History File
When your History File gets too large, it can slow down your
browser, and you should clear it out periodically.
To clear out the history in Internet Explorer, click on the Tools
menu and select Internet Options. On the General tab, you'll see
“History”. Click the "Clear History" button and they are removed.
For Netscape, click on the Edit menu, Preferences. Under the
Navigator section, you'll see a History section. Click on the
"Clear History" button.
From either Explorer or Netscape you can adjust how long your
History files last. So, if you want them cleared out once a week,
just set it to seven days.

                         Today in History
On this date in 1863, during the Civil War, the U.S. Congress
passed a conscription act that produced the first wartime draft
of U.S. citizens in American history. The act called for
registration of all males between the ages of 20 and 45,
including aliens with the intention of becoming citizens, by
April 1.
Exemptions from the draft could be bought for $300 or by finding
a substitute draftee. This clause led to bloody draft riots in
New York City, where protesters were outraged that exemptions
were effectively granted only to the wealthiest U.S. citizens.
Although the Civil War saw the first compulsory conscription of
U.S. citizens for wartime service, a 1792 act by Congress
required that all able-bodied male citizens purchase a gun and
join their local state militia. There was no penalty for
noncompliance with this act. Congress also passed a conscription
act during the War of 1812, but the war ended before it was
enacted.
During the Civil War, the government of the Confederate States of
America also enacted a compulsory military draft.

The pichiciego is a little-known burrowing South American animal
that is related to the armadillo, but is smaller in size. The
ending of the animal’s name is derived from the Spanish ciego,
meaning “blind.”

Norwegian Teen Faces Second Copyright Trial
Jon Johansen of Norway was acquitted last month on charges of
writing a computer program that allowed copying of DVDs. The
court ruled that Johansen violated no laws because he used the
program to make copies of movies that were legally purchased.
An appeals court has decided to grant a new trial on behalf of
the Motion Picture Association of America, which had filed the
original complaint against Johansen. Johansen's attorney, Halvor
Manshaus, said the appeal was not unexpected and that he and his
client are "confident with regard to the final outcome," given
that they won the case the first time it went to trial. Rune
Floisbonn, acting chief of the Economic Crime Unit's data
department, said, "This case is about important principles, and
we are very pleased that it will be tried again."
The Motion Picture Association of America estimates that the film
industry loses $3 billion each year to piracy.

               10 Tips For Online Business Success
                           by Jean Lam
As unbelievable as it may seem for some, money can really be made
online. But to succeed in the online world, a substantial effort,
dedication, patience and perseverance are required in order to
reap the rewards in the long run.
Below are ten important points to consider if you are serious
about making your online business success a reality.
1) Own a domain name
No one without a domain can profit online. A domain is a real
estate. You must own one. You must be prepared to develop one.
It's very important.
2) Have a professional website design
Amateur design is embarrassing and won't help you make money. If
you want people to treat you seriously and regard you as a
professional, get professional design assistance.
3) Be hungry
One reason people fail online is because they believe in the
"post it and they will buy" myth. The Internet doesn't work for
people who aren't DETERMINED to understand it and make it work.
You cannot lay back and profit online.
4) Sell value
Some people online sell crap. Crap will never make you
successful online, or off. What people want, particularly in
uncertain economic times, is VALUE. Value always sells.
5) Target Your Market
A common mistake among some web marketers is not generating
"targeted" traffic. Targeting your market can be the sole
component to increasing your sales dramatically. It makes a huge
difference in the response or conversion rates.
6) Build your database
Building your database and starting an opt-in e-mail list (also
referred to as an e-zine or online newsletter) ensures you'll
always have a ready supply of prospects to solicit, and allows
you to create a continuous revenue stream that pays off every
month with little or no cost.
The fact is, the easiest and cheapest way to get targeted
traffic to your site for free is to send an e-mailing to past
prospects and clients asking them to check out your latest
offer.
7) Get the right tools
These tools consist of an email software capable of sending
mass personalized mailing to your subscribers so you can send
unlimited non-spam emails.
8) Test different key elements of your marketing
Headlines, appeals, calls to action, guarantees, prices,
advertising vehicles, etc. Most marketers either don't test at
all, don't test enough, or don't test properly, and as a result
get the same mediocre response.
But many successful marketers test almost religiously, which is a
crucial secret to their success.
This is the only secret to Internet marketing. The more you test,
the more money you will make, period. Test ads of all sorts,
sales letters, ordering systems, angles and everything else that
has to do with increasing orders. Set up your website to test
constantly right from the start!
9) Promotion
A well devised advertising strategy is the key to snowballing
your profits each month. Setup a daily promotion schedule and
stick to it. No business can survive without promoting. The
secret is consistency. Promote at least once per day, every
day to grow your business to mammoth sized proportions!
10) Time, Focus, Automate & Delegate
Manage your business time well, and focus on the most productive
activities. Automate and delegate where possible.

Chicken
-=-=-=-=
A guy was at a restaurant and couldn't figure out what to get,
so he asked the waiter whom he knew,
"What do you recommend, Henri?"
"Well, today our special is chicken on a bed of wild rice with
green beans almandine and a nice side salad, with a succulent
shrimp cocktail and your choice of beverage and dessert."
"That sounds great. How is your chicken prepared?"
"We break it to him very gently, and tell him it's nothing
personal!"

A lawyer's wife dies. At the cemetery, people are appalled to
see that the tombstone reads, "Here lies Phyllis, wife of
Murray, L. L. D., Wills, Divorce, Malpractice, and Legal Help"
Suddenly, Murray bursts into tears. His brother says, "You
should cry, pulling a stunt like this!"
Through his tears, Murray croaks, "You don't understand! They
left out the phone number!"

A teacher was taking her first golf lesson. "Is the word spelled
'p-u-t' or 'p-u-t-t'?" she asked the instructor.
"'P-u-t-t' is correct," he replied. "'P-u-t' means to place a
thing where you want it. 'P-u-t-t' means a vain attempt to do the
same thing."
