Increasing Activity in Automotive Recruitment

Increasing activity in automotive recruitment

We are recovering from the worst recession we have seen since the 1920s and this has had a considerable effect on the world automotive market. Some countries such as China and Brazil, and more recently India, recovered relatively quickly whereas others such as Russia have been slower to recover. The UK market was hit quite hard initially but the scrappage scheme promoted a recovery. Since the cessation of the scheme in March 2010 sales have declined in two consecutive months (July and August) but remain higher than in 2009 for the year.

The recession resulted in significantly reduced production and temporary plant stoppages by most of the Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs). The supply chain was unable to benefit from efficiencies of periodic stoppage and had to run inefficiently at levels significantly below capacity. This has been very painful for most companies leading to shop floor redundancies, although companies did try harder than in previous recessions to avoid a cull and retain as many people as possible using creative ways to reduce employment costs; such as shorter hours, sabbaticals, temporary wage/salary cuts and pension freezes. Whilst production was hit badly, R&D continued to operate with minimal reductions in staff albeit with a freeze on further recruitment.

The effect of all this was a massive reduction in the market for permanent staff. Whilst some industries such as defence and public sector were hardly affected, automotive recruitment levels dropped like a stone. The recovery was stalled by the general election and uncertainty about the policy direction of the incoming Conservative/Liberal coalition. There was also a reluctance to replace departing staff and nearly all recruitment needs were met by contractors.

This year we have seen some easing of cash availability in the market and while the need to re-stock and meet increased demand has put further pressures on cash flow, the availability of capital has improved slightly – although it’s nowhere near where it needs to be. This, coupled with increasing confidence and improved demand, has led companies to not only identify staff shortages, but begin to address them.

The need to increase product engineering activity has become a key factor in improving the automotive recruitment market’s prospects. This was driven by the increased legislative demands for cleaner vehicles and the increased need for model program change due to the demand for more and more advanced technology.

However, following recessions, companies tend to be very cautious about recruiting staff. When they identify a suitable candidate they may well expect them to come for a little less money than before or they expect better skills for the same salary. Candidates are also cautious – they may have had their salary pegged for some time and are looking for a sizeable salary increase to leave an employment and risk a new role. A worrying trend is that companies are often waiting until the offer stage before requesting clearance to recruit from Head Office. If it is not granted it can cause considerable disappointment and ill feeling, not to mention damage to the company’s employer brand.

Despite the recession, an old foe has already reared it head, the skills shortage. Only months into the recovery and we are already seeing significant shortages in several industries but in particular automotive. The main shortages are within product engineering where good project and programme management skills and technical specialists are widely sought after.

Traditional skills such as powertrain and calibration; chassis engineering; Noise, Vibration and Harshness (NVH); design analysis; and vehicle engineering are also in great demand. However, in the area of automotive product development we are seeing the biggest change we have seen for several decades, with the increasing need for low carbon technology leading to the introduction of hybrid and EV technology. There are simply not enough controls, electronics and high voltage electrical engineers for motor control and power delivery let alone the battery technologists and connector specialists needed to meet demand. A number of automotive systems suppliers are now replacing mechanical or hydraulic systems with electronic ones that require control and embedded software skills that are also in chronic supply.

With such a high demand for a relatively small group of engineers and technicians, companies are either having to train to develop these skills internally or pay premium salaries to attract them.

We are seeing an unprecedented and very welcome addition of some small specialist OEMs as well as changes to the supply chain. These include electric vehicle manufacturers, lithium-ion and other advanced battery manufacturers and specialist consultancies. They are nearly all recruiting and some of them are paying top whack to attract the right people – some with venture capitalist finance and no restrictive wage structure.

Good candidates often require considerable inducement to leave existing employers – particularly those with long service – during the recession. But with the improved market they are beginning to show interest in new roles, fueled by increasing demand and some exciting opportunities. Those considering a move are very selective and are largely holding out for significant salary increases before jumping ship. We are already seeing companies making counter offers to retain good people who tender their resignation. Meanwhile, some companies are trying to tempt their best contractors to accept permanent roles but are often unable to offer them good enough terms to succeed.

It is difficult to say how long the investment in product engineering will continue as some countries have seen a recent dip in car sales. Increased recruitment on the production side is much slower to take off, however for the time being, the automotive recruitment market is looking much healthier than it was last year.

What is Mindfulness?
The concept of mindfulness has actually been around for thousands of years. Its origins can be found in the earliest Buddhist teachings (2500 years ago). It has been used over the centuries in traditional eastern contemplative practices like Hatha Yoga and other meditation practices. Zen masters taught mindfulness to enlightened monks in the ultimate acceptance of their own existence.
However, the way we use the term here, Mindfulness should not be confused with inward focused mysticism or spirituality. Today Mindfulness not only refers to the acceptance of one’s reality but what one does with that reality. As we use it, Mindfulness is the skill of living in the moment and relating to the world in a nonjudgmental and reflexive as oppose to reactive fashion.
In recent years, science and westernization have adapted Mindfulness so that it can be cultivated daily, used without years of practice, and be compatible and useful within almost any modern human activity. Mindfulness is simply an introspective method for grounding your thoughts, emotions and behaviors in the reality you are currently experiencing, so you can stand back, observe, understand yourself more fully and take care of your needs.
The act of Mindfulness is the ability to focus your attention on your inner thoughts while letting go of past or future worries. It will take some practice to witness your thoughts popping up and then going away without self-criticism, but it can be achieved by most people without extensive training, just daily practice. For instance, just watching your breathing can have a calming effect on your mind and slowly restore your sense of well-being. When you quiet your thoughts about what you have to do and your feelings dictating what you want to do, your intuitive mind takes over. Here you gently move from dwelling on the past or future to being focused on what you are doing right at this moment. Being in this state of Mindfulness allows you to listen to your gut and discover what you truly need. Mindfulness allows you to acknowledge your feelings, witness your thoughts and redirect yourself away from distraction.
We live in era of constant upheaval and change. Actually, most of us get through life on autopilot. Our brain gets filled with restless ideas and memories that are hard to keep track of especially when we become stressed. We tend to “tune out” and just “try to get through the day.”
Everyone’s mind naturally wanders, but when you practice Mindfulness you are aware of your mind wandering and can gradually redirect it back to the present. Mindfulness allows you to gently quiet all the noise in your head. Paying attention to your breathing, tracking your thoughts, or scanning your body for tension are just few of the many ways to reduce mental chatter. With Mindful practice, you can learn to remove the tendency to jump to conclusions, make assumptions and idle judgments, and recognize that your negative or positive feelings are coming from you and not the external world around you.
Dr Marsha Linehan, founder of Evidence Based Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) says we need to adopt a “Reflexive Mind” in order to cope with distress and change. Here, your mind is trained to act like Teflon, nothing sticks to it long enough to attach. Mindfulness has been shown to bring calmness and patience to those who embrace the practice. People who practice daily Mindfulness are processing life rather than analyzing its content. The ultimate state of Mindfulness is mental resiliency.
In fact Mindfulness can also help you stay focused and aware even when you are engaged in mundane activities such as driving, eating, and walking. Research has shown its positive effects on boosting the immune system, managing pain, reducing stress and cultivating personal awareness.
A beginning Mindful sequence may involve:
- Sitting in a quiet and comfortable location

October 6, 2012 By admin

- Thinking about where you are and what you are doing at this very moment

- Closing your eyes

- Allowing thoughts about what already or will happen move in an out of your consciousness with your non-judging mind and gentle persuasion

- Focusing on the sensations of breathing each breath and noticing what that does to your belly, nostrils and lungs

- Making note of every thought and feeling that comes up and then returning to your breathing to further anchor your attention

- Observing your mind but, not getting stuck on any one particular thought or feeling as your breathing becomes more natural, full and steady

- Opening your eyes and looking at something you have seen before with a fresh perspective.

What are Affirmations?

Affirmations are declarative statements about something you now know, did, or intend to do. When you use an Affirmation you are not only being aware of your thoughts, but you are taking conscious control of them. When you say, write, read or even think of an Affirmation, you are, in effect, taking steps to acknowledge what is worthwhile about you.

Studies have shown that most of our daily thoughts are negative. Working with Affirmations makes you aware of how self-defeating thoughts chip away at your creativity. Affirmations help you create a new reality and visualize what you essentially want out of life.

Negativity can threaten your health and happiness. In fact, when you are not paying attention to your thinking, you are more liable to pessimistic and not realistic or optimistic. The more you are aware of what you are actually telling yourself, the more upbeat you will sound. Using command based phraseology, keeping the Affirmation in the present tense and making it reality based offers you more reinforcement. Repeatedly telling yourself that you are, or will be, deserving, healthy, and successful, the more your positive determination will flow. You’re more likely to see a bounce in your step and a lift in your life by using daily Affirmations.

What are Mindful Affirmations?

” Mindful Affirmations ” are not just inspirational sayings. We use the term as thought provoking phrases that loosely derive from Mindfulness ideas of Dr. Jon Kabat-Zinn, who founded the medical and meditative models of Mindfulness. He came up with Eight Stations of Mindful Meditation:

- Smile

- Breathe

- Arrive

- Attend

- Find the essence

- Slow down

- Listen

- See things with a new perspective

Mindful Affirmations incorporate one or more of these active stations into each passage in order to support the Mindful notion of keeping an “open mind,” where possibilities have no limits. They are not meditations as used by Dr Zinn and others. Mindful Affirmations take ordinary Affirmations like “Your self-confidence will carry you on,” and make them more reality based so the reader can gradually acknowledge and accept the truth about their life. An example of expanding the above Affirmation into a Mindful Affirmation would be “I barely thought of my own self-worth until I saw myself going backwards in life. Letting myself go and losing all I had gained made me feel stuck and dependent. I now see how harnessing my self-esteem can help me not only find my way but, carry me through life.”

This phraseology helps to evoke not only the reader’s subconscious mind, but keeps the reader focused on the key of Mindfulness, just being in the moment.

Pain is about growth and is inevitable. Unfortunately, too many of us have become addicted to suffering… but suffering is optional! Mindful Affirmations make our conscious and subconscious minds look at our pain and release our fears about the unknown. Our inner subconscious mind has the desire for change but doesn’t know just what to change or how to do it. Our outer conscious mind desires to be relaxed, in balance and accept our state of affairs. When working in concert our two minds remove expectations/accusations and allow us to gently examine our feelings, thoughts and behaviors about the past without dwelling or being judgmental.

When Mindful Affirmations are written in the first person they can help the reader not only empathize with the writer, but slowly begin to accept and validate their own pain, saying inside themselves, “I guess I am not alone.” Mindful Affirmations not only break down the reader’s self-imposed isolation but offer them options for change such as in the passage, “I now see that responding rather than reacting will build a healthy interpersonal world for myself.”

It has been my clinical experience that each time I ask a patient to read a Mindful Affirmation, they mention to me that they now see their old problem in a different way. One of the core values of Mindfulness is to be able to see yourself and the world around you with a “new set of eyes.”

The focus is on accepting, commitment and learning (refers to “ACT” therapy) a new way of living or looking at life. Mindful Affirmations help the reader’s mind stay engaged while supporting the surrender of old baggage and unfulfilled expectations.

Mindful Affirmations use positive assertions like “I feel happy,” but allow our present awareness to reinforce our declaration giving us clarity of thought to see our options. It is a coping strategy. For example, the statement “When I am stressed I make myself sit and take notice of my surroundings,” supports your inner desire to stay calm and centered rather than be overwhelmed and scattered.

The book takes Affirmations to the next level by first talking about how “I” (the reader) arrived at the state of not being able to take control, what resulted, and how “I” plan to take command of my life in the future.

Using these three components to the Affirmation not only supports the drive to do better, but plants the seed more firmly that “I” will make progress and “I” can learn from my past. Mindful Affirmations are cyclical in nature. Each time a negative feeling comes up the reader has a choice to make good or bad decisions. The truth is that we are more likely to accomplish what we set out to do, if we are keenly aware of how the past made us feel and what consequences may lie ahead.

Mindful Affirmations help you not only face reality, but look beyond it by challenging your old mental dialogue with a new perspective. Mindful Affirmations allow you to step back from life enough to examine regrets and embrace new options. Mindful Affirmations help you discover that who you really are is what keeps you alive, vital and present.

Words of affirmation are so prevalent, important, and powerful but yet subtle, so subtle that we don’t even notice it being the underlining governor in our minds and in our life’s experiences. Words of affirmation have conditioned us in ways that most people have not even considered in their adult years.
For instance, we have been conditioned from school, through things like mathematics, to create problems for ourselves over and over again. Through all of the different equations we had to find to solve all of the many problem-solving questions that math teachers gave their students, and still are giving them today… we have been conditioned to create problems for ourselves. This can be turned into good if it forces us to find solutions to where our attention and focus are more steered toward solutions but unfortunately with the mental overwhelming of mind activity, and lack of concentration, we focus more on the problems and create more problems for ourselves.
But on a subconscious level we have seen the words “Problem Solving” so much in our youth that we have hardwired our brains to search out and notice problems just to solve them for the chemical rush of being right, which can put us in a state to refining our skills in that area. But most schools, at the same time of flooding students with problems to solve, have numerous intellectual commitments, assignments, test, exams, essay papers and many other things that keep the mind at a constant turbulent multi tasking state.
This unfortunately makes it harder for kids to realize and expand their talents and concentration skills and interest because they are mentally tired from all of the requirements of problem solving. Whenever things seem to be going right, the minds is conditioned to seek out a problem that is hidden and the world respond and bring us situations to deal with that we interpret as problems to solve.
Not a lot of attention was put into concentration, contemplation, mental rehearsal and imagination. More of the attention was on problem solving and measuring apartness and separation and calculating reactions and implementing solutions. This can be effective if used rightly but we fail to ascend from the problematic limited way of thinking to the expressions of creativity, abundance and infinite possibilities ways of thinking.
This same mentality has creeped into the minds of most adults and the word job is the new school for problem solving mechanisms using some form of “work”. We have forgotten unconditional love and hardwired our families to be computers to survive in this tough financial problem solving society.
The love has been striped out of families for survival because on an unconscious level we have prepared and organized our brains to seek out problems to solve without us even knowing it which cripples the idea of enhancing and refining our skill to strategies and master challenges in a subconscious and automatic implicit way for a desired outcome using concentration and pure powerful thinking.
We seem to have been stuck in a problem-seeking mode and when we get overwhelmed we go on vacation with the family to catch up on expressing love and life. Our spirit guide knows that it needs love to continue life’s full expression rather our minds allow it or not. This is what creates the imbalance in our wholeness because our intent in mind is different than our intent in heart.
We have been programmed to survive and as parents we sometimes see our kids as motivation to survive which works for a while but you naturally need to Love, Love and Love first. Seek the way of the creator first and your needs will be meet. But we have been delivered from youth, certain problematic words of affirmation in our DNA unconsciously, that has implicitly become our automatic behaviors and ways of thinking.
Love and life has become secondary to surviving. What a tiresome way of living life. Oh lets survive by getting a job, paying bills and keeping a roof over our heads, food on the table and clothes on our backs and then when we have time we will pay attention to one another.
I am explaining the high maintenance family who is conditioned to work, work and work to live and find time to play in between some how. They are prime examples of the conditioning of creating problems over and over again to have to deal with when our minds cannot consciously manage all of the problems we have created with the constant exposure to problematic words of affirmation.
The people who master these problem-solving techniques become our leaders in government, education, media and mainstream. They set the tone and reinforce a system that creates a world of chaos and limitations because all the problems are based on limitation, apartness, labels and division and we have identified our selves and who we think we are with our ability to solve problems.
This is why the entrepreneur world is so big because there are so many problems and an entrepreneur is no more than some one who solves problems and address needs for people for a profit. Helping the needy has become life’s purpose because the parasite exists in the minds of the poverties but Christ consciousness is the keys to full fill this gap. There are many needs in this world because the adversary, through mind, has kept the knowledge away from us of how to create abundance instead of limitations.
From the jump early school systems painted the picture of education that they wanted us to see so that we will live a life of trading time in for ends meet. They know time is limited, which is a problem for us, if that is what you have to rely on to survive. They have mentally equipped us to be in a rat race of specific problems that we had no part in creating. We are at the bottom of the employee food chain acting out as parts of the equation that the successful problem solver has put in place and created a business out of.
This may seem all to coincidental or distant for a lot of people but I assure you if you look deeper you will see that the underlining words of affirmation that has been hardwired in our intellect corresponds equally to

August 12, 2012 By admin

what we believe and what we manifest in our present reality.

The very few wealthy people in the world have surpassed this limited way of thinking and they see that there are no limitation problems in the now. They see what most people label as problems as challenges that they have learned to graciously overcome. They have implanted into their memory program a new set of words of affirmation. Affirmations are so effective in our lives rather we are affirming abundance or limitation. Whatever you organize your brain to tell you is what it will produce.

Most people do not realize that words of affirmation works on an unconscious level in a very big way. Our unconscious thoughts produce measurable changes in our physiology but most people are not aware of the unconscious thinking in their heads. If you are worrying about some future moment in the back of your head and you can’t consciously remember exactly what it is your worrying about at that moment, you are affirming some form of words that have been planted in your subconscious.

We have been conditioned by time to treat the present moment as a problem or an obstacle that needs to be over come. Some how we have gotten stuck in the “oh no its another problem” mode. The idea of no problems but only challenges and solutions starts to make your brain works differently but that different feeling is the unknown. The familiar is so seductive because we can relate to what a problem feels like.

PEACE AFFIRMATIONS

We have not hardwired our brain to experience a reflection of paradise with ultimate peace and only love because of the parasite in our mind that keeps the past alive. Every time we think there is no problems, the body and mind conditioned past finds a problem. Christ tried to present us another way of living when he implied to his followers that they should live like nature. He said look at the lilies and the birds. See how they grow with no stress or toil. You can live like that too.

The only way we can live like that is through the thoughts we choose to focus on in this moment. In order to live like the lily your thoughts has to be natural and clear like the growth of the lily. We must allow life to be freely with an attitude of peace and wholeness no matter what the present circumstance. This action creates a reaction of peace in the future.

The karma for a natural flower is natural beauty because it’s action and reaction is natural with no distress and rooted in love. It takes in just enough solar energy and water and the roots grow and create beauty on the outside through the creators love. The only thing that gets in the way of us living our lives so peacefully like the Lilly and the bird is fear in the human mind. We have lost control of it do to the conditioning of problem solving words of affirmation.

We have to gain control of our subconscious memory system and alter our attention to abundant words of affirmation. We have been condition by school for most of our early years so more than likely you have to unlearn some things you’ve been taught. Whatever words of affirmation you have plant in your mental garden, will be the same words that grows in your physical world as manifestation of things and reality and now is the time to pluck up roots and plant new seeds.

Then the new seeds of abundance have to become deeply rooted and implicit so that it can be automatic. Peace and love becomes second nature and all other needs are added as a result of producing compassion now.

Words of Affirmations effect life in many different areas

· Affirmations for healing

· Affirmations for abundance

· Affirmations for wealth

· Self Confidence Affirmations

· Positive Thinking Affirmations

· Affirmations of Happiness

· Affirmations for Money

· Affirmations for Relationships

· Audio Affirmation

Pluck up the negative words of affirmations that creeped in unconsciously through

· Affirmations of Problems

· Affirmations of Limitation

· Affirmations of Disease

· Affirmations of Anger

· Affirmations of Fighting

· Affirmations of Surviving

· Affirmations of Fear

· Affirmations of Victim

These words of affirmations come in through many ways- from what we read, what we see on televisions and the news, what we learned in school, what we experience at work, what we hear on radio, what we perceive from others, what we see in hospitals, what we experience through drama and chaotic episodes, what we hear in church and what we learn from surviving life situations.

Our conscious mind is like a compass and it guides our subconscious by the words of affirmations we hold in our mind and make more real than anything else. Words are thoughts externalized and as a man think in his heart, so is he. This explains why we become what we have affirmed implicitly. Our spirit guide has to plant new affirmations but first it must make unconscious negative affirmations conscious so that we can recognize it and be in a position to choose a different way of affirming our experiences continuously.

We are constantly affirming reality through the words of affirmations we have stored in our storehouse of affirmations. If we have affirmed going to school, getting good grades and graduating and going to college then working for 8 hours a day, 40 hours a week for 40 years and retire, then rest assure you will get exactly that.

Bill Gates wired into his brain a different set of affirmations than the large crowd. He stepped out of the norm and created Microsoft words of affirmation and this stepping out of the norm yielded him a life that stands apart from the normal affirmations of lack. The few people who followed him took on a new mental organization in which they believed enough in his affirmation of abundance in computer programs.

What words have you affirmed in your mind? Have you affirmed problems or have you affirmed abundance? Have you focused more attentions on bills and confrontations or have you focused more on wealth and peace? Where is your point of awareness?

How are you implicitly affirmed to react to challenges in your life situations? Have you mentally prepared yourself to respond to money as of though it is abundant or have you prepared your response to be one of lack and not enough? If you look closely at how you feel and the certain way you act towards money you will see that your world and experiences about money comes to you in an exact proportion of your corresponding inner state.

We can only perceive what our brain is organized to tell us. Perhaps the reason why we have not perceive the life of a millionaire is because we have not organized our brains to attain millionaire status. A millionaire thought is a millionaire seed.

Choosing A Dating Location and Activity

August 9, 2012 By admin

Choosing A Dating Location and Activity

Many times, dating can be like real estate: location, location, location! The value of a house depends more on the house’s neighborhood than the house itself. Similarly, a date can only be as good as the setting. Unfortunately, there is no ‘one-size fits all’ date location or activity. When choosing the location of the date you must consider the specifics, such as your dates interests and how long you two have known each other.

No Experimenting On Early Dates

For a couple that has been together for a while, it can be fun to experiment with new places, such as a just-opened Indian-food restaurant. This is because a long-term couple will have already gone out on many dates to usual places. New and unknown places keep the dates interesting.

While daters are still getting to know each other, however, it works in the opposite way. New daters cannot afford to risk having a bad experience. While the risk makes the date interesting for a long-term couple, that same risk threatens the chances of even having another date for a new couple.

For example, imagine going to a new restaurant and finding out the service is terrible. What if the waiter spilled a drink all over your date?! A long-term couple may just laugh this off. However, if this is your first date, your date will probably be upset and want to go home.

Avoid The Classics

The old dinner-and-a-movie type of dates are over-done and boring. If you suggest this you may seem unoriginal and lazy to your date. This is especially important and true for early dates or first dates. What you want to do is think of a location and activity that is creative and original. You have to think of something interesting to do, so that your date will be interested in the date long enough to find out how interesting you yourself are.

Choose Your Date’s Interests

When thinking of somewhere to go, you should consider what your date likes doing. Obviously, it will go better if your date enjoys the activity you are doing. If it consists of activities and locations that bore your date, then your date will transfer those feelings of disinterest onto you. In other words, if the location or activity is boring to your date, then your date will think you are boring.

You do not have to choose something your date specifically told you that he or she likes. Rather, you can choose an offshoot of something he or she likes. In fact, it is better to choose something that your date did not specifically tell you, because you will look more creative. For example, if you know your date is a Jet Li fan, then you could suggest going on a date to a martial arts class. Or, if you know your date likes to watch movies, you could suggest going on a date to a movie studio.

Location, Location, Location

Use the above tips to choose a great location and activity for your date. Pay attention to how your date reacts to the activity and location. Do not just listen to what your date says; make sure to read body language as well. If your date seems bored or uninterested, stop what you are doing earlier and either move the date to a new location and start a new activity, or end the date early. Remember, it is better to end the date early and go on another date another time than it is to keep going with a bad date and ruin the chances of another. Good luck!

Computer Forensic Examiner Uncovers Digital Evidence Of Criminal Activity

Computer Forensics now aid in solving crimes

We now live in a digital age where the computer permeates almost every aspect of our lives. Almost all transactions and records of our activities are now recorded electronically. Unfortunately, the digital era has also ushered in an age of digital crime.

Computer forensics involves searching computers for evidence of crime and also for evidence in traditional crimes. Some examples of cybercrime include hacking, releasing viruses and various internet scams such as phishing or spoofing of real web sites.

The specialists who uncover digital evidence of criminal activity and assists in presenting evidence are called Computer Forensics specialists or Computer Forensic examiners. The Forensic Specialist is an expert on retrieving lost hidden or deleted information on any electronic device. These specialists may be employed by the government, in law enforcement or in private practice.

This type of forensics is basically a multiform process that includes many complex steps. The first part in the process includes investigation of computer data to uncover evidence of criminal activities. The second part involves analyzing and using the evidence found in the computer, either in or out of court.

Computer Forensics examiners are usually well qualified.

Both civil and criminal proceedings often make use of evidence, provided by computer forensic examiners who may be hired in diverse areas.

Law enforcement: Assistance is usually provided in the handling of seized computer equipment

Criminal Prosecution: Computer evidence is used in a variety of cases where incriminating documents can be found such child pornography,homicides, financial fraud and embezzlement.

Insurance companies: Forensic Specialists may be used to uncover evidence of false accident, workman`s compensation claims and arson.

Corporations: Forensics specialists are hired to search employee computers for records of sexual harassment,embezzlement or theft of trade secrets.

Employees may also hire forensic examiners to support claims of wrongful dismissal or age discrimination.

Computer Forensics is quite different from other forensics disciplines, and knowledge of other fields are often required. In addition to being impartial, a computer forensic examiner will typically have a wide range of experience with various types of hardware and software. The specialist should also have the required skill to search a computer thoroughly enough to access deleted, encrypted and password protected files and other forms of hidden evidence. Additionally, the forensic examiner should be familiar with hardware architecture to know where on the computer to look for the most relevant data. In addition, since most computers are networked in industrial environments, the specialist should also have knowledge of network architecture.

Forensic examiners can perform either on-site inspections of the computer or laboratory inspections of seized equipment. The most crucial step is making sure that all files are copied. Searching computer files may sometimes alter or even destroy data, and integrity of all data should be preserved to allow for admissibility in courts.

Special training for computer forensics is available

It is essential for forensic technicians to have extensive knowledge of computer operating systems, including models and systems no longer in use. Whether your interest lies in capturing criminals or in the technical challenges of computer searches, a career in computer forensics can be very fulfilling and very rewarding.

I Hear Voices…
This is not a statement of paranormal; it is a statement of truth. Yes, we all have an inner voice…Is yours an ally or an enemy? Do you realize you say things to yourself you would never let anyone else say to you? Don’t let your inner voice tear you down and strip away your confidence.
All outward success first starts with inward success…learn the secret strategies to winning communication with your self.

“Men ought to know that from the brain and from the brain only, arise our pleasures, joys, laughter and sorrows. …Through it, we think, see, hear and distinguish the ugly from the beautiful, the bad from the good, the pleasant from the unpleasant…To consciousness, the brain is messenger.” -Hippocrates

Did you know that each day you have more than 50,000 random thoughts flying around in your head? You might find it interesting to note that we all have voices in our head. Sometimes the voice is calm and reassuring providing you with great confidence in your abilities. Other times, this voice is the negative and self limiting voice that calls into question all of your deficiencies. The voice that brings up all of the past failures and shortcomings and reminds you of all of the things you have going against you.
In sports, this voice is the last thing you hear before you take action. In interaction with others, it is sometimes the voice that challenges your worth in relation to others and weakens our own esteem.
Although we are born with this amazing supercomputer, the most complex and incredible instrument known in the universe, it does not come with an owner’s manual.

Success principles are not secrets; they are hiding in plain view.

Famed journalist, Edward R. Murrow remarked, “The obscure we eventually see. The completely obvious, it seems, takes longer.” They are not reserved for the rich or famous, but to everyone who will apply them. We are inborn by our creator with tools to guide us and protect us and to open the world of abundance to us; if only we will let it.
Like understanding the law of gravity will place you on your bottom if you violate it, principles of success are laws of nature. Every idea you produce consciously produces subconscious activity to fulfill what was first created in your mind.
A farmer choosing what to plant in a field is like the conscious mind. The field itself is the subconscious mind. Whatever the farmer plants, the field grows. The field does not possess a will of its own; it must grow what was planted. It would be ridiculous to think of the farmer planting corn and having beans grow. In the same way your subconscious mind will carry out the actions our conscious mind directs. If the farmer neglects the field and plants nothing, there will still be growth. The growth will be wild and weedy based on whatever was accidentally planted.
Over time the field will be out of control with weeds. In the same way our minds, if not consciously directed, will fill with mental weeds.
There is good news!
The good news is that just like any other skill, you can learn to take greater control of your inner voice and in doing so, create greater control of your life.
“The greatest discovery of my generation is that human beings can alter their lives by altering their attitudes of mind.” -William James

Create Your Destiny
with the
Power Of
Questions and Affirmations

The Power of Positive Questions
Most people ask themselves the wrong question which produces a negative subconscious effect. You can learn to program your super computer brain by learning to ask yourself the right questions. The key is to ask yourself solution-based, positive and empowering questions rather than negative, disempowered, problematic questions.
In the past, you may have asked questions like the following. “Why am I so fat?” “Why is my life such a failure?” “Why do bad things always happen to me?” “Why am I so stupid?” These questions and all the ones like it take a terrible toll on you.
First they start with a negative assumption, stated as fact with the question supporting the wrong conclusion. If you ask yourself, “Why is my life in the crapper?” any answer you give provides support to the negative assumption. This can be compared to an attorney taking a witness from the opposing side down the path to prove the lawyer’s point.
Next time you find yourself doing this, interrupt yourself with the quip, “Objection your Honor; leading the witness!”
Improving your condition comes through asking yourself better questions. This allows the creative inspiration to work through our subconscious to bring about the conditions or magnetize the conditions we seek.
You not only have the ability, but also all the resources necessary to learn anything you need to learn to fulfill any ambition or achieve any goal you desire. The goal for your questions to yourself in any situation should be outcome or solution based. The assumption is that there is an issue that needs to be fixed. Rather than what was presented above, look at an approach leading to an action conclusion. “What do I need to change about my habits to get to my fitness goal?” “What do I want to do with my life that gives me meaning and satisfaction?” “What do I need to do differently to change this string of results?” “What can I learn and apply from this?” “What is affecting my mood that makes me feel my life is not going the right direction?”
Tony Robbins asserts, “Questions provide the key to unlocking our unlimited potential.” Probably the single best question you can begin to ask yourself in any situation is, “What outcome do I want from this event/situation?”
You may certainly wish to adapt this slightly, but when you go into a situation, whether it is a business meeting or negotiation or class, knowing your desired outcome is vital. As I began to work on this habit in earnest for myself, I was simply amazed at how many actions I took and how many activities I worked on without asking this clearly up front? I need to research a better mortgage for my house. What is my ideal outcome? Is it lower payments, less interest over time, more house for my money, flexibility? Without knowing the right question, the answers don’t help much. What outcome do I desire for my relationship with my spouse and children? Do I know and plan or just let it happen?
We have the power through understanding and training of our subconscious minds to plant the seeds and affirm health, security, happiness, abundance. We also have the opportunity to allow society’s programming to plant the seeds of lack, insecurity, fear, doubt, and negativity. I am not speaking about deep hypnosis or anything out of the ordinary.
It takes practice to keep your mind free from worry and insecurity. It takes dedication to constantly feed your mind new information and positive stimuli that will provide positive associations. It takes vigilance to associate with positive people and positive influences. Make sure your questions ask for what you want, not what you don’t want.
Remember…your mind is a supercomputer. In addition to the information and educational programming you provide as input to your computer, how you talk to yourself and the questions you ask is the most influential factor in your outcome.
The Simple Power of Affirmations
We need to find a way to control our thoughts to keep them as allies rather than adversaries. In her book, The Secret Door To Success, the late Florence Scovel Shinn talks about having a Watchman at the gate of our thoughts. Her assertion is that we have the power to choose our thoughts. She uses an analogy of a single sheep dog controlling frightened sheep into the pen through gentle determination.
“We cannot always control our thoughts, but we can control our words, and repetition impresses the subconscious, and we are then master of the situation.”
Although her book was written in the early 1900s, she hits upon a tool that is one of the best and yet underutilized tool for controlling and programming your thoughts, the power of affirmation.
Affirmation as a mental programming technique is an extremely powerful tool, yet one that is scoffed at by many. Affirmations are tremendously misunderstood and very much underutilized. What you may not realize is that you use them all the time although most time not to your benefit. Affirmations are simply statements of intent. You can develop into all that you desire to be based on what you chose to affirm about yourself.
I Am The Greatest!!
Mohammad Ali is one of the most widely known and recognized sports figures as a former heavyweight boxing champion of the world. Ali is famous for his repeating of an affirmation he used with great effectiveness to convince not only himself, but also his opponents and the rest of the world. “I am the Greatest!” Mohammad Ali’s affirmation created his legacy.
Like goals, affirmations work best when they are worded in the present tense as “I am” or “I achieve” type statements. The mind cannot hold a negative. Affirmations are nothing more than affirming the truth as you wish it to be to instruct your subconscious mind to take action in that direction. It is really very simple.
Affirmations help you believe in your dreams and what you wish to be. Belief is essential to convincing your subconscious to act the direction you want to go. Affirmations are like exercise. You will not see immediate results until you create the habit which over time helps you build strength in yourself and in your beliefs. This ultimately affects your actions which affect your results.
An affirmation in some cases might be a lie at present, but you are in a sense trying to convince your subconscious that it can be true to make it a reality in the future.

“To affirm anything is to state that it is so, and to maintain this as being true in the face of all evidence to the contrary. Repeating an affirmation is leading the mind to that state of consciousness where it accepts that which it wishes to believe.”-Ernest Holmes

Sometimes we inadvertently affirm and reinforce old established beliefs. “I am so stupid.” “I’m going to lose this account.” “I always flub this shot.” “There is no way I can make this deadline.” “I gain weight just smelling chocolate.” “I need a drink.” “I am a horrible golfer.” I can’t speak in public.” “I could never write a book.” “I am such a klutz.” “I never win.” “I’m not smart enough to do that.” “I could never do something like that.” “I am such an idiot sometimes.” “I would lose my head if it were not attached.”
Have you ever said things like this to yourself; or worse to others about yourself? Of course you have…we all have done this. This kind of talk while sometimes self effacing and done for positive effect, can actually have negative consequences. If taken to extreme and developed into a habit or pattern of self talk, the message and programming can be damaging. The issue that separates people is their underlying attitudes and beliefs about themselves. How do you respond to setbacks and adversity? Do you take it in stride, or do you take the glum and negative approach of “this always happens to me, I never catch a break, etc.”
The other choice is to create and affirm and reinforce our desired positive beliefs. This happens all day long, moment by moment, and takes hold a little at a time. “This is easy.” “I only eat when I am hungry.” “I feel great when I exercise.” “I know I can drop the pounds when I put my mind to it.” “What an awesome day!” “I don’t run and hide from problems, I attack.” “I feel great!” “My life is really working.” “I see a lot of opportunities in this situation.”
I have one friend who repeats to herself daily an affirmation of, “I feel healthy, I feel happy, I feel terrific!” Every time I see this person, I can tell it is real, applied and working in her life. Another friend of mine, when asked how she is, replies glumly sounding like the always depressed Eyore from Winnie The Pooh, “I’m here.”
You make the call which one is progressing faster in their lives. Can you guess which one has more abundant opportunities “luckily” come her way?
The Art (and Science) of Affirmations
When you learn to change and direct your thoughts and your internal communication your life will reflect the change (law of correspondence). Creating affirmations can change your beliefs and change the course of your life. For affirmations and autosuggestion to be effective it needs to have the following six elements. In order to be effective, your positive declarations should embody most or all of the following characteristics:
Personal (Usually a statement beginning with I)

July 8, 2012 By admin

Positive (The mind cannot hold a picture of a negative)

Present Tense (The time is now)

Short (Easy to remember and easy apply)

Specific (A specific target allows for a specific course of action and most direct route)

Emotionally Intense (This is necessary to break through the clutter of the thousands of thoughts and images that you are bombarded with on a daily basis)

The real goal is to imbed this into the subconscious to allow it to do the yeoman’s work. The only real obstacle is convincing your subconscious that you are serious and committed and that you truly have a burning desire for what you want. Long-term change will only happen when there is congruency between who you think you are and how you act and behave and the choices that we make.

Affirmations are Catalyst for Success

Positive affirmations mixed with emotional intensity produce amazing results. Music is an amazing mood catalyst. To really get the most out of affirmations and create an incredible Incremental Advantage in their effectiveness in your life, I suggest recording your affirmations to inspiring music.

A good friend of mine challenged me to do just this ten years ago. I purchased an inexpensive karaoke machine, put an upbeat instrumental tape in and recorded all of the affirmations I could create to change behaviors and support my goals.

Unless you are willing to step out of your comfort zone and give this a real opportunity to work in your life, you could never know the simply incredible power and way that this mental programming technique can work in your life. I literally wore my first tape out listening to it, but it created significant leverage and results for me. I know the vast majority reading this will not make the commitment to this habit. It is a shame, but for those of you who do, I promise your results in every area of your life will improve as your internal communication improves. I constantly look for, borrow, adapt and write down affirmations. I cannot claim originality for all of them as they have been collected and changed over the years.

I turn challenges into opportunities.

I eliminate debt as dead weight and a YOKE around my neck. I will only be as free as I am free from debt.

I am a leader and a developer of people!

I am calm and composed under pressure.

Stress makes me stonger.

I utilize my strengths and abilities to benefit everyone I come into contact with.

I actively pursue excellence in myself and others.

I get up at 5:00 every morning feeling energized and ready to take on the day.

I face my fears and conquer them.

I am empowered by the energy that I feel and that flows through me.

My daily routines are positive and improving.

I always increase my value to other people.

I am flexible and adaptable in every situation. I look for creative alternatives and seek out new ways of accomplishing my goals.

I have money in savings and a balanced plan for security and income growth.

I see people, not as they are, but rather for what they can be.

I am a strong, motivated and extremely dedicated leader.

I am a great leader and achieve my victories thru the victories of those I serve.

I choose to spend my time with positive and forward thinking life affirming people.

I am persistent in the pursuit of my goals.

Solutions and alternative ideas come easy for me.

I take time each day to play and to enjoy my family.

I am an excellent role model for others.

I forget the mistakes of the past and press on to my greatest achievement.

“What a man thinks of himself that is what determines, or rather indicates his fate.”

“I have learned this at least by my experiment: that if one advances confidently in the direction of his dreams, and endeavors to live the life which he has imagined, he will meet with a success unexpected in common hours.”

-Henry David Thoreau

Great Health Benefits from Simple Aerobic Activity

Great Health Benefits from Simple Aerobic Activity

What is Aerobics really, and what can it do for you? Aerobics and aerobic exercise refer to the process of physical conditioning which is designed to improve respiration and circulation. The word itself means ‘with oxygen’. Any exercise, such as running, swimming, biking, jogging, or even doing exercise videos in your home achieve this.

What are the benefits of aerobics? First and foremost the improved circulation increases blood flow to your muscles. This causes them to consume more calories and also enables them to strengthen. Other benefits of improved circulation are myriad, but foremost is the fact that any healing your body can do must start with good blood flow.

Sustained aerobic exercise for 30 minutes can burn as many as 300 calories. A healthy adult on a reasonable diet should consume (consult your physician before embarking on any diet) roughly 2000 calories. This means that daily exercise can decrease your calorie intake by 2100 every week, or have the effect of removing all of the calorie intake for one day. Think about it, that’s the weight loss benefit of skipping an entire day of eating once a week, without actually skipping the eating!

Additionally, regular exercise increases your BMR (base metabolic rate) and causes you to burn more calories even when at rest. Other benefits also include:

Improvement of your respiratory system by strengthening muscles

Tones muscles which improves blood circulation

Improves the flow of oxygen around your heart and lungs

Remove toxins from your body. Your lymph system has no pumps, it needs you to move to flush toxins out of your body

All of these benefits combine to keep you healthy and help your body heal itself. It’s the best medicine there is!

Third Quarter New Foreclosure Activity Up in 65% of US Metro Areas

Third Quarter New Foreclosure Activity Up in 65% of US Metro Areas

RealtyTrac, a premier online marketplace for foreclosure properties issued its Q3 2010 Metropolitan Foreclosure Market Report, which displays that towns in California, Florida, Nevada and Arizona one time afresh accounted for all peak 10 foreclosure rates in the third quarter amidst metropolitan localities with a community of 200,000 or more, while towns out-of-doors those four states accounted for most of the large-scale rises in metro new foreclosure activity.

California, Florida, Nevada and Arizona towns furthermore accounted for 19 of the peak 20 metro foreclosure rates. The only exclusion was Boise City-Nampa, Idaho at No. 14, which was furthermore one of only five metro localities grading in the peak 20 to mail a year-over-year boost in foreclosure activity-along with the Florida metro localities of Miami-Fort Lauderdale-Pompano Beach at No. 7, Deltona-Daytona Beach-Ormond at No. 15, Naples-Marco Island at No. 18, and Palm Bay-Melbourne-Titusville at No. 19.

Among all 206 metro environs pursued in the report, even so, 133 (65%) sent year-over-year growth in foreclosure activity. Eleven of the nation’s 20 greatest metro environs sent year-over-year increases. Seattle-Tacoma-Bellevue commanded the way with a 71% advance in foreclosure pursuit from the third quarter of 2009, chased by Chicago-Naperville-Joliet with a 35% advance, Houston-Sugar Land-Baytown with a 26% advance, Detroit-Warren-Livonia with a close to 23% advance, and Atlanta-Sandy Springs-Marietta with a 20% increase.

“The implicit troubles that are producing homeowners to omit their mortgage payments-high redundancy,underemployment, unhealthy advances and opposing equity-are carrying on to plague most restricted dwellings markets,” said James J. Saccacio, head manager staff of Realty Trac. “And these historic high foreclosure rates will carry on until those troubles are resolved.”

Top 10 metro foreclosure rates

Las Vegas-Paradise carried on to send the nation’s utmost metro foreclosure rate in the third quarter, with one in every 25 dwellings entities (3.98%) accepting a foreclosure filing-more than five times the countrywide average. A total of 32,288 properties in the metro environs accepted a foreclosure filing as long as the quarter, an advance of 1% from the earlier quarter but a decrease of 20% from the third quarter of 2009.

Cape Coral-Fort Myers, Fla., documented the nation’s second largest metro foreclosure rate, with one in every 35 lodgings flats (2.84%) obtaining a foreclosure filing throughout the third quarter-nearly four times the nationwide average. A total of 10,352 properties in the metro locality obtained a foreclosure filing throughout the quarter, an boost of 12% from the preceding quarter, but a decline of almost 22% from the third quarter of 2009. The other Florida metro locality in the peak 10 was Miami-Fort Lauderdale-Pompano Beach at No. 7 (2.42%).

With one in every 36 lodgings flats (2.76%) obtaining a foreclosure filing throughout the third quarter, Modesto, Calif., dispatched the third largest metro foreclosure rate regardless of an 18% decline in foreclosure undertaking from the third quarter of 2009. Other California metro localities in the peak 10 were Stockton at No. 4 (2.59%); Merced at No. 5 (2.48%); Riverside-San Bernardino-Ontario at No. 6 (2.46%); Bakersfield at No. 9 (2.25%); and Vallejo-Fairfield at No. 10 (2.23%).

Phoenix-Mesa-Scottsdale dispatched the nation’s eighth largest metro foreclosure rate, with one in every 44 lodgings flats (2.28%) obtaining a foreclosure filing throughout the third quarter.

States with highest foreclosure levels

Miami-Fort Lauderdale-Pompano Beach found 58,624 properties receiving a foreclosure filing in the third quarter, the highest total countrywide among metropolitan paddocks with a population of 200,000 or more. Miami foreclosure achievement enhanced virtually 25% from the beforehand quarter and was higher 9% from the third quarter of 2009.

A total of 48,849 properties in Los Angeles-Long Beach-Santa Ana paddock received a foreclosure filing in the third quarter, the second highest metro total in spite of a 3% forfeit from the beforehand quarter and a virtually 30% forfeit from the third quarter of 2009.

Chicago-Naperville-Joliet found the third highest metro total, with 44,732 properties receiving a foreclosure filing during the quarter, a 6% enhance from the beforehand quarter and a 35% enhance from the third quarter of 2009.

Life Changing Benefits of Cardio Activity

March 26, 2012 By admin

Life Changing Benefits of Cardio Activity

Cardiovascular Training Primary Purpose

The No. 1 benefit of following an aerobic exercise plan is the change in your cardiovascular fitness that results from this kind of training regimen.

Cardiovascular Training is aimed at improving your heart muscle and cardiovascular system. Your heart is a muscle. Like any muscle, it becomes stronger with exercise and can pump blood more efficiently. Regular aerobic exercise causes your lungs to process more oxygen with less effort; your heart to pump more blood with fewer beats; and the blood supply directed to your muscles to increase. As a result, by performing cardiovascular exercises, you are increasing your body’s endurance and efficiency. At the same time, exercise also improves the performance of the muscles in the rest of your body.

Research shows that the specific benefits of regular low impact cardiovascular (aka aerobic exercise) includes:

Strengthens your heart

Reduces cardiovascular risk factors such as high blood pressure, diabetes and high cholesterol.

Increases life span. Several studies published in the New England Journal of Medicine, scientifically linked exercise with increased life spans for the first time. A famous study looked at 17,000 male alumni of Harvard University between the ages of 35 and 74. Results show that the physical activities of the men increased, their death rate decreased. Men who spend at least 2,000 kilocalories per week doing moderate exercises such as tennis, swimming, jogging or brisk walking lowered their overall death rate by 25-33% and decreased their risk of coronary artery disease by an astounding 41% when compared to the more inactive fellow alumni.

Improves quality of life. Less chronic muscle pain, less stiffness and greater mobility are all benefits of exercising.

Reduces the risk for certain diseases. Extra weight is a contributing factor to conditions such as heart disease, high blood pressure, stroke, Type 2 diabetes (adult-onset diabetes) and some forms of cancer. As you lose weight, your risk of developing these diseases decreases.

This is an introduction to the first four of Prosperity’s 12 Affirmations, a scripturally based, spiritual approach to prosperity. These affirmations are action oriented and highly effective if you are willing to systematically affirm the following statements or statements of your own crafting that capture their essence.
Prosperity’s 12 Affirmations are 12 powerful affirmations of prosperity and well-being drawn from the 10 Commandments (Exodus 20:1-17). The book Prosperity’s 10 Commandments by Georgiana Tree West was the inspiration for the creation of Prosperity’s 10 Affirmations. But at some point, I was moved to add Jesus’ 2 great commandments found in Matthew 22:37-39, thus expanding the affirmations to 12. Why create affirmations for prosperity when we have commandments, admonitions and suggestions in scripture, books and courses by the dozen? I believe that often we hear commandments and wish to obey them, but we may stumble because we don’t have a process to make the commandments part of our thinking, speaking and behavior. One way to internalize the spirit of a commandment is to affirm it in language and action until it becomes an automatic part of our behavior. By affirming Prosperity’s 1st four Affirmations each day, we can begin to make these powerful principles of prosperity a fundamental part of our daily activity.
Prosperity’s 1st Four Affirmations
I look to God as my only Source of wealth. Prosperity’s 1st Affirmation is foundational. A prosperous life is based on the idea that all that we need or want material and non-material, visible and invisible; comes from God, the Creator of all that is.
I create prosperity, abundance and wealth images. As human beings we are wired to create mental “images”. An image is a mental representation of anything not actually present in the senses (Webster). Everything we create is first created as a mental image before it is formed in manifest three dimensional forms.
I only speak words that affirm sufficiency, abundance and prosperity. There is power in every word we speak. Therefore, our intention is to speak the most beneficial words which come to mind. When our words are born of the Truth of Spirit they are creative.
I surrender the details of my wealth creation to God. Rest and surrender are key ideas in living this affirmation. We want to release our need to be in constant activity as well as to let go of every thought, habit and circumstance that inhibits our experience of prosperity. More importantly, we let go of our finite activity and allow God’s infinite activity to complete the creation process.
The essence of these four affirmations concerns our relationship with God, just as the focus of the the first four Commandments is with our relationship with God, making these statements ideal for beginning a prospering relationship with the Propsering Power of the Universe, God.
Next Steps
Now, it is time for you to take action by spending time repeating these 4 affirmations or crafting new affirmations that you find personally empowering. The key is to spend time with these ideas and to make them your own. These 4 affirmations, affirm our prospering relationship with the Source of our wealth – God. Now, how can you internalize these first 4 affirmations and make them a part of your habitual thinking?
