Affiliate Making Money


Citing massive irregularities and gross taxpayer funding abuses, federal investigators are recommending that government funding for ACORN’s still operating housing affiliate be cut off immediately.


Investigators must have felt it was necessary to urge the funding cutoff because the federal government’s prohibition on funding ACORN isn’t a permanent ban. It exists at the whim of lawmakers and runs out at the end of this month. This is the finding of an analysis by Capital Research Center (which has been tracking ACORN since 1998).



Investigators may also have wanted to remind the public that ACORN is still alive. Reports of ACORN’s demise continue to be churned out by misinformed journalists who  amplify the zombie group’s lies. In recent days the Washington Post incorrectly described ACORN as “a dead NGO,” and Slate said ACORN has “stopped existing.” More on this in a moment.


The Sept. 21 report from the Department of Housing and Urban Development’s Inspector General found that ACORN Housing, which changed its name earlier this year to Affordable Housing Centers of America (AHC), may have concealed fraud by destroying or failing to produce records.


ACORN violated federal rules on how grants are to be used. The group charged the government salary costs for employees after they were terminated, the report said, and violated federal procurement standards.


The report suggested ACORN corruptly funneled taxpayer dollars to its affiliates and engaged in money laundering. ACORN has taken in more than $19 million in housing counseling grants since 1995 from HUD. NeighborWorks, a congressionally chartered nonprofit, gave ACORN $25.9 million. ACORN Housing has received more than $27.3 million from other federal and non-federal sources, the report said.



The report urged HUD to force ACORN Housing to improve its record-keeping and recommended the ACORN affiliate be placed on “inactive” status while it “initiates corrective actions to address the exceptions and recommendations in this report.”


“Any organization that applies for and accepts taxpayer dollars has a responsibility to act consistently with federal law,” said Rep. Darrell Issa (R-Calif.). “It doesn’t matter if it’s ten dollars or ten thousand dollars, there is no acceptable amount of abuse or mismanagement that the federal government should tolerate when it comes to the taxpayer’s dollars.”


Issa is ranking minority member on the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee. He is expected to become chairman if Republicans win control of the House in November.


Many Americans –and some lawmakers— seem to believe Congress cut off ACORN permanently, but this belief appears to be unfounded.


This confusion about ACORN can probably be blamed in part on the quirks of parliamentary procedure and the complexity of the appropriations process. The legal language prohibiting the funding is contained in spending legislation that covers only the federal government’s current fiscal year which ends this Sept. 30. The House and the Senate first passed legislation banning funding for ACORN in fall 2009 after undercover videos showed ACORN Housing employees offering activists James O’Keefe and Hannah Giles “how to” advice on establishing a brothel, defrauding the government and banks, and evading other laws.


Mass media news reports rarely explain details of spending bills, such as when the fiscal year they cover comes to an end. But the fact that the funding ban is not permanent was noticed by ACORN lawyers and Judge Roger J. Miner of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit. Miner wrote the court’s opinion in August that overturned Judge Nina Gershon’s perverse ruling that the funding ban was an unconstitutional “bill of attainder” that punished ACORN without a trial.


Public Law 111-68, signed by President Obama on Oct. 1, 2009, is formally known as “An Act making appropriations for the Legislative Branch for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2010, and for other purposes.” [emphasis added] Section 163 of the Act reads: “None of the funds made available by this joint resolution or any prior Act may be provided to the Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now (ACORN), or any of its affiliates, subsidiaries, or allied organizations.”


Similar de-funding language was included in other spending bills signed into law by President Obama that followed in the weeks after. All those bills covered federal spending only for the fiscal year ending Sept. 30, 2010. (See Section 427 of Public Law 111-88; Division A – Section 418, Division B – Section 534, and Division E – Section 511 of Public Law 111-117; Section 8124 of Public Law 111-118.)


Plans to extend the funding ban are in the works in Congress. Section 417 of the Transportation-HUD appropriations bill for fiscal 2011 (S.3644) would prohibit funding of ACORN in the fiscal year that begins Oct. 1, 2010. It’s very unlikely that the bill will become law by Oct. 1 but Congress may also extend the funding ban in new stopgap spending legislation – though there’s no guarantee that will happen.


Then there’s lazy reporting that may have also added to public confusion.


Most reporters uncritically accepted ACORN’s false claim to have shut down earlier this year despite abundant evidence to the contrary. ACORN said it dissolved its national structure on April Fool’s Day, yet the group continues to operate out of its headquarters in Brooklyn. Two weeks after the alleged shutdown Chief Organizer Bertha Lewis sent out a fundraising letter boasting that “ACORN is alive because you are alive and still fighting for justice.” Lawyer Arthur Z. Schwartz is still representing ACORN. He sent a letter June 9 to the Government Accountability Office (GAO) demanding changes to a report on his client.


Both ACORN operative Nathan Henderson-James and ACORN hagiographer John Atlas have admitted the shuttering of the ACORN network is a sham. Issa’s investigators also reported that Lewis has been busy consolidating and hoarding ACORN’s assets. ACORN reportedly has $10 million in property and $20 million in cash in 800 bank accounts. Like grifters who adopt new aliases in order to keep duping victims, ACORN chapters in 13 states and the District of Columbia have incorporated themselves under new names. Many of the “new” re-branded groups have the same employees and board members and addresses as the old ACORN chapters.


That’s a lot of activity for a group that’s dead.



The players, who are going through workouts, batting practice and the game itself, are all afflicted by bumps, bruises and injuries of some sort.  There is not a single player that isn’t hurting and/or tired by the time the stretch run comes around. 


How much do you think minor league ballplayers make?  Sure, early-round draft picks make big bonuses, but after that, everyone might as well be selling popcorn at the stadium for how much they get in salary. 


Where am I going with this?  There are so many players trying to make it to the majors and fringe major leaguers fighting just to keep their jobs.  Those that have a fairly stable spot in the majors, still have the battle to make more money and gain recognition along with winning awards and championships. 


It takes so much more than talent to be successful in baseball.  Players have to be able to stay consistent through the everyday grind and avoid major injury.    


Along came steroids.  Here’s a drug that will help your body recover through the long grind of a season, increase strength and muscle and improve baseball performance.  That helps players to get to the majors, stay in the majors and make more money.  Oh, and everyone is doing it, so if you don’t, the playing field is tilted against you.  Good luck making it to the major leagues, young prospect, and good luck staying there, crafty veteran. 


I almost forgot to mention, baseball is the one sport where you can do steroids and get away with it!  They won’t even test you!


Of course, there are a plethora of short-term side effects and long-term health risks that arise with steroids that still make them wise to turn down.


I don’t know who originally said this but it makes sense: “If you could take a shot or a pill to earn more money at your job wouldn’t you do it?”  Baseball players are constantly in the spotlight and are under immense pressure to perform at the highest level. 


My intent is not to apologize for the players, but just to present their reasoning.  Barry Bonds, Roger Clemens and Mark McGwire are the faces of the steroid era for their record-breaking performances, but there were plenty of unidentified users during that time period who in some way owed their jobs to the juice. 


It’s a sad commentary on that time, and it’s refreshing to see some signs that the era is over.  There have been six no-hitters in 2010, including Roy Halladay’s postseason no-no on Wednesday.  According to Baseball-Reference.com, this season featured the lowest ERAs in each league since 1992 and fewest home runs per game since 1993.  The purists are thrilled, but those who grew up in the homer-happy era might start pining for the long ball sometime soon.

The more companies you join, the more money you earn- obviously, I'm sure you knew that. So sign up with as many companies as you could find. I recommend you get a free email account to be used only for surveys or else your inbox is going to be a mess mixed in with your other emails - BIG HEADACHE trust me. There are a variety of ways you can search for these companies, I'll start you off; type in " Market research panel " in your browser search box, I recommend using "Google" that should get you going. Now lets talk a little about Focus Groups. Focus groups are similar to online surveys except with focus groups you're not alone... yup you guessed it, you're in a group. This could be an online group or an offline group( in person) in a facility near your town. Focus groups pay you even more, ranging anywhere between $50 - $150 for 1-2 hr sessions, maybe more if you're lucky.

TIP: Once you activate your account with these companies, they will have a profile section for you to fill out... MAKE SURE YOU FILL IT OUT. This is how they get to know you and decide which type of surveys to send you. If you don't fill it out it you might not get survey invitations at all. Also, before every survey they give you a pre-survey questionnaire to see if you qualify for their survey. They dont want you to be a part of a market research or advertising company- so choose "no" for everything related to advertising.

2.) Affiliate Programs: There are many affiliate programs out there that pay you every time someone clicks on their advertisement and that click ends up in a sale. This advertisement is placed on your website or blog- this could be in the form of a banner or text link. This type of program is called "Pay-Per-Sale". You are paid a commission when someone clicks on their link or banner which is placed on your website or blog, and the person actually purchases a product from them. When searching for affiliate programs, try not over do it; you might want to sign up with thousands, but just try a few at a time and see how it works out for you. The other one is PPL or Pay -Per -Lead. In a pay per lead agreement, the advertiser only pays for leads if the person you referred to their website, signs-up, enters his/her contact info- email address etc. No payment is made for people who don't sign up. Searching for these programs isn't difficult. Also Google has a program called "GoogleAdsense" for publishers of websites or blogs. Click this GoogleAdsense link to more. To get you started here are a few links www.affiliatebot.comwww.roirocket.com and www.clickbank.com

TIP
: To give your website or blog plenty exposure and get alot of people to click on your ad for a higher probability of making a sale, you have to get your website or blog out there into the world wide web. This can be done by submitting your website or blog address (URL) to search engines. Google and Yahoo are the 2 top dogs for this. You can join social networks and make some new friends that way; give them a link to your site. Besides the usual Myspace check out this site here Rotatrixfriends

3.) Referrals: With this method of making money, It's all about the referrals. You can refer people with the affiliate link that your affiliate partner provided you with. Also, some survey companies have referral programs - so be on the lookout for that.Remember, the key to making money here is referrals. Refer your friends, you'll make money and they'll make money referring their friends and so on and so on. The more people you refer the more money you make- So make some new friends. Here are a few links to companies that offer referral programs. Hits4pay.comSendMoreInfo.com
