Building a company website is one of the most important parts of creating a successful business. It doesn’t make a difference if your company is based on the internet or a traditional brick-and-mortar business, an online presence is a requirement to reach and expand your customer base. But designing a website can be time consuming and expensive. Web designers are difficult to work with, and even though you’re paying them, they’re really only working for themselves. There are cheaper ways to establish your company online, and Wix.com stands out amongst them.
Wix.com offers free HTML5 and Flash website design that you can do on your own, without having to pay for a pricey web designer. With unlimited space for as many pages as you want, customized looks, photo galleries, animations, and blog platform capabilities, social networking buttons, Wix has everything a business of any size needs to make an impact online. You get full control over what information fills in the blanks, and you don’t have to know a thing about HTML to make this work. The way your website looks says a lot about your company. Wix does that, and it does it for free.
You need your website to look professional, and to communicate your brand to the world. Wix lets you create a website that does all that and won’t make you go bankrupt. All of the 280 templates available on Wix are professional grade web design without the pricey web designer. Another thing that makes Wix the most affordable option in creating a website is that you don’t have to pay for a separate web host—every page created on Wix is hosted on Wix, free of charge.
The internet is the marketplace of ideas: your company needs to share what you think. If you think just because you don’t sell a product online you don’t need a website you’re dead wrong. Thinking like that is the equivalent of not advertising because you can’t buy your product from an ad, or not having a business card because people can always look up your number in the phone book—it doesn’t make sense.  No matter what kind of business you have, if you want to reach an audience you want to have a website that speaks to people. Wix lets you do that as quickly and easily as possible for free.


If you have a bigger budget, Wix has more options than just the free web sites design.

Image from Facebook (No to KXL rally)Dozens of Native Americans have descended on Washington DC on the first weekend of 2015 to stage a protest in front of the White House against the Keystone XL oil sands pipeline, which they call a disastrous “death warrant” to the environment and people.
The “No to KXL rally”, organized by Native American leaders and environmental groups, paraded in the Lafayette Square against the pipeline that would channel oil from the Canadian tar sands through to the US to refineries in Texas.

freshwater aquifer, and puts the lives of all people who live along its path in serious danger,” Native Americans said in a statement.
Calling the construction a “death warrant to our environment and to the people,” dozens gathered on Saturday in an effort to make their voices heard.

The movement fears that the Republican dominated Congress, which reconvened on Saturday, will rapidly bring KXL bill up for a vote and send it to the president’s desk for approval.

However, many still question whether the president will veto the bill, sending it back to the Senate to get 2/3 approval, or 67 votes to overcome that barrier.
Next week, the South Dakota Public Utilities Commission is expected to address the possible re-approval of the portion of the Keystone XL pipeline that would run through the state, Associated Press reports. The opponents of the project are planning protests in three SD cities – in Rapid City and Sioux Falls on Monday and in Pierre on Tuesday.

The project would transport 830,000 barrels of oil per day from the tar sands of Alberta, Canada down to Nebraska. Over the last decade, oil companies have started extracting oil from Alberta’s tar sands, but the gooey mix of sand, clay and oil is difficult to ship to refineries to turn it into usable fuel. The pipeline would help by offering a connection to refineries in Texas. Labor unions support the project because it would bring 42,000 jobs over its two-year construction period, with just 35 permanent jobs.

Environmental groups meanwhile say producing oil from Canada’s tar sands is energy-intensive and will add 17 percent more carbon dioxide than regular oil production over the project's life-cycle, exacerbating global warming. Opponents are also concerned that the pipeline will put nearby communities at risk of oil spills and contaminations of water supplies.

Microsoft will unveil a browser not named Internet Explorer (IE) alongside Windows 10, according to an online report.
Long-time Microsoft watcher and ZDNet blogger Mary Jo Foley cited unnamed sources on Monday to say that the browser would be separate from the existing IE, would sport a minimalist user interface (UI), and would support extensions, sometimes called add-ons, much like Google's Chrome and Mozilla's Firefox.
Separately, Neowin claimed that Microsoft has forked its Trident browser rendering engine to create a more lightweight version that would be called when IE encounters a modern site, one that doesn't require support for older IE standards. In Neowin's scenario, there would not be two different browser UIs; the use of the streamlined Trident engine -- or the existing, backwards-compatible version -- would be automatic and invisible to the user of what the publication thought would be eventually dubbed IE12.
Meanwhile, Foley said that the new browser -- code named "Spartan" -- will be included with Windows 10, perhaps as the default, but will also be accompanied by a refreshed IE11. The latter will be offered for those who need backwards compatibility with older websites and more importantly, older Web apps.
A name other than IE for the new browser would not be a surprise: In August Microsoft hinted that it was thinking of just that. "The discussion I recall seeing was a very recent one [just a few weeks ago]. Who knows what the future holds?" teased Jonathan Sampson of Microsoft in a Reddit "Ask Me Anything" online discussion, while answering a question about a name change to distance the browser from lingering negative perceptions.
In the end, it may not matter whether Microsoft forks the browser into two separate applications or just forks the Trident engine. The result would be the same: One browser/engine that goes forward, another browser/engine that remains static as an option primarily for businesses, the customers who most require compatibility with older sites -- mainly their own intranet domains -- and older Web apps used by their employees.
Microsoft's strategy? To have a fresh start on browsers, and leave the cumbersome legacy support required of IE behind. The browser/engine of the future would be aggressively updated -- as will all of Windows -- while the browser/engine of the past would be maintained but not significantly enhanced.
If that's the idea, Microsoft's abrupt announcement in August that it was forcing users to upgrade to IE11 makes more sense in hindsight. Then, Microsoft told customers that after Jan. 12, 2016, only IE11 would be supported with security updates on Windows 7 and Windows 8.1.
Pushing users toward IE11 could thus be seen as the first announced step -- necessary in 2014 to give customers, particularly conservative corporations, time to make the move -- in a broader plan to deemphasize that version as Microsoft prepared to unveil and aggressively promote a new browser or at least a new browser engine.
According to analytics vendor Net Applications, IE11 accounted for 43% of all versions of IE run in November, making it the most-used edition.
By consolidating users on IE11, Microsoft not only reduces its own support costs -- fewer versions of IE to support -- but prepares customers for a future where only IE11 boasts the kind of backward compatibility necessary for enterprises.
Other promises Microsoft made in August back that speculation, as it pledged that the legacy support tool introduced in April, "Enterprise Mode for Internet Explorer 11," would be maintained, improved and supported on Windows 7 through its retirement date of January 14, 2020. By continuing to maintain Enterprise Mode for IE11, Microsoft would be able to tell companies to standardize on that browser if they needed to support legacy websites and apps. Others would be able to move to the new browser -- if Foley is correct -- or use the new lighter-weight Trident engine, assuming Neowin is more on the mark.
A brand new browser, however, would give Microsoft an advantage over offering two rendering engines within one named IE.
Historically, Microsoft has supported a version of IE until the end of support for the edition of Windows it ran on. Although that policy is now in tatters because of the January 2016 deadline -- IE10's support on Windows 7 was chopped by seven years with that decision -- a new, separate browser as Foley outlined would let Microsoft make even more radical moves.
Other browsers, including Chrome and Firefox, are patched only in their latest versions. Because Google and Mozilla update their browsers every six to eight weeks, users must keep pace or risk running a vulnerable application.
Microsoft may want to follow in their footsteps: In fact, the FAQ dedicated to the January 2016 deadline noted rivals' practices as a reason for those changes. "Focusing support on the latest version of Internet Explorer for a supported Windows operating system is in line with industry standards," the FAQ read (emphasis added).
A newly-named browser would allow Microsoft to change its support policy for that application to match Chrome's and Firefox's. In other words, if Microsoft releases a browser named "Spartan," it might tell customers that they need to run the latest update to receive patches, then update that browser every few weeks. (In 2014, Microsoft patched IE every month.)
For those unable to keep up, Microsoft could point them toward IE11 and its Enterprise Mode, which would presumably be provided with patches as usual. Customers would not need to be running only the latest IE11 update to receive more fixes.
That kind of browser split -- Spartan (or whatever name it's eventually given) on one hand, IE11 on the other -- would match how Microsoft will handle Windows 10: Consumers will receive automatic OS updates, probably monthly, in lieu of occasional upgrades, while businesses will be able to opt for one of two slower tempos.
More information about Microsoft's Jan. 12, 2016, deadline for upgrading to the newest browser for each version of Windows can be found on the company's website.
Microsoft has scheduled a press and analyst event for Jan. 21 in Redmond, where it will unveil the next iteration of the Windows 10 preview. That version will focus on consumer features, and may include the new browser or rendering engine.

Teresa Giudice Daughter Reality Show

Gia will keep the Giudice name alive by filming her own reality show while her mom serves jail time. Teresa ‘knows viewers will tune in’ and is obsessed with making it big — but is she also exploiting her daughters? Here’s what we know!

Gia Giudice, 13, will take the reigns while mom Teresa Giudice, 45, spends 15 months behind bars. Teresa has been nothing but supportive of Gia’s music career with girl group 3KT, so it’s no wonder she thinks a reality TV show of the girls would “get great ratings.” But is she using it to help herself, too?

Teresa has seen star power in her daughter for a long time, and pushed Gia into show business from a young age, a source close to the Giudice’s tells HollywoodLife.com EXCLUSIVELY.
“Teresa thinks the show would get great ratings. She’s really confident once the networks see some of the footage there will be a bidding war for the rights. She’s praying that the show gets picked up and is a huge success by the time she gets out of prison,” our source says.

Looking for something to take your mind off the festive excess? How about Salma Hayek blowing away everything that moves in a bloody new trailer for upcoming action flick EVERLY? If that doesn’t defrost your turkey nothing will. Of course it might be a bit too progressive for the industry to have Hayek as a gun toting career woman, so here she plays a prostitute forced to go on the offensive when assassins threaten her attempts at a new life. Check out the result below if you like your mayhem served with an extra helping of whup-ass…



Hayek’s action credentials are already pretty solid due to her involvement with Robert Rodriguez’s MEXICO TRILOGY, which began with EL MARIACHI. She’s seen as the female contingent of the over-40s movement headed towards action movies, typified by Liam Neeson in the TAKEN franchise. Directed by Joe Lynch and reportedly inspired by DIE HARD and Asian skull cracking fests, EVERLY metes it out at the box office in February via Dimension Films.
