Hey,

Josh here from Investor Wealth Academy sitting
29 stories above the glitter of Times Square.

Lou and I are in New York this weekend on
business and we were both super excited about
some of the things going on in the real estate
industry right now.

More on that later.

Over the last few years we have really seen
extraordinary success in our own and our
Mentoring students’ businesses.

But, our success has not been because of lucky
breaks or the people we know, and that goes for
our students, too!

Did you know that a 1% change in your business
can create a 100% difference in your success?

Yes 1%!

Think about it.

If you do what you’ve always done, you’re going to get
what you have always gotten!

That’s a law of life and business.

Lou and I strive to make a 1% change in our business
every day - to become better, do more, improve our systems.

That’s the “secret” formula for becoming successful in
anything you choose. Whether you want to become a black
belt in karate, an Olympic athlete, or a multi-millionaire
real estate mogul the same success principles apply.

Strive everyday to become 1% better,and I guarantee it
will not take long before you’ve achieved unbelievable
results!

~ Don’t be a victim of your circumstances!

~ Write down your business goals so you can
see daily what it is you want to achieve!

~ At the end of each day write down what
you’ve done that day to change for the better!

~ Continue to educate yourself on a regular basis!

I buy every book, tape set, course, and bootcamp that I
think will help me become better, because I know that even
if I only receive one great idea or technique from each
product, I’ve more than received my money’s worth!

Have a great weekend and remember…

A 1% change in your business can create a 100%
difference in your success.

Best of success and abundance,

When Motorola decided to come out with a cell phone that broke all the previous conventions and stood out unmistakably from all others, they succeeded admirably. Motorola’s RAZR V3, generally just referred to as a RAZR, is considered by many in the cell phone industry to be the visual epitome of advanced cell phone technology, and pioneers in the forefront of cell phone design. One thing that nobody can ignore the first time they see a RAZR is how incredibly thin it is. At only 1.4 cm thick and 5.3 cm wide, (to give you an idea of how small that is, it is the same width as a normal credit card) and a measly 9.8 cm long, it is one of the smallest and slimmest available anywhere. That distinct look is one of the major reasons the RAZR continues to increase in popularity.

In addition to its unique one of a kind style, and extremely popular appearance, the RAZR cell phone is not all flash. Motorola made sure that their product would still remain competitive in all other aspects with all other cell phones. The RAZR is still competitive in functions and performance to go along with its noticeable design innovation. The RAZR is equipped with a digital camera, along with a quality zoom that allows you to capture any moment that catches your fancy. The Motorola company brags about the RAZR user’s ability to watch MPEG video clips in bright colors, and that sound comes through a high quality polyphonic speaker sound. Even though the screen is so small, Motorola still included 3 D graphics to make for an optimal picture experience. A major part of the reason that the RAZR has been able to maintain such a strong level of technology despite its diminutive size is because of its new “Bluetooth” technology. Apparently this is along the lines of wireless technology, which is what allows such a little phone to do so much while remaining small.

Motorola has really put together a winner with this one. All too often when a cell phone company tries to present the public with some new flashy, good-looking design the phone is all flash and severely lacking in the substance category. Then all too many consumers are upset when they realize they’ve dropped a large amount of money on this flashy little thing that just does not live up to the hype. The RAZR is a quality phone that holds up to its gorgeous appearance with equal quality in usage.

You need to make a backup copy of your favourite DVD movie and keep the original quality? Not a problem if the original disk is single-layered, in this case the only thing you have to do is to get a blank DVD-R and make a copy. The difficulty is, most movies are actually recorded on double-layered disks and therefore are impossible to copy to single-layer DVD without loss of quality. The ideal solution here would be to make a full copy on a double-layered DVD-R. But, unfortunately, this solution is only available for those who have relatively new DVD recorders, and if you have an older model it won’t be possible for you to create double-layer backup copy. Of course, there is always an option to buy new model of DVD recorder, but why getting a new one if the old one still works?

So, the best solution for backing up your DVD is to use two single-layered disks.

It will take two additional programs to do so: DVD Shrink (to split the movie on two disks) and DVD Decrypter (this utility allows bypassing copy protection measures and make a full copy of DVD; also this program is able to burn recordable DVDs).

The only drawback of such method is that only the actual movie will be copied and interactive menus probably will be sacrificed. On the other hand, this method is completely free and doesn’t require any commercial software.

Ok, let’s begin.

1. Copy DVD to hard drive

1.1 Insert DVD that you want to back up in the DVD drive.

1.2 Run DVD Decrypter

1.3 Make sure that in the “Mode” pop-up menu the “File” checkbox is checked, activate it if it is not.

1.4 In the “Source” menu, select the source DVD drive (the one with the disk to be copied inside).

1.5 Make sure there is enough free space on your hard-drive, the required amount can be viewed in the bottom right corner of the program window.

1.6 In the “Destination” section, press on the button with folder icon on it and specify a target folder where the copy will be stored.

1.7 Press the large button with hard-drive picture on it. The copying process will begin.

1.8 If everything is fine, you’ll see the following message:

1.9 Close DVD Decrypter.

2. Preparing the first disk for the recording.

2.1 Run DVD Shrink.

2.2 Press the “Open Files” button and select the folder that contains DVD copy from the previous step. Select the “VIDEO_TS” sub-folder and press OK.

2.3 Wait while the program analyzes the contents of DVD.

2.4 Press the “Re-Author” button. In the right frame you’ll see the contents of your disks split into different groups: Menus (all animated menus from the disk), Main Movie (movie itself) and, probably Extra (advertising materials and bonuses). The contents of each frame can be previewed in the bottom left frame so you can decide what to keep and what to discard.

2.5 Drag (with your mouse) contents from the Main Movie section in the right frame (DVD Browser) to the top left frame (Re-Authored DVD).

2.6 Select “Compression settings” tab in the right frame.

2.7 In the pop-up menu in “Video” section, select “No Compression”.

2.8 Note the bar on top. The green color indicates which part of the movie will fit to standard single-layered disk, and the red color indicates the part that won’t fit. But the most interesting thing here is the number at the end of the green scale, usually 4 664MB. This is the capacity of standard DVD recordable disk.

2.9 Now we have to select the part of the movie which will be on the first disk

2.10 Press “Set StartEnd Frames” in the top right corner of the “Re-Authored DVD” frame.

The selection window for the first and last frames of the movie will appear. For the first disk we need to change the position of the last frame in the “End Frame” section. This can be done by using slider and scrolling buttons (this will allow selecting last frame with the accuracy within one second) or by using “Chapter” drop-down list (this way allows which chapter of the movie will be first). It’s better to preserve chapters and use the second method.

2.11 When selecting chapters or frames, try to keep the “Total Size” value as close to 4.464MB as possible, but not exceeding it. When you finish selecting it, remember the last chapter on this disk or the time for the last frame and record it somewhere. This information will be necessary for the creation of the second disk.

2.12 Press OK. If the red bar is gone and only the green one remains, you’ve done everything right.

3. Recording first disk

3.1 Press the “Backup!” button.

3.2 In the “Select backup target” drop-down menu select “Image File and burn with DVD Decrypter“.

3.3 In the “Select target image file” field specify the folder that will contain temporary image file. Make sure that there is enough space by using “Space Required” & “Space Available in Folder” items that are located below.

3.4 Press OK.

3.5 After pressing OK the temporary image file will be created. The window will appear, allowing you to see what part of the movie is being processed at this moment and the estimation of total time required. Usually this process takes no longer than five minutes. After the image file is complete, DVD Shrink will close and DVD Decrypter will start.

3.6 After DVD Decrypter has started, insert a blank DVD recordable disk in the recorder.

3.7 Select writing speed in the “Settings” section and DVD recorder in “Destination”.

3.8 If you want to test the disk after recording to be completely confident, check “Verify” in the same section.

3.9 After all settings are set, press the big button with HDD and disk picture on it (write). If the disk is not empty, the program will produce the following error:

3.10 In this case, change DVD recordable medium to the blank one or, if the disk is rewritable, press “Yes”. In this case everything on the disk will be erased.

3.11 After the program have finished recording and verifying, you can start to create second disk. Exit DVD-Decrypter.

4. Preparing the second disk for the recording.

4.1 Repeat all steps from 2.1 to 2.7

4.2 Press the “Set StartEnd Frames” button.

4.3 Now you have to set the position for the first frame instead of the last one. In the “Start Frame” section, set the slider to the value that you memorized during the recording of the first disk. Alternatively, if you selected to split disks by chapters, select the next chapter after the one that was last on the first disk. For example, if the first disk had chapter 11 as the last one, select chapter 12.

4.4 Press “OK”.

4.5 Make sure there is no red bar on top. If the red bar exists, try repeating steps from 4.2

4.6 The second disk usually has some space left, so you can add some bonus materials to it. These materials can be previewed in the preview window. If you find anything worth keeping, drag them with your mouse to the same place where the original movie is.

4.7 Select the “Compression Settings” tab.

4.8 Position mouse pointer on the disk title in the “Re-Authored DVD” frame.

4.9 In the “Video” drop-down menu of the “Compression Settings” frame, set “No Compression”.

5. Recording second disk

Repeat all steps from 3.1 to 3.7

Congratulations. Now you have two disks containing the copy of your favorite movie with the same original quality. And the only money you have spent is the cost of blank DVDs.

Today’s technology has made setting up security precautions such as security cameras a cinch! You no longer need to be a millionaire to set up one. You could even install one yourself! Security cameras provide a means for its owner to watch over his or her propery from the safety and convenience of any area he chooses. This type of system is a great deterrent to thievery and unwanted entry. Most organizations that have sensitive items or are off limits to the general public employ these cameras to help keep their places safe.

Purchasing and implementing such a system may save your business from the terrors of illegal entry. Investment in such could save you a whole lot of trouble.

Before purchasing a system, you will want to consider the following factors.

Your needs
Study your needs. The type of security measures installed will depend on your specific security needs. For example how large is the area you would like covered? How many cameras will it take to monitor this area? You must make sure the security camera system you will purchase can accommodate enough slots for expansion.

Do you need audio too? Some camera systems have audio recording equipment as well so you can not only see what happens, but hear it as well. This is important in cases when you would like everything documented. However, this may be costly. Many establishments only require video records of their security.

Also, you must ascertain whether you need to have your security cameras record in color or black and white. Color cameras are, of course, more sophisticated and show a clearer picture. However, they tend to be pricey. Color cameras might also not work in low-light situations.

Consider the location of the cameras. Will the location be hard to set up a wiring system in? In that case, you may want to consider wireless security camera systems. However, these cameras must be in a place that is conducive to high quality broadcast. There must be no interference. They can, though, be moved around the area. They are a bit more flexible than their fixed-wire cousins.

Will the camera system be for outdoor purposes? Cameras that monitor outdoor locations need special weatherproof housings and may not be recommended for extreme temperatures and various elements. Also those that may be vandalized must be protected against such.

Also, you must take in consideration the lighting for an area. If your camera cannot record a scene due to bad lighting, you will end up with muddy images that won’t help in your surveillance activities. Choose a security camera that has a good sensitivity to light. Also, try to illuminate such areas with external lighting.

You must consider where the power sources will be located. Make sure they are well protected against the elements and from tampering.

Consider the available methods for recording the images. You may use a variety of backup media. And with the advent of computer storage media, even the use of hard disks, compact discs, and DVDs can prove to be an inexpensive way to store your data.

Installing a Security Camera System
Most home security cameras require little wiring, but installation differs according to model. Here are the basic steps:

1. Survey the area to be monitored. Follow the instructions/manual that comes with your security camera product. Install the camera at a proper distance from the area to be surveyed. Cameras vary in the distances from which they focus, so it would do well to pay notice to such.

2. Secure the camera using proper mounts, etc. Make sure that if the camera you are to install should not be moved, its placing should be secure and tamper proof.

4. Connect the camera to the monitor according to the manufacturer’s directions. Make sure the wiring is as hidden and as secure as possible. This will make it harder for vandals and thieves from damaging your wiring.

5. Fine tune your system. Make sure you optimize the images you receive from the camera. Set a maintenance plan and fail safe plans to employ in case your cameras break down.

6 Organize an archival system according to your needs. Backing up and recording your images are implemented here.

Voice over Internet Protocol or VoIP, is one of today’s hottest and most confusing new technologies. Because of all the confusion and complexity, Teleco has written this page to inform and educate you. We hope you find it helpful.
VoIP consists of 2 major technologies….

Making Calls Over the Internet

This is the most common use of VoIP. It is also called VoIP lines or trunks. If you have a high speed internet connection, like cable modem, DSL, or T1, you can use your high speed connection to make phone calls on the internet. There are many companies like Vonage, Lingo, and VoiceWing (Verizon) that offer VoIP lines. Cable companies also offer VoIP lines, but only if you have their cable modem service. So, to boil it down, instead of getting your dial tone from Verizon over the traditional phone network, you get your dial done from your internet company. Any phone system made (even an old one) can take advantage of VoIP lines. You do not need an IP based (IP PBX) or even IP compatible phone system.

The advantage of VoIP lines are:

Lower Bills. Usually you pay a flat monthly rate and all your calls in the USA and Canada are free
You can take your number with you. If you move around the corner or across the country with VoIP you can keep your existing phone number even if you move to a different area code.
Multiple area codes. You can get phone numbers from different area codes or even overseas numbers.
Portability. You can move the VoIP router with you and take your service easily with you. You can even set it up to use your laptop and a WiFi connections to make calls from anywhere you can get high speed internet access.
Features. VoIP lines come with Caller ID, Call Forwarding, and lots of other great features.
The problems with VoIP lines are:

Quality is not as good as traditional phone service, but it’s close and getting better all the time.
Set up can be very challenging.
Depending on how fast your internet connection is, it may be possible to make several calls at the same time over the internet. However, the more calls you make at once the slower your internet connection will be and the poorer the sound quality of your calls will be.
Faxes, modem, and alarm systems don’t work well over VoIP lines. Sometimes they won’t work at all.
If you need a lot of lines, the cost of the high speed internet connection may outweigh the savings.
There are some minor technical issue using VoIP lines and Automated Attendants and Voice Mail systems.
If your internet access goes down, all your phone lines go down too.
VoIP lines normally don’t work if the power does out, but you can set up back up batteries.
Right now the Government does not tax VoIP service. If that changes VoIP may not be price effective anymore.
Connection Remote Workers or Remote Offices….Voice over IP Stations.

This is the 2nd major use of VoIP. You can “connect” to your office phone system from anywhere there is a high speed internet connection. Using a special VoIP telephone or a Laptop “soft phone” you can work from home or a hotel and it’s just like being in your office. You have access to all your phone system features including the intercom, paging, all outside lines, voice mail, and even your extension can ring on your VoIP phone. Best of all, you don’t lose the use of your computer. 1 high speed internet connection can run your VoIP phone and your PC at the same time.

With this same technology, you can link multiple office together into one seamless phone system. You can even share lines or the one voice mail system. You can even run your entire phone system over your office LAN or WAN without separate voice wiring (often called Pure IP or IP Based telephone systems), though that is very expensive and complicated and is best suited for very large companies with full time IT staffs.

Voice over IP is very exciting and more and more people are using it everyday. You need an expert to help you understand if VoIP is right for you. The experts at http://www.teleco4.com can help people in the New York and New Jersey area migrate to VoIP and sell and service NEC and Toshiba business telephone systems.

Surveillance cameras are being used every where these days, all the malls and almost all stores and small shops have installed surveillance cams to stop thefts and burglaries. You must have probably heard of the net of cams in the Las Vegas casinos, yes without cameras the surveillance staff won’t be 1/10th as effective.

Taking the cue from the commercial segment many companies introduced home security camera a few years back, but, back then only the rich could afford the expensive home security camera systems. However, nowadays with development of technology, as home security camera is getting cheaper more and more people are able to afford them. Yes, today even a $30 cam can be turned into a home security camera, it’s no more a rich only option.

When selecting a home security camera, make sure it can take clear pictures in the radius you want to set it up. Systems like analogue closed circuit television may run cheap but it’s not worth the money. It saves recorded coverage to tapes which are not only expensive in the long run but will also take up a lot of space.

With the advent of internet and like I said earlier, development of technology, we have cheap yet good quality home security camera available that send live feeds to the internet and save coverage at a secured location. You can either watch the feds live or browse through the saved data at any point of time. Install two-three home security camera in a room depending on how big the room is and you can watch what is going on in your house from 5 miles or 5,000 miles away.

For those on a very tight budget, there are the fake home security camera which are very much like the original ones and some even swivel on their axis like the original ones but this strategy is only effective in preventing the crime rather than catching the crime.

However, if you aren’t on a budget you should go for tiny cams which can be hidden behind or within objects and are hard to find. These cams when combined with the right software can give you the perfect home security camera system. On the other hand if you want to make it clear to the burglars that your house is not a good choice, install a large cam, a must do for people installing fake cameras, at a location where it can easily be seen.

Internet…. It entered our lives not so long ago, but made a revolutionary change in the lives of all the mankind. Internet brought a new quality of communication, information, services, etc into the world.

It helps to sell and buy, communicate and find soul mates; it provides you with essay help and entertains when you feel sad. Its missions are countless. It is our reliable companion in life. As students we order custom essays on the net, as grown ups we use it every hour in our work, older people use internet instead of books, guidebooks, maps, etc. We can’t ignore the influence of the internet on our lives. Some say it is negative, the others state it is positive. But it is not all black and white. In this article my aim is to discuss influence of the Internet on person’s mind. Internet is distinguished by a high speed of information exchange. That is why we have a completely new level of relations between a person and a computer, between two people with computer’s help.

We tend to perceive greater amount of information more quickly and we discover new capabilities of our brains, a completely new perception of the old information. Computer specialists have more logically structured mental processes. It enables them to express their ideas more clearly and with more precision, they are more self –organized. One of the most important functions of the Internet is personal communication on – line. On – line communication has its own peculiarities: it is not an epistolary genre, but it is not a real – to – life conversation. It is absolutely new kind of communication combining the both. An opportunity to have a talk with a remote interlocutor in real time mode affords to carry out individual psychotherapy. Virtual communication has its own specific characteristics. The exchange of written messages which substitutes verbal communication is a comparatively slow process. A person has time to ponder on his thoughts and to shape them appropriately. Thus he loses a lot of useful information while typing and editing the text. Though there is an opinion that the exchange of information becomes more intense as for its contents and size. Lately there has been a lot fuss about the so – called Internet addiction. Most of such discussions agree on the irretrievable harm of the Internet addiction. But we suggest not being hasty with conclusions. Let’s consider the issue. We can get used to anything: to warm rain, Mexican soap operas, essay writing every weekend. We also can get used to the Internet. You get used to neutral things with no encoding, zombing or programming qualities. They influence you in a natural way like a tasty home pie your mother baked for you and you got used to it. It is up to you whether you will get addicted to something or not. It depends on your personal tastes, world outlook, and your senses. Otherwise everyone will be drinking coffee, watching Mexican soap operas, writing essays every weekend or getting lost in the Internet. Even those who claim all this to be a kind of drugs will be doing the same things. That is why comparing Internet with drug addiction is groundless and people should be careful when drawing such parallels.

Can the place with many friends, with a lot of interesting news, where I can find a lot of sensational information do me harm? Can the place containing all the works of art, grand libraries, music, movies, thrilling games do me harm? Surely, not. Will I love this place? No doubt, I will. Will I aspire to visit this place as often as possible? Yes, I will want to come there again and again. Why then everyone gets agitated and worried, if this place is called Internet? What does it change? Internet is a whole world, where your dreams come true, where there are no borders between countries and continents, where you need neither a visa, no passport. I love this world. I got used to it and I miss when I am without it. And it is natural to aspire to everything what is dear to me.
