"Without development, it can be awkward to speak to individuals directly about their performance."
In the late nineties, a study commissioned by the Chartered Institute of Personnel and Development showed that good people management and development practices contributed more to productivity and profitability than strategy, quality, technology and even R & D*. Other studies in the UK and the USA show similar results. So why are organizations still finding the management of performance a substantial challenge?
Not surprisingly, the answer is a complex mixture of design and behavioural issues. The behaviours and attitudes of an organization's founders and influential subsequent leaders will have had an enormous impact on the approach to managing performance. Those who have had a deeper belief in the value of management action will have encouraged and possibly insisted upon the development of proactive performance management. They will have set the best example by providing clear direction and engaging their senior managers in agreeing objectives and reviewing progress and results in the light of such objectives. Those organizations that still demonstrate some passivity towards developing effective managers are more likely to show a lukewarm approach to managing performance.
The manager's key priorities should include leading the generation of results from the efforts of their people. This means managers need to clarify what they expect of each individual from the outset. To support the implementation of the annual business plan, many organizations design a performance management process which establishes a common approach for all managers to adopt. When used properly, this will promote an active approach to managing performance and provide consistency in rewarding people who achieve results and improving those who fall short of expectations.
The management of the performance management process must be led by business line managers. The main purpose of performance management is to deliver high performance. This can, however, become obscured by the other functions of HR, such as obtaining derivative data for talent management, salary/bonus review and learning and development. In some cases, the end-of-cycle performance review or appraisal has been given prominence over the start-of-cycle objective setting. It is much more difficult to actively manage performance over the business year, and to assess dispassionately the results achieved at the end of it, if there was no clear agreement about what was expected.
The leadership and design issues in relation to the performance management process are important aspects when analysing an organization's success. However, they do not fully explain whether or not a manager will deliver high performance: that has more to do with their confidence and skill in engaging their people in performance discussions. There are still social and cultural barriers that can only be overcome with learning and development. Ironically, organizations that employ highly qualified people can often demonstrate poor performance management, since there is sometimes a view that professionals do not need direction and engagement. Underlying this can be awkwardness, even embarrassment, about speaking to individuals directly about their performance.
The main answers to addressing managers' lack of confidence and skill in managing performance lie in two main areas; the leadership guidance they receive from their managers and the management development they undertake. In order to maximise performance they must have leadership and care demonstrated by more senior managers. If senior managers demonstrate the importance they place on high performance by setting a positive example:
• setting objectives and standards at the beginning of the business cycle,
• actively managing and supporting the achievement of high performance on an ongoing basis,
• undertaking performance reviews, and
• coaching their people to improve performance and develop potential,
then their managers will see positive role models.
However, even with positive role models, managers need
to be confident and skillful in communicating performance information.
At Nelson Consulting we recommend development that includes placing the management of performance at the core of the manager's role. High performance should be the focus of managers' leadership and coaching activities, both of which deserve development.
Specific topics to be included with leadership and coaching development are: influencing capability, interpersonal skills, communication and giving and receiving feedback. The development is maximised if undertaken in a practical workshop situation with colleagues at a similar managerial level. In this way, appropriate discussion can take place, as well as extensive relevant practice, preferably with real business cases.

Why so many people are leaving China
Iron ore prices are retreating again and the overall Chinese economy is growing less quickly, but one sector is skyrocketing.
Michael Pascoe is a BusinessDay contributing editor. He comments on companies, markets and the economy.
Iron ore prices are retreating again and the overall Chinese economy is growing less quickly, but one sector is skyrocketing.
We might seem to forget it sometimes, but Australia has more economic challenges than just Sydney and Melbourne housing prices.
With a dash of true conservatism, Scott Morrison wants the vast majority of our housing market to keep doing just what it's been doing.
Hats off to Brian Hartzer for the use of understatement by declaring APRA's alleged crack down on real estate investors wouldn't have 'any particular profitability impact'.
It says plenty about the state of Australian politics that so much policy is viewed through the lens of Sydney and Melbourne housing affordability, writes Michael Pascoe.
Sydney has been our clear fly-in-fly-out capital ever since the resources investment boom peaked, but it's ramping up to a new level.
The bad news about the regulators' new attempts to hose down housing investment enthusiasm is that they are, at best, second rate.
It's a dangerous thing to talk a big game before taking the field. Treasurer Scott Morrison did that pre-departure for the weekend G20 finance ministers meeting in Germany. He's been left trying to claim a big loss was actually a win. Monty Python's dismembered Black Knight comes to mind.
If the Reserve Bank and National Australia Bank were competitors, the consumer watchdog could have a case against them for price signalling.
The reality is that higher profits aren't translating into higher wages.

Isaiah Zuber is one of the more explosive and versatile playmakers in the Peach State for the class of 2015. The Stone Mountain (Ga.) Stephenson product has the ability to take a kick return or punt return to the house for a touchdown, as well as a bubble screen in the slot from his wide receiver position.
Zuber, who has fielded scholarship offers from South Florida, Boston College, Georgia Tech, Vanderbilt, Illinois and Purdue on the recruiting trail, has plans to leave the state to visit a school out of the ACC two weeks from now.
"I plan on visiting Wake Forest on June 7."
Locating and recruiting the rich-talent in the State of Georgia has been a priority in year two for Willie Taggart's staff at the University of South Florida.
The 5-foot-11, 185-pound Zuber hauled in a Bulls' offer over a month ago and the two parties continue to speak frequently.
"The coach came up to our school to visit me a couple of times," Zuber said. "I plan on going down there to the school sometime during the summer to check out the campus and get involved in a camp. He seems like a pretty good coach. I think it's the defensive line coach (Eric Mathies)."
Thus far, a near handful of schools have the early edge at securing a verbal commitment from the offensive weapon.
"Virginia Tech, Wake Forest, USF and Cincinnati (are my top four)."Follow @Corey_Bender

WTO rules against U.S. in meat labeling case
By Tom Miles and Rod Nickel
GENEVA/WINNIPEG, Manitoba (Reuters) - The World Trade Organization on Friday ruled a U.S. meat labeling program unfairly discriminated against Mexico and Canada, putting pressure on the United States to bring the scheme in line with global trade rules.
The WTO Appellate Body said the U.S. country-of-origin labeling rules, commonly known as COOL, were wrong because they gave less favorable treatment to beef and pork imported from Mexico and Canada, the countries that brought the case, than to U.S. meat.
The decision is not subject to appeal, but gives the United States time to comply and does not immediately alter the labeling rules.
U.S. officials hailed other parts of the decision, which they said affirmed the right to adopt country-of-origin labels, even though the United States will have to change how it operates the program.
Meat labels became mandatory in March 2009 after years of debate. U.S. consumer and some farm groups supported the requirement, saying consumers should have information to distinguish between U.S. and foreign products.
Big meat processors opposed the provision, which they said would unnecessarily boost costs and disrupt trade.
A WTO panel ruled in November that the labeling provision violated WTO rules on technical barriers to trade.
"Country of origin labeling is a lose-lose proposition for all players on both sides of the (border)," said Canadian Agriculture Minister Gerry Ritz, adding that within one year of the law, Canadian feeder cattle exports to the United States plunged by nearly half. Continued...

Thanks to the extremely popular plan, T-Mobile customers with limited high-speed data are watching twice the amount of video, more often and for longer periods of time. According to the nation's third largest carrier, 57 million GB (57 petabytes) of video has been streamed without 1KB of customers' data touched. This would be enough data to watch Adele's Carpool Karaoke with James Corden more than 460 million times. (We're not sure about reports that the T-Mobile employee in charge of checking that tidbit out has been institutionalized. Uh, that's a joke by the way).
One video streamer says that it has recorded a 90% increase in the number of active viewers from accounts with limited high speed data. Watch-times have tripled.
The mobile optimization of Binge On limits the resolution of streamed video to 480p, which is DVD quality. But T-Mobile subscribers can disable the feature if they so desire. One big change coming with the amped up Binge On gives video providers the ability to manage the video stream themselves without using T-Mobile's mobile optimization. This means that the provider will optimize the video stream to 480p once the T-Mobile customer starts streaming from the service. YouTube will be the first to have this capability.
You can check out the complete list of providers, and even request one that you would like to see added to Binge On, by clicking on the sourcelink.

How to deploy sites via GitHubNovember 2, 2011
After one my last posts about GitHub and how it's saved my ass a number of times, I had a few requests to detail just how I deploy sites with GitHub. So, here we go!
First, some background
I host this site, and a number of others, with Media Temple. My code, however, is verson-controlled with GitHub, where I have a paid account, the $12/month plan. That's namely for the remote-hosted private repos they provide, but I also use GitHub to contribute to a few repos, watch numerous others, and of course maintain Bootstrap.
Using GitHub for site deployment is pretty straight forward. However, to get started, you need to have a hosting provider that allows SSH access and has git installed. If you don't have SSH enabled, search your hosting provider's docs. If you need to install git, a quick Google search reveals some solid enough posts about it.
Now, the how-to
After covering the background details, the rest of this how-to assumes you have a paid GitHub account (for the private repo), SSH access enabled, and git installed on your server. Here's a quick summary of what we'll be doing:
- Setting up a private GitHub repo
- Cloning your repo locally
- Add some code
- Cloning your repo via SSH
- Handling maintenance
- Few other tips
Now, let's get to it!
1. Setup your private GitHub repo
The first step is to create a private repo on GitHub.com. It's the same as creating any other repo, you just have to check the right option in the setup and you're golden.
When you create your new repo, just check the option that says "Only the people I specify" for repo access. Now you have a brand new, completely empty, and private repo ready for code.
Note: I prefer a private repo for my personal site as I don't see any point in anyone viewing those files or contributing to them. Feel free to use a public one, but be warned anyone can browse your stuff.
2. Clone the repo locally
Before we can do anything with our repo, we need to clone it locally and add all our code to it. To do so, just snag the URL of the repo. You'll find it on your new repo's page on GitHub.com; it looks like this:
Copy that (manually or via the little clipboard icon) and open up your favorite command line tool (I prefer Terminal). Browse to where you'd like to keep your code locally (on a Mac, I prefer Sites) and we're ready to clone that repo.
$ cd Sites/
$ git clone [REPO_URL]
If successful, you'll see something like the following:
$ Initialized empty Git repository in ~/Sites/[REPO_NAME]/.git/
$ Warning: You appear to have cloned an empty repository.
That means you've successfully cloned your new repo and that it's empty–all good things. You know have an empty directory called [REPO_NAME] in your sites directory. Now, let's add code.
3. Add your code
The key thing about this step isn't what you add neccesarily, but how you add it. After you paste or move your files into the newly created directory, you have to add, commit, and push your code to GitHub's remote server. Let's walk through that step-by-step.
First, add the files so git can track them:
$ git add .
Then, commit them so you can push:
$ git commit -am "[COMMIT_MESSAGE"
And lastly, push all pending changes:
$ git push origin master
Boom, all your files are now pushed to GitHub's servers and you're now ready to get your code on your own server.
4. Deploy to your site via SSH
Now that GitHub is tracking your new code, we can connect to your server via command line and pull another copy of it down. To do so, we have to SSH and clone the repo (as we did in Step 2) one more time. I won't cover how to use SSH here as that's a bit out of scope, so I'll use a generic SSH command here:
$ ssh email@example.com
Once connected, navigate to your domain and clone the repo once more, this time right to your server:
$ git clone [REPO_URL]
Once the clone is complete, you have all your files on the server and should be ready to rock! Moving forward, keeping your code up to date is just a matter of working remotely, pushing changes to GitHub, and pulling them down to your server when you're ready.
As I mentioned above, keeping your site up to date is easy so long as you keep both your local and remote code in sync with git. To do so, repeat Step 3 to push code to GitHub, SSH to your server, then pull the updates like so:
$ ssh firstname.lastname@example.com
$ git pull origin master
Done deal–all your code should be updated.
Mac users: using your .bash_profile
If you're on a Mac, you can use .bash_profile to setup aliases to make Terminal commands that much easier. To get started, either create or make a new
.bashprofile file in home folder. Open it up and add the following:
alias sites='cd ~/sites'
alias mdo='cd ~/Sites/mdo.com'
alias add='git add .'
alias push='git push origin head'
alias pull='git pull'
alias pp='pull && push'
alias st='git status'
alias master='git checkout master'
alias sshmdo='ssh [email@example.com]'
alias editbash='subl ~/.bash_profile'
Save out the file and open a new tab in Terminal and you can use your new aliases. The above aliases allow me to quickly get to my Sites directory, make git commands super fast, and SSH quickly.

FOX13's Tom Dees reported two suspects are still on the run after the robbery and shooting. FOX13 video shows a large crime scene in Clarksdale currently.
Sources told FOX13 News officers were investigating an armed robbery at the Corner Grocery at the intersection of Second Street and Sunflower in Clarksdale.
The shooting itself, however, occurred about five blocks from the store, across the street from the Clarksdale Police Department.
That's where Clarksdale Mayor Bill Luckett said an officer was shot at by one of the suspects from the store robbery.
FOX13's Jeremy Pierre saw the medevac helicopter land at Regional One shortly after 10 p.m. Saturday. Several unmarked police cars from Coahoma County arrived at the hospital minutes later, bringing family members to the trauma center.
Interim Memphis Police Director Michael Rallings and members of the Memphis Police Department's command staff are at the hospital offering their assistance.
The Clarksdale Police Department has not named the officer.
FOX13 learned officers are reviewing security video from the store where the robbery took place to help identify the suspects.
Several Mississippi law enforcement agencies are assisting with the investigation.

A Small Poem
I am a small girl,
And a lonely girl,
But a brave girl nonetheless;
But a pretty girl nonetheless.
I am a sad girl,
And an anxious girl,
But a wild girl nonetheless;
But a focused girl nonetheless.
And though I can't with her I can't compete--
Whoever is this she--
I've got a small poem for you and me.
Yes, a small poem for you and me.

Strawberry Music School
Musical tuition, that puts enjoyment first...
That's at the core of everything we do. Since being established in 2008, Strawberry Music School has been offering friendly, affordable high-quality tuition to all ages across South-West, West and North West London.
...created by people who love music

For details on offered classes go to South Wimbledon or Harrow branch section.
We're teachers too, so we know how this learning thing works...
We started Strawberry Music School because we'd worked for other music schools, and didn't like the way they were run. Often they would charge you, the student, more than double what they were paying us, the teacher. So we founded Strawberry Music School on the idea that if we kept our costs as low as possible, we could pay teachers more and charge you less. Which means happier teachers, and more satisfied students.
Strawberry Music School was founded by Graham Goulbourne and Agata Kubiak in 2008.
Agata is a violinist and singer with expertise in many different styles of music. Toured Europe and Asia with Avizo String Quartet, I Maestri Orchestra, Symphonic Orchestra of India. Performed and recorded alongside Symphonic Orchestra of India, Delooze, Years of Rice and Salt and Pepstar. Appeared on X Factor Live 2014 and Tedx Houses of Parliament Talks. An educator with broad experience in private, group and class tuition. Studied Music Performance, specialising in classical violin and jazz voice, at Stanislaw Moniuszko Conservatoire and London College of Music. Currently studying a PhD and working as a research assistant at LCM.
Graham has a Music Degree in Violin Performance Studies and 20th Century Music Composition and teaches Violin, Guitar, Piano and Music Theory. Originally a guitarist and drummer with a variety of pop groups in the 1980's, before venturing into classical music, Graham has a wide variety of experience within pop/rock and classical styles of music.
An enthusiastic teacher, who is keen to develop students via classical graded music exams, as well as exploring their own musical creativity.
As well as one to one tuition Graham runs any Music Groups in Wimbledon for string players and wind players (beginners and advanced)

Thoth and I stood there in silence for a while, just starring at the clones. I bite my lip, trying not to burst out into spontanious laughter.
"Well, that's new," I mutter.
Before anyone else could say anything, Luna and Norvon appeer from nowhere. Luna practically crys with laughter, whilst Norvon looks only slightly bemused.
He says very dryly, "Can they also clone our power?"
For some reason he uses the word 'power' instead of 'powers'.

Could Efficiency 2.0 Eclipse Solar? CEO Tom Scarmellino Thinks So
Published: June 14, 2011
The founder of Efficiency 2.0, Tom Scarmellino, sat down with TechCrunch TV this week to talk about how his company motivates consumers to curb their power-hogging behavior at home, and what kind of impact that makes from an environmental perspective.
A New York City clean tech company, Efficiency 2.0 runs loyalty rewards programs on behalf of its clients, big electric companies that are legally required to convince customers to use energy more efficiently.
The Efficiency 2.0 platform crunches massive amounts of data— like homeowners' demographic information, weather forecasts and more— to tailor power-saving tips, and reward offers for consumers that will matter enough, hopefully, to persuade them to make energy-related changes around the house.
Unlike OPower (perhaps the best-known brand in this space today) Efficiency 2.0 delivers its power saving suggestions mostly online, and is more about setting a personal best, than it is about outpacing your neighbors on energy efficiency.
Doing anything from installing a smart meter, to simply switching off the coffee maker the second the brew is done, can help get customers points and save money on their electricity bills. The points are redeemable for rewards like a $10 discount at Staples, or a gift card for Omaha Steaks. Efficiency 2.0 sets up some of the merchant partnerships, but also works with another NYC clean tech company, Recyclebank, to make the incentives possible.
Scarmellino confessed in the TCTV green room that one his worst indulgences, environmentally speaking, was eating too many steaks. That's a lot of saved kilowatts, though. The CEO believes that with a majority of 120 million homes in the U.S. not yet participating in an energy efficiency program, Efficiency 2.0 could make an impact that's "bigger than the entire solar industry to date," in terms of mitigating pollution and more.
Watch the video (above) for more on Efficiency 2.0′s technology, impact on the environment and partnership with Recyclebank.

General American Life bid $195,000 for the building, formerly owned by Emerald Capital Associates, Ltd. of San Antonio and the original co-name on a promissory note, now-defunct MBank New Braunfels. General American Life issued a $1.6 million promissory note in April of 1986. The notice of trustee's sale, dated March 14,1994 at the Comal County Courthouse, named Emerald Capital and MBank New Braunfels as the grantor, or borrower, on the note. Ruth Agather, an attorney representing General American Life, said the latest chapter in the life of the building was basically a default on a loan resulting in foreclosure. "General American Life did foreclose on it. They basically took it back," said Agath Winn's could be interested in building By CRAIG HAMMETT Staff Writer The Plaza bank building is empty. General American Life Insurance Company is looking for a buyer. While rumors always float, and sometimes sink, unconfirmed reports say Winn's Department Stores are at least interested in moving.

He stated that Winn's has stores located in many smaller communities. "We've got to consider all of our options," he said. "We're actually a small-town company. We appreciate things like the smalltown values, the good schools there and so forth." building now. I'm sure they would like to find a purchaser." John Oberman of Emerald Capital could not be reached for comment. Plaza Bank originally opened in 1928. In 1986, Plaza Bank became MBank New Braunfels. MBank Dallas failed in 1989, foretelling the future of MBank New Braunfels which again became Plaza Bank in 1991. Plaza Bank could not recover lost fonds from the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation which declared them insolvent in October of last year Texas Commerce Bank purchased the bank's assets but not the building, which was vacated. Since the FDIC does not pay rent on the building, there was no income coming in. Thus, a default and eventual foreclosure occurred. th* HcraM-Zdtung!

Lotto Tombs 1-8 10-11 13-23 tit milton jackpot New Braunfels' Ryan Rogers leads the way for one-act-play, soccer team Caught In the act By RICHARD TUCRINA Sports Editor Break a leg may be an actor's favorite phrase, but Ryan Rogers wants nothing to do with it this week. The New Braunfels senior, who ta the lead role in the school's one-act play production of William Shakespeare's A Midsummer Night s Dream, ta forsaken the stage for his muse of preference the goalie's box. At least temporarily. Long before Rogers was dealing with the mischievous Puck in the play, he was excelling on the field, stopping shots on goal. Rogers not only ta led the school to the area round of the UIL One-Act Play Contest, but also taken the Unicom soccer team to the threshold of its first irate title; the Unicorns open their bid for the state crown Friday evening when they play undefeated Klein at Pflugerville High School in the state semifinals. Two hours earlier, the cast of A Midsummer Night's Dream will take the stage at San Antonio Churchill High School for the area contest of one-act. Rogers plays the leading role of Oberon, the fairy king. Play director Kathy Ward insisted Rogers sit out this performance, so that the senior would be able to folly concentrate for his state title shot. Ward said she knew this double duty could put her play in a tough spot, so she prepared for the possibility long ago; Andy Meek, who assumes the role of Oberon, has been working closely with Rogers for several weeks, going over lines together, supporting each other. "I tried to keep myself covered," Herald-Zeitung photos by john HUSETH Ryan Rogers as Otreron with Amy McKinnon as Unicorns' goalio Ryan Rogers. Titania. Ward said. "The cast has been supportive of both Andy and Jim, and of course, this is a happy circumstance to have to adjust to. It's wonderful for anybody to go to state These students know how to adjust and adapt, and they know what it takes " What it took for Ward, who led New Braunfels to the state tournament in One-Act Play last year with Alice in Wonderland, was some late season cast juggling. Meek had been playing the character of Flute, but was moved to Rogers' role of Oberon. Alternate Jim Flournoy will take Meek's role of Flute. If New Braunfels breaks out of the area competition, Rogers is expected to don the black cape and resume his role for the Region competition April 22. On the field, Rogers has been a rock for the Unicorns. The All-State goalie can take a game over with his defensive play.

"So A Death-Poet Joins A Conversation"
About how some people always need the media and their 'friends' to tell them what they should buy, own, e.t.c
Canned laughter, like a cheap sit-com,
We all pretend to be at ease in the conversation,
Laugh falsely through the awkward bits,
Pretend it's a huge joke when I say,
That I write death poetry all the time,
Then they notice that I'm not smiling,
And theirs become fixed on their scarlet lips,
"So you're serious?" They ask and pretend,
That they don't think I'm a freak,
They slip away, thinking that they're oh-so-discreet,
But you can see the sideways looks,
Any scars? Is that depression in her eyes?
No, it's just someone being herself,
I suppose the concept is alien to you,
Always seeking the approval of your peers,
Always looking to the media for guidance,
I Am Myself,
I Will Stay That Way,
Don't Try And Change Me,
You're Only Wasting Time.

Continually warm temperatures mean that as the end of the month approaches, climate experts are confident that the previous September record of 14.7C, which was set in 1949, will be smashed.
A Met Office spokesman said the unseasonably high temperatures have been caused by warm winds coming up from the south west, as well as the after effects of two tropical storms.
He said: "We've been getting warmer weather due to weather systems coming from the south west, from the tropical Atlantic.
"This weather has been unusual in so much as we've had two ex-tropical storms, Gordon and Helene, that have contributed to bringing exceptionally mild weather to the UK from that region.
"By the time these storms have reached us they are no longer tropical, but they still have the warm air characteristics."
The spokesman added that cloudy weather, especially at night, had also contributed to the warm weather.
"Generally, it's also been quite cloudy, which helps to maintain the temperature. The cloud acts like a blanket, especially at night time", he said.
Night-time minimum temperatures so far this month have been particularly high, with a UK value of 11.5C - nearly 1C above the previous record of 10.6C, also set in 1949.
Jeremy Plester, of the PA WeatherCentre, added: "We have seen low pressure to the west of the UK feeding up a constant stream of warmer air, which has kept temperatures above what they should be.
"We have had some spectacular days . For example in Cornwall last Saturday it was a really gorgeous day. People were out in bikinis and swim shorts, which you wouldn't normally see at this time of the year. However, it has brought along some great deluges of rain."
Britain was hit by sizzling sunshine throughout much of the summer. July saw the highest all-time average temperature (19.7C) for a month in Central England.
It was also a record for the UK as a whole, with the average night and day temperature reaching 17.8C (64.04F), the highest since such information was compiled in 1914, the Met Office confirmed.Reuse content

So I have two skeins of yarn, partially used. I have 5.8 and 7.3 oz of each ball. I want to make something that calls for a specific yardage, equal to 3 skeins. So I looked up those skeins to find the weight and added the 3 up. I am well within the weight.
Ok, I'm being wordy - my question is, am I safe using the weight? Or should I actually measure my yardage? I really don't want to or really know the best way to measure yardage, I mean without breaking out the measuring stick. Oh, and the yarn in the pattern and what I have are both worsted weight, so it should be similar I think.
If you have the original ball band it will tell you haw may ozs and how many yds in the ball. Then just divide the number of yds from the ball band by the number of ozs from the ball band to get yds per oz. Now multiply that number times the number ozs you have (e.g. 5.8oz) and that's approximately the number of yds you've got.
If you remember the yarn name, you can look it up and see how much yardage was in them originally, then figure out how many yds per oz and go from there. Not all fibers weigh the same - 2oz of cotton may only be 90 yds while 2 oz of wool or acrylic may be 120 yds or more. So you can't compare weights unless the fibers are the same.
Another way to figure how much you have is to measure out 20 yds or so and see what that weighs. It's usually around 5g, but again, will vary according to fiber.
Thanks to both of you for the tips. I got it now.

Frustrations of the Early Morning Dreamer
Just a little drabble for a future story.
It was 3:47 in the morning, and she had woken from yet another dream with that frustrating ending. Her mind raced as she struggled to recollect ever detail and search for the importance of its meaning. Her hand grasped the pen and she listed every last image and clip of a phrase she recalled, the light from the street-lamp outside of her house providing the perfect amount of light to see without fully waking. It was nights like these that she wasn't so sure she ever wanted to wake up, and yet she knew that the choice was not hers to make.
He had met her that night in her dream in a very special place; an area of grass with a single oak tree defining the center. As she recalled the event a soft smile graced her lips as the warmth rose to her cheeks. She had dreamed of him every year since she was ten, and now at the age of fifteen, she was far too in love with him to care about anything else. In the dream she had traveled through the snow, climbing higher until she walked through a break in the tree line. There she was rewarded with the warmth of the summer sun, and by his company. It was in that moment that he appeared from behind the tree. They chatted in that glade and she was aware of the passing of five years. Just as she asked his name she woke, hearing nothing.

Authors can vanish in their own lifetimes. Rachel Ingalls is hard to find, even though she's been hailed here as one of the best US writers of the past 50 years. She's rigorous, dark, shadowy, cool, and leaves a lot unsaid but not unimagined – in short, she has all the elements you need to become a cult figure. Why hasn't she become one?
Ingalls has the most concealing of biographies; according to Graywolf Press, she was born in 1940 and grew up in Cambridge, Massachusetts. She spent some time in Germany. She had various jobs, from theatre dresser and librarian to publisher's reader. She's a film addict and has lived in London since 1965. She's the daughter of a Sanskritist and the sister of a computer scientist. In 1986, the British Book Marketing Council named Mrs Caliban one of the 20 best post-war American novels. And that, I'm afraid, is your lot.
Perhaps she's shy and writes for her own pleasure, which would be a shame because here we have an astonishing American Gothic aesthetic wedded to the English talent for understatement, the lovechild of John Collier and Joyce Carol Oates, if Oates concentrated more on her surreal side. As the Village Voice points out: "Her razor-sharp lines cut through decorum to expose writhing mental states."
As Ingalls is a private person let's respect her wishes and concentrate on the writing, but you'll have to run with me here. Mrs Caliban is a bizarre fantasy about a depressed California housewife's affair with a gentle green aquatic creature that has escaped from a laboratory. She sits with it in the kitchen and takes it around town in a wig, and somehow this ludicrous situation catches her confused mental state beautifully. Then there's The Pearlkillers, four wonderfully acidic and cryptic tales which will draw you back time and again. Or Black Diamond, five tales grouped around the idea of kinship, and Binstead's Safari, in which African lions are symbolically invoked to turn a marriage on its end. Or how about Last Act: The Madhouse, which inspired a character in Wayne Wang's film Chinese Box?
A fabulist who writes about repressed states, she springs shocks on her readers that prove psychologically fair but unexpected, and is an original, accessible voice. But what was once mainstream is now deemed too daring for regressive times, and the novella format has fallen from fashion; our loss.

A Continuation of Previous Ramblings
How to best explain my OCD habits? Hmm. I'll start out with a recent example.
I was eating dinner with one of my friends a few weeks ago when I randomly started talking about the way I eat.
"So when I drink stuff, I always count the number of sips I take. I take sips in multiples of three or four. And when I eat, I make sure that the food is either distributed evenly on both sides of my mouth, or else that it is chewed an equal number of times on the left side of my mouth as it is on the right side."
At this point, my friend's looking at me like, whaaat?
"And whenever I go up or down steps, I skip a step if it's an odd amount of stairs. I have almost everyone's stairs memorized because I pay so much attention to them."
My friend's like, you're kidding.
And it dawned on me. Why are you looking at me like that? "What, don't you do any of those things."
I was kind of shocked. "Don't you do anything like that?"
"You mean...you don't think about any of those things?" Negative again. "Wow...I can't imagine what it'd be like to live like that."
You mean...it's not normal to count the number of times you blink? It's not normal? People actually live without doing that?

Queen Victoria
The day Victoria became Queen
Victoria was only 18 years old, and had been living at the palace with her mother, the Duchess of Kent in the State Apartments.
She was awoken in the cosy room - now known as Queen Victoria's Bedroom - on the morning of 20 June, 1837 to be told that her uncle William IV had died, and she would now accede to the throne.
Galloping through the night
Her uncle William IV had died at Windsor Castle in the early hours of the morning.
The Archbishop of Canterbury with the Lord Chamberlain, Lord Conyingham, had galloped through the night to Kensington to bring the news.
Victoria's mother, the Duchess of Kent, made the party wait until 6am before waking the Princess. Victoria's own diary recounted what happened next:
'I went into my sitting room (only in my dressing gown) and alone and saw them. Lord Conyingham then acquainted me that my poor uncle, the King, was no more, and had expired at 12 minutes past 2 this morning and consequently that I was Queen'.
Poised and confident
Victoria's governess, Louise Lehzen, stood by with smelling salts just in case, but Victoria remained poised and confident throughout the meeting.
She remain as composed later in the day when she met the Privy Council at the palace, although being so small in stature her chair had to be raised on a dais so that the ministers could see her.
