Introduction
Publicity and press releases are something that most web businesses know little or nothing about. Sure, they know how to use Free-For-All Link pages or search engines, or banner advertising. They don’t know and don’t want to know anything about free publicity.
If you are serious about success, then you need to learn the methods that people have used to become successful throughout the last few decades and quit hoping for a “Quick-Fix” to appear on the web. One of these proven success models is to learn how to use free publicity to help you become famous, sell more products and services, and build your business without having to spend money on advertising.
The majority of the information I have learned about publicity came from Paul Hartunian and his Free Publicity course (available at my other site http://www.instantpublicity.com). He is considered the premier Free Publicity trainer in the world today.
If you want to promote your web site without having to spend any money on advertising, then talk to Paul Hartunian.

A feasible asset allocation framework for the post 2008 financial world
Asset allocation has long been a cornerstone of prudent investment management; however, traditional allocation plans failed investors miserably in 2008. Asset allocation still remains an essential part of the investment arena, and through a new approach, you’ll discover how to make it work.
In The New Science of Asset Allocation, authors Thomas Schneeweis, Garry Crowder, and Hossein Kazemi first explore the myths that plague this field then quickly move on to examine how the practice of asset allocation has failed in recent years. They then propose new allocation models that employ liquidity, transparency, and real risk controls across multiple asset classes.
Outlines a new approach to asset allocation in a post-2008 world, where risk seems hidden
The “great manager” problem is examined with solutions on how to capture manager alpha while limiting downside risk
A complete case study is presented that allocates for beta and alpha
Written by an experienced team of industry leaders and academic experts, The New Science of Asset Allocation explains how you can effectively apply this approach to a financial world that continues to change.
