Your Business!

If you’re in business for yourself it’s time to look at new ways to grow your business. With time as hard as they are you need to find away to increase your sales. I once read a report that there are millions of businesses out there that still don’t accept credit cards, or even have custom business cards. If you where to ask me what I thought about these businesses I would say, “it’s a bad move for your business”. Businesses that don’t provide professional business cards to their employees will fail every time. Most of these businesses are mostly small family owned and really don’t think they need business cards, but their the one that need them the most. This type of thinking is what’s hurting them, they’re afraid of change. If you’re one of those owners you really should consider getting some nice business cards, it would be a great investment for you.

KC Problems!

Matt Cassel, QB for the Kansas City Chiefs went down during Saturday’s game. When he was hit you could clearly see his leg was hurt. This is not only a blow to the Chiefs, it’s a blow to the whole City of Kansas. The of Arrowhead Stadium in Kansa went completely silent. Cassel is supposed to be the next one to take the Chiefs to the super bowel. So far the Chiefs haven’t reported how bad his leg is, maybe in a few days. Week 1 starts next this week, so he better get better soon. If he can’t start the Chiefs will have to start with Tyler Thigpen. So right now it’s a wait and see for the KC fans.

Blocking Apps!

It seems that Apple Inc. has blocked the Google Voice app because it could have cut into their monthly plans. Google’s app was going to cut into what Apple and AT&T could charge for. Google feels cheated and want’s to be unblocked. Now federal regulators want to know why Google was blocked. Apple Inc. said they blocked the app, Google Voice because it alters the functions of the phone. I wondering what other apps Apple Inc. is blocking. Most apps are free, or very cheap. But if an app is going to cut into Apple’s profit chances are it will be blocked. I don’t own a iPhone, so I can careless, at this point. I have been considering on getting an iPhone so I can do my work on the run. What I would need is an online backup app, if there’s one out there. So when the day comes that I own an iPhone I’ll start to care. Hopefully the FCC will get everything fixed soon, not likely.

The Big One!

Have any of you heard about what’s going on with the Large Hadron Collider machine? You know, the machine that will one day collide two atoms at almost the speed of light. The machine that a lot of people think could cause a black hole on earth and destroy us all. The same machine that has cost a few countries just over $10 billion to build and fund the project. Oh, yes, that machine. Well know some people are calling the machine a big black hole, because of wasteful speeding. From what I read the machine so far has ran for a total of 9 days, and as yet to collided an atom. That’s because right after start up the machine had a power surge and destroyed 51 piece’s of the collider. Which by the way each piece cost over $1 million, wow. I read that it takes months to reassemble just one piece. Anyway, when they get the mounts, pieces back in place they hope to fire the machine at half power sometime in November. If everything works out a full power collide of 2 atoms could be right around the corner. And if some people are right we may all be gone in a second.
