If you love traveling, have a heart for adventure, and enjoy seeing cities from a vantage point high above the clouds, a career as an aviation pilot may be right for you. Thanks to growth in the aviation industry, job opportunities for pilots abound. In fact, aspiring pilots can find jobs with either commercial airlines or corporations that own their own private jets. With many of the military aviators of the Vietnam War era retiring, industry observers are actually predicting a shortage of pilots in the years ahead.It was once thought that few people could succeed as pilots—but nothing could be further from the truth. Research indicates that as many as 90 percent of the public has the aptitude to learn to pilot an aircraft. In other words, becoming a pilot may be easier than you realize.Of course, you do need extensive training to become a professional pilot. To begin with, you’ll need to secure a private pilot’s certificate. This certificat
Blogging has opened website creation to almost everyone, as it takes very little know-how to get a blog up and running. In fact, many service business owners are using a blog platform as their primary website, with some of them creating static pages as you would find on a traditional website, while others are using the platform as a blog and are posting updates regularly.
There are several advantages to using blogs instead of ezines or traditional websites:
1. Search engines love blogs. The strategy that seems to be attractive to search engines today is regularly updated content. I can log-in to my blog at the beginning of a day and submit a post. Within 24 hours I'll get a notification from my Google alerts account that Google has indexed that post.
2. Content can be distributed quickly. If you instruct your visitors to subscribe to your blog via updating services like Bloglines or Feedblitz, they'll be notified within hours of any new posts on your blog.

Are you one of those people who say that they don’t judge a book by it’s cover? But are you really being honest with yourself?How do you act when you meet somebody for the first time? Do you pay attention to his/her general look? I do!Do you know that in life and more importantly in business you have only 30 seconds to make the right first impression when you meet somebody for the first time?Yes, in just 30 seconds people will subconsciously make a decision on whether they want to work with you or not. So make that first contact count.How you dress influences what people think about you?Working with small business owners for years in France and for the last four years in New York, and now specializing in networking, I have to say that I am always surprised to see how some people dress for networking events or business meetings.Those who do not dress in suitable business attire are usually the ones who are surprised that t

You hear all sorts of rules about job interview success:* people decide about you in the first 10 seconds * you have to make a good first impression * always ask insightful job interview questions * learn as much as you can about the company * they'll probably ask interview questions designed to trip you up * have some quick answers to interview questions at the readyNot bad, as far as rules go: some of them make perfect sense. But getting the job you want isn't about following rules or giving the 'right' interview answer.It's about presenting yourself in the most authentic way that takes care of you and the interviewers at the same time.So many people chuck their chances away: they don't take enough care and interview preparation time so that the whole process is enjoyable, stimulating and informative for both parties.Your First Opportunity: Getting The InterviewIf you want the job, chances ar

Limitations of Liability Thomas J. Hall, JD It’s a provision found in almost every commercial contract: “Vendor shall be liable only for direct damages, in an amount not to exceed $X. In no event will vendor be liable for indirect, special, consequential, exemplary, or punitive damages or for lost profits.” Although the actual words may vary, the meaning is the same: • The most vendor will pay is $X; • For certain claims, vendor has NO liability. Such provisions raise a number of issues: • They are unfair. Vendor’s liability is capped, but customer’s is not. In other words, vendor knows his or her own maximum liability under the contract, while customer’s liability is unlimited. • Vendor’s maximum liability - $X – may be inadequate. For example, “X” may be “no more than customer paid under this contract” or “no more than customer paid in the xyz months preceding the event giving rise to the claim for damages.” If we assume custome

Small businesses, home-based businesses and self-employed individuals have discovered toll free virtual office systems. They are finding that there are many advantages over a static toll free number from the Bells including features, flexibility and cost. Here are just a few of the advantages as well as things to look for in a toll free virtual office provider.Toll Free Virtual Office Small Business and SOHO AdvantagesToll Free Virtual Office Advantage No. 1: Look Bigger. If you want your small business to look bigger than it is, a PBX (Private Branch Exchange) with a professional main greeting and dial by name directory would help. Unfortunately, these systems cost thousands to install and even more to maintain. But you can accomplish that same professional image with a toll free virtual office for literally pennies a day. Most toll free virtual office systems come standard with multiple extensions. If you are a one-m

Are ezines and traditional websites dead? No, because people consume information differently. Some are auditory learners and prefer to hear the info (great audience for podcasting, an audio form of blogging), some prefer to receive updates as they are published (blog readers), while others like a stable, stationary medium to which they can refer when they're ready (readers who archive ezines or bookmark web pages).
How do you begin to blog? Here are 10 simple steps you can follow:
1. Blogging platform. The easiest way to get started is to use the free service found at Blogger.com or Wordpress.com. The ability to customize your blog is limited with the free services, so I urge my clients to subscribe to Typepad.com, which will host your blog for you on their servers, or purchase a hosting account where WordPress can be installed. The downloadable version of WordPress is located at Wordpress.org and is free of charge if you need to install Wordpress yourself on your hosting account. I use Typepad for my blog, so many of my examples will relate exclusively to blogs hosted on that platform.
2. Name. What do you want to call your blog? Blog names tend to be attention-getting and off-beat. However, for service businesses, I encourage my clients to use keywords important to their business when naming their blog. You will also want to acquire the .com version of your blog's name or your blog's name with the word "blog" attach as your blog URL. After you have set
