“Home / Small Business / 12 Weeks to Startup
Week 12: Fine-tuning and growing”
Rick Spence, Financial Post
Published: Monday, March 24, 2008
SNIPPET: “You’ve survived the startup phase of your business, an intensive process that has challenged all your initiative, creativity and resourcefulness. Now begins the hard part.
There’s no such thing as a static business. Whether you are trucking goods across the country or selling via a Web site from your basement, your business must keep on getting sharper, stronger and smarter. If you are not moving forward, your competitors will leave you behind - and so too will your customers.”

“Career Fair Focuses on Space Industry”
SNIPPET: “College students and transitioning military interested in exciting careers in the space industry can get tips from someone with real space experience.
It’s happening at the Space Foundation’s Space Career Fair on Thursday, April 2, at The Broadmoor Hotel in Colorado Springs, Colorado.
The first 300 job seekers to register and check-in will also attend a networking lunch featuring Anousheh Ansari, space ambassador and first female private space explorer.
The Space Career Fair, from 8:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. on April 2, is part of the Space Foundation’s 25th National Space Symposium, which runs March 30 - April 2, at The Broadmoor.
The Space Career Fair features presentations about space employment and provides opportunities for attendees to hand out resumes and meet with more than 20 extraordinary space-age employers.
The outlook for landing a well-paid professional position in space and aeronautics is stronger than most other career fields - good news for job seekers in this difficult economy.
Open to college students and transitioning military with degrees or experience in science, technology, engineering, mathematics, or business administration, the Space Career Fair is the leading source of information regarding current and future career opportunities, industry trends, and upcoming space-related workforce needs.
To register or find out more about the Space Career Fair, visit www.SpaceCareerFair.org.
The registration fee of $20 covers the event and - for the first 300 to register and check in - the networking session with Ansari.
The deadline for online registration is Friday, March 27.
Registration will also be available onsite the day of the Space Career Fair, starting at 7:30 a.m.
All attendees, including those who have pre-registered, must present a student or military ID to be admitted.”
Looking for work here in North TX. I am an information technology engineer, with 10 years experience. I hold the MCSE: 2003 certification and the CCNA. I have a Master’s degree in Information Assurance, and have a CISSP certification as well. I know Windows environments, Cisco and HP networking, EMC SAN storage, and plenty of other technologies. I have been out of work since Dec ‘08. TX has one of the strongest economies of any state around, so there’s not much point in my moving. The only other area where my skills are in demand is DC and I can’t afford to relocate there, due to cost of living and the fact that I would lose my current level of custody of my daughter. Anyone have a line on a good place to work in the Dallas/Fort Worth area?
