Copyright 2005 SurefireMarketing.comEvery year I've been in business for myself online has been better than the previous one. Recently, I decided to create an "Apprentice" program (Yes, even before Trump) and I was extremely pleased that we had nearly 100% of my Apprentices get an online venture up and running.I've gone back and thought about their projects and how they developed and I came to a striking conclusion that will be worth a lot of money to you this year if you heed it.

Best and Worst Commercials of 2006
We have reached the halfway point in the 2006 season of commercials. We kicked the season off with the studs and duds of the Superbowl commercials where we all loved the FedEx cavemen and the Budweiser Streaker.

Become An Executive Chef
With the popularity of chefs such as Emeril Lagasse and Nigella Lawson, the culinary arts have taken on new prestige. In fact, a number of people are trading in their pens and calculators for spatulas and food processors, moving from the office to the kitchen.
