Dear Valued Customer, Warning To Parents: MySpace Hosting 29,000 Sex Offenders as of July 2007
According to a recent article in Computerworld, new iPhone owners who are trying to transfer their existing cell phone number to their new iPhone are experiencing long delays-particularly when trying to transfer service from rival carriers. These problems began lighting up message forums shortly after the iPhone went on sale. New iPhone customers were frustrated when they realized activation was not instantaneous, even though the user guide promised to complete activation in 20 minutes. The user guide also claimed that the user would be able to make calls and use the other features in the meantime. In many cases, users found that their old number had been deactivated, leaving them without a cell phone as they waited for iPhone activation to kick in. Annoyed users quickly dubbed it the "iBrick." Of course, many people did report activations in under 10 minutes, sometimes faster. AT&T spokesman Mark Siegel was quoted as saying, "The vast majority of activations are going through in a matter of minutes, as they're designed to. Have there been instances where customers have experienced delays? Yes. We're trying to resolve them as quickly as possible." He declined to provide a number of affected users. Apple was not available for comment.

Walking up to a department store's fabric counter, a pretty girl asked, "How much does this cost?" "Only one kiss per yard," replied the smirking male clerk. "That's fine," replied the girl. "I'll take ten yards." The clerk hurriedly measured out and wrapped the cloth, then held it out teasingly. The girl snapped up the package, and said to a little old man standing beside her, "Grandpa, pay the man."

PC MedEvac is a proud sponsor for Insight Racing Team and offer our congratulations! Insight Racing Team is one of the select few invited to participate in the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) Urban Challenge National Qualification Event in October. The race posting a $2 Million prize will pit driverless autonomous vehicles in an urban race to complete missions over 60 miles of city driving conditions. The final race is scheduled to be conducted on November 3rd of this year. Insight Racing is the only team from the Carolina's eligible to compete and they will be there with a sleek Lotus Elise. BPW Member Mary Ellen Randall is part of the Insight Racing technical team. Driven by a Congressional mandate to convert one- third of the military vehicles to driverless computer- driven mode by 2015, the Department of Defense who authorizes the event, believes the future holds great promise for autonomous vehicles to perform missions that put our men and women in uniform at risk. The Urban Challenge is the third in a series of Grand Challenge events. The first 2 races in 2004 and 2005 featured vehicles that navigated a 132+-mile course through the Mojave Desert. Although none of the vehicles completed the course in the first Grand Challenge, 5 teams completed the course in 2005. Insight Racing placed 12th in that event. First prize for the November 3rd race is $2 million for the vehicle that completes all of the missions on the urban course in the fastest time under 6 hours. The field was narrowed down to 36 participants from the original 89 entrants on the basis of site visits that demonstrated the viability and capability of each entrant.

Today, I needed a plumber. If someone from an plumbing company had been sending me 2 personal cards per year, I would have called them. On Monday, I need my car repaired. If someone from a shop had been sending me 2 personal cards per year, I would call them. Do you get the picture? No one does this. Probably 1 out of 250 business people send cards expressing appreciation for their customers' business. Just by sending one thank you card, you put yourself in the top 250 in your field. Put your picture in it and you are now in the top 1/2 of 1% of all business people. There are obviously other things that impact who gets the business . . . but it takes more than just being good.
