My website has been up for about 1.5 years. The site ranks well with MSN, Yahoo and Google. However, the site has NOT made any $$$ cause I have not had the time to sell ads or really promote the site.

That being said, the domain name has been appraised at leapfish.com for an Estimated Value: $16, 296.00

I'd like to sell the site for a reasonable offer. Any ideas?

Very excited and I am looking for really good tips that will save me money and aggrivation. I started out as a graphic artist and portrait painter many years ago. This will be my 5th business. I have had small businesses like day spas and supply companies. This appeals to me because of my art background. As usual I am flying solo so I know little, other than I want to get a solvent jet printer (very expensive) and a sand blaster for HDU. I have already bought a 36 inch vinyl plotter/cutter and I'm learning how to run software and cut with it. I set up an account with a Raleigh supplier, I'm in North Carolina. Ready to go! Thanks for any help.

I'm currently a highschool sophmore and I feel like I have nothing to go for. There are soo many choices for careers that I just can't seem to pick or know whats best for me =/. I want a career that has a salary of -atleast- around $65,000-80,000(US) or more a year... I HATE math/algebra but I like physics and chemistry. I also like art,design and graphics (but i dont consider myself an expert at it.).. I know this might be impossible but are thier any careers that dont require SOO much school?

So anyhow, anyone have any idea on what career/job I should try and look into? Oh and if you can please tell me how much years of school it will require that'll be nice too =).

I am new to the area and business. Everyone says to make a list of everyone I know but I don't know anyone in this state and I already send my family and friends out of state business cards and talked to them. Door knocking is time consuming and I think there has to be a better way. Has anybody tried something that worked for them?

I just bought some groceries from a major supermarket. When I paid for the groceries, the checker accidentally gave me an extra $10. I knew she made the mistake, but took the money and ran out. Tell me why should I feel guilty about this and should I have returned the $10.

our hand book states that there is a 180 trail period and the employee has been ok for about 90 day. Come to find out today we ever the supervisor walks out of the run she talks trash. Like he has no balls or the person move stuff around and makes a joke that oh the supervisor is going to be mad about this. The other people in the office dont want to work with this person any more and I being the office manager doesnt even want to talk with her. The owner says that we are taking it personal about this employee and that is not a good enought reason to let her go. She is slow with work and doesnt do a clean job about it. She doesnt follow directions. We have not given a verbal or a write up to her just because she is such a pain to even talk to. It is a small company only 7 people there and it just sucks. She is a major kiss *** to the owner and he claim that he sees it but at the same time i think he likes it. How do I just get rid of her and make sure that the company is covered?

I was efiling but AL will not let me efile my nonresident (we are military family) forms. Printed them to send in, however, noticed my dependents were not listed on the AL form. Since they are on the AZ form, is there something that says I can't claim them for both states. I don't understand why I can't (but lotta tax things i dont understand, lol) Need to know if I should write them in and refigure my form before sending. Thanks!

After we purchased our land we spotted a cabin in the trees. This was in May 2005 and now there is a couple claiming it is their cabin and want to take it off the land. They claim because the cabin is on skids that it doesn't belong to the land. We bought our land "as is" and don't feel they have any rights to the cabin. Before we took possession of the land but after we had made an offer to buy the land "as is" 2 sheds on skids were taken from the land. The seller compensated us for these sheds so obviously it shouldn't matter if the buildings are on skids or not. They have contacted a lawyer, I suppose we will have to do that also. Thanks for your time

I work for an IT department in a big company and my teams supports all the server hardware in our datacenters. The server hold vital information and also run our company's internal and external webpages. I just got a new boss and he handed out little poster which he would like everyone to stick on their cubes. Basically the poster refers to the datacenters as sanctuaries and temples and to keep them holy and clean. Yeah, it doesn't say anything about specific religion, but I found his analogy strange and athiests in our group are more uncomforable with the situation. Is this strange?
