Management Sponsored by
The beginning of a new year should be a time to wipe the slate clean and start anew. However, the 2009 U.S. economy can't help but be saddled with the baggage of a weathered and worn 2008, a year that brought a new president, a recession, and a new focus on the impacts and woes of small businesses nationwide.
The vast majority of the 14,615 spas1 that make up the spa industry in the United States are owned by entrepreneurs, making it a vibrant segment of the U.S. small business community. Although this entrepreneurship is what makes the profession so unique and personal, it is also what is causing the industry to fall victim to the turmoil caused by the recent economic downturn and credit crunch.
According to the U.S. Small Business Administration's Office of Advocacy, a small business is an independent business that employs fewer than 500 employees, and small businesses represent 99.7% of all employer firms in the country.2 (See Facts About Small Business.) Because of this enormous reach, small businesses may also be the ones hurt most during the recession. In fact, approximately 25,000 of the 157,000 jobs cut in October 2008 were from small businesses.3
There are two places a spa can be right now: on steady ground or in trouble. If your spa is in trouble, it is important to ask for help from experts in the industry to look at your numbers and find out why your business is being upset, says Lenny LaCour, partner, LH Connects in Glenview, Illinois, and spa industry expert. "It's hard to do it yourself because you are so attached to your business. You need to set up a business plan, start from where you are and work yourself out of it," he says. If you are on steady ground, stay the course and improve how you manage your spa by looking at things such as waste, marketing, client retention and customer service.
Although it is a widespread belief that things will get worse before they get better—especially for day spas—some spa owners, such as Monica Morrell-Dean, owner of Spa Morrell in Chattanooga, Tennessee, have yet to experience any hardship because of the current economic climate. "We are seeing a steady stream of clients this year, even more so in the third and fourth quarters, which is meeting or beating last year's numbers," she says. The five-year-old, 1,850-square-foot Spa Morrell employs 10 team members. "Our industry is recession-proof sometimes—women will always buy lipstick," says Morrell, although she admits things might scale back a bit more than they currently have. "Those clients that come four or five times a year might come two or three times instead, and buy more retail products."

Protecting the Environment
AUDUBON. Attorney General Tom Miller and the Iowa Department of Natural Resources have filed an environmental protection lawsuit against Lawrence Handlos alleging water pollution, and violation of livestock confinement requirements at several Handlos hog confinement facilities in Audubon County.
The suit alleges that Handlos owns and operates nine confinement feeding operations in Audubon County with a total capacity of 49,600 hogs. The suit alleges violations at eight of the sites.
According to the lawsuit, violations at Handlos facilities include:
The lawsuit was filed Friday afternoon in Audubon County District Court in Audubon. It seeks civil penalties up to $5,000 per violation. The suit also asks the Court to order Handlos to remedy the alleged violations, and to remove animals at most of the sites until he has obtained required construction permits, installed required drainage tiles, and complied with other terms sought by the lawsuit.
The suit says that on Dec. 5, 2003, Iowa DNR staff investigated a manure spill of over 7,000 gallons at the "4A King Farm" site owned and operated by Handlos. The manure was being pumped out of the pit below a confinement building for land application. The pump did not have a safety device to shut off automatically in the event the hose became disconnected, and Handlos employees did not monitor the pump during the land application, according to the suit. The manure flowed into a surface water intake, and eventually some of the manure discharged into a tributary of the East Branch of the West Nishnabotna River, the suit alleged.

Swedish Revival
A new book celebrates the rich decorative history of
Scandinavian style
By Laura Regensdorf
Lars Sjöberg, a former curator at Sweden's National Museum, is a passionate preservationist. Since 1966 he has bought ten magnificent structures—an airy manor, a sulfur quarry's smelting house, and a quaint wooden church among them—and has meticulously scraped away recent renovations to reveal centuries-old wall coverings and other marvels. Through his lively accounts and luminous photography by Ingalill Snitt, Classic Swedish Interiors catalogues the fruits of Sjöberg's labor. And the antiques on view may look familiar: In the 1990s he advised IKEA on its 18th-century furniture reproductions, and several of his own pieces served as inspiration. Proof that history indeed repeats itself.

In an attempt to prevent cucumber wilt I tried two methods this year. First I sprayed a kaolin clay mixture on the leaves of the plants and second I covered the plants with light agricultural cloth.
Kaolin - seemed to work but was very labor intensive - one needs to respray every few days and after every rain storm. The cucumber beetles infected the plants by mid season but not before a nice harvest. Covers - used raised beds and a parthenocopic variety - Diva (does not need to be pollinated by bees.)This actually worked extremely well. One needs to find a way to water the plants - I used a timer and drip tape. It also seems to help to elevate the cloth above the plants - I used 1/2 inch PVC pipe. This system worked well until early August when I had a major infestation with aphids. The aphids did not attack the uncovered plants so I have to assume that covering prevented aphid predators access to the plants. By the way, for cloth I used was agribon-15 which can be purchased fairly cheaply, allows 90% light transmission, minimal heat retention, and weighs half an ounce per square yard. The cover system seems to be the most useable. I ended up with lots of cucumbers from early June til mid august. I think with a few adjustments the system can work full season. I had plenty of cucumber beetles in the area but they couldn't get to the cucumbers. Once I removed the covers due to the aphids the beetle attacked and the wilt appeared. This year will add lady bugs under the covers if I see aphids. I'd enjoy hearing comments, improvements, suggestions, etc. Thanks Doc |
Follow-Up Postings:
I keep the soil under vine wet by spraying water.Wet soil under the vines keep the transpiration from the leaves under control from wilting.I do the same thing for Bitter melon and bottle gourd vines. |
I grow them on tomato cages. That keeps them very healthy. |
Little Leaf and a few other varieties are resistant to bacterial wilt. Works better than anything. |
being under some sort of cover definitely helps... i harvested cukes from the same plants in a closed tall tunnel from mid-may until last week... 25 degrees saturday night finally got them... they were divas as well. makes you realize how many of the problems with cukes are spread by cuke beetles imo... |
Biscgolf, Thanks - may I ask what zone and state you're in? Next year I may use the tall tunnel concept as the low covers I used were tough to work under and get access to the plants. |
- Posted by jamesandfely 6 (My Page) on Sun, Nov 6, 11 at 5:27
Biscgolf, Is your tall tunnel wrap with plastic or row cover? |
drscott- i am in spotsylvania, virginia - zone 7... my weather is likely very similar to yours... if you're on the eastern shore yours is milder, if out around frederick a little more harsh... jamesandfely- it is covered with plastic... i have developed a profound dislike for floating row cover material... |

2-11-2010 (2:24 am) It's Feb 11 and it's been a while since you posted about your problem with WOW and I just got to know how it's going! There is no way that someone enjoying playing a online video game can destroy a relationship. No matter what it is people are always doing what they enjoy. If it's not a video game it's something else. Guys working on cars, woman shopping etc. It's all about what people enjoy doing. There's nothing wrong with that. Nope. I don't play WOW. |

Vans Versa Skate Shoe - Men's
Another good shoe.
Pretty rad shoe. Always skate vans (usually halt cabs or eras) but I thought i'd change it up. These have lasted me about a month and are still going strong. They look sick, and are comfy. I skate but i'm also a skate photographer, and being comfortable in your shoes is important. These are awesome.

My Jewish Chicago: A Special Designer
December 11th, 2012Filed under: Collections, Exhibitions, Stories
The Jewish community of Chicago has made many contributions to the city's growth and development. Indeed, there's a long list of noted people and famous celebrities who have made their mark. I included several in Shalom Chicago but no exhibition could have included them all. Fortunately, many more Jewish Chicagoans are featured in the Museum's core exhibition Chicago: Crossroads of America. They include:
- Dankmar Adler, architect (also featured in Shalom Chicago)
- Marvin Glass, toy designer
- Benny Goodman, musician
- Benjamin Greenfield, hat designer
- Wolfgang Hoffman, designer
- Newton Minow, lawyer and chairman of the Federal Communications Commission under President John F. Kennedy
- Laszo Moholy-Nagy, designer
- Bernard Sahlins and Paul Sills, two of the founders of The Second City
- Conrad Seipp, brewer
- Carole and Gordon Segal, founders of Crate & Barrel
- Studs Terkel, radio and tv personality and author
Each person has a rich story to tell, but in this post, I'd like to turn the spotlight on Wolfgang Hoffman, a cutting-edge designer of the 1930s. Hoffman, son of well-known Viennese architect Josef Hoffman, immigrated to America in 1925 to seek greater opportunity. He originally lived and worked in New York City but came to Chicago for the 1933 A Century of Progress International Exposition, where he helped New York architect and theater designer Joseph Urban develop the fair's bold color scheme. He also designed all of the furniture and accessories displayed in the fair's Lumber Industries House.
Wolfgang Hoffman, c. 1940
His work caught the eye of William McCredie, president of the Howell Company, a furniture manufacturer based in Geneva, Illinois. Between 1934 and 1942, Hoffman worked exclusively for Howell, designing a wide array of stylish yet affordable tubular steel furniture at a time when most Americans were on tight budgets. One of his best designs is this prototype serving cart on view in Crossroads. A similar model became one of the company's best-selling pieces.
Serving cart designed by Wolfgang Hoffman, c. 1935
Hoffman left the Howell Company after the factory converted to wartime production and pursued a successful career in photography. His early talent as an industrial designer, however, is beyond dispute. The Museum is fortunate to have a rich collection of his work, including several additional pieces of furniture and many works on paper.

Hoopz Calls Shaq a P*ssy
Nikki "Hoopz" Alexander Fights Shaq At Gym.
HoopsVibe's Very Quick Call:She came up with Flava Flav. Enough said.
The love affair that was Shaq and Hoopz is now over. These love birds have called it quits after a huge fight at the gym recently. Hoopz became enraged when she was denied access to a gym that teaches gymnastics for girls 18 and under. Hoopz reportedly screamed at the gym managers that she was training for the Olympics. Oh, it gets better.
After being denied access to the gym Hoopz went ballistic and starting screaming profanity at the gym managers, while the under 18 year old girl gymnasts watched in horror. Shaq eventually managed to drag Hoopz out of the gym and back to his car. At this point she turned her rage onto Shaq Diesel calling him a p*ssy and a number of other vulgar words. Shaq refused to ride with her in the car and soon informed Miss Hoopz she was no longer welcome to live at his mansion. Oops, I hope those dreams of gymnastic gold were worth it because now you aren't going to have the real thing any more.
Shaq dumped Hoopz like a washed up reality star. Wait, she is a washed up reality star. I guess all is well in the universe. Look at the bright side Hoopz, I'm sure Charles Barkley's available or maybe you can get in next season's Apprentice. Ah, the life of the leach.

OSIPOFF: A.J. Hammons still a Boiler; Matt Painter ready to 'move on'
By Michael Osipoff email@example.com Twitter: @MichaelOsipoff April 16, 2014 11:08PM

Updated: May 19, 2014 2:01PM
A little more than a month has elapsed since Purdue's basketball season ended, with the Boilermakers losing seven straight games to finish with a 15-17 record, in last place in the Big Ten.
On Wednesday, coach Matt Painter addressed reporters extensively for the first time since Purdue lost to Ohio State in the first round of the conference tournament, reflecting on what went wrong for the Boilermakers and looking ahead to the 2014-15 season.
"You always second-guess when things don't work," Painter said. "We try our best to set the table, and make guys understand what's it going to take to be successful. I'm a big believer in that you can outwork people. You're only as strong as your weakest link, and we weren't good enough this year.
"It's no secret we didn't have great chemistry. I don't think everybody was pulling the rope in the same direction. As we go on, we're going to have that. That's something we weren't just OK at before — we were great at it. We've done this before. It's one of those things, you learn from it, you move on. You just don't keep dwelling on the past, but you do learn from it. We have to get to work."
And there also was this nugget.
"I want to move on and get better, and help guys," he said. "We've had good workouts in the spring. The horse is dead — why don't we get off it?"
Purdue on Wednesday announced that sophomore center A.J. Hammons had decided to return to the program for next season, after having contemplated leaving to enter the NBA draft.
"I've decided to stay and continue my education here at Purdue, and there are a lot of goals I still want to accomplish with my teammates on the court," Hammons said in a news release. "First and foremost, we want to get back to the postseason and compete for a Big Ten title.
"Coach Painter has been fantastic during this process with me. We have gone over every report, and I have a good feel for where I stand and what I need to improve on."
Earlier in the day, Painter had said he was planning to meet with Hammons — who averaged 10.8 points, 7.4 rebounds and 3.1 blocked shots this past season, making the Big Ten All-Defensive Team — to further discuss the circumstances, with April 27 the deadline for underclassmen to declare.
Hammons, who had sought feedback from the NBA undergraduate advisory committee, was informed last week he projected as a mid-to-late second-round pick or could go undrafted. In the interim, Painter had been collecting additional information from NBA personnel, also allowing Hammons to digest his likely draft status.
"A lot of those people in that area end up overseas or end up in the D-League," Painter had said. "There are some of them — not a lot of them — that end up in the NBA. In my opinion, he has to play the percentages of where things are. But I also give him the information and allow him to make his own decision.
"We're going to support him no matter what he does. … I want him to do what's best for him."
Wednesday also began the late signing period, with P.J. Thompson inking his letter of intent with Purdue. The Indianapolis Brebeuf point guard had verbally committed to the Boilermakers about a month ago, days after their loss to Northwestern in the regular-season finale.
Painter praised Thompson's leadership, toughness, smarts, communication skills, passing, and ability to make three-pointers and pull-up jumpers.
"He is someone who has been very successful," Painter said. "His makeup as a person and a player is what attracted us to him from Day 1.
"He just has a lot of winning qualities. … That's what a point guard does — a point guard makes other people better, and we think he's going to do that for us."
Painter started recruiting Thompson his freshman season, before offering him a scholarship as a senior.
"We've been fans of P.J. since he was 14, 15 years old," Painter said. "We just think we're getting a really good basketball player.
"We were very fortunate that he was still available and we were able to get him. We really feel like we got a steal."
Thompson — an Indiana All-Star whose father, LaSalle, also made that team in 1991 along with Glenn Robinson and Andrean graduate Brandon Brantley, now a Boilermakers assistant — joins fellow incoming freshmen forward Vince Edwards, guard Dakota Mathias, and big men Isaac Haas and Jacquil Taylor.
With the five-player recruiting class and five returning scholarship players, Purdue has three available. The Boilermakers, who have no rising seniors on their roster, continue to explore their options, at every position.
"Obviously, if you use them (scholarships) for fifth-years, you can use them again for 2015," Painter said. "If you use them for transfers, there's one off the board for 2015. We just have to focus on getting the right guy and continue to get guys that fit with us. I really like our (freshman) class. All five guys fit at Purdue."

Welcome to Pedal Co-Op's News section. Browse articles, click titles to read more, and let us know what you think!
Effective Friday, April 5th, the Pedal Co-op will be suspending our compost pick-up service.
Begining in phases over the next two weeks, Bennett Compost will be taking over our weekly compost pickup routes. We are coordinating the transfer with Bennett Compost to make this transition as seamless as possible. We are very happy to be working with our new friends at Bennett Compost, a locally owned business with values that align well with our values of zero waste, urban composting, local economies, and food access.
2013 brings a new team to the Pedal Co-op. You may have worked with Woody, Amy or Tim in the past, who have contributed much to this organization, and have since moved on. The current team consists of Meenal Raval, Robyn Mello & Zachary Powers.
To contact us, you can still use the 'pedalcoop at gmail.com' address. To speak with one of us, call 267.225.2925.
We've got a new hang out everyone! It is called the Dirt Factory and it sits on a small tract of land at 43rd & Market. It is an unassuming spot, but as the name (The Dirt Factory) suggests, the space is the biggest compost generator in West Philadelphia and it's also our designated West Philly compost drop spot.
It was an early morning for some 40,000 Broad Street runners and the Pedal Coop on May 6th, 2012. By 7AM thousands had gathered; the runners to attain personal goals and break records; The Pedal Coop to collect donated and discarded clothing and sneakers.
Internship Description:
E-Recycling (Jan 2nd-Jan 7th)
This week we will be collecting broken & obsolete electronics for e-recycling! Because these products should not be simply dumped into the trash can with the rest of your waste, they often sit around offices and houses cluttering up usable space. E-waste is the fastest growing waste stream in the country, so we know you have some you are looking to get rid of. In 2012, rid yourself of those items and use your space more productively.
In April 2009 Mayor Nutter's administration published Greenworks Philadelphia, a vision and plan to make Philadelphia 'the Greenest City in America'. The plan sets forth five comprehensive goals, 14 measurable targets, and outlines several specific strategies to reduce energy consumption, resource waste, and promote a healthy outdoor environment for every Philadelphia neighborhood.

MOORE, Okla. (AP) - Oklahoma City Mayor Mick Cornett says 12,000 to 13,000 homes were affected by the tornado that tore through a city suburb.
At least 24 people died when the tornado laid waste to Moore on Monday afternoon.
The Oklahoma Insurance Department says the financial cost of the tornado could exceed $2 billion, because of the size and duration of the storm. The disaster zone stretches more than 17 miles and the tornado was on the ground for 40 minutes.
An aerial view of the site shows whole neighborhoods obliterated, with gouged earth littered with splintered wood and pulverized cars.
The National Weather Service says the tornado was a top-of-the-scale EF5 twister with winds of at least 200 mph - the first EF5 tornado of 2013.

Literacia da informação : um desafio para as bibliotecas

AbstractThis paper draws partially from a research into the educational roles of public libraries in Portugal, concluded in 2001. After an extensive literature review, the paper discusses diverse conceptions of literacy and information literacy, and goes on to introduce and discuss several models of information literacy, and organizations and projects concerning information literacy. The role of libraries in promoting information literacy is analysed, and the paper suggests that they are key players in the process because they have a variety of information resources, information management systems, and specialized staff. Some barriers to the fulfilment of libraries roles in promoting information literacy are also identified: the scarcity of resources, lack of tradition and theory, and limited conceptions of library's roles among professionals and in society.

Charges of first-degree murder for a Christmas Day incident will move forward after General District Judge Hugh Campbell determined Tuesday there was enough cause for the case against Keith Wood, 53, of Mechanicsville, to continue to the Grand Jury.
Campbell said the witnesses and photographs presented by the prosecutors did not reveal the exact events that played out on the night the victim died, but the number of wounds on the victim led him to the decision.
An autopsy report revealed that victim, George A. Teal, died of "blunt force trauma to the head," said Chief Deputy Shari Skipper of the Commonwealth's Attorney's Office.
The preliminary hearing held March 25 was Wood's second. Prosecutors were required to present enough substantial evidence to demonstrate to the judge that an actual crime was committed.
Wood's Attorney Michael Clower argued that his client's actions on Dec. 25 were not pre-meditated and out of self-defense.
That day, the Sheriff's Office responded to a call that a person was unresponsive in Wood's home in the 8000 block of Peaks Road in Mechanicsville. First responders found Teal on the floor suffering from apparent trauma.
Teal had life-threatening injuries and was transported to Memorial Regional Medical Center. Then, Teal was moved to VCU Medical Center, where he later died from the injuries.
First responders to the scene collected several items at Wood's residence including a grey shirt, white towel and hat with red stains, according to a search warrant executed by the Sheriff's Office. The warrant also revealed that officers gathered a box cutter, 5-pound weight, small scissors and other household items.
Officers also found a wallet that belonged to the victim. In court, the officers said the item included a picture ID belonging to Teal.
According to the warrant, Wood called the police asking for help because he found a "dead guy" in his home.
Teal was found lying on the floor in the workout room at Wood's residence, according to court documents. Wood told officers that he asked for help with a bench press, but Teal put the barbell to his throat and he passed out. When Wood woke up, he found the victim on his floor with fatal body and head injuries.
In the search warrant, officers said Wood recalled the two individuals hanging out on Christmas Eve, playing on the computer, drinking alcohol and allegedly smoking marijuana.

Not so at Ford. The Escape, for instance, was introduced in 2001 and by all rights is due for a full overhaul. But instead, it's getting a face-lift plus. Think of it as a face-lift plus a tummy tuck and a butt-lift. Its appearance is completely revised, but much of what's underneath remains the same.
Luckily, the Escape has good bones. The 2008 Escape retains the previous model's neutral handling balance, stiff structure, and good ride, because it also retains its chassis. The revised exterior is more masculine than the first-generation design. Once you climb aboard, you'll notice the clean, modern, and quiet cabin, which has plenty of interior room even four-up.
Engines and transmissions carry over: either a 2.3-liter four or a 3.0-liter V-6 that is coarse and painfully slow off the line. The four-speed automatic's long, widely spaced ratios may help fuel economy, but we wonder whether any SUV really needs to hit 89 mph in second gear.Speaking of fuel economy, the 2008 Escape is one of the first vehicles to reflect the new EPA test procedures. So while on paper the EPA numbers have decreased from last year, Ford assures us that the improved aerodynamics beget slightly better fuel economy in the real world.
Standard features include an auxiliary audio jack, a revised restraint system (new seatbelts, air bags, and steering column), split rear seats that fold flat, and a rollover-mitigating stability system on all but the Hybrid model. For the first time, the Escape is available with Ford's excellent touch-screen navigation system, featuring one of the industry's best Sirius satellite radio integrations.
Ford has reduced base prices by an average of about $1000, ensuring that the Escape remains a competitive small sport-utility vehicle, even if it is a little long in the tooth.

Big brands and politicians pay close attention when Mumsnet's 1.3 million members speak out. Here, co-founder Justine Roberts talks about high-profile campaigning, flexible working, and why women deserve a bigger voice
Justine Roberts laughs at the mention of the Daily Mirror calling her and Mumsnet co-founder Carrie Longton "the most powerful women in Britain" during last year's general election campaign. "Oh really? And I can't even get my children to brush their teeth," she says.
The phrase "Mumsnet election" was coined in the run-up to polling day, when it was believed that the online community's 1.3 million members—many of them floating voters—would sway the outcome. Senior politicians queued up to do Web chats with members and the assumption was that whoever could win over Mumsnet users would triumph. This was ludicrous, says Roberts. "There are over a million mums on Mumsnet, but the idea that they are going to vote in a cohesive way is just mad. This is a group of individuals with strong opinions and they are politically diverse. There was a suggestion that the Mumsnet vote would decide the election; well, there wasn't one collective Mumsnet vote."
The origins of Mumsnet go back to 1999 when Roberts went on holiday with her one-year-old twins to a family-friendly resort that turned out to be less than family friendly. She came back thinking how rewarding it would be to have somewhere for people to pool their knowledge as well as give advice and guidance. The company was launched a year later with exactly that aim.
"At the time everyone had a Web idea; it was a real gold rush time," says the former City analyst turned football and cricket journalist. "I was in a position to go ahead with it and that was partly because I'd had children, I had given up my job and I knew I didn't want to go back to it, so there was an opportunity."
Roberts says she knew the website would be useful, but beyond that it was a matter of experimenting to see if it worked. "It was the spirit of the times—'let's go and see what happens'," she recalls. Longton, a friend from ante-natal class, came on board and an old university friend was roped in to write code for the website.
Neither Roberts nor Longton were techies, but their concept worked. "It was about being communal," says Roberts. "It was a huge learning curve and it still is, but the beauty of our site is that we have this 24/7 focus group of smart and intelligent women who are very opinionated and tell us what to do."
Mumsnet today is hugely influential with a £3m turnover, more than one million unique users every month and 25,000 daily posts on discussion boards. "They have had a phenomenal impact on people's behaviour and attitudes towards brands," says Rebecca Harrison, qualitative insight director of brand experts Added Value. "I have been surprised about the relationship women have with sites like Mumsnet, they seem to rely on them a lot."
The aim of Mumsnet was not to have political influence. "It was to create a useful peer-to-peer advice network for mums. The best people to help new parents are the mums who have been there. They are the ones who have bought the appalling pushchair they couldn't collapse," says Roberts.
But shortly after she launched the website the dotcom bubble burst and the business plan was torn up, as was any idea to make a living from the venture. "It quickly became apparent that it was not going to happen, so instead of getting offices in Clerkenwell and hiring 400 people we decided to grow it organically and we worked out of the back bedroom."
Roberts describes the whole beginning as a "dodgy moment"—she and Longton were unable to pay themselves a salary for the first five years. "You had to have a lot of belief, but we were lucky because at least our husbands took care of the mortgage," she says. "This is a hard area to make money out of if you don't have scale; organisations much grander than ours struggle."
The team worked out of their houses until two and a half years ago when it proved too complicated and the operation moved to offices in Kentish Town, north London. Roberts much prefers it anyway. "I used to have to do this thing when I was on the phone to Radio 5 Live, holding the door with my kids screaming on the other side. It could be very stressful," she admits.
Mumsnet has faced fierce criticism ranging from accusations of members being smugly middle class to outrage at its political clout. "There is a certain amount of misogyny," says Roberts. "We started noticing it when we were perceived to have political influence. There was a backlash, which almost said to me, women know your place, this isn't your territory, who do you think you are?"
It is also charged with triviality. When Gordon Brown failed to name his favourite biscuit despite being asked 12 times during his Web chat the press picked up on "Biscuitgate"; the implication was that mumsnetters were superficial. But Roberts replies: "The reason he was asked 12 times was because he failed to answer, he didn't engage. Mumsnet chats do have a way of teasing out how authentic people are. And that is the way mothers are seen—as narrow, self-interested, only interested in biscuits and not engaged with the big issues. Often we are pigeonholed, but you only need to take a look at Mumsnet talk boards to see that, yes, a lot of it is inane and insipid, but a lot of it isn't and there are some smart people discussing a wide range of issues."
So is this a group previously ignored? "Yes. Women don't have much of a voice in this country. Look at the last election—it was an election of men, all the campaign teams were male-dominated. The only look-in women got was as the leaders' wives," she says.
The bulk of conversations on Mumsnet talk boards are not about being a mother or parenting. "It is a bunch of women talking about stuff that women talk about, from highbrow political discussions to lowbrow discussion about Holby City. It is whatever women find interesting," says Roberts. "Our most active discussion is one called 'Am I being unreasonable', which is women wanting to validate their emotions and beliefs and that is followed by relationships. Pregnancy is only our fifth-biggest area of discussion."
Mumsnet is a source of information, advice and product recommendations but it also campaigns for members. "There are issues that members feel strongly about and we will campaign when there is consensus. Users organise themselves well, setting up Facebook groups, writing letters and organising Twitter campaigns. It is not a top-down thing, we are there to give a platform and sometimes we do amplify that on a Mumsnet level," Roberts explains. Successful campaigns include attracting attention for a member, Riven Vincent, who was ready to put her disabled child into care due to a lack of respite help, and the pulling of an advertisement that proclaimed career women to be bad mothers.
The ongoing campaign, Let Girls Be Girls, against the sexualisation of young girls has seen major retailers agreeing to not stock clothing that prematurely sexualises. Today some of them, including Tesco and Asda, seek guidance from Mumsnet on what is seen as appropriate and what isn't. "Mumsnetters are powerful when there is an issue they feel strongly about, partly because they are amplified by the media, but also because they are intelligent women and they know how to organise themselves," Roberts adds.
Longton says that the campaigning side of Mumsnet has evolved naturally. "Very early on it became apparent that we were building a community rather than a business and it has stayed like that although we obviously do need to make money," she says. No mean feat when many of the brands that want to work with Mumsnet are rejected. "We don't take advertising from Nestlé, which could easily be worth £500,000," says Longton.
It is rare to find an internet business that turns away advertising revenue. "We have a core policy, which is that we are here to make parents' lives easier so there are some brands and products that don't fit very well with that," says Roberts. "But it is an open dialogue with mumsnetters and we'd always go with the consensus on the site. McDonald's is on our 'no' list but they came to us not long ago and asked to do a Web chat. We put this to our members and there was a 50/50 split, but the ones who didn't want to do it felt very strongly about it so we decided not to do it."
This integrity is vital to the business. "We feel that our user group is a massive stakeholder in the operation and we have never been in a position where we had to do things that we don't think sit well with our philosophy because we are not owned by a big company and we are not chasing profits," she says.
The principle is the same when it comes to the valuable user data Mumsnet holds. "We agree not to use that data when people register with us. Our users generate our content, they are the lifeblood of Mumsnet and we take their privacy seriously. I am afraid we are not going to get rich that way."
Is Roberts the businesswoman not dismayed at missing out on this revenue? "We would have given up long ago if the ambition had been to be Twitter-like billionaires. We now make a profit, we earn enough money to pay our staff and we are still recruiting. We are not perfect but we can hold our heads up high and say we will work with brands in ways that are good for them and for our users."
Instead Mumsnet strikes other kinds of partnerships with brands. "We do a lot of insight, product testing and R&D so we could be included right from the genesis of a product to the testing of it. Ford last year gave 12 of our members a Ford Galaxy which they then filmed themselves using. These films were brilliantly authentic and very realistic," says Roberts. A recent initiative saw Mumsnet tackle family friendliness again. "We want Britain to be one of the most family-friendly places in Europe and we want to work with organisations to help them get there."
She says Mumsnet staff are often over-qualified but welcome the flexibility the organisation offers. "No one misses the kids' assembly, no one feels bad about going to the school sports day and no one feels awful if their child is sick and they have to work from home. These are our credentials, come and work here, we want you and if you have kids it is not a problem. Your kids and your family come first. When I worked in the City I was surrounded by women who had to pretend they didn't have children to get on and that is just crazy because you end up living a lie. That way companies will never get loyalty or people who are enjoying their jobs."
Although Roberts eventually wants to reduce her working hours she doesn't plan to cut back any time soon. The Mumsnet Rules book will be published in June, apps are on the way and the launch of Gransnet, an online community for grandparents, is imminent. "Like mums 10 years ago it is a demographic that is underpowered and lacks a community. We are all by nature communal and it is all about providing a space and a platform."

February 2009LIVONIA, MI—Valassis Communications has filed a countersuit against Fraser Papers in district court in Maine. Earlier, Fraser had taken Valassis to court over an alleged unpaid bill for 1.8 million pounds of specialty paper valued at $933,000. In Valassis' countersuit, the printer contends it has not paid the amount allegedly due Fraser because of an earlier outstanding debt owed by Fraser to Valassis for defective paper. Valassis says it is willing to satisfy the debt as soon as Fraser provides it an appropriate credit for the defective product.
Army Apologizes for Gaffe
WASHINGTON, DC—The U.S. Army said that 7,000 family members of soldiers killed in the Iraq and Afghanistan wars were mistakenly sent letters addressing them as "John Doe." The Army said the generic salutations were the result of a printing error. The letters were sent in December to inform survivors about private organizations that offer gifts, programs and assistance to families who have lost soldiers.
New Jersey Printers Merge
HILLSBOROUGH, NJ—East Coast Media, based here, has merged with The Printing Co., of North Brunswick, NJ. The combined company will operate under the East Coast Media name. East Coast Media provides large-format printing, binding and mailing services, among others.
Embezzler Lands Herself in Jail
MODESTO, CA—A printing company's former office manager will be spending the next year in jail after pleading no contest in December to embezzlement and identity theft charges. Prosecutors said that Jessica Sue Hoover, 25, stole $76,000 from Gowans Printing between January 1, 2007, and July 14, 2008, according to the Modesto Bee. In addition to the jail time, Hoover was ordered to pay restitution and court fees.
manroland Announces Changes
WESTMONT, IL—With customers worldwide delaying purchasing decisions due to the weak economy, manroland AG's supervisory board will trim 515 jobs in indirect functions in the Sheetfed Press Business sector in Offenbach, Germany, and 110 jobs in indirect functions in the Web Press Business sector in Augsburg, Germany, for 2009 and 2010. In addition, the Mainhausen factory located outside of Frankfurt, Germany, will be closed, and the product lines assembled there will be integrated into the main sheetfed press factory in Offenbach.
Newspapers Cut Delivery
DETROIT—The newspaper community took another hit with the announcement that the city's two dailies would reduce home delivery to three days a week, printing smaller editions on non-delivery days and encouraging people to get information online. David Hunke, chief executive of Detroit Media Partnership, which runs the Detroit Free Press and The Detroit News, said the move would be vital in keeping the papers afloat.

My garage door remote won't open the garage door but my neighbour's remote can when the wall unit's lock out mode is turned on.The opener is a Sears Craftsman Model #13953910. Neighbour has a genie. I already tried erasing the existing code by pressing the learn button but it does not go out by itself after the 6 seconds or longer and the remote still worked.The problem is the same for the two garage door openers in my house so I don't think it's the logic boards. Thanks in advance for the advice. |

Hi - I've never bought a used car, but am very likely about to. I'm looking for advice in doing so.
One that I'm looking at, and liking, is a 2004 Volvo S60 with 43,000 miles, Certified thru June '09, for $16,995. I have the Carfax report (provided by the dealer) and all seems ok with the proper maintenance at correct intervals. Thoughts? Suzieque |
Follow-Up Postings:
I'm not that familar with the cars Volvo is selling these days , but I've heard that while they still make a safe unibody their reliability isn't what it used to be as reinforced by the owner reviews in the link below . The forums at edmunds.com are also a useful wealth of information from car owners who have had experience with that car . Good luck ! |

From the archives
March 2008
The Left Behind series of books have sold over 60 million copies. The books are based on the premise that the book of Revelation deals with future events and that at one point, believers in Jesus Christ will be "raptured" off the planet to escape the "tribulation" of God's wrath upon the planet. However, this view of Revelation is rather new in church history, and is not shared by many scholars.
Richard Eckley addresses four ways of looking at the mysterious book in his new commentary of Revelation from Wesleyan Publishing House. (I'm currently editing it, so here's a very condensed sneak peek of one chapter.)
There have traditionally been four schools of thought when it comes to interpreting the book of Revelation as a whole.
These interpretations tend to see the events described in Revelation as referring to actual events from the beginning of the church until the proximate time of the interpreter.
For rather selfish reasons, the 16th century Reformers introduced this model so that they might interject themselves into the work of God in history. Thus the Reformers, or any other historicist for that matter, could say that the Roman papacy was the Antichrist, propagating false doctrine and deceiving the faithful, just as the Beast of the Revelation. The Reformers, of course, thought of themselves as the faithful witnesses called for at the end of time. This model continued to be popular after the Enlightenment, and continues this arrogant placement of the interpreter into the text.
The view had little to do with the time in which the author John wrote, but according to Mounce, "the Apocalypse was held to sketch the history of Western Europe through the various popes, the Protestant Reformation, the French revolution, and individual leaders such as Charlemagne and Mussolini."
The historicist model generally is found in most of the dispensational schemes popular today. Commentators appear to be quite skillful and ingenious when they are able to discover elaborate time schedules and symbols that match contemporary events. They often look like a religious CNN, watching events unfold in the Middle East and other world hot spots with their Bibles open to the Apocalypse on their desks. They love to point to "obvious" parallels between scripture and the unfolding political images. But when the events of history eventually prove the commentators wrong, they merely replace their fiction with new facts and move on.
In this approach, the contents of the book are not seen to relate to any historical events at all, but only to symbolize the ongoing struggle between good and evil during the church age and until Christ returns. As a system of interpretation it is more recent than the three other (preterist, historicist and futuristic) schools.
In general, the idealist view is marked by a refusal to identify any of the symbolic images with specific future events, whether in the history of the church or with regard to the end of all things. The primary benefit of this view is that it renders the apocalypse quite understandable, as well as relevant, at its face value. It is simply a book that was written to encourage the persecuted Church with the knowledge that God will someday conquer all evil and make things right.
One of the most significant criticisms brought against this view is the fact that Revelation is of the apocalyptic genre and apocalyptic documents generally are written to describe actual events in history. This also appears to contradict the clear language of the text when the writer says that Jesus will show him what must take place next (v. 4:1). If there is no real chronology according to real historical events, then this statement seems to be superfluous. Too, the section describing actual, historical churches (23) seems not to be relevant to a real situation in history at all.
The word "preterist" is Latin and means "Pre (before) in fulfillment." In this approach to the book the symbols and content relate only to events and happenings at the time of the author. The beasts of chapter 13, for example, are related to Imperial Rome and the Imperial priesthood. There is no future eschatology in the book whatsoever. This method is based primarily on relating the book to Jewish apocalyptic tracts written at that time to encourage faithfulness during times of persecution.
Therefore, the message of the book would seem to be that while the church is threatened by the state and the demand of emperor worship, those who endure will share in the final victory of God over the demonic powers which control and direct the totalitarian state.
But, one of the most significant problems with the preterist view however, is that none of what was supposed to happen, happened. Rome was not overthrown by God (though in some sense it was in 476 A.D.) and the saints certainly did not share in any such victory. In conjunction with this problem is the fact that much of what is in Revelation appears to be prophetic and speaking of a time quite distant from John's time (i.e. the return of Christ and the consummation of all things).
In chapter 3:10 the Lord says to the church at Philadelphia that they "will be kept from" the hour of trial to come upon the earth. Therefore, the seals, trumpets and bowl judgments (Chapters 6-16) are all future and occur after the rapture (1 Thess. 4:16) of the church. They relate directly to Daniel's seventieth week (see Dan. 9:24-27; a seven year period) and therefore concern Israel and not the church. [These judgments] occur in the last three and a half years of the seven-year period of Daniel's seventieth week.
The end result of this Great Tribulation is the destruction of ecclesiastical (17) and political (18) Babylon. Then Christ will return with the church and set up his kingdom (19, 20).
This interpretation relies heavily upon the distinction between Israel and the church and the distinctive plan God has for both. [George Eldon] Ladd, as well as a host of other commentators, are extremely critical of this distinction between ethnic Israel and the church. Ladd understands the seal judgments to be going on throughout the church age and the trumpet and bowl judgments (really from chapter 7 onward) to be concerned with the time of the consummation. The primary reason he argues in this fashion is because the contents of the book cannot be opened until the last seal and 6:16, 17 explicitly says that the "great day of their wrath has come, and who can stand" (NIV).
It should be pointed out how each of these methods was historically conditioned and arose out of particular concerns by the Christian community. Even by the time the Church included the Revelation in its canon the problems of interpretation were understood. Still, the Church in her wisdom knew that the epistle to the seven churches was still applicable to them as well. John himself, when writing down the account of the prophecy, was writing from an historical context to a particular set of problems and situations, and was doing so from a set of principles and ideas that could apply to future events as well. Whatever our method, we should be sensitive to those earlier interpretive principles and be true to them today.
Recognizing that people come to this book of the Bible with differing points of view should not limit the Church's openness to God speaking through it. The role that Revelation has played in giving hope and strength to Christians along the Way was often independent of being placed in any of these categories of interpretation.
Note: After editing this well-written, well-balanced commentary, I think John Wesley best sums up my position:
I said nothing less or more . . . concerning the end of the world. . . . I have no opinion at all on it: I can determine nothing at all about it. . . . I have only one thing to do, to save my soul, and those that hear me.
