Adorable save the date
We absolutely love our nautical save the dates from Magnet Street. We are getting married on a boat next year and these are perfect! The actual product we ordered looks even better than the sample. And very fast shipping. We couldn't be happier!
Nautical Save the Dates
My save the dates are adorable, and came printed just as I designed them. I would have liked them to be a tiny bit bigger, but that's my only complaint. On the upside, you can send them with regular postage stamps. I wasn't sure about that so I left a message with MagnetStreet and someone called me back personally the next day. Excellent customer service! They also came in a really cute box, with samples of their wedding invitation stock and fonts, with a coupon for 25% off wedding invitations. Definitely a nice touch! Great company, made in the USA!
Super Cute
I absolutely love my save the date post cards. They are high quality and arrived quickly. The colors are exactly the ones I chose.

- Feel free to suggest poll ideas if you're feeling creative. I'd strongly suggest reading the past polls first.
- This whole thing is wildly inaccurate. Rounding errors, ballot stuffers, dynamic IPs, firewalls. If you're using these numbers to do anything important, you're insane.

Funny you should mention old-fogey bosses. I find, as a attorney, that a vast number of older lawyers* still have their secretaries print out their email so they can read it, and then they dictate a response. It's both amusing and creepy at the same time.
*"older" can mean anywhere from 50s to 90s in this context. One of the interesting things about the legal profession is that, quite often, if you enjoy the work, you're free to do it right up until the day you die. I have to admit, that was one of the draws for me. I know I'll slow down and diminish the workload when I get up there in age, but there's nothing worse than feeling useless and unneeded.

I, for one, tell people that my large amount of PC gaming (according to my parent's) on our dial-up internet connection is the primary reason that I can type both "fast" (80-100 wpm sustained depending on the application) and free of errors.
When all you have is a dial-up connection and the family computer, you can't communicate via any other method than typing really fast. Having the ability to quickly and accurately tell my friend he's battlefield information was a priceless skill.

BURLEY,Idaho -- Fire officials believe it was spontaneous combustion that made a gun room explode at the home of an Idaho state lawmaker last weekend.
The blast sent Representative Fred Wood's wife to a burn center in Salt Lake City on Saturday night.
Burley Fire Chief Keith Martin believes a gun room below Fred and Amy Wood's house exploded after rags with gun cleaning chemicals on them sat in a garbage bin and slowly produced enough heat to ignite on fire.
He cleaned his guns, and we are thinking maybe the cleaning solvent and the rags that he used sat there over the week and slowly generated enough heat, where it finally spontaneously combusted, said Chief Martin.
Martin said Wood was hunting just a week prior to the explosion.
KTVB spoke with Representative Wood by phone from Salt Lake City on Monday
Wood said he heard a noise before the explosion, and went downstairs to the gun room to investigate.
Fire officials had previously said Wood could feel pressure against the door and decided not to open it, which was good--because moments later it exploded.
Amy Wood was upstairs above where the room is, out near the home's back patio. The blast didn t injure Fred Wood, but Amy was hit.
The resulting flames are what engulfed his wife, and she was standing on the back patio, luckily not on that piece of concrete that actually moved, otherwise she could have been seriously injured, said Martin.
Martin added, She had some possible second degree burns on her arms, her face, and when he went out back after the explosion, her hair was on fire, said Chief Martin.
Martin said Wood called for help right away.
It was a bizarre incident according to Representative Wood, who says he's been living in that home for 30 years.
He said the room served as a secure spot for many family valuables, and not just guns. Wood told KTVB he had no explanation for the blast.
I don't know the circumstances of which this accident occurred. I only know that we always have to think safety first, said Karl Miller with Boise Gun Company.
Miller did not want to speculate on what could have caused the blast at the home of the Woods, but said any kind of event like this can serve as a reminder that all gun users should remember their simple safety tips.
You are never going to want to use any kind of flammable materials around any kind of heat source, explained Miller.
He said nowadays, most cleaning materials dry relatively fast.
And make sure that there is plenty of air there is no enclosed area, he said.
Representative Wood said his biggest message for now, was to thank all the citizens of Idaho for their support for his family through this tough time. He assured his wife is doing well, but was not sure how long her recovery would take.
Fire Chief Martin also said the investigation from the State Fire Marshall could take a month or two before its complete.

Getting a Second Opinion
Heart rhythm disorders are serious conditions. You will want to know what treatment options you have available, what options are best for you, and the hospital that offers the best possible outcome.
At the Swedish Heart and Vascular Institute, we're happy to give second opinions to patients who are considering treatment for atrial fibrillation or other heart rhythm disorders at another hospital. And we support our own patients in seeking another opinion if that will give them additional peace of mind.
You may want a second opinion if:
- you have a complicated or unusual heart condition
- your medications are no longer working and you now need to consider a procedure
- you already had a procedure(s) that did not correct your condition
- your cardiologist suggests that nothing more can or should be done and you want to learn more about minimally invasive surgery
- you want confirmation of your test results and more information about your heart condition.
While you might feel a bit hesitant to get a second opinion because you don't want to offend your doctor, remember that the vast majority of physicians actually welcome second opinions. A second opinion can validate your doctor's own thinking and provide additional information to improve your proposed treatment plan.
Getting a second opinion
Here at Swedish we see many patients seeking a second opinion for the treatment of their atrial fibrillation. If you'd like a second opinion from us, call us at 206-861-8550 for an appointment. We'll do our best to assure a prompt appointment (usually within a few days) with one of our three electrophysiologists.
What to ask
When getting a second opinion, consider asking these questions:
- Have you reviewed all the reports, tests, and procedures related to my case?
- Was all of the data sufficient to make a firm diagnosis?
- Would another test or procedure give more complete information?
- If you agree with the initial diagnosis, can you recommend any revisions to the proposed treatment plan?
- Can you reassure me that we have explored all options?
Who to call
If you'd like a second opinion from Swedish, call 206-861-8550. We'll help you determine which physician you should see and help set up an appointment. We can also arrange for medical records, images and lab reports to be sent to the right place.

Groovy on Android (DiscoBot project)
Currently, Groovy is not able to run properly on Google's Android mobile platform out of the box. A couple years ago, a first GSoC project (nicknamed DiscoBot), started porting Groovy to Android, using Groovy 1.7, but performance wasn't there (20s to startup a simple Hello World). The goal of this GSoC project is to work with the Groovy core team and the past contributors of the DiscoBot project, towards the goal of making any Groovy program to run on the Android platform well, so that apps for such mobile phone can be written fully in Groovy.
It will be interesting to investigate what modifications can be brought to Groovy to make it support Android in a more straightforward manner, how we can leverage the recently introduced static compilation capabilities, and also see how Groovy builders and other features can help further streamline the development of Android applications using Groovy.
Project: Groovy
Possible mentors: Jochen Theodorou or Guillaume Laforge, or one of the contributors of DiscoBot
An Antlr v4 grammar for Groovy
As of today, Groovy 2 still uses Antlr v2 for its grammar. The original grammar was based off of the Java grammar itself. But we would like to create a dedicated grammar for Groovy with the latest version of Antlr, ie. with version 4. Antlr v4 has evolved nicely and makes it easier to evolve grammars, without the painful work of rule disambiguation. So the idea is to develop a clean room implementation of the Groovy grammar for the upcoming versions of Groovy, that would be able to also cover new syntax elements, like the support of Java 8 lambda syntax, or the type annotation JSR, and we'd also take the opportunity to tackle things that we haven't covered so far, like JavaDoc comments in the resulting AST.
Project: Groovy
Possible mentor: Jochen Theodorou
Lazy data structures and comprehensions
The idea would be to have Groovy support generators, lazy evaluations, ... See for example: http://blog.bloidonia.com/post/22117894718/groovy-stream-a-lazy-generator-class-for-groovy
It is also important to take a look at what APIs are being written in JDK 8 because most of the APIs written for the new lambdas are specifically lazy.
Project: Groovy
Possible mentor: Paul King
Executable Documentation
As we are overhauling our documentation, the Groovy project is interested into having documentation that is fully tested and always up-to-date with our codebase. With those objectives in mind, a little tool has been created to provide a solution for having "executable documentation": Dokspek (https://github.com/glaforge/dokspek). This tool takes wiki pages in entry, extracts Groovy code snippets from the content, to run those snippets as JUnit tests, and then resulting in HTML documentation and tests that are passing as part of our test harness.
We'd like to further improve this tool and put it in place in the Groovy codebase. Additional refinements can be brought, like having nice table of content, indexing of concepts, PDF and HTML documentation generation, etc.
Project: Groovy / DokSpek
Possible mentor: Guillaume Laforge

"It's a Small World" is the pilot episode from the iconic American television series Leave It to Beaver (1957–1963). The pilot was first televised April 23, 1957 on Studio '57 without a laugh track nor the series' well known theme song, The Toy Parade. It never aired as an episode within the series. It was televised again in October 2007 as part of TV Land's 50th anniversary celebration of Leave It to Beaver. It was released to DVD, 2005. The series proper made its CBS debut several months later on October 4, 1957 with the episode, "Beaver Gets 'Spelled".
Casey Adams (aka Max Showalter) and Barbara Billingsley appear in the pilot as archetypal suburban couple, Ward and June Cleaver with Paul Sullivan and Jerry Mathers as their sons Wally Cleaver and Theodore "Beaver" Cleaver respectively. Hugh Beaumont would appear in the series proper as Ward Cleaver (rather than Adams) while the role of Wally went to Tony Dow after Sullivan experienced a growth spurt on the eve of series' production. Diane Brewster appears as Miss Simms, a secretary, with Richard Deacon as Mr. Baxter, Miss Simms' boss. Brewster and Deacon would find roles in the series proper as Miss Canfield, Beaver's second grade teacher, and Fred Rutherford, Ward's co-worker. Joseph Kearns appears as milk company executive, Fred Crowley, and would later appear as Mr. Wilson in the sitcom, Dennis the Menace. Harry Shearer plays Frankie Bennett, a mischievous boy who leads Wally and Beaver astray while Tommy Randall plays Frankie's pal. Other cast members include Russ Thorson as Man with Milk Bottles, Leonard Bremen as Milk Bar Operator, Tim Graham as Doc, and Virginia Carroll as Nurse. Joe Connelly and Bob Mosher wrote the teleplay with Jerry Hopper directing the episode. Richard Lewis produced the episode. The pilot was a single camera, black-and-white, full-screen, half-hour episode filmed at Republic Studios and the Universal backlot. With some modifications, the façade of the Cleaver house in the pilot became that of the Cleaver house in the first two seasons of the series. Some decorative elements (like the curtains in the boys' bedroom) would be retained for the series proper.
Wally and Beaver want a new bicycle. Frankie Bennett, a mischievous boy, tells them new bikes can be had a local dairy in exchange for 1,000 bottle caps from the company's products. The boys collect the bottle caps, but, in attempting to redeem them, learn they've been duped. Ward takes pity on the boys and buys them a bicycle.

Plasma TV has 3 thin black lines
by vigothecruel - 12/28/10 6:18 PM
I have a 2YO Samsung plasma, model S50HW-YB03. On the bottom section of my tv, there are three black lines running across the screen. These are three rows of pixels that are just not showing at all. This came on suddenly, and I don't know if it is an issue with the Y board, the ribbon cable, the plasma screen, or something else.
Any information on this kind of issue is appreciated. Thanks!

till reckon Chelsea will go for Khedira as back up for Matic. I think it will turn out to be quite a Mourihno-y window: We'll see the squad players and youth in action pre-season, say things like well, we need not buy anybody and then the club will bid £60m for Pogba and send everybody on loan.
would love to be a fly on the wall at the meeting between Milner and Rodgers. I don't know if flies can count, but if they can then I would be counting the number of times Rodgers used the word outstanding in his attempts to get Milner to sign.
ell, it wouldn't be a summer without Arsenal fans fretting over losing a key player, and United throwing their weight around and muscling in on transfer deals which are (apparently) near to completion. If we can't be entertained by the football on the pitch, let's enjoy the silly off-pitch soap opera of the transfer season. Hurrah!
Manchester United have failed with a €150million bid for Raphael Varane and Gareth Bale but want Atletico Madrid's Joao Miranda, claim reports.
Jose Mourinho has dismissed claims Diego Costa is unhappy at Chelsea, insisting he is 'responsible for the good atmosphere' at Stamford Bridge.
Outgoing FIFA president Sepp Blatter is being investigated by US authorities probing the corruption scandal, according to reports.
One Mailer says Benteke = Carroll, Bellamy = Milner and Clyne = Downing. Plus we have U21 Euro impatience, farewell Rio, Rafa Benitez, Milner, FIFA and title play-offs...
One Liverpool Mailer wants a manager who isn't starstruck by the job. Plus why Milner has now become overrated, play-offs for the title, Ronaldinho and democracy..

RICHLANDS — The game plan was simple for Richlands on Thursday night: Contain 20 point-per-game scorer Jamal Parker of Northside.
And while the Wildcats did a good job on Parker by holding him to 13 points on 6 of 16 shooting, the Monarchs' had five other players score at least 7 points in a 63-46 win over host Richlands in the semifinals of the East Central 2-A Conference tournament.
In other words, Northside (21-3) was balanced, something coach Tony Marshburn certainly doesn't mind seeing from the second-seeded Monarchs.
"We go deep on the bench, and anytime you have balance, it means they have more than one guy to stop," Marshburn said. "We went nine deep in the first half tonight and played 13. Each night it seems like a different guy on the bench steps up for us, and hopefully (tonight) it will be the same thing."
Northside will take on top-seeded Clinton (19-6) tonight at 8 p.m. in the tournament final. Both teams shared the ECC regular-season crown, meaning the winner will be the league's top seed for the NCHSAA 2-A playoffs.
The Monarchs have not played in the ECC tournament final since 2010 and have not won the event since 2008.
"I'm excited for the players because that was one of the goals, to play for the tournament championship," Marshburn said. "I feel like the guys have worked hard this year to get there. Clinton and us tied for the regular-season championship and so I guess it's only fitting we play."
Meanwhile, sixth-seeded Richlands ended 11-14 overall. The Wildcats, who upset No. 3 Croatan 79-77 in overtime Tuesday, needed to win the ECC tournament to make the state playoffs.
"We had a great year and great effort, especially in the last eight or 10 games," Richlands first-year coach Glenn Kellum said. "They played their butts off. But all credit goes to Northside. They are a great team with a great coach."
And the Monarchs are a team with not just one player capable of playing well.
Parker managed just three first-half points — a 3-pointer at the buzzer to give the Monarchs a 29-21 lead at the break. The Wildcats wanted to limit his touches and force him to take tough shots.
However, junior Davion Ayabarreno scored 9 of his 13 points in the first half for Northside, including a layup with 3:58 left in the second quarter that gave the Monarchs the lead for good at 18-17.
That layup from Ayabarreno, who also grabbed 10 rebounds, was the start of a 6-0 Northside run that put the Monarchs up 22-17.
"Davion is really that X-factor because a lot of teams look at Jamal, Josh (Cabrera) and the Curry brothers (Kris and Korey)," Marshburn said. "Davion is a quiet-type of stats kid. You probably don't notice much from him and then you look at the stat sheet and he's always up there in points and in rebounds."
Korey Curry added 10 points and 10 rebounds, David Hilton had 9 points, Kris Curry had 8 and Cabrera added 7 points and 7 rebounds for the Monarchs.
"They are just very consistent in scoring," Kellum said. "We started having to gamble some and started trapping to try to get some steals and that led to them getting easier baskets."
Marshburn said the play in particular from Hilton, a senior, was a difference. Hilton came off the bench and managed to drive past Richlands' zone defense on a few occasions.
"David came in and stepped up for us," Marshburn said. "He came in and made some things happen."
Ka'Darius McQueen scored 13 points and Antwaun Thompson added 12 points and 10 rebounds for the Wildcats. McQueen, a senior who scored a layup at the buzzer to beat Croatan, was hampered by early foul trouble.
"He never really got on his game," Kellum said. "He's a big part of our offense."
And rebounding is a big part of Northside's game. The Monarchs held a 44-30 advantage on the boards.
"We got killed on the boards. They are so tough on the boards," Kellum said. "I think it was No. 22 (Ayabarreno) and No. 24 (Korey Curry) who had like 7 points apiece in the first half off offensive rebounds."
Richlands 13 8 15 10 — 46
Northside 14 15 20 14 — 63

When I was in Beirut, I stayed at a hotel with amazing breakfasts. Although I'm not one that likes to inflict myself on the public in the early hours of the day (when I'm not exactly at my best), the breakfasts with their freshly baked Arabic bread and za'atar-filled croissants helped me make the transition from my blissful slumber, and through that difficult period where I'm going to have to realize that at some point I'm going to have to start interacting with others.
Yet just as fast as I got accustomed to those lovely morning treats, I moved to another hotel where those lovely breakfasts were pulled out from under me. The place was fine, but let's just say the breakfast offerings weren't quite as enticing. (As much as I'd love to tote around a coffee machine or other apparatus when I travel, my dream is to show up at a hotel and find an in-room espresso machine ready and waiting.)

GroovySWT is a wrapper around SWT, the eclipse Standard Widget Toolkit. It allows you to easily write Eclipse SWT applications by using Groovy's builder mechanism.
Here is some SWT code using native Groovy:
When you run this (see below for setup details), the result looks like:
Here is the same example using SwtBuilder - note that this example does more because it actually prints some text 'Hello' to standard output when you press the button:
For a short example of using the JFace builder for creating a standard application see the TextEditor sample.
You can find about 70 examples in the example directory in subversion or you can download them here.
For a comparison of the groovy and java code see here or see the latest code in subversion.
Platform dependency.
Groovy-swt is not platform dependent, but SWT is. So you need to make sure that you are running a SWT matching the platform you are running the application on. You can download the appropriate SWT version at eclipse (select the eclipse version, find the heading "SWT Binary and Source", and download the SWT for your platform)
See the changelog for changes.
Updated to eclipse 3.5 (see the changelog for all the other changes)
- groovy-swt-0.5 with all eclipse libraries and the windows version of SWT: groovy-swt-0.5-windows-all.jar
- groovy-swt-0.5 with all eclipse libraries but no SWT: groovy-swt-0.5-without-swt.jar
- groovy-swt-0.5 examples: groovy-swt-0.5-examples.zip
Please note the 0.5 was completely re-written to use FactoryBuilderSupport (to be able to be included in griffon), so there may be a few inconsistencies with version 0.3, but if you find any then please let me know. You can see the changelog for a list of all the changes.
Another major new feature in version 0.5 is the binding framework (build on top of the jface databinding and following the same style as the swing builder). You can find a little documentation with examples here.
The sources (and README.txt telling you how to set up the libraries and dll's) can be found in subversion:
The jar file compiled against Eclipse SDK 3.3 jars can be found attached:
To run groov-swt application you also need some of the eclipse libraries (including SWT), so download groovy-swt-0.3-including-Eclipse-libs.ZIP and unzip all the jar files into the lib directory of your groovy installation. This zip file includes the windows version of SWT, so if you are on another platform you need to download the appropriate version of SWT at eclipse and include that instead.

I am making another implementaion of GroovySwt. It has some features mentioned below.
- Instead of creating Factory classes source codes manually , I maked factory
creating program and the program makes all factory's source code .
- Construction arguments are passed as last parameter. For example ,
button(text:"hello world" , background:[100 , 100, 100] , SWT.PUSH)
this code is same as below.
Button btn = new Button(parent , SWT.PUSH) ;
btn.setText("hello world") ;
btn.setBackground(new Color(btn.getDisplay() , 100 , 100 , 100)) ;
( note: The Color resource is managed automatically . )
If Construction arguments' length is longer than 1 , just wrap those in list.
tabItem(text:"hello world" , [SWT.NONE , 1])
- You can define interfaces(includes event handlers) inline , or use your
custom implementation classes.
button( SWT.PUSH ) {
widgetSelected:{ println "hello world" /* define inline */ }
// custom implementation of SelectionListener
CustomSelectionListener listener = new CustomSelectionListener() ;
button( SWT.PUSH ) {
selectionListener(listener) // use custom class
- You can assign your custom tag name to existing class. For example ,
you can use 'BUTTON' to use org.eclipse.swt.widgets.Button . This mapping
is configured by configuration file at runtime .
(note : The default mapping (class name) is always usable.)
My Implementation is not perfect currently , but it works fine.
I want to contribute my works , is It possible ?
- Instead of creating Factory classes source codes manually , I maked factory
Yes, if you have some useful code to contribute, that would be great.
I get SWT.zip, but i don't know how to install . I've read some webs, but i haven't found nothing about this.
Could someone help me about this? Im working on Windows XP. I've installed Groovy and Eclipse.
Download the attachment called groovy-swt-0.3-including-Eclipse-libs.ZIP and unzip everything into you groovy/lib directory and remove the old groovyswt.jar from that directory.
The link for groovy-swt-0.3-including-Eclipse-libs.ZIP is broken. Can someone fix it?
The link for groovy-swt-0.3-including-Eclipse-libs.ZIP should now be working again.
I found that this jar could not work on 64-bit JVM. When I run the demos, it throws exception like this:Exception in thread "main" java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: Cannot load 32-bit SWT libraries on 64-bit JVM.
Any solution?
oh boy had a little fun getting this all to work
not sure how recently the project has been updated - but i appear at last to have a working build that generates for eclipse juno .
steps: sourced the code tree from the svn directory - took a while to figure out how to do that - you have to register an id with xircles for codehaus and then you can get into the svn pages of the groovy link above.
I stored igt all in a zip - then did an import from zip into my exclipse juno v4 workspace. Prject loads but lights up like a christmas tree with complie errors - fear not this is what you have to do (entire afternoon explore here )
- you have to get the juno SWT jar first.. This site helps you do that swt download link pages for swt
- same trick - save the zip, import into your workspace. the project so loaded has a working swt.jar file you can use elsewhere in your projects.
- if you want jface - more work this is really nasty from eclipse - you have a download a copy of eclipse 4.2 for RCP- which has all the extra jar files in its plugin directory. heres the eclipse download link i used today juno rcp enabled build (dec 2012). save this and unzip in a temp directory. you need a bunch of jars from here.
- go back to your first groovy swt project you loaded into the workspace - what i did was add a 'lib' directory to the file tree and then stuffed a bunch of jars in there and include them in your build path. two apache logging files - had to go to apache to get those and copy them into the lib directory - the rest are from the RCP build plugin directory above
in addition i had to use jindjar .com to locate copies of miglayout, and the icu4j jar, and junit-4.5
5 once you have that lot include them all in the build path by adding all the jars in your lib directory.
you still get some errors and wanrings i had to edit some of the groovy files - as some of the classes in src/samples had private classes declared - my complier im using grails 2.1.1 inside GGTS with java 6 didnt like that - so i commented out any private classififers and ran a project /clean. I think that got it all to compile - howeever when i ran another project i got errors about class versions.
last thing to do is use latest java vm 7 and set sdk runtime in your project and the workbench to be the same - then it all seemed to start working.
once its all compiled up with no errors - you can build another project in groovy or grails and reference your working build project (havnt figured out how to export working groovy_swt into standalone jar yet. but thats good enough for now.
hopefully thats enough to get any one else started - but i think a refresh on the groovy modules svn build is probably required - those private classes really didnt work for me.
Hope that helps anyone who comes after me - and save you a days toil and heartache. Might have a moan to eclipse about getting the RCP jars in a more readily installable package - theres no update site i can see just to get these into a standard juno build - my GGTS didnt include them for sure
i've downloaded and made a couple of improvements i think that permit you to incrementally build parts and join them together at the end - see above
in doing so i've created a draft tutorial for swt and jface builder that shows how they can be used
i've posted a copy here in case any one would else would benefit from it whilst i build it out a little more its currently as draft 0.1

gilt.com. It's from a Thom Filicia collection and it's made out of recycled straws, or flip flops, or something, I can't remember what to save my life!
Here is the configuration if I add another piece, though I think I'd put the one with the armrest on the right, longer side and leave the single piece where it is:
Here's another view of all the space I have for another piece. I thought it would be too much, but I think there is planty of room. Especially when you think that the rockers will NOT be there. By the way, as usual, this is only half-way put together - the tags are still on the cushions, the Jonathan Adler lamp needs a shade, etc. I'm just so happy to have my porch spruced up and clean - it was coated in construction dust and pollen and I thought it would never be back.

Lindsay Lohan recently enjoyed a steamy night of passion with controversial fashion photographer Terry Richardson and she's eager for a relationship, but the 46-year-old is "just not interested" RadarOnline.com is exclusively reporting.
The troubled 25-year-old actress has had a major crush on Richardson for ages, according to a source, but only managed to hook up with him earlier this year after posing for a steamy photo shoot at the famed Chateau Marmont in Los Angeles.
"Lindsay and Terry have been friends for years," the source tells RadarOnline.com. "And she's always had a thing for him. Lindsay thinks he's really cool and hip and could be great for her career.
PHOTOS: Stars Who Look Like Other Stars
"They had a major night of passion after they worked on this photo shoot together and now she's going all out to get her claws into him. But Terry is just not interested in pursuing a relationship with Lindsay and totally regrets hooking up with her.
"Lindsay has been texting and phoning him nonstop and he's actually kind of freaked out by how strong she's been coming on to him; it's all pretty unseemly. As Terry said, there's nothing more unattractive than a desperate woman. It's a difficult situation though as they move in the same circles and have a lot of mutual friends. He's trying to work out a way to let her down gently without blowing their friendship."

Richardson, like Lohan, is no stranger to scandal. He has been plagued with allegations of sexual harassment towards his young models over the past decade. Danish model and filmmaker Rie Rasmussen and Jamie Peck, are among those that have gone public with their complaints.
"He takes girls who are young, manipulates them to take their clothes off and takes pictures of them they will be ashamed of," Rasmussen told the New York Post.

So, you need Social Media for your business growth…and
- You want to embrace it, but aren't sure where to start?
- Are overwhelmed with all the sites, strategies and 'experts' in this arena?
- Are confused about the vocabulary, softwares and techniques you see & hear?
- Wonder why some are getting great results and you just seem to be spinning your wheels?
- You're tired of investing hundreds (maybe thousands) of dollars on courses and summits that aren't helping?
- Are so busy working on your own business you don't have time to figure this out?
This is where I come in.
I am NOT a social media expert. Far from it.
The truth is, I'm a business woman. An author. A speaker. A mom. A wife.
I was resistant to social media at first. After all, juggling multiple businesses, my kids, my marriage and trying to have a life as well – I sure didn't need ONE more thing! (I'm sure you've felt like that too!)
But my results using social media have been nothing short of astounding. I don't mean my 'follow numbers.'
As a direct result of social media:
- I was approached by a publisher and offered a book deal (no, it's not about social media).
- I have been booked on numerous radio shows.
- Speaking requests have increased so that I turn down more offers than I accept.
- My bottom line has increased by multiple six figures JUST because of social media contacts & credibility.
- My list and lead generation continues to grow.
- Producers from reality shows and news shows call me without me contacting them.
- PLUS I have a great finger on the pulse of my friends, followers, audience and world-at-large so I can be responsive (not reactive!)
So back to the original issue…
You want to use social media, but don't know how to make it work and don't have the time to immerse yourself into hours and hours of learning!
I hear you! And that's why I'm introducing (insert drum roll here)
The truth is – you don't want to be an expert. You just want to use it expertly for rapid results.
You want to NOT be invisible online and you want to know how to make that happen without LIVING online.
So, I'm going to hold your hand through this process…
Every Week I'll send you:
- An immediately actionable, implementable social media strategy or tactic that is working
- We will focus on a different area weekly: Numbers, Content, Monetization & Advanced Tactics
- Email assignments that you can put into practice RIGHT NOW.
- This might be a brief audio, a short video, screenshots or even written instructions

$10 per month. No upsell. No catch. No long-term contract.
- Automated billing every 30 days
- Weekly delivery without you having to remember to 'go log in'
- Starts immediately, even if you enroll at 2 a.m.
- Cancel anytime
- Visa/MC/Disc/AmEx
But I don't have time, Carrie…
I'll be brutally honest. I personally don't have time for hours and hours of more coaching and teaching either! My current clients keep me busy & lovin it! But this will be super simple to digest and simple to implement. If you have a question or concern or need some clarification – you can pop over to the Facebook Fan Page and ask there and I'm happy to answer!! (details will be in your weekly emails)
This will NOT be something you have to file away and 'find time for' later. I can promise you that. Set aside about 25 minutes each week to open the email, read it (or listen) and implement. Then move on with your amazing life!
"Carrie's strategies are second to none! She doesn't give you ideas, she gives you actions. These tactics are easy to implement & extremely effective. Thanks to her, I've added 4 new avenues to building my prospect list…each more effective than the next!" – John Morgan, Brand Against the Machine
Just $10 — that's it…Really!
- What if you get one new lead, what is that worth?
- What if met someone influential in your industry that led to greater credibility? Can you put a price on that?
- What if you sell one of your ______ because of Facebook, Twitter, YouTube or ______?
We can agree that is likely to happen with ANY of the weekly lessons and you'll get 4 (sometimes 5) per month!! Is that worth just $10?
Let's streamline and simplify. Let's focus on results and not busy-work for you!
I look forward to helping you Simplify! Register today!
P.S. Already great at social media? Perfect! You probably don't need this! However, the last week of every month will focus on advanced stealth strategies and I'm even going to bring in some of my 'expert' friends for some mapping and off the radar tactics. You and I will BOTH learn!
P.S.S. Still not sure? Try it for a month. It's $10 — I promise not to make sad faces at you or blacklist you in social media if you cancel
