What to do? I had deadlines, appointments and workd to get done…and my computer didn’t seem to get the memo.
It’s a sudden, unexpected event that can totally disrupt your life.
It’s like when the electricity goes out in your home, suddenly and without warning, your plans can change.

Facebook announced a series of new privacy settings in an effort to make it easier to share posts, photos, tags and other content with greater control of who sees it.
One of the nicer things about the updates is the controls are moved to your profile page, inline with posts, photos and the tags they affect. This is a welcome change from navigating the confusing settings area.
You should see post specific settings in a drop-down box right next ...]]> http://protectanddefendinc.com/facebook-revamps-privacy-settings-again/feed/ 0 http://protectanddefendinc.com/personal-protection-strategy/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=personal-protection-strategy http://protectanddefendinc.com/personal-protection-strategy/#comments Tue, 23 Aug 2011 14:05:43 +0000 David Koons http://protectanddefendinc.com/?p=696
You have to be concerned about your personal protection if you ever watch TV.
Turn on the news. Do you believe it can happen where you live?
Flash mobs, mass protests, violence in the streets and protestors running for cover.
Concerns about civil unrest due to a deteriorating economic condition are growing. It seems you can’t check out a news site, or TV news program without someone addressing the rising under-current.
There’s a lot of things that can ...]]> http://protectanddefendinc.com/personal-protection-strategy/feed/ 1 http://protectanddefendinc.com/bullying-rebecca-black-out-of-school/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=bullying-rebecca-black-out-of-school http://protectanddefendinc.com/bullying-rebecca-black-out-of-school/#comments Tue, 16 Aug 2011 13:00:00 +0000 David Koons http://protectanddefendinc.com/?p=683

Staying safe on campus takes on a new dimension during summer. While most students have returned home or otherwise left campus, some remain for summer programs or internships.
Spring Semester has ended for many Colleges and Universities. For many, it’s a time to relax and unwind. That’s fine, but don’t let your guard down.
The campus can feel like a ghost town, especially compared to having thousands walking around when school’s in session.
