Abstract We consider a mathematical model for the coevolution of a plant's defense against herbivores and the herbivore's ability to exploit the plant. The result of coevolution is predicted using the phase portrait of trait value dynamics and contour plots of fitnesses. The following results are derived: (1) The fitnesses of both plant and herbivore are higher at an "armless" state in which both plant and herbivore invest a minimum amount of energy and/or resources in defense and feeding respectively, than at the coevolutionarily stable state (CSS); (2) Perpetual increase in the trait values of both species may occur when the marginal costs of defense and feeding abilities decrease as these abilities increase; (3) If the marginal costs of defense and feeding abilities increase as the abilities increase, there is a coevolutionary equilibrium with finite trait values; (4) There may be more than one coevolutionarily stable state (CSS).

AUSTRALIA: Vincorp to sell out to wine rival
Vincorp, the small, struggling, Australian winery is expected to announce by the end of the week that it has sold its assets to private winery Hope Estate.Negotiations for the sale are in the final stages with two other parties which had expressed interest in Vincorp being excluded from the sale process.Vincorp has been seeking a buyer for more than a year following continuing trading troubles since it listed in early 1998. It lost about $A3m in 1998-1999 and a further $A1m in 1999-2000.Hope Estate, formerly Hill of Hope until it agreed to a name change with CA Henschke & Co, producers of the super premium Hill of Grace Shiraz, is a 2ml winery operating at the former Saxonvale winery site in the Hunter Valley, just north of Sydney.It was due to settle this week the $1.045m purchase of Vincorp's Western Australian vineyard at Donnybrook.Vincorp's major assets include the premium Virgin Hills label for which it has an agreement with the UK's Virgin Airlines giving it extensive global rights, a 250,000 litre winery and 56ha of vineyards.Chris Snow

With your incorrect spelling and grammar I can see why you did so well in college. I'm also pretty sure that your house has to do with your stepfather.First off, why are you both hiding behind user names and not your real names? Second, I did not get fired from Flatiron. I put in a notice so I could study for entrance exam for Medical School. As far as the extent of my talent, I graduated Cum Laude (3.6) from a top 100 college while working full time. Oh and bought a house at the age of 20. I have a huge loyal client base at restaurants.
I do have a reason to be bitter about Flatiron. It employs some very good people; Hardworking & honest people. Checks began to bounce, tips were not being paid on time and the staff was being yelled at more frequently. All of this happened, while the owner reduced tip shares and increased percentage required by parties to pay (28%). The owner would drink and eat with his friends and family, running up large tabs, and then pass out bad checks to people or postpone banquet checks.
I have no beef when any of the employees that work there. I only have problems with those who hide behind illusive usernames and crony business people. Stop blaming things on the economy. Every other restaurant is busy in this town.
As for being fired from Miss Ollie's, yes, I was fired. The reason being the manager at the time came in drunk one night causing a scene. I called the owner the next day to tell him about it and he apologizes for the incident. A few days later, he called my me, leaving a voicemail firing me. I was fired from a place that now pours well liquor into their bottles of Grey Goose and Crown Royal. I feel really bad about being fired from a place like that. I stood up for the things that I knew to be right and it did not sit well with mgmt and owner. That manager quit the next week. Coincidence, I think not.

Sorry about the mishaps in the grammar. I tend to get upset when people attack my character and then hide their identity.
My stepfather has nothing to do with my house. I obtained the loan for the house without my parents help.

How can a place that claims to be the "finest" restaurant in town that charges out the frame prices, for the same quality of nicer establishments that dont charge as much, have giant roaches? My husband and I frequent there often and it was a special night for us, so we went to flatiron. To my astonishment there was a giant roach crawling up the wall next to my seat, I politely grabbed it in a napkin and gave it to my server. When I went to move my plate I felt something odd on the bottom of it, and noticed two more small roaches on the bottom of my plate! Gross!!! I am not spending $200 dollars on a "nice" meal to clean roaches of the wall...Maybe you all should call Terminx. Work on your continuing business problems instead of claiming to be elite. That's more bugs then I have ever seen out in a dining room, and if it's like that in public view think of how it is in the kitchen where I am sure they run rampent.

He hasnt changed a bit. Still in there every night drinking bottles of wines and food with girlfriend and friends. Never rings up anything and doesnt ever tip who waits on him. He is a sorry person to work for. Such a shame he has managed to stay in business. Fyi for those who still eat there mr frank gets 3.2% of all our food sales for bs reasons and we still have to tip the bar on top of that! And when there r large parties there he will pocket the gratuity and only pay servers $25 an hour so we may make $75when he gets anywhere from $100 & up...parties usually run $1000 plus so add gratuity to that..last party I worked frank got $800! He will go down eventually!

What do you mean exactly I have work event booked in about 3 weeks with them?
#57 Oct 27, 2012
I've heard all that lately. It has always been known that he resents his servers who make good tips and has always tried to find a way to get his share of them. There have been a lot of great servers there who have left (probably carried out the front door by the roaches that run rampant). But the place just isn't the same.

It's been lackluster and subpar since the doors were opened. What a sham! Don't believe every thing you see a picture of in VIP.
#59 Oct 31, 2012
if he is doing all these f'ed up things to his employees, then why hasn't the better business bureau been called? a restaurant owner cannot steal tips from his employees. it would be pretty easy to set him up and present the proof to the bbb. then he would go down like he (from what it sounds like) damn well should.
#60 Oct 31, 2012
THE BBB is a joke. If you pay them a higher membership you get a higher rating and the BBB has no ability to do ANYTHING other than say an issue was UNRESOLVED....
#61 Nov 1, 2012
that sucks. it's sad what money can do these days... this A**hole needs to go down, judging from what I've read. a good, honest restaurant owner/manager is a dime a dozen these days. I won't be going back in flat iron knowing what I know now.
#62 Nov 5, 2012
He has been reported several times to the labor board. He studies the laws to know exactly how much he can steal from his employees without getting into trouble. His actions are within legal boundaries when it comes to his taking tips out of his servers pockets, but is it ethical? Ask those who have nearly gone to jail for unpaid child support, when in fact has deducted it from their checks and not paid.
United States
#63 Nov 5, 2012
Not ethical at all! He rides his business on his servers tips just to keep the doors open. My daughter worked there for a little while. One night a server broke a glass in the walkway out on the floor and frank wouldnt let anyone sweep the glass up bc it would disturb the guest so he'd rather them pick the slivers of glass up w their fingers or leave it for someone to fall. Lawsuit hello! Dont get me started on all his health code violations...i guess when u own your own business u can do things the way u want health code doesnt apply to frank!
#64 Nov 5, 2012
This type of conversation really saddends me. I know for a fact that these false accusations are nothing more than that....false. Anytime someone in this world tries to better themselves by working, fighting for what they believe in, etc; and is somewhat successful; other people will try to bring them down. Misery loves company. Go out and open a restaurant; in today's world, small business owners are being taken down by the government for taxes, because the small business cannot afford to pay these government officials under the table like big corporations do.
As far as "stealing" tips from the servers goes....think about this statistic....when you take your car to be serviced, let's use Wal-Mart(big coporate company) and the bill is $900....do you honestly think the mechanic that serviced that car received $900 for his 2 hours of work. It's called OVERHEAD! And on that note, by show of hands, how many of you people on here.. own, or have ever owned, your OWN business?
#65 Nov 5, 2012
Again, overhead costs are the reason for tip out. Every restaurant in the business, makes employees pay a tip out. And you wrote you only get $25 an hour. GREED......that's all I have to say about that. Most people in this world, who have education do not make $25 an hour. And for an owner of a business to pay himself is a bad thing? How do you expect that person to live. Go open your own business and let me know how it goes. Obviously, you need to further your education if you believe that your are worth more than $25 an hour for serving food and drinks. Where are you working now?

Understanding Your Stress Hormone --Cortisol
in Health
Join Partners in Health and Biz talk show host Gail Dixon as we share how we can make the hormone, cortisol, work for us, despite the bad reputation it has come to carry.
Commonly known as the "stress hormone," it;s produced in part, by the adrenal glands when we're under pressure and perceive a threat. The pituitary gland determines how much hormone the adrenals should release to help us fight or flee.
This alarm system works beautifully -- until it doesn't. Yet, without it we're helpless.

Why Can't I Meditate? How to Get Your Mindfulness Practice on Track

Why Can't I Meditate? How to get your mindfulness practice on track with Nigel Wellings
Meditation is supposed to be a practice that's relaxing and beneficial...so why is it so hard to commit to? While many people have taken workshops in meditation, a significant number don't maintain their practice for long after the class is finished.
Mindfulness can help us relax and is great for coming to grips with thoughts that make us depressed or anxious, but it can also bring us into a more intimate relationship with ourselves--a prospect that can make some feel uncomfortable. Yes, lots of good things come out of meditation practice, but keeping it up is challenging.
This is where Why Can't I Meditate? comes in. Full of practical ways to help our mindfulness practice flourish, this book also features guidance from a wide spectrum of secular and Buddhist mindfulness teachers, and personal accounts by new meditators on what they find difficult and what helps them overcome those blocks.
Nigel Wellings is a psychoanalytic psychotherapist who has been teaching and writing about the relationship between psychotherapy and Buddhism for the last sixteen years. He has served as a Director of Training at the Centre for Transpersonal Psychology, is a founding member of The Forum for Contemplative Studies and a facilitator on The Bath and Bristol Mindfulness Courses.

Introducing WEX Health & Transitioning to Defined Contribution
in Business
On this episode, the hosts talk private exchanges, defined contribution and more with special guests from WEX Health and the Council for Affordable Health Coverage.
For the first segment, the hosts welcome Brian Ridder, VP of Healthcare Exchange Sales at WEX Health, back to the program. Brian will provide listeners with a brief overview of WEX Health, which is the result of WEX's acquisition of Evolution1 and Benaissance over the past 18 months. Additionally, Brian will provide insight into cutting-edge applications of consolidated premium billing. These applications include group-based employer billing, featuring "Review and Repair" capabilities and unique application of individual consumer consolidated billing in the retiree market leveraging account-based HRA tools.
The second guest is Joel White, President of the Council for Affordable Health Coverage, an organization whose mission is to promote policies that increase competition, maximize consumer choice and ensure everyone has access to affordable coverage. Prior to CAHC, Joel spent twelve years on Capitol Hill as professional staff, where he helped enact nine laws, including the 2002 Trade Act, which created health care tax credits; the 2003 law that established the Medicare prescription drug benefit and health savings accounts; the 2005 Deficit Reduction Act and the 2006 Tax Reform and Health Care Act, which reformed Medicare payment policies. In this interview, Joel discusses why defined contribution is a necessary transition for promoting employer choice in health coverage.

Remember last December when we found Fulla the Muslim Barbie? Well it didn't take long for the Orthodox Jewish Prayer Barbie to follow. It's all good, but I've already ordered the Vincent Van Gogh Action Figure, and I'm happy with that!
However, as hip as the Jewish Orthodox Prayer Barbie seems, one Boing Boing reader suggests the doll is not accurate, "Strictly speaking, Orthodox Jewish women don't wear teffilin or tallit during prayer; in fact, many Orthodox Jews object strongly to the trend in the more liberal branches of Judaism permitting/encouraging women to do so. Since laying tefillin and wearing tallit is much more common with Conservative than Reform Jews, the post should probably be titled 'Progressive Conservative Jewish Prayer Barbie'."

Understanding What Makes You Buy & How Retailers Get You to Buy MORE
January 19, 2016
Retailers spend billions of dollars to understand what makes you buy something as a consumer. Understanding the psychology behind our shopping behavior can help make you a savvier shopper.
Why we buy
For a lot of folks, shopping is more than just buying something you need. It actually improves your mood.
"Picks me up when I'm down," shopper Leslie Martin told Consumer Wise host Angie Moreschi.
Psychologist Dr. Harold Shinitzky, who is he author of several books on behavior, says there's a reason you feel that way.
"When someone goes shopping there's this wonderful release of endorphins and dopamine," Dr. Shinitzky said. "It just feels good!"
Retailer Tricks to Increasing Buying
Retailers know this and spend billions to figure out how to maximize your experience so you'll buy more, for example, the layout of a store.
"Where the more desired products are on the far side of the store, so you have to see distracting things, that might increase your probability of purchasing," Shinitzky said.
Online search tools like Google track you and create pop-up ads to fit your interests.
"It's kind of big brotherish, but that's where the money's made these days," shopper Eric Long said.
"I think it's annoying and I think it's an invasion of privacy," another shopper, Cassandra Earle, said.
Appeal to Your Senses
Another thing retailers do to entice you to buy more is appeal to your senses.
At a grocery store, for example, when you walk into the fruits and vegetables section, there is high intensity lighting to make the products shine more. And they spray water on them to make them glisten, so they look more appealing. Then, you might notice you're funneled through the flowers section and bakery, both of which create lovely scents to tempt you.
"All of this is to draw you in for your senses, all five of your senses; and the more they can stimulate, the more likely you are to feel good about the environment and purchase more," said Dr. Shinitzky.
Smart Phone Tracks Buying Habits
More and more the tool of choice for tracking your buying habits is your smart phone. Location services and all those apps you download give retailers a window into how you shop. Besides what deals you click on, it also can tell researchers how long you linger in a certain location. The longer the so-called "dwell time' as they call it, the more you tend to buy.
"When someone passes 40 minutes of spending time shopping, that's the point where we start seeing 50% of all of their impulse purchasing," Dr. Shinitzky said.
Binge Shopping
Shopping can become addictive, so be on-guard for warning signs.
"Purchasing things you don't need, didn't want, can't afford… you need to really take a hard look at your decision making," Dr. Shinitzky said.
Take this insight into why you buy and how retailers try to get you to buy more and use it to empower yourself, so you can avoid impulse buying and buyer's remorse.

Nursing Home Giant to Pay $125 Million in Whistleblower Settlement
January 13, 2016
Nursing home therapy giant RehabCare has agreed to pay the government $125 million to settle a whistleblower lawsuit alleging it knowingly caused facilities it contracted with to inappropriately bill Medicare for services. Money from the settlement will be returned to the taxpayers, under the False Claims Act. The FCA makes it possible for private citizens to file suit on the government's behalf, if they learn of fraud against the government. The whistleblower ultimately gets a percentage of the money recovered.
In the lawsuit, the whistleblowers and government alleged that RehabCare, whose parent company is Kentucky-based Kindred Healthcare, set unrealistic financial goals and scheduled therapy to get maximum reimbursements regardless of patients' actual needs, according to an article in Business Insurance, a sister publication of Modern Healthcare.
Among other things, RehabCare allegedly scheduled and reported therapy after the patients' treating therapists had recommended they be discharged from therapy. It also allegedly reported that skilled therapy had been provided to patients who were sleeping at the time or otherwise unable to undergo or benefit from therapy.
The provider also allegedly placed patients in the highest therapy reimbursement levels rather than determining their levels of care based on individualized evaluations.
Two former RehabCare employees filed the original whistleblower lawsuit; one was a physical therapist and manager, and the other was an occupational therapist.

Nurse's Allegations about Medicare Lead to $7.3 Million Settlement
May 23, 2013
A nurse's allegations about excessive charges to Medicare led to a $7.3 million settlement between a Plano, Texas-based firm and the U.S. Justice Department.
Whistleblower Laura Davis' complaint involved charges for Epogen, an anemia drug used to treat dialysis patients. A "qui tam" whistleblower lawsuit filed on her behalf in Baltimore alleged that Dialysis Corporation of America billed Medicare and other government healthcare programs for more Epogen than was used.
Epogen is an intravenous medication that is used to treat anemia, a common condition afflicting patients with end-stage renal disease. Epogen vials contain a small amount of medication in excess of the labeled amount, known as "overfill," to compensate for medication that may remain in the vial after extraction and in the syringe upon administration.
The United States contends that from January 2004 through May 2011, DCA billed for 10-11% overfill whenever it administered Epogen. However, because of the types of syringes DCA used, the United States alleges that DCA was not able to withdraw and administer 10-11% overfill every time it administered Epogen to patients, and thus submitted false claims to Medicare that overstated the amount of Epogen that it was actually providing.
Dialsysis Corporation was acquired by U.S. Renal Care, which is headquartered in Plano, in June 2010.

Buy a Coffee with Just Your Name: How Much Privacy are You Willing to Give Up?
August 9, 2012
By Angie Moreschi:
Just think. You could walk into Starbucks, say your name and the barista would automatically whip up your double mocha skinny latte. No, not because you're such a frequent customer that they know who you are and what you want when you step up to the counter. This has to do with them tracking your every move through technology.
In today's big brother, cyber spy world, computer chips can pretty much let retailers know a whole heck of a lot about you and your buying habits. And now, if you'd rather not waste all that breath to tell the cashier what you want, a new app at Starbucks will do the ordering for you. All you have to do is say your name.
The Java App
Starbucks is teaming up with Square, the San Francisco company that brought us the mobile payment app. Starting this fall, 7000 Starbucks cafes will start using Pay With Square, which uses a GPS technology to indicate when a Square user is in the cafe.
All you do is install the Square app on your smart phone, and then link a credit or debit card to the account. Techno-wizardry takes it from there and identifies your location when you walk into Starbucks. Your name and picture pop up on the store's computer system, so when you're ready to order, all you have to do is say your name. The cashier matches your name and picture to their "point-of-sale" system, and voila! No need to go through all the trouble of remembering your favorite beverage's exotic description or getting your wallet out and fumbling with a credit card or cash and all that. This is just like saying, 'Hey Sal, it's me. Put it on my tab."
Technology Trumps Privacy
To make all this possible for your caffeine inducing pleasure, Starbucks is investing $25 million in the new Square system and Starbucks CEO Howard Schultz will join Square's board of directors. Pay with Square has been around for awhile, but it's mainly used by small businesses. This venture by Starbucks could really launch the company to another level.
So, starting this fall, if you choose to give another little piece of your privacy away, you can order your cup of Joe, just by saying your name. Funny thing is, paying with the Square app might make you feel like a "regular," but you've got to wonder if it's actually kind of sad that someone you really don't know at all, is going to treat you like an old pal.
Play It By Ear: What Sounds Make You Want to Buy More?
August 8, 2012
A baby's laugh. A steak sizzling. How about the sound of a soda being cracked open and poured into a glass? These are among the most powerful audio triggers that capture your attention in commercials, according to marketing expert Martin Lindstrom. In his new, best selling book Buy-ology, Lindstrom exposes tricks of the advertising trade that get you, the consumer, to buy more.
TIME Magazine recently profiled Lindstrom and his "neural marketing" research, which he uses to help Fortune 500 companies, like Pepsi and Disney, attract customers. It's a scientific way to measure consumer reaction to advertising. People are exposed to ads while hooked up to machines that monitor brain activity, pupil dilation, sweat responses and flickers in facial muscles, all of which are markers of emotion.
The technology is based on a concept that suggests the majority of human thinking takes place just below the level of controlled awareness. Turns out, what we hear can be just as powerful as what we see. For a more in-depth analysis from Lindstrom about the techniques he employes, watch the video above.
Proponents of this theory believe that this lower level of recognition is where the human brain makes determinations on what's favorable and what isn't. Therefore, marketing agencies spend millions of dollars in research to determine what sounds evoke pleasant thoughts, such as the sound of a baby laughing or a steak sizzling on the grill. It's believed that hearing these types of sounds will help you remember a certain product in a pleasing way when you are shopping.
If the sound of all this trickery makes you feel curious, click here, for the full report on neural advertising in TIME Magazine.
Are Warehouse Clubs like Costco & Sam's Worth the Cost?
July 17, 2012
Shopping at one of the big warehouse club chains, like Sam's Club, Costco and BJ's, can be an afternoon adventure for some. Lots of good deals and super-sized products can lure you in to a purchasing frenzy. But is it worth the cost? Don't look now, but you might not be saving as much as you thought.
CNBC reports that customers may believe they're paying for a chance to save money, but some experts think membership fees actually cause consumers to spend more. Membership in these club stores does not come free; each requires you to pay before you purchase a single item. Sam's Club charges $40 for basic membership, BJ's $50, and Costco $55.
Saving Money
Part of the twist with warehouse clubs is you have to make up that initial investment, before you start saving money. Certainly, you can save money, but you may end up buying more than you need in the long run. There are good deals, though. According to a Consumers' Checkbook survey published by the not-for-profit Center for the Study of Services, BJ's prices were on average 29 percent lower, Costco's 30 percent lower, and Sam's 33 percent lower than the largest supermarket chains.
Lack of Selection
The trade-off is often a lack of selection. Warehouse clubs carry a relatively small array of items in a limited range of sizes. The Consumers' Checkbook survey found that warehouse club shoppers would only be able to find about half of the products they buy at their regular supermarket. BJ's carries roughly 7,200 individual items, Sam's club about 4,900 items, and Costco around 4,000.

Up in the Air; Mixed Reviews on Airline A La Carte Fees
June 1, 2012
By Darrin Clouse :
The old saying : "The only constant is change" has held up for centuries and is applicable to many of our daily routines. I doubt that François de la Rochefoucauld was pondering the airline industry when he came up with his famous perception of our world, but it certainly applies to recent adjustments.
Many of us remember when smoking was allowed during flights, and you could even get away with calling the flight attendant "stewardess." But the changes we're experiencing these days are more related to cost, and many consumers feel they are now paying for services that they received for free in the past.
Bank of America Sues Itself
April 13, 2012
Here we go again. First, as CWN reported in 2009, Wells Fargo Sued Itself. Now, it's Bank of America's turn. Dow Jones Business Columnist and blogger Al Lewis flagged us to this latest nonsensical undertaking in the wacky world of foreclosures.
Essentially, Bank of America is foreclosing on a property on which it services the loan for an investor and holds a second mortgage. Uh-oh, that creates a bit of a conflict. What to do? Let's sue ourselves, of course. The company is literally seeking damages from itself in order to foreclose on a condo owner. The Huffington Post's Zach Carter lays out all the details here, if you're interested.
For Bank of America, this is actually not the first time it's sued itself in a foreclosure case. The company has done so at least 11 times in Palm Beach County. "Naming the second-lien holder in the suit is necessary to eliminate the junior interest," Bank of America spokeswoman Jumana Bauwens told the Huffington Post.
Back when Wells Fargo sued itself, Dow Jones Columnist Al Lewis opined, "It takes some pretty shameless lawyers and a rich culture of corporate stupidity for a company to sue itself."
I guess not much has changed.
Nigerian Scam Targets Lawyers
April 10, 2012
By Angie Moreschi:
Okay, this might have a bit of a Karma feel to it, but you've still got to wonder, how exactly do people keep falling for the Nigerian "pigeon drop" scam. That's where you are contacted and told you can get a much bigger pay-out, but first, you just have to send some of your money to make the transaction possible. Right, good luck with that.
This time, attorneys, who you might think would know better, became the target, and, yes, many fell for it. Among them, the Minneapolis law firm of Milavetz, Gallop & Millavetz (MGM). The Minneapolis StarTribune reports MGM became a victim after receiving an email from someone claiming to be a Korean woman who needed help in securing a $400,000 legal settlement for an injury in their area.
As it turns out, MGM was not alone. The government had begun a secret investigation of Nigerian collection scams that target U.S. attorneys. A Nigerian man and a Canadian resident were indicted in the case, but much of it remains under seal. Still, the government says the two were part of an international conspiracy targeting lawyers and law firms, which nailed 80 victims to the tune of at least $32 million. In all, there were some 300 known targets, with attempts to steal more than $100 million.
Scamming law firms
So, how do highly educated, skeptical attorneys fall for this? According to the federal indictment in Pennsylvania, it went down like this: A co-conspirator contacts a law firm, usually by e-mail, seeking help to collect a legal settlement or payments from a divorce or real estate transaction. Another co-conspirator poses as a representative of the party who owes the money and then delivers a counterfeit check. After the check supposedly clears, the money is wired to a bank, usually in Asia, from which it disappears. Click here to read the full story in the Minneapolis StarTribune.
Law Firm Blames its Bank
Of course, we're talking about lawyers being ripped off here, so while the money has disappeared, they believe someone needs to pay. In the case of MGM, the law firm is going after the bank, which frankly continues the whole karma thing.
Robert Milavetz of MGM says its bank, Wells Fargo, is at fault and should pay them back. The firm deposited the fake check from the Nigerian scammers in its Wells Fargo account. Then, in an effort to perform due diligence called the bank to make sure the check had cleared. Bank employees apparently told the firm that "yes" indeed the check had cleared. Of course, it had not. So, when the firm wired the money to Asia, their "client" disappeared with the loot. If we learned anything from the mortgage meltdown, it was to be careful about trusting what your bank tells you… but we digress.
In the end, Milavetz is going after Wells Fargo alleging the bank knowingly engaged in a transaction that involved criminal activity or was knowingly blind to the facts and law. The firm is seeking $396,500 from the bank. Wells Fargo issued a brief statement on the lawsuit saying, "We believe the allegations have no merit. We will vigorously defend, and expect to prevail."
It's little comfort to know that even supposedly smart guys get duped by this, but if you take anything away here, remember, there's no such thing as easy money!

text: Have You Seen This Man? By James Stanley July 6, 2011 8:29 PM Share on Facebook Share on Twitter SPD News Release The Shreveport Police Department needs your help to find a man who has not been seen since early yesterday morning. Rickey Pierson has been missing since July 5, 2011 when he left his home in west Shreveport driving his silver four-door 2008 Pontiac Grand Prix bearing Louisiana license plate "PYZ601". Mr. Pierson is a 54 year old black male who stands five feet eight inches tall and weighs about 190 pounds. While detectives do not believe foul play is involved at this early stage of their investigation, they are concerned for the welfare Mr. Pierson.

With the economy crashing and burning, many former marketing clients are contacting me to pick my brain about new directions they can take in their careers.
Simultaneously, a lot of midsize companies — eager to keep their clients and expand their prospect lists — are calling for help to create e-mail and e-newsletter campaigns. But they balk at my senior-level pricing — and the fact that I offer only the creative direction and copywriting.
Within this, I see a need and a niche.
Clearly, the newly available marketing professionals from the Fortune 500 world can help out these midlevel companies. It's a win-win, but there's a catch.
Most midsize company executives view e-campaigns as something that only requires a shoestring budget. The prevailing notion seems to be that you can just jot off a few short articles, plug them into a template, hit "send," and wait for the revenue to come in.
It's a wee bit more complicated and expensive than that — as any of us in the business know.
Even my own little e-newsletter for my fundraising practice called Giving Back, which is just one e-tip and a note, takes about five to seven hours a week to write, edit, proofread, flow into a template, and broadcast. While it only costs me about $100 a week in hourly fees for my assistant and Web guy, it also takes about three hours of my time at $200 an hour — for about a total $600 weekly investment. That's not to mention the upfront time and expense it took to design the original template, create the newsletter archive on my Web site, and get the database in shape.
Now I know you're already doing the math and saying, "Wow, I could do that for way less." The fact is, you probably could do it for less with a lower priced writer, if you had an assistant who knew HTML — or better yet, if you knew HTML yourself.
And that's the point. My suggestion for all the unemployed marketing professionals who directed strategy, but never had to learn all the nitty-gritty of HTML, or e-newsletter design, or maintaining a database — learn those skills now while looking for the next job.
By creating a whole e-newsletter package to sell to midsize businesses for a reasonable fee (rather than bringing in a high-priced team), you have a really good crack at getting clients at midsize firms. And once you do a crackerjack job of creating a company's e-newsletter, there's a pretty good chance you'll also get to use your marketing skills on a wider range of projects — such as creating direct marketing campaigns, Web banners, blogs, etc.
In time, you'll either have a really nice little business where you call the shots, or a whole new set of skills you can use in your next big corporate job.
Think of it as job training for the new economy. While my practice is holding steady and I'd much rather continue with the high-level creative strategy and messaging I've done for years, I may see you in HTML class some day. And in fact, I think I'd enjoy it!
What changes do you see coming to the B2B email world in the new economy? Share them with Karen.
