Document shredding service helps prevent ID theft
Fred Smith tells the story of one area attorney whose collection of former client files became so voluminous that he was forced to lock them up in two railroad car-sized storage containers.
Although the attorney's "dead files" dilemma was bigger than most, his problem was essentially identical to nearly every business owner or consumer who doesn't know what to do with old documents: Throwing away sensitive paperwork opens the door to identify theft, a growing problem throughout the United States.
"Seven-hundred thousand people are affected by identity theft," said Smith, who along with partner Bill Nalls recently opened All Purpose Document Destruction in an industrial complex near Main Street and Highway 395 in Hesperia. "It's affecting almost all demographics you can think of.
Conference, gala promote minority business people
With help from her cousin Matt Perdue, Tarah Perdue stocked her Watchdog Document Services booth with brochures, stacks of business cards and boxes of pens inscribed with the company's bulldog mascot.“I'm here trying to meet new folks and prospective customers," said Perdue, who attended the small business conference, luncheon and networking fair on Friday's day two of the three-day Megafest held at the Trotter Convention Center, with the goal of expanding her small, Tuscaloosa-based document shredding business into Columbus. “We're members of (the Columbus-Lowndes Development) Link and we're trying to get more involved in it."Perdue and several others who attended the conference found this advice offered from Dr. Frank Wiebe, director of the Mississippi Development Authority Minority and Small Business Development Center in Tupelo - find a niche and develop a solid business plan.“What we are suggesting is you find a target market which is undeserved, or is not being served at all," said Wiebe, who noted niches can be found in either a group of products, services or people that a business owner hopes to focus on.“You can compete against the big bosses.

Increased security is key for banks
Doing your banking online? Soon you may be asked for more than just a password.
The computer may also quiz you about your mother's maiden name, what you call your dog, the first car you owned, your favorite author or your hometown.
It's all part of the tougher security requirements that federal regulators have told banks they must put in place this year to fight a surging tide of identity theft. Such crimes cost financial companies and their customers about $57 billion last year, according to Javelin Strategy & Research, a banking consultant.
Many big banks already have put more complicated access procedures into effect, while smaller banks, which usually use an outside company to run their online operations, are still working on it. Their challenge is to strike a balance between security and convenience, while holding down added costs.
Fallbrook clean up/recycling day a spectacular success
What a day September 16 was! The Fallbrook community-wide Clean Up/Recycling Day brought out hundreds of Fallbrook families and individuals who wanted to recycle their old computers, dispose of their old tires or shred long-saved personal papers.
The downtown portion of the event brought in 450 cars to the E-waste recycling area, sponsored by Bill Cox of Oceansides 1-800-GOT-JUNK? That area was so ably manned by the Senior Volunteers from the Sheriffs Department and other community organization volunteers that the whole process went like clockwork. Those cars, at times lined up two abreast all down Fig Street, dropped off 40,560 pounds of electrical equipment 18.5 tons! All those items ended up in large cardboard containers which were then moved by forklift into two huge semi-truck trailers, filling them to the brim!
Another 78 cars pulled up to the paper-shredding truck, provided by Shred-It of Vista and manned by Shred-Its Jaime Connell and Bob Leonard of the Fallbrook Chamber.
