					  <link>http://www.articleinformer.com/articles/179432/1/Heres-an-Idea---Encourage-Someone-Today/Page1.html</link>
					  <description><![CDATA[Here is what you should do today. Encourage someone to do the things they want to do in life. It does not matter if it's your child, your spouse, a friend, a co-worker, whoever. I guarantee you will make someone's day by offering even a little encouragement.<BR>
<BR>
Most of us are trained growing up that we can't do this or can't do that. Not only that, but we're trained to think others can't do anything special either.]]></description>

					  <description><![CDATA[General David Petraeus would be a rock star in the business world today. He is a man that knows how to turn the worst situation into a success relatively quickly. Gen. Petraeus took over command of the Iraq war at the start of 2007, and led what was called "the surge" of troops into Iraq. Most fully expected the General and his strategy to fail miserably.]]></description>

					  <description><![CDATA[Among the companies I've worked with one of the biggest money holes is poor software training. So many companies, from Fortune 100 down to 10-20 employee businesses believe that the training provided by the software manufacturer is sufficient. It never is because while the software company may understand the generalities of your industry, they never have a full understanding of the your company's particular way of doing business.]]></description>

					  <description><![CDATA[Love him or not, Senator Barack Obama has proven to be a Maverick Thinker. His campaign has done so many things that are just not standard politician fare. Just the idea that a young, African-American man would even have a real shot at the Presidency is a maverick thought in itself. But, Sen. Obama is on the verge of being elected President of the United States.]]></description>

					  <description><![CDATA[There is one thing I cannot stand in the business world, and that is a weak sales person. OK, there are some other things I can't stand, but weak sales people are my number one annoyance. How can you expect to sell anything if you are afraid to even ask for a sale? Worse yet, why would any company hire such an individual?<BR>

As many people know, I believe in going big or going home.]]></description>

					  <link>http://www.articleinformer.com/articles/170827/1/How-I-Lost-31-Pounds-and-Counting---Part-One/Page1.html</link>
					  <description><![CDATA[Let me preface this article series by saying I am not a dietitian, health care professional, or personal trainer. I am simply a writer and businessman who decided I had to do something about my weight. I was not obese, but certainly was overweight and heading for clogged arteries and probably a heart attack before I hit 50. What follows is what worked for me, and what I honestly believe will work for anyone willing to commit mentally.]]></description>

					  <description><![CDATA[This article could have been called "Drive Through Fast Food Lane," or "Grab Lunch and Fill 'er Up at the Drive Through." I liked all three. The fact is, there is a huge, as yet untapped resource out there that could drastically reduce emissions, and slash dependence on oil. This fuel source can be found all over the country at McDonald's, Burger King, Wendy's, and many other fast food chains.]]></description>

					  <description><![CDATA[Technology today makes it possible to easily connect to your work computer from anywhere over the internet. Smart phones make it easy to send and receive email from just about anywhere. And of course, having that cell phone makes it possible to reach, or be reached by, anyone, anytime of day or night.<BR>
<BR>
All this technology should make us more productive, but in many cases it can lead to less productivity.]]></description>

					  <link>http://www.articleinformer.com/articles/166461/1/We-Can-Drive-Oil-Prices-Down-Now/Page1.html</link>
					  <description><![CDATA[In America today the average price of gasoline has skyrocketed past $4.00 per gallon with no end in sight. Oil prices have doubled since the end of 2007 with $200 per barrel conceivable within months. Still, no one seems to have a solution. The government is inept, and only seems willing to add to the problem rather than solve it.<BR>
<BR>
If the Congress had any concern for you or me they would lift all Federal gas taxes to help us out.]]></description>

					  <link>http://www.articleinformer.com/articles/166424/1/Solutions-for-the-Mining-and-Aggregate-Industries/Page1.html</link>
					  <description><![CDATA[The Mining and Aggregate industries face tough challenges every single day. The harsh environments are dirty, dusty, moist, and can be very cold or very hot. Further, the stop and start of much of the heavy machinery causes extreme stress on motors, drives, belts, and bearings. Maintenance is often difficult to manage, and often results in machine downtime.]]></description>
