It's time for bed, mom!
By Seleen S. Collins
Mothers know that letting a child skip nap time is a bad idea. Crankiness and meltdowns are sure to follow. But what about their own sleep habits? Are mothers getting the amount of sleep they need to function well at home and at work? Chances are, the answer is no. In fact, sleep deficiency has become so common (affecting 25 percent of U.S. adults) that the government has launched a public health initiative to address it.

The small business strategy guide to Google AdWords
Word Stream
Promoting products and services while trying to compete with mega giants like Amazon and Walmart is often a daunting task for small-business owners. The good news is that Google AdWords has created a way for advertisers to do just that. Bigger brands may have an advantage when it comes to PPC but they don't hold all the cards. Even with a small budget, you can get impressions and clicks on Google with a smart account structure and the right targeting options.
Content is fire and social media is gasoline
LinkedIn
You know what happens when most companies launch a new, branded mobile application or other content-rich marketing program intended to effectively combine information and promotion and set the world ablaze with a viral sensation?
