            &lt;p class="footer2"&gt; MooreForCecilCounty.com/&lt;/p&gt;
            &lt;p&gt;Cecil Business Leaders PAC Board of Directors feel confident that Tari possesses the knowledge and required skills to successfully implement charter government beginning December 2012.&lt;br /&gt;
            &lt;br /&gt;
            Her past experiences including those acquired in her current position of County Commissioner have prepared her for this position. Board members noted her work in Annapolis as the Cecil County representative to the Maryland Association of Counties as one of many factors that influenced their decision&lt;/p&gt;

            Alan McCarthy&lt;br /&gt;
            &lt;br /&gt;
            Dr. Alan McCarthy was part of our founding team of the Cecil Business Leaders PAC. After several weeks of learning his background and discussing his philosophies and visions for Cecil County we encouraged him to run for the District 1 Council seat. We are excited that he has decided to do so and we endorse his candidacy.&lt;/p&gt;
            &lt;/td&gt;

            Robert Hodge&lt;br /&gt;
            &lt;br /&gt;
            We have been on record since our foundation as supporting Robert Hodge for the District 5 Council seat. His actions have consistently shown support for County Commissioner decisions that encourage job growth. Cecil Business Leaders PAC are confident that when re-elected he will continue to support actions resulting in a growing economy that includes new jobs.&lt;/p&gt;

            &lt;p&gt;Cecil Business Leaders PAC proudly endorses Hon. Keith A. Baynes and&lt;br /&gt;
            Hon. Jane Cairns Murray as judges of the Circuit Court. As sitting judges, they are demonstrating the ability to make firm and fair decisions consistent with the expectations of Cecil County citizens. Both sitting judges were thoroughly vetted by several state and local bar associations, found to be qualified for the position, further approved by the Judicial Nominating Commission and appointed to their respective positions The election of judges is non-partisan. Democrats and Republicans may cast two votes for Circuit Court Judges.&lt;/p&gt;

      <summary>VSS Business Solutions created new Sunfest Website with Busness Logic.</summary>

      <description>VSS Busness Solutions saw a need to help better organize the Rising Sun Sunfest that is held annually every year on the Second Saturday of June.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This problems with events like this one other annual event performed by non-profits groups is that the folks running the event change sometime from year to year and some of the data gets lost in the shuffle.&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We developed a website (&lt;a href="http://Sunfest.us"&gt;http://Sunfest.us&lt;/a&gt;)&amp;nbsp;and a&amp;nbsp;more detailed application process for vendors and other applicants&amp;nbsp;in order to get all of the necessary data to populate a database that can be reused and viewed by&amp;nbsp;members of the committee or organizer.&amp;nbsp; This historical data can be review to better help organizing for the next years event and to help make sure no data is lost from&amp;nbsp;year to year.&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
At the same time, as we enter the data on new vendors, entertainment. etc. the vendor list and entertainment shows up to the public as well. It benifits both the Chamber Administration, promoting the vendors and informing the public the basic who, what, were and when.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

      <description>Please be careful&amp;nbsp;when recieving emails claiming they need quick response.&amp;nbsp; Most Banks and especially the IRS will send a letter in the mail rather than an email&amp;nbsp;for important communications (especially when it comes to accounts or money).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I have posted the latest example (It look real and official but notice the link to the PDF tax report&amp;nbsp;file goes to this site- &lt;a href="http://object-outlet.com"&gt;http://object-outlet.com&lt;/a&gt; : &lt;br /&gt;

&lt;/table&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: verdana,sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;"&gt;No need to file a Form SS-4. We ask you the questions and you give us the answers. After all validations are done you will get your EIN immediately upon completion. You can then download, save, and print your EIN confirmation notice.&lt;br /&gt;
This EIN is your permanent number and can be used immediately for most of your business needs, including opening a bank account, applying for business licenses, and filing a tax return by mail. However, no matter how you apply (phone, fax, mail, or online), it will take up to two weeks before your EIN becomes part of the IRS' permanent records. You must wait until this occurs before you can file an electronic return, make an electronic payment, or pass an IRS Taxpayer Identification Number matching program.&lt;br /&gt;
Due to a high volume of requests for EINs, the IRS will begin limiting the number of EINs assigned per day to a responsible party. Effective April 11, 2011, a responsible party will be limited to five (5) EINs in one business day. This limit is in effect whether you apply online, by phone, fax or mail.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

      <title>New Ecommerce Site goes live -Designer Stencils !</title>
      <summary>New Ecommerce site -Designer Stencils Website goes live!</summary>
      <link>http://HelpDesk.VSSBusinessSolutions.com/News/48/new-ecommerce-site-goes-live-designer-stencils.aspx</link>
      <pubDate>Fri, 24 Jun 2011 09:47:39 GMT</pubDate>
      <guid isPermaLink="false">newsitem48</guid>
      <description>Designer Stencils new Ecommerce website went LIVE on May 20th, 2011.&amp;nbsp; It is not just any E-Commerce site, this site had some very specific requirments in order to help streamline their business processes.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The first was a module that would mimic how they to take orders over the phone and process payments and special international shipping procedures.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;img style="width: 512px; height: 408px;" alt="Designer Stencils Phone Order module" src="http://helpdesk.vssbusinesssolutions.com/AvatarHandler.ashx?radfile=%5cCommon%5cPhoneOrderModule%2dSized%2epng" longdesc="Designer Stencils Phone Order module" /&gt;
&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;
The Next requirement was to create a QuickShip module that would allow them to scan the barcodes we implemented in the system.&amp;nbsp; After they fullfill and order they would simply scan the Order Number barcode and the Tracking barcode from USPS, UPS or FedEx and it would update the&amp;nbsp;order with the shipping status, tracking number and send email to customer with shipping status.&amp;nbsp; This module also need the ability to track orders by looking up tracking number, date or order number to get the shipping status.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Still yet they wanted to be even more efficiant and wanted to link up a POS system to the same database so VSS Business Solutions created a&amp;nbsp;bar coding system that would print labels with product SKU (both as bar code and readable text), price and name pf product.&amp;nbsp; These labels would be placed on the products in the retail shop and for shows.&amp;nbsp; Now they can simply scan each item into the POS and check out VIA the Ecommerce engine keeping all of the transaction securly (VIA SSL)&amp;nbsp;in&amp;nbsp;a single&amp;nbsp;encrypted&amp;nbsp;database.&lt;br /&gt;
