CuePrompter.com – The Online Teleprompter
Check out this awesome Web app the next time you have to give a presentation or otherwise impress people with your "impromptu" speaking skills. Online Teleprompter is a free teleprompter/autocue service. Your browser works like a teleprompter with no extra software needed.
Input your text, select a few variables, and Cueprompter will transform your screen into a giant teleprompter–just like what you'd see as a news broadcaster. You can play and pause the scrolling text, alter the speed, and send it in reverse (or forward) to catch up to bits and pieces you might have accidentally missed.
Cueprompter is super-easy to use and gives you a decent amount of options (screen size, font size, and black-on-white or white-on-black coloration) for what ultimately amounts to a very simple teleprompter service. The only downside is that you're limited to a maximum of 2,000 characters for any given teleprompter window. But, hey, if you need more… you can always open up a new Cueprompter tab in your browser, right?
Salaried Managers Are Being Shifted To Slave Labor
The present economy is actually a depression. They want us to believe that it's a recession. But the entire spectrum of our culture as it concerns corporations; banking; real estate; retail; products and manufacturing; has been impacted dramatically.

Ultimately, it's those very few people at the top, that is adversely; and permanently; damaging our civilization. They want their revenue streams into their own pockets to remain high. It's all about them and their narcissism.
So this brings to the title of the article. One of the many things that is being done corporately is the restructuring of job duties and workloads. Operations managers on the lower rungs – store managers, restaurant managers, and the like; have been reduced in number per store unit. Where once you had management teams from three to five – you now have two to three.
Keeping Up With Job References Over The Years
As the years roll by like water rushing under a bridge – the people we know change; and especially their locations and contact info. This creates a problem; if ever the need arises for you to job hunt. Having past references to give; from bosses to co-workers; is something that will eventually come up toward the end of the interviewing/hiring process.

A study generating national attention illustrates that Bill O’Reilly makes use consistently of propaganda techniques identified in the 1930's.
Professor Mike Conway is co-author of a study focusing on the oft-discussed media personality Bill O’Reilly. While many have accused the Fox News anchor of inciting fear and bias among his audience, what makes Conway and his colleagues’ research unique is quantitative data to back up their claims.
