Intellectual Property Review, by Guest Blogger Anthony M. Verna III
One issue I see when a business takes itself from the idea stage to doing business in the real world is a lack of intellectual property review.
This can be seen in either taking out a Facebook page or a domain name in either the business name or a proposed product name. While this is a good idea, to just do it without understanding possible ramifications in either intellectual property or advertising law is a problem.

A Runner’s Diary: Running in the Rain with NY Road Runners
My daughter and I joined a running club through New York Road Runners. Every Thursday night, we trek into the city, join a group of twenty-five people, and run around Central Park.
This week, my daughter and I were driving into New York City and noticed that the thermometer read that it was 100 degrees. We looked at each other as if we were both crazy.
“How are we going to run in this heat?” my daughter asked me.

Tap into Your Intuition for Success by Guest Blogger Eileen Lichtenstein, MS Ed
We all find ourselves at times walking the edge between this and that, yes and no. What to do? Which way to go…. When you make a decision and you have a sense of “relief” you know it’s a right choice. It’s about going downstream, letting go of the paddles and letting the current take you. It’s about riding the waves, not going against the tide. Use your senses to detect signs: Intuitive “hits” come in many forms- from sensory images, physical feelings and auditory and olfactory clues. When you are open to receiving and noticing “signs”, it becomes progressively easier to trust your intuition. The optimal receptive “state” has being “grounded” for a prerequisite. For instant grounding, connect with nature: take a walk, sit at the ocean meditate, listen to the birds, gaze at a flower. Now is the perfect season to jumpstart your intuition. Or listen to a guided meditation, which you may listen to on the Moving Meditation Fitness audio program: www.balanceandpower.com/movingmeditation.php. The following tips may assist you in accessing your intuition and are most effective when practiced on a daily basis:

A Runner’s Diary: Running with My Daughter
I signed up for the New York Road Runner’s weekly running club in New York City. I asked my daughter if she would like to join me. She was excited to get into running so she decided to sign up too. After reviewing the criteria, we decided to join the class on Thursday afternoons. The class goal is to get you to run 30 minutes without walking.
“Do you think this class will be not advanced enough for you?” my daughter asked me. “You’re probably the only one who ran a half marathon in the class.”
