The Secret Genius Of Taylor Swift
Originally published on Mon November 12, 2012 8:14 am
Taylor Swift's new album, Red, sold more 1.2 million copies in its first week — the highest first-week sales total for an album in over a decade. She did it partly by answering a surprisingly complicated question: What's the best way to sell an album?
There are so many ways to release your music these days. You can sell it at Amazon, iTunes, Wal-Mart, and Starbucks. You can release it to streaming sites like Spotify. You can go on tour.
Each artist chooses a mix of tools from this toolbox. And choosing the right mix can help an artist make money — something that's hard to do in an era when it's so easy to get free music.
Taylor Swift picked expertly. As Paul Resnikoff, editor and founder of Digital Music News points out, she has chosen from the toolbox only the outlets that would give her the most money for every album sold: Outlets that pushed a full album purchase.
The first week her album came out, you could only get it in a few key places: i-tunes, Walgreens, Wal-Mart, Target. You could order a Papa Johns pizza and receive the CD — at the sticker price of around 14 bucks.
But the tools Swift didn't use are as important than the ones she did. By refusing to release her singles on Spotify, or any other streaming site, she pushed her fans to buy the album. Spotify pays the artist pennies on the dollar. Taylor Swift skipped it.
"Taylor already has so many fans, that she doesn't need to have that, like, incentive," 16-year-old superfan Lindsey Feinstein says. "Like, 'Oh, listen to this, and then you'll buy it.' She's past that level."
Streaming music is more like an advertisement for the artist. It's a process of music discovery, not necessarily music fandom. You build brand loyalty to the artist through streaming. Taylor Swift does not have a problem with brand loyalty. As Lindsey says, she's past that.
Who sells a lot of albums these days? She does.
TAYLOR SWIFT: (Singing) We are never, ever, ever getting back together. We...
MONTAGNE: Yes, that's Taylor Swift. She sold more than a million copies of her new album in the first week of its release. That kind of figure used to be unremarkable in the music business. Today, it's almost unheard of. And the way Taylor Swift pulled it off is also very rare. Zoe Chace from our Planet Money team explains.
ZOE CHACE, BYLINE: Meet someone behind the blockbuster success of Taylor Swift.
LINDSEY FEINSTEIN: My name is Lindsey Feinstein. I'm 17 years old. I'm a senior in high school and I'm a huge Taylor Swift fan. She's just so nice. I mean. Her music is amazing and it's, sort of, all I listen to.
CHACE: Fans like Lindsey spend money on something unusual, for a 17-year-old.
FEINSTEIN: All the CDs are over there.
CHACE: Those are the only CDs that you appear to have.
FEINSTEIN: I have hers because I want them when I'm older, to show my kids that CDs were a thing.
CHACE: CDs are a thing these days only when it comes to the likes of Taylor Swift. There are so many ways to release your music right now - iTunes, Amazon, radio, Wal-Mart, Starbucks, concerts, streaming sites like Spotify, Rdio. Each artist picks from this toolbox in pursuit of one thing - making money. Something that is very hard to do when it's so easy to get music for free right now. And Taylor Swift picked expertly. The strategy for releasing this album was maybe the best ever.
SWIFT: Like ever.
CHACE: She has picked, off the shelf, only the outlets that would give her the most money for every album sold.
FEINSTEIN: So iTunes, clearly. And then Target has this deluxe edition. Wal-Mart has it. She has this new thing with Walgreens.
FEINSTEIN: Papa Johns. This is a new thing. You can order a Taylor Swift pizza box and with it comes the album.
SWIFT: (Singing) This time, I'm telling you, I'm telling you, we are never, ever...
CHACE: I called another Taylor Swift expert, the editor of Digital Music News, Paul Resnikoff. He confirmed everything the 17-year-old said.
PAUL RESNIKOFF: They have to have it.
CHACE: But the tools Taylor Swift didn't choose are almost savvier than the ones she did. To be the first one at school to hear the new album, you had to pay full price for the privilege. Because Taylor Swift did not release her singles on Spotify or any other streaming site. Spotify pays pennies on the dollar. Taylor Swift skipped it.
RESNIKOFF: It doesn't necessarily make sense to release something on Spotify, because...
CHACE: You know what? We'll just let Lindsey take this one.
FEINSTEIN: Taylor already has so many fans that she doesn't need to have that, like, incentive, like, oh, listen to this and then you'll like it and then you'll buy it. I feel like she's past that level. People will literally just buy it.
CHACE: Streaming music is more like an advertisement for the artist. Streaming is a process of music discovery, not necessarily music fandom. You build brand loyalty to the artist through streaming. Taylor Swift does not have a problem with brand loyalty.
FEINSTEIN: She's kind of past that.
CHACE: So most people, when they bought the album that first week, had to pay full price. That is so rare these days. I asked Lindsey what song should we go out on.
FEINSTEIN: I think we should go out with "22," because it's fun. And everyone will like. It's everyone's, like, song from the album.
SWIFT: (Singing) Oh, oh, I don't know about you, but I'm feeling 22.
CHACE: A big part of Taylor Swift's genius is knowing exactly what 17-year-old girls want to hear.
Zoe Chace, NPR News.
SWIFT: (Singing) Everything will be all right. We just keep dancing like we're 22.

Thank you to the person that left and forgot about their beautiful Raleigh in front of the State Hall and gave me the opportunity to compose this Instructable.
This bike is in the middle of restoration using a sandblaster and powder coating hood at my local hackerspace, TechShop. "I made it at TechShop"
Step 1: Step one: Acquire a bicycle, and Strip all components.
Step 2: Step Two: Strip the Paint off of your Bike Frame and Fork
In case your missed anything here is another Instructable to reference to.
Step 3: Step Three: Ghetto Blast that top coat!
Depending on stubborn the paint is, multiple passes may be necessary in the sand blaster.
There you have it the frame and fork are now ready to be powder coated and outfitted with new hardware (part 2 and part 3, coming soon)

What breed do you think my horse is?
3 Attachment(s)
Hey guys! My horse, Thomas is a rescue. So, I don't know what breed he is.. We have some ideas but aren't for sure. Anyways, I'd love to know what you guys think! Some other details about him: 5 years old, Rescued at 22 months, does jumping, barrel racing, trails, etc. and he has very hairy legs with feather at his fetlocks but we shave them for showing, Texas heat and such.
Neck and withers kind of remind me of a belgium cross...? super cute... how tall is he? :)
Thank you! (: He is only 15 hands I forgot to add!
Oh, haha maybe not a belgium then lol :P
The first thing that popped into my head was draft/ tb cross. Maybe Belgian/tb.
I too can see possible Belgian, and/or maybe some Hanoverian. (But I'm no expert since I don't own a horse. Just a guess from someone who knows nothing- *eyeroll*)
But the word "warmblood" keeps popping up in the back of my mind for some reason.
Thanks for the reply! Being 15 hands I'm not sure he has Belgian in him, but it could always be a possibility, just not sure! (:
I think it might be a hanovarian/tb or an iberian/tb mix. Those breeds just come to mind by it's height and general body style, and just by it's pictures it's head has that typical iberian slope.:D
Draft crosses can be any size, they don't necessarily take after draft height.
I know a Belgian/tb cross just exactly like yours, just about 15hands :)

Slater, Barefoot, Weick win seats on Indian River Shores Town Council
The following is a breakdown of the votes for each candidate. Votes include absentee and provisional ballots:
Chuck Wurmstedt: 339 votes, 11.13 percent
Brian Barefoot: 994 votes, 32.65 percent
Tom Slater: 998 votes, 32.78 percent
Mike Ochsner: 338 votes, 11.1 percent
Gerard (Jerry) Weick: 375 votes, 12.31 percent
INDIAN RIVER SHORES — Indian River Shores voters Tuesday overwhelmingly chose two newcomers to the Town Council and brought back one incumbent.
Newcomers Tom Slater and Brian Barefoot, both John's Island residents, were the top vote-getters in the five-candidate race for three unpaid seats on the council. The third seat went to incumbent Gerard (Jerry) Weick.
Council member Fran Atchison was ineligible to run for a third consecutive term.
Slater said he stood outside the town polling site for two hours, recognizing most of the people casting ballots. Most of his efforts were done online, through emails to friends, he said.
Slater, a John's Island resident, is the retired chief executive officer of an automotive electronics company. He currently is chairman of a family-owned business called Takoda.
"I think there are a number of things we can do (for the town)," he said. "We have to be smart and take a good solid approach to things. The town is in pretty good shape."
Barefoot, the retired president of Babson College in Massachusetts, said voters may have liked his finance and business experience.
"I can help the Shores continue to be the town we all love to live in," said Barefoot. Barefoot said it was "humbling" to hear that so many people had confidence in him.
Weick, the current vice mayor who has been on the council since 2009, said he was pleased to see so many turn out to vote.
"It shows a lot of interest in this town," he said. Weick said he ran on the slogan of "maintain the balance."
"I think that's what we achieved," he said. Weick said all five were good candidates.
"This town is going to remain as good as it has been," he said.
Ochsner said he was disappointed, but that all three of the candidates elected were good people and would be good for the town.
"I had four years. I thought it was a good run. I added value to the council, and they will add value," he said.
Wurmstedt, a John's Island resident who previously served on the council from 1993 to 2001, said he didn't feel bad about not winning.
"I think I gave a run for it. I tried," he said.

The top ten Wii games are not too surprising, including stuff like Wii Sports, Wii Play, Wii Fit, Brawl, and other big Nintendo franchises. The only third-party game on the list is Mario and Sonic at the Olympic Games, which, of course, is a Mario game!
But the bottom ten is a lot more entertaining, revealing, for example, that poor Opoona sold only 5,000 copies, as did Dewy's Adventure. D3's motivation for putting their Simple games on WiiWare is made clear by the fact that their disc-based releases totally bombed. Though not as badly as Hudson's Puzzle Series Vol. 1 Sudoku, which apparently sold 482 copies total.
It's hard to pick interesting tidbits out of the middle of the list (which we won't reproduce after the break in the interest of brevity) but apparently No More Heroes sold just 27,873 copies -- much less than the 84,224 copies of Mysterious Dungeon: Shiren the Wanderer 3 that went out!
Top Ten
- Wii Sports (3.2m)
- Wii Fit (2.8m)
- Wii Play (2.5m)
- Mario Kart Wii (1.9m)
- Super Smash Bros. Brawl (1.7m)
- Mario Party 8 (1.2 m)
- Super Mario Galaxy (932,119)
- Animal Crossing: City Folk (727,555)
- WarioWare: Smooth Moves (605,479)
- Mario and Sonic at the Olympic Games (590,265)

This just in. FOX news channel has just been caught in a blatant attempt to distort the perception of the 2011 CPAC Straw Poll results. On the February 15th broadcast of America's Newsroom Fox Reported the results of the win. when they opened the report they played the recording of the 2010 results rather than the actual 2011 recording. A clear difference is seen in the crowd reaction and in the attire worn by Tony Fabrizio who read the results to the audience.
The crowd reaction was remarkably different even though Ron Paul won in both cases. In the 2010 recording you could hear more booing and groaning from the audience [FOX CLIP] Now in the 2011 recording you can hear a truly excited crowd. [CPAC CLIP]
This is a clear attempt to persuade America that Ron Paul is not accepted by the majority even though he truly is.
Fox is no stranger to minimalizing Ron Paul's wins. During the 2008 Presidential Election, Fox ignored their own polling data from text Message polling and online Polls where Ron Paul was the clear winner. This, however, is the first time they have been caught SWAPING footage in an attempt to sway public opinion of a Presidential contender.
The first shot of the 2012 election season has been fired by the spin masters at FOX news against Ron Paul and it is time for you to act now and demand a full retraction, explanation, and apology for the false reporting.
Call FOX news by
Phone: (212) 301-3000
Fax: (212) 301-4229
Judge Napolitano one of the only true advocates for Freedom and Liberty at the fox news channel needs to be contacted too. Contact Judge Napolitano and demand that he expose the FOX network. How the Judge reacts to this will be a true test of his allegiance to to Ron Paul.
Contact the judge via email at:
Or on his facebook page @
Or on his twitter page

That could have been me. Or you.
(source)He's ok. My friend's husband is going to pull through, but for a while there, it was very uncertain exactly what was going to be happening. He is still drugged up on meds, and hasn't fully become lucid yet, but he is on the mend. They still have a rough time ahead of them, working through the healing process. And during those times, a lot runs through your head. And not a lot, at the same time.
(more after the break)
It's so easy to get caught up in the whirl of life. What to get at the grocery store. What to make for dinner when you get home from work. Complaining about work. Complaining about school. Studying for school. Getting into disagreements with spouses. Wanting things your own way. Complaining some more (even in your mind). Going here, going there. And doing this all over again the next day. Guilty as charged.
I think our culture today almost tries to force us not to think about anything in the future besides what we'll wear, where we'll go or how much money we could make. It's everywhere. Commercials are all about us buying stuff. Everywhere we look we're supposed to want want want. Do you ever stop to really truly think about where the universe *came* from? Do you ever think about what comes after? Let me just tell you that the shopping and eating and rushing stops. :)
It's days like these that make me truly realize what a blessing it is to know exactly where I'm going when I die. That it's not just blackness afterwards. That it's something I don't want to think about. I love thinking about it. And when you're anticipating what comes after, and it's going to be a glorious thing: heaven; it's not morbid at all! I'm so glad that I made that purposeful choice to follow my God and Saviour, Jesus. Alistair Begg's message on the radio a few days ago really summed it up. He said in no few words that it's not the goodness of the person, the greatness of their gifts, nor the elaborate way that they profess faith in Jesus that makes the markings of a true disciple of God. Will there be failings? Yes! Will there be stumbles and bumps along the way? Of course! But it's the difference of their lives from then to now that will ultimately verify their choice to follow God.
Do you ever stop to think where you'd go, if one night you never woke up?

As with most remembrances of things past, nostalgia outpaced reality. (Same damn thing happened with Thick as a Brick. I played the hell out of it when I was a kid. Then, years later, I bought it on CD. The CD was 43 minutes and 44 seconds long. I lasted precisely fifteen of those minutes before hitting the proverbial brick wall and putting the disc away for good.)
My first meal at Llywelyn's in I-don't-know-how-many years and the rarebit was grainy. That's what happens when cheese sauce spends too much time on the back burner. Not only that, but the pub's famous Welsh chips -- unpeeled potatoes, thinly sliced and deep-fried, perfect with a dash of malt vinegar -- arrived a darker brown than the golden hue served up by my memory. These are the hallmarks of an established restaurant that has grown tired, or one that has spread itself too thin.

17 West Moody Avenue, Webster Groves, 314-962-1515.
318 Westport Plaza, Maryland
Heights, 314-317-9009.
Call individual locations for hours.
But before jumping to any conclusions, I resolved to give Llywelyn's -- in all three of its current locations -- a thorough test spin.
A little background: Jack Brangle and John Dressel introduced Llywelyn's on McPherson back in 1975. Not long afterward Dressel backed out of the partnership and opened his own namesake pub around the corner on Euclid. Then, in 1997, Brangle sold Llywelyn's to a trio of investors (their motto: "Established in 1975, reestablished in 1997"). The new owners, Chris Marshall, Scott Kemper and Brett Bennett, augmented the menu with new entrées and proceeded to branch out, first to Westport Plaza and then, last year, to Webster Groves.
The opening in 2000 of a west-county Llywelyn's surprised and dismayed many hardcore patrons of the Central West End original. This new rendition, sequestered in the unlikely, contrived environs of Westport Plaza and its nearly two dozen bars and restaurants (four of which have "pub" in their name), caters mostly to yuppyish bar hoppers and hotel guests. It's smaller than its two siblings, though just as warm and woody. With a Saturday opening time of 5 p.m. and no Sunday hours, the Westport Llywelyn's is clearly geared toward a drinking crowd. Right on the front of the menu, diners are warned not to expect the same selections that are offered on McPherson, owing to the diminutive size of the kitchen here. That also presumably explains why food is served only until 9 p.m. Forget the mini-burgers (though, oddly, you can get one big one) and the desserts (unless they're feeling effusive and have some cheesecake on hand). Still, when it's not crammed with boisterous revelers, the Westport Llywelyn's proved to be a fine spot to enjoy a bowl of white chili: thick, smooth and creamy. And that aforementioned burger, which is excellent when topped with rarebit sauce and crisp fried onions.
The newest Llywelyn's, a block north of the Lockwood/Elm Avenue nexus in Webster Groves, debuted in September. Building a restaurant in a cavernous space that once was home to a bowling alley (and later a machine shop) has advantages and drawbacks. A half-wall partition separates the bar from the dining area, but the high ceiling causes everything to reverberate, and on a packed weekend evening "everything" includes large families, rogue children, noisy drinkers and live music. (If it's a nice night, better to sit outside.) On the plus side, it's a very cool-looking space. Co-owner Kemper built the huge front bar himself to match the century-old back bar, rescued from Gaslight Square.
It was here that I found the rarebit I remembered -- smooth and creamy, trumped up with the addition of bacon bits, tomato and fried onions and ladled over four grilled wedges of Texas toast. I also discovered pub pickles: battered and deep-fried dill spears that are surprisingly tasty, especially when accompanied by a pint of Smithwick's Irish ale. Tuna, basted with a teriyaki-lime mixture, was fresh and arrived as rare as I ordered it, with a side of wild rice and sautéed vegetables. Though the menu specified "roasted" vegetables, at $10.50 this was a good deal regardless.
The popular Irish stew and shepherd's pie entrées were likewise satisfying. For the stew, lamb is simmered in a stock spiked with Guinness stout and Jameson's Irish whiskey till it really does melt in your mouth. The pie was composed of a thick slab of moist, flavorful meat loaf, layered with a thick spread of garlic mashed potatoes and then doused with a mushroom-sherry sauce.

Duke basketball coaches and divers featured in Towerview
Towerview, The Chronicle's monthly magazine, hit newsstands Friday and features two articles focusing on Blue Devil athletics.
"Leading the Dream Team" takes a look at Duke basketball assistant coaches Steve Wojciechowski and Chris Collins, who were assistants on head coach Mike Krzyzewski's staff this summer as he led the USA men's national basketball team to gold at the 2012 Olympic Games in London:
Despite the difference between coaching in college and at the NBA level, the players' respect for Krzyzewski and the entire coaching staff helped make practice and coaching smooth. Collins noted that the coaches had to be a little bit more flexible in terms of reconciling NBA players' styles with values.
"It's one of the reasons why Coach K is so fit for this job," Collins added. "Coach K is a master at doing that: playing hard, playing together and playing to win. He won't sacrifice his values but is very much willing to adapt and be flexible—it's one of the reasons we win."
From the Board to the Books revisits Duke divers Nick McCrory and Abby Johnston, both of whom won medals at the Olympic games in their respective synchronized diving events. After spending much of last year preparing for the Olympics, the pair is now back at school, returning to the normal student life:
Olympic dreams caused the athletes to put their Duke careers aside, though they trained on campus. Johnston did not take classes at Duke this Spring and took a reduced courseload Fall 2011. McCrory took off all of the 2011-2012 academic year.
But now that the games are over, Johnston and McCrory are focusing on classes. Both Johnston and McCrory are pre-med, majoring in psychology and mathematics, respectively.
"It's been a bit challenging," Johnston said of the adjustment back to school life. "I am just happy to be back on campus."

The Echo Makerby Richard Powers
When the victim of a suspicious accident becomes unable to recognize his sister and insists that she is an impostor, a prominent neurologist is consulted.
The Gold Bug Variationsby Richard Powers
A national bestseller, voted by Time as the #1 novel of 1991, selected as one of the "Best Books of 1991" by Publishers Weekly, and nominated for a National Book Critics Circle Award--a magnificent story that probes the meaning of love, science, music, and art, by the brilliant author of Three Farmers on Their Way to a Dance.
The Time of Our Singingby Richard Powers
On Easter day, 1939, at Marian Anderson's epochal concert on the Washington Mall, David Strom, a German Jewish émigré scientist, meets Delia Daley, a young Philadelphia Negro studying to be a singer. Their mutual love of music draws them together, and-against all odds and better judgment-they marry. They vow to raise their children beyond time, beyond identity, steeped only in song. Jonah, Joseph, and Ruth grow up, however, during the Civil Rights era, coming of age in the violent 1960s, and living out adulthood in the racially retrenched late century. Jonah, the eldest, whose voice could make heads of state repent, follows a life in his parents' beloved classical music. Ruth, the youngest, devotes herself to community activism and repudiates the white culture her brother represents. Joseph, the middle child and the narrator of this generation-bridging tale, struggles to find himself and remain connected to them both.

Michael Page Africa recruits across the African continent. Our easy to use guides give you the lowdown on living and working in selected countries in Central Africa.
Our quick reference guides have vital information on pay, benefits, tax and visas - everything you need to work and live in Cameroon :
Working in Cameroon
Pay & Benefits
In Cameroon, the labour code stipulates a minimum salary of 23,514 XAF (35.8 euros) per month. A secretary's average wage is 110,000 XAF, while an accountant earns around 300,000 XAF. A normal work week in the private sector is 40 hours.
A fiscal year starts the first of January and ends the 31st of December. Anyone living and working in Cameroon must pay personal income tax ("Impôt sur le revenu"). Employees have their taxes deducted directly from their wages. The tax varies between 10% to 35% and anyone with an income of 5,000,000 XAF will pay a 35% tax. Before every 31st of March, a tax declaration, based on income groups, must be sent at the nearest taxation office.
A visa is required for both short and long stays. For business purposes, a letter from the employer stating the mission, an employment contract agreed to by the "Ministère du Travail" and a return plane ticket are required. You need a yellow fever certificate to be granted a visa. It can take up to two months for the Cameroon Embassy to issue a visa.
Living in Cameroon
Useful Information
French is spoken throughout Cameroon, while English is spoken in the northwest and southwest of the country.
The political situation is fragile in Douala, Yaoundé and in the western provinces in February 2008. Travel to the northern part of the country is not recommended.
Because of its oil resources and favourable agricultural conditions, Cameroon has one of the best-endowed primary commodity economies in sub-Saharan Africa. However, it faces many of the serious problems facing other underdeveloped countries.
Medical facilities are limited, and health insurance is needed to work in Cameroon. If treated prior to departure, you should bring all medications and prescription drugs with you (in their original containers). Vaccination against yellow fever, tuberculosis, cholera, hepatitis A and B, typhoid and tetanus is needed. In addition, you should take anti-malarial drugs and measures to avoid insect bites. It is advisable to drink only bottled water.
Here is a list of healthcare professionals (e.g. doctors, dentists, specialists, laboratories, pharmacies) usually frequented by expatriates. Embassies and consulates also provide a list of trusted establishments.
Bank Accounts
When hired in Cameroon, opening a bank account is easy. Generally ID pictures, a valid passport, pay stub, and a minimum deposit of 10,000 CFA francs (XAF) suffice. Credit cards are accepted only in major hotels, and by airlines and international chains. A few ATMs have been set up in Yaoundé and Douala. You can check the MasterCard ATM locator page for the location of ATMs in Cameroon.
In addition, cheques are not used in Cameroon, so you should bring US dollars or Euros and exchange them in banks or at foreign exchange offices. Crédit Lyonnais du Cameroun, Société Générale de Banques au Cameroun, BICEC and other banks operate in Cameroon.
Finding a Property
Douala, Yaoundé, Garoua, Bamenda, Koussendi are the main cities in Cameroon. In Yaoundé, there are many real estate agencies. It is possible to rent an advanced standing apartment around 330 000 XAF per month (503 Euros per month in 2008) in the capital. Bastos, Quartier du Lac and Plateau Atémengué are the main residential areas. Douala, Bonapriso and Bonanjo are districts expatriates are to be found. Lately, rents have risen significantly (about 20%). A contract lasts one year, and the rent is usually be payable in advance.
By road: Traffic regulations are not generally respected and driving is said to be dangerous between Douala and Yaoundé. Rental cars are available but are very expensive. Away from the main cities, it is rare to find paved roads, so four-wheel drive is recommended. Due to the lack of rain, roads stay in fairly good condition. If you want to drive your own car, you can use an international driving licence.
By train: The railway is improving, but it is still largely avoided by expatriates and tourists because travel is time consuming. Train service exists from the capital, Yaoundé, to the port city of Douala and the northern city of Ngaoundéré. Camrail, a subsidiary of Bolloré, hopes to greatly extend the rail network by 2025
By air: Cameroon Airlines has been out of operation since 2008. The new national airline, Camair-co, operates between Yaoundé and Douala and Garoua.
By bus: Modern, comfortable buses, sometimes with air conditioning, operate between the major cities. Note that buses wait until they are full to depart. Departure may take a few hours. Within Douala and Yaoundé, there is no public transport.
Cost of Living
The currency is the CFA franc (XAF). In April 2008 the exchange rate was 1 euro = 709.54 XAF and 1 USD = 443.67 XAF.
Here are some prices for common expenditures (in CFA francs; 2011):

Making the problem worse, as I mentioned earlier, was modern medicine's enslavement by technology. Cardiologists can no longer commit to a diagnosis of a heart murmur without an echocardiogram. Neurologists can't diagnose a stroke without a CAT scan. The old art of medicine—talking to patients, figuring out what's wrong, and fixing it—had died. In the process, actually caring for patients had also died. The replacement? Robotic surgery, high-tech scanners, productivity quotas for doctors, and precious little time for patients. Health care in America was becoming "The Night of the Living Dead."
Medishare had originally gone to Haiti to help the Haitian people. My first trip awoke me from my own zombie curse. It was becoming clearer and clearer to me that perhaps Haiti was helping me more than I was helping it. Perhaps experiences in places like Haiti could help some in my profession shake off the curse cast upon our profession. I had witnessed firsthand how touched our students were by the heartfelt "Mesi, ti dokte" they received from every patient after every service they performed. Medicine didn't have to be robotic, "going through the motions," or uncaring. There was more to being a medical student than passing exams and more to being a doctor than making money. If only our school of medicine would see it that way.
The story of Joseph does, however, end on a happy note. It took him three years, but perhaps to the surprise (and consternation) of the school's administration, he completed all of the dean's prerequisites for reinstatement. He graduated three years ago. I cheered wildly for him when the dean handed him his diploma. He is now completing his residency in the family medicine training program here at the University of Miami. It was Joseph's Haitianess—the dogged determination to climb one mountain after another until he reached his goal—that saved his career. If Sisyphus had been Haitian, he would have gotten that rock over the hill.

Great for travel and on those hot or high demand days where a lot of fluids and electrolytes are lost. Water alone is not enough when losing high amounts of sweat. This replacement potentially prevents some nasty complications of electrolyte loss through sweat; such as cramping and headaches.

Food near Forte dei Marmi and Lucca
I'll be traveling to Italy in June. For the last leg of our journey we'll be using Forte dei Marmi as a base to explore nearby areas. There's not a lot of information on the board for this area. Even Lucca, where we plan to spend at least one full day, doesn't have many recent posts. Does anyone have suggestions on restaurants that would be good for dinner? We would be willing to drive about half an hour or more for a good meal.
In Forte, we have a wonderful restaurant, Lorenzo. This is one of my many posts.
In June, there is no problem for the next two places. for dinner down the coast. Easy to find because it's light, late. Then I've mentioned La Dogana outside of Pietrasanta which is close to Forte. Unfortunately, IMO, there is no outstanding place in Lucca, even though the city itself is truly wonderful. Hope all this helps. If you want someone to play devil's advocate on other places, I might be able to help.
Down the coast, about an hour from here is Scolapasta in Catiglioncello. Here is one post.
We've been back to Scolapasta in Castiglioncello a number of times since we first wrote it up (see the two posts above). It is less than 45 minutes from here and it is fast becoming a mainstay for us. Nothing like it exists in Forte dei Marmi or Viareggio or anyplace else around here on the coast (it is very different from Lorenzo in Forte or La Pinetta in Marina di Bibbona). An informal place for truly excellent fish and seafood dishes.
We were there twice in the last two weeks, the first times there this year. Nothing has changed from last year; why would it. Take excellent ingredients, a talented chef who respects those ingredients, couple that with causal gracious service by one of the owners and you have a recipe for success. The owners are not about to spoil it.
Physically, Scolapasta is a modest place, but extremely comfortable, all you could want in a fish trattoria/ restaurant by the sea. By design it does not cater to foreign tourists; in all the times we've been there, we've been the only non Italians... as one of the owners said to us "we have never had spaghetti con vongole on the menu and never will." It is neither expensive nor inexpensive; figure 60 Euros per person for three courses plus dessert. Great fish and seafood are expensive in Italy and if you go to a place with cut rate prices, it means that the ingredients are not fresh. That is a fact. Here, two weeks ago, a fisherman was bringing his catch, through the dining room, at 3 in the afternoon. That was for dinner that night. A good wine list VERY reasonably priced, served in Riedel glasses. One time we had a 2011 Hofstadter Muller-Thurgau, another the 2010 Schiopetto Tocai, both around 20-22 Euros.
The entire menu is on a chalkboard. As the kitchen runs out, the dish is simply erased. Menu changes daily. Excellent bread; really great desserts.
La Pineta in Marina di Bibbona, about an hour from here. Here is a post:
Luciano Zazzeri's place remains in top form. Success hasn't spoiled him and the next generation is now right there (his two sons, one heading up the kitchen and one in the dining room... both under their father's tutelage).
Totally full room at lunch, once again all Italians except for us. Young, older, they all come for the wonderful, and wonderfully fresh, seafood and fish, in various great combinations. Yesterday, we started with pasta e fagioli con cozze e bottarga. Half the beans were pureed and half left whole. The puree was smooth as silk. A generous helping of the sweetest mussels had as a counterpoint just enough bottarga to complement the sweetness and add a different texture. Slightly thick pieces of fresh pasta and a touch of rosemary created an ethereal dish. Absolutely superb! A dish that one dreams of. The other dish to start was straccetti di pasta fresca con le triglie. Rarely, does one find triglie like this. Aside from the usual seafood dishes (i.e. Spaghetti alle vongole veraci; risotto ai frutti di mare), to start, we could have had crema di zucca e calamari ripieni; ravioli di patate e stoccafisso; bavette con calamari, seppioline e salvia. For main courses we had Luciano's signature dish Cacciucco della Pineta which is unlike any cacciucco you've ever had (I've written about it before)... and a new dish Le Polpette di Luciano. This is exactly what it sounds like. Polpette made with the leftover fish rather than leftover meat. Some of it shaped like a sausage and poached, some in little balls and lightly deep fried; with a light sauce of olive oil flavored with rosemary. Extraordinary. A bottle of 2011 Livio Felluga's "Friulano" (just another abomination from the EU in Brussels as to why it can't be called Tocai... as it had been for more than a hundred years; the bureaucrats in Brussels never learn).
Great desserts, a fantastic (reasonably priced) wine list as one might expect near Bolgheri, professional but informal service. Right on the water at the beach. Can't ask for much more than that in a restaurant meal.
Roughly 20-25 euros a dish each for antipasti, primi, and secondi, and 15 euros for dessert. Fresh fish and seafood of top quality is expensive in Italy.
La Dogana from 2012:
For a restaurant near Camaiore go to La Dogana. Actually I think the address is Camaiore, but it's between Camaiore and Pietrasanta (make sure you go to the new location; they moved but the guide books might still give the old address).
We've been going for a long time. Very good restaurant with both meat and fish on a medium size menu. Cordial, friendly but professional service. Very good wine list. You come out of there smiling.
re: allende
Thanks so much for your informative and detailed reply. I'm glad to know that there are some very good choices in the area. That is disappointing to hear about Lucca though. I guess we'll plan to go elsewhere for dinner.
re: nycfoodfan
Lucca is about 40 minutes from Forte. Then you have to park and because you have to park just inside or outside the walls, you have to walk at least ten minutes to get to any restaurant, none of which, IMO, are outstanding in any way.
Just as quick to get to Castiglioncello or Marina di Bibbona and the dinners there are superb. Of course, you can just ride your bike to Lorenzo, right in Forte.

Well if they can't catch this guy from this picture, we need to go get Barney Fife.

They may be too busy generating revenue for the city to look for this guy. Such as arresting people for such dangerous crimes as driving your car with the windows tinted too dark. Most jurisdictions will ticket you for this violation, but reportedly Suwanee police are arresting people for this even if there were no other offenses or warrants for the individuals. The time an officer spends arresting and then booking someone for a charge like this is time they are not patrolling the city. Just a thought.

Wow, what an ignorant comment. S.P.D does not arrest for this offense. They have a city ordinance they can ticket you which does get reported to the state. I think you should confirm things before go spreading lies! Just a thought.

As the Economist's political outlook has changed on issues throughout the years, the one constant has been the restraining of the written identities of its anonymous contributors in place of a unified "voice of God," as it's often referred to. And the real challenge to maintaining this weighty air of authority has never been the complicated issues that seem to cry out for the responsible reflection of the Economist's on-the-one-hand-but-on-the-other consideration. It is, rather, the attempts to wedge clear-cut and fairly ridiculous ideas into this deliberative style.
Can you make just about anything sound plausible if you employ the tone of the unimpeachable? The Economist tested that question in this week's edition, and the answer is a resounding No. The magazine has a brief write-up of the reunion of the Occupy Wall Street movement in New York, which it admits has seemingly run out of steam. But then the Economist closes with this paragraph:
Todd Gitlin, a professor at Columbia School of Journalism and the author of a new book, "Occupy Nation: The Roots, the Spirit and the Promise of Occupy Wall Street", has explored why Occupy did not become the sort of mass movement that could deliver legislative and regulatory change. He cites over-democratic decision-making in its General Assembly and a later turn to violence by some members. On the other hand, he argues, it succeeded in transforming America's national conversation, adding to the Lexicon not just the Twitter meme of #occupy but also the notion that the country has become divided into a wealthy 1% and a not-so-lucky 99%. Without this, argues Mr Gitlin, it would have been far harder for Mitt Romney to be attacked simply for being rich, first by Newt Gingrich and then by Barack Obama. If this attack strategy helps win Mr Obama another term, he may have the Occupy movement to thank.
First of all, I can help Gitlin figure out why the Occupy movement didn't change the world. Violent anarchists who shield the perpetrators of sexual assault, defecate on police cars, and rage against hygiene do not get elected to Congress. Far more remarkable is Gitlin's assertion that Barack Obama, of all people, would have struggled to attack Mitt Romney as rich without the help of the country's furious collectivist youth.
But worst of all is the Economist's last sentence in that paragraph. It's not attributed to Gitlin, but merely declared by the magazine: if Obama wins reelection by bashing success and hectoring the public about inequality, he can thank Occupy.
In the modern era of American politics, this sentiment is refuted by pretty much every single election cycle. But it's also refuted by the magazine's hero-president, Obama. Did the Economist not watch then-candidate Barack Obama attack John McCain in 2008 for having a rich wife? Did it miss Obama telling voters we need to "spread the wealth around"? Did it not watch the truly stunning conversation Obama had with Charlie Gibson at a Democratic primary debate with Hillary Clinton, in which Gibson pointed out to Obama that raising taxes on capital gains does not lead to higher revenue, and Obama responded that revenue wasn't the issue, but instead that he "would look at raising the capital gains tax for purposes of fairness"?
The examples abound. Democrats, especially since the Bush tax cuts, have run on the class warfare argument that Republicans just want tax cuts "for the rich" (which, in the Democrats' world, extends to the middle class with a smattering of regressive taxes on the poor as well) and that Republicans don't understand the effects of inequality or the need to, in Obama's terms, "spread the wealth around."
Now, it's true that the inequality issue's profile may have been raised slightly by a credulous media seeing a crowd of Che wannabes in the sea of bored Chomskyites. But it's safe to say the Obama campaign would have figured out a way to attack Romney's wealth without the help of confused teenagers.

Recently our CEO, Lee Lin, wrote a guest post on VentureBeat about his experiences presenting a case study on RentHop to a group of 90 Harvard MBA students. Here's a link to the post.
Some of Lee's key insights:
1) Hearing something you already know, articulated from a different vantage point, can be just as valuable as hearing it for the first time. There is a benefit to concisely formalizing concepts that you already know. You'll have an easier time processing the topic in your head and communicating your thoughts to others.
2) Instead of worrying about big competitors, startups should be afraid of (a) defeating themselves through bad execution and (b) disruptive startups that haven't yet entered the spotlight.
3) Startups that address relatively small and homogeneous target groups may monetize more successfully by charging people who are clearly gaining measurable value from the service than by using ad networks and affiliate programs.
4) The "Yelp for X" business model is popular, but it's hard to create a comprehensive review service when "X" is not food or travel. Very few people will happily praise their landlords for collecting rent on time each month and promptly calling the exterminator.

I would like to start a company with my handmade soaps, lotions, etc. I could sell to local shops as well as thru my website. Would anyone know what type of licensing this would require in MA? Thanks
JillM | Community Administrator | 1/31/2011 - 1:54 pm
The following response was posted by a Community member: Create an LLC. It will cost around $250. An LLC is a limited liability company and will keep you from getting sued (most of the times). The best place to create an LLC is Delaware, Nevada, Texas and New York. I would recommend Delaware. Word of recommendation. If you are going to sell soap leverage the internet. The internet is a great place to advertise and market your type of product. It is also the most cost effective way. Good luck!

Another aspect of licencing that you might want to consider is what you might need in terms of import / export. This will also differ depending on the countries you might export to. Be sure to acqaint yourself also with payment options which can protect you ( irrevocable credit ) and are usually used with import / export.
MagicMan23 | Window Shopper | 1/18/2011 - 8:53 am
Generally small businesses need to file with their state and city. Each state has different laws, but you can call the city and ask them about getting licenses to do business. The fees in Arizona are pretty reasonably. I think it is less than $100/year to have a licensed business. Give your city a call and ask them - they should be helpful. If you're going to be selling soap online I would definitely make sure you get a LLC in case you're sued. Who knows how each soap might react with different people around the world. Laugh if you like, I've seen stranger things happen.

Fort Union Rendezvous Headliner
18th Century Culture Expert Mark Baker will Headline this year's Rendezvous!
Since 1986, Mark Baker has contributed articles to Muzzleloader Magazine about 18th century frontier culture, living history, experimental archeology, and living in the woods in the manner of a colonial backwoodsman. The first twenty years of the articles are now available as a two-volume anthology, A Pilgrim's Journey. He is also the author of a hefty tome on the social history on the frontier culture entitled Sons of a Trackless Forest.
Mark trained Daniel Day-Lewis in running and reloading skills for his role in Last of the Mohicans; and a few years later, he also trained Mel Gibson, Jason Isaacs, and Heath Ledger in marksmanship and reloading for The Patriot. Mark served as a trainer and consultant on wilderness survival skills for an Unsolved History episode on the Donner Party. He played Davy Crockett in Hunter Heroes: Boone and Crockett. Mark is also the featured expert on woodsman skills in the first four volumes of American Pioneer Video's The Long Hunter Series. Mark's topic for this year's School of the Longhunter will be "Exploring the World of the Longhunter and How He Found His Place" and "Tales of Hunting and Survival and the Making of a National Icon".
Mark Baker will present daily at Fort Union.
Traders and campers in period dress will set up just outside of Fort Union's north wall, with trader's row extending northward from the back gate. The traders will have their usual array of furs and handcrafted items available. Each day will feature a variety of speakers and demonstrations including blacksmithing, canoes of the fur trade, sign language, flint knapping, period cloth, finger weaving, weapon firing, beaver skinning, brain tanning and pottery making. Bagpipers will perform Sunday afternoon. A special daily presentation will be done on the use of cameras and photography during the 19th century.
An array of trade goods will also be presented in the trade house. The American Fur Company traded beads, cloth, blankets, knives, guns, tobacco, and cooking kettles in exchange for buffalo robes and other furs from the Assiniboine, Crow, Cree, Ojibway, Blackfeet, and Hidatsa tribes. Taken from the clerk's ledger lists of 1848-51, exact replicas of more than 200 trade items are available for purchase today.
Come and spend the day at Rendezvous. Admission is free. Buffalo burgers and drinks will be on sale in the parking lot.
Complete 2012 Rendezvous schedule - Updated!

Stories by Everett Cook
McGary, frontcourt beaten up in East Lansing
It had been coming for a couple weeks now, McGary outgrowing his role as the first Wolverine off the bench. He was the spark and the sixth man, a fan favorite, known for pumping up the student section as much as his actual play on the court. But he wasn't ready, and neither was Michigan in a 75-52 loss on Tuesday night.
Everett Cook: The implications of a half-court heave
MADISON — There are desperation buzzer-beating shots, and then there are shots like the one Wisconsin guard Ben Brust hit on Saturday to tie the game at the end of regulation against No. 3 Michigan.
Michigan loses in overtime thriller to Wisconsin
MADISON — The game was destined to be played at a slow pace, not decided by a 40-foot desperation heave. It was Wisconsin after all, the team known for using the shot clock more than any other in the Big Ten, and it was the Kohl Center, where the referees are known for letting teams play.
Without Morgan, Michigan to face Northwestern
On Monday afternoon, their professor, Santiago Colas, walked into class and announced something new to his class, something he or anyone in Ann Arbor hasn't been able to say in more than 20 years.
Behind Enemy Lines: Q&A with Northwestern's Bill Carmody
The Northwestern basketball team that will walk into Crisler Center on Wednesday to take on No. 1 Michigan looks completely different than it did in October, and it's all because of one player.
Robinson plays role of 'Big Dog' against Purdue
Glenn Robinson III got the ball on the wing, felt his man on one side then spun his body the other way. It took the freshman forward two dribbles to get to the edge of the key, where Purdue forward DJ Byrd tried to meet him.
But Byrd can only rise so high. Robinson can fly — Byrd cannot.
Burke highlighted in 'The Journey'
On a darkened court at the Crisler Center, Trey Burke dribbles a ball in and out of his legs, the lone source of movement on a court usually
Surrounded by darkness, Trey Burke dribbles a ball in and out of his legs on the court of the Crisler Center. As the sophomore point guard discusses his decision to forego the NBA Draft and return to Ann Arbor for his sophomore year, the camera pans over the darkened court.
Burke, at the center, is the lone source of movement.
The Statement
Avalon Housing: A place to call home
There's a regular-looking house on a regular corner of a regular Ann Arbor neighborhood that has been a symbol of growth for residents all over the city for the past 20 years. It's nondescript — three stories, tan, flanked by a long porch — but the beauty of the house lies in this subtleness, because the lives of the tenants inside have been anything but subtle.
After first loss of the year, Wolverines to be challenged in Minnesota
The challenge only gets tougher on Thursday night when the Wolverines (2-1 Big Ten, 16-1 overall) will take on Minnesota (3-1, 15-2), who freshman point guard Spike Albrecht calls, "freakishly athletic." This game, not the one last Sunday, is the game that will end up defining the early stretch of Michigan's season.
Ohio State hands Michigan its first loss after comeback bid falls short
COLUMBUS — A win would have made Michigan the No. 1 team in the country for the first time since 1992. But in its biggest game of the season, on its biggest stage, No. 2 Michigan was outmatched, outplayed and beat up for most of the contest in a 56-53 loss to No. 15 Ohio State on Sunday.
