What I offer — I offer spanking caning for beginners and more the more experienced. I do enjoy role-play and, if you have an unusual scenario in mind, don't be afraid to ask, preferably in advance of our meeting. I can always say no — and will say no if I find your scenario in any way sexually demeaning. But I also love the challenge of a new role. I am particularly happy to play the traditional strict headmistress or aunty to set the right mood and I dress accordingly.Please note I only offer spanking and caning and no sexual activities will take place. Although I donít cane anybody to pulp I take the punishment seriously. I am happy to cane or spank on a bare bottom but don't require full nudity. Please note that I am not interested in elaborate pre-scripted scenarios in which I am expected to do YOUR bidding, down to the last stroke of the cane. You are here to submit to me, respectfully, and accept such punishments as I decree appropriate with good grace. Further more I can do personal training session with incorporated punishment to help achieve weight loss and well being.
Sessions take place in my rustic school room or my private study in a Victorian cottage in Gillingham Kent You can read more about the schoolroom here The schoolroom.
Prices -
120 minutes: £160
90 minutes: £120
60 minutes: £90
40 minutes: £60
30 minutes: £50
Fee should be paid upon arrival preferable along with a note from "parents or teachers" with a list of offences to be dealt with.
I spank with hands as well as slipper, hairbrush and paddle and I have a good selection of canes and straps.
New Service - Your own personal cane reserved for you.
I have now obtained a quantity of top quality, swishy canes, direct from Malaysia, available for sale at only £12 each.
For those who prefer their own, exclusive implement, you can now purchase a cane for your own use, and I will store it in my study, free of charge. It will be specially labelled and reserved only for your punishment.
As an added service, if you purchase a cane and request storage, I will soak it in Lindseed oil, which will ensure that it retains its strength, suppleness and sting for a very long time.
You can, however, take the cane with you whenever you wish.
Please mention when booking if you wish to make use of this service.
What I dont offer -
Please note I only offer spanking and caning to adults over the age of 20 and not any kind of personal service. I will never be undressed or semi undressed during the session. I never switch and I don't offer foot or leg worship or bondage, I don't like to see blood and requests for caning resulting in blood will be refused.
What I expect -
I expect clients to be on time — polite, clean and properly dressed.

" I want to inform you that the solid, quality growth Frigid is experiencing in 2013, of which international export is a very important component, has allowed the company to hire a "high value" employee. Specifically, Frigid has brought on an industrial engineer. This position is new and additive to the employee base. The engineer has been aware there are savings to be earned and efficiencies to be gained in the manufacturing process, parts design and production, shop floor organization, reduction in scrap and waste, even from better programming of the automated machine tools. In his first several weeks the engineer has already identified substantive savings in these areas. This is just the beginning. The cumulative impact of his ideas can only strengthen our competitive position and maintain our reputation for quality, both nationally and internationally. As we blend these and other programs with the superb support from your staff and foreign offices with whom we are working, we look forward to the need to hire additional skilled workers to meet increasing overseas demand for Frigid products."

This reads like a hatchet job. There are many perfectly reasonable explanations for the actions, including unsatisfactory work, differences of opinion, and inappropriate activities. Yet the article suggests that the only possibility is faulty leadership. I sense a writer with an agenda.
it pays to tow the politburo line.
You would have thought that the University of Chicago would have taught this FED Chief something. I am not certain that "academics" have the necessary skin in the game, nor the requisite testicular fortitude, to be effective FED chiefs. Abrupt gear-switching like this, all the way from Friedman to Keynes, sounds like either a "mid-life crisis" or heavy midnight persuasion by the 0bummer thuggery irregulars.
Makes no difference, they probably just weren't laundering bankster funds fast enough
People familiar with the economics scene know: at least one of the people fired is notoriously difficult, aggressive and socially intolerable. He would have been fired long long time in any private company.

NEW YORK — Bethenny Frankel plans to grow her Skinnygirl line of wine and spirits and power bars to include more food products.
"You'll definitely see Skinnygirl food," the former reality TV star said. "If it's something that I'm passionate about, if it's something that solves a problem for women in particular because that's who I connect with the most, and (it's) any product that I can improve upon or any problem that I can solve, then Skinnygirl will be attached to that."
She has added what she calls "The New Girls" to her popular line of ready-to-serve drinks, including Moscato, White Cherry Vodka, Mojito and Sweet 'n Tart Grapefruit Margarita.
Frankel, whose entrepreneurial reach also includes diet books and videos, and a novel, had a six-city run of "Bethenny" on Fox-owned stations last year. The show will air this fall.
"Initially people were afraid of me doing the talk show," Frankel said. "I kind of had to push through and be tested, but I think as women we're always being tested (and) the reward is so much sweeter. You've got to fight for what you want, but if you really are passionate and you really have drive, then you (can) pretty much accomplish anything."
Frankel was a runner-up on "The Apprentice: Martha Stewart." She appeared on "The Real Housewives of New York City," where she became a breakout star, then starred in her own reality shows.
She believes her honesty about the ups and downs of her personal life has helped people relate to her. Online: www.skinnygirldaily.com.

Research Interests
My research focuses on several aspects of arthropod physiology, especially ion regulation, nitrogen metabolism and water balance in isopod crustaceans. Of particular interest is how selection has shaped these different physiological systems in the evolutionary transition from marine to terrestrial life.
Terrestrial isopods represent a particularly useful group of animals for understanding the evolutionary patterns of change in physiological systems. This group has a well-characterized phylogeny and over 4000 species, including basal representatives in the marine intertidal, soil-dwelling (cryptozoic) species, and several independent terrestrial radiations. Recent work by my students has shown that 2 species from independently terrestrial lineages both excrete waste nitrogen as volatile ammonia, and accumulate glutamine between periodic bursts of excretion. Current work is attempting to elucidate whether this role of glutamine as a periodic nitrogen store is derived from a similar role in tidally restricted cycles of ammonia excretion in the basal intertidal species. We are also attempting to understand the mechanism of branchial ammonia volatilization and its dependence on bicarbonate-based buffering in the pleopodites.
Additional ongoing projects include a study of the pleopodal lungs (also convergently derived in different lineages) and their role in metabolic regulation, the colligative water vapor absorption exploited by the section Crinocheta and its likely origin from pre-adaptive branchial salt excretion in littoral species, and the mechanisms of ion-regulation and ion sequestration during dehydration in terrestrial species.

Anything under 40 FPS in these modern games is unplayable. I mean sure, you could force your way through it and say, "see I played it". By unplayable, I mean not reasonably smooth and stutter free, or not "enjoyable" by any reasonable standard.
The way I see it, some of you guys pay double what these video cards are worth ($550+), not only once but you go SLI and pay it twice, then take the standard "acceptable" PC game frame rate of 60 FPS and cut in half, then drop a few more frames off for good measure, then run around saying "I have no trouble playing *insert game name*! It runs smooth as butter on my rig at 25 FPS!"
Smooth as butter....is 60+
People who have "extreme" specs like any 8 series card in SLI and a fairly new dual core should be getting 80+ FPS in whatever game they play. If not...you're friggin nuts if you think you got your money's worth.
It's like if I was dating a grossly fat, smelly woman with green teeth and horrid breath and an afro, who put me $40,000 in debt buying Crystal Meth from the dealer down the street from her Trailer Park, and me saying, "Damn she is fine, and a classy, good woman as well!"

Now, Shantrell K. Moore, 21, is facing felony charges of attempted rape, burglary and sexual battery, accused of attacking the woman in her bed.
According to documents filed Tuesday in Allen Superior Court, the woman awoke Nov. 14 to a man she didn't know pulling off her pants. The man also held a knife to her throat, according to court documents.
The woman's crying and plea for help awoke her sister, who also lives at the apartment. She forced open the bedroom door to interrupt the attack, court records said.
Fort Wayne police later used video to identify Moore as a man who entered the woman's apartment. Moore claimed the woman led him into her bedroom consensually, court records said.
He was being held in lieu of $37,500 bail.
Beren Lemberg, 20, of the 4900 block of Southlane Road, was formally charged Tuesday with one count of robbery.
Prosecutors allege he used a threatening note to rob the Walgreens at 6201 Stellhorn Road of methadone, fentanyl and more than $400 cash on Nov. 4.
An employee told police at the time that Lemberg looked like the man who robbed the same pharmacy Oct. 4.
Lemberg was charged Nov. 14 with that robbery as well, accused of taking pain medication and more than $1,000 in that heist.
The man walked into the drugstore just before 10 p.m. and demanded prescription medications. He did not show a weapon, police said, but made off with an undisclosed amount of pills.
The man was described as 5-foot-8 and white. Along with his piercings, he wore dark framed glasses, a baseball cap, cargo pants, a hooded jacket and white tennis shoes, police said.
Corey Alan Witsman, 24, was being held on preliminary charges of methamphetamine possession, possession of drug paraphernalia and dealing or manufacturing methamphetamine.
His bail was set at $50,000.
A detective from the Steuben County Sheriff's Department was called to do a welfare check at home on Barton Lake when Witsman and the drugs were found, police said.
Samantha Carter, 18, did not immediately remember much of the crash that sent her and her 17-year-old brother to Parkview Regional Medical Center, according to police.
Carter was behind the wheel of a Chevrolet Cavalier going north on Long Lake Road, the Noble County Sheriff's Department said, when she stopped at Noble County Road 100 North.
An oncoming minivan carrying a number of youths – the youngest was 11 – T-boned the Cavalier, police said.
The sheriff's deputy said the intersection offers limited visibility for drivers because of a hill, and it's not clear why Carter stopped her car or whether she saw the minivan.
No condition on her brother, Wesley Carter, was available. Everyone in the minivan was treated at the scene except for an 11-year-old girl who was taken to a Noble County emergency room.
Everyone involved was on their way to school at the time of the crash.

If Jefferson county wants to live large , fine. Just don't expect the rest of the state to pay for it.
We need a proximity tax. Tax the residents of the surrounding counties that adjoin Jefferson County . They should have to pay for living next to this fair county. I'm sure some of the fine air from JeffCo drifts over their county lines. They should have to pay for it !
Good for the St. Clair County Comission . Jefferson County has proved for years they have no clue about financial responsibility. Any money they get their hands on will be mis-spent as usual . Trim the dead wood from the county government . Don't start with the lower level workers . Thin out the mid-level management . Too many of those folks are doing duplicate jobs . Take a look in the court house and thin out some of those folks who are always on break, getting ready for a break or moseying back from a break. For you folks who want folks from the surrounding counties to stay out of Jefferson County , you don't have to worry about that. I'd rather sandpaper my backside and jump in a swimming pool full of alcohol than make a trip to Jeff. Co. I'm afraid some of y'all might come up with a way to tax your smoggy air that I'd have to breathe.
Jefferson County might as well stop lusting after an occupational tax and learn to live with the present income . No shape form or fashion of an occupational tax will pass. Welcome to the real world.
If I'm paying a tax in Jefferson County , I feel I have a right to be represented concerning that tax . Hence ,I've already contacted my legislator and senator concerning this matter and was assured by both they'll be voting against the occupational tax.
I hope our legislators have enough sense to not enact another occupational tax. The county leaders manage to spend every cent they get their paws on. Most of it for frills instead of necessities. Lord forbid they should get home rule. It'd be like putting rats in charge of the corn crib .
How silly. Everyone knows blacks are not racist . That bigoted white man must have attacked those peace loving black folks. The black folks should file lawsuits against the white man for damage caused to their hands by his head. Someone call the Southern Poverty Law Center immediately !
No racial boundrys for punks. They come in all colors , shapes and ages. Every once in a while fate deals them a hand they neeeded.
Act like a thug, get what thugs have coming to them. Too bad the little punks made a bad choice. At what age is breaking and entering deemed acceptable ?
Rather than whining about enforcement of laws against illegal immigrants , seems to me the folks doing the moaning and groaning should be working to educate the illegals about the proper way to enter the U.S. Then , no one would have to be looking over their shoulder to see who was coming for them. If the illegal immigrants are such out-standing folks ,as we've been told about a jillion times, seems to me they would want heed our laws.
One thing I'm seeing that the imigration law has done , it's put a lot of my friends in the construction industry back to work. It seems a lot of the folks moaning and groaning about the law are unhappy because the cheaper labor is not available now. If you can't tolerate the situation in Alabama at the present , to quote Lewis Grizzard , "Delta is ready when you are". Have a nice trip.
Ahhh ! Wonderful. This shows our State Legislators are aware of term limits. If they think that would be good for Birmingham, I think it would be even better for our legislators. Y'all huddle up and get behind this wonderful idea.
If you're going to ban smoking cigarettes , wouldn't a ban on selling them be in order ? Or, do we have a case of good old fashioned greed going on ?
It is good to read something positive about Birmingham .
According to news reports, he was near I- 22 and near a railroad . About the only spot that fits all the info is where I -22 crosses the side tracks for Miller steam plant. Multiple tracks, passing under the interstate , and in Walker county as where he gave the location to his folks. God Bless the young man ,and his family. May he be found soon.
Since Bama toasted the Honey Badger Monday night , I understand he perfers to be addressed as The Honey Bun.
How disgusting . Targeting speeders. Can we get the Illegal Immigrant law protesters to protest this inconvient law ?
Well darn. From reading the responses to the article about Mz. Smoot , I guess she can't count on any of y'all for a small contribution for Shelia Smoot Appreciation day.
OK, all you Bama haters just take a deeeep breath and some anti acids . Y'all will be fine in a couple of months.
There's more to Finebaum than meets the ear. It shows with yesterdays' callers paying respect to Shane . It also shows with his interaction with Robert from Waterloo. Thanks for dropping your armor and letting us see that Finebaum. My condolences to Shanes' family and loved ones.

Tomorrow morning, Apple shares are going to get clobbered following the news that CEO Steve Jobs is taking a third medical leave. Several aspects of the announcements are bothering the Street. One, he's making no promise this time on when he might come back – last time, Apple said he'd be out six months, and that's how long he was gone. And two, there's something sad and worrisome about his comment that "I … hope to be back as soon as I can," which implies, well, maybe he won't be back so soon, or maybe at all.
With the stock market shut down today for the Martin Luther King holiday, the reaction from the analyst community has been fairly limited so far, but you can be sure that there will be a burst of commentary tomorrow morning, and another round Wednesday morning after the company reports December quarter results after the close on Tuesday.
My discussions with analysts so far suggest fairly widespread concern that this time, Steve might not be coming back – that his health problems simply aren't consistent with someone dealing with the pressures of running a company pushing $100 billion in annual revenues. And there also is some anticipation that for anyone who has been waiting for a chance to buy the stock, tomorrow morning's anticipated sell off could provide the perfect entry point.
Gleacher & Co. analyst Brian Marshall said in an interview that he thinks the stock tomorrow could test the $300 level – which would be a drop of around 15%, knocking $50 billion in market cap from the company's valuation. At that, point, he said, the stock would basically be trading at 12x his forecast of $22-$23 a share in profits for calendar 2011, given the company has about $55 a share in cash – and would offer a good entry point for investors. Marshall's assessment is that there is no better than a 50/50 chance that he comes back this time as a full-time CEO. "My belief is that this is the last time we'll probably see Steve as CEO," he says. "I expect Tim Cook to be named CEO sometime this year."
Gene Munster, an analyst at Piper Jaffray, says that despite the wording of the release, investors fear there is something more serious happening this time. Munster says he's always thought that the stock would take a 10% hit in a post-Steve world – and in European trading, the shares are trading down 6%-8%. He's expecting a 5% fall in U.S. trading tomorrow. In short, investors are treating the stock as if Jobs already has stepped down from the top job.
In an interview, Munster notes that from a day-to-day management perspective, replacing Jobs with Cook as CEO would change nothing; he notes that Cook has effectively been running Apple since Jobs returned from exile in 1997. Munster thinks there would be little immediate impact on the Apple org chart from such a change, although he notes that key players would gain in stature inside the company, including product design guru Jonathan Ive. The real issue will be that "Jobs is irreplaceable…his product inspiration, no one can touch that."
On the other hand, he also notes that "we've been through this before, and historically, it has been a buying opportunity." The company's game plan for the next 1-2 years is already in motion. If the stock really does open down 10% or more tomorrow, he says, it will be a buying opportunity. The longer term question, he says, is how the possibility of Apple without Jobs will affect the P/E multiple investors are willing to pay for the stock. Munster notes that there is an "optionality, wild-card potential" to Apple with Steve at the helm, the idea that he might launch the company into a giant new market at any particular moment, that is factored into the stock.
As for tomorrow afternoon's earnings report, Munster says the message is likely to be that "things are going great." He expects a lot of good financial news. And he says the bottom line message will be that Apple is "effectively taking over the technology world," as it spreads its wares from the developed market into emerging economies. "Whether the stock is up or down on Wednesday [after earnings and the Jobs news] is in some ways irrelevant," he says. "What is more important is the broader theme, which is that they are taking over the world." Even if Steve is cheering Apple on from the sidelines.

Former Abbeville County Sheriff Charles Goodwin pleaded guilty to misconduct in office during a hearing on Friday in Greenville, SC.
Goodwin admitted to receiving cash "kickbacks" from county funds paid to a local auto shop from January 1998 until November 2011.
He also admitted to using the services of a South Carolina Department of Corrections inmate to work on person vehicles and property belonging to Goodwin and his family.
During court, Goodwin apologized to all those who supported him during his time in law enforcement.
"I'm grateful for the 39 years in law enforcement I was allowed to serve as a law enforcement officer, especially the 24 years as sheriff," Goodwin said. "I thank them for their support over the years and even now."
The judge sentenced Goodwin ten years suspended to five years probation and one hundred hours of community service. He must also pay a restitution of $4,445.
Abbeville County Coroner Ronnie Ashley will continue to serve as sheriff until the governor appoints an interim sheriff.
The interim sheriff will hold office until a special election can be held.

1 1/2 cups
peanut butter
1 cup
4 cups
confectioners' sugar
1 1/3 cups
graham cracker crumbs
2 cups
semisweet chocolate chips
1 tablespoon
These were great. After dipping, I sprinkled with pecans and coconut! Very easy.
Tip: Put balls in freezer to firm before dipping. Makes it much easier
Too sweet! My hubby didn't think so... but next time I make these I will only put in 3 cups of sugar and WAY more (2 cups) peanut butter. It could stand to have more graham cracker crumbs, too. I was able to make ONE bag of choc. chips last the whole time, but I added a little cream and oil for a smoother texture. I think that those will affect the hardening capabilities of the chocolate... we'll see! Good, but next time only 3 cups sugar!!! It's got potential.

Everyone in my extended family kept snitching these delicious peanut butter balls this Christmas. I'm a chocolate snob, so I used Ghiradelli semi-sweet chips. I couldn't bear to pollute it with shortening or any other fat - and quite frankly the thicker chocolate coating was perfect for me (but had to use 3 bags of choc chips). I microwaved the chocolate to melt it, stirring frequently, and used a spoon to dip the balls - much easier than a double boiler and toothpick routine. And if you're wondering - use creamy peanut butter!
These were a hit at my church's Christmas party. I would recommend TWO bags of chocolate chips though. I did not have enough chocolate to cover all of the peanut butter balls.
This is such a quick recipe to make; and they dissappear just as fast!
The only thing I did differently was I used Rice Crispies instead of the graham cracker crumbs and milk chocolate instead of semi-sweet.
You can also roll them in crushed nuts, cocoa powder, powdered sugar or coconut as an alternative to the chocolate.
I used this recipe last year for Christmas presents. The recipe at that time said to combine 1 1/2 ounces of parafin with the chocolate chips, rather than the shortening. The parafin worked great. Haven't tried this with the shortening.
These were delicious! I used a size #60 scoop(small scoop from The Pampered Chef) to make perfect 1 Tbsp. balls. But I felt the chocolate was too thick and would melt on your hands, so I added a half a bar of parrafin wax to the MILK chocolate chips (don't care for semi-sweet). They melt in your mouth, not in your hand! Does anyone know if these freeze well???
The absolute BEST peanut butter ball recipe I've tried. My kids and I used this recipe to make peanut butter eggs for Easter. They turned out really well. The texture was perfect and the taste was out of this world! The graham cracker crumbs are the secret ingredient, I think. My mother thought these were the best. Candy-making can be intimidating, but this recipe is so simple and yields delicious results. They disappear quickly, so consider doubling the recipe. I will use this recipe every year for Christmas, and whenever else I can find an excuse to make them!

MONROE, Wash. (AP) — Plans to build a cable wakeboarding and waterskiing park on Lake Tye are moving forward.
Sammamish-based H3o Development expects to break ground this fall. The company plans to erect seven towers, which will carry a moving cable loop, in the south end of Lake Tye. Riders will hold lines extending down from the moving cable as they travel at about 18 mph on the water on skis, boards or skates.

Don't Touch Steve's iPhone Dock! The Reason Apps Get Rejected?
Daring Fireball has posted an interesting article that focuses on trust-issues developers have with Apple's current App Store approval process. In a pod-shell, they can't depend on Apple not to reject Apps they've invested time and money on, hence they are reluctant to develop the kind of Apps that require time and money, which are typically just the kind of innovative, mind-blowing Apps we really, really want them to develop and Apple not to reject. While DF's solution is both simple and profound, it's an analysis of just why Apple may have rejected PodCaster and MailWrangler, the two Apps whose rejection made manifest this developer fear:
The theory is that there is an unpublished rule that Apple — and in this case, where by "Apple" I really mean "Steven P. Jobs" — will not publish third-party apps that compete with or replace any of the four apps in the iPhone's default "dock": Phone, Mail, Safari, and iPod.
And so my guess is that while there may not be any logic, there's at least a notion, if only in Jobs's mind, that these four apps are sacrosanct because they define the iPhone. Everything else, both from Apple and from App Store developers, is piffle, secondary to those four apps.
While I remember there being another issue stated for MailWrangler's rejection: that it didn't allow users to edit their account information, it's impossible to know at this point whether or not fixing that and resubmitting it to the App Store would have gotten the developer any further (though I hope he at least tried?)
What do you think? Could a lot of the current App-angst be traced back to Apple's (and Steve Jobs') holding the iPhone dock applications sacred? And if so, if they clearly stated in the SDK "Thou Shalt Place No Apps Before the Them", would that go anywhere towards calming developer fears, or only increasing their frustration?

Don't Touch Steve's iPhone Dock! The Reason Apps Get Rejected?
As Stephen says, there are apps that shouldn't be available if this rule applied. Maybe they just don't want apps that would compete too well with their native apps. Then again, there doesn't seem to be any logic with Apple. Some apps that do very little get through and then some are rejected for "limited functionality". Anyone think Apple are using a Magic 8 Ball to decide what gets through?
Nice thought, but if true, Steve would have "locked" the dock apps. Don't tell him but I've moved Safari and replaced it with iCal.
Interesting article. While reading this article I can't help to remember in the 80s and 90s Apple made everything a pain for game makers. I remember playing some awesome games when the first Mac came out. Then while looking for any game there was just no selection of games for the Mac or even Apples themselves. I would have figured they would app friendly after those fiasco times.
I do not begin to say I understand Apple's decisions on the App Store. But most of the the apps I mentioned have been available for a long time in the App Store. Not like NetShare which went poof. I was one of the lucky ones that bought NetShare when it was available and it still works fine. I only use it sparingly however.
It's very simple. I can't believe so many 'smart' guys are pretending not to understand it:
- Apple can do what it wants. Did you REALLY foolishly think Apple would let you write software that replaces "Phone, Mail, Safari, and iPod"???
- Users don't want to have to choose between 3 different phones, 5 different mail-clients, 7 different browsers, and 5 differ ipod apps.
Why not just say we DISAGREE with Apple... instead of saying "duh, we don't understand the NDA or why Apple is doing this horrible thing".
It's really very simple and very clear.
I think there is a point in assuming that Apple holds some things sacrosanct and too competitive, however, I believe there may be something said for Apple wanting to maintain the reliability of the phone as well.

HARRISBURG, Pa. (AP) - U.S. Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius' office says she hopes constructive dialogue can continue with Republican Gov. Tom Corbett in an effort to persuade him to go along with a taxpayer-funded expansion of health insurance to hundreds of thousands of uninsured Pennsylvanians.
Sebelius and Corbett met yesterday evening in Washington, D.C., with no comment from Corbett afterward.
Sebelius' office says the federal government will pay 100 percent of the cost of enrolling people under an expansion of Medicaid eligibility for the first three years and at least 90 percent after that. Her office says she also stressed that the federal government wants to be as flexible as possible, within the confines of the law.
Corbett is refusing to support the expansion, saying he's concerned about its long-term cost.

What Moving Taught Me About Life
I moved over the holidays. You may question my sanity--I did. Especially when I gaze at the giant gash on my upper lip. The hatch-back on my car slammed my head down, forcing my face into a razor-edged box lid. For a minute there, I was a bloody mess.
The bright side? I'm closer to the city by 15 minutes. I pass Frank Lloyd Wright buildings every morning on my daily walks. And lots of writers live in my neighborhood. Here's what my move taught me:
1. Technology has made me a little crazy. AT&T is a dinosaur worthy of extinction. After many repair calls and complaints, I can still hear right-wing radio in the background of my phone calls. My Internet has failed numerous times. Yet technology, especially social media, nips at my heels urging me to stay connected or die the shameful death of irrelevance.
2. I own too much stuff. I tossed, gave away, recycled and took stock of my life through the handling of possessions. Purging is good. My life is many pounds lighter now. And just in time to start a new year.
3. Home is where the heart is. I like it here. My kids love it here. I miss the old place with its 6 ft. windows and oak staircase. But so what? If the people I love are happy, I'm happy.
The Hartman Group has a pithy report about the ideas and trends they think will stick in 2010 and beyond. Guess what? Social media isn't one of them. Frugality isn't either.
During the move, I tweeted less and neglected this blog, sorry. And after taking stock in 2009, I made a vow to buy less in 2010. So, I guess half of my equation matches the Hartman Group's formula. The question on my mind is this: how do those of us who use social media for business stay connected without losing our connection to the "real" things?
Now to tackle those last few boxes...
Thanks to Robert S. Donovan for the photo.

goodness, sorry to hear about the injury.
I am happy to hear the move has been positive for you
I too, after moving can say in 2010, that a theme for me includes less purchasing. I worry tremendously about consumerism as if my concerns would somehow alter the planet - this thing, this buying stuff is so big
I personally am seeing the power of social media more and more and continually trying to find like minded.
a recent coffee clan meets up once a month ...we report in on what's working what's not - they introduced me to bitly and a tweetdeck tutorial is pending - they are total twitter geeks. I hope I can learn from them.
Ironically we meet in person to really connect

The Spring Season: Maybelline Warm Me Up Lipstick
The Spring Season: Maybelline Warm Me Up Lipstick
Maybelline Warm Me Up (#235) Lipstick ($7.49) is a beautiful shade of slightly milky-medium pink with a yellow undertone. It has just a smidgen of shimmer and a very creamy look. It's smooth, easy to apply, and wears well for a solid three to four hours. I love that it's a full color coverage shade, too–it gives me a quick and easy, everyday pink that I can wear alone or with smoked out eyes. Maybelline's ColorSensational Lipstick line is really impressive–the shades I've tried so far have been wearable, creamy, and pack good color pigmentation to boot. If you've been hoping for a more affordable yellow-based pink, this might be it!
Is this the perfect pink lipstick for you? Would you wear it?
The Spring Season is a series of posts featuring my favorite soft beige, coral, and pink lipsticks and lipglosses — all perfect for the first blossom of spring — that runs through March 2010.

A corporation was created three years ago. I am the majority investor and there is another minority investor. We have a manager who runs the location for us who seems to be skimming pretty much everything of the top. Unfortunately, I did not do my due diligence when starting on this investment and have only recently had time to sort through the mess that has been created.

We have a manager who runs the location for us who seems to be skimming pretty much everything of the top. Unfortunately, I did not do my due diligence when starting on this investment and have only recently had time to sort through the mess that has been created.
Apparently, a form was filed with NY state at inception and a certificate of incorporation exists. I have not been able to get any of the paperwork from the manager and had to request that this certificate be mailed to me from New York state.
On the certificate of incorporation form i received, the manager is lsited as the incorporater. On this form no where, is my name or the minority investor's name listed. After speaking with the manager, it seems that no further articles or anything were filed. Over the last two years there has been no profit, only loss and no income taxes have been filed. We have paid sales taxes.
What needs to be done to clean up the situation? As of now am I even the legal owner of the corporation given that my and the minority investor's names are not on the certificate but I invested over 100k into this business.
Any help advice you may have would be great. Feel free to email me directly at email@example.com

I agree, thats why dealing in the business world as a detached investor is risky. Especially if you are more hands off, and you are trusting people. When i Invest in companies, I make sure there is contracts signed, with witnesses and everything is known, i am a pessimest and expect the worst in people, so i try and cover myself. Have you resolved anything regarding this in the meantime? Please update the thread when you find out more, or contact a lawyer. I am interested in finding out the resoultion.
phanio | Contributor | 6/16/2009 - 5:44 am
Once you get the documents from the State - there should be a section that outlines your authority to change management. Also, are there any financials or audited financials that you can review? If audited financials - talk to the CPA to see if you can find specifics.
BuzGuy | Contributor | 5/11/2009 - 11:35 am
Well, this is a sticky situation and I'd suggest you hire an attorney who handles disolutions and creations of corporations. I'd assume you could ammend the current corporation, however I'm not to sure if you can do exactly what needs to be done. My advice is if you're in 100k+ for an investment an attorney is the best way to go and make sure everything is done properly this time.
sbbarca | Contributor | 6/15/2009 - 12:01 am
Since I cannot give advice because you're in New York, initially it MIGHT be good news that you're not listed. So you may only lose your investment and you MIGHT not be on the hook for the other debts. That being said, I strongly recommend you seek a business attorney in New York who has specific experience in these matters. And now's the time to start getting all your paperwork together and be prepared to show your attorney everything you've got. Good luck!

November videos focus on strong women
By Michael Barrett, For the Express-News : November 8, 2013
Photo By Keystone-France / Gamma-Keystone via Getty ImagesIngrid Bergman (above, confronting a tyke) made three films with Roberto Rossellini, among them "Stromboli" in 1950.
November videos include the Superman reboot
Off the beaten path, Alice Winocur's
Neil Jordan's
Miguel Gomes'
Three shorts are included as a bonus, showing her as a charming and self-possessed trouper, as is the feature "Captain January" (later remade for Shirley Temple). In this very typically old-fashioned mix of laughs and sentiment, she plays an orphan living with an old codger in a lighthouse.
When Ingrid Bergman wrote to director Roberto Rossellini in 1949 and offered to work with him, it touched off an affair, a marriage (after two divorces) and a tidal wave of scandal. Lost in the furor were the very personal films they made together, but Criterion has put together one of the most important boxes of the year to correct that.
A new label, Cohen Film Collection, is trying to rival Criterion with its DVDs and Blu-rays of French classics hitting disc for the first time, notably René Clément's thriller
James Dean's three star roles make their Blu-ray debuts.

He graduated from Champlain Valley Union High School (CVU) in 1976. In 1984, he moved to the Mad River Valley where Terry spent the majority of his life living and working.
For many years Terry owned and operated his own landscaping/logging business. More recently, he was employed by Sugarbush Resort, FG White and as a long haul truck driver. At the time of his passing he was working for T. Wayne Hill Trucking in Florida.
Terry's hobbies included many years as a stock car driver at "The Nations Site of Excitement" Thunder Road in Barre, VT, and Plattsburg's' Airborne Speedway as well as spending time at camp on Lake Carmi with family and fishing with his stepfather.
He moved to Florida in recent years to care for his mother and stepfather.
Terry is survived by his third wife, Barbara (Bryant) Roy of Vergennes; his mother, Geraldine (Geri) Lyman of Winter Haven; a daughter, Jessica (Heath) Swan and her husband Richard of Fairfax, and her mother Tina Heath of Barre; a daughter, Kailey Roy and her fiancé Werther Bentiné-Torres of Fayetteville, NC, and a son, Jordan Roy of Fayston, and their mother, Susan (McKenney) Klein; two stepbrothers, Greg Lyman of Hinesburg and his family and Brian Lyman of Fairfax and his family. He was predeceased by his father, Wilfred Roy, in 1974 and his stepfather, Rodney "Bud" Lyman, in 2012.
Graveside internment services will be held in the spring and further details will follow this announcement.

Is business booming in the NBA? You would think so, judging from a slew of recent published reports highlighting the spike in new season ticket sales this year, in the wake of major off-season buzz highlighted by the LeBron James "Decision" to leave Cleveland for Miami. As of September 21, new season ticket sales across the league totaled 50,000, a jump from about 36,000 at the same point last year. Renewal rates from existing season ticket holders are coming in at 80%, compared to 75% last season.
Some in the press are touting the improved numbers as impediments to Commissioner David Stern's poverty cries as he readies for his upcoming collective bargaining battle with the players union. Stern has estimated $370 million in losses for 2009-10, with similar expectations for this year. Do the numbers really show a league awash in new cash? Hardly. Netting out "new" season ticket sales against the number of last season's plan holders that didn't renew shows little, if any, growth.
The missing piece of the puzzle is this: how does an 80% renewal rate translate into actual ticket numbers? Clubs generally don't release precise numbers of season ticket holders, but industry insiders confirm that 10 clubs have season ticket bases over 10,000, with a couple of others very close to that number (and no doubt a couple of teams, such as the Lakers, have been well above the 10,000 level for awhile). No NBA team has less than 3,000 season ticket holders. So a conservative estimate of 8,000 season ticket holders per team, on average, translates to 240,000 across the 30-team league. If 80% renewed this year, that leaves 20%, or 48,000, that didn't. In other words, the 50,000 "new" season tickets sold this year just barely cover the number of last year's plan holders that didn't come back (and if the average team has 9,000 season ticket holders – which very possible – then the new sales don't cover the lost sales at all).
Bottom line: sales are flat. They're a little better than last year's awful season, when some clubs were resorting to stuffing more games into mini plans (11 games for the price of eight, etc.) and compelling players to show up at a local gas station to spend an hour filling fans' tanks. But let's hold off on the "NBA is Back" theme. Outside of a few hot spots, teams are still working hard to sell tickets.

Perry Presidential scoop: Governor bills Texas taxpayers $294K for out-of-state trips
"At a time when state budget reductions were used to help offset a multibillion-dollar revenue shortfall, taxpayers were billed for more than $294,000 in security detail expenses for out-of-state trips by Gov. Rick Perry or his wife, according to records released by the Texas Department of Public Safety.
"Destinations included the Bahamas in January for a family vacation and trips to Amsterdam, Madrid and New York by Anita Perry alone — visits that Perry spokeswoman Allison Castle said were for economic development."[Read More]
Commentary: The Texas Supreme Court and Legislature help Rick Perry cloak travel security expenses
Unfortunately, the Texas Legislature and the state Supreme Court have teamed up to make it almost impossible for journalists to access details of those expenditures, even months or years after the trips are concluded.[Read More]
Perry Watch: Governor convinces Texas Legislature to keep his security costs a state secret
At Perry's urging, lawmakers inserted language into SB1 that will keep the details of travel vouchers submitted by his Department of Public Safety security team secret for 18 months after trips are completed. Both the Texas House and Senate passed the bill Tuesday.[Read More]
Cartel violence is 'real and escalating,' John Cornyn says after border shootout
The San Antonio Republican said the Obama administration is in a state of denial over the rising violence connected with narcotraffickers and increasing incidences of "spillover violence" inside the United States.[Read More]
Attorney General Greg Abbott: Obama should be beefing up Texas border security, not cracking jokes about it
Last week in El Paso, President Barack Obama proclaimed our border secure. The president all but ridiculed those who refuse to accept his proclamation that the Obama administration has answered Americans' concerns about border security. Obama even joked about those who believe the federal government has not done enough to secure the border: "Maybe they'll say we need a moat," the president said. "Or alligators in the moat."
Perhaps the president's glib remarks can be blamed on the fact that the El Paso trip marked the first border visit of his presidency. For those of us who live and work in border states, the situation is neither funny nor solved. In reality, border violence is escalating and vast sectors of the border remain unsecure.[Read More]
On Capitol Hill, Texas officials dispute Obama's claim that the border is secure
