			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I love the first days of the month. It means I&#8217;ve closed the books on whatever I billed in the previous 30 days and I&#8217;m starting all over again. This month it also means the start of my blogathon, A Post a Day in the Month of May, which is already generating a lot of buzz.</p>
<p>Usually the first of the month also means I have some new stories out in various magazines and Websites.</p>
<p>This month, I&#8217;ve got a feature story in <strong>Oregon Business</strong> magazine about local manufacturers who&#8217;ve chosen not to move their factories offshore. It&#8217;s called &#8220;Made in Oregon&#8221; and you can read it <a href="http://www.oregonbusiness.com/.docs/action/detail/rid/32605/pg/10003">here</a>.</p>
<p>I also wrote a piece for <strong>IncTechnology.com</strong> about cell phone service price wars. Did you know you can buy all-you-can-talk service for $99 from all the major cell carriers? Read more <a href="http://technology.inc.com/telecom/articles/200805/wireless.html">here</a>.</p>
<p>IncTechnology.com is also running a slide show I wrote called <a href="http://technology.inc.com/multimedia/slideshows/content/no-more-paper.html">&#8220;No More Paper,&#8221;</a> that explains how small businesses can cut down on the amount of office paper they use. I&#8217;ve written a couple slide shows for IncTechnology.com. Think of them as short stories told in 50-word increments.</p>
<p>You&#8217;ll think twice before sending a dirty joke to a co-worker after reading <a href="http://www.yoursecurityresource.com/articles/leading_to_firing/index.html">this story</a> I wrote about dumb things that can get you fired, for a Website called <strong>YourSecurityResource.com</strong>.</p>
