I just posted a new page on my company site describing some custom websites I have been creating for Homeowners Associations. If you live in a community association that is wrestling with an old website, please take a look.
Websites for Homeowners Associations

I love everything about being self employed except for trying to get affordable health insurance.
My teenaged son has a way with mobile phones and laptop computers. Unfortunately his way with mobile phones and laptop computers often leads to a need to replace them about every six months. I think I have found the answer. The Panasonic Toughbook appears to be more than a match for everything my son normally throws at his gear.
If the Panasonic Toughbook CF31 can stand up to the punishment shown in this video, I believe it will survive my son Sam. Now the only decision is whether to buy one new or refurbished. I found a place called ToughbookDepot.com that sells a certified reconditioned Toughbook CF31 with a warranty on line for a lot less than a new one. I just added the Toughbook CF 31 on my wishlist. I wonder if they make a mobile phone?
These classic mahogany speedboats were built beginning in the 20′s by companies such as Chris Craft, Hacker Craft, and others.
They began to fall victim to much less expensive fiberglass hull replacements in the 50s. I love this style.
I have just learned about this exciting new device called a Deep Tissue Laser. This device promises to be a non invasive treatment for my carpal tunnel syndrome. I would love to think this could be an effective alternative to the surgery that has been proposed to fix my problem.
The LCT-1000™ from LiteCure is an example of a Deep Tissue Laser device. The LCT-1000 is one of the longest-lived therapy lasers in the industry. The LCT-1000 has proven durable and easy to use. The LCT-1000

unit allows the clinician to deliver 10 Watts of therapeutic power through a variety of treatment head attachments. A built in touch screen provides ease-of use allowing quick treatment protocol programming.
The LCT-1000 comes with LiteCure Medical’s patented laser-massage ball treatment head; providing an superior level of versatility.
I have an appointment next week with Brodie Pack, owner of Pack Physical Therapy, in Orange County, to experience the LCT-1000 for myself. I am hopeful that this device will produce a positive outcome and reduce the pains that I have rightfully earned spending hundreds of hours at this very keyboard building websites and blogs over the last three years.
If you are anywhere near Dana Point, California, and would like to try the LCT-1000 on your own aches and pains, please contact Brodie Pack, and Pack Physical Therapy at (949) 443 0713

According to statistics published at ComScore.com, 20.1 million mobile phone owners in the U.S. used their device to scan a QR code in the three-month average period ending October 2011.
Wow! 20.1 million is a lot more than I expected! I have scanned a few QR codes myself and so far, I fail to see what the fuss is about.
For all the trouble of pulling my mobile device from my pocket, and conjuring up the QR reader app, I have often been rewarded with more commercial message, or a duplication of information about the product that is already printed on the page.
Maybe there are some valuable payloads lurking behind a few of the QR codes out there but I have not found many so far. I am sure the QR code works very well as a logistics tool for tracking inventory, and delivery, but as a marketing device, I give it a D-. If there are folks who stand to gain from the use of this device as a marketing tool, I would advise them to take heed.
I have an idea for a new, and improved, QR code that I would certainly welcome as a consumer. The QR code 2.0 would double as a crossword puzzle. When you scan the code you receive the clues for across, and down needed to work the puzzle. Here is an example. 
The design of the QR code certainly lends itself perfectly for this dual use. I picture myself and others grabbing up marketing material featuring this new QR code and retaining it in a safe place near my favorite chair simply for the puzzle value, as I do the LA times.
If you happen to take this idea and run with it and become a bazillionaire in the process, please consider shooting a small honorarium my way. I will be watching my junk maill for your marketing material.
