Common Forum / WEAR DIU ID CARD
« on: April 05, 2012, 03:01:51 PM »
It is our recent observation that some outsiders were moving here and there inside or beside the Campus and it may create problem(s). We already faced some problems near the campus but it was very difficult for us to identify our student’s involvement with those incidents. If our students wear ID card regularly we can easily overcome the crisis. It is our moral responsibilities to explain importance to wear DIU ID card and encourage students/others to use it in the DIU campus. Your sincere cooperation is solicited in this regards.

How to get a good physique?
A perfectly toned body is the dream of many teens. They join gyms and do stretching and weight lifting exercises to get a perfect body. But, if they really want to achieve their aim, then they should aware of the consequences they have to face if they chose wrong exercises which do not suit their physique. If they have a weak physique, then they should start with mild bodybuilding exercises with proper diet and then they can slowly adopt rigorous exercises.
Nowadays, bodybuilding clothes and apparel have become the fashion statement among teens. If somebody is participating in a sports event or joining the gym class, then the first expenditure they would like to make is getting some good body building clothes with fitting shoes. The body building clothes are sold in various ranges and any one can buy such apparels without spending much.
Few years back, while working out, the teens wear clothes which are comfortable. Normally, they chose some cut off jeans, tee shirts or even sports jersey as comfortable clothes. So, every one looked the same as they chose the same type of clothes for their workouts. But, today, the scenario has changed. Now every one have the option of wearing a variety of clothes which shows off their muscles and even they can improve their looks with these body building clothes.
Why teen bodybuilding is important?
Teen bodybuilding is a healthy way to improve ones physique and personality. Body building not only improves physique, but it also improves the patience and determination among youngsters. Only those with discipline and goal can achieve a good-looking body.
But, a good-looking body is only temporary and when they come of out of their teens, they may have to adjust to the changes which will appear on their body. So, they should aim to maintain a healthy and fit body than a tozed body.
When they decide to build their body, they should have self-discipline and a regular exercise regime. If they want to do more exercises today and will leave some of them tomorrow, then that does not form a healthy routine. So, the best thing is to stick to a strict exercise and diet regime in order to get the desired result. The more dedication to perform exercises regularly will bring good results.

First of all, one should figure out how many calories they may need and what type of foods they want to include in getting the necessary calories. Then, they can choose from a variety of fruits, vegetables, whole grains and protein sources which will meet their calorific requirements.
Female Bodybuilding:
The main distinction in bodybuilding in a man and a woman is their metabolism. A woman normally gains muscle in a shorter time than a man. Also, fat metabolism is slower in woman than man. So, she has to carefully choose her body building diet that suits her metabolism. As a result, woman body builders never become bulky and they have to take some synthetic hormones to gain muscles.
Testosterone is a hormone that helps men to increase the size of their muscles. As women do not produce this hormone, they have to take synthetic testosterone with some female bodybuilding diet. This is also the reason behind men having bigger muscles than women.
Types of Female Bodybuilding Exercises:
Female bodybuilding exercises include cardiovascular exercises, running on a treadmill and varying weight lifting exercises. Cardiovascular exercises help females to lose fat and the weight lifting exercises help them build muscles. Even some additional stretching and flexibility exercises also work to their advantage.
Before undertaking a bodybuilding program, one has to decide their goal and their bodybuilding programs should suit their goals. As women tend to gain fat more than men, they should choose programs which reduce their fat and cholesterol with healthy foods. Cardiovascular exercises are of great help in reducing fat and cholesterol.
Do's and Don'ts in Female Bodybuilding:
The more the intake of fat, the more the body has to work. That is, if the body cannot burn the calories of fat consumed, then it will be stored in your body as muscles. So, while eating women should carefully choose their food which best suits their ambition.
Building a healthy body makes a woman lose weight and also she is benefited with great looks and fitness. But, many women do not like bodybuilding as they think that it only suits men. But, in contrast, body building makes a beautifully sculpted body for a woman.
So, bodybuilding can be done for either gaining health or to participate in competitions. Generally, women are not comfortable with the idea of having masculine arms, legs and shoulders. Also, it is very difficult for women to build muscles without the help of synthetic hormones. In order to gain muscles, a female body builder should consult a trainer or a dietician, before taking any steroids as hormonal supplements.
Bodybuilding diet should have large amount of proteins and carbohydrates with less fat. This is because workouts needs lots of energy which is supplied by carbohydrates and proteins help in the building of muscles. So, carefully chosen diet with proper workouts can make wonders in female bodybuilding. Also, women should not start doing all the exercises at one go as they may hurt themselves in doing so. They should gradually start doing the exercises one by one and their body should adopt the type of exercises they are doing. More workouts means more stress on your muscles, so they should follow an exercise regime which best suits you without wearing out their muscles.
Male Bodybuilding:
Male bodybuilding is a sport admired and followed by men and women since a long period. Achieving muscle mass and a beautiful body is the aim of many in their life. Many people on their adolescent age want to build their body muscles to show off.
Advantage of Being a Male Bodybuilder:
Male bodybuilders have many advantages over female bodybuilders as they produce the hormone testosterone which stimulates muscle mass and hence with little effort they acquire a good-looking body. Due to testosterone, the bone growth and the muscle building becomes easy for male and hence they can work out easily and effectively to build their muscles.
Every man has to plan their workouts before following any training program for bodybuilding. They should set their goals and should work towards it. Proper rest with good nutritional supplements is also needed to build a healthy body.
They can plan their workouts every alternate day as in this way the body gets sufficient rest. Also, the worn out muscles will recover and hence adapt the exercise regime easily. Also, on every workout one should concentrate on different parts of the muscle group. Strengthening of overall muscles only will produce desired results.
Be it male or female, those who wish to build their body should keep a record. They should note down the increase in their muscle size and hence should choose the correct exercise regime to increase the muscle mass. If some exercise is found to be not effective for a couple of weeks, then they should try on new exercises.
Bodybuilding Supplements For Men:
Bodybuilding supplements for men are available everywhere and there are plenty of options available in these supplements. But, before throwing your money in to such expensive bodybuilding supplements, you should thoroughly analyze the needs of your body and the type of supplement you may lack. If you are following a bad diet with bodybuilding supplements, then you cannot derive many benefits from these supplements. A proper balanced diet with nutritional supplements is the mantra for a good-looking body.
If you want lose more fat, and want to build and sculpt your muscles, then this can be simply done with a bodybuilding routine and a good diet. Supplements to burn fat and appetite suppressers can be taken along with the diet. This will help you to reduce fat and at the same time build some good muscle mass.
You can undergo weight training and bodybuilding routine to maintain your fitness. Your body may respond excellently in the initial stages and then the progress may slow down. Whenever you feel that the progress is slow, you should try to change the exercise regime and then you will yourself see the difference. But, you should not do anything in a hurry and every thing has to done in a slow and steady manner. Once, you gain the desired body muscles then you have to continue doing the exercises to maintain the fitness levels. Leaving it in the middle will make you sick and all your hard work will go vain.
Bodybuilding Routine:
When you decide to make a bodybuilding routine, you generally stick to it in the beginning. The results in the beginning are quite noticeable and so you will be more attracted towards the routine. But, after gaining some considerable muscle, the body building does not progress at a fast pace as it was before. That is because your body slows down after gaining some muscle and it only maintains the muscle size after that period. So, you may lose interest in the routine and may want to give up everything. But, that is not the right thing to do.
Initial stages of bodybuilding routine:
When the body gains some muscle, then the metabolism slows down and sometimes it comes to a standstill. So, you may get frustrated and want to leave the entire exercise regime. But, on the other hand if you want to maintain your health and the beautiful body that you have got with the initial rigorous exercise routine, then you have to continue the bodybuilding routine. Otherwise, the hard work you have put all those months will be futile and even you may become sick.
But, what makes the body build itself in the initial stages of the bodybuilding routine? If you can think of the answer then you will not lose hope. May be before the routine, your body may not be that much fit and after the workout routine, it may have gained the fitness. Also, once your body adapts your routine, it gets used to the exercises and hence it may become less effective. So, the solution is you have to change your body building routine.
Change your workout regime:
Whenever you introduce a new workout routine, your bodybuilding will progress, do you know why? This is because your body has not learned the new technique and hence will work effectively. So, the result will be an increase in the muscle size and strength with a toned body. But, you should never be in a hurry to change your routine.
If you start doing new exercises at a fast pace, then you may injure your muscles. So, you should not change the whole routine at a go. You should keep doing some exercises which you think produce the desired results and for the rest you can introduce new exercise regime.
First of all, introduce a new bodybuilding regime and continue doing it only when you feel that it is working quite well. You should check the results periodically and if you are satisfied with the workouts then you can keep them. Otherwise, stick to some new routine which will give you the desired result.
This way all your exercises can change and you can again adapt them after few months and it may work well now. You have to keep the initial exercises for at least six to seven weeks and then you can change it if you have not noticed any change in your body building pattern. Bodybuilding routines are different for different people. Those who design them should design it in such a way that it brings best results in the shortest time.
Bodybuilding Equipments:
The bodybuilding equipment should be bought according to the needs of the body builder. If you want to gain muscle mass, then you may have to buy a set of free weights. Free weights are least expensive and are more effective in building muscle mass. Otherwise, you can join a gym and there you can use these free weights.
Free weights are ideal to any body builder as they can gradually increase the weight and thus allowing the body to develop muscles in a proper pace. Also, there are many different types of free weights available in the market.

But, a good-looking body is only temporary and when they come of out of their teens, they may have to adjust to the changes which will appear on their body. So, they should aim to maintain a healthy and fit body than a tozed body.
When they decide to build their body, they should have self-discipline and a regular exercise regime. If they want to do more exercises today and will leave some of them tomorrow, then that does not form a healthy routine. So, the best thing is to stick to a strict exercise and diet regime in order to get the desired result. The more dedication to perform exercises regularly will bring good results.
Bodybuilders require more calories as they spend more in workouts. So, eating the right amount of food only can help them to build their body to the desired level. First of all, one should figure out how many calories they may need and what type of foods they want to include in getting the necessary calories. Then, they can choose from a variety of fruits, vegetables, whole grains and protein sources which will meet their calorific requirements.
Female Bodybuilding:
The main distinction in bodybuilding in a man and a woman is their metabolism. A woman normally gains muscle in a shorter time than a man. Also, fat metabolism is slower in woman than man. So, she has to carefully choose her body building diet that suits her metabolism. As a result, woman body builders never become bulky and they have to take some synthetic hormones to gain muscles.
Testosterone is a hormone that helps men to increase the size of their muscles. As women do not produce this hormone, they have to take synthetic testosterone with some female bodybuilding diet. This is also the reason behind men having bigger muscles than women.
Types of Female Bodybuilding Exercises:
Female bodybuilding exercises include cardiovascular exercises, running on a treadmill and varying weight lifting exercises. Cardiovascular exercises help females to lose fat and the weight lifting exercises help them build muscles. Even some additional stretching and flexibility exercises also work to their advantage.
Before undertaking a bodybuilding program, one has to decide their goal and their bodybuilding programs should suit their goals. As women tend to gain fat more than men, they should choose programs which reduce their fat and cholesterol with healthy foods. Cardiovascular exercises are of great help in reducing fat and cholesterol.
Do's and Don'ts in Female Bodybuilding:
The more the intake of fat, the more the body has to work. That is, if the body cannot burn the calories of fat consumed, then it will be stored in your body as muscles. So, while eating women should carefully choose their food which best suits their ambition.
Building a healthy body makes a woman lose weight and also she is benefited with great looks and fitness. But, many women do not like bodybuilding as they think that it only suits men. But, in contrast, body building makes a beautifully sculpted body for a woman.
So, bodybuilding can be done for either gaining health or to participate in competitions. Generally, women are not comfortable with the idea of having masculine arms, legs and shoulders. Also, it is very difficult for women to build muscles without the help of synthetic hormones. In order to gain muscles, a female body builder should consult a trainer or a dietician, before taking any steroids as hormonal supplements.
Bodybuilding diet should have large amount of proteins and carbohydrates with less fat. This is because workouts needs lots of energy which is supplied by carbohydrates and proteins help in the building of muscles. So, carefully chosen diet with proper workouts can make wonders in female bodybuilding. Also, women should not start doing all the exercises at one go as they may hurt themselves in doing so. They should gradually start doing the exercises one by one and their body should adopt the type of exercises they are doing. More workouts means more stress on your muscles, so they should follow an exercise regime which best suits you without wearing out their muscles.
Male Bodybuilding:
Male bodybuilding is a sport admired and followed by men and women since a long period. Achieving muscle mass and a beautiful body is the aim of many in their life. Many people on their adolescent age want to build their body muscles to show off.
Advantage of Being a Male Bodybuilder:
Male bodybuilders have many advantages over female bodybuilders as they produce the hormone testosterone which stimulates muscle mass and hence with little effort they acquire a good-looking body. Due to testosterone, the bone growth and the muscle building becomes easy for male and hence they can work out easily and effectively to build their muscles.
Every man has to plan their workouts before following any training program for bodybuilding. They should set their goals and should work towards it. Proper rest with good nutritional supplements is also needed to build a healthy body.
They can plan their workouts every alternate day as in this way the body gets sufficient rest. Also, the worn out muscles will recover and hence adapt the exercise regime easily. Also, on every workout one should concentrate on different parts of the muscle group. Strengthening of overall muscles only will produce desired results.
Be it male or female, those who wish to build their body should keep a record. They should note down the increase in their muscle size and hence should choose the correct exercise regime to increase the muscle mass. If some exercise is found to be not effective for a couple of weeks, then they should try on new exercises.
Bodybuilding Supplements For Men:
Bodybuilding supplements for men are available everywhere and there are plenty of options available in these supplements. But, before throwing your money in to such expensive bodybuilding supplements, you should thoroughly analyze the needs of your body and the type of supplement you may lack. If you are following a bad diet with bodybuilding supplements, then you cannot derive many benefits from these supplements. A proper balanced diet with nutritional supplements is the mantra for a good-looking body.
If you want lose more fat, and want to build and sculpt your muscles, then this can be simply done with a bodybuilding routine and a good diet. Supplements to burn fat and appetite suppressers can be taken along with the diet. This will help you to reduce fat and at the same time build some good muscle mass.
You can undergo weight training and bodybuilding routine to maintain your fitness. Your body may respond excellently in the initial stages and then the progress may slow down. Whenever you feel that the progress is slow, you should try to change the exercise regime and then you will yourself see the difference. But, you should not do anything in a hurry and every thing has to done in a slow and steady manner. Once, you gain the desired body muscles then you have to continue doing the exercises to maintain the fitness levels. Leaving it in the middle will make you sick and all your hard work will go vain.
Bodybuilding Routine:
When you decide to make a bodybuilding routine, you generally stick to it in the beginning. The results in the beginning are quite noticeable and so you will be more attracted towards the routine. But, after gaining some considerable muscle, the body building does not progress at a fast pace as it was before. That is because your body slows down after gaining some muscle and it only maintains the muscle size after that period. So, you may lose interest in the routine and may want to give up everything. But, that is not the right thing to do.
Initial stages of bodybuilding routine:
When the body gains some muscle, then the metabolism slows down and sometimes it comes to a standstill. So, you may get frustrated and want to leave the entire exercise regime. But, on the other hand if you want to maintain your health and the beautiful body that you have got with the initial rigorous exercise routine, then you have to continue the bodybuilding routine. Otherwise, the hard work you have put all those months will be futile and even you may become sick.
But, what makes the body build itself in the initial stages of the bodybuilding routine? If you can think of the answer then you will not lose hope. May be before the routine, your body may not be that much fit and after the workout routine, it may have gained the fitness. Also, once your body adapts your routine, it gets used to the exercises and hence it may become less effective. So, the solution is you have to change your body building routine.
Change your workout regime:
Whenever you introduce a new workout routine, your bodybuilding will progress, do you know why? This is because your body has not learned the new technique and hence will work effectively. So, the result will be an increase in the muscle size and strength with a toned body. But, you should never be in a hurry to change your routine.
If you start doing new exercises at a fast pace, then you may injure your muscles. So, you should not change the whole routine at a go. You should keep doing some exercises which you think produce the desired results and for the rest you can introduce new exercise regime.
First of all, introduce a new bodybuilding regime and continue doing it only when you feel that it is working quite well. You should check the results periodically and if you are satisfied with the workouts then you can keep them. Otherwise, stick to some new routine which will give you the desired result.
This way all your exercises can change and you can again adapt them after few months and it may work well now. You have to keep the initial exercises for at least six to seven weeks and then you can change it if you have not noticed any change in your body building pattern. Bodybuilding routines are different for different people. Those who design them should design it in such a way that it brings best results in the shortest time.
Bodybuilding Equipments:
The bodybuilding equipment should be bought according to the needs of the body builder. If you want to gain muscle mass, then you may have to buy a set of free weights. Free weights are least expensive and are more effective in building muscle mass. Otherwise, you can join a gym and there you can use these free weights.
Free weights are ideal to any body builder as they can gradually increase the weight and thus allowing the body to develop muscles in a proper pace. Also, there are many different types of free weights available in the market.
Type of equipments to build body muscles:
If you want to build large body muscles, then the ideal equipment is a weight bench which comes with a pair of barbells weighing ten to forty pounds. You can start doing the workout from ten pounds and then can increase the weight according to the capacity of the body.
But, if you are not specific on the weight and want to carry the equipments wherever you go, then dumbbells are the best choice. It can be carried anywhere and it will become an ideal addition to your bodybuilding equipments. If you are suffering from arthritis or back pain, then you can try aquatic dumbbells where you will stand in the pool and use the dumbbells. In this way, your body weight is supported by water and hence you may not feel the stress on your muscles.
Arm sculpting is another fantasy which everyone wishes to follow. So, the ideal equipment for this workout is push-up stands and pull-up bars. To make it bulk, just add some reps twice a week and for toning you can add small number of reps frequently. Dip stands are also excellent bodybuilding equipment especially for those who want to strengthen their ads. This equipment will give you extra wrist support and hence you can even do some of your favorite exercises.
Never overdo your exercises:
You may have bought very expensive bodybuilding equipments and you want to make maximum use of it. But, remember you cannot tax your muscles beyond limit. If you want to workout daily with your bodybuilding equipments, then you may injure your muscles. Your muscles need at least 3 days to recuperate. So, proper rest is necessary between each workout.
Also, you cannot overdo your exercise regime as it may give adverse effects. Depending on your fitness, you should start doing your workouts for three to four times a week. Once you become stronger and feels flexible doing the workouts, then you can continue doing them for long hours. Generally, a workout of 1 to 2 hours is good. Never try to overdo any exercises in your bodybuilding equipments as if you get injured, then you may never want to try the equipment again. Then, you may have to throw away the costly equipments that you have bought with so much hope. So, moderate exercise in your bodybuilding equipment is the key to a healthy and beautiful body.

Under the Federal Tax Code for tax exempt status, a nonprofit corporation must be organized and operate for some religious, charitable, educational, literary, or scientific purpose (defined below) permitted under this code. The Company Corporation will prepare your nonprofit articles of incorporation pursuant to the IRS code.
A nonprofit corporation may also be formed for other purposes pursuant to different sections of the IRS code. In order to qualify for federal tax-exempt status as a nonprofit under a different section of the code, your corporation must comply with the specific requirements of that federal tax code section. If you would like The Company Corporation to prepare your nonprofit pursuant to a different code of the IRS provision, please let us know at the time of placing your order.
Religious is defined as general types of religious organizations and more formal institutionalized churches.
Charitable is defined as providing services beneficial to the public interest.
Scientific research is defined as research for public interest; however, research incidental to commercial or industrial operations does not qualify.
Literary is defined as writing; publishing and the distribution of books which are directed toward promoting the public interest rather than engaging in commercial book writing and selling.
Educational is defined as a broad purpose that allows instruction for both self-development and the benefit of the community.
Contact an attorney or an accountant if you have further questions about your company's purpose.

Examples include: churches, hospitals, schools, colleges and universities.
By contrast, private foundations typically have a single major source of funding (usually gifts from one family or corporation rather than funding from many sources). Many offer grants to other charitable organizations and to individuals, rather than operate charitable programs.

Be Alert / Cell-phone induced health hazards
« on: December 27, 2011, 09:03:35 AM »
In dealing with the subject "Is mobile phone safe?", I shall begin by reiterating an important fact as to why truth about cell phone radiation is hidden from public and thereafter state the science of cell phone radiation and refer to recent studies on the safety of cell phone. Two comments that "WHO' s labeling of mobile phone radiation as a "possibility of its being carcinogenic" is probably generating apprehension among mobile phone users" and he thought, "this is a bit premature" and that "the popular media make it sound much more dangerous than it really is, and cause an unnecessary scare" need to be addressed.
First, unlike various issues in physics, which are proven by mathematics and then experimentally verified, health science is far from perfect. Health science as of now relies mostly on statistical models based on experiments with animals and often times on trial and error. Why should pharmaceutical companies selling medicines and industrial enterprises marketing products reveal such research findings as provide ample evidence to establish that their products could cause health problems? Revelation of unbiased truth does not make commercial sense at all. In many cases, pharmaceutical companies are to market, with prior permission from their regulatory bodies, medicinal products that are likely to cause health problems and even in a few percentage of cases death to patients taking them, because those medicines cure diseases that are otherwise incurable. Doctors prescribing them always consider if the beneficial effects of the medicines outweigh possible adverse side effects. In case of industrial products, no such compulsion to use them exists if the products are hazardous.
Verily, cell phone is an integral part of modern civilization. We can't part with it, but by taking some precautionary measures, exposure to radiation can be minimized. When there is apprehension about health risk, is it not necessary to take precautionary measures to avoid risk as far as practicable? Will it be prudent not to take any action and continue using cell phone without any precaution, particularly because some studies found no definite connection or link between cell phone use and cancer and other health problems? When our health is the issue, we must look at which organizations have conducted those studies and if the findings are conclusive. Are the companies marketing cell phones display any warning? Yes, they now incorporate a paragraph in users' manual warning people not to make any body contact while using cell phones. Various companies record various safe distances ranging from 1 inch to 0.8 inch that users should keep cell phones away from their ear in order to minimize exposure to radiation to a level that may not be harmful. How many of us care to read manuals and find out if there is any warning?
Human mind is not conditioned to look for warning sign from the jumble of users' manual. Trillion dollar Telephone Industry is aware of this and as such it does not post warning sign on the product itself, but it does only in the users' manual, which very few will care to read. Those who read and those who hear from others are least bothered to take warning seriously as they see no discernible health problems the users are suffering from in the short term. The bigger problem to ensure public safety is that, apart from public apathy to gain insight into hazards from environmental degradation and electronic gadgets, industrial enterprises, particularly the trillion dollar cellular phone industry deliberately hide from public domain many research findings that their scientists came up with.
How many of us know about Frey Effect named after the American Neuroscientist Allan H. Frey, which is a syndrome that manifests in audible clicks induced by pulsed/ modulated microwave frequencies? The clicks are generated directly inside the human head without the need of any receiving electronic device. The cell phone industry very well know two renowned scientists in the field of radiation- Om Gandhi and Franz Adlkofer who worked for the industry and did extensive research on the effects of radio frequencies on human health. These two scientists who worked for the industry later fell foul of the latter because they published a few papers, which the industry did not like and found deleterious to the promotion of cell phones. Cover-up of scientific truth is a strategy that many industries employ when they found that revelation of certain research findings might harm promotion of their products and even could implicate them in huge litigation's in future.
This happened to tobacco industry. Pharmaceutical companies also apply this strategy as and when necessary. Although, there are innumerable instances, I just wish to cite one. As is widely known, GlaxoSmithKline (GSK) Plc. is a global multidimensional pharmaceutical and healthcare company, formed in 2000 through the merger and acquisition of a number of companies, Glaxo Plc being the parent company. It had invented and marketed ranitidine, a H2 blocker under the trade name zantac possibly in 1970s.The medicine was prescribed to treat peptic ulcers and other abdominal conditions in the upper GI tract. The medicine had been one of the best seller in the modern pharmaceutical history and generating considerable revenue for the company since it had been first marketed, until of course the arrival of proton pump inhibitors (PPIs). In 1982, Dr. Barry John Marshall and Dr. J. Robin Warren of Perth, Western Australia found a bacteria later named Helicobacter Pylori (H. pylori) in the stomachs of patients with gastritis and gastric and duodenal ulcers and cured them with combination of antibiotics and acid reducers like H2 blocker, most effective bein

Business / 8 Steps to Create Your Business Identity:
« on: December 16, 2011, 01:29:00 PM »
Creating a business identity is an essential task to open your doors for business, or "hang out your shingle", if you prefer. Here's an orderly and logical sequence of steps you can take to get your home business up and running by creating its identity.
Before You Establish Your Business Identity, these steps will help you get the doors of your home business open. However, before you reach this point, you need to have already:
Brainstormed your business, have a clear idea of what you will be doing and who your customers are. Completed at least an informal or preliminary business plan or a well-thought-out business plan outline. Considered the benefits and disadvantages of the available legal forms your business entity could operate under and selected the form of business that is best for you - at least initially: sole proprietorship; partnership; limited liability Corporation (LLC); C Corporation; or S Corporation. Most home business entrepreneurs start out as a sole proprietorship, but you need to know what the risks are before you do so. Checked any legal requirements or zoning restrictions against operating the home business you want to start in your homeowners' association (if you belong to one), your city or town and your state.
Getting Your Business Identity Established:
Once you've done your homework and you're ready to get your home business started, here are 8 steps you can follow and use as a checklist to establish an identity for your home business:
01. Brainstorming Your Business Name and Tagline:
Brainstorm Your Business Name and Tagline Your business name and its tagline can create excitement and buzz for your home business and will be an important part of your later marketing efforts.
02. Establishing an Address and Phone Numbers for Your Home Business:
Completing this step early means that your home address and phone number won't become public record when you do register your business.
03. Checking into an Employer ID Number with the IRS:
Even if you're not required to have an EIN, getting one is often a good idea. For one thing, it makes it easier to open a bank account in your business name and it will help keep your social security number private.
04. Opening a Business Bank Account:
Part of having a business identity is to keep your business finances separate from your personal finances. There's just no better way to do that than to open a business checking account.
05. Creating Your Business Logo:
A good logo goes a long way in establishing your business identity. Your logo should reflect what your business does. It should be unique, eye-catching and easy to identify.
06. Ordering Your Business Cards:
Since a business card is often your first impression on a prospect, you don't want to jeopardize getting new business because you didn't bother to have your business cards professionally printed.
07. Creating and Ordering Your Business Stationery:
You can buy stationery or create it yourself. Again, you can use tools like Microsoft Publisher for this purpose, and plenty of design templates are provided to make creating custom stationery easy.
08. Establishing an Online Presence for Your Business:
Websites serve as a useful form of inexpensive advertising for most businesses. Even the most basic of websites can work well as your online brochure. You may also decide to set up a blog for your home business - either in conjunction with, or instead of, a home business website.
Once you've completed these basic business identity steps, you will have effectively "hung out your shingle" for starting your home business. You're bound to make adjustments from time to time - that's all part of having your own home business. But a big hurdle will have been cleared and you can begin making and spending money under your business name. In essence, you are giving your home business a "life of its own".

Liberation of Bangladesh / One major and declartion of Bangladesh freedom.......
« on: December 15, 2011, 09:32:18 AM »Bangladesh was born 40 years ago, but there's a lingering debate that continues to this day with no convincing answer. Who was it exactly that declared the country free? Sheikh Mujibur Rahman or Ziaur Rahman?
The answer still divides Bangladeshis, largely on political lines. The Awami League, and also the official line, holds that Sekh Mujibur Rahman declared independence first before he was arrested on March 26, 1971. This day is celebrated as Bangladesh's Independence Day. The Opposition, Bangladesh Nationalist Party (BNP), insists it was Ziaur Rahman, former president and BNP founder, who proclaimed independence first on March 27.
On the night of March 25, the Pakistan army launched an offensive in Dhaka and arrested Sekh Mujibur Rahman in the wee hours of the next day, but not before he had reportedly signed on an "official freedom declaration" on March 26.
On March 27 and 28, it was Major Zia's voice that people heard on the radio, announcing: "This is Swadhin Bangla Betar Kendro. I, Major Ziaur Rahman, at the direction of Bangobondhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman, hereby declare that the independent People's Republic of Bangladesh has been established. At his direction, I have taken command as the temporary head of the republic. In the name of Sheikh Mujibur Rahman, I call upon all Bengalis to rise against the attack by the West Pakistani army. We shall fight to the last to free our motherland."
What is undeniable, though, is that the radio announcement was a clarion call to the shell-shocked nation to stand up against West Pakistan's might, their resistance culminating in the birth of Bangladesh on December 16, 1971.
