To say that social media has “changed the dynamics of how we use the Internet” would be an understatement. Since the launch of Orkut in 2004, Google has jumped on the social media bandwagon with its arch-rivals Facebook and Twitter. The latest edition of Google’s suite of web applications is Google Buzz, a new tool aimed at steering users away from other social networking sites.

What is Google Buzz?

Google Buzz is an email-enabled social media outlet that is (according to some) going to take the social media world by storm. It is designed to allow users to share photos, videos, links, and status updates with their friends, as well as discuss shared content. It’s very similar to Facebook News Feed in that regard. It’s also similar to FriendFeed, a social sharing service acquired by Facebook last year with a small but devoted following.

The best thing about this app is that it’s easy to integrate in one step with users’ existing Gmail accounts, something Google is probably counting on to make this product a success. With a user base of 174 million ‘Gmailers’, Google Buzz is looking for a large pool of potential users.

What is not so good is that it is similar to many services that are already on the market. Google Buzz seems like a “me too” product. People already have a plethora of ways to share content with their friends: Facebook and Twitter are two popular options. Blogging is another. Sending text and picture messages via email to friends is still very popular. So, will Google Buzz make consumers change?

Dealing with the competition:

With a strong loyal user base of 400 million, social media giant Facebook has been in business since 2007 and is gobbling up the market pie faster by the minute. By constantly innovating and adding new features, Facebook has been able to attract and retain more users than any other social networking site, and is Google’s #1 competitor. It is followed in second place by Twitter, with 18 million registered users.

Over the years, Google has made several attempts to catch up with the competition, but has failed to pull it off.

Unstable trajectory:

Google hasn’t exactly established itself in the social media space. The search engine giant has been struggling to build a loyal customer base and seems to ship more apps than the market can handle. Most famously, Orkut failed to take off outside of India and Brazil, and Google’s other social networking efforts also crashed in the marketplace: Dodgeball, Jaiku, and OpenSocial, to name three.

More recently, Google launched Google Wave, another means of sharing information, data, and opinions, which didn’t really take off. Google representatives admitted that Buzz was inspired by Google Wave, describing it as “an online tool for real-time communication and collaboration.” “A wave can be both a conversation and a document where people can discuss and work together using rich text, photos, videos, maps, and more.” Basically, Google Wave is email, instant messaging, an online collaboration tool, and a wiki all rolled into one service. So what is the difference between Buzz and Wave?

buzz vs wave:

Google Buzz uses email updates, while Google Wave is real-time communication (you can actually see someone type their response or comment on an individual wave). Wave was built with collaboration features like editing a document, planning an event, creating meeting notes, and so on. But if you just want to share photos, videos, or comments that don’t require real-time communication, then Google Buzz is probably the best option.

One of the problems with Wave is that it’s a difficult tool to explain to others, and once you understand what Wave is, it’s even more difficult to understand everything you can do with it. Buzz, on the other hand, works similar to email and focuses on one thing: sharing content with others. This is probably one of the reasons why Google Wave didn’t work as well as everyone hoped.

However, Google Buzz could prove to be much more promising than its predecessor:

Buzz, from day one, is a better and more elegant service than Facebook has become after six years. Part of this is because Facebook had to create its network from scratch and was a pioneer in the category, giving it a lot of baggage to overcome at this point. Meanwhile, Google has the advantage of building on Gmail and being able to grab good ideas from both Facebook and Twitter. I call this “second mover advantage”. Google Buzz is simple, elegant and quite fast. Buzz makes it easy to include photos and other media in posts, which is an advantage over Facebook. Google is not in the habit of making major changes when users are comfortable with previous changes. Facebook seems adrift; Google No.

Google’s privacy beats Facebook’s privacy. Despite number 1 below, Google generally gets good marks for protecting user data. Facebook has had a series of privacy issues that have created considerable distrust among users. Buzz works within Gmail. Having social media integrated into an app that most people live with makes email a more natural part of communication, not a separate online destination and process. The Gmail users in your contact list are the foundation of your community. Buzz automatically builds relationships, resulting in a social network that includes more of your existing friends, as long as they use Gmail. Making networks automatically has advantages and disadvantages, but it seems like a benefit to the user.

Marketing potential:

Another point I would like to highlight is the fact that while Facebook has carved a niche for itself in the ‘casual and purely social’ space, Google Buzz has the potential to target the business user space. As many people today also use Gmail and Gtalk for professional use, the chances of users building sustainable business networks on this platform are high. This leaves plenty of room for B2B marketers to learn how to use this medium effectively.

A person diagnosed with autism may experience challenges in social skills, language development, and repetitive behaviors. It is a neurodevelopmental disorder. It tends to fuse between 2 and 3 years of age. About 1 in 68 American children is diagnosed with autism. It is more common in boys than in girls. It has been documented that Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) has proven to be the most successful.

Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is the full name. There are mild, moderate, and severe symptoms, making it a spectrum disorder. Behavior analysis is a field within psychology that focuses on understanding behavior and how it is affected by the environment. The use of scientifically validated teaching techniques to bring about significant and positive change in behavior is known as Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA). The positive change is to correct the symptoms of ASD.

Positive changes in behavior are: (among others)

1. increase socialization
2. increase communication skills
3. decrease problematic and repetitive behaviors

Some of the common repetitive behaviors displayed in people with ASD are aggression, self-harm, strange speech, and hand flapping.

Although autism is typically a lifelong condition, it is beneficial for people to receive interventions and therapies. It becomes a concern when people do not reach certain developmental milestones. Learning to talk, walk, eat independently, and play with others are things a person should start learning between the ages of birth and 3 years. In general, autism means that the person is developmentally delayed in some way.

Someone who has autism may need more support to develop certain skills. Earlier interventions are better. Interventions can start as early as 18 months (with some agencies) up to 2 or 3 years. Individuals with Autism with different capacities and limitations. It is important that each individual is treated accordingly and has the best interventions and therapies for their needs.

Genetic disorders, sleep disorders, seizure disorders, and sensory processing are other problems that can occur in people with autism. Although it does not occur in all people with autism, in some there are genetic conditions that affect brain development. Some may have seizure disorders such as epilepsy. The seizures themselves can range from mild to severe as well. It is more common to experience sleep problems as a child than as an adult. With sensory issues, the individual will have trouble processing information. Pica is also something that someone with autism can experience. Pica is when someone eats things that are edible. As you can see, it really is a spectrum disorder. It is important to locate a professional who can assess the individual by diagnosing autism if she has it and identifying her strengths and weaknesses.

I’m not going to start another lecture on healthy eating, what to eat and what not to eat, blah blah blah. On the web, you can find quite a few articles about it. Staying healthy and fit does not imply the idea that you should only eat vegetables and fruits. I know how hard it is not to respond to seductive calls for pizzas, hamburgers, or other spicy and cheesy foods. And for what? Because you want to keep your waist trimmed, forever.

How much does it cost to go to the movies today? If you like a good legal drama, for about the cost of a bucket of popcorn and a large soda, you can see a good ticket lawyer defend you in court. It may not be a compelling plot, but the happy ending will be real and it will be yours, not some Hollywood screenwriter’s fantasy.

But can a good ticket attorney really deliver? The short answer is yes, because like all good lawyers they know how to argue the technicalities that make the rest of us sleep. They also know how to recognize fines that will not be dismissed. When a citation meets the letter of the transportation code, penal code, and criminal procedure code of a particular state, unless the citation officer does not appear to testify, a dismissal is likely not anticipated. Those fines are almost always paid, with a defendant agreeing to take deferred adjudication and pay a fine and some court costs. As long as the postponement period is completed without incident and the fine and costs are paid, the fine will never appear on a driving record. Even in these circumstances, a good ticket lawyer can help reduce the fines and shorten the period of deferment.

If your driving record so far is not good, a good ticket attorney is a great resource. When you receive a ticket for a traffic violation (usually a violation of a state transportation code provision or a county or municipal ordinance), you enter what can seem like a Kafkaesque nightmare; the local county or township traffic court. The kind of place where you get stuck in a circular holding pattern as you go from one employee to another. While it may seem like a bureaucratic maze, to a good ticket attorney, traffic court is a negotiator’s paradise.

The city and county prosecutors are not going to share this with you, but they are very willing to negotiate with your attorney. Most people cited for traffic violations don’t realize this and choose to pay their tickets instead of hiring an attorney to contest them. As a consequence, those law-abiding citizens pay more fines and are given longer probation periods.

Simply turning around and paying without making a fuss can have more serious negative consequences: it’s a conviction on your driving record. The consequential costs caused by such a conviction can quickly snowball and overshadow any immediate financial damage. One ticket too many can result in increased insurance premiums, suspension of your driver’s license, and state-imposed penalties. If you’re a trucker with a CDL, it can even cost you your livelihood.

If you are in a position where you are wondering if hiring a ticket attorney is a good idea, you should probably hire one.

A good ticket attorney can effectively communicate with the city, county, and state apparatus on your behalf. A lawyer knows the vocabulary and can speak the language. Your attorney’s trump card is the ability to litigate, to bring your case before a judge and jury. That creates a huge incentive to make a deal with you; after all, no prosecutor wants to spend their time prosecuting traffic ticket cases. This influence that a good ticket attorney can exert over a prosecutor is hard to miss, particularly when the cost of this type of legal representation is relatively low.

So why do lawyers do it?

Don’t be too surprised if they tell you it’s the fastest way they’ve found to bring a smile of genuine gratitude to their customers’ faces.

With summer just around the corner, we’re all gearing up for the season of bikinis, exposed abs, and shiny new belly buttons. While some may dread this season, you’ll soon find that there really is no reason to regard the long, hot days of summer as anything less than a season of fun. The good news is that to get your tummy in shape to wear the latest and greatest belly button rings, you only need a few weeks, a minimum of sit-ups, and the right types of food.

A healthy and successful weight strategy is 80% based on the foods you choose to eat. Knowing this simple little fact makes facing the summer season and your belly a lot less scary. And let me emphasize that you Will being able to eat food – great tasting food. Starving yourself to get six pack abs is not a good strategy! No one will enjoy your belly buttons if you end up sick and have to stay home.

Here are several diet tips to get a flat tummy to show off your belly rings:

* Choose foods rich in nutrients. This means that you should stay away from processed white carbohydrates, such as processed grains, potatoes, rice, bread, and pasta.

*Learn to love your vegetables and protein. Grill up some summer squash and a chicken breast and you’ll find you don’t even miss cornbread or mashed potatoes. Try a chicken burger with tomato, lettuce, avocado and a thin whole wheat bun. Or skip the bun and toss it all into a salad.

* Experiment with MUFA. These are your monounsaturated fatty acids: the good fats. This category includes natural peanut butter, avocados, walnuts, almonds, olive oil, and sunflower seeds, just to name a few. This type of fat actually helps you burn belly fat to get ready to show off your belly buttons.

This is just the tip of the iceberg for getting a flat tummy that is sexy and fit for belly rings, bikinis, and overall better health. Dive into that salad, and then get ready to dive into some summer fun.

Not only are they big in size, Newfoundland dogs are big in strength and great in loyalty. Typically black in color, the loving and patient Newfoundland dog is distinguished by its unique webbed foot which allows it to be great swimmers. Once used for working dogs in water rescue. They are considered easy to train and eager to please. Very laid back, almost sluggish at times, this giant pet, like most extra-large breed dogs, has a slower metabolism, which means less intense exercise, but he’s 6 feet from nose to tail, and the males weigh up to 160 pounds on average. Surely you have the space for this black bear in your house.

The Newfoundland’s coat requires weekly grooming as they will shed and mat like crazy. Perhaps an outdoor space that includes a fenced-in yard for him to stretch out his giant body and an extra-large doghouse, even climate-controlled, would be nice to keep him comfortable under all that fur. When it comes to a pet of this size, you can’t help but consider the logistics of how they will literally “fit” into the home. Their disposition is calm, gentle and loving, which makes them excellent in a home with children. They will protect with a deep bark when their keen sense of hearing picks up the noise of someone approaching.

As with many large breeds, they can develop problems with their weight-bearing hips in later years. The extra large doghouse will give them room to lie down and out of the way so they don’t have to get up to move. With their massive size and weight, they can sometimes be a challenge to work around in the home, so this outdoor oasis for rest and relaxation may be the best idea for dogs and owners alike.

Storage is not a new concept. People have been storing little treasures and precious trinkets ever since early man decided to hide his collection of saber-toothed tiger necklaces under his mammoth-skin rug so his wife wouldn’t force him to throw them away. Our storage methods have become more sophisticated over the years, but for many the principle remains the same. People want to protect what they love unless someone mistakes it for something worthless and throws it away carelessly. The use of self-storage facilities has grown dramatically in recent years, as space becomes more of an issue and consumers increase their shopping habits.

Convenience is an important factor when deciding whether or not to use self storage facilities. In the US and UK, facilities are located within 3 minutes of the urban population so you can travel to your unit, take care of what you need to do, and be back before anyone knows you’re gone.

The terms governing self-storage are flexible and generally only apply from month to month. You are free to cancel the service as soon as you no longer need it. There are no long-term binding contracts. Self-storage is also flexible with regard to the belongings that can be stored. It can be used for personal storage, business storage, and record storage, etc.

Self-storage is a relatively inexpensive way to meet your growing storage needs. Units come in different sizes and the average monthly cost will depend on the size of the unit you rent.

Privacy is assured as you use your own lock and keys to keep your unit secure. You are also the only one who controls access to your drive.

The coordination and integration of services has increased as more and more facilities have begun to offer truck rentals, moving supplies, mailboxes, and a variety of other products and services to help you move your goods into storage. They will also help you coordinate all of your needs from one place.

The units are temperature controlled, which means they’re perfect for storing all your personal belongings, even delicate items prone to wear and tear in changing conditions, like books. Temperatures stay between 55 and 70 degrees Fahrenheit year-round. Some facilities even have humidity control features for extra protection of your belongings.

Other reasons to make use of self-storage facilities include: storing seasonal utilities, for example furniture or garden tools; store seasonal clothes, i.e. winter clothes in summer and summer clothes in winter; for bulky sports equipment such as windsurfing or surfboards; as a temporary storage space while you decorate or remodel your home; storage of recreational vehicles such as jet skis, boats, caravans, motorcycles, etc.; and to make your house look neater and less cluttered when you try to sell it.

Self-storage is one of those staples you can live without until you get it, and then you have no idea how you survived this long without it. The reasons you use self storage may change over time. You may even find that your needs increase so that you have to start renting a larger unit. Whatever your reasons, self-storage is endlessly useful, and as lack of living space continues to become a human problem, additional storage space will only become more popular.

Giving up sugar was one of the most significant achievements of my life. I am the biggest recovered sugar addict in the world (!!).

While sugar is the most addictive food there is, it doesn’t affect everyone that way. One of the key factors in sugar addiction is susceptibility.

I am one of the susceptible people and have had strong reactions to sugar all my life.

How can you tell if you are susceptible to sugar?

Well, it’s often genetic.

Do either of your parents have hypertension? Diabetes? obesity? Alcoholism?

What about depression? Or hypoglycemia (low blood glucose)?

Do you have an apple shaped body type? (This really matters if you’re a woman.)

Do you exhibit any of these behaviors around sugar: compulsion to eat it, loss of control over how much you eat, unsuccessful efforts to quit smoking, cravings?

Does sugar interfere with your health? Does it make you isolate yourself, miss important events, or use excessive exercise, self-induced vomiting, or laxatives to counteract the effects of the sugar you eat?

If any of these sound familiar, you may be addicted to sugar. But what if you gave up sugar? How could that change your life?

What Sugar Recovery can do for you

Sugar, actually the high insulin it causes, promotes inflammation and disease: diabetes, prediabetes, high blood pressure, heart disease, cholesterol, obesity, cancer, and more. Giving up sugar can reverse many, if not most, of those. In fact.

Sugar can cause mood swings, anxiety, depression, irritability. Quitting smoking can help reverse mood problems and make you feel good.

Sugar masses with your energy. It can make you lethargic and sleepy all day. Quitting smoking can restore your energy levels.

Sugar makes you eat more. Giving up sugar can help you regain control of your appetite.

Sugar makes you want junk food. Change food preferences so that you want sugary and/or high-fat foods. Quitting smoking can make healthy foods seem tasty again.

What else can sugar recovery do?

If you recently stopped drinking, sugar can make you crave to drink and even cause a relapse. Quitting smoking can help prevent that and make you feel much better during your (ongoing and hopefully permanent) recovery.

Quitting smoking can make you a better role model for your children.
• Show them how you handled a big problem.
• Show them that you do what you say.
• Reverse past health problems so you can be there for key life events.
• Behave differently to treat them as they deserve.
• Become more ‘equivalent’ and less reactive to better manage other things as well.

In these and other ways, giving up sugar may be one of the best things you’ve ever done for your health, your attitude, your appetite, your behavior, your recovery, your children.

Best Cleaner to Use in a Pressure Washer for Concrete

Depending on your project, you might want to choose a different cleaner. The best way to choose the right cleaner is to read the manufacturer’s instructions. Some cleaners are more effective when pretreated, such as with a concentrated liquid. After applying the cleaner, you should scrub with a stiff bristle brush to remove any residue. If you use acid-based cleaners, you will need to neutralize them with a solution before pressure washing. Finally, make sure you rinse thoroughly with clean water.

Concrete cleaners are designed to pull dirt from the open pores in the concrete. When used correctly, they can help you finish cleaning the concrete faster and easier. The cleaner should be applied at a low pressure and left for three to five minutes before pressure washing. If you want to remove rust stains from the concrete, you may need to use an acidic cleaner.

When cleaning concrete, it is important to choose the right power washer. Ideally, gas or electric power washer surface cleaner with 3,000 PSI are the best options. Anything lower will result in uneven cleaning and more work. In addition, you must ensure that the cleaner that you use has the proper spray tip for the job. Choose a wide spray pattern that covers three or four inches at a time. Alternatively, you can attach a 14″ surface cleaner disc to the pressure washer wand to ensure even cleaning.

What is the Best Cleaner to Use in a Pressure Washer for Concrete?

If you are looking for a cleaner that works well, consider purchasing Krud Kutter Multi-Purpose Pressure Washer Concentrate. This product doesn’t specifically target concrete, but is a great choice for cleaning wood, concrete, stone, and other surfaces. It’s also affordable and works well with a pressure washer.

When choosing a cleaner for concrete, you should consider the type of stain. There are several types of concrete cleaner, including alkaline and acidic formulas. Alkaline concrete cleaners are a powerful degreaser. They work well to remove oil and grease stains from concrete. Acid cleaners can also remove hard water stains and mineral salt buildup. Enzyme cleaners, on the other hand, break down the chemical pollutants and turn them into harmless substances.

Oil stains can be tough to remove. Oil and grease penetrate the pores of concrete and leave behind a dark stain. The best solution to this problem is a cleaning agent. It can be applied with a scrub brush and can help remove stubborn stains. However, make sure to follow the manufacturer’s safety instructions and warnings before using any cleaning agent on concrete.

Generally, the best cleaner to use in a pressure washing machine is a combination of detergents and soaps. Detergents are more effective on specific surfaces because they don’t cause the calcium carbonate solid that soap does. These cleaners can be used before the pump or after the pump, depending on your needs and the type of surface you’re cleaning.

One of your most prized collector’s items for generations, the brilliantly embellished and ornate German Beer Mug requires extreme care and skillful handling of the valuable piece. Let’s discuss the vitals of proper display and cleaning of these beautiful vanity items.

pitcher display

Display your beer mugs with the lids closed as they prevent the aging process and ongoing damage compared to displays with open lids. Closed lids prevent oxidation of the inner body of the jug and thus stop the process of irrevocable staining of the jugs.

Vacuum Sealed Container Storage

All pitchers are man-made and age over time; For a longer, scratch-free, and blemish-free life of your carafe, protect it in the best possible way in a vacuum-sealed cover, which protects it from the oxidation process and thus slows down the aging process.

Avoid drinking beer from German steins

Beer lovers love to display and enjoy drinking their beer in beer mugs. The only fret is to stain and damage the beautiful piece of stone. However, the worst can be when it gets damaged while cleaning the part.

Do not clean in dishwasher

First, refrain from using a dishwasher. These have a constant flow of heat which causes the pitcher to dry out and maybe split or have a small crack. This is very challenging because the pewter mug, glass beer mug, or stoneware mug all encompass a different factor of expansion and contraction. Therefore, it is best not to use any type of automatic dishwasher to clean or rinse the jars.

hand cleaning

• rubber coating

When cleaning pitchers in the sink, first place a thick rubber mat with a liner at the base of your sink or tub. Second, cover the sides of the wash area for added protection, to prevent jars from coming into contact with the hard wash surface while cleaning.

• Fill the liner with warm water.

Fill the rubber pleated container with warm mild water and mild detergent for cleaning. Never wash with hot water as there is a possibility of expansion of the internal substances that make up the jar.

• One at a time

Always clean one by one, as two jars together can damage each other with their hard outer surface coating.

• Use an extra sponge

Apply a soft sponge to clean the glass beer mug and a toothbrush for ceramic mugs. If deep cleaning is required, soak the pitchers in soapy water for 5 minutes, but refrain from harsh scrubbing to clean.

• Rinse with clean water

Once you have finished cleaning the pitcher, rinse it well under cold water. Once it’s clean, pat it dry with a soft cotton towel.

• air dry

Beer mugs should be air dried before closing the lid. This will prevent any fungal growth on the inner walls of the jars. The only exception to this procedure is wooden jugs, which should never be completely submerged in water.

A proper and well-designed cleaning, display and handling regimen for a German beer mug helps preserve your precious collectible artwork for future generations.
