			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p class="MsoNormal">A point and figure commodity charts is used for technical analysis of securities. Unlike many other investment charts, point and figure commodity charts do not represent a linear representation of time. They instead, show trends in price.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The aim of point and figure commodity charting is to filter out the unimportant price movement and focus on the true direction of the price trend.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Point and figure commodity charts are usually used for a longer-term price movement. Having said that, they can also be used to day trade by clearly identifying the key points of demand and supply. They are also very effective at keeping you on the correct side of the market. Point and figure commodity charts can do a really great job to spot some really good trading opportunities on a trade and trend market. Point and figure commodity charts are close relatives to three-line break, renko and kagi charts, which do not have a fixed time frame. This will make you trade only the important moves of the market; small moves are discarded because of the limited gain potential.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">There are two typical ways to plot point and figure commodity charts, using closing prices, or with high/low prices. The most common method in today’s market is high/low prices of a specific period usually daily price. The close (EOD) method was also used until 1947 when A.W. Cohen invented a new system to work with point and figure commodity charts using high/low prices. A.W. Cohen also invented in 1955, the bullish percent indicator BP. A tool to gauge the market breadth of a particular market or index.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Today, Chart craft is Investors Intelligence. Website Investors intelligence was used for the calculation of the BP high/low prices of the day because of the fact he invented the high/low system on point and figure <a href="http://www.commoditynewscenter.com/ext/Markets">commodity charts</a>. However, it is also possible to calculate the BP with close only prices but the outcome became two different BP charts.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Closing prices are very useful when charting price movement for funds or suchlike where there are no real ways to get the intraday prices for that fund. Nevertheless, we can use the close only prices for every kind of market because the intraday movement of prices can be very confusing. If you take into account that point and figure commodity charting in the last parts of the 19th century and the first parts of the 20th century was used to record price movement of tick charts, the close only price would be one tick. Specifically our last tick for the trading day.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><o:p></o:p>In the growing world of cosmetic dentistry, <a href="http://www.lvismile.com">teeth whitening</a> is a very sought after procedure. Generally valued by men and women both alike, whitening (or bleaching) treatments can be available to satisfy every budget, time frame and temperament.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Whether it is in the form of a one-hour bleaching session at your dentist’s office, or in home use bleaching kits purchased at your local Wal-Mart or drug store, teeth whitening solutions are very popular. However, only 15 percent of the population has tried the cosmetic procedure, and what is more, misinformation on the subject is everywhere.<o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The whole idea of it is that teeth whitening does work. Virtually every person who opts to do this cosmetic treatment will see moderate to substantial improvement in the brightness and whiteness of his or her smile. However, teeth’s whitening is not a permanent solution and will require maintenance or touch-ups for a lasting effect.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Bleaching vs. Whitening, What is the Difference?<o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">According to the FDA, the term bleaching is permitted and to only be used when the teeth need to be whitened beyond their natural color. This will apply strictly to products that contain bleach, typically hydrogen peroxide or carbamide peroxide.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">However, the term whitening, on the other hand, can refer to restoring a tooth’s surface color by removing all dirt and debris. Therefore, any product that will clean (like a toothpaste) would be considered a whitener. Of course, the term whitening sounds much better than bleaching, so it will be more frequently used even when describing products that do contain bleach.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><o:p></o:p>Even if you have spent all of your career working in the marketing field, it can be a shock to discover that <a href="http://www.staceythewriter.com">marketing for coaching</a> can be very different than marketing a can of beef stew or any other packaged goods or product.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Coaching is <span class="syn">impalpable</span>; people can not see, hear or touch what it is going to be like when they do buy. It can only be experience. Clients are taking a huge risk when they decide to work with a coach because they have to take the coaches word for what they will get out of it. For this huge reason, trust will be a much larger factor in a client’s decision to work with any particular coach than it will be for many other purchasing decisions.<o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Some very successful marketing professionals who have made the transition to becoming independent coaches have found that there usual techniques and strategies that have worked in the past for them will no longer work.<span>  </span>Why? Well, very often they were very successful at marketing an established product or service.<span>  </span>In other words, something that was known to its client base and has an element of goodwill attached to it. When you do start a service based business from scratch, it takes time to build up a brand as well as a reputation.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Very, very few people are an overnight success as a coach.<span>  </span>In fact, if you want to be a professional coach, prepare yourself for the long haul.<span>  </span>Unless you have a book of contacts that are ready to start using your services, expect to have to support yourself for your first year.<span>  </span>As I mentioned earlier you will have to establish yourself as well as your reputation as a good and knowledgeable coach.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 10pt">Many young people have graduated – or are about to graduate – from a <st1:place w:st="on"><st1:state w:st="on">New York</st1:state></st1:place> school and are finding themselves unready to enter the ‘real world’ of careers, jobs, rent – in short, unready for responsibility. Though many are quick to associate this disposition with immaturity or laziness, it is actually a reflection of maturity insofar as many of these students recognize that they simply don’t know about themselves to commit to responsibility, or else feel they are not confident or self-sufficient enough to be having to work full-time <em>and</em> live completely self-sufficiently for the first, too. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 10pt"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 10pt">For this reason, many students make the decision to do some traveling in an effort to build confidence, satisfy curiosity, and have plain old fun. But without a job to pay the bills, and with the financial umbilical cord to Mommy and Daddy severed by graduation, what’s a poor student to do? One of the best ways to travel is to work and travel at the same time. Jobs that can be picked up during travel are generally lower-responsibility so that those who take them can develop confidence in working while they take the bold step of getting acclimated to life in an entirely different place. These two activities – working and living abroad – instill confidence not only in one’s ability to succeed in the work environment, but also to succeed in a new place or in a new circumstance – e.g., a foreign country. The result is a transition to grown-up working life that is less jarring, better guided, and more fulfilling. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 10pt"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 10pt">Speaking of fulfilling, one of the most rewarding experiences across all of life – not just work – is teaching, and teaching English abroad not only pays well but is consummately flexible, allowing teachers to hop from place to place to teach for a few weeks before moving on to the next great city or country. In order to get a piece of the English teaching action, would-be teachers ought to strongly consider getting a TEFL certification, which is a credential recognized worldwide as the mark of a teacher who spent time learning the skills and gaining the knowledge necessary to teach English to speakers of other languages. Luckily for those looking to earn the accreditation of <strong><a href="http://www.teflinstitute.com/TEFL-usa-NewYork-City.php">TEFL<span style="font-weight: normal">, </span>New York</a> </strong>is full of institutes that cater specifically to students looking to learn to teach English and then teach abroad for an extended period or else travel from place to place, teaching English when necessary to make money.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 10pt"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 10pt">In sum, teaching English while traveling is an ideal use of time by recent or soon-to-be graduates because it fosters maturity in the workplace, personal maturity, is fulfilling, and underscores cross-cultural similarities through the use of a common language – English – so few things are lost in translation.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">The <a href="http://www.chicagopressrelease.com"><strong>public relations services</strong></a> industry sustained a dramatic impact with the introduction of the Internet. In 1993, ProfNet, a collaboration of public information officers that provided journalists with access to expert sources, was launched. Its members would include colleges, corporations, nonprofit organizations, and even law firms. ProfNet would also include an online catalog of 2,000 leading experts across all disciplines.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">As the use of the Internet has continued to grow, the transition to interactive communications required a huge change in thinking and has created new opportunities for building relationships between organizations and their public. The Internet is able to deliver messages combining various methods of communication; text, audio, graphics, still pictures, animation, and even full motion video. The challenge for the <strong>public relations services</strong> professionals were to use this tool to the organization&#8217;s advantage, thus allowing for more one to one communication while still maintaining the credibility and essential trust for the organization&#8217;s well being.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The Internet has also driven the increasing globalization of the marketplace. In 1999, the <st1:country-region w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">United   States</st1:place></st1:country-region> had an overwhelming lead in Internet users, with more than 110 million, which is nearly 43 percent of the total 259 million worldwide Internet users. By 2002, the <st1:country-region w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">United States</st1:place></st1:country-region> had been projected to have 1/3 of worldwide Internet users. However, it did decline to 27 percent by the end of 2005. The most notable impact on the <strong>public relations services</strong> industry by the growth of the Internet was in the re-evaluation of the traditional marketplace. Normal boundaries defining not only economic but also geographic roles had been redefined with the increasingly huge global market.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><strong>Public relations services</strong> programs are able to constantly monitor the Internet in order to identify new and innovative ways to communicate with targeted audiences through this medium. Companies using the Internet can take advantage of the one to one marketing opportunities presented by the Internet to reach the important leaders in industry. Extending the any organizations&#8217; presence to the World Wide Web and commercial online services transcended to the traditional public relations services. These communications efforts can combine the best of traditional PR—strategic consulting, marketing support, media relations, public affairs, crisis management, investor relations, even special events—with the unending reach through the Internet.</p>

Today, <st1:city w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">Sydney</st1:place></st1:city> is a city that attracts industry and tourists alike. Considered one of the most beautiful harbors for a major city in the world, <st1:city w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">Sydney</st1:place></st1:city> imports products from around the globe.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify; line-height: normal"><span style="color: black"><span></span>If you are visiting <st1:country-region w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">Australia</st1:place></st1:country-region> and you need to arrange international auto transport for a vehicle there are a few things you must do to be in compliance with local laws. To begin with you will need a Vehicle Import Approval from the Australia Department of Transport. This form takes three weeks to acquire so it is recommended that you apply for it a month before you ship the vehicle.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify; line-height: normal"><span style="color: black"><span></span>Once you have the VIA in hand you can go ahead and arrange international auto transport. If you haven’t done this before take your time and research a few different companies thoroughly before you make a decision. Dealing with someone who is inexperienced or disorganized can cause delays and cost you extra money on the back end. A quality international auto transport company will answer all your questions honestly and accurately, prep your car properly to avoid damage in transit, and inform you exactly how much you will need for duty and import tax. These are issues that need to be addressed before your vehicle leaves its destination.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify; line-height: normal"><span style="color: black"><o:p> </o:p><br />
<span></span>When your car arrives in <st1:country-region w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">Australia</st1:place></st1:country-region> it will be steam cleaned and quarantined. There may be additional wharf fees at this point which your international auto transport company should be aware of. You will also have to pay a Goods and Service Tax (GST) and possibly a Luxury Car Tax (LCT). Again, you should be provided with the amounts of these fees ahead of time and be prepared when you pick up your vehicle. If you attempt to import a car without the Vehicle Import Approval (VIA) you will also be charged a $12,000 Special Duty Tax. If you are a tourist or your car was manufactured in <st1:country-region w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">Australia</st1:place></st1:country-region> and you owned and used it overseas you will not have to pay duty tax.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify; line-height: normal"><span style="color: black"><span></span>Whether you are visiting <st1:country-region w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">Australia</st1:place></st1:country-region> as a tourist or moving there you will want to have a car to drive when you arrive. This magnificent continent offers a wealth of scenic coastline, vast plains and vibrant wildlife. Paying for international auto transport can be expensive but it’s worth it if you plan on exploring. Hiring a trained professional can save you money and ensure that you have a pleasant and fulfilling experience.</span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">Cleaning all of your clothes and other fabric items after a fire can be a truly daunting task to have to undertake, but accomplishing this task can be done if you attempt to add a little order to the madness by sorting everything by fabric type and determining the care for each one.<span>  </span>Some things will need to be dry cleaned and others can be put in the washer in your laundry room.<o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Depending on how much soot or ash is on an item, what you will probably need to do is sort them according to this information.<span>  </span>Lightly soiled items should be washed with those things that are also lightly soiled and that group should be further broken down into different fabric types.<span>  </span>Cotton and other organics should be separated from synthetics.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Items that are heavily soiled with soot should be shaken out before you attempt to wash them.<span>  </span>This will remove as much of the dry soot particles as possible.<span>  </span>These should be sorted the same way as the lightly soiled items were.<span>  </span>Wash these items at least twice.<o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Using the full amount of laundry detergent that your detergent’s manufacturer recommends for each wash load is the best and you should also add at least one cup of water conditioner and a half cup of all-fabric bleach.<span>  </span>Depending on the kind of material you are washing, hot or warm water should be used and using the maximum amount of water your washer will handle is also recommended.<span>  </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Wash synthetic items in warm water only to keep them from wrinkling during the machine’s spin cycle.<o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">After the clothing’s second wash, determine if the soot is still visible.<span>  </span>If it is not, allowing the clothing to air dry instead of using the dryer is the best thing to do.<span>  </span>If the smoke odor remains, air them out outside for a while and wash again.<span>  </span>Perfumes in the detergent may mask the smoke damage odor, but it may come back after the perfume goes away.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Smoke damage odor will be more difficult to remove from cotton items, blankets, bedspreads, and other organic items.<span>  </span>Do not use chlorinated bleach on these items, since the fabric may have been weakened in areas due to the heat of the fire.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>If you are conducting a mold remediation job in your home or in your business, then the mold spores will become airborne and the risk of breathing these spores in becomes a much higher.<span>  </span>Anything that can stir up the mold spores is something that should be avoided unless you are wearing a respirator, which you should be wearing, anyway.<span>  </span>What can stir up mold spores?<span>  </span>Breaking up any porous material that is contaminated with mold, peeling or stripping wallpaper to remove it, using any invasive procedure to look for mold inside a wall, and using household fans or air conditioners to dry wet items can stir up these spores.<span>  </span>If you are planning on doing anything like this and not hiring a professional, please wear a respirator.<o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The minimum amount of PPE that should be used when you are cleaning up after mold is an N-95 respirator.<span>  </span>This device will cover your mouse and nose and will keep out about 95 percent of any particles in the air around you.<span>  </span>These are available in most general hardware stores.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">If you are looking for something a little stronger, then a full or half-face APR (air purifying respirator) that has a HEPA filter on it is something you might want to consider.<span>  </span>Make sure that the respirator you purchase is approved for use by the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health.<span>  </span>It should be noted that these do not protect your eyes.<o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">If you are in a situation where there is a large amount of mold growth and you will need a long amount of time to remove it, then you will want and need a powered air purifying respirator.<span>  </span>These are full-face and use a blower to force the air through a HEPA filter that will collect any mold spores that are in the air.<span>  </span>You must be trained to use this kind of respirator and the usage of it must be in compliance with the regulations of OSHA.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Some disposable clothing will be needed while you are cleaning up mold.<span>  </span>If you are on a serious budget and it is not that much mold to deal with, you can use some disposable paper towels.<span>  </span>If you are not on a budget, then some disposable foot and head coverings and a body suit made of something breathable, like TYVEK should be used.<span>  </span>There will be gaps around the wrists and ankles and these need to be sealed up with something such as duct tape.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>As if mold invading our homes wasn’t enough, it also invades other buildings such as the places where we work.<span>  </span>Anyone who owns a rental property or hires employees to work in a building that he or she owns must ensure that the building is free and clear of mold infestations not only because this can cause significant structural damage, but because they can be held legally liable for any and all medical bills associated with mold health complications resulting from working in a mold infested environment.<o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The list of health complications that can be blamed on mold are almost endless.<span>  </span>You’d have a better chance of picking a winning roulette number than you would of guessing the health effect(s) mold will cause in you.<span>  </span>You can become sick with anything from chronic dandruff, skin rashes, to bleeding in your lungs and aspergilloma (fungus balls that grow in cavities within the body).<span>  </span>The list of conditions caused by or aggravated by mold is longer than can be listed here.<span>  </span>What can employers and landlords do to ensure the safety of their workers and tenants?</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">First of all, take the claims that mold exist on the property seriously.<span>  </span>Check out the areas where your workers or tenants claim mold exist yourself and if you see even the slightest evidence that they could be right, you should be quick to have a professional test for mold.<span>  </span>If the test comes back as positive, you’re required to inform your workers that mold exists on the property and when remediation of it will begin and a general idea of when it will be concluded.<span>  </span>As soon as the property has had the mold removed, you need to have another test done to prove that the mold is gone.<span>  </span>Getting your employees back to work and your tenants back in their rental as soon as you can will restart your cash flow.<o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">You should encourage any of your employees that suffer health effects that could be attributed to the mold in your workplace or your rental property to see a doctor.<span>  </span>Any mold infestation that you detect should be dealt with as quickly as possible because you can be held responsible for more than just their medical bills associated with the mold.<span>  </span>If they’re your tenants, you can also be held responsible for their relocation bills and moving expenses.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p class="MsoNormal">When sending well-rounded <strong><a href="http://www.gifttree.com/static/wine-gift.html">wine gifts</a></strong> to a loved one, it’s important to not stop at the bottle of wine. While the bottle is important (and probably the most important!), there are other wine gifts that should be included in an effective wine gift basket:</p>
<p class="ListParagraphCxSpFirst" style="margin-left: 1.5in; text-indent: -0.25in"><!--[if !supportLists]--><span><span>1)<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; font-size: 7pt; line-height: normal; font-size-adjust: none; font-stretch: normal">      </span></span></span><!--[endif]-->The corkscrew. You can never be sure whether or not your loved one has a working corkscrew handy, especially if it’s someone you do not see often. Including the corkscrew guarantees that the bottle can be enjoyed immediately, if so desired.</p>
<p class="ListParagraphCxSpMiddle" style="margin-left: 1.5in; text-indent: -0.25in"><!--[if !supportLists]--><span><span>2)<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; font-size: 7pt; line-height: normal; font-size-adjust: none; font-stretch: normal">      </span></span></span><!--[endif]-->Drip ring. While wine professionals know how to pour without dripping, many of us amateurs will still have that solitary drip running down the side of the bottle. The drip ring will prevent that.</p>
<p class="ListParagraphCxSpMiddle" style="margin-left: 1.5in; text-indent: -0.25in"><!--[if !supportLists]--><span><span>3)<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; font-size: 7pt; line-height: normal; font-size-adjust: none; font-stretch: normal">      </span></span></span><!--[endif]-->Stopper. There are exceptions to this, but many times someone will open a bottle of wine, enjoy a glass, and then set it aside for later. Jamming the cork in can delay staleness, but a proper wine stopper will help that bottle last for days longer.</p>
<p class="ListParagraphCxSpLast" style="margin-left: 1.5in; text-indent: -0.25in"><!--[if !supportLists]--><span><span>4)<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; font-size: 7pt; line-height: normal; font-size-adjust: none; font-stretch: normal">      </span></span></span><!--[endif]-->Wine thermometer. As a general rule of thumb, white wines and champagnes are chilled, while red wines are served at room temperature. Including the wine thermometer will give your loved one the ability to tell when the wine is at a drinkable temperature.</p>
