			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>There are many mediums to choose from in photography.  Often a person will begin with still life photography and work their way towards portraits, wildlife, or landscapes depending upon their interests.  Still life photography teaches a person to use light and shadows to find the emotion of the object.  Here I will discuss many different aspects of still life pictures. </p>
<p>Still life expresses the photographers self while using in animate objects such as pottery, flowers, candles, leaves, and fruit.  The first step in still life photography is the lighting.  You will want the object to have light from a single direction, so that you can cast shadows as well as light on the object.  This will give it a depth of field, and dimension.  You will need to choose whether you want a soft or harsh light.  The more harsh the light the more shadow you will have.  Often in still life reflectors are used to tone the light down.  The best type of lighting for still life photography is side- lighting because you will attain more contrast between the object.  </p>
<p>With still life photography, you have color control.  You can choose the colors of the objects you use.  When choosing the colors say with leaves and fruits you will want a contrast in colors, but retain a natural look.  Harmony is the best word to use when attaining color control.  The color will attract the viewer’s eye, so if it is displeasing to you the chances are your viewers will find it just as displeasing.</p>
<p>With still life, you can choose an abstract motif.  You may choose to put two objects together that do not make sense, but create a moving picture.  You might have an interesting cut on fruit, such as a melon to reveal the inside core.  The angle of the cut and the meaning of the picture will require thought from the viewer. Some viewers see different from what another viewer might see. This happens in the art world daily. What one thinks represents art another finds unappealing. Never let these influence your dreams and stop you from becoming even better in your work as a photographer.  </p>
<p>You can also have control of variations.  You can use the same subject repeatedly with different backgrounds, arrangements, and other objects.  The key is to avoid clutter while creating contrast.  The rule of thirds of composition is a great way to utilize still life objects.  You can create a pattern based on the rule of thirds.  Setting up the arrangements and trying several shots will lead you to finding the harmony between the objects.  </p>
<p>You may think still life photography lacks the depth of other mediums; however, it can be used as a stepping-stone to greater photography.  Still life can include an arranged garden to please the eye or a natural look.  You can use natural light to offset the shadows and find the contrast.  Still life inside or outside creating the arrangements is just one way to find pictures you will wish to display or give to friends.  Remember lighting, color, and variations on arrangements will provide you will tons of subjects.  </p>
<p>Applications for still life photography can include taking photographs for magazines.  Often magazines have still life photos to show flower arrangements or decorating ideas for the home.  With the many choices in photography, still life takes a special eye for arranging objects and understanding lighting techniques.  With all of photography being art you need to pick the subjects that will speak most to you and make them speak to others. These types of pictures go well when deciding to sell your photos or display them for the public. All pictures whether you think it or not may be just what someone wants to display and may offer to buy it. This helps you start a real goldmine of a business if you feel confident with your work.  </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Although still better off overall, people living in the south of the UK have been hit the hardest by the economic downturn, says independent market analyst Datamonitor.</p>
<p>The south, and London in particular, has witnessed a severe reversal of fortune during the recession with its affluent population decreasing by nearly half a million, according to the Datamonitor report published in August.</p>
<p>And to make matters worse, latest figures from the Institute for Fiscal Studies (IFS) predict the coalition Government’s first budget will hit poorest families the hardest with the likelihood they could lose over 5 per cent of their income, implicating future debt problems .</p>
<p>“The future months are going to be difficult for specific pockets and sectors of the UK population,” warns John Fairhurst, managing director for national debt solution provider Payplan.</p>
<p>“The population in the southern half of the country, particularly families with young children, have been hit hardest by the recession and it could now be a difficult time ahead for them along with other poorer sectors of the UK.</p>
<p>“And while credit card statements still carry the excesses of the summer holidays, Christmas is fast approaching and coupled with the prospect of expensive winter fuel bills, people could find themselves facing even bigger financial worries.”</p>
<p>The advice to anyone in this predicament or with a debt problem is to get help sooner rather than later – while there’s time to resolve matters.</p>
<p>“If you’ve been made redundant, if your income has been cut, if you’re struggling to keep up with credit repayments and money issues seem to be getting out of control, seeking debt advice doesn’t mean you’ve failed,” says Mr Fairhurst. “It’s probably the best step you can take.</p>
<p>“The number of customers who say ‘we wish we’d come to you earlier’ is staggering. And while the practical assistance of helping manage their finances is key, it’s the peace of mind this then brings, which really makes a difference for them. We can’t emphasise enough how debt can drag you down and when families and children are involved, it can be so much worse.”</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Automobile Town, a online game title created by CIE Studios in Lengthy Beach, California, might be described as Facebook social video game exactly in which participants can generate or purchase things and coins they can use to obtain virtual vehicles, components, add-ons and solutions for his or her dream garage. Vehicle City enthusiastic game enthusiasts can supply pizzas, tune up automobiles, go on road trips or race every single other to accelerate their wealth accumulation.</p>
<p>Numerous combinations of play can shape Vehicle City techniques, but designers intentionally structured the factors system to ensure that the avid gamers that are getting action within the video video game most regularly are those which are rewarded with the most things and coins.<br />
As an example, adding fuzzy dice in the customers vehicle uses 2 mins and results in 20 variables, or ten things each and every moment. By contrast, an oil alter calls for 30 minutes to complete and provides gamers with 120 components, which quantities to merely four details each and every minute.</p>
<p>1 may ask why would somebody pick to complete an oil alter when the return is very much much less?</p>
<p>The response varies, but merely mainly because the window of time to gather the earnings is equal to the time that it needs to perform the task. In other words, if they don&#8217;t collect on the fuzzy dice perform inside two minutes of its completion, the purchaser leaves and also the player doesn&#8217;t get compensated.</p>
<p>If a participant suspects they are not going being in front of their pc to get a time period, they are able to carry out tasks that take longer hoping they are able to return inside the window to get paid.</p>
<p>Also, although factors could be used to purchase products from inside the video game, enthusiastic gamers can only advance through the a variety of amounts on the online game by accumulating XP, or encounter details. By climbing by means of the levels, new cars and other features are unlocked, including the ability to hire more workers. A lot more employees signifies a great deal far more careers could be finished, which signifies far more factors may possibly be earned.</p>
<p>XP can be earned from racing, delivering pizzas, setting up fuzzy dice and by performing other jobs from within the game enthusiasts garage.<br />
Some Automobile City passionate avid gamers also buy vending machines and gaming objects, just like pinball devices and air hockey tables, to earn aspects. In contrast to careers nonetheless, these issues do not necessitate participants to gather earnings within a precise time time period. If a player isn&#8217;t all around when the devices or games are prepared to invest out, they basically hold their coins until they are collected. For that reason, quite a few Car Town plans include obtaining a high quantity of these to generate elements easily without risking loss.</p>
<p>Numerous community websites have currently begun supporting the online game, providing gamers Car or truck Town suggestions, cheats and techniques to advance through the online game as rapidly as achievable. Also, several fans have created customized skins, or templates, to personalize their personal vehicles and display them off to others.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>So as a small business operator do you have a Wordpress Website?</p>
<p>How are you going to get more business?</p>
<p>There are over 1.9 million small businesses across Australia – many of these businesses are struggling to survive.</p>
<p>Small business realise it’s getting more expensive and harder to get in front of new prospects. You’re looking at better ways to find and qualify your target market</p>
<p>You’re looking at practical ways to reach new customers.</p>
<p>My clients tell me consistently</p>
<p>    “they’re aware they need to have website and get found on a Google search, they just have no idea, how to achieve this.”</p>
<p>You probably fall into this boat too.</p>
<p>It’s hard for Small Business to stand out in a crowd because the big boys are throwing bucket loads of cash on Fancy Billboards and TV advertising. They’re just making noise.</p>
<p>    “Use of the internet is high among Australians and, importantly, among consumers. Small business owners are missing valuable opportunities to use the web to promote their business and build their customer base,” Tim Reed, CEO of MYOB.</p>
<p>Businesses are looking for solutions to dwindling profits and sales.</p>
<p>If you don’t have a website, then take a look at these stats</p>
<p>    * As of 27 Jan 2010 the population of Australia reach 22,130,470 , according to Australian Bureau of Statistics Website http://www.abs.gov.au<br />
    * In 2007 there was 1 Small business for every 10 people in Australia, approximately 1.93 million active small businesses (1,927,590) in Australia, representing 96 per cent of all businesses (2,011,770)</p>
<p>ABS Counts of Australian Businesses, Including Entries and Exits, June 2003 to June 2007 – 8165.0, Table 13 p 18.</p>
<p>Do you have Website?<br />
    Do you have Website?</p>
<p>Australian use the internet so Small business needs to have a website</p>
<p>    * At the end of June 2009, there were 8.4 million active internet subscribers in Australia.<br />
    * Digital subscriber line (DSL) accounted for 57% (4.2 million) of these connections, which decreased from 63% since December 2008 when DSL represented 63% of non dial-up access connections.<br />
    * This is mainly due to an increase of Mobile wireless subscribers from 20% of all non dial-up connections (1.3 million) in December 2008 to 27% (2 million) in June 2009. That’s an increase of 51% over the six-month period.</p>
<p>ABS8153.0 &#8211; Internet Activity, Australia, Jun 2009</p>
<p>Small business and using the Internet</p>
<p>    * 97% of SME’s owned a computer of some description compared with medium Business this sits at 98% Small Business  owners have  embrace the concept of being portable with 63 %of SMEs now owning a notebook computer &#8211; Sensis® e-Business Report –The Online Experience of Small and Medium Enterprises 2009<br />
    * 95% small and medium businesses are connected to the internet, an increase of 1% from last year. 96% of SME have broadband internet connection<br />
    * 97%  of SME use  the internet , to communicate with clients, customers and suppliers, with 92% used to look for information on products and services and then 91% using for research</p>
<p>Results from the MYOB Australian Small Business Survey, 31 Mar 2009,</p>
<p>    “Use of the internet is high among Australians and, importantly, among consumers. Small business owners are missing valuable opportunities to use the web to promote their business and build their customer base,”  Tim Reed, CEO of MYOB.</p>
<p>    “The web is a critical information and communication platform, an important tool for small businesses, particularly now with the current economic turbulence,” continues Mr Reed.</p>
<p>Survey Indicator Report &#8211; March 2009 http://myob.com</p>
<p>    * The MYOB survey found only 39% of small business had a website and of these only 30% were able to sell online (online shopping or e-Commerce facility)<br />
    * Only 44% of Small business had registered a Domain Name, as of March 2009, with 52% don’t even have  domain name registered<br />
    * As of 30 June 2008 36% of Australian businesses have a web presence, this includes businesses with a website, home page or presence on another entity&#8217;s website http://www.abs.gov.au/ausstats/abs@.nsf/ProductDocumentColle..<br />
    * The bigger the company the higher the chance of having a web presence – a company with over 200 employers 96% likelihood of having a web presence compared  only 27% for businesses employing 0-4 persons  [1] Sensis® e-Business Report –The Online Experience of Small and Medium Enterprises 2009<br />
    * Businesses employing 0-4 persons comprise just under two thirds of the population and have a relatively low incidence of web presence.</p>
<p>These statistics show why businesses who don’t invest in a web presence will be left behind</p>
<p>If these figures help you to see the opportunities of having a web a presence, then it’s time to take action.</p>
<p>What are your Website options</p>
<p>   1. You could build a website yourself (Do you have the time  or knowledge to learn html and how upload files to the a server, probably not or you would have a site)<br />
   2. If you have a geek as a friend, then they could build you a site, They usually have lots of fancy code,(but are not very practical for marketing purposes)<br />
   3. Get a web designer to build you a site. You need to know your purpose and what your trying to achieve ( the trouble with these sites, is every time you need to update them, you need to have the skills to update them or pay the web designer, this is why most Websites have stale content)<br />
   4. Use a CMS Content Management System, like WordPress, or Joomla which take a bit effort to set up, but it’s as easy to update your content, all you do is create a document in Word, then cut and paste and click publish. Google loves CMS because they have fresh content.</p>
<p>Most small businesses don’t have the skills to build a website and those that do struggle to have their website show up in the Google search.</p>
<p>Building a website the easy part, the trick is getting the website found on a Google Search.</p>
<p>If you ask most business. “Are they happy with the amount of traffic their website generates?” and “Do they know how this traffic converts?” Most business owners want more traffic and have no clue if it produces any extra business</p>
<p>If you looking to get a web presence and not sure how to go about, then Cashflow Copywriting &amp; Marketing would be happy to guide you through the process.</p>

<p>This event is an arena to discuss the latest developments surrounding this topic with the crème de le crème of the industry with the opportunity to debate the potential new avenues of development in the usability of radio. </p>
<p>Dr Soraya Jones, CEO of Cambridge Wireless says:</p>
<p>“This forum will open up the debate on the future business opportunities surrounding this field, tackling the core issues and providing a clear path for future commercial development.” </p>
<p>Confirmed speakers include; Dr Andy Ward, Chief Technology Officer, Ubisense Ltd, Stirling Essex, Director of Business Development from CRFS, Dr Lorenzo Tripodi, Philips Research, Dr Steve Methley, Quotient Associates Ltd, Dirk Trossen, University of Cambridge and Eiman Kanjo of Cambridge Mobile Sensing.
