Small business vs big business7/2/2023 Keep up with The Small Business Administration, and read up on additional tips.Sign up for local business’ loyalty programs – Does a local business have a customer loyalty and rewards program? Sign up for it – not only will you be supporting a local business, but you’ll get discounts and rewards for it, too.Also write positive Yelp reviews for the small businesses you love and support. Get vocal on social – Post pictures, tweets, and status updates of either the small business you own, or of yourself shopping at one, and be sure to use the hashtag #ShopSmall.Need milk, eggs, bread, or beer? Go to the local corner store instead – Say “hey” and get to know the owner who’s paying taxes to keep your neighborhood in tip-top shape. Shop small, of course! And not just on Small Business Saturday, but every day that you can. How do you get more involved in the small business movement? This is a great start: According to a study conducted by Trulia and noted in Forbes, the second most popular desire amongst urbanites is a stronger sense of community – number one being more local restaurants. You’re much more likely to get to know a small business owner in your neighborhood. Small businesses create a sense of community If a small business doesn’t have the products you want or need, ask them – they’re also usually much more receptive and willing to order them for you. Small businesses have just as much access to vendors (who also determine pricing, not stores) that big box businesses do. Small businesses provide greater access to product diversity Small business owners strive to survive and one of the biggest advantages they have over large retailers is the ability to provide more personable, hands-on, and memorable customer service. Small businesses provide better customer service The more you shop at a local store, the more potential job opportunities you could help them provide. And according to the SBA, since 1990, big businesses eliminated 4 million jobs, while small businesses added 8 million jobs. Small businesses make a major economic impactĪs mentioned above, more than half of the U.S.’s jobs since 1995 were created by small businesses. What’s more, according to Civic Economics, “on average, 48% of each purchase at local independent businesses is recirculated locally, compared to less than 14% of purchases at chain stores.” 2. Plus, that tax money is used to support public schools, parks, roads, and sidewalks, as well as fund public service workers, like firefighters. Stray to a big box business elsewhere and that money isn’t benefiting your community at all. Business pay sales taxes to the city and county the business is located in. When you support a local business, you’re also supporting your town, city, and neighborhood. Small businesses give back (more) to your community And why not EVERY day? Here are some huge reasons: 1. Originally conceived and promoted by American Express back in 2010, Small Business Saturday last year alone attracted more than 88 million people to “shop small.” But what exactly are the benefits of shopping small, and why should you do it on Small Business Saturday. It has now become a tradition – encouraging holiday shoppers to support local brick-and-mortar businesses rather than big box brands or online-only stores. Small Business Saturday is a nationally recognized holiday held the Saturday after Thanksgiving (U.S.).

Tom petty runnin down a dream7/2/2023 We chose “Runnin’ Down A Dream” because we felt we related most with those lyrics and the song rocks!” We decided very quickly that we were going to cover a song and put it on the new record. I had just seen him at the Hollywood Bowl during what would be his final run of shows, and I was very inspired. We were working on Slaves And Gods when he passed away. “He was one of my all-time favorites, and I was lucky enough to see him live several times. “ Tom Petty was and will forever be an American songwriting hero,” Dow says. Tom Petty might seem like an unlikely influence for a pagan metal band, but according to Helsott vocalist Eric Dow, covering one of his songs was an easy decision. This is a reference to Del Shannon and his popular song, Runaway.Īlso, an instrumental version of this song was used on ESPN commercials for Sunday Night Baseball.To commemorate the first anniversary of Tom Petty’s passing, the California-based pagan metal group HELSOTT has released a music video for their rendition of his 1989 classic, “Runnin’ Down A Dream,” which features Elvenking violinist Lethien. AndrÃ?s from Baton Rouge, LaThe lyrics mention "Del" and "Little Runaway".Caitlin from Sailsbury, Nci love tom petty.Danny from Sydney, Australiadamn this is a good song.Blair from Peterborough, CanadaDel Shannon worked on this Album.Steve from Oakland, CaLove it on GTA san andreas.Amay from Edison, NjOne of the best solos ever is in this song.Wow it's in GTA San Andreas!?! That suprises me! Johnny from Los Angeles, CaWow I must say Tom Petty's best song ever.I also went to a Tom Petty concert a few years back in the middle of a desert. I remember seeing the music video when I was younger. I read somewhere that they won't be using popular songs for GTA 4. Evil Joe from Suffragette City, CoGTA games usually pick good songs for their classic rock radio stations.I was shocked that she knew that song, especially considering that most ladies in their twenties are (sadly) into kiddie pop and rap. Darrell from EugeneI have an amusing anecdote to tell about this song: I was driving from Portland to Eugene (both Oregon) in my Alfa Romeo 164 with my lovely lady Serena when "Runnin' Down a Dream" by Tom Petty came on, and Serena started to sing along, not to "Runnin' Down a Dream", but to Del Shannon's legendary hit "Little Runaway".Kevin from Memphis, TnYou can't any better than this live.The guitar solo at the end is awesome too! It's just waiting to be used for a montage in a road-trip movie. Ben from Gosford, AustraliaI loved this song when I first heard it back in 1989 as a 4 year-old, and I still think it's a great song.Thomas from Somerville, AlI don't know about best song ever but, it is definately a Petty classic.as is just about everything the man ever wrote, sang, performed.Carli from Pheonix, AzI would LOVE listening to this driving fast on the freeway, in GTA of course.Eric from Rhinelander, WiThis song appears to be about a man running down a dream that constantly eludes him.I always say to people he's "Runnin' Down A Dream." This song never gets old. But when my dog's asleep and he's dreaming, his legs start running. I believe it's about chasing your dreams. Peter from Davenport,flWhy is this song not included in the "Songs with Animated Videos" category?.Seventhmist from 7th HeavenMy favorite of his and the "Little Nemo In Slumberland" video is amazing.The dynamic beauty of the music comes through in a way it cannot when sharing space with the lyrics. Oliver Clothesoff from Over There An amazing song, but go to YouTube sometime and play the instrumental-only version.Lyrics licensed and provided by LyricFind Publisher: Gone Gator Music, Sony/ATV Music Publishing LLC Writer/s: Jeff Lynne, Michael Campbell, Tom Petty There's something good waitin' down this road The last three days the rain was unstoppable I felt so good, like anything was possible Workin' on a mystery, goin' wherever it leads It was a beautiful day, the sun beat down

Mafia 3 grecco7/2/2023 Hot Damn, feels good to win for a change!ĪDVICE: If you know where the save game directory is, make a copy of the whole directory after doing this mission because if this problem springs up again in the course of the game, assuming you have done all of the Cassandra and Burke missions, you won't be too far into the 'setup' before the 'sit down' part of the game to have it ruined for you. Of course, at the point where he crashes and the mob cars turn up its your regular massacre so my advice is to abandon the car you're in and head for any other position of security - preferably behind any other vehicle or object nearby and use a machine gun or a high precision rifle to take out the mobsters and once you have done that, only then can you go have a nice little chat with the wounded mobster you've been chasing. gotta love glitches! I finally got the little rat. I've been playing video games since 1981 (thus the name of my account) but this is pretty bad! After chasing down the little creep and this time the tires (a) not being blown out (b) Vito not climbing out of the car (c) not having cars spawn in my path (d) not have pedestrians randomly spawn in my path (e) not have the setting sun directly in my eyes so I cannot see **** and (f) the weather not being inclement so its like driving on ice.
