Food truck marketing has become second nature for the most successful food truck owners. For the less successful, it's become a bit more difficult.
To help those of you struggling, we've compiled a list of the top four food truck marketing principles for you to use to get a better understanding and grasp of the marketing needed for your food truck business.
4 Key Principles Of Food Truck Marketing
Food Truck Marketing Has To Pay For Itself
The idea of a marketing budget for your food truck needs to be forgotten. Most food trucks define it as a percentage of their sales. [insert irritating buzzer sound] WRONG!
If you have a reliable way of investing $10 and getting back $20, how many of these ten dollar bills would you invest? (Hint: As many as you can get a hold of)
Then why would you cap your food truck's marketing budget at an arbitrary number? The simple reason most do is that vendors typically aren't sure if a ten dollar bill invested in your food truck marketing can reliably return $20 or any money at all.
If you happen to fall into this camp, you need to change the way you approach food truck marketing. There is always a way to measure and to know how much money each marketing campaign is generating for your mobile food business.
The World Doesn't Need Another Food Truck
I have started hearing this in some of the large food truck communities. Usually from people looking to maintain their market share in those communities. It is up to every vendor to prove this statement wrong.
To do this, ask yourself these questions:
- What makes your food truck unique?
- Why should a customer come track down your food truck all the other options consumers have in your market?
If you can't answer these questions unfortunately, the world can do without YOUR food truck.
Food Truckin' Isn't Easy
Yes the mobile food industry is a tough one to master, however it can be simple if you follow the right formula. Have you created an operations manual for your food truck? If not, why not? If you do, how often do you and your staff refer to it?
For how long can you afford not to be IN your food truck? Is that one shift? One day? One week? How about a month?
If your food truck depends on you being there for every shift, or every catering event, you don't have a food truck business. What you have is a food truck job.
Build Customer Relationships
You may be in love with the equipment you installed in your food truck kitchen, or with the truck itself. Or maybe you love your recipe book and the beautiful menu board your graphics designer created for you.
This is all good. However, all that has very little to do with the real value of your business.
What you need to be in love with is your customers. You also need to become compulsive about maintaining an up-to-date list with all their contact information as well as birthdays and other important dates in their lives.
Although the industry is less than a decade old, the food truck industry is always changing. One aspect in that will never change is the importance of relationship food truck marketing.
Do you have any additional tips for vendors taking control of their food truck marketing? If so, we'd love to hear your thoughts. You can share them in the comment section below, Tweet us or share them on our Facebook page.

Derailment at Santon near Foreign Ore Branch Junction, Scunthorpe
25 January 2008
Heavy Rail
At about 10:48 hrs on Friday 25 January 2008, the tenth wagon of freight train 6M49 - the 09:02 hrs service from Immingham Docks to Rugeley Power Station - derailed on a plain line at Santon, between Wrawby Junction and Foreign Ore Branch Junction, Scunthorpe. The front four wheels of the wagon, which was loaded with coal, left the rails, and the train continued for just over a mile before stopping. No one was injured in this derailment, but there was considerable damage to the railway infrastructure and the line was subsequently closed for over a week while repairs were carried out.
The RAIB investigation identified that the immediate cause of the accident was that the front right-hand wheel of the wagon rode over the rail as the train traversed a left hand curve at Santon. This was because the load on this wheel was significantly reduced by the combined effect of a number of track geometry faults close to each other. The local Network Rail inspection and maintenance regime had not detected that these faults, which had been addressed by maintenance action three months prior to the derailment, had re-occurred.
The track geometry was deteriorating rapidly because of considerable amounts of water running in the formation beneath it. No-one reported or responded to the signs of water and poor drainage around the point of derailment. The load on the first wheel to derail was also reduced by coal being unevenly loaded in the wagon.
As a consequence of this accident, the RAIB has made eight recommendations targeted at the infrastructure owner Network Rail relating to track inspection and maintenance standards, track drainage at Santon, the identification of the exact location of rapid track deterioration, the monitoring of track repair quality and guidance about action to take if water affects the track.
One further recommendation to address the uneven loading of the wagon is targeted at Freightliner Group Limited.

This is the intermediate shaft that Toyota uses for the steering TSB. I bought it planning to replace the intermediate shaft myself, but I wasn't able to easily remove the old one. And to be honest, after dealing with some of the incompetence I've seen with the dealerships, I don't trust them to do it. It's my only vehicle and didn't want to screw something up, and actually I'm kicking around the idea of selling and buying something new anyway.
Asking $215 shipped. The dealership will tell you around $225 and then charge you almost $250 with their fees and taxes. I'll accept a USPS MO or Paypal with an additional 3%. IM with any questions or interest.
I'll probably be returning it to the dealership sometime next week if there are no takers here.
ETA: This is the part number: 45220-04020. The old steering shaft is 45220-04010.

Looks like pretty good shooting on the part of the would-be victim - the video seems to shot three marked locations of brass, which may mean he went three hits for three shots.RANGE COUNTY, Fla. (WOFL FOX 35) - Authorities are searching for an attempted robber in Winter Garden.
A man at a bank ATM found himself staring down the barrel of a gune arly Friday morning. He told police he spotted a suspicious SUV parked across the street from the back when all of a sudden the SUV was parked next to him and a gunman got out. Police said the gunman opened fire on the bank customer but he was also armed. The victim drew his weapon and returned fire hitting the gunman three times.
Lt. Keith Ralston of the Winter Garden Police Department said the injured gunman got back into the getaway vehicle with his two partners and they all took off. Some police officers nearby heard the gunfire and immediately began searching the area. Lt. Ralston said officers saw the getaway vehicle speeding and driving recklessly. They followed the driver until he turned onto Roper Road. The vehicle stopped and three people got out. One of the people in the silver SUV told police he had been shot. Police said two others fled into the woods but not for long.
Winter Garden robbery and shooting
Now, the bad. The victim was at an ATM at 0300, and noticed the "suspicious" vehicle containing the failed robbers before he pulled up to the ATM. Seems to me that that would have been an excellent opportunity to drive away and save himself a lot of aggravation (as well as risk to his own life).
They're still looking for the third suspect. The one he shot is in critical condition in the hospital, and one of the remaining two was caught after a brief chase.

Gloucestershire badger cull pilot fails to hit 70% target
The pilot cull of badgers in west Gloucestershire has failed to meet the 70% target set by the government, official figures have shown.
In the additional five weeks and three days of culling, 213 badgers were killed, giving an overall total of 921.
It shows only 40% were culled during the operation, which ended on Saturday.
Rural affairs minister Owen Patterson criticised "a small minority who resorted to widespread criminality" in an attempt to stop the cull.
Campaigners said Mr Patterson's claim of criminality was "without any basis of fact whatsoever" and said the cull had been a "complete failure".
But BBC Environment Correspondent Matt McGrath said Mr Patterson was "essentially saying you have to judge it over the longer time frame".
'Ludicrous and inhumane'A similar cull pilot in Somerset ended last month after it also failed to meet its target even after a three-week extension.
In that area there was an estimated 65% reduction in the badger population - the target was 70%.
Missing both the original and the revised badger target for Gloucestershire might be seen by many as evidence that the cull has failed - but that's not the view of Environment Secretary Owen Paterson.
In his statement he says the cull in Gloucestershire has been "successful in meeting its aim in preparing the ground for a fully effective four year trial".
Essentially Mr Paterson is saying you have to judge it over the longer time frame.
But some critics believe taking almost three months to shoot about half the target you were supposed to kill in six weeks is evidence the free shooting method that was used has some serious flaws.
According to Care for the Wild and several other campaigning groups, the culling policy has shown itself to be too expensive, ineffective and cruel.
They are calling for revised and improved cattle management systems and increased efforts to vaccinate badgers.
But Mr Paterson says the government is "resolved" to continue to tackle TB in badgers by culling.
And as he has so closely identified himself with the policy, it is unlikely to change while he is in charge at Defra.
Speaking after the figures were published Mark Jones, Executive Director of Humane Society International (HSI) UK, said: "HSI UK hopes that Defra will now do the decent thing and admit that killing badgers to control TB in cattle is a ludicrous and inhumane idea.
"We urge Defra to abandon its plans to roll out this calamitous cull elsewhere in the country."
Last month, the cull in west Gloucestershire was extended by an additional eight weeks, from its original six-week duration.
Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs Owen Paterson, said: "The aim of the extension was to achieve the earliest and greatest possible impact on (Bovine TB) bTB in the area.
"The decision to extend has been shown to be the right one, with significant numbers of badgers removed at the point that the extension was ended.
"I would like to pay tribute to the local farmers and landowners who have undertaken the pilots in both areas, often in difficult terrain and weather, and often in the face of intimidation by a small minority who resorted to widespread criminality in their determination to stop this disease control policy."
But Jude Walker from Gloucestershire Against Badger Shooting said: "Mr Paterson accused the badgers of moving goalposts and this statement show he's moving the parameters."
She said the cull was "ill conceived and ill thought-out, expensive and won't help cattle famers one iota".
"What we're yet to hear and learn is how much this is cost but the main cost has been in our wildlife," she said.
An independent panel of experts will now consider the information collected during the pilots on the safety, effectiveness and humaneness of controlled shooting.
This information will be used by the minister to make a decision on any wider roll-out of badger control operations in the parts of England most severely affected by bTB.
Government ministers and the National Farmers' Union believe culling badgers will curb the disease in cattle spreading across England.
Figures from Defra show more than 19,998 cattle were slaughtered in the first half of 2013 which is down from 21,581 in the same period in 2012.
New herd incidents in the UK have fallen from 3,039 cases in the first half of 2012 to 2,873 in the first half of 2013.

Final Four 2015

The Final Four 2015
Historical Ticket Prices
The culmination of weeks of March Madness begins on April 4 with the Final Four. The two national championship semifinal games will be played in Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis. Which teams will get the chance to play is anyone's guess, so fans tend to wait until the Regional Championships have concluded before making the investment. A ticket to see both Final Four games last year cost an average of $608 on the secondary market. The 2013 Final Four was the most expensive since SeatGeek started collecting data on the tournament; that year fans paid an average of $743 to see Michigan beat Syracuse and Wichita State lose to Louisville. Three of the biggest programs in college basketball and an amazing Cinderella story in Wichita State contributed to making 2013 such an outlier. Conversely, the 2012 Final Four was the least expensive Final Four matchup in the past five years where fans paid just $358 on average to see both games. Because Kentucky and Louisville play each other every year, fans were not excited to see their matchup in the Final Four. As a general guideline, Final Four Tickets will be the most expensive when historically dominant teams make the semifinals while upsets by mid-tier competitors tend to deflate ticket prices.
Factors Affecting Final Four Ticket Prices 2015
The Final Four is still a long way off, but one factor that we can anticipate is location. Because Indianapolis has hosted the Midwest Regionals twice recently, we can try to extrapolate how it compares as a host city to other locations. Because of proximity issues, ticket to the Regional Championships in Indianapolis were relatively cheap compared to the average price of other Regionals. As a result we should expect there to be a slight dip in the price of Final Four tickets this year relative to the past. On the other hand, if a local team like Notre Dame makes it to the Final Four, expect ticket prices to skyrocket. Tickets to the Final Four and National Championship seem to be much more contingent upon the particular matchups than on geography, so it's still unclear how 2015 will shape up.

Anthony Johnson moves to 205
Seriously how the F did this guy ever make 170?!!?!!! He moves up still can't make weight. He'd be better off moving to heavy.
Standing next to the 6-foot-2 Anthony Johnson (11-4), it's hard to believe the broad-shouldered slugger ever found a way to make it down to 170 pounds.
And while his critics would immediately point to the four times Johnson has missed weight in his 15 professional bouts, "Rumble" isn't interested in arguing about the past.
After electing to make the move to light heavyweight, Johnson insists he's happier than ever. The stress and worries that once accompanied his fighting career are gone, and at 28 years old, Johnson feels he's making a new start to his career.
"It is a new start," Johnson told MMAjunkie.com (
). "It's now or never, and I still have a lot of improving to do, especially being at 205 pounds. There are good strikers, good ground guys. There are guys like Lyoto Machida at 205 pounds. He's a threat to anybody. We'll see. I'm just excited about it, and we'll see what I can do."

The ACA still looks to deceive
Sunday, December 29, 2013
In a recently released statement, the White House claimed repeal of the Affordable Care Act would "raise costs (and) strip protections from New Hampshire families."
It's kind of like being lured by a television ad to buy one and get one free. Truth be told the price of the one you buy has simply been doubled to cover the cost of the one labeled as free. In the case of health care, ObamaCare gives away services to some for free while having to charge more elsewhere.
Again we make no challenge that this has been one of the long-standing problems with health care in America. But it would have been an easier one to address by establishing a nationwide high risk pool tied to the sale of insurance policies across state lines.
While the Obama Administration may argue with the specifics, such studies show that ObamaCare is really about redistributing costs, not necessarily cutting them — something an honest plan to replace ObamaCare needs to do.

ReLiSimple Recipes and Shopping Lists
Full user review
"pretty good, but takes some work to put in recipes."
web based. helps organize recipes & makes shopping list relatively easily, as long as you use the same wording for each item. for example if you say shredded cheddar in one recipe & grated cheddar in another, they will not show up together on your list.
can't cut & paste ingredients. cannot change recipe servings like some other software
pretty good way to save recipes & have them travel with you, but not as good as gourmet recipe manager, which is a free download, but doesn't work on windows.

It can be so difficult to commit to outpatient rehab at physical therapy clinics, but you have to think of the whole thing as a commitment to getting better.
When you've injured yourself it's easier than people might expect to brush off the therapy you need to get better.
Not through anger or grief either. Just because it's easier not to do it.
But, if you have to commit to coming into a clinic every week, if you know people will miss you if you miss your appointment, then you will have extra motivation to show up and do what needs to be done.

The most immediate event we just witnessed was either the greatest of all-time or the worst of all-time with no in between. It often dumbs down sports discourse and completely ignores the historical perspective we have gained over the years.However, that doesn't mean that the most recent wasn't also the best, capably illustrated by the overall performance of NFL tight ends in 2011. Last season was, without a doubt, the greatest season for tight ends in NFL history. Rob Gronkowski of the Patriots and Jimmy Graham of the Saints rewrote the record books, with the former coming out just ahead. Gronkowski's 1,327 receiving yards were the most by a tight end in a single season. Graham's 1,310 came in a close second. Gronkowski also set the single-season record for most touchdowns by tight end with 18. No doubt Ben Coates was nodding in approval all season long.But it wasn't just Gronk and Graham laying down a marker for the tight end position. Seven tight ends caught at least 75 passes last year, with Brandon Pettigrew, Tony Gonzalez, Aaron Hernandez, Jason Witten and Kellen Winslow, along with Gronkowski and Graham. Seven tight ends racked up at least 800 receiving yards (five of the seven above, with Dustin Keller and Brent Celek replacing Pettigrew and Winslow), and Hernandez, Gonazlez, Antonio Gates and JerMichael Finley joined Gronk and Graham to give the position six guys with at least seven touchdowns. And remember, Finley and Gates were considered disappointments last year, and we haven't even mentioned Vernon Davis or Owen Daniels, the latter of whom lost most of the season to injury. Simply put, coupled with the dominance of the passing game in the NFL, we're smack dab in the middle of the Tight End Gilded Age.What was once unthinkable is now a certainty for the 2012 season. We will have two tight ends off the board in the first 15-20 picks. Depending on your league, Gronkowski or Graham could go in the first round. The first 60 picks of an average draft -- that's just five rounds in a 12-team league -- could feature as many as six or seven tight ends. Just five years ago, basically everyone's draft strategy for tight ends was, "I'll just wait unless I get Gates or T-Gon." Now half your league will have their starting tight end among their first five picks. With all due respect to Bob Dylan, the times aren't a-changin.' They have a-changed.We break down the tight end position in depth here, including the top 25 by tiers below:Fred Davis, Redskins -- Davis still seems like a young player in terms of experience, but the USC product is entering his fifth season in the league, and at 26-years old, appears primed for a breakout. Having spent his entire career thus far with the Redskins, he'll team up with easily the best quarterback he has had as a pro when Robert Griffin III makes his NFL debut. Even while dealing with supposed quarterback play from Rex Grossman and John Beck last season, Davis was well on his way to a monster year. In 12 games, he caught 59 passes for 796 yards and three touchdowns, but he lost the last four games of the year to a drug suspension. He fits the mold of the Gronkowski/Graham new-age tight end, coming in at 6-4, 258, with speed to burn. He's the fourth tight end on my board behind the elite options at the position and the next guy on the list.Jermichael Finley, Packers -- If the football gods wanted to build a tight end from scratch to dominate the NFL in 2012, whatever they built would probably come out looking a whole lot like the 6-5, 247-pound Finley. It's not often that a tight end can catch 55 passes for 767 yards and eight touchdowns and have that seen as an underachieving season. In fact, before last year it was impossible. But those are exactly the numbers Finley posted in 2011, a year most observers would say he left something to be desired. There's no doubt Finley is a freakishly talented athlete who has the ability to be an unstoppable force in the red zone, so long as he can cut down on his drops. It doesn't hurt having the league's best quarterback on your team, as well as weapons outside like Greg Jennings and Jordy Nelson to help keep the middle of the field open. Finley will split out wide his fair share, forcing teams to shift alignments or double, as a cornerback just can't handle his physicality. I'm expecting Finley to post numbers similar to Graham's 2011 season.Jacob Tamme, Broncos -- During Peyton Manning's last season as the starter in Indianapolis, a virtually unkown tight end stepped up alongside Dallas Clark to catch 67 passes for 631 yards and four touchdowns. That tight end was Tamme, whose fortunes disappeared along with Manning's presence last year. The two have teamed up again in Denver, and they appear ready to pick up where they left off in 2010. Manning has always fed his tight ends well his entire career, and while Demaryius Thomas and Eric Decker have both already become the objects of desire for plenty of fantasy owners, Tamme could make just as great an impact, relative to the rest of the players at his position. He remains largely unknown, and will likely remain on the board while some of his counterparts with more recognizable names, less talent and dimmer prospects for this season hear their names called. By season's end, he'll be comfortably in the top 10 at his position.Kellen Winslow, Seahawks -- Winslow remains a tantalizing talent with just the type of recognizable name that could get someone unjustifiably taken in front of Tamme. Coming of a 75-catch, 763-yard campaign, Winslow might appear to be back among the weekly starters at the position. Don't believe what those numbers suggest, though. Winslow is likely starting the downside of his career, and he's in a situation in Seattle that is unsettled, at best. While he caught 75 passes a year ago, only two of them resulted in scores. Moreover, his 10.2 yards-per-catch was the second lowest of his career in a season when he played more than 10 games. Seattle has two unproven options at quarterback -- Matt Flynn, getting his first crack at a starting gig, and rookie Russell Wilson from Wisconsin -- and one proven bust in Tarvaris Jackson. There's not a lot to get excited about from the team as a whole or Winslow individually, yet his name will likely lead someone to counting on him as a starter at the beginning of the year. Make sure that someone isn't you.Tony Gonzalez, Falcons -- If you've been reading my football columns, you know that I'm not exactly bullish on the Falcons this year. You know that I think they will miss the playoffs, and that it will have a negative impact on the numbers of everyone on the offense, other than Julio Jones. Considering the name at the top of this paragraph is "Tony Gonzalez" and not "Julio Jones" you can see where we're headed. Gonzalez had a great year at the age of 35, catching 80 passes for 875 yards and seven touchdowns. It's certainly possible he keeps on rolling right until the day he retires, but I think he'll be part of the collateral damage in Atlanta this season. Given the fact that the tight end crop is as deep as we've ever seen, Gonzalez won't justify being drafted as a top-eight tight end when we look back on the 2012 season.Lance Kendricks, Rams -- Last year around this time, most of the football-savvy world was in the tank for the Rams, proclaiming them the clear favorite in the NFC West. Then they spent the first six weeks of the season reminding us why they're the Rams, en route to a 2-14 season. Around the same time the NFL world was anointing them division champs in August, I was writing about Kendricks and his sleeper potential as a rookie tight end. Needless to say, that didn't exactly pan out. However, I think we can chalk that up to a lost season in St. Louis, not a lack of ability from Kendricks. The talent that made him one of college's best tight ends at Wisconsin and a chic sleeper pick last year is still there, and with a better year from Sam Bradford (how could it be worse?), I believe that potential will manifest itself in the form of results on the field this season. Like many of the guys listed above, Kendricks is a catch-first tight end with great size, checking in at 6-3, 247 pounds. He's admittedly a deep sleeper, but if you miss out on all your earlier targets, he's a great fallback option for one of your last couple picks.Coby Fleener, Colts -- The rookie landed in a great spot, at least in terms of familiarity, as he'll get to keep on catching passes from college teammate Andrew Luck in Indianapolis. Luck and Fleener made for one of the most prolific quarterback-tight end duos in the NCAA a year ago, with Fleener earning All-America honors after catching 34 passes for 667 yards and 10 scores. While there's a sense of excitement around the Colts this year, the team won't be much better than the squad that went 1-15 in 2011, and they'll be all about making Luck as comfortable as possible from day one. That likely will include a featured role in the offense for Fleener. He makes a great target in deep leagues.Here is how we should tier the tight end position heading into the preseason:1. The elite -- You can't get into this class until you rack up 1,300 yards in a season. As such, there are only two guys in it.2. Every-week starters -- This tier is as deep as it has been in recent years, and includes mainstays such as Antonio Gates and Vernon Davis. With this tier as deep as it is, don't fret if you miss out on Gronkowski or Graham.3. Fringe starters -- Realistically, some of these guys will jump up into the second tier during the season, but they don't yet feature the consistency to be thought of as an every-week starter. This tier also includes some of the most intriguing guys at the position, such as Jared Cook and Jermaine Gresham.4. Unknowns -- There is plenty of potential in this tier, but you shouldn't go into the year with any of these guys as your top option at the position unless you're in a very deep league. You'll recognize our sleepers in this tier. Promoted Stories Comments More Fantasy

Tinkle's new collection of stand alone comics The Tinkle Tall Tales narrate the adventures of popular characters Butterfingers, Shikari Shambu and Defective Detectives
Children and the child in us love tall tales that stretch our imagination. After regaling us with stories that make us laugh, think and learn, Tinkle has come out with a collection of comics called The Tinkle Tall Tales. These narrate adventures of characters that many readers have grown up with. The first three characters to be honoured thus are Butterfingers, Shikari Shambu and Defective Detectives.
"Readers have long been demanding to know more about these characters and for longer stories on them. They never seem to get enough. Through each of these books, the reader can explore these well-loved characters better and discover more about their worlds," says Rajani Tindiath, editor of Tinkle in an e-mail interview.
Fans of these characters can now follow the adventure of these characters who became famous through the pages of the magazine. "Each 48-page comic has a bonus story and has been designed in a 8.50x10.75 format to give our artists ample space to play with art, panelling and story flow," adds Rajani.
Abhijeet Kini is the artist of Butterfingers and Defective Detectives. Shikari Shambu, the cowardly hunter-turned-conservationist was created by Luis Fernandes, former editor of Tinkle, and artist V.B. Halbe. At present, Savio Mascarenhas, Tinkle art director, is the artist of Shambu.
Realistic storytelling
Khyrunnisa A., creator of Butterfingers and author of the Butterfingers series, is all smiles about her favourite character's adventures getting space in a new format. "Whenever I get an idea, I usually write that down and then work on it to chart the adventures of Butterfingers and his friends," she says.
The two stories in the new collection have all the right ingredients to enthuse fans of Butterfingers – there is fun, humour and, of course, mishaps galore as Amar, Butterfingers' actual name, tries to be of help to his parents and teachers. Finally all is well that ends well.
Khyrunissa's keen observations make the stories so real and without being preachy or didactic, she blends in artfully bits of information and literature. Her experience as a popular quiz master is evident in the tales about Butterfingers.
While Butterfingers continues to regale his readers with the trails and tribulations of a typical Indian teenager and school students, Khyrunnisa has already put on her thinking cap to pull out many more such tales about this youngster with butter fingers!

annoying neighbor
Hello, I need advice from people.
I'm having trouble with my next door lady....one of her plant died and i have no clue why...she's been accusing me of killing that flower. apparently she smells something and she said that's the proof that I'm killing he plants.
Yesterday I had parked my car and she came knocking on my car window claiming that i had blocked her drive way and she couldn't get out. that wasn't true because he son had driven out with her car. she said that I was bothering and i should "get out of the neighborhood". her reason for that was she's been living in this part of town for 15 years while I just moved here like 3 years ago. I tried talking to her and her sons regarding this matters and they had said that's just how she is..
In this case what should i do..any advice is appreciated.
Absolutely nothing - but be civil. Smile politely, excuse yourself and get about your business. If her sons say "that's how she is" then they know she ain't changing.
How old is she? Set in her ways - as they say? Maybe, she's just alittle jealous that her sons are still at home and not off on their own! Whatever, unless she's paying you as a psychiatrist, it's not your problem to solve. Just always be civil but excuse yourself and get away from her.
thank you for that advice.i tried that already and she seems to find me whenever i'm outside. if i just go into my house she says that I'm avoiding her hence I killed her plants.just sick of telling her that i haven't done that and to tell me to "get out" i think that's just wrong.how do i bother her when i work everyday from 8-5pm? just want her to stop accusing me of doing things. she's in her 70s..
thank you
If this behavior has only recently started, then she may need to be evaluated for mental or physical problems. She sounds ill to me. If she's been that way for the 3 years and she ain't changing.
Have you tried buying her another plant like the one you "murdered"?
Sounds like she's either angry over things you can't help her with or she's got some mental problems, perhaps dementia. It sounds like a bad situation. mrsd 1957 has a point...maybe she's bitter that her sons are still living at home and so she is projecting her anger at you. Unfortunately all you can do is try to get away from her when she's ranting. Tough spot...
It sure does sound like early stages of dementia. In that case, nothing you say or do will make any difference, and it's best not to argue or debate with someone with that condition. Just remind yourself that she likely can't control it, and it's not your fault.
I was going to say this does sound like the beginnings of dementia. A friend of mine had a problem with a neighbor that escalated to the point where she (neighbor), was calling the police to say that my friend was trying to kill her, and was breaking into her home regularly; was coming out of the television, etc. I cannot tell you how much of a wreck my friend was over this. She was afraid to go outside as the neighbor would scream when she saw her. She was almost stalking my friend; watching out the window and waiting for her.
Eventually, my friend moved out of the house she shared with another roommate and moved home with her parents for a while until she felt the situation had calmed down a bit.
My suggestion to you would be to keep a log of all the confrontations you have had with her; when you've spoken to her sons, dates and times. That way if she calls the police on you or accuses you of something, you have some documentation of what has been happening.
If you have another run in with her, I think I might pay a visit to the police to let them know what is happening and what your concerns are. I would think it would be better to be the first one to let the police know there is a potential problem, rather than wait for her to accuse you of something. That is the problem my friend had. She let things go for months, preferring to just ignore the neighbor when she accosted her outside. When the neighbor began complaining to the cops, the first few visits the cops made my friend feel they were taking the side of the crazy neighbor. Eventually, the cops came to realize the lady was developing dementia, and were sympathetic to my friend. But having the cops show up at my friends door for all types of crazy complaints did take it's toll on my friend. Best to be safe and prepared.
Good luck
thank you for all the advices..
I had another discussion with her son and he had apologized for her behaviors.he will talk to her regarding this matter. hopefully that will ease up some of the tension between us. well....i was thinking about talking to cops about this but i'm not sure what they can do about it....right now all i can say is she think i killed her plant...not so sure what the cops are going to think..thanks again
DO NOT take this personally. I know that sounds crazy but my mother-in-law was bipolar and believed everyone was out to get her(even me). Nothing you can say or do will change anything if she has a mental illness or dementia.
I agree with the smile politely and go about your business. You can try "killing with kindness" but no guarantees there.
The police can not do a lot for her or for you for that matter.
Try to stay positive and polite and know she is the one with the problem not you. Believe me I know it isn't easy but at least you don't have to share Christmas with her.

LSI announces industry's first 28nm read channel for hard disk drive manufacturers
Press release [Wednesday 4 January 2012]
LSI Corporation announced that it is demonstrating to OEM customers the TrueStore RC5100 read channel for hard disk drives (HDD). The RC5100 is the industry's first 28nm read channel and features a new low-density parity check (LDPC) iterative decoding architecture, which enables HDD manufacturers to achieve increased areal density, higher yield and lower power consumption for HDDs.
A critical piece of technology for increasing the capacity of hard drives, a read channel translates the magnetically encoded information on the hard disk drive to electronic signals that can be understood by the host computer.
"The amount of digital data being generated worldwide continues to grow at an exponential rate, creating new storage challenges for client and enterprise customers alike," said Phil Brace, senior vice president and general manager, Storage Peripherals Division, LSI. "We pride ourselves on being first to market with new process technology that extends HDD capacity, accelerates performance and provides our HDD OEM customers with a time-to-market advantage."
The RC5100 is designed to support notebook, desktop and enterprise HDDs. It supports low power management features, which are critical to extending battery life in notebooks and to reducing energy costs in datacenters. The RC5100 also supports advanced new technologies such as shingled magnetic recording (SMR), a key technology for achieving next-generation areal density points.
"LSI has a consistent history of innovation," said Rick Cassidy, president of TSMC North America. "This 28nm collaboration with TSMC is a continuation of that proud lineage."
The RC5100 is the latest addition to the LSI TrueStore family of ICs for hard disk, solid-state disk and tape devices, including highly integrated storage system-on-a-chip (SoC), read channels, preamplifiers, serial PHYs and hard disk drive controller IP. Together with TrueStore preamplifiers and serial PHYs, the RC5100 creates a complete data path solution for HDD manufacturers.
The TrueStore RC5100 is expected to be available to OEM customers in the first calendar quarter of 2012.

relaunching my solo project, reggie and the full effect. ready to do a new release, titled " no country for old musicians ".
Reggie and the Full Effect/ james dewees
Project by Reggie and the Full Effect/ james dewees
First created | 1 backed
About this project
this is my official relaunch of " reggie and the full effect " a side project i started about 15 years ago. and i need your help to do it. with your help i hope to record, release, and tour on the first new reggie record in five years. your contributions will help me in doing so.
reggie has always been a super fun project from the beginning,for those of you who have followed it, you know that it hit a bumpy patch for a little while in my late 20's. however, all bumps have been smoothed and i think the time is now to bring reggie back to place it used to be.
i've spent many years touring with my chemical romance as their keyboard player and over those years i realized that i am without a doubt, a silly person, i write silly music, say silly things, i generally have a very absurd look on life. Reggie, is how i share that silliness with all of you. I've always been honest with my music. Whatever goes on in my life i write music about.
No country for old musicians, finds me living in north hollywood, in an apt building full of early 20's aspiring dancers, models,actors, designers, etc etc etc...and me being 36 hearing their conversations from my patio, started feeling disconnected and old, cause I am. ha ha.
i started to write music about how i cant relate to any of the things they talk about. i wrote and wrote and wrote until i sat and looked and said " Holy Moly! that's a new reggie record."
so now with songs in hand, and keyboard in tow, I plan to enter the studio and record the 6th Reggie and the Full Effect record, and then tour the living hell out of it. Because, at the end of the day I love being on stage and on the road, it's what I do best.
Risks and challenges
Reggie is a very fun project to work on. But that doesn't mean I don't have my fair share of problems. I have always dealt with the problems that arise in a very mature and responsible way. Sometimes when recording, things just are not working that day, whether it is equipment or my brain. Over my years of studio recording i have learned lots of great methods to inspire creativity in myself and others, also having fun never hurts the work enviroment. I will be very attentive to all the backers questions, requests, etc. Without you all this record won't be the same. Backers will be updated on progress continuously.
I have lots of surprises,extra rewards planned once certain goals are reached. (Unreleased songs,remixes,etc) So be sure to watch the campaign,ratfe.net,and twitter very closely.
I plan to have every backer item fulfilled by the October release date and the tour for the record. The most important thing is getting the record done and sent off to be packaged. i'm so excited to go in the studio and record. i can't wait for you all to hear it. I'm positive it will bring smiles to your faces.
unfortunately since people can back out of their pledges the immediate delivery actually means immediately after the campaign is successful. I promise you that when the campaign succeeds my first task will be to send those out asap. sorry for any confusion.

What Do I Do Now? Handling Challenging Situations with Mentally Ill and Homeless Library Users, Part 1
- Link: What Do I Do Now? Handling Challenging Situations with Mentally Ill and Homeless Library Users, Part 1
- Topic: Programming & Services - Customer Service
- Level: Elective
- Sponsor: Infopeople
- Format: archived webinar
- Contact Hours: 1
Course Objectives:
Is your library staff overwhelmed by users behaving badly? Does your code of conduct sufficiently address users' inappropriate behaviors? Are staff resentful of having to act as de facto social workers?
To a great extent, libraries' users behave within the framework of acceptable social norms. But a subset of users in all libraries – large, small, urban, rural, suburban, special and academic – behave outside these norms, placing stress on the staff and other users. Whether the behaviors are exhibited by those who are homeless, mentally ill or just plain rude, providing your staff with limit-setting and self-care skills can turn challenging situations into empowering ones. San Francisco Public Library has turned to other City agencies to assist staff in gaining skills and strategies for responding to these situations.
At the end of this one-hour webinar, participants will:
Be able to identify at least 3 reasons why it is important to set limits with users. Be able to share with co-workers at least 3 effective strategies on how to set limits with users. Be able to articulate the importance of the concept of self-care and be familiar with self-care strategies following a difficult interaction with a user.
This webinar will be of interest to library front-line staff, primarily in public libraries but useful no matter the setting.
