Genesis are an English rock band formed in 1967. With approximately 150 million albums sold worldwide, Genesis are among the top 30 highest-selling recording artists of all time.[1] In 1988, the band won a Grammy Award for Best Concept Music Video. The longest-tenured members of Genesis are Phil Collins, Mike Rutherford, and Tony Banks. Peter Gabriel, Anthony Phillips and Steve Hackett were also members of the band in its early days.
Genesis began as a 1960s pop band playing moody, simple keyboard-driven melodies. During the 1970s, they evolved into a progressive rock band, incorporating complex song structures and elaborate instrumentation, while their concerts became theatrical experiences with innovative stage design, pyrotechnics, elaborate costumes and onstage stories. This second phase was characterised by lengthy performances such as the 23 minute "Supper's Ready" and The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway, the 1974 concept album. In the 1980s, the band produced accessible pop music based on melodic hooks; this change of direction gave them their first number one album in the United Kingdom, Duke, and their only number one single in the United States, "Invisible Touch".
Genesis has changed personnel several times. Founding member Anthony Phillips left the band in 1970 due to stage fright. In 1975, Collins, then the band's drummer, replaced Gabriel as lead singer after a lengthy search for a replacement. To facilitate Collins's move to lead vocals during concerts, Bill Bruford, and later Chester Thompson, played drums for the band, with Collins joining in briefly during lengthy instrumental passages. After Phil Collins left the band in 1996, Genesis recruited Ray Wilson (formerly of Stiltskin), who appeared on the 1997 album Calling All Stations. As a result of the commercial failure of Calling All Stations, the band announced an indefinite hiatus. However, in 2007, Banks, Collins and Rutherford reunited for a 20-city tour of Europe and North America, which included a free concert at Rome's Circo Massimo in front of 500,000 fans.

Ginta Toramizu is a 14-year-old junior high schooler who doesn't have a lot going for him: he's near-sighted, doesn't do well in school, he's not good at sports, and to top it off, he's short! But Ginta is a dreamer and has had the same dream 102 times: it's always in the same fantasy world where he is a hero blessed with all the special abilities he lacks in real life. Then one day a mysterious figure appears at his school and summons him - to the world of his dreams!
The epic saga of the War Games continues! In the final match of the fifth battle, Nanashi for Team Mar is up against Galian of the Chess Pieces. There's quite a history between these two - Nanashi is the current leader of Luberia, and Galian just happens to be its former chief. Watch the sparks fly when these two lightning-wielders clash!
Could it actually be the beginning of the end? Princess Snow of Team Mar is captured by the Chess Pieces and taken to the ruthless Queen Diana. Despite being a member down, Team Mar must remain undaunted as they go into the final battle of the War Games. Will they be able to persevere against the Chess Pieces? And what fate awaits Snow in the hands of her evil stepmother Diana?!
The fate of Mar Heaven is on the line in the final showdown of the War Games! Ginta, the leader of Team Mar, must face the most powerful Zodiac Chess Piece of all, the villainous Phantom! Will justice prevail or will the tyranny of the Chess Pieces once again loom over the good people of Mar Heaven?!
Ginta and Team Mar have one final mission: to save Snow from the clutches of evil Queen Diana. The stakes get even higher when Diana announces her ultimate goal: the domination of Ginta's world after she takes over Mar Heaven. And Ginta is devastated when the identity of the Chess King is revealed - an opponent Ginta never imagined he would have to fight!
During their much-deserved feast, Edward tells Ginta the story of a former Cross Guard leader - a man that actually defeated Phantom - but who has long since passed from this world. If Ginta and Jack hope to follow in this ancient hero's footsteps, they must become one with their weapons, and there's only one way to do that - to enter the Gate of Training.
The epic clash of the War Game continues as Ginta and his Mar teammates face of with the deadly Chess Pieces to save Mar Heaven! During a break between battles, Ginta overhears the men discussing their leader, who dies in the previous war against the Chess Pieces. This "Boss" sounds eerily familiar, and Ginta soon realizes that they're talking about his dad!
The battle to save MAR Heaven heats up as the terrifying Phantom and 12 other Knights descend on Reginlief Castle to declare death to the world! But these scare tactics don't work on Ginta. He's more determined than ever to beat the Chess Pieces and save his friends, starting with Ed. Using Babbo version three, the guardian Alice, Ginta manages to lift the curse and separate man from dog!
Ginta and the other members of Team Mar visit the magical land of Kardia, the homeland of their teammate Dorothy. There, they learn about Dorothy's past and how her family history is tragically interlinked with that of Mar heaven. But Ginta is completely taken aback when he discovers the dreadful task that poor Dorothy has been sworn to fulfill!

Fast & Easy Dinner: Sausage-Fruit Kabobs
Fast & Easy Dinner: Sausage-Fruit Kabobs
From Better Homes and Garden magazine 3 Tbsp. spicy brown or Dijon-style mustard Serves 4.
Nothing makes food more fun than serving it on a stick. Both children and grown kids will love these sausage fruit kabobs. Smoked sausage slices are skewered with chunks of crispy apples and fresh zucchini. A sweet honey mustard sauce is delicious for dipping. Although the recipe has you broil the kabobs, they would also be wonderful grilled. To take a look at the recipe, read more.

Former NSU men's basketball coach Don Meyer and current NSU women's basketball coach Curt Fredrickson will be inducted in the South Dakota Sports Hall of Fame at a banquet April 13 at the Sioux Falls Convention Center. Ticket information will be released at a later date.
Other inductees include: golfing great Kris Tschetter, Olympian Rod DeHaven, basketball coaches Gary Munsen, Lyle "Dusty" LeBeaux, football-basketball-track coach Bob Schroeder, basketball player Harold Thune, softball pitcher LeRoy Carlson, referee Pal Christensen and football player/baseball coach James A. "Pev" Evans.
With this class of inductees, the hall will boast a membership of 236.
Meyer coached at Northern State for 11 seasons, retiring in 2010. At that time, he was the winningest men's basketball coach in NCAA history, breaking a record set by Bobby Knight. In a 38-year career, the Wayne, Neb., native and Northern Colorado grad won 923 games and lost 324. At Northern State, his Wolves were 221-104 with two conference titles and five postseason berths. He also coached three years at Hamline (Minn.) University and 24 years at Lipscomb (Tenn.) University, winning an NAIA title in 1986.
Meyer had cancer discovered in his liver and intestines during emergency surgery after a car crash on Sept. 5, 2008, in which he lost one of his legs. At the 2009 ESPY Awards, Meyer was awarded the Jimmy V Award For Perseverance. Meyer was the 2010 recipient of the John Bunn Award, given by the Basketball Hall of Fame for significant contributions to the sport. Tennessee's Pat Summitt, the winningest women's NCAA coach, cited Meyer as a major influence on her development as a coach.
Fredrickson, an Aberdeen Central and Northern State grad, is the second-winningest active NCAA Division II women's basketball coach with 711 wins in 33 seasons entering the 2012-13 season. He led Northern State to NAIA Division II titles in 1992 and 1994 and a runner-up finish in 1993. He has led NSU to six Northern Sun Intercollegiate Conference titles and six runner-up finishes. He led NSU to 45 consecutive wins from 1993-95.
Fredrickson will be inducted into the NAIA Hall of Fame in March. Also a longtime outstanding pitcher/hitter in amateur baseball, he is the only player in state amateur baseball history with more than 250 home runs and more than 250 pitching victories. He is second on the all-time home run list and third on the list for pitching wins. He was MVP of the 1977 state tourney, winning four games to help Aberdeen C&R to the state title.
- Tschetter, a Sioux Falls Washington High grad, played more than 20 years on the LPGA Tour, starting in 1988. The former Texas Christian University standout won almost $3 million on Tour. Her only Tour victory came in the 1992 Northgate Computer Classic, though she and Billy Andrade teamed to win the 1991 JC Penney Classic, an unofficial mixed team event. Tschetter has finished second in two majors, the 1997 Nabisco Dinah Shore and the 1996 U.S. Open. In all, she had 10 runner-up finishes and 50 top-10 finishes.
- DeHaven, a Huron High and South Dakota State grad, was the entire U.S. marathon team at the 2000 Summer Olympics in Sydney, Australia. He also was the top American finisher at the 1999 World Championships in Seville, Spain. He also qualified for the 2004 Olympic trials, but an injury kept him from competing. He also competed in the 1,500 at the 1988 Olympic trials and the 10,000 at the 1996 trials. At SDSU, he won the NCAA Division II indoor title in the 1,500 in 1985 and finished in the top 5 in the 1,500 outdoors three times. He set seven school track records. In cross country, he won the North Central Conference title all four years and led the Jackrabbits to the 1985 NCAA Division II title. In all, DeHaven earned 16 All-America certificates and won 20 individual NCC championships.
- Munsen, a White Lake High and Dakota State grad, is one of the state's most prolific basketball coaches in terms of both wins and state titles. He coached boys basketball at Mitchell for 39 years, retiring after the 2011-12 season. His Kernels won nine state titles, including three in a row (1984-86), and were runners-up five times. His career record (including three years at Marion) was 672-254. The team won 40 straight games from 1984-86. No South Dakota basketball coach has won more state titles than Munsen.
- LeBeaux, a 1971 Oglala Community School grad, has been one of the state's most successful girls and boys basketball coaches for the past 25 years. He began as a varsity coach in 1987 at Red Cloud, where he guided the girls team to its first state tourney appearance. Over the years, he has coached the boys and girls teams at Red Cloud and Pine Ridge and the boys team at Little Wound. Entering the 2012-13 season, his teams have an overall record of 529-164 (289-91 boys and 239-74 girls). He has taken 18 teams to the state tourney.
- Carlson, of Sioux Falls, was perhaps the state's greatest fastpitch pitcher. His legendary pitching duels with Paul Ferrie attracted the largest crowds ever for fastpitch in South Dakota. His organized softball career began with Sioux Falls Sunshine in 1941. After four years in the U.S. Navy, he returned to Sioux Falls, pitching for five years and helping his team to state VFW titles in 1948-50 and a state ASA title in 1951. From 1952-79, he pitched in Iowa, first in Sheldon and then in Sioux City. He led his teams to five Iowa state titles and was named most valuable pitcher of the state tourney three times. He holds nearly every major pitching record in the Iowa ASA tourney book. He retired from active pitching in 1979 at age 54.
- Christensen, a Yankton High and Yankton College grad, refereed more than 6,000 high school and college events in a career that spanned more than 50 years. He reffed high school boys and girls basketball for 35 years and prep football for 50 years, starting in 1947. He refereed in the North Central Conference — 27 years in basketball and 35 in football. He reffed in the SDIC even longer: 39 years. He reffed at the first state girls basketball tourney as well as the first state football championships.
- Evans, a 1951 Rapid City High grad, was selected as a tackle on the state's all-time high school football team selected in 1969. Rapid City High lost only once in Evans' three years. At Nebraska, he played for four years (offensive and defensive tackle) and was a starting tackle for 1955 Orange Bowl team (there were only four bowl games in those years). He also kicked for the Huskers, and he was offered pro tryouts as a kicker. He also was an assistant football coach one year at Nebraska, three years at South Dakota Mines and two years at Black Hills State.
- Thune led Murdo to the 1937 state "B" finals, where he was the top scorer in the tourney with 35 points). After one year at Hibbing (Minn.) Junior College, he went to Minnesota, where he was the team MVP as a junior (1940-41 season). He was a key reserve and part-time starter as a sophomore and a starting guard as a junior and senior. He averaged 4.5 points a game as a junior and 5.8 as a senior. The Gophers were 2-8, 11-9 and 15-6 in his three seasons. In 1963, he began a 20-year career in teaching and coaching at Murdo HS.
- Schroeder, a 1941 Miller High grad, was an extremely successful high school football and basketball coach at Miller for 30 years. In football, his teams were 151-80-11 with eight undefeated seasons and 13 conference titles in 30 seasons. His teams had unbeaten streaks of 29, 19 and 18 games. His 1946 team was one of the highest scoring teams in the nation, scoring 371 points in eight games. That team did not allow a point in any game and in fact did not allow opposing teams closer than the 30-yard line. The team did not punt during the entire season.

Podcast: Charting a response to climate change in the Adirondacks
Nov 19, 2008 — Researchers, local government leaders, and state officials gathered this week in Tupper Lake to talk about the impact of global climate change in the Adirondacks. The conference at the Wild Center offered a snapshot of the best new science on global warming. Organizers also hope to chart local strategies for reducing carbon emissions in the region.

Building a future
My responsibilities or projects involved creating bidding contracts for general contractors."
In the summer of 2010, Kyle Miller accepted an internship with Charis Community Housing in Atlanta, Georgia, a Christian community development ministry that works with disenfranchised neighborhoods to restore wholesome, viable, self-sustaining, mixed income housing.
When reflecting on his responsibilities, Miller said, "My manager allowed me to float throughout the organization so I could experience all the aspects of the business. My responsibilities or projects involved creating bidding contracts for general contractors. I also created a new homeowner's manual and photo documentation for the city of Atlanta historic board. It definitely confirmed that my passions are taking me to the non-profit world, but it also showed me that in order to succeed in the non-profit world I need to really work on developing strong for-profit business skills as well."
The Enterprise Resource Center played a major role in Miller's internship. He describes its involvement: "What the ERC does is provide the framework for discovering and pursuing your career goals. They also offer the tools and the advice for taking the first step. I would definitely recommend the ERC."

Born on April 17, 1837, in Hartford, Connecticut, J.P. Morgan would later become one of the most famous financiers in business history. In 1871, Morgan began his own private banking company, which later became known as J.P. Morgan & Co., one of the leading financial firms in the country. Morgan died on March 31, 1913, in Rome, Italy. He was hailed as a master of finance at the time of his death, and continues to be considered one of the country's leading businessmen.
Famous Financier
Financier, art collector and philanthropist John Pierpont Morgan, best known as J.P. Morgan, was born on April 17, 1837, in Hartford, Connecticut. The son of a banker, Morgan went into the family business and became one of the most famous financiers in history. After working for his father, he started his own private banking company in 1871, which later became known as J.P. Morgan & Co.
His company became one of the leading financial firms in the country. It was so powerful that even the U.S. government looked to the firm for help with the depression of 1895. The company also assisted in thwarting the 1907 financial crisis.
During his career, his wealth, power, and influence attracted a lot of media and government scrutiny. During the late 1800s and even after the turn of the century, much of the country's industries were in the hands of a few powerful business leaders, especially Morgan. He was criticized for creating monopolies by making it difficult for any business to compete against his. Morgan dominated two industries in particular -- he helped consolidate railroad industry in the East and formed the United States Steel Corporation in 1901.
A crucial material in the extensive growth of the nation, U.S. Steel became the world's largest steel manufacturer. The government, concerned that Morgan had created a monopoly in the steel industry, filed suit against the company in 1911. The following year, Morgan and his partners became the subject of a congressional investigation by the Pujo Committee in 1912.
Personal Life
Morgan had many interests beyond the world of banking. He enjoyed sailing and participated in a number of America's Cup yacht races. He was an ardent art collector, creating one of the most significant collections of his time. He later donated his art collection to the Metropolitan Museum of Art, and his collection of written works to the Morgan Library—both in New York City.
Morgan's first marriage to Amelia Sturges was brief. She died a few months after their 1860 wedding. Five years later, Morgan married Frances Tracy. The couple had four children: John Pierpont Jr., Louisa, Juliet and Anne.
Morgan died on March 31, 1913, in Rome, Italy. At the time of his death, he was hailed as a master of finance. Today, Morgan is considered one of America's leading businessmen, and is credited for helping to shape the nation into what it is today.

Captains of Industry
America wasn't discovered, it was built. At the end of the Civil War, America was seen as a failing experiment in democracy; a nation fraying from the inside and at war with itself. Just 50 years later, the United States was the greatest superpower the world had ever seen. This landmark transition was due in no small part to a group of business-savvy, innovative young men: John D. Rockefeller, Cornelius Vanderbilt, Andrew Carnegie, Henry Ford, J.P. Morgan and Thomas Edison. These men constructed a bold vision for a modern America and transformed the greatest industries of our time, including oil, rail, steel, shipping, automobiles and finance; they are unequivocally America's first captains of industry.

The Apple rumor mill churns out iPad Mini details Video
The Apple rumor mill churns out iPad Mini details Video Transcript
-Hey everyone. Welcome to the Inside Scoop. I'm Kara Tsuboi CNET.com joined by staff writer Josh Lowensohn. And Josh, today we're talking about the iPad Mini rumors. Tell us where we stand with the rumor now. -Sure, the big rumor is that we will hear about it in the next couple of weeks. Major of the event, you know, everybody kind of thought that iPhone that was the last one but-- -For the year. -Exactly. This could be a kind of surprise event in mid month and maybe we just see a release later this month of the actual device. -So, this is the first offering in this mini space from Apple. When we say, mini, how mini are we even talking? -Sure. So we are talking about the device about 7.85 inches so with the current iPad is 9.78 inches, so it's-- you know, definitely smaller, a little bit closer to what we see from some devices like the Kindle Fire and, you know, the whole idea is just getting something that's very much like an iPad but smaller. -Okay. And other hardware specs, color-- anything else? -Sure, you know, actually been some kinda leaked pictures or what might be leaked pictures that kind of have a white or black style, you know, not very exciting [unk] sort of colors that you got the whole iPad family. But basically just a very simple kind of portrait device with a metal back and of course the glass front, all the same ports, maybe the new lighting port obviously, things like that. -I'm glad you brought the iPad. Where does this new mini fall into the whole spectrum of pricing for Apple's gadgets? -Sure. -Between the iPod and the iPad? Where is it go? -That's kind of an interesting question because, if you look at the new iPod Touch, they started $300. -Wow. -And then if you look at the bottom line iPad which is actually the iPad 2, it's $399. So presumably it will be somewhere between them but, you know, the whole idea of having this smaller tablet is that they would actually be cheaper than the big tablets, and if that's a $300 device competing against something that's $150, I mean they're gonna have to put it somewhere in the $200 level. -So release hopefully or announcement and then release hopefully in the next couple of weeks. I'm sure the release will obviously happen before the holiday shopping season. -Exactly, I mean this is all waiting up to November. This is when people are buying those gifts for Christmas and, you know, Kwanzaa and whatever else, they gonna get that out there. -Awesome. Thanks so much Josh Lowensohn. I'm Kara Tsuboi, thanks for watching the Inside Scoop.

Free standard shipping on full-size orders $50+
I definately face palmed on this this is over the top and useless I have worn it once totally for laughs and that's what it got. I will admit it's a good conversation starter
This is one item I just don't get. I can see the novelty value, but would never find myself wearing this for more than a few seconds. And I got the black one which was more passable, the grey one would never work.
i know im not alone here from reading the other reviews, but i cant be too harsh, it is a nice concept it could have worked really well, but it was just executed really badly, the materials seem really cheap and it sort of looks like a kids toy to go along with a fake mobile phone.
when i first spotted it in the Birchbox i immediately thought "Awesome Birchbox put a watch in" then i read the card and was just disappointed.
i would never in a million years pay $40 for this maybe $2.50, its ridiculously overpriced.
usually Birchbox gets everything spot on in the boxes but they really missed the mark with this item.
Worst item to ever come in a monthly box. Such a let down for the December box and the final box of the year.
I think I saw something like this at the Dollar Store once.
When you really want to show you have too much money. The product is poorly manufactured and reads more as a protective watch case rather than a bracelet. This would make a great deal more sense. I have not been able to even give this away.
This is not a good product at all! It broke right when I took it out of the box. I do not think it looks like a rolex and I don't think it is a good product.
Don't get it. looks stupid. wouldn't give this to anyone. straight to the trash for this weird product. seriously who thought this was a good idea?
Who would wear this? And why would they wear it? I love Birchbox, but this really missed the mark. I can see I am not alone from the other reviews.
When I first saw this in the "Sneak Peek" I was like "oh, that's an interesting idea". Then I got one in my December Birchbox...
I have to say, I really don't get it. The product was too small to slip over my hand comfortably but then it was too big for my wrist. It would have been better to have some sort of adjustable band or clasp.
The quality of the material was not great either. After a few attempts to put the "accessory" on, it broke. I really can't see myself ever wanting to use something like this in the future.
This is the most ridiculous thing that has ever come in my monthly box. Not only is it pretentious, but just plain useless.

The sys admin's daily grind: Archivemail
Charly loves to be organized, but he also likes to have access to mail that reached him when the dinosaurs were still roaming the earth.
Occasionally I need to delve into my mailboxes for an antique message, just to prod my memory. Because my mail client has a full text index of the inbox, I usually find the information I'm looking for within a couple of seconds. Unfortunately, this flush of success is often a delicate thing: With 300 messages flooding in every day, not counting mailing lists, the indexer often gives up the fight. And because many messages have bulky attachments, I genuinely need to clean out my modern day equivalent of the Augean stables.

What is wrong with my Cold Smoke Generator
Cold Smoke Generator is made from Stainless Steel pipes and can burn wood chips, pellet, branches, and SAW DUST Principle:Inner perforated cylinder is fuel bin of wood pellet, chips, branches, and saw dust. Fuel is lighted on top by a few pieces of hot red charcoal. Air is blown from lower air intake, which passes through circle space between outer and inner cylinders. Also the fresh air enters inner cylinder through holes to burn the fuel. Hot smoke air will rise up and mixe with fresh air. This way smoke temperature is lowered. Fan speed can be tuned stepless by tune AC/DC adapter. Most popular is Type II: Dia.89X400 mm or Dia.3.5"x16" inches Fuel Capacity 1.25 Litres Ex-works US$80 Air and Land (SAL) mail US$60 I sold less than 5 pieces per month on eBay.

Getting positive feedback anywhere is a difficult prospect. I was involved in a study in the late 1980's and early 1990's in which people were found and polled as far as their overall satisfaction versus those who sought to tell the company their feelings.
There were a few groups. Those that received their product and had no problems with it or the service Those that received the product and it did not work for them AS THEY ENVISIONED (meaning it was not defective) and had poor customer service. And two other groups in which there were those that received a product and it worked then malfunctioned and either was or was not replaced or fixed with either poor or good customer service. Those that received ****ed up products were polled too. The MOST apathetic group as far as the customer electing to let the company know how they felt was the group in which the product worked as they envisioned and no service problems arose. When they were polled they were happy...they just didn't contact the company or fill out a comment card. The reason why, so the study claimed was, they were owned a product that worked as they envisioned and the payment to the actual company evened the score. The MOST satisfied group that took an initiative to contact the company to tell them what they thought of the product were the ones where there was some problem and a person bonded with them from the company and fixed the problem. This should be you because you are always helping people on here when they get your product and they have minor difficulties setting it up. You should have high marks. The conclusion of the study was that a service problem was an opportunity to establish a relationship with the customer and secure a future buying opportunity. The other thing is this. For the most part Americans, even thought they buy scores of product that are internationally produced, do not like to wait for it. They have to wait for yours and then there is that weird feeling that since they are dealing with someone in a another country, well.... that person is more likely to just give up dealing with them. Your product seems to work well but I have to admit, there seems to be some issue (not due to workmanship) initially with its ease of operation. This is based on what I read here and not being an owner of the product. HOWEVER!!!!! You seem to be there for the customer, so that should account for something. I have a theory and sure, I know you are going to probably say I don't have your product so how can I know... but I am also an EBAY buyer so bare with me. Almost all of us ebay buyers have received a product and suspected it was cheap but gave pos feedback anyway, only to have the product fail and not be able to work it out with the company. Case in point, I bought some small pneumatic tires that looked just like the American versions I was used to... But they were Chinese and they flattened and dry rotted within 90 days. Company would not help me. It was as if the tires were made of biodegradable material. They have 8 of my positive feedbacks on their roll. I can't change that back. Next up, the snazzy chrome 1998 Ford Econoline door handles I bought (Chinese) which all failed... all five of them, with DAYS after installation. The steel was like potmetal. Sadly, they have my positive feedback as well. So in the last few years many of us EBAY buyers have had a "wait and see" attitude. We realized that ebay is the perfect place for sellers that want to sell you their product and have it work until they get the positive feedback. Your product may be a good one but it looks cheap. It may not be made cheap, it just looks cheap from what I can tell. Yes it may work, but we all get burned by products and look at the branding and see that MADE IN CHINA thing on it and suspect it will break. But we also have suspicions of our own products and at times see Japanese and even Korean Autos as superior in fit and finish so it works both way. Of course, had it not been for Nader the Corvair would have prevailed and never ushered in the need for foreign made compact cars to which we have never recovered but that is another story. I stopped giving positive feedback about the time sellers started saying they were not going to give me positive feedback until they got theirs. This is stupid... as my money is the only responsibility I have and they don't ship until they get the money....so I have lived up to my end of the bargain before I get it. The seller's end of the deal is MUCH more complex. Your positive feedback deficit is due to many issues you cannot control and I am not sure making a slicker product will fix it. At least you establish good relationships with your customers. I am considering myself how I am going to handle the sale of my rub on ebay if at all. I think you should make your own website with an ebay redirect.
