A Fathers Day gift of adventure will do just that. It will also show dad how much you care. And isnâ??t that what Fathers Day gifts are all about?

What Dad wouldnâ??t want to spend a day behind the wheel of a real life rally car or burning rubber at the helm of a V8 Supercar? Perhaps your dad would prefer something a little bit wet. If thatâ??s the case, just go for the ride in the jet boat or a whitewater rafting trip. If thatâ??s not enough, well how about some high flying adventure with a parachute jump. The point is, you donâ??t have to stick with the same old Fathers Day gift ideas. You have dozens of options to choose from once you have decided to give the Fathers Day gift of adventure.

Finger Licking Food Processing Equipment

3:17 am by admin. Filed under: extreme food

When it comes to food processing equipment, there are many health and safety regulations. There are also many health and safety regulations that are ignored, resulting in accidents and injuries of the digit variety among others.
People do some stupid things when it comes to the safety of their fingers and thumbs. I’ve seen that first hand – excuse the pun! My brother in law decided to adjust the chain of his ride-on lawn mower while it was running bringing about the loss of one finger and lo and behold, the following year saw him stick his hand in the engine of a Land Rover losing another finger.
Ok, so we may have multiple fingers where other body parts are usually limited to one or two but they are all there for a reason and we find it very difficult to manage without. My brother in law couldn’t play the piano after losing the first digit and gave up the guitar entirely once the second one was a gonna too.
Of course, our hands are exposed all the time and this makes them more susceptible to damage. That is precisely why health and safety regulations are implemented and the thought of lost body parts in food processing equipment is a stomach churning thought.
A plant in the UK that uses food processing equipment has seen two workers lose digits recently. They claim that the machinery had been reported as faulty recently but management had neglected to implement repairs. This food processing equipment plant supplies food to major supermarkets and in this age of compensation claims, they surely cannot afford to misplace digits.
Workers who use vibrating machinery in cold temperatures, as food processing equipment often is, are also liable to the ravages of Vibration White finger. The results are pins and needles, tingling, whiteness of the fingers and numbness. In extreme cases, fingers can be lost and compensation claims for this have seen five figure sums being bandied about.
A woman in the US has made a pretty good income of fake compensation claims. Her career has been brought to an abrupt end recently with the discovery of her antics. She claims to have bitten into a workers amputated finger in her burger in a fast food outlet in California. The bad publicity led to the loss of $2.5 million.
The woman responsible, it was discovered, had done this before. Other establishments had paid her an out of court settlement to avoid bad press even though no workers had reported losing any fingers in food processing equipment. You’d think they would notice!
The woman was actually able to produce a real finger that she had purchased for $100 from a construction worker who had it amputated in an earlier accident. How she managed this several times, I do not understand.
Does she have a disembodied finger collection? Does she advertise for amputated body parts? Maybe she buys them over the internet – god knows, some people will sell anything these days!
Of course, if extra fingers are freely available, it would give her a distinct advantage when it came to eating a bag of hula hoops. Even the extra big bags you can buy these days, or the multi packs, she could eat them in the same time it takes the average person to eat a small bag!
I’m quite sure the hula hoop manufacturers are extremely careful when it comes to fingers in their food processing equipment. After all, what’s the point of advertising food that fits like a ring on your finger if the staff are a few digits short of a full hand?

Internet Marketing – an Extreme Sport

3:17 am by admin. Filed under: extreme sport
Why i consider internet marketing to be an extreme sport ?

As it turns out, plenty! I went to a IPL T20 cricket match final in mumbai with my friends and, in between buying outrageously priced food, I thought about what cricket (or any sport) has in common with internet marketing. I know, you may think it’s a bit of a stretch, but these simple analogies will make all of us to consider internet marketing to be an extreme sport.

1.Enter the ground with determination – Let’s start with most apparent. You need to have sheer determination to rich the finish line or score the winnig run. You’ve got to have the same kind of determination to your business and your marketing efforts.

2.Take proper stance and be ready – It takes an intense focus and concentration to hit a 100 mile-per-hour fastball.You must be on you toes, ready to respond, and completely ready for anything that might be hit his way. Are you paying attention in your business? Are you nimble, prepared and ready to react?

3.Give it a real go – It’s not the half-hearted shots that wins you matches, you need to swing hard for that. In your marketing efforts and in your business in general, you’ve got to take big swings. If you want to hit winning runs, you’ve got to swing for the fences!

4.Have a game plan – Just as an australian cricketer may make it look effortless, they never take the field without a game plan. Business, like cricket, is a game of strategy. Plan ahead. Study the competition. Know your strengths and weaknesses. And most important, execute.

5.Team game - No matter how good the individuals in the team are, it’s the team that wins cricket matches. While this is painfully obvious,  you need to ask yourself how teamwork can benefit you. How can you use the combined efforts of your team to win?

6.Life lesson - The players we most admire are the guys who are as great off the field as they are on the field. You’ve got to bring your  “A”  game every day, both in business and in life!

7.Never give up - As they say in cricket “No game is over till the last ball is bowled”, to succeed as an entrepreneur, you’re going to need that same kind of dogged persistence and determination.

8.Be aggressive - Good players always plays agressively. They run hard. They stretch full. They don’t let up. How are you playing in your business? Can you put in even more effort? Can you push a little harder?

9.Use a variety of “weapons” – A champion team uses many different ways to win.They have a variety of weapons in their arsenal. Are you using an assortment of marketing weapons in your business? Look for ways to add some depth to your armoury and don’t rely on just one or two methods.

After considering these nine points, i am sure many readers will agree with me and apply things to their marketing campaign if they haven’t yet.
