How Strong Are Your Passwords?
by Mike Gonsalves,
StrategicFusion
Most
people don't realize that computer security starts with
them. An easy way to hold off trouble is to use strong
passwords that you change every so often.
What is a
strong Password? It is a password that is easily
remembered by you, contains uppercase letters, lower
case letters, a number or two, a special character and
is at least 8 characters in length.
Sounds
hard, but it's really easy when you use things you are
familiar with.
For
example, if I grew up at 245 Lucky Street, I might make
my password Lucky245& Notice I've used Uppercase and
Lowercase Letters, I have 3 numbers and a special
character.

Protecting Your Back At Work
 Back
pain is one of the most common medical problems in the United
States. The cause is often poor posture and body mechanics in the
workplace.
A supervised program of
back protection and exercise may be the key to alleviating and even
preventing such problems.
Correct posture and
body mechanics play a vital role in preventing back pain because
pressure on the discs and strain of the muscles, ligaments and back
joints is aggravated by incorrect posture and body mechanics. At the
same time, when your posture is good and you move your body
correctly, you reduce the strain on your back.

Business value of Social
Media part 1: online networking
reprinted with permission
from the HP Small Business Center
If you could
connect to the world’s business professionals, in the time
it takes to check your email, wouldn’t you? Welcome to the
world of online networking, where valuable business
connections are made every day on social and professional
networking sites like Twitter, Facebook and Linkedin.
Social and
professional networking simply refers to the interaction
between a community of people who share a common interest.
Through these personal connections you make with an
otherwise impersonal medium, you can give your business a
personality, build brand awareness, and equally importantly,
tune in to what people are saying about you.

comes in cans!

Some
said, “It can’t be done!” But “Success comes in CANS, not in
cannots!”
The first
successful cast iron plow invented in the United States in
1797 was rejected by New Jersey farmers under the theory
that cast iron poisoned the land and stimulated growth of
weeds.
