1967 Ford Mustang Fastback - A Golden Opportunity
After 33 years john Morgan's 1967 Ford Mustang Fastback is still alive and kicking
Ever since the new world (what we now call the USA) was discovered, people have wanted to venture westward to explore what this great continent had to offer. In the mid 1800s, it was the prospect of gold that brought droves of settlers to the West Coast, and later, it would be the allure of Hollywood as well as the wonderful climate that would attract even more people. Wanting to see what the Golden State had to offer, New Jersey's John Morgan packed his bags and headed to California to attend school.
A native of New Jersey, John grew up in the Garden State. When it came time to upgrade his wheels from Schwinn Stingray to something self-propelled, John used the money that he had saved while working at his parent's racquetball club, as well as pumping gas at the local service station, to buy his first car--the '67 Mustang GT you see here.
The superbly crisp and clean car looked very different back when John was racing it at Old Bridge Township's Raceway Park, or terrorizing the city streets. Back then, it was Dark Moss Green, and sported a 390ci engine and four-speed transmission. Within three years of purchasing the Mustang, John had bought two others, a '68 GT fastback, and another '67 fastback.
Though John would eventually part ways with the latter two, he has managed to hold onto his first car for 33 years.
"I was the second owner of the car, and it had a Holley carburetor but was otherwise stock," recalls John. With an obvious interest in automobiles, John enrolled in the vocational technical program at his school during his senior year. Utilizing the knowledge from his schooling and exercising his self-proclaimed "teacher's pet" status, John upgraded the Mustang with higher compression pistons, and a solid-lifter camshaft. He soon realized that adjusting the valves all of the time wasn't very fun.
"I ran it at the local track every now and then, but eventually got involved more in motorcross before moving out west for school," says John.
While enrolled at the Golden State's University of California Irvine, John put his nose to the proverbial grindstone while his Mustang sat dormant in his parent's garage back East. John eventually shipped it out West by train, where it bounced around from garage to garage, but John simply couldn't let it go. After his parents moved to California, the fastback once again found residence in their garage for another 10 years before John finally put procrastination aside and pulled the trigger on it's restomodification.
Inspired by a local car show, John tried to make it the following year, but the project went long and John finally made it the year after that.
Though the Mustang had but 47,000 original miles on the odometer, John wasn't impressed with the stock power steering or handling capabilities--20–plus years of driving newer cars will do that to you. Despite the changes, the Mustang still wears its original, though modified, 390-based engine, Top Loader four-speed gearbox, and Ford 9-inch rear.
After upgrading the engine, suspension, brakes, wheels, and tires, John opted for a complete color change when it came to the exterior of the car.
"My vision was to go with the classic Shelby white with blue stripes," recalls John. What set John's paint scheme apart from the traditional Wimbledon White and Blue Stripe look is the paint effects that were utilized.
John works for a chemical company that provides raw materials to paint companies. Just as he was getting ready to paint the Mustang, he was working with synthetic glass paint effects that were first used on electric guitars.
Where pearls give a soft luster using mica as a base, a synthetic glass provides a brighter and crisper look. John worked with the folks at TCP Global to utilize his Mustang as a testbed for using the glass effects in an automotive application. TCP handled the Mustang's makeover using a silver effect pigment in the white, and a blue effect in the blue. The result is a unique paintjob that will no doubt be replicated once the glass effects finally hit the automotive aftermarket.

PICS: Tim Burton's 'Alice in Wonderland' images surface
We have never more wanted to visit Wonderland.
USA Today has posted a series of images from Tim Burton's upcoming "Alice in Wonderland." Among them are darkly lush looks at some of Wonderland's landscapes, not surprising when associated with the Burton name.
Also very Burton? The pictures of Johnny Depp as the Mad Hatter, Helena Bonham Carter as the Red Queen and Anne Hathaway as the White Queen.
Depp in particular looks perfectly twisted:
Burton's "Wonderland" follows Alice, now a teen, who finds herself returned to Wonderland with no memory of her childhood adventures there. The movie opens March 5, 2010.

It is a week from the end of the three-day NFL Draft, which most experts believe saw the Steelers tally one of their better hauls in recent memory. Moreover, thanks to some unbelievable, bust-your-tail reporting by Steelers Depot, names of the 12 undrafted free agents signed by Pittsburgh were released within a few hours after the draft, or about 36 hours sooner than usual.
The Steelers may still make some minor roster moves before late July when they open training camp in Latrobe. But their training-camp roster appears mostly set. Thus, I will do our first projected Steelers' 53-man roster for 2012, with a few caveats, since this projection seemingly has more flexibility and thus will likely change more often than in recent years:
First, this projection assumes Pittsburgh will re-sign two veterans, although more minor additions could be made, including after other teams are forced to cut players to comply with the 53-player roster limit.
While I would prefer signing a more talented free agent (e.g., Tim Hightower, Jerious Norwood, Thomas Jones, Joseph Addai, Ronnie Brown, etc.), odds are the Steelers will re-sign versatile, veteran tailback Mewelde Moore after their only running back addition among rookies was Chris Rainey, a 180-pound scatback/slot receiver/return specialist.
With Rashard Mendenhall a near-lock to begin the season on the physically unable to perform list (PUP) for at least six weeks after tearing an ACL against the Browns in last year's regular-season finale, the Steelers need another veteran back on the roster. Isaac Redman is a complete back who appears ready to take over the starting role, but must cut down on his fumbles.
Jonathan Dwyer has played well in both pre-season and regular-season games in his rare opportunities, rushing for 107 yards against Tennessee last season in his only extensive regular-season action and averaging 4.7 yards on 76 career pre-season carries over the last two falls. Dwyer has a chance to earn significant playing time this fall if he actually shows up in shape for training camp, something he failed to do each of the last two years.
As of right now, Baron Batch, Rainey, and John Clay are battling for what would likely be two more running back spots on the roster (excluding H-back/situational fullback types). Batch, a lightly-regarded seventh-round pick out of Texas Tech in 2011, was the surprise of the first few weeks of training camp last fall when he appeared primed to earn significant playing time as a shifty, situational receiving back who could eventually supplant Moore as the third-down back. Unfortunately, he suffered a gruesome knee injury (torn ACL and MCL) on August 10th and was placed on injured reserve for the season.
It usually takes two years for a skill-position player to fully recover from such a knee injury and Batch cannot afford to lose any of his quickness and moves, which were his strengths. With the drafting of Rainey and the probable return of Moore, Batch will need a strong camp and preseason just to make the roster.
Clay is another Big Ten power back who lacks the speed to excel in the NFL. After going undrafted despite a strong career at Wisconsin, the 248-pound Clay spent most of the 2011 season on the Steelers' practice squad but was signed to the 53-man roster late in the year after Dwyer was lost to a season-ending injury, which occurred before Mendenhall tore his ACL.
Mostly unimpressive in limited playing time, Clay did score on a 10-yard run on his first NFL carry. Nevertheless, he has an uphill climb to make the roster. For better odds, he probably needs an injury to Redman or Dwyer, or for Dwyer to show up to Latrobe out of shape.
Moore has always been a marginal athlete for an NFL tailback and has slowed down considerably more as he approaches his 30th birthday. However, he is the most sure-handed, ball-protector from this group, by far the best in blitz pickup, and easily the most experienced NFL running back, especially in big games and clutch situations. Plus, the guy has a knack for making plays in some form (including special teams) that help win football games. Assuming he is re-signed, Moore is a near lock to make the team, because he is a Mike Tomlin favorite and the Steelers usually elect to keep their own veterans when in doubt.
The other assumption may be more of a reach. Even though the Steelers' offensive line depth chart looks better now than it has in nearly a decade following the additions of first-round guard David DeCastro and second-round tackle Mike Adams, let's make the assumption/hope that around the start of training camp (if not a little afterward), Pittsburgh is able to re-sign veteran tackle Max Starks (who is coming off an ACL tear suffered in the playoff loss to Denver) to a reasonable one-year deal.
Assuming Willie Colon stays healthy for the first time in two years and Adams does not fail any more piss tests, the Steelers would then release Jonathan Scott, who is slated to earn a base salary of $2.2 million for 2012, the last season on his two-year contract. Even if Starks is not signed, Scott is likely to be released unless he agrees to a significant paycut, a choice he may not even be presented.
Moreover, although DeCastro is lining up at at his college position of right guard during the team's current rookie minicamp and Colon will initially return to play right tackle, a healthy Starks or the rapid development of Adams could result in Colon finally being moved inside to guard, which seemingly appears a more natural fit for his 6-foot-3 frame, since NFL tackles now average 6-foot-6.
DeCastro is the best pulling guard prospect to enter the NFL in a decade. Athletic guards who can pull usually play on the left-side, but Stanford wanted to keep its second best offensive lineman (Dolphins' second-round steal Jonathan Martin) at left tackle to protect Andrew Luck's blindside, which is why DeCastro pulled from right guard for the Cardinal.
Since Colon is familiar with playing on the right-side of the line, it makes more sense for him to be eventually (if not in 2012, then definitely in 2013) tried at right guard than left guard, allowing the more athletic DeCastro to pull from the left-side.
The other options are to keep Scott as a reserve for 2012 if he is willing to reduce his base salary from $2.2 million to $685,000 (and I doubt he would), bring in Starks as a reserve who would only start due to injury or others' performing poorly, or cut Scott and not sign Starks, instead going with a younger, cheaper reserve or two to fill out the offensive line depth chart.
In the latter scenario, the Steelers would still have eight serviceable options on the offensive line, with Adams or guard Ramon Foster (whoever does not start), Doug Legursky and Trai Essex offering quality depth.
Chris Scott, rookie seventh-round pick Kelvin Beachum, 2011 practice-squad members John Malecki and Trevis Turner, and Ryan Lee, an athletic but undrafted rookie free agent from Furman who is already a YouTube sensation amongst Steelers Nation, would all be in competition for the ninth and a possible 10th roster spot on the offensive line.
THINNEST TRAINING CAMP ROSTER SINCE THE LATE 1990s?
Mendenhall (PUP) and second-year tight end Weslye Saunders, who is suspended by the NFL for the first four games of the 2012 season, will not count toward the 53-man, opening-day roster. Although he may not be ready for opening day, veteran nose tackle Casey Hampton (also recovering from a torn ACL) is not expected to be placed on the PUP list, which requires players to miss at least the first six games. However, concerns about the 35-year-old Hampton's health will almost necessitate the Steelers keeping seven defensive linemen on their 53-player roster to start the season.
There will be some camp battles for roster spots and the numbers at each position will be determined by quality of play in training camp and the preseason. For example, the Steelers could elect to keep five or six receivers, nine or ten offensive lineman, eight or nine linebackers, nine or ten defensive backs, etc.
However, the upcoming training camp and preseason is unlikely to produce the angst before final cuts that the 2011 and especially 2010 campaigns did, both of which featured ridiculously deep training-camp rosters that resulted in multiple Pittsburgh cuts who were immediately picked up by other franchises and added to their 53-man rosters (e.g., Crezdon Butler, Tony Hills, Patrick Bailey, Kraig Urbik, Stefan Logan). From that group, though, releasing Urbik – now a starting guard for the Bills – a year after making him a third-round pick seems to be the only Pittsburgh mistake.
This year it may be Pittsburgh scouring the waiver wire in early September. For example, the Steelers have historically kept five or six receivers on its 53-man roster, although six now seems a more logical number with the advent of 3- and 4-receiver sets in the team's offensive playbook.
At this point, former Penn State standout Derrick Williams and rookie seventh-round pick Toney Clemons are the favorites for the fifth receiver spot, with both having a decent shot of making the final roster if the Steelers keeps six receivers.
Williams, though, spent the entire 2011 season out of football after being cut by the Lions following the preseason, whereas Clemons (who has a nice combination of size and speed) was not expected to be among the 253 selections in the 2012 NFL Draft, since he was rated as 368th best overall prospect by CBS SportsLine and seemingly no other major services projected him to be drafted at all.
Accordingly, annual preseason sensation Tyler Grisham seemingly picked the wrong offseason to leave Pittsburgh for Denver, since Grisham not only would have actually had his first decent chance of making the 53-man roster, but probably would have been favored to do so. Nevertheless, do not be shocked if Grisham is signed to the Steelers' roster if he fails to make the Broncos and some youngsters in Pittsburgh's camp do not emerge. If that happens,it would be inevitable that many fans and even some Pittsburgh media reports to compare Grisham to Wes Welker.
The Steelers, however, has been among the best franchises at identifying hidden talent among the team's undrafted rookie free agents, with an alumni list that included eventual 2008 NFL Defensive Player of the Year James Harrison, two-time Pro Bowl tailback Willie Parker and legendary safety Donnie Shell.
Therefore, they will need some of their 12 undrafted rookie free agents (highlighted by Georgia punter Drew Butler and Pitt outside linebacker Brandon Lindsey) singed last week or some of the castoffs from other franchises signed to futures contracts this offseaon (e.g., Williams, former Ohio State star Troy Smith, FSU Rhodes Scholar Myron Rolle) to have strong training camps and push for roster spots.
Considering the recent success of the Steelers' scouting department, do not be surprised if some prospects most fans have not heard of emerge in July and August, ultimately finding their way on the 53-man roster, in part because Pittsburgh currently has more openings for its final spots than any year in nearly a decade. That should make for an interesting training camp.

Jersey Shore
Report: Jersey Shore Producers Tell the Cast That Season 6 Will Be the Final Season
There have been rumors swirling around for months now that Jersey Shore Season 6 will be its last, notably started by Pauly D, who recently said "It's possible."
Now In Touch is reporting that the eight original castmates were given the news that Season 6 is their final season, as soon as they arrived in Seaside Heights to begin filming. According to the report, "An executive producer announced that this season will be the last … She stressed to the cast that fans will remember them for this season, not the first, so they should bring their A game."
On one hand, we wouldn't be surprised if this is true. Ratings for the MTV show have been sliding in recent seasons, and Snooki's pregnancy allegedly angered MTV producers, who were said to be frustrated that they would have to film Snooki living in a separate house, pregnant, and not drinking.
According to In Touch, the amazing eight "decided to make the most of their final days at the Shore" after receiving the news. Which apparently means getting nauseous on rollercoasters, hauling luggage around, and heading to work at the Shore Store!
Catch the premiere of Snooki and JWOWW's new spin-off on Thursday, June 21 on MTV.

A GROUP of unidentified assailants attacked, gang-raped and later beheaded a businesswoman from Kyela in Mbeya Region identified as Ms Neema Mwambinga (44) at a fishing village along Lake Rukwa basin in Mamba ward, Mlele District in Katavi Region.
Katavi Regional Police Commander (RPC), Mr Dhahiri Kidavashari told this paper in a telephone that the incident occurred on December 21, this year at around 11:00 pm at a small fishing camp near Yeye River.
The victim is reported to have arrived in the area to buy fish which she would have then transported back to Kyela in Mbeya Region for the year end festive season. According to police accounts, a group of unknown assailants broke into the house the victim was staying alone and took turns to rape her and after committing the crime, they started beating her before they beheaded her.
Five suspects have thus far been arrested in connection with the incident, but the police commander has declined to reveal their identities as for now. "We have people on ground working on the case but once we get all the important details I will make them public," he said.
Police have said that preliminary investigations have not established whether the suspects stole anything from the victim, but she was found with a huge open wound on her left thigh. Mr Kidavashari noted that it was still too early to establish the motive of the rape and brutal killing, but would not rule out superstitious beliefs which run deep in the area.
Since on the outset the suspects do not seem to have made away with anything of value from the house or the deceased's person, it increases suspicions of superstitious beliefs being involved in the incident.

Taking drops of allergens under the tongue can be an effective alternative to allergy shots for preventing coughing, wheezing and chest tightness common this time of year among allergy sufferers, according to a Johns Hopkins doctor's review of dozens of published studies.
The report, published on the Journal of the American Medical Association's website Wednesday, summarizes 63 studies and makes a case for what is known as sublingual immunotherapy. The treatment is popular in Europe but is less common in the United States. The Food and Drug Administration has not approved any applications from drug makers to use the treatment here.

A sneak peek at the details for J. R. Ward's new series, the Black Dagger Legacy.
The cover and back cover blurb for Blood Kiss, the first book in the Black Dagger Legacy series, has just been unveiled. We've met the heroine's family in The King, but we'll get to meet the hero and heroine in The Shadows.
Paradise, blooded daughter of the king's First Advisor, is ready to break free from the restrictive life of an aristocratic female. Her strategy? Join the Black Dagger Brotherhood's training center program and learn to fight for herself, think for herself…be herself. It's a good plan, until everything goes wrong. The schooling is unfathomably difficult, the other recruits feel more like enemies than allies, and it's very clear that the Brother in charge, Butch O'Neal, a.k.a. the Dhestroyer, is having serious problems in his own life.
And that's before she falls in love with a fellow classmate. Craeg, a common civilian, is nothing her father would ever want for her, but everything she could ask for in a male. As an act of violence threatens to tear apart the entire program, and the erotic pull between them grows irresistible, Paradise is tested in ways she never anticipated — and left wondering whether she's strong enough to claim her own power…on the field, and off.
Booktopia | Bookworld | Amazon US | Book Depository | Kobo | Library
I'm assuming Craeg is pronounced Craig, but don't quote me on that. I'm a little bit lost since neither name contains the letter H. But I think it sounds promising, since the training program is now open to females as well as males and Paradise wants to become more than just your average glymera female, so I think readers may like her more than some of Ward's other heroines.
Blood Kiss will be released in paperback in December.

Once they've found their mate and had their book, the original Brothers have to take a back seat to whoever the next book is about, but like me, Ward also misses the moments with them.
The new Black Dagger Legacy series will focus on the reopening of the training centre and will bring new romances with new characters, but the original BDB will get to play a larger role than they currently do.

JR Ward's official FB page has posted a rough transcript of the Q&A from the signing she held with Karen Marie Moning, which contains spoilers from the Fallen Angels series (including the newly released Immortal) and teasers from the Black Dagger Brotherhood series.
I think the biggest teaser of the night was the back story involving Vishous, Lassiter, Throe (current or his father?) and Throe's sister, which has to do with why other characters can't stand Lassiter. I get the feeling that Throe's sister may have been the 'her' Vishous mentioned when giving Lassiter crap.
Eddie and Adrian have to find Lassiter (Immortal tells us a bit about his place in the angel world). They will get their own books but it will be a while and the BDB has to catch up a couple months to the Fallen Angels world (I'd say this will be at least two books). Lassiter just enjoys pissing people off.
Ward knows who the next two books will be about, but can't say.
We're also getting a teaser of a teaser that she has to 'ease her boss into' before sharing.

The cover and back cover blurb for The Shadows have been revealed! Tentative release date is April 2015. Virtual signing for Immortal opens tonight at 11pm AEST, plus future books by J. R. Ward.

THE SHADOWS by J. R. Ward
Two brothers bound by more than blood fight to change a brutal destiny in the heart-wrenching new novel of the Black Dagger Brotherhood by #1 New York Times bestselling author J. R. Ward.
Trez "Latimer" doesn't really exist. And not just because the identity was created so that a Shadow could function in the underbelly of the human world. Sold by his parents to the Queen of the S'Hisbe as a child, Trez escaped the Territory and has been a pimp and an enforcer in Caldwell, NY for years- all the while on the run from a destiny of sexual servitude. He's never had anyone he could totally rely on… except for his brother, iAm.
iAm's sole goal has always been to keep his brother from self-destructing- and he knows he's failed. It's not until the Chosen Selena enters Trez's life that the male begins to turn things around… but by then it's too late. The pledge to mate the Queen's daughter comes due and there is nowhere to run, nowhere to hide, and no negotiating.
Trapped between his heart and a fate he never volunteered for, Trez must decide whether to endanger himself and others- or forever leave behind the female he's in love with. But then an unimaginable tragedy strikes and changes everything. Staring out over an emotional abyss, Trez must find a reason to go on or risk losing himself and his soul forever. And iAm, in the name of brotherly love, is faced with making the ultimate sacrifice…

A commitment-free way to 'meet' new books!
Galaxy Bookshop will be holding their second ever Book Speed Dating Session from 6pm on Thursday, 10th July! It's similar to traditional speed dating where you get a short amount of time to decide whether you want to get to know someone better, only this time, you'll get to check out some books you may not have noticed. Most of the books offered on the night will be paranormal romances, but they may also introduce you to some possibilities from other genres. If you're looking for something new to read, this is a great, commitment-free way to check out some books you may not have come across previously.

Decadence brings us some exciting news for fans of J. R. Ward!
Yesterday JR Ward announced on Facebook that next year will bring two new series as well as continuing the Black Dagger Brotherhood, but no details on who/what those series will be about. I suspect this may finally show us the wolfyn she hinted at in Lover Unleashed. Also no word whether or not the series will have any links to other books, but I think they will since a hero in one of her earlier romances was friends with Butch O'Neal during childhood, and the Fallen Angels live in the same city as the Brothers.
Immortal will be the final in the Fallen Angels series and its cover and US release date of 7th October, 2014 were recently revealed.
The Boston Globe wrote an article on Ward's journey to bestsellerdom, her most recent event in Cincinnati and gives a broader picture of her as an individual.
Click here for a round-up of BDB-related posts on Book Thingo.
A character-driven story is being forced into a plot-driven approach at the expense of elements that made the earlier books such great reads. But I'm keeping the faith.
An advance reading copy of this book was generously provided by Hachette Australia. If you need to catch up on the world of the Black Dagger Brotherhood, click here to for Decadence's cheat sheets.
On the surface, a return to Wrath and Beth makes The King sound like an extended epilogue to Dark Lover, especially since she wants to have his baby, but it's so much more than that. By the end of Dark Lover, Wrath got the girl and that was it in the HEA (happily ever after) department for him because he had to take up the burden of ruling a people trapped by tradition and facing extinction. Everyone else in the series got their HEA as well as being able to make peace with their demons or had the strain either lifted from them or modified to something they were better equipped to handle. Only Wrath was forced to give up his identity as a fighter and, over the course of the series, we've seen him chafing under worship from his subjects, the boring and monotonous desk job, and attempted coups from the glymera.
The King is a very necessary part of the series. It's also a jam-packed installment of an addictive series, with background on the previous king, resolution of the glymera's coup and Beth's desire for a young, as well as the continuation of another three romantic plots.

The official notes from J. R. Ward's Cincinnati Q & A have been posted on J. R. Ward's Facebook page but beware because there is a crapload of spoilers from The King (my review will be up on Thursday). If you don't have a FB account, here are the highlights.

The next book, called The Shadows, will be about Trez and iAm, who both get some action in this book, and finally (FINALLY!) Murhder returns. Ward knows who the next three books in the series will be about.
Selena's joint problems are caused by a genetic disease of the Chosen, but Ward won't tell us more because then no one would read the book.
s'Ex fathered the Shadow Queen's child.
It would destabilise the world if JM ever found out he was Darius, so Ward doesn't think he'll ever find out (but based on the phrasing of the notes, it's not completely definite either way).
When asked when JM becomes a Brother, Ward explained that the timeline is a weird, variable thing, where one book might span ten days and another takes place over a year, which makes it hard to show other things happening at the same time.
Boo has bonded with iAm, but it's not sexual. We may get to find out what Boo is, and I personally suspect he has a lot in common with Dog from the Fallen Angels.
The next book in the Fallen Angels series, Immortal, will also be its last, but we may see after that how the two worlds intersect.
Lassiter is firmly in the BDB world and him falling in love and discovering his purpose will be the final scene in Immortal.
Xcor and Tohrment are brothers.

J. R. Ward has been very busy on Facebook lately, with updates on the virtual signing for The King as well as quotes.
You can preorder The King, which comes out next week, from the links below. Click here for more BDB cheat sheets and spoilers.
The virtual signing team ordered in record numbers of books and had just about sold out in a day (a friend ordered five minutes after I did and her invoice number was 200 higher than mine and this was only minutes after the signing opened). There was a massive snow storm that affected later orders, and even J. R. Ward took calls on the customer service line. I was tempted to make that international call, but felt that since my book situation was good, I would have wasted her time and kept someone who was trying to order from getting through. Not cool.
Anyway, she periodically posted anecdotes of the characters answering the phone, like V saying, 'I'll tell you when you can order,' before hanging up. But she couldn't resist the opportunity to tease her readers by having Murhder answer the phone. 'Not my problem—yet. But I'm coming…'
Incidentally, international shipping rates have increased substantially, with at least one option to Australia at over $100. I spent an obscene amount on this book, even for a hardcover. But at least the postage is trackable.
Today she announced her new Instagram account at instagram.com/jrwardauthor.
Here are quotes from The King posted so far:

This was very good and easy to make, I used bow tie pasta and left out the shallots. I will make this again and maybe try a different type of pasta next time, just to mix it up.
My son and I liked this recipe very much. I followed the recipe as written but used canned diced tomatoes (drained). Will make again. Thanks for sharing this recipe
I didn't follow the recipe exactly but I just didn't care for the basic foundation.

1. Low shrubs wider
than tall, with main stems trailing along ground,
1. Shrubs or trees,
often taller than wide, >1m, the low shrub forms with
...... 2. Trees with wide spreading branches from trunk; leaves
3. Leaves slightly
keeled in upper third; leaf glands occasionally
Leaves in upper mid region depressed or puckered; impressed glands
Juniperus communis Linnaeus 1753. Common juniper. Low shrub with branches forming mats along ground, wider than tall, < 1 m high; leaves spreading so that an entire leaf is visible, arrowhead in shape. A widely distributed species that might be expected in Kern Co, but not known south of Tuolumne and Madera Cos.
Juniperus californica Carrière 1854. California juniper. Dioecious (98.1%, Adams 2011a), or rarely monoecious (Pacific Crest Trail, 1 mi E of Cameron, pers. obs. Jun 2012, one plant with male cones predominantly with female cones), usually shrubs, or rarely trees, usually with several trunks, branches ascending to erect; leaves awl-shaped, appressed to branches in whorls of 3 although appearing opposite or 4-sided on young twigs, overlapping so that only part of a leaf is visible, usually with a conspicuous glandular depression just below the widest part of leaf; berry-like cones (arcesthida, Spjut 1994) with a reddish brown layer beneath an outer bluish layer. Generally below 5,000 ft, mostly Inner Coast Ranges, Transverse and Peninsular Ranges, desert mountains, to southern Nevada, Arizona, and Baja California including several islands off the Pacific Coast (Cedros, Guadalupe). California juniper woodland recognized in MCV2 when >3% cover over lower shrubs. Type from California without specific location. Kern Co. Common as a multi-stemmed shrub, 487–1,584 m (CCH), occasionally as a tree as observed west of Walker Pass along Hwy 178 in Three Pines Canyon.
Adams (2011) recognized three population groups of California juniper based on terpenoid chemistry: (1) Central Valley, which included a sample from Kern Co. near Bodfish, (2) California Desert, and (3) Arizona Desert.
The morphological distinction between the California juniper and the Utah juniper is not entirely clear despite the distinguishing features mentioned in regard to whorled vs. opposite leaves, conspicuous vs. inconspicuous leaf glands, dioecious vs. monoecious, and tree vs. shrub habit. The conspicuous gland seems to be the best character feature for recognizing California juniper, whereas the keeled midrib on the upper third of the leaf seems best for identifying the Utah juniper. A columnar form, f. lutheyana J. T. Howell & Twisselmann (Four Seasons 2(4): 16 1968), has been recognized from near Kernville and from several miles south of Bodfish.
Juniperus grandis J. P. Adams 2006 [Juniperus occidentalis Hooker 1838. (Type from higher parts of Columbia, base of Rocky Mts.) var. australis (Vasek) A. Holmgren & N. Holmgren 1972; J. occidentalis ssp. australis Vasek 1966]. Sierra juniper, mountain juniper. Dioecious trees with a large trunk; branches wide spreading; leaves similar to preceding except for the gland appearing puckered; berry-like cones bluish black underneath a bluish white layer. Inner North Coast Ranges and Sierra Nevada with a disjunct occurrences in San Bernardino Mts. Type from San Bernardino Mts., Polique Canyon Rd, 0.2 north of North Shore Hwy. Mountain juniper woodland recognized in MCV2 when relative cover is ≥2%. Kern Co.: Owens Peak and its north slopes; 8.9 miles south of Weldon on road to Kelso Valley (P. Raven, 2 May 1958); Scodie Mountains - just northeast of McIvers Spring at the end of FS road 26S35 (Shevock, 24 Jan 1984); 2,011–2,560 m (CCH).
Adams (2006) discovered that the Sierra Nevada plants are not closely related to the western Juniper, which occurs from northern California (including Yolla Bolly Mts.) to Washington and Idaho. This led to a new name for the Sierra Nevada juniper.
Juniperus osteosperma (J. tetragona var. osteosperma Torrey 1857) Little 1938 [J. utahensis Lemmon 1890; J. californica var. utahensis Engelmann 1878]. Utah juniper. Monoecious shrubs or trees, at some locations cones of one sex may predominate on a plant; leaves lacking a conspicuous resinous pit, arranged in opposite pairs (2-ranked); berry-like cones reddish brown underneath a bluish white cover. A common tree or shrub of the Great Basin Desert region, western Nevada, San Gabriel and San Bernardino Mts. Type from near Williams, Coconino Co., AZ. Utah juniper woodland recognized in MCV2 when absolute cover >1% and when pinyon pine and Joshua tree <1%.
Stuart and Sawyer (Trees-shrubs of Calif.) and Sawyer at al. (MCV2) showed the geographical ranges of the species to overlap in southern California. Their morphological distinction is weighted on whether leaves are whorled ("6-ranked," J. californica) or opposite ("4-ranked," JM2, J. osteosperma), whereas Adams (2008) emphasized the crateriform glandular depression on mid part of the leaves and the monoecious vs. dioecious habit (JM2); however, it has been noted by Adams (2008) that 50% of western juniper (J. occidentalis) plants may be dioecious in contrast to 98.1 % for the California juniper, and that sex reversal can occur (Adams 2011a).
Additionally, MCV2 shows a geographical distribution map for the Utah juniper woodland alliance as a narrow band in Kern Co., appearing to occur along the eastern Sierra Nevada south to the Tehachapi Mts., generally described as a "band between the lower desert scrub types and the higher Artemisia tridentata and pinyon-juniper woodlands." CCH lists only one specimen for Kern Co.: reportedly sterile, from south of Highway 178 west of Walker Pass [M. L. Conrad 7231with D. B. Dunn & LeDoux, 5245 ft. (1598.7 m.) 35° 40' 00"N, 118° 02' 00"W (35.667, -118.033, in a small ditch with Pinus monophylla, Artemisia and Joshua tree]. Other CCH specimens of juniper from this general area have been identified California juniper. These may include tree forms in Three Pines Canyon near Cane Brake Creek near where the NY Conrad specimen was reportedly collected (pers. obs. Feb 2011). Junipers in this area all appear to be dioecious (pers. obs. Feb 2012).
A tree photographed by the author (Spjut, presented above) along the Kern River near Kernville with opposite leaves, inconspicuous leaf glands, and fruit of intermediate size between the California and Utah junipers is identified J. osteosperma; however, it may be noted that CCH specimens collected within several miles of Kernville have been identified J. californica.
Molecular studies by Adams (2006) and Adams and Kauffmann (2010) reported the California juniper strongly separated from J. occidentalis, J. osteosperma and J. grandis, based on three samples from desert locations outside Kern County—(1) Victorville and (2) Granite Pass in California, and (3) Yucca, Arizona. They (Adams & Kauffmann 2010) further concluded from other molecular data that populations of the J. osteosperma in the San Bernardino Mts., where sympatric with J. grandis, are indistinct from J. osteosperma in Utah and Nevada, and that populations in the Sierra and Yolla Bolly mountains, regarded as J. grandis, are part of a mosaic complex that is also not distinct from J. osteosperma.
In southwestern Nevada where junipers have been observed in Lovell Canyon in of the Spring Mts. to be predominantly unisexual in which a visual estimate of 99% of thousands of the cones on a plant were either male or female (pers. obs. Feb 2012).

To enable communication between the clients and the Administration Server, the client computers must be connected to the Server. The Network Agent installed on clients provides this functionality.
The following operations require connection to the server:
In most cases, client computers connect to the Server. Automatic synchronization is performed at regular time intervals defined by the Network Agent settings (for example, once every15 (fifteen) minutes). The time interval is set in the policies of the Network Agent on the Settings tab (the Connection period checkbox). Information about an event is sent to the server immediately after the event occurs on a client computer. TCP-port 14000 should be opened on the computer on which the Administration Server is installed for this type of connection.
For example: after installation the Network Agent connects to the Administration Server and transfers the data about the client computer to the Server database.
The second type of connection, when the Server initiates the connection, is also used to retrieve data from client computers – update the lists of applications and tasks running on the client and refresh application statistics. To enable connection, the UDP port 15000 is opened on the client computer. The Server sends a connection query to the client's 15000 UDP port. In response, the server rights to connect to the client are verified (based on a digital signature), and, if the signature is valid, the connection is established.
The administrator can force synchronization to start by clicking the Synchronize command on the shortcut menu of a client computer. In this case, the second type of connection is used.
Sometimes real-time control over the applications on client computers is required, and the Server fails to connect to the client by some reasons (the connection is firewall-protected, ports are blocked on a client, the IP-address is unknown, etc) – then to keep connection between the Server and the Client the administrator can check the Keep connection checkbox in the properties of the client computer. The connection is kept after the checkbox has been checked and the Client has been connected to the Server for the first time.
Data exchange between clients and the Administration Server and connections of the Console to the Administration Server can be secured by SSL protocol (Secure Socket Layer). SSL protocol is responsible for authentication of communicating parities, encryption of the data being transferred, and verification of data integrity. Data integrity ensures that the data has not been corrupted or altered in transit. An SSL-enabled connection involves authentication of both sides of a network communication session and encryption of data using the closed key method. To ensure secure connection between the Client and the Server the 13000 TCP-port should be opened on the Administration Server.
In order the Administration Server would get information about switching off client computers, 13000 UDP-port should be opened on it.
What is Administration Agent? Secure connection with the Administration Server
Release of antivirus database updates (required to protect your computer/server/mobile device)
Providing technical support over phone / web
Release of patches for the application (addressing detected bugs)
System requirements to install the Administration Server are the following:
Administration Server, Console and Agent are fully compatible with

I don't have a whole lot to say at this point about the President's speech on the economy. The campaign saw fit to not send out prepared remarks, and they haven't gotten around to filing a transcript just yet – though I'm told it's coming (UPDATE: here's the full transcript). So I can go off my notes, which don't really have a lot. We basically know the types of policies that Obama prefers: a grand bargain to lower the deficit with higher taxes for the very top of the income scale, health care spending constrained through what he insists will be delivery system reform, greater educational opportunity with subsidized college tuition, protection of priorities like education investment and basic research, a national infrastructure bank, yet also lower federal spending overall, approaching the level of the Eisenhower era. He also thinks that "we can't bring down the debt without a strong and growing economy," puncturing the illusion of an expansionary contraction.
We know, from Obama, what Romney prefers: voucherized Medicare, block grants for Medicaid, slashed federal spending, more defense spending, and tax cuts $5 trillion below simply extending the Bush tax cuts.
And then, Obama says that the public will have to settle this debate from these two competing visions. "In this democracy, you, the people, have the final say," he said. Only it never works this way. It never really has worked this way. In this democracy, money and power have traditionally had the final say, regardless of what the people wanted. First of all, in the modern era, as long as you have 41 Senators of the opposite party, a trifle like an election will not guarantee the passage of any one party's agenda. But going deeper than that, what we've seen over the last decade is that some agenda items will pass regardless of public opinion, and some will not. And here, that filibuster threat just melts away. If the government wants to indemnify telecommunications companies who cooperated on spying on US citizens, divided government will not be a barrier. If Wall Street wants to return to the days of penny stocks and gut investor protections, divided government will not be a barrier. If corporate welfare is needed, the 60 vote threshold is not. If politicians want to go to war – or maybe it's the contractors who start it off – that can happen, with or without Congress at all, apparently.
In fiscal terms, this idea that the people have the final say should be the standard, but it really has not been in recent years. Budget reconciliation was used on the Bush tax cuts, but not on any straight fiscal measures in the Obama Administration (only as a means to finish off the health care law). Moreover, there are plenty of issues outside the purview of Congress, like on housing or regulatory policy against the banks, where the Administration has not used its power.
So when the President says that "this election is about our economic future," when he says that "this election is your chance to break that stalemate" between two fundamentally different ideas, he makes it sound far more simple than reality. And we can see that reflected in the last four years while he was in office.

It always amazes me that government spends so much money on essential services that it doesn't have money for essential services. Take sidewalks in Bedford, for example.
This upcoming school year the Bedford County Public School System is going to save 22,000 gallons of gas by adjusting parking locations for school buses.
That's 22,000 gallons, some $80,000 or more worth of savings.
In recent months, we have heard about speculators being one of the things that has driven up the price of oil on the world market, resulting in higher gasoline prices in the United States. To address unbridled speculation, the House of Representatives has passed a bill called the Energy Markets Emergency Act. This bill passed 402-to-19; I voted for it.
Understanding domestic
For the past seven years I have been an advocate for domestic violence services and I have been in awe of the outstanding community support given to the domestic violence services by churches, businesses, law enforcement and the people of Bedford City and Bedford County. I believe the stories of how the staff of BDVS and the community of Bedford as well as surrounding communities have helped women and their children need to be told.
Recently I was privileged to once again be a part of a congressional delegation to Iraq and Afghanistan to see firsthand the effort being made in the war on terrorism, to meet with members of the U.S. Armed Services serving in that troubled part of the world, and to ask tough questions of our military and civilian leaders about the progress being made. I returned with an even greater appreciation for the job they are doing and with optimism about our prospects for success and our ability to bring more troops home soon.
I have to say I was somewhat astonished that my colleague to the left of me here came out recently and downright rejected George W. Bush and much of his presidency.
I'm referring to Dr. John Barnhart, who of course is to the left of me only in the layout of this page. As he himself would be quick to state, he's to the right of me in every other way.
Dr. James Dobson was absolutely correct when he criticized Barack Obama for distorting the traditional Christian understanding of the Bible in a speech Obama gave last month.

Hello Fashion Lovers,
It looks like it's that time of the year again where we can finally break out our favorite holiday dresses and winter themed outfits! Instead of wandering around last minute to find a perfect dress for the upcoming special occasions, the new brand Black Swan, has made the holiday season a much easier one to get ready for. You'll definitely find me wearing the emerging new brand on Thanksgiving and at Christmas parties! They quickly and easily became one of my favorite brands since their clothes are beautifully made with such a fun, unique style! I especially love all of the different textures and prints that Black Swan uses in their designs. It really makes every piece different and interesting! You'll be sure to stand out this season. Right now the brand is so new that it is hard to come across, but lucky for you, I found out it's now available at Nordstrom department stores and I'm sure you can find them at a few other boutiques and shops. Be sure to check out the Black Swan dresses that I've been eying below and let me know what you think of this amazing new brand!
Finnona Foiled Chiffon Shift Dress | Glow Embellished Velvet Silk Dress

The big-boned Chouji is a pupil of Asuma and a teammate of Shikamaru and Ino. Chouji spends most of his time eating, thinking about eating, and resting. He has pretty funny jutsus like the meat tank, where he triples his size and transforms himself into a huge spinning ball. And then uses his chakra to roll the ball in all directions.
He isn't really motivated to fight or do anything for that matter. The only way to get him to fight or help is to reward him with food. But when people call him chubby, fatty, etc. / mock his weight, he gets pissed off, and won't hold back. Since he's part of the Akimichi clan who specializes in body enlargement jutsu, he can also use the clan's food pills to increase his power tremendously, but that way he is putting a heavy strain on the body. Chouji is someone who is, but mustn't be underestimated.

Oh man. That is beyond awesome. It's ludicrous, even. As in the quote from the great pontificator Iron Mike Tyson himself, "It's ludicrous these mortals even attempt to enter my realm." But that's what Katie Couric attempted to do, and from the looks of it, she made it out the other side. The one and only Mike Tyson stopped by Katie Couric's daytime show gabfest on Thursday to discuss his recent guest role on an episode of Law & Order: Special Victims Unit. Tyson portrayed an imprisoned rape victim and Total Pro Sports has a great rundown on what Tyson had to say. Yet for the purposes set forth here, allow me to state that I'm simply in awe of this wonderful photo that was taken of these two people from completely disparate planes of existence. It's brilliant. But despite the differing backgrounds, lifestyles and opinions on facial tattoos, Katie Couric and Mike Tyson appear to share a decent rapport with one another, despite Iron Mike hamming it up for the camera. In fact, I could see these two fading into Bolivian together. TweetThe post Mike Tyson posed for a pic with Katie Couric and the results? Fantastic (photo) appeared first on Sportress of Blogitude.

According to TSN employee and former Red Wing Aaron Ward, the Detroit Red Wings are now out on Shane Doan. He says that the asking price was too high and the Wings have backed out. All indications Detroit #RedWings out of Shane Doan sweepstakes.Asking price too high. #NHL #TSN — Aaron Ward (@aaronward_nhl) July 26, 2012 This just adds to a laundry list of failures for Ken Holland and the Wings this off-season. First, Parise and Suter signed with the Minnesota Wild. Then, Rick Nash was traded to New York and Shea Weber resigned with Nashville. And today, Alex Semin signed with the Carolina Hurricanes and Shane Doan asked for too much money. This summer has raised far more questions about the Wings future than in previous years. Where do the Wings go from here? And how much longer until Ken Holland is officially on the hot seat?

This long sleeve tunic has a wide scoop neckline that features a lace and beaded panel.

*Machine Wash Cold
*Machine Wash Cold
Rated 4.1 out of 5Â by 16 reviewers.
Rated 3 out of 5Â by FPAvaJune Beautiful, but weird fit I was very excited when we received this at our store, however was left disappointed after trying it on. While the quality is wonderful, the beading gorgeous, and the fabric is soft and comfy, the fit was unflattering on me. While I normally wear a small/medium in FP tops I had to size up to a large to account for the boxy tight shape. The tunic still clung tight to my hips, and was almost to my knees, but was way to big in the arms and body. For reference I'm 5'6 and usually wear a 39/8 in jeans. I would not recommend this to anyone who is pear shaped. 10.23.2013
Rated 4 out of 5Â by mrjones nice top Received this top today and I really like it. It's a good fit, nice and long to wear with leggings and layer. It hangs nicely, the only negative I have is the colour. I like the colour in the main photo more than the actual colour [the studio shots]. It is just a bit drab so will need some added colour to liven it up. 11.19.2013
Rated 5 out of 5Â by Victoirelover Sooo beautiful Such a beautiful tunic, I love the beading so much. 10.14.2013
Rated 4 out of 5Â by ElisabethH beige beauty Ordered my usual small (5'6", 130 lbs) in beige. The neckline is a little wide so prepare for some shoulder baring action Flashdance style (of the prestigious dance school not exotic dancer variety). The detailing is beautiful and infuses this tunic with understated elegance. 3.21.2014
Rated 5 out of 5Â by MaddieAziz Dress to Impress I bought this tunic in-store, and actually thought it was a dress. I'm pretty short, and it's long enough, so that's what I wear it as. The cut of this garment is so flattering, in my opinion. It's sexy without being revealing or form-fitting in the wrong places. The quality of the fabric and how the tunic is made is also very high. Overall, I really love the beige color I purchased and am considering buying another color in the near future. 2.18.2014
Rated 4 out of 5Â by freepslover Love! My sister and I both bought this in store the other day. It was a great buy and its actually long enough to wear with tights or leggings! It is actually very unique in person but i would recommend sizing down because its a bit baggy. 1.3.2014
Rated 5 out of 5Â by WarriorWings Favorite! This is one of my favorite items from FB that I've purchased recently. It's soft and super comfy and the back is long enough even for my tall frame to wear just with leggings or tights. I love it and wear it about once a week! 12.30.2013
Rated 1 out of 5Â by olgabartnicki Boring Too predictable, not interesting. 12.18.2013

Health officials in Saudi Arabia over the weekend advised people visiting holy sites as part of this year's Hajj or Moslem pilgrimage to wear masks in crowded places to stop the spread of the MERS coronavirus. The authorities warned that they will not issue visas to the elderly and people with chronic diseases in a bid to prevent the spread of the virus, BBC said.
A list of requirements issued by the Health Ministry on Saturday, July 13, 2013 also advises elderly people or those with chronic diseases to postpone their pilgrimage as 38 people have so far died in the kingdom from the virus since last September. The official did not however set an age limit for those to be considered as elderly.
Health officials urged pilgrims to maintain personal hygiene, use tissue paper when sneezing and coughing, and get the necessary vaccinations. MERS (the Middle East Respiratory Syndrome) or coronavirus, emerged in the Arabian Peninsula in September 2012 and is part of a large family of viruses that includes common cold and SARS (Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome).
The World Health Organisation, WHO, has so far confirmed a total of 80 cases of MERS infection worldwide, including 45 deaths, SAPA news agency said. The strain of coronavirus, called MERS-CoV, was first discovered in 2012 in a man in Saudi Arabia. France, Jordan, Qatar, the United Arab Emirates, Germany, Tunisia and Britain, have also reported infections, the FARS news agency reported.
The new health restrictions are applicable to the upcoming Hajj pilgrimage to Mecca in October and subsequent minor pilgrimages, Health Ministry spokesman, Khalid al-Mirghalani, told the Saudi newspaper Arab News. Moslems also travel to the site at other times, as well as visiting the Masjid Al-Nabawi, or Mosque of the Prophet, in Medina. Millions of Moslems flock every year to holy sites in Saudi Arabia to perform the Haj, making it one of the world's biggest annual gatherings.

Album Notes and Credits
Notes & Personnel Info
|Audio Mixer: Adrian Younge.
|Wu-Tang rapper Ghostface Killah is no stranger to the concept album, having just dropped the R&B pillow-talk effort Ghostdini the Wizard of Poetry in Emerald City in 2009, but Twelve Reasons to Die is something bigger, and better. Produced entirely by film composer Adrian Younge, this creepy cool effort is a comic book on wax that relates to a real series of comic books released by executive producer RZA's Soul Temple imprint. On top of that, it's influenced heavily by the Italian murder mystery/slasher film genre known as giallo, where everything is smoky, sinister, and '70s, and while that may sound complicated, overwrought, and insider, the end product is none of the above. Like Younge's work on the Black Dynamite soundtrack, this period piece overflows with love and respect for its influencing genre. An autoharp and the sound of rain falling introduce "An Unexpected Call (The Set Up)," where no one knows what's lurking around the corner, while the closing title track seems ripped right out of some Dario Argento end credit sequence with rickety piano, wobbly string section, and echoing, earnest narration all painting a dreadful picture. Speaking of earnest, Ghostface is lyrically committed to the album's vision and keeps his tongue in cheek without ever overtly winking at the audience, offering "I never lose battles/Pimp bitches with a superhero logo on my chest/Big Gucci link, JFK on the crest" during the key cut "The Sure Shot, Pts. 1-2," while "Was an evil day, the sun glistened over the city/Shine bright in the window in the eyes of my kitty" is the vivid picture painting he does through his Tony Stark character elsewhere. Pushing the story forward doesn't trump the inspiration, and while the album is best listened to in one go, these strong cuts could easily be parceled out for any career-spanning Ghostface mixtape, plus Younge must love the Wu as much as he loves composer Ennio Morricone, judging from some of the banging beats he lays underneath along with the general production haziness that recalls RZA. It's short and limited, but it's well crafted and strong, and a worthy alternative to RZA's Man with the Iron Fists soundtrack done with some wild, Wallabee Kingpin spin. ~ David Jeffries

SUNRISE FC thrashed Kirehe 4-0 in the second division league on Sunday to boost their hopes of gaining promotion to the top flight division at the first time of asking.
The win took the Rwamagana based side, formed only this season, top of group A thanks to goals from Salenda, who scored two, and Patrick and Eric Irambona strikes.
Abdul Mbarushimana's team has now won three and lost one of their four matches played in their debut season albeit with one match in hand against National University of Rwanda, which will be played on Wednesday.
Those wins came against Rwamagana 3-0, Sec Academy 1-0 and Gasabo 2-0, while losing to Gicumbi 2-0.

Jay-Z is writing the score for Baz Luhrmann's 'The Great Gatsby'
Baz Luhrmann has got a great collaborator for "The Great Gatsby": Jay-Z. The Bullitts, a producer/songwriter who frequently works with Jay-Z, revealed on Twitter that they'll be scoring the upcoming F. Scott Fitzgerald adaptation.
"Jay-Z and myself have been working tirelessly on the score for the upcoming #CLASSIC The Great Gatsby!" The Bullitts tweeted. "It is too DOPE for words!"
That explains why Jay-z's song with Kanye West, "No Church in the Wild," is featured in the movie's trailer. Luhrmann is known for his great use of music in his films (just rewatch "Moulin Rouge"), so it's really exciting to learn that such a talented producer is working on this movie's score. "The Great Gatsby" stars Leonardo DiCaprio, Tobey Maguire and Carey Mulligan and is due out on May 10.

Moving people from their comfort zone to a win-win business relationship It happened when you least expected it. You became a salesperson! You not only design beautiful handcrafted jewelry, you have the opportunity to recruit people who will help you share your art with the world. You need simply to find them, create a successful environment for them, and help them succeed. After all, this is a win-win strategy.
When you sell at jewelry parties, you will share a portion of the revenue with the host. This can be accomplished through percentages of sales; i.e. $1000 worth of sales = $200 to the host, and $800 to you, or you can gift your host with jewelry. Of course, for you, the profit margins are better with gifting. However, in this case, you want to offer the kinds of incentives that motivate hosts to work with you, and the small profit you save may not be worth losing the 20 sales you make.
It Begins With Your Mindset
You will need to decide how many parties you would like to do a month. Are you game for once a week or once a month? Whatever your goal, you need to be clear with yourself about it, and follow up on all leads that come your way. Once you have a few parties, you can work with a warm market; people who are familiar with your work and the party idea. The key is in the follow up!
You might want to set a specific time of day that you spend making contact with people. Make it your goal to contact a consistent number of people a day or a week, and make the calls when you are in your best energy. If you are a morning person, call first thing! Get yourself into action before you talk yourself into procrastination.
Dont be Afraid to Share the Wealth
Of course, when you are starting a business, the last thing you really want to do is share the profits. You need every penny you can get. But in reality, you can have a lot more pennies by rewarding the people who help you.
As mentioned above, you want to share your profits strategically with your hosts. It is their job to invite people, provide the refreshments, set up the seating etc. They work with you for your mutual success.
You can decide to:
1. Reward your host with a percentage of your sales in cash.
2. Reward your host with a percentage of sales in product.
3. You can create a mix of numbers 1 and 2 by graduating the reward.
Let.s say, for the first $500 in sales you give 20% to your host in jewelry. That means you gift them with $100 of jewelry at retail cost or less than $50 at your cost. From $501-$1000 you gift for the first $500 in jewelry and the second $500 in cash. For sales at $1500, offer gift certificates that the host can use within a year from the date of the party.
4. You can reward your host for parties booked at the party.
5. You can reward your host for parties booked at any time from people who were at their party.
6. You can go so far as second tier rewards. Reward the host with 20% either in cash or merchandise, and the honoring host (who gave the party where this host attended and decided to have a party) another 10% of sales. Now you have these two possible friends working together to create success for you, and them- selves. It is win-win strategy.
Although you are in a direct selling business, you may want to visit a few of the Multi- Level Marketing company websites for more tips on arranging successful home parties.
But for the jewelry business, I strongly recommend Jewelry Party Book. Lorrie Ely leaves no stone unturned when it come to planning a party, preparing stock, booking with new hostesses, recruiting repeat business and having fun while you do it.
Lorrie includes several charts and templates on incentives that show you how to increase sales at the party, through sharing the profits. Much like I mentioned, Lorrie digs in and shares the win-win strategy.
Think of your party host as advertisements that go direct to would-be buyers: his or her friends. Treat them right, and they will help you launch and continue to feed your growing business.
Our next chapter deals with a testy subject: how do we get people to GO to your host.s party? (Secret: it.s the WIIFM again: What.s In It For Me?)

I believe I can flaaay...
I seriously thought something was wrong with my GPU drivers when I saw that. 'course after that, there were cops on all four walls, then the cop 'pyramid' and 'tornado'... You're right to an extent that at times, it does appear you're on a acid trip while playing this game.
Also, **** the police. That is all. Really hate the freakin' concrete bricks (SWAT vehicles) that knock you out on the slightest hit. I do find it funny that it's actually a milestone to get busted six times. I was still on the mindset of the original Most Wanted of three strikes, and it's game over (though said strikes are easily avoidable by ALT+F4'ing out of the game).
The damage system in this game is a bit odd. Your car can get incredibly mangled but it never goes out of commission? In that case, I guess the damage resistance you get from a reinforced chassis is to increase the amount of head-on smashing you can do before the slightest knock results in a crash cutscene.

All of the native bat species in Greater Yellowstone are insectivores. A single little brown bat (Myotis lucifugus, the most common species) can consume 1,200 mosquito-sized insects in an hour. The distribution of bats is usually concentrated near sources of food, water, and roosting structures. They roost in natural habitats, including thermally heated caves, as well as in bridges, buildings, abandoned mines, and other man-made structures, which can lead to conflicts with human use and preservation of historical sites.
