When you exploit wind power, you will offset the cost of having a wind mill set up. Take into consideration the carbon that would be reduced if every person decided to use wind power for homes and in the work place.

Memorable Wedding Favors for Children and Parents by ARIANNA JORDAN

Relationships,Communication

Wedding favors are an important part of the wedding experience. They are a way to express appreciation to all of your guests for taking the time to support you on your special day. A carefully chosen favor is also a great way to tie into your wedding theme. Because you are purchasing a gift for each of the guests at your wedding, price is also a consideration. If you are having a large wedding with many guests, this can add up quickly.
If you decide to invite children to your wedding you may want to choose a favor that will appeal to them in particular. Fortunately, there are so many choices available when choosing wedding favors that you can easily find something that appeals both to children and adults alike. What are some ideas for favors that are fun for children, yet special for adults?
Photo Memories
All children love to have their picture taken, and most relish the idea of having a special responsibility. Consider leaving plenty of disposable cameras lying around to capture candid shots. While this is not a new idea for weddings, to really include the children that you have as guests, make sure they, and their parents, know that they are welcome, and even encouraged, to use the cameras. Something about weddings brings out the stuffy adult in many people, so hand out cameras specifically to children, announce that you want a kids-eye view of the event, or come up with some other way to encourage the children at your wedding and reception to take pictures.
By providing cameras for the reception, you open the door for a touching favor many people love, which is a miniature photograph album. The miniature album, which will typically hold around 40 four by six pictures, is the perfect favor for children. They can put their own pictures in it, and you can send along copies of any cute candids that you get. Miniature photograph albums making a special wedding favor for both children and their parents.
Edible Favors
Kids love treats, and tiny treats are even better. Personalized mints or chocolate candies such as Hershey’s Kisses, loose or in a special tin, make a fun treat for parents and their children. In fact, many kids will get just as much enjoyment out of a small mint tin or basket as they will the candy that was inside. Most wrappers can be personalized with the bride and groom’s names, the date of the wedding and even the wedding’s color theme. Edible favors can also be certain mixes of cocoa or tea to be enjoyed after the event.
Bookmarks
If you are hosting a large reception, or your budget is tight, bookmarks are affordable and fun favors. Children, in particular, enjoy the idea of their own bookmark. Parents can utilize this favor as well. Using bookmarks engraved with scripture, line of poetry or even a simple, “Thank you for sharing the day with us,” will make children and their parents feel appreciated for attending this special occasion.
Tote Bags
Children universally seem to love to sort and pack. Loading up their treasures in a box or bag is one way that many children spend their time. Tote bags are a wonderful favor, especially if you are expecting many out of town families or are hosting a destination wedding. The tote itself makes an excellent favor, but adding information about the area, a coloring book and crayons and a bottle of bubbles can make this wedding favor a favorite for families with children.
Soaps and Bath Favors
Children love anything tiny, and the tiny soaps or bottles of shower gels that are available as wedding favors are a real treat for young children and parents alike. Many of the small containers or bars come in appealing packaging, such as small wooden boxes or tiny plastic bathtubs. An overall wedding theme can be extended into soap and bath favors, such as with a fall themed wedding. Bath favors are available in fall themes in the form of leaf-shaped soaps. These cute and practical favors are guaranteed to be popular with the guests at your party.
No matter what type of favors you choose, picking something that appeals to the children at your reception is sure to make you popular with both adults and youngsters. Many couples, even those who invite children to their wedding, present a no nonsense attitude about the wedding and reception. While it is understandable that you want your wedding and reception to be an enjoyable event, the majority of these celebrations are not geared toward children. Choosing favors which appeal to children is a wonderfully thoughtful way of letting both parent and child know that they are appreciated for attending.
Arianna Jordan writes about topics pertaining to weddings and other family events. Ms. Jordan offers suggestions for ways to make an event standout such as offering interesting wedding favors.

A PC in the modern home by PAUL ORAMS
Communication

Computers have become an essential part of our day-to-day life. No longer are they just a tool we use when at work. Virtually every household in the UK now owns at least one PC or laptop and many homes now have more than one. With the introduction of wireless routers and broadband a few years ago ‘PC Recovery’ have found that many people would now rather be without their television than their computer. A spokesperson for ‘PC Recovery’ said “Typical PC users these days will use their computer for a wide variety of tasks. From emailing their friends and family to booking cheap flights online. We have found many people will store all their photographs and music on their computer as well as any important documents such as a CV or letter to their bank
With the increase in home PC usage it stands to reason that more and more problems are going to arise. “It’s no longer a case of just removing a virus or upgrading someone’s RAM” said the spokesperson. “Many families now have home networks with several computers and laptops involved. As well as wireless printers and network storage devices and they want to make the most of their hardware whether it is a laptop or a desktop PC.”
As computers are able to take care of more and more tasks for us computer engineers are finding themselves doing a wider variety of tasks than in the past. Apart from the obvious things such as fixing a broadband problem or removing a virus from a computer, they now find themselves doing things such as setting up home games consoles on the internet i.e Xbox 360 or PS3, or installing a customer’s mobile phone or MP3 player. “Times are changing” said the spokesperson. “And with it our engineers are finding they have to adapt and keep abreast of new technology and new advancements.”
Without doubt the most popular advancement in recent years would be the wireless network. Throughout the United Kingdom and in particular southeast England there are hundreds upon thousands of wireless hotspots, many of which are free. “If you drive into any town center in Essex or Kent you are now able to access the internet from many available hotspots” revealed the spokesperson “Libraries, fast food restaurants, cafes and even hotels are now only too happy to offer this service free of charge in order to encourage potential customers to use their facilities” The problems arise when people access private wireless networks that have not been secured. “This can cause a great deal of problems and security issues for the owner of the private network. This can potentially be very damaging as in the wrong hands this access could lead to bank details and personal files be extorted from the owner’s computers.
So while the new age of wireless is incredibly useful and makes it much easier for us to keep in touch with each other and indeed our online pursuits we should all take care and if necessary have our home networks checked by someone professional before it is too late. “We have seen too many people fall foul of stolen identity just by leaving their home network unsecured” said the spokesperson “So it does pay to have your system and network checked by someone professional and reputable every so often, even just for your own peace of mind.”

New Hire Video Conferencing by DAVID BYRD

Business,Communication

Your first day on the job at a new company can incite a lot of emotions. You may feel worried about your performance, anxious about meeting people, or possibly you just get overwhelmed. As an employer, when you really take the time to find and hire the perfect match to a position, your work is only half done. Now you must train the new employee and integrate them into their job and your company. If you fail to do this properly, their work and your business will suffer, no matter how perfect an employee was for the job.
So how can you improve your training program? First things first, make twenty copies – or more if you often hire a lot of people – of every single piece of paper that is used in the hiring and training of a new employee. This includes the policy handbook, w-2 forms, locker check-out, whatever. Then fill up each of the twenty folders so all that needs to be done is to hand one folder to one employee. Don’t forget to put a blank label on the folder. This “welcome package” should be standard practice in any company.
Now, take some time and examine what your ideal training program would look like. How much of it could you actually accomplish? What are the constraints against the rest that you can’t do? Is it time, money, or resources? Time is usually the biggest complaint. Businesses need new employees up and running as soon as possible.
When it comes to training, video conferences can save you time, improve organization, and begin the relationship on the right step. How can a video conference do this? Imagine the following scenario at your company.
The new employee – let’s call him Bob – arrives and is greeted by a particular person, Sally, who knows the hiring and training process through and through. Sally sits Bob down and hands him a folder with his name on it. She guides him as he fills out all the necessary paperwork, then walks him through the employee handbook.
After a tour of the office, Sally sits Bob down at his new desk. When he turns on the computer, Bob sees a document on the desktop called, “Welcome Bob.” In the document is a conference call phone number, dial-in codes, and directions for a video conference. Bob calls into the conference call where he is greeted by Sally – from her own desk – and the CEO from headquarters in another state. He can also see the two of them on the video conference on his computer.
The CEO welcomes Bob, makes sure he has everything he needs, and signs off. Sally opens a PowerPoint presentation into the conference and starts a previously recorded conference call. The recording guides Bob through the PowerPoint and includes pictures of products and places. It has videos that show Bob details of what he will be doing. At certain spots in the recorded conference call, his future bosses and coworkers speak up with details. When this happens, their picture flashes up on the slideshow.
Bob -- and all the new employees that come after him – get a warm reception and detailed orientation to their new job, while everyone doesn’t have to stop working to train him. Of course they won’t have met him, but you can organize a meet-and-greet in the lounge at the end of the day.

Santa comes knocking with fantastic mobile offers during Christmas by DAY KEVI

Communication,Telecommuting

The winter season has bought with it many wonderful things. Christmas belongs to that group of 'wonderful things'. The widget makers are also singing the Christmas spirit in the form of special Christmas offers on mobile phones.
There are many wonderful aspects of the spirit of Christmas. Many have viewed it in different ways at different periods of their existence. The Children have waited for 'Pere Noel' for the wonderful gifts that they asked for. The adults have a gleam on their face as they look forward to the parties.
Many of the major brands like Samsung, Sony Ericsson and Nokia N96 have been one of the special enhancers of the joy of Christmas in the form of their mobile devices. The retailers too have played their role quite effectively. This is there to be seen in many visible ways. Christmas is a time for shopping and acquiring presents for everyone. One of the most preferred items today are mobile devices. These are gifts that are desired due to their fabulous features. Hence, many new handsets are bought out in the market as parts of Christmas offers on mobile phones.
Another notable feature of these deals is their price. This is an element which is normally low especially during this period when compared to the rest of the year. The customers are, therefore, given the additional and also pleasurable surprise of being able to acquire their most preferred mobile device at an affordable price. This certainly rises far above their expectations about the prices of mobile phone offers.
The presence of online shopping is now easily felt with many users using this medium. Shops are being less visited with the web pages witnessing an increase in the number of hits. This number is exceptionally high during Christmas with lots of users searching for items that they can give as gifts to their loved ones and to their friends. Christmas offers on mobile phones are, now featured on most of the major shopping websites.
The reduced price or an attractive handset are not the only aspects of these offers. There are many more with all of them being equally attractive. Some of them cater to the software add-ons while some feature many other lovable aspects.
Mobile offers come in many forms and with different features. Customers, however, have a preference for the ones that give away free gifts. This is a feature which has gained in its popularity, especially in the case of contract mobile phone deals. Some of the gifts like fantastic televisions and versatile notebooks are quite fabulous.
Christmas mobile offers on mobile phones, also use this concept to their advantage with the type of the gifts being more varied. The normal assortment of gifts (being given with mobile offers) during the rest of the year gets changed during this season with many new and awesome entries being present.
The additions depend on the relevance of the gifts being given. These are items which are normally quite expensive. Hence, this is perhaps the best time when these items can be given as gifts. Most of the etailers have realized this as have the companies of both the mobile phones.
Hence the gifts that are given are electronic devices being used for many purposes. The human being who lives in the recent age is one who has no time to wait for a process to complete. The need to take care of multiple responsibilities increases the reluctance to wait. Most of the gifts that are provided, help the human being in reducing the time taken for doing most of the activities.
Christmas offers on mobile phones, therefore, give gifts which serve the purpose of an individual in this context. The individual who goes for this type of a deal normally gets many wonderful features along with a mobile device. This mobile device is also some of the best with lots of features

Digital Television Is Just A Few Months Away by STEVEN LANCEY

Communication,Electronics,Entertainment

Digital TV is a means of transmitting picture and sound to your TV set. It is done by converting the pictures and sound into computerized bits of information and compressing it, then transmitting it from TV station transmitter to your TV set. The signal is then converted back into pictures and sound by your TV using a decoder. Digital TV provides sharper pictures and more channels to your regular TV. This is because the digital signal is compressed, meaning it takes up less space in the airwaves, unlike the analog system.
Where as the old analog system could only provide one channel per station, on Digital they can up to five channels of programming for each station. Nearly all PBS stations are taking advantage of this feature and offering a multi cast of educational programs along with the standard PBS network feed. The main benefit of Digital TV is the increase in picture quality; digital signals produce a much better picture and higher quality sound. Ghosting images and crackling pictures are a thing of the past, and the best bit is it's available to everyone.
In order to receive Digital TV on your television you will have to replace or adapt it (unless you have a recently purchased TV). By now all brand new TVs come with a built-in Digital tuner which means they are able to display Digital signals without the use of a separate box. If your TV doesn't have this feature then you will need to purchase and attach a converter box to your set.
Set Top boxes vary in costs ranging on average of $40 and up. The Government has launched a program where it will distribute two $40 coupons per household toward the purchase of these converter boxes. To apply call 1-(800)-DTV-2009 or go on-line at: DTVanswers.com.
The Digital Switchover is happening on February 17, 2009. Some stations are signing their analog signals off early. Now is the time to get prepared. On that day the all remaining full power analog stations across the USA will cease to transmit. If you are not converted by then and receive your local broadcast stations by an antenna, then you will be left with nothing but static.

Staying In Touch When You Are Travelling by ISLA CAMPBELL
Communication

If you have ever gone overseas for any reason, you will know the kind of emotions you go through in doing so. It’s understandable to feel a little lonely when you go away from the people you love – even if it is only for a short work trip – but you can still keep in touch if you know how to do it in the right way. It helps to be prepared though. First of all, think about the country you are going to. There may well be a significant time difference in effect that limits the amount of time you will have available to call home. But if you work out what the best time will be to call before you travel, it will save you time when you arrive. And if you have access to a computer, you will find that is by far the best way to tell people back at home how you are getting on. It is always important to consider security if you are using a computer in a public place. But if you have your own computer, you can take photos of where you are staying and attach them to emails to send home. The great thing about this is that everyone will instantly be able to see how you are getting on, and it won’t cost you anything to send these emails either. So long as everyone back home has their own computer, you can easily stay in touch and swap news and gossip! But of course there are times when all you want to do is hear the voices of your friends and family, and have a conversation in real time. This can be expensive if you call from a landline, but there are alternatives you can use. Thanks to modern technology, making a phone call via your computer by using the power of the internet is quite simple. It helps if you make sure the people you want to contact are set up to receive your call before you travel; that way you can call them as soon as you arrive if you want to. If you have an internet phone, you only need an internet connection to be able to call home. And when it is that easy to phone, you are much more likely to keep in touch on a more regular basis. Furthermore, not only will that help keep the homesickness at bay, it will also enable you to chat for as long as you like without worrying about running up a huge phone bill in the process. Isla Campbell writes for a digital marketing agency. This article has been commissioned by a client of said agency.

The Endless Buzz About Free Voice Over IP Telephony by ED ELLIOT

Communication

Voice over internet protocol or VoIP, the breakthrough technology which has changed the face of long distance phone calls is nothing short of a revolution. Cashing in on this are innovators who are brainstorming new and cost efficient VoIP service plans to rope in a profitable market. In some instances, service providers are even providing free voice over ip calls to new customers. With these affordable plans, so low that after which it practically becomes free, anyone can now communicate and make long distance calls at a fraction of the cost. What can get better than "free unlimited calls to major North American and European countries"? Or, for instance "free long distance calling"? Such plans, now becoming a common in globally are too good to be true. But are these free VoIP plans practical, economically? Over the long run, yes. It is only a matter of time before voice over IP services garner a large share of the market to reach break even.
To make the basic VoIP call, all one needs is a computer with internet connectivity, audio/video components for communication and a network account which provides the gateway to make internet calls to mobiles or landlines. On the other hand, PC to PC calls can be made without any charge. Normally, any basic VoIP service will have other features such as instant messaging, video chatting and three way teleconferencing. Voice calls and internet billing along with caller identification are other common features which one can avail of. Corporate houses can make use of Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) which is highly economical in case the company requires their employees to be constant touch. This facility makes use of the PBX system, thus cutting costs considerably. However, these features are severely restricted when it comes to Free VoIP telephony.
Online websites which offer internet telephony have systems so cleverly designed that a customer is lured into signing up for all their services. The mechanism is very simple - the Free VoIP that they offer is usually consists of a limited number of calls but of good voice clarity, thus giving trial consumers a free but value-for-money service, increasing their chances of a loyal subscriber. Lucrative offers such as free international calls are rapidly converting business houses to switch from traditional phone networks to VoIP broadband phone networks and the chief reason behind this is that the only requirement to install these services a minor increase in the total internet bandwidth. Compared to having a separate phone network, this option is cheaper and more convenient.
