1. Do the Math. Plan your mail marketing campaign as an accountant would. Start by figuring out how much income and unit sales the project must generate to break even. Remember, its money that matters first; percentage response rate comes second. In other words, your campaign might actually be a big money maker, even if it has a low percentage response rate. 2. Always Key Code, Record and Analyze Results. Assign a key code to each list, record and analyze the responses for each code. You'll see which files are working better than others. Do this on every mailing. When email marketing, use coded links to a special order page in your web site. Many mailers do the key coding but neglect[..]

Anyone who has boarded a plane post 9/11 has experienced first hand the frustration of enhanced airport security measures. And the restrictions keep on coming with bans and limits on liquids being one of the latest aviation headaches to hit travelers. Is there any way to bring back the fun and enjoyment of flying? Manufacturers of heat shrink PVC, shrink bands, tamper-evident bags and shrink labels for tamper-evident seals think so, and they are setting out to return air travel to some of its pre-2001 heyday glory. Last month, CheapFlights.com, a price comparison site for domestic travel deals released a news blurb titled "Duty-free easier with tamper-evident bags." Therein, it was[..]

Did you vote in the 2008 election? If so, how safe do you think your vote was? That was the question posed of a recent ABC news segment titled "How Safe Is Your Vote?" While Barack Obama beat out John McCain in the presidential race by a pretty resounding margin, other contests across the nation proved a lot closer, where every vote counted. As a result, voter fraud was on the minds of many as they entered and exited the polling booths. A team of Princeton computer scientists recently examined voting procedures in New Jersey and came to the conclusion that in this day and age of electronic voting machines, votes are "not that safe" and are far too susceptible to fraud. "All you need is[..]

Two days after Christmas, "The Patriot-News" ran an article titled "Shopper return marred, scarred and unwanted gifts." The day after Christmas is traditionally the biggest day for gift returns, but it's also one of the biggest bargain hunting days of the year. Savvy shoppers, however, my have unwittingly gotten less than they bargained for this year with picked-over merchandise that not only was unwanted but also had already been used and abused by a previous owner. It's cases like this one where shrink labels, shrink sleeves and shrink wrap become shoppers' best friends. As long as a product's shrink sleeves are intact, the consumer can rest assured it's not been tampered with - be[..]

Many home chefs have not embraced this newest line of bakeware products, some of us have been slightly cautious to let go of our traditional metal and glass baking pans that have stood the test of time, long enough to even test out a silicone pan. The bright colors attract our attention, their general construction that raises a few skeptic bakers' eyebrows. However, manufacturers have been vary quick to open our eyes of folding pans and overflowing batter, by designing optional or campanion racks or 'sleds' that provide the much-needed stability especially for the larger pans. If you haven't yet tried one of these, you may be pleasantly surprised, I was. I started out slowly at first[..]

This has the potential to lead to instances of insomnia and a need to consider taking sleep melatonin supplements. Although not approved by the Food and Drug Administration or prescribed by doctors, the good news is that sleep melatonin supplements are sold over the counter in many drug and retail stores. It is recommended[..]

It is a genuine wonderment about windshield wiper liquid having to be a bright blue color. Whether it is to represent the "freeze" part of the anti-freeze, or to somehow represent an unnatural juice color to deter others from drinking it, it is not always fool-proof. This color is just too similar to the color of blue Kool-Aid, which is an artificially flavored juice powder mix. It is unfortunate in some cases. It was written all over the internet last year that a day care staff member had mistakenly poured cups of the anti-freeze combo for less than a dozen of the day care children to drink. What was completely a mistake on behalf of the day care owner could have had near fatal[..]

As hi-tech electronic industries grow, new and old manufacturers are subject to the risk of receiving counterfeit board level components more often if their suppliers lack proper inspection and testing measures.

When one goes shopping, so to speak, for pavement marking tape, one usually looks for material that is strong enough to remain on the road indefinitely, or at least for a projected period of useful life without wearing away, shrinking or otherwise deteriorating. This is understandable for conventional road marking, but there are circumstances where this level of permanence may not be the best solution. For instance, some paths on a highway may be redirected while a section of the concrete is repaired or replaced. This situation necessitates that one use a material that will perform adequately for the duration of the temporary event, and then be removed with relative ease afterwards.[..]
