The online version of Computer Repair with Diagnostic Flowcharts includes eight flowcharts excerpted the published book. Probably the most common failure with inexpensive PCs is the power supply, but a PC that fails to light up the screen immediately after you move it often has a dislodged video adapter. The Motherboard, CPU and RAM are treated on the same flowchart, and the basic IDE chart covers drive failures, and CD/DVD drives have their own chart. Networks and network cabling problems are featured, along with modem connection issues and sound/multimedia issues. We get you started in the PC business with a case study in the hardware business, with a customer and for whom you are going to buy the parts and build a PC. Afterwards, you'll deliver it and service it over and over again. If we extended the study for the average person, next you'll become convinced that you'll get rich if you just lower your prices and get more customers (sell at a loss, make it up in volume) After the case study, we examine the difference between a business and a hobby.
Print-on-Demand, combined with short-discount distribution and Internet marketing, is turning the publishing business on its head. For the first time, authors are finding that they can launch their own publishing businesses and earn more from their writing than they would with a major trade publisher. Small imprints can invest their scarce resources in acquiring, designing and promoting new titles, rather than gambling on tons of books that cost money to keep in inventory. Sarah Menkin Foner was the first woman to publish a Hebrew novel, "The Love of the Righteous" - Vilna, 1880. "The Children's Path" was published in 1886 with a dedication to Sir Moses Montifiore, and is the first published children's story in Hebrew by a woman. The novella "The Treachery of Traitors" is a Biblical fiction set in Second Temple times, published in 1891. She followed this with "Memories of My Childhood" which appeared in 1903. Her last published piece appeared in the American magazine Shaharut in 1919, a short story of how she came to learn Hebrew as a little girl.

I've been writing more about becoming self employed and what it takes to plan and run a small business lately. A big part of being self employed is understanding business taxes and the limited application of tax deductions. There's a full guide to self employment tax for the sole proprietor, and some very worthwhile statistics about self employed sole proprietors.
