Loud & Clear: 10 Tips To Make Him Hear You
9. Don't Talk to Him When He's Upset. If he's upset about something, don't try to start a conversation with him. He's already on another planet and isn't going to be able to take in, never mind understand anything you are saying. Wait until he has cooled down before you discuss anything with him.
10. Praise Him. As you are trying to get him to understand you more, praise him. The more you praise him, the more he will want to understand you. You'll start to see how his eyes light up when you bring up the idea of talking about something or *gasp* his willingness to pause a video game for an instant for you to say something.
Remember: commitment and patience will help your man understand. These tricks don't work overnight and you can't just do them one time and expect your man to understand you forever. You'll have to follow these all the time. It'll be worth it, though, just to have him understand and take interest in what you have to say.
You can conquer the flaws in your relationship and love the person you're with more than you already do – come by Relationship Repair for more relationship advice from relationship coach, Marcelina Hardy, MSEd.

Bent to sit out Hammers clash
Sunderland boss Steve Bruce is tempted to wrap star striker Darren Bent in cotton wool as he looks to prosper on two fronts.Bruce will hand record signing Asamoah Gyan a first start for the club in Tuesday's Carling Cup third-round clash with West Ham at the Stadium of Light.However, whether that will come alongside leading scorer Bent, who took his tally for the new campaign to six for club and country with a late leveller against Arsenal on Saturday, remains to be seen."I don't think it's a rest - cotton wool comes to mind," said Bruce. "Make no mistake, we have some people who need games - Bolo Zenden, for instance, is one, Asamoah Gyan is another, it might be a game to have a look at young Jack Colback - those type of people need a game."Darren wants to play in every game, but you want him playing against Manchester United and Liverpool. That's my fear, not resting him at this particular moment."He wants to be involved in every game, he wants to be involved and score a goal, that's Darren."

The Global Intelligence Files
On Monday February 27th, 2012, WikiLeaks began publishing The Global Intelligence Files, over five million e-mails from the Texas headquartered "global intelligence" company Stratfor. The e-mails date between July 2004 and late December 2011. They reveal the inner workings of a company that fronts as an intelligence publisher, but provides confidential intelligence services to large corporations, such as Bhopal's Dow Chemical Co., Lockheed Martin, Northrop Grumman, Raytheon and government agencies, including the US Department of Homeland Security, the US Marines and the US Defence Intelligence Agency. The emails show Stratfor's web of informers, pay-off structure, payment laundering techniques and psychological methods.

As long as baby and mom r healthy and able to go through labor of course.
elective c-sections?
As long as baby and mom r healthy and able to go through labor of course.
Being diabetic I bled a lot with natural birth it was a lot more risky than a c section were everything is controlled and monitored. Natural was a lot more stressful causing sugar levels to rise and fall.
I suppose it just depends on the person in general and what would be best for mother and baby.
I did recover a lot faster by having a natural birth but was way more traumatic.
The authors of What To Expect When You're Expecting have spelled out clearly that sections are often the safest method of delivery these days: "Cesearean delivery is extremely safe -- for both mom and baby -- especially with today's better technology" and they go on to say "Even though it's still considered major surgery (and the happiest kind you'll ever have) a cesarean is a very safe way to deliver, and in some cases, the safest way." I have never heard that a vaginal birth is considered "safest" for women and babies. In fact, I think the reason sections are increasing is because the risk of injury or unexpected emergencies drops drastically with a section and doctors feel more comfortable with the level of control and safety a section provides them during delivery. I think most doctors would now argue that a c-section is the safest method of birth for a baby born to a GD/diabetic mother and perhaps the safest regardless of GD. There is zero risk of birth injury to baby because the baby does not pass/squish through the birth canal which can cause injury to baby and even to mom.
With my first child, I was given the option of attempting a delivery or having a c-section. It was explained to me that I am built so small in the pelvic area that it would be very dangerous to deliver a baby that was over 6.5 pounds or so. We knew my daughter was over 8 pounds at week 37. My doctor said she would induce me if I insisted and allow me to try and avoid a section but she would not assist me in any way if the baby got stuck. When you have GD/diabetes you are almost promised a large baby (most of us are anyway). Vaginal birth is therefore taking a chance that your child could be injured. My first obligation is to protect my child -- no matter what -- even if that means I have to suffer through a longer recovery from a section. To be clear -- MANY women who have GD/diabetes deliver healthy big babies vaginally -- but they do so with the threat of injury ever present. Good medical care and skilled doctors can often avoid any injury but not always. Truth be told -- I was relieved to skip labor and all that intense pain of pushing with vaginal birth and to get rid of the worry that my child could be terribly injuried with a vaginal birth. A section isn't a picnic but it was never incredible, intense pain either. I am scheduled for a 37 week section with this pregnancy and would never dream of a VBAC when I know this is the safer method for my baby and me.
So like you said, judging anybody who has elected the safest method of delivering their baby -- even if there was a chance they could have delivered vaginally -- would not be fair. It would also show a lack of understanding of the complications and risks of GD. One nice side note about sections is that you don't blow out your bladder or have to deal with being torn or cut (in a really bad place to have a cut) or stretched out or any of the other things that can easily happen when a mother choses a vaginal birth. As What to Expect When You're Expecting puts it, "you'll also be delivering with your perineum intact and your vaginal muscles unstretched" and the plus side for baby is "there's no tight squeeze through the birth canal [so] he or she will have an intital edge in appearance over vaginally delivered babies (think round head, not pointy)". It's really a personal choice and I think it's wonderful that we live in an era where women have that kind of choice.
@Wild Strawberry Moon...WELL SAID!!!!
I hate it when people impose their emotional knowledge as if they believe this to be true and factual. Also, to JUDGE ANYONE for making a choice that best fits them is ignorant and childish!!! Every pregnancy is different and everyone handles it differently. UNLESS you are addressing your own experience there is no need to make a PUBLIC beat down on others who opposes what you do.
Ignorance is VERY contagious, hence why I try to stay off a lot of these boards cause I would hate to lose my self-respect over silly rhetoric.
Thank you again Wild Strawberry Moon for using reputable information to inform others

m/c April 2012 m/c August 2012 Cautiously expecting our Rainbow on or before October 4
You should reread my post. You seem to have gotten just one thing -- the least important of things -- from all the rest I posted. The cosmetic bonus of a section is just that -- a BONUS. A c-section is often the safest method of delivery for mothers who have GD/diabetes and their babies -- just look at the posts on this board about how many of us end up with them. It is still major surgery and carries with it all the risks associated with surgery --everybody knows that part. Vaginal birth is still the standard method for most women. But when a c-section is in order, or even elected, who is to judge or even comment? Why is this even something a normal person would bother themselves with judging other people about or wondering about? Some people have to be put out completely to have a tooth pulled at the dentist or some minor procedure done there, some people choose to have a double mastectomy before they even have breast cancer and some people choose to have their tubes tied rather than take birth control when they have decided not to have more children. We don't judge those people. I don't believe it's fair to spout off about who should do what or why, when you have no idea what people are discussing with their doctors or why they make the choices they make. Just be grateful that we live in an age of such medical advancement that we have these choices.
As for your doctors saying that What to Expect When You're Expecting is BS, I want to draw your attention to the foreword in my version -- which is written by the Chair of the Department of Obstetrics, Gynecology and Reproductive Sciences at Yale University. Maybe I'm just an education snob because I see the value in degrees from such institutions and believe enough in education that I earned my Juris Doctor/law degree myself but I'm going to say that Yale is a pretty well respected school (Our president and many before him attended school there) and that if the Chair of Yale's Department of Obstetrics, Gynecology and Reproductive Sciences doesn't think it's BS -- I'll trust his endorsement and opinion since he is looked to by his peers (other Obs and reproductive specialists) worldwide as an expert in this very subject. Not to mention the millions of copies this book has sold...
Just replying to this post as quoted above.
When you have code red in vaginal delivery and you can see the amount of blood loss before your eyes and your sugar levels are rising and falling at risky numbers YES IT WAS SAFER TO HAVE A CONTROLLED C SECTION the second time around. So no it's not hard to believe at all by far.
I am booked in for a c section again as this IS the safest option for ME.
It is different for every mother and baby no birth is the same and I respect all the mothers out there that have either a natural or c section u should be open to both.

Tuesday's shooting incident is a great example of the state of public safety in Billings.
On one hand, it represents the changing landscape that exists in Billings. It's memorable that there were two incidents that involved a gun being fired, one along a busy, but normally quiet residential street.
Shortly after the gunfire on Rimrock Road, there was a report of shots being fired at Pictograph Cave State Park.
Later, we learned that these two events were connected and that there was a probably third incident allegedly perpetrated by the same suspect, Kelly Dee Megard.
It was a disturbing thing to see two shootings in the same day. It was also notable because two shootings just don't happen around here that close together.
Usually. Until recently.
On the other hand, Tuesday's shooting was a prime example of how communication or possibly territorial disputes didn't serve the public well.
We, along with all other media, had to wait nearly 18 hours for the first hint that these two events were related. Of course, even an armchair reporter would suspect there's probably a connection, especially in Billings where shootings aren't everyday occurrences, thankfully. However, we couldn't speculate on that. Reporters are not cops, nor do we want to be.
So we waited. Police gave out little information. Same with the Yellowstone County Sheriff's Office.
We understand that investigating two shootings in two different parts of the county takes time. We understand that police don't want to rush to judgment.
But what happened on Tuesday, into Wednesday, was a lot of fear and speculation. That's the very real byproduct of no information. When there's no information, people fear the unknown. They fill in the gaps.
We don't know if the investigation was hampered because the city and the county are two different agencies. In the long run, it doesn't matter. The result was the same.
Surely by sometime before evening newscasts and the paper's deadlines, the police or county could have linked the two. They could have assured residents that they had likely been fired from the same gun.
Police and sheriff's department may argue that investigations don't follow media deadlines. That's fine and as it should be.
But there is a very real consequence to an information vacuum.
Currently, the City of Billings has decided to ask voters to support a public safety referendum that would go, in large part, to the police department. The tax increase will be hefty.
Tuesday's incidents may prove that public safety is both necessary and more resources are needed because we continue to grow.
However, if the city and the law enforcement community expect support, it is going to have to be a two-way street. Police and the sheriff, who may not directly benefit from a public safety levy, must do a better job at communicating.
Residents on Tuesday didn't know what was going on, if there was still a shooter at large, and what had happened. That didn't stop the rumor mill from kicking into overdrive.
If and when residents decide to saddle themselves with a heavy tax increase, they're going to want something to show for the investment. The city and the police department are asking for an upgrade. It's fair to expect that residents get something in return.

Hey there, I bought my mop from QVC after seeing their promotional price, just ordered additional accessories from Thane Direct UK because the mop pads clean up everything but aren't enough for the whole home. www.thanedirect.co.uk
we've got a wash room downstairs in the basement and it was disgusting covered in grout and had a mildew smell. I bought the h2o mop x5 and gave it a good spraying down with vinegar and lemon and then sprayed the shower with the hot steam using the attached jet nozzle. Incredible. I wanted to review this product here cause I ve read some posts about grout problem. Hope it helps, I removed all the grout and the smell after the first use. |
Follow-Up Postings:
You don't mean you removed the grout do you. Grout is what holds the tiles in. You just cleaned the grout right?? |
- Posted by mike_kaiser (My Page) on Fri, Jul 6, 12 at 7:31
Actually, it's the thinset that holds the tiles in place. The grout just fills in the spaces between the tiles. |
My mistake Mike, but I think you understood my reasoning. You are not suppose to remove the grout unless you are going to replace it. Just think of the stuff that would get into the cracks. |

Students of the top law schools, more so the prestigious National Law Schools, are reluctant to take up practise in courts and aim for corporate jobs.
A mere 15 per cent of students actually join the profession while about five per cent prefer teaching and research. About 30 per cent of students join domestic and international law firms, 25 per cent take up lucrative offers in companies and consulting outfits while another 20 per cent move abroad for higher studies.
These are the findings of Research Foundation for Governance in India, an Ahmedabad-based think-tank that aims to research, promote, and implement reforms to improve the legal process in the country, while a study by the Gujarat National Law University, Gandhinagar also has come up with similar findings.
This outcome has come in handy for teachers of the traditional law schools who are opposing the proposed one-year LLM course from the next academic year. As G.B. Reddy, former Principal of College of Law, Osmania University puts it, "Existing systems should not be changed for the benefit of a few students."
Dr. Reddy says only five per cent of these students are actually interested in joining teaching and to accommodate such a group the existing time-tested practices should not be tampered with, and that too without taking into confidence the teachers of conventional law schools.
The belief is that the one-year LLM course is being introduced to attract graduates of national law schools to teaching and the profession.
The studies, however, have thrown up some interesting details of why practising law in courts is not the first option. Students strongly believe that a background in litigation and a godfather is must to practise law with some respect.
The feeling is the same almost across students pursuing law courses from conventional schools or top national law schools. Similar, feelings were evoked by lawyers and judges.
Nearly 92 per cent of lawyers and judges observed that a family background helps students become successful advocates.
Among the national law schools, 46 per cent students felt the same. The general notion among junior lawyers is that people with a godfather reach the flourishing level quite fast. Moreover, family background also helps in attracting better clients and even better treatment from judges.
Some of the other barriers include not enough effective incentives, cumbersome juniorship process and lack of monetary benefits in relation to their peers in the corporate sector.

Cystic fibrosis is a genetic, life-threatening disorder affecting multiple organs. People with cystic fibrosis have a higher risk of chronic lung disease. Influenza can worsen the course of the disease in cystic fibrosis by increasing the risk of pneumonia and secondary respiratory complications. During a pandemic, flu symptoms may be more severe and complications more frequent. Severe cases of pandemic flu have occurred in people with underlying chronic conditions including people with CF. Although there is no evidence that people with CF are more likely to contract this infection than healthy people, the impact for them could be greater and the outcome worse as the lower respiratory tract is affected more often. Antiviral agents form an important part of influenza management and include the neuraminidase inhibitors zanamivir and oseltamivir. These drugs can limit the infection and prevent the spread of the virus. We did not find any trials to support or refute the use of neuraminidase inhibitors for influenza in people with cystic fibrosis. However, limited data from previous studies have shown that these drugs can be effective in healthy people and may be useful in high-risk populations if used rationally. However, the question of the safety and effectiveness of neuraminidase inhibitors for treating influenza in people with cystic fibrosis remains unanswered.

This event is sponsored by the Ruritan Club, and offers t-shirts and a breakfast for a few bucks. No registration is required and there's no official start time (this is not a race), but come early to enjoy a leisurely float. Access information to the Staunton River can be found on the DGIF web site HERE.
The official date for the Fun Float is the 4th Saturday in June. In most years, that is also the last Saturday in June, but it just so happens that every five or six years there are five Saturday's in the month of June. This year is one of those years, so the Fun Float will be June 23rd, the fourth (but not the last) Saturday of the month! This last happened in 2002. The next time we have five June Saturdays will be 2012 & 2013, so mark your calendars now! |
Here are a few photos from last year's Fun Float:

Wow it is week 20! Where has the time gone? It seems like August has sped by (unlike July which hung on for years and years). This means to all of you doing a full season or 3 month share you got 6 more weeks. Those of you going month to month have 4 weeks left. we will be doing a winter share starting the first Wednesday in November. Let me know ASAP if you want in on this. We need to get some sort of head count so we know how much to plant in hoop houses this fall. Also, we have many people interested in the winter share but I want give you first refusal (as they say in the realty biz). Unlike the main season, we do pick up every other week and you get a lot more food in your share (most of which can be stored for months on end so no rush to eat/preserve everything).
It is August and that means we are going into our most bountiful time of the year. I have been spending a lot of time putting up tomatoes (so far a lot of juice and about 1/3 the sauce I plan on making and canning), melons and making jam. Soon I will freeze peppers, make and can salsa and ratatouille, make apple sauce which will either be frozen or canned and dry apples. Hopefully, there will be enough green beans to freeze as well (but this dry weather is causing bad things to happen to the beans and you get them all this week, so none for us to put up). Doing all this work means we will eat well all winter and this is what our ancestors did in order to survive winters well. Doing this putting food by thing also means one must change how they look at and think about food. We modern Americans hardly give food any thought at all anymore as we can what we want when we want it literally 24/7. Of course, the food is usually adulterated, covered in chemicals and grown who knows where, low in nutrients, low in flavor and can even be the cause of poisoning. This is the price we pay for the "privilege" to be mindless about what we eat.
To be mindful as you all are finding out, means a lot more work just obtaining food (you joined a CSA and make weekly trips out to the farm to get your seasonal food). Plus you have to think about food much more. You have to start thinking about seasonality and what that means to your food choices. And when you take the next step-putting up food for winter you have start learning how to think ahead 3 to 6 months in the future as to what you will be eating. As farmers we long ago found you have to think ahead a minimum of 5 years when farming Organically in order for the crop rotation and soil fertility plans to work. we also have planted crops such as grapes, peaches and paw paws that take years and years to get to the point of bearing fruit. We hope next year we will have enough grapes to supply the FSI (we should have this year but got well under 4 pounds out of 30+ plants, such is life. We have been waiting on these things for 5 years). The paw paws will be another 4 to 6 years before we get anything and the peaches get attacked by deer and have yet been able to grow more than 5' tall (bucks rub their racks on the poor trees and break them off). At least the apples we planted when we moved here are beginning to produce. But I digress, back to long term thinking about food. farming forces one to take a really long view. Putting food up for winter forces one to think about food 6 to 12 months out. I do this pretty much with no thought anymore. I just know that when certain crops come in it is time to pull out the canning and dehydrating equipment and get working. But I also deal with people who are just getting into this sort of thing and know they face great disappointment when they waited too long to buy their canning maters or cannot find any bushels of green beans because 10 years ago we farmers found the market for bulk foods had disappeared so we all quit growing for that market and went with the much more lucrative selling by the piece or pound market (we make 2 to 3 times more this way than selling in bulk). The lesson here is, if you want to put up lots of food either grow your own rather large canning garden or contact growers before the season starts and ask if they will/do grow bulk quantities of what ever it is you want to put up for winter (and see, here is the whole "you have to think months ahead" idea again.).
Now all that said, we do have in bulk quantity Amish paste tomatoes, sweet peppers (or will in about a week), apples and it looks like pears (but they won't be ready for another 3 to 4 weeks). If you are interested let me know. The bulk tomatoes will last maybe another 2 weeks, the rest at least 3 weeks (probably longer). Let me know if you are interested in buying any of these things and I can give you prices and amounts.
The shares will be ready after 4 pm and like last week there will be two bags for everyone. One in the fridge and the rest (tomatoes) on the shelving by the fridge. Thanks to everyone who has been returning their containers, rubber bands, bags, etc., to us, keep 'em coming. It may not be much but every little bit we keep out of the landfill counts.
Okay here is this week's recipe (which i realize the share does not have all the ingredients for, oh well)
1 or 2 eggplant, cubed
several tomatoes, cubed
1 medium yellow or red onion cubed
1 bell pepper (green or ripe) cubed
2+ garlic cloves minced/pressed
1 medium zucchini cubed
8 oz container of mushrooms sliced
1 TBL dried basil
1 TSP dried oregano
1 TBL dried parsley
1/2 cup grated parmesan
olive oil
salt to taste
In a hot pan over medium heat add the olive oil, onions, shrooms, zukes, eggplant and peppers and cook stirring regularly. When the onions get translucent than add everything else except the cheese and cook covered (lower the heat a bit) for about 20 minutes. Now add the cheese, taste and adjust seasoning if needed and cook another 5 to 10 minutes. Serve over pasta. This will store in the fridge about a week and freezes well (without the cheese).
What's in the share
Pepper-several green to ripening sweet peppers.
Hot peppers- several jalapenos and cayennes. I have found the jalapenos to not be hot, is that your experience? Please let me know
Eggplant-several black bells and one white. I was hoping to include the other two types but after yesterday's harvest had less than 3 of each. Such is life on the farm.
Garlic-a couple of purple Glazer this week
Tomatoes-around the same amount of large tomatoes you got last week. around 1/3 of the cherry tomatoes you got last week.
Blue Lake Green beans-you will get close to 1.5 pounds this week. The heat and dry conditions have brought out the bugs so these beans are damaged but still very very usable (they just look ugly). This will be the last of the beans for a while. We do have more plantings coming up and hopefully the insect damage will be far less in September/October
Potatoes-you will get either red or white taters. Hopefully next week Eugene will decide to dig up some of the exotics like the fingerlings, German Butter Ball and Blue
Watermelon-a red water melon this week, i don't know what type as we grow 4 different ones. But it should be good
Cantaloupe-another cantaloupe this week, likely the last week for these melons
Raspberries-1 box of sweet berries, like the melons this is likely the last week for raspberries
Arugula-another bag of our arugula
Apples-The first of the fall apples. We believe they are an old apple called Dr. Matthew's (this is what the apple guy at the Oxford farmers Market said they could be). They are sweet/tart and crisp and unlike the vast majority of apples raised with no chemicals (which means they can be less than perfect). You get 8 of them

Should there be any noticible/measureable connector rod play at the flywheel or rod? This got my attention while inspecting my old late 1980s Poulan S25 Pro for excessive bar oil or blow-by attracting a mess of sawdust.
1. My repair manual d/n address this spec, online I found there should be none vs the noticeable movement not at TDC. There are no signs of heat at the connection or a knock. Would there be if this is excessive? 2. The excessive bar oil appears to be coming from the tank's vent. I feel this is due to a bad auto oiler diaphragm or blockage. Finding parts, age, etc might be an issue. I can live with sealing off the auto pressure if this is truly a known problem "since the manual oiler works". 3. Why would I have oil tank pressure causing excessive oil if the auto oiler is bad? Plus, I used low psi to test the split tank design and pressure came out at the bar's oil port. 4. History: Purchased about 1988, avg. use of 2-3 cords per 20 + yrs, replaced piston & rings about 10 yrs ago due to bad /seized piston skirt in good chrome cylinder (below ring travel). Thanks In Advance for any Help. Experimenting Loger! |
Follow-Up Postings:
How are you checking for play? there should be no play in either rod bearing, big end little end. you might be feeling a little ring play. in mid stroke of the piston place a wood dowel on the top of the piston and gently rotate the flywheel back and forth with a little pressure on the end of the dowel. saw is probably not worth replacing too many parts. No noise? run her till she blows... |
Thanks Rotocop! I checked the play in the crankcase just below the reed. A direct check with no piston movement vs moving rod to crank. I expected to feel a little side play bit not related to the dia on the connection. As you stated, I w/n spend any money on this saw that has paid well over the years. I would expect a knock /noise or etc if it's time to part it out vs blowing it. I have two other S25s to share the parts on but this one has been my favorite. It seems to start and run better than others with no signs on age and less than 2-3 cords on them. What would you think would be the avg years/cords expected on a small mid priced saw (avg maintained and cost about 250.00 in 1988)? I rebuilt this one once (piston & ring kit) because I d/n see any quality in later saws in this range. loger |
You should go out to the knick-knack store, and buy a nice, big, red ribbon, tie it to the handle, and then hang it on a wall, where it can rest, in appreciation of a job well done! Check it over very carefully, and if you see a long, red, squishy thing hanging out of it -- don't be frightened--thats its tongue! ;0) |
It Is Time To Move On To # 2 Saw! Possibly I am not hearing a knock due to muffs. I did get a good clean look today at blow-by coming from between the cylinder and case in less than 2-3 minutes (after checking bolt's torque and from the bar oil tank's vent. I would think that is an indication of high crankcase pressure from worn rings? BUT! "with good compression and power"? loger |
Get ahold of an iron apron, and run her until she goes "BANG", then hang it on the wall, with the big red ribbon! |

Everything You Want To Know About The Economy In 2011
Money 101: How To Help Your Parents Through The Recession
It seems like the floundering economy has taken its toll on everyone in some way or another. Maybe you ended up in the unemployment line, or maybe your pantry's stocked with nothing but store-brand food. And while the financial environment may have led you to cringe whenever you look at your checking account statement, our generation is lucky in that we have plenty of time to recover before we're ready to start thinking seriously about retirement.
But what about your parents? If they haven't retired already, they're probably getting close, and they have much less time to recover if the economy took their finances down with it. Knowing how to help your parents can be tricky, but they may be at a point where they really need you. Keep reading »
Money 101: How To Make The Most Of Reverse Empty-Nesting
Sometimes when you hit rock bottom, there's only one place to go – back home with Mom and Dad. As layoffs and overwhelming debt are knocking members of our generation on their asses, many are flocking home to the safety net they couldn't wait to escape at age 18. There isn't any shame in going home to catch your breath and regroup, but there's a way to approach the situation so you really do get back on your feet and avoid causing more angst than the My Chemical Romance blaring from your little brother's room.
The Frisky hit up Rick Kahler, an NAPFA-registered, fee-only financial advisor and author of four books on financial planning and money psychology, for advice on how to move home and get independent without feeling like you're re-living the turmoil of your Jordan Catalano-crushing youth all over again.

Want A Smartphone With That? American Eagle To Offer Free Phones
Do you ever shop at American Eagle? (We stopped sometime after we realized we don't belong to a fictional rugby team.) If you don't frequent the all-American retailer, you might want to start. Come July 21, AE will be offering free smartphones to customers who "try on the company's jeans," says the Wall Street Journal. Whoa, was that a fact-checking error, or did we indeed read the word try, not buy? Apparently, all you have to do is wedge your butt into a pair of destroyed skinny jeans (assuming you can actually stand to do this in the ungodly summer heat), and you'll receive directions to a sign-up website offering free cell phones (the BlackBerry Bold, the Motorola Backflip, and the HTC Aria are the choices), if you agree to a two-year contract with one of the AE listed carriers. Shoppers will also get a $25 American Eagle gift card. All of this is part of a promotion the company is hoping will put them back on track, as they haven't been able to keep up with the economy and have fallen slightly out of step with style.
It's an interesting proposition, but we have to wonder … does a free phone for just trying on jeans seem almost too gimmicky? [Wall Street Journal] Keep reading »
Rich People Shop At Kohl's?
There are two types of wealthy people. Those who go on reality television to show off their private jets and bling and Caribbean estates. And then there are rich people who are also cheapskates, and won't spend money on peculiar things, like clothes. (Come to think of it, Daddy Warbucks did wear pretty much the same outfit every day.) Or so it seems, according to surprising new research about where they shop. Check out the full infographic after the jump. Keep reading »
Sign The Economy Is On The Up? Black Is Out, Bold Is In
When the economy hit its first slump, the fashion industry became one of the many lenses through which we measured the damage. So, it's only natural to gauge the recession's overall improvement by monitoring positive changes in the fashion world. Today, The New York Times asserts that a resurgence of bright, bold clothing is a tell-tale sign that the economy is recovering.

ET 500: To constantly revisit business models has been M&M Financial's key learning
Taking it one step further, M&M Financial Services through its subsidiaries also offers innovative mortgage financing and insurance products to customers. A critical factor in the company's success has been its ability to design products which are simple, but based on the cash flow of customers and their ability and willingness to repay.
"The fundamental of any financing is that there has to be an interest from the borrower in that transaction otherwise why should he even repay," reasons Iyer.
He reckons that if a strategy is based on the customer being the centre piece coupled with the right people to deliver, then that would be ideal to ride out a bad business cycle. This has helped to more than double the company's total income to Rs 2,794.6 crore and more than tripled its net profit to Rs 620 crore in the last five years.
The biggest challenge for this CEO going forward is the internal challenge of continuously building capabilities of people and ensuring that their motivational levels remain high to participate in the growth process. That is where their training academies help them.

A mike I've used is the Shure SM-58, one of the more popular affordable

modest windscreen performance. I run that into the low impedance input
of a quiet Behringer mixer and its line-out into the computer's
line-in. The dynamic range and fidelity are good as is the overall voice.
I find that with my rather high-end acoustic guitars positioning the
microphone with the ball below the sound hole, tipped up enough to be
pointing at the strings above the sound hole and close enough where the
resonance of the top is within the off-axis pick up pattern give me a
strong voice with balanced wood, string and projection, and with a
minimum of left hand finger noise.
