Planned Deal Marks NYSE's Decline
The New York Stock Exchange has been bruised for years by rising competition and electronic trading. But its decline as a symbol of American financial clout was punctuated by Wednesday's announcement that parent company NYSE Euronext is nearing agreement to be bought by Deutsche Börse of Germany.
Big Board owner NYSE Euronext already has reduced employment by 40% at its exchanges scattered around the world. Most traders have left the famous trading floor at the corner of Wall and Broad Streets in lower Manhattan, replaced by lightning-fast computers in New Jersey and elsewhere that match buyers and sellers anonymously.
The company's profits already are tilted toward Europe, with just about 3% of earnings coming from U.S. stock trading and another 37% coming from other businesses in the U.S. such as stock-options trading, listings and technology.
Mass layoffs in New York aren't expected if the deal goes through, according to a person familiar with the matter. Since the 2007 merger that created NYSE Euronext, the combined company has shed more than 1,000 jobs, leaving it with 1,680 employees in the U.S. and about 1,300 outside the U.S.
NYSE Floor Over the Years
See photos of some key moments in the history of the New York Stock Exchange trading floor.
Exchange Consolidation
NYSE Euronext and Deutsche Börse are in advanced merger talks, and London Stock Exchange and Toronto market operator TMX Group agreed to merge. The recent M&A activity caps a decade of consolidation among exchanges. Take a look at the 20 biggest exchange deals during the past 10 years.
The marriage of NYSE Euronext and Deutsche Börse would give the giant company far more employees in Europe, while reducing New York to the headquarters of its listings business. The company would be incorporated in the Netherlands.
The new parent company might even lose the "New York" in its name. A person briefed on the deal Wednesday said a generic label like Global Exchange Inc. might make the company more palatable to Germans and Americans. No agreement has been reached on the company's name.
"It's unfortunate for New York City," says William Higgins, a 74-year-old retired NYSE trader who says he still owns about 70,000 shares of NYSE Euronext and splits his time between Staten Island, N.Y., and Jupiter, Fla. "The stock exchange was prominent for 200 years. So was New York City. We've all lost prominence."
NYSE Chief Executive Duncan Niederauer and other exchange officials called lawmakers about the likely deal, according to people familiar with the matter. A spokesman for Sen. Charles Schumer (D., N.Y.) declined to comment until as sale announcement is made. A spokesman for New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg declined to comment.
The deal would have been unthinkable a decade ago. But the race to make exchanges cheaper, faster and more electronic has torn down national barriers that once kept exchanges as untouchable national icons.
For years, the NYSE gobbled up smaller, regional exchanges such as the American Stock Exchange to become the largest U.S. exchange. A similar scenario now is unfolding outside the U.S., shifting more power away from New York. "This is a globalization story," said Richard Sylla, a professor at the Stern School of Business at New York University.
Traders on the NYSE floor said they felt blindsided Wednesday.
That was a far cry from when former NYSE CEO John Thain announced the exchange's deal to become a public company in 2005 at a member's meeting after regular trading ended at 4 p.m.
"No one knows what's going to happen," said Alan Valdes, a trader with DME Securities who has been on the floor for more than 30 years.
James Maguire Jr., another NYSE floor trader, compares the company's future to McDonald's Corp. and Coca-Cola Co. Both of those companies still are based in U.S. but get much of their growth from elsewhere. "When you think of American soda, you still think of Coke," he said.
As U.S. flags hung in front of the columns of the NYSE on Wednesday, some tourists spoke about the likely deal. "The stock exchange will be in good hands, but I can see it being difficult for Americans to accept," said Michiel Vanhauwere, 22, a tourist from Belgium who was about to go inside.
Mr. Niederauer, whose father was born in Germany, will be CEO of the combined company and remain in New York if the deal goes through.
He doesn't speak German, according to a person familiar with the matter.

Let's say a vendor decides to side with the public - and creates a lock screen with 2 keys - an "Unlock" and "Brick NOW" code. The brick code does more than just brick the device - it sets it to "stolen"; wipes the cloud backup copies, secure wipes the SIM and local memory... effectively rendering it useless - even to "sell" after the evidence expiration date.
Now what do they do? Does the government make such a lock screen illegal? Does Bricking your device become a new illegal activity? How far are they going to push?

Must be some new definition of the term that I was not previously aware of.
..is that they never asked technologists for suggestions to move into the Digital World.
Here's a quick example:
Given that subscriptions NEVER fully covered the cost of producing and distribution, then we have to ask what they did.
They provided a metric used to set advertising rates - the number of unique addresses (street) that subscribed. Not the number of readers. The digital world provides the same (and more) information for free - the number of unique addresses (IP) that 1) return daily; 2) return multiple times per day; 3) are new; 4) read Sunday only. These numbers could also be used the same way to set advertising rates. Of course, there would have to be more than 2 ads shown every 30 seconds.
Analysis of the on-line activity would provide instant feedback on what articles/news/items were actually of interest. You really had no clue when you threw 40 pages out there of what was actually read. The web gives you that insight - and could certainly be an indicator of where to expend resources to garner more hits, higher metrics, higher rates.
Customer inclusion would foster even more growth. Social sharing increases number of new IP hits.
But no - we're gonna block feedback, add costs, add malware, and demand the Good Old Days back.
oh well.
And if this stands, then how many other governments can just declare wealthy people in the US as guilty under their laws and seize their assets? That's one way to go after facebook, google, whatsapp, and all the others they don't like.
Need to find the originator of the 12-bar blues and just sue everybody else.
Yeah... we've fallen off the cliff - and there is no hope for a soft landing.
Technology evolves. This is the base rule.
Businesses come and go with the change in Technology. Some adopt, some die.
The typewriter enabled a lot - including the "Typing Pool" where Exeuctives used to fish. Technology replaced the typewriter with the word processor, and the typing pool has vanished from business.
Town Criers used to be the source of news - but they were repaced by the newspaper which anyone could read. But news papers were (quite literally) "Yesterdays News". The web now provides INSTANT access to newswothy events.
Before the web, the only way for information to be shared was via printed form. Businesses came into being to fulfill that need - Academic Publishing was one of those businesses. Since the 1960's with the advent of ARPANET and its successors, universities were the focus for sharing information directly, in real-time. However, storing large amounts of data was extremely expensive, and moving large amounts took a long time with the early speeds. Books were still the better option.
Today, that is no longer true. Data Storage is extremely cheap; networks (even here in the US) are quite fast; and the abiltiy to index content and make it searchable has matured. No longer do researchers need weeks to wade through volumes to find what they seek; a simple query can return links to the relevant documents in milliseconds.
The publishing industries are NOT about publishing - they are only about control, and that control is gone. Unfortunately, it appears to have been a fan of Dylan Thomas and is not going gently into that good night.
Authors no longer need to pay to have their works published; they can do so for free - and anyone can review it and comment (unless the comment section is closed - like the minds behind closing it).
When Authors start revolting over the publishers and the control they so love - they will realize that a publisher putting their work "out of print" puts them "out of income". It doesn't matter if the Copyright term will last another 80 years - a book that can't be bought produces no income.
Just like the typing pool or town criers - the journals are no longer "needed". Sorry folks - but you had a good run. Its over.
PUBLIC servants, on PUBLIC payroll, doing PUBLIC service, out in PUBLIC...
of course it needs to be locked away and kept out of the PUBLIC domain...
... I can't wait to the the "signed" contract giving one of these agencies the exclusive marketing rights...
The "Value Gap" they need to be concerned about is the one between what they value their content at and what consumers value it at.
... my Doberman LOVES new chew toys.
I have banned all mention of "that event" from my home.
Anything really important will show up on youtube anyway.

" . . . Seniors, beyond making their own residences safer, can contribute mightily to the hundreds of organizations springing up across the United States to raise awareness about the health risks of radiation exposure from wireless devices in homes, in schools, and in the workplace. Today's seniors escaped such excessive exposure when they were children, but today's children are not as lucky. Many will be made sick and many will die from such exposure while still young adults. Our children and grandchildren need to be helped, not abandoned to the current exponential rise of radiation levels caused by the rapid and thoughtless expansion of wireless technology, whatever the appeal of that technology on other grounds. You can help. . . .
Fresh Concerns About Cell Tower Radiation - OPINION
Pagosa Springs, Colorado
An excellent opinion piece written by someone who is very new to the debate about the safety of microwave radiation.
"I have been vaguely aware of and vaguely concerned about the growing controversy regarding the safety of radio frequency (RF) microwave technology that supports the current wireless industry. I happened to discover a newly released TED talk on the subject, and the supporting research offered, during the same time period that Verizon is attempting to build a cell tower in the heart of a densely populated residential neighborhood -- Lake Forest Estates. The talk, the research, and the efforts of a small but passionate group of Pagosa residents to oppose this tower in particular, and towers in residential neighborhoods more generally, have gotten me off the fence, and off the couch. . . .
"This proposed Lake Forest tower is only the beginning of Verizon's 4G service rollout in our area. Proliferating microwave wireless technology requires more and more towers to carry more and more bandwidth, for voice and data services. I suspect this wireless proliferation will continue throughout the land until there is finally public awareness and outcry sufficient to change government policy to adopt better and safer technologies. In the meantime, I think opposing the placement of cell towers in residential neighborhoods, even if they look like poor imitations of pine trees, is a worthwhile cause. . . .
"I appreciate fast and dependable internet service as much as the next guy and would love to have access to a fiber optics system. I think, however, that the government-protected rollout of wireless broadband across the country will eventually prove to be the wrong road taken toward 21st Century communications."

Cell Tower Microwave Radiation Presentation by Magda Havas
Bronte Firehall Cell Tower Community Meeting - March 15, 2012
In March 2012, Professor Magda Havas of Trent University gave a one-hour presentation to the citizens of Oakville Ontario Canada that demonstrated the amount of microwave emissions that are emitted by cell phone antennas. The audience in attendance were mostly members of the local community of Bronte that were concerned about 6 additional cell phone antennas that were placed on a tower beside their local fire station.
In this video you will be introduced to several cell antenna studies that show that the microwave radiation emitted by these towers is harmful to human health. You will hear testimony of one person that lived right below a cluster of cell antennas that had been placed on her roof. Using radio frequency meters, Dr. Havas also demonstrated how wireless household appliances such as portable phones, Wi-Fi base stations and DECT baby monitors broadcast constant microwave radiation that are similar in intensity a few hundred meters away from a large cell phone tower.
The program was produced by James Spalding for Burlington/Oakville TVCogeco and this segment is an excerpt from the original 2 hour program.
Firefighters in LA organize and are opposing cell towers.
Radio Ad states:
"This is fire captain Lew Currier. Los Angeles County is installing cell towers on 86 fire stations near you. The radiation generated by these seven story eye sores can cause debilitating health effects. Studies suggest nearby families could get sick too, yet the board of supervisors is erecting these toxic towers without public hearings or required studies. This time, be there for us, your firefighters. Call the Board of Supervisors at 213-974-1411. Tell them to stop the cell towers, NOW. This message is brought to you by Los Angeles County firefighters Local 1014.
For those who "tweet", consider supporting the firefighters efforts. This is happening NOW. You can help the firefighters by retweeting their messages. Their video, and tweets are powerful. It is rare for fire fighters to take such a strong political stand.
Please support their efforts! https://twitter.com/notoxictowers

Canadians for Safe Technology on Federal Action re Cell Towers
OTTAWA, originally posted Feb. 5, 2014 /CNW/
The original CNW heading of this release - "Canadians for Safe Technology Praise Federal Action on Cell Towers" - is misleading. C4ST supports changes to federal action on cell towers, but this federal action is still seriously lacking, as it continues to be unprotective of the public.
"Today, the Canadians for Safe Technology (C4ST) applaud federal Industry Minister, the Honourable James Moore, for his assertive action that limits cellular companies' ability to build communications towers in communities unchecked and now requires more open consultation and engagement with citizens before new cellular towers under 15m can be built. The announcement means that this outdated legislative loophole will be closed. The regulated exemption of communications towers under 15m arose during World War ll as a means of allowing ham radio operators to assist in war efforts. This loophole has allowed particularly egregious commercial sitings of towers, including in residential back yards and other sites close to occupied residences and buildings, as well as in sensitive areas that are designed to be prohibited under municipal land use policies.
"Minister Moore is to be credited for taking a huge step towards greater awareness and understanding of the potential health risks that come from more wireless radiation in our communities," said Frank Clegg, chief executive officer, C4ST,
"With today's announcement; we know that developments that include wireless radiation will require greater transparency and accountability to Canadians. I am encouraged that our federal government understands that health impacts resulting from wireless radiation should be treated seriously. I look forward to working together with Minister Ambrose to further improve wireless radiation safety standards through Health Canada's Safety Code 6."
"C4ST have long urged lawmakers to consider potential human health impacts of wireless radiation, advocating for increased transparency, education and awareness. C4ST welcomes today's news, believing it is a critical step in the right direction."
Investing in better technology to introduce alternate and less harmful forms of towers will help both clients and businesses
"In the exact words of Lord Holme and Richard Watts, the definition of CSR (corporate social responsibility) is: "Commitments by businesses to behave ethically and to contribute to sustainable economic development by working with all relevant stakeholders to improve their lives in ways that are good for business, the sustainable development agenda, and society at large."
"This knowledge was emphasised at the very recent seminar "Korean Development Experience: Lessons for Bangladesh" organised by CPD and the Embassy of the Republic of Korea on how MNCs as well as local corporations in Bangladesh may be able to flourish in their CSR activities by following the way South Korean companies conduct theirs.
"During the seminar, I realised what an ironic situation we were living in. While pondering upon the question of which companies carry out the largest CSR activities in our country, I figured out that those who do probably care the least about the social aspect of CSR.
"Cell phone service providers care the least about the society - a fact that is vivid in our daily lives as huge structures on rooftops of residential houses ie "mobile towers" are scattered all around us.
"Having such towers in residential areas is a matter of concern as the electromagnetic radiation emanating from the towers not only affects humans and animals but it also upsets the ecological balance.
"We are more or less going on with our day to day lives, ignoring the long term effects of this health hazard around us as our health is not showing any visible signs yet. By the time it does (touch wood, God forbid!), it may be too late. . . .
First two cell towers rejected under new Langley Township policy
Aldergrove Star
" . . . The first test of a new Langley Township cell tower policy that requires a poll of people near a proposed project did not go well for the phone companies, with the rejection of the first two towers presented under the new rules.
"Telus wanted to fill in coverage gaps and reduce dropped calls by building two new towers, one 45 metres tall at 4997 256 St. and the other 50 metres tall at 20470 88 Ave.
"They were the first cell towers to be considered since the Township adopted a new process in September, 2013, following several drawn-out public hearings on cell tower placement in Langley.
"It is believed the Township is the first Metro Vancouver community to order referenda on cell towers. . . .
"The new municipal "telecommunication tower policy" requires an 80 per cent "yes" vote from people living near any proposed new cell phone antenna installation. . . .
"While the Township doesn't actually have legal authority to prevent construction of cell towers, Marlatt said Industry Canada, the federal authority that does have the power, will likely defer to the Township. . . .
Why Are Cell Phone Towers Going Up on Public Schools All over the Country?
Waking Times, January 14, 2015
These cell towers are being placed on school property -- next to even preschool playgrounds and sometimes directly on the rooftops of the schools themselves -- all over America.
Why? . . .
Columbia Shuswap Regional District asked to set up cell policy
Una St. Clair addresses the Columbia Shuswap Regional District regarding the dangers of electromagnetic exposure
" . . . This is very telling and very frightening, I think this should concern all of us. And here's the meat of the issue - some insurance companies have studied the matter and have refused to cover anyone in the telecom industry because the liability issue is expected to be higher than tobacco and asbestos."
"St. Clair suggested directors designate the entire regional district a sensitive area and, among other requests, asked for CSRD to request removal and re-positioning of cell towers which have been sited within 500 metres of area where people, live, work and go to school."

Does Texas Need a Debacle?
Two experiences over the weekend have given me hope. One was watching a documentary on the catastrophic 1911 Triangle Waist Factory Fire in New York, and the other was a seminar I attended on the state budget crisis.
Debacles can be good for us.
The documentary made an argument that the sheer horror of the Triangle Fire, in which 146 human beings perished in 18 minutes, may have been the spark that eventually gave us labor reform and the New Deal.
The lecture I attended was given by F. Scott McCown, executive director of the Center for Public Policy Priorities in Austin. I wasn't taking notes, so I don't want to attribute anything too specific to McCown. But in broad terms he painted a picture of potential catastrophe if the Rick Perry Republicans get their way on the state budget.
Only one aspect of it -- Medicaid -- has the potential to create scenes of suffering and despair this country hasn't seen since the Great Depression. McCown pointed out that the cuts in Medicaid under discussion in Austin will shut down a substantial portion of the nursing home industry, meaning nursing homes will put people out on the street and close their doors.

Many of those people are helpless -- chair-bound, deep in dementia, incontinent and unable to feed themselves. As McCown pointed out, many have outlived their families and have no homes to return to.
And Medicaid is only a part of the picture. Many other forms of support and sustenance for the least among us are on the chopping block.
McCown hopes Texans will rally somehow before it's too late and stop this cataclysm from engulfing us. I do too. Of course.
But I can also see that there are moments in history when only a cataclysm can turn the tide. This may be one. Maybe when public education is ruined and we see wheelchairs behind the Dumpsters, maybe then the tide will turn. And turn hard.
Short of that, I don't know what it would take to get the message across. Maybe social conscience will only rise again when it gets some help from horror and wrath.

DALHART - Four people were killed Wednesday morning in a three-vehicle collision northwest of here.
A trooper at the scene said the wreck occurred at about 7:30 a.m., about six miles northwest of Dalhart on U.S. Highway 87.
Dead are: Sergio Medina, 21; Olga Nava, 25; Israel Fuentes, 22; and Jacqueline Medina, 22 months, all of Houston, Department of Public Safety Trooper L.B. Snider said.
Medina was driving a 1988 Mercury Cougar in which the others were passengers.
Snider said the Cougar was traveling south on the two-lane highway and crossed the center stripe, striking a northbound 1985 Chevrolet pickup. The pickup then rolled, and the car struck a northbound 1998 Peterbilt tractor-trailer being driven by Billie Myers, 36, of Clovis, N.M.
Everyone in the car was killed.
The two Dalhart men in the pickup, Harold Gates and Darren Williams, were treated and released from a Dalhart hospital, troopers at the scene said.
Myers did not report any injuries, Snider said.
Snider said the northbound and southbound lanes of Highway 87 near the wreck were shut down shortly after the accident and reopened at about 11 a.m.

Jack CasadyView in iTunes

One of the finest bassists to emerge from San Francisco's psychedelic movement of the mid- to late '60s, longtime Jefferson Airplane/Hot Tuna member Jack Casady was also one of the first rock musicians to play the bass as if it were a lead instrument. Born John William "Jack" Casady on April 13, 1944, in Washington, D.C., Casady originally picked up the guitar at the age of 12, but didn't get serious until a couple of years later. By his mid-teens, Casady was playing in a local band called the Rendezvous, which is how he met his subsequent musical partner, guitarist Jorma Kaukonen. Soon after, Casady and Kaukonen formed their own group, the Triumphs, before Kaukonen moved away -- eventually relocating to the west coast. The two kept in contact despite the move, during which time Casady had switched to the bass (and even backed such renowned artists as Ray Charles and Little Anthony when they played local shows). By late 1965, Kaukonen had joined an up-and-coming San Francisco band by the name of Jefferson Airplane, who was searching for a bassist. Casady got an invite to come out and try out for the group, even though Kaukonen supposedly didn't know that Casady had switched to bass during the interim. Casady landed the gig, although it took some time for him to blend in with the others, both musically and visually (Casady supposedly looked like a strait-laced college student when he first arrived). Jefferson Airplane issued their debut album, Takes Off, in 1966, but it wasn't until a year later (when singer Grace Slick joined the group, at the behest of Casady), with 1967's Surrealistic Pillow, that the group really took off. Further releases cemented the Airplane's standing as one of the late-'60s leading psychedelic bands (1967's After Bathing at Baxter's, 1968's Crown of Creation, 1969's Bless Its Pointed Little Head and Volunteers), but drug use and power struggles from within began to eat away at the band. Sensing that the group was moving away from their original musical direction, Casady and Kaukonen launched another band, Hot Tuna, shortly after the dawn of the '70s. Originally an acoustic-based outfit (and thought of as merely a side band to their full-time group), it soon became apparent that the duo's days with the Airplane were numbered. Such early Hot Tuna releases as 1970's self-titled debut, 1971's First Pull Up, and 1972's Burgers proved to be superior to the Airplane's final albums with Casady and Kaukonen (1971's Bark and 1972's Long John Silver), which led to the duo concentrating on Hot Tuna full-time. Hot Tuna continued on for several more albums (1973's The Phosphorescent Rat, 1975's Yellow Fever and America's Choice, plus 1976's Hoppkorv), before they disbanded as well. With punk/new wave sweeping the world by the mid-'70s, Casady surprised his dedicated, hippie-based following by forming a modern rock quartet, SVT, who issued a pair of releases during the early '80s -- 1980's Extended Play [EP] and 1981's No Regrets -- before the death of the their frontman (Brian Marnell) ended the band. The '80s saw Casady join up once more with various former Jefferson Airplane bandmates, including Paul Kantner's The Planet Earth Rock & Roll Orchestra (1983), and the short-lived KBC Band (comprised of Kantner, Casady, and Marty Balin), who issued a lone self-titled album (1986). The decade also included various Hot Tuna reunions, plus an ill-advised self-titled reunion album of Jefferson Airplane in 1989. Casady continued to jump between Hot Tuna and Jefferson Airplane (the latter going by the name Jefferson Starship: The Next Generation) throughout the '90s, and in 2000, formed the acoustic-based Jefferson Airplane's Volunteers along with Kantner. Casady has also guested on numerous recordings by other artists over the years, including such classics as Jimi Hendrix's Electric Ladyland and Crosby, Stills & Nash's self-titled debut, plus lesser-known albums by Country Joe & the Fish, Papa John Creach, David Crosby, Roky Erickson, Warren Zevon, Rusted Root, and various solo releases by Airplane bandmembers. ~ Greg Prato

Ninety Percent of Petraeus's Captured "Taliban" Were Civilians

Soccer Bombing Should Not Prompt More U.S. Meddling
Ivan Eland: The synchronized and unconscionable bombings by the Somali group al-Shabab—of people doing nothing more than watching soccer games in Kampala, Uganda—counterintuitively illustrates why the United States should not be fighting Islamic militancy worldwide. Many of America's editorial writers are screaming for stepped-up U.S. counterterrorism strikes in Somalia against the group. This option would be the worst possible course of action.

If the Vols are to avenge a 15-point Jan. 23 loss at Georgia in Wednesday's rematch at Thompson-Boling Arena, however, they may need a "sizable" contribution from Big Brian. The Dawgs dominated the earlier meeting on the inside, slamming home nine dunks and thrashing Tennessee 35-24 on the backboards. The Vols had no answer for 6-foot-10, 247-pound Trey Thompkins, who recorded 21 points, 8 rebounds and 3 blocks while limiting UT's Wayne Chism to 6 points and 6 rebounds.
With the 6-foot-9 Chism battling ankle and hip injuries, Williams may have to play a critical role Wednesday night.
"We'll give Brian Williams a really good look in practice today, whether Wayne can practice or not," head coach Pearl said. "Brian's not gotten a lot of time (since returning from the suspension). It takes a little time to get him back; he'd been off for more than a month.
"I think we'll look hard at Brian today in practice, give him more repetitions and see how close he is to being able to help us.
"He certainly could help us against the imposing size that Georgia presents, so it'll be a good opportunity for Brian."
Georgia native Cameron Tatum, slowed by an ankle injury, is questionable to play Wednesday vs. the Bulldogs. The 6-foot-6 sophomore wing sprained his left ankle with 1:01 left in the first half of Game 22 vs. South Carolina and did not play last week in Game 23 at Vanderbilt or Game 24 at Kentucky.
Asked about Tatum's status for Wednesday night, Pearl replied: "As of yesterday, it was doubtful."

Man naps in field, run over by harvester
- From: AP
- November 09, 2012
A MAN napping in a Montana cornfield was startled out of his snooze when he was run over by a large harvesting machine.
Sheriff's Lt. Kent O'Donnell says the 57-year-old man had been travelling the country by bus and decided to take a rest three rows deep in a field on the outskirts of Billings, the state's largest city.
A farmer harvesting Wednesday felt his combine hit something. When he turned the machine off, he heard screaming.
Emergency responders found the man's clothing had been sucked into the cutter, ensnaring him in the blades.
O'Donnell says the man, whose name was not released, suffered cuts requiring stitches and may need skin grafts, but given the circumstances is "incredibly lucky."

On Friday, my Facebook stream was all a flutter about the craziness of Black Friday. I responded to multiple friends that Black Friday is the reason Al Gore invented the Internet (which got a few chuckles and even quote of the day on some status updates). And then I remembered today is Cyber Monday, which supports my online shopping ideal.
So in honor, following are my recommendations for business holiday gifts:
1. Westone: My friend Lynn Kehler is the CEO of Westone, a company that makes custom ear plugs and headphones for the hearing impaired and musicians. He's always talking about how great they are, but I didn't realize what a big deal they are until I got a pair of my own. The difference between the sound quality of Westones as compared to the Bose I owned is night and day. I had no idea how much I was missing . I love them so much I'd like to marry them. They are, hands down, worth every penny.
2. Groundswell: If you've not read Groundswell, get it for yourself. And then buy copies for everyone you know. It'll change the way you think about social media and how you incorporate digital communication into your business and personal lives. If you've already read it, you know what I mean. Buy it for as many people as you can!
3. Kindle: An expensive gift, but one of the best electronics I own. You can read newspapers, magazines, blogs, and books on the Kindle and it's smaller (and lighter) than a paperback. If you have clients or senior-level staff who travel a lot, this is the perfect gift. It also works for parents and in-laws.
4. Joyful Bath Co.: I always say the bath salts from Joyful Bath Co. are magical elixir because, after a hard bike ride, I soak my legs with these and they magically feel better. A great gift for women colleagues and/or clients, though I have yet to convince my male counterparts that it's good for them too.
5. Good to Great: An oldie, but a goodie. A great book for any business leader wanting to take things to the next level. It's worth reading multiple times and makes an excellent (and thoughtful) gift.
6. Chocolate Gourmet: I received a goodie basket from Clockwork CEO, Nancy Lyons, a few years ago full of Chocolate Gourmet cookies and truffles. Holy cow are they good! They make an excellent gift for any office because you can send an assorted arrangement of treats that are sure to suit everyone.
What recommendations do you have to add to this list?

The really trick would be if you could plug ur Westone's into ur Kindle while reading either Groundswell or Good To Great enjoying a soak with Joyful Bath Co Products while munching on some heavenly treats from Chocolate Gourmet.
Thanks for this great list.. The Kindle really is one of the coolest gadgets on the market today and Groundswell and Good To Great are excellent reads.
And knowing what I know about you I truly believe that Westone, Joyful Bath Co and Chocolate Gourmet r top notch as well.
I hope you are doing well.
I'd like to add the Poken to this list (http://www.startpoken.com). Very cool gizmo for the SM crowd. It's in its infancy right now, but these will take off. Do you Poken? (I have the 'Ninja' if you want to Poken with me). 🙂
Sounds like a great list of gifts, if you only could get one, which one would you pick? While I am here I have to throw out a shameless plug for Kuru Footwear (www.kurufootwear.com), anyone that is traveling a lot and needs a comfortable pair of slip on shoes for travel, come check us out.
Gini, thanks for the great list…this is a public service! I'll echo your sentiments on the Kindle and raise you. This device has surpassed my love affair w. my many Apple products, because it gives me my favorite gift of all…access to great reading of all kinds, everywhere. And no heavy book bags to carry! I carry a veritable library on my kindle and I love the subscriptions to some of my favorite business periodicals! A great present for the voracious reader in your life.
Now, about those interesting sounding headphones. You've stimulated my curiosity!
Gini, these are great ideas!
I will add that Groundswell in the CD version is a good idea. Anyone who drives a lot will appreciate "reading" this book during those boring drives.
I bought the book and CD, and finished the CD first. I still need the book so I can mark it up for future reference when quoting for Social Media presentations, but was happy to be able to listen also.

Great ideas and great post, I think gift baskets are a great idea when sending gifts through the mail. I also think that food gift baskets as unsafe as it sounds can be a great idea.

I've used Valrhona Ivoire white chocolate as a base for various ganache recipes for some time after failing to create a good ganache with other white chocolate including Callebaut, a brand I otherwise like. Valrhona is expensive compared to other brands available here in England but Vente Privée offers it at a good discount several times each year. There is a Valrhona sale this week:
That link is to the English site but I know the company operates in other countries. You need to become a member to buy from the site, not sure why but it is free and you aren't obliged to buy anything.
I've already placed an order, popular products sell out fast. Since ordering I have read various posts in the Pastry and Baking thread that have left me wondering if I should be using Opalys as my white chocolate rather than Ivoire.
Do any of you have experience of both variants of Valrhona's white chocolate? I would be grateful for any advice you can provide on using them in baking or chocolate making.

I have been looking for self-sealing plastic bags like Soma uses for chocolate bars. Interested in a rectangle vs. the squares Soma is using. Have not found anything at Gleurp or Nashville Wraps (but I may be using the wrong search terms). Anyone know where to find these bags (in a variety of sizes) that have a flap with a bit of adhesive on the end for sealing the package?
Any other chocolate bar packaging ideas that don't require going custom?

Mason just turned 2 this week, so I decided to sit him on his potty to see what happened. In the past two days he's peed on it 5 times and pooped on it once! I was NOT at all expecting that. I was thinking it would be close to another year before he was potty trained. Where is everyone else at with potty training? This is my first, so I wasn't sure what to expect, but everyone was telling me it would likely be closer to 3 before a boy was ready to potty train. I'm kind of excited, lol!
Who's potty trained?

Nice! My LO has been fully daytime potty trained for about 3 months or so, and she is starting to wake up at night to go potty. All kids are different though...some take a lot longer to even have the interest. My LO loves being independent and I think this really sped up the potty training process (I really didn't do any "training"...just let her run around "nudey butt" (as we call it) a lot and it just really kind of happened on its own).
Juliet day trained at the beginning of October. However, she's definitely my earliest to potty train! My first two didn't train until a couple of months before thier 3rd birthday. My 3rd potty trained 4 months after her 2nd birthday.

We haven't really started, but for the last two weeks he keeps wanting to sit on the potty, then wash his hands (no actual going) and then four times in the last two days he has told me he needed to go potty and then actually peed in it, so I think the time is very near!

Not really for your situation right now. We started putting him on the potty when he was 8 month old. By the time he was 12 month he would sign for potty and was mainly poop trained.
It just took till the summer because we moved continents and the daycare was not helping along. So by the summer his diapers were often dry for days and I just ditched them one hot summer week at my parents cabin. He is having the occasional accident but that is rare.

I introduced the potty at 18 months. My DS still doesn't know when he has to go beforehand, so I pretty much have to get him naked, and put him on the potty ,and then he'll pee. He's never pooped on it yet. He's 25 months old now. We just had our 2 yr check up the other day and our Pedi said BOYS are usually not interested in PTing until more like 2.5 to 3 yrs old. So I have some time. I'm not worried about it yet.

Services are set for Monday, June 16, for Paul J. Fink, 81, a gifted psychiatrist, educator, national leader in his field, and physician who emphasized the need to help troubled young people, especially witnesses to violent crime.
Dr. Fink, of Merion and later Center City, died Wednesday, June 4, of complications from a stroke at Hahnemann University Hospital.
He had been chairman of psychiatry at Thomas Jefferson University from 1976 to 1984, and later at Albert Einstein Medical Center and the Belmont Center for Comprehensive Treatment

As you know, we need new Group Owners for the Bargain Hunters Board. While normally, BabyCenter would not facilitate a non-birth club GO process, and with the understanding that non-BabyCenter-owned groups' GO's are empowered to add and remove GO's once they're in place, we will assist in this instance.
So, we want to get input and feedback from the other group members about who would be a great role model and leader. You will be voting for FIVE Group Owners.
The Group Owners guide, located here: http://www.babycenter.com/community-help-group-owners will help you understand the privileges and responsibilities of being a Group Owner.
Among them: a great GO leads a group positively, doesn't put down or degrade other community members either on the group or by PAN (passing a note), gently reminds members of the guidelines when things seem to be heating up, and lets the BabyCenter community staff know if we need to take a look at something. She is welcoming and mindful that this is a public group, and that all members and contributors are worthy of respect and kindness. However, GOs are not expected to hold neutral views nor refrain from commenting on controversial subjects; she is just as welcome to share her POV on any given subject as any other member of the group, and is held to the same guidelines as any member of the group.
BabyCenter will have final say on whether a member will be a good candidate for Group Owner. When BabyCenter looks at a volunteer, a decision is based on the criteria we shared above. Every person who posts on BabyCenter is a valued member and we appreciate the willingness of our posters to be a Group Owner. Certain history with BabyCenter (receiving an email to your registered email address, such as a reminder/warning, or having violations in a private group) may make you ineligible. In this case, we will be looking at memberships that are older than six months old, have a track record of positive participation here, and have no warnings on record. If you have any questions, please email email@example.com.
GOs can stop being a Group Owner at any time, and while any one Group Owner can make someone else a Group Owner at any time, as well, with this group, it's a very, very good idea to have that be a public group decision, although it is NOT required.
If you are interested in being considered for Group Owner, please add your name to the following discussion (CLICK HERE) by Thursday, June 21 at 10am EST. When we submit the names for review, we'll close the thread.

Teenager denies pulling fire alarmJuly 31,2013A Bomoseen teen denied charges that he pulled a fire alarm and created a disturbance at Fair Haven Union High School.
Kyle Stone, 17, pleaded innocent Monday in Rutland criminal court to misdemeanor charges of triggering a false alarm for emergency services and disorderly conduct. The false-alarm charge carries a maximum sentence of one year in prison.
According to an affidavit, police and fire personnel responded to a fire alarm June 5 at the high school. Firefighters determined there was no fire, and a review of video surveillance footage showed Stone pulling the alarm, affidavits state.

If Mike D's defenses were average back in his Phoenix days. If he plays more defensively minded players, like he did last night, we can be better on defense than those teams. It's about the playerz~
Notice how the MDA supporterz have stayed consistent and the haters are switching it up now to try and support their argument. It won't work. All of a sudden NOW the players are the reason were playing better D. Do ya think?? You can't make this sh*t up.

As my title states, it's a good product and calibrated my speedo since I put 35's on. The only reason I give it 4/5 starts instead of 5/5 is because I had to put 33's in the programmer to calibrate my speedo correctly. When I put 35's and went for a drive, my speedo read 70mph when I was barely doing 60mph, what the heck? So I had to calibrate my truck about 4 times to get it dead on which was a bit annoying, but it eventually worked. Worth the $200 for me, I can't stand my speedo being off!

The Hypertech Max Energy 2.0 Programmer is very easy to operate and it took little time to learn it. Before I hooked it up to my truck I updated the unit from the internet. Even though it's brand new there were a couple of updates. So I suggest updating it as soon as you receive it. I'm very glad I bought the programmer.

Daily Best for Dogs by Pet Naturals is a complete multivitamin/mineral formula with digestive enzymes and antioxidants for dogs of all ages and breeds.
Daily Best is recommended for dogs of all breeds, sizes, ages, and activity levels. In addition, it is also beneficial for breeding dogs, pregnant and lactating bitches, and stud dogs. Daily Best for Dogs is a balanced, comprehensive, high potency formula that helps to maintain optimum health in dogs and puppies. It is specifically formulated with a balance of vitamins, minerals, amino acids, fatty acids, digestive enzymes, antioxidants, and other factors that work synergistically to maintain the physical well-being of your dog.
It is important to give your dog a multi-vitamin because it incorporates important nutrients essential for the health of growing and adult dogs, but which are not always found in dog food or ordinary supplements.
Many other pet vitamin companies fail to include Betaine, Methionine, Selenium, and Cobalt, which all play important roles in your dog's health.
Daily Best for Dogs is made in the USA to ensure purity, quality and safety.
