are so inclined. Interesting guests are always welcome (at some time or another). The same is true of local television talk shows like "AM Akron" or "Missoula in the Morning" (maybe not).
He should be aware that no show host, or station, is going to allow a prolonged commercial for his website. He will need to be able to speak intelligently about some aspect of the web,answer questions from the host/ess and perhaps the audience as well. The idea is to help brand him, create interest, instill trust, and get in a plug or two.
- thought creatively about publicity and likely come up with his own ideas. Had he been in his right mind (home of creativity and intuition) and fired up his imagination, maybe "Carly" wouldn't have died. Here's hoping her successor has a rich, rewarding life, and perhaps little bytes of her own.

Trier (ContentDesk) May 29, 2006 -- Started as an online branding creative cooperation, Pamil Visions has recently become a legitimate business. This should not be a surprise, declares Mihaela Lica, sites owner. We were committed to success, although weve started our business as a hobby. After a few months of working as freelancers, we are extremely proud to announce our achievement. Pamil Visions is a branded business, the very promise we made to all our clients and the very promise we kept.
Most of our orders come from international clients probably because the site is not translated into German yet. We do have some German clients as well especially for our logo design, translation and writing services. In the future we will concentrate more on the German clientele.
??? Our fees are really low, says Emil Maran. Yet not too low if you consider our target audience. We try to help people start a business.
We understand beginnings. Weve been there! And...

Liquidity or Liquidation
Large parts of the world today suffer from a severe liquidity crisis. The famed globalization of the capital markets seems to confine itself, ever more, to the richer parts, the more liquid exchanges, the more affluent geopolitical neighbourhoods. The fad of "emerging economies" has all but died out. Try telling the Macedonians about global capital markets: last year, the whole world invested 8 million USD in their poor country. Breadwinners earn 300 DM a month on average.
Officially, in excess of one third of the workforce is unemployed. Small wonder that people do not pay their bills, employers do not pay salaries, the banking system has a marked tendency to crash every now and then and the average real default rate is 50%.
Illiquidity erodes the trust between the economic players. Such trust is a precondition to the existence of a thriving, modern economy. We all postpone the gratification of our desires: we save now and consume later, for instance or we sell goods...

Basic Tarot for Beginners
If you would like to learn to read tarot cards, but have no idea who to ask to teach you or how to go about it, the following tips should help you get started on your path to telling fortunes just like a pro!Your first challenge is to choose a deck from the 8,000 or so published brands of fortune telling cards on the market. What works for one person often doesn't for another. Some people are comfortable reading several decks and others only identify psychically from a single brand. Your local bookstore will probably carry several choices of decks and the online store at Psychic Realm also has a selection of introductory Tarot. However, I highly recommend going to a store, picking up a deck and seeing if you like the feel of the cards.
The feel, weight or look of the cards often "speaks" to you. If you a feel a connection with the images on the cards or even how they feel in your hands, then that is probably the deck that you will relate to best. I also recommend a deck that comes...

A bulb placed behind the screen illuminates the TFT panel.
Upon receiving the data, the liquid crystals align themselves in various degrees. The alignment of...

A search engine robot actually reads the wording on your web pages and places a certain amount of importance on what the content says, but not quite like a human does. A human will place the words together in their head and try to decipher the relevancy to them personally and decide within a few seconds whether they will continue reading or click to another site, whereas a robot counts words and places all relevancy in the numbers it finds. It also gives extra credit to the size of the type and...
