The diagonal of the box is the hypotenuse of a triangle that has one side as the height of the box, and the other side is the diagonal of the base. So, the diagonal of the base by using the Pythagorean Theorem is sqrt(l^2+w^2). So, the diagonal of the box is sqrt(l^2+w^2+h^2)

In this case, this means that the diagonal of the box is sqrt(49+25+1)=sqrt(75)=5sqrt(3)

Now, a cube has the same length all around, so by using the above formula, a cube's diagonal should be sqrt(s^2+s^2+s^2)=sqrt(3s^2)=s*sqrt(3)

So, since the diagonal of the first box is 5sqrt(3), the cube with the same sized diagonal would have a side length of 5, and the volume would be 5^3 or 125

The last time I've checked, just upgrading Microsoft Office Suite cost $329. If you want to buy a brand new copy of MS Office, then you'll have to part with something like $533.

What if I told you that you can keep your precious money in your wallet and still do (almost) everything that you can do with MS Office for FREE -- as in zilch, nada and nothing?

Welcome to OpenOffice, an office suite downloaded by over ten million grateful users around the world.

You can download it too for FREE from http://www.openoffice.org

In case you are wondering what to do with all your MS Word documents, let me tell you right away: OpenOffice opens all versions of Word documents and then allows you to save them again in any Word version you like. It works like a charm because that's what I've been doing for the last year.

OpenOffice (OO) works on all platforms, Windows, Mac, or Linux. It's an open-source application available in over 30 languages and continuously developed by hundreds of volunteer programmers all over the world.

This is what you get for paying nothing:

1) WRITER -- A fantastic word processor with probably more features than MS Word, including built-in images for your HTML pages. Styles, exporting as PDF (without Acrobat!), text frames and linking, autocorrect dictionary, document wizards, are just some of the features of this amazing word program. Click http://www.openoffice.org/product/writer.html for more info.

2) IMPRESS - is the equivalent of MS Power Point. A splendid multimedia presentation tool with Master Pages, different viewing options, slide show animation and effects. You can use your old MS Power Point presentations or even create your own Flash (.swf) files. Click http://www.openoffice.org/product/impress.html for more info.

3) CALC - the all purpose SPREADSHEET program, like MS Excel. Pull in your data from corporate databases with DataPilot technology, use natural language formulas, insert sums with the click of a button, plenty of styles and formatting to satisfy even a graphic designer, plus Design Themes, etc. You can of course import all your MS Excel sheets and work them in CALC. Microsoft compatibility is a feature shared by all OO tools. Click http://www.openoffice.org/product/calc.html for more info.

4) DRAW - An excellent drawing program that combines the best features of MS Visio and Acrobat Illustrator. Perfect for all kinds of organizational diagrams and charts with a Gallery of clipart and styles galore. Import graphics in many formats (including BMP, GIF, JPEG, PNG, TIFF, and WMF) and export even as a Flash (.swf) document. Arrange and align objects any way you like. Use Smart Connectors to connect your objects in a dozen different ways. Create 3D rings, cubes, spheres. And more... Click http://www.openoffice.org/product/draw.html for more info.

5) MATH - Create complex scientific and mathematical equations for your scientific papers and books. Smoothly integrated with WRITER, CALC and IMPRESS. Click http://www.openoffice.org/product/math.html for more info.

6) BASE - A great relational database, just like MS Access, with everything you need to create tables, records, queries, print reports, and manipulate your data in any way you want. Perform simple (single column) or complex (multi-column) sorts. Create filters to see only subset of your data. Use the Form Wizard and Report Wizard to guide you through the necessary steps. Based on a full version of the HSQL database engine, storing data in XML files. Click http://www.openoffice.org/product/base.html for more info.

So the choice is yours. But you owe it to yourself to download it today and check it out for yourself.

After all it's FREE. What have you got to lose?

If you don't like it, you can always go back and give that $500 to Uncle Bill, as most of us did for decades.

And if, on the other hand, you like your OO, then perhaps you can donate a small chuck of your MS-money to the angelic folks who have brought us this amazing free gift (http://contributing.openoffice.org/donate.html).

Tonight Dr. John's accounts receivable report looked as if Pat, his billing assistant, did not show to work at all for at least three months. He remembered her mentioning NPI trouble...Few months ago he attended a presentation at the local Chapter of Chiropractic Association about Medicare changing some CPT codes...Has Pat been on top of all these changes? Last week, Peter, whom Dr. John has been treating since he opened his practice three years ago, told him he was canceling his care plan because United Health changed the rules of his insurance coverage. Considering the bleak news, Dr. John wondered how many other patients has he been treating without adequate coverage?

Perhaps Dr. John should have hired that practice management consultant who called him a couple of weeks ago? Or maybe he should have taken a loan and invested it in a computer system that could increase the efficiency of the practice? But who has the time to talk to the consultant and the patience to read all those manuals?

Dr. John is not the only doctor who spends his nights awake and worried about the state of his practice. The few insurance companies that control the healthcare market rarely pay the providers in full and on time. In a typical market oligopsony, UnitedHealth Group averages 38.3 days in accounts receivable, which is 37.3 days more than the one-day settlement standard on Wall Street. The lack of modern practice management process exacerbates such an already difficult position of the chiropractic office and guarantees anemic growth, low profitability, and heightened audit risk. Yet many chiropractors are reluctant to modernize their practice management processes because they fear billing complexity, lack access to solid technology, and recoil at unfamiliar terminology.

But Dr. John knows that he has an excellent background to devise his own solution. It stems from the striking similarities of the information processing mechanisms between the chiropractic office and the human organism. Both the human body and the chiropractic office are complex information systems, where the flow of information must be uninhibited in order to have them growing at a healthy pace. The office, just like the human body, must perform its vital functions optimally to grow and to avoid risks. The basic chiropractic concepts like "behavior," "CNS," "subluxation," and "adjustment" apply directly to the chiropractic office; an experienced chiropractor can leverage years of chiropractic training and experience productively to improve practice performance.

A growing number of patient visits and increased profitability is a sign of a successful practice and productive "office behavior" both for novel and established chiropractic office owners. Behavior refers to the actions or reactions of an object, usually in relation to the environment. Office behavior determines the number of patients treated by the office, the experiences patients receive during their office visits and treatments, and the financial performance of the office. Office behavior is controlled according to written procedures about patient scheduling, registration, visit documentation, patient education, and billing.

The central nervous system (CNS) has a fundamental role in the control of behavior. Extending the "human body-chiropractic office" analogy, the CNS is not just the software that facilitates such functions or the office staff that performs these functions using the software, nor is it just the procedures that the office staff follows when performing these functions using the software. The CNS concept unites all three components of information flow management, including procedures, technology, and staff who follow the procedures and use the technology that results in the desired behavior.

Systemic subluxation is a systems term to describe low collections or increased audit risk along with a myriad of other symptoms to occur as a result of a misaligned or dysfunctional office CNS. A systemic "subluxation" may not be immediately observable to a naked and untrained eye, yet it may cause major setbacks for the practice owner. Just like patients who lack education about their own body and their nervous system, practice owners are often ignorant about the reasons for their underpayment or for the lack of practice growth.

Management treatment of systemic subluxation focuses on delivering a systemic adjustment to the affected component of the CNS in an effort to reduce the subluxation. The introduction of scalable office management procedures, modern Internet technology, and adequate personnel training are the primary techniques in the office CNS adjustment. They have been shown to help multiple symptoms of systemic subluxations, and especially low collections and increased audit risk.

Help them learn winning Internet strategies for the modern payer-provider conflict by steering them to www.BillingPrecision.com - The CNS for the Chiropractic Office, home of "Practicing Profitability - Billing Network Effect for Revenue Cycle Control in Healthcare Clinics and Chiropractic Offices: Collections, Audit Risk, SOAP Notes, Scheduling, Care Plans, and Coding" book by Yuval Lirov, PhD and inventor of patents in artificial intelligence and computer security.

The truth of the matter is that most working people would give anything to have more flexible hours and the ability to have more time spent with their families or at least more time spent on things other than working. Recently I heard in social conversation a physician say that the average working American no longer even knows how to relax and enjoy their off time when they have it because they have spent most of their adult life working and worrying about money. They are so conditioned to this mindset that it is difficult to leave it behind on their off days. So instead of enjoying time off they spend it fretting about finances.

I find this fact extremely sad that we as a whole no longer have the ability within us to enjoy the down time. I remember when I was in the first ten years of selling real estate I had to learn to appreciate the slow markets and recognize the time off as a break from the really busy times. There were weeks at a time in a good market that I would work straight thru with no time off, because I had to take advantage of the booming market, in order to make enough to put aside for the slower market times. At first when these lulls would come I would work myself into a frenzy trying to create business that wasn't there. After awhile I realized that I needed to just relax during those times and take advantage of the down time by spending it with my family and having some fun. All I had to do was budget my money correctly in order to do this. Once I was able to create this mindset my stress level plummeted in a downward spiral.

After almost thirty years of being in real estate sales I have finally created a way of life that is completely balanced between enjoying my life and making the money I need to reach financial security. I have also added another business asset to my life that I could have done years ago if only I had been more creative. When I started in the real estate business though online businesses of course did not even exist but today they are the answer to many people's down time in sales if they want more income. I see online business as just another benefit to the flexible hours of being in a sales job because we are the perfect candidates for also making money online.

In conclusion I am suggesting to you if you are in sales to strongly consider an online business to strengthen your financial security. You can involve yourself with the type of business that you build slowly investing only an hour a day to start building it and as time goes by you will have an asset not unlike owning a rental property where the monthly income grows and just keeps coming in on a steady basis. It is an easy way to create another income stream that could potentially make your mortgage payment every month, pay for your family to take a vacation or just give you the financial relief that everyone could use occasionally. As in sales the sky is the limit you just have to make a leap of faith to try and speaking from experience I can tell you, without doubt you will be so glad that you did.

What are the best direct sales companies to work for without having parties?

I want to sell from a catalog to friends and family.. I am selling Avon, but not doing so well. I am only making about $20 every two weeks and I want to start working for another direct sales company that uses catalogs and with a cheap or no start up fee
I am unemployed, so I can not pay any kind of start up fee.
I also DO NOT want to host any parties.

Have you looked into Scentsy? I'm having a lot of fun with it and building up my income every month.

Maybe evaluate to see why Avon isn't work well for you. Is it that your friends and family aren't interested in Avon or is there something else you can do to build your sales?

I hope you find something that works well for you. Good luck!

"Buyer's Market, Seller's Market - It's always a Realtor's Market"

These are the words my trainer said to me when I was studying for the Utah Real Estate Licensing Exam over 10 years ago. The same holds true in any niche where you're offering services, and that's one of the reasons I strongly encourage you to take a closer look at your Direct Sales business right now.

In this slowing economy, lots of folks are looking for a little extra income. Just keeping the bills paid can be a challenge - but when you throw in layoffs, rising mortgage rates, and let's not forget the ridiculous gas prices these days, it's not just about extra income - sometimes it's a complete income replacement!

Now it is the perfect time to share your business opportunity. You've heard the adage, 'buy low, sell high'? The same holds true in Network Marketing. Many companies are offering some tremendous savings and incentives for recruiting this summer. You owe it to everyone to share the benefits of your career. Now, I still maintain that Network Marketing isn't for everyone, but you'd be foolish not to share your opportunity at a time when many people are literally STARVING for an income.

Here are some great tips and facts to share with your customers to let them know what a difference a network marketing career could make in their lives:

• 96% of adults ages 25 to 44 are very interested in owning their own business.
• 21% of baby boomers need to save at least $2 million for retirement and many have not saved enough.
• 90% of women will assume total financial responsibility for herself at some time or another. Every woman owes it to herself to be prepared!
• 85% of bankruptcies could be avoided with only $300 in additional monthly income.
• More than 50% of adults in the US have purchased goods or services from a direct sales representative.
• BusinessWeek Magazine says direct selling is a growing $30-billion-a-year business.
• According to a poll conducted by the Direct Selling Association, additional income was the #1 reason people gave for becoming a direct selling representative.

When you have a passion for your work and love what you do, you will naturally be more successful. This holds true in every industry, not just Direct Sales/Network Marketing. There is a growing disillusionment with corporate America as downsizing continues, ethics scandals abound, and they are perceived as being too focused on the bottom line. Those that aren't turning to private small business (solopreneurs, etc.) are still looking for help.

You have the perfect business opportunity that will allow your customers to improve their quality of life, while having a support system (fellow consultants) around them to motivate, inspire and applaud them for their hard work. When you share that opportunity with others, you are opening the door to a world of possibilities they might not even know about!

YOU are your company's best product. You are that thing that distinguishes your products and services from every other company in the world. In this "crunch time" it is even MORE imperative that you focus on how you can 'deliver the goods' in a distinctive way that encourages repeat business, raving clients, and strong positive impact on your bottom line.

Are you sharing about your business? What are you sharing and how are you sharing it? What makes you remarkable?

Get out there and tell the world!

Network Marketing Or Internet Marketing--What do you feel is the best way to build a Direct Sales business?

I have been in the Direct Selling Industry for over 14 years. With the rise of the social web, I have noticed a change in the way people do business. I am looking at launching a new business in my area and wondering if women are still into home parties? Do you like to shop on-line or at a friend's house? If you are a direct selling rep feel free to give your opinion. Thanks so much for your help!

Hi there I have been in network marketing for 6 years with little to no success, I didn't relies until last Year that the industry has changed today people dont wanna get into MLM because they dont want to do cold calling or selling ...but this is not the end

last year in Nov 2007 i discover that to be successful in MLM you need to learn how to use web2.0 to market yourself and get targeted leads into your business I was bumped into mlmgoldmine its not a network marketing its a online school that teach mlms how to use web2.0 to get targeted leads into your mlm

for me I decided to quit my MLM and iam using web2.0 to market as an affiliate, by the way mlmgoldmine colse to public in march 2008 but last month they re-open the door and they only accept people to join after they pass the online interview survey , if you are keen I highly recommended you to go to their website and watch one of their training video , I left a link below for your references

It's a felony called, "Burglary of an occupied dwelling" or simply, "Burglary".

It's not "Home invasion", which is a type of "robbery" where the resident puts up resistance to an unlawful entry that may initially appear to be an innocent contact with the homeowner. An example of a home invasion is a knock at the door by someone who says he's a vacuum cleaner salesman (or something else, just to get you to open the door) and then forces his way into your house.

No this is not the Star Trek actor, that is Jeffrey Alan Combs. If you are looking for that guy, you better go and do another search on Google.

Jeffery specializes in the art of prospecting, asking, prosperity consciousness, leadership and personal breakthroughs. Jeffery is a well known and highly recognized across the globe and has provided his services to network marketers, sales professionals and home business owners. Jeffery has been speaking for over 20 years. Some of Jeffery Combs' most notable products include 'The Psychology Of Asking' and 'More Heart Than Talent.'

A Worthwhile Fact About Jeffery's Past

Mr. Jeffery Combs was not always a highly paid and respected speaker in the industry. To be honest, as Jeffery would even say himself, he had went through a phase in his life dealing with the addiction of alcohol. Jeffery understands what is was once like to be at a very low point in his life and attributes many of his own breakthroughs to being able to see what life looks like from the very bottom. He accredits this "low point" in his life to helping him experience the ultra success he now enjoys today.

How Can Jeffery Combs Help You?

If you are struggling with motivation, procrastination or a personal breakthrough Jeffery can help you. If you are a network marketer or sales representative and need to fine tune your prospecting skills, Jeffery can definitely help you. How do I know all of this? Because Mr. Combs, whether he knows this or not, has been instrumental in my own success within my home business. His two courses that I listed above really helped when it came time to close a sale and get a decision from prospects. Jeffery's services can really impact your busines and assist you with that necessary transformation you have been looking for.

Are Jeffery's Products Worth Their Price?

Yes. Or as Jeffery would "unequivocally yes!" I believe that is his favorite word. I have bought many tapes, courses, books and seminar tickets and Jeffery Combs has never let me down. He seems to always over deliver and do a fantastic job. If you are looking for that personal breakthrough or find yourself having a difficult time attaining what you truly desire, Jeffery Combs is a logical answer to assist you with your problems. I have not yet tried his personal coaching program, but I hear that the majority of his students do a complete 180 and reach new heights they previously didn't think were possible.

What If You're Not In Any Of These Industries?

It really doesn't matter. The majority of his courses also focus on how you can become a result producer and discover the potential inside of you. This is a person I support and endorse 100% because he has made a great impact in my own life. The teachings of Mr. Combs flat out work and are not simply based on theory or hypothesis. After all, he would not still be in business or flying all around the globe delivering speeches if people didn't want to hear what he had to say.
