Redondo Beach, CA (ContentDesk) February 10, 2004--"The impact of the Latino Speakers Bureau in the U.S. market proves to us every day that our idea to promote Latinos with great personal stories of success is indeed one whose time has come", says Leonor McCall-Rodriguez, President and founder of the Latino Speakers Bureau. "We will announce a second group of Hispanic speakers in the Spring of 2004."In early 2003, while working on a business plan for Carlos Cuauhtemoc Sanchez, the best selling Mexican author, McCall-Rodriguez performed an evaluation of the speaking industry and realized that there was a need for a dedicated Bureau in the U.S. that could handle the marketing and public relations needs of successful Latinos. "I kept asking myself: What do a mountaineer, a Doctor in Astronautics and a financial expert have in common? And the answer was that they were all successful Latinos with a great personal story to share", she explains.A 20 year veteran of marketing and advertising for Fortune 500 companies in the U.S.
and Mexico, McCall-Rodriguez had met many successful Latino speakers during her career, experts in different fields. She soon realized that there was an unheard message that deserved to be shared in the community. "My initial thought behind the creation of the Latino Speakers Bureau was to make these Hispanic speakers available to our youth, so that their message would be an inspiration to push forward, stay in school and learn about what it takes to succeed in real life terms. Hearing a Latino who has ?made it' share his personal story is indeed a life-changing, thought provoking experience that I knew was needed," she says. Listening to these Hispanic speakers also sends a message to adults.
Being a second generation Latina, she personally understands the determination, hard work and personal sacrifice that immigrants who pursue the American dream put forward. "My own immigrant father taught us about coming to the U.S. to work in the fields and sleeping on a burlap sack, exhausted every night but driven by a dream. For someone who is working hard every day to achieve a better life for himself and for his family, hearing about the journey of a peer to the top is a message of hope and inspiration. It is proof that anyone can get there and that is why we feel that this Bureau is breaking new ground every day", she explains.
The Latino Speakers Bureau brings together many Hispanic keynote Speakers and motivational experts, such as Louis Barajas, Dr. Camilo Cruz, Joachim de Posada, Pegine Echevarria, Carlos Carsolio, Jimmy Cabrera, Olympian Ruben Gonzalez and many other experts in diverse professional areas, who are available for speaking events and seminars in the U.S. and around the world."I am fortunate to work with so many positive, enthusiastic Latinos every day. I know the power that this collective energy brings to my day and I am enthused by the response we have had from Fortune 500 companies and organizations to this opportunity to use these English and Spanish speaking professionals for their meetings, seminars and Hispanic Heritage events," she concludes.For additional information, reservations, demo videos and speaker kits, contact Leonor McCall-Rodriguez.Mira Promo is a California Hispanic Business and Marketing agency.

Why You Can't Do Without A Car Audio Crossover
I've heard the question asked many times before, 'Do I really need a crossover?' Without wasting any time I quickly answer, 'Yes you do'. Whether it's a passive crossover or an active crossover, your car audio system will never sound good without a crossover. I want to make myself very clear here, so before you get confused let's talk about what a car audio crossover is and why you need one.A crossover is a filtering device which limits the frequencies that reach a speaker. It splits a music signal into separate frequency ranges and sends them to speakers that are designed to best reproduce each frequency range. For instance, only high frequencies would be sent to your tweeters, midrange to your mid range speakers, and lows to your subwoofer.
The passive crossover is very common. It's basically a capacitor or coil installed on the speaker leads between amplifier and speaker that stops certain frequencies from reaching a speaker. It's relatively inexpensive and easy to install...

Installation may mean adding new features or replacing the stock audio system. You can customize the stock audio system of your car by replacing the stereo, speakers and amplifier with those of your choice.
Before actually starting the installation task, double-check that you are in ready possession of the needed tools, like screwdrivers, wire stripper, crimper, wiring ties, butt splices, the dash bit, etc. In some cases, you may require an antenna adapter.

Six Keys to Booking the Perfect Speakers in 2006
(ContentDesk) January 9, 2006 -- For meeting and event planners with programs that will include paid, outside speakers in 2006, The Speakers Group, a speakers bureau based in Nashville, Tennessee, offers six simple keys to help ensure successful bookings in the New Year:1. Dont consider speakers or entertainers based on your budget alone. Some speakers who appear to be more than you can afford will negotiate on price or offer additional services that will save you money on other budget line items. Also, maxing out your budget does not automatically bring the best speaker or entertainer for your specific program objectives. Obviously you cant disregard your budget altogether, but dont let it give you tunnel vision, either.2.
Always keep your audience in mind when selecting a speaker. By talking to your prospective audience members and reviewing past event evaluations, youll learn what they want. The right speaker may not be your personal favorite. Keep your audiences preferences...
