Murray Laidlaw has just been given a 30,000-pound government grant to develop a GPS (Global Positioning system) device to help shoppers find products in stores. These devices will be affixed to shopping carts, and will display arrows to guide shoppers towards the product.

Now, you may wonder, “Why is this so terrible? In fact, it sounds like a pretty neat idea!” If you are wondering this, it is probably either a sign that you are a woman, or for some other reason, not male. You see, until now, men have had it pretty easy. We go shopping once in our life, screw it up really badly and are asked never to do it again. Now, all this is about to change. Women will be once again sending men to the stores, thinking that because of a revolutionary new satellite device we will be able to find what we need in stores.

Although this may seem scary to some men, I am confident this will fail. I don’t believe that a simple electronic shopping cart device that will probably be found to cause cancer in lab rats can cure Male Shopping Syndrome (MSS). Even if men would be able to find products in the stores, they would suddenly forget how to get to the stores. Or even better, be asked never to return to stores.

Men are not supposed to shop. It is dangerous for them. I went shopping once. I was stuck for hours looking for what I needed. Why can’t the stores stock shelves in alphabetical order? Why can’t soap, shampoo, and deodorant all be in the same aisle? I’ll tell you why. Because men are not supposed to be shopping. Our brains are not wired for the task. If we want to go to the store, it will be a large store with high ceilings and products like lumber, chainsaws, and sawdust. Or we can go to RadioShack or a car dealership. But that’s it. We cannot shop for what women refer to as “necessities”. As one of my favorite beer commercials once demonstrated, we value beer over toilet paper. Now, is that the kind of person you want choosing your basic toiletries?

Looking back at what I’ve written so far, I noticed something about these GPS devices causing cancer in laboratory rats (not to be confused with lavatory rats, which act as carriers for diseases, but do not in-fact get sick themselves). This is very alarming. How did these devices get approved? What is it going to take to keep cancerous devices out of our hands? Are cigarettes not enough? I like cigarettes. They come in a little box, which, if you want cancer, you can buy, and otherwise, you can stay cancer-free. But why must we, people who don’t want cancer, be forced to use these cancer-inducing shopping carts? Are they going to give us gamma suits to wear when we push around these carts? Why are they called gamma suits? And do they really work? Can I smoke when wearing one? How much do they cost?

1. Reputation
It is usually best to stick with a site that has a good solid reputation, especially if you are a beginner and you’ve never played poker online before. Most of the big names have an excellent reputation and they have to be absolutely fair in order to maintain this.

2. Signup Bonuses
We all love something for nothing and you will certainly get that when you sign up for poker online. Almost all of the sites will offer you some sort of bonus to sign up with them so you need to shop around and see who is offering the best deal. Of course there is nothing to stop you opening an account with several different sites if you want to.

3. Number of players.
All of the major sites have many thousands of players online at any one time. You will never struggle to get a game, there should always be a seat available for you. However some of the smaller sites attract far fewer visitors and you may end up frustrated, waiting for the right playing opportunity to arise.

4. Software
Most poker sites require you to download a piece of software (normally referred to as a “client”) before you can play. Some of these are better than others, there’s a big difference in the quality of graphics and ease of play between the clients available. You need to make sure you are playing on a site that you feel comfortable and enjoy playing at.

5. Statistics.
One of the important aspects of playing poker online is the availability of statistics. Each site’s poker client has a “lobby” area where you can view the tables and check out what’s happening, some of them also have good statistics about the table so you can decide which one to play. While you are playing there are some sites which give statistics of each hand “in-running”, this can also be a very useful feature.

So there you have it, now you know how to pick the best sites so go ahead and have fun!

From swish soirees to simply rotting away on the sofa, time suckage is at a maximum these days, thanks to the plethora of TV-to-DVD products, and they’re spawning new ways to fill your weekends.

TV programs, no doubt, have become the fastest growing segment of the DVD business, according to industry experts. Three years ago, fewer than a hundred shows were available on disc. Now, there are more than 800 on the market, with dozens more coming out each week.

According to Video Store Magazine research, U.S. sales of TV shows on DVD nearly tripled from $300 million in 2001 to $870 million in 2002. TV shows make up an estimated 10 per cent of the DVD market, which last year tallied more than $1 billion in sales.

While TV shows on DVD are nothing new - it’s arguably the biggest-growth genre in the digital format - today’s baby-boomer bounty demonstrates that classic series are coming out with increasing frequency. Call it a trend within a trend, one fueled by more older viewers tuning in to DVD as it continues to gain mass appeal and by studios digging deeper into their catalogs as they exhaust newer fare. Undeniably, there is a great sense of rediscovery as fans chase the titles they remember most fondly from their younger years - not just classic movies, but classic TV shows like: “I Love Lucy” and “Star Trek” besides “Have Gun, Will Travel”. This occurs in the music business, but it’s now redefining the home-video business.

The demand is certainly there, and so is the supply. Premium pricing and escalating demand translate into an increasingly lucrative profit channel for suppliers. According to the DVD Release Report, a weekly tip sheet, suppliers last year released 264 titles based on TV programs, more than 100 of them multidisc sets. The trend is toward complete-season sets, in which the difference in capacity and shelf space is most pronounced.

Everyone is getting into the act

Everyone, it seems, is getting in on the game. Paramount Home Entertainment is capturing demographic segments with such diverse fare as “I Love Lucy” and “Star Trek.”

Universal will release “Battlestar Galactica,” “Sliders,” “Quantum Leap,” “Dragnet,” “Emergency,” “Magnum P.I.” and “The Rockford Files.”

20th Century Fox Home Entertainment, which began the drive to market TV shows on DVD with “The X-Files,” is enjoying success with everything from “The Simpsons” to “Buffy the Vampire Slayer.”

Warner Home Video has released two best-selling complete-season packages of “Friends,” while HBO Home Video continues to score big with seasonal installments of “The Sopranos” and “Sex and the City.”

With the wealth of newer TV shows bowing on DVD, it appears both baby boomers and new buyers are ready to follow their TV favorites to DVD.

Outlook 2004

With the explosive popularity of TV shows on DVD, consumers are in for a big reality check. Sales of TV series on DVD are expected to top $2 billion this year, and reality TV is a niche studios are mining in hopes of continuing the profitable run. Once viewed as the ultimate in disposable programming, reality TV shows new and old are popping up on DVD, with enough buyers to sustain an even greater flow in coming months.

It couldn’t be Warren he has made arrangements to take his money with him and he is probably getting to old anyway and I don’t think he ever had an eye for the ladies.

Media mogul Kerry Packer, worth $US5 billion, is the richest Australian and ranks 94th. Shopping centre king Frank Lowy ranks 151st, with $US3.6 billion, and Richard Pratt, at No. 321, is worth $US2 billion.

Maybe our Billionaire Playboy can be found amongst the new faces anxious to enjoy his new found fortune! New billionaires include Eric Schmidt, CEO of Google, Ray Dolby, founder of Dolby Laboratories, Brazilian beer barons Carlos Sicupira and Marcel Telles, and Lebanon’s Saad Hariri. Just to name a few.

So is our mystery Playboy married? Maybe so because there are only 10 single gentlemen billionaires in the world!

He Couldn’t be Donald Trump he just got married, Richard Branson? What about Paul Allen? Isn’t Paul still the reclusive billionaire bachelor? Or maybe Larry Ellison?

Elvis has more young beautiful girls than any man on the planet. Estimated to be at over 1000 girlfriends! Talk about mystery… Is the world’s number 1 playboy’s real name really Elvis Preston King.

Steven:
Has it been difficult for you putting together a new band? There would seem to be an extraordinary amount of pressure on you to come up with a group of musicians that could compete with the Beatles.

Paul:
It was a bit touch and go at the beginning because it was a bit difficult for me to just suddenly develop a new band. Because let’s face it, the Beatles played Hamburg for like a year solid, playing eight hours a day before we ever were anything. Then we
still came back to Liverpool and played for years at these little places, Litherland Town Hall and the Aintree Institute. So it took a long time but that was the idea. We felt, ‘Well, we can’t take quite as long with this band but we’re gonna kinda duck out of the press thing and do little anonymous gigs.’ We did our university tour and we did a Europe tour which was a bit more kind of press but we thought we’ve got to swallow our pride and go right ahead.

Steven:
Were those considered breaking-in tours?

Paul:
Definitely, for us. It was to get the band used to playing. Because if you get any five people, it’s pretty hard to get a band out of it unless you’ve been going a year or so. It takes that long for five people to begin to understand each other.

Steven:
After playing with the same three musicians for such a long time, was it difficult to find new players? When you chose the people in Wings, were they your first choices?

Paul:
Yeah, they were all first choices. I didn’t do it like thinking, ‘OK, who are the best musicians in the world?’ and get it together like that. It was all done very kind of random, really; there was like a great element of randomness in it. I went to New York and we auditioned drummers which everyone said later was about the uncoolest thing you can do because these drummers are like the world’s top. And there’s me, I just got them all down in a basement and said, ‘Alright, lads …’ And they’re sitting there and there’s no band, each drummer is just sitting there. But Denny (Seiwell) was the one who kind of appealed to me; I thought he looks good, he sings, and he can drum great. And he’s picking up a lot of compliments now from musicians who think he ’s a red hot drummer. Brinsley really digs him, Brinsley’s drummer goes crazy over Denny. That’s Billy (Rankin).

Steven:
Was that your idea to bring Brinsley Schwarz on the tour?

Paul:
We did that special, that TV special, and that was kind of the end of our breaking-in period. We really hadn’t played very well, I don’t think any of us thought we played very well as a band up until the end of that special. And the last night, we did a concert for the special which we didn’t dig too much, it just didn’t get enough on for us. It was a bit of a dead audience.

Linda McCartney:
And the audience was just sitting there all hot.

Paul:
And they were all lit (with lights) and it was very. But we did a gig at the Hard Rock Café in London which is a real tiny, little thing for kind of charity. And Brinsley Schwarz were on before us and they kind of warmed it all up and they got a standup. Once you’ve heard a band rock a bit you can’t go on and not rock, you’ve got to play better. So we thought,’Great,’ and we went on after Brinsley and that was the first night we thought we played at all well. We were all double made up with that night. We rocked a bit that night.

Steven:
What are you going to do for a second encore? You’ll have to have one now.

Paul:
There are a lot of features with the act that are still a bit raw. Our opening is still possibly a bit raw, and the end we could go on a bit longer, but this is all fine tuning. The thing for us, the way we’ve done it is the idea of having places to go still. This is only our third thing really - university tour, European tour and this.

The aim was just to have a band, pure and simple. Have a good band. As to where we play, we’re easy. We’ll play down a pub if it’s cool, if we feel like it and they like it. But that’s the thing for us, we won’t naturally just play 50,000-seaters. That’s’ the interesting thing, we got Denny from New York, we auditioned some drummers there, and I knew Denny (Laine) was a good guitarist and good singer and stuff. So I just rang Denny up. And Henry was a kind of friend of Denny’s and Ian’s and he turned up one day at a rehearsal we were doing.

Henry McCullough:
Drunk!

Paul:
Drunk again. We didn’t really know, we were just thinking about it and stuff and he turned up and he played good stuff and that’s the kind of thing I meant about the element of random. It wasn’t like, ‘OK, now let’s audition another fifty guitarists and let’s see who’s who and what’s what.’ We just thought, ‘Great, let’s see how it goes’ and we had a band together then. It worked out good.

Henry McCullough:
Everybody got to know each other; you know me, I know you, and we took each other for what it is. We were a little bit scared of each other. It started off we were a little bit apprehensive and it was ‘Who’s this we’ve got in the group?’ but we managed to cool out.

Steven:
Did you have plans from the beginning to include Linda?

Paul:
Yeah, Linda was a kind of first inclusion because we’d done Ram together. I worked her so hard in New York because it was all very well having Linda on harmonies but I’m not having her do bum harmonies. So I only worked her like mad. I mean she had never done it before, she’d never done a thing before. If you listen to Ram, all those harmonies on there are just me and Linda. Pretty good, some of them. It was quite hard work as I said. I worked her hard on that album. There was a bit of (mimics Linda), ‘What do you mean I’m singing flat?’ But in the end it was OK and we did it.

Steven:
You must have noticed tonight that the more rock tunes you did created a bigger response. Will you emphasize those more and more?

Paul:
That’s what we’re thinking, that’s the way we’re going to include a few more of those kinds of numbers. The main thing in performance, an average audience always go for numbers they know. Witness tonight when we did ‘C Moon;’ as soon as we hit ‘C Moon,’ which was a hit in Britain but not in the States, how the audience reacted.

Linda McCartney:
On the university tour, we did some numbers twice.

Paul:
But rather than go back, we’d like to do new numbers in the same vein. And on the next album we’ll have another bunch of numbers from which to choose. And by the time that album is done the whole act will be there.

Steven:
How did it feel getting back on stage?

Paul:
It’s now beginning to feel really good. It feels good to have a gig. If you’re just recording it’s very nice but you get a bit sterile. It’s a bit testtube, a bit like being in the laboratory. And if you go out and play, it’s the difference between sex
and artificial insemination. Do you get what I mean? That’s what I think … audiences. It’s true enough, isn’t it?

Steven:
Being on stage, then, must be a natural place for you.

Paul:
You see I’ve always been, I suppose, a bit shy about getting up on stage. I remember the first time I ever got up on stage, I hauled my brother up with me. He had his arm in a cast, he’d broken his arm at scout camp, and I brought him up there with me. I brought my guitar with me and guess what I sang? ‘Long Tall Sally.’ I was eleven and still doing it.

The classic rock legends of rock and roll

We all keep hearing how important it is to grow our “lists.” Whether your list is an ezine, an online newsletter or a customer contact list it can create an income or generate additional traffic to your website.

The problem is that many web entrepreneurs don’t have the slightest idea how to kick start their lists, let alone keep them growing steadily month after month.

It is possible to develop and grow a list even if you have NO website. Having a website will definitely help, but don’t wait, get your list started right now and add your website later.

Why do you NEED a list? As freelancers and web entrepreneurs, we need a way to keep in contact with our existing and past customers … and we need a way to keep putting our information and name out in front of potential customers. We have to keep reminding customers that we exist and we have fabulous services to offer.

A graphic artist friend maintains a small local list. He sends out an occasional newsletter that talks about the work he has recently completed … he includes samples of the illustrations and graphics he has created for his clients. The clients he features love it because they get some exposure and free advertising! This newsletter serves to keep existing and old customer informed about the types of projects my friend does and it is a very non-pushy way of keeping his name in front of potential clients.

What my friend HASN’T done is expand his list and offer it to anyone who wishes to opt-in. He could potentially be building an international business with a very small additional effort.

How DO you build your list? There are literally DOZENS of ways! In this article I will show you how you can get started and literally add 1000+ new subscribers to your list a month.

First of all you must get your ezine or newsletter onto as many of the list announcement services and list directories as you can …

——————————– List Announcement Services ——————————–

There are dozens of newsletter and ezine announcement lists and ezine directories. The trick is finding them, making your announcement and getting on the permanent lists.

Start by developing an information file about your ezine. You don’t have to do this all at once … just start with the basics and add to it as you go. (I use ClipMate http://clipmate.proofpositive.info to make the copy/paste job faster and easier).

Here’s a list of the types of information you will be asked to provide:

>> The name of your ezine
>> A longer title (up to 100 characters) incorporating your most important keywords. Three versions of your ezine description.
>> A full description of up 250 characters, another of up to 150 characters, and one of just 100 characters. Use your most important keywords, adding more as space permits. >> A list of 10 to 15 keywords relevant to your publication. These are words and short phrases you want searchers to find your ezine under. Start with your most important keyword, and work your way down, with the least relevant word or phrase last. Separate each of the key terms with commas. >> The main URL of your Web site. >> The URL to your Ezine information/sign-up page. >> The URL to a sample issue (if you have one). >> The URL to ezine archives (if you have any). >> The e-mail address used to subscribe to your list. >> The e-mail address used to unsubscribe from your list. >> The approximate number of subscribers. >> Your full name Company/Organization name. >> A contact e-mail address that may be published online. >> A private contact e-mail address (not to be published).

Different directories will request different bits of information. Collect the information in your file as you go … so you don’t have to recreate it each time.

You may have guessed that this is a labor intensive project … so the next step is to establish a daily or weekly schedule … and then stick to it. If you did just two announcements a day you’ll definitely kickstart, or give your subscriber base a BIG boost by the end of the month.

Go to http://www.proofpositive.com/ezines/list.htm for a list of directories and announcement services.

Once you have finished with the list of directory and announcement services I have provided, keep on going. Keep looking for new services and new directories. If you persistently take a few minutes each day to promote your list, it will grow exponentially over time!!

If you are willing to spend a few dollars to save LOADS of time … keep reading.

————————————————- Automate Your Ezine or List Promotion Efforts ————————————————-

Keeping track of the lists you’ve announced to, adding new lists and developing linking and article placement campaigns takes time and can be an organizational nightmare!

If you are proficient in Access you can develop and program your own tracking list …. OR you can check out the following program that has been developed specifically to help you with your list promotion efforts.

Ezine Announce give you instant access to over 1600 resources where you can promote and market your ezine - you could easily spend 12 months wandering around the Internet trying to find this information yourself.

This software includes ALL the list announcement services and directories and hundreds of ezines that are interested in getting information about your articles.

If you are SERIOUS about promoting and growing your list … you’d be crazy to try it without this.

Check out the dozens of testimonials from some of the biggest list builders on the Internet …

… then take it for a SPIN!!

http://ezineannounce.proofpositive.info

And finally, you can build your list by tapping into a list building inferno …

——————————– Create a LIST Building Inferno! ——————————–

If you have a website, one of the fastest, easiest and NO COST ways to build a list is to join a list building co-op. This program enables you to add thousands of 100% opt-in subscribers to your list with very little effort.

List Inferno is a new tool that could well be the easiest, cheapest and fastest way to build your list yet developed. You get good quality targeted 100% opt-in leads in exchange for your participation in the co-op. All you have to do is put a simple line of code on your webpages … and you will start building your list almost immediately. I had new subscribers added to my list literally hours after joining the program. Anything that can give you free subscribers for virtually zero effort is worth a try - and this system can give you lots of those.

Bottom Line: This is probably the most effective list building system I have ever encountered. I have added MORE subscribers to my list using this method than any other fr^ee program I’ve tried … and I think I’ve tried them all!

http://inferno.proofpositive.info

Building your list is an ongoing process. It will not happen overnight. It will grow over time IF you take the steps outlined above every day and every week!

DVD Audio has a sampling rate of up to 192kHz compared to a maximum of 44.1kHz for CD. It also supports resolutions of up to 24 bits, compared to 16bits on CD.

The idea behind DVD Audio is that it alllows peoducesr to give listeners a playback experience that is much more faithful to the original master recording that has been possible previously.

DVD Audio discs have a much higher capacity than CDs. This extra space can be used to provide audio at the highest possible quality or for longer recordings, or to provide additional material, such as infromation on the artist, photos and even video, all of which can be displaye don a television screen. Alternatively, DVD Audio discs currently on the market from the likes of the Warner group of labels have the audio content in both DVD Audio format and as Dolby Digital surround so that they can be played back on regular DVD players.

DVD Audio discs are navigable in the same way as DVD Video when polayed back on a player connected to a TV set. Users can select the required track from an on-screen menu and with an internet connection, can click on links to go to websites.

These dual format discs are a good way to kick-start the market while DVD Audio players are still relativley rare. The market will also be helped by combined DVD Video and Audio players.

Sarasota, Florida–June 13, 2005–Fremont John’s music is called acoustic thunder, and for a very good reason. His new release Timeline is a powerful musical statement, featuring spine tingling melodies and lyrics that cut like a knife. With nearly 20 years of classical piano training and an equal amount of time on the trombone, John is no stranger to playing a multitude of instruments. His chosen instruments on his new release are the guitar and his incredible voice to accompany his acoustic journeys, which makes his music authoritative and convincing.

Timeline features scorchers like “Jericho’s Wall,” which kicks things off creating strong imagery of battles won and lost. This man can belt out a song, when he sings “Forgive Me” you can tell he is playing for keeps, and on “No Pity On Me,” some twangy slide guitar that is blues and country from head to toe, are one of the many atmospheres set to his poignant lyrical prose.

His reputation and performances in Florida are becoming legendary and this new recording will solidify his standing as an artist on the move with the crossover ability that will reach out on a worldwide level in the independent music community. John is becoming a regular attraction at Tampa Bay Devil Rays games; he will be performing on June 28 at 5:15 pm and July 31 at Noon. This is an indication of his growing popularity and the respect he commands for his many live performances.

Fremont John delivers the goods on Timeline and seeing him perform it live will be an unforgettable experience. The many messages he conveys to us through his music bares his heart and soul to every walk of life. His stories are set to the music and can easily become the soundtracks of our daily lives while giving us inspiration and hope of a new day.
