Entrepreneurs Forget the Importance of Life Insurance

Hope of every business person and entrepreneur is to achieve success and independence, to one degree or another. To this end, these individuals can become single-minded, pouring endless energy and focus into the task at hand. While this can generate a great deal of income, and build security for the future, it’s also a vulnerable time in the life of entrepreneurs – take caution

More than 6% of Americans own a business that provides their primary income. For these people and their families, their business is the lifeblood of support and success. For many of these individuals, failure in the business would ruin the family’s finances. This is the sort of vulnerability that is typically considered when talking about the early risks of a business venture. But another, and the more devastating, would be the unexpected death of the person running the business.

It’s common for young, healthy, successful people to forego life insurance. It makes sense, after all, only 192 people out of every 100,000 Americans dies between the ages of 25 to 44. And while those might seem like good odds, the outcome of the sudden death of a business owner and familial provider is scary to think about. Is saving money on life insurance by avoiding it completely worth the worry that your family won’t be provided for if you aren’t around? To answer that question, it’s important to understand what is available.

Dangerous sex Positions For Men

The most common cause of pénile injury is found among the variety of potentially dangerous positions used for séxual intercourse. The most popular is the ‘woman-on-top’. This type of position can result in an impact between the pénis against the female pelvis or perineum that can easily traumatize the pénile cylinders. A pénis becomes érect when the lining of the cylinder within it is engorged with blood.  A pénis fracture can occur when there is trauma to the eréct pénis, resulting in a rupture of the cylinder lining. This very painful injury is often accompanied by an abrupt, distressing cracking noise that is immediately followed by dark bruising of the pénis due to blood escaping the cylinder. In ten to 30% of pénis fractures, the urethra is damaged and blood may be visible at the urinary opening. Given these signs, an injury should be relatively simple to diagnose, right? You would be surprised, even with the unsettling sounds of a fracture occurring, many men...

Google Authenticator, a formidable layer of protection to your account.

​Google Authenticator is a free security app that can protect your accounts against password theft. It's easy to set up and can be used in a process called two-factor authentication (2FA) offered on popular social media services like Gmail, Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, etc.  The app ( iOS / Android ) generates a random code used to verify your identity when you're logging into various services. The code can technically be sent to your phone via text message every time— but the Google Authenticator app provides an extra level of security.  SMS-based 2FA has a  known security flaw , and any devoted hacker can attempt to  socially engineer  an attack against your phone company.

AWS Battles Rivals: Advertising Campaign

Amazon Web Services has defeated IBM in a competition for lucrative federal contracts, threatened Microsoft's core businesses, and reshaped corporate technology. In the last few months, the pioneering cloud-computing unit of the online retail giant has taken a page from the playbook of some of its more traditional competitors: It started advertising. Ads have been splashed across billboards and in airport terminals, television spots and web videos, featuring a whiteboard full of sketches of software architecture and appeals to invent something using Amazon's collection of rented computing services. The advertising campaign, which bears the "Build On" tagline, represents a milestone in AWS' march from technology upstart to one of the major players in business software, technologists and marketers say. For many years, AWS didn't advertise, partly because it didn't have to. The service held a wide lead over the competition, and word-of-mouth was enough to...
