Neat! However do not purchase for child. This is to fit an adults head and shoulders. Was bought for my 8 year old and it didn't fit him at all. He couldn't see out if it and the box/mask kept moving all around making him very uncomfortable.

Jessica Biel at 'Total Recall' UK Premiere (Photos)
Actress Jessica Biel was photographed at the "Total Recall" UK movie premiere at Vue West End Cinema in London on August 16, 2012.
Biel has been making appearances everywhere promoting her new movie. She posed for photos with "Total Recall" co-star Kate Beckinsale at Comic-Con in San Diego on July 13 and was photographed at the "Total Recall" Los Angeles movie premiere on August 2 and the "Total Recall" Germany movie premiere on August 13. Biel, who is engaged to be married to singer and actor Justin Timberlake, wore a Giambattista Valli high-necked, long-sleeved dress with feathered waist and beaded skirt. The 30-year-old actress was ridiculed for her dress choice by fashion critics who said she looked like an emu – a flightless Australian bird.
Check out photos of Jessica Biel at the "Total Recall" UK movie premiere Thursday night:

So this past Wednesday I had my 34 week appointment- everything went well I saked the OB if I was measuring fine he says I look normal and that he doesn't think the baby is abnormally large or anthing... whatever that means. He scheduled me for a growth scan at my 36 week appointment- after which I will start going weekly. So far he hasn't mentioned anythign looking out of the ordinary, although my weight gain to me seems to be very slow if not plateuaing (spelling?). For a while I was gaining about a pound or so a week- this week I'm the same as I was a week ago 205. I started about 185 so I've gained about 20 pounds this pregnancy, with my first I couldnt seem to slow down the weight gain I gained somewhere need 40-60 pounds. I started out much heavier this pregnancy at 185, with my first I was 135 when I found out at 4 weeks I was pregnant. I just can't imagine how big this baby is, or his position half the time. I see some ladies on here know exactly where every part of their baby is from head to toe. All I'm sure of his he is head down, doctor proved that fact by palpatation- and gosh it urehurt to move his head around he is so far down. It even hurts to use the restroom, TMI I know. Anyways back to my point. I have no idea how big he is right now, and part of me is really really worried he is too small or something since I haven't gained much weight. But then again at the beginning of my pregnancy my doctor did say some larger framed women don't gain as much and have normal babies.
So I'm super nervous and have to wait 2 weeks for this ultrasound- and havent had one since 20 weeks. Surely if he thought something was wrong he would be up front and say something or if by now anythingmajor was wrong we would have seen it or picked up on it right?

...on O and the market is valuing the drug/royalties ($180 mil) at under $20 mil? Makes perfect sense. Either the spending cost is bull or the pps is bull. Can't be both. We know that O is no different than Epogen in regards to reactions, and even better....only needs to be taken once a month. Something is not right about the price action and volume especially from what was seen yesterday. I think I will add soon.
Sentiment: Buy
no investment institutions own this stock anymore... check the recent sec filings... the few that still had shares... sold Dec 31...
ur mistaken....the market is valueing the drugs/royalties (180 mil) ....at only 20 million cause WE DONT KNOW IF ITS GONNA COMEBACK....hell, marketing at 20 million seems fair if u consider the chance it has of coming back...
Even without coming back that compound is worth much much more than 20 million
Dude, if you really believe what you are saying then I advise you to stop investing in anything at all. Step back and totally reconsider your logical processes and the real world before you throw your money away with foolish thinking.
I'm quite aware of what's going on. Why are you here? If you shorted before Feb 13' you've made more than 90% on your money. If you shorted after the tank you've made over 65%. Congrats, but I ask again...why are you here?

Egypt Teeters on Bankruptcy, Promises Reforms and Gets US Money
U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry carried his "cash for promises" plan to Egypt on Sunday, granting the stumbling Muslim Brotherhood regime $190 million immediately following Egyptian President Mohammed Morsi's "promises" to carry out economic and political reforms.
The money is part of $450 million commitment by the Obama administration to help out the regime, whose economy is in shambles two years after the Arab Spring rebellion resulted in the ouster of Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak.
Kerry explained that Cairo needs the money now because of the country's "extreme needs" and that Mori's promises to enact reforms, which he promised to do when elected last year. Instead, he tried to usurp even more power for himself while the post-Mubarak economy disintegrated.
The new Secretary of State is outdoing his predecessors in his optimism. He said that the American government also is setting up a separate $60 million funds for direct support to Egyptian businessmen and young people.
Morsi's promises will satisfy conditions for a $4.8 billion in loans from the International Monetary Fund loans, according to Kerry. Two of those conditions are to raise taxes and reduced energy subsidies.
With parliamentary elections coming up in April, those moves would infuriate an already angry public.
The loans are considered to be a seal of approval that Egypt is on the way to recovery.
Kerry has called his 11-day junket to nine countries a "listening tour." and said in Cairo, "I emphasize again, as strongly as I can, we're not here to interfere, I'm here to listen."
However, not everyone wants to talk to Kerry. Several opposition parties refused to meet with hymn because of the Obama administration's support for the Muslim Brotherhood regime. Even before the regime took over, President Barack Obama broke precedent by sending American officials, including then-Senator Kerry, to meet with Muslim Brotherhood officials, who formerly had been blackballed.
Egyptian Foreign Minister Mohamed Amr welcomed Kerry as "friend" and said Egypt has certain expectations from the United States, such as to make sure that to "rid the Middle East area from nuclear weapons and weapons of mass destruction in genera." That is diplomatic language for forcing Israel to own up to its nuclear capacity and to surrender them – at the same Iran is playing for time in its race for a nuclear weapon, which presumably would be aimed at Israel.Tzvi Ben-Gedalyahu

Offline Authentication not working
richarro123 posted on May 11, 2012 12:08:07 PM - Report post
just so you know, i started in safe mode and still crashed, offline and online auth
Lumiere posted on May 12, 2012 4:06:48 AM - Report post
The problem I have is that trainers try to authenticate online, with or without the offline key, and with or without Internet connected.
The trainers do work and authenticate but I would prefer to use them in offline mode because they seem to crash quite often upon start. Which I believe is caused by an exception in the connection between the trainer and the authentication server. I thought using them in offline mode would remedy that problem.

Thats not true, as said if there is any network connection to the net it will use it to authenticate.
Yourself there is a problem somewhere on your PC if it is crashing in Safe Mode, could be software, hardware or the result of malware/virus.

My internet went down but because there was an active network connection (lan only) it failed to use the offline key until i disabled the network connection. Just re-enable it after the trainer uses the offline key to authenticate.

Child's Play: Dream Homes for Tykes
Image courtesy of smartplayhouse.com.
Perhaps some of the most extraordinary on our list, SmartPlayhouse structures are feats of minimalist modern design that give kids their own space or allow parents to reconnect with them in a new environment. We're over the moon for this Kyoto design, which is perfect for homework, crafts, games and endless fun. Visit smartplayhouse.com for a quote.
Thinking of purchasing a playhouse? There's something your children can teach you. Whether you're planning to splurge on an elaborate Victorian, fix up the old tool shed or have your architect fashion a mini-version of your home in the back yard, remember this: Make believe.
For adults so often seduced by the wow factor, it's something easier said than done. Minimalist-modern parents are keen to fall for pre-fab minis from companies like Modern Dwellings and Modern Cabana. Meanwhile, San Francisco's reigning playhouse queen, Barbara Butler, caters to anything-goes parents with the most elaborate designs you can dream up. But try not to let styles (storybook? eco-chic?) or budgets (we found a tremendous range, from DIY kits in the low hundreds to $50,000+ marvels) sway you. For imaginative little ones, basic is almost always best. It's parents who usually want all the bells and whistles.
Jackson, Mississippi-based architect Holly Gomez, who left her corporate job last October to focus on her playhouse passion, is quick to caution against getting carried away in the design process. "Their little imaginations can turn a cardboard box into something cool, so simple is often all they need," she explains, adding that "decorating it is one of the most fun things you can do with your children, but you have to step back and realize it's their space."
Gomez launched her well-read blog, APlaceImagined.com, three years ago to chronicle her endless inspirations from the miniature design world. Today, she sells playhouse plans under the same business name, as well as a few complete structures that can be ordered for delivery. "After having children, it just made sense," she says. "My dad built a playhouse for us when we were young, and I've always had really fond memories of that time. I wanted the same for my kids."
45 Enchanting PlayhousesSee All Photos
Most playhouse designers agree that children need two outlets for play—physical and imaginative. What's even better is having both in one. That concept has helped Butler's playhouses amass one of the most fervent followings on the market, despite their high price tags (more than $150,000, for some). Those watching budgets may opt for the less-expensive, DIY route. Gomez suggests splurging on water-tight windows and treated-wood floors, then sourcing salvaged materials or adding inexpensive panels to the sides, which can be painted for more polish. But don't be a victim of sticker shock, either. High prices usually stem from quality materials and thoughtful features that will ensure the longevity of your purchase. Butler even incorporates features for older kids, such as a fireman's pole or a knotted rope climb. "The younger kids can aspire to it!" she says. Many of her playhouses include a safety gate to block off the more challenging parts of the structure. She also recommends adding a sand box for very young children, and a club house for sleepovers and secret meetings when the kids are older. But swings and slides? They pretty much maintain their allure well into adulthood.
Children actually prefer smaller spaces, Butler adds, so don't feel pressured to go for the ultra-deluxe model. Keep things modest, and the kids will probably love it just as much. Versatility is also a must. "I always try to design something that's intrinsic and can be used for more than one thing," says Dallas-based architect Bob Borson. He began the blog Life of an Architect in 2010 as a creative outlet in a sluggish economy, and soon, it was the third-most-followed architecture blog on the planet. It's proven the perfect platform to promote his work with local advocacy group Dallas CASA, which has hosted the Parade of Playhouses charity raffle for the past 17 years. Actively involved for four years and now leading his own competition, Borson helps to select winning playhouse designs from all over the world.
His own creations are high-quality, gender-neutral shells that can be filled with toys and props to spark a child's imagination… "Swag," he calls it. That "swag" can be cleared away easily and, when the child is older, a clean sweep can transform the space into an art studio or homework station, or even a potting shed or yoga studio for you.
The items inside make all the difference. Gomez compares the playhouse interior to a treasure chest. "One of the first things my boys said was, 'Oooh, let me get my stuff!' The playhouse is a place where they keep the things they value most," she explains.
Immensely important to Borson are see-through panels and openings, not just for ventilation in hot climates like his, but for parents to keep a watchful eye on children during play. Even when doors do not accommodate a stooping adult, designers agree that this transparency is indispensable. The bonus is interactivity. Butler adds that hands-on features like hidden alcoves, secret doors and little hiding places are big hits with her customers. Gomez agrees. "My boys like doors and shutters that open and close, they crawl through windows, they climb up walls and they do things you wouldn't expect. They just have fun." And isn't that what it's all about?

Summer in Berlin is the most magical of seasons. The city centre streets are quiet as most of the locals have fled to southern climes, and you feel like you have the city to yourself. In the quirky suburbs like Kreuzberg and Friedrichshain, the locals take ownership of the parks and open spaces to the max, by sitting around, drinking beers, grilling sausages or just hanging out till late at night. The feeling of randomly wandering around such a lively city in the late afternoons or evenings is incredible, and highly recommended.
Back indoors, there are amazing exhibitions, multimedia shows and performances to be seen, for example the fantastic new multimedia exhibition about the visions of mediaeval painter Hieronymus Bosch. Check out our events calendar to see what else is on. The new sports season is about to kick off as well, with several of Berlin's teams playing very well indeed – why not catch a match while you're here?

I try to lead an interesting life. By day I'm a marine biologist specialized in ecology and by night I am also a marine biologist specialized in ecology, because I love what I do. Other passions include orchids, sea art, responsible aquarium husbandry, kayaking, chocolate, wild berries, hiking, and French.
I always have at least one project going, usually more. My 15 gallon nano reef aquarium was the coolest, but I had to sell it when I moved to Seattle. You can see pictures in the "More Photos" album. Right now I just have some neat plants.
I like pondering the future of the environment, technology, and society. If you've ever asked yourself whether "natural" is still possible, if it ever existed, and how to engage the public in science, we will have plenty to talk about.
I'm a feminist and LGBT supporter. If you aren't, we won't get along.
Independent and creative, I have little concern for being normal. That person carrying a fig tree on the bus--yeah, that's me.
Also, if you own a fireplace, I can build you the perfect fire. It's kinda dreamy :)
Books: Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance, The Tao of Physics, Cod, Salt, Four Fish, The Unnatural History of the Sea, Captain Corelli's Mandolin, Harry Potter, Lord of the Rings, and any kind of dichotomous key
Music (Artists): The Beatles, Bob Dylan, Ingrid Michaelson, Simon & Garfunkel, Regina Spektor, Queen, Lady Gaga, U2, Lemon Jelly, Led Zeppelin, BTO, Springsteen, Charles Aznavour...
I also think about abstract stuff, like what it means to be happy, what "quality" really is, and how to preserve wilderness in a world full of humans.

It's been year and a half since I've published a post here. I always talk about "how important it is to take action".
But in most cases, taking action is not enough. Consistency & persistency are two extremely important factors for success.
Since my last post, I've attempted to write a new post for so many times. I've left some of them as draft, and simply deleted the rest.
What was it from taking me writing a new blog post?
Writer's block?
Lack of interest?
or many more other excuses…
While I was thinking about these reasons and trying to find an excuse for not updating my blog, a great post by Seth Godin came to rescue and answered all the questions in my mind.
I wasn't updating my blog, because I was afraid of SHIPPING.

Snowy owls in Erie area aid research
Erie headed out onto the Great Lake of the same name, while Millcreek spent time around the airport in the township from which his moniker came.
Snowy had to be euthanized after being hit by a car in North East.
Another, nameless, owl was struck and killed by a vehicle on Interstate 79.
All four are part of a snowy owl irruption that has brought record numbers of the white birds to the U.S. from their home in the Arctic tundra. Whether living or dead, the owls are important to researchers.
"We will probably not live long enough to see another irruption like this," said Pennsylvania author and naturalist Scott Weidensaul, a co-director of Project SNOWstorm. "We just could not let this opportunity go past."
He said nobody expected the kind of owl invasion that started after Thanksgiving and will last until late March or April. An abundance of food like lemmings is believed to lead to more owl eggs and then more birds heading south. Smaller irruptions happen every few years, but one of this magnitude doesn't come along for decades, Weidensaul said.
So he and others quickly put together the project that is trying to gather as much information as possible about the owls. He said SNOWstorm takes its name from the code that banners and birders use for Snowy Owl.
The project is based at the Ned Smith Center for Nature and Art in Millersburg, about 25 miles north of Harrisburg. Partners include the Pennsylvania Game Commission.
Project SNOWstorm plans to tag more than 20 owls in seven or eight states, Weidensaul said.
"Erie is traditionally the hot spot for snowy owls in Pennsylvania, with Presque Isle (State Park)," he said. "We knew this was the best place in Pennsylvania to go for snowy owls."
A team caught two on Jan. 19 near Erie International Airport in Millcreek.
"A lot of these birds end up at airports because airports look like home," said Weidensaul, who wasn't here for the capture.
The owls were taken to Presque Isle's Tom Ridge Environmental Center.
"They were very docile," Erie birder Susan Smith said.
Smith was at the Ridge Center, along with Gene Ware, chairman of the Friends of the Tom Ridge Environmental Center.
Ware said the birds allowed themselves to be cradled in researchers' arms like a baby, as if they sensed they weren't going to be harmed.
"They are gorgeous birds," he said.
The team took blood samples and "measured everything," including talons, legs, beaks and wingspans, Ware said. He said the birds were males, 18 to 20 months old, based on size and markings.
Their names, like those of other project owls, came from the area where they were caught.
Each had a transmitter from Cellular Tracking Technologies of Somerset placed on its back. Ware said the devices didn't seem to bother the birds.
The system is similar to the GPS in a car or smart phone, Weidensaul said. An owl's location is recorded every half-hour. Then every third day, a cellular network sends a text with data including latitude, longitude and elevation.
One drawback is the birds have to be in range of a cell tower for the information to be sent.
Erie has ventured beyond tower reach, drifting on windblown ice into the Canadian waters of Lake Erie, his data shows.
But even when that happens or when the owls eventually head north, transmitters will continue to log GPS locations, Weidensaul said. If the birds get back in range, the data will be sent, he said, meaning that Project SNOWstorm could still be providing the gift of owl information years from now.
Another hiccup is the transmitters are solar powered and don't charge as well in cloudy weather, Weidensaul said. The owls don't help.
"They always face the sun so the transmitter is in their shade," he said.
Millcreek is even more challenging because he sits with his back against equipment at the airport, which also blocks out the sun, Weidensaul said.
When information from Erie and Millcreek doesn't come in, "it may well be that they're out in the middle of Lake Erie," he said.
But researchers also know they're likely to lose some subjects. Philly, the snowy owl captured and tagged at Philadelphia International Airport, was relocated 40 miles away for his safety, but returned to the airport, where he was struck by a plane.
"Snowy owls are fairly naive about humans," Weidensaul said. "They don't recognize us as a threat. They don't recognize automobiles or airplanes as a threat."
A car hit one of the owls on Route 5 in North East Township in December. He survived that encounter and was being treated at Tamarack Wildlife Rehabilitation and Education Center near Saegertown, where caregivers dubbed him Snowy. When it was discovered that he had irreparable nerve damage, he had to be euthanized.
After his death, he was used as a model for Project SNOWstorm and Cellular Tracking Technologies to develop cases for the transmitters so they wouldn't be covered by the owls' feathers, Weidensaul said.
"It was a shame that owl died, but it helped us," he said.
One snowy owl that died in Erie County was taken to the Ridge Center.
"The owl will live on in education," said Anne DeSarro, environmental education specialist supervisor there.
The center and Smith, the local birder, got calls about the owl Tuesday. She and three naturalists went to I-79 south of Route 20, where they found the dead bird, believed to be a young male.
"It was clutching a vole in its talons," DeSarro said.
She said that after filling out permits required when obtaining such a bird and notifying the state Game Commission, the owl was sent to a taxidermist and is expected back in a month or so.
"Eventually, we hope, as soon as it's done, to have it on display," she said.
DeSarro said officials also hope that taxidermist Tim Schloss can incorporate the vole, giving the owl the appearance of swooping down on its prey.
While voles and lemmings are known food for snowy owls, Weidensaul said research spawned by the irruption shows that the birds also feed heavily on waterfowl like ducks.
He said little is known about how snowy owls live when they come south. Project SNOWstorm is helping researchers discover details like when the birds move around and where they hunt.
While Presque Isle is attractive to snowy owls, they've also been seen in other parts of Erie County, including Fairview Industrial Park, observers said.
Ware remembers two last winter at Presque Isle. This winter, he knows of at least seven or eight. A popular site is Gull Point, but owls also are elsewhere around the park.
Park officials said snowy owls are drawing more than the usual number of human visitors to the peninsula at this time of year.
Most are respectful, content to watch and photograph owls without disturbing them. But Ware said he's heard of some people throwing rocks at snowy owls so they'll fly for a better picture.
He said those individuals have quickly been chastised by others in the area who are respectful of the gorgeous creatures.
Weidensaul said people are so taken with snowy owls because they're "stunningly beautiful" and, coming from so far away, are mysterious.
He said Project SNOWstorm doesn't plan to return to Erie to tag more snowy owls, unless it turns out something happened to both Erie and Millcreek.

OSHA News Release - (Archived) Table of Contents
OSHA National News Release
U.S. Department of Labor
News Release USDL: 97-50
Monday, February 10, 1997
Contact: Susan Hall Fleming,(202) 219-8151
New OSHA Rule Clarifies Injury/Illness Data Collection Requirements
About 80,000 employers asked to mail information on workplace injuries and illnesses at their worksites during 1996 to the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) will have clearer guidelines under a new rule announced today.
Most U.S. employers must keep records of occupational injuries and illnesses that their workers experience. Today's rule clarifies OSHA's authority to request employers to mail or electronically transmit that data directly to the agency along with the number of workers employed and the number of hours those employees worked. With this data, OSHA can better direct its programs to protect workers.
"In the past OSHA has relied on generic industry-based data to determine where to focus its enforcement program and outreach efforts," said Gregory R. Watchman, acting assistant secretary of labor for occupational safety and health. "However, the General Accounting Office and others have urged OSHA to obtain and use data identifying the actual injury and illness experience of each worksite to better leverage OSHA's limited resources."
Site-specific data is a key ingredient in OSHA's Cooperative Compliance Programs and special initiatives for nursing homes and facilities with many repetitive stress injuries. In February 1996, OSHA proposed to simplify and update its recordkeeping procedures, including specific provisions covering data surveys. At the same time, the agency sent 80,000 employers a survey asking them to submit 1995 injury and illness data directly to the agency. Ninety-two per cent of those surveyed responded.
OSHA compliance officers routinely check injury/illness data during inspections. However, the survey permits data collection from a much larger universe of firms than OSHA can reach through inspections alone. Today's rule clarifies OSHA's authority to collect the data via mail or electronic means.
OSHA shortly will send the survey form to collect 1996 injury and illness information from approximately 65,000 employers with 60 or more employees. Since employers should already have the data compiled, the survey takes an average of 30 minutes to complete.
The new rules covering injury and illness surveys are expected to appear in the Federal Register on Feb. 11, 1997. OSHA plans to promulgate other provisions of its updated recordkeeping requirements later this year.

This blog post is for all of the women in the Spin Sucks community.
Guys, you can read it too, but I'm not sure it'll mean much to you. I hate to lose half our audience on a Monday morning, but it's going to be worth it to the girls.
There is a new social network worth checking out…and it's for women entrepreneurs and business owners.
Project Eve , launched just a month ago by two recovering investment bankers, is dedicated to furthering women's understanding about business and overcoming hindrances to action.
Sorry, guys. Of the nearly 1,000 members only a couple are men (who I'm convinced are trolling for dates). Co-founder Kim Oksenberg says the reason for this is to allow women to communicate, collaborate,and share actionable solutions minus the "sharp elbows."
In addition to relieving some of the fear and uncertainty tied to starting a business, Project Eve provides its members access to hard to find business resources, the ability to develop relationships with people previously thought out of reach, and a receptive platform to demonstrate their expertise, market, and grow their business.
Having spent some time on the social network (I am, after all, a woman entrepreneur), I'd describe it as LinkedIn Groups on steroids. While you can create lists of other women who work in similar industries, I think the real value is in having access to other business owners where you need to outsource or partner. LinkedIn doesn't allow you to do that without joining a myriad of groups and digging through all of its members.
The site also features members in order to help grow and build your following and sends a daily email with those asking for help, which you can answer easily and quickly if you have the expertise they need.
Complete with videos, discussion forums, and Q&A sections, you can find information on VC funding, growth, accounts receivables, and even juggling everything.
Project Eve launched just three weeks ago and already has 630 members, which shows there clearly is a need for women business leaders to have an outlet for discussion, resources, and community.
I recommend joining the site. It won't be a huge suck of your time; rather you'll easily find things of value.
If you'd rather dip your toe in the water and learn more about it first, you can find them on Twitter, Facebook, LinkedIn, and (my favorite) Pinterest.

You called….?
Thank you! I just signed up and I'm looking forward to getting plugged in. 🙂
@EricaAllison LOL!! This is definitely something you will like.
Fascinating! About time…will head over and join ASAP. Thanks for heads up!
@Soulati | B2B Social Media Marketing When you get signed in, check out the conversation about blogging tribes. Would be interesting to get your insight in to that question, as well.
@ginidietrich will do; going over now…
@Soulati | B2B Social Media Marketing I saw you on there! Woo hoo!
Just signed up…thanks for introducing me to it @ginidietrich ! Being able to connect with other female entrepreneurs is so valuable, & something that's definitely missing in my professional life.
@brittanybotti You're very welcome. I think you'll like it…lots of great resources, videos, and conversations.
Great find! I'll have to check it out. How did you hear about it?
@lauraclick I actually talked to the founders a few weeks ago, as they prepare to ramp up for a public launch. I was introduced to them through a mutual friend.
Trust me, if it's about the women then I am more than happy to show up…..even if I have to shave my legs………
This sounds like a great idea; maybe they will have a luncheon or tweetup or something I can attend, huh?
Sounds like you already have some people signing up so hopefully they will all benefit from it.
The local college had a fund raiser; Wise and Witty Women and a Few Magnificent Men. I made sure to get an invite, best luncheon ever…..just sayin'……
@bdorman264 Of course you got an invite. LOL!
@ginidietrich what @bdorman264 didn't tell you is he shaves his legs anyway. He is a hosiery model in his spare time. Thigh down of course. But that is why he keeps fit.
@HowieSPM @ginidietrich Good thing this is the internet; I told you not to tell anyone Howie………..
Great to see this, Gini. I don't think the couple of guys are trolling for dates, though. Some men are just smart enough to recognize where the brain power is!
@SociallyGenius Some of us might have been born on Wednesday, but it wasn't last Wednesday, huh?
@bdorman264 That's right, high 5!
@SociallyGenius Riiiiiiight.
@ginidietrich @SociallyGenius @bdorman264 I am joining just to troll for dates, Maybe find a rich woman to make me a kept Alien.
@HowieSPM Don't women hang around your hood to troll for dates with you already? @ginidietrich @bdorman264
@ginidietrich Excusez moi? Don't roll your eye(i)'s figuratively and literally. I know my limitations, and my strong suits. I will have women partners at my company because there's some things you just do better. Happy? It's the truth!
@SociallyGenius Oh there are many things we do better.
@ginidietrich @SociallyGenius What? You don't think I have game…………oh wait, you have seen me in action…………well, maybe that wasn't my 'A' game that night………
RT @ginidietrich: Women Entrepreneurs and Business Owners Have Social Network http://t.co/YH5xmnL4
@sherrilynne xoxo
There is no way that Dear Abby is missing out on this one.
@TheJackB WOO HOO!
Can I join the group if I dress in Drag. I can be Chiefette Alien.
@HowieSPM I think you definitely should do that.
Another great suggestion from @ginidietrich . I'm often overwhelmed at how generous women entrepreneurs are to each other and it's exciting to get to experience that on a larger scale!
@HeatherTweedy What I really like about it is you have access to women from other areas that you might not get in the other social networks. For instance, you can belong to a PR business owner's group on LinkedIn, but you don't have access to women who have capital or know how to help you get women's business certified. This does that for you.
@ladyxtel @ginidietrich oooh! Must check it out! 🙂
@C_Pappas Looks interesting 🙂 Project Eve might be onto something….

@wabbitoid I don't know that it's necessarily women who make better leaders, but we definitely view things through a different lens. I'm extremely competitive, but more so with myself than with other people. I want to be the best me…and that makes me a better leader. I think a lot of women function that way…but then, so do some men.
All signed up for @projecteve1 & already so impressed. Thanks for the recommendation, @ginidietrich!
@dianalindsay Yay! Glad you like it!
@ginidietrich thank you for your support. Words cannot express our sincerest gratitude.
@projecteve1 xoxo
@SassyCEOs You're welcome!
@jennimacdonald Thank you! Looking now.
@JenMarsikFriess Let me know what you think!
@ginidietrich Will do! Thank you for sharing. I hadn't heard of it.
@JenMarsikFriess They're brand new – less than a month old. So it'll be fun to watch and see what features they add as they grow.
@debdobson xoxo
@ginidietrich Back at 'cha girl!! xoxo
@feliciahudson Are you talking about @projecteve? I joined last week.
@cassandrawest Yes. I just read about it from @spinsucks .
Thanks for sharing, Gini! I'm going to check it out now!
Great idea. The world is men's playground but it would be a better place if run by women. As a whole they're not that interested in killing each other and amassing power or money. Just look at how well people live in countries where many politicians are women like Northern Europe.
I mean usually women are more interested in creating things than in destroying them right? 🙂
@adamtoporek I'm sure we can sneak you iin
@ginidietrich cool! but how do I explain that at home? hmmn, maybe I didn't think this through…
@adamtoporek She can join too!
Loving this post. May have to ask if I can borrow it. 🙂

The past three months of New Frontier Bank's life have exposed a massive load of problems that go far beyond bad publicity.
In the first quarter of 2008, federal reports show a geyser of money pouring out of Greeley banking's largest success story.
From January to March, the bank lost $98 million, bad loans more than doubled to $550 million and the bank lost 10.7 percent of its deposits since its last report in December 2008. Federal regulators ordered the bank to stop its questionable lending practices in December, making it public in January.
"The cease-and-desist order is the FDIC's response to the problems, so the problems were already there," said Gerald Shadwick, who is retired from 27 years as a bank CEO and a second career teaching management at the University of Northern Colorado's Monfort College of Business. "The cease and desist was the response to it. Probably the publicity on that didn't help, although customers have a right to know."
The feds shut down the bank on April 10, shortly after two Boulder investors, who had considered infusing at least $30 million in capital into the ailing bank, backed out.`
Christine McClatchey, a professor of finance at UNC's Monfort College of Business said while there was likely a wave of customers rushing in to close their accounts in the wake of the cease-and-desist order, it wouldn't have scared away the investors.
"My suspicion would be that they thought the loan portfolio was bad to some degree, but there were enough good loans they could come in and turn things around. My suspicion would be that once they started taking a closer look, it was much worse than they anticipated."
In the first three months of the year, for example, more than $107 million in agriculture loans " the bank's bread and butter " were from 30 days past due to so far past due that loans stopped accruing interest.
Construction loans fared no better, with more than $317 million past due from 30 days to the non-accrual stage. Late commercial and industrial loans came in at $32.5 million.
If borrowers aren't making payments, the bank is not making the money necessary to pay interest rates it has promised, and New Frontier offered the highest interest rates on certificates of deposit in the city.
"Was it a run on bank that caused the (closure)? No. It was their loan portfolio, that's what caused FDIC to come in, that made people lose confidence," McClatchey said.
Still, losing 10.7 percent of the bank's deposits is significant, one that many in the industry said would cause some serious concern at any bank.
"If your liquidity dries up, you can't maintain your deposits, and you have to replace those funds. It would have hurt any bank. It would have made operating bank more difficult."
Losing local deposits, considered the strength of a bank, means the bank loses its liquidity, or its ability to pay the demands of its deposits, such as CD rates. When a bank loses liquidity, it has to make it up to pay their depositors the promised interest rates. Banks make it up through either buying more brokered deposits, considered "hot money," or by infusing more capital into the bank.
While the most recent report shows massive losses, the banks problems had been building for a year, when federal regulators started asking questions.
Carroll Miller, a real estate broker in Greeley and a former investor in the bank, said he had questions on the bank's asset qualities in 2004. He said he was voted off the board because of his continued concerns.
"It was obvious there were asset quality issues, and it was also obvious there were growth issues, and the philosophy there was you grew as rapidly as you could and everything else would fall into place," Miller said. "I tried to tell them that wasn't the case. ... They did not want to listen to basic banking principals I'd been taught."
Most bankers agree that slow and steady wins the race in bank growth. Rapid growth typically invites regulator scrutiny " as it was in the case of New Frontier, which offered high CD rates, attracting massive amounts of brokered deposits, but also higher risk borrowers. Those borrower's higher interest rates helped pay the higher rates promised to depositors.
That helped New Frontier continue its growth to a $2 billion bank in just 10 years. The first three months of this year, however, showed the bank had dropped below that $2 billion mark for the first time in a year.
Miller said he was surprised the feds didn't come in last year. He said typically they'll put a stop to bad banking practices within three to six months of the first warning, which in the case of New Frontier, came in February 2008.
The money has been flowing out of New Frontier, and going to other local banks, most of which have enjoyed deposit growth alongside New Frontier's declines.
Darrell McAllister, president of Bank of Choice in Greeley, reported last week to his employees that the bank has gained 1,100 new accounts at the bank representing $25 million in core deposits since New Frontier's takeover.
In the first three months of the year, his total deposits grew
6.7 percent to $911 million. Checking accounts grew
21.7 percent to $27.7 million.
Seven other area banks also experienced deposit growth, as well. FirstBank of Northern Colorado saw the biggest total deposit growth at 10.3 percent, while Bank of Colorado saw the biggest growth in checking accounts at 29 percent.

Congratulations on your new facility in Saratoga Springs !!
DEPOSIT, N.Y. — Leonard Bus Sales Inc. (LBS) recently opened a full-service facility in the W.J. Grande Industrial Park in Saratoga Springs, N.Y.
The facility for the company, which is a distributor of school and commercial buses, is 32,000 square feet and provides bus sales, service and parts. It replaces LBS' former facility in Mechanicville, N.Y., which is about 20 miles away and part of an area that is being developed for a large mixed-use project along the Hudson River. LBS had been located in Mechanicville since 1997.
Officials said the Saratoga Springs facility is significantly larger than the Mechanicville facility. The new facility occupies more than 16 acres and features 17 full-service bays (12 of which are drive through), a 7,000-square foot parts department, a 60,000-pound lift and a parking lot that can accommodate 244 buses.
The facility serves 14 counties in the Capital District and North Country and employs about 30 full- and part-time employees, including numerous certified technicians.
"Being able to stay in Saratoga County was key to our strategy for serving important markets in the Capital District and North Country," LBS President Mike Leonard said. "Customer support is the cornerstone of our business, so we look forward to providing enhanced capabilities and efficiencies to our customers here."
LBS is a third generation, family-owned distributor of IC Bus, Trans Tech Bus, Champion Bus and General Coach America products. Since 1965, the company has provided bus sales, service and parts to clients in upstate New York.
Headquartered in Deposit, LBS also has full-service facilities in Deposit, Rome and Bergen. For more information, visit www.leonardbus.com.
Congratulations on your new facility in Saratoga Springs !!
