			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a rel="attachment wp-att-790" href="http://www.mairie-gries.com/2012/01/a-short-lesson-on-real-estate/real-estate/"><img class="size-full wp-image-790 alignleft" title="Real Estate" src="http://www.mairie-gries.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/Real-Estate.jpg" alt="Real Estate" width="300" height="311" /></a>Where did the notion that men should buy houses for women come from? Some people say that this is based on our natural instinct. Like any other animal, parents want to protect their young for the continuation of the species. Anyway, asked that question because I wanted to know why business relating to real estate is suddenly making becoming popular. Before you had the buying and selling of properties. Now, with the widespread use of the Internet, we have real estate trading which is basically “I buy yours you buy mine” kind of arrangement.<br />
The term real estate is used to refer to any property, which is permanently attached to land such as buildings and houses. Most people refer to it as real property but there are situations wherein the term real estate is used for the land and the building together while real property refers to the ownership rights of the land itself. On the other hand, the word real is used to categorize these properties as things as opposed to people. Records show that the idea of real estate can be traced as far back as 1666.<br />
With the idea of personal property becoming more widespread, real estate has become a major area of business in the United States. In fact, economists claim that the reason for the recent economic slump is due to the lower revenue generated by this industry. In order for the US to get back on track, Americans need to view land and buildings as an investment.<br />
There are many types of real estate: residential, commercial or industrial property. The most common transactions involve the buying and selling of residential properties such as apartments, condominiums and a duplex. Sometimes families who want to move to a different state finds it difficult to find dwellings on their own so they usually do a map search of the area they’re moving to so as to find any houses which are either for sale or for rent. This way, they get to pick the properties they want without having to travel yet, thereby saving time, effort and money. In some cases, people contact a real estate agent who can then give them a tour of the area so that they get to see the houses and to possibly bargain for the price of the property.<br />
In US and Canada, finding property is easy because of the existence of the multiple listing system or MLS – a data base wherein real estate brokers can share information about the properties their clients are planning to sell, or in some cases, planning to buy. Most people who want to buy a house usually have no idea where to start so they call a real estate broker. When you do so, the broker searches the MLS to find details about the property. At present, there are about 800 different MLS in the US with new competitors like Google Base, Craigslist and Cribfinder entering the public domain.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a rel="attachment wp-att-786" href="http://www.mairie-gries.com/2012/01/a-retail-merchant-account/merchant-account/"><img class="size-medium wp-image-786 alignleft" title="Merchant Account" src="http://www.mairie-gries.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/Merchant-Account-300x200.jpg" alt="Merchant Account" width="300" height="200" /></a>Could a Retail Merchant Account help your business to grow its operations and expand its client base? Of course it could! That is why you need to know more about this exciting e-commerce opportunity.</p>
<p>A Retail Merchant Account is available only to company owners who have established a solid credit history and a deserving reputation. You will be in good company when you apply for and open a merchant account. Your customers will admire and appreciate your expertise, while competitors may wonder why they haven’t thought of going this route. A merchant services account can open e-commerce doors of opportunity that will advance your enterprise to the next level of sophistication. Don’t be considered an old-fashioned business owner without a sense of purpose or drive. Get your merchant account and let good things start to happen with your business.</p>
<p>A Retail Merchant Account is easy to apply for. Ask your current bank or financial institution where you keep checking or savings accounts, or other financial holdings, about the possibility of applying for a merchant services account. Chances are the underwriter will have this account available, but you may not want to apply there if the terms are not favorable to your business. Some card suppliers impose numerous fees to make the card not particularly attractive. These fees might include memberships, setup, gateway, and even an application fee. Ask before you apply to make sure you can afford this type of account with your current bank or find out where a better deal is offered.</p>
<p>A Retail Merchant Account will let you start accepting credit card payments. Credit cards are a majority of consumers’ preferred way to pay for purchases, so you ought to take advantage of this fact by providing a means of collecting and processing credit card payments at your establishment. Customers expect it and may be disappointed if you don’t offer this option in addition to cash or check. Competitors are already aware of this preference and are banking on it by providing credit card services to customers who might be shopping at your company.</p>
<p>A Retail Merchant Account provides added options of taking credit card payments beyond your store or shop checkout aisle. For example, if you operate a delivery service, you can get approved for a wireless credit card processor that can go along with you for processing payments at the point of sale. Swiping the card offers a cheaper retail rate than calling a customer’s credit card number into a home office for keying and approval. You also may want to get a pager or a processor for e-checks. You could even set up a phone dial-in system where clients can key in a credit card number and expiration date after confirming their name and order to automate orders and cut back on employee assistance, although you should have someone available on a call basis when needed for online glitches or customers’ questions.</p>
<p>Don’t wait until you’ve potentially lost thousands of dollars by neglecting to take advantage of this unique opportunity. Ask your bank or another potential underwriter about a Retail Merchant Account.</p>

But, at the same time, as they get older, they also need to learn to make money and function in our society as responsible adults.</p>
<p>Oftentimes, they get a job at a Burger Joint, where they learn how to listen to a boss, and how to work with others, but then they may also have to give up some extracurricular activities, study time and time with family. Not terrible things, but enough of a challenge that many families are helping their kids start their own businesses.</p>
<p>Why? Let’s compare the lessons your kid is learning working at a burger joint verses starting a business.</p>
<p>1. Responsibility.</p>
<p>Burger Joint: Yes, it teaches responsibility. You need to show up for work and do a good job or your boss and co-workers will get mad at you.</p>
<p>Entrepreneur: Teaches you responsibility as well. You need to work hard or you won’t get paid.</p>
<p>2. The Value of a Dollar</p>
<p>Burger Joint: You learn that time is money.</p>
<p>Entrepreneur: You learn that creativity, ownership of responsibility and hard work is money.</p>
<p>3. How to Market Yourself</p>
<p>Burger Joint: Teaches you how to fill out an application and go on an interview to market yourself. You do this once and then you’re done.</p>
<p>Entrepreneur: You have to market yourself and your business on an ongoing basis if you want to make any money.</p>
<p>4. Customer Service</p>
<p>Burger Joint: Service with a smile or your boss may reprimand you.</p>
<p>Entrepreneur: Service with a smile or you don’t get repeat business and your income drops.</p>
<p>5. Banking Skills</p>
<p>Burger Joint: You learn how to collect a paycheck and how to deposit it into the bank.</p>
<p>Entrepreneur: You learn how to budget for advertising costs, taxes, and expenses and weigh them against your profits. You learn to deposit your income into the bank and write checks to cover expenses. You learn how business works.</p>
<p>As you can see, both options have benefits. As for which option you’ll choose? That’s up to you and your child.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a rel="attachment wp-att-775" href="http://www.mairie-gries.com/2011/10/5-keys-to-unlock-the-waitlist-lock/job-applications-2/"><img class="size-full wp-image-775 alignleft" title="job applications" src="http://www.mairie-gries.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/job-applications1.jpg" alt="job applications" width="201" height="251" /></a>Being wait-listed is tough, and you need the right set of keys to open the door to your dream program. The truth is that even with these keys, it&#8217;s still not guaranteed that the lock will work. But this keychain has the critical pieces of metal you&#8217;ll need to turn that lock.<br />
First, a word of introduction: Realize that receiving a wait-list letter means you qualify for admission. You pass. You are probably on the wait-list (and not admitted) because they have already admitted applicants with your profile and want diversity in the class. Or they find your qualifications impressive, but find someone else&#8217;s even more so.<br />
Now let&#8217;s examine that keychain.<br />
Key 1: Read the letter for any hints of deficiency in your profile and attempt to improve that element in your profile.<br />
Key 2: Give them more reasons to admit you. If the school encouraged contact, inform it of new achievements, initiatives, promotions, and developments in your life. This suggestion implies developing a proactive campaign for contact roughly every 2-3 weeks. The exact particulars will vary depending on your school, specialty, and exactly when you are put on the wait list, but it can include letters, additional visit(s) to the school, an offer to interview, letters of support from others, and occasional phone calls.<br />
Letters should be 1-2 pages. For tips on the letters&#8217; content, please see &#8220;Wait-list Purgatory.&#8221;<br />
Key 3: Reinforce the idea of a fit between you and the school. Demonstrate how a visit confirmed and deepened your interest in the program. Show how recent activities reveal that your values and the school&#8217;s are a match made in heaven.<br />
Key 4: Enlist your fan club. Seek additional letters of recommendation from supervisors on and off the job and professors (if applying to an academic program). Current students and recent alumni who know you can also write letters of support and emphasize your fit with the program.<br />
Key 5: Ask if there is anything you can do to improve your candidacy. There usually isn&#8217;t, but if there is you want to know about it and do it. If you have already demonstrated improvement in that aspect of your profile, let them know how you have improved since you applied.<br />
It is much harder to wave the flag when the school doesn&#8217;t want contact. But even in these cases, you can be proactive, just more indirect. If feasible, visit the school and take a tour. If you know alumni or faculty members, ask them to put in a good word for you at the school. You can&#8217;t be responsible if your fan club thinks you belong at School X and wants to inform the admissions committee. You will have to be a little more indirect, but you still want someone to show fit and that &#8220;new and improved&#8221; you. For must-have information on the wait-list process, read &#8220;Nine Mistakes You Don&#8217;t Want to Make on an MBA Waitlist.&#8221; &#8216;Editors are available to help you evaluate your application, advise you on your wait-list strategy, and edit wait-list letters.

<p>Yet, manufacturers must still invest in new production equipment &#8212; whether to replace obsolete equipment or to take advantage of new business opportunities &#8212; in order to remain competitive.</p>
<p>Manufacturers must make careful assessments when evaluating the addition of new plate-rolling equipment. Debt capital is still available to purchase new machinery, but paying back the loan will not yield a satisfactory return on investment unless the equipment adds value to the production. Unfortunately, many buyers end up purchasing equipment that lacks the capability and flexibility to meet production volumes and tolerances, simply because they don&#8217;t understand all available options and considerations.</p>
<p>In an effort to help manufacturers optimize plate rolling operations, 5 key considerations are offered in order to choose a proper plate bending machine.</p>
<p>1. Factor in the properties of the material to be rolled</p>
<p>Even though drawings call for a plate to be rolled down to the same dimensions, a tougher material will require a much higher-rated rolling machine. In absence of such considerations, defects will result and the manufacturer will end up with excessive scrap.</p>
<p>Today&#8217;s steel is much stronger and requires more strength to bend. Thanks to detailed classifications by the American Society of Mechanical Engineers, countless varieties of steel abound: A36, A516 grade 70, Hardox 400/500 series and AR 200/300 series, for example. And these different steels require varying pressures to roll.</p>
<p>A metal&#8217;s temper and yield strength must be matched with the customer&#8217;s application to correctly determine the specifications of the plate roller. This is especially important since steel characteristics have changed drastically over the past couple of decades. What was once known as mild steel no longer exists.</p>
<p>2. Work with an equipment dealer that is willing to discuss your specific plate-rolling needs</p>
<p>Customers must know the correct questions to ask, in order to get the correct answers. Each manufacturer faces unique challenges, and through systematic querying an astute sales representative can determine exactly what equipment will work best for their process.</p>
<p>Manufacturers must also carefully consider whether they wish to roll conical or parabolic shapes to take advantage of a broader market. Hydraulically operated four-roll machines are ideal for this type of work by eliminating surface scarring, thereby decreasing the need for grinding the lamination (bullnosing) on the minor diameter edge of a cone.</p>
<p>Accurate conical rolling is further achieved through features such as torsion bar parallelism, as opposed to electronic systems or proportional value systems that merely maintain a theoretical balance. Finite parallelism allows the machine to be adjusted to its full conical tilt and back to parallel in only five seconds.</p>
<p>Customers need to discuss issues such as inside diameters, material type, tolerances and the desired shape of the finished product. As an example, some products, such as those found in the pressure vessel industry, demand a maximum of 1 percent out-of-round on their diameters or they are considered defective. By using an underpowered plate roller, too much of a barrel effect can render such a product useless and quickly erase any potential profit margin.</p>
<p>Matching plate-rolling equipment to the specific needs of a manufacturer requires attention to detail. It is imperative that the dealer you work with is willing to sit down with you and discuss the specific needs of your business. There are many issues that need to be addressed, many of which a purchasing manager may not initially foresee.</p>
<p>3. Stay within ideal operating parameters of the machine</p>
<p>It is recommended that manufactures identify what material and what thickness represent their highest volume of work. Then (a company) can deliver a machine that will camber to that specification, thus conserving valuable production hours and eliminating large amounts of scrap.</p>
<p>Quality rolling machines are usually cambered at 50 percent of the full-rated value of the machine. Hence, a 1-inch machine is cambered to roll 1/2-inch plate at a nearly perfect edge.</p>
<p>Disregarding this important fact can result in out-of-spec product that the customer will not accept. Problems most commonly arise when rollers attempt to push the upper limits of their plate roll. If 5/8-inch plate is rolled through a 1-inch-rated machine, a small degree of barrel effect will likely occur. This may or may not be an acceptable margin for error.</p>
<p>However, when plate thickness approaches the upper end of a machine&#8217;s rating, then severe defects can occur. Unless corrected with a shim, it will not be sellable. Conversely, when very thin material is rolled through a machine rated for very thick plate, the finished product may come out tighter in the center than at the ends. Again, time consuming shimming is necessitated to correct for this &#8220;hourglass&#8221; effect.</p>
<p>4. Carefully consider bending diameters</p>
<p>The tighter the diameter, the more bend pressure required. For instances where thick material must be rolled into tight inside diameters (ID), the diameter of the top roll and the layout of the machine can make the difference between a product whose cylindrical edges meet and one that won&#8217;t close.</p>
<p>As a rule of thumb, most machines can roll plate at 1 1/2 times the upper roll diameter. Hence, given a 10-inch-diameter top roll, inside diameters as tight as 15 inches can be obtained. However, new machines that incorporate planetary guides are able to keep approximately 50 percent more area of the plate under bend-pressure during the rolling operation, thereby achieving ratios of 1.1 times the upper roll diameter. This creates a 30 percent advantage on tight diameters.</p>
<p>All machines achieve precise measurements at 50 percent of the full-rated value. Therefore, given a 1.1 roll geometry, a 3/8-inch machine with a 10-inch top roller can consistently roll 3/16-inch plate to 11-inch ID without any barrel defect.</p>
<p>5. Incorporate both side and vertical supports to prevent unwanted bends</p>
<p>Adequate support requires both side and vertical roller-supports, as designed by the manufacturer of the plate-rolling machine. Once employed, plate rolling becomes a one-man job instead of two. This frees up valuable manpower that can be re-routed to other jobs.</p>
<p>When rolling a cylinder, once the inside diameter is more than 200 times greater than the thickness of the material, the weight of the material becomes sufficient to bend the cylinder as it exits the top roll and gets further away from the machine. Without proper support, unwanted radii result.</p>
<p>Purchasing a machine with both side and vertical roller supports easily solves this problem.Some manufacturers attempt to skimp on this ancillary equipment by resorting to &#8220;makeshift&#8221; support such as a forklift or overhead crane. However, this shortcut ties up the use of equipment that can best be utilized elsewhere. Because it cannot adequately support the material, unforeseen bends can still appear.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a rel="attachment wp-att-765" href="http://www.mairie-gries.com/2011/10/5-key-elements-of-a-successful-home-based-business/home-based-business-opportunities/"><img class="size-medium wp-image-765 alignleft" title="home based business opportunities" src="http://www.mairie-gries.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/home-based-business-opportunities-300x200.jpg" alt="home based business opportunities" width="300" height="200" /></a>Who wouldn&#8217;t want to work from home? You can make your own hours, forget ever having to commute, and never have to answer to a boss. Plus, as a home based business owner, you have the potential to earn exponentially more than you ever will by punching a time clock.</p>
<p>Yet, there are so many home based business opportunities available that it&#8217;s often difficult to choose the one that is a good fit for you and that has the income potential that you need. To help you make your choice, here are five key elements to look for in a home based business.</p>
<p>1. Go with Network Marketing</p>
<p>While it&#8217;s true that not everyone succeeds at network marketing, the principles behind it are sound. After all, network marketing is essentially using and selling products through word of mouth. This approach allows you to reach out to an ever-growing number of people and reap the financial rewards of building your own downline. Because network marketing cuts out the middleman, your earning potential increases. In the process, you create the potential for residual income while enjoying low overhead and the opportunity to work when and where you want. Furthermore, when you take advantage of Internet-based network marketing, you are not bound by geographic boundaries; your customers and downline can reach global proportions.</p>
<p>2. Choose a Company that Offers Multiple Products</p>
<p>Every day, you use dozens of products. Some home based business opportunities focus on one product, while others focus on many. When you do the math, it&#8217;s easy to see why it&#8217;s preferable to choose a company that allows you to become a member and have access to a wide variety of products, as well as to sell those products.</p>
<p>3. Find Cutting Edge Products to Use and Sell</p>
<p>Few people need more candles, kitchenware, or knick-knacks. What they really need and want are information and mobile technology products, such as DSL, VOIP, and broadband. Baby boomers in particular are looking for values in discount shopping, travel, and professional services such as legal services and health services. Companies and entrepreneurs are always on the lookout for cutting edge business software, conference calling, SEO services, marketing products, and video production services.</p>
<p>4. Look for a Solid Compensation Plan</p>
<p>Compensation plans vary from company to company, so be sure to find one that gives you the greatest earning potential. A single paid matrix is an excellent approach, as is a 3 x 9 monthly matrix commission.</p>
<p>5. Gain Access to Business Building Tools</p>
<p>One of the premises of network marketing is that you don&#8217;t need to reinvent the wheel; the infrastructure for a successful business model already exists. When reviewing home based business opportunities, especially those that are Internet based, find one that allows you to grow your business through duplication, so that you can immediately get up and running. The company you work with should also have a support system that includes mechanisms to capture leads, create ads, and develop solid marketing strategies. Moreover, there should be a sense of community, camaraderie, and mutual support.</p>
<p>Launching your own home based business can not only lead you to a debt free life, but can also enable you to travel the path of true financial freedom.</p>

Many moms and dads are now offering classes, selling e-books, and providing instructional websites all while staying home with the kids. It&#8217;s a great way to make money online without paying high daycare bills!</p>
<p>There are also unique home business solutions online where you can sign up with a company that provides training to students for you. You can potentially earn a huge residual income by promoting their educational services.</p>
<p>3. Join an MLM Opportunity</p>
<p>MLM has grown tremendously in recent years thanks to online technology. More and more people are making money online with MLM because it&#8217;s so much easier to communicate using online resources such as email, websites, and instant messaging.<br />
If you decide to join an MLM company, be sure the company is trustworthy. Investigate before you sign on, or find a company that will investigate for you. A good place to start is a dependable MLM directory. These companies will investigate many different home business solutions and list only those that are legitimate and that offer the most profit potential.</p>
<p>4. Niche Home Business Solutions</p>
<p>Many homemakers are earning a substantial income by offering niche products or services. For example, the mother who loves to sew baby clothing decides to sell her items through her own website or through consignment websites. Or, a father who loves to do handiwork around the house starts a &#8220;handyman&#8221; e-zine and sells related products and tools. A young college student discovers the secrets to college life and starts his or her own &#8220;college life&#8221; newsletter.</p>
<p>The possibilities are endless. Other niche home business ideas include baking, hunting, fishing, musical instruction, handmade crafts, handmade furniture, parenting, pets, weddings, gardening, and sports.</p>
<p>5. Investments</p>
<p>If you like to take your chances in the stock market, investing is easier than ever on the Internet. Many homemakers make money online by investing in Forex, the popular and lucrative currency exchange market. Some earn money with traditional stocks. If this is your passion, you can now do it from home with minimal effort.</p>
<p>Please be careful, as there are many scams with companies trying to get you to invest in fake stocks. Check out every opportunity carefully, and keep your funds safe by dealing only with reputable, well-known stock companies and brokers.</p>
<p>No matter which home business solution you choose, use online directories and the testimonies of other online business owners to help you find the opportunities that will fit your schedule and budget.</p>
