The Real Estate Investor’s Credibility Kit
The first reaction to most people when you tell them that you are a real estate investor is to look at you with a bit of suspicion and wonder. They wonder if “real estate investor” really means “freelancer” or “doesn’t really have a job.” Then, once they realize that you really do have a profitable business venture going, they start to wonder what exactly it is that you do and how you know how to do it.
With your friends and family it’s fine for them to wonder a bit about your business and even have some suspicions. However, when you are looking to transact business with someone you want them to have enough information about you, your skills, and your experience for them to decide that they want to do business with you. One way you can show prospective clients and business partners that you know what you are doing is to create a small investor’s credibility kit for yourself.
Your investor’s credibility kit doesn’t have to be something you pay a fortune to have created. It doesn’t need to be professionally printed on glossy paper. It simply has to show people your experience, and to help them to decide to work with you. It needs to show people that you can do what you say that you can do.
The first thing you credibility kit needs to contain is a short biography about your company. If your real estate investment business is new, then a short biography about yourself and your relevant experience will suffice. Keep it to one page and try to keep the information as applicable as possible.
If you have attended real estate seminars, trainings, boot camps, classes, etc… include a copy of your certificate of completion along with your bio. If the vendor didn’t give you one, print one up yourself and send it to them and ask that they sign it for you.
If you have bought and sold property already, then you want to get testimonials from any of your previous clients and investors who have agreed to be references for you. If you have not yet bought or sold any property, you could get testimonials from previous or current employers as to your character. In addition, you will want some names and phone numbers of references that people can call to check up on you.
Your investor’s credibility kit should be given to anyone you are approaching about conducting business with. Just the simple act of creating it shows people that you are serious about your business and that you can do what you are telling them that you can.

What would happen of you cut one of the cables in a post tensioned floor in a building?
I am an electrician by trade and I do a lot of core drilling to penetrate floors between levels in a building. Someone suggested to me that I should always check with the building engineer before I drill to be sure it is not a post tensioned floor I am drilling through. They explained that if I cut a cable in the post tensioned floor, the cable could come flying out of the side of the building... any truth to this???
practically nothing , i mean the floor won't collapse , what will happen is that the Bending moment will increase & a deflection occures , it won't collapse just because we take a large factor of safety almost 2 times when we design such slabs.
about the cable coming flying , actually i don't know i wasn't told so , besides i didn't have a training with a post tensioned beams or slabs.
but in order to make such a cable tensioned it'l pulled by a hydraulic jack & then wedged so that it won't loose it's tension.
so it's under tension & when u cut through it when it's like that , i just don't know .... it may fly as they told u , but frankly i don't think it will .......that doesn't mean u can cut it anyway.

Toyota Cars Ready To Roll In NASCAR's Nextel Cup 2007 Season
Toyota cars and the National Association for Stock Car Auto Racing (NASCAR) made an announcement to confirm Toyota's expansion into the 2007 NASCAR Nextel Cup and Busch Series. Of the various Toyota cars, the Camry model was the chosen automobile for participating in a field of competition.
After three years of Toyota competing as part of the NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series, NASCAR Chairman and CEO Bill France commented, "Toyota's entry into the NASCAR Nextel Cup Series and the NASCAR Busch Series is good for drivers, teams and the fans. This move provides for even more intense competition on the track between drivers and manufacturers, which will provide more excitement and fan interest," he continued. "Toyota's entry also provides more options for drivers and teams, which will increase the competition between manufacturers.
The 2007 year will mark several milestones for Toyota cars, including the company's 50th anniversary in America. As the golden anniversary occurs, so will Toyota's venture into the NASCAR Nextel and Busch series racing. While Toyota drivers and teams have proven to be championship competitors and winners in other series, the manufacturer anxiously awaits to see if the Toyota cars will enjoy the same fate as they branch out into new NASCAR territory. "If you want to compete against the best, in America that means NASCAR," admits Dave Illingworth, senior vice president, chief planning and administrative officer for Toyota Motor Sales, USA., Inc.
A separate announcement, made in late January 2006, detailed the three teams that would be competing behind the wheel of Toyota cars. Bill Davis Racing, Team Red Bull and Michael Waltrip Racing will be the teams sporting the Toyota Camry as the 2007 season kicks off at the Daytona 500 next February. According to TMS corporate manager of marketing communications Kim McCullough, "The response to Toyota's involvement in the Craftsman Truck Series has been very positive, and we look forward to building on the acceptance at the next levels - in both Nextel Cup and Busch racing."
Michael Waltrip, who owns one of the teams to be operating Toyota cars next season, is a Daytona 500 winner times two. Nearly 10 years ago, he formed a race team that was primarily known for it's involvement in the Busch Series. In recent years, however, the team began participating in the Nextel Cup Series on a limited basis and plans to compete regularly during the 2007 season. In fact, plans for ‘Waltrip Racing World' was announced that would feature a high-tech race shop boasting over 125,000 square-feet of race shop space, buildings and housing.

Craftsman Tools "not made in USA"?
I realize that most Craftsman hand tools like wrenches ratchets and sockets are still made in the USA which is good. But it seems like everytime I go to Sears I see more and more China and Taiwan stamped on them. For example I exchanged a pair of Handi-Cut cutters for a new pair. The old worn pair was made in the USA and the new ones are China. Another example is the new industrial wrench set and folding prybar they have look impressive but, "made in Taiwan". The quality looks good and probably works well but its not my point. The point is they are slowly going overseas which is sad to see and people here in the US are losing jobs because of it. Anyone else noticing this??
Yes it has been going on for awhile, just seems like Craftsman is really itching to go totally overseas lately. I agree with otto, definitely a greed thing...
"Answers smartass" is wrong. The unions are not to blame. It is corporate greed. They want the highest profit margin available and having the tools outsourced to "offshore companies" achieves that for them. I noticed the loss of USA made items many years ago. I do my level best to not buy items made elsewhere unless I simply cannot find it.

Why rearch is vital when having a hair transplant procedure
My story begins with an account of my very poor hair transplant procedures i had with a very famous UK hair clinic.
When i was 22 young and naive i had my first hair transplant at my local ht clinic in West Yorkshire.
In around the year 1997 i came across an advert in a mens magazine for this clinic, and decided after reading this that the place sounded fantastic. It claimed to be state of the art with experienced surgeons from all around the world, they claimed to be leaders in the field of hair restoration and said that they left other clinics behind. Wow i thought ill have to have a consultation because at this point in time i was struggling to cope with my hair loss, i was only 22 and felt like my whole world was coming to an end and that no one could possibly love me with a bald head. So i telephoned them and arranged a consultation.for the following week.
I arrived for my consultation and was shocked to find that this place was not a state of the art clinic but just three rooms at the rear of an NHS doctors surgery. I was shown into a small room and was told to sit down, a gentlemen told me to remove my hat and looked at my hair( which to be honest was thinning a little but looking back it wasn't actually that bad at this stage). It was obvious i was loosing my hair but i still had plenty left, the man said he could help me and said that i was a perfect candidate for a hair transplant he also said that i would soon have a perfect head of hair again.
I was delighted i asked how much this procedure would cost. He replied that because i would need around 1500 grafts throughout my hair to thicken it back up it would be three thousand five hundred pounds. He then said in a rather pushy tone we are very busy so do you want it or what?. I was a bit taken aback by this but the thoughts of a perfect head of hair were ringing in my ear so i agreed. He then said he would need a deposit of one thousand five hundred by the end of the week and said he would book me in for the surgery the following week and i had to pay the balance then.
That was it there was no mention of any side effects, no mention of any risks, no mention of aftercare, no mention of the surgeons competence or qualifications, experience etc and certainly no mention of a hideous scar to the back of my head.
The whole consultation was over in about 5 minutes, and because i was only 22 young and naive i just thought this was normal and i was very excited. When the day of the surgery arrived i was asked straight away as soon as i sat down for the money, the man then counted it in front of me he looked in a terrible mood. As soon as he had finished counting though he looked up and smiled and escorted me into a small room where a young lady washed my hair, i was then told to sit on a chair in another room that looked like a dental surgery.
I was then asked to sign a consent form and was told not to worry, i was then given an injection in my finger to numb my head and was told to relax and that my head would be numb in no time. The surgeon then came in and started to remove hair from the rear of my head to be placed on the top of my head later, this took about five minutes and didn't hurt at all due to the anesthetic.
He then started inserting the grafts into the top of my head and let me tell you this was the worst pain i have ever had in my life. It started out as just an uncomfortable pain, but after an hour or so it was absolutely excruciating i told the Dr it was really painful, but he just laughed and said it wont be long and told me to think about all the hair i would have. I had no choice but to grin and bear it, it was awful and throughout the five hour operation blood just kept on running down my face and neck it was terrifying but he just kept saying don't panic its normal you`ve just got a sensitive scalp.
When the operation was over i was told i had to get up and go sit in a waiting room for a couple of minutes, to my surprise the doctor then said goodbye and went home leaving me on my own with two female assistants. They told me that my stitches would dissolve on their own in a few weeks and gave me some co codamol for the pain, at this point i didn't even know i had any stitches. They also gave me a letter with aftercare instructions on it which was about half a page long and consisted of washing instructions etc. After about 10 minutes they opened the back door and said goodbye leaving me to drive home dis- orientated and 10 minutes after a five hour operation.
Over the next few weeks i struggled with the pain but i was excited and couldn't wait for my new hair to grow. My head looked very sore and was covered in scabs with little hairs popping out. I was told before the surgery that i was paying for 1500 grafts but to be honest i think i only received about 250 and over the next six months this was confirmed as only a small number of hairs appeared on my head, and i might add they looked very unnatural a bit like dolls hair. The most concerning thing though to me was that i suffered something called shock loss which i have now found out is common but i was not forewarned or told anything about this prior to my surgery.
Shock loss is where the rest of your normal original hair becomes shocked by the new transplants that are placed next to them and fall out leaving you with only the transplanted hairs left this is usually only temporary but in my case was permanent. So in effect i had payed three thousand five hundred pounds for 1500 new hairs, received around 250 new hairs and lost hundreds of old hair. So i was much worse off after the surgery than before i even had the operation( and a lot poorer too). I was now in a situation where i could not even go outside without wearing a hat and i had no choice but to get another hair transplant to add some more hair to my head because i only had about 250 hairs on the top of my head and my confidence was shattered so i began to save up for round two.
In the year 2000 god knows why i returned to the clinic for another consultation they then said i need another 1500 grafts, but because i had been before they said it would only cost one thousand five hundred pounds. They also advised me to take finesteride and said they would give me a twelve months supply for nothing in with the price of the surgery, they told me it would stop any further hair loss and gave me enough tablets to last six months and said i had to come back for the rest when i ran out. I contacted them when i did run out and they refused to give me any.
I had my second surgery later that week which was much the same as the first except this one wasn't painful which just proves that the first operations anesthetic wasn't administered correctly.
Over the next few months though i experienced terrible headaches on a daily basis, not at all like the first transplant and these headaches didn't start to ease until around 8 months after the procedure. At the same time as the headaches i had feelings of numbness to the back of my head which took months to ease, but even to this day i still have a numb part at the rear off my head on the right which i'm told is probably nerve damage. The growth rate was much the same as the first op and now after paying for 3000 hairs at a cost of five thousand pounds i have around 500.
From the year 2000 i have suffered from bouts of mental health problems i.e depression anxiety, panic attacks which have been so serious ive been admitted to hospital, ive had bouts of agoraphobia and have been on numerous types of anti depressants which i am still taking to this day all because off the treatment and results of this clinic. I have also go two seven cm's scars to the back of my head which prevent me from shaving my head and look so ugly i have to keep them covered.
After the surgeon got struck off i took a small amount of comfort in the fact that the clinic would be closed.but after reading the hair loss forums on the net i have to my horror found that they are still around and have many dis satisfied patients they sound like they are the same as ever there are loads and loads of posts on from patients that are about how people have been disfigured, and ripped off by the Norton clinic and their surgeons and unscrupulous salesmen .
Please please if you are thinking of going to this clinic BEWARE, ask to meet former patients and ask loads of questions because if they are the same as when i went you could potentially be making the biggest mistake of your life, take heed from someone who knows from first hand experience
Before having a ht do some research and check out the many different surgeons on all the hair forums a good starting point would be www.hairtransplantexperiences forum, and please don't let travel be the deciding factor because the results good or bad will last a lifetime. Have a look at Doctors websites and have a look at all the negative comments on the Internet simply google the hair clinics name and u will find info
The next section describes an appeal that was set up on a hair loss forum called hairtransplantexperiences.com(formally PB hair) to raise money to help fix my horrible predicament the appeal was called Project Bullitnut.
I am a valued member on all forums giving advice, i always try my best to help people make an educated decision regarding transplants, my goal is to prevent people making the same mistakes as i did and to ensure that they wont regret their ht for years to come like i did with my clinic.
PB and BIGMAC bless their hearts decided to help me by starting a REPAIR BULLITNUT campaign.
They did this off their own backs (as they knew how my situation was destroying my life) with the intention of raising money and encouraging hair transplant clinics to get involved. Which fortunately for me happened very quickly as SHAPIRO MEDICAL GROUP offered almost immediately to do my repair surgery pro which i am absolutely over the moon about and unbelievably grateful. As ive already said i regard them as being world class and one of the very best there is so to get this offer is like a dream come true for me.
PB and BIGMAC set up a pay pal account for donations towards the travel expenses etc and i received lots of donations including:-
1. The hotel paying for by fellow forum member TIM UK
2. The flights for my first trip paying for by another forum member called TUBS
3. The meals on the day were also payed for by a member called NERVOUS NELLY
4. The flights for my second trip were also payed for by SPENCER KOBREN the author and radio host of the bald truth www.thebaldtruth.com/
I also received many donations from other members of all the major hair loss forums including JANNA the head technician at SMG who as helped co ordinate this entire project and has been absolutely fantastic and supportive from the beginning.
SO TO ALL THAT AS BEEN INVOLVED IN THIS I WOULD JUST LIKE TO SAY FROM THE BOTTOM OF MY
HEART THANKYOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The next part of my incredible story to restore my hair and life details my trip to Shapiro Medical Group in the US
Here's the story of my hair loss repair program with Shapiro medical group in Minnesota
I'm going to go into detail to help all newbies and UK patients thinking of going to America
Firstly I live in the UK in West Yorkshire so I booked my flights from Manchester as this was my nearest large airport. I booked my flights with klm airlines who are partners with north west airlines.
Who fly to America regularly from all UK airports.
The flight cost around £450 return (thanks Tubs)and was a one stop connection in Amsterdam before flying to MSP airport at Minneapolis. The flights themselves were very comfortable and even the connection stop at Amsterdam was very easy to do and straight forward. To be honest this was a major worry for me as id only ever flown to Paris, but trust me it was a piece of cake!! The flight to Amsterdam took fifty minutes then the flight to MSP took 9 and half hrs but this seemed to go pretty quick as there was a great selection of in flight entertainment with TV screens in the head rests.
When I arrived at MSP airport I was picked up by the hotel shuttle bus that JANNA the clinical operations manager at Shapiro Medical Group had very kindly arranged for me as she was aware just how nervous i was of flying and how inexperienced i was, as i'd only ever flown to France before. This was a huge weight off my mind as its terrifying being in a strange country without the added worry of finding your hotel. .
Janna had booked my hotel for me previously in the run up to the surgery as I'm hopeless with anything like that which was very helpful .The hotel she recommended and booked was the country inn and suites at Bloomington and i was very impressed with her recommendation as the hotel was great
When the bus dropped me off at the hotel I simply couldn't believe it, the place was immaculate and the staff were warm and friendly and ever so helpful (which to be honest was a shock as UK hotels are generally poor). The room came equipped with flat screen TV with loads of channels and on demand movies, it had all the essential amenities e.g. hair dryers, kettle iron etc ,and there was even free Wifi Internet access in every room which proved cool as I brought my laptop.
There was also free breakfasts which believe me I took advantage of as they were out of this world lol..
Monday morning i got the shuttle bus from the hotel to take me to SMG and I don't mind admitting I was absolutely terrified after the previous transplants id had. I must of spent most of the night in the lavatory but Janna bless her kept reassuring me as soon as i arrived at SMG which was very nice!!.
As soon as i arrived after meeting Janna i was relaxed as she was a wonderful warm caring person and knew just what to say to put me at ease straight away
She then introduced me to Dr Shapiro he greeted me with a handshake and welcomed me to his clinic, straight away all my fears disappeared because the guy was one of the most kind, warm hearted gentleman I've ever had the pleasure to meet he really took on board my hair loss concerns and was extremely passionate about helping me it was obvious right from the get go this guy was going to do his very best to improve my situation.
Firstly he checked out my donor hair, laxity and recipient site. He then took plenty off photos from all sides, he then uploaded these onto a computer screen so I could see my hair loss from all angles. After this he asked what I hated the most and what I hoped to achieve.
We discussed the options and procedure for around an hour. He was extremely thorough and answered all my questions and concerns and really took on board what I was saying. To me it was blatantly obvious the man had my very best interests at heart, there was absolutely no pressure or rushing to get me into the chair he wanted to get the plan off attack just right before we started.
He then showed me what he thought would be the best plan off attack based on his knowledge and my desires by drawing diagrams on my head and going through the whole process step by step explaining every aspect of the imminent surgery. I was more than happy to go with his suggestions as they were exactly what i was hoping for and matched my goals completely . So we agreed on the approach and I was led into the procedure room where I was introduced to everyone.
This again was a pleasure as every member off his staff greeted me warmly I felt like a VIP and I couldn't possibly have been more comfortable all the techs were very friendly and happy telling jokes and doing their up most to make me feel comfortable. All in all I have to say that Dr's Ron and Paul Shapiro must have had the friendliest work force I've eve come across my whole life.
I was then told to put on a medical gown ready for the procedure whilst doing this their consultant Matt Zupan came in and introduced himself to me and again what a nice guy he was, funny and quick witted and very likable just like the other staff members he asked if I was comfortable and laughed at my forum name Bullitnut .
I was placed in a chair rather like a dentists chair and was given my anesthetic using an extraordinary vibrating machine that was placed on my forehead to numb my scalp. This was a great feeling I never felt any pain whatsoever just the odd scratch like feeling now and again but this was normal and was nothing at all to worry about. I can honestly say hand on heart that the anesthetic was no where near as bad as that administered at a dentist, and i'm a wimp so if it hurt id be the first to complain lol.
I was then placed face down on the chair with my chin on a head rest so Dr Shapiro could remove my strip. This again was completely painless and to be honest I almost fell asleep as I was very comfortable lying there and had foolishly had little sleep the night before due to needless worry. After the strip was removed the techs starting the cutting while I was being sutured up.
Dr Shapiro then told me he had managed to get rid of most of my poor previous scar which was great and I almost started to cry soft sod I am lol. He then started to make the incisions for my new hair with Janna counting everyone out loud so we knew just how many there was. When about 90% of the incisions were made, they used a dye onto my recipient area for them to see the incisions better. They saved around 10% of the grafts to be used for fine tuning at the end. They were also taking estimates of how many grafts were to be expected every half hours or so.
Janna and the other techs then started to plant with Dr Shapiro checking all the time he was very thorough and hardly ever away whilst they were doing this. They planted in a rotation so that each tech didn't become too tired. It was obvious that they had all been there working together for a lot of years as they were like a well oiled machine working in tune with each other it was very impressive to see.
During the surgery I was given Valium to help me relax and offered a choice of Dvd's to watch on a flat screen TV in front of me, the whole experience was so relaxing I almost fell asleep on numerous occasions and had to fight to keep my eyes open at times lol.
I can honestly say though that through out the whole procedure I didn't feel one bit of pain, and I was told that if I did to tell them so they could administer more anesthetic.
The whole thing lasted from 8.00 am until around 5.00pm with a break in the middle for lunch which was a lovely pizza courtesy of NervousNelly,thank you!!.
I was also told that if I ever needed the rest room just to ask and I could go, which I did on a couple of occasions and both times I was escorted by this very caring lovely technician just to make sure I was ok due to the medication ,all in all the level of care shown throughout was simply exceptional. The guys who work at SMG should be very proud of themselves as they do a superb job and really know how to make someone feel welcome and look after them.
Throughout the surgery I was offered drinks periodically which was a nice gesture as you can imagine sat in a chair that long you become restless and a nice drink every now and again alleviated that .
When most of the grafts were placed Dr Shapiro and Janna began to fine tune the hairline with the last lot of grafts to fine tune the work and they really took there time over this to ensure it was just right and as planned from the beginning.
After the surgery was finished Tom one off the techs a really cool guy went through all the post operative instructions and gave me a bag with pain killers and some gauze cloths, graftcyte spray and antibiotic cream he was very thorough with the instructions and made sure I understood properly which was good thanks Tom!!.
I was then given something to eat and drink before I said goodbye to everyone and thanked Dr Shapiro for all the work he had done , Janna then asked if I was happy with the results and i'm not ashamed to admit that even though I'm a man off 34yrs old it brought tears to my eyes when I looked in the mirror.
After the surgery i went back to the hotel on the free shuttle bus which was very handy and the driver was great, the hotel was only minutes away from SMG so the ride only took a short while.
I was told to return the day after surgery for a shampoo so they could instruct me properly on how to do it. The free bus picked me up again the following day and when i arrived Janna introduced me to one of the techs, who was also a hairdresser called Sue. She said she was going to trim my hair after Janna had washed it for me and she did a great job as it looked lots better when the sides were trimmed to match the new grafted hair.
Afterwords Dr Shapiro took some pictures and video footage of my results he asked me if I was happy and I said ecstatic.
The city itself was great to explore and was beautiful and worlds apart from anything we have here in the UK, I was mesmerized by all the tall buildings and how clean the place was, also the people there were so polite and well mannered it was like something from a dream I really took to the city and its definitely a place id visit again.
I realize this has been a long thread but I feel that after the poor surgeries ive had in the past I owe it to everyone out there who has supported me on the forums to tell them just how pleased and thankful I am. Right now I feel like a kid in a candy store and I would like to say a huge heartfelt thank you to Dr Shapiro for all his hard work and dedication in making my dreams come true.
You truly are the greatest man I've ever met in my entire life you were born with a gift and i'm just so glad I got the pleasure of you using it on me, in my humble opinion based on all the research I did before you agreed to do the pro Bono work and my own experience ive had with you, you are definitely the greatest hair transplant surgeon on the planet today and as well as that you have now become a good friend and id like to wish you all the best for the future.
I would also like to thank Janna who is just an incredible lady who has the patients best interest at heart 100% of the time, you went out of your way every day I was in Minnesota to help me and for that I am and always will be eternally grateful you're the best J
SMG ROCK!!!!!!!!
I realize people may possibly think i'm only writing this article and saying good things about SMG as ive had a repair there, but i think its important to emphasize the fact that hand on heart the treatment i received from SMG was absolutely second to none.
They looked after me every single step of this project and were always there to answer any questions i had. Their entire staff bent over backwards to accommodate me and they really were a great bunch of people every single one of them.
They were very professional and extremely caring and it was visible straight away that Dr Ron Shapiro really knew what he was talking about as soon as i spoke with him, i genuinely believe he really is at the very top of the ht game and i would not hesitate one bit to recommend him or Dr Paul to anyone.
Overall i'm walking on air at the moment thanks to everyone who's contributed to this repair project. The fact that guys at SMG and on the hair loss forums some who ive never met before in my life have contributed to me getting my life back means so much to me, i simply cant describe how thankful i am and i really am glad to have found the hair loss forums and come across people like SMG,Spencer,Bigmac,PB, Tim UK, tubs ,nervous Nelly and all the other great folk that have contributed to this.
best wishes to everyone who supported me i'm off to bed now as i'm extremely tired and looking forward to dreaming about using a comb for the first time in eight years lol
I would also like to say a huge thank you to PB and BIGMAC who started this whole project for me. Your the best guys i owe you big time

how can i get out of the army?
i just got home from basic training three weeks ago. i did not graduiate, and i do not feel that the army is for me. i only swore in once and i am split-ops; meaning i came home right after basic training for my last year of high school. i do not want a dis-honorable discharge but i want out. what is the best way and who do i talk to to get a general discharge?
tell your first sergeant that you are in love with him and you want to have gay anal sex with him. bring some flowers and ky jelly with you. this might actually work unless he takes you up on your offer. but then i think you might have some other problems to deal with, LOL.

Beijing's biomedical industry, historic opportunity to welcome
Usher in the historical development opportunities
Into the new century, life sciences and biotechnology research continued to achieve a major breakthrough. This breakthrough, is agriculture, medicine, energy and chemical industry and the birth of a new birth of the industrial revolution, and thus lead to a new international division of labor. Accelerate the development of bio-industry in many countries has become a focus of economic development strategy. Especially in the current circumstances, in order to cope with the international financial crisis, countries have in accelerating the development of new economic growth points, in order to revive the economy after the crisis to prepare bio-industry has become an important option in many countries.
The NDRC official said that at present, China has entered a well-off society and accelerating the modernization of the new stage. Compared with other countries, China in the future supply of resources faced by the "bottleneck" is more prominent, and eco-environmental constraints become more pronounced. Therefore, to accelerate the bio-industry development, for our country to ease the population, health, resources, and environment bottleneck constraints, promoting steady economic growth, the protection of national security has special strategic significance.
It is in this context, with the health care system and the steady implementation of the policy of expanding domestic demand, and "Science and Technology Beijing" action plan "Zhongguancun national independent innovation demonstration area construction," efforts to promote the Beijing bio-pharmaceutical industry has become the capital of tune structure, to maintain growth, an important force in promoting the people's livelihood, but also ushered in a rare historical opportunity for development.
Industry form a "capital characteristics"
Learned from the Beijing Science and Technology Commission, in recent years, Beijing's biomedical industry to rely on scientific and technological innovation to maintain a steady and relatively fast growth, industry continues to grow. After years of development, Beijing's biomedical industry in the industrial structure, innovation, development potential, spatial layout has formed a significant "capital characteristics."
One is medium-sized state-owned enterprises as the backbone of the biomedical innovation system, Beijing has taken initial shape. In recent years, Beijing's focus on promoting the Beijing Pharmaceutical Group, Beijing Tong Ren Tang Group, China's three major groups in biotechnology innovation system. At present, three major groups in the capital, technological resources and the close association, established a number of national engineering centers and business technology center, marking the Beijing chemical medicine, Chinese medicine, bio-pharmaceuticals and other areas has been basically built a business-oriented innovation system.
The engineering and technical centers to assume and carry out a new product development, great variety of re-development, production process and so a lot of work to upgrade key technologies for enterprise development and growth of the industry has played an active role. Now, key enterprises has become a bio-pharmaceutical industry to promote the development of Beijing's most important strength. In 2008, the north of the Pharmaceutical Group, Tong Ren Tang Group, Tiantan Biological Products and other key enterprises, represented by the completion of sales of 22.8 billion, for the industry contributed 75% of industrial output.
Second, small and medium innovative enterprises in support of Beijing's sustainable development, bio-pharmaceutical industry plays an important role in the process. By Ted pharmaceutical, source de bio, music & Poor's health care, medicine, and so pairs of herons, represented by a group of proprietary technology, high-growth enterprises have become Beijing biomedical industry an important part. With proprietary technology or exclusive varieties, strong profitability of these enterprises, marketing margins are often as high as 50%.
Science and technology enterprises rely on innovation and development, has been widely recognized by domestic and international capital markets, music & Poor's health care, Tiantan Biological Products, Beijing Sinovac, source de Biology, BIOSINO, Tong Ren Tang Science and Technology, Beijing Double-Crane Pharmaceutical and other biomedical 16 science and technology enterprises have in New York, Singapore and China's Hong Kong, Shanghai, Shenzhen and other domestic and foreign stock exchange listing is successful, the current market value of more than 100 billion yuan.
Third, Beijing has become the world's biomedical industry, the focus of the development of cities. Beijing a strong scientific and technological resources, clinical resources and markets to attract a large number of domestic and foreign enterprises and the development of R & D institutions in Beijing. Since 2003, Beijing biomedical field has attracted 77 foreign investment projects, with a total investment amounting to 13.808 billion yuan. France's Sanofi - Aventis, Procter & Gamble and the United States, Genzyme, Novo Nordisk of Denmark as well as the Yangtze River in Jiangsu, Jilin amendment, Hebei Yiling, medium-well-known enterprises in Jiangxi, Beijing has become a major force in the field of bio-medicine .
Fourth, a large number of enterprises started to go global. Beijing internationalization of biomedical industry with a solid foundation and a good start in recent years, a number of good development trend, the backbone of a high degree of brand recognition to the international companies are on the road has a good performance: Beijing SECCO medicine to apply for registration in the United States has begun its own production of generic drugs; Beijing Zizhu Pharmaceutical raw material medicine and preparation products have been marketing more than 20 countries; Tong Ren Tang Group has opened a number of overseas branches of overseas registered more than 400 varieties, and so on.
Depicts a beautiful blueprint for the development
Beijing national bio-industry base of the cluster pattern and degree of industrial agglomeration leading the country, formed the Zhongguancun Life Science Park as an industry innovation center, Beijing Economic and Technological Development Zone as an international manufacturing center, to Daxing industrial base for the emerging bio-pharmaceutical manufacturing industry gathering area "three-point support, collaborative development" space layout. At present, the three parks the city's total bio-pharmaceutical industry for more than 50% of the total output value has become host to the Beijing bio-pharmaceutical industry a pillar industry represent an important platform.
In recent years, Beijing continue to integrate its own scientific and technological resources, and strive to create a favorable environment for industrial development, breaking the policy bottlenecks, capital, technology professionals rely on superiority and urge enterprises to strengthen independent innovation capability, build the core competitiveness of the efforts have started to bear fruit enterprise cluster efficiency increased daily.
In the future, Beijing will continue to optimize the market, capital and human resources areas such as allocation of resources to scientific and technological innovation as a means to further enhance the market competitiveness of key enterprises to further promote the key enterprises and high-end varieties into the United States, Europe and other international mainstream market to further promote the expansion of market share in key products and further promote the exclusive varieties to market faster.

My first acrylic portrait....? (photorealism?)?
Ok, so the time has come, i've been painting landscapes and buildings and things photorealistically up to now, but i now need to do a portrait. I can sketch and shade portraits so as they are photorealistic, but painting just illudes me, i dread to even try for more than 15 minutes as i know then that they're coming out awful.....Sadly i can't link my photo directly, as it's on an online gallery, where each photo doesn't have a link, but it's a complex portrait of a soldier by Robert J Wilson, with sharp ocntrast on the face, with no real midtones, but the subtle blending of the lighting illudes me....So yeah, what tips do you have in terms of stages for making a photorealistic portrait?
Thanks
I find acrylic far easier to use than oil as far as portraits are concerned. Most of my paintings I've done using projection - literally projecting an image onto the canvas and using it as a basis for the first stages of the painting. This may sound like cheating, but it's a method that has been used for centuries by many of the great masters.
A very important thing to do when working on a portrait is not to think of what you are doing as painting a face. Consider the shapes of what you are painting, thinking in terms of ovals and triangles rather than eyes, ears and nose. It also removes the risk of thinking "skin, therefore pink and brown". Skin can appear to be a wide range of shades and colours. When we think of a face we carry a lot of perceptual baggage into the work with us. Thinking purely in terms of shape, form, and light removes a lot of that baggage.

Caring for your Wood Furniture
There is nothing like wood furniture to add elegance and beauty to a home. Whether it is a thick, all-natural butchers block table, an Art Deco wooden dresser, a simple mahogany dining room table or a sleek, modern coffee table, wood furniture is a staple in homes across America and the world. Make sure your wood tables, vanities and dressers stay gorgeous for generations to come with these simple solutions and guidelines.
Stain, Stain, Go Away!
Ever gasped after a child inadvertently left a giant scratch in the surface of your dining room table? Or cringed when a well-meaning adult accidentally knocked over a drink onto your beautiful wood coffee table? Well, fear not. One of the best attributes of wood furniture is that it is simple to touch up or renew its original luster.
Small nicks and scratches can usually be disguised with the help of a store-bought scratch cover product. For larger scratches, try using a felt tip pen or shoe polish in a color closely matched to the finish of the furniture piece. Shoe polish applicator bottles filled with the stain work well for the cover-up job, as do Sharpie markers. Coloring in the scratch is easy and surprisingly effective.
Get rid of pesky water spots on your wood furniture by allowing the spots to dry completely, then rubbing real mayonnaise onto it with a soft cloth, until the spots disappear. Erase color rings left on tables by cups and glasses with a homemade mixture of cigarette ashes and cooking oil. Prep the stain first by scrubbing it with an abrasive pad or sandpaper. Then, rub the oil and ash concoction into the wood.
And what about candle wax, marring the beautiful finish of your wood dining room table? Wait until the wax cools, then apply ice. Once the wax becomes extremely hard and brittle, gently scrape it off with a plastic spatula. Finally, polish the table with a rich cream polish, and buff away any residue.
Prevent serious damage to your wood furniture by taking care not to position it in direct sunlight. Unless you are going for the weathered picnic table look, shield all wood furniture from the drying influence of the sun. Also, protect your dining room table's finish using an inexpensive table pad when the table is not in use.
When eating a meal or entertaining guests, use a tablecloth or placemats to protect the finish of a wood table, especially when serving hot food. Place hot serving dishes atop a hot pad and candle holders over a large felt protector with a plastic top, since plastic prevents wax from running.
Use coasters beneath all glasses and mugs to protect your coffee table, dining room table and wood dressers from unsightly rings and water spots. Beware, because not all coasters are created equal. Metal coasters can sweat onto the wood, and plastic coasters can react with certain finishes on some wood furniture pieces. So consider choosing wooden coasters with felt backing and a waterproof material on top to further ensure the longevity of your wood table tops. The best coasters are those that taper up on the sides, preventing leakage.
Polishing wood furniture every week goes a long way toward protecting the finish from damage and helping your wood tables, chairs and dressers look their best. Beware, though, of cheap polishes, or any polish that contains silicone or alcohol. Alcohol can do permanent damage to a wood surface, as can any household cleaner that contains ammonia. An excellent polish can be easily made at home, by combining lemon oil with 3 parts olive oil.
Now that you know about polishes, don't forget to clean your wood furniture as well. Regular cleaning is especially important for coffee tables and dining room tables where food and drink are daily staples. Use a very mild soap, such as a diluted mixture of hand soap and water, as a cleaning agent for your wood furniture. And if you really want to ensure your dining room table or heirloom wood desk stays beautiful, have your wood furniture buffed and polished by a professional service once or twice a year.
Now you are fully armed to properly care for your wood furniture. And don't be disheartened if you are unable to make a nick or small stain disappear completely. Signs of use can add character to a piece of wood furniture, and are often barely noticeable. Whether it is a dresser, coffee table, bookshelf, desk, or dining room table, wood furniture is the perfect addition to any home.

How difficult is it to replace Milgard casement window hardware?
Our house has a couple of newish Milgard casement windows. They are double pane with wood interior and fiberglass exterior, and very energy efficient, so I don't want to replace the windows entirely (plus I can't really afford to!), but the hardware is really ugly and out of sync with our 1925 house. Is it possible to replace the casement operator/crank handle and the locking mechanism without destroying the double pane seal or marring the wood too much? Has anyone out there done this? I would hire a professional, so I mainly just want to know if it can be done. I can't even figure out how one would remove the hardware that is on there. Thanks very much.
If the wood interior is painted there's no problem at all (Because any holes can be filled and painted without leaving any indication you have changed the hardware), but if it's stained you'll probably need to buy hardware that will cover the holes left by the hardware you're placing (Or when the holes are plugged they'll be seen). But buying hardware to cover the holes isn't really that hard to do, apart for the fact you might not be able to buy what you want, rather what will cover the holes, if you understand what I mean.
