Developing a Garage Addition Building Plan and Estimating Garage Addition Costs

2007-09-27T00:24:00.000-07:00

The decision to add on a garage addition to a home is one of the best home improvement projects a homeowner can make. A garage addition provides great utility and can significantly increase the value of a home. Prior to actually breaking ground, however, a garage addition plan and garage addition costs estimates should be developed.

A garage addition plan starts with making initial sketches of the garage addition concept and evaluating how it will tie in with the existing home structure. Though most homeowners prefer a large garage, it is very important during this phase to consider proportions between the existing home and the new garage addition. To aesthetically look appealing from the road the garage addition length should not exceed two-thirds the length of the existing home. Otherwise the garage addition could overwhelm the existing home structure. The depth or width of the garage addition is less critical from an aesthetic standpoint, as it is usually less visible from the road.

Once the initial sketches have been completed, detailed garage addition building plans should be generated. Depending on the complexity of the garage addition either the homeowner or an architect can develop the actual garage addition building plans. In either case, the plans will need to include scaled drawings with dimensions, and cross-sectional construction views with constructional materials specified. The cross-sectional views should include from the concrete footings all the way to the peak of the roof. Each new transition from the footings up should be carefully drawn. Examples include: the footing/foundation transition, the foundation/sill plate transition, and the wall/roof rafter transition. The plans should also include a comprehensive bill of materials for the project. In addition, all property lines and appropriate setbacks should be clearly shown in the drawings.

Estimating the garage addition costs depends on who is building the addition. If the homeowner plans on acting as his or her own general contractor and performing some of the work (e.g. the framing) then costs will need to be calculated starting with the bill of materials generated during the planning phase. With a comprehensive bill of materials a homeowner can provide much of the list to any home improvement store where they can fill out the pricing information for the specific items for the project. For specialty items such as garage doors, garage door openers, and in some cases lighting and plumbing fixtures (if required for the garage addition) the homeowner may need to contact specialty stores for pricing. The subcontractors may also be able to provide some unit pricing (e.g. garage doors).

If the homeowner is acting as his or her own general contractor and will require subcontractors, then it is important that they identify early the subcontractors and review with them the plans and development schedule. Each subcontractor should provide a firm fixed estimate for the particular job based on the plans and bill of materials. In addition their bid should also include start/complete dates for the particular job.

With garage addition plans and costs estimates in place the homeowner can then proceed with pulling permits and developing a fairly accurate building schedule.

Once permits have been approved, construction of the garage addition can begin. It is important to note, however, that even with the best plans in place things happen and schedules slip. To mitigate schedule slips a homeowner acting as his or her own general contractor should factor in some buffer to the schedule and always be looking ahead several weeks during the entire project. They should regularly check with suppliers to ensure building material will arrive when required and should occasionally check with subcontractors to ensure that their schedules are still in line with your garage addition project.

With these simple planning, budgeting and scheduling issues addressed prior to the start of the project, building a garage addition can be a positive experience both pre and post construction phase.

For more information on building a garage addition see the Garage Addition Bid Sheet from HomeAdditionPlus.com. The Garage Addition Bid Sheet includes an extensive questionnaire (Request for Quote) that a homeowner can provide to prospective general contractors and subcontractors for bidding the garage addition. In addition, the Garage Addition Bid sheet also includes estimated costs and time intervals for constructing a garage addition as well as a list of key home material manufacturers. Finally, the Garage Addition Bid Sheet includes an extensive set of helpful tips and advice on making sure the garage addition is built properly and on time and budget.

His projects have included: building a vacation home, building additions and garages on to existing homes, and finishing unfinished homes.

What is a Toll Free Routing Migration?

2007-09-25T20:40:00.000-07:00

Before we can answer the question of what is a Toll Free Routing Migration, we need to briefly understand the function of SMS/800.

The 800 Service Management System (SMS/800) is a US based Operations Support System (OSS) that performs toll-free (800, 877, 888 and 866) number management.

The primary function of SMS/800 is twofold:

to act as the source of Toll-Free number availability and reservation status information.

to select the carrier on which a toll free number routes.

Service providers (e.g. Qwest, Global Crossing) that assign toll-free numbers for use within the US and Canada use the SMS/800 to establish routing records for customers, and download records to local exchange carrier Service Control Points (SCPs) to facilitate call processing.

Service providers generally prefer that their toll free numbers route on their own networks. Some service providers do not have a network presence in all places where Toll Free calls can originate (e.g. Puerto Rico, Alaska, Guam, Fisher Island NY). As carriers establish a network presence in new areas, they need to change their SMS/800 records to take advantage of their new network facilities.

Recently (in May 2007) Qwest established a network presence in Alaska LATA 832. Qwest asked their complimentary carriers to move their Alaska LATA 832 traffic from the MCI-0222 Carrier Identification Code (CIC) to their LGT-0432 CIC. All new 8XX's and existing toll free numbers must be rebuilt in SMS/800 to accomodate the new routing configuration.

Managing Toll Free Routing Migrations is a "cost of doing business" for RespOrgs and Telecom Providers and Resellers. These Toll Free Service Migrations cause thousands of records to be updated in SMS/800 and the corresponding SCP's and can be a resource drain for their provisioning departments.

About the Author: Matthew J. Noreen PMP works for csf Corporation. csf's flagship software, 8MS is the powerful and easy to use alternative to SMS/800.

If you are facing a large Toll Free Migration (such at the Qwest Toll Free Routing Migration of of May 2007) we can help!

8MS allows you to Reserve, Activate or Re-Route hundreds or thousands of toll free numbers with our powerful on-line mass change commands. Rather than force your toll free provisioning users to redundantly key in similar data (over and over again) with the possibility for error and lost revenue, 8MS uses modern computing techniques to speed up your provisioning and get your word done in less time.

Imagine spending less time keying in changes, and more time solving your critical business problems! For more information see http://www.8msweb.com

Keiko Matsui Wildflower Jazz music CD Review

2007-09-24T18:27:00.000-07:00

The extremely talented Jazz artist Keiko Matsui has released her most recent CD on the Narada recording label, entitled Wildflower.

Refreshingly, this was one of those CDs I was able to just pop in and comfortably listen to from beginning to end. Every track is enjoyable and was pretty easy for me to listen to from start to finish.

Wildflower has a pleasantly varied, mix of 11 tracks that are very well written songs by this clearly outstanding artist. Most of the songs display a lot of the kind emotion that makes for a really great listen. Seemingly drawing from what I can only imagine are her own real life experiences. At different points touching on the most real emotions like love, and the pain of failed relationships can certainly be heard.

I'm of the opinion that Wildflower is certainly Keiko Matsui's best work in a few years. A totally enjoyable CD and an outstanding release. What I call must have music. I give it two thumbs up because it's a collection that even the casual Jazz fan can appreciate and enjoy.

While the entire album is really very good some of my favorites are track 2 - Facing Up, track 4 - Brand New Wind, and track 8 - Temple Of Life

My SmoothLee Bonus Pick, and the one that got Sore [...as in "Stuck On REpeat"] is track 10 - Stone Circle. Wow!

data recovery Made Simple

2007-09-23T18:02:00.000-07:00

Most of you must already know that the data you save on your computer is being practically stored on media like magnetic disks, hard disks, RAID configurations of hard disks. Data can also ve stored on , floppy disks, tapes, CDs, DVDs and other types of media.

Generally speaking, data recovery is the process of restoring the data that has previously been stored on such media types, but, due to some sorry events, has become inaccessible or corrupt. There are many ways to destroy the data stored on hard disks or any other media type. Just think of the terrible damage that virus attacks can cause! Not to speak about accidents like floods or fires! Fortunately, there is hope! Mankind has developed several techniques in order to recover the missing or damaged data. The data can be recovered by means of hardware or software techniques, either by a simple user or, in the more serious cases, by a data recovery specialist.

The main helper in the matter of data recovery is the fact that a deleted file is not actually deleted from the storage media. You can only delete the entry in the index pointing to the actual location of the file that has been erased. Not many people are aware that the file itself is left intact! The only thing you must worry about is that any other activity one performs on that particular computer could endanger the data, as it can easily overwrite the location where the file was stored. This is the main reason why it is highly advisable to have a data recovery specialist attempt to solve such a problem, and not the inexperienced user.

Therefore, prevention is the key to all of your problems! Why get in trouble when you can avoid it! It is advisable to build up a disaster recovery plan and to always have backups done. Of course, these backups should be stored in another location than the main data.

Another useful tip would be immediately stopping whenever you believe that you have experienced any loss of data. Any software that you install or run on the computer can cause this problem, so make sure to report all your previous actions to the data recovery specialist. That is if you follow my advice and never try to recover the damaged data yourself! Otherwise no one will ever be able to save you!

Shyness Tips That Work Like Magic

2007-09-23T17:58:00.000-07:00

Even one great shyness tip can help you to overcome your shyness. In this article we will cover several practical ways to beat shyness.

Having interesting conversation topics on hand all the time is one of the greatest ways in overcoming your fear of conversing with other people. Never forget to use them wherever you may go. Conversations may go or turn out badly because of two reasons. The first reason is that you may not have anything to talk about. Second, you may not be prepared.

People who are great with conversations rarely leave home without having anything to say with people that they will meet. For example, in a party, try to listen to some conversations and join them if you are interested in the topic, or you know something about the topic. In the last hour of your work day, try to have a small talk with your colleagues and participate in a conversation about good weekend plans or what you have done in the past weekend.

In some case, this might be a difficulty for some people who are pressed for time. But if you try to make this a habit, preparation will eventually come automatically. It will get easier and easier every time you try to prepare for a new one. You might even run out of conversations you wanted to open up, but in the future you will probably have already established a good conversation already with some people you interacted with.

Letting people know that you are shy might seem a great way of avoiding talking about a controversial subject. Some might say that this is not a good idea because some people might start labeling you as The Shy One.

A problem would only arise two ways: the obvious way and the not so obvious way. The obvious way includes blushing, trembling, twitching or physically manifesting your shyness. The not so obvious way however includes the avoidance of eye contact with other people, not having much to say or usually declining an offer from others who would like you to accept, when you are far outside of your comfort zone and feeling very uncomfortable.

Rewarding your effort and not the outcome is very crucial in conquering your shyness. We can not control anything else in our lives, but ourselves. We cannot control anybody else, meaning we certainly can not control the outcome of any conversation or the reaction of people in anything that we do.

For instance, you try to smile to a person or a colleague, and your colleague smiled back - that is good. But if you try to smile, but your colleague does not even nod back, you might take it as a failure. That should not be the case. Try to look at it this way - you at least made an effort to interact with the person.

Making things happen for some people may be tough sometimes. Shy people are usually preoccupied with worrying about their shyness. It has always been difficult for them not to think about what people might think about how you look, what you say, and whether these people like you or not. But what can you do for these people? That is what socializing is all about - trying to make an effort for other people and not just yourself.

Picking a social skill and practicing it is another tip for building your social skill. Saying hi to someone everyday will result in you saying more than hi after a week or two. Practicing on one skill at a time will lead you to a better outcome. Practicing will help you build more self confidence that may help conduct better conversations.

One last shyness tip: take classes or join interest groups. Joining a group that has the same interests is a great way of investing in your social life. Meeting people with the same interest will give you more opportunities for longer and happier conversations later on.

The Bench Makes The Woodworker

2007-09-22T16:07:00.000-07:00

The woodworking bench is perhaps the most important tool a fine woodworker can have. As an essential fixture in any workshop it is very important to choose a quality bench. Woodworking benches come in two basic forms, portable and permanent. Both types have several option available for them and should help you insure safety and accuracy in your work. A well set up workbench will also help you to work faster and longer.

Buying vs building
Besides cost, your main considerations are job use, height, and comfort when deciding if your should build your own woodworking bench or if you should buy one.

If you do work in more then one location or are regularly changing locations (like a contractor would) then you are most likely going to want to purchase a portable workbench. The reason for this is because it is very difficult to build a lightweight and collapsible workbench yourself; and when you often set up and tack down your equipment then having a light bench makes a lot of difference.

If you are going to work in a dedicate location then building a custom workbench is an option. Your first consideration is height. Height is important for two reasons. First and most important is you must make sure that the bench can be set at a comfortable level for your height. Make sure as you are working you will not have to slouch your back or bend your elbows more then 90 degrees. Second, your workbench also can act as a support for your stock as you work on other tools. Having the table top of your bench set to the same height as your table saw is essential for working on big pieces of wood and you do not have somebody else to assist you.

Custom building your own bench is easy when your do not need it to change height. But, if you need to work at several height then purchasing a workbench is a good idea. If you buy a bench, try our a few and check them for comfort. Also check to see if it has adjustable height.

Accessories & safety
Although a large, flat work surface at the right height makes a wonderful workbench, there are several accessories you should consider.

Drawers: As an obvious option to your bench, drawers help you keep tools and hardware close at hand.
Vice: Comes in three popular forms, front vice screw, tail/end vice screw, and quick action vice (metal work)
Dog holes and Bench dogs: assist with clamping and serve as stops

Your final woodworking bench will be well suited for your needs and if you choose your accessories properly you find you are able to work faster and safer.

The Bonsai Braided money Plant Tree

2007-09-21T14:08:00.000-07:00

Bonsai trees can be a great hobby and a wonderful way to add interest to your garden or inside your home. They take a minimal of care and the ability to train and prune them can be a great creative outlet. Not all bonsai trees are the same and there are many different types of trees that can be interesting to grow. A favorite for bonsai enthusiasts is the braided money plant tree as it is easy to grow and makes a great indoor plant.

The braided bonsai money plant tree, also known as Pachira aquatica, is a miniature tree characterized by multiple intertwining trunks. Each tree is actually four to five separate trees with their trunks braided together. Its size varies anywhere from 10-18 inches tall. (Full-grown money plant trees can reach 7 feet tall.) The tree is topped with large, bright green leaves that form a tuft at the tip of each stem.

The braided bonsai money plant tree is usually given as a gift, as it is reputed to bring good luck. Generally, the more leaves the money tree has, the better! While it is common to find money trees with five to six leaves on each stem, it is quite rare to find one with seven leaves. Like a four-leaf clover, a money plant tree with a seven-leaf stem is considered to bring incredibly good fortune.

The braided bonsai money plant tree is also a mainstay in feng shui. Feng shui practitioners believe that the braided bonsai creates positive energy for any room that it placed in. According to this belief, you should place your money tree in the financial part of your home or office. Each new leaf of the tree will then bring added financial blessing and success.

The Pachira aquatica is an easy bonsai to grow; it is ideal for indoor cultivation. Unlike other bonsai, it is quite hardy. It can thrive for many years with minimal care. It is tolerant of both low light conditions and dryness. All you will need is a little bit of soil to hold the roots. Other than that, brief exposure to sunlight and weekly watering will be enough to make the plant thrive.

The amount of water you give your plant is critical and one common mistake that many beginning plant owners make is over watering. This can actually kill your plant! You want to be sure to water so that the soil is moist but you dont want to put so much in so that there is standing water in the planter.

If you are a bonsai beginner, the braided bonsai can be ideal for you! (And the added luck couldnt hurt.) Even if the braided bonsai money plant tree you acquire seems to have damaged leaves, dont worry. Those leaves will drop off and beautiful leaves will sprout up in their place. Enjoy both your tree and your newfound luck!

Choosing From The Many Calling Cards On The Market

2007-09-21T14:05:00.000-07:00

Calling cards make life simple for many people today. In the past, people were limited to using pay phones to make long distance phone calls, or to making collect calls from their own home phone. Calling cards allow users to put a certain amount of money on a card that enables them to make long distance phone calls whenever they choose.

Calling cards resemble credit cards and may be used to either prepay for your service or you can pay as you go. With a standard calling card, you can use the card and the charges for your phone calls will appear on your monthly bill. Many people find that this is a great way to make phone calls when away from home.

When choosing a calling card you will need to assess your individual needs before determining which type of card is best for you. Also, consider how much each call will cost when using a standard calling card as opposed to using a prepaid service.

You may also choose to purchase calling cards that use a Pin or a Pin Free service. With a pin free service you never need to remember a number to use your card. When using a pin free service, you will register the phone number that you will make calls from. As long as your calls are from the registered phone number, you wont need to enter a pin. This offers great advantages to those who dont like to remember pin numbers.

Many calling cards also offer online services. These offer wonderful benefits for those who would like to access their account information online or verify their call history. If this is a concern of yours, consider choosing a calling card that offers an online call history feature. Another feature that you can use with many calling cars is the ability to use speed dial. By accessing your account online, you can store several numbers in your account. Then, when you need to make a phone call with your calling card, simply enter in your speed dial number and your call will be connected. There are many options to choose from when considering calling cards. Make sure that you choose a card that best fits your needs.

2007-09-13T15:50:00.000-07:00

The readability under direct sunlight remains safe, while one can also change the display theme and backlight time, to suit the mood and occasion.Talking of imaging experience, the Nokia N73 is enabled with a decent camera. There are dedicated buttons like the camera capture keys and zoom keys on the handset, while the advantage of auto focus and mechanical shutter, adds more fun.

Enjoying Benidorm Accommodation

2007-09-11T17:45:00.000-07:00

While many times when you book a trip you merely have to choose which hotel you wish to stay in, there are various Benidorm accommodation options available. When you first consider where you are going to stay on this visit to Spain it is important to do your homework. In many cases you can simply get on the internet to see the property rental and hotel options that are being offered in the Alicante Region.

The first thing to consider is that this is a popular area, so you need to do your research and book your reservation as soon as you can. This is especially true if you are planning your trip in a traditionally busy time of the year, such as the summer. It is advised if you are going to travel in the busy summer months that you make your reservation at least six months before your trip.

Hotels

There are a wide variety of hotel options in Benidorm. There are over 170 hotel properties you can pick from when planning your stay. There are hotels to fit every lifestyle and price range from simple and low cost properties to very lush and luxurious, five-star hotels.

If there are certain amenities you will want in your hotel such as a built in restaurant, pool, or proximity to attractions, take this into account when you are looking for your place to stay. It is important to note that the larger hotels that will have these amenities will also be the ones that are a bit more expensive. But the extra expense may be worth it if you have children who are going to be bugging you to go to a pool or for other child-friendly activities.

Apartments

If you are considering an extended vacation in Benidorm, you may want to steer away from hotels and consider an apartment instead. This can be especially nice if you have the family with you. By renting an apartment you essentially can create your home away from home for this extended vacation and have all the comforts of home, including being able to prepare meals together. When looking for a property to rent there are a few options, you can search the internet, contact a Benidorm real estate agent, or contact your real estate agent. One of your best options is to check with an agent who is actually based in the city. They will have more information on what rentals are currently available and will be knowledgeable about what is nearby.

One way to save money while booking a rental property in Benidorm is if you can contact the property owner directly. This will save you the cost of the commission to an agent for booking the property. While it may take a little more searching, many property owners advertise their property for rent in travel magazines or on the internet.

Once again, take the busy seasons and locations into account when booking. If you want a place to stay in the busy summer months, or if you want a great location overlooking a beach, you will want to book at least six months in advance.

How to Buy Logo golf balls For Your Company

2007-09-10T18:02:00.000-07:00

When you order logo golf balls for your company, make sure they are printed at the manufacturer. Titleist balls should be printed by Titleist, Wilson balls should be printed by Wilson, etc... This means that the clear coat normally applied to balls are sprayed over your logo, resulting in a longer lasting logo. Be aware of the company that prints the balls at their "warehouse"... it may be some kid with a $500 printer in his garage! The printing facilities used by the manufacturers cost over $1,000,000 so you can be assured that your balls will look great.

Make sure you can choose from a wide variety of top name brands for your company logo golf balls. Look for Titleist, Wilson, Nike, Maxfli, Callaway, etc... These balls will be valued by your customers and clients. These manufacturers use the latest technology to ensure accurate, durable logo golf ball printing.

When you order custom logo golf balls the company you deal with should include free shipping, and with no set-up fees. In these days of digital printing, there are no "set-up fees" anymore.

If you need Creative Services, make sure the company you deal with can provide it. If you don't have a logo, or need to modify your own, make sure the company you deal with provides graphic services to meet your needs -- free of charge.

The Logo Imprint Area... The logo imprint area is a 7/8" circle, so make sure your logo makes the most of it. Your logo should look great, so utilize as much as the imprint area as possible. Round logos work the best, square is good. Short, wide logos should be avoided.

Mark Talkington established bestbuygolfballs.com to provide the logo golf ball customer an easy, convenient and secure site to buy logo golf balls and other products on the internet at the lowest prices possible... with THE BEST CUSTOMER SERVICE ANYWHERE!

Alpine Living Air Classic - Taking A Closer Look

2007-09-10T13:07:00.000-07:00

For more than a decade, Americans have been becoming increasingly aware that the air that they breathe in their homes is generally not of good quality. Between cooking and pet odors, mold, mildew, the widespread use of plastic materials, and carcinogenic cleaning products, many feel that their inside air has been compromised. What do consumers do? Purchase an air purifier. In 1998 I was given the gift of an Alpine Living Air Classic machine. It has been touted as an ideal solution for problem air. Lets see if the product lives up to its billing.

As far as air purifiers go, the Alpine Living Air Classic [now sold by EcoQuest International] is neither cheap nor does it look cheap. Weighing 19 pounds, the Classic is housed in a wooden cabinet available to consumers in four colors: dark walnut, light oak, putty, and black. It is a solid unit with a thick six foot electrical cord. Claiming coverage of up to 3,000 square feet most homes could operate with just one unit although a second one might be needed if your house is large, indoor air pollution is high, or you have high humidity. Prices currently start at $549 so it is no cheap investment.

How does it work? The unit produces ozone which coupled with an active fan it reproduces and spreads the clean, fresh scent of a thunderstorm throughout your home. Okay, I am parroting some of the marketing material...I had to because it isnt that easy to describe.

So, does it work? As far as producing the thunderstorm scent it certainly does. As far as getting rid of pollutants, odors, and the like I cannot tell you for sure that it does. Indeed there has been plenty of controversy and government rulings against the reported claims of air purifiers over the years by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency {EPA}, Consumers Union [they produce Consumers Report magazine], and the American Lung Association.

The EPA has this to say, whether in its pure form or mixed with other chemicals, ozone can be harmful to health. When inhaled, ozone can damage the lungs. Relatively low amounts of ozone can cause chest pain, coughing, shortness of breath and, throat irritation. It may also worsen chronic respiratory diseases such as asthma as well as compromise the ability of the body to fight respiratory infections." They go on to say, some studies show that ozone concentrations produced by ozone generators can exceed health standards even when one follows manufacturers instructions. Many factors affect ozone concentrations including the amount of ozone produced by the machine(s), the size of the indoor space, the amount of material in the room with which ozone reacts, the outdoor ozone concentration, and the amount of ventilation. These factors make it difficult to control the ozone concentration in all circumstances."

In conclusion, the EPA states: Available scientific evidence shows that, at concentrations that do not exceed public health standards, ozone is generally ineffective in controlling indoor air pollution. The concentration of ozone would have to greatly exceed health standards to be effective in removing most indoor air contaminants. In the process of reacting with chemicals indoors, ozone can produce other chemicals that themselves can be irritating and corrosive.

As you can imagine, I no longer use my Alpine Living Air Classic. It sits in my office, unplugged, and working well in its new role as a coffee cup holder while I work on my computer. Frankly, the claims made against this unit made by the federal government and others are certainly frightening.

So, how do I achieve clean air today? Again, by visiting the EPAs site I have learned that there are 3 common approaches to reducing indoor air pollution:

Source Control: Eliminate or control the sources of pollution;

Ventilation: Dilute and exhaust pollutants through outdoor air ventilation, and

Air Cleaning: Remove pollutants through proven air cleaning methods.

Of the three, the first approach -- source control -- is the most effective. This involves minimizing the use of products and materials that cause indoor pollution, employing good hygiene practices to minimize biological contaminants (including the control of humidity and moisture, and occasional cleaning and disinfection of wet or moist surfaces), and using good housekeeping practices to control particles.

The second approach -- outdoor air ventilation -- is also effective and commonly employed. Ventilation methods include installing an exhaust fan close to the source of contaminants, increasing outdoor air flows in mechanical ventilation systems, and opening windows, especially when pollutant sources are in use.

The third approach -- air cleaning -- is not generally regarded as sufficient in itself, but is sometimes used to supplement source control and ventilation. Air filters, electronic particle air cleaners and ionizers are often used to remove airborne particles, and gas adsorbing material is sometimes used to remove gaseous contaminants when source control and ventilation are inadequate.

If you are intent on purchasing any air purifier, I recommend that you first do plenty of independent research apart from what the marketers tell you. By following the 3 methods stressed by the EPA you should be able to achieve acceptable indoor cleanliness without resorting to purchasing expensive even dangerous air sanitization equipment.

Own It

2007-09-09T18:58:00.001-07:00

As a child growing up in the 1950s, my earliest influences were the Three Stooges, Abbott and Costello and Laurel and Hardy. I also loved the comedy team of Bing Crosby and Bob Hope. They starred in a series of outrageous comedies: The Road to Zanzibar, The Road to Morocco, etc. I identified with Bob Hope because he was silly, made goofy faces and had amazing timing. I grew up wanting to be the next Bob Hope.

I was always a pretty funny kid. But unlike many children who choose to grow up and act like little adults, I chose to keep my zany and crazy personality. In fact, my comedy timing got better as the years went on. Is it any wonder that I evolved into the class clown in school? Or that I was elected the wittiest kid in my senior high school class?

As an actor, I was a natural. It really didnt matter whether I was playing the nerd, the sidekick or the clown. I owned the role and I owned the stage. I remember a review I received for my role in Alls Well That Ends Well by William Shakespeare. The reviewer stated that, Mr. Stevenson took a peripheral role and turned it into the performance of the evening. And I had, because when it came to acting, I was absolutely fearless.

Many years later, after I left acting and Hollywood behind and I started giving speeches, I found myself experiencing something that I hadnt felt in a long time fear. Every time I got up to give a speech, everything Id learned as an actor and performer disappeared. It was replaced by insecurity, self-doubt and tentativeness.

At first I didnt get it. Having experienced total confidence and absolute fearlessness in acting, it was strange for me to be so nervous in this new context. Then one day it hit me; there was no play, no script, no character to hide behind. As a speaker it was just me: my words, my thoughts, my opinions. There was no place to hide.

Flashback to 1968: I remember sitting at the lunch table in my senior year of high school. There were six of us who always sat together. And more often than not, Id get on a roll and have everyone laughing hysterically with my witty comments and zingers. Even as I was doing it, I knew I had a special talent. Then the bell would ring and wed all rush off to class.

I can still see myself walking away from my friends towards class thinking to myself, That was amazing. I was so funny. I wish I knew how to capture that and do it whenever I wanted to - like Johnny Carson does.

Back then I had no ownership of my talent. It was raw and random and uncontrollable. As a speaker in the early days, I had no ownership of my role as a speaker. I was renting presentation styles and content elements from other people.

But, there was something different that happened when I told a story! The context of telling a story rekindled my acting and my comedy talents. Before too long, my speaker buddies asked if I could teach them some acting and comedy skills. I called my class Story Theater. Looking back on it now, it was a natural progression from actor to acting coach. From being directed, to being the director. And lo and behold, my fear went away.

Teaching Story Theater was intuitive. It was easy and natural. And unlike all of the other presentation styles and topics Id tried on in an effort to be perceived as a credible expert and professional speaker, with Story Theater I didnt have to rent something else. I owned it. Id found my essence and what my area of expertise really was.

For many years, and by way of hundreds of speeches as a professional speaker, I had been working my way back to that state of total confidence and absolute fearlessness. Ive changed topics, let go of material that didnt work for me and moved closer to my core competencies and natural speaking style. Ive evolved forward into a mature and graceful version of the zany, crazy clown that I was as a child and teenager.

Last Friday I gave a keynote to a group of human resource professionals from all over the world, about The Story Theater Method. I was as funny as I used to be in high school, and I realized that I had finally captured what used to be so elusive.

For years, I rented my space as a speaker. Now I own it.

When you step to the front of the room as a speaker or trainer, do you rent the space, or do you own it? Are you renting a presentation style that is a version of your idea of appropriate and professional or do you experience total confidence and absolute fearlessness? Do you hide behind content and PowerPoint? Is your personality stifled by your perception that if you really showed up, you wouldnt be accepted?

That was my fear. It was based in shame and self-doubt. By returning to my true essence, I found freedom. It was hard to trust myself. It was scary. And it didnt happen overnight. It took time, courage and perseverance. I had to try and fail, and try again.

We cannot change the world until we are willing to change. I challenge you the next time you step in front of a room full of people own it. Own your talent, own your style, own the space. Claim it all for your own, with total confidence and fearlessness. Never rent again.

Own it!

Protection dog training - Frequently Asked Questions

2007-09-07T19:05:00.000-07:00

Is a protection dog mean?

A well trained protection dog is social with everyone. A well trained protection dog does not interpret situations to show aggression, but rather waits for his owners command before using force.

Will a protection dog also be a watchdog and bark at everyone who comes to my door?

This depends on the training. A good trainer can develop a dogs natural tendencies to customize the training to your situation.

Is a protection dog good to live in the house?

Dogs trained for protection such as German Shepherds, Belgian Malinois, and Rottweilers are very adaptable and are just as capable living in an apartment as they are on a ranch. Regardless of where they live they should get adequate exercise.

Will a protection dog be good with my kids?

Some dogs are better than others with kids. Work with a qualified trainer to make sure that your dog will be fine with your kids. It is also important to note that children should be taught proper dog etiquette and should be supervised when around any dog.

Will a protection dog bite someone without my command?

A well trained protection dog will bite only on command. Unfortunately, there are many dog trainers who do a sub-par training job with protection dogs. Make sure you are getting your protection dog from a reputable trainer

How much does a protection dog cost?

If you buy a trained dog the cost will vary greatly. Factors will be age of dog, titles the dog has earned, look of the dog, amount of training, etc. A young dog with basic training can be bought for a few thousand while a dog with working titles and extensive additional training may cost $20,000 and up.

I dont have any particular threats. Should I get a protection dog?

Many people that purchase protection dogs havent had break-ins or stalkers or previous violent attacks. They value the benefits of a great pet who would be able to handle a violent situation were it to ever arise. People that shouldnt get a protection dog are people that want to use them as an offensive weapon. These dogs should only be owned by responsible, mature people who want the dogs as a crime deterrent and last line of defense.

Are there specific laws that deal with protection dogs?

Yes. Certain cities require a special registration for protection dogs. Certain areas also have breed specific legislation which deals with restrictions for certain breeds. Check with your city and county offices for specific laws and ordinances.

Author Ty Brown is a renowned dog trainer whose training adventures and clients have taken him to 18 states and 5 countries to teach others how to properly train their dogs. Go to dogbehavioronline.com for more dog training articles, advice, tips, and answers from a professional dog trainer.

How To Choose The Best Student Laptop?

2007-09-06T18:41:00.000-07:00

How To Choose the Best Student Laptop?

Merchants are singing those three magic words again, 'Back to School' and the fallout is everywhere!

Just as you're getting your deep dark pre-cancerous tan going -- you hear those words -- and it spells the end of summer. Once again we are bombarded with advertising, featuring the latest in 'teen ware' 'school ware' and 'metal detector ware'. Kidding!

Is it just me or does it seem this year there is a lot more 'Back to School' advertising for notebooks and laptops? They seem to be everywhere... on TV, radio, and online.

Laptop ads are everywhere. Why is this?

Well, notebooks have come down in price, they have become more affordable, even for the modest student. Laptops have also come down in size, making them ideal for that school napsack, or dormroom. They have also become tougher and sturdier... better equipped to meet the hard/wear/tear that students give it.

With notebook technology changing every two years or so; notebooks can now handle most tasks students throw their way. These advanced notebooks can do the job. They also present a much stronger entertainment value to students, they can handle better graphics and gaming, but most students try to keep parents in the dark about this factor as they plead for a new laptop for college or school. All this pleading is further fueling the demand for laptops.

Then there is a little thing called the Internet. Throw in a wireless connection and the student laptop is coming into its own. Big Time!

The Internet has become a second teacher/parent/counselor to most students. God help us all! But it has also become a priceless source of the collective knowledge on this planet; frightening but true. The Internet is an invaluable source of knowledge for any high school/college student.

Not having ready access to all this knowledge and information will put any student at a disadvantage with his peers. It's a very competitive world, in high school, in college and in the future job market; every student should have an even playing field.

That's where the little notebook computer enters stage right!

Laptops or notebooks have quickly become a school necessity. When? How? Why?...

It's the perfect learning tool for students:

* very portable, you can carry them anywhere, class, cafe, dorm, home...

* very convenient, you can take notes in class, type up assignments, print assignments, communicate home, access the Internet...

* very tough, many newer notebooks are designed to withstand a good pounding and keep on computing, ruggerized for sturdy use...

* very powerful, notebooks or laptops are catching up to their desktop cousins in computing speed, hard drive storage and performance...

* very affordable, prices have dropped and are falling even further, laptops are now outselling desktop PCs so this price will drop even further, there's a whole slew of used and refurbished laptops hitting the market...

If you're a parent, student, or guardian; here are some of the factors you should consider when buying the best student laptop or notebook:

* size, it must be small, lightweight and very portable, fit comfortably under the arm or in that backpack

* sturdy, it must be tough, sturdy, ruggerized, and able to take more than one hard knock because students are students

* connections, wireless connections should be offered, the Internet is such a valuable tool in itself - a student should be able to access it anywhere. Most notebooks have these connections but check -- a printer port, a 56Kbps-modem, a VGA port for an external monitor, and should have at least one USB port for external keyboard/mouse, digital cameras, drives, and MP3 players

* technical specs, it should have enough RAM, storage space (hard drive) and computing speed to do any job the student can throw at it

* battery life, make sure your student notebook has a reasonable battery life, 5 hours or more

* price, it should be reasonably priced, refurbished laptops may be an option for those on a strict budget

However, some words of wisdom, students or parents shouldn't skimp too much -- if you're spending 10's of thousands on an education, you should also provide for the best possible equipment in the form of a sturdy, lightweight high performance laptop. Besides, a high quality laptop will last for years... just imagine your son or daughter writing their resumes on it after they have finished college... keep this image in your mind as you go about buying that perfect student laptop.
