How to write a perfect thank you note, again
|| Print |
|Business tips
|Friday, May 24, 2013
One of my most popular articles is "Three Steps to Writing a Perfect Thank You Note." If you already write thank-you notes regularly, it's a great reminder of the basics. For the rest of us who don't, it provides a simple checklist that lets us dramatically increase the likelihood we'll offer thanks in writing — and in the process, we'll discover we're making huge investments in our relationships. Here's a fresh take on the topic, with some guidance on avoiding common errors.
Thank-You Notes Matter
Written thank-you notes matter. A lot. One of the management thinkers I most admire is Mark Horstman of Manager Tools. On a recent visit he confided that he keeps every written thank-you note he's ever gotten. Whenever he gets down or feels the need for inspiration, he re-reads a few. What a great way to use the thank-you notes we get. What a great reminder of how powerful it is to send them.
Own Your Impact
To be a good leader, you need to be effective and intentional about the way you make other people feel. Whatever impact you end up making, you should do it on purpose. Or as the saying goes, "a well bred person never hurts anybody… accidentally." When you step up to being a CEO or a leader, you need to master the basics. Look people in the eye. Shake their hand firmly. Listen like they're the most important person in the world at that moment. Feel, and then show, sincere appreciation. However it's easy when you're new at this to do it badly. If your thank-you seems insincere, you can seem manipulative. That's bad — it undermines the relationship you're trying to build.
Sincere Appreciation
Sincerity is crucial. Stop and really notice what you're grateful for. One of my most common pieces of advice to CEOs and aspiring managers is, end each day by writing down your victories and at least one thing for which you are grateful. I call this your Victory Journal:
When you feel honestly grateful, you can share that feeling honestly. Sadly, most of us aren't practicing gratitude. We end the day looking at our to-do list and focusing on what we didn't do. We focus on the extra work of tomorrow, caused by what went wrong today. Therefore, cultivate a mindset of sincere appreciation. A few years ago in Beaverton I got such consistently great service at one restaurant on three different visits, that I finally insisted on seeing the manager. Turns out he was a traveling restaurant trouble-shooter who makes his living by boosting service. He was obviously very good. I asked him his secrets. Here's one: "I honestly appreciate it when people show up for their shifts, and I express it. I'm enthusiastic, appreciative, and grateful," he said. But… you pay them to show up. Isn't that enough? Why make a big deal of it? (My clients say this sort of silly thing all the time — I was dying to hear his response.) "No, paying them isn't enough. Many times I've had to scramble to cover a shift, when someone didn't show up. When you show up, I don't have to do that, and remembering it makes it easy for me to be sincere in my appreciation," he said. I pressed him further and he admitted he deliberately cultivated this mindset. "Ultimately, how I treat them in the back of the restaurant, is how they'll treat you in the front." I once helped a new manager avoid being fired in his first 90 days. He didn't think any of his people did things right. He focused on their mistakes, and it quickly hurt morale. His boss and I gave him an assignment — to deliberately notice one thing each day that each of his people was doing right. He had to write it down and share it with us both via email — the date, time, location, person, and exactly what behavior he observed. He struggled for three weeks, and finally got the hang of it — and it dramatically improved his rapport with his staff. Cultivate the mindset of gratitude. Notice good things. Only when you notice them, can you appreciate them.
Specificity Breeds Credibility
Here's a bad thank-you — one that can easily be interpreted as insincere:
Even if the recipient believes you, they don't know what they did right, because you don't say. Vague praise comes across as insincere. Here's the outline for a perfect thank-you note.
Three Sincere Sentences
A sincere thank-you will make these three points, in this order:
Here's how to make each point.
Start by anchoring the thank-you with the event and by reminding them of their behavior, by describing it from your perspective. These should almost always involve one or more of the five senses. Sight and hearing are most common in business, but all of them can work.
Examples – "Last Tuesday at the Rotary lunch, you met me at the door with a firm handshake, and you looked me in the eye and smiled." Or, "Yesterday I got to watch as my son opened the present you sent him." Note – you cannot fake the observation. If someone is uncomfortable with being praised — or if they doubt your sincerity — a weak or vague Observation sentence will give them the opening to discount the entire thank-you, and maybe discount your leadership.
Here you must build on the Observation and explain what impact their action had (on you or on someone else). I typically use the word "feel" when describing impact, though any outcome or result is fine. Examples – "You really made me feel welcome." Or, "I wish you could have seen their smiles."
Express your sincere feeling of gratitude. If you can, look deep into the other person and find the character trait that underlies their action. Start with "generosity" and see if you can find some other word that's even more appropriate. This is the place where you say "thank you." Examples – "Your Rotary is fortunate to have so warm-hearted a member as you, and I'm grateful to have your friendship." Or, "I know the kids appreciate how loving and caring you are – as do I."
In these examples, the key elements are highlighted.
Dear Rick:
Yesterday you gave me so many ideas and so much feedback that I filled three pages with notes and I've listened twice to the audio recording I made of the meeting. As a result of your input I know I'll be doing a better job on my proposal — I'm making all three of the changes you suggested, including restructuring the white paper. I'm grateful to have someone so generous as you helping me – thank you.
Dear Jane:
I'm still smiling at the memory of your workshop yesterday — I was amazed to see everyone still on the edge of their seats after four hours. They and I will be handling customer requests very differently now, thanks to your ideas and the drills you ran us through. Your dedication to our improvement is greatly appreciated — thank you.
Dear Chris:
Thank you for bringing us cookies yesterday — they were delicious. Sara said she had never tasted anything as good, and we had to lock half of them away to avoid finishing them all off in one sitting. Your skills as a cook are exceeded only by your generosity as a friend. Thanks.
– Joe
Dear Jim:
This morning I noticed your timecard was once again the first one turned in, with no errors. You've been flawless in your time reporting for 13 pay periods. Since even small errors take time to correct (and we average 1 error per 3 cards), I estimate you've saved my team about 3 hours of work over the past few months. Everyone on my team appreciates your diligence and attention to detail. Thanks.

High-Yield Credit Crashes To 6-Month Lows As Outflows ContinueSubmitted by Tyler Durden on 08/01/2014 11:05 -0500
We have been warning for a while that not only is the high-yield credit market sending a warning but that it is critical for equity investors to comprehend why this is such bad news. This week has seen exuberant equity markets start to catch down to high-yield's warning but today's surge in HY credit spreads to six month wides is a rude awakening. Between outflows, a huge wall of maturities (and no Fed liquidity), and corporate leverage, the reach-for-yield just became an up-in-quality scramble. HY spreads are over 70bps wider than cycle tights implying the S&P 500 should be around 1775. When the easy-money-funded buyback party ends, will you still be dancing?

Take A Dive In The "Dash For Trash" Waterfall With Goldman SachsSubmitted by Tyler Durden on 05/18/2014 17:30 -0500
As we have discussed numerous times, the dash-for-trash in US equities has been insatiable as any and every consequence of screwing up is slowly removed from capitalism (and capital markets). As Goldman's David Kostin notes, companies with weak balance sheets have outperformed peers with strong balance sheets by 49 percentage points during the past two years (89% vs. 40%) with realized volatility of just 7%. Although the trend is daunting - to say the least - Goldman believes it will continue for three reasons...

Dow Dumps To Red For 2014 As Treasury Yields Tumble AgainSubmitted by Tyler Durden on 05/15/2014 15:05 -0500
Despite two desperate attempts to juice stocks overnight via JPY, US equities opened red and got redder. The selling climaxed when Europe closed and stocks rallied handsomely "off the lows" proving Tepper wrong and the rest of CNBC right (right?) The S&P ramped back up perfectly to VWAP (thank you Michelle) as 330ET BTFD'ers ensured it closed back above the all-important 50-day-moving-average. The Dow did not bounce like its higher-beta short-squeezing cousins and dropped back into the red for 2014. Away from stocks, bonds just kept rallying - but everyone said that couldn't happen - to new multi-month low yields for 10Y and 30Y (-13bps on the week). Commodities lost ground with gold back under $1300 as the USD ripped and dipped to close unchanged on the day. VIX popped back over 13 with its biggest rise in 5 weeks.

Goldman Reveals "Top Trade" Reco #5 For 2014: Sell Protection On 7-Year CDX IG21 Junior Mezzanine TrancheSubmitted by Tyler Durden on 12/03/2013 07:22 -0500
If the London Whale trade was JPM selling CDS in tranches and in whole on IG9 and then more, and then even more in an attempt to corner the entire illiquid IG9 market and then crashing and burning spectacularly due to virtually unlimited downside, Goldman's top trade #5 for 2014 is somewhat the opposite (if only for Goldman): the firm is inviting clients to sell CDS on the junior Mezz tranche (3%-7%) of IG21 at 464 bps currently, where Goldman "would apply an initial spread target and stop loss of 395bp and 585bp, respectively. Assuming a one-year investment horizon, the breakeven spread on this trade is roughly 554bp (that is, 90bp wider than where it currently trades)." In other words, Goldman is going long said tranche which in an environment of record credit bubble conditions and all time tights across credit land is once again, the right trade. Do what Goldman does and all that...

Interest Rate Swaps Hit Record High As China Warns "Big Chance Of Bank Failures"Submitted by Tyler Durden on 11/19/2013 22:35 -0500
Overnight repo rates are spiking once again in early trading as the typically smaller banks that are more desperate bid aggressively for whetever liquidity they can find. 5Y Chinese swap rates have also reached a record high as the Yuan reaches its highest since Feb 2005. Chinese authorities are clearly stepping up the rhetoric:
The gambit between the PBOC's liqudity provision and the growing dependence on their "spice" is clear - the question is, of course, will banks send a message (via the markets) to the PBOC or will they self-select (on first-mover's advantage) eradicating the weakest.

"We're Stuck In An Escher Economy Until The Existing Structure Collapses And Is Rebuilt On Stronger Principles"Submitted by Tyler Durden on 11/09/2013 12:26 -0500
1. Even if the economy returns to full employment under existing policies, it won't remain there after (and if) interest rates normalize.
2. Based on today's debt and valuation levels (charts 8-9, for example), rising interest rates will have an even harsher effect than suggested by the 60 year history
3. Contrary to the establishment's "sustainable recovery" narrative, the most plausible outcomes are: 1) interest rates normalize but this triggers another bust, or 2) interest rates remain abnormally low until we eventually experience the mother of all debt/currency crises.
We're stuck in an Escher economy (see below), thanks to the impossibility of the establishment economic view, and this will remain the case until the existing structure collapses and is rebuilt on stronger policy principles.

Is The US Equity Market The Most Expensive In The World?Submitted by Tyler Durden on 10/07/2013 17:42 -0500
Over the weekend, we humbly suggested that the dream of ongoing US equity market multiple expansion may be over. It would appear SocGen not only agrees but finds current valuations very stretched. On the basis of Price-to-Book (valuation) and return-on-equity (profitability), the US equity market is extremely 'expensive'; and "hoping" for further expansion on the RoE to save the day is whimsical given the limits to leverage. Still, despite Obama's sell signal, it appears from today's open that the BTFATH crowd remains alive and well.

The Credit Bubble Is Not Only Back, It Is 94% Bigger Than In 2007Submitted by Tyler Durden on 09/23/2013 08:28 -0500
If the Fed was worried about 'froth' in the markets earlier in the year, then this chart should have them panicking. Of course, as Jim Bullard noted Friday, there is no bubble because everyone knows there is no bubble but judging by the massive surge in covenant-lite loan issuance, there is a bubble in forced demand for leveraged loans. At $188.7 billion, the 2013 issuance of these highly unsafe loans (which have seen huge inflows since the Fed started talking taper back in May) is almost double that of the peak of the last credit bubble in 2007 and is five times the size of 2012 YTD issuance at this time. As Reuters notes, Covenant-lite loans used to be reserved for stronger companies and credits, but are now so common in the U.S. leveraged loan market that investors are becoming wary of some credits with a full covenant package. With corporate leverage at all-time highs, what could go wrong?

Bullard Sees No Asset Bubble... Because All Previous Bubbles Were "No Secret"Submitted by Tyler Durden on 09/20/2013 12:52 -0500
In what is unbelievable hypocrisy and re-writing of history based on 20/20 hindsight, Bullard, in responding to a question of asset bubbles, explained that while all Fed members are "concerned about asset bubbles," they do not see one now. His reasoning is so cognitively dissonant as to be almost comedic:
- "Bubbles Of The Past Were Gigantic And Obvious... Not Now"
So there it is - because the St. Louis Monday-Morning-Quarterbacker can now so clearly see the previous epic bubbles (which the Fed did not see and merely pumped even higher) were obvious and one is not obvious now (unless you actually take a minute or two to consider forward earnings growth and margin expectations in light of lower deficits, unemployment, and global growth; high-yield credit spreads; primary issuance levels; and the fact that corporate leverage is at record highs).

Five Years After Lehman, BIS Ex-Chief Economist Warns "It's Worse This Time"Submitted by Tyler Durden on 09/15/2013 12:17 -0500
The froth is back. As we noted yesterday, corporate leverage has never been higher - higher now than when the Fed warned of froth, and as the BIS (following their "party's over" rant 3 months ago) former chief economist now warns, "this looks like to me like 2007 all over again, but even worse." The share of "leveraged loans" or extreme forms of credit risk, used by the poorest corporate borrowers, has soared to an all-time high of 45% - 10 percentage points higher than at the peak of the crisis in 2007. As The Telegraph reports, ex-BIS Chief Economist William White exclaims, "All the previous imbalances are still there. Total public and private debt levels are 30pc higher as a share of GDP in the advanced economies than they were then, and we have added a whole new problem with bubbles in emerging markets that are ending in a boom-bust cycle." Crucially, the BIS warns, nobody knows how far global borrowing costs will rise as the Fed tightens or "how disorderly the process might be... the challenge is to be prepared." This means, in their view, "avoiding the tempatation to believe the market will remain liquid under stress - the illusion of liquidity."

Record High Grade Leverage Means PIK Toggle LBO Debt Is Back And Worse Than EverSubmitted by Tyler Durden on 09/14/2013 11:13 -0500
If Fed governor Jeremy Stein had concerns about a resurgent credit bubble in February when he wrote his warning about "Overheating in Credit Markets: Origins, Measurement, and Policy Responses" then he should certainly not look at the bubbly ferocity that is taking place in the bond world just half a year after his letter failed to make any dent in the yield-chasing animal spirits.

Why Asian Markets Are Collapsing In 3 Simple ChartsSubmitted by Tyler Durden on 08/22/2013 18:55 -0500
A steady rise in leverage in recent years means Corporate Asia now has the most leveraged balance sheets globally. As Morgan Stanley's Viktor Hjort notes, with Fed liquidity anticipated to slow, now the cycle turns more adverse. Asian corporate balance sheets face a combination of slower growth and higher funding costs. Slower economic growth is putting downward pressure on earnings growth and rising real rates is putting upward pressures on funding costs turning bad macro into even tougher micro. Asian banks are tightening lending standards in their procyclical way but Asian credit markets are facing a fundamental environment that for many corporate borrowers will feel like a recession.

China's Credit Crisis In ChartsSubmitted by Tyler Durden on 08/06/2013 20:19 -0500
The rapid pace of China credit expansion since the Global Financial Crisis, increasingly sourced from the inherently more risky and less transparent "shadow banking" sector, has become a critical concern for the global markets. From the end of 2008 until the end of 2013, Chinese banking sector assets will have increased about $14 trillion. As Fitch notes, that's the size of the entire US commercial banking sector. So in a span of five years China will have replicated the whole US banking system. What we're seeing in China is one of the largest monetary stimuli on record. People are focused on QE in the US, but given the scale of credit growth in China Fitch believes that any cutback could be just as significant as US tapering, if not more. Goldman adds that China stands to lose up to a stunning RMB 18.6trn/$US 3trn. should this bubble pop. That seems like a big enough number to warrant digging deeper...

I was having a pretty bad breakout on my forehead. All my pimples were red and inflamed. Plus, I picked at them(heads up never pick!! Just makes it worse!) I used a little of this stuff on the bumps covered it with a sterile bandaid and bam! In an hour, I was seeing results. No, this stuff does not make the pimple go away, but it does reduce size, inflammation, and redness quickly. 5 stars!!!
2 out of 2 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
i love this stuff! i have horrible breakouts and i'm 32!!! i'm 100% sure i got it from my parents...i remember them picking at their skin well into their 40's. (great huh? so even with diet, facewashes and medications my body always finds a way to break out again!)
i've even been on two full 6 month courses or Accutane! man that stuff is a pain in the butt...with all the blood tests, pregnancy tests, constant quizes to make sure you remember the strict rules, maintaining a super low fat dies (for some reason accutane raises the lipid/fat levels in your blood). it worked while i was on it and then maybe for four to five months after but came back both times.
so i have just accepted that i will have bad skin till i die.... anyways now i wanna tell you what NEOSPORIN does for me. i haven't found a moisterizer or acne healer better than this stuff and i have pretty much tried everything over-the-counter and about half the prescription stuff out there (only because, and most of you who are like me probably already know this, that insurance is VERY unlikely to cover most acne medications because they don't consider it a disease or a real medical problem! even though it surely is! but they especially won't cover name brand stuff unless you have the really good insurance, and if you do your lucky use it before you lose it!)
neopsorin is such a good price and it can be used for ouches and acne scars or pimples or zits that are going away on their own.
i notice a HUGE difference from when i don't use it on my acne scabs to when i do. just two or three days of putting it on my face as i go about my day....(and yes i have had my son and boyfriend stare at me funny and ask me why my face looks wet? i just tell em it's a girly/ beauty thing and they pretty much shrug it off. but unless your lucky enough hide when you have breakouts or are working through them be prepared to have ppl ask whats wrong if you decide to slather on ointment during the day)
its cool when its all done healing cause i can wash my face and as i gently dry the scabbed areas the dead skin will literally slide away and beautifully perfect skin will appear!!!!
it's pretty cool when it happens. i am pretty positive that it has to do with the combination of oils and special moisterizers in the NEOSPORIN ointment that just babies the skin to it's best condition.
sometimes it put it around my eyes before going to bed to see if it'll help with wrinkles. but haven't been doing it long enough to have an almost certain result. when i find out i will definitely post a review regarding that as well.
sorry about my rambling but hope this review helps you all! good luck!!!

Great for bad pimples! Once in a while I get cyst pimples (hard red bump under the skin). I used acne treatments to dry and dry them out until I realized how dry and flaky they were making my skin. One day, I tried putting neosporin on the pimple and covered it up with a band-aid while I slept. The pimple was significantly smaller and less dried-out the next morning. I repeated this for two more nights and my stubborn pimple was almost all gone. Not a miracle cure, but it helps a lot! Any brand will work.
this stuff is the best for open or scabbed pimples!! it will heal it very fast. if possible, reapply it a few times a day. if not, just apply at bedtime. do NOT get the neosporin cream..get the ointment that has vitamin e and cocoa butter in it. it helps the area to heal without a scar or discoloration.
GREAT FOR ACNE! It works better than benzoyl peroxide and it makes my skin super soft. I usually put it on every night. The only thing I don't like is the smell...
I do love neosporin for cuts and burns. I don't see that it makes a different with acne scaring though. I use this on the dry patches on my face and even after I get a waxing or threading. I have extremely sensitive eye areas and I noticed that it helps the redness and swelling. I also use this on my lips occasionally which helps. The only thing is you have to be careful not to apply this too often. It breaks down layers of skin and thins it out. Use sparingly and occasionally only. Vaseline is a great alternative to this and is better for your skin.

I never thought neosporin would become a HG for so many things for me, but it has. I am using a clear gel ointment form of it, and I swear it has made such a tremendous difference in my skin literally overnight. It is incredibly versatile and you can use it for so many things. I put it on all over my face at night and it somehow manages to deeply moisturise and at the same time, cure and prevent blemishes. It also is a wonderful lip treatment. I have gotten into the habit of only wearing longwear liquid lipsticks which dried my lips a bit and made them cracked and flaky, but a nice heavy layer of neosporin overnight softens and repairs them like no other product, high end or low end, has. It makes a good cuticle creme and cracked heel treatment too, if you don't mind a slight stickiness, and also of course to protect injuries. Of course, you cannot beat the price, especially if you get a generic version (which in my experience has worked just as well as the branded version.) I cannot swear by neosporin enough.

I always carry Neosporin in my purse and have done this for at least 20 years. I dab it on pimples, cuts, hangnails, a sore nose, blisters and any irritation that could become infected. I once tried a generic topical antibiotic which wasn't a 3 in 1 and it wa worthless. SInce then, I have been faithful to Neosporin.
1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
Now this is a great multipurpose product. I was suffering from chronic dry, burning, flakey lips and needed something that didn't need constant reapplying and that actually works to treat the problem, not just cover it temporarily. I was using the CO Bigelow Rose Salve, and though I like it generally, it just wasn't cutting the mustard for what was going on with my lips. So my mom recommended that I just get a normal tube of Neosporin and using that in place of my lip balm. So I purchased a full tube for about 3 dollars at my grocery store and kept it in my purse and I am glad I did. It really worked to heal my lips and soothe them and negated the necessity for constantly reapplying a balm every 2 minutes. Now that my lips are doing better, I haven't being using it as much, but I keep it in my cosmetics bag just in case. So check your medicine cabinets and use Neosporin if your lips are giving you troubles rather than spending time and money looking for a band-aid solution that doesn't address the real problem.
2 out of 2 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
OK, in a fit of frustration during an especially dry and flaky lip period, I reached for my trusty tube of Neosporin. Hey, it works to heal cuts and scrapes pretty effectively, so why not my languishing lippies? Lo and behold, the HG of all lip treatments!!!! I swear, this stuff is the ultimate for dry, cracked, painfully chapped lips! A warning: the taste is nasty. Really nasty, but try not and do that and this will work for you everytime. Even my little ones will go and grab the tube themselves when their lips are chapped and by the next morning they look healthy again. I carry a tube in my purse. It's not glamorous but it is totally effective.
Note: for those poor people that are suffering from chronic dryness from Accutane, give this a try. It worked for a friend of mine when she was at her wit's end.
Don't you just love products that are inexpensive little gems that do double-duty!

Discussion in 'Fly Swaps' started by troutman101, Jul 6, 2006.
I am putting mine in the mail today.
I dropped my offerings at the Post Office today. They should arrive tomorrow.
I dropped mine off about an hour ago. The Labrador Caddis are on their way.
Flies are tied and will be in priority mail tommorow. Just to let you guys know, I couldn't find a "pure dry" pattern I really like (and would fish) that wasn't a sparkle caddis, so I did some parasol caddis instead. Hopefully this doesn't violate the swap rules.
-- Cheers
-- james
So far I have 5 packages so one more and I will do the big sendout. No rules really, just trying to get some cool patterns to swap and so far so good.
Okay guys, swap is done. I am going fishing tomorrow and then doing the mailing on Saturday. Expect flies in your mailbox early next week.
Help! Troutman address needed? Please PM me with it! I'm lame and forgot to send the flies out like I said I would on monday!
James, your flies came today so guess what that means....
Yup, flies are getting photographed and then mailed out on Wednesday.
Thanks again for contributing. These are just what the troutman ordered.
Okay guys, I was a little behind in getting the packages out. All of them went in the mail and will be picked up Monday at noon.
The good news; any of the flies are October Caddis dries. Perfect for right now eh?
Go catch some fish!
Thanks for participating.
Thank you Tony for a Great Swap ! Sorry I didn't tag mine, it's the CDC Caddis. Also sorry I forgot to put money in there for Ya. I completely spaced it out, I was so busy getting ready for my daughters to come out I completely spaced it. I am sending you a check to cover the cost. All of the Flies are superb! I can't wait to try them out.
All the flies are great...... Good job everyone! :thumb: :thumb:
Many thanks folks for your hard work. Lots of diversity and ideas to chew over. The parasol pattern was especially interesting. How much trouble are they to tie, especially in smaller sizes?
I submitted two flies because I was not totally convinced of the floatability and durability of the raffia winged October caddis after I had tied up about half a dozen. I ended up doubling up the wings (some flies were retrofit after originally tied) which traps more air and should make the wings tougher. The second October caddis explored another way to put together the wings, this time with slips of turkey and to provide the head with floation, spun green/yellow deer hair.
I totally agree that the swap was a big success. I was hoping to get some innovative ideas and sure enough, there are some really good ones.
Just so you guys know, the one I sent you is probably my favorite pattern to fish. It is a simple fly and quick to tie but EXTREMELY effective. What is unfortunate is that I cannot find the same dubbing anywhere and I am down to my last ounce. Worse than crack! If anyone knows of a nice coarse synthetic dubbing that will twist and look similar, please let me know.
Stephen, the cost was nothing and I already had the envelope so don't sweat it. I received $5 from one of the tyers and I spent about $2 of my own money so it all balances out. Besides, it is a small price to pay for what I gained for this swap.
Thanks again everyone.
Parasols are absurdly easy to tie. It's basically your favorite pattern just with a piece of 4x with a parasol on it tied into the body. The only trouble with them is you need to throw them with wide loops or they wrap over themselves, and they don't throw worth a shit in the wind!
To create the parasol, just use 2 1" pieces of normal poly yarn. Do a improved clinch knot in the middle of both pieces. Cinch it *HARD* down. Tie it into the body where ever you want and just tie the fly just like normal. Once the fly is finished, pull up *HARD* on the yarn and cut it straight across. For small flies 1/8" is good, for larger 1/4"....
-- Cheers

Marquez age is the only reason he MIGHT lose.
Hes not too old to put a 9 punch combination together on them. A porous defense is not something you want to put in front of Marquez, even if you sought him out at a retirement village.

JMM would dice both of those guys up. I'd see him having more problems with Garcia and Matthysse.

I'd pick Matthysse against Marquez, and I think Garcia would give the older counter-puncher a run for his money. Garcia/Marquez would be very interesting.
I remember saying that I think if Rios/Marquez were to fight, it would be JMM by decision or Rios by stoppage. I think it's very possible that JMM stops Rios after last night, but I think Rios has more of a chance @147 where he wouldn't be weight-drained.

marquez weighed 151 lbs against pacquiao in the third fight...i think marquez was even heavier in the 4th fight..
marquez could match rios' power if marquez uses heredia's services again...

So JMM shouldnt fight at 140 because those guys have 12 pounds on him on fight night and more than that naturally but Floyd should fight those huge guys at 154 who will outweigh him by 15-20 pounds in the ring and even more than that naturally?
Its the same guys saying JMM shouldnt that say Floyd should. Then you cant use the excuse that Floyd has fought at 154 because not only has JMM fought at 140 but he's fought at WW. Not only did he fight at WW, he just stopped the so called baddest WW weve seen in years while many think Floyd struggled with Cotto. Its a joke

He is only going to fight about two more times. Those guys are bigger than Marquez and Pacquiao but with the possible exception of Matthysse I think Pacquiao or Marquez could beat all of them.I think Marquez could make 135 and be fine but it looks more likely for him to fight Bradley for his 147 pound title.

I don't think Marquez even wants to fight at 140 again...
He is old... on the verge of retiring.. we can't judge him negatively for this.. he has already turned down a lot of big 140 fights.

Against Diaz and Katsidis Marquez decided to slug it out because he felt he could take their power and also because they wouldn't let Marquez rest. Diaz was on him for full 3 minutes in every single round until he got knocked out.

Winnipeg Free Press - PRINT EDITION
BRANDON -- If the PST increase is necessary to fund important flood-protection infrastructure throughout the province, as Premier Greg Selinger claims, the proof won't be found in Brandon.
In the aftermath of the devastating 2011 Assiniboine River flood, Selinger committed $20 million for one-in-300-year flood protection for the Wheat City. Last week, when pressed by opposition leader Brian Pallister to justify the PST hike, the premier responded, "When we listened to Manitobans, they told us they want to be protected from flooding, which is why we spent a billion dollars in the Red River Valley and extended the flood protection around the city of Winnipeg to one-in-700-year protection.
"We're now offering the same protection to the people of Lake Manitoba, Lake St. Martin, Brandon and the Assiniboine Valley."
While it appeared that Selinger had just announced the PST increase would fund one-in-700-year flood protection for Brandon, reality set in a few hours later, when Brandon city council unveiled a flood-protection plan that won't even deliver one-in-300-year protection for the entire city.
Some vulnerable areas of the city will receive that level of protection, but the plan's summary states: "One notable aspect to this plan is that there is no diking planned for First Street North. The plan will allow for First Street North to be flooded at a flood with a return frequency of one-in-100 years. The decision to allow First St. North to flood was based on practical limitations and financial considerations."
The strategy to abandon First Street North and the downstream portion of the city to floodwater has shocked many Brandonites.
The street is a four-lane provincial highway that serves as a major traffic artery. It connects to large neighbourhoods, Assiniboine Community College, Veterans Way and the Trans-Canada Highway. It leads to the provincial jail, CFB Shilo, the RCMP detachment, the CP Rail yards, a large school, important recreation facilities and retail areas.
A flood of even moderate severity would almost certainly result in damages far exceeding the capital cost of providing permanent one-in-300-year flood protection for the highway and surrounding area.
Despite those facts, the Selinger government is unconcerned with the new plan. "The investment in Brandon will provide a one-in-300-year level of protection for vulnerable residential and commercial areas of the city," says spokeswoman Rachel Morgan. "The city determined protecting the first street transportation corridor and the recreation fields to the one-in-300-year level of protection was not a priority."
The suggestion the city of Brandon willingly adopted a plan that exposes a provincial highway and a large portion of the city to ongoing flooding -- or even has the power to unilaterally make such a decision -- elicited bemused laughter from city officials.
They say the province has been fully involved in the plan's formation, providing approvals throughout the process. They indicate the province has committed no funding beyond the $20 million allocated in 2011 and insist the new plan is the best that can be delivered for the current funding. More money would mean more protection.
If the PST increase was intended to provide enhanced flood protection for Brandon, how did the city end up with a lower level of flood protection than was promised before the PST increase?
"This government will overpromise and under deliver on flood protection," says Pallister. "Past performance is the best indicator of future performance and when it comes to flood protection, this government has been an underperformer for 14 years."
Liberal Leader Jon Gerrard wants the premier to keep his promise. He says that "Greg Selinger should ensure Brandon has one-in-700 flood protection, just as he said on July 2. Nothing less should be acceptable."
The Selinger government has fumbled a golden opportunity to change the PST narrative, and silence its critics, by proving the PST increase will pay for infrastructure that will protect Manitoba communities from future flooding.
By failing to deliver the enhanced flood protection for Brandon that it claims the PST increase will fund, or even the level of protection that was promised in 2011, it has strengthened his critics' strongest argument against the PST hike -- that it has nothing to do with flood protection.

Apologies for not posting on here last night.
I absolutely rode the Bolts into the ground on both ML and Puck last night and they came thru again. They are on fire, been feeling pretty safe playing them thus far. I failed to spread the word last night so my bad.
As for today's picks, liking the Sens & Hawks a lot, would lean more on OTT as my fave
Good luck to all!

Liking Dallas tonight, they are getting some players back tonight. Columbus has looked shaky as of late.
I feel comfortable betting against Avs and Nucks right now.
I added Carolina after I learned that Khudobin was getting the start over Rask. I hear Ward is coming back tonight from rest, but as of late, Hurricanes play Boston well.
Good luck to all!

This prop is a bit of a challenge to find available with most shops - but if you do have access: Will the first goal of the game be scored Over or Under 10 min ? Tampa Bay vs Carolina *** UNDER 10 -130 *** The majority of the NHL players (those that didn't play in Europe - during lock out) had just under 7 days to get into hockey shape = a ton of pucks finishing between the pipes early in games.

SIMPSONVILLE, S.C. (AP) — A South Carolina county's deputies say a McDonald's employee spit in two customers' cups of iced tea after the drinks were returned because they weren't sweet enough.
Authorities say 19-year-old Marvin Washington Jr. was arrested Wednesday and charged with malicious tampering with food.
Greenville County investigators say surveillance video caught Washington leaning over the cups before he filled them Saturday at the Simpsonville restaurant. Authorities say the customers discovered phlegm when they removed the lids of the drinks to add more sugar because the iced tea still was not sweet enough.
The owner of the McDonald's says he follows stringent food safety procedures and asked people not to reach conclusions until all the facts come out.
It wasn't immediately clear Wednesday if Washington had a lawyer.

Plymouth GTX 440 LOUD SOUND RoadRunner V8
Plymouth GTX 440 / RoadRunner Sound - Hello and welcome to the Car
Acceleration TV Channel 2014. In today's video, we want to show you a great
american classic car, the Plymouth GTX 440 / RoadRunner. The V8 engine
sound is really incredible. Watch this Plymouth video for cold start sound,
drive scenes and listen the horn. End of 1970, the Belvedere was replaced
by the Plymouth Satellite. Consequently, based on the GTX now the new
model. However, this lasted only one year. Completely new was the coupé
body, technically, everything remained the same. Available were still the
7.2-liter with two power ratings and the seven-liter Hemi V8. Due to sharp
decline in sales of the GTX was taken as a stand-alone model in the fall of
1971 from the program, in the model years 1972 to 1974 there were but for
the continuing Plymouth Road Runner GTX a package. My opinion is from this
period is the most interesting of the Plymouth Cuda Barracuda model.
