By: Char S.
It was a chaotic time of my life. My marriage had fallen apart, my job was not going well, I was in a state of depression and could not provide necessities for my young sons because of the self-doubt and negative focus. I felt all alone in a desparate time.
On this particular night, I had just climbed in my bed and layed my head on my pillow, when I heard footsteps coming towards my bedroom. I was paralyzed with fear, I closed my eyes in hopes whoever it was would just leave. I felt a hand brushing my hair from my face as to comfort me. Still completely frightened I could not move. What seemed like a slowing of time was actually all a matter of a few minutes, if not seconds. Now I felt a cool breeze blowing on my face, I thought to myself, I need to get out of this situation, I opened my eyes and jumped out of bed. In front of me stood a very tall transparent figure of an elder man. I blinked and he was gone.
The next day was a new day for me. I knew in my heart I was not alone and could not let my beautiful sons see their mother in such a sad state any longer.
I thank the Lord for sending me this vision of hope. It gave me the nudge necessary to get on with my life in a positive way.

Getting the most out of your iPod battery
Ask iLounge offers readers the opportunity to get answers to their iPod-, iPhone-, iPad-, iTunes-, or Apple TV-related questions from a member of the iLounge editorial team.

Q: I have a new 4G 20Gb iPod. I have read many myths and theories about how to get the best battery life out of my iPod. Is there a clear answer to this question:
When I'm sitting at my desk at work listening to my iPod through speakers, I am next to an AC outlet; it would be easy for me to plug my iPod into this outlet and keep it charging. Is it better for the battery to leave it plugged in like this, or does it not make a difference?
- Johanna
A: It's true that understanding iPod batteries can be complicated, especially because there is a great deal of uninformed opinion floating around. The best place to go is Apple's FAQ about iPod batteries; this document says, "The battery stops charging when it's full. Leaving it connected won't charge it any more. It's perfectly OK to leave it connected so it can charge overnight, for example."
To learn more about making your battery last as long as possible, check this Apple document, which gives you tips on getting the most out of your battery.

Abit BD7II-RAID i845E Motherboard Review
In usual Abit style, the BD7II-RAID features all of the CPU, Memory and AGP adjustments even the most hardcore tweaker could ask for. Firstly, Abit's SoftMenu III allows you to adjust FSB speeds up to 250MHz in 1MHz increments. Additionally, you can lock the PCI bus speed at 33MHz, 37MHz, 44MHz FSB / 3 or FSB / 4. This allows you to increase the FSB without increasing the PCI bus, thus removing your PCI devices from being a bottleneck whilst overclocking. The CPU:DRAM ratio is also adjustable, from the settings 1:1, 3:4 or "By Spd". For those with unlocked processors, the multiplier can also be adjusted up to 24x.
As far as voltage is concerned, the VCore and DRAM voltages are adjustable, with available VCore adjustments of +5%, +10% and +15%. DRAM voltage can be adjusted from 2.5V, 2.6V and 2.7V. Using a core voltage setting of +15% and default DRAM voltages, I was able to overclock my 2GHz Pentium 4 (Willamette) up to 2.32GHz (20x116)! This is a massive overclock considering that the processor is not based on the newer Northwood core and that only air-cooling was used (Alpha PAL8942). At 2.32GHz my system remained extremely stable and I was able to run Prime95 for 24 hours straight without one lockup.
In summary, I can't help but be slightly disappointed with the Abit BD7II-RAID. The board itself is stable, feature packed, highly tweakable and has an excellent layout. However, it is severely let down by the i845E chipset and its lack of DDR333 support. The recommended retail price for the board is around $US130, which, although this is quite cheap, competing solutions based around DDR333 chipsets from VIA and SiS are not only priced similarly, but also provide significantly higher performance at stock speeds.
The bottom line is, although the BD7II-RAID is an excellent board as far as stability, feature-set and overclockability is concerned, the i845E chipset's poor performance when compared to the competition makes it impossible for me to recommend. If only Abit decided to use a DDR333 supporting chipset from VIA or SiS, the BD7II-RAID could have been very successful.
- Pros
* Great layout
* Highly overclockable
* Stable
* Relatively cheap
* Many integrated features
- Cons
* Performance is disappointing when compared to competing solutions.
* Lack of DDR333 support
Rating - 7.5/10

Sydney heading for a soggy working weekDrew Casper-Richardson, Sunday March 23, 2014 - 10:19 EDT
Sydneysiders have enjoyed a warm start to autumn however some cooler, soggy days are on the way.
The running average maximum for March this year is 26.9 degrees, 2.2 above the long-term figure. Every day since March 3rd has warmed above the average of 24.7 degrees. This trend will continue on Sunday as a warm airmass filters through the Sydney Basin ahead of a trough. The trough is expected to move through Sydney late on Sunday bringing a weak cool change.
On Monday the trough will stall and linger over much of eastern Australia. To the south, a large high will direct a deep moisture laden airmass over the east, adding significant moisture to the unstable atmosphere. These two features will combine to bring a cooler and soggy start to the working week for those in Sydney.
Sydney is forecast to reach a more seasonal 25 degrees on Monday and 24 on Tuesday. Although it is likely to remain at least a couple of degrees below this for much of the day, especially as heavier showers pass over.
Showers are likely to fall through much of Monday but will become heavier and more frequent later in the day and through the evening. Widespread falls of 20-40mm are likely and isolated falls of 100mm are possible. Showers will persist through Tuesday but will ease as the day progresses. Falls of 10-20mm are likely throughout the Basin with falls of 50mm possible, more likely about the southern suburbs.
The rest of the week won't be as wet but showers will hang around the Basin until at least Friday.

The Pfizer offer for AstraZeneca is going to rock the biotech sector.
How will it effect NVAX?
Who knows, but it certainly will.
I would like to see some thoughts from the board gurus.
Sentiment: Hold
As for what can impact Novavax?:
1) M&A activity is alive and well. The bio-tech "bubble" is now in question....
- What happens to bio-tech sector indices, such as IBB, will be interesting.
2) MERS is becoming more troubling, but *not* yet out-of-control H2H.
- Note that H1N1 was very busy April to May in 2009.
- Oh, Novavax spiked through the rest of the 2009 year... in response to H1N1.
- Then, H1N1 became a part of the seasonal trivalent vaccine in 2013. Hmmm.
- MERS is becoming more troubling April and may 2014.... will watch with concern.
3) H7N9 is in the viral cauldron, just having jumped from birds to humans in 2012.
4) Novavax's RSV clinical trial results due in weeks and has the potential of rocket fuel.
5) Unknowns, such as H7N9 outbreak, H1N1 outbreak, dangerous seasonal impact. Ebola....
6) The viral cauldron continues to boil and brew.... Novavax stands at the ready.....
IMHO, the situation has shifted more in favor to the longs of Novavax than the shorts.
We'll know more as this 2nd *full* week of Q2 trading brings in all trading houses, etc.
Great post. Im eyeing this one. Lot of potential.
Sentiment: Strong Buy

I recently hired Simonett's Catering to cater my daughter's 5th birthday (didn't wanna cook!) not only were they cheaper than a pizzeria or restaurant, but it was delicious! I order off of one of their party packages for 12 people and it was so reasonably priced! AND we had leftovers!!! Also what was great it that I ordered a cake right through them, instead of having to go to a bakery. It wasn't on the menu, but their ad said to just ask, and I did! They threw in some complementary chocolate chip cookies which were soooo good! Two thumbs up Simonetti's!

BAD BUSSINESS M & D Repair Services
Posted in the Norristown Forum

My fiance and I are from Southern Ohio. We traveled to Norristown PA for my fiances job. After we arrived our transmission went out on our car. We took the car to a shop called M & D Auto Repair Service on Main Street to have a new transmission put in. We picked the car up on October 18th and paid a bill of 1400 dollars to get 70 miles down the road and the transmission went out again. I called the shop and the said they would have a tow truck pick the car up that night and make it right. Weeks and weeks went on and nobody from the shop called to let us know that they picked up the car. They would not answer our phone calls or call us back. Finally today November 16, we get them on the phone. They tell us they have the car and an employee has been driving it back and forth to work for the past three weeks to make sure it was running. We asked why nobody had let us know, and they had no answer. They were trying to keep the car. Well again they said they would call us back and tell us when we could pick the car up, again no phone calls from them. So I called the police and reported what they had done. Then the manager calls my finace and tells him to tell his %$#$%$ girlfriend to stay out of the bussiness. So I advice anyone not to use this shop if your car is broke, its been a nightmare and after paying 1400 dollars all we got so far was no car and the name calling. Dean is the manager that has conducted these problems.

I'm sorry you've had such a horrible experience with those guys. I use them for all my routine maintenance, brakes, ect.
Tranmissions can be very tricky, unless you're buying brand new (~$3-4k).$1400 tells me you bought a rebuildable. Nonetheless, that doesn't mean the manager should handle the situation the way you say he did. There's no excuse for it whatsoever! Try calling one of the local news affiliates.

This application is a continuation-in-part application based on U.S. application Ser. No. 12/047,816, filed Mar. 13, 2008, which claims priority to U.S. provisional application No. 60/895,152, filed Mar. 16, 2007, both of which are incorporated herein by reference.
This invention relates to a silencing unit for HVAC (heating, ventilating, and air conditioning) systems, and more particularly, to a silencer with an integral condensation plate.
Commercial HVAC systems may have a contained "Fan Coil" ("FC") for the purpose of providing an outlet for commercial ventilation systems into the rooms of a building or other structure equipped with an HVAC system. An FC typically consists of the following components: 1) centrifugal fan, 2) motor, 3) insulated casing, 4) air inlet (with or without damper), and 5) Heating/Cooling Coils.
In commercial HVAC installations, a "silencer" (or "attenuator") is often attached to the inlet or outlet of an FC in order to attenuate the sound produced by the high-velocity air entering the FC. Such silencers have typically comprised an air duct (typically from three to five feet in length) that is lined internally with insulation to attenuate the noise produced by the air flowing through the FC. Such internal insulation is also known as a "baffle" and is usually held in place by perforated sheet metal. The perforations in the metal allow the air traveling through the silencer to interact with the insulation material contained inside the baffle. The silencer is attached to the inlet or the outlet of the FC and acts to attenuate the noise that is produced by the FC. This attenuation is achieved due to the conversion of acoustic energy into heat energy as the air molecules inside the silencer create friction when they collide with the lined insulation.
The noise generated by an FC or other HVAC component can be separated into two components: 1) noise due to the air disturbance created in the immediate vicinity of the rotating fan blades and 2) aerodynamic noise due to the fan-induced air flow that has variable pressure regions within the fan discharge velocity profile and the air flow interaction with geometry changes in the air stream. The insulation contained in silencers is typically designed to minimize both sources of noise.
There is a need for an improved silencer, particularly one which is compact, efficient and durable.
Fan Coil units are capable of producing condensate carryover when applied in higher humidity conditions. This design helps prevent carryover as an integral part of the unit.
It is an object of the invention to provide an improved silencer.
The exemplary system described herein (a fan coil quiet unit "FCQ") includes an apparatus and method for attenuating the sound generated by a fan coil unit or other HVAC equipment.
Embodiments of the invention can minimize the noise generated by the variable pressure regions within the FCQ unit by closely coupling the noise-attenuating, insulation-lined silencing portion of the unit to the housing of the centrifugal fan inside the unit. Such close-coupling minimizes the turbulence created by the centrifugal fan and thus minimizes the associated noise.
Embodiments of the invention also minimize noise within the FCQ by creating a constant, uniform cross-sectional profile of the air traveling through the unit. This uniform cross-sectional profile minimizes the turbulence created when air exiting a typical FC enters a silencer with a larger (or smaller) cross-sectional area. The decreased turbulence in the airflow of the invention, in turn, helps minimize the noise generated by the FCQ.
Embodiments of the invention minimize high-frequency noise due to the internal angled or curved geometry of the FCQ. Such geometry obstructs any direct line-of-sight pathway out of the unit that would otherwise allow high-frequency noise to escape without much attenuation. Traditional silencers lack any such internal geometry and instead allow high-frequency noise to exit the silencer without contacting the baffles of the silencer. Therefore, the high-frequency noise in a traditional silencer can escape without much attenuation.
This silencer is described as comprising a casing having an inlet and an outlet; a condensate deflector positioned at the inlet to the casing; at least one baffle being operable to attenuate noise in a gas flowing through the silencer; and an air pathway through the silencer, defined by positions of the condensate deflector and the at least one baffle within the casing. The air pathway is angled or curved to substantially minimize the line-of-sight pathway from the inlet to the outlet. The condensate deflector may also have a leading edge at the inlet to the casing and a trailing edge fixed to a leading edge of the baffle, the trailing edge of the baffle being fixed to the outlet of the casing.
Further objects, features, and advantages will become apparent upon consideration of the following detailed description of the invention when taken in conjunction with the drawings and the appended claims.
Prior art FCs 201 and silencers 202 also have a direct line-of-sight pathway 206 from the centrifugal fan 207 of the FC 201 to the discharge outlet 208 of the silencer 202. As a consequence of such a direct line-of-sight pathway 206, high-frequency sounds can travel relatively unobstructed through the silencer 202. This is because the shorter wavelengths of high-frequency sound waves produce less displacement of the air molecules and hence those air molecules are less likely to collide with the baffles 203 a, 203 b inside the silencer 202. This "beaming" effect of high-frequency sounds thus reduces the effectiveness of prior art silencers 202 in reducing high-frequency noise.
In addition, the cross-sectional area of the blower outlet 408 substantially equals the cross-sectional area of the air pathway 407 of the silencing portion 404 of the FCQ 401. Therefore, the FCQ 401 contains no nose, unlike the nose 209, 302 present in prior art silencers 202, 304 (
The construction details for this silencer 801 will depend on the application and environment in which the system is being installed. For example, in a standard commercial application the casing 805 may be galvanized sheet metal. In such an installation the condensate diverter 803 will typically also be of galvanized sheet metal without perforations, riveted to the silencer walls, the joints being sealed with commercial sealant. The trailing edge of the condensate diverter 803 meets the leading edge of the perforated sheet metal making the lower baffle 807. The condensate diverter 803 may be fastened to the lower baffle 807, but it is generally sufficient to have a folded joint. The trailing edge of the lower baffle 807 terminates adjacent to the outlet of the silencer 801, being fastened to the floor of the silencer 801 with rivets, sheet metal screws, tack-welds or other similar fastening systems.
Exemplary dimensions for this silencer embodiment are shown in
The angle of the nosing and the length were optimized during design and testing to ensure that the condensation carryover would be effectively reduced without creating too much pressure drop. By increasing the length of the condensate diverter 803 one could effectively catch more condensate carryover but the length of the silencer would be increased. In the application of
The diagonal orientation of the baffles 807, 815 provides a longer path for sound to travel along the baffle surfaces for a given a silencer length, resulting in greater sound reduction for a given silencer length. Increasing the gap between the baffles 807, 815 will result in lower losses, though it will result in less noise reduction. In the embodiment of
In this particular embodiment, integrating the silencer baffles 807, 815 and condensate diverter 803 allowed the combined unit to be reduced in length by 8″. Reducing the length saves material, and also allows a silencer and condensate diverter to be installed in a tighter location. If space constraints forced one to go without a condensate diverter then downstream components could deteriorate due to rust and mold, and air quality would suffer.
Integrating the non-line-of-sight concept with the flat, condensate diverter nosing, effectively reduced the noise levels as well as reducing the amount of condensate carryover. Sound power levels of fan coil units were reduced as was condensate carryover, without reducing flow performance.
Silencers for fan coil units are available on the market but they do not offer integral condensate diverting sections. There are condensate diverting sections which are occasionally used in the industry but these are only available separate from the silencer. Typically, the trailing edge of commercially available condensate diverting sections do not line up at all with the leading edge of commercial silencers, so there is a great deal of turbulence and resulting air flow losses. Even if the two components did mate effectively, this would result in a longer component than the integral design of the invention, and it would not provide an optimized solution. That is, the integral design can be tested in a lab and optimized for design parameters. In contrast, combining separate silencer and condensate diverter sections that have been optimized independently will not yield the same performance.
While this invention has been described with reference to the structures and processed disclosed, it is to be understood that variations and modifications can be affected within the spirit and scope of the invention as described herein and as described in the appended claims.

Good little essays...but some lack depth,
This review is from: The Maverick: Dispatches from an Unrepentant Capitalist (Hardcover)
I liked this book. It has a a series of short, concise and incisive essays on a whole manner of business topics. My only criticism is that all the essays are quite short and some of them lack depth and leave you wanting more of an answer that what is given. I suppose that's fair enough though - the book clearly states that they are articles from the author's newspaper column, so its not unreasonable they are short and to the point. Worth the money.

Cornish Clitrumbler
Reviewed: 22 May 2016 by Sex Squid, a Bisexual Married Male
Vibrators are just for women, right? Wrong. I wanted to save something special for my 50th Lovehoney review and what better than the Doxy Wand?!
When I first delved into the world of sex toys some 20 years ago, male toys were largely themed around having something to stuff your penis into. Thankfully, no longer!
Somewhat surprisingly, the wand massager has been around since the late 1960s. After nearly fifty years of refinement, Cornwall-based Doxy joined the market and laid claim to making the world's most powerful wand. What attracted me, though, was not the power, but the design of the head.
I already owned a magic wand, albeit a cheap freebie from a competitor site. The head was coarse to the touch and made of what felt like toughened polystyrene. No amount of lube softened the rough head and the vibrations felt buzzy. Still, the mains power piqued my interest and after gleaning the opinions of existing wand owners in the Lovehoney community, it seemed the Doxy was the way forward.
It's not cheap, though, so do you get what you pay for? The packaging it came in certainly suggested so; all very minimalist in design. I opted for the white wand, preferring it to the brighter colours and already having plenty of black toys in the collection. The matte finish adds to the luxury look to what is clearly a high-end product. The head is made of a medical grade, non-porous PVC, and it's the soft cushioned feel that really attracted me to the Doxy.
In use then... you get 7 speeds ranging from 3000 to 9000rpm. The vibrations are so deep they literally bore right through you. On the lowest setting I can stroke the Doxy up and down the shaft of my cock and feel the vibrations in my mid-thigh! There is an option for a pulsing pattern but, to be honest, the steady and unrelenting power of the wand works best for me.
The wand market is still very much female dominated, but with attachments such as the Hummer being available for men. But I wanted to challenge the idea that I need to adapt the Doxy in order for it to get me off. Can I reach orgasm just by stroking myself with the Doxy? Yes. A thousand times yes. This thing works every time. It makes me cum hard, and without the need for any manual stroking to finish the job.
Too long in one place tends to numb me out but varying the speeds solves that for me. Having a +/- to instantly drop the speed instead of having to cycle back through all the patterns is another simple, yet neat little touch overlooked by other cheap imitators. The Doxy is a proper luxury sex toy. It even has a memory (!), remembering the last speed I left it on, even when it's been unplugged at the wall in the interim!
And whilst I'm singing the praises of a vibrator as a male toy, I feel I should say that combined with the suction cup wand attachment sold by Lovehoney, you'll find that you can upcycle and rediscover any non-vibrating toy in your collection. The sheer power of the Doxy ensures that the rumbles are felt all the way to the tip of any dildo or plug!
In summary then, male or female, the Doxy is for you. I simply cannot recommend it enough!
- Pros
- Everything!
- Cons
- Nothing!
- Bottom line
- Perfect. Vibrators can be for men after all!

Totally incredible orgasms
Reviewed: 18 April 2016 by Newbiesubfemale
I bought this to use with a guy I was seeing at his request. It blew my mind!
The powerful orgasms it can generate make it perfect for forced play - I spent a happy half an hour restrained and blindfolded on a chair with this tied to me. It is almost painfully intense. A completely unforgettable experience...
Simple, powerful, and not completely ugly to look at in grey/black. It's very easy to use.
I've stopped seeing the guy, but I use it regularly on my own for powerful instant orgasms within seconds.
- Pros
- Super powerful, intense, simple to use. Orgasms at the snap of a plug socket!
- Cons
- It's a little bit noisy. But I love it so much I overlook the hum!
- Bottom line
- Every single woman should own one! And using it on yourself feels particularly sexy.

Phanteks Launches PH-TC12DX Series CPU Cooler
Phanteks launches PH-TC12DX, a U-Type dual tower heat-sink with four 6mm heat-pipes allows for optimal airflow and cooling. PH-TC12DX's 6mm heat-pipes are linearly aligned and developed to have the least amount of air and thermal resistance. Incorporating P.A.T.S and C.P.S.C Technologies, PH-TC12DX delivers better heat dissipation and heat transfers. PH-TC12DX includes dual PH-F120HP PWM Premium fans to allow for higher performance and/or silent operation.
Patented. P.A.T.S (Physical Antioxidant Thermal Shield) will greatly increase the cooling performance and reliability while deflecting other thermal radiation from other heat sources, such as the GPU, South Bridge, North Bridge, etc. P.A.T.S, ran at a long period, will display significantly better results in an enclosure, closed environment, than a tech station, open environment. In extreme conditions, PATS is able to withstand temperatures of up to 200 degrees Celsius. P.A.T.S is environmental friendly and non-toxic.
Patented. C.P.S.C (Cold Plasma Spraying Coating Technology) is a brand new technologic forming deposit that displaces heat onto corresponding metals at a quicker rate. With this technology, the Phanteks PH-TC12DX enhances thermal conductivity on the soldered surfaces of the heat-pipes through the copper deposits.
Phanteks PH-F120HP PWM Premium fans use UFB (Updraft Floating Balance) bearing, Nine blades and MAFO (Maelstrom Air-Fort Optimization) drive system to achieve massive airflow and perfect dynamic balance. The PH-F120HP fans with the support of the anti-acoustic rubber pad and rubber bar produces low level dB(A) and eliminates vibration. With PWM functions built in, PH-F120HP fans allows you to set speed adjustments for either performance and/or silent operation.
PH-TC12DX Series are compatible with Intel LGA 2011/1155/1156/1366/775 and AMD FM1/AM3+/AM3/AM2+/AM2.
Pricing and Availability
Now available at your local retailers. The recommended retail price for standard Phanteks, PH-TC12DX is $54.99 and Blue/Red/Black colors edition at $59.99.

Ryder on night out: 'Most of it's bollocks'
Relevant offers
Jesse Ryder has split from long-term manager and number one supporter Aaron Klee as the embattled cricketer's troubles with alcohol continue to unravel.
Fairfax Media understands Ryder's seven-year relationship with Klee came to an end on Friday night, hours before New Zealand Cricket revealed Ryder and Black Caps team-mate Doug Bracewell were under investigation for drinking into the early hours of Thursday - the morning of the Black Caps' first test against India.
Ryder's separation from Klee, a close friend as well as his manager, means Ryder is now without two of his main supporters as he is also understood to be no longer working with clinical psychologist Karen Nimmo since moving to Dunedin. The New Zealand Cricket Players' Association opted for a new provider of mental health support.
Both Klee and Nimmo accompanied Ryder to the Indian Premier League and helped guide him back to top-level cricket.
In a recent interview, Klee, who fronted national media for an intense period while Ryder was in a coma with a suspected fractured skull after being attacked in the early hours of the morning outside a Christchurch bar, joked: "The 56 hours he was in a coma was the easiest 56 hours I've had managing him because he didn't argue or make my job difficult".
Klee, whose relationship with Ryder goes back to Wellington's Naenae Old Boys Club, could not be reached for comment last night.
Black Caps security officer Sam Dickason is understood to be interviewing hotel and bar staff in an attempt to piece together the events of Ryder and Bracewell's night out.
Sidelined for an indefinite period with a broken foot, it's still unclear how Bracewell sustained the injury, although it appears it happened sometime during the night out.
Ryder's career as an international cricketer is now in serious jeopardy with details also emerging of another big night out after the tied one day international with India at Eden Park on January 25.
NZC confirmed reports Ryder was out until 3am and was so drunk he was escorted to a taxi outside an Auckland bar by team-mate Jimmy Neesham, who was appointed his minder for the night.
When contacted last night, Ryder slammed the latest reports on him saying "most of it's bollocks" but declined the opportunity to go into detail.
"Why would I want to make a statement?" Ryder said.
"Most of it's bollocks but no-one believes it anyway, so don't worry about it, mate. Don't call here again, thanks."
Reports have circulated about Ryder going out drinking regularly in recent months but he's managed to stay out of trouble since returning to international cricket on Boxing Day.
New Zealand coach Mike Hesson and senior Black Caps were understood to be furious when details emerged of Ryder and Bracewell's latest hi-jinks on the same day captain Brendon McCullum scored a double-century and a dominant day for the team on Friday.
Ryder was a good chance of ending his 26-month hiatus from test cricket as cover for Ross Taylor, whose wife Victoria is due to give birth to their second child during the second test, but now won't be considered for the match starting in Wellington on Friday.

For millions of graduating students, this time of year brings an end to familiar surroundings and leads to brand new beginnings in just a few short months. This transition period is not unlike a new entrepreneur starting up a business or a seasoned business owner trying new projects, a new niche, or implementing a new business model. In all of these situations, creativity is the key in sustaining success.
In a recent article written by Sarah Pierce in Entrepreneur.com, one creative college-bound student with an overdrawn bank account thought college was just a dream. Determined to find a way to make some quick cash, Alex Tew took 20 minutes to brainstorm one question: How can I become a millionaire? He projected that if he could sell one million pixels of ad space on a website for just $1 each, he could pay for college.
So he invested in his business by purchasing a domain name and basic web hosting services. Convincing his family to buy the first 1,000 pixels, he sent out press releases to local media in his hometown in England. The UK media wasn't the only outlet that picked up this young entrepreneurs story. In a short time, his story became viral being scooped up by bloggers, online forums, and chat rooms.
Within just two weeks, he had sold enough pixels to cover three years of college. In five months, he reached his goal of selling $1 million worth of pixels.
From starving student to million-dollar entrepreneur in just a few short months. This young entrepreneur exemplifies what it takes to succeed in today's marketplace.
The next time you're feeling the entrepreneurial overwhelm, add these life lessons to your portfolio:
Be Agile
When you decide to go big, the unexpected will pop up but don't let that stop you. When Paypal blocked this young entrepreneur's account because of immediate high volumes of transactions, he quickly came up with an alternative payment method within hours. Being agile in today's marketplace is more crucial than ever. Business owners of today won't be able to anticipate everything, but today's savvy business owner exercises their agility and learns to adapt to changing needs.
If you try to be everything to everyone, you'll be nothing to no one – not to mention burned out if you take on too much. Learn the value of delegating pieces of your business so you can focus on what's most important to grow your company. If you handle every single detail, it doesn't allow room for additional business.
Prepare and Plan
Prepare and plan for success. Set 3 to 5 goals each year. Make the goals tangible by writing them down and laying out the steps and resources needed to reach them. Each week review your plan and check off the action steps that were accomplished. Before you know it, you have achieved more than you thought possible.
Be Creative
Creativity creates ideas, and ideas provoke action. If you're stuck in "I can't see how this is going to work," change the conversation in your head to, "how could this work?" Take 20 minutes to brainstorm all of the possibilities and identify the ideas that will be integrated into your plans.
Try and Try Again
With every failure, there is learning. With every lesson, you realize something that you shouldn't do the next time. Far too many entrepreneurs stop there and deny the world an opportunity to utilize their strengths and what they have to offer. Even the most famous inventors weren't successful the first time. Pick yourself up, dust yourself off, and start moving ahead again – this time wiser.
With every end, there is a new beginning. With every failure, there is more wisdom. With every closed door, a new window of opportunity opens.

Nicole Scherzinger to Perform at the West End Stage
The Pussycat Dolls star Nicole Scherzinger is considering swapping pop music for a stint on the West End stage under the guidance of British theater mogul Andrew Lloyd Webber. The singer has confirmed she is in negotiations with the award-winning composer about some "stage work", sparking rumors she will be the next big name heading to London's famed theater district.
Scherzinger has also revealed she has been talking to Lloyd Webber about a possible judging role in his next reality TV project. She tells Britain's The Sun, "We've been talking about doing some work together soon, on stage and on his new TV show. I would love it. Andrew is a friend, he and his wife Madeleine are lovely. I'm in awe of him and inspired by him. Coming up in the musical theater, we have a lot in common."
Lloyd Webber has previously taken his stage show talent searches to the small screen, with TV shows dedicated to finding aspiring theater stars to play key roles in West End productions including "Oliver!", "Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat" and "The Wizard of Oz". His latest TV project has yet to be announced.

The Juneau Planning Commission has postponed reconsideration of the conditional use permit for a new boat launch and parking area at Statter Harbor.
The Planning Commission had planned to take up the second vote at its meeting Tuesday night. But CBJ Community Development Director Hal Hart asked for the delay.
He says he's been pushing the CBJ Docks and Harbors Department to resolve project issues that resulted in the Planning Commission's vote last month to reject the permit.
Chairman Mike Satre called for reconsideration, and told Docks and Harbors to use the time to respond to local homeowners' concerns about the project.
Port Director Carl Uchytil says he's done just that. He's met with Auke Bay Towers condominium association attorney and plans a meeting with the Statter family. The harbor is named after Don D. Statter, a former state public works employee and CBJ Docks and Harbors Board member, who advocated for Juneau harbor improvements.
Uchytil says he has "tweaked" the permit application, but believes the project as it is meets environmental and regulatory requirements as well as community needs.
"We're working diligently with all those concerned that the Auke Bay condo association and others to ensure the project is built that meets the demand of the boating public and we feel the he process have been followed diligently," Uchytil says. "And after 4 ½ years we think it will vastly improve the Auke Bay area and provide a benefit to all Juneauites."
Community Development Director Hart wants to see another draft plan by the end of this week that addresses neighbors' primary complaints, including the question of green space at the harbor.
"What would the folks who are living in the condominium – what do they see? And then from their perspective, are they just looking at a large parking lot, fill and a parking lot, or is that going to be broken up with some landscaping?"
Hart says the seawalk also should be attractive as a public place, not just a spot for harbor users, "so that coming in from the highway you'll be able to walk down that seawalk and have a progressive view of the shoreline. You'll see the stream off to your right as you're walking and the bay would be in front of you. Ultimately we want that to be a nice public amenity."
But Hart acknolwedges there's not much space for both parking and landscaping in the area.
Neighbors also are concerned about lighting, which Port Director Uchytil says is mostly resolved.
Hart says he's bringing up the design issues at the Planning Commission level because they're important to the community. The Statter Harbor Master Plan has been in the works for more than four years. New floats have already been completed.
The Planning Commission will take up the Statter Harbor conditional use permit on June 25th.

Mark Ballas Frolicking in Bed With Chelsea Kane in 'Hotwire' Video
"Dancing with the Stars" partners Mark Ballas and Chelsea Kane make a cute couple in his music video for "Hotwire". Spotting Chelsea while he's wandering on the streets of Los Angeles, Mark then takes a tour around the neighborhood and checks into a hotel with her.
"He was actually going through headshots of other actresses during our photo shoot and I asked him what he was doing. He told me and I told him, 'Hello, actress'," the "Camp Rock" actress who was formerly known as Chelsea Handler said to Just Jared Jr. "I'd be happy to do it and I did."
"Hotwire" is taken from Mark's studio album "HurtLoveBox" which is described as "an intimate, personal journey of the trials and tribulations of life and relationships."
