		<content:encoded><![CDATA[<P>Brothers Heimberg Publishing announced the release of a product that gives away potential million-dollar screenplay ideas ? 27,000 of them to be exact.  The Official Movie Plot Generator: 27,000 Hilarious Movie Plot Combinations (Brothers Heimberg Publishing, $15.95, October 2004; ISBN 0-9740439-1-5) offers movie possibilities that you create, spanning every genre of cinema from feel-good family fun to hard-boiled crime drama.  ?A macho NFL quarterback coaches a hapless little league baseball team in the heart of Amish country?Bigfoot tries to lose his virginity set to an all-star ?80's soundtrack featuring Air Supply, Journey and Survivor?A group of orthodox rabbis become pimps to save the local synagogueWritten by The Brothers Heimberg, Hollywood screenwriters themselves, this new title is part humor book, part game, and part creative tool.  It mixes the spirit of Mad Libs and Magnetic Poetry with Choose Your Own Adventure books and parlor games.  The publishers have put an interactive portion of the book for sampling on their website:  <a href="http://www.movieplotgenerator.com" target="_blank">http://www.movieplotgenerator.com</a>  "One of our goals was to create a book that people found immediately funny," said Justin Heimberg. </P><P> "We didn't want anyone to have to work too hard to get a laugh."  Jason Heimberg adds that "Many writers like us actually find The Official Movie Plot Generator to be a valuable creative tool in their work. Above all, it's a great gift item or diversion for anyone who likes to laugh a lot with little effort."????After 5 years in Hollywood being pitched countless clich? movie ideas by producers and studio executives, the Brothers Heimberg decided to make a book roasting the movie industry.  They realized producers and studios wanted the same trite, formulaic ideas, so they created a flipbook of hacked and ridiculous movie premises, providing 27,000 of these plots. The book has thirty pages of three flaps that you mix and match to create a plot.  Whether it's "a single mom fighting crime with the help of the ghost of Elvis" or "a burned-out hippie discovering a hidden talent for dance in the feel good comedy of the year," your favorite combination could be the next blockbuster.The book is available at <a href="http://www.movieplotgenerator.com" target="_blank">http://www.movieplotgenerator.com</a> as well as in bookstores, gift shops, video stores and select movie theaters nationwide. </P><P>Advance Media Praise- Newsweek:  "A coffee table masterpiece."- Publishers Weekly:  "Screenwriter or not, anyone will get a kick out of this simple but creative guide to coming up with movie plot ideas."- ScriptSales:  "The Official Movie Plot Generator is guaranteed to make you bust a gut.  It's a unique item for the coffee table, or a stocking-stuffer for the screenwriter in your life."Commentary from the Authors"In Hollywood, thousands of people spend their days getting paid to work on ideas that never see the light of day.  The movie industry is just a form of white collar welfare." - Justin  "After being told to be ?high-concept' over and over by producers, we created the ultimate high-concept ? this book."  - Justin "The book reflects the random, ridiculous, factory-like mentality of studio development" ? Jason"The Official Movie Plot Generator is easier than real reading." - Justin "It addresses the attention span of a generation raised on movies." - JasonAbout the Brothers HeimbergJason and Justin Heimberg are professional screenwriters in Los Angeles California.  They have 6 screenplays written together in development: "Leisure World" at New Line, "T&A" (aka Truth and Art) with Outlaw Productions and Intermedia Film, "Open Season" at Universal with Gary Ross, "Shock Jock" at Paramount, "Unnatural History" at Disney, with Jerry Bruckheimer executive producing, and "Kingpin 2" (sequel to Kingpin) at 2929 Entertainment.

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[<P>Chicago, IL (ContentDesk) December 2, 2004 -- Hurricane season may be officially behind us, but the threat of wide-spread power outages still loom in the horizon."Ice storms can snap power lines just as easily as any hurricane," said Jon Hoch, founder of Electric Generators Direct.com (<a href="http://www.electricgeneratorsdirect.com" target="_blank">http://www.electricgeneratorsdirect.com</a>), an online emergency generator superstore.Surviving an ice storm-induced power outage is a lot different from the recent hurricanes in Florida, warns Hoch.  First, even is you have a natural gas furnance, it will not operate without electricity to power the blower. Secondly, if you try coping without the heat, the decrease in temperature could freeze your water pipes, causing them burst and flood your home. And finally, the days are much shorter, and the need for artificial light is even more critical.According to Hoch, you simply need a portable generator and a power transfer system to protect yourself from the next power outage.  Many homeowners are unable or unwilling to wait out the next power outage, so they are converting their portable generators into emergency backup power systems. </P><P>Shop by Style (<a href="http://electricgeneratorsdirect.com/catalog/shopbystyle.php" target="_blank">http://electricgeneratorsdirect.com/catalog/shopbystyle.php</a>) Recreational generators are great for tailgating or camping. A power outage, however, is no picnic. Small recreational models will only power an appliance or two. Plus, you'll need to refill their small gas tanks every few hours.  Unless your a contactor using your generator on a daily basis, you don't need to go overboard with a jobsite model with a professional grade engine either. </P><P>"What's the point in purchasing a top-of-the line generator with all the bells and whistles that's only used a few times a year?" asks Hoch. Electric Generators Direct actually grades the style of every generator to help customers quickly find their perfect portable generator.  Hoch recommends purchasing a do-it-yourself grade model specifically designed for "Emergency Power" and reinvesting the savings into a generator with additional wattage. Shop by Watts (<a href="http://electricgeneratorsdirect.com/catalog/shopbywatts.php" target="_blank">http://electricgeneratorsdirect.com/catalog/shopbywatts.php</a>).  Yes, you can calculate your exact wattage needs through various online wattage calculators. </P><P>Electric Generators Direct recommends Power Protection's Home Wattage Wizard (<a href="http://www.powerprotection.org/powergeneration/homewattage.shtml" target="_blank">http://www.powerprotection.org/powergeneration/homewattage.shtml</a>). According to Hoch, the service is nice, but not always necessary. Electric Generators Direct has categorized their "Emergency Power" generators into three sizes: Mid-Sized,  Large and X-Large.  Mid-Sized generators (4,000-5,000 watts) will power your basic survival appliances.  Large generators (6,000-9,000 watts) will help make the power outage experience more peaceful, supplying power to even more appliance. </P><P>X-Large generators (10,000+ watts) supply enough electricity to restore power to small homes. Most include an electric starter, which is ideal for elderly homeowners who are unable to pull the cord.   Getting the generator is one thing. Getting the electricity into the house is another. According to Tom Kraeutler, host of the nationally syndicated Money Pit radio show (<a href="http://www.888moneypit.com" target="_blank">http://www.888moneypit.com</a>), you NEVER should back feed the electricity into the house. </P><P>If done incorrectly, you can electrocute utility workers repairing downed power lines. Kraeutler says extension cords are fine for small generators because you can only plug in one or two appliances. The most common way to use a portable electric generator is to place it outdoors, then run extension cords through an open window or door to the chosen appliances. Extension cords have several drawbacks. First, most extension cords can't be plugged into a furnace, well pump or ceiling-light fixture. </P><P>If the cords are too long, the resulting power drop may damage the generator and appliances. And, if they are placed under rugs or carpets, heat can buildup and spark a fire. For safety's sake, Kraeutler recommends hiring a licensed electrician to install a power transfer system that redistributes power from the generator to the circuit panel.  The power transfer system (starting around $200) reduces the need for multiple extension cords running from the generator to an individual appliance. It is installed beside the main electrical panel, and then it's connected to the circuits you'll want running during a blackout. </P><P>When the power goes out, you simply crank up the generator and run a single power cord from it to a transfer switch. "Once the generator is running, you can choose which appliances and circuits you want to use by simply flipping the switches," said Kraeutler. Most manual transfer switches also include built-in wattage meters, which keep track of what's being powered. Without them, you can overload the system, damaging your generator and appliances. "A typical power transfer system installation will take about 3-4 hours and cost around $200-$300," said Kraeutler. </P><P>"But it's an investment that will be fully appreciated the next time the power goes out."About Electric Generators Direct Electric Generators Direct (<a href="http://www.electricgeneratorsdirect.com" target="_blank">http://www.electricgeneratorsdirect.com</a>) is an online generator superstore owned and operated by Power Equipment Direct, Inc.

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[<P> <b>A Webmaster's Dream Come True - "Secret Money Generator"</b>Copyright 2005 by Willie CrawfordYou look at your beautiful website, getting a steady flowof visitors, and wonder how you can squeeze more money outof  it.  Maybe you're even getting a few sales, but youwant an easy way to generate even more.  You want a"secret money generator" if you will.I was in the same predicament 3 years ago. I had my siteat Chitterlings.com which was (and still is) selling acookbook that I wrote. I had days when I was gettingtens of thousands of visitors... </P><P>mostly looking forseasonal recipes. My challenge was to  find something tooffer my visitors who didn't  purchase my cookbook.  Mychallenge was to find  something else to offer myvisitors who DID purchase my cookbook :-)Somehow I came across a magazine jobber. He offered toallow me to sell magazines to my site visitors. Thissounded perfect. </P><P> There were literally hundreds ofdifferent titles that I could offer, and the profitmargin was VERY high.So I downloaded hundreds of images from a resource site,and set about building webpages describing all of thesemagazine.  I logged into my affiliate  program, and setup hundreds of order links.  It took me almost 2 weeks,but I though that the webpages I created were true worksof art.I linked to those pages, and notified members of myrecipe exchange list of this new site feature. I alsoposted teaser copy strategically throughout my website.Then the orders started coming in.Then the headaches began! Two to three times a  week Ireceived an email from the jobber telling me that prices,or magazine availability, had changed. So I had to gochange ALL of the affected pages. </P><P>When I received anorder, I had to manually forward the order to the jobberin a very specific format. He forwarded the orders tothe publishers, and 4-8 weeks later, my customers'subscriptions started.  In  the interim, I'd getdozens of emails asking for an update on theirsubscriptions. It just wasn't worth it... so I stoppedselling magazines :-)Fast-forward 3 years, and it took me less than 30minutes to set up another magazine shop on my website.It now  takes me about 5 minutes to update the  ENTIREsite which features over 1200 titles.Why am I telling you this and why do you care?  Well, YOUcan  now quickly and easily add a "store" to any of yourwebsites... </P><P>plugging in literally millions  of affiliateproducts.  Most major affiliate program managers offeringmore than a handful of products now offer webmastersdata feeds. These are generally provided as Comma SeparateValues (CSV) files... spreadsheet files. The webmastersuses various tools to extract this data and display it ontheir webpages.Countless brick and mortar companies now have  affiliateprogram. </P><P>Everyone from Office Depot, to furniture stores,to clothing manufacturers, will now allow you to sign upfor their affiliate program and offer their product toyour website visitors. No matter what the topic of yourwebsite, there are affiliate products that are ideal foryour visitors, and there's a good chance that there arealso data feeds available for these affiliate programs.The tool that I use to get data feeds onto my website isactually called "Secret Money Generator."  Secret MoneyGenerator is a program you install on your website. Youdesign a few basic templates using either the built incapabilities of the software, or use your favorite htmleditor.<b>Next, with the click of a button... the software:1) Uploads your templates to your server.2) Uploads your entire database to your server.3) Builds static html pages featuring the individualproducts.</b>The static html webpages are actually built right on theserver by the software.  You can see one of hundreds ofsuch sites I own and profit handsomely from at:<a href="http://Chitterlings.com/mags/" target="_blank"><a href="http://Chitterlings.com/mags/" target="_blank">http://Chitterlings.com/mags/</a></a>After I designed the templates, which took me about 20minutes to get them looking the way that I wanted themto, I uploaded them to my server. </P><P><b>Then with the click ofa button, the software built 1843 pages on my site in14 seconds.</b>Site maintenance merely involves getting updates  fromthe respective affiliate program manager, and thenuploading the updated csv file at whatever frequencyyou desire. <b>Then with the click of a button all 1843pages are automatically updated...it takes about 10seconds.</b>To update the look of your entire site, you just makechanges to your templates, upload these, and... again,with the click of a button update thousands of pagesin mere seconds!You can plug "a store" like this into any of your sites,or dozens of your sites, in very little time.  I spend afew hours on many of my sites getting them just the waythat I want them. Once things are set up it's largely onautopilot. </P><P>Since I now use affiliate programs I don'thave the tracking or order fulfillment headaches I hadyears ago with that first magazine site.  The magazineaffiliate program that I showed  you is even 2-tier, soI'm earning lifetime commissions on both my customersand those of other webmasters I  set up with a magazinesite... or any of a dozen other 2-tier programs I promote.You don't have to market inexpensive products from yoursites though. There are affiliate programs offeringproducts  selling for thousands of dollars EACH, and theyprovide data feeds too.  When you get Secret Money Generator,you also get a list of lots of places that offer you hugedata feeds. </P><P>There are data feeds that feature over 1million products :-)Take a look at "Secret Money Generator" now at:<a href="http://www.profitautomation.com/app/adtrack.asp?AdID=121605" target="_blank"><a href="http://www.profitautomation.com/app/adtrack.asp?AdID=121605" target="_blank">http://www.profitautomation.com/app/adtrack.asp?AdID=121605</a></a>It comes with a step-by-step video tutorial. The tutorialsare very nicely done in Camtasia. The software developersalso periodically conducts hands-on training workshops.  Iattended one in Orlando, Florida, January 28th - 30th,2005.There are others planned in Orlando and Las Vegas.  Theworkshops aren't required, but they are an excellent way tosee how other Secret Money Generator users are creatingsome awesome sites. </P><P>It's a great way to get to know thispowerful software inside-out.Whether your site is on... training your gold fish, carpetcleaning, or raising perfect children, you can plug ina Secret Money Generator" profit stream very easily.After you get your secret money generators up andrunning  you only need to point your website visitors tothem. You can also plug in  lots of powerful site contentand this will send you droves of  organic search enginetraffic.

It literally is averitable money machine.I've just shown you "a webmaster's dream come true." Nowyou have absolutely no excuse not to turn your websiteinto "a secret money generator."------------------------Willie Crawford is a corporate president, published author,seminar speaker and host, tele-seminar speaker and host,retired military officer, karate black belt, master networkmarketing trainer, and lifetime student of marketing. </P><P>He showspeople how to actually generate substantial income on-lineusing very simple, easily modeled systems.

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[<P>By now you have decided where you want to go and if you have read my ac adapter article you know whether or not you need to bring along some ac power adapters.  Unfortunately, like many things in life, there are no exact rules governing travel adapters.I recommend bringing power adapters even if you know your destination uses the same kind of ac plug.  Many tropical vacation destinations only have power outlets without a ground.  Therefore if you have a grounded plug (like on your laptop) you will need an ac power adapter to convert it for a non-grounded outlet.  North Americans please remember that many of your appliances with non-grounded plugs are polarized. </P><P>(ie. They can only fit in one way).  You may need an ac wall adapter in many countries as their outlets will not accept polarized plugs. If you are traveling to Great Britain you should be extra careful about which ac adapters you bring.  Britain doesn't have a standardized system for ac adaptors and actually have several different kinds of wall outlets, so you may need to purchase a travel adapter once you reach your hotel. </P><P> If you do, you can find foreign plug adapters at the local hardware store. These ac wall adapters are relatively cheap and I recommend bringing several with you.  Power adapters are easy to lose and fellow travelers will want to borrow an adapter from you.  Always carry at least one ac adapter with you at all times ? maybe in your backpack - because you don't want to be caught without a power adapter when you need it. And please don't forget these electrical adapter plugs do NOT convert electricity. </P><P> Please take a look at my Power Converter page for more information.. </P>]]></content:encoded>

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[<P>The effects of Hurricane Charley and Frances are being felt far beyond Florida. The tag team tandem just put the entire portable generator marketplace on backorder. In Ohio, Tony Holder tried to purchase a generator at his local home improvement store, only to find the shelves empty with the entire inventory on a truck headed south. In Florida, new generators are as scarce as snowballs, with the demand overshadowing the supply. Customers are forced to wait in long lines with lottery numbers, hoping for a "chance" to get one of the few arriving generators. </P><P>Many customers, who were simply unable or unwilling to wait, jumped online to purchase generators directly from the manufactures. Even this supply evaporated.  Electric Generators Direct.com (<a href="http://www.electricgeneratorsdirect.com" target="_blank">http://www.electricgeneratorsdirect.com</a>), an online generator superstore that dropships directly from the manufacturer's warehouses, is completely sold out. The company is now accepting backorders on all new generators. According to Jon Hoch, founder of Electric Generators Direct, generator manufacturers build enough inventory to weather a major event. </P><P>Even after Hurricane Charley blew ashore, most manufacturers had some inventory still available. Hurricane Frances, however, took every remaining piece. This isn't the first time a one-two punch has put the generator marketplace on backorder.  Just last year, the Great Northeast Blackout exhausted the surplus inventory traditionally reserved for hurricane season. By the time Hurricane Isabel hit the East Coast one month later, every available generator in the country evaporated. </P><P>Like last year, Hoch estimates that it will take generator manufacturers several months to fully replenish supplies throughout the country. It could take even longer if suppliers run out of critical component parts. "Why wait for retailers to restock their shelves and hope to get one?" asks Hoch. If you want a generator before the next storm hits, he recommends ordering direct from the factory. The generator will be shipped directly from the assembly line to your door, bypassing the warehouse. </P><P> According to Hoch, the backorder list grows longer every minute. If you wait to order, it could take a month or more to receive your generator.

Named the "TriAnchor," the combined Tricolor/Anchor LED light provides sailboats with a compelling solution to the long-standing issue of power consumption and reliability. Anchor lights have long been seen as necessary power drains, as they use up to 25W of battery power during a time when the engine is not running to replenish battery banks. With the OGM TriAnchor's power consumption at only 2.16W (0.18 amps), boats at anchor can ensure anchoring safety all night while limiting power drainage. The low power draw also allows for much smaller wiring to be used up the mast of a sailboat. </P><P> "OGM's TriAnchor light is a direct outcome of our customer's feedback," said Hobie Caldwell, OGM's co-founder and CEO. "Masthead lighting has been very high on our customer's need list and we've listened to them for the design of the TriAnchor." With a low profile of 4 inches in height and a rugged housing using o-rings for complete waterproof protection, these lights will outlast any traditional masthead tricolor or anchor lights several times over. "I sure wish I had one while I was circumnavigating," said Lee Gunter, of Clear Lake Shores, TX of his 3-year voyage around the world several years earlier in his Lyle Hess, s/v New World. "The top of the mast is the last place I want to be at sea or in port.  The low power draw is fantastic."????"Lots of sailors out there want to limit their time at the top of their mast for repairs", said Caldwell, "We've built the TriAnchor to allow sailors to do just that."OGM's Argo Navis TriAnchor is currently in offshore testing with volume availability expected in November 2003.About OGM (<a href="http://www.orcagreen.com" title="www.orcagreen.com" target="_blank">www.orcagreen.com</a>)Headquartered in Kemah, Texas, OGM designs and markets LED Navigation lights and bulb-replacement inserts for power and sailboats in its vision of bringing emerging and environmentally conscious technologies to the marine market. </P><P>OGM introduced its first product, named "Argo NavisTM Series", in June of 2003 and now has a line of low power LED navigation lights which include complete lights (in waterproof housings) as well as a series of bulb-replacement inserts which are a snap-in replacement for the Aqua Signal(R) 25 series. OGM's line of products brings this new technology to the boater, addressing their biggest issues of power consumption and reliability. The company plans to establish itself as the leader of LED technology in the marine market with innovative, reliable products based on customer input. The Argo Navis Series utilizes a patent-pending design for power regulation, which ensures the lights burn at full brightness as battery voltage drops from 16V down to 3V. Products are currently available online at OGM's website, <a href="http://www.orcagreen.com" title="www.orcagreen.com" target="_blank">www.orcagreen.com</a>, and at several Texas local chandleries, boatyards, and marinas with international expansion underway.. </P>]]></content:encoded>

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[<P>There are many different techniques that you will need to learn before you can master the kitesurfing sport. One of these techniques is learning how to feel the power of the kite and learning to control that power. Part of learning how to feel the power of the kite is leaning how to control the estimated surface of the kite and the speed of the kite. You can both use and learn how to feel the power of the kite through the control of the projected surface and thought the control of the speed of the kite. Practice until you are comfortable with both techniques and only then try to kitesurf.First of all, learn how to feel the power of the kite and control it trough the control of the projected surface of the kite. </P><P>With the four lines inflatable kite you can reduce the power of the kite by letting the front lines loose and through that adjusting the projected surface. With the four lines foil kite you can reduce the power of the kite by letting the center line loose and through that adjusting the projected surface. In both cases a kitesurfer can fix the kite in place at a specific projected surface. Spend some time learning these how to feel the power of the kite techniques and practicing them.The next step in learning how to feel the power of the kite is to learn and practice to control the flying speed of the kite. You should learn both how to decrease and increase the kite's power. </P><P>This technique of controlling the flying speed of the kite is easier to learn, as compared to controlling the projected surface, and is considered a somewhat better way how to feel the power of the kite and control that power. Though it is not that easy to reduce the power of the kite through this technique, increasing the power of the kite is very easy. All you have to do is just fly your kit and, depending on the wind position, use different wave patterns. With this method it is much easier to learn how to feel the power of the kite and to actually stay in control.. </P>]]></content:encoded>

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[<P>Hurricane Charley is quickly teaching homeowners a valuable lesson about taking electricity for granted.  The Category Four hurricane knocked out power to nearly a million homes in Florida, and many residents are still living without power.  Homeowners are now using portable generators in record numbers to safely restore power to their homes.  "Getting a generator is one thing," says Jon Hoch, founder of Electric Generators Direct.com (<a href="http://www.electricgeneratorsdirect.com" target="_blank">http://www.electricgeneratorsdirect.com</a>). "Getting the electricity into the house is another."According to Hoch, extension cords are fine for small generators because you can only plug in one or two appliances. </P><P> The most common way to use a portable electric generator is to place it outdoors, then run extension cords through an open window or door to the chosen appliances.  Extension cords have several drawbacks. First, most extension cords can't be plugged into a furnace, well pump or ceiling-light fixture. If the cords are too long, the resulting power drop may damage the generator and appliances. And if they are placed under rugs or carpets, heat can buildup and spark a fire. </P><P> "Be sure to use appropriately sized power cords to carry the electric load," said Hoch. "Typically, the thicker the cord, the more electricity it can carry." If you want to use extension cords, consider getting a Gen-Cord (<a href="http://www.electricgeneratorsdirect.com/catalog/accessories.php" target="_blank">http://www.electricgeneratorsdirect.com/catalog/accessories.php</a>). You simply plug the all-weather cord into your 20- or 30-amp generator outlet and then run it inside. The plug on the inside splits into three 120-volt outlets, where you can plug in several household appliances or additional extension cords. For safety's sake, Hoch recommends hiring a licensed electrician to install a power transfer system that redistributes power from the generator to the home's circuit box. </P><P> The power transfer system (starting at $200) reduces the need for multiple extension cords running from the generator to specific appliances, and it eliminates the risk of electrical "back feed" injuring utility workers working on downed power lines. It is installed beside the main electrical panel, and then it's connected to the circuits you'll want running during a blackout. When the power goes out, you simply crank up the generator and run a single power cord from it to a transfer switch.  "Once the generator is running, you can choose which appliances and circuits you want to use by simply flipping the switches," said Hoch. It's important to keep track of what's being powered, warns Hoch, because the transfer switch is often wired into more circuits than the generator can handle all at once. </P><P>  "A typical power transfer system installation will take less than two hours and cost around $100-$200," said Hoch. "But it's an investment that will be fully appreciated the next time the power goes out."Electric Generators Direct (<a href="http://www.electricgeneratorsdirect.com" target="_blank">http://www.electricgeneratorsdirect.com</a>) is an online generator superstore owned and operated by Power Equipment Direct, Inc.
