Nearing completion on the University of Denver campus is the glitzy Alan Gerry Cable Telecommunications Building, which will house the National Cable Television Center and Museum, a nonprofit institution that's the brainchild of the late Bob Magness, founder of Telecommunications Inc. Any new building would have needed a distinctive look in order to stand up to the visually emphatic Ritchie Center so close by; luckily, this cable complex qualifies. Denver's RNL Design is responsible for the quirky structure, with its rusticated stone and eyeball windows; appropriately enough, it looks like something out of The Flintstones. And the building's future is secure -- already the museum has attracted tens of millions of dollars in donations. After all, those cable moguls can afford the best.

Hi Loveys!
What a beautiful sunny week! Joe and I were in Miami for my Fabulicious: On the Grill book signings, and then we spent the weekend at the shore with our kids playing on the beach. Our shore house is almost rebuilt -- Joe did an amazing job! -- but we still don't have a TV there. This week, I was kinda glad though, since it was not an episode I wanted my kids to watch. It's not an episode I wanted to be in!
I do really, really wish that Kathy would leave my dad out of the show. I signed up to be on a reality show, my dad didn't. He's only appeared a few times for his children, but not for himself. He wants no part of this show, he doesn't even watch it (Thank God!), and I think you can see why. When my father is filmed with us, he doesn't talk about Kathy's family, and I would love it if they would stop talking about him. If I had known 5 years ago when I signed up for a show about shopping with my friends that people were going to talk about my father's private business, I would never, ever have joined. If you want to talk about your own father on TV, be my guest. But please, stop talking about mine.

Biography of Jessica Darling
Adopted as a child, Jessica Darlin grew up in Coral Springs, Florida and went to a private school. She describes herself in her teen years as "Pretty much the little party girl. I was definitely the town nympho." For the next decade, she set about fulfilling that self-perception.
Jessica began dancing in a strip club when she turned 18 and says, "I drove by a strip club and announced to my now husband, 'I can do that'." Jessica recalls that at the age of 17 she met Luis Cypher at a concert. And after dating for a few years, the two were married when Jessica was 21 years old.
During her time dancing in the club, Jessica heard about the adult entertainment business from the various feature dancers she'd met; they had already done porn films. So when she was 21, Darlin and her husband moved to Los Angeles to break into the adult film industry. On her first visit to Jim South's (a noted porn agent) office, she had barely finished filling out the info sheet and presented her STD test results when South received a call from a director advising him that the actress he'd scheduled did not show up. Darlin, the opportunity seeker that she is, jumped at the opportunity to take part in the scene, a three-way featuring anal sex with Julie Rage and Ian Daniels for a film named Sexual Initiations.
Jessica signed with Elegant Angel after about two months in the business, but left after six months citing contractual difficulties. Darlin's contract with Elegant Angel specified that she would appear in eight scenes a month, but since she was their only contract star at the time, she spent most of her time on the road promoting the company. Her actual filming rate was about two scenes a month.
In 2000 and 2001, Jessica Darlin became a valet in the professional wrestling industry for XPW's "White Trash" Johnny Webb.
Though Jessica performed all the usual genres of porn sex, including oral, anal, and lesbian, she relates a fondness for erotic asphyxiation saying, "It's cool. It's fun. I can't breathe, so it's neat. It's just my thing."
Jessica Darlin has worked with a multitude of top co-stars in the business, for which she has achieved wide acclaim as evidenced by the following nominations and award-winning performances:
1998 - NightMoves Award - Won - Best New Starlet (Fan's Choice)
2000 - AVN Award Nominated - Best Group Sex Scene, Video (with T.T. Boy & Jewel Valmont) Asswoman: The Rebirth
2001 - Nominated - Female Performer of the Year

The Trickle-Down Effect: Children and Parent Mental Illness
"You could run from someone you feared, you could try to fight someone you hated. All my reactions were geared toward those kinds of killers, the monsters, the enemies. When you loved the one who was killing you, it left you no options. How could you run, how could you fight, when doing so would hurt that beloved one? If your life was all you had to give your beloved, how could you not give it? If it were someone you truly loved?"~ Bella Swan.
What is a child to do when mommy or daddy abuses, uses, or is dependent on drugs or alcohol?

Romo has played bad for one half of one game.
Pennington has played bad for 3/4 of the season.
See the difference?
Haha, nice.
I never liked Romo he is nothing more then a back up QB. He will be exposed just like Pennington is this season with that said I dont care he is not the QB of the Jets so who cares this belongs on the Dallas board.
Yeah, but I gotta say that Pennington looked nowhere near that bad in Buffalo. Romo has been absolutely hideous.
Just dump it

ThinkUp keeps track of your social media
Keeping Watch
Community managers, professional marketers, and active social media users want to know the effect their messages have on followers. ThinkUp can help.
Keeping track of what was said, the time of day it was said, and how the audience responded to it can be essential for marketers and community managers, and perhaps mildly interesting to the rest of us.
ThinkUp [1] is a free software platform that collects and culls data from your social media and keeps you informed of what's going on, which messages your followers find interesting, and which are duds.
ThinkUp will tell you, for example, what your most popular posts are in a given period of time, allow you to keep track of whether you are speeding up or slowing down your posts, and advise you of the best moment to post by analyzing the time of day your users react to your tweets or Facebook updates. It does all this by tracking posts and responses across a broad range of social networks, including Twitter, Facebook, Google+, Foursquare, YouTube, and more (Figure 1).

Keeping fit at Mount Stewart
We can't guarantee you'll do as well as the footman Arthur Inch, whose uniform is on display in the coach house. Working for a party, he once walked 18 miles without leaving the house once.
But there's still plenty of walking to be done. The Lake Walk is approximately one mile, and will take you about 2,400 steps. Add in a house tour (600 steps), a stroll round the formal gardens and Lily Wood (1,700 steps), and a walk up to the Temple of the Winds and back (3,000 steps), and you can enjoy that cappuccino in the Bay Restaurant guilt-free.
Fun ways to increase your workout:
- Borrow a tracker pack at reception for some fun outdoor activities, or try our Squirrel Trail.
- Try going around the Lake Walk twice, once in each direction. You'll be surprised at how many new things you notice that you didn't see before. Or take as many detours as possible, via the Rhododendron Hill, Tir na nOg, and the Woodland Walk.
- Take turns carrying a well-filled picnic bag - if you've forgotten to bring one, pre-filled picnic boxes including a piece of healthy fruit are available from the restaurant.
- Bring a ball or frisbee and play some games. Just not in the formal gardens or right by the house, please.
- Agree on a forfeit for each member of the family. For example, maybe Dad has to do five press-ups every time you see a squirrel, and Mum has to do a star jump for every duck you meet on the way.
- Invest in a pedometer to count your steps - basic models are available for less than £10 - and compete for a high score.
- Park at the far end of the car park and walk up - you'll have time to take in the view of Strangford Lough and spot a few bunnies and squirrels on the way, too.

View-killing windmills: Blame the politicians
What started with a small, 12-turbine project in Lempster in 2008 has turned into a run on New Hampshire's ridgelines by large energy companies that want to cover our hills with scores of windmills. Some of them would reach 400 feet tall, 125 feet taller than New Hampshire's tallest building, City Hall Plaza in Manchester. As the scarring of New Hampshire hilltops accelerates, the politicians who promoted this have a lot to answer for.
In 2007, the Democratic-controlled Legislature passed a bill sponsored by Sen. Martha Fuller Clark, D-Portsmouth, which created the state's Renewable Portfolio Standard (RPS). Legislators mandated that at least 16 percent of the state's energy production come from new "renewable" sources such as wind power by 2025 (25 percent from all renewable sources). Suddenly, New Hampshire needed windmills.
The law has cost more than views. Public Service of New Hampshire calculates that the RPS mandate has cost it $58.3 million since 2008. It projects another $19.2 million hit in 2013 alone. Ratepayers bear that burden.
Washington shares the blame. Federal tax credits for power produced by windmills go to huge energy corporations such as Spain's Iberdrola, the company behind several New Hampshire wind farms. A recent study by the Northbridge Group of Concord, Mass., concluded that the tax subsidy "encourages wind developers to locate wind farms with little regard to consumer demand, as long as they can be placed on line and their power brought to market to collect the subsidy," the National Center for Policy Analysis reported this week.
Do-gooders trying to force us to switch from coal to wind power have encouraged the industrialization of scenic New Hampshire ridgelines. That industrialization will not stop until these perverse government incentives are removed.

Bodycount Developer Says There Are More First-Person Shooters Than Just Call Of Duty
By admin
Posted on July 1, 2011 AT 08:42pm
Posted on July 1, 2011 AT 08:42pm
Andy Wilson, the game director of Bodycount over at Codemasters, told CVG recently that the warm reception of Epic's recently-released Bulletstorm "shows that there's a market outside of Call of Duty."
"It shows that there's room around those huge titles like Battlefield and Medal of Honor," Wilson said to CVG. "It's nice to see that you can still have multi-million-selling FPS games that are not that."

A little about me...
I care deeply about a few distinct things: I'm a political/journalism junkie- indeed that was my career for 30 years. I love to play tennis, read, listen to a variety of music, haunt art galleries & museums & have been going to the theater since I was 5 years old! I think I was also 5 when I saw my first film: "Meet Me in St. Louis" with Margaret O'Brien.
What makes me a great partner is my enthusiasm, my sense of humor, my energy, my smarts & my empathy. One of my commanding strengths: I'll go to the ends of the earth for a lover or dear friend; a basic weakness: I expect them to do the same for me.
About the one I'm looking for...
I'm hoping to meet someone who is (almost) as caring, as enthusiastic, as NICE--or nicer--than I am. And he should have a fine sense of humor. It's a cliche, all right, but having had two lover/best friends in my life, it would be awfully nice to have a third. Someone I really like as well as love. Someone who enjoys a leisurely breakfast with the newspapers (the NY Times & the Wash. Post), spread out before us. Someone who is equally satisfied traversing the world & staying home. Someone who genuinely cares about his partner; who revels in her strengths as she does in his.
I'd just like to add...
For the moment, I'll leave it with the answers I have written above. Thank you.

Eugene von Guérard: True Nature Revealed
Join conservator Michael Varcoe-Cocks as he takes us behind-the-scenes, revealing the background and conservation of key artworks in Eugene von Guérard: Nature Revealed.
Tea Trees near Cape Schanck, Victoria 1865
oil on canvas
61.1 x 91.8 cm
National Gallery of Victoria, Melbourne

Tea Trees near Cape Schanck
The Question of a Fox and Cloud
Tea Trees near Cape Schanck, Victoria, 1865 is a dramatic rendering of rugged coastline on the Mornington Peninsula, south of Melbourne. Von Guérard climbed down the precarious cliff to obtain a west-facing vantage point that included the weathered basalt outcrops cast in a golden glow of late afternoon sun.
Beyond the larger forms that progressively descend into Bass Strait is the vertical column known as the Pulpit Rock. Within months of von Guérard completing this picture, the Illustrated Sydney News printed a tourist's account of Cape Schanck which noted:
'An eagle's family have for years occupied its loftiest and most inaccessible points [of the Pulpit Rock], and enjoy the repose of undisturbed solitude; their shrill cry and lofty flight add greatly to the wild sublimity of the ocean, which rolls and dashes its billows against the base-of the rock.'
Although von Guérard had the chance to observe the wedge tail eagle he included in this picture, the accompanying European fox could not have been present. Australia's fox population is known to have been founded for the purpose of recreational hunting in 1871, six years after the painting was completed.
However von Guérard's inclusion of this foreign species was a topical one. A public debate involving the Acclimatisation Society and the Melbourne Hunt Club and the opposing voices of concerned citizens appeared in Melbourne newspapers directly before or even during the period von Guérard was painstakingly working on the picture in his Melbourne studio.
But if the fox is an invention to explore a narrative, the rendering of topography and its vegetation is typically faithful and based on direct observations recorded in detailed drawings and oil studies done on location.
A photo I have taken of this site makes for an interesting comparison.
When Tea Trees near Cape Schanck, Victoria, 1865 was acquired by the NGV in 2006, I became fixated on a cloud that lifted vertically from the main form in an unusual manner. My suspicion was that this feature was probably added by a restorer. An initial technical examination failed to ease my mind and it was only in the lead up to the Eugene von Guérard: Nature Revealed exhibition that an opportunity to address the issue in more detail arose.
Examination of the painting's surface with ultraviolet light revealed minor sections of recent restoration but did not differentiate the suspicious cloud from its original surroundings. Likewise, elemental analysis to determine the use of pigments could not conclusively date its application.
The image below shows a portion of this region as seen through a stereo-microscope regularly used for work on paintings in the NGV's painting conservation department. It gives an indication of the complex but beautiful surfaces conservator's endeavour to understand.

As is regularly the case, an x-radiograph was the most informative method of analysis. A loss of original paint directly below the cloud (appearing as a dark passage in the x-ray) had seemingly motivated a nineteenth century restorer to conceal its presence by adding to von Guérard's cloud.
This 'repair' had been applied with oil paint and was now sufficiently old as to make it chemically indistinguishable from von Guérard's own oil colour. Because of this similarity, the employment of chemicals to remove the restorer's addition would place the underlying paint at an unacceptable risk. Instead the over-paint was delicately removed using a small scalpel under the stereo microscope to eventually uncovering the rather modest loss. The area was then filled and retouched using pigments bound in a synthetic media and without the need of any change to the original composition.
The comparative images below show the cloud as seen before treatment, the x-ray and the painting following conservation treatment.

Honeysuckles, Cape Schanck
The small intermit study Honeysuckles, Cape Schanck, 1873 is an example of the oil sketches von Guérard painted in the landscape before his motif. Although the act of painting outdoors is more popularly associated with the later Impressionist movement, landscape artists from the eighteenth century had increasingly incorporated plein air studies as part of their preparation for final studio works.
Von Guérard was introduced to this practice during the 1830 and 40s while a student in Italy, and later at the Düsseldorf Academy in Germany – at that time, he would have been required to carry freshly prepared oil paint to the landscape using temporary containers made from skin bladders bound with string.
The subsequent invention of collapsible metal tubes by the English artist's colour man Windsor and Newton provided a readily transportable commercial product suitable for distribution to remote colonies. After von Guérard's arrival in Australia, the supply of the new 'Artist colours, in tubes' was still limited, but once procured they allowed him to paint on extended expeditions into the Australian landscape.
Rather than transporting bulky stretched canvases, he prepared his own painting supports by covering sheets of paper with a preparation layer formulated from lead white oil paint and chalk. The sheets were lightweight, flexible and easily transportable. Their surface was designed to be slightly absorbent to draw excess oil from the paint to accelerate its drying and allow a safe return to von Guérard's Melbourne studio. Although the preparation layer was concealed by paint, the vertical striations created during its brushed application are visible in the x-radiograph of Honeysuckles, Cape Schanck, 1873 shown below.

In the landscape, von Guérard cut his paper supports to a desired format, pinning them onto a board or the lid of his paint box to act as an in situ easel. Note the irregular cut edges to this narrow elongated sheet and the pin holes visible in the top-left and lower right corners of the x-ray.
Honeysuckles, Cape Schanck, 1873 was painted on top of windswept seaside cliffs that bordered a property where von Guérard stayed with close friends. It is a careful study of the local colour and vegetation at a specific place and time.
Inscribed in the top right is the date telling us that he painted this work on Sunday 18 January, 1873. Newspaper reports from that day recorded unusually hazy conditions and a hot northerly air flow which hampered local shipping. The overriding influence of moist sea air accounts for the suppressed tonality and subdued colour in the delicate brushwork, having forced von Guérard to forego the deep blue sky typical of his pictures.
Unfortunately most of von Guérard's Australian plein air studies have not survived. This rare example is an important insight to his working method and the fieldwork undertaken to produce his major compositions such as Tea Trees near Cape Schanck, Victoria 1865 which will be discussed in the next post.

Tower Hill 1855
oil on canvas

Warrnambool Art Gallery, Victoria
On loan from the Department of Sustainability and
Gift of Mrs E. Thornton, 1966
Tower Hill
Early in August 1855, Eugene von Guérard was travelling by steamer towards his Melbourne home, returning from an extended sketching tour through South Australia. On 3 August, he disembarked west of Warrnambool at Portland Bay, and within three days he had travelled approximately 100km to the north. From here – at the top of Mount Rouse – he made his first sketch of the Grampians mountain range. We can retrace these movements by studying one of the sketchbooks that he took with him to record views of his journey. In the collection of the State Library of New South Wales' Mitchell Library this entire book can be viewed here Von Guérard then retraced his steps back to the coast, passing through a sheep station known as Kangatong. The owner of this property was James Dawson, who also had a residence and commercial interests near Port Fairy. Dawson commissioned von Guérard to paint a view of the nearby extinct volcano known as Tower Hill.
In order to undertake the painting in his Melbourne studio, von Guérard would have made a large detailed drawing and possibly colour studies of this scene over 9 and 10 August, before continuing his homeward voyage by steamer. Within two days of his return on 12 August, he had prepared a blank canvas and was ready to begin the painting, presumably acting with haste to ensure its completion and reimbursement with Dawson.
During an examination of the picture in the NGV's conservation department, an interesting artefact was revealed hidden on the back of the painting's timber stretcher. Typical of his fastidious mind, von Guérard recorded in pencil a calendar that counted the consecutive days required to fulfil the task.
Beginning with Sunday, the seven columns divide the days of the week for each row. An 'X' marks the first day of painting on Wednesday 15 August, 1855. At the end of each week, a circled number tallies the accumulative days on the project to date until its final completion 52 days later on Friday 5 October, 1855. Prior to applying paint to his blank canvas, von Guérard carefully drew out the composition of Tower Hill in pencil. Although the drawing is hidden below the paint layer, it can be successfully imaged with infrared radiation as shown in this comparative example:
The importance of imaging this underdrawing for the interpretation of von Guérard's work will be discussed in subsequent posts.
In 1892, the volcano and crater lark became Victoria's first National Park. In 1966, Tower Hill was gifted by James Dawson's granddaughter to the Department of Sustainability and Environment, and was later used as a historical document to inform the revegetation of Tower Hill.

I am very new to kegging. In fact, my experience is limited to this keg for which I have questions. These are the steps I followed:
1. Naturally carbed my Simple Hefeweizen with 2.5oz corn sugar (mixed into a simple syrup and mixed in my bottling bucket prior to transferring to the keg.
2. Used the 12g hand CO2 dispenser on my ball-lock to ensure a properly sealed keg
3. Waited 3 weeks in my 68F basement.
4. Attached my short picnic tap (about 1').
5. Served test sample at 68F.
It comes out all foam. It settles back to beer, but naturally without any carbonation. How do I fix this? Do I bleed pressure off using my pressure relief valve? If so, how much? Do I chill it down to serving temp and hope that the CO2 goes into solution better?
Please assist a fledgling kegger!
Caveat: I have no keg fridge/keezer or anything right now, I would have to either wait for an opportunity to buy one or chill the keg in an ice bath and drink all 5 gallons in one sitting (not a horrible option, just makes for a hell of a hangover...).
Well, I hate to break it to you...but, you are going to need to chill that keg or make a jockey box.
First thing I would do is check to make certain there is pressure (Pull the relief slightly), (Hopefully you leak checked it after you filled it?) then I would lay that sucker on it's side and thrash it around for a while to make certain the CO2 is absorbed, do it again the next day or just every time you walk by or think about it. Then I would try a longer tap hose for one, like 6' to 10'. The entire problem may be that it's still warm? You could also just pull the relief until pressure is manageable, then pour one, your natural carb action should maintain enough pressure to dispense, like a cask ale. I naturally carb my kegs all the time but have never served one at room temp.
You could rig a simple jockey box if you have more tubing, otherwise it would take a long time and alot of ice to cool a keg without a fridge, speaking of the fridge, just throw out all the unneccessary stuff from your fridge, like food, milk, etc and put the keg in there. You're still gonna need a longer hose though.
Newer, better, more streamlined sig as per the forum police.
That keg's going to have to be cold for the C02 produced by fermentation carbonation to dissolve into the liquid. When I do a keg this way I let it sit at room temperature for a couple of weeks, then chill it down for a day or two, then tap it and drink. Little to no foam, nice carbonation.
Thanks everybody for the quick feedback. I guess I am going to have to convince SWMBO to let me buy my chest freezer and temp control early!
You didn't say that you attached CO2 pressure to serve the beer. If carbonated, some will come out but you'll need constant pressure to serve the whole tank.
Btw, I'm a step behind you. I'm about to try kegging for the first time this weekend and I'm trying to decide if I should naturally carb while I order keezer parts at reasonable prices online, or support my LHBS and pay 30% more so I can force carb now.
Edit: I see that you wrote this over a month ago. How did it turn out?
Sorry to revive/hijack an old topic.
I am doing my first batch and will be carbing my beer through natural pressure. I need to upgrade the keg to one fitted with a co2 vent cap, and I don't have a keg fridge.
I couldn't see a natural carbing sticky, and have scoured the internet but couldn't find the answer to the following questions. (It seems most posts are about co2 carbing).
1. How much sugar will I need to prime the keg? (Coopers English Bitter + 500g light spray malt)
2. How can i improve the pressure in the keg aside from putting vaseline on the seal?
3. Any tips on how to improve the carb of the beer through natural pressure during any part of the process?
4. Without a fridge how can I combat any problems?
Many thanks!

How to Change Your System Folder Name
If you have purchased a secondhand computer from a friend or family member, you may find that you see her name when you log on. Although Windows gives you the ability to change user names at will, folders storing your documents, images and other files will still bear the incorrect name. When you attempt to change the name of the folder, Windows tells you that you cannot change the name of a system folder. Create a new account and copy your files over to the new system folder to resolve this issue.
Things You'll Need
- Windows XP, Windows Vista or Windows 7
Click the "Start" button; then click "Control Panel." Double-click "User Accounts." If you do not see this option, click "Classic View" in Windows XP and Vista, or "View by: Small Icons" in Windows 7.
Click "Create a New Account" in Windows XP. In Windows Vista and 7, click "Manage Another Account;" then click "Create a New Account."
Enter a name and password for your new account, and click "Next" through the prompts to create it.
Log out of Windows; then log back in using an account other than your old account or the new one you created.
Click the "Start" button; then click "My Computer" in Windows XP, or click "Computer" in Windows Vista or Windows 7.
Click "Tools;" then click "Folder Options" in Windows XP. In Windows Vista and Windows 7, click "Organize;" then click "Folder" and "Search Options."
Click the "View" tab. Click the radio button labeled "Show Hidden Files and Folders," and remove the check from the box labeled "Hide Protected Operating System Files." Click "OK."
Double click "C:" or the hard drive where Windows is installed. Double-click "Documents and Settings" in Windows XP, or "Users" in Windows Vista and Windows 7. Double-click the folder with the user name that you would like to remove.
Hold down the "Ctrl" key on the keyboard. Click the files "NTUSER.DAT," "ntuser.dat.log" and "ntuser.ini." All of these files should now be highlighted. In Windows Vista and Windows 7, you may additionally see the files "ntuser.dat.log1" and "ntuser.dat.log2." Click these as well.
Hit "Alt," "E" and "I" on the keyboard simultaneously. This is the Invert Selection keyboard shortcut---all files and folders except the ones that you previously clicked should now be highlighted. Hit "Ctrl" and "C" simultaneously, and click the "Back" button to back out of the folder.
Double-click the folder with the new name that you created. Click anywhere inside the window, and hit the "Ctrl" and "V" keys. The contents of the old folder will be copied into the new one. You may need to click through messages to indicate that you wish to overwrite the contents of the new folder.
Log out of Windows, and log in using your new user name. Confirm that all of your files are where they should be; then return to the "User Accounts" screen using the instructions above.
Click "Change an Account" in Windows XP, or "Manage Another Account" in Windows Vista and Windows 7. Click the old account; then click "Delete the Account." Click "Delete Files;" then click "Delete Account."

Smart Shoppers
Madison-area consumers are patronizing innovative, independent retailers who provide quality, affordability and value.
A study by L.E.K. Consulting shows affluent consumers, those with annual incomes above $150,000, are the only ones spending more today than before the recession. They're also the only group planning to increase spending in the near future, and an L.E.K. executive believes the findings show wealthy consumers' spending is pulling the U.S. out of the recession.
But Blake George, principal at Lee & Associates, and Mike Herl, vice president of brokerage services for Inland Companies, both of which provide commercial real estate services, don't see ultra-wealthy spenders as the major driver of Dane County's retail market.
Even in the best of times, Dane County didn't have a tremendous amount of very high-end retail, George opines. "In other markets it's a bigger part of their economies," he says. "We're smart about how we spend our money—people do a lot of research before they buy—and I see that trend continuing."
Those with money aren't necessarily going out on spending sprees, Herl agrees. "I see them investing in businesses, doing angel lending and things like that to stimulate growth. So in those ways people with money are the ones who will stoke the flames to get the overall economy going."
Affordable Products
And when it comes to upper-to middle-income consumers, quality and value are the keys. "The two have to go together," George emphasizes. "For instance, Don's Home Furniture has done very well through the recession."
The store's primary target demographic is women aged 30–50 who are employed and have discretionary income, and are very educated buyers, he notes. "They know they're getting great value from the $500 they spend on a dinette set," he says. "They could spend $1,000 somewhere else, but would they really get enough additional value to justify it? If they see value they'll remain loyal and be repeat customers."
These consumers, unless directly and dramatically affected by the recession, have continued to spend, but at a slower pace. "They may not reserve the presidential cabin on a cruise, but they may take two lower-priced trips," says George. "It's the same with the products they're buying. They may still go to Chalmers Jewelers, but they'll spend $200 instead of $1,000."
He's seeing more new retail tenants with affordable products for which there's still a strong consumer demand, but fewer with high-end discretionary products. "And retailers of discretionary items are changing their product lines and moving into more affordable items," George continues. "A jeweler might advertise '200 products under $200.' Maybe instead of marketing a two-karat diamond ring they'll market a half-karat one with eight baguettes that make it look like two karats. Retailers have gotten savvier to survive or have closed up."
Online Shopping
One savvy technique Herl is seeing is smaller storefronts and an increased focus on Internet sales. "Online shopping is here to stay, especially when people are familiar with the products and don't need to go out and take a look at them," he says. "People are doing a lot more comparative shopping, and even if they end up buying at a store, they often do online research first."
And adding web-based shopping can help retailers cut costs. "If your sales increase through your online channel, you can get volume discounts through your suppliers and it helps your brick-and-mortar outlet too," says George. "It gives clients another way to reach you—with our aging population, people want that convenience."
Independent Local Businesses
Another trend Herl has observed is more independent, locally owned businesses moving in and national chains moving out. "That's where the majority of the action is these days," he says. "Corporate stores have pulled way back and are trying to ride the economy out, while entrepreneurs are the ones coming up with new ideas."
The same thing happened about nine years ago, he notes. "And then we went through a huge stage of corporate franchise stores coming in—the retail community went from 80 percent mom-and-pop shops to more than 80 percent nationals or repeat franchisees," he says. "But since the market has fallen off, a tremendous number of people have lost their jobs, or they've taken early retirement and have a little cash to play with, and are opening small businesses."
Entrepreneurs are signing shorter, one- or two-year leases and taking the plunge, George affirms. "They can get into space cheaper now and put a lot of sweat equity into a business," he says. "It could be someone who lost a job at a computer company opening a computer repair business, or someone who always wanted to own a restaurant starting one—necessity is the mother of invention."
People in Dane County like to buy local, notes George. "And this entrepreneurial trend gives them more choices. The increased competition will lead to better prices and hopefully better service."
Sidebar: Synergy Attracts Shoppers
Visitors to the Hatchery Hill Towne Center in Fitchburg can rent a movie at Blockbuster, stop for a cup of coffee at Panera or a burger and a beer at the Great Dane, buy a bouquet at Buffo Floral and a card at Sue's Hallmark, shop for groceries at Copps, and more. "When people park here, they can go around to all the shops and find pretty much anything, says Mike Herl, vice president of brokerage services for Inland Companies, which manages the center from its on-site office.
Herl does all the leasing at Hatchery Hill. "With the sheer variety at this mixed-use center—retail, a large office component and the third-floor apartments—we're 92 percent full," he says. "We look for synergy among tenants, targeting those we think will it well among the others here."
The center stayed mostly full throughout the recession, with a few businesses coming and going. "We work with our people here," says Herl. "If we know a good tenant's industry has been hard hit, we like to see what we can do to help provide short-term relief."
Like most retailers, those at Hatchery Hill have cut back a bit on inventory and are focusing on what's popular with their customers.
"There's more attention to customer service," Herl notes. "A retailer might do a special order for a customer and call them when it arrives. They've gotten a little leaner and smarter."

PS to OP Comments:The crime statistics being manipulated were primarily those of juvenile minority offenders. The Baker Act was used as a means to characterize crimes as mental health issues, keep them out of the law enforcement system (including the Miami-Dade School Districts own police department), and assure that the records were sealed.When Trayvon Martin was shot, attempts to get his school records and any police records were thwarted at every turn.No one should think that this cannot happen in their community schools. MDSD is a big, influential district. And its superintendent and his policies have had the support of the president and AG of the United States. Heavy stuff.Meanwhile the MSM averts its eyes.

Good one OP, thanks for posting.Funny how these things seem to have an effect on many who have no idea such things are happening. I have a since deceased member of my extended family peripherally involved in this South Florida mess and decided to get out of it. This was many years ago so this sort of activity seems to chug right on along.Nothing new under the sun is there?

Lakeville South Edged Out TwicePosted by on July 10, 2009 – 1:00 pm
The Vikings are 1 of 16 NFL teams being represented at this year's HSPD 7-on-7 National Tournament, and the team representing them is from Lakeville South High School. And although they've been on the wrong end of 2 close decisions with a 10-point loss sandwiched in between, their head coach Larry Thompson has kept an up-beat attitude.
"Hopefully we can find some luck here along the way," Thompson said.
Thompson also explained how neat it was for his kids to not only qualify for the national tournament but then also have the chance to compete in it as it's hosted by the Vikings at Winter Park.
So far, the Lakeville South team has been unable to tally a win. They fell 24-21 to New Orleans in Game 1, 38-28 to Carolina in Game 2 and then 35-34 to the Giants in Game 3. The Vikings have 2 more round robin games today against the Rams and Redskins before they play their last 2 round robin games tomorrow against the Cardinals and Falcons.
After round robin play concludes around noon tomorrow, the teams will be seeded and will then compete in a single elimination tournament to determine the champion.

BOURBON — Extreme couponing. The concept popularized by the TV show of the same name made clipping coupons a nationwide craze in 2010. Bourbon resident and avid couponer Valerie Manns has never seen the show, but that fact didn't prevent her from teaching a class at the Bourbon Public Library Saturday about how to get started couponing.
BOURBON — The mention of the inbound play that produced Clay Yeo's sectional final-winning shot brought a smile to the Triton boys basketball star's face.
"I was arguing with (head) coach (Jason) Groves about what play to run," Yeo, who fired in a game-high 30 points, said. "I guess he was right."
Hoosier Boys and Girls State representatives from Triton High School are standing, from left, delegates D.J. Riffle and Trenton Cooper; Hoosier Girls State Delegate, Paige Ullery; and Boys State Alternate, Drew Mosson. Representatives must rank in the upper half of the junior class and are selected by the Triton faculty from a pool of students interested in participating. The Bourbon Post 424 sponsors the Boys State delegates while the American Legion Auxiliary of the Bourbon Post sponsors the Girls State delegates.
BOURBON — This weekend, six teams of Triton students will travel to Kokomo for the regional Destination Imagination competition. They've been practicing, creating, and rehearsing all year, and it's time for them to go up against more than 60 other teams in a contest that will explore their abilities at improvising, building, and multi-tasking. From first through 12th grade, the students know that their best effort can only come from group unity. When asked if they have a leader, the "E is the Only Vowel" team shakes their heads fervently, eyes widening at the thought.

BOURBON — Water/wastewater department head Mike Shoda came before the Bourbon Town Council Tuesday with the idea to stop adding fluoride to the town's public water supply. According to Shoda, fluoride in water may not be actually necessary and taking it out could save the town about $2,000 per year. Shoda also mentioned that he had spoken with the water department head in Walkerton — a town which has already ceased the addition of fluoride to their water — about the issue.
"There's no law that says we need fluoride in the water," said Shoda.
BOURBON — In a group of more than 40 teenagers, it's rare to not see a single cell phone. But that's exactly what happened during Triton High School's recent trip to the Indianapolis VA Medical Center.
"We did not see one cell phone out while we were in the hospital," said Geri Newman, Triton High School nurse and chaperone for the trip.
"Some of our kids never stop talking, and the ones that never stop talking here were at a loss for words there," added Mason McIntyre, athletic director.
BOURBON — A planning committee has formed in Bourbon to bring about the first-ever farmers market. The market will be located in the old Dairy Queen parking lot at the corner of West Center and 3rd Streets. The lot is the property of the Bourbon United Pentecostal Church.
Mark Cottrill, a member of the planning committee and pastor of Bourbon UPC, said that he has heard several requests for a farmers market from residents in the past several years. The empty lot, he added, is the perfect location for access for town residents and vendors.
Little Miss Valentine 2012 was Kiersten Gagnon, 6, daughter of Robin Sauer and Phillip Gagnon. She was awarded the honor as the result of a drawing at the conclusion of the annual Apple of My Eye Daddy-Daughter Dance held at Matchett Square in Bourbon. The event is a formal occasion directed by Kathryn Chapman Dreibelbis as a fundraiser for the upcoming Triton Summerfest and Miss Triton pageants. The young ladies enjoyed an evening of dancing, refreshments and spending time with their favorite male role models. The girls were each recognized and allowed to choose gifts.
PLYMOUTH — Andrew Benson, 19, of Plymouth and a juvenile from Plymouth were apprehended Thursday by Bourbon and Bremen police officers in the Bremen High School parking lot. The two had been breaking into vehicles in the parking lot of area high school for several weeks, taking items such as change, cell phones, stereo faceplates, and GPS systems.

Gabriella Wilde Wears Rip Jeans Front Row at Burberry at LFW
Need Now: Gabriella Wilde's Clean Rip Jeans
There must be something in the water RE ripped jeans. Clean-rip jeans, to be specific. Yesterday we were smitten enough with Ksubi's single tear blue jeans to include them in our Essential Wardrobe edit, and blow me down if we didn't see a near identical pair on the killer legs of British model/actress Gabriella Wilde today. Her inky strides may have looked like regular jeans on arrival at Burberry's London fashion week show, but she took her front row and — pop! Gabriella's one bare knee gave her otherwise put together look an air of unexpected nonchalance. Please note: this is not about an all-over distressed effect, it's one or two (max!) clean tears in a slim-fit jean, preferably on or near the knee. Not into DIYing yourself a pair? We found five that are ready to go now.
