Projector Hire – Choosing the Right One for Your Presentation

Calling a projector hire company will often get you confused as they ask:

What lumens do you need? (Lumens is the brightness of the projector)
What resolution do you need? (Resolution is the number of pixels at which the display device does not have to expand or compress the input signal)
What type: install, desktop or portable? (Install projectors tend to be larger and heavier, desktop ones are small and light and portable are somewhere in between!)
What you should ask yourself are the following simple questions:

How many people will need to see the projected image? A 1000 lumens projector will usually be sufficient for a smaller meeting – up to 20 people. 2000 lumens is better. A brighter projector will be needed for brighter rooms, bigger screens and larger audiences – some projectors go up to over 10,000 lumens but you shouldn’t need these for a simple presentation!
What will you be showing on the projector? Both data (from a computer) and video can be used to input into the majority of projectors. Most computers are XGA resolution (1024×768 pixels), but some older models may be VGA. This is not a problem for SVGA projectors, which will generally automatically lower the resolution, however if you are projecting high resolution photos and want near photographic detail, then it will have to be an XGA. If the projector is only going to be used to project video from a DVD or video, then there is little advantage in using the higher resolution XGA since SVGA can already project an image consisting of over 800 lines which is more than the resolution of a video signal.
How big is the room – do you need a PA system? Most projectors come with a small speaker that’s useless for anything practical. There’s nothing worse than being unable to make yourself heard! If you’ve got sound with your presentation or video, make sure you hire a separate PA system to let people hear it.

How to Conjugate Spanish Verbs in the Future Present Tense

In today’s Spanish lesson, I will teach you the Future Perfect tense. This tense is also known as the Future Present Perfect. I decided to write this lesson after a reader emailed and me and asked “Anna, how do you say ‘will have’ in Spanish. I want to know how to say things like: I will have eaten before you arrive.”

In the same way that “will have” is used in in English, in Spanish the Future Perfect Tense is used to express actions that will take place in the future before another action.

Before I give you a few examples, I should warn you that this is an advanced topic in Spanish grammar. You will find this topic in the top Spanish grammar books, but I don’t know of any self-study Spanish course on the market that covers this topic. So you may want to pay close attention since there
are limited materials that teach this topic.

Let’s take a look at some examples:

Antes de que partamos, habré hecho mi equipaje.
(Before we leave, I will have done my luggage.)

By the way, I hope that you noticed that in Spanish you cannot only “empacar” (pack) your luggage. You can also “hacer” your luggage which means to “do” or “make” your luggage in Spanish. That’s why I used the verb “hacer” in Spanish in this instance.

Luego de tres años, habrá recorrido Europa.
After three years, he will have traveled through Europe.

Para cuando llegues, habré cocinado la cena.
By the time you arrive, I will have cooked dinner.

Habrás leído todo el material para fin del año.
You will have read all the material by the end of the year.

Antes de que estrenen la película, habremos leído el libro.
Before they premiere the movie, we will have read the book.

This concludes today’s lesson on how to conjugate Spanish verbs in Future Present Perfect tense.

Affiliate Marketing:Promoting Your Own Web Presents

Affiliate Marketing is the promotion of anothers products or services. If this process is done right,it’s the ideal work at home business opportunity. The key here is to promote your own website that links to affiliate products, services and information that you will make a profit from.

Most off-line businesses are affiliate Marketers.They offer another’s products and services from a location that they own or lease. It’s no different on the web to be successful long term you must have your own piece of real estate, your own website {a themed content rich website} that will establish a internet present for you as you promote your affiliate programs.

How do you establish a internet present. By having your own domain name and”Branding” The term ‘branding’ is often bantered about the Internet and often thought to be proprietary to only those ‘big’ outfits like IPO’s and multi-national companies.

NOT TRUE! ‘Branding’ is every bit as important to small companies and individuals alike. In simple terms a ‘brand’ is something that starts becoming recognized with a product or service. On the BIG side, some ‘Brands’ are, YAHOO, Kellogg’s, Ford, IBM, etc. It’s not likely the average person taking this course will ever develop a ‘Brand’ of this magnitude of recognition, but all the same, a personal ‘Brand’ is vital to your own recognition.

For an individual Netrepreneur, placing your own photo on every page you promote can be most beneficial, add your name and a telephone number and before long people will start to: 1] recognize your face 2] develop a comfort zone around you 3] join programs and/or purchase from your webpage(s)

Sure you could spend a lot of time and money creating a ‘Brand’, but most of the great ones are gone or in the very least already on a drawing table somewhere.On the other hand, a photo of your head and shoulders is already copyrighted to you, people’s natural curiosity compels them to look at faces, and faces ALWAYS last in the mind’s eye far longer than any name or phrase.

For Affiliate Marketers, having your own theme,content rich website is important, and you should be promoting affiliate products and services that are revelent to your themed website.
