Along with former Olympian Don Schollander, I enjoyed reviewing some of the great moments of the Beijing Olympics.

Will Your Content Change the Internet Weather?
Content delivery firms have forecast that the Internet and Web 2.0 will crumble under the weight of personal video content. But the Olympics didn't dent it and millions watched the games around the globe. It is resilient...and self-healing.

During the Beijing Olympics, beach volleyball players Misty May-Treanor and Kerri Walsh were undefeated in their second gold medal Olympics, with an amazing record of 108 consecutive wins.

Build Prosperity and Strong Relationships With L.O.V.E
I had the honour recently of interviewing Evelyn Tian. Evelyn is a Singaporean woman living in Australia. She shared a story that started with volunteering to pack and send envelopes for the 2000 Olympics Committee here in Australia 10 years ago. That simple act of giving lead to an amazing trail of events that lead to her becoming the African Attache for the Olympics and Para-Olympics. This started Evelyn on an incredible journey to Africa for 6 months where she worked with disabled women and children, introducing wheelchair sports and fund raising for home made wheelchairs. She is now working toward helping disabled orphans in Africa.

Some of these people you and I could beat in at least a dozen parlor games, but in their specialty, they are the tops in the world. So that begs the question: What is the specialty that the mobile home park industry has to offer? What can it alone focus on and excel at?
