A Privacy Treatise The message is out – consumers have clear and growing expectations when it comes to the privacy they expect and ultimately demand for their personal contact information. Telecommunications organizations that ignore this need for privacy do so at their own peril. Those who listen and meet, or better yet, exceed consumers’ expectations, will ultimately win in the marketplace. Privacy is what your customer says it is – independent of regulation, laws and contract language.

Based on recent market occurrences, changes in regulation, carrier pronouncements and the results from several national consumer-level surveys, the trend is clear: privacy matters!

Unmistakable messages from the marketplace:

In the Zelos Group’s National Wireless Usage Study, only 2 percent of US consumers indicated that they would list their wireless telephone number without any type of privacy and/or call screening in place. In this same study, 51 percent of the that same sample and 69 percent of 13 to 24 year olds within the study are willing list their mobile number IF they had guaranteed privacy protection and/or defined call screening procedures 41% of US consumers subscriber to a caller ID service; 57% of 18-24 year-olds subscriber to a caller ID service. Over 20 percent of all fixed line phone numbers and 98% of wireless numbers are unlisted in the US. This number exceeds 40 percent for Arizona and Alaska and approaches 50 percent in large cities. Over 51 Million numbers in the US were registered on the national Do-Not-Call registry. This is over 50 percent of residential phone numbers, all prior to the lists’ October 2, 2003 implementation. The US market has never seen a more clear indication that consumers are feed up with unwelcome commercial contacts. 88 percent of wireless subscribers said that their number one reason for not lisingt their mobile number would be to avoid telemarketing calls.

The Current Model is Broken The current model for being “listed / not listed” is no longer viable for today’s consumers in today’s technologically dynamic environment. The number of ways we can be contacted is growing: (listing all your personal and professional phones, emails, IM addresses, SMS, Push to Talk (PTT) physical addresses, etc, this list exceeds 15 to 20 for most of us) our technological capabilities seems to have at least temporarily exceeded regulatory, not to mention social and ethical, development in the area of communications. It is now possible for almost anyone to locate and communicate with most of us anytime, anywhere. In the US market, the combination of relentless tele-marketing campaigns and poor personal manners has nearly converted this communications convenience into a bane within modern society.

Consumer backlash to this growing erosion of personal privacy is becoming increasingly apparent. Marketers, telcos and database aggregators have not, to date, met consumer privacy needs or expectations. Newly introduced and highly restrictive regulation in the EU, the inability to successfully introduce wireless numbers to a directory database (anywhere they had not been part of a database from the introduction of mobile phones) and growing public ire are the fruits of this collective inability to address consumer expectations.

Today, for most types of personal and professional contact information, there are two options: listed and not listed. Many other communications points are “unlisted” in the sense that they are not easily available in a directory such as email or websites. These other communications methods are more likely to be considered permissions-based devices. Those communication methods that require the subscriber to provide their specific contact information to those they wish to reach them.

Privacy is what your customer says it is Legal and regulatory definitions ultimately matter less than what your customer believes or expects. On most US wireless subscriber contracts today, text appears that states that upon signing the contract the subscriber grants their express permission for their number to be utilized for directory purposes. This does not mean that adding mobile numbers to the DA/DQ database will be easy, or even go unchallenged. In fact very few consumers are aware of the fact that their mobile numbers could, technically, be listed today. Consumers perceive their mobile numbers to be private independent of their current legal status consumers believe them to be private. Any across-the-board move to change this would likely meet with not only customer opposition but possible regulatory intervention.

This discussion extends beyond the introduction of wireless numbers in the US DA/DQ database. It will ultimately expand to include the range of possible ways in which one can be contacted. A viable model must be found and implemented that both provides for connectivity, but that also gives consumers control over who may contact them, when, where and how. This is especially true in the US market, given the combination of over zealous telemarketing efforts and a general disregard for personal privacy (in contrast to Scandinavian countries where more than 90% of all phone numbers, including mobile phones, are listed). There is a huge upside (revenues from WDA are estimated at $3.4 Billion annually) and a huge downside (inability to launch WDA, erosion in fixed line database, inability to launch future services, increased regulation) if the market fails to achieve the precise mix of communications and control.

A New Model for Privacy AND Communication Providing greater consumer privacy and better connectivity at the same time are not mutually exclusive ends. This issue extends beyond wireless numbers to include a range of personal contact points. If directory providers are not providing it, regulators have a demonstrated zeal for stepping in and regulating privacy – which can ultimately be to the detriment of all parties. Without a change, call volumes will decline, and we argue, out ability to communicate with one and other will be increasingly limited.

The Formula Carriers and DA/DQ providers who can integrate the following five points, into their service and effectively communicating them to consumers will ultimately be successful at providing better services to their customers. 1. Consumers want control 2. Consumers will not tolerate abuse 3. Information must become individual-centric rather than location centric 4. Timing: Now is the time to act 5. Education: Consumers Need to Know

Looking for bandwidth? That can be a daunting and frustrating task even in the best of situations. There’s lots to consider in order to make the right decision for your needs. Below you’ll find some help when evaluating Frame Relay vs VPN. Factors covered include Technology, Speed, Description, Application, Pros, Cons, and Costs.

~~~~~~~~~

Technology: Frame Relay

Speed: 56 Kbps – 1.544 Mbps

Description: A high-speed, packet based, data transmission service used in wide area networks (WANs) to connect multiple locations.

Application: Used to connect multiple locations to a main location or to each other.

Pros: Cheaper alternative to private line connections. Ability to burst when needed. Widely available.

Cons: Up-front equipment cost can be prohibitive.

Costs: Frame relay monthly cost starts at around a few $100 per location for a stable, reliable system. Price climbs as speed increases. However….the pricing for these connections varies widely depending on the carrier, location of service and the application for which the connection is being used.

~~~~~~~~~~

Technology: VPN

Speed: 56 Kbps – 1.544 Mbps

Description: VPN is a software-defined network that runs over a shared public network and offers the appearance, functionality and usefulness of a dedicated private network, at a price savings.

Application: A highly flexible method of communicating between locations via a secure tunnel on a large public network. Is becoming an increasingly popular alternative to Frame Relay and Private Line.

Pros: A user can access the network from any Internet connection. VPNs often cost less and are more flexible and scaleable than competing technologies.

Cons: The availability and performance of a company’s WAN is largely dependant on factors outside of their control.

Costs: VPN prices mirror that of dial-up or dedicated Internet Access. Cost of the VPN tunneling and encrypting is nominal. Expect to spend a few $100 at least for a stable, reliable system.

If you have been having memory errors and you look in your root directory and see a pagefile.sys that is by far the biggest file in there, and if you can follow me, I have the solution to make your computer go back to normal functioning.

Grab my coattails and let’s rock!

If the problem is an application filling up the pagefile.sys with crap, identify that application using the instructions here: http://www.askdavetaylor.com/how_can_i_fix_too_little_virtual_mem ory_in_windows.html, then reinstall that application.

For those comfortable with using the Registry and Regedit, use these instructions: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;314834 to clear the pagefile.sys on shutdown and reboot. If you do this and find that Windows did not recreate a new pagefile.sys, do the following.

Use MSCONFIG to turn off all startup programs and restart. Go into My Computer, Properties, Advanced, Performance Settings, Advanced, Change. Select Custom and put double your RAM in initial size and max size, hit Set and OK. Then go back into the registry and take out the change to clear the pagefile.sys.

This happened to me the first time I set my XP box up to clear teh page file but oddly enough not this time, while doing it again to write this blog (?!).

We can genetically modify a rat to be the same body temperature as a humans, then parachute in several thousand rats into enemy territory. These rats will pick up the enemies advanced warning and intrusion sensors by way of heat signature.

The enemy, thus thinks they are a division of troops with heavy armament trying to hide, perhaps interpreting these signatures as thousands of troops with all but a little of their skin showing. Think of the Predator movie where Sylvester Stallone was being hunted by the alien for sport. When “Sly” covered his skin with thick mud only a little heat signature could be seen. Troops with heavy bulletproof vests made of Kevlar with ceramic peck plates and helmets would appear similar and thus the area of a rat would be a similar amount of heat signature of human wearing such gear. Once you fool the enemy you can capture him?

Seeing thousands of such heat signatures would mimic what the enemy expects to see when they see thousands of troops in a battalion of infantry. The enemy thus would get scared and prepare to defend against the perceived imminent invasion. As the enemy gets scared and advances on the threat of an invading force of decoy rats we monitor and wait for enemy to fire on thousands of rats, then quickly mark the location from which the incoming fire, ordinance and missiles are launched. Once the enemy gives away their defense positions we send in the first round of UAVs with lethal weapons. EA (electronic attack) devices and smart munitions.

This idea has been perpetuating itself from news events such as the problem with the thousands of rats in Mexico town, which survived their own poisoning when the poison killed all the cats which were controlling their populations. Also Sandia’s all new Sarge robotic territorial guarding unmanned vehicle (ATV with heat signature and machine guns). The movie with the Arnold Swarznegger “The Governator” with the flying UAVs in the latest terminator genre also played a part in this thought. The Border Patrol, Coast Guard and Military use of the predator UAVs and use of sensors to protect infrastructure also played a part in this concept. All in all it appears that such battlefield techniques appear to be heading us in this direction.

Using the technology against itself and the rats as bait seems to be a great way to save human life during military actions of political will and helps defeat enemy. One might liken such a concept to the Chinese art of Judo using the opponents power to against him or the political definition of Diplomacy, “the art of letting someone else get your way.’

Now then since we can all agree that this idea or concept of using organic decoys makes a lot of sense in the ever-changing battlespace, how do we raise the temperature of rats to mimic that of human beings?

There are several really simple ways to change the heat signature of the rats, even ways to do this without killing them or seriously hurting them. The easiest way without using genetic manipulation and using the KISS Method would be to simply feed them something, which would temporarily increase their body temperatures.

http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/query.fcgi?cmd=Retrieve&db=PubMed&list_uids=2309941&dopt=Abstract ,

This might be the best way because as the rats got closer and closer the effect would of the food would wear off and then all of a sudden they would all disappear, thus putting terror and fear into the enemy as they can no longer find the invading forces. Where did they go, did they hide in a cave, go into a tent, which is hiding them from radar? Did they get in a vehicle? Where? Then they might send out a searching recon team, which could be immediately taken out, meaning the must send another to see what happen to them as once they are gone communication will no longer be available. Meanwhile why they are looking they will be communicating with those in charge whose position is now given away. Such a trick would be aggravating to the enemy because then the signatures would appear and then disappear, meaning, where did they go, meaning enemy must go on high alert and that means more motion and activity from enemy, including communication, movement, fear and action thus giving away information and locations. As this occurs the enemy has one more unknown to deal with prior to the electronic attack as we gather information from the enemy. Our enemy is hesitant, in fear and giving away all of it’s locations and communication sources.

If we sent the rats in several large boxes which opened with a timer or were the doors of the boxes were made of food themselves, then they would eat themselves out of the box and and then proceed to look for more food. We would time the thickness of the door made of food to when you wanted to launch the attack. As studying the time to eat the door with 1000 rats could be easily studied in advance. By using this thought process therefore the delivery aircraft could fly in under cover of weather or other temporary diversion and return and will be no where near when the rats finally got out of the box. Thus even more baffling to the enemy since there are no support vehicles, aircraft or other devices in the area. Just what appears to be lots of troops without support heading their way.

How do we keep the rats traveling in the direction we wish? Well a couple of ideas here. First lets not forget the story of the dogs used to deliver hand grenades to the enemy. The masters would say go fetch and attack and the dogs would run towards the enemy, but all the gun fire and chaos would scare the dogs and then they would return to their owners? Whoops?

First there are a couple of ways to do this. One is to put a bad smell upwind by way of single mission UAVs, delivering a smell bomb, warning the rats to go the other way. Or put positive smells, generally food up wind so they travel in the direction of food. One way to do this is to use several box drops of food a few days in advance upwind towards the enemy by way of UAV. Or have CIA operatives in country dropping positive smell bombs. Then another box several miles away towards the target again and they would smell it and go to it. And in that box the food would have in it:

http://mdma.net/baclofen/

Then another box even further away with the ingredients, which cause increased body temps once again. The rats will move, disappear, reappear closer, then disappear and then move and reappear, thus looks like troop movements, which do not exist, perfect decoy?

If we drop off 20,000 rats some with electronic pulse devices strapped on them in 20 different locations we can over whelm the enemy, wake up the communication and start movement and then attack after just prior to the coordinated attack we send our an electronic attack to kill the communication and electronics of the enemy. All targets are found and locked, game over. RATS’D. Recon Animal Territorial Sensor Decoys.

I was looking online for some dental insurance for me and my family. It is super important to have not only medical but dental and vision plans as well. Standard dental insurance is expensive for me and my family, however I discovered that I could purchase a dental discount family individual insurance plan at a very affordable rate, with vision we are looking at about forty dollars a month. That is not too bad for nice discounts on our dental work and our glasses (three of the six of us wear them). I appreciate companies that take time to negotiate great prices for their clients.

A lot of people are not aware that there are discount dental insurance plans available. Instead they feel as if they cannot afford traditional dental insurance then they are out of luck. However dental discount family individual insurance plans help people who cannot afford regular dental plans, or simply need a supplemental insurance plan have an affordable option for their insurance. You see, dental work is very expensive, and every little bit helps when it comes to discounts and other programs. It is highly recommended that you have a dental plan of some sort because you simply never know when you might need it.

Personal coaching is a term that has become incredibly familiar over the last eight years. The term performance coaching first became preferred in the USA where, together with Neuro Linguistic Programming, it became part of a new and improved incredible wave of incredibly proactive therapy techniques. Change your attitude with Life Coaching in London from Easily Achieve.

In many ways both Coaching and Neuro Linguistic Programming are an answer against certain factors of the person-centred therapy movement, in particular Human-Centred Counselling. A problem of the humanistic therapy approach is that it is profoundly reactive and not highly proactive. Although this works wonderful with some clients, with others long periods of no exit in sight or low return for time and effort occur. Life coaching and Neuro Linguistic Programming are both humanistic in stance, spending time on improving a customers smiles rather than jumping into the minefields of childhood, as in traditional psychology. Life coachings emphasis is, however, deliberately proactive and their to resolve your problems.

Coaching is not about telling the coaching customer what to do. This is a common misconception. Some success coaches are fairly successful in their business careers and then make the cross over to personal coaching, thinking that they will only be required to share their pearls of super success and wisdom with the life coaching client. This is more like mentoring a person in a specific environment. Performance coaching is instead about life as a collective.

Link together the two of man’s main quests and you’re sure to unmask a craze we customarily term a sportsbook bets location. Well, what could be more imaginative? Visualize a crowd of lads clapping to support any favorite local club, and almost regularly antes will be proclaimed going with the rumpus. So as to catch a bit of the delights, on-lookers will typically essay to conjecture who will prevail in the upcoming tournament. In the end, this eventually turns into a little affable tournament known as sportsbook bets location.

Conceded that it might well appear to be addiction prone, note, however, that wagering sportsbooks is, in reality, purely an amusing entertainment and to connect with your fellow sports devotees. Here, you can risk a an insignificant quantity of lucre and yet enjoy an amazing time. Here’s a select number of hints to get you started wagering sportsbooks.

In order to bet, you’d be well advised to go to a sportsbook bets location, which is a place that accepts sportsbook bets location. In the U.S.A., there’s currently a total of no less than four states where everybody can do wagering sportsbooks legitimately, but illegally you may do it practically anywhere providing you can discover a bookie and you happen to be of age. On the list of track-and-field events you can bet on are pro plus college football + basketball, pro baseball and hockey, plus horse and dog racing. Punters may wager on the comprehensive tally of a game or fight, when exactly an opponent will be vanquished, and even if a given tossed coin in a game or fight comes out either heads or tails.

The sportsbook setup confide in the maths make it easier for you come to a decision which club you are confident will prevail. Primarily, there’s chances, or leverage pertaining to a disadvantaged lineup that is presumed to be beaten by x number points. Evidently, this constitutes the bookie’s methodology of offering evenhanded bets for a Sports Book. To take an example, a customer might bet money on a competitor that is presumed to be beaten and and yet profit from the bet providing the lineup is actually defeated by x number of points.

We’ll find many classes of wagers: straight bets, where you’ll simply specify the contestant you guess is the likeliest to prevail or take a licking, teaser lays, and plenty more, the straight bets being the most typical in wagering sportsbooks.

So why not have a stab at it, and enjoy the fun at one fell swoop? But determine that you won’t get overpowered and throw away your entire pension plan on a conceit! If you don’t, you’ll probably find yourself feeling sorry for yourself all life long!

1.To have your needs met.

No matter how legitimate you feel they are, or how obligated you feel the other party is to you, it isn’t a requirement, and sometimes isn’t even possible. Learn to meet your own needs!

2.To feel good about everything all the time.

You can survive negative emotions (they don’t last long), and taking your emotional temperature all the time is counter-productive.

3.To be the center of the universe.

There are always other people, and other wills to consider. Be willing to be the trailer sometimes, not the main attraction. It isn’t always about you.

4.To have your expectations met.

The lower your expectations, in fact, the better you’re likely to feel, because then you can only be happily surprised. Deal with intention, not expectations. How you intend to be, and act; not how you expect things to be, or others to act. You can experience great joy planning a trip. When it doesn’t live up to your expectations, be glad you had the planning process! As Eisenhauer (US president) said, planning is useless, but necessary.

5.To dish out what you don’t want to get back.

Self-fulfilling prophecies are all too often true. If you’re bitter and cynical and expect the worst, that’s likely what you’re going to get. If you expect the best from others, that’s also what you’re likely to get.

6.Justice.

Yes, it’s supposedly one of your inalienable rights, but that’s not always what you’ll get in real life. Bad things do happen to good people. However, quite often if you look back on events, you will see they worked out for the best in the long run. While life is not always fair, there is a sort of rough justice out there. It takes perspective, however …

7.To lie and sleep well at night.

Authenticity has its own rewards, one of them being that you can look in the mirror and like the person you look at.

8.To judge and criticize others and feel good about yourself.

When we judge others, we’re asking for the same in return. It’s often allied to perfectionism, which is a formula designed to make you miserable. Demanding perfection of yourself or anyone else is a sure-fire way to be unhappy.

9.Unconditional love.

Even Freud said the only true love was that of a mother for her son (he being a son, of course, to a mother.) Aside from that there are always “conditions” to mortal love and that’s just something you’ll have to deal with.

10.To not be bored.

Your boredom is in your own hands, or rather in your own brain. You must keep generating new experiences and challenges for yourself, and learn to look at old things with new eyes. Your brain needs just the same workout as your body does. Studies are showing we can keep generating new cells and new connections throughout our lifetime WITh the right stimulation.

New toys and new playmates must constantly be sought! Get out of your field, and out of your element often enough to keep yourself interested. It’s up to you!
