Gratitude unlocks the fullness of life. It turns what we have into enough, and more. It turns denial into acceptance, chaos to order, confusion to clarity. It can turn a meal into a feast, a house into a home, a stranger into a friend. Gratitude makes sense of our past, brings peace for today and creates a vision for tomorrow. ~Melody BeattieNovember 28th,2013

A message from the Editor,Founder and President of csaccac Inc;The following Editor Note is an account of events past during the month of November: "It's mid week of November and I havent written one thought or commented on the events in the previous weeks. Thanksgiving is only two weeks away from the day. An like other uncharted chats,I ve got an idea of the stuff I want to chat about but something keeps me from peeling the layers and revealing my true thoughts. Big on tradition,I couldnt think of a better time than Thanksgiving to give thanks,to be thankful,to be grateful,and to count all blessings big and small.Somewhat odd,a bit unusual and out of the ordinary__,having not written one word,one thought,or comment kept me in a place of Gratitude."---January 4th,2013twice the Luv,I am estatic you found your way back to this web page. As you know_ then again_if you dont know,I love and value each of you as readers,especially_our members. Without a question,I really enjoy the chats with each of you_as you might of surveyed,I been holding these informal chats inside the Editor Note for about four years. From the first chat, I looked forward to each of your responses each month. Of course-,the month of November isnt any different from other months when it comes to taking time out to share the stuff that matters to you as well as consumers and shoppers. Eventhough,I hit an impasse in the month of November thus causing this Editor Note to be extremely off schedule, I didnt want the impasse to block the message which I felt to be most important. To briefly state two of the messages I wanted convey in this Editor Note focus on choices __the end conclusion that" not making a choice is making a choice" and giving thanks. At this point,Im going to slow it down a bit, right here_ I want you to know that much has happened since our last chat in October. Yes, it took some time__actually,weeks after the deadline for the csaccac eNewsletter for me to post this Editor Note. During the impasse and delay, I posted parts of the csaccac eNewsletter to csaccac highlights this included November Birthday,significant achievements of women in the month of November,safety tips for the holidays, a special note encouraging consumers and shoppers to exercise their vote, along with special notes recognizing American Diabetes month and Veterans Day. Part of the delay of posting November's Editor Note, I attribute to a slow internet connection, while the other half of the delay I attribute to my reluctancy to peel layers,to be vocal,opinionated and reveal my true thoughts. Here's to Kelli London's Charly Epic Fiasco ,a good read and great intro "there's nothing you can't overcome." Back to the month of November, the entire month,I viewed as quite an eventful journey even with all of the highs' and low points,I worked my way through the month. I began the month with making new connections on meetme,Twitter and Facebook,lots of returns,&exchanges,I gained new experience, as well as experienced financial difficulties. Before__ I get ahead of myself, I want to apologize for this late entry__you couldnt be as surprise as I am,well,you might be more surprise if you're a frequent reader or member but as the cliche states "the show must go on." Throuhgout the years, Ive come to learn there's no excuses,only two facts, as a matter of fact and in fact. Im sure you probably have heard a ton of excuses if you're forty plus. While the truth remains elusive for some,explanations and even a good explanation could be based on some other persons, as a matter of fact. In speaking of cliches, given the two choices, Ive often re stated " to make no choice is to make a choice," Thus without much hesistation ,even after the deadline I whispered to my innerself it's the message that's most important. Certainly,I could've of waited until I felt I had every thought ,and comment perfected. However,looking pass the impasse of perfection,I felt I shouldnt wasnt any more time holding myself to perfection.Moving pass the impasse,I became resolute. In the next few weeks I hope to be able to go through my impasse without feeling quilt , less than sub human,below par,and more like the writer and Editor Ive averred to each of you and readers. Right at this moment,Ive just sat down to put pen to paper and string together my words,my thoughts to describe a few of the surprises I encountered in the month of November along with my message for the Thanksgiving holiday. And to be truthful, I rehearsed __quite a few times in the month of November the message I wanted to convey readers and each of you during the Thanksgiving holiday. Unexpected,uplanned,and caught off guard, I finally choose to become resolute in getting out my personal message for the Thanksgiving holiday. As I write this Editor Note,I realize several messages throughout this Editor Note might standout,however,it's up to you to choose the message that best fits your situation. Moving forward with November events,while everyone meaning consumers and shoppers prepared for the holidays,and making Thanksgiving plans,I also began to prepare for the Thanksgiving holiday along with millions of consumers and shoppers within the United States. Specifically,at my place of residency, I began to prepare for a visit from my dad who planned to visit for a week.Straight forwardly speaking,honesty might not always be the best policy_dont quote me wrong ,as a former Girl Scout I encourage honesty and I really dont believe in small white lies. Dolefuly ,in some instance,honesty might not always be the best policy. For example ,in relationships,if being honest might hurt someones' self esteem,feelings,or cause them social embrassment, you might want re think your approach to avoid any wrong interpretationst. I mention honesty because I dont feel that Ive been upfront and completely truthful with readers and myself in a certain area of my life to be exact the frequent number of returns and exchanges I have each month. To be honest, when I discuss ,think,or analyze the number of returns and exchanges I make each it becomes a source of embrassment. So__I'll leave it at that, because I feel at forty-something I am a lot better shopper than I had been at twenty -something. Over the years,Ive made numerous observations,and the proceeding observation always leads me back to the same conclusion "when you're not truthful with yourself the only person you hurt is you", especially in dealing with toxic negative relationships,debt,and finances. Love the term "breaking bad", I havent viewed an episode of the television series but it never fails if I hear a term or slang that's catchy it sticks with me like "Girl Code", "Guy Code", "Man Flower"," Selfie",Twitterverse ,Yo crunch,what's up,whaddya ?, Get right and so forth. Oh really!, Im for real,,if I havent said anything that has touched home in previous Editor Notes then try this on for size " no two snow flakes are the same", each of us is born with a genetic blueprint that makes both you and I uniquely different. Reading,analyzing,and making sense of "Encoding" and "Decoding" the genetic codes is something that geneticist and scientist do for a living.And most Luv it otherwise they wouldnt make a pretty good living from it,lets face a lot of this stuff is dealing with the unknown and uncharted territory. Although, you and I might not be geneticist or scientist on the technical scientific platform "decoding" and "encoding" the path in life isnt always a straight line like the image of deoxyribonuclecic acid (DNA) but the ultimate responsbility ,and you could even think of it as your job to find your path in life that fits you.As a pre teen , I recall often being told to slow down and stop acting fast. Later in life, I would often re state an anynomous cliche not verbatim so please dont quote me. Basically the cliche stated, actually it made an observation of how two people could be traveling to be exact heading in the same direction ,on the same path except one is traveling at a higher rate of speed. Outrageously, bad,in this particular, bad meaning Bad . Ironically both end up in the same place execept one chose to travel at a higher speed. Somewhere between point A and B the message had been dont rush;stop to smell the roses and the coffee,in life you only get one dress rehearsal, be careful,be polite and be cautious because the person standing next to could be your next employer. Its been tested,tried,and proven , when you rush situations ,even day to day task you run the risk of eliminating you big break. As a rule of thumb,give each day your full attention, look both ways before crossing the street, and think before you speak. Hey, it sounds like Im giving a mini consultation. Alright,back to the month of November,you caught me an English major_speechless__please,dont call any of my professors, I have transcripts, I did graduate__off the topic again. So,I just had a brief moment of relief,it felt good. So,here I go again_what really happened in the month of November? Change of temperature,feelings of uncertainty about life in general along with feeling pressure to write a must read blog. Stepping back into the honesty realm,every

time,as the due date neared to have the Editor Note complete for the newsletter__each moment,I wanted to move forward something within my spirit wouldnt let me breakout of my shell. Eventually,I gave into the force of least resistance. Ultimately,I had to set aside the tasks,and,the work I wanted to complete the most;for instance,my blog . There's only writer,and Im both a Editor and Blogger. Being pulled in both directions,m y blog took a big hit because I chose not to post my writings as Id planned each month. A tough decision __,but it saved me from dealing with editing,revising,corrections ,and above of everthing else public scrutiny as well as embrassment. On the other side of the spectrum, by the delaying post,it causes me to feel inadequate and not well equipped to be a blogger. Most of the feelings I just described stems from the fact, I subcribe to other bloggers some who blog daily and others who blog weekly. Right at moment,I have a few bloggers that blow up my Inbox each week__,it's really exasperating,because they want you to read their blog on the spot. With the understanding that a lot of people have taken up blogging as a profession which usually entails 8 hours a day Monday thru Sunday. On the whole, the blogging profession is a time consuming, to be honest with you that kind of or level of commitment isnt always feasible or reasonable for people who have to make a living the old fashion way. Admittedly as an English major its a double whammie,a slap in the face,other than just being in your face every week__ , Im about talking the daily and weekly blogger,its an English major worst nightmare to feel that you have to write or read something everyday.And in all honesty, when I dont have my blogs complete,I am constantly thinking about my unfinish blogs in the same manner I think about completing my Editor Notes each month. For reason stated in previous Editor Notes,I am a monthly blogger,not to mention that it takes time to read and comment on blog post.As a result of the uncomfortable feeling attached to those frequent blogs posted in my Inbox, Ive found relief in postponing the reads_it works, __I got this Editor Note done,after the fact.Moving forward_, Ive said that a lot in this Editor Note and probably will say it a few more times before I reach the end of this Editor Note. Much has happened in the month of November,and as the New Year approaches, I feel that its important to keep moving forward,meaning learn from life's lessons and experiences while giving thanks. In speaking of Thanksgiving,__Thanksgiving,the word itself is self explanatory,to give thanks. Traditionally, the Thanksgiving holiday has been an excellent time to give thanks for all of the people who has touched our lives,as well as, has had a positive effect on our daily lives. In fact,Thanksgiving continues to a big family tradition in the United States. From a small age,the Thanksgiving tradition has been a part of my family lifestyle. From the clasroom to home,the Thanksgiving tradition,was taught, practiced, and included into the lives of nearly everyone that I knew. Moving forward to the some of the surprises and shock ,I received during the month of November,that included the closing of BlockBuster,finding a new Luv __FredFlare, then__losing my new Luv. First , on the list, the closing of BlockBuster video stores. Floored,shocked,and saddened to here and see the BlockBuster video stores had been set close in 2013,I took to Social Media___, specifically, Twitter,Facebook,and LinkedIn to vocalize my disbelief, in one post I stated "I didnt a unsecured credit card__I had my BlockBuster card" Weeks before the announce went public on National prime time news,I had visited the location where a BlockBuster had a store in the city I reside,it just so happened to be the same store where I registered and received my third or fourth BlockBuster card that's beside the point. Eventhough, I hadnt been inside BlockBuster for a while, I didnt make a big deal of the big yellow sign across the front of the store stating it was having a final store sale. At the minute I saw the big yellow sign,I thought the store was having sale getting ready for new inventory,a little bit surprised to see the sign. Then,I thought__oh,I just havent been to the plaza in awhile and made nothing of it. Until the a prime time new broadcast with announcing the closing of the remain BlockBuster video stores. Unequivocally,it's the end era,the closing of BlockBuster stores. As I listened to the newsport ,and even before the news report__I recalled all of the late nights I spent inside BlockBuster with my aunt and friends roaming the aisles,looking for a BlockBuster__a video to take home. I also recalled ,the new releases,three day rentals,late fees, follow by a major company media marketing pitch __no more late fees,and their final media marketin pitch before their exit_trade in videos. And_ sadly, you wont find sales associate at BlockBuster on my resume_ although, in my teens I strongly thought about putting in application,. Im really,who wouldnt have wanted to work for BlockBuster,it's a Dream Job. Instead,I chose to go a four year university.

A timed honoured tradition,Thanksgiving reminds us all of how far as a nation that we've come since the first Thanksgiving meal first served in 1621. For decades,family,friends,food and good conversation have been a part of the Thanksgiving tradition,I like a lot of consumers and shoppers have enjoy many Thanksgiving at home,in the presence of family and friends gathered around large dining tables layered with all the traditional holiday foods.Nowadays,the holidays remain a great time to get reacquainted with family and friends,share recipes,catch sales,and reflect upon previous Thanksgivings.Forthright and reverential,the Thanksgiving holiday throughout the years continues to be a great time for American consumer and shoppers to count their blessing big and small,and,to be thankful for what they have beyond material things.Clearly,there's more to Thanksgiving than discounts,sales,and store promotions.As I write this Thanksgiving holiday message,thousands of volunteers prepare to gather at local churches,and at local community organization to serve complete strangers as well as families a Thanksgiving meal. A day to set aside qualms ,Thanksgiving reminds us all of the true human spirit to help others,improve lives,and to make the world a better place for future generations.And above all,it is a day to give Thanks in words and action.This holiday live in gratitude. Well wishes,Be bless,much success,Continued Success into 2014 and Happy Thanksgiving.

A Day Of Rembrance : Honoring American Veterans

Section 1"[Right of certain citizens to vote established] The right of citizens of the United States to vote shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or by any State on account of race,color,or previous condition of servitude"---Amendment 15

From the desk of the Editor of the csaccac eNewsletter:

For decades,people from all walks of life aggregated to the United States to live the American dream.Today that dream has been plagued with economic uncertainty,political faction,and slow job growth. Despite the many obstacles and hurdles facing the American people,the Constitution of 1787 continues to stand and remains intact in each of the fifty states. One of the most important amendments to the Constitution,the 15th Amendment that allows citizens to vote. Decades after Abraham Lincoln's Emancipation Proclamation of 1863,the voting process on local and National fronts remains one of the most highly recognized fundamental human rights in the Democratic process,especially,among Afro-Americans and minorities.Ratified February,1870,the right to vote is considered a basic human right. Veritably,a tantamount of Americans feel that voting isnt just a right it's a responsibility that shouldnt be taken lightly.During specific periods in American History, women as well as Afro -Americans both worked to gain equality and the right to vote. A long hard fight,it took years of protest and public outcry from women and Afro Americans to gain voting rights. Several decades after the Women's Suffrage Movement 1848-1998 and the Civil Rights Movement of the 1960's, women and Afro Americans has secured their right to vote. As a matter of fact,women including people of all colors continue to exercise their right to vote. In 1989,I casted my first vote for a Presidential candidate at the age of eighteen. From the very rudimentary stages of my public education,I learned the importance of casting a vote. With all the obstacles and hurdles facing the American people, the voting process makes change not a dream but a reality. Voting brings within the grasp of communities,families,and schools ,the actualization of improved social conditions. As the 2014 Presidential race slowly encroaches,I'd like to remind each of you "One person can make a difference," Right at the moment ,the 2014 Presidential race remains weeks away on the calendar;however,you can begin to make a difference this November,on November 5th by casting your in local and state elections. Every Vote Counts,2013!

First Impression Résumé & Job Readiness

Sweaty palms, a nervous twitch, parched lips, or words that just won’t come — does that sound familiar? No, you are not waiting to perform before an audience of 20,000 adoring fans! You are driving into the parking lot anticipating your upcoming interview for a new job. What is the key to minimizing your fear and feeling in control of the interview? Preparation and practice, practice, practice are key protocols to successful interviewing. Even the most seasoned professional develops a solid interview strategy and prepares adequately to avoid an interrogation by an untrained interviewer. Don’t make the mistake of comparing the “gift of gab” with well-honed interview skills. Remember… there is no such thing as an innocent question. You are being judged from the moment you walk in the door or speak on the telephone until the instant you are offered the job.

Focus research on each targeted company

Once you land an interview, research the targeted organization thoroughly.

Focus completely on the company’s needs, not your own. Study the corporate website and read the Annual Report, executive bios, company mission statement, and other important information. Use the local library to learn more, stop in personally and ask for company brochures and other available marketing materials, and contact inside sources to learn about critical issues, concerns, or projects your targeted department might be facing. It’s critical to know as much or more about the company than the person who interviews you. It is shocking to learn that many job seekers are not completely sure what the company does when they arrive for an interview! This simple, return on investment interview strategy sets you apart from the crowd from the beginning.

Know your résumé inside out

Develop a core message based on value and capability and adjust that message to fit each company’s need. Know your résumé inside out and prepare several stories or examples to support every point listed. With a strong arsenal of examples, you can adjust rapidly to almost any interview question and quantify, build, or compare your answers to highlight your best skills and accomplishments. In preparation, think of questions you will probably be asked and prepare solid answers based on the benefits you will bring to the organization. Identify questions you do NOT want to be asked, and prepare a strategy to address each question with a positive, confident response. Finally, define a response to “Tell me about yourself” based on your skills and achievements that match the needs of the company. This is your 90-second commercial that sets the tone for the interview. Practice with a family member or friend until you sound natural, positive, and comfortable.

“Good hours, excellent pay, fun place to work, paid training, mean boss. Oh well, four out of five isn't bad!” Help Wanted Ad, PA newspaper, 1994

You are interviewing the company for a good “fit” as much as they are interviewing you. Research five to six intelligent questions to ask the interviewer — never about vacation, wages, or benefits. You will only use a few good questions, but prepare adequately in case some are covered during the interview. For an in-person meeting, take a dry run simulating interview day traffic and plan on arriving approximately 10 minutes early. Have your interview clothes dry cleaned (sealed in a bag if you smoke) and your shoes polished. If you are unsure aboutappropriate attire for the interview, drive to the company parking lot and watch how employees are dressed as they arrive for work. Or make a simple phone call and ask the receptionist for advice. In closing, remember, there is always a market for “A” players, but people often hire for passion (attitude) and train for skills. Show enthusiasm, give concrete examples of your achievements, and present a positive attitude. Ace YOUR next interview before it begins.

Free Credit Reports

Cest Combien? Dispelling the myth about those advertisments offering free credit reports and free credit scores. What consumers should know about too many frequent inquires on their credit report?

Equifax, Trans Union, and Experian are all credit reporting agencies, before extending a line of credit; many lenders will request credit reports from one of the following credit reporting agencies. Each year, consumers are allowed at least one free credit report from each of the three credit reporting agencies. In order for consumers to receive, a free credit report, the consumer must make a written request to the credit reporting agency of their choice. A photo copy of the consumer’s drivers’ license or state identification, social security number, and proof of residence must accompany their written request for their credit reports. Primarily the purpose of credit reporting agencies are to keep track of consumers borrowing habits. Credit reporting agencies were established to monitor a consumer credit history. In fact, the information found in a consumer’s credit report helps lenders and credit companies determine the credit worthiness of the consumer. As a result, consumers whose credit reports show adverse information, for example, too many inquiries, too many delinquencies, or too many opened accounts could cause the consumer to be denied additional credit and charged high interest rates on existing, accounts.Likewise,consumers could also be charged excessive interest rates on cars, appliance, electronics, and homes because of poor credting rating. Nevertheless, all consumers regardless of their score and rating should monitor their credit regularly for inaccuracies. Debt Consultation Companies highly recommend that consumers review their credit regularly, each year, to make sure the information written in consumers credit report are accurate. Recently, I made a written request to two of the credit reporting agencies for my credit report. Usually, I will request for my credit report at least once a year. This year it was very important that I requested a credit report because I have a vested interest in knowing what is on my credit report as an Entrepreneur/minority business owner. In many instances , consumers working to improve their credit history maybe only a few steps away including myself could be on the road to recovery and improving your credit score. Credit counselors advise consumers: ---to know what is in their (3) three credit reports ---to make an honest effort to resolve any past due accounts ---to check for inaccuracies in their reports ---to reduce their number of accounts….. Furthermore, credit reporting agencies also inform consumers that adverse information may remain on their credit report for up to (7) seven years. Whereas, bankruptcies are reported for (10) ten years (http:// www.creditwatch.equifax.com) To conclude, another credit reporting agency states consumers can expect to find the following on their credit reports: “---potentially negative items or items for further review” “---accounts in good standing” “---History of their account balances” “---Request for their credit history” --- C’est Combien en tout?

Tech Crunch the newest section to the csaccac eNewletter,in this section geared towards the technically tech challenge and the most literate tech technician. In short,from beginners to experts there's something for everyone in this section. Beginning this summer,tech crunch will appear in future csaccac eNewsletter. In all actuality,it could take a single consumer or shopper hours upon hours to gather all or at most to scratch the surface or to put a dent in all of the lastest tech terminology and reviews. For that reason,I chose to simplify the search along with saving you some time by adding a few links to the experts,groupies,followers,and fans who in each review gives you latest in tech news. Among a long list of job titles and job descriptions,I am a consumer and a shopper.Without question,it's easy to get distract while browsing the internet,especially for beginners.On a different day,I'd loved to be able to to peruse tech articles and links all day,but that's not a realistic task I could perform daily or even on the weekends. Aside from everything else I perform frequently incuding being a consumer and shopper,I ve got a blog plus admin duties that require I maintain two websites. Ultimately, the various job related task I perform makes it aboslutely impossible to perform any task longer than eight hours. Even on a good day,____without fail, I fall short of completing all the task. Make no mistake about it , Im not tech geek. Therefore,I had to figure out the quickest way to get you the most relevant tech news in the least amount of space. And in all honesty, just a point of fact,you might find everything you what to know and learn about tech gadgets, right in this section,in an article or with a click on an external link. Shortly after the cell phone went from being a text messenger's bestfriend,to a multitasking Smart Phone,I began the tech crunch. With tech gadgets constantly evolving along with tech terms and terminology,a technically tech challenged web surfer might have a hard time deciphering tech specs as well as choosing the right tech gadget for their lifestyle. As the tech craze began to explode,I began to seriously follow the tech craze after purchasing my first Smart Phone from Virgin Mobile. At the height of the tech craze,I gained a strong interest in popular tech gadgets that performed an array of functions,for instance,the most widely received tech gadgets that immediately caught my attention included Smart Phones,Digital Cameras,Netbooks,and portable laptops also called micro computers. As a matter of fact,I attribute part of my strong interest in tech gadgets to mass marketing and advertising. In addition to mass marketing and media blitz,the other reason for my strong interest in tech gadgets,I attribute to neccessity and job related responsibilities. Ostensibly,the launching of high tech gadgets appeared to touch everyone within its grasp. At alarming rate,tech gadgets began to pop up everywhere from local chain stores to brand named retailers,it appeared that consumers ,shoppers,buyers and retailers hadnt been immuned to the tech craze. Veritably,before the craze,I considered myself computer literate. As a matter of fact,I had taken a secondary ed computer course in college. Then__,a few years later,I enrolled in an administrative course at a vocational school that required I attended a basic computer class. Admittedly,between the computer course in college and the admin class,I felt pretty confident with working PC's (personal computers)As a result of both classes,I quickly enhanced my PC vocabulary in addition to computer skills. Straight forwardly speaking,within the past six to eight years,Ive observed that,computer literacy and tech terminology have a few words in common. On the other hand ,I've also ascertained that computer literacy and tech terminology both belong to separate worlds. Joint at the hip,it became increasingly apparent that two__,computer literacy and tech terms didnt have much in common other than the device used to obtain and input information.For the most part,an internet user that's able to recognize the difference between the two is probably more than likely to quickly grasp and understand tech talk. Today,much of what Ive learned about various tech gadgets has been through marketing ,advertising,YouTube videos and individual purchases. Typically,before purchasing a tech gadget,I like to gather as much information that's made readily accessible to the public before making a final choice. Normally,I base my final choice on several specifications and features,as well as locality. When checking out a product,I usually begin with price,the style,the model,the manufacturer then I proceed to what I consider must have features this frequently includes various functions,processing system,and apps. Quick guides,YouTube tours,tutorials,reviews and demonstrations make it easier for consumers and shoppers to get to know their tech gadgets. On a last note,get to know the specs before you buy. High time someone figured out all that tech talk,it's only forthright it should be one of those tech guys or girls, An awesome tech chat,and just the beginning,thanks for checking in,__I hate goodbyes,so then for now I'll keep it to a minimum,__sms, TyuL,twtyL,ch@wuL,Lol,IBCNUL,I really enjoyed chating with you this month. Imperceptibly,Ive reached the end of the Tech Crunch for this month,__but that doesnt mean you have to wait to get the latest and newest info on tech stuff take a few minutes to visit the external below for more tech info.

Presenters make presentations based on the content they want to convey and their audience. In most instances,it's the presenters job to persuade,convince and inform the audience on a specific subject or topic. Outrageously humorous,after of hours of research and practice,without fail,the first thing that grabs the audience attention is how the presenter is dress,the same is true for each job seeker who lands an interview with a potential employer. As a matter of fact,most employers frequently observe how a job candidate is dressed for the interview. Ultimately,the real truth behind the interview process is being able to make that initial contact with an employer. At the same time,the blaring reality of most typical interviews is the interview process usually begins before a job candidate walks into an interviewers hub or snare. Eventually,at some during the interview process,it is the visual contact,that face to face,in person meeting that wows the employer or interviewer. And like a presenter who wants to win audiences,and impress sponsors,it's the interviewee jobs to wow each prospective employer. From classroom presentations,to seminars,to webinars,to conferences,to local community activities,to interviews,first impressions make lasting impressions. Truthfully,"Dress for Success" isn't just a cliche it's a life mantra that all serious job seekers and job hunters should practice continuously. In June's eNewsletter,I discuss a few basic tips to creating a great cover letter. Veritably, a cover letter is for all purposes intended suppose to be an actual representation of you as well as the skills you possess. Most importantly,the cover letter is what each prospective employer will consider along with your resume before scheduling an interview. In all actuality,the cover letter is the first visual representation that an employer has of you insight of other candidates. If you've happen to of had the opportuntity to attend any kind of seminar,webinar or conference then Im sure you understand the importance of visual effects and appearances,cover letters opens lines of communication,resumes nabs interviews,and first impressions seize the job. To conclude,if at any point during the interviewing process you've asked yourself "where do I begin?" begin as a presenter,think like a presenter, do your homework,list your weakness and strength,create a cover letter that depicts the real you,and tweak your resume.

After you've completed your homework,and grabbed that first interview,___dont forget you're the presenter,so you should always,remember to dress to impress . For a fact dress to impress always make great beginnings. And wow the interviewer. Unequivocally,first and foremost ,think of your audience the message you want to convey from the moment you walk on stage/walk into the interviewers snare,to the minute you conclude your presentation/to the minute you answer the last question,you're the presenter and its your job to inform, persuade,and convince the interview you're the right candidate for the job.---cacjohnson

From the desk of the Editor,President and Founder of csaccac Inc;

Typically,the holidays are a great time to get re acquainted with family and friends. In fact,for a tantamount of consumers and shoppers,preparation for the holidays begin at home. Among the numerous preparations consumers and shoppers make during the holiday season,holiday shopping often receives its fair share of attention.Throughout the years,many of the traditional holidays has become a big media marketing and advertising circus.Tradition,especially family tradition has been around in my family for many years including the celebration of Thanksgiving,Christmas,and New Years. As a matter fact,I recall the years as a pre teen and teen when I celebrated the holidays with my grandmother and cousins. Back then conversation,food and music often noted the holidays,the focus in those days seemed more about family than stuff. Today,without a question,the holidays are a great time to catch a sale. Sadly,with all of the media advertising and marketing,the reason as well as true meaning of the holiday season through translation has lost meaning over the years.And_,it goes without saying, when consumers and shoppers take a moment away from the commericials,ads,and promotions,they quickly learn that history and religion has contributed to many of the traditional holidays most Americans honor and recognize within the U.S. And yet_, it's not surprising,each year,a myriad consumers and shoppers forge ahead with holiday preparations,at the same time a vast number of retailers,chain stores,and department stores begin making preparations for the holiday season and holiday shoppers with decorations,discounts,and sales. Aside from the commericials,ads,and promotions, there's another side to holiday season that for some consumers and shoppers it requires them to take a closer look at those holiday meals.Of course,to some consumers and shoppers,the holidays wouldnt be quite right without a large holiday meal with all of the fixins. Egregiously,it's those large holiday meals that puts many consumers and shoppers health at risk. Straight forwardly speaking,in previous years,I often looked forward to the holiday meals prepared by family and friends. Be that as it may,at forty something,and since founding the csaccac Inc,Ive had to re think how I look at those holiday meals as I increase my awareness about diabetes. Condignly fitting,due to the large scale of consumers and shoppers affected by the disease,across the US,the month of November has been designated as American Diabetes Month. Diabetes, a disease that affects millions of American young and old has been identified as a life threatening illness if not detected or treated at the rudimentary stages. So,as the Thanksgiving holiday approaches,I pause to learn the signs and symptoms of diabetes,once again. Thankful for the moment,this holiday season,I seized a opportunity to sit down and talk with my dad who has been living with type II diabetes for more than ten years. Bogged down with distractions and deadlines,the month seem to be getting away from me,until I became resolute to sit down and put pen to paper,right in the moment I became resolute and ready to go to work_ ,I stop to turned my attention to my dad who's visiting for the holidays. As I watched my dad,a diabetic,begin to manage his diabetes,_I instantly recalledthat November has been designated as American Diabetes Month. Truly bless to spend a few days with my dad before the Thanksgiving holiday,I took the opportunity to ask him about how he manages his diabetes. Currently,within the US there's two major kinds of diabetes.Like cancer, there's help and treatment for the disease. Although,there's no known cure,diabetes can be treated.Managing Diabetes: While I watched my dad manage his diabetes,I asked him a few questions. First,I asked "what's the first thing you have to do? then,I asked him "how do you manage your diabetes?" As he completed his daily diabetes regimen,he began to answer my questions.In response to my first question,he stated,first he takes a reading. As part of managing his diabetes,he had to take reading of his blood sugar three times a day. Gracious and even tempered,he showed me the device he uses to monitor his blood sugar. He also showed me his daily diabetes diary that he takes with him on doctor visits. And,in response to my second question ,I concluded that he manages his diabetes with medicine and a balance diet. Because diet plays a vital role in managing diabetes,families who has family members with diabetes might prepare traditional holiday meals differently.With an increase in awareness,over the years,several well known actors,actress,singers,and entertainers have come forward with their diabetes diagnosis,some have even written diabetic cookbooks. Meanwhile,as the American Diabetes Association increase awareness about diabetes,so does the fight to stop diabetes grows.Signs&Symptons: A few common symptons of diabetes

Perphaps,the main reason I take time out to review diabetes facts each year stems from the fact that I have family members who have been living with diabetes.To conclude,in addition to getting the facts about diabetes,this holiday season make some time to get reacquainted with family and friends.

Weekly Tv Shows,Editor Pick 2013

(REVISED&EDITED)

The switch to HDTV was the first spark that re kindled my interest in television. For years,Ive been very selective in what I view frequently on TV. And to be truthful,if the show doesn't have a really good theme song,I seem to lose enthusiasm or excitement for the TV series very quickly. Seemingly, this was case with Gossip Girl. Eventhough,I loved the theme song for One Tree Hill the script moved very fast and began to border line well mesh adult topics with fantasy. Ultimately, the theme song that brought me back to the show every week by itself couldn't carry the entire show or me into following seasons__. Thank goodness for pre recordings, Dvd's and tv syndication because every now,I like to watch an episode or season of the shows I couldnt view right at the time the show begins recording. In 2013,I gained a new interest in TV shows mainly because I wanted to stay up to date on latest happening for my blog and websitte. The switch to HDTV help to capture my attention. Although, Im not a couch potatoe,I have my shows I like to watch when Ive got downtime.Of course, let me make one correction,Tyler Perry's writing,acting and stage directions has keep character acting a live and in good form. Back in the day, a daytime or night time sitcom really held my attention until bedtime. Nowadays, Im in bed before the show starts,part of the reason is because theTV formula,tv magic has changed along with Tv direction. For instance, Ive observed most of the Tv shows aired on local TV channel not cable stations the actors and actress don't wear enough costume clothing,___ and the characters well they're not characters they're real people acting like real people,enough said about character acting,listed below is my 2013 Weekly Tv show Editor Pick,that's my opening line.

Images of people,places and things commonly ubiquitous____,sometimes larger than life,these images tell stories as well as capture once in a lifetime moments. Images,snapshots,and pics often capture a sentiment,a mood,a feeling,or even an idea of a person who's at the center of attention. Throughout the years,pictures has become one of the most popular ways to capture memorable moments. And certainly,for a tantamount of consumer and shoppers you cant put a price tag on family and holiday pics. Decades after the invention of the first camera, a large number of consumers and shoppers continue to take pics, in a hgh tech fashion. Instead of the antiquated bulky cameras with huge lenses,consumers and shoppers frequently use SmartPhones and digital cameras to capture images and to take holiday pics. From family gatherings,to family picnics to traditional weddings to the holidays,consumers and shoppers often seize the opportunity at planned events and during the holidays for instance Thanksgiving and Christmas to take pictures of loved ones,family,friends and co workers. As Editor of the csaccac eNewsletter,I not only write articles but I also take many of the pics posted online and inside the csaccac eNewsletter. Since founding csaccac Inc in 2010, as Founder and President,I fill many hats including Product Tester and photographer. At first,I began taking pictures with a disposable camera then with my SmartPhone,eventually,I invested in a digital camera. And truthfully speaking,in the beginning I experienced some difficulty;however,after I purchased my first digital camera I began to feel comfortable and enjoy the ease of taking pics with a digital camera. Months after I purchased my first digital camera,I set my sights on a tripod, a universal stand to hold my digital camera. The main reason I purchased a tripod__ at the time, I wanted to create high quality self pics and group pics. Eventhough, I've had my tripod for some months,I am still learning the ins and outs of both my digital camera and tripod. But,I know with the tripod I am able to create some really great self pics. Well,if you havent guessed or envisioned what the featured product for the month of November 2013 looks like or remotely even resembles __then as productor tester I guess I'll do the honors first__it's my tripod. As Editor,Product Tester,and photographer ,I chose the feature product of the month based on the number pics I ve actually taken with my tripod ,but ,most of all I chose my tripod as the product of the month because it's great to have on hand for group pics ,large family pics and of course it's great for holiday pics.---cacjohnson

Internet Safety: Privacy & Viruses

Researchers and scientist more than likely would probably agree that with the advancement of technology and the introduction of tech gadgets each year, a whole new set of problems make themselves apparent such as privacy and viruses.Heedlessly,consumer and shoppers who frequently utilize the internet as well as submit personal information by filling out various forms,registration requirements, and job applications risk unapproved groups or individuals obtaining personal information they submit through the internet . In some instances ,unknown persons,groups and individuals have hacked into internet users personal accounts,launched viruses, and sent out bogus email. For the most part,the internet is a safe place to conduct business;however,consumers and shoppers must take all of the saftey precautions to make sure that any information they submit doesn't get into the wrong hands.As a frequent internet user, I ve learned that there's several safety measures consumers and shoppers should take to prevent identity theft as well as protect other important personal information such as passwords,bank statements and credit card numbers from being stolen. Most importantly consumers and shoppers shouldn't leave all the responsiblity solely up to the internet providor of making sure that personal information they submit isn't stolen. Indeed,consumers and shoppers who frequently submit personal information through the internet,first should identify whether the site is a secure or verified site before submitting any personal information.Besides,what consumer or shopper wants to wake up one morning and learn that their identity has been stolen. While ,privacy is a concern for many consumers and shoppers that utilize the internet ,viruses, pose a different a kind of concern. In short, an internet virus infects and attacks programs often causing them to not work properly or as in some instance destroying progams and blacking out desktops. Clearly,the internet has its advantages and disadvantages. Ostensibly,the advantages seem to out weigh the disadvantages because million of American consumers and shoppers continue to utilize the internet in spite of the different risk. Lastly, listed below a few of the safety measures consumers and shoppers should practice when using the internet.

  • Identify a web site as a secure or a non-secure site(a trusted site)

  • Protect your passwords,and keep it in a safe place

  • Don't tell anyone your password

  • Confirm the identity all email senders.

  • Only open email you know is safe and have confirmed the sender.

  • Immediately contact banks and credit lenders if you think your identity has been stolen.

Do's & Dont's of Downloading

Restaurants,hotels,beaches,spas,outdoor markets,nightclubs,and more...Normally,the summer is a great time to take a traditional vacation,a mini vacation,or a nouveau chic stay-cation. As the warmer weather began to roll into Hampton Roads,I began to think seriously about how I could make the best of the summer months on a limited budget. With barely enough money saved to pay the US Department of Education every month as a part of a National Loan Rehabilitation Program,the prospect of a summer vacation or any kind of vacation,I would have to put on a bucket list until my finances or credit rating improved. In each minute,in each second that I thought about the summer months,I began to feel angry,upset,frustrated,and somewhat ashamed and embrass about my finances. Veritably,throughout the years especially in my pre teens and teens,I enjoyed numerous summer months with family and friends. Of course,back then,I didnt have to worry about who's paying or transportation. Today,at forty-something,Im singing a different tune. With no money for a vacation,I turned my thoughts to differently daily activites I could be a participant and be a part of without having to hustle up the big bucks. Inspite my extreme shopping and monthly budgeting ,the truth remains,at the end of the day,I fall short in my goals and finances. Aside from the various sporadic work I perform, most of my money has been put into joining professional organizations and building my non profit via the internet. Flash back to happier times ,a time when I held my own fate in my own hands, an independent young lady who pay her bills and her rent with a road trip every now and then. Winter,Spring,Summer or Fall,I lived to be an Independent young lady calling her own shots. Almost eleven years ago from this day,I went to Jamaica for a classmates wedding,one of the most frequently visited islands in the Virgin Islands.OMG!!!it's hard to believe that it has been that long ago,anyhoot,I enjoyed the trip without all of today's tech gadgets,quite amazingly,I re visit the once in a lifetime trip with pics that I keep in a mini photo album. After I stop dumping on myself,I realized one the many ways I could make the best of this summer is with my Kindle. Egregiously,for a English major,the Kindle on my Smart Phone had been out of sight for months. Apparently,I hadnt reactivated my Kindle since the last phone swap I completed with Virgin Mobile. To conclude,I listed below a few of books Im sampling this summer. So,without much adieu,here's my summer reading list.Have a great summer and dont forget Safety First.

As the internet expanded and attracted more users, its developers created software to reduce, and decrease internet piracy,identity theft, and viruses.

National Consumer Alerts

If you've ever had a favorite movie,song,TV show,car,book,or fast food item,you probably have had to sample a few of each item before making a final decision. In a lot instances,most American consumers and shoppers learn their preferences,likes, and dislikes by testing and sampling different products. Undisputably,consumerism fills a significant portion of the economic growth in the American economy. In fact,the consumer market remains today a vast market and it continues to be a vital part of the American economy. For decades,American consumers steered the economy. Until the 2008 recession,consumerism in the United Stated had been booming at phenomenal rates,the recession deeply impacted consumerism and it caused consumerism to become saturnine. Without warning,the 2008 effected all markets. Life before the recession shows a thriving economy and consumer spending out of control. Even though,consumerism hasnt returned to full swing American consumers and shoppers cautiously continue to purchase different products and big ticket items.Furthermore, an in depth look at consumer reports and research clearly shows in previous year both consumers and shoppers utilized different products at home,at work,in schools,colleges and businesses. Ostenisbly,the various products often utilized by consumers and shoppers throughout the years has assisted a myriad of consumers and shoppers to becoming more productive. Frequently,consumers and shoppers purchase certain products to assist making daily task a lot easier. Imperceptible at times,other times through habit,__to others unknowningly,a point of fact, all consumers and shoppers could be classified as a product tester simply based upon their daily and weekly routine. As Editor,Found and President of csaccac Inc,Ive stated in several post,articles as well as in my blog that I hold several positions at the csaccac Inc including product tester. To be truthful,testing different stuff,items and products is not a task I recently discovered. Straightforwardly speaking,__ in all actuality,Ive been testing and sampling different products for years as a small kid,pre teen,teen,college student,young adult,consumer and shopper. Unmindful at times,__like a lot of unskilled,inept,and inexperienced consumers and shoppers,in previous years,the sometimes arduous,tedious,pretentious,and methodical process a tantamount of consumers and shoppers perform each year before and after making a purchase, I didnt fully realize or understand the task I had being performing out of had habit. And in all honesy,I hadnt seriously given consideration to being a product tester until 2006 when I first begin to the csaccac Official Fundraising site as well as csaccac brand. A few years later,while unpacking a bag of groceries at my moms home,I inadvertently stumbled upon a postulate,it had been staring me in the face for soooo many years. Besides being a consumer,and a shopper,I through habit had also become a product tester. Even now,at forty something it strikes me as being kind of odd seeing,simply for the fact, I worked with array of stuff in retail in various departments. From groceries to clothing to electronics to house hold supplies,Ive tried soooo many different things and kinds of stuff. In effect,__I guess you could probably attribute my preferences,likes,and dislikes to the fact___,I first had to test ,sample, and purchase different stuff to learn what I like. Even today,I continue to test,sample,and purchase different stuff;however, this time around Im more heedful,more vocal,more engaged,and better trained.
