China Courier Services – 1.3 Billion People Await

With a potential market of more than 1.3 billion people awaiting, businesses looking to expand their services would do well to note the enormous opportunities that exist within China. In an attempt to control the ever growing population, the government included a law that China’s residents could only have one child, this policy was introduced in 1978 but, as with many laws, there are loopholes that people have been taking advantage of for years. This policy is just one of many that are different to the Western world and any company looking to move into China, needs to understand the complexities of the Chinese market before making an entrance.

With such a large population, it is no surprise that exports and imports from the country is one of the largest in the world and shipping to and from the UK to China has always been in demand. Many of the leading companies in the world have a presence in China which means there are many markets open to new entrants, although analysing the opportunities there and the possibility of success is an extremely important thing to do. The rise of the Chinese economy to one of the strongest in the world has meant that an increasing number of companies, as well as members of the general public, have looked for the leading Chinese parcel delivery services on the market and they do not have to look far to find them as the best deals and couriers are all available online.

The way of the business world in the modern era means international business is a common thing and whilst picking up a phone, conference call, emailing and video conferencing is still the best way to communicate, sometimes you need to send a client something by air, sea or road (or indeed a combination of the three) to promote your brand, send them an important package containing documents and products or send a care package to a friend or family member who may have decided to move to China to experience a new and exciting culture first hand.

China is an amazing place to visit and there is so much on offer to all those that go to experience it. For all businesses that require the needs of a Chinese courier, make sure you go online where the best deals are available. This will ensure that your company stays a step ahead of its competitors and ensure you are in good stead for the future.

The Next 100 Billion Dollar Business? The Simple Authority Site Secret That Will Make You Rich

Who else is sick and tired of trying to get rich online with gimmicks, gadgets and guru's? Think that little known marketing "secret" or underground trick or technique is going to make you wealthy? Have you convinced yourself that selling ClickBank eBooks, or affiliate programs is going to allow you the sort of lifestyle you truly deserve? Or, maybe like I once did long ago … You think that you are going to earn REAL wealth with a personal blog that details your entrepreneurial rags to riches journey and inspire millions on your way to the top of the mountain?

Think again.

The truth is, you have more of a chance, statistically … earning a 6 figure salary in a real world, conventional career, than you would try or applying any of the ideas above in the online entrepreneurial space.

But … Before you think I'm suggesting you give UP on your online entrepreneurial aspirations, I'm not. Instead, I want to share a few very simple inspired ideas that have worked wonderfully well for me, as well as thousands of other real world entrepreneurs who are doing what we love for a living. (many of whom, have turned the simple ideas below into multi million or even multi BILLION dollar business to boot)

Curious to know more? Continue reading as we take a quick look at a few simple rules that WILL transform your brand, blog, business and bank account … immediately below.

Rule # 1: BUILD Something

98% of the online entrepreneurs I meet are always trying to sell something. Whether it's an affiliate product, or a coaching course, or even an inexpensive eBook … That model may offer a slender shred of quick success, but it's not a viable way to build enduring value.

Building something, instead of selling something, is a far better long term strategy for not only creating real wealth for yourself, but building real value in your niche, market or industry as well.

Consider THIS for a moment.

AIRBNB is forecast by some high dollar investors (including one of the founders of PayPal, Peter Thiel) as the next 100 BILLION dollar business. It was started by a few average people on a bootstrap budget, and has grown into THE authority site in the "affordable alternative to hotel" travelers space.

Kickstarter, another offbeat idea for creating a community platform for PASSION and purpose based professionals to share their flare with the world, has become the LARGEST source of funding for ordinary people with extraordinary inspired ideas, funding 100s of millions of dollars and counting.

The chances that you or I am going to create the next AIRBNB or Kickstarter? Not great.

But, the chances that you or I can launch a similar style site that is an "authority" in a smaller niche, market or industry that we care about, or have passion for, and that can earn hundreds of thousands of profit, or be valued at 6 or even 7 figures or more in a reasonably short time?

Pretty darn good … Especially if you scale this strategy across multiple markets.

For example?

You can create an entire business that emulates an AIRBNB style model, for under $ 100 … with killer templates, premium plugins and simply follow their blueprint for success. It doesn't have to be real estate, you can create a search engine that matches consumers from the public, with professionals that have something specific to offer and need to be found, in just about any niche under the sun.

You can create a directory site. You can create a local marketplace. You can create a social network in your niche, market or industry of choice, using FREE plugins like Buddypress, and position yourself as the thought leader, authority or go to expert.

Maybe your passion is online business or entrepreneurialism or helping other professionals build BUZZ for their own blogs, brands or business? You can create a job board, a classified site, a local news magazine, a marketing forum, or even a crowd funding community … And literally, build an entire online "agency" with high dollar offers behind it, simply because you ' ll be looked at as the brains behind the scene.

The truth is, this approach takes a little bit more work … And a little bit more effort overall. But believe it or not, it's EASY to do, a whole lot of fun, and a great way to offer genuine value to others while doing what you love for a living!

A Quasar Sheds New Light On The Primeval Universe

Quasars trip the light fantastic in the ancient Universe, beckoning the curious among us with their mesmerizing, mysterious, and brilliant dance among the distant stars. Quasars , or quasi-stellar radio sources , are the extraordinarily luminous active galactic nuclei (AGN) of galaxies far, far away – the accretion disks that surround supermassive black holes hiding in the dark hearts of probably every large galaxy in the Universe– including our own Milky Way. As the glowing gas in the accretion disk spirals downward into the waiting maw of the hungry black hole, an enormous amount of energy is released in the form of electromagnetic radiation – thus creating the bright quasar. In July 2018, a team of astronomers announced their discovery of a remote quasar displaying the most brilliant radio emission ever observed in the ancient Universe, resulting from a jet of extremely fast-moving material that the black hole has sent screaming out into space. These findings will enable astronomers to better probe the well-kept secrets of our Universe's youth, during an important era of transition from what it was then to what it is now.

Dr. Eduardo Banados of the Carnegie Observatories (Pasadena, California) led the team that discovered the brilliant quasar , and this initial discovery was followed up by Dr. Emmanuel Momjian of the National Radio Astronomy Observatory (NRAO) . The new observations enabled the astronomers to see, with unprecedented detail, the brilliant jet fleeing out of the quasar that formed within the first billion years of our 14 billion-year-old Universe's existence. The NRAO is in Charlottesville, Virginia.

Quasars are comprised of supermassive black holes that are millions to billions of times more massive than our Sun. The newly discovered quasar , with the telephone book-sounding name of PSO J352.4034-15.3373 , is one of a rare breed among its dark-hearted kind. These uncommon beasts inhabiting the celestial zoo do not merely swallow the matter they are in the process of consuming, but also shoot out a jet of plasma screeching out at speeds approaching that of light. This relativistic jet of material is extremely bright in the frequencies detected by radio telescopes. Even though quasars were first discovered over half a century ago as a result of their powerful radio emissions, astronomers now know that only approximately 10 percent of them are strong radio emitters.

Brilliant Beacons Inhabiting Spacetime

Q uasars shoot brilliant streams of light into the Cosmos, and this fleeing light is as brilliant as a trillion stars. Indeed, quasars send forth their fabulous, ferocious light into intergalactic space from an area that is smaller than our Solar System. At the time of their discovery, these brilliant beacons were believed to be solitary stellar objects, situated in the dazzling hearts of ancient galaxies in the distant Universe. In astronomy, long ago is the same as far away. The more remote an object is in Space, the more ancient it is in Time. This is because of the expansion of the Universe – hence the term Spacetime. Time is the fourth dimension – it is impossible to locate an object in Space, without also locating it in Time. No known signal can travel faster than light in a vacuum, and the light that makes its incredibly long journey towards our own planet was emitted by remote objects inhabiting the Cosmos very long ago – and so we see them as they were when they first shot their dazzling light out into the space between galaxies.

Today, astrophysicists understand that supermassive black holes , inhabiting the hearts of galaxies, are the true "engines" that power quasars. In spite of their misleading name, black holes are not merely empty space. Indeed, they are really enormous amounts of matter squished into an extremely small region – and they do not come in only one size. Stellar mass black holes are born from the wreckage left behind by very massive stars that have perished in a supernova blast. Massive stars reach the end of their nuclear-fusing "lives" after having burned their necessary supply of fuel. The doomed massive star's core collapses as its outer gaseous layers are shot violently into the space between stars – leaving only a black hole of stellar mass behind as its legacy to the Cosmos.

Supermassive black holes are a somewhat different beast from their smaller stellar-mass kin. This is primarily because of the stupendous mass of these gravitational supermassive monsters. The question that still needs to be answered is how such extremely massive entities came to exist in the first place. There is also evidence that intermediate mass black holes lurk in the Cosmos, and they sport hefty masses that exceed their stellar-mass "cousins", but are nowhere near that of the supermassive beasts that lurk in the dark hearts of large galaxies.

Our own Milky Way Galaxy's supermassive black hole is called Sagittarius A * – Sgr A * , for short (pronounced Saj-A-Star). Sgr A * is not as massive as many others of its kind, and is "only" millions – as opposed to billions – of solar-masses.

Quasars haunt the remote dark hearts of young, and extremely active, galaxies in the ancient Universe – and they hurl into space as much as a thousand times the energy produced by our entire Milky Way. This radiation is emitted across the entire electromagnetic spectrum almost uniformly, extending from the far-infrared to X-rays, displaying a peak in the ultraviolet-optical bands. Some quasars are powerful radio sources, as well as sources of gamma-rays.

It appears that the larger the host galaxy, the more massive its supermassive black hole . For this reason, it is frequently proposed that there must be some mechanism that ties the formation of a host galaxy to that of its resident supermassive heart of darkness– and vice versa. This theory carries important implications for various theories of galactic formation and evolution, and it is an ongoing avenue of research for astrophysicists.

Quasars were first identified during the 1950s as sources of radio-wave emission of unknown physical origin. When quasars were originally detected in photographic images from that early era they resembled dim star-like points of light. More recent high-resolution images of quasars , especially those obtained from the Hubble Space Telescope (HST) , have revealed that quasars are located in the cores of galaxies, and that some galaxies that host quasars are strongly interacting or merging galaxies. As with other types of AGN , the observed properties of a quasar depend on numerous factors including the mass of the resident supermassive black hole , the rate of the accretion of gas, the orientation of the surrounding accretion disk relative to the observer, the degree of veiling obscuration by gas and dust swirling within the host galaxy, and the presence or absence of a relativistic jet .

Quasar activity was more common in the very ancient Universe. Indeed, the peak era of quasar activity in the Universe occurred approximately 10 billion years ago.

The term "quasar" itself was coined by the Chinese-born US astrophysicist Dr. Hong-Yee Chin in May 1964. Chin first used the term quasar in the journal Physics Today to describe certain mysterious astronomical objects.

Between 1917 and 1922, astronomers began to realize, based on the work conducted by Heber Curtis, Ernst Opik, and others, that there are objects in the Universe (nebulae) that are actually remote galaxies like our own Milky Way. However, when radio astronomy began to be used in the 1950s, astronomers spotted, among the galaxies, a small number of unusual objects that displayed properties that could not be explained.

The mysterious objects emitted copious amounts of radiation of numerous frequencies, but no source could be located optically – or (in some cases) only a point-like and very dim object could be seen, and these faint objects resembled remote stars. The spectral lines of these strange objects, which served to identify their constituent chemical elements, were also highly unusual and defied explanation. Some of them changed their luminosity very quickly in the optical range, and even more quickly in the X-ray range. This suggested to astronomers an upper limit on the size of these objects that was no larger than our own Solar System. This implies a high power density, and considerable debate occurred over what these mysterious, remote "star-like" objects could be. They were ultimately described as "quasi-stellar" –meaning "star-like" radio sources – or, alternatively, as "quasi-stellar objects" (QSOs) , a designation that implied their unknown nature, and this eventually became shortened to "quasar".

Most quasars cannot be observed with small telescopes. Although light and other radiation cannot escape the powerful gravitational grasp of a black hole's event horizon , the energy churned out by a quasar is actually generated outside of the black hole . This energy is produced by gravitational stresses and immense friction within the material closest to the black hole, as it orbits and then spirals downward – never to return. The dazzling luminosity of quasars is caused by the accretion disks circling around and feeding the dark-hearted supermassive beast that awaits its dinner – and that can convert between 6% and 32% of the mass of an object into energy. Even though several dozen galaxies in our Milky Way's general neighborhood – as well as our Milky Way itself – do not sport an active center and do not display any activity similar to a quasar , they nevertheless host a quiet supermassive black hole in their hidden dark hearts. For this reason, it is now thought that all large galaxies host a supermassive black hole in their nuclei (center). However, only a small percentage become active and power radiation in this way. It is the activity of these ancient supermassive black holes that are observed as brilliant quasars.

The material that tumbles down fatally into the waiting maw of the supermassive black hole , is unlikely to fall directly in. Instead, it will have some angular momentum around the gravitational beast that will cause the matter to gather together in an accretion disk. Quasars may ignite (or be re-ignited) when a duo of normal galaxies collide and then merge together. When this type of collision occurs, the supermassive black hole can then feast on a fresh new source of matter. Indeed, it has been suggested that a dazzling quasar may be born when the nearby large spiral Andromeda Galaxy collides and merges with our own Milky Way in 3 to 5 billion years – thus creating the great Milkomeda Galaxy that will host a supermassive black hole in its secretive heart. The Milkomeda Galaxy's supermassive black hole will sport the impressive mass of both of the colliding duo's supermassive black holes combined.

More than 200,000 quasars have been discovered so far, most detected by the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) . These quasars have been determined to be located between 600 million and 28.85 billion light-years from Earth (in terms of comoving distance). Because of the vast distances to the most remote quasars , and the finite speed of light, these distant dazzling objects and their ambient space are observed as they were in the ancient Cosmos. The SDSS is a multi-spectral imaging spectroscopic redsift survey using the dedicated 2.5-m wide-angle optical telescope at Apache Point Observatory in New Mexico in the US

Even though quasars are faint when observed from our own planet, they are visible from great distances. This is because they are the most luminous objects known in the Universe.

One particularly nagging question bewilders and bewitches astrophysicists– why do the galaxies in our Milky Way's general neighborhood all seem to host dormant supermassive beasts in their hidden hearts? Our own Sgr A * is just such a slumbering old black hole . The brilliance of its ancient youth has long since passed, and Sgr A * is only from time to time awakened from its nap when a tempting shredded star or cloud of doomed gas travels too close to where it slumbers in the gentle peace of its "golden years. " When this happens, the beast awakens, and devours the infalling banquet with the greed of its long gone flaming youth. For one brief shining moment, the elderly gravitational beast remembers what it once was, and glares with the same fiery fury that it did very long ago when both it and the Universe itself were young.

Indeed, many astrophysicists think that Sgr A * was once a quasar , that sparkled like a brilliant beacon in the ancient Universe.

A Tattle-Tale Relativistic Jet

The light emitted by the newly discovered quasar, PSO J352.4034-15.3373 , has been traveling from its place of origin for almost 13 billion years, and it is only now finally reaching the prying eyes of astronomers on Earth. P352-15 (as it is known, for short) is the first quasar to be observed that displays strong evidence of radio jets within the first billion years of the almost 14 billion-year-old Universe's existence.

"There is a dearth of known strong radio emitters from the Universe's youth and this is the brightest radio quasar at that epoch by an order of magnitude," Dr. Banados explained in a July 9, 2018 Carnegie Science Press Release.

"This is the most-detailed image yet of such a bright galaxy at this great distance," Momjian added in the same Press Release.

The Big Bang started the Universe as a searing-hot cauldron filled with extremely energetic particles that were expanding expanding. As the Universe expanded, it cooled off and coalesced into a neutral hydrogen gas, which left the Universe swathed in darkness. During this Cosmic Dark Ages , there were no luminous sources, until the relentless force of gravity condensed matter that ultimately set fire to the first generation of brilliant baby stars and their host galaxies. Approximately 800 million years after the Big Bang, the energy released by the first galaxies caused the neutral hydrogen that was spread throughout the Universe to get excited. In other words, the neutral hydrogen lost an electron, or became ionized– a state that the gas has remained in since that ancient era.

It is rare to find radio jet-emitting quasars, such as P352-15, from the primordial period just after the Universe's lights switched back on.

Dr. Banados commented to the press on July 9, 2018 that "The jet from this quasar could serve as an important calibration tool to help future projects penetrate the (cosmic) Dark Ages and perhaps reveal how the earliest galaxies came into being."

The new findings are published in two papers appearing in the July 9, 2018 issue of The Astrophysical Journal.

Gravitational Waves Reveal Our Universe's Birth

According to the inflationary Big Bang theory, our Universe was born 13.8 billion years ago when all of Space emerged from an exquisitely small Patch and then – in the tiniest fraction of a second – expanded exponentially to attain macroscopic size. In March 2014, researchers announced their historic discovery that they had at last observed the long-sought "smoking gun" suggesting Inflation had followed closely on the heels of the Big Bang. The Big Bang plus Inflation model is an audacious and common-sense defying theory proposing that the extremely dense and hot neonatal Universe started out smaller than an elementary particle. According to Inflation theory, the Universe experienced such a monumental burst of wild growth during the first tiny fraction of a second of its existence, that all that we know and all that we are, emerged from it. By using a radio telescope at the Earth's South Pole, the US-led team of scientists detected the first evidence of primordial gravitational waves, the ripples in Space that Inflation is thought to have generated almost 14 billion years ago when the Universe first started its expansion at the dawn of Time.

As Dr. Robert P. Kirshner of the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics (CfA), in Cambridge, Massachusetts, has put it: "Weird things might be true things."

The telescope used for this discovery captured an image of the gravitational waves as they continued to ripple through the Cosmos about 380,000 years after its Big Bang birth. Stars did not exist as yet to light up the primordial Universe with their sparkling fires – and matter itself was still chaotically strewn across all of Space in the form of a wild soup of plasma. The snapshot showed the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) radiation – which is the afterglow of the Big Bang itself – that radiated from unimaginably seething white-hot plasma, and then over the passage of billions upon billions of years, cooled to frigid microwave energies, as a result of the expansion of the Universe.

The scientists involved in this "smoking gun" of a historic discovery are with the BICEP2 experiment. About 10 teams of scientists all over the globe have been searching for this signal indicating that Inflation had actually occurred. This signal, called primordial B-modes , are a specific pattern of polarization. As a wavelength of polarized light wanders through Space, it jitters at an angle to its direction of movement. If Inflation had really occurred, it would have sent out gravitational waves rippling through Space and Time – and these waves would have imprinted the B-mode polarization pattern on the CMB.

Our Wonderland

According to the inflationary Big Bang theory, our Universe started out as a tiny Patch smaller than a proton – and then in the tiniest fraction of a second experienced runaway Inflation. That tiny, tiny Patch, far too small for a human being to see, was so extremely small that it was almost, but not exactly, nothing. That little Patch was, in fact, so searing-hot and dense that everything we know sprung from it. Space and Time were born together in the madly expanding fireball of the inflationary Big Bang. The neonatal Universe brimmed and danced with extremely energetic radiation; a seething, turbulent sea of ​​dazzling particles of light (photons). The entire newborn Cosmos sparkled with a blinding brilliance of wonderful light. What we now observe almost 14 billion years later is the greatly expanded and expanding, fading aftermath of that primordial bursting of neonatal brilliance. And now we watch helplessly from our obscure little rocky blue world, as the flames of Universal formation fade and cool, and our Cosmos expands darkly into Eternity – like the eerie grin of the Cheshire Cat in a nightmare of a Wonderland.

Almost 14 billion years ago, all of Spacetime sprung into existence from a tiny ancient soup of densely packed, searing-hot particles. Spacetime has been relentlessly expanding from this initial brilliant state, and cooling off, ever since. All of the galaxies are rushing away from one another and away from our own large barred-spiral Galaxy, the star-blasted Milky Way. But it is a mistake to imagine that our Universe has a center. Rather, everything is traveling away from everything else, carried by the now-accelerating expansion of Spacetime. The expansion of the Universe is frequently compared to a rising loaf of leavening raisin bread. The expanding dough rises, carrying the raisins along with it for the ride. The raisins become increasingly more widely separated from each other due to the expanding dough.

On the largest scales, the Cosmos appears to be the same wherever we observe it. The Big Bang plus Inflation model has, for decades, been the strongest theory explaining this strange observation, which suggests that in the earliest instant of our Universe's history, everything was in contact with everything else. This tantalizingly hints that the primordial Universe must have been very, very small, indeed.

The Big Bang theory alone does explain some of the observed features of the Universe. The major suggestions of the Big Bang model – the unimaginably dense and searing-hot condition of the primordial Cosmos, the birth of galactic structures, the formation of helium, and the expansion of Spacetime itself – are all derived from a large number of observations independent of any cosmological model.

Because the distance between galaxy clusters is increasing today, the Big Bang model suggests that everything was considerably closer together in the remote past. This idea has been diligently worked out all the way back to that ancient time when the Universe was extremely hot, dense, and possibly even smaller than a proton!

However, in spite of its many successes, the Big Bang model by itself is lacking. A theory like Inflation is very badly needed for two very good reasons. The first is called the horizon problem – the weird observation that the Universe looks the same on opposite sides of the sky (opposite horizons) . This very troubling mystery exists because there has not been sufficient time since the birth of our Cosmos almost 14 billion years ago for light, or any other signal, to make the long journey all the way across the entire Universe and back again. So, how could the opposite sides of the horizon possibly know how to look identical? That is the question. The second problem with the Big Bang theory is the flatness problem – the observation that our Cosmos resides dangerously well-balanced at exactly the dividing line between eternal expansion and eventual re-collapse back to its original tiny, hot, dense condition.

Dr. Alan Guth of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) in Cambridge, Massachusetts, first proposed the Inflation model in 1980. Guth commented on the new observations in the March 17, 2014 Nature News, saying that "This is a totally new, independent piece of cosmological evidence that the inflationary picture fits together."

Basically, Dr. Guth's idea suggests that the Universe expanded at an exponential rate for a few tens of trillionths of trillionths of trillionths of seconds after the Big Bang – expanding like a balloon or bubble from subatomic to football size. Inflation solves some long-perplexing cosmic problems, such as the horizon problem and the flatness problem.

Although the theory of Inflation has proved to be consistent with all cosmological data gathered so far, conclusive evidence for it has been missing.

The "Smoking Gun"

"This is not just a home run, it is a grand slam. It is the smoking gun for inflation," he said. Mark Kamionkowski to the press on March 17, 2014. Kamionkowski is a physicist at Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore, Maryland.

Scientific cosmologists knew that Inflation would leave a distinctive fingerprint – that this very brief but violent episode of exponential expansion would have generated gravitational waves, which stretch Space in one direction while squeezing it in another. Although these very ancient waves, or ripples, would still be propagating across the Cosmos, by now they would be much too weak to observe directly. However, they would have left their distinctive tattle-tale signature on the CMB, because they would have polarized the ancient radiation in a vortex-like, curling pattern – the B mode, sometimes called the Cosmic Curl .

In 2013, a different telescope located in Antarctica – the South Pole Telescope (SPT) , was the first observatory to spot a Cosmic Curl in the CMB radiation from so very long ago and far away. That cosmic fingerprint, however, was over angular scales of less than one degree – which is approximately twice the size of Earth's Moon in the sky. It was therefore attributed to the way foreground galaxies curve the Space through which the CMB makes its long and treacherous journey. But the signal emanating from the primordial gravitational waves is thought to peak at angular scales somewhere between one and five degrees.

That is precisely what Dr. John Kovac of CfA and his team have detected – using the BICEP2 instrument situated mere meters away from its competitor, the SPT.

In order to detect the elusive – and very small– B mode , the CMB needs to be measured with a precision of one ten-millionth of a Kelvin in order to separate that primordial effect from other possible sources as, for example, galactic dust.

"The key question is whether there could be a foreground that masquerades like this signal," Daniel Eisenstein explained in the March 17, 2014 Nature News. Dr. Eisenstein is an astrophysicst at the CfA. However, the team of scientists has almost entirely ruled out that possibility, he added. In the first place, the astrophysicists were very careful to aim BICEP2 at what is called the Southern Hole , which is a patch of sky that is known to carry only small quantities of such emissions. BICEP2 is an array of 512 superconducting microwave detectors. The team of scientists also compared their data with data taken by the previous experiment, BICEP1 , and showed that a dust-generated signal would have displayed a differing spectrum and color from what they found.

In addition, data taken with a more sensitive and newer polarization experiment, called the Keck array , revealed the same identical characteristics. The team finished installing the Keck array at the South Pole in 2012, and it will continue to operate for another two years.

"To see this same signal emerge from two other, different telescopes was for us very convincing," Kovac told the press on March 17, 2014.

Until now, astronomers have only had one lone line of evidence to use to investigate whether Inflation really occurred – the CMB's pattern of temperature variations which do, in fact, support this version of Inflation theory.

But having the B modes available brings this investigation up to a whole new level.

"The details have to be worked out, but from what I know it's highly likely this is what we've been waiting for. This is the discovery of Inflationary gravitational waves," commented Dr. John Carlstrom in the March 17, 2014 Nature News. Dr. Carlstrom is an astronomer of the University of Chicago, Illinois, who is the lead researcher on the SPT.

The Inflation occurred in the realm of quantum physics, and observing gravitational waves generated from that remote and weird epoch provides the "first-ever experimental evidence for quantum gravity," commented Dr. Max Tegmark in the same issue of Nature News. Dr. Tegmark is a cosmologist at MIT. In other words, it reveals that the force of gravity is at the heart of the weird world of the quantum –just like the other three known forces of Nature: the strong nuclear force, the weak nuclear force, and electromagnetism.

Physicists depend on two separate theories to explain the Cosmos. The first is Einstein's General Relativity , which applies to large macroscopic objects such as galaxies and stars. The second is quantum mechanics which explains things very well on the subatomic level.

Together, the two models cover the four known forces– General Relativity explains gravity, while quantum mechanics deals with the other three. Alas, the two theories are inherently incompatible, breaking down in extreme domains such as those found within the secretive hearts of black holes or in the instants just after the Big Bang. Therefore, physicists are searching for a single framework that can encompass all four known fundamental forces and works at all levels in all domains. Physicists call this all-encompassing theory The Theory of Everything (TOE).

Dr. Abraham (Avi) Loeb of CfA noted in the March 21, 2014 Space.com that the new discovery "will give additional motivation, and also additional constraints, on models of Inflation and, perhaps, a Theory of Everything. it will take time. " Dr. Loeb was not a part of the discovery team.

The discovery team reported their findings on March 17, 2014 at a press conference at the CfA– held after they had described their results to other scientists in a more technical discussion.

The new results do not explain what triggered the Inflation – only that it happened! Neither do the new results answer the haunting question of whether Inflation is eternal, setting into motion an endless sea of ​​big bangs and the eternal formation of pocket universes. This Cosmological landscape is usually referred to as the Multiverse. However, it is difficult to tune Inflation in such a way that an endless sea of ​​pocket universes do not bubble into existence, Dr. Guth pointed out to the press on March 17, 2014.

"This discovery probes new physics, and that's why it's of such fundamental importance, to physics as well as Cosmology. Since we can't really do the experiments in the laboratory, we better rely on the Universe to give us some clues about what happens at these energy scales, "Dr. Loeb told the press.

A Worldventures Review – The Next Billion Dollar MLM?

WorldVentures…A Brief Background

WorldVentures and its wholly owned travel agency Rovia, is an MLM Company that has very effectively combined the power of the internet with the strength of Network Marketing or MLM, a combination which has positioned WorldVentures as a potential giant in the Travel Industry.

WorldVentures began business in December, 2005, earning just over $50 million in its first full year (2006) of business and generating sales of just under $150 Million in only its third year (2008)!

Founded by Network Marketing and travel industry veterans Wayne Nugent, Mike Azcue, Robert Oblon and Dan Stammen, the company is privately owned and operated, debt-free and headquartered in Plano, TX (Dallas).

The Next Expedia, Priceline, Travelocity or Orbitz?

According to the New York Times, Travelocity, one of the the “big four” of online travel sites and another Texas-based company, once ruled the online travel business “…before it was trounced by Expedia!”

Expedia is a former Microsoft sideline company that was spun-off as a multi-billion dollar company in 1995 and is now the world’s largest online travel agency and the 800 lb guerrilla in the room with revenues in excess of $850 million! It is closely followed by Priceline with $732 million and Orbitz, a distant 3rd with revenues of $187 million.

By Comparison

WorldVentures has an excellent chance of not only becoming a billion dollar online travel company but may very well overtake a couple of the ” big four” aforementioned travel companies placing WV among the biggest of the biggest!

I like WV’s leadership team, their expertise and shared vision as to where they see their company going in the next few years! Combine that with WV’s proprietary search technology, which is second-to-none in the travel industry, and you surely have a winning combination!

Marketing Your Business to Over One Billion People

As a business owner, you’ll agree that advertising and promoting your business is one of the hardest tasks you’ll have to undertake. Once the prospect has called, emailed, or visited your office, half the battle has been won. The question is: “What is the best way to market and promote my business?”

In 2006 I started my first business, beeconnected I.T. Solutions – An I.T. Consultancy Company based in Brisbane Australia providing I.T. support to small and medium businesses. I started providing support to the consumer sector through print advertising in several Brisbane and local newspapers. Granted, this worked well and opened doors to business clients, but it was not the long term answer. Having said that, managing to get my foot in the door of those same business clients did provide me with a light bulb moment. Mouse Pads or Mouse Mats!

Forrester Research concluded that by the end of 2008 the number of computers would exceed one billion and that by 2015 that number would double! Every business I walked into either didn’t have one or it looked like it had been there since Noah built the ark. Nevertheless, as old, tired, and dirty as it may have been, it was still there. How could I miss this 24/7 promotional tool? Computers were my business for god sake!

I started researching various manufacturers and soon discovered that depending on where you looked, a mouse pad could be a very expensive entity. The problem was the middle man promotional companies. They couldn’t possibly make all of the products they sold, so who did? The quest was on to go straight to the source and cut out the middle man. My travels eventually took me offshore to China and as I soon discovered, I was in the right place.

There are a number of printing firms in China which specialise in mouse pad printing, but I managed to unearth the pros, RGB Solutions and their aptly named website Mouse Pads China. These guys have printed for companies like Coke, Pepsi, Nokia and Verizon so I figured I must have been onto a winning idea. Mouse Pads China were able to answer all of my questions (in English might I mention), regarding the different surface and backing types, as well as various methods of printing. They also helped me with the design of my promotional mouse pad and had it delivered by DHL within a matter of weeks.

By the time they had arrived, I’d compiled a list of local businesses I wanted to target and put together a direct mail out campaign which would include my promotional mouse pad. The concept was simple, I wanted to give my prospective new client something to remember me by, something that wouldn’t go from the envelope to the bin in three seconds flat but remain on their desk for all eternity it seems.

Now I’ll be honest, initially the response was slow. But after a few weeks, the phone started ringing with people saying “I’ve got your promotional mouse pad here and I thought I’d call”. Before I knew it, I was fast running out of my initial order of 500 pads and was placing an order for four times that! That was back in late 2007 and early 2008.

I’ll let you know when my phone stop ringing because of those promotional mouse pads.

Are You Picking The Right Signal?

Do you know the working principle of radio that we use in daily life? I guess you know. Still, let me tell you that each station sends some signals of some specific frequency. And the receiver in your radio receives them. There are signals of all sorts roaming around. The frequency, to which your receiver is tuned, is received by the receiver. I think we all know that.

Now let's imagine all the humans on earth are receivers – that radio. And all the events are those stations – signal. Being a receiver, a variety of signal roams around you. Isn't it? Now, it's up to you to which frequency you tune yourself. Right? And accordingly, you can enjoy all those signals. This may seem a bit hypothetical. But don't you think it's a very practical way of thinking?

Though it seems simple – I mean you are a radio and all the events are stations. That simple … But is it so? Don't you think there's a lot more to this radio-station relationship? Can't we change our life just by tuning to the proper frequency as we do so in the case of real radios? What I'm going to discuss is much crucial to your life.

Each day a lot of things happen to us. You may get promoted in your job, your children may get good grades in school, your spouse may be happy with you, your health may not be that good, your friends may betray you. So on and so forth. Our daily events decide our lifestyle. Sometimes we are happy about them, sometimes sad. But the thing is that you only consider those events which happen to you or to persons close to you. Isn't it? But in a day, within 24 hours, billions of things happen to billions of people around the globe. Do you know about them? If in a day, you have bought a new car, may be that day, someone might have lost their loved ones. Are you concerned about them? No. Right? But still those events happened without your knowledge. You like it or not, but a billion things happen in a minute without your knowledge. It's only that you know about those events which happen to you or to people you know. But you're not concerned about other events. And you needn't be.

In this world a lot of such events, such signals roam around. We all tune in some particular frequencies. And that's why we all receive different frequencies. Everyone's life is different. Some tune into the optimism mode. Those are the guys who only receive signals that are productive. Meaning to say, they only respond to events that are productive for them. And discard other non-productive events. Yet, some people tune into the negative mode. These are the guys who always lament. They can't see positivity behind anything. In reality; both good and bad, positive and negative, productive and worthless events keep happening. Sometimes with you. Sometimes with others. But it's up to you to which frequency you tune your receiver. And it's a matter of experience and inspiration that decide to which frequency you tune into.

Though all good and bad keep happening, it's nothing to worry about, because as I told you, there're billions of events that keep happening that you don't even know. Then why can't you ignore those negative events that happen to you? Can't you tune in to a positive frequency? It may be funnier to consider yourself a radio and the events the stations. But isn't that a powerful way of representing our relation with events of our life? Only when you respond, an event takes its form. You ignore it, it's simply nothing.

Let's say in your workplace, a colleague of yours mocked you for something or your boss is dissatisfied with you. Now if you give importance to that event, it keeps on dominating your mind and with time it'll turn to a scar. May be with time, you feel yourself inferior to your colleagues and may be that your productivity goes down. Now, if instead you ignore those events, you can focus on other productive stuffs and maybe someday those colleagues or your boss appreciates you. Everything depends upon your tuning capacity.

Sharing my personal experience, I had been suffering from a bit of anxiety disorder since my childhood. It was not serious. But still, every time, I'm asked to do something new, I get anxious. One day our science teacher asked us for a lecture presentation in the class. He asked us to prepare a topic and we had to explain that to our classmates. As I just heard him saying that, it gave me a faster heartbeat. I mean I was dead. Still, I decided to do that and prepared a lecture on 'Gravitational Force.' It was a page long. I had to memorize that and explain to my classmates. I couldn't carry that paper. I memorized and next day went to the class. Believe me from the very first class, I got so anxious that I couldn't concentrate well.

And then came the science class. My roll number was in the middle (alphabetical order). So I could relax for some time. As my name was approaching, my heart started throbbing faster. And then he called out my name. I was dead in the water. Still with great hope and confidence I went to the teacher and started … In the middle of my lecture, I got so nervous that my hands started shivering holding the pencil. And then, just in the middle, I stopped and said – 'Thank you' and went to my seat. It was a bad lecture. First, I was not explaining it well and second I stopped in the middle. Now let me tell you the reality. In that class of some 40 students, I had studied astrophysics and cosmology books like no one else. I knew about gravitational force the best. I had even read some academic books on General Relativity. But just because, I was anxious I did terribly bad. That teacher knew me and later suggested me to work on my speaking skills.

But it had nothing to do with my speaking skills. It had to do with my capacity to tune in to positive signals. Even before the lecture presentation, I was so afraid. I had been thinking about all possible bad things that could have happened to me. If you also do that, you can never perform well. That character also made me average in math in the beginning because I was afraid of making mistakes. I was picking all the wrong signals.

Though with time, I improved and today I can boast of my math to a lot extent. I've not given any public speech yet, still I'm confident enough to do so. Things improved just because I started picking the right signals. In any sphere of life, it's very important that you pick the right signal. Only then, you can be successful. There are criticisms, discouragements, trolls, fears in this world. Everyone realizes that. But for you to be audacious, you need to start discarding those signals and instead pick signals that are lifting your life for good.

So again, I'm asking you – 'Are you picking the right signal?'

How to Spot Evil in People’s Eyes

An ordinary camera and a good Reiki Therapist or Spiritual Healer may save you years of grief being trapped with the wrong person. They say that the eyes are the windows to the soul. That may be true if you have a glass eye. Jesus loved to talk about the “blind guides” of his day. Yesterday all of my troubles seemed so far away but today they have returned, even though I have learned how to spot evil in people’s eyes. What good does it do? Does it make the person less evil? Are evil people likely to take your suggestion and go for an exorcism or Reiki or a spiritual healing? No, evil people think that they are perfect. They think that you are wrong and they are right. This is one of the many lies that they tell themselves and others endlessly. The good news is that if you learn to spot evil in people’s eyes then you can stay away from them; unless you want to be with them because you are masochistic – you love the pain.

Life seems to be a roller coaster of pain at the bottom and ecstasy at the top, with general malaise being the most common condition. Perhaps Earth is just a roller coaster built by a video gamer billions of years advanced in time. Did you ever wonder how prophets can tell the future? Time must be curved like an infinity symbol lying on its side. The future must have already happened for someone to know what it is. There are billions of Catholics, Protestants, Muslims, Jews, Hindus, Buddhists and Atheists. By definition billions of people have to be wrong. According to each religion the members of their group are angels and everyone else is evil. How could billions of people fall for such baloney? The answer is that the world is a lunatic asylum for the criminally insane. How else could you explain the Pope’s ball gown and a billion people thinking that they need his approval to get into heaven?

Here is how you spot evil in a person’s eyes. This is barring some genetic abnormality, like a clubbed foot. Congratulations to Phil Mickelson. He proved that it doesn’t matter whether you use a Titleist or a Callaway driver, you can still win a green jacket.

Let’s say that you want to know if the person you are in a relationship is evil. There are several key indicators. If they chop you up into tiny little pieces and then eat you this is not a good sign. Before this happens, find a picture of them taken face on with them looking right into the camera. Start by looking at their left eye. Then look at their right eye. In the case of the nice person, both eyes are in the center of the eyeball and focusing right on you. In the case of the not so nice person one eye may be a bit off center and looking out to the side. In the case of the truly evil person both eyes are in the far corner of the eye looking sideways. This is called snake eyes.

When your partner has snake eyes there are always other indicators to go along with it. M.Scott Peck M.D. is a psychiatrist who sold 5 million copies of “The Road Less Traveled.” It is a story about a webmaster who didn’t care about quality inbound one way links. He also wrote “People of the Lie” and “Glimpses of the Devil.” In Glimpses of the Devil he performed two exorcisms each lasting 5 days and he videotaped them in their entirety. The camera caught the second victim shape shifting into a snake faced woman. Once at a Native Indian circle gathering 17 people all saw the 18th person in the circle shape shift into a mosquito. Normally evil people don’t shape shift into mosquitoes. How many toes does a mosquito have? Mosquitoes are getting a bad wrap these days for spreading west nile virus and malaria, as if they can help it.

Evil people lie constantly and endlessly. Their lies and threats are obvious baloney, but they are designed to confuse you and make you doubt yourself so that you will give them power over you. This is an effective tool and has led to numerous of the most evil human beings ever grabbing immense political power over millions of willing followers. Adolf Hitler is an excellent example.

Normally humans have built in radar against evil people. When you are in the presence of an evil person you will get a shaky creepy feeling and want to run for your life. When you are in the presence of an angel person you will feel a warm glow. If your spouse is filled with evil spirits, then suggest that you both go for Reiki, or Spiritual Healing. Some practitioners can even do miraculous distance healing from anywhere on Earth with only the patient’s first name and date of birth. There is no need to be a believer. Gravity will hold you down on a ball flying through space constantly and rotating constantly thousands of miles per hour, no matter what name you give to it and no matter whether you believe in it or not. If you happen to see your spouse shape shift into a foaming at the mouth growling vicious wolf it may be time to take him to the veterinarian for his annual rabies shot, no matter what religion he is. Take my penicillin, please.

Personal Development Is A Multi-Billion-Dollar Industry

Personal development – also commonly called self-improvement – is a booming industry! And Internet-based personal development – also commonly called e-learning – is now becoming increasingly popular.

According to market research and statistics, it is a 64 billion dollar industry worldwide. In the US alone, an estimated 9.6 billion dollars is invested in personal development in 2005 in the form of:

– books

– motivational speakers

– personal coaching

– weight loss programs

– audio tapes

– stress management programs

It is also projected that this industry will grow at the rate of 11.4 percent yearly and reach 13.9 billion dollars in 2010.

People are now turning to gurus for help in various areas as above. For example, Robert Kiyosaki’s ‘Rich Dad, Poor Dad’ had been on the New York Times bestseller list for several years in a row and sold 20 million copies!

Likewise, Stephen R. Covey’s ‘The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People’ sold more than 15 million copies in 38 languages around the world!

In a similar manner, many people are spending thousands of dollars attending personal development seminars every year conducted by well-known industry gurus like Tony Robbins, Zig Ziglar, Jim Rohn, T. Harv Eker and others.

Along with this mega trend, Internet-based personal development websites, typically membership sites, are becoming more popular as people can learn through audio and visual programs from the comfort of their homes. One well-known example is Success University, which became the No. 1 personal development website on the Internet, within months of launching three years ago.

Essentially, people are beginning to realize that a life time is too short for one to learn from their mistakes and it is actually smarter and faster to learn from successful people who have done what you want to achieve through reading their books, listening to their tapes and watching their DVDs, attending their live seminars or even engaging them as coaches or mentors.

Another huge plus (depending on your location) is that recycling cell phones provides tax benefits – and as a business person you should take advantage of every tax break that you can.

The Future – Why You May Get PAID For This By The Government?

Recycling cell phones has a massive future. Cell phones are potentially very destructive for the environment. They should not end up in dump sites and the government is very aware of this – in fact there is new legislation being introduced all the time and electronics that are to be scrapped may incur a disposal surcharge. In short, you MAY be able to get paid for your recycling efforts in the future. You should keep ahead of new legislation as and when it happens so that you are best placed to take advantage of this if it happens. Contact your local council and inquire about any current or coming schemes where you could get rewarded for this business.
