			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Personally, I have not tried Guaranteach <a href="http://www.guaranteach.com/">Math Help</a> before, my article is base on my best friend&#8217;s experience when he enrolled his son to Guaranteach <a href="http://www.guaranteach.com/">Algebra Tutoring</a> services. According to him, Guaranteach has the best <a href="http://www.guaranteach.com/">Online Tutoring</a> services on the web. He tried two tutoring companies before and his son didn&#8217;t learn anything from them. But when his office mate told him about Guaranteach and how great they are, he immediately enrolled his son.

According to his Algebra teacher he&#8217;s doing great in school now.</p>
<p>I have no intentions of praising Guaranteach and their online <a href="http://www.guaranteach.com/">Algebra Help </a>and have no business with this company or whatsoever, it&#8217;s just so happen that my friend was an happy customer.

My pure and sole intention is to help those who in need of Math help.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Mitsubishi improves by two notches from 2008 to rank highest in overall new vehicle sales satisfaction in the Philippines, according to the J.D Power Asia Pacific 2009 Philippine Sales Satisfaction Index Study.</p>
<p>Now in its ninth year, the study said buyers tend to set even higher standards during an economic downturn. It measures new-vehicle owner satisfaction with sales and delivery experience and examines seven key factors that contribute to overall satisfaction. In order of importance, these factors are delivery process; delivery timing; salesperson; paperwork; deal; sales initiation; and dealer facility.</p>
<p>Mitsubishi ranks highest with a score of 841 on a 1,000-point scale, performing particularly well in the delivery process factor. Honda and Mazda, respectively, follow in the rankings, with both brands improving from 2008. Other brands performing above industry average are Chevrolet, Kia and Toyota. Overall industry satisfaction in 2009 averages 833, a 10-point decline from 2008. The factors with the largest declines from 2008 are delivery timing (down 14 points) and delivery process (down 13 points)</p>
<p>The study finds that despite an overall reduction in delivery timing down to an average of four days from 4.9 days in 2008, customers who say delivery timing is “about as expected” receive their vehicles in 3.9 days, compared with 5.4  days in 2008. Similarly, customers who receive their vehicles is “worse than expected”. This measure was considerably longer in 2008- an average of 13.7 days.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Ulead Photoimpact 10 is a terrific basic image editor. With version 10, Ulead has added a broad range of handy new features, making this program a steal at $89.99.</p>
<p>For starters, Ulead has added photo frames, 17 new effects filters (pen and Ink, cartoon, and Engraving, to name a few) and a new touch-up-tool for subtly removing image defects. Three new selection tools make it easier to work with specific areas of an image. Smart Lasso, which draws a selection border around complex objects; Extract Object, which isolates an image element from a background; and match background color, for seamlessly merging an extracted element back into the image.</p>
<p>Version 10’s interface is totally configurable, with dockable toolbars, buttons, and panels that can be dragged and dropped around the screen.</p>
<p>Ulead has retained the unusual (and clever) visual thumbnails for applying effects as well.</p>
<p>PhotoImpact is equally at home with bitmap, vector, and text objects, providing a  full range of tools for a assembling surprisingly complex documents. Digital-camera support is beefed up with a wizard for downloading images, a Browse manager to view EXIF information, and an updated High Dynamic range feature. The High Dynamic  Range tool combines multiple exposures into a single image to brighten dark areas and darken lights in high-contrast photos; it now compensates for movement between the bracketed original shots.</p>
<p>Even if there were nothing else in the box, PhotoImpact alone would be a bargain, but Ulead bundles extras like PhotoImpact Album, a decent image manager that’s beginning to show its age, and cool 360, a wizard-driven app that creates panoramas form  asset of photos.</p>
