			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>In recent years, the topic on patent, patent conflicts, and anti-trust cases have become rampant among companies with big names. Companies owning properties which are protected by patent can sue for unauthorized use of their original work by individuals seeking to make money.</p>
<p>With existence of intellectual property rights laws, creators are encouraged and are now more driven to keep devising, planning, writing, and simply creating something out of their multitude of ideas. Inventors and creators make serious and decent living out of their creations. Patent all your precious inventions so that perpetrators who are devising ways of stealing would have to think twice before they violate the law, because the law will literally make them pay for their crime.</p>
<p>Do you have an invention but are not sure whether it should be patented or not? Do your ideas or creations necessitate a patent? Here are basic patent precepts:</p>
<p>Patent is a promise made by the government to protect unique forms of innovations or discoveries and give the owner exclusive rights to create, employ or trade the patented ideas, items. To press individuals to be imaginative in a number of ways, the use of patents came to happen. The three types of patents are:</p>
<p>Utility patents. Usually a general design, machine, compositions of matter, processes (ex. software) and almost all sorts of man-made items that individuals can come up with and consider getting them patented.</p>
<p>Design patents. Building or fabricating special designs and look of the operational product.</p>
<p>Plant patents. Given by the government to a person (or to whomever the person assigns) who has invented or discovered and asexually reproduced a different and new variety of plant, other than a tuber propagated plant or a plant found in an uncultivated state.</p>
<p>A new creation or discovery has to be something new to the public or has a peculiar characteristic which doesn&#8217;t exist in models or types the same to the variety. Research thoroughly before applying for a patent.</p>
<p>After performing a search, you will find out the differences among a patent, copyright and a trademark. Graphic works like photographs, sculptures, drawings, etc are neither inventions nor discoveries which should be under the copyrights category.  Mathematical principles are natural forms as well as natural products like herbs for use in medicines cannot be patented.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Have you been searching for the right online business, but can&#8217;t find it. Are you tired of all the scams out there? Have you thought about working from house but were afraid. Has it usually been a dream of yours to work from house? Well keep reading and I will show you the perfect program.</p>
<p>If you&#8217;re tired of functioning for somebody else and producing them rich, then do something about it. Function for yourself.</p>
<p>Nicely you might be asking, how do I do that, you will find so many scams out here. True, you will find a lot of scams. But this is not one of those. It is not MLM or a pyramid scheme, it&#8217;s not some bogus get paid to take survey. it is not a bogus envelope stuffing scheme, and this really is certainly not a get rich quick scheme.</p>
<p>But it is a legitimate online business which will earn you an additional $500 per month should you apply all that&#8217;s taught.</p>
<p>Imagine what you can do with that extra cash every month. You can finally get those bills paid down. You could maybe take that loved ones trip you usually wanted or even purchase yourself something nice.</p>
<p>You see, this will not produce anything should you don&#8217;t put any effort into it. And also the more time and effort you place into it, the much more you will earn. What kind of business is this anyway? Affiliate Marketing.</p>
<p>Affiliate marketing and advertising is simply selling other people&#8217;s items for a commission. Not just any item though, but digital products. A digital item is info that you can buy on the internet and then download it onto your computer. Back to what Affiliate Marketing is. What you&#8217;ve to do is find products for sale, promote them and get the sales and collect the cash.</p>
<p>One program in particular that I like is My Online Income System. This program teaches you everything you need to know about succeeding on the internet and producing a decent earnings from home. So do not delay, get started these days. You owe it to your self and your family to make this change.</p>
<p>My full <a href="http://www.earn-money-online24.info/blueprintstoprofitsreview/">Blueprints To Profits Review</a>. If you buy the course you will receive the best <a href="http://www.earn-money-online24.info/blueprintstoprofitsreview/">Blueprints To Profits Bonus</a> here.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I deal with S1 attorneys all day every day and most of them are entrepreneurial, hard working and interested in helping you in any way they can but there are also a lot of bad ones out there. If you are taking your company public the last thing you want is a broke as a joke s1 filing agent.</p>
<p>I recently had the misfortune of working with (for a very short time I might add) a New Jersey lawyer who had us all convinced by her pepper gray hair and fluency of legal jargon as a second language and quick calls to what she had us convinced where big shot investors who had millions to put into this and other transactions we brought her way.</p>
<p>During initial negotiations she and I sat down in a coffee shop and went over her equity position and fees in the transactions that she&#8217;d be working on for us and it was pretty simple and straight forward. I would have my team organize and structure the company and transaction and she would simply file the s1 in exchange for 2% to 3% equity. Pretty nice payday for minimal work and gaining equity in an average company producing $5m+ per year.</p>
<p>Ah yes, but when it sounds too good to be true it is and when it seems too easy of a negotiation&#8230;it is! When she sent us the contract she felt the need to add a few percentage points to the tune of 7%, making a total of 10% equity and she also was charging an extra $10k to fill in the blanks on your prototypical PPM doc. Why did she jack up the price? Her response was, &#8220;This S1 will have comments&#8221;. I almost died laughing. Of course it&#8217;s going to have comments with the SEC, that&#8217;s why it&#8217;s called the &#8216;comments&#8217; stage.</p>
<p>We talked her into taking 2 payments for the $10k, half upfront and half on completion but we really should have dumped her right there. She didn&#8217;t want to keep her word on that either so I paid her the last payment before the fee was due and just got rid of her. </p>
<p>Turns out she never filed an s1 before and her whole act was a sham. She was desperate for cash and nickled and dimed us the whole time. I laugh about it now but it wasn&#8217;t funny when it happened. We lost over a month of transaction time because she couldn&#8217;t tell the truth. </p>
<p>The client was going public on the OTCBB with a valuation of around $5m, her suggestion was to raise capital pre public for $1 per share because the company would have a hard time qualifying for the NASDAQ if it started at anything less than $1. This company was years away from even considering the NASDAQ as an option but her in experience and need to prolong the deal to rape us for fees was so blatant and careless that she did everything she could to add as much confusion to the deal as possible so that no one knew what was going on, therefore she got away with a lot and was able to pick our pockets for weeks before we got rid of her.</p>
<p>The moral of the story is this: not all attorneys are rich. The truth is, most are very modest as far as their earnings. There is too much competition these days so there are predatory lawyers out there that will lie, double talk, triple talk and run you around in circles. All the while the clock is ticking and they are billing you like it&#8217;s going out of style. Watch your back with the dead broke S1 lawyer.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>As the unfortunate recipients of a bastardized economy whose immediate future is as grim as the past two years there is a massive economic shift. Banks are crumbling towers of cards and executives in charge of this so called &#8216;rebound&#8217; effort are about as qualified as a blind, deaf, mute, quadriplegic trying to win the iron man. In short, at this rate we&#8217;re in big trouble.</p>
<p>How ca a global economy prosper when we have intellectual midgets at the helm as nothing more than marionettes dancing to strings attached to the fingers of bureaucratic madmen controlled by power, greed and the need to dominate? The answer in short, take the control out of their hands and put it in the hands of the people. Companies need to stop looking to the government and bailout legislation for assistance.</p>
<p>&#8220;What the government Giveth It Will Surely Taketh Away&#8221;. The government gives only to receive ten fold. Banks and institutional finance are under the thumb of the Federal Reserve, a private organization keeping the citizens of this country in debt with fractional reserve lending and FDIC criteria that turns well intentioned banks into armed henchmen.</p>
<p>The only way to step out and take control of our economic fate is to step out of the institutional mainstream and all things associated with the traditional &#8217;system&#8217;. The best way a company can do this is by going public. Taking your company public allows you to take control of your financial destiny and take advantage of the OTCBB (Over The Counter Bulletin Board), London Exchange and Frankfurt Exchange. The NASDAQ and NYSE are great but flawed by institutional over involvement.</p>
<p>Align yourself with globalization consultants that can take our mid size regional company and transform it into a well oiled, economically viable international powerhouse. Going public can offer you the financial means to eliminate the fragility that automatically transcends into your business model when held hostage to the institutional mainstream. You have a great product or service, you have customers, go public and then go global. Nothing is holding you back from there. Your future is bright! Now get out there and make it happen.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>In today&#8217;s economic world, with a global recession affecting most nations, it&#8217;s important to cut down on costs wherever possible. This is especially true for large corporations, where the imperative is to try to save money, preserve profit and keep job losses at a minimum. One of the most common ways to cut expenses is to try and reduce the company electric bill where they can.</p>
<p>There are several ways to save on electricity. The most common one is to make sure the office lights are turned off when they&#8217;re not needed. The light bulbs can also be changed to low-energy models or compact fluorescent or LED bulbs. Air conditioning and heating shouldn&#8217;t be used excessively and should be maintained and serviced regularly.</p>
<p>Programmable thermostats should be used in office buildings and access should only be given to certain people. Getting an energy audit may also help and asking the electric company itself on how to cut down on electricity is a good idea.</p>
<p>When a computer isn&#8217;t being used it should be turned off or placed in standby or hibernation mode. Doors and windows should be checked for cracks and leaks as this can let in both hot and cold air depending on the season. Cell phone chargers and microwave ovens and other electrical consuming devices should be unplugged or placed on bypass as well when they&#8217;re not in use.</p>
<p>Depending on where you operate, you may also have the option of changing service providers. If this is possible, check out the rates of all electricity and gas providers in your area. You will of course, want to go with the cheapest rates possible without jeopardizing service quality.</p>
<p>It&#8217;s a good idea for businesses to calculate their electricity cost if they want to save on company electric bill. If they know exactly how many kilowatt hours are being used up it will help. They can also check out the internet for articles and tips on how to reduce their costs. Many of these tips can then be integrated into their energy-saving plans.</p>
<p>Ultimately, a professional energy services company or engineering firm will be a valuable resource once you have picked off the low hanging fruit mentioned above. These companies can help you design and implement long term strategies and technologies to significantly reduce your energy consumption and corresponding costs.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Hospitals and Medical Centers have many opportunities to significantly reduce and manage their energy costs while maintaining or even improving patient care and comfort.</p>
<p>Healthcare facilities are significant energy consumers, typically using an average of 28 kWh and 110 cubic feet of gas per square foot. HVAC (including cooling and space heating) represents about 62% of hospital energy use with lighting comprising 13% more. Focusing on these two areas with their combined 75% of total energy usage is very useful for developing an energy efficiency plan.</p>
<p>However, knowing where to focus does not mean it is always clear exactly where to start. By taking a carefully planned &#8220;whole facility&#8221; approach, it is easier to feel confident that you are making the best, most financially and operationally prudent energy efficiency choices for your unique facility. In today&#8217;s industry there are proven and recommended engineering approaches and technologies available that can guarantee results. And by working with an experienced, energy services company or engineering firm, choosing the right options does not need to be complicated.</p>
<p>The best first step is always to focus on quick, low cost or no cost solutions. This can include training staff to turn lights off when they leave unoccupied rooms, using sleep mode settings for computers when not in use, shutting off AHUs that serve unoccupied areas at night such as cafeterias, offices, conference rooms, etc, using programmable thermostats in rooms and areas not occupied 24 Hrs / day to turn up or down temperatures in different seasons, and having the HVAC systems serviced and cleaned on a regular basis. After you&#8217;ve addressed the &#8220;low hanging fruit&#8221;, next steps can involve choosing from a variety of longer term options that are designed to deliver much greater energy savings. Options should be considered based on their proven track record of success, whether they are &#8220;Approved&#8221; or &#8220;recommended&#8221; by organizations such as Energy Star, US DOE, USGBC, IEEE, etc., their cost effectiveness and return on investment as well as consistency with your hospital&#8217;s goals and culture Experience has shown that some of the better programs for hospitals include lighting upgrades to high efficiency fluorescent, CFL and/ or LED, use of occupancy sensors and day-lighting opportunities , sine wave modification for lighting circuits, liquid pressure amplification for central chiller plants, energy management based on occupancy, anti-compressor short cycling for roof top units, demand controlled ventilation, use of variable frequency drives and possibly equipment replacement for older systems that are approaching the end of their useful life. As you move forward with this, it helps to know that you don&#8217;t have to do it alone. There are experienced firms who can help make recommendations and provide turnkey services for you. In choosing a partner to guide this type of &#8220;whole facility&#8221; approach for you, it is important to look at a number of factors. You may want to ask the following: What is their level of experience using these various technologies, do they use proven and recommended approaches, what are the credentials of their staff, are they members of key industry organizations, what is their level of knowledge of your industry, do they offer a free initial evaluation and do they offer guarantees at each step of their process.</p>
<p>And remember that the sooner you begin, the sooner you start saving your hospital&#8217;s valuable and limited resources.</p>
