If you've got 10 minutes – and an interest in the legal business – I highly recommend that you read "Bursting the Pedigree Bubble" by William Henderson, a professor at Indiana University Law School. It's the smartest, most comprehensive piece I've read about the seismic shifts that are occurring in the legal industry.
Henderson explains that the AmLaw 100 firms and their Harvard-trained attorneys are simply not worth the exorbitant prices they currently charge. The sluggish economy is now causing corporations to question the value that these firms offer – and this presents opportunities for everybody else. It also means that the AmLaw 100 will be forced to rethink the way that they do business.
According to Henderson, the perceived value of Ivy-League pedigrees will diminish – and success will go to those attorneys and firms that show hard evidence of their ability to deliver better value.
Henderson argues (very convincingly) that there is surprisingly little reason to believe that an Ivy League-trained attorney will be any better at practicing law than someone who came out of a second-tier school like Hofstra. In fact, it is even possible that a Hofstra graduate would make for a better attorney. This is terrible news for the pricey firms whose reputations are largely built on the Ivy-League pedigrees of their attorneys. [If you doubt this, please read the piece. Henderson cites some compelling studies.]
Demonstrating Value
So, how do you win clients in this new business landscape? It's all about demonstrating value. It's no longer enough to simply tell people that you're a superstar. You need to demonstrate it. And this means writing compelling "thought leadership" content in which you give away your best ideas.

Tablet. Hotels for Global Nomads
Travel Better.
6 Frith Street, Soho Square, London, England, UK
Neighborhood: Soho
Check availability as rates may vary for dates. Best rate guaranteed.
Tucked away off Soho Square lies a discreet little townhouse hotel called Hazlitt's. Named for William Hazlitt, the essayist and Napoleon biographer who lived and died here in the early 19th century, the hotel has held on to its literary theme, and is today a favorite among writers and publishers, as well as artistic types, theatre patrons and West End antique hunters.
It's not quite on the same luxe level as some of the new high-end boutiques, but neither are its rates — you're not getting (but also not paying for) a spa, a big-name chef, plasma-screen TVs, or any of the rest. It may sound a bit grown-up to devotees of the modern nightclub hotel, but for those of us who fancy a late-night browse through the sitting room's literary collection (many signed copies left behind by visiting authors) rather than another cocktail in a hip hotel bar, this is the place.
And it's got quiet charms all its own—this place is packed with character, bursting with antiques and period furnishings to match the hotel's Georgian pedigree, and each of the twenty-three rooms is named after a famous literary guest, from Wordsworth to Jonathan Swift. The floor plans of the listed townhouses hew to the original, meaning still no lifts, and smallish rooms, cozy and expertly decorated. Old-fashioned they may be, but meticulously maintained, with gleaming brass fittings in the Victorian bathrooms (modern plumbing, too) and mahogany furnishings of museum quality.
There's not much at all in the way of room service, and no restaurant, though Soho's got quite a few decent midmarket options. And with the money you're saving on the room rate, you can afford to head west, and throw some serious cash around Mayfair.
Please note: Certain Club Double rooms will undergo renovations from May 18 through June 22, 2015. Guests may experience minor noise during this period; every effort will be made to keep disruption to a minimum.
How to get there:
Hazlitt's hotel is a 5-minute walk from the Tottenham Court Road tube station. If you're arriving from Heathrow Airport, the most convenient transfer option to central London is the Heathrow Express train, which leaves Heathrow Airport every 15 minutes and takes 15 minutes to arrive at Paddington Station. One-way fares are available from £18, and round-trip fares from £32. By black cab, Hazlitt's is approximately a 45-minute ride from Heathrow Airport (depending on traffic), and can cost upwards of £50.

- Rating: Fair
What I liked:
Love the location, the rooms are very charming and the hotel has a great sense of style and is a nice antidote to the faceless bland hotels that sometimes curse your trip to London. Also stayed here twice in 2005 and 06 and loved it.
What the hotel could do better:
The service is very haphazard, and the women who work the front desk are as rude as they were 3 years ago! Good to see somethings never change. However, the night staff were very helpful and pleasant. However the hotel has recently been renovated and the old opening windows have now been fixed shut forever, leaving you in an overheated hotel on a balmy May evening. Who thought this was a good idea? Still love the Rookery and the Gore, though, their sister hotels in South Ken and Clerkenwell.

A very to-the-point book about bodies and going potty. We appreciated the straightforward approach which doesn't suggest that bodies are bad, embarrassing, not to be talked about, etc. Highly recommended to help toddlers learn what they need to know.
Sat and Sat...
My son like the and sat and sat and sat page, I think it helped him to realize he needs to sit on the potty longer

The Multistate Tax Commission plans to announce that they are accelerating their development of a transfer pricing audit program by soliciting the assistance of Dan Bucks, the former MTC Executive Director and Montana Director of Revenue. New Jersey recently asked the MTC to consider hiring transfer pricing auditors to assist in its Joint Audit Program and to help states with complex transfer pricing audits. The MTC subsequently reached out to states to gauge interest and possible funding. Nine states have already expressed interest in funding the cost of obtaining the additional expertise. Interestingly, the list of interested states includes both separate return states and combined reporting states. Bucks has been tasked with leading a "working group" to explore the MTC's options for transfer pricing audits. The MTC currently has 21 open income tax audits and closed only two audits through the first half of the 2014 fiscal year, which ends June 30, 2014. Adding another layer of complexity from transfer pricing audits likely will not improve the MTC's audit timeliness without adding significant additional resources. Sutherland's SALT Team will monitor the MTC's transfer pricing efforts.

I turn this watch on right as I'm leaving my house and it is ready to roll within seconds. Other GPS watches take minutes to connect with satellites. The battery life seems good and the heartrate monitor is very accurate so long as I get it wet before putting it on.
Tons of running and felt the need to keep up with technology. I've done a ton of research on this product. I know it is AWESOME. Many of my running friends have this same watch. Hands down one of the best out there.Can't wait to receive it and give it my test drive... (RUN)...THANKS
PROS:- Looks like a normal workout watch. Not nearly as clunky as the units of old.- Very quick satellite lock, even when indoors. The 220 will usually lock onto the GPS signal from inside my garage in the amount of time it takes me to put on my running shoes.- Satellite lock is solid even in heavily wooded areas. No loss of signal.- Intuitive user interface. I stopped using the Soleus because even after several months, none of the menus made any sense to me. The 220 is very intuitive and self-explanatory (which is helpful since it doesn't come with a full user manual in the box -- just a quick start guide).- Vibrating alerts. It can buzz your wrist at the end of an interval, so that you don't have to rely on auditory cues.CON:- No user manual included -- you have to download it from Garmin.com.- Garmin Connect website is just ok. But, you can sync your runs to Runkeeper or other platforms using third-party sites.
Ok, so if you are an avid runner, beginning runner, or even a seasoned veteran and you don't already have a gps watch with a heart rate monitor then this one is for you! I have been using the forerunner 220 for a couple of months now and I am astounded at the amount of information and feedback that this little puppy can give you. The best part is that your workouts can be auto uploaded via Bluetooth to your smartphone and the Garmin Connect app. From the app or from Garmin's connect website (both free!) you can totally analyze your run. Connect works very similar to the "map my run" app, but it is way more in depth (gps route info, heart rate, cadence, instantaneous or per mile rate, elevation, etc). Because of this amazing piece of technology I am now working steeper hills and much longer runs based on my heart rate while continuously improving my pace. By the way, I'm writing this review because I actually just bought a second forerunner 220 for my wife so she stops stealing mine!

Chiefs expected to be much quieter in free agency
KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) — When general manager John Dorsey and coach Andy Reid were hired by the Chiefs last year, they knew that there would be plenty of turnover on a roster that produced just two wins.
So, they predictably made a splash — the kind you make doing a cannonball off the high diving board — in free agency, signing veterans such as Sean Smith and Dunta Robinson, picking up role players such as offensive lineman Geoff Schwartz and giving everything a fairly thorough overhaul.
It all seemed to work, too. The Chiefs went 11-5 and made the playoffs.
The downside of all that maneuvering is that now the team is starved for cash, and with free agency starting Tuesday, the Chiefs are looking at a much more modest splash.
Think pebble-in-a-pond kind of splash.
The priorities are interior offensive line, where Schwartz and Jon Asamoah are due to hit free agency, along with wide receiver and free safety. Offensive line and defensive back are two areas with depth, so Kansas City just might be able to make due with its shoestring budget.
"No team stays the same, players or coaches, and we have free agents on this team," Reid said. "We know that things happen in this league and there are changes that take place."
How many changes will be determined by how much wiggle room the Chiefs will have under the salary cap. As of last week, they had about $9.6 million to spare, and that doesn't include the roughly $5 million that it'll take to sign their own draft picks.
That means filling their needs might take some creativity.
The Chiefs have several massive contracts on their books, and could conceivably free up some wiggle room by restructuring or extending them. The two obvious candidates are Pro Bowl safety Eric Berry, who carries a massive $11.6 million cap hit, and quarterback Alex Smith, who counts about $8 million against the cap and whose contract expires after this season.
In the case of Smith, the Chiefs have already acknowledged a desire to work out an extension. They sent a package of draft picks to San Francisco last year for him, and Smith responded with arguably the finest season of his career.
"When we made the trade for him a year ago, that was part of the thinking," Chiefs chairman Clark Hunt told Kansas City radio station 810 WHB in a recent interview. "I don't think that thinking has changed. He came in and did a nice job. We're glad to have him a part of the Kansas City Chiefs and we hope it's longer than a two-year stay."
Massaging the current roster could free up enough cash for Kansas City to at least entertain the thought of filling their most glaring needs prior to the draft.
Along with Schwartz and Asamoah becoming free agents, the Chiefs are also losing left tackle Branden Albert. But there's an internal replacement for him in Donald Stephenson, who performed admirably in spot duty last year. The more pressing need is at guard, and there appears to be mutual interest in Schwartz and the Chiefs working out a deal.

Winning design chosen for Brazil's new Antarctic base
Currently in the preliminary study stage, the Estação Antártica project is due to be completed in 2015
The architects prioritized function and spatial distribution when they conceived the new building that spreads over 3,200 m² (34,445 ft²)
The project features a beautiful formal composition that favors horizontality and is strengthened by the rhythm of the support structures
Estúdio 41 has won the bid to design the new Brazilian base in Antarctica which will replace the one destroyed by a fire in 2012
Article Summary
The winning proposal for the new Ferraz Antarctic station has been announced by the Brazilian navy at an event in Rio de Janeiro. The design by Curitiba-based Estúdio 41 takes into account the challenge of extreme weather conditions and aims to minimize environmental impact while adapting to the topography of the building site on the Keller Peninsula.

This is a relatively primitive campground, is steep and surrounded by trees. Beautiful. A hike to Otter Creek is magical, with beautiful flowing water and dark woods. Kids can wade in the creek. The campground is well-run and the staff is very friendly. Electricity is reliable. No Wi-Fi is available. There is not much to do in the area except Indian Steps Museum, which is a diamond in the rough. It is worth spending several hours there. There is a nice ice cream shop about 5 miles away. The beef barbecue that they serve is of average quality. - tdrager
Jun 2013 - $35.00
Campground was nice and quiet. Close to the river but not on the river. It was a very clean and VERY friendly place. They had catered barbeque which looked and smelled great but we didn't take part. The trails were nice but could use a little maintenance. We have a Class C and fit very easily in the site. It wasn't perfectly level but didn't take much to level out the rig. They said the staff would assist if I wanted help. It was a very good experience. - rcsauce
Jul 2012 - $25.00
Magical. This is the best word I can think of to describe this campground. Surrounded by water, the Susquehanna River in the front, Otter Creek on one side, Sawmill Creek on the other. The hiking is incredible, The Mason Dixon trail goes right through the campground. Otter Creek sports 3 small beautiful waterfalls, which you can see by hiking the nature trail. Urey Point (up the road with a nice parking area) offers an incredible view of the Susquehanna River and dam. There is a nice one mile hiking trail here for the person who doesn't want a long hike. The sites are huge and rustic. Exactly what we prefer. Trees and wildlife abound. A bear even visited the camp while we were there! Bird watching is at it's best, we enjoyed the bright red cardinals frolicking and playing amongst the majestic trees. The campers are friendly and happy. We made many lifetime friends in the 2 months we stayed here. The washers are large and the dryers rock! No damp clothes here! Bring your canoe, the river is as smooth as glass in the evenings. Pull up to an island and watch the deer, crane and many other species of birds of prey. Right down the street is an Amish farm for all your fresh veges, fruits, canned goods, baked goods and cheeses. This is the perfect destination to camp and check out the Susquehanna River cities (Wrightsville, where the covered bridge over the Susquehanna River was burned down during the Civil War) Gettysburg, Harrisburg, York, Hershey's Chocolate Factory and Lancaster County with all it's fabulous Amish towns and doings. PA-124 is a perfect Harley riding road! Curvy and smooth, no stop lights and lots of whoop-de-doos! As for the camp directors I can't thank them enough! They go out of their way and take the time to get to know you and make sure you are comfortable. I wish every campground we stayed at had such personable hosts! Love you guys! In 8 years of traveling with my husband for his work this is by far my favorite campground! Sure hope we get another job out this way, Pennsylvania is wonderful and so friendly! P.S. We are from the mountains of Montana, this camp rates right up there...which is hard to do given that we have the best in Montana. Kudos to the camp directors. - Bitterroot Bud

Bristol Palin Bans Levi Johnston From 'Dancing' Set
Bristol Palin hasn't set foot on the 'Dancing With the Stars' ballroom dance stage and she is already demanding that her attention-starved ex-fiance, Levi Johnston, be barred from the audience.
"The last thing in the world Bristol wants is to look up from her cha-cha-cha and see his big goofy grin looking at her," a family friend tells me. "This is her time to shine and she doesn't want him trying to steal her spotlight."
Levi has a long history of popping up in places where the Palins don't want him, including a trip to their hometown of Wasilla with comedian Kathy Griffin and her reality show camera crew.
"I wouldn't put it past him to try and sneak into a taping," an insider tells me. "The only person that loves the press more than the Palins is Levi himself."
Bristol, who shares custody of son Tripp with Levi, will be living in Los Angeles with her baby once the show goes live each week. Her mom, Sarah, is expected to be spending time with them and visiting the ballroom to cheer her daughter on.
"Security is very tight at 'Dancing With the Stars,'" an ABC executive tells me. "If someone is not wanted in the ballroom, I can assure you they will not get in."
Which is a good thing because we don't need blood on the dance floor!

Wait, YESTERDAY bristle was DENYING she has made any demands other than a special mic set. TODAY she is demanding someone (her child's father)not be allowed on set. What will TOMORROW bring? I wonder if anyone else will be allowed on set when sara barracuda shows up. Can anyone say DIVA?!!!
- Thursday 09 SeptemberBy moudsie
And this twit says she isn't a diva -- puhlease and why would he want to sit in the audience? It's just another publicity ploy -- and you can bet Mama Palin has her face in there trying to run the show -- OMG
- Thursday 09 SeptemberBy katydid579
The best thing is they will place her last in the lineup believing everyone will watch the whole show in order to see her. So, after everyone else has danced just tune her out. If only it were that easy with her so-called mother.
- Thursday 09 SeptemberBy Don
Why would that twit be there in the first place. He isnt related by blood or marrage to anyone there, just another jerk looking for his ten minutes of fame.

So he's only good enough for money? For child support? He really is more than just a 'baby daddy'.
- Thursday 09 SeptemberBy papi looie
the word on the street is she's like her mother, they both like looking up at the ceiling.
Why in the hell would he want to sit in the audience anyway?This is stupid....I hope the camera shows her mother because they will see how political the show is.........
- Thursday 09 SeptemberBy falling
Why would he want to be in the audience....maybe because some low level rag pays him a few bucks to show up and make a scene? He has already had to admit he lied about the Palin family, do you really think he is above doing something similar to make a few more bucks and stretch out his 15 minutes of fame? Poor guy needs to go home and get his HS diploman so he can support his kids...they seem to be adding up pretty quickly!

Tee hee....Thought they were going to ban Kate Gosselin.

The show hasn't even started yet and she is bringing her teenage drama. I can only hope she is the 1st voted off, with her constipated smile. She is as big a pain as he ex.

I won't watch....Bristol also said that levi liked the limelight...so what does she do ?She goes on TV....the apple doesn't fall from the tree........

She has a child to support and a legitimate TV show offered her a small fortune...she would have been stupid to refuse? She needs the money and can get it legally, good for her! Her contract with DWTS says she must do the talk show rounds...they need the publicity, she provides it. I admire her for finding a legitimate way to support her son...I wish more of our young ladies would do that instead of making the other "choice"!

"The last thing in the world Bristol wants is to look up from her cha-cha-cha and see his big goofy grin looking at her," a family friend tells me."THIS IS HER TIME TO SHINE AND SHE DOESN'T WANT HIM TRYING TO STEAL HER SPOTLIGHT."
That one line says it all!!!!
- Thursday 09 SeptemberBy Patti
Why would he even want to go see her? I still can't believe DWTS even has her on this season. She's hardly a star. The picks each season just keep going downhill--picking Bristol--they finally hit ROCK BOTTOM!!!!!!
- Thursday 09 September
Good luck Bristol. You are an amazing woman and we will be cheering you on.
Oh yeah ,she's amazing....??????

Who is watching the baby? this little brat needs to be takeing care of that child instead of worring who will steal her thunder!

|Half Baths
|Property type
|Minimum Stay
|5 nights
This recently renovated apartment is located in Quartier Latin, near the famous French open market called 'rue Mouffetard'... bakeries, fresh fruits and vegetables, newspapers, flowers, etc…everything you could need is just there.
Pantheon, Luxembourg, the famous university La Sorbonne are within walking distance of this apartment.
This apartment is at the very center of one of the city's most charming quarter.
The apartment is in an open spirit, very well designed and equiped. There is a bedroom with queen-size bed, a bathroom with bathtub and separate shower, a very nice living-room, an additional opened 'office room' which can be easily used as a second bedroom with one or two single beds.
The apartment is located on the 2nd floor (elevator).
The apartment is 10 yards from the metro in a lovely building with an elevator. Anything you could possibly need is in the apartment - supplies, sheets, towels, etc. The Owner has thought of everything. Dishwasher and washer/dryer included and easy to use. Beautiful, clean apartment with unbelievable access to the metro and a great neighborhood for exploring and eating! We were met at the building and given keys and instructions - so easy and reasonably priced. We would recommend this apartment to anyone. There were 3 of us in the apartment for 7 days and 4 of us there for an additional 3 days - it was terrific.
We were very pleased with the whole rental experience with Cecile. From our first contact with her we found her to be nothing but helpful. We arrived at the apartment late Saturday evening, and we were let in by Justine who showed us around the apartment. She helped to make us feel at home. We found the apartment to be very well equipped and comfortable. I must say that we lacked for nothing during our stay; the roses, wine, and macaroons provided by Cecile were a very nice touch. The proximity of the apartment to the metro stop was very convenient. After 8 days of walking around Paris, you really appreciate the short walk from the metro over to your apartment. You feel like you are in the heart of Paris with the open air markets, wonderful bakeries and local restaurants. It was a wonderful trip for our family and we look forward to our next stay at the apartment with the blue door.
This apartment is 100% wonderful! This was my first trip to Paris, actually my first trip outside the USA. From the moment my husband and I were greeted at the door by Justine, we fell in love with Cecile's apartment. The location could not be better - only steps to the Metro and surrounded by blocks of interesting cafes, bakeries, grocers and all other shops you might enjoy or need. The neighborhood is so typically "Parisian", I felt like l was living in a movie. Cecile added to the romance by stocking the apt with fresh flowers and a bottle of champagne. As the other reviewers have noted, the apt is well furnished and spotlessly clean. The bed was very comfortable, especially after 10-12 hours of sightseeing in the most beautiful city in the world. I will always remember my seeing the Eiffel Tower for the first time. And the view of the city are stunning from Sacre Couer! One of our favorite mornings was spent shopping at Rue Moffetard for baked chicken, fresh fruit, cheese, bread and pastries. Cecile even has a straw basket in the apt for us to take to the market to carry our treasures. I don't think you could find a nicer apt or more hospitable hosts than Cecile and her assistant, Justine. I highly recommend this apartment (I wish I could give it more than 5 stars) and I hope someday we will be able to return.
We loved Paris and we loved our stay at Cecile's apartment. Justine (Cecile was away at the time) met us after our long journey and explained where everything was and how it worked. We where also greeted with beautiful flowers ,macarons, wine and water. Thank you so much for that!
The apartment was a comfortable size for myself, husband and sixteen yr old son. The kitchen had everything we needed to make meals including some supplies for picnics.
The area was a perfect starting point for exploring Paris by foot, bicycle or Metro. The Metro was right outside and great for getting us any where we wanted to go. Also nice to be right at our doorstep after long hot days of exploring! The Mouffetard market is just blocks away and there is a small grocery store just up the street. We also felt very safe walking around this area.
We wouldn't hesitate to recommend staying here and would stay again if ever back in Paris.
We had the pleasure of staying at this apartment just a few weeks ago, for a wonderful week exploring Paris. Our experience with this apartment was simply wonderful, and a big part of how nice and relaxed our Paris experience was.
First, the apartment itself was great, and fit nicely for our family of four including a teen boy and a almost-teen girl. Enough room for everyone -although to set expectations, this is a Paris apartment, not a suburban American house :). Everything in good working order, and everything on-hand so that one can spend a cozy meal at home as easily as eating at one of the many cafes nearby. In fact, we had breakfast at home each morning, it was such a beautiful place to be, and outside your window is Paris! I would definitely enjoy staying here again and again.
Justine and Cecile were great -wine and treats on arrival, helpful in getting settled, giving us directions from the airport, arranging a cab when we left, and even being available on the phone when I couldn't figure out how to turn on the shower!
The neighborhood is fantastic. Bakeries, cheese shops, charcuteries, greengrocers, markets, many of each within a block. Tons of restaurants and cafes (including one from Rick Steeve's book) and the fun of Rue Mouffetard, within that same distance. Metro station literally steps away from the front door. but we ended up not even using the Metro most of the time, because it was an easy walk (past open-air markets!) to Notre Dame, and from there, the rest of Paris.
Every single person we met in the neighborhood was fantastically nice. The shopkeepers were gracious about trying to understand my horrible French, and equally gracious when I had to switch back to English.
This was our first trip to Paris, and if we ever get the chance to come back, I would love to stay here again!
I don't know where to begin. My mother and my daughter and I stayed in this wonderful apartment for a week in May. The location was awesome. We took the metro literally everywhere and I loved being so close to the station. The area was quiet at night and we always felt very safe, not only there but everywhere that we went in Paris. The owner was so helpful in the days and weeks leading to our arrival. She was professional, kind, efficient and so thoughtful. There were DVDs for my 10 year old daughter in the apartment since I had mentioned them before coming. The property manager, Justine was amazing ! She spoke great English and was always on time and professional. The apartment was clean and comfortable and also nicely decorated. We are already planning our next trip to Paris and will definitely be staying in this apartment. The best part was that the apartment was walking distance to a Starbucks ;) I can't think of any complaints except that we were not used to the washer/dryer combo and spent well over an hour trying to figure it out as everything is in French. Lol. But that was nothing compared to the wonderful time we spent in Paris. We were able to relax and have a great time knowing we could come back "home" to an amazing place at the end of the day.

First day out dream building! We are searching for OUR land. Land here in Tennessee where our children raise our grandchildren. A farm house we update and preserve, land we learn how to raise animals on, and a huge garden we plant. Encouraging our parents and children to live on our land. Where we laugh, growing older together, traveling, blogging, loving our blessed life!
Spoons Persimmons a Stranger and her winter forecast
Waiting on a bus at Fort Wilderness Campground a few weeks ago, a lady walks up and just starts chatting away about their trip and the cabin they are staying in. How soaked their shoes were, where they were from and the area she lived in, in Indiana. She struck me as so warm and I felt like we should exchange addresses and become pen pals. She was not shy by any means, nor was she too talkative. Although she fit a lot into two minutes before the bus got there, we were still able to be involved. She even shared her weather forecast. She had always lived in Indiana. This is where my husband and I were born. I vaguely remember some pretty cool ways of being able to tell the weather and how the crops would turn out. The one she shared quickly as the bus was pulling in-she found two spoons in a persimmon. A lot of snow will be coming their way! Luckily, we live in Tennessee, close to Nashville. But still. I am curious and wish I had gotten home and looked for a persimmon!
Two lovers, best friends, married. One umbrella. Continual rain. Holding hands, laughing, talking, visiting a different world. Imagining ourselves in other countries and not a care in the world. Feeling sorry for individuals all around us that couldn't let down and enjoy their time together because it was wet. We embraced all. Dark clouds, puddles, too. They lost. We found love, joy, & romance.
Red Robin Gourmet Burgers & Brew-Restaurant Review
A couple of weeks ago, we visited our local Red Robin Restaurant in Mt. Juliet, or Providence,TN. This was our first, but not our last visit. We were greeted in a very friendly manner by the hostess that was shocked to see her and I had similar hair. Short, black, and very bright pink in the front. She teased with the manager that I was trying to steal her look.
We had arrived on a Saturday, 15 minutes after they had opened, and were seated at the last available table. The place was packed and everyone was laughing and talking. We felt right at ease and had a great time with our son, daughter, grandson, and granddaughter. The restaurant manager came by to ask how we were and to jokingly ask if I was the twin sister of their hostess. To which I responded with a huge HA since I am about 20 years older than her.
We started out with a huge stack of onion rings! Oh my,how yummy. Our waitress was right on, with great timing, refilling our drinks, checking on us, and helping us become cardless members. We were well on our way to earning a free hamburger and at the end of our meal we received a free $10 dessert.
Anyone that knows me, knows I love hamburgers. We are on a mission to visit our local Red Robin and others as we begin to travel and try each and every hamburger on the menu. We won't stop there. The wraps, salads, chicken burgers, the brew, and the soups will have to be tested.
Last night sweet Gary surprised me with another visit to Red Robin to try a different appetizer and their milkshakes that we have heard tasty talk about.Thick and tasty they were. We shared nachos, guacamole, and salsa.
What a fun and relaxing night with my baby on a date, at a place we just found that is so great.
So, go, relax,eat, pray. Love,Jennifer
Christmas In July At Our House
Blessings, in abundance, in our house. Our blessings are sent from above. They are in love for our children, family members, and close friends. Blessings given as gifts. Such as, good health, happiness, the strength of love dissolving the stress of life.
We decided before our last two children moved out this year, that we wanted to celebrate Christmas with them. So Christmas in July came to our house this weekend.
Friday, we loaded up in my truck and visited our very nice Kroger store. Our daughter took her two children and worked on getting all the dairy products we needed, and our son went in search of baking items. I reread the list several times,added a few things and then we headed home for some hot cheddar broccoli soup and warm blueberry muffins. Of course, we needed a warm meal if we were pretending it was snowing outside! We listened to Christmas music and ended up Friday evening watching Trapped in Paradise.
Saturday morning began the preparations of ham,corn souffle,green bean casserole,baked beans,cookies, and pumpkin pie. We had Christmas themed cartoons on for the babies and enjoyed looking at the decorations and lights that filled the family room, kitchen, and bathrooms.
Today, Sunday, we will bake cookies, ice and decorate them, enjoy leftovers, watch more Christmas movies and my husband will read from the book of Luke in the Bible. In our minds are visions of past holidays and travels, memories we have shared with one another. In our hearts is overflowing love and abundant blessings that we never dreamt could be. Happy Christmas! Merry Christmas in July! Love Hope and Peace! Jen
Starting at Start Again
Hard work has always been a wonderful way for me to keep in shape, help others, and make very good money. My residential cleaning business grew quite large and branched into commercial, new construction, and cleaning boats for shows. I met and am still meeting, some very wonderful individuals, that make me feel like part of their family. I was still able to take our four children to school each morning and pick them up each day. I made great use of our crock pot, kept our own home clean, and had nights and weekends, usually, free. I always enjoyed, and still do, having my own business and being a loving family of six.
Lately, Gary and I have been developing new ideas that are very different from our current way of thinking, living, and working. By mid-August, we will be an empty nest. We have found it very exciting to think about being just the two of us.
Then I began to worry what will we do? I admit to being kind of emotional and experiencing some panic. Could I be exciting enough, that my husband would want to start a new chapter in life with me?
I decided. Yes! We are in love. We want to travel our beautiful United States, we want to eat and cook new foods and drinks, we look forward to exercising, bike riding, hiking, swimming, hang gliding, learning to dance, bake, write, photograph, blog, laugh, and take care of each other.
So the title says Starting at Start Again. In a game, that can be discouraging. But in life, that CAN be encouraging! Excited to share pics and blogs about the paths we enjoy together in the second phase of our life. Love. JenlovesGary
Our 1st Rail to Trail
A big handshake! A huge smile and many thank-you's to those who had the vision to change some of our rails to trails. I have always loved hearing and seeing our trains working hard! I truly miss seeing them in action, but if some are no longer in service, I am thankful that the path is still being traveled. It is traveled in a different and slower way than first intended, but the memories and sounds are still there.
My first rail trail to take and enjoy was spent over the 4th of July weekend with my husband and mother-in-law. We walked a total of thirteen miles in three days! We spent the walk enjoying and seeing the wonders of nature all around us and not hearing or seeing the sounds of Bedford,Indiana as it woke up. We greeted other walkers, runners, and bicyclists. The vision of recycling and preserving a railway trail that took strength to build, that has its own memories and stories to tell, has a new look and is ready for travel. The trails help to provide an excellent way for people to get in shape, enjoy peace and quiet, and to meet new people. The Milwaukee Railroad, Indiana's limestone quarry's, and the wonderful people that worked so hard to start this path will not be forgotten. People will look up their history and share with their families and friends and those they meet on the rail trail. So! ALL ABOARD!

Wacom Intuos vs Bamboo
Ok, so I need help deciding. I have the Bamboo Fun small right now, but I am thinking about moving up to the Bamboo Medium for the increased real estate. However, then i could upgrade to the intuos for essentially an extra hundred dollars. Now that would be hard for me to come up with, but I also want to make sure that I wont regret not buying the intuos. I know the differences from a technical aspect, but how much do the advantages to the intuos over the Bamboo really make a difference? I used the tablet for every day tasks, ink blogging, photoshop and corel painter.
Some input would be excellent.
Also any recommendations of where to purchase one of these for the lowest price would be appreciated.

Just buy the Intuos - it offers more levels of preasure and believe me you won't reget purchasing it.
You can buy other tools for it that you can't buy for the Bamboo.

I'd say if you can save to get the Intuos then do so but if needs dictate then get what you can afford.

The practical difference in Painter will be comparable to switching from using a crayon (Bamboo) to a fine tipped marker (Intuos), while doing detail work. If you're doing any sort of detail work, than it's worth the $100 to get the Intuos. If the 'crayon' is detailed enough, than stick with the Bamboo.
|May 14, 2008, 05:59 PM
I wouldnt get it for the extra tools, I have never wanted to use those expensive pens and havent known anyone else that used them, the regular pen is the best. Personally I hate the angle crap in painter, so its not a plus for me.
If you do a lot of drawing and painting then the Intuos is a worthwhile investment. It has better control and is a lot more durable. An Intuos will last you as long as USB is still around. I have an Intuos 1 and it could still pass off as "like new" if I sold it.

The Bamboo's are also very scratchy where as the Intuos just feels very smooth.

i have the bamboo and although i don't use it that much (i don't know why but internet/normal tasks are just easier with a mouse than a tablet for me)
I've already found the tablet is a bit scratched - not deep scratches by any means, but little scratches i could probably get out with a good clean up with a damp cloth.
And the nib has almost worn away (is that normal? - i've only used it for about 100 hours, i'm guessing) - do you have to buy replacement nibs?
All in all i'm neither happy nor disappointed with it. I just don't use it that much at the moment, but when i go back to university next year they provide us with A5 (or A4, can't remember) Intuos tablets so i'll get used to using them a bit more i guess.
It's a bit tricky using the side buttons on the pen at the moment!

The Bamboo is built for fun, and less detailed tasks. The nibs are known to wear out quickly. Fortunately, you can replace them on the cheap.
The Intuos comes with a few nibs, one of which is graphite, and imo, offers better control for finer detail.
It takes a bit to get used to using a tablet, regardless of which one you purchase. You just need to dedicate a bit of time and effort. Once you feel comfortable, you often wonder how you got along without it. But, they aren't for everyone, and some people find their work
flow is more efficient with a mouse.
As far as the scratching? This doesn't detract from the performance of the tablet, unless you're talking about deep grooves. The Intuos come with a protective sheet that covers the actual tablet, but not sure on the Bamboo. Either way, it's most likely nothing to worry about.
One thing to consider, is the fact that the Bamboo is not as pressure sensitive, and you may find yourself applying excessive force on the tablet with your pen in order to feel the level of control necessary for your tasks. This is obviously much less an issue with the Intuos, due to it's increased pressure sensitivity.
The Intuos are more realistic to tactile mediums than the Bamboo, and therefore also take less time to feel comfortable using. My first tablet was the Graphire line, which is what the Bamboo replaced. I felt very awkward using it, and gave up quickly, but when I got the Intuos, it felt more natural, and the difference was very noticeable.
I seriously think that if you can afford to purchase the Intuos over the Bamboo, it's a wise choice. It's better to spend a bit more on something you'll actually use regularly, than to spend a bit less on something that will quickly become a dust collector.

Slight hijacking...
I tend to draw stuff when I'm taking notes at my desk. After I draw it, I try to put it into my computer so I can cut/paste sections and move them around.
I was thinking of picking up a very inexpensive tablet for use with my Mini and my PC.
I'm looking at the Bamboo (not the "fun" one).
I have the graphic ability of a dead cockroach, this is just to help me stop using paper when I want to draw something.
For instance, if I'm trying to figure out the wiring diagram for four computers in a small space, which systems share a USB hub, which devices are specific to each box, etc.
Would a Bamboo be the right way to go, should I save up for something better, or should I stick to killing trees?
I appreciate any direction, and apologize for shifting the thread a tiny bit.
If there's a new way, I'll be the first in line. But it better work this time.
|May 16, 2008, 04:32 PM
Its not uncommon for people to give up using a tablet and resort back to a mouse after a day or 2 since they get frustrated and say they can draw better with a mouse.
|May 16, 2008, 04:35 PM
Is a tablet overkill? I can't draw worth two craps with a mouse.
I'm just wondering if the $80 is worth the look, or if I'm just trying to spend money I don't have on a solution I don't need. :-)
If there's a new way, I'll be the first in line. But it better work this time.

i think if youre looking at getting the bamboo you may want to get the bamboo fun as you get some good software for only \20 extra dollars

ok, so I'm deciding between a bamboo fun medium and a intuos 4 small. I know all the technical advantages to the Intuos4, but it's so expensive! I would obviously like the Intuos better, but it costs more for a smaller active area. I was wondering whether the 6.2" x 3.9" Intuos area will be enough. I will use it for CG pictures, but I'm not a professional or anything.

Bamboo fun or intuos?
im stuck between trying to choose a tablet. its between the intuous4 small or the bamboo fun medium. im not sure how often it is going to be used as i have never used one but it will most likely be used for image editing. Is it worth paying the extra to get the intuos4 or should i stick to a bamboo fun?
|Aug 23, 2009, 11:00 AM
To answer the two above posts it is a matter of how much space do you need to work with. I had started out with the small Intuos, 4x6 and it was too small so I bought the 6x8 and nice as it was I still liked and wanted a bigger tablet since I was used to a 16x24 or larger drawing pad in school so that ended with me buying the 9x12 Intuos3. I do like the Intuos pens much better but if size of work space could be an issue the Bamboo would be the way to get started.
I would and have tried this method, cut a piece of paper to the work size of said tablet and see how it would work for you. Then look at the rest of the features each tablet has or lacks and go from there.

I can't live without a tablet now. Mice are soooo slow and cumbersome. I'm a video editor, not an illustrator, btw.
The single worst feature of the bamboo models is the crippled driver. Wacom doesn't allow you to customize functions based on application. I like to use my pen clicker as right-click in Photoshop, for instance, but as a middle-click in Firefox. Having to work around the crippled driver is a major pain and a stupid move on Wacom's part. If they think they'd hurt Intuos sales by adding a decent driver to the Bamboos, they're not too smart. The Intuos are a world of difference in feel and quality, but the Bamboos would be awesome for a 2nd (portable) tablet or for people who don't need the quality of the Intuos.
Come on, Wacom, wake up already.

For those looking at getting a small intuos, remember you can get an intuos3 for much much less. I have one and it's really great, so if money's an issue...

Think about Intuos2 or even 3, they all really do the same.

I've also used a lot the biggest Intuos 2 (A3 sized) and although the pen itself is much better, the small one I have at home is 90% as good (other models of Graphire I've used were very bad with slippery surfaces, it seems they have all changed now)

According to a Hollywood Reporter news item, Mary Astor originally was to co-star with William Powell. Hollywood Reporter news items add Nancy Tribble and Millard Mitchell to the cast, but their appearance in the final film has not been confirmed. The film was shot on location at Weeki Wachee Spring, Florida. Ann Blyth wore an enormous foam rubber and latex tail for her role, and seaweed was artfully draped across her upper body, drawing comments from some critics. The Los Angeles Times review called the seaweed placement "a triumph of the Johnson office over the ichthyologists, and a rather humorous commentary on American mores in itself." Mr. Peabody and the Mermaid was performed on the Lux Radio Theatre on September 6, 1948, with William Powell and Irene Hervey recreating their original roles. The 1949 British film Miranda also featured a plot about a mermaid who comes between a man and his wife, and in 1984, the romantic comedy Splash portrayed a man who falls in love with a mermaid and chooses to live with her underwater.

CORPUS CHRISTI, Texas, April 10, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Thomas J. Henry, a personal injury attorney leading the nation in GM recall injury and death litigation, has filed yet another lawsuit through his legal team naming current and former GM engineers Raymond DeGiorgio, Gary Altman, Mark LaNeve, Lori Queen, and Jim Queen as defendants in a recent ignition switch recall case.
According to the lawsuit filed by the legal team on April 10, 2014, the engineers had knowledge about defects in the ignition switches of 2.6 million Chevy, Saturn, and Pontiac vehicles. The ignition switches on these vehicles can fail, causing loss of vehicle power, loss of power steering, and non-deployment of airbags. The recalled vehicles have been linked to 303 deaths and numerous other accidents and injuries.
Details of the Chevy Cobalt Accident
The lawsuit was filed on behalf Didra De Los Santos, the owner of a 2006 Chevy Cobalt which was included in the GM ignition switch recall.
On September 4, 2013, Didra was involved in a serious auto accident in her 2006 Chevy Cobalt. According to the lawsuit, she sustained serious and permanent spinal injuries in the crash.
Forensic experts retrieved the black box from the vehicle and determined that air bags failed to deploy in the accident, a known side-effect of recalled GM vehicles with defective ignition switches.
"DeGiorgio designed an improvement for the ignition switch in 2007, although he later denied, under oath, that he had done so. He did this in what can only be described as an attempt to conceal a defective condition that GM knew about in the 2006 Chevrolet Cobalt, the vehicle owned by Plaintiff."
- Excerpt from Lawsuit (Cause # 2014-CCV-60788-2, filed In Nueces County Court at Law #2)
Engineers and the Recall
According to reports, email correspondence between GM engineers has revealed that the individuals responsible for approving the fatal parts not only knew that the parts were defective, but even considered replacing them for that reason. Ultimately, it was determined that replacing the switches was not "cost effective." The cost of replacing the switches was reportedly 90 cents.
GM engineers named in the lawsuit include:
Raymond DeGiorgio – According to the lawsuit, DeGiorgio, lead design engineer for the Chevy Cobalt, approved a redesign of the ignition switch in 2006 but did not document the decision "in what can only be described as an attempt to conceal a defective condition." He has since been suspended with pay.
Gary Altman, Jim Queen, Lori Queen, and Mark LaNeve – According to the lawsuit, these were all high ranking engineers who are accused of being "involved in the cover up at GM concerning the extent of New GM's knowledge of the defective switch and the dangers it posed to the Plaintiff and others."
Thomas J. Henry Comments on Latest Lawsuit
Thomas J. Henry Injury Attorneys is representing a very large number of individuals who were injured and the families of those who lost loved ones in accidents involving the recalled vehicles.
According to lead attorney Thomas J. Henry, the naming of engineers in this lawsuit will help hold responsible parties accountable for their role in covering up these fatal defects.
"This is about corporate responsibility and personal responsibility," he stated. "The victims and their families deserve to know exactly what happened - who approved these defective parts and who covered it up."
"We intend to hold accountable every individual who had a part in knowingly letting these defective vehicles on the road- from the engineers, to the CEOs."

Enterprises are turning to the hybrid cloud to drive greater scalability and cost-effectiveness. But enterprises should beware as the definition of "policy" varies wildly.

One of my favorite episodes of I Love Lucy is where the Ricardos and the Mertzes decide to go into business together, and buy a diner. Halfway through the episode, they've argued so much about how to run the business, they've divided the place down the middle with tape, and are so intent on beating each other, they get into a heated competition over their sole customer—a drunk who thought he was in a bar.
The whole thing ends in a classic pie fight before the four of them make up, as they always do. But the real kicker is when we learn they were taken by the man who sold them the diner in the first place, who makes a habit of selling it to people who want to go into business for themselves, and then buying it back for less than they paid when they inevitably discover they can't hack it. Fittingly, he ends up with the final pie in his face.
I've actually cited that episode as a cautionary tale about going into business with friends. And having witnessed partnerships fall apart to the point of getting lawyers involved and the former friends no longer speaking, I figured when I was ready to start my own business, I'd go out completely on my own and not invite the headaches and potential lawsuits that business partners can bring.
Things don't always work out the way you planned. I now do have a business partner in Claire Jackson, and I wouldn't have it any other way.
And that episode of I Love Lucy contains a few bits of good advice about entrepreneurship, if you look a little more closely.
Choose the Right Partner
I know, this bit of advice is very subjective, and extremely difficult to follow through with. How do you know you've chosen the right partner? A business partnership is much like a relationship with a significant other. Are you sure they won't cheat on you later? Are you sure they'll always treat you with respect and do what's right for both of you and not just for them? How can you ever really know until you dive in?
Well, you can look for signs. When they planned to buy that diner, the Ricardos and the Mertzes were relying on Ricky's name and Fred's know-how.
If your potential business partner is offering you some kind of immediate stature because of their already-established name, you may want to think twice. Stature is good, but a business doesn't function on stature. It may bring in customers at first, but you'd better be able to back it up with actual hard work.
Spell Out Responsibilities
The "I've got the name and you've got the know-how" refrain was the beginning of the end for the Ricardo-Mertz diner. It very quickly translated to the Mertzes doing all the work while the Ricardos sat back and took all the credit. Choosing the right business partner will require a lot of open, honest discussion, and it should even perhaps include some things in writing that spell out responsibility.
Any task taken on by more than one person requires at least a little division of labor to avoid duplication of effort, and to make sure everything gets done. Think about it—if you're planning a potluck, and just tell everyone to bring "something," you may end up with 20 bags of hot dog buns and no hot dogs.
Yay, that'll be a fun cookout.
If you'd assign tasks for something as simple as a potluck dinner, then you'd damn well better do it for your business. Start by inventorying your strengths and weaknesses.
Claire and I have discovered that while she's excellent at writing sales copy, I would rather stick a hot poker in my eye. And while I enjoy writing blog posts, she'd prefer to handle a snail bare-handed. (Side note: Claire irrationally hates cute, little snails. I don't know why. And let's not even discuss the slug incident.)
The point is, this knowledge helps us to not only divide labor fairly, it keeps us both happier in our work, and allows us to create better content for our clients. While I can write sales copy, it's not going to be as good as it should be because I don't enjoy writing it.
Enjoyment of a genre or topic is of paramount importance in the creative realm. And part of owning your own business is to be able to do what you enjoy rather than being forced to do what you hate in exchange for a paycheck.
Have a Contingency Plan
The Ricardos and the Mertzes didn't consider what would happen if they failed. It never even entered their minds that their joint venture wouldn't work out. I mean, they were friends after all, right? What could possibly go wrong?
This is what made them jump at the previous owner's offer when he came back to buy the diner back from them, and what caused them to lose 40 percent of their original investment.
One of the most difficult discussions you can have with your potential or existing business partner is, what happens if one of us decides to leave? What happens if one of us gets hit by a bus? What happens if, two years from now, I hate your guts? Hey, it happens.
Claire and I have been lucky to enjoy a really good business partnership. In fact, Claire has coined the term "business friendner" to describe our relationship. But people change, things happen, and the day could come when one or both of us wants to move on and do something else.
Although it's not required in the state of Texas for forming an LLC, we drafted an operating agreement. That document spells out everything from our shares in the company to what happens to the business if one of us is disabled or dies an untimely death, perhaps at the hands of evil, evil snails.
If you're considering going into business with a partner or partners, get an operating agreement. It's best to have a lawyer help you draft one, but you can also do one yourself with the help of sites like RocketLawyer. If you go that route temporarily, have one drawn up by an attorney as soon as you can afford it.
A Few Final Thoughts
What could have made the Ricardo-Mertz diner a success was if they'd not only been honest with each other about what they envisioned, but if they'd been honest with themselves. Entrepreneurship isn't for everyone, and business partnership definitely isn't for everyone.
Be honest with yourself—can you really work with a partner? Or do you work much better on your own? Either way it's fine, but don't embark on something that's going to make you miserable, and also make your partner miserable by having to deal with your misery.
And if you do decide to go the partnership route, always, always, always be honest with your partner, from day one and onward. If you can't be honest with each other before the business is even formed, don't move forward. You'll save everyone a lot of grief and attorney fees.
But if you hit it right—you find the right person, you can be honest with each other, and your skills complement each other well—you may find business partnership can be just as much fun as it is work.
