One sperm donor's sperm has been used in 74 successful procedures.
To offset law-school expenses, Ben Seisler spent three years donating sperm to a Virginia sperm bank. He recently learned that his donations have produced 74 children - so far, according to Reuters.On the reality show Style Exposed: Sperm Donor we learn that while Seisler donated anonymously, he later discovered the Donor Sibling Registry, a website created to help donor-children find their biological fathers and half-siblings. After posting his contact information and "donor number" at the DSR, he began receiving emails from mothers who had bought and used his sperm."I want to be available to these families," Seisler, now a Boston lawyer, says on the reality show. "I'm kind of curious as to what are these kids like."When a friend asks whether he plans to attend 74 birthday parties every year, Seisler demurs. "They're not my kids," he says.The New York Times reported recently on a man whose donated sperm has produced 150 children, along with other donors who, thanks to data revealed by the DSR and similar sites, have "fathered" 50 or more. The locality and frequency of the use of one donor's sperm is problematic: There's the very remote possibility of half-siblings somehow meeting up, unaware of their common ancestry, and having a relationship. Not only that, but the gene pool is becoming shallower as a result, potentially affecting certain diseases and conditions which are passed on through the father's genes.This has raised the possibility that a donor's sperm may be limited to fewer procedural uses- after successfully 'fathering', say, five children, his sperm would no longer be made available.The "super-spawn" stories are as a result of the increase in popularity in the use of donor sperm as a means of reducing the risks involved in seeking a partner, and also as a means of selecting desirable attributes - some sperm banks have catalogues where you can choose hair and eye colour and even the exam scores of the donor.Do these kids have anything to do with their donor dads? Obviously, the mothers chose to conceive using this method, with no intention of having the donor pop around for coffee and a catch-up.What do you think? Should a sperm donor's sperm be used to generate multiple pregnancies? By: Reuters

You know you love me, I know you care
Just shout whenever, and I'll be there
You are my love, you are my heart
And we will never, ever, ever be apart
Are we an item? Girl, quit playin'

Add me on myspace: http://www.myspace.com/dalandaphne I love getting your messages about what God has done in your life! :) To the girls: Nowadays it seems easy to depend on other people for happiness like your friends, or in most cases boyfriends. I know many of my friends date a lot and at first it's all good and everything but later on down the road they're all depressed or what not. So there has to be something more than just dating or having a boyfriend! But what is it? Listen to the lyrics of this song and i'll tell you!

 BOYS ARE NOT THE ANSWER!!

 We look to guys to fill the void inside

 Treatin' our feelings to a roller coaster ride

 Giving our hearts away to anyone who'll take it

 Realizin' too late that love is too hard to fake it

 We realize too late when our heart's all broken

 Throwin' our hearts away givin' any guy the token

 Throwin' the key away into a pond full of fish

 Treatin' our body like it's just another dish

 Decorating, forgetting it's what's inside that matters

 But we don't realize till our heart shatters

 So I look to Jesus

 He mends the pieces

 Gives me more kisses

 Than Hershey kisses

 He's the HEALER

 My one REDEEMER

 He's the seeker

 and I'm the reeper

 My only true pursuer

 My sweetest lover

2Attempted SolutionsAs far as most socialists are concerned, recognition of these problems is obstructed, not only by their rigid adherence to the labour theory of value but also by their whole conception of economic activity. They fail to realize that industry must be constantly changing: their conception of the socialist community is always static. As long as they are criticizing the capitalist order they deal throughout with the phenomena of a progressive economy and they paint in glaring colours the friction caused by economic change. But they seem to regard all change and not only the friction caused by it, as a peculiar attribute of the capitalist order. In the happy kingdom of the future everything will develop without movement or friction. We can see this best if we think of the picture of the entrepreneur which is generally drawn by socialists. In such a picture the entrepreneur is characterized only by the special way he derives his income. Clearly any analysis of the capitalist order must take as its central point not capital nor the capitalists but the entrepreneur. But Socialism, including Marxian Socialism, sees in the entrepreneur someone alien to the process of production, someone whose whole work consists in the appropriation of surplus value. It will be sufficient to expropriate these parasites to bring about a socialist society. The recollection of the liberation of the peasants and the abolition of slavery hovers vaguely in Marx's mind and even more so in the minds of many other socialists. But they fail to see that the position of the feudal lord was quite different from that of the entrepreneur. The feudal lord had no influence on production. He stood outside the process of production: only when it was finished did he step in with a claim to a share in the yield. But in so far as the lord of the manor and the slave owner were also leaders of production they retained their position even after the abolition of serfdom and slavery. The fact that henceforward they had to give the workers the value of their labour did not change their economic function. But the entrepreneur fulfils a task which must be performed even in a socialist community. This the Socialist does not see; or at least refuses to see. Socialism's misunderstanding of the entrepreneur degenerates into idiosyncrasy whenever the word speculator is mentioned. Even Marx, unmindful of the good resolutions which animated him, proceeds entirely along "petty bourgeois" lines in this connection and his school has even surpassed him. All socialists overlook the fact that even in a socialist community every economic operation must be based on an uncertain future, and that its economic consequence remains uncertain even if it is technically successful. They see in the uncertainty which leads to speculation a consequence of the anarchy of production, whilst in fact it is a necessary result of changing economic conditions. The great mass of people are incapable of realizing that in economic life nothing is permanent except change. They regard the existing state of affairs as eternal; as it has been so shall it always be. But even if they were in a position to envision the πάντα ΄ρεῑ (everything simple or all so easy) they would be baffled by the problems to be solved. To see and to act in advance, to follow new ways, is always the concern only of the few, the leaders. Socialism is the economic policy of the crowd, of the masses, remote from insight into the nature of economic activity. Socialist theory is the precipitate of their views on economic matters—it is created and supported by those who find economic life alien, and do not comprehend it. Among socialists only Saint-Simon realized to some extent the position of the entrepreneurs in the capitalistic economy. As a result he is often denied the name of Socialist. The others completely fail to realize that the functions of entrepreneurs in the capitalist order must be performed in a socialist community also. This is reflected most clearly in the writings of Lenin. According to him the work performed in a capitalist order by those whom he refused to designate as "working" can be boiled down to "Auditing of Production and Distribution" and "keeping the records of labour and products." This could easily be attended to by the armed workers, "by the whole of the armed people."91 Lenin quite rightly separates these functions of the "capitalists and clerks" from the work of the technically trained higher personnel, not however missing the opportunity to take a side thrust at scientifically trained people by giving expression to that contempt for all highly skilled work which is characteristic of Marxian proletarian snobbishness. "This recording, this exercise of audit," he says, "Capitalism has simplified to the utmost and has reduced to extremely simple operations of superintendence and book-entry within the grasp of anyone able to read and write. To control these operations a knowledge of elementary arithmetic and the drawing of correct receipts is sufficient."92 It is therefore possible straight-way to enable all members of society to do these things for themselves.93 This is all, absolutely all that Lenin had to say on this problem; and no socialist has a word more to say. They have no greater perception of the essentials of economic life than the errand boy, whose only idea of the work of the entrepreneur is that he covers pieces of paper with letters and figures. It was for this reason that it was quite impossible for Lenin to realize the causes of the failure of his policy. In his life and his reading he remained so far removed from the facts of economic life that he was as great a stranger to the work of the bourgeoisie as a Hottentot to the work of an explorer taking geographical measurements. When he saw that his work could proceed no further on the original lines he decided to rely no longer on references to "armed workers" in order to compel the "bourgeois" experts to co-operate: instead they were to receive "high remuneration" for "a short transition period" so that they could set the socialist order going and thus render themselves superfluous. He even thought it possible that this would take place within a year.94 Those socialists who do not think of the socialist community as the strongly centralized organization conceived by their more clearheaded brethren and which alone is logically conceivable, believe that the difficulties confronting the management of industry can be solved by democratic institutions inside undertakings. They believe that individual industries could be allowed to conduct their operations with a certain degree of independence without endangering the uniformity and the correct co-ordination of industry. If every enterprise were placed under the control of a workers' committee, no further difficulties could exist. In all this there is a whole crop of fallacies and errors. The problem of economic management with which we are here concerned lies much less in the work of individual industries than in harmonizing the work of individual concerns in the whole economic system. It deals with such questions as dissolving, extending, transforming and limiting existing undertakings and establishing new undertakings—matters which can never be decided by the workers of one industry. The problems of conducting an industry stretch far beyond the individual concern. State and municipal Socialism have supplied enough unfavourable experience to compel the closest attention to the problem of economic control. But etatists in general have treated this problem no less inadequately than those who have dealt with it in Bolshevik Russia. General opinion seems to regard the main evil of communal undertakings to be due to the fact that they are not run on "business" lines. Now rightly understood this catchword could lead to a correct view on the problem. Communal enterprise does indeed lack the spirit of the business man, and the very problem for Socialism here is to create something to put in its place. But the catchword is not understood in this way at all. It is an offspring of the bureaucratic mind: that is to say it comes from people for whom all human activity represents the fulfillment of formal official and professional duties. Officialdom classifies activity according to the capacity for undertaking it formally acquired by means of examinations and a certain period of service. "Training" and "length of service" are the only things which the official brings to the "job." If the work of a body of officials appears unsatisfactory, there can be only one explanation: the officials have not had the right training, and future appointments must be made differently. It is therefore proposed that a different training should be required of future candidates. If only the officials of the communal undertaking came with a business training, the undertaking would be more business-like. But for the official who cannot enter into the spirit of capitalist industry this means nothing more than certain external manifestations of business technique: prompter replies to inquiries, the adoption of certain technical office appliances, which have not yet been sufficiently introduced into the departments, such as typewriters, copying machines, etc., the reduction of unnecessary duplication, and other things. In this way "the business spirit" penetrates into the offices of communal enterprise. And people are greatly surprised when these men trained on these lines, also fail, fail even worse than the much-maligned civil servants, who in fact, show themselves superior at least in formal schooling. It is not difficult to expose the fallacies inherent in such notions. The attributes of the business man cannot be divorced from the position of the entrepreneur in the capitalist order. "Business" is not in itself a quality innate in a person; only the qualities of mind and character essential to a business man can be inborn. Still less is it an accomplishment which can be acquired by study, though the knowledge and the accomplishments needed by a business man can be taught and learned. A man does not become a business man by passing some years in commercial training or in a commercial institute, nor by a knowledge of book-keeping and the jargon of commerce, nor by a skill in languages and typing and shorthand. These are things which the clerk requires. But the clerk is not a business man, even though in ordinary speech he may be called a "trained business man." When these obvious truths became clear in the end the experiment was tried of making entrepreneurs, who had worked successfully for many years, the managers of public enterprises. The result was lamentable. They did no better than the others; furthermore they lacked the sense for formal routine which distinguishes the life-long official. The reason was obvious. An entrepreneur deprived of his characteristic role in economic life ceases to be a business man. However much experience and routine he may bring to his new task he will still only be an official in it. It is just as useless to attempt to solve the problem by new methods of remuneration. It is thought that if the managers of public enterprises were better paid, competition for these posts would arise and make it possible to select the best men. Many go even further and believe that the difficulties will be overcome by granting the managers a share in the profits. It is significant that these proposals have hardly ever been put in practice, although they appear quite practicable as long as public undertakings exist alongside private enterprises, and as long as the possibility of economic calculation permits the ascertainment of the result achieved by the public enterprise which is not the case under pure Socialism. But the problem is not nearly so much the question of the manager's share in the profit, as of his share in the losses which arise through his conduct of business. Except in a purely moral sense the property-less manager of a public undertaking can be made answerable only for a comparatively small part of the losses. To make a man materially interested in profits and hardly concerned in losses simply encourages a lack of seriousness. This is the experience, not only of public undertakings but also of all private enterprises, which have granted to comparatively poor employees in managerial posts rights to a percentage of the profits. It is an evasion of the problem to put one's faith in the hope that the moral purification of mankind, which the socialists expect to occur when their aims are realized, will of itself make everything perfectly right. Whether Socialism will or will not have the moral effect expected from it may here be conveniently left undecided. But the problems with which we are concerned do not arise from the moral shortcomings of humanity. They are problems of the logic of will and action which must arise at all times and in all places.

Tasty food, restaurant level in a pub atmosphere, very friendly service. I'd recommend you stop and experience this 'little bit of Italy' you won't regret it.
This is a kind of funny place, a cross between a sports bar with big TVs and a dark-wood English pub, but in a little Italian seaside town. The food is also a bit confused, with hamburgers and chicken nuggets mixed in with traditional pastas and bruschettas. The outdoor seating is set above a parking garage and next to a... More
This is an awesome restaurant. They have a great and varied menu and their cocktails are simply superb. The service is second to none. I have nothing but good things to say about this awesome pub. You definitely have to go here if you are in the Vico Equense area!

Focus on the state, but don't focus too much on the state. There is some great talent in Iowa for next years recruiting though
Another great article from the Omaha World Herald.
"It's not the kids that you lose in recruiting that hurt you," Rhoads said. "It's the kids that you get that you miss on. Everybody loses kids to somebody else, but the ones that you get that you weren't right on, that you didn't evaluate correctly, those are the ones that really get you."
Coach gets the importance of player RETENTION and LT development - that's the way 2 and 3 star players turn into 4 and 5 star contributors. Now let's hope he and his staff can deliver.
A "great" article? Gah! They just had to throw the Cornhuskers into it! :skeptical: :biglaugh:
Seriously, not a bad article, but the program won't live or die on the walkons. They have to get quality athletes across the board, and keep them in school for four or five years.
Same company does own both papers.
They talk about Kroul and King as if they were diamond-in-th-rough walkons. As 3-star recruits, we knew they would be good, we just weren't competitive in recruiting them (that was before Cheezwiz). The question for roads is not how does he better evaluate instate talent than Ferentz (although i hope he does a better job of it than Mac), but rather how does he out-sell Ferentz. Show me that, then I will be excited.
Good read!
Agree and disagree. I'm not too caught up in stars (as in not at all) and though they were 3's they were jumping positions from 230 lb Lbers to D-tackles. The key for Iowa is seeing where they project and if they "can"! They signed several TE's and Lbers again this year that will move positions.
Making stars almost moot!
The most important thing in that article was the stat about Iowans in the NFL. We, per capita, are 11th in putting guys into the league. This state produces a quality of player that is very much under appreciated. Grab a few speedy dudes from Texas/Florida and fill the rest with Iowa kids...thats a winner.

In an interview with Jason Malloy of The Guardian, Brad Richards said this about the acquisition of Rick Nash..."It's what we need. He's one of the best scorers and power forwards in the league. He brings us size and goal scoring."...ya think? Besides Lundqvist, Richards has to be the happiest guy on the team as he has another stud winger to distribute the puck to while Gaborik recovers from his shoulder surgery.On the pressure adding a Rick Nash to the Rangers line-up brings..."We're not going to hide from any of that here in this city. We want to be better anyway, no matter what, but you add a guy like him for sure, the bull's-eye is going to be on us this year."...actually with the lack of hockey coverage in New York, they probably could hide from it.H/T to reader @lazydefense.Speaking of Richards, check out this schwag he received from Calvin Klein...

Research & Scholarship
Current Research and Scholarly Interests
Our laboratory uses genomic approaches to investigate the pathogenesis and biology of human cancer, and to identify strategies for improved cancer diagnosis, prognostication and patient management. Technologies include DNA microarrays, deep sequencing, and RNAi screens, and additional insight is provided by the biocomputational integration of different data types.
Active areas of investigation include: (1) Characterizing molecular subtypes of prostate cancer to identify biomarkers for risk-assessment; (2) Identifying recurrent DNA copy number alterations and rearrangements in common epithelial tumor types (e.g. breast, prostate, lung, colon, and pancreatic cancers) to discover new cancer genes; (3) Understanding the role of altered chromatin remodeling and "lineage-dependent" oncogenes in tumorigenesis; and (4) Investigating mechanisms underlying genomic instability and the shaping of cancer genomes.

US ruling reopens old 'Troubles' in Northern Ireland
A Boston College research project meant to collect testimony about Troubles-era crimes may now be a political time-bomb for Northern Ireland, thanks to a federal appeals court ruling.
In an unprecedented move, Pope Benedict XVI summoned all 24 of Ireland's bishops to the Vatican to discuss the fallout from two reports that Catholic priests in Ireland sexually abused children for decades and that church officials covered up the behavior.

Abbaye de Tournus
Abbaye de Tournus : Michelin's recommendations
Initially devoted to St Valerian, a Christian from Asia Minor who travelled to Tournus to convert the people in the 2C, the abbey changed patron saint in the early 9C, following the arrival of monks from Noirmoutier fleeing Norsemen. They brought with them the relics of St Philibert, who had founded the abbey of Jumièges in Normandy and died at Noirmoutier in 685. The abbey enjoyed a century of prosperity before being destroyed by fire during a Hungarian invasion in 937; it was rebuilt but abandoned a few years later. In 949, Abbot Stephen, a former prior, returned to Tournus and began rebuilding; the work was finished in the 12C, producing one of the most beautiful parts of the church. Damaged several times over the centuries, it was restored and remodelled until it was sacked by the Huguenots in 1562. Turned into a collegiate church in 1627, the abbey became a parish church in 1790, thus escaping destruction.

UK's FootPatrol has their stock in ready to go (for Black Friday, that is), so check out these sweet new 'on-feet' pictures below and as the official release date comes closer and closer, let us know how many pairs of these babies you plan on stocking!

these will be my first pair of retros i can actually buy at full price and keep! lol ive been saving for months now my parents dont buy me expensive sneakers.
where will be possible buy that pair on the release day..mainly e-shop which is shipping to states of EU :)
got them already since last monday, quality looks mad nice and better than the previous releases of JB lately.
god damn these look so good! im so lucky im a Nike employee! employee store here i come!!!!!!!!!
I'm sad that I have to pass these up, but I'll just have to sacrifice and stick to my CDP's and get these for my sisters.
I cant wait my folks at footlocker always holds it down for me, they already holding my 2 pairs like always.
you only paid 6dollars more so you got a good deal after tax 174.00 in New Orleans
180 isn't even that bad though! If I had $180 (broke azz college kid) right now, I would definitely do it!
I almost got arrested for whipping one of the managers ass at a Footlocker for holding a sneaker in my size for one of his friends..after being the second person in line, standing for hours??? Then for you to tell me "we dont have anymore size 12's" when you just sold one shoe and it was a size 9? Oh fuck that, somebody had to catch one lol...But in all seriousness, i hate shit like that, it should be first come, first serve. That holding shoes stuff isn't cool.
Its ok if your broke, cuz im rick ross and im rich as hell! these shoes make gay people clip their toe-nails thats how fucking good these shoes look!!! ah I remember when gary payton wore these to the all-star game back in 1987!
Well my boy hold Foams for me since everyone in CT fucking wants them!!! but i usually end up going right before they open to get my pair & chill there
Rosie...I thought you shop at Payless Shoes. And, you're claiming rich? Oh yeah, Gary Payton wasn't even drafted yet in the NBA in '87 nor did your Ben Wallace.
Over the past six nights, i've been to the nba finals and won six rings with your girl. All those balls I dropped in her hoop, i just couldnt stop f*cking her. I just hope i dont get another seizure from screwing her like that again

East Fife entertain table-topping Queen of the South looking for their first win in seven games but they will need to secure it without defender Steven Campbell (ankle).
Scott Durie misses out through suspension, with Gareth Wardlaw still not yet ready to return to first-team action after illness.
New Bayview boss Billy Brown said: "Queen of the South are strong on the pitch and off it where my former player Allan Johnston has done a great job, but we will be looking to upset them.
"We had a good run of results that took us into a play-off place and need to get back to form as soon as possible. It is a big ask to beat them but we will be aiming for the win.''
Runaway leaders Queen of the South travel with winger Willie Gibson (ankle) in their squad for the first time since Boxing Day.
New striker signing Michael Paton is also added to the party.
Midfielder Ian McShane remains sidelined with a hip problem, with player-manager Allan Johnston telling his men not to be lured in by the Fifers' six-game run without a win.
Johnston explained: "The reports we have on East Fife have all said the same thing in that their performances have been a lot better than the results they have picked up.
"They may have slipped down the table but any team that can draw with Alloa and Brechin City must have something about them.
"They gave us a tough afternoon at their place in August and will do so again in this one.''

With my three children that is!
One is gonna knock you out if you upset him ….
One is gonna stand upside down if you upset him …
And one rarely gets upset ….
When I went to go to online college and spent near two years working on my Bachelors Degree in Business Management I never once tried to get any scholarships. Of course I got grant money and loans which I must find a way to pay back, without a degree mind you. We won't go off topic with that discussion regarding my online college experience, because today I want to discuss college scholarships.
Like I said I didn't use any scholarships nor did I apply for any when I was looking into my online college courses because I was completely clueless and when dealing with a financial aid department virtually it makes it so much hard to understand the financial end of college courses. I recently found out there are college grants and so I had applied for a lot of those and ended up with I think the normal type of grants just about everyone gets, don't ask me what they are called, I was clueless with the financial end of this college stuff.
I hear there are a lot of minority scholarships available as well, but I am not considered a minority so that doesn't really apply to me, but I am sure it may apply to some of you who are reading this article. So today I ask, did you use or are you planning to use scholarships for your college education?

All opinions are based on that of my own. Product was provided free, but opinion is MINE 100%.
I can't believe we are over half way through the year 2010, time flies when you are having fun, right? Or building a business and blog and family, but anyways … as the year flies by I find myself wanting to make sure that all my accounting records are up to date so that at end of year when I have to file that tax return I am ready to do it fast and accurately. Nothing is worse than the end of year coming along and not having all your business records in an organized order.
I love to stay organized so I use a software program to keep attract of all my business income whether from this blog or my actual DBA Brandy Ellen's Business Solutions, a virtual assistant business. It is important to have help with tax returns if you don't understand them even if you are simply filing a personal tax return. There are many financial planning and accountant places that can offer you their services to assist you in making sure that tax return is filed correctly and on time every year.
Whether you are in the United States or another country there are accountants in New Hampshire, Connecticut and even accountants in sydney. It's all a matter of seeking out the right accountant for your needs. So tell me, do you use an accountant and how do you like using them to keep your financial parts of business in order?
I teach my children that nothing in life is fair, seriously. If life were always fair and things were always the right way and unexpected situations didn't arise then life would be completely boring and not worth my time in all honesty! I love the ups and downs of life, it is what keeps me moving forward and staying positive.
The point of me bringing up the fact that life isn't fair and that sometimes unexpected things occur is because recently I hosted a local giveaway and yet a person who didn't even enter the giveaway, nor has visited my site in the past by the sounds of his letter, had to complain and actually take time of out his day to research the situation.
The situation; a local giveaway for NH people or those who were able to drive to NH on a particular day. Low, low entries on this giveaway so the last day of the giveaway I put a notice up on Facebook to try to draw attention of the locals I have on there. Granted many of my Facebook friends are blog buddies and business people or clients for my virtual assistant business, but a handful are people from New Hampshire. So a person I went to high school with entered the giveaway, making it 12 entries and only two people who had entered. The odds were the one person who entered for so many days in a row would win, I seriously was tweeting with her one day saying she probably would end up winning because really odds were in her favor even after this other person I know entered.
The person who ended up winning was the last person who entered, the person who only completed a few entries on the last day of the giveaway. I can see how this may cause concern to maybe the other person who entered the giveaway … maybe .. I mean giveaway winners are all chosen using Random.org so who the heck knows what number it is going to generate. I have had that program generate number 1 of 158 comments or number 157, you just never know. Sometimes even the entry number Random.org chooses is a person who only entered the giveaway one time rather than someone who entered multiple times. It's a number game and it's a simple matter of me clicking a generate button to generate a number.
This person who wanted to complain directly to the people I worked with actually went so far as to see my tweet go out on the winner, visit my blog and see who the winner was. Apparently due to the fact that it seemed "odd" in their opinion they took some time to find out that the winner is someone I went to high school with and used to live in the same town I grew up in. Well duh dude, this was a local giveaway, it happens, friends, family members and acquaintances may enter my giveaways. Giveaways on my site are only closed to my immediate family living in my household, not my extended family and friends. Besides not many friends and family members actually enter my giveaways, they usually read my articles believe it or not.
This particular person who won was a great friend of mine in high school but I haven't seen her in a long, long time. I don't even think I have met her daughter who is now 4 years old so seriously if we were such good friends and in some big scheme then why in the world would I not know her daughter?! Anyways, I felt the need to explain myself to the contact I worked with when all they wanted was to know how I choose a winner, because after all I have hosted a ton of giveaways and never been questioned before. Most people who are avid readers of my site, my social media shout outs and know me in person know that lying, cheating and stealing are not my thing, never have been.
Lying and being deceitful gets under my skin so badly that I have left relationships because of it, I have walked out on people I love and never trusted them again. Breaking my trust means you get the cold shoulder from me, I would never in a million years rig a giveaway in any way, shape nor form. I get it, being a blogger who hosts giveaways are held on a high trust level because it's all virtual, but man I run a virtual assistant business and have some current and past clients who know I am a sweet, caring person who usually goes out of the way for anyone.My clients also know they can trust me with their confidential information, so if a random client from a virtual setting can trust me with their important information, then why does some random person off the Internet "streets" feel the need to "check up" on me?!
What I don't get is if this person has this much time on their hands why they are not using their time for something good?! I mean if I had the time to go 'investigate' a blog giveaway to the point that this person did I would seriously be using that time to help children who are running the streets getting into drugs and alcohol or maybe taking my kids out to play. Come on with the time this person took to research a freaking giveaway winner they could have done something a bit more useful.
The moral of this vent is that … you can't please 'em all and I won't ever try to! I may be sweet, I may be caring, I may smile often but when someone wants to act like "life isn't fair" and it's some big surprise to them at an adult age level I must say to them that they find something more useful to do with their time. I let this situation bother me for about 30 minutes, which was way too much of my precious time so I end this here; the only reason I shared this with you all is because I am not the only blogger to have someone complain like this and feel it is unnecessary drama, us bloggers already get a bunch of drama on the back end so please don't make it worse. If you have a a problem why not approach me directly via the contact form on my site and we can have an adult conversation based on respect and compassion?! I have always been one to respect other peoples feelings and opinions, that is ME and will never change.
