When Indian policy makers announced last week that they would allow big-box foreign retailers like Wal-Mart into the country, they pledged that it was the beginning of a long-awaited second wave of economic reforms that would make the country more hospitable to business.
If they follow through, it could prompt a new economic boom in India, where once-brisk growth has slowed markedly in recent years.
But it is a big if.
Just a few days into the effort, concern is growing about whether the latest steps, which also include reductions in fuel subsidies and changes in aviation policy, go far enough, and whether the government will be able to carry out even these limited proposals in the face of stiffening opposition from political allies and opponents.
On Tuesday, an important regional leader, Mamata Banerjee, announced that she would withdraw her support from the governing national coalition on Friday afternoon if policy makers did not abandon their change agenda. Ms. Banerjee, a tenacious politician from West Bengal, last year helped torpedo an earlier effort to open the doors to foreign retailers.
Even if the governing coalition, led by the Indian National Congress Party, retains power, it is unclear how it will push through more changes with the help of other partners. And if it keeps
Ms. Banerjee in the alliance by accepting her demands, the Congress party will find it difficult to make the case for bigger changes in taxation and policies governing land and natural resources. Skepticism of the government's commitment to change runs deep, given a long history of disappointments.
"I am grossly underwhelmed," said Arvind Singhal, chairman of Technopak Advisors, an Indian consulting firm. "This is just the tip of the much larger thing that needs to be done."
But analysts and executives say the new thrust is critical to reviving flagging business confidence and persuading companies to dust off mothballed investment plans. India's economy, which recovered quickly to an 8.4 percent annual growth rate after the financial crisis, is now slowing sharply and could grow as little as 5.4 percent in the fiscal year that began in April, economists say.
The Congress-led alliance has struggled to approve any significant economic policies in the eight years it has been in power. So letting foreign supermarkets enter the country, in particular, had become a litmus test of sorts for many investors and credit rating agencies about its commitment to liberalizing India's economy.
"This will be a game changer not because of its immediate impact but because it redefines the feasibility of reforms in the current political environment," said Eswar Prasad, an economist at Cornell and the Brookings Institution who advises the Indian government.
Still, analysts complain that as politically difficult as the most recent changes were to enact, they do not go far enough.
The new retail policy, for instance, will allow each of India's 29 state governments to block stores owned by foreign chains like Wal-Mart and Tesco. In aviation, the new policy would allow foreign airlines to buy only a 49 percent stake in their Indian counterparts, most of which are losing money. That restriction, with India's seemingly limitless financial support for the beleaguered state-owned Air India, is expected to deter many would-be investors.
Some in the government appear to recognize that they must do more. On Monday, Palaniappan Chidambaram, who recently was named finance minister and helped undo some of India's socialist and protectionist policies during a previous stint in the job, said that the government would announce more changes before the end of October.
If the new retail policy does take effect as announced, companies like Wal-Mart and Ikea could be big winners.
Retail sales in India total about $500 billion a year, but less than 10 percent take place in modern stores. Much of retailing is made up of small shops owned and run by families that have long opposed foreign investment. But young Indians are increasingly drawn to air-conditioned malls and department stores where couples and gaggles of teenagers can hang out openly without worrying about offending their more conservative parents and grandparents.
Wal-Mart, which with an Indian partner has 17 wholesale stores in India, is expected to be the biggest immediate beneficiary of the new policies, which will allow it to take a 51 percent stake in an Indian retail operation. Retail chains with a foreign investor will be allowed to open stores in and near cities with at least one million people as long as states give consent, and both New Delhi and Mumbai are expected to get new outlets.
Rajan Bharti Mittal, an executive of Wal-Mart's Indian partner, Bharti Enterprises, said the conditions imposed by the government - including a requirement that foreign retailers spend at least $100 million, with half of that going to processing and other back-end operations - were acceptable.
Mr. Mittal said the companies would soon begin negotiating a new agreement and planning their expansion. Bharti already operates more than 200 retail stores that are supplied by Wal-Mart and operate under the Easy Day brand.
Though only 10 Indian states have said they will allow foreign-backed retail stores, Mr. Mittal said he expects many more to do so in the coming years once they realize that the stores will create jobs and help subsistence farmers by buying directly from them at higher prices than the wholesale traders who have a monopoly on most food trade in India.
"I am quite certain that other states will see the advantages" of foreign investment in retailing, Mr. Mittal said. "The naysayers will become yes-sayers."
Another beneficiary is Ikea. The Swedish furniture retailer, which is allowed to set up wholly owned stores under current Indian policies for companies that sell only one brand of products, announced in June that it would invest about $2 billion in India. But its plans had been stuck because of a requirement that foreign retailers buy 30 percent of their merchandise from small Indian businesses. Last week, the government said that obligation would now be voluntary.
Other foreign companies seem less eager to enter the Indian market even after the recent changes. Tesco, the British supermarket chain that has a partnership with India's Tata Group, issued a statement saying it would not announce new plans until it received "further detail on the conditions" imposed by India.
And Lufthansa and British Airways, major European airlines that have many flights to and from India, have said they are not interested in investing in Indian airlines.
The United States ambassador to India, Nancy Powell, said the recent changes were welcome. However, she added a note of caution, born of experience: "American companies are going to look very closely at the fine print."
Analysts say that hesitation is understandable because poor infrastructure, widespread corruption and a weak judicial system make India a hard place for foreign investors to do
business, especially in industries like retailing and aviation.
"Strategic investors will wait to see some clarity," said Vikas Khemani, president of wholesale capital markets at Edelweiss Securities here. "A lot of investors like Wal-Mart have already expressed interest in India, but I don't see anything happening immediately until the policy environment is cleared up."

Written by Katie on February 10, 2016. Permalink
Issey Miyake has joined forces with Iittala and all you're going to see is this Tote Bag. Don't worry, you'll see the rest. For now, though, just take a look at the lightweight, wrinkle-resistant bag, and marvel how it will fold itself up rather compactly, and how it expands into a cool, origami-ish tote when you fill it with your shopping.

Nakoula Basseley Nakoula was taken from his home in California and questioned at a nearby sheriff's station in Los Angeles for half an hour before being released.
He was then dropped off at an undisclosed location.
"He is gone. We don't know where he went," said Steve Whitmore, spokesman for the Los Angeles County sheriff's department. "He said he is not going back to his home."
Mr Nakoula, 55, is said to be the man behind the film Innocence of Muslims, which caused uproar in the Middle East for its offensive portrayal of the prophet Muhammad.
A 13-minute clip of the film was posted on YouTube by a person using the moniker Sam Bacile. It was later reported that Nakoula used Bacile as an alias, along with many other names.
It was also reported that Nakoula, an Egyptian coptic Christian, was convicted of fraud and is currently on probation. Part of those terms forbid him from using the internet without the permission of a probation officer.
While it appears that the authorities are probing Mr Nakoula's potential probation breaches, there appears to be no question of any action being taken over his making of the film which is almost certainly protected under the first amendment of the US constitution's right to freedom of speech.
The film was made in July but it was not until last week, when it was redubbed in Arabic and posted again. that it caused uproar.
The US embassy in Benghazi was stormed by protestors and Chris Stevens, the US ambassador to Libya was killed. Similar violent protests have taken place in Egypt, Sudan, Yemen and Tunisia.
Meanwhile it has been reported that another figure behind the film was Alan Roberts, a director who has previously worked on soft-porn films.
It has also been reported that a Canadian Hindu group is planning to screen the film in Toronto later this month. The Canadian Hindu Advocacy said it is looking for a cinema to screen the film and said they were doing it to make a point about free speech.
"There is an element of standing up for our values. In our society we are allowed to screen films, even if they are offensive," Ron Banerjee, a spokesman for the group said.
The Los Angeles Times claimed that some of the men involved in the film – including Mr Nakoula – are devotees of an anti-Islamic preacher, Zakaria Botros Henein.

Sienna White Gets Bait Tanks Installed near Pleasure Point
SOS announces the installation of cigarette butt receptacles along the Pleasure Point walkway. These three receptacles, called "Bait Tanks" were installed because of one very determined SOS Beachkeeper who has collected thousands of cigarette butts in the area. Cigarette butts are the number one trash item collected at beach and river cleanups worldwide, this simple solution can have a large impact on our trash stream making its way into the ocean.
Sienna White is a SOS Sanctuary Steward and SOS Beachkeeper who decided to take the problem of the overwhelming amount of cigarette butt litter into her own hands. Every week from March to December she walked the Pleasure Point to The Hook pathway and picked up over 4,400 cigarette butts! The record amount was 174 in just one day. Her reflection on her work has been eye-opening, "Cigarette butts are so common people don't see them anymore. I would like to challenge everyone to look down on the ground, anywhere that people go, for five minutes and you will see the source of my inspiration."
SOS volunteers have collected over 466,000 cigarette butts since 2007. The average amount of cigarette butts per cleanup has gone from 430 in 2012 to 290 in 2013 showing a large decrease in recent months. With more and more smoking bans and Bait Tanks being installed around town, we can predict that this number will continue to fall. "We are so grateful for our volunteers like Sienna who are helping us work on the problem of cigarette butt litter. We thank our community for using these Bait Tanks to help address this most pervasive form of litter," says Laura Kasa, Executive Director of SOS.
These Bait Tanks have been shown to be very effective. In 2011, SOS installed 18 Bait Tanks in Santa Cruz and Capitola and monitored the amount of cigarette butt litter before and after the installation. On average in Santa Cruz, there was a 70% decrease in littered butts in our 9 monitored locations and an 80% decrease in our 9 Capitola monitored locations. We hope this example of strong citizen action and creating change will spread throughout our community.

People took to social media on their feelings towards the Zimmerman case and surrounding details after hearing about the 'Not Guilty' verdict of George Zimmerman in the shooting death of Trayvon Martin. Not only did it spark a conversation about racial profiling and race-related issues, but also support for the Martin family. Many called to continue to protest the 'Not Guilty' verdict of George Zimmerman, while others say that we should educate ourselves more and be aware of our justice system and laws.
Amongst those taking to social media, celebrities and public figures made statements on their feelings regarding the case. Long-time supporter of "Justce for Trayvon," actor/singer Jamie Foxx took to Twitter July 14, 2013 stating his support for the Martin family.
We also asked the community how they felt about the statement President Obama issued in response to the 'Not Guilty' verdict of George Zimmerman.
President Obama's statement:
"The death of Trayvon Martin was a tragedy. Not just for his family, or for any one community, but for America. I know this case has elicited strong passions. And in the wake of the verdict, I know those passions may be running even higher. But we are a nation of laws, and a jury has spoken. I now ask every American to respect the call for calm reflection from two parents who lost their young son. And as we do, we should ask ourselves if we're doing all we can to widen the circle of compassion and understanding in our own communities. We should ask ourselves if we're doing all we can to stem the tide of gun violence that claims too many lives across this country on a daily basis. We should ask ourselves, as individuals and as a society, how we can prevent future tragedies like this. As citizens, that's a job for all of us. That's the way to honor Trayvon Martin."
Social media has been proven to be an effective way to raise one's voice though, especially with recent news reports stating that Juror B37 received a book deal under the agent Sharlene Martin. Genie Lauren, who uses the twitter handle @MoreAndAgain tweeted out the agent's contact information to her followers telling them to send emails and to tweet urging her to reconsider the book deal. She also launched a Change.org petition, which asked the agency to drop the book deal with Juror B37, according to reports by Uproxx.com.

Cutting & Filing
Cutting & Filing
There are many options available to organize the coupons you cut out. You can do an online search for more fancy coupon organizers, but they are often costly.
This is back in the dollar section at Target. (January 2012)
Usually, stores like Target, Walmart, Staples, etc. carry a basic, inexpensive coupon envelope or a sturdy envelope with dividers. Unless you are sure you want to jump in completely, I suggest that you start with one of those and go from there. If you want your holder to last longer and it's not plastic, I suggest covering it with clear packing tape.
Other popular systems use a recipe type box with dividers or a three ring binder with clear plastic sleeves (baseball card holder style) that you can slip coupons in.
One of my old, dirty, tattered ones that I've had for years.
What do I use? I started with one divided envelope that I outgrew and I just kept expanding until I have what I do today. I will explain my previous system before I switched to my hybrid method of non-cutting and cutting below.
I will attempt to explain it in detail, but please understand that there are so many ways that will work. This is just what I did. Warning — it took me a long time to set up. Consider doing it while you watch TV or do some other similar task. I made mine on our drive to CA one time. I used a sturdy plastic envelope that already had dividers in it. However, there weren't enough, so I added a bunch. The more dividers you have, the shorter time it takes you to find coupons.
Sample of divider I made out of card stock & mailing tape.
I made my additional dividers out of card stock, reinforcing each tab and the top with mailing tape. I have listed the tabs below if you want to use it as a launching pad for creating your own system. I have two envelopes (different colors) for my grocery and drugstore shopping. One is for food, the other is for non-food. One may be enough for you.
I have a completely separate envelope for all other types of coupons. I have restaurant, retail, entertainment, etc. in there.
I always keep my coupons in my vehicle since I never know when I want to make quick trip somewhere. I do drag them in and out to get ready for a shopping trip, of course.
Here is a list of my tabs, just to help you brainstorm. I seem to change them slightly every few years when I make new envelopes, adjusting for sections that are too full or sparse. You'll probably want to alter them some to meet your buying needs. If you primarily shop at one store, consider the layout of the store. (Some divisions below may not make sense to you, but they are mostly set up the way my favorite store organizes their aisles. I also have more specific categories for areas that I tend to accumulate more coupons for.)
Food: Baking, Bread, Bars & Fruit Snacks, Cereal & Breakfast, Chips & Cookies & Crackers, Candy & Gum, Popcorn & Nuts & Other Snacks, Condiments, Rice & Pasta, Soup & Misc. Cans, Ethnic, Canned Fruit & Veggies, Drinks (non chilled), Drinks (chilled), Cheese, Deli Meat, Yogurt, Rolls & Cookie Dough, Butter, Misc. Chilled, Produce, Frozen Meals, Frozen Dessert, Frozen Breakfast, Other Frozen, Albertsons, Bashas', Fry's, Safeway
Non-Food: Haircare, Toothpaste (all oral care), Deodorant, Soap, Skincare, Razors, Make-Up, Feminine Hygiene, Medical #1 (more mainstream, my own definition), Medical #2, Laundry & Dishwashing, Cleaning, Fresheners, Paper Goods (TP, Kleenex, paper towels), Storage Bags (plates, cups, etc.), Baby (I put food in here too), Pet, Misc., CVS, Walgreens, Target
Note: I put rainchecks and store specific coupons with each store. I also put special coupons (free, very good ones, etc) in a store I know I'll be at so that I don't forget to use it when I'm there.
Other Envelope: (non grocery/non drugstore) Fast Food, Restaurants, Mall, Service, Retail, Entertainment, Movies, Loyalty Cards, Gift Cards, Prescriptions (Eventually, the rubber band closure broke and Velcro was added to keep it closed. Keep your system going for a long as you can to save time!)
I just wanted to provide examples and some brainstorming here. Please do what you feel will work for you. It's very likely that you will combine categories. If you know you use a lot of a category, break it down further.
Make sure you put your name and phone number on whatever you settle on. There is a good chance that you will leave it somewhere. (Unfortunately, I am speaking from experience!)

Grenier added to France squad
Olympique Lyon midfielder Clement Grenier has been called into the France squad for the nation's upcoming friendlies against Uruguay and Brazil.
The 22-year-old joins Les Bleus after Manchester City midfielder Samir Nasri was ruled out due to health concerns.
"Because of doubts on Samir Nasri's health after Manchester City's two games in the United States, Didier Deschamps has called up Clement Grenier," the French Football Federation said in a statement.
France, who play Uruguay on June 5 and Brazil on June 9, did not elaborate on Nasri's condition.
Girondins Bordeaux fullback Benoit Tremoulinas has also been added to Deschamps' squad as a replacement for City's Gael Clichy, who has been suffering from a groin injury.

7 Ways to Gather Referrals for Your Business to Make it More Valuable
An AccountingWEB WorkshopPresented by: Trent Kaeslin and Jennifer DayceResults Accountants' Systems
Session Moderator: Good afternoon everyone! I want to thank Trent and Jennifer for being here today from Results Accountants' Systems.
Referrals have historically been the way most CPAs have built their practices and I'm sure they can shed light on this for us.
The floor is yours Jennifer!
Jennifer Dayce: Hey guys! Great to have you all here today. My name is Jennifer Dayce with Results Accountants Systems. The topic for today is "7 Ways to Gather Referrals for Your Business."
The first way to gather referrals is by giving their friends a gift from you. You will offer something special. Has anyone done this before and what is the feedback?
Alfred Greenfield Jr: I have never done it before, however I have heard it as common practice.
Gina Pasyk: Are you giving gifts to the friends of your current referral sources?
Trent Kaeslin: We've found that referrals have the most impact on growing your business as you'll see with the referral spreadsheet that you'll receive.
Kimberly Jennings: I have used this tactic before with other professional service companies and have found it is one of the best ways to make it worth others' time
Trent Kaeslin: Has anyone done something specific that they can share with the group to get us started?
Michelle Golden: Yes. And it helps to make your existing client look good in their friend's eyes.
Trent Kaeslin: Kimberly - can you share with us exactly what you've done to give us some ideas.
Jennifer Dayce: Great Kimberly! How did this affect your referrals?
Kimberly Jennings: I have offered everything from 2 free movie tickets to Colorado Prime Steaks as an incentive and it has worked. People like incentives and it becomes almost a game to see if you will keep rewarding them.
Trent Kaeslin: What did the clients think of the gifts? Were they surprised and do they continue to refer people?
Kimberly Jennings: Yes, they are surprised many times and they keep referring. I haven't done a formal analysis on how much it increases referrals but I believe it does.
Wendy Willis: I was asked to offer a gift for a trade show event, and was stumped trying to think of something suitable. Do most people usually use tickets as gifts?
Trent Kaeslin: Wendy - Gifts don't need to be elaborate but they should be perceived as valuable, the client should be comfortable with the gift and you should ensure that the dollar value isn't to great.
Michelle Golden: I've seen it not work, too. Even a cash incentive. I believe if the service to the client wasn't PERFECT one shouldn't ask them to refer at all.
Trent Kaeslin: Does anyone have specific suggestions or ideas of what they have given in addition to Kimberly?
Robert Kosbie: WE have had great success sending a dozen cookies from a specialty cookie shop. They are promised to be delivered "hot out of the oven"
Session Moderator: Trent, each year, my firm would choose a "gift" to give our best referral sources - this was beyond the reciprocal referrals.
Michelle Golden: Coffee table books, gift baskets, bed & breakfast gift certificate (was a BIG referral) and other event tickets.
Session Moderator: One year, it was magnums of French wine. Last year, in honor of Y2K, it was champagne. Another year, it was steak dinner certificates. Of course, these are the big guns... so the value was relevant.
I found it very interesting that clients often said that "thanks" was enough... most of them were very wealthy and didn't "need" anything, but appreciated the acknowledgement.
Wendy Willis: I have used world-renowned chocolates from Rogers for my best clients, and they have sent referrals.
Trent Kaeslin: I agree that not everyone needs something of great value but the recognition encourages them to continue and is greatly appreciated. Even a simple letter if you aren't able to talk with them in person.
Jennifer Dayce: Awesome! The second: Get an influential client ( or associate) to send a letter singing your praises.
Session Moderator: I find that giving referrals back is the greatest incentive to keeping the referrals coming. Well, my colleague and I used to refer reporters to people who had given us referrals when we didn't have reciprocal referrals.
Kimberly Jennings: I agree with referral swapping.
Michelle Golden: Referring back is good, but sometimes it isn't possible.
Robert Kosbie: Quid Pro Quo is not always feasible or practical. What do you suggest when a referral is not possible?
Trent Kaeslin: Robert - I think you make a valid point. If you are giving a client value and you agree prior to your engagement that they'll provide you with a referral, there shouldn't be any problem asking. I find it easier to ask for referrals if you preface the relationship by saying you would like them to refer clients after they see the work you can do and are impressed with it.
Session Moderator: What about free PR?
Robert Kosbie: What do you mean by FREE PR?
Session Moderator: Although people REALLY appreciated it, they ALWAYS told us they would rather have the business.
Amy Dawson: What is the best time in the relationship to ask for referrals?
Kimberly Jennings: The best time to ask for a referral is just after the client has complimented your company or your services.
Trent Kaeslin: Hi Amy - At the beginning let them know that if they are delighted with your work you would appreciate them referring clients to you.
Michelle Golden: At the MINIMUM, a personal hand written note should be sent immediately (even if you don't obtain business from the person referred).
Jennifer Dayce: That brings me to the third idea: Identify businesses that have the same kind of ideal potential clients as yours and have them promote your business.
Robert Kosbie: Great Idea :) How do you establish a reporter relationship to provide such a referral?
Session Moderator: Robert - that takes time and energy - it's something that you develop and can use as one of the toys in your toy box.
Robert Kosbie: I realize that it takes time, where would you suggest starting?
Session Moderator: Robert - I would suggest calling the financial reporter at your local biz journal and asking them out to lunch/breakfast. Ask them what you can do to help them do their job - cover their beat.
Jennifer Dayce: Has anyone had success by gaining referrals by having an "invitation-only event"?
Dwain Speese: Recently, I was asked to provide a free consultative session to anyone that this source referred to me. I agreed of course because in order for me to even begin putting together a proposal, I would need information and the best way to get it is in a consultative session.
Trent Kaeslin: Invitation-only events are a great way to show your current clients or selected potential clients that they are valued. A good way to encourage referrals would be to ask your current clients to come and bring a guest or let you know whom else they should invite so they do not miss out.
Does anyone else have insight into a invitation only event?
Michelle Golden: The beauty of it is you have prospects surrounded by people who can vouch for your quality.
Joseph Matherne: I normally follow up with clients after the engagement is complete. During this meeting, I ask for feedback and if the client seems pleased with our work. I'll explain the type of client we are looking for and ask for any referrals.
Trent Kaeslin: Joseph - great point regarding the client selection.
Jennifer Dayce: Another way to gather referrals is to piggyback your mailing pieces. For example, when an associate (or a client's) business sends out monthly invoices or a letter, they enclose a newsletter, flyer or some sort of endorsement. This keeps postage or delivery costs down.
Has anyone attempted the piggyback mailing?
Jennifer Dayce: One way to get the team involved in having a great time with the clients and potential clients is to throw a party for the customers and have them invite at least two friends.
Jennifer Dayce: How does that sound? Has anyone thought of doing that?
Session Moderator: Sounds like a good plan.
Jennifer Dayce: What do you think some benefits would be if you did this for some of your clients?
Session Moderator: I've heard, though, that when working with clients you have to be careful if you can't invite all of them
Depending on how well you know your clients, you could help them develop business with other clients. For instance, you could mention that one client was looking for "X" services, etc.
Jodi Harless: We do luncheons for groups that we see as referral sources such as bankers or attorneys and offer them time to tell us about what they do and then we do the same and discuss the services that our firm provides. Does anyone else do anything similar?
Michelle Golden: Jodi, I've set up events where our accounting firm held small seminars in conjunction with a bank, an attorney and a psychologist to discuss the many aspects of succession planning. Each speaker had to invite 10 key clients from their firm. Great cross-marketing, and we presented well as a "team.â
Jodi Harless: Michelle-that's a great idea. Has it been successful?
Michelle Golden: Yes, very. The attendees could see the mix of professionals already had good rapport.
Jennifer Dayce: Michelle, how often did you have the events with your clients to set up the cross marketing? And did you have it like an invitation only setting?
Michelle Golden: We didn't do them as often as I would have liked to. They were held in a large training room of the bank (a community bank that happened to be our biggest client). It was by invitation only.
Jennifer Dayce: Michelle, did your clients feel valued and did their referrals feel as though they too would be appreciated?
Michelle Golden: Jennifer, we were very careful to make sure the session was information packed! It was not a sales pitch at all and it really didn't need to be. I think the attendees got a lot of value out of it and that speaks volumes because if we had wasted their time, no one would have appreciated it.
Trent Kaeslin: It is important that if you want referrals, which I'm assuming we all do, that you get referrals that will benefit your business not a client that will drain your resources.
Joseph Matherne: We've written down the characteristics of the types of clients we are seeking and we give a copy of this to our best clients and ask for as many referrals as possible. I explain that by getting them involved in my marketing plan I have more time to devote to their needs.
Jennifer Dayce: Good idea Joseph! How has this impacted your firm since implementation?
Joseph Matherne: Our results have been outstanding. It has allowed us to really identify those clients that we are able to serve best at a profit and to eliminate those hard cases. Although we're not there yet. We are seeking to be 100% referral within the next 5.
Dwain Speese: 100% referral seems to be a lofty goal but I can see that as very advantageous.
Trent Kaeslin: Joseph - that's great. Have you found, or maybe at this point do you think you'll find that your advertising and marketing expenses will be decreased and redirected?
I've seen firms that spend thousands on yellow page ads and marketing and realize that they are not getting the dividends. They get 80% of there business from referrals and now market to them solely. Just like Joseph is planning to do.
Joseph Matherne: Exactly, we have reduced our marketing expenses and I feel that we are receiving more value for each dollar spent by redirecting our efforts toward 100% referrals.
Trent Kaeslin: Joseph - would you mind sharing some more details about your referral system. I'm interested to know about some of the % that you've improved revenues or reduced expenses.
Joseph Matherne: I haven't really crunched the number but I'd say our marketing expenses are down by about 20%. After we receive the referral, I have the client send the referral a letter describing our firm. This letter is completed by our staff. After we make initial contact with the client letter, I generally wait about two weeks and begin a process of mail outs. These mailouts are mainly articles that I feel my ideal clients would be interested in. I mail a new article every other week. After 6 mailouts or 12 weeks, I make initial contact. Normally, a phone interview which if all goes well I move into a formal meeting.
Michelle Golden: Joseph, you say you've written the criteria to share with clients. How do you present it?
Joseph Matherne: After an engagement, I normally sit down with the client to get a critique of our performance and to probe for any additional value I can provide. I then explain to the client that marketing takes up a lot of my time and prevents me from adding any value to our relationship. If they could assist me by providing a few referrals, I would be able to work more efficiently for them.
Jacolyn Fellin: I have gotten involved in the Non Profit community and gained many referrals from those associations.
Jennifer Dayce: The last way we have seen success in gathering referrals is by purchasing leads by offering a 'spotters fee.' This becomes more of a commercial relationship. In this instance, depending on the lifetime value of your customer ( that is, if it's financially worth it!), you could do this for your client for introducing potential clients to your business.
Trent Kaeslin: Would anyone else like to share shat they have done to encourage referrals?
Robert Kosbie: One thing we do is call and thank the referrer and immediately ask for another referral.
Trent Kaeslin: I've talked with clients who I feel are A clients or top clients and have asked for referrals. A lot of times I've found that off the top of their head maybe they can't think of anyone but I'll follow up with them at a later date and ask again. It is amazing what happens with a little persistence. Even if they can't think of someone, you're on their mind and eventually it will pay dividends.
Michelle Golden: Trent, you're right and it is so important to simply let your clients know you aren't too busy to accept new work.
Trent Kaeslin: Very good point Michelle. I think clients may also get the wrong impression if they feel you are always busy when they call or appear to not have time for them . They may feel that you can't handle more work and not refer anyone.
Jennifer Dayce: That is awesome Michelle! Whose clientele was greatly increased by referrals? Joseph has dedicated a great portion of time and effort to realizing this is a great potential for growth.
Trent Kaeslin: It is important that systems are in place to prevent this. Phone scripts, time frames for getting back to clients, etc.
Michelle Golden: Very true, Trent. Any ideas on breaking down resistance to setting up such systems?
Trent Kaeslin: Good question - with any system I would test it first and ask the client for feedback. Open and honest. I think the phone system is one of the most important first steps. It gives a first impression.
Jennifer Dayce: Do you offer the client that has given a referral anything to continue having them refer businesses to you?
Has anyone ever monitored which clients came as referrals and why they were referred to you?
Joseph Matherne: Jennifer - I do this with referrals that I've solicited from clients to see what kind of response rate I'm getting.
Jennifer Dayce: Great job Joseph! This is also a way to monitor that what your clients want is being done in your business. We are coming to a close on this topic, but evidently everyone has conveyed that it is essential to have referrals to increase your business and get the clientele you want. Thank you all for participating.
Session Moderator: I am so impressed by all of you. It sounds like most of you are on the right track to building business and referrals. We have just a few minutes left. Are there any questions for Jennifer and Trent?
I want to thank Trent and Jennifer again for being here today. What a great session! Thanks, too, to all of you who interacted and shared your experiences.
Trent Kaeslin: Thank you for all the participation today. Keep implementing and don't forget to ask for those referrals.
Session Moderator: Don't forget to email us and let us know if there are any topics of interest we can cover in our workshop series for you!

In light of the recession this holiday season, what kinds of programs in your district are doing important things to fight hunger and poverty?
In the Monterey Bay area, 20 percent of the people live below the federal poverty level and the number of people who have suffered from food insecurity (having missed meals) has tripled in the past eight years. Second Harvest Food Bank is one of the most effective service organizations in the area and they have large bins in front of local stores and offices in order to collect canned food donations. Last month, Second Harvest Food Bank served free food to approximately 44,000 individuals and they receive a majority of their food donations during the holiday season.
Additionally, I have had the pleasure of meeting the volunteers at the Loaves and Fishes Soup Kitchen who feed the large number of individuals who stop by for a meal, as well as the seniors who volunteer at Grey Bears bagging food for their Brown Bag program that delivers food to other seniors. While these two programs serve different clientele, they both aid in reducing hunger within our community.
Recently, I participated in a gleaning (harvesting) in the fields of Salinas sponsored by the group Ag Against Hunger, where we picked tons of romaine lettuce that would have gone to waste. Ag Against Hunger connects local growers with food banks and feeds 75,000 low-income people each month in Santa Cruz, Monterey and San Benito Counties. If there can be a silver lining to this recession, it's that many local residents are using their unexpected free time to volunteer to help those in even worse shape. Whether it is food, money, or time, all are welcomed by these worthy organizations.
My wife and I will join others in serving Thanksgiving dinner to homeless and low-income families. I encourage those who are able to volunteer with others who are making a difference in these tough economic times.
The house passed its version of the healthcare package. Now that it goes to the US Senate, what are the implications for health reform in California?
The national healthcare reform package that recently passed the House of Representatives continues to be a "work in progress" as the U.S. Senate debates additional critical issues and proposed amendments. Among the issues of greatest concern to the states and to me as a state legislator, is whether states will have the option to pass legislation that may provide a higher level of protection or coverage than the national healthcare reform package.
The issue of "federal pre-emption" is at the center of debate in Congress and will determine how California and other states may proceed with state-based reform measures in the future. As a co-author of Senate Bill 810, a measure that would establish a single payer health care system in California, I remain committed to support of a universal and comprehensive healthcare program that will prioritize funding of preventive healthcare protection while preserving patient choice and flexibility.
The legislature passed a large water package recently. What will its impact be here on the Central Coast?
The water package passed by the California Legislature involves a number of water policy bills addressing conservation, groundwater monitoring, Delta governance, Delta conservation, and an $11 billion water bond measure that requires a majority vote of California voters in November 2010 to become law.
Much of the water package focuses on California's northern, Delta, central, and southern regions. The bond measure would extend the cost of the infrastructure for water storage, Delta restoration, and specific water projects to all California taxpayers. I did not support the bond measure because I had concerns about the need for a "beneficiary pays" system of water management and the debt burden on the general fund. I also believe that the Delta recovery and restoration plans failed to include sufficient Delta representation in composition and implementation.
As most readers are aware, the Central Coast region of California is dependent on our own water system of aquifers supported by riparian arteries including the San Lorenzo, Soquel, Pajaro, Salinas, Carmel, and Big Sur rivers. Throughout our region, we face the challenge of overdrafting. We need to maximize and promote integrated conservation, reuse and recycling, and alternative water systems, including desalination where appropriate, cost-effective, and environmentally sound. We need to look at water use and management as a regional issue, while working to engage all water users in a fundamentally new manner of thinking to protect one of our most precious and life-sustaining resources.

SUBJECT:All Passenger and Light Truck ModelsFlow Noises from Area of Power Steering Pump and/or Foaming of Power Steering Oil in ReservoirIf you receive customer reports in the above model vehicles of flow noises from the area of the power steering pump, and/or foaming of the power steering fluid in the reservoir following work carried out on the hydraulic steering system; this may be caused by an improper procedure followed for filling fluid and bleeding of the hydraulic power steering system.To remedy, it is absolutely necessary to make sure that the procedure described in the WIS documents is strictly adhered to. In particular, it is necessary to turn the steering to full lock-to-lock at least 30 times BEFORE STARTING THE ENGINE. If this is not done prior to starting engine, there is a high risk of air entering the steering system, which is subsequently very difficult to eliminate.NOTE: Starting the engine prior to bleeding can cause irreparable damage to the power steering pump and will cause an air cushion to form in the steering gear which causes noise. Once the air is ingested, the ingested air will only dissipate after driving the vehicle for more than 30 miles.

Once you get a job and a few paychecks, you will need to go for a REALLY EASY card. If you are in college and income, go for student card.

Too many times, Antoine Khoury has heard the story of parents wrestling with the fear of enrolling their child in French immersion and not being able to help them with their schoolwork because they don't speak the language.
Can't help your kids with their French homework? Free online instruction offered
Too many times, Antoine Khoury has heard the story of parents wrestling with the fear of enrolling their child in French immersion and not being able to help them with their schoolwork because they don't speak the language.
Knowing what an advantage speaking two languages can be, Khoury is set to launch a free online French language program aimed at helping the parents of junior and senior kindergarten students in French immersion or French language instruction.
"I want to help parents who want to help their children in French to do their schoolwork," said Khoury, a retired French teacher with the Windsor-Essex Catholic District School Board and a part-time and sessional instructor at the University of Windsor for over three decades.
"For the past year, I've volunteered an hour a week at libraries in Windsor and Essex County teaching French. I know people are busy, maybe can't make a particular night or can't get there. So offering it free online, I'm hoping to reach more people."
Khoury said the program is tailored to the skill level of each student and they'll progress at their own pace, not at the group's pace.
By not being in a group setting, Khoury said it also relieves the stress of struggling to speak a new language in front of strangers.
"If you can't speak the language, it can be humiliating for some students," said Khoury, who also has written several children's language books used in the local school systems. "This avoids that.
"Parents can master the language in their own homes."
After a lifetime of teaching, he's created his own materials for the course including CDs.
He said his teaching technique stresses vocabulary first and grammar second.
"Often grammar is taught first, but think of how you learned to speak as a young child," Khoury said. "You learned vocabulary and then grammar later at school.
"If you can build your vocabulary, understand the use in context as we do, the grammar comes easily."
It's a system Khoury employs across the board in his online language instruction business. In addition to French, Khoury also teaches Arabic and English online.
"Having the ability to speak French on your resume is a huge advantage," Khoury said. "Being able to speak the language and help your child really gets you engaged in what they're learning and what is happening at school.
"There's really nothing to lose for parents. It doesn't cost them anything."
Khoury said he plans to offer a four- to six-week online program. Individuals can start at any time.

Your current filters are…
by Jon Kolko
User-centered design research activities produce an enormous quantity of raw data, which must be systematically and rigorously analysed in order to extract meaning and insight.
This workshop will introduce various methods of Synthesis as ways to translate research into meaningful insights. During Synthesis, designers visually explore large quantities of data in an effort to find and understand hidden relationships. These visualizations can then be used to communicate to other members of a design team, or can be used as platforms for the creation of generative sketching or model making. The action of diagramming is a way to actively produce knowledge and meaning.
Workshop participants will learn about how to manage the complexity of gathered data, and through hands-on exercises, will apply various synthesis methods to elicit hidden meaning in gathered data.
by Kim Goodwin
Does your team struggle with developing or prioritizing requirements? Do you have difficulty getting stakeholders to think beyond their organizational silos to consider the end-to-end user experience? Do you sometimes wonder how to connect the dots between your user research and the design in a persuasive way?
If so, scenarios may be just the tool for you. Like use cases and agile user stories, scenarios describe sequential interaction. Unlike those other tools, though, scenarios rely on the generative and persuasive power of storytelling, which is perhaps the most natural creation and communication medium there is.
Based on a deep understanding of what makes your "characters" tick, this workshop will show you how to develop compelling stories, then use those stories to drive requirements and design.
by Cennydd Bowles and James Box
A repeat of http://lanyrd.com/2011/ux-austra...

Do you have a good UX story waiting to be told? Storytelling taps our oldest way of communicating to give you fresh ways to:
The techniques of storytelling can help you explore user research or develop design ideas that make emotional connections to users. In this day-long workshop, Whitney Quesenbery, author of Storytelling for User Experience will lead you in a deep dive into all the ways you can put storytelling to work for you, and lots of hands-on practice. Come learn how to collect, create, and use stories to make your UX work richer.

So you've done ethnographic user research. You've also analysed log files. You've interviewed help desk and customer service folks. You've had a honkin' meeting with stakeholders. And you've nailed a sense of the user, so you've got some great personas. You even held some design sketching sessions.
NOW what?
While many authors have codified the early phases of experience documentation, there's a disjunct that often happens when business analysts write requirements documents or developers and product managers write user stories.
Despite the best personas and user/task grids and wireframes, other documents override the best UX intentions.
User experience work doesn't end at the wireframe – it ends when the product is implemented. This workshop teaches you how to make sure your good work continues right through until the product is released.

Getting pregnant does not come naturally for some couples, who may turn to fertility treatments to aid in conception. Many couples use fertility drugs to increase chances of conception. However, the use of many fertility drugs can increase the chances of a multiple-birth pregnancy, such as twins, triplets or quadruplets.
Multiple Follicles
Many fertility drugs cause multiple follicles, or eggs, to be released during a woman's ovulation. According to the American Society for Reproductive Medicine, when multiple follicles are produced, one in three successful pregnancies will result in multiple births. Multiple risks are associated with multiple births, such as premature birth, low birth weight and developmental problems. While using fertility drugs, your doctor will monitor your cycle; if you are producing too many eggs in a given cycle, she may advise against conception for the month.
Clomiphene Citrate
Clomiphene citrate, sold under the brand names Clomid or Serophene, is often the first drug used to treat infertility, according to Web MD. Clomiphene citrate is taken orally to help women ovulate regularly. It works by causing the pituitary gland to release follicle-stimulating hormones and luteinizing hormones. These hormones signal the ovary to release follicles. Risk of multiple births is lower with clomiphene citrate than with injectable hormones and, according to Cigna, 5 to 8 percent of women who use clomiphene citrate become pregnant with multiple babies.
Human Chorionic Gonadotropin
Human chorionic gonadotropin is an injectable hormone that stimulates ovulation and promotes the maturity of normal eggs. Human chrorionic gonadotropin, which is sold under the brand names Pregnyl, Novarel, Ovidrel and Profasil, can cause multiple eggs to be released, which increases the risks of a multiple-birth pregnancy.
Human Menopausal Gonadotropin
Human menopausal gonadotropin is an injectable fertility drug used for women who don't ovulate regulalry. Sold under the brand names Repronex, Pergonal and Metrodin, hMG is used to treat women whose pituitary gland does not release follicle-stimulating hormones and luteinizing hormones to initiate ovulation. This drug contains both follicle-stimulating hormones and luteinizing hormones, so hMG bypasses the pituitary gland and directly stimulates the ovaries. It can stimulate the ovaries to produce multiple follicles, thus increasing the chances of multiple-birth pregnancy.
Follicle-Stimulating Hormone
Follicle-stimulating hormone is an injectable fertility drug used to stimulate the production and maturity of follicles. It is sold under the brand names Follistim, Fertinex, Bravelle and Gonal-F. The use of an injectable follicle-stimulating hormone increases the chances of multiple-birth pregnancy because of the stimulation of multiple follicles, or eggs, that can be fertilized.

OCALA - Police say they have probable cause to arrest a 30-year-old Ocala man who they believe robbed a convenience store late Monday night.
Authorities say shortly before midnight they received a call about a robbery at the Chevron gas station at 3232 W. State Road 40.
Clerks told officials a skinny man wearing a black hooded jacket and light-colored jeans, and roughly 5 feet 6 to 5 feet 8 tall, entered with a handgun and demanded cash. After receiving money, the gunman fled.
During their investigation, officials learned the robber's identity is Master F. Green. If apprehended, he will be charged with armed robbery with a firearm and possession of a firearm by a convicted felon.
Officers also think the suspect was involved in a Nov. 27 incident where a man loaned Green his vehicle and Green later reportedly pointed a handgun at the man and fled. Officials say if caught, he also will be charged with auto theft, aggravated assault with a deadly weapon and possession of firearm by a convicted felon.
Green, according to the state Department of Corrections Web site, served time separately for robbery with a deadly weapon and battery of a law enforcement official and emergency personnel.
He was released from the Santa Rosa Annex on Jan. 22.
Anyone with any information about Green's whereabouts can call the Ocala Police Department at 369-7000, Crime Line at 369-7061 or Crime Stoppers at 368-STOP, or visit www.ocalacrimestoppers.com.

If you have any last minute holiday baking to do I have the BEST cookie recipe!
These cookies are buttery and just like their name says…they melt in your mouth.
The next time I make them I will make a smaller cookie and cover it entirely in the frosting.
The cookie itself isn't very sweet so the frosting completes it!
Happy Baking!
-Melt-in-your-mouth Cookies-
1 cup butter (room temperature)
1/2 cup powdered sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 cup flour
3/4 cup cornstarch
a few splashes of milk
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Combine all the ingredients.
Roll the dough into 1 inch balls.
Bake for 5 minutes.
Take out and make a thumb print in your cookie.
Place back into the oven for 6-7 more minutes.
Cool the cookies.
Once cool add as much or as little frosting as you choose.
You can either fill the thumprint with frosting or cover the whole cookie (which is what I suggest!).
1 cup powdered sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla
2 tablespoons melted butter
a few splashes of milk
green (or any color) food coloring
Combine all your ingredients and mix.
Keep adding splashes of milk until the frosting is the consistency you want it.

I HATE the back acne (backne) breakout i've had for too long. What really works best to get rid of back acne? Is the back acne treatment the same as for facial acne?
What's the Best Back Acne Treatment?
Doctor Answers 24
Acne on the Back
Acne on the back can be difficult to treat with just topicals although most topical antibiotics and comedolytics (retinoids) do work for mild back acne. However, it is very difficult to consistently apply the medicine to the back and be weary as some topicals that contain benzoyl peroxide can bleach clothing and sheets.
Regarding backne, I would recommend seeing a dermatologist since over the counter medicine will typically not do the trick either. Prescriptions consisting of orals and topical antibiotics are often the most appropriate.
Treating acne on the back
Acne on the back is difficult to treat because of the problem of physically reaching the affected area. It's impossible to reach all of the affected areas to apply a cream or lotion. That is why I always choose cleansers first in treating back acne.
I like cleansers with glycolic or salicylic acid. These help unclog the pores by exfoliating the top layers of skin, releasing the oil and debris that is trapped in the pores and also decreasing the likelihood that new clogged pores will form. When these treatments aren't enough, it may be best to try an oral antibiotic.
It is also important to remember to shower soon after exercise. If you are sitting around in sweaty clothes after your workout, the pores are more likely to get clogged and trigger a breakout.

What's the Best Back Acne Treatment?
This kind of acne is usually triggered by excessive heat and friction from tight clothes. These conditions allow bacteria that reside on the surface of the skin to enter the hair follicles and sebaceous glands and cause infection and pimples.
Back acne (backne) can be at least partially prevented by not using backpacks. These cause frictions and sweat that make your back acne worse.
What can you do?
Tight clothes at the gym can keep all the sweat in and rub against your skin — causing you to break out. Instead, try to wear breathable clothing that wicks away sweat and keeps your body cool. Your beloved jeans are made from rough, thick cloth. Try to avoid them, especially in the summer!
Shower and change clothes after exercising!
When you exercise your skin is warm, which provides bacteria optimal growing conditions. Staying in your sweaty clothes can irritate the skin and trigger body acne and folliculitis which is the name for infected hair follicles. If you really can't shower right away, at least use a baby wipe on most of your body and a cleansing wipe on your face (and anywhere else you're breaking out).
If you have severe acne, change your sheets once a week and pillowcases once or twice a week.
The germs on your body and your hands get transferred to your pillowcase and then to your face. if you don't sleep with a shirt on, the dirt from your sheets could clog up your pores and make your body acne worse.
Your hoodies and scarves are in close contact with your face and body. They frequently harbor dirt and bacteria.
Make sure you're regularly washing all your clothes.
Treatment should be based on special anti bacterial cleansers, topical benzoyl peroxide and if these do not help oral antibiotics or Accutane.
For more info check the free MDacne app (Free download on Apple's Appstore).
Treating Back Acne
Body acne treatment can be as simple as a good salicylic wash and scrub . Note that many active wear clothing lines now promote "breathable" fabrics that wick perspiration. If your back acne is mainly blackheads, then consider treating the clogged pores with such changes.
If the lesions are inflamed, we often advise IPL laser treatments and consideration of oral antibiotics.

Backne treatments
Back Acne
Acne on the back is still acne.
And from your language, it looks like you might be headed for an unrealistic expectation as in "get rid" of acne.
It's probably wiser to think in terms of making the acne condition "better."
I'm not going to name products because every patient is different and the way they are treated should be tailored to them.
The one suggestion I will make is that if you are a student or work sitting for hours during the day, you seek out some kind of cushioning that lessens the pressure from the back of your chair. Acne can flair in those areas -- athletes see it under chin straps and shoulder pads.
See your doctor for the appropriate treatment.

Hello community,
We're currently running 6.2 and have been having an over-indexing problem on search results returns. It seems that the site search is including header data in the crawl and returning a overly robust result to the point where it becomes not useful. Has anyone had similar problems and/or can anyone recommend a method to exclude certain types of content at the page level. Please advise.
It has no idea what your template content is, you just need to hide it in your widgets or codebehind (wherever appropriate)
.GetIndexRenderMode() != Telerik.Sitefinity.Web.UI.IndexRenderModes.Normal){
mainMenuWidget.Visible =
mainToolbarWidget.Visible =
I'm partial to hiding widgets themselves...using layouts works on a per page basis...or per page template. So if a user uses your X\Y widget on a page and doesn't wrap it in the layout, it's being indexed again.
Where coded to the widget it's 100% sitewide...could even add a property to the widget to allow it to be indexed on a per-widget basis.

A Mt. Pleasant woman involved in an abuse neglect case scheduled to be in court next month admitted to smoking crack cocaine the day her daughter was nearly beaten to death.
In a petition in Isabella County Trial Court, Lisa Schaefer told authorities that her 2-year-old daughter, Kylah Williams, was uninjured at the time she was left in the care of David Andrew Delacruz-Slavik on Oct. 30 at his home on the Isabella Reservation.
Delacruz-Slavik was indicted earlier this month in U.S. District Court in Bay City on attempted murder, assault causing serious bodily injury to a child, torture, first-degree child abuse and assault with intent to commit a felony.
In the petition, which will be used at a dispositional hearing scheduled for Feb. 16 in Isabella County Trial Judge William Ervin's courtroom, Schaefer also admitted that Delacruz-Slavik was convicted of second-degree child abuse in September in Bay County.
Information provided in the petition indicates that Kylah was taken to Central Michigan Community Hospital Oct. 30 with several physical injuries, including multiple bruises all over her body, a pulmonary contusion, damage to the white matter of her brain, a brain hemorrhage, an adult human bite mark on her left side, a severe abrasion to the right side of her chin and significant bruising and lacerations to her left ear.
Those injuries had occurred within 24 hours before she was brought to the hospital, according to the petition.
Kylah was transferred to Sparrow Pediatric Intensive Care Unit in Lansing with "severe brain injury from non accidental trauma," according to the petition. She was transferred to Mary Free Bed Rehabilitation Hospital in Grand Rapids Dec. 7.
Delacruz-Slavik was "substantiated for physical abuse in Midland County against Kylah Williams in June 2008," according to the petition.
Kylah, at age 7 months, was taken to Covenant Hospital in Saginaw in June 2008 for treatment of a skull fracture, retinal hemorrhaging, multiple stage bruising on her cheek and bruising to her face, according to the petition.
"Upon her admission to Covenant, Kylah appeared lethargic, drowsy, pale and was not responding," the petition stated. "At the time, both parents stated that they did not know how Kylah acquired the bruising.
"David Slavik subsequently admitted that he had been giving Kylah a bath, that Kylah slipped and fell over in the tub, he panicked, he picked her up and stood up and held her at the height of his head, and that she 'slipped' out of his hands and fell back into the tub, hitting her head on the bottom."
Schaefer admitted in the petition that, on July 7, 2008, and July 9, 2009, a child protective services worker in Midland County told her that Delacruz-Slavik was substantiated for physical abuse against Kylah and that she would be held responsible for continuing to protect her children, and if she chose to allow contact with Delacruz-Slavik, "she could be considered for failing to protect her children."
Schaefer admitted in the petition that, on May 6, a child protective services worker in Isabella County warned her of the potential consequences if she remained with Delacruz-Slavik or allowed him to be around her children.
Delacruz-Slavik was convicted of distributing narcotics in 2008 and was convicted of impaired driving in 2006, according to the petition.
