The acronym ‘PR’, as in a PR firm, stands for public relations. The agents employed by these firms specialize in marketing people like actors and radio show personalities, as well as businesses. Their assistance is helpful in making sure that a business or person makes the most of their opportunities.

One of things that a firm specializing in PR can do for you or your company is provide the local newspapers and magazines with a well-written article about who you are and what you do. Some of these publishers will put these articles into issues without enough content to fill them out, and provide you with free publicity. Having a PR agent or firm write the article makes sure that it is high quality.

If similar articles can be landed in national magazines and papers, they can make your company more popular both with customers and other businesses because of the perception of your popularity. PR

Perhaps, it’s just me but I just don’t understand the appeal that Black Friday seems to have for some Canadian shoppers. It totally makes sense for a Canadian on a visit to the US to get some Christmas shopping done but let’s list the steps involved for a Canadian resident driving across the border simply to score some Black Friday bargains:

1. Take Thursday or Friday or both days off.

2. Drive to the US border. Wait in line to clear US customs.

3. Spend money on gas, tolls (if any), lodging and meals.

4. Line up in the cold well before store opening to snag the best deals. Try and avoid any brawls that may break out.

5. Buy items on your list. Pay sales taxes (if applicable). If you are paying with a Canadian credit card, you’ll be charged a 2.5% fee on top of the applicable exchange rate.

6. Wait in line (again!) to pay taxes, duties (if applicable) at Canadian customs.

I hate shopping at Wal-Mart even on a regular weekend. For me,

Concerned about the impact of the latest 787 Dreamliner delays, JPMorgan slashed its 2011 profit projections on aerospace giant Boeing (BA) on Monday.

According to Dow Jones Newswires, JPMorgan lowered its 2011 EPS estimate by 30 cents to $4.35 a share due to the expected six-month delay in the 787 Dreamliner program.

While Boeing was expected to begin deliveries in May 2008, the program has been plagued by a number of design and supply chain problems and then earlier this month by an electrical fire during a test flight.

“We see all of these issues as fixable, and while it is hard to have confidence in any new schedule, we see a six month slide as a reasonable starting point,” JPMorgan wrote, according to Dow Jones.

RBC also issued a note on Monday predicting a six-month delay on the Dreamliner program but left its outlook unchanged and maintained its “outperform” rating, Dow Jones reported.

Shares of Boeing descended just a bit on the news, sinking 0.45% to $64.51 ahead of Monday’s opening bell. The com

Two Republican members of the Virginia House of Delegates are eyeing a pair of tax cuts with broad implications — one that would affect every mortgage borrower in the commonwealth, and one that would go to businesses that put more people to work.

The General Assembly session kicks off in Richmond Jan. 12, but House members are well into the pre-filing season. Most tax-related bills won’t survive the House, as tax hikes are taboo for the GOP-controlled body and tax cuts are often unaffordable in a down economy.

But delegates David Albo, R-Springfield, and Dickie Bell, R-Staunton, have a couple …
