Thank You for supporting Poodle and Mandy’s quest!

I would like to thank everyone who voted for Poodle (Electra) in the Cutest Dog Competition.  Your love and support in trying to make Mandy’s wish come true brought lots of smiles and excitement to Mandy’s life.

Although we do not know the final totals yet and who actually won the competition we believe that Poodle may have come in second which is amazing in its self and we could not have gotten there without everyone’s help.

You can follow Poodle and Mandy at their Facebook fanpage HERE!

Again, thank you to all who participated and casted their vote!

n121210332357_4765The other day I was fortunate and honored to be asked by a friend to help setup a fan page on Facebook for a remarkable young lady named Mandy.  Mandy is 8 years old and was diagnosed with Neurofibromatosis Type 1 (NF1) on Oct. 23, 2001, her first birthday. She was diagnosed with a bilateral Optic Gliomas on Feb. 18, 2008. This malignant diagnosis prompted her starting chemotherapy. She also has a several tumors in the ventricle areas and brain stem that are beliveved to be benign, but cause problems by taking up space in a very vital area.  You can read her story here:  Mandy’s Journal.

Recently Mandy and Poodle entered the Cutest Dog Competition. It would really make her wish come true if her beautiful Standard Poodle Electra aka “Poodle” would win.  Mandy’s plea has won the hearts of many and she has had overwhelming support in her quest.  As of right now I believe she is in second place behind a Beagle.  I am pleading with everyone to PLEASE go and vote!  It would be greatly appreciated and would make Mandy smile as she is keeping track of the rising numbers.

Voting has been extended until this Sunday as there was an outage of some sort yesterday so if you could please take the time to vote once a day until then that would be awesome!

Join Mandy’s fanpage on Facebook and show your support!

ALSO PLEASE TELL EVERYONE YOU KNOW TO VOTE!

What business structure is right for me? Part:5 Limited Liability Company (LLC) | Small Business Information

Limited Liability Company (LLC)
The LLC is a relatively new type of hybrid business structure that is now permissible in most states. It is designed to provide the limited liability features of a corporation and the tax efficiencies and operational flexibility of a partnership. Formation is more complex and formal than that of a general partnership.
The owners are members, and the duration of the LLC is usually determined when the organization papers are filed. The time limit can be continued, if desired, by a vote of the members at the time of expiration. LLCs must not have more than two of the four characteristics that define corporations: Limited liability to the extent of assets, continuity of life, centralization of management, and free transferability of ownership interests.

Federal Tax Forms for LLC
Taxed as partnership in most cases; corporation forms must be used if there are more than 2 of the 4 corporate characteristics, as described above.

In summary, deciding the form of ownership that best suits your business venture should be given careful consideration. Use your key advisers to assist you in the process.
