Bottle Love
I love bottles! I especially love aqua blue bottles and canning jars. The other day I found this jar at the 70 Mile Yard Sale and I paid fifty cents for it. It has a handle and a rooster motif on the front.
I thought it would be prettier with some pearls on it and some baby's breath tucked inside.
Then I brought out my blue jar with the burgundy top and frenchy motif on it.
As well as a little hobnail type jar with a cork stopper. I've had this bottle for years.
I grouped them altogether on top of my little teacup cabinet in the dining room and decided to make a little vignette out of it all. I tucked in some fairy-dusted baby pumpkins and vines.
I have some chickens and roosters that would look great with these bottles too. Once the pumpkin season is over, perhaps the feathered friends will take their place.
I am joining the following parties:
Sherry - Home Sweet Home Party
Marty - Table Top Tuesday Party
Thanks for visiting and I wish you all a lovely week.
Sharing from my heart~ Sandi

Hello friend,
Time passes so quickly when school begins that I sometimes don't get to drop in for a visit! The jars made me think of my grandma's cellar where her treasures in similar jars were stored, but it was sort of creepy to me so I didn't spend time down there. It was outside the house and down some steps. I can't even remember if there were walls, or just the earth, maybe just a "dugout".
I do like the glittery WHITE pumpkins.♥♫

Oh Sandi, SOOOO pretty! LOVE the color of those bottles - that soft aqua blue is so gorgeous.

As he said when we moved in here 3 years ago, the sweetest words in the world are "Pay the man." And it also explains why it took us 30 years to be able to live in an old barn like this!

About 2,200 Exmark riding mowers that were made in Nebraska are being recalled because a part could fail and cause a crash. Exmark says it has received 18 reports of problems with its Quest 42-inch ZRT riding mowers, but no injuries have been reported.
Exmark says bearings that support the mower deck could fail and interfere with the operator's controls.
The recall covers mowers made in 2009 and 2010 with serial numbers between 790,000 and 860,652. The red and grey mowers have the model number: QST20BE422.
The mowers were sold nationwide for between $4,200 and $4,400. Consumers should contact an Exmark dealer to schedule a free repair.

Apr 9, 2013 5:06 PM by Daniel Phillips
The threat of severe weather will return to Acadiana Wednesday night as a robust cold front pushes its way across the region.
Strong southerly winds over the passed few days have filled the atmosphere with plenty of moisture, to fuel the storms moving through on Wednesday. Scattered showers will be possible out ahead of the front during the day, but conditions will deteriorate Wednesday night.
During the day Wednesday winds will be extremely blustery and gusty, particularly in the offshore areas. As a result a Small Craft Advisory is in effect through Wednesday.
The best chance to see the stronger storms will be between a window of 8:00 pm Wednesday until the ealry hours of Thursday morning.
The main threat from these storms are going to be damaging winds and the chance for hail as well. The threat for isolated tornadoes will be present, but it does look like better chances for tornadoes will be just north of Louisiana.

Jason Kidd Arrested For DUIby Free Britney at . Comments
NBA All-Star Jason Kidd was arrested this morning for DUI this morning in New York State, reportedly for crashing into a telephone pole in the Hamptons.
Kidd was the lone passenger in the accident, which officials say happened around 2:00 a.m. Police described the basketball star as "being intoxicated."
The crash occurred near Kidd's summer home on Long Island.
The future Hall of Fame member was taken to a local hospital to treat minor injuries but luckily was generally unharmed after the single-car crash.
After being released from the hospital, he was transported directly to a local police station for processing and booked for driving under the influence.
Cops say that Kidd was arraigned on a misdemeanor DUI charge in Southampton Town Justice Court and then released on his own recognizance.
Jason Kidd, 39, won an NBA title with the Dallas Mavericks in 2011; he signed a three-year, $9.5 million deal with the New York Knicks on July 5.
NY Knick, Jason Kidd was arrested for drunk driving the summer of 2012 after his vehicle was in a serious collision. He was charged with DWI and later appeared for court. Good thing no one was injured in the accident. Most states have implied consent laws which means that you must comply with a test or face fines and/or license suspension – sometimes right on the spot – for refusing to take the test. Some states have abandoned the urine test due to reliability issues. The driver usually gets his choice of the available tests.
Actually the term lone passenger is fairly appropriate. Lone means one person, and passenger is commonly used to mean any person traveling in a vehicle. All hypocrisy aside, it is overly critical to interigate every word someone uses in the fashion you've done here. Any etymologist will tell you that language is ever evolving, and most words can/have been adapted many times in the way it occured above. That's how new usage evolves. I think the expression for thisthe situation goes "If you have nothing nice to say, then shut your yap and cut the crap."
Tell 'em @AcidulousMe. Especially articles written by Free Britney.
He was a "lone passenger"? That implies that no one was driving! I think "occupant" is the word you should've used. I'm amazed by some of the articles online. Doesn't anyone use an editor anymore?!

Power is finally back on this morning after a massive outage in the Pantops area last night. The outage happened just before 11 p.m. last night. According to Dominion Virginia Power, there was a malfunction in one of the substations that knocked power out to about 1,500 customers. One eyewitness, in the 1900 block of Tremont Drive says he saw an explosion and fire in his backyard.
"I first told my wife to call 911 to get the fire department. Secondly, I went out and got my hose, and went out all the way to try and put [the fire] out. Fortunately, I was successful," said resident John O'Connell.
O'Connell believes a fall tree limb ripped power lines down causing the outage. No one was injured in the incident. Power was restored by the early morning hours.

Where did you guys get your hole saw for your weldless fittings?
I used a 7/8" bi-metallic hole saw. I got it from a Tru-Value hardware store.
i heard 7/8 is too big.. you guys have any leaks?
Not yet.
I used a step drill bit. Costs more but I can use it again for other projects that I have to do. You can find them at HD or Lowes and also at Harbor Freight.
yeah looked at those yesterday.. freakin 45 dollars for a bit..
I got a 7/8 step drill at HD for $34. It's made by Irwin. it went through my big SS brewkettle like butter. Just use a LOT of pressure on the drill, and let it turn VERY slowly, and keep it oiled (3-in-1 works great) and it just marches right through.

Everything we have heard so far about the upcoming Black Rock Shooter OVA looks absolutely droolworthy to me, from characters to art to storyline. Of course, I admit I want to know more about Black Rock Shooter in general. What is her origin? Does she have any relationship to Vocaloid goddess Hatsune Miku, even a tenuous one? Can I get my arm guns retrofitted like hers so I can be a bigger badass?
Whoops, got distracted there. Sorry. Back to the OVA ... Danny Choo has shared not only new screenshots from it, but also a new character named Yuu, who is bound to be someone's waifu by the end of the day. She is a friend of the main character, Mato, and will be voiced by Kana Asumi (Toradora, Angel Beats). We know that these real life girls have alternate personas in a dark world, which is where we meet characters like Black Rock Shooter, Dead Master and more.
The OVA will be screened at the upcoming Wonder Festival on July 25th to coincide with the official release. Are you interested in checking it out?
-Yui Asakawa is a steel bodied robot who was hired by Anime Vice to present the news clinically with no regard for the hopes and dreams of others. Permanently stationed in Tokyo, she has oversized guns built into her forearms, can't go a week without hitting a takoyaki vendor, and occasionally smiles at the sight of very small kittens.

NEW YORK — Panthers coach Peter Horachek and Sabres coach Ted Nolan were in similar boats – until Friday.
Both replaced fired coaches during the season and were given the ever-insecure, interim coach tag by general managers who weren't that familiar with them. Since Nolan replaced Ron Rolston, the 12-26-5 Sabres have gone 8-11-4. Since Horachek took over for Kevin Dineen (3-9-4), the 17-21-6 Panthers have gone 14-12-2.

Snowden: 'I am still working for the NSA ... to improve it'
Edward Snowden believes he is "still working for the NSA right now" and that his actions in recent months don't constitute treason but an effort "to improve the NSA", according to an interview in The Washington Post. Snowden's thinking is that he did not set out to "bring down the NSA" but that his theft of and distribution of …
Because we can
We spy because we need to? Or - like the surveillence states of yesteryear's most terrible regimes - because we can?
Snowden has accomplished more than one mission. For society, he's launched a serious debate. And for the powers of the state, he's sown/nurtured seeds of doubt about their online security, that may cause those with most to hide to deny themselves the power of modern communications.
And one more ... he's taken the media spotlight firmly away from a certain aussie now leading a non-life in limbo. A blessed relief there!
Re: Because we can
Because their corporate overlords tell them too.
Spying to defeat fascism is one thing, but spying to advance commercial interests is quite another, exactly the opposite in fact, and this farcical War on Terriers® is little more than gang warfare between those commercial interests and OPEC.
Granted, I'm sure Christian fundamentalism plays a role too, along with an overinflated sense of "exceptionalism".
@Nick Re: Because we can
Every Nation spies on every other nation.
Merkel? She should win the German equivalent of an Oscar for her feigned outrage at the US.
And people say that the Germans don't have a sense of humor.
C'mon seriously?
As to your remarks on Snowden... one of my Russian friends thinks he's FSB.
Personally I think he's a delusional loser who lucked out by getting his clearance in the first place.
The UK should appreciate what Edward Snowden has done for them ...
by revealing what a bunch of low life the UK employs.
Everyone was complacently happy in their ignorance until that fateful day in HongKong when several people met around that Rubic's cube.
Re: The UK should appreciate what Edward Snowden has done for them ...
I often wonder, and especially today, what Alan Turing would have thought of all this. His legacy his been flushed down the toilet of history by those that followed him.

He seemed happy enough during WW2 and after as focus shifted to the soviets - eras when absolutely all domestic communication (phones, mail etc) was subject to interception without any oversight..
.......also post-war we recycled the Nazi tech for our European and colonial allies thus ensuring we could monitor their secure communications.

Here is a man who has caused millions, if not billions worth of damage by his actions. Made countries mistrust America on whole new levels and did it for no other reason than trying to make the world a little better place to live in. Will they learn ? Ever?
Me personally I can't wait to see what other dirty little secrets will be revealed in the hope 'Murricah will stop playing World Police and let the right parties intermediate in international conflicts and affairs.
What I don't understand (and perhaps there are reasons for it), is why the US media isn't in an uproar or why Americans aren't up in arms over this.
Maybe they just don't want to bite the hand that feeds it...
Nixon's actions seems like a paper cut compared to this fiasco.
As someone else said...
... in another articles thread, the reason they aren't up in arms about it all is because the US nutures 'patriotism' like it's a cult, if you even question it then surely you must be an enemy of the state.
Here is a man who has caused millions, if not billions worth of damage by his actions. Made countries mistrust America on whole new levels and did it for no other reason than trying to make the world a little better place to live in. Will they learn ? Ever?
If I witness a crime, is my testimony what sends the criminal to jail, or the criminals misconduct?
So much for "If you've done nothing wrong, you have nothing to hide"
|Quote|Me personally I can't wait to see what other dirty little secrets will be revealed in the hope 'Murricah will stop playing World Police and let the right parties intermediate in international conflicts and affairs.
You mean like the EU/UN did in Bosnia for 3 years until the US led bombing of the country in the aftermath of Srebrenica
Or perhaps like Rwanda where everyone did nothing until the bodies starting floating down the rivers into Lake Victoria?
But after WW2, we collectively said "never again" where what should have been said is "never again unless a UN veto holding power is supporting the country in question"
How can you stop playing World Police when
no one else is either stupid enough or wealthy enough to do so?
Let's face it, few if any European or Middle East countries even want to be involved for ANY reason. The UN is the most constipated, worthless, impotent organization that ever sucked the public teat.
I can't blame anyone for NOT participating. However, when you don't participate or provide support; IMHO you lose your right to criticize forever. Now I'm off to bake some bread you arent getting.
BTW, I don't fully support or condone what the US has done even though I live here. I DO have to live with the results however.
As far as the spying is concerned, you can't single out the USA when ALL of your various countries alphabet agencies are all involved (you just don't have your own Snowden (Yet).
The damage was done by others when they spied illegally and unconstitutionally, all Snowden did was let people know for sure instead of guessing.
Nixon was a little different because we do not expect that our President is a damned burglar, directly running a group of criminals. There could have been no plausible excuse for his actions.
Unfortunately, Oblama is just as big a crook as Nixon but he has an excuse that all governments can hide their dirty tricks behind, "National Security"!
The Liberal media is as guilty as Oblama is, one for rigging all media coverage and next for failing to report what he has done with same fervor they would use against Bush or some other GOP politician.
Re: As someone else said...
Unfortunately, you are right in the nurturing US patriotism as a cult. But you are wrong to think that there are US "patriots," citizens, and those with access to information the public does not know who thinks that Snowden is a criminal and find it fitting that he is in mother Russia running away from his actions.
Re: As someone else said...
"and those with access to information the public does not know " -are shitting their pants, because thanks to Mr Snowden, they{the public) soon will have access to that information.
yes, all whistleblowers are criminals, according to those criminals they blow the whistle on. As for running away from his actions - the man is not a complete fool - I certainly wouldn't be running back to the waiting arms of the slimeballs behind this mess.
Re: As someone else said...
I'm so embarrassed for my countrymen. It isn't patriotism muting the response, outside of the initial reactions no one seems to care anymore. It is a reality far more damning than the spying itself.
So much for "If you've done nothing wrong, you have nothing to hide"
It's obvious just who is the real crims here, then. The NSA, GCHQ, ASIO, GCSB, etc, are all so very forthcoming with the details, aren't they? If they were doing nothing criminal, they would be forthcoming with the details ... they're so good at pretending they're doing nothing I suspect them of the very worst not merely LOVEINT, but PERVERTINT ...
Re: Loopy Wankinmasta Re: So much for "If you've done nothing wrong.....
"It's obvious just who is the real crims here, then....." Yes, it is - the NSA and GCHQ are legally covered, whereas Snowope took restricted material (cybercrime) and distributed it to "journalists" that did not have clearance to have it (breach of the Espionage Act in the US and the Official Secrets Act in the UK). Yes, by his own admission, it is very clear that Snowdope is a criminal. Your wanting to baaaah-lieve otherwise is just LACKOFINT.
End of the Age of Innocence
What Nixon's Plumbers did was peanuts compared to what Snowden has revealed, but this was a much more innocent country then. This was an era when the press and Secret Service colluded to keep the scandalous affairs of government out of the press in the USA. Watergate, the Pentagon Papers, and Abscam changed all that. What Snowden did was/is heroic. I too am looking forward to his fact-checking NSA propaganda.
"...when you have access to the tools the NSA does, probable cause falls out of trees."
The problem is, if you have the NSA's toolbox and all the feeling of omniscience that goes with it, you probably develop a bit of a deity complex, leading you to the view that probable cause is for mere mortals.
many more in his possession?
So you think he is lying when he says he has nothing?
I loved the "it is generally held" bit; how about citing your sources? Who are these people generally holding this, and how do *they* say they know?
My source? The NYT: http://www.nytimes.com/2013/10/18/world/snowden-says-he-took-no-secret-files-to-russia.html
Re: many more in his possession?
There is a difference between 'he has no files in his possession' and 'he has no access to the files'.
This is someone who was as professionally paranoid as any tinfoil hat wearer, so, knowing he would be flying through Russia, what might he have done with the files?
I'd guess the files are very well encrypted and kept on a server somewhere, probably stenographically hidden as well as encrypted.
Re: many more in his possession?
"....so, knowing he would be flying through Russia, what might he have done with the files?...." He has already stated he gave everything to Poitras and Greenwald. That is why he can't now get anyone to give him asylum outside Russia, because he has no secrets to offer and only lots of diplomatic heat from the US. Snowdope was duped by Greenwald just as Manning was by A$$ange.
".....Whether Snowden's declaration that his mission is accomplished means he will continue to release documents isn't disclosed....." Hmmm, so leaving glorious, tropical Hawaii, poledancer girlfriend, and an allegedly $150K job, for winter in Moscow with a crappy helldesk job paying peanuts and only KGB goons for company? Yeah, what an accomplishment! ROFLMAO! Snowdope's unfounded narcissism is so beyond Walter Mitty it's simply tragic.
Re: many more in his possession?
Ditz. This is getting fucking annoying. Snowden's like Manning, in that he handed over the files, and now reporters are combing through them to write articles. At least, that's the last I'd heard.
If this weren't already the Register, I'd expect the Register to be skewering you and every other half-brained reporter. Truly, it's sad.
I really think he does have nothing
Part of his plan surely was to pass it off, as he must have known his tech would get torn apart wherever he went. I would say that there are encrypted version(s) out there in the "cloud", which is sort of ironic.
All's Fair in LOVE and CyberIntelAIgent Security WareFare and Virtual Protection Warfare
It would surely be akin to an act of treasonous neglect of duty for UKGBNI Spookery not to be grooming and offering Snowden whatever he wants for as long as he wants in order to take possession of a copy of the intelligence jewels he allegedly has spirited away.
Is Blighty AI Leading Great Game Player or much more at home starring as a Wannabe Cuckold, Blissfully Content with the Sloppy Seconds being Servered to Please Leading Great Game Players in the Live Operational Virtual Environment?
All that is required to virtually change that very particular and peculiarly tasty reality are new and novel and noble GCHQ Intelligence Community Enterprises with Global Operating Devices delivering Head Quarters Global Command with NEUKlearer IT and HyperRadioProActive Media Control.

Eddy Is A Crackpot
OH my goodness!
the NSA "are the only ones who don't realize" he's still working for the agency.
Could it possibly be true that we've all been had by these Snowden leaks? Could this be a ploy to divert our attention from other things?
The USA is famous for letting you see what one hand is doing, whilst the other hand does pretty much the opposite.
No. I don't believe any of the above.
Re: Eddy Is A Crackpot
I don't think that... I just think that Snowden is now trying to rationalize this after the fact. He certainly did commit the crime that he's accused of. (yep, it's true by definition)
Indirectly, he's doing his country a favour. Bad for overreaching security agencies (they'll be kept on somewhat shorter leashes now) but good for humanity, including Americans in the long run.
Re: Eddy Is A Crackpot
"I don't think that... I just think that Snowden is now trying to rationalize this after the fact. He certainly did commit the crime that he's accused of. (yep, it's true by definition)"
No it ain't.
Treason is a plot to overthrow the government, what Snowden did was expose the US Government's lies and illegal acts against the constitution of which said lies and acts ARE TREASON.
Re: Eddy Is A Crackpot
I thought that as a possibility, too.
That all this was planned from the beginning...
I'm not a conspiracy freak, but the US seem to be...
"Catch-22 says they have a right to do anything we can't stop them from doing."
"What the hell are you talking about?" Yossarian shouted at her in bewildered, furious protest. "How did you know it was Catch-22? Who the hell told you it was Catch-22?"
"The soldiers with the hard white hats and clubs. The girls were crying. 'Did we do anything wrong?' they said. The men said no and pushed them away out the door with the ends of their clubs. 'Then why are you chasing us out?' the girls said. 'Catch 22,' the men said. All they kept saying was 'Catch-22, Catch-22. What does it mean, Catch 22? What is Catch-22?"
"Didn't they show it to you?" Yossarian demanded, stamping about in anger and distress. "Didn't you even make them read it?"
"They don't have to show us Catch-22," the old woman answered. "The law says they don't have to."
"What law says they don't have to?"
The idea that this had nothing to do with the Russians is laughable.
It does look like the condition that he discontinue his attacks on the US have been quietly dropped by Russia.
Which is fair enough, since obviously the only reason for accepting his Asylum request from Russia's POV was to allow Mr Snowdon to continue to give the USA a good kicking in the media.
Funny old world
What are all these governments complaining about? They keep telling us that it is necessary to keep tabs on our every move and that 'if you have done nothing wrong, you have no need to worry'. None of these governments should worry then if they have done no wrong, but they are worrying quite a lot.
Perhaps the NSA could recover some moral high ground...
> when you have access to the tools the NSA does, probable cause falls out of trees
Or rather "when you have access to the tools the NSA does..." pedophiles can be arrested, people smugglers and slave traders can be intercepted, and child-porn sites starved of credit card payments.
Maybe some action on those fronts may earn back some goodwill - especially since the cat's out of the bag and there is no need to protect sources of evidence anymore?
Or maybe the NSA has already thought about this and decided that once the pedos, slave traders and pornographers have been stopped there would be no choice but to go on and deal with tax evaders and ever smaller-scale criminals until eventually there would only be litterers left and therefore no further reason for the NSA's existence? Better therefore just to stay in a nice, cushy job protecting against 'terrorists' lest there be any danger of doing good.
Look! It's an Obvious Distraction!
Snowden's thinking is that he did not set out to "bring down the NSA" but that his theft of and distribution of documents will help to refocus the agency on its true purpose. He therefore told the Post that the NSA "are the only ones who don't realize" he's still working for the agency.
Seems a bit late to work on his insanity defense, but whatever gets the job done, I suppose.
Stop it. Just stop it.
Don't you realize this is the NSA's busiest night of the year ?
Re: Stop it. Just stop it.
But that is because they've yet to crack Santa's communications!
NSA spying on SANTA ..
@Gannon (J.) Dick: "Don't you realize this is the NSA's busiest night of the year ?
Fixed headline ..
Am I sympathetic with the excuse that the NSA is spying on the world because they are spying on us? Yes, I expect that, and all the crocodile tears being shed by world leaders make me laugh. Am I happy with the idea of all the domestic spying by the NSA? Not at all. The answer is simple. The ability to create a set of programs that exploit a technology that few understand creates an extraordinary opportunity for abuse which the NSA shields with the policy of blocking all inquiry under the guise of exposing national secrets. Once the NSA crosses on to our borders they should, by law, be subject to domestic jurisprudence.
Re: Jerry H. Appel
"....Once the NSA crosses on to our borders they should, by law, be subject to domestic jurisprudence." So, whilst readying yourself for your rant, you missed that whole bit about how the NSA's domestic activities WERE under the oversight of the FISC...?
In the beginning, I thought he did a great thing as a service to all of our countries.
Nowadays, he only seems to be bragging and going on like he's the saviour of humanity. His lack of dignity and grace is starting to annoy the hell out of me.
To Snowden, you are not a hero. Standing on your soap box and declaring that you know everything about everything in our generation and for future generations is wearing your credibility very thin.
You are a former security employee who spilled the beans on spying, and it's becoming more and more obvious that you did it to make yourself out to become the second coming of Christ.
It's time for you to go away now...please...I beg you.
He is working for the NSA
By showing them how arrogant and complacent they are.
He worked by ASKING people there for passwords which that just gave to him!

Boao Forum for Asia 2009: Thought leadership
In line with the focus of this year's Boao Forum for Asia Conference, " Asia: Managing beyond crisis", Deloitte, as the Conference's Intellectual Supporting Partner, shares its research and thought leadership reports on how businesses can enhance their ability to manage successfully through these volatile times and continue to build for the long term:
The economic outlook and impact for domestic, outbound and inbound businesses
|China and the new global financial order
Just when the global financial system faces its most severe crisis, China's economy is reaching a level of maturity and strength that will give it a central role in the new financial order. This report, published by Deloitte China Research and Insight Centre, provides Deloitte China's viewpoint on China's emerging role and the implications for global financial markets and economy, and for China inbound and outbound investors. The centre was established to provide our clients in China and around the world with information on developments in China that may be relevant to their businesses.
|Think global, start local: A geographic guide to outbound investment opportunities
This is a geographic outbound investment guide for Chinese investors. It depicts the life cycle of a typical Chinese enterprise along with the opportunities and challenges it will face in the investment process. It explains how Deloitte aligns its services to helping the investor - from the early planning stage to the possible exiting stage. This is a publication of the Global Chinese Services Group, a unique platform within Deloitte that unifies professionals with China perspectives and covers nearly 100 locations around the world. The group supports clients from both an inbound and outbound service perspective.
Checklists to help companies manage in volatile times
For many companies, the global economic turmoil translates into both unimagined risks - and potential opportunities. On the one hand, organisations must cope with the credit crunch and volatile markets. On the other hand, now is the time for them to take charge and strengthen their competitive stance and prepare for the long haul.
|It's time to make the call: Taking control in turbulent times
Many companies often find it hard to know what to do first in these uncertain times. Good companies can turn into troubled ones overnight. Recognising when it's time for an intervention - and acting on that insight - can be the critical factor in determining a company's success or failure in volatile times. Deloitte has identified seven questions management needs to be able to answer now.
|Managing in volatile times
What steps can companies take in these volatile times? This guide introduces 30 Deloitte capabilities across five key areas where we are helping companies to devise strategies to manage their business.
Cost management
|In fighting shape? 2008 survey of cost improvement trends from Fortune 500
Most companies have adopted cost management as an ongoing discipline, yet their current approaches may not be enough to address the potential challenges ahead. This is a survey report of 70 Fortune 500 companies, and examines the ways companies can choose an effective cost improvement approach.
Cash management
Effective cash management is critical. While profits may be the measure of success, it is cash that determines business survival.
|Tax responses to the global economic crisis
This report by Deloitte's global tax practice provides a high-level summary of responses, through tax and fiscal policies, of more than 50 countries worldwide to tackle the crisis. The focus is on implemented corporate, individual income, and indirect tax measures, other types of fiscal measures and corporate governance, and proposed and deferred measures.

Controlling your cash position: Back to the basics - A questionnaire to help you assess your current cash management position
|Dealing with economic downturn: Cash tax strategies for doing business in the Chinese Mainland and Hong Kong
This guide summarises a range of ideas to help companies develop cash tax strategies, covering enterprise income tax, indirect tax, employment and individual income tax, international tax, and US tax.
Risk management
|Putting risk in the comfort zone: Nine principles for building the Risk Intelligent Enterprise TM
The overriding message from the credit and financial crisis is that no one is immune. Many boards and executives are feeling uneasy as their risk environments change almost daily. Companies now need to give risk management their highest attention and emphasise even more in the value of improving the ways risk is anticipated and actions are taken to increase resilience to risk. Deloitte has defined a set of nine principles to help enterprises become more risk intelligent. This publication introduces the principles along with insights and practical steps for incorporating the concepts in organisations.
|Risk Intelligence Diagnostic Tool
This tool provides a high-level assessment of an organisation's present risk management capability, defined in terms of the framework provided by the nine fundamental principles for building a Risk Intelligent EnterpriseTM. It helps to evaluate where organisations stand on risk management and how to plan their journeys towards Risk Intelligence.
|Risk Intelligent IT Internal Auditor - IT IA Takes Flight
Harnessing information technology to identify turning points in the business operations has become the key to business success. Risk intelligent IT internal auditors understand business risk and identify strategic opportunities, using both information and technology. Organisations that encourage IT internal audit to take on a leadership role in implementing strategic initiatives and business issues are most knowledgeable about their strength and will be successful in different economic environments.
|Crises and threats
The corporate environment is becoming increasingly litigious, with both local and multi-national disputes increasingly commonplace. Even a seemingly insignificant or minor event has the potential to develop into a major blow to a business. That is why it's important to thoroughly assess potential threats and develop a plan to either avoid crises or effectively manage them if they prove inevitable. The major critical threats facing companies today fall into seven broad areas. For each of these, Deloitte's guide, "Crises and threats", outlines the major areas of exposure and vital first steps, and establishes essential competencies for any business.

|Deloitte 2008 Annual Review - Looking back
Looking back at the year's accomplishments is as important as looking in your rearview mirror. An essential exercise, of course, but it's critical to focus on the road ahead. For Deloitte member firms around the world, there are many accomplishments from fiscal 2008 to celebrate, including the sixth consecutive year of double-digit growth. But, even as we pause to appreciate the achievements, we're looking beyond the horizon to see what's next.

Tamara Palmer: How the 'Billie Jean' Video Changed MTVtags: pop culture, The Root, Billie Jean, Michael Jackson, MTV, pop music
Tamara Palmer is a San Francisco-based freelance writer and the author of Country Fried Soul: Adventures in Dirty South Hip-Hop. Follow her on Twitter.
(The Root) -- "Billie Jean," who was not Michael Jackson's lover, is turning 30 -- or at least her video is, and it's an important anniversary in the evolution of both black music's visual expression and America's iconic music network. On March 10, 1983, MTV played "Billie Jean" for the first time and forever changed the course of its music programming in the process.
"MTV's playlist was 99 percent white until Michael Jackson forced his way on the air by making the best music videos anyone had ever seen," Rob Tannenbaum, co-author of I Want My MTV: The Uncensored Story of the Music Video Revolution, told The Root. "Compared to Michael, MTV staples like REO Speedwagon and Journey suddenly looked even more boring. And when Michael's videos created higher ratings for MTV, network executives claimed they'd 'learned a lesson' and tentatively embraced the softer side of black pop music, especially Lionel Richie."
Tannenbaum's book, an oral history featuring artists, label executives and MTV executives, recounts the frequently cited story that CBS Records president Walter Yetnikoff threatened to pull his artists from MTV if "Billie Jean" wasn't put in rotation....

Show me the money!
Via FierceWireless
They keep putting out these forecasts, but sooner or later money has to actual change hands!
NEW YORK– (BUSINESS WIRE) — Mobile marketing, which was born in countries such as Japan and South Korea, has taken off in Western Europe and is beginning to grow in North America. As consumers move to flat-rate data plans and adopt mobile messaging, and as new platforms for advertising-supported mobile search, video and gaming content services arrive, mobile marketing is expected to grow to over $24 billion worldwide in 2013, jumping from just $1.8 billion in 2007.
"The clear difference in this market over the past twelve months has been the embrace of mobile marketing as an integral part of cross-media brand campaigns," says ABI Research director Michael Wolf. "Mobile is no longer off-limits in the minds of advertisers, but is instead seen as a very personal way to reach consumers who can be incentivized through information services and compelling content, as well as through more directly relevant and targeted messaging."
The market, however, is still very much a "wild west" environment and will take time to develop. Hundreds of mobile marketing platform providers have sprung up, and larger players such as Google, Yahoo, and Nokia have made significant investments in this fast-changing market. Emerging players in the ad network and software space such as Admob, Enpocket/Nokia and Millennial Media are becoming important new players in a market that is similar to the Internet advertising gold rush of the late 1990s.
There's that "Wild West" phrase again.
ABI Research has released a new study that presents the different areas of mobile marketing. They cover:
- Mobile Messaging Marketing
- Mobile Web
- Mobile Search
- Mobile Game Advertising
- Mobile Video Advertising
While the survey found that consumers are initially leery of mobile marketing, they seem more open to it if there is something in it for them.

According to Reuters, the government is planning a new crack down on rogue movers, a problem which has plagued the moving industry for years. Rogue movers are companies that operate outside of ethical standards by piling on charges, missing deadlines, breaking things and holding goods hostage.
The Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA), which has but a handful of investigators nationwide who focus on policing the moving industry, will in 2014 raise the bar for those who want to get into the moving industry and will give the Department of Transportation the authority to order the release of a consumer's goods being held and to assess fines.
Legitimate movers, such as Arpin Van Lines, have been lobbying to get the federal government to increase its involvement and help rid what has already been a stain on the industry's reputation.
Here are some tips on how to avoid rogue movers:

a new way to playdamienjameswebb | June 7, 2014 | See all damienjameswebb's reviews »
i originally had this for Xbox when if was first released and never really played it that much. i got back into it on the pc and finally understood it.
it has beautiful graphics and the scaling feels just right, making you feel as if you really are a good playing in the sandbox of life. you are pretty much taking care of a bunch of little animals, pointing them in the right direction. you make sure they can get food and water, and try and prevent them from being burned in hot lava... although that is pretty fun sometimes. It has the allure as sim city did when you can send a tornado onto your perfectly designed and implemented town... mwahahahaha......
any way... the gameplay can get a little dull if you aren't really into the whole creationist thing, and you should stay away if your not into the sim city kind of games. but for what it's worth, this is a worthy game of anyone looking for a new way to play.
Beautiful and Innovativebwrussell | Jan. 13, 2014 | See all bwrussell's reviews »
I don't play a lot of "God games" but for me From Dust was fresh and different. Tasked with guiding a primitive tribe on a quest for answers about their past you are given control of the environment, picking up dirt, water, and lava, to clear paths or build them, while fighting off nature itself.
Visually From Dust is appealing with beautiful tropical islands to arid deserts and lava crusted mountains. The way your powers mold the environment also looks very good. The campaign is just about the right length with a lot of extra content in challenges or open worlds if you're craving more in the end.
For the most part everything works as expected. Occasionally you will drown or burn some of your people but almost always it's because of your own mistake. That being said, occasionally the AI has some pathing issues that lead them into unnecessary danger and get them killed. More common though is having trouble telling where the AI will allow you to go, mostly involving how steep a slope they will walk up. This can cause problems when you think you have a clear path but the AI refuses to move and reverts to complaining about how much they are now on fire. It was never bad enough for me to make me stop playing though.
From Dust is a nice change of scenery and play style that is definitely worth your time.

November 28, 2014
DEL REY, Calif. (AP) - Small farms throughout the U.S. are looking for creative ways to set themselves apart from the massive agribusinesses that dominate the nation's produce aisles.
As family operations find that survival requires more than just selling crops, they're cashing in where the corporate giants can't by giving a the public a chance to share the experience and flavor of small farm life.
Across the nation, small farms are selling products such as jam, olive oil and lemonade. And they're writing books, hosting dinners and renting rooms.
Statistics show such practices are growing. According to the most recent data, small farms generated $10 billion in 2007 from activities other than crop or livestock wholesale - an increase of nearly 80 percent from 2002.

Warning: Illegal string offset 'box_blank' in /home/web4fin/public_html/wp-content/plugins/seo-smart-links-business/seo-smart-links-business.php on line 634
We now live in a fast-paced digital age wherein most of the world's population have their own social media accounts, emails, subscribed websites and online networks.
For a business that wants to market online, yesterday was the time to begin as everyone recognises that the place to find anything, even information on you, is online. Recognising the need, there are a multitude of tools and practices that are essential to building your presence online. Here are the ones that have stood the test of time and don't necessarily require you to be an online guru.
First off is SEO. Search Engine Optimisation has evolved since the early days when people worked out you just needed to put the keyword you wanted to rank for a hundred times on a page. In fact, the search engine algorithms have become so advanced at determining quality content that in some niches the lay-person can compete against big-budget companies. Of course, if you are doing SEO yourself you should not expect to rank for highly competitive terms like "home loan" as companies employ SEO professionals huge fees for these sorts of terms.
Second is Blogging. How do you keep a website on the first page? It needs constant updating and static pages won't cut the deal. Ensure great customer engagement by following an editorial calendar for the content you release. It doesn't matter what form it takes. You can upload videos to infographics as long as it remains relevant then it should have staying power.
Social Media comes in third. Remember that it is still marketing and exposure for your brand and content can lead to more engagement and traffic. Building portfolios in social sites and creating natural friends list and fans is a sure way to go. Most social networks have their own intuitive ways of sharing, say Twitter (less is more with 140 character posts).
Email Generation or marketing is fourth but not last. This is one of the oldest online marketing methods that is still here today because it works. Build your database of email contacts and you will always have a resource to deliver your marketing through. What's impressive about this tool is that it lets you deliver fresh content and sales talk as you desire.
Next on the list at number five is online reviews or forums (actually part of social media as you would know if you have ever joined a LinkedIn group). Before probably buying something out of eBay or Amazon, online shoppers would most likely read reviews and forums to get a glimpse of how products worked for other people. What are the experts' take on it? If you don't ace well at this department, it's time to refocus on making your product outstanding first and making excellent customer service a priority.
Sixth is content that builds authority. It starts with the content you add to your website but can also be eBooks, white papers, special reports, case studies, speeches and workshops. What a single article can't comprehensively capture, you can include in a more in-depth paper. If your competitor does semi-weekly blog posts on European travel but you build a comprehensive eBook about it, complete with tips, discounts and other salivating offers; the latter option would win anytime.
The internet is a vast sea of possibilities and using it as your marketing partner is essential. There are a multitude of tools and channels that you can use to promote your business, with those that work for one business not always working for another. If you are just starting off, see what your competitors are doing and what is working for them…you may just identify something you can do better!
