You frquently hear about the Statute of Limitations but what exactly is it and how does it apply to you? In short, the Statute of Limitations (as far as debt is concerned) is the amount of time a creditor has to sue you to receive what you owe them. Each state has its own time frame for a Statute of Limitation. A definition from Law.com extensively defines the Statute of Limitations (SOL) as: “a law which sets the maximum period which one can wait before filing a lawsuit, depending on the type of case or claim. The periods vary by state. Federal statutes set the limitations for suits filed in federal courts. If the lawsuit or claim is not filed before the statutory deadline, the right to sue or make a claim is forever dead (barred). “The types of cases and statute of limitations periods are broken down among: personal injury from negligence or intentional wrongdoing, property damage from negligence or intentional wrongdoing, breach of an oral contract, breach of a written contract, professional malpractice, libel, slander, fraud, trespass, a claim against a governmental entity (usually a short time), and some other variations…. “The limitations (depending on the state) generally range from 1 to 6 years except for in Rhode Island, which uses 10 years for several causes of action. Louisiana has the strictest limitations, cutting off lawsuit rights at one year for almost all types of cases except contracts. California also has short periods, usually one year, with two years for most property damage and oral contracts and four years for written contracts. “There are also statutes of limitations to enforce a judgment, ranging from five to 25 years, depending on the state. Some states have special requirements before a lawsuit can be filed, such as a written warning to a physician in a claim of malpractice, making a demand upon a state agency and then waiting for the claim to be denied or ignored for a particular period, first demanding a retraction before filing a libel suit, and other variations. Vermont protects its ski resorts by allowing only one year for filing a lawsuit for injuries suffered in a skiing accident as an exception to that state’s three-year statute of limitations for other personal injuries.” To determine the debt Statute of Limitation (SOL) for your particular state, I recommend visiting one of several sites. 1. Carreon and Associates 2. Fair Debt Collection.com 3. Nolo Press According to Nolo Press: “In most situations the time starts to run on the ‘date of harm.’ However, a huge exception to this general rule exists. The exception protects plaintiffs in situations where they may not be aware for months or even years that they have been harmed. In such situations, statutes of limitations may begin the clock ticking either on the ‘date of discovery’ of the harm, or on the date on which the plaintiff ’should have discovered’ the harm….” With reference to Statute of Limitations in general with regards to military personnel, Military.com states: “A member’s time in service cannot be used to compute the time limits for bringing any action or proceeding by or against a member, whether in court or elsewhere.” Fair Debt Collection provides this extremely important warning: “While the statute of limitations is running or even after it’s expired, making ANY payment or signing a promissory note can reset or restart (depends on your state law) the statute of limitations. Always check if the SOL has expired BEFORE making a payment, signing an agreement to make payments or even acknowledging the debt is valid!” Roger Sorensen America’s Financial Guide can be found at ==>http://www.Slave2Work.com Subscribe to Money Basics via http://www.slave2work.com/ezine.html Slave2Work.com - Are you ready for financial freedom?

| March 31st, 2008 | Blast Your Copywriting & Marketing Profits Into Outer Space…By Answering These Three Questions | ||
If you are interested in exploding the profits of all your marketing promotions…and dramatically driving up the response of your copy…then you need only ask yourself the following three questions:
1.) How can I be more outrageous in my copy and marketing promotions? Does this sound almost too simple a solution to sagging profits and unmet profit goals? This may sound almost too easy, but if you answer these questions…and apply the answers to your business…a whole new world opens up for you. Here’s why: When you make your ads outrageous — people will not be able to ignore you. It was P.T. Barnum’s secret over a hundred years ago…and it still works just as well today (if not better, especiallyl amongst all the lifeless “corporate” ads running today). When you create a unique personality in your ads — a personality people will remember and associate with whatever you’re selling — people start to identify with you. In fact, they will sometimes even wrap their buying decisions about your industry around you and what you’re doing. And you’ll be the very first person who comes to mind. Even if you’re not the “best” choice out there. And finally, when you structure your ads and marketing campaigns so they are actually fun to read…then you’ll have people actually looking forward to hearing from you. When they get your direct mail, email, post cards or read your websites…it’s not a “chore.” It’s fun. It’s something they do for a good time, and they are more inclined to hear you out and buy what you’re selling. Anyway, as simplistic as it sounds, sitting down and devoting some serious time to answering the three questions above can make a long and lasting impact on your bottom line, your business and your lifestyle for years to come. ![]() Ben Settle is an expert copywriter and direct marketer.

| March 30th, 2008 | Rack Mount Servers | ||
Before throwing light on the topic of rack mount servers, one should have a clear idea what it is–a device on a computer, or on a particular network, that is used to manage network resources. Rack mount servers are systems in a modern server used for mounting various kinds and sizes of electronic modules. If someone needs to set or pack a number of personal computers into a much smaller space, rack mount servers are ideal. Rack mount servers are commonly used across different parts of the world for a number of purposes. These can be found wherever there is an application of computers used for a broader application, starting from the world of video editing suites, computer animations and other three-dimensional works. These rack mounts are also used through the installations of ISPs, in the fields of telecom and other types of communication, and various database houses. These rack mount servers are designed to fit into an open PC or in a closed cabinet. The advantage of using and implementing such a rack mount server is that these things are really useful if someone wants to save space. A rack mount server’s space-saving design enables a user to maximize the space available. The role of a rock mount server is quite vital, as the setting of the hardware equipment into a designed cabinet paves the way to protect them from the external factors. Using the rack mount server makes it easier to protect equipment from climate and also to attain the best cable management. These rack mount servers are available in various sizes depending on their height and configurations. The usual sizes are 1U, 2U, 3U, 4U, 5U, 6U, and 7U, as per the definition of the Electronic Industries Association (EIA).

| March 27th, 2008 | Forex Trading And The Obsession To Win | ||
Forex trading is one of the great money making opportunities available these days. People from many walks of life, men and women, decide to join the forex trading world everyday looking for the great style of life a profitable forex trader can achieve. But Forex trading is also a war where you can lose your money and confidence if you are not wise enough in your battles against the market, a wise, often formidable and even brutal enemy. There is an old saying by the Chinese military genius, Sun Tzu that says, “the obsession for victory is a state of mind that benefits the enemy”. And these wise words apply without any doubt to the world of forex trading. In the war with the markets nothing is more damaging to a trader than “the obsession with victory”. There are many new traders that think they must never close a trade until it will turn into a profitable one; or think their predictions based on a particular indicator and technical analysis will always be right and the forex market will start behaving in the way they had predicted in any moment, no matter if the charts clearly indicate that it’s not doing it and the margin of the account is getting depleted. This is, in no way, a wise forex trading strategy; it is not a wise war strategy. With that behavior you will only be giving free money to the markets, i.e., you will be defeated by your own obsession with being profitable even if everything is going against you indicating you must close the trade or tighten your stops. So, never fall for obsession when trading the forex markets; nothing good can result from this behavior. You must always place your stops according to your tolerance level and be wise with your indicators. Remember they can fail you. They mostly tell probabilities and when dealing with probabilities there is always room for strange behaviors that won’t agree with what you were expecting. My recommendation; be wise, use your criteria and never ever obsess with a trade. Adrian Pablo; Forex trader and freelance writer.
