Tropical Depression, Storm and Hurricane Ernesto
Apparently this year we have plenty of Hispanic Hurricane Names. Which makes sense because Mexico and Central America due to flooding caused by Hurricanes killed more people there then in the United States with Hurricanes Katrina and Rita.The 2005 Tropical Hurricane Season was a big one with lots of record breaking and the 2006 Atlantic Tropical Hurricane Season is already off to a big start and we are already on the “E’s” and this year it is Ernesto and next comes Flore

Upon visiting my friends in their newly purchased second home, away from the cold Midwestern winter, I was left with many questions. What is it like to live in 2 locales? Is it so much fun like constant vacations? Or is it double the work? The housework? Social life? Logistics? Here are some answers from different styles of lives in multiple locations:

The Retired Couple.

My friends, the snowbirds, who are retired, fly to Florida for the winter and appear to love the life in 2 locations; over the years they had created two entirely separated lifestyles two households, 2 golf-club memberships, warm climate wardrobes and new friends for the winter months.

Their friends and family visit with them often for holidays and long weekends. During the summer they come back to the Midwest, sun-tanned already from Florida sun. Their comments: “Living in two places while you retired have the benefits of both worlds. We don’t remember life in the snow and ice, nor do we want to.”

The Working Couple.

Tina and Josh were gracious enough to give me some inside look into their ‘double life’: Tina is a writer: I can work from everywhere, providing I have my lap-top and electricity…why would I stay in the heat of Arizona during the summer? Josh did not mind the heat, he is an expert in internet marketing, and he too can live anywhere and work from home. Now they live in Minneapolis on the lake during the summer. “My wife is so happy here, in the summer. This makes me a happy man.”

The Single Executive.

My neighbor Sheila, single in late 30’s, was promoted to an executive position in a national corporation. Now she is traveling between N.Y. and LA. She is spending two weeks in each location and she loves it. After every trip she gets ‘a travel day’, that is a day off from work to rejuvenate before resuming her job at the next location respectively.

Sheila says: “my friends in LA have very little time to socialize. By moving away half the time to NY, I am ‘forced’ to have quality time with my LA friends and find new interesting contacts in NY. I am dating in both locations and curious to see what will happen next...”

Family with school-age kids.

Now that is a challenge. The couple of families I’ve interviewed have young pre school children. They act like the retired couple; snowbirds style; one family spends summers in NY and winters in Palm Spring, CA. They registered their kids to 2 preschools, have 2 sets of baby sitters, 2 households and 2 Pediatricians, of course. They plan to continue the Bi-Coastal lifestyle till the oldest child will go to first grade.

Don't Get Banned by Google
There are many Black Hat techniques that people use to try and influence Googles ranking of their sites, the simple thing to remember is that THEY DO NOT help your rankings, are simply a waste of your time and sooner or later will lead to a Google ban for your site. Sure there are sites that use these techniques and are getting away with it but they will eventually get penalised as Google always manages to find them eventually.As I said please avoid using these technique

The Top 10 Myths about the Virginia Tech Massacre

What double-locations home-owners have in common?
• Feeling of adventure and anticipation before ‘coming home’ to the ‘other’ location.
• After being away for a while, there are some feelings of alienation, estrangement and separation from each home.
• All report of being tired of air travel, airports and carrying luggage back and forth.
• Emotional consideration: social life becomes an important issue. Missing the friends/family in one location does not seem to be healed or made-up by having new friends. “You don’t replace people you love. You just keep missing them…”
• Missing personal, special occasions, such as birthdays, anniversaries of family and friends.
• Most ‘Double-lifers’ reported missing hobbies, collections, books, art and things they have in one of the locations.

Life in multiple locations is fun and fulfilling for the people who were willing to be interviewed. For some this is a dream come true with many years ‘of hard work and money savings. For others life in multiple locations has been an unplanned and welcomed surprise. In any case, to repeat my question: is it double the fun or life divided? The answer: is yes.

The latest Google update nicknamed 'Jagger', has, and is, causing major distress to web site owners the world over. As with most Google updates there is an initial period of movement in ranking position. This can be, and often is, quickly followed by a cavernous empty feeling in the pit of your stomach.

Your web site is the key to your success on the Internet. You can use your web site to build your brand, increase sales, generate more leads, slash costs, and much more. In fact, you probably have very specific goals that your web site is helping you to achieve for your company.

Many people are hearing for the first time about VOIP. VOIP, or voice over internet protocol, is a method of talking on the phone through the use of the internet. It works by taking analog audio signals and turns them into digital data which can then be transmitted over the web. Sounds confusing? Really, it is simple and very interesting.
