In an age when American’s are becoming more aware of the importance of a healthy diet, it is really upsetting to see what a huge impact the rising gas prices are having on our nations’ food costs.
There are many factors that go into just how the price of gas is effecting our food prices but here is a real basic picture of it. Trucks are used to haul things like wheat and grains. And what do trucks use to make them go vroom? Fuel. And what are prices of fuel doing these days? Rising. What will the farmers of Wheat and Grains need to do? Raise prices to cover their costs.
It is this rising fuel cost that has what some have been calling a “trickle down” effect on the price of our food. Trickle down? More like shit storm. So just how severely are rising gas prices going to effect your diet? Read the rest of this entry »
In this day and age of immediate information being available at anyone’s fingertips, it would make sense that you would be concerned about how to improve your online reputation and be able to manage your reputation if it’s less than desirable.
Do you realize just how popular it is to use an internet search engine such as Google to find out about someone’s reputation?
HR Departments, prospective clients and yes even the opposite sex are using internet technology to find out about your online reputation. What if there is some content out there that isn’t exactly flattering to your online reputation? How are you going to defend your reputation?
Forget about yourself for a minute. This goes as far as college admission offices using the internet to find out about your child’s online reputation. Ok, now are you sure there is absolutely nothing out in cyberspace that could harm your child’s chances of getting accepted to his/her dream school?
The Celtics started off on an even keel, working hard on the boards while Rondo provided most of the early offense. Boston held a 10-9 edge until Ray Allen canned a three, kicking off a 10-2 run. Read the rest of this entry »
So what are you doing this weekend. Well we’re sitting around all day just cleaning the house rather than going out and having fun in this crappy Massachusetts weather.
If you are an avid reader of the Kensavage.com site then you may have noticed a period of time when the site was not up and running. Basically it got hacked. DDOS via ssh for about 3 weeks and they eventually took it down. Once it was down it was exploited and a got access to the site somehow.
Whatever it’s locked down tight now and I want to thank the guys at the best web hosting company out there Steadfast Networks.
Without warning our site was taken down for a few days from a sucker punch to our server. I’m here to tell you that we were down but not out!
There was an attempt made on the life of our server. It is with much chagrin that I must tell you that this hack into our server hit us with the old one two. We were stunned and our legs buckled for a little bit. Hey, it happens.
But we have finally gotten back up, put our mouth piece back in, and we’re ready to head back out there.
Ding! We’re coming out fighting tougher and more exciting than a Micky Ward fight.
THIS IS NOT THE ‘DON’T BUY’ GAS FOR ONE DAY, BUT IT WILL SHOW YOU HOW WE CAN GET GAS BACK DOWN TO $1.30 PER GALLON.
This was sent by a retired Coca Cola executive. It came from one of his engineer buddies who retired from Halliburton. If you are tired of the gas prices going up AND they will continue to rise this summer, take time to read this please.
Phillip Hollsworth offered this good idea.This makes MUCH MORE SENSE than the ‘don’t buy gas on a certain
day’ campaign that was going around last April or May! It’s worth your consideration. Join the resistance!!!!
I hear we are going to hit close to $ 4.00 a gallon by next summer and it might go higher!! Want gasoline prices to come down?
We need to take some intelligent, united action. The oil companies just laughed at that because they knew we wouldn’t continue to ‘hurt’ ourselves by refusing to buy gas .
It was more of an inconvenience to us than it was a problem for them. Read the rest of this entry »
The The New Rules of Marketing and PR by David Meerman Scott
I’d definitely recommend this and I bought it for a few other people too. Marketing and public relations is vastly different on the Web than in mainstream media. He says that the “old rules” of mainstream media (which he says do not work on the Web) are about “controlling a message” and the only ways to get the message into the public domain using mainstream media is to buy expensive advertising or beg the media to write about you.
The Web is different! Read the rest of this entry »
St. Patrick’s Day, March 17th, is fast approaching. On this day we will see people wearing shamrocks on various parts of their body and we may even see the occasional person dressed up in full leprechaun gear.
Since I’ve already told you how to ooze irish pride with the right St. Patrick’s Day gear, I thought it would be appropriate to tell you why.
If you’ve ever heard the real history of St. Patrick’s day you are left with the nagging question: What do shamrocks and leprechauns have to do with St. Patrick’s Day?

Wanted to test out this new mp3 player buttons and what better music to use than Brad Sucks
From Brad’s site:
Brad Sucks is the name of my one man band. I write, record and produce songs and put them on this website for people to download and hopefully share and enjoy. There are also some albums for sale.
In 2001, I started using the Internet (blogs, MP3s, P2P) to spread my music and not worrying so much about copyright violation. I’ve even been giving the source of my songs away for remixers to play with. I figured that spreading my music should be the number one goal and so far it’s worked out pretty well.

Last week I purchased a burger at Burger King for $1.58. The counter girl took my $2 and I was digging for my change when I pulled 8 cents from my pocket and gave it to her. She stood there, holding the nickel and 3 pennies, while looking at the screen on her register.
I sensed her discomfort and tried to tell her to just give me two quarters, but she hailed the manager for help. While he tried to explain the transaction to her, she stood there and cried.
Why do I tell you this?
Because of the evolution in teaching math since the 1950’s:

A logger sells a truckload of lumber for $100. His cost of production is $80 and his profit is $20. Your assignment: Underline the number 20. - Teaching Math In 1990’s
A logger cuts down a beautiful forest because he is selfish and inconsiderate and cares nothing for the habitat of animals or the preservation of our woodlands. He does this so he can make a profit of $20. What do you think of this way of making a living? Topic for class participation after answering the question: How did the birds and squirrels feel as the logger cut down their homes?

Established by Congress in 1994 to bring attention to the plight of wild birds, National Bird Feeding Month is celebrated each February, typically one of the harshest months of the year. What better time to introduce yourself or someone you know to one of North America’s favorite hobbies — bird watching — and more importantly, bird feeding!
It’s estimated that one in three American households feeds wild birds in their yard. Considering the lack of access that many of us have to the wild, it’s a great way to maintain a connection with nature and reap the benefits of stress-relief and enjoyment from something as simple as putting out food for birds.

Amy Winehouse has every reason to be proud of her time fixating on “Rehab.” The 24-year-old Brit made a spectacle of herself—but not in a bad way—Sunday night, reminding fans why they care about her troubles in the first place by winning a leading five Grammy Awards, including Record and Song of the Year.
Winehouse, also won Best Pop Vocal Album for her platinum-selling sophomore effort Back to Black and Best Female Pop Vocal Performance (again for “Rehab”) and was named Best New Artist.
Even with the kudos, Amy Winehouse lyrics and name had a question mark next to it for weeks. And on the day of, producers still weren’t sure whether she would appear in the flesh, albeit via satellite.
And just when it seemed as if time had run out on the 50th Annual Grammy Awards and the most hyped performance of the evening—not to mention the most anticipated acceptance speeches—had yet to occur, they hooked up the satellite link to London and let ‘er rip at about 7:41 p.m. ET.

Since Valentine’s Day engagements are the most popular of the holiday engagements, I thought I would bring up the fact that this being a leap year means that Valentine’s Day falls on a Saturday next year.
So you know what that means? You could get engaged on Valentines Day this year and get married the following year on Valentine’s Day.
What could be more romantic than having a Valentine’s Day wedding that actually falls on the one year anniversary of your engagement? Let’s forget about romance for a second…Ladies, what could be easier than planning a Valentine’s Day themed wedding?
