Maeve & JacquesMature
They sat opposite each other at the groom's table.
Rich curtains of red hair framed her face in smooth curls. They fell from her bangs and danced at the sides of her face, beside sparkling earrings. And the rest of her fiery hair was tied back in a bun, clasped with an imitation monarch butterfly. A delicate, ephemeral creature. Its wings were perpendicular to each other. And when the moonlight hit her hair just so, it matched the brilliant orange of the wings.
He sighed.
Her fair skin was freckled from a summer's leisurely exposure to the sun. The subtle mascara that outlined her eyes brought an air of distinction. As he continued to watch her, she smiled.
"You are as beautiful as ever, Maeve," he told her. It was a French Canadian accent, and she always found it impossible not to listen.
With a slender grip, she brought the champagne to her lips. It fizzed with wonder, as it poured into her. And it was just a sip.
He brought a hand and pushed a curl behind her left ear.
Maeve laughed lightly at his gesture, rubbing one calf against the other beneath the white-clothed table. Candlelight danced in her eyes, and she saw it reflected back in his.
It was his turn to smile. The coffee stains were too whitened to be seen.
She brought a hand to his well shaven face, and found her self thinking, After being down on love for so long, how have I found myself so vulnerable?
His smile faded, but not completely, and he looked down the long table at the other guests. They were talking amongst them selves, and drinking with relentless merriment.
"Jacques, I want tonight to be special."
Something about her tone of voice betrayed to him her full meaning. It transcended her local, London accent; and the subtle drawl of the wine she'd had. He could only make firm eye contact. For a long moment, he looked at her in wordless solemnity.
Jacques, I want to spend the night with you.
He knew it was more than an act. She was thinking it. She was wanting it.
"You know my policy," he whispered. "I don't cross such boundaries with my clients."
She laughed, spitting champagne into her napkin. It fizzled up her nostrils, and she remained florid with much stifled amusement.
Nervously, Jacques cleared his throat.
And then, realization struck cold and hard. Maeve gaped, "You are not joking, are you?"
She was drawing attention; sidelong glances from down the table.
He continued in a whisper, "I've never slept with a client, and I never will."
"No, not that!" Maeve's brow furrowed with outrage, but she brought her voice down to a low whisper that seethed raspingly. "You still think of me as a mere client!"
Jacques looked cautiously at the men and women on either side of them before saying another word. His hand was trembling. He made sure the man beside him knew it was a private conversation before continuing, "I've let my 'eart get in the way."
With his accent, she was barely sure whether he'd said heart or art. She fancied the possibility, but knew it was not so. After a great pause, "What if I stop seeing you, as a client?"
"We both know that would not work well, eh?"
"Don't you love me, Jacques?"
He got up from the table, and left the wedding reception. A vein pulsed upon his forehead.
The pay phone was nestled between a vending machine and a public fountain. It offered little privacy. A man stood at it, in a formal suit with a bow-tie. He dialed a final digit and brought the set to the side of his head.
"London Escort Services, Jacques DesRoches' Office. How may I help you?" It was a young man's voice, the accent said he was from somewhere around Brampton, England.
The man at the phone brought a sweaty hand to his forehead, and ran it through the spikes of his gelled brown hair. He didn't answer for a few heartbeats. Then he spoke, with reluctance, "Cupid shot another one, Mel."
"I'm sorry to hear that, Jacques."
"Mel, I can't take it! They'll fire me, maybe blacklist me, if I start a relationship with this woman!"
"You really put your heart into this one, didn't you?"
"I've been faking it for so long, I didn't know when the real thing crept up on me."
"Well, is a refund in order?"
"No, Mel... she broke the agreement, not me." He admitted reluctantly, "I 'ave every right to be calling you at 'alf time."
The beep of a handheld device came from the other side of the phone, "Maeve McLorne? Man, she was a long-term customer. Daaaamn, mate. You've got it rough."
"Tell me about it," Jacques said as he pulled apart the bow-tie. "I'm calling it a night."
"Jacques, you can't do that! You've got an appointment to keep tonight. Going clubbing downtown with Bollywood's finest."
"Look, I'm not gonna let another drunken actress on vacation cry her martini back out onto my shoulder tonight. I'm just not up for it. Give 'er back 'er deposit, or arrange a substitute. What the 'eck, see if that Biff Roger guy is available. She won't know the difference."
"Bill, er-- William Rogers? He was dismissed for sleeping with his clients, pending three lawsuits."
"I didn't need to know that. I really didn't. I have 'alf a mind to, myself."
"Don't," the office administrator was stern.
"I won't, Mel." I won't. "I won't."
"Anyways, I'll settle things tomorrow morning, Jacques, when I'm actually in the office."
"Right, bye." Jacques hung up the phone. A single tear ran down his handsome face.

A ban on the use of collars designed to administer an electric shock to dogs and cats in Wales comes into force today (March 24) following the approval of the regulations by Assembly members yesterday.
A ban on the use of collars designed to administer an electric shock to dogs and cats in Wales comes into force today (March 24) following the approval of the regulations by Assembly members yesterday.
The provisions of the Animal Welfare (Electronic Collars) (Wales) Regulations 2010 came into force at one minute past midnight this morning. The ban is the first of its kind in the UK, and is the first secondary regulation that will be introduced in Wales under the Animal Welfare Act, which differs from the one in place at Westminster.
Wales' rural affairs minister Elin Jones said: "I'm very pleased that Assembly members have backed the Welsh Assembly Government's proposal to ban the use of electronic shock collars in Wales.
"The Welsh Assembly Government takes animal welfare very seriously, and I'm pleased that as a government, we are taking a proactive approach to promoting the welfare of animals by banning the use of such electronic training devices in Wales."
However, with the ban coming in so soon after approval, she warned: "It is important that owners are aware of the ban, and that they now take appropriate steps to comply with the law."
After four years of campaigning, The Kennel Club was in Cardiff to witness the motion to approve the ban. Before the final vote, local trainers from the club's Good Citizen Dog Scheme treated Assembly members to a demonstration of how dogs can be successfully trained without the need for shock collars and aversive training techniques.
KC communications director Caroline Kisko said: "This is a historic day for animal welfare in Wales and we are absolutely delighted that so many AMs voted in favour of the regulations.
"Today, Wales has proven that it is truly leading the way and we hope that the rest of the UK will follow by example to outlaw these cruel and unnecessary devices."
The RSPCA also welcomed the ban. The society has long held the belief that there is no place for these devices in modern animal training and recommends the use of reward based methods instead.
Claire Lawson, RSPCA public affairs manager for Wales said: "We are delighted with the stance that the Welsh Assembly Government has taken in banning the use of these instruments of cruelty. They have been consigned to the dustbin of history and I hope the rest of the UK will follow suit and do the same."

Purpose of Program Discipline Review
- Inform the college community about a CTE program or an LDC or DE discipline.
- Give Subject Area Committees (SACs) an opportunity to study specific topics related to the enhancement of student learning.
- Provide a forum for each SAC's findings to be communicated to Administration, during which the SAC and Administration can explore and determine ways to address the recommended improvements (including timelines and "check-in" points between reviews).
- Create written records of what is working well, what can be improved, and specific plans for implementing chosen improvements.
- Collect information that will contribute to institutional assessment and improvement.
Logistics for Program/Discipline Review
- Reviews will be prepared at least every five years. Career and Technical Education programs may work out some degree of synchrony with external accreditation cycles.
- SACs will have access to various profiles (demographic, enrollment, and student success--at http://www.pcc.edu/ir/program_profiles/index.html) and are encouraged to seek additional data as deemed useful from the office of Institutional Effectiveness (IE).
- Workshops will be held once each term to assist SACs embarking on or in the midst of review preparation. Participation by one or more SAC representatives in at least one workshop is expected in the year before the review.
- SACs will prepare a written report, which will include a narrative section (generally between 15 and 30 pages) following the 8-point outline provided, along with appendices as deemed appropriate to support the narrative. The primary audience for the written report is intended to be SAC members, PCC administrators, Northwest Commission on Colleges and Universities representatives, and advisory committee members.
- SACs are encouraged to share drafts with their administrative liaisons prior to submitting the final report to Academic Affairs. Combine the final report and appendix into a single Word document or PDF. Send it by 12:00 the Friday ahead of the presentation to: firstname.lastname@example.com. Reports received later that afternoon are not guaranteed to be posted to the web page before the weekend as requested by the administrators who will be responding to the Program Review.
- A presentation/discussion meeting will be held to provide an opportunity for the SAC to showcase accomplishments and challenges, and to engage administrators in discussion relating to future directions. The agenda is designed by the SAC, with up to 90 minutes alotted for the presentation, followed by 30 minutes of questions and discussion.
- The Presentation will generally involve several (if not all) SAC members, including part-time faculty, appropriate administrators, and others. Some SACs choose to invite different sets of stakeholders, such as support staff, advisory committee members, administrators/faculty from other disciplines, and/or current or former students.
- The SAC notifies and invites SAC members and all other desired stakeholders.
- The Dean of Academic Affairs will invite and send the program review to the following administrators: the District President and Campus Presidents; the Vice Presidents for Academic Affairs and for Student Affairs; the Deans of Instruction and Deans of Students; Division Deans; Program Directors; the Director of Institutional Effectiveness; the Dean of Enrollment Services; the Directors and Managers of Community-Based Learning, Disability Services, Distance Learning, Information Technology, the Library, PACTEC, and others as appropriate. SACs should expect 8 to 12 of these administrators to attend.
- The SAC is responsible for reserving a room and audio/visual equipment for the presentation. Notify the Dean of Academic Affairs when the room number is known, so other administrators can be informed.
- Room Bookings: Select a room based on the number of invitees and other needs (media, proximity to specialized space, etc). See Campus Scheduling Contacts at http://www.pcc.edu/about/facilities/contacts.html, to find a room-scheduling expert at your chosen campus.
- Audio Visual Equipment: Check the campus subpages at the Media Services webpage http://www.pcc.edu/resources/media-services/classroom-technology/ to see the permanent A/V equipment assigned to each classroom, and use Media Services' online Audio-Visual Equipment Request form if you need additional equipment to be delivered on your presentation day.
- An administrator (DOI or division dean) will make note of questions, comments, or agreements that arise from the presentation. At the end of the presentation, the Dean of Instruction assuming primary responsibility for drafting and coordinating comments for the Administrative Response will provide information about when the SAC may expect to receive the response.
- The Dean of Academic Affairs will post the program/discipline review document and the administrative response to the PCC web site: http://www.pcc.edu/resources/academic/program-review/index.html
Outlines for Program/Discipline Review
The program review outline is periodically modified in order to improve the clarity of questions asked, and the alignment with accreditation reporting requirements. The outlines that were in place for reporting in recent academic years are posted below
Outline for Academic Program/Discipline Reviews reporting in
- 2017-2018 academic year

Lexington Hotel
Chicago City Council
Lexington Hotel Closer To Landmark
January 22, 1985
LANDMARK STATUS for the former Lexington Hotel, once a brothel and the headquarters of the Capone mob, was unanimously approved Monday by a committee of the Chicago City Council. The 10-story hotel at Michigan Avenue and Cermak Road, which was also known as the New Michigan Hotel, is to be rehabilitated as an International Women's Museum and Research Center. Patricia Porter, executive director of Sunbow Foundation Inc., a non-profit organization promoting the training and placement of minority...
Legendary Lawmen: Part 5 - Frank Loesch
By Stephan Benzkofer
December 18, 2011
Frank Loesch was a crime-fighting crusader nearly unparalleled in Chicago's history. In a life span that included Abraham Lincoln's election and assassination, the Great Chicago Fire, Prohibition and two world wars, Loesch not only saw the city transformed, but saw it transformed for the better because of his nearly constant vigilance. Loesch was a lawyer who didn't much like defending criminals, so he ended up working as corporation counsel for the Pennsylvania Railroad Co. in...
Al Capone`s Old Headquarters, 93-year-old Lexington Hotel, Gains
By United Press International
February 10, 1985
A hotel once used by Al Capone as his headquarters has been declared a Chicago landmark and the present owner thinks the notorious mobster may have left some souvenirs behind. "It would not suprise me if we found either money or dead bodies," said Patricia J. Porter, who last year bought the shuttered, 93-year-old Lexington Hotel on the South Side for $500,000. The landmark designation was awarded by the Chicago City Council to the hotel where "Scarface"...
Nathan 'Nate' Batt, 1917-2011
By Joan Giangrasse Kates, Special to the Tribune
January 25, 2011
The matzo balls and blintzes, fried kreplach and kasha plate always drew a crowd to Nathan Batt's restaurant at Michigan Avenue and Cermak Road in the former Lexington Hotel. The home of Al Capone from 1928 to 1931 — where in 1986 Geraldo Rivera famously cracked open an empty vault — the Lexington was renamed the New Michigan Hotel in 1938 in an effort to distance itself from its gangster past. Mama Batt's Restaurant was on the hotel's ground floor from the mid-1950s through...
Personal Tax?

Capone's house to hit the market
By From news services
December 26, 2008
Want to own a notorious piece of Chicago history? The modest, red-brick home once owned by Al Capone is expected to hit the market this spring for an estimated $450,000, marking a new chapter for the infamous South Side landmark that has had just two owners since the death of Capone's mother in 1952. "I think there's some value in the home's history," said Barbara Hogsette, 71, who has lived in the house since 1963 but plans to relocate to California next year to be closer to her son....
Building Neglect
By Stephen R. Watson
February 19, 1994
How can a city that prides itself on its architecture allow this to happen? It is bad enough that some of our treasures like the Lexington Hotel and the Reliance Building remain vacant and derelict, but now the Garfield Park Conservatory needs help and no one seems to care. We cannot continue to neglect our old buildings.
Hollywood by the Fox
August 15, 2004
Independent movies--both made and suggested--have been popping up in the northwest suburbs lately. In West Dundee, independent filmmaker, acting coach and film-festival organizer Dave Hudson is on his third foray into kids movies. "The Block," a humorous look at a new kid's run-in and triumph over a local tough guy, is being filmed around Kane County, using local actors. Hudson, a 1991 graduate of Dundee-Crown High School, majored in television production at Southern Illinois University.
Irs Stands By For Opening Of `Capone Vault`
May 23, 1985
A nonprofit group trying to raise donations to open a "sealed vault" believed to be inside a former hangout of Al Capone may have to ante up to the feds what the notorious gangster was able to dodge till his death: back taxes. After learning that money might be buried behind a basement wall of the vacant, century-old Lexington Hotel on the city's South Side, the Internal Revenue Service served the Sunbow Foundation with documents showing the government is owed more than $800,000 of...
Capone's legacy has man flush with ideas
By Larry Potash. Special contributor Larry Potash co-anchors the "WGN Morning News."
October 3, 2003
In my mailbox at WGN, I found a brick and a business card that read "Al Capone." What happened to a horse head in the bed? Either the mob is getting more politically correct or just less creative. Actually it was the calling card for Rich Larsen of Prospect Heights. He's a huge fan of the Capone Era, and the Indiana Jones of the South Loop. He stripped hundreds of squares of green and purple bathroom tile from the gangster's former suite at the Lexington Hotel. OK ... so it's not the...
Hotels With A Past Can Be A Treasure Trove
By Anita Gold
January 16, 1987
Old objects from famous or infamous hotels are interesting to collect, especially if the pieces have some historical significance or can be documented as having been part of such establishments. Such items include tableware, towels, tablecloths, napkins, silverware, ashtrays, menus, key tags, soap bars, matchbook covers and advertisements as well as anything else with a hotel's name or logo. The pieces are especially desirable if they bear the name of a former hotel or one that has...
320 Condos Planned On East Cermak
By Jeanette Almada
March 4, 2001
What had been intended to be the site of two hotels looks like it will have condominiums instead. Originally the 1.12-acre parcel along Cermak Road between Michigan and Indiana Avenues had been slated for construction of two Marriott hotel buildings comprising 600 rooms. However, that project, approved by city officials in 1998, was never built. Richard Erlich, an Arizona-based developer, is preparing to build 320 condominiums in two buildings. A 9-story, 60-unit building is planned at the...
Another Try At Capone Hotel Revival
By Merrill Goozner
July 14, 1989
It's time for Jeopardy. The answer: Al Capone. Women in construction. Geraldo Rivera. Dr. Ganesan Visvabharathy. The question: Who's had a run at the Lexington Hotel at 22d Street and Michigan Avenue over the years? But who, Alex Trebek, is this Visvabharathy? Dr. Ganesan Visvabharathy-or Dr. Vish to friends and associates-has a plan to redevelop the former mob headquarters into a 290-room hotel. According to a $2.6 million Urban Development Action Grant application...
Southwest Gallery Sheds Light On Stained Glass
By Annemarie Mannion. Special to the Tribune
November 23, 1997
Stained glass floral panels, etched windows and Tiffany-style lamps decorate the interior of Southwest Stained Glass in Oak Lawn. But nothing draws attention like a panel tucked in one corner. It is an intricate, colorful portrait in stained glass of the gangster Al Capone. Pouring a stein of beer, Capone is surrounded by Chicago landmarks from the Roaring '20s, such as the Lexington Hotel and a club called the Four Deuces. This unique, backlit panel measures 5 1/2 by 7...
Hotel Project Wins Grant
By Merrill Goozner
September 30, 1989
A developer who is seeking to rehabilitate the Lexington Hotel at Michigan Avenue and Cermak Road on Friday won one of the last Urban Development Action Grants given by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development. In its final funding round, the UDAG program awarded $70 million to 46 projects. In the 76 prior funding rounds since 1978, the popular Carter-era program gave $4.61 billion to help finance more than 3,000 developments in the nation's cities. The $2.6 million grant for the...
Capone Haunt Surrendering Secrets
By John O'Brien, Tribune Staff Writer
December 28, 1995
Although mobologists may be disappointed over the failure to find secret tunnels or vaults at the Lexington Hotel, some architects and engineers overseeing the demolition of Al Capone's old hangout are all smiles. In its demise, the 103-year-old building with terra cotta ornamentation is proving to be a treasure-trove of information not only for historians but for managers of older, similarly constructed buildings. And there's something for crime buffs, too: wall tile from Big Al's...

Lexington Has Date With Wrecking Ball
By John O'Brien, Tribune Staff Writer
November 5, 1995
Spread the word among the guys and dolls. And watch out for falling bricks. There's a contract out on the Lexington Hotel. You know the place in the 2100 block of South Michigan Avenue, just west of McCormick Place. Big Al Capone ran his bootlegging and vice rackets out of there during Prohibition-the dry years of the 1920s when making liquor was illegal. That is, until the "G" and Eliot Ness got him on tax evasion. Now, the hotel itself is facing government assault. ...
May 13 obituary for Ruth Mary Wold incorrectly...
May 15, 1991
- A May 13 obituary for Ruth Mary Wold incorrectly identified her late husband, Walter Kelly, as a minister. Mr. Kelly was not a member of the clergy. A corrected obituary will appear today in Sec. 2, pg. 13. - The caption with a photograph in Section 1 May 14 that accompanied the carryover from Page One of a story on the settlement of the Tylenol suit on behalf of seven people in the Chicago area who died in 1982 after taking cyanide-laced capsules reversed the identities of...
Battered Bit Of History Is On Sale For $2 Million
By John O'Brien, Tribune Staff Writer
July 19, 1995
Like a Prohibition-era "taxi club" dance girl who moved from partner to partner working for a dime a tune, the last remaining fortress of Al Capone in Chicago is again changing hands. But unfortunately for the old Lexington Hotel, once the mobster's home and headquarters, the music stopped long ago. Today, the vacant 10-story building known as an example of Chicago's turn-of-the century apartment hotels is a blight seemingly abandoned by all but history buffs. Still, what...

i have nowhere to run when you're in the roomMature
I wake up in this place, in this body, but they are not mine
and the flavor still on this tongue is envy tinged with cowardice
and I recognize your face even behind these strange eyes
but you are so far away, so far away.
This body loses pieces of itself, sheds them like debris
in its wake, leaving trails or evidence or messages.
These are not my lungs sputtering in my chest, this is not
my heart, stuttering around the kernel of a memory where
this mouth found yours in a darkness that absolved us of the sin,
this is not my ache that's nestled into this stomach.

Sony has also added support for frame rates other than the usual 25 per second (in Europe) and 30 per second (in the US and Japan). Vegas will now work natively with 24p, 50p, and 60p footage. The first of these will mostly be useful to users of digital cameras that offer this frame rate, and further enhancing support for digital camera footage, the QuickTime AVC support has been improved as well. If you mix and match frame rates within a project, Vegas will handle this reasonably well, too.
So Vegas 11 has some cutting-edge features, but the interface is still essentially the same. There are a few tweaks, though. The New Project wizard has been streamlined, so now you can choose a video format and name the project within one dialog. There's now a Titles and Text plug-in, which is a new Video Media Generator, providing more sophisticated formatting tools and a variety of animations. Music soundtrack creation remains a strength, with 360 customisable options supplied. Fixing video problems is another area of strength, too. There's a capable image stabilisation filter, plus a plug-in for adjusting white balance and another for secondary colour correction. In some areas, however, Vegas lags behind both Premiere Elements and Corel VideoStudio, with just 10 video tracks available, although the times when you might need more than this will be few and far between.
When you've finished your editing, the output options have been upgraded to match the new file support options. You can upload 3D straight to YouTube, with the correct tags inserted so the online service recognises the format and adjusts playback options accordingly. You can also burn your projects to 3D Blu-ray. AVC rendering is accelerated on NVIDIA GPUs via CUDA and ATI GPUs via OpenCL, although only with compatible hardware and driver versions.
If you're not planning to edit 3D, Sony Vegas Movie Studio HD 11 doesn't have a lot of new features to entice users of earlier versions to upgrade. We would also argue that its interface is still a little more opaque than even Adobe Premiere Elements. But it is a capable, well rounded package with a wealth of features, and worthy of consideration alongside the Adobe and Corel alternatives. There's lots of editing power here, and if you want to edit footage shot on your shiny new 3D camcorder, Vegas 11 is currently your only choice.
Wow that UI looks horrendous. I tested a range of video editors a while ago, and they where all shockingly complex. I ended up using windows movie maker, basic but easy to understand.
I mean honestly would it kill these guys to invest a bit in usability? Adobe is the same.
Although I agree with Brian on the interface, After using Premiere Pro for 7 years , this is not so bad and really works efficiently, especially the GPU Acceleration on AVCHD and H.264 mov out of a Canon 5D Mark II, it's Stabilization is excellent and the unobtrusive rendering smooth, better than Premiere Elements. As this is an 1/8 price of Sony Vegas Pro 10 and based on the same operating system except not 64 bit, it still gives even Premiere Pro 5.5 a go for the money
This is a really good editing suite for AVCHD & H.264 mov clips
I have used Sony Vegas for a long time. The interface may be "intimidating" at first, but in no time you should feel yourself right at home. It great for professional editors and enthusiasts alike. Great performance. I am using Version 13 Vegas Pro. Not Movie Studio bit have used it before. I highly recommend this video editor along with a photo editor. If you hate subscriptions and want something like Adobe Pr, this is your only other option.
Does this work for Windows 10 x64? I'm having problems because it's looking for the old .net 3.5 sp1

Schedules serve three functions: allowing for commitments to be made, encouraging everyone to see her work as a contribution to a whole, and enabling the tracking of progress. Even when schedules slip, they still have value.
Big schedules should be divided into small schedules to minimize risks and increase the frequency of adjustments.
All estimates are probabilities. Because schedules are a collection of estimates, they are also probabilities. This works against schedule accuracy because probabilities accumulate (80% x 80% = 64%)
The earlier that estimates are made, the less accurate they are. However, rough estimates are the only way to provide a starting point for better ones.
with skepticism, not optimism. Invest in design to shed light on assumptions and generate reliable confidence.
Different projects demand different approaches to planning.
How planning is done is often determined by who has what authority. Requirements, design, and budget are the three kinds of project authority that impact planning.
There are some common deliverables for planning projects: marketing requirements documents, vision/scope documents, specifications and work breakdown structures.
The most powerful way to plan a project involves use of three equal perspectives: business, technology, and customer. The customer perspective is often the most misunderstood and misused.
Asking questions forces good thinking and directs planning energy effectively.
The process of defining requirements is difficult, but there are good references for how to do it well.
Problem statements and scenarios are a simple way to define and communicate requirements. They are easily converted into design ideas without losing clarity about what's important and what isn't.
Vision documents distill other planning materials into a single, high-level plan.
Writing things down serve the author and the team. It provides the basis for discussion and a point of reference that doesn't rely on our fallible memories.
The amount of detail in your vision document varies with the nature of the team and the project.
Team goals should derive from goals defined in the vision. Individual goals should derive from the team goals.
Good visions are simple, goal driven, consolidated, inspirational, and memorable.
Volume does not equal quality. It takes more effort to be concise than not.
Keep the vision alive by asking questions about the utility of the vision to daily decisions on the project.
Many teams don't properly manage the time between requirements and specifications.
Quality requirements and design explorations are the best use of that time.
Ideas are good or bad only in relation to goals or other ideas.
Constraints are useful in finding ideas, but thinking outside the box isn't neccessarily the answer. Sometimes the best solution is finding a clever way to work within the constraints.
Questions, perspectives, and improvisational games are tools for finding new ideas.
The best place to start with design ideas is the customer experience.
Ideas develop into designs through conversations between different people with different kinds of expertise.
Ideas have their own momentum. It will take longer to reign in creative work than you expect. Changes will cascade through a project.
Create checkpoints for creative work to track and manage it. Common checkpoints include proof-of-concept, idea groupings, three alternatives, two alternatives, and one design.
Use affinity diagrams to consolidate ideas.
Prototypes enable the project to confront issues early and learn from mistakes without significant risk.
Use iterations, or the periodic refinement of a prototype, to ask questions, evaluate progress, and decide on the next steps.
Create an open-issues list to track questions that need to be resolved before specifications can be completed.
do three things: ensure that the right product gets built, provide a schedule milestone that concludes a planning phase of a project, and enable deep review and feedback from different individuals over the course of the project.
Specs solve only certain problems. Team leaders should be clear on what problems they are trying to solve with specs, and what problems need to be solved through other means.
Good specs simplify. They are primarily a form of communication.
Specifiying is very different from designing.
There is an important skill in meta-dicision making, or decisions about which decisions to invest time in.
Size up decisions before spending too much time on them.
Look for the zone of indifference and opportunities for effective use of singular evaluation.
Use comparative evaluation for the decisions worthy of more investment.
All decisions have emotional components to them whether we admit it or not.
Pros and cons lists are the most flexible method for comparative evaulation. They make it easy to involve others and get additional perspectives on decisions.
Information and data do not make decisions for you.
You improve at decisions making by reviewing past decisions and exploring them for lessons and opportunities for better tactics.
Projects happen only through communication. In modern times, speed isn't the communication bottleneck, quality is.
Relationships enhance and accelerate communication.
There are several frameworks fo how people communicate with each other. PMs should be familiar with them so that they can diagnose and resolve communication breakdowns.
The are several common communication problems, including assumptions, lack of clarity, not listening, dictation, personal attacks, and blame.
Role definition is the easiest way to improve relationships.
Ask people what they need in order to do their best work. Ways to do this include: listening, clearing roadblocks, teaching, and reminding them of goals.
Releationships and communication are not low-priority work. They are essential to all of the individual activities that take place during a project.
PMs are prone to annoying others. Some of it is avoidable.
People get annoyed for many reasons. Often, it's when they feel their time is wasted, when they are treated like idiots, or when they are expected to endure prolonged tedium and mistreatment.
Good processes have many positive effects, including accelerating progress and preventing problems. But, they are difficult to design well.
Non-annoying email is concise and actionable, and it quickly allows readers to determine whether they are impacted enough to need to read more than the subject line or first sentence.
Meetings run well when someone facilitates them.
Frusttrating meetings occur when the goals are mismatched to the type of meeting.
No matter what you do, things will go wrong.
If you can stay calm and break problems down into pieces, you can handle many difficult situations.
There are some common situations to expect, which include oversights, being forced to do stupid things, resource shortages, low quality, direction changes, personnel issues, and threats of mutiny.
Difficult times are learning opportunities. Make sure you and your team take the time to examine what happened and how it could have been avoided.
Taking responsibility for situations, regardless of who causes them, always helps to expedite resolving the problem.
In extreme situations, go into damage-control mode. Do whatever it takes to get the project to a known and stable state.
Negotiation is useful not only in a crisis situation, but also in management. Good negotiators work from people's interests, not their positions.
Have clear lines of authority at all times. People should know who has decisionmaking power before a crisis occurs.
People respond to pressure in different ways. Be observant and open in how you help the team deal with the different kinds of pressure.
Trust is build through effective commitments.
Trust is lost through inconsitent behaviour on matters of importance.
Use the granting of authority and trust to enable people to do great work.
Granted power comes from the organizational hierarchy. Earned power comes only from people's responses to your actions. Earned power is more useful than granted power, although both are necessary.
Use delegation to build trust on your team and to ensure your team against adversity.
Everything can be represented in an ordered list. Most of the work of project management is correctly prioritizing things and leading the team in carrying them out.
The three most basic ordered lists are: project goals (vision), list of features, and list of work items. They should always be in sync with each other. Each work item contributes to a feature, and each feature contributes to a goal.
There is a bright yellow line between priority I work and everything else.
Things happen when you say no. If you can't say no, you effectively have no priorities.
The PM has to keep the team honest and close to reality.
Knowing the critical path in engineering and team processes enables efficiency.
You must be both relentless and savvy to make things happen.
Mid-game and end-game correspond to the middle and the end of the project.
If on any day the project is not going well, it's your job to figure out what's wrong ans resolve it. Repeat this throughout mid-game.
Projects are complex non-linear systems and have significant inertia. If you wait to see acute problems before taking action, you will be too late and may make things worse.
When your project is out of control, you are flying behind the plane, which is a bad place to be. Sanity checking is the easiest way to stay in front of the plane. There are both tactical and strategic sanity checks.
Consider how to take action to correct a situation in the safest way possible. The larger the action, and the further along the project is, the more dangerous the actions are.
The coding pipeline is how work items are managed during implementation. There are aggressive and conservative ways to manage the pipeline.
Milestone-based planning and the coding pipeline provide opportunities to make safe course corrections for projects.
Change control is how you throttle the rate of medium- and low-level change on a project.
Big deadlines are a series of small deadlines.
Any milestone has three smaller deadlines: design complete (specs finished), feature complete (implementation finished), and milestone complete (quality assurance and refinement finished).
Defining exit criteria at the beginning of milestones improves the team's ability to hit its dates.
Hitting dates is like landing airplanes: you need a long, slow approach. And you want to be ready to take off again quickly, without having to do major repairs.
You need elements of measurement to track the project. Common elements include daily builds, bug management, and the activity chart.
You need elements of control to project level adjustments. Common elements of control include review meetings, triage, and war team.
The end of end-game is slow, mind numbing process. Give yourself and your team the benefit of learning from what went well and what didn't.
If fortune shines on you, and your project makes it out the door, be happy. Very, very happy. Many people, through no fault of their own, never get that far. Plan a grand night. Do ridiculously fun and extravagant things. Give yourself stories to tell for years to come.
Politics are a natural consequence of human nature. When people work together in groups, there is limited amount of authority, which must be distributed across different people with different desires and motivations.
All leaders have political constraints. Every executive, CEO, or president has peers of superiors who limit their ability to make decisions. In general, the more power a person has, the more complex the constraints are that they must work within.
There are many different kinds of political power, including rewards, coercion, knowledge, referent and influence.
Power is misused whet it's applied in ways that do not serve the project goals. A lack of clarity around goals, unclear resource allocation or decision-making processes, or misunderstandings can contribute to the misuese of power.
To solve political problems, clarify what you need. Identify who has it, and then assess how you might be able to get it.
If you are involved in project management, your are defining a political playing field around you. It's up to you to decide how fair or insane it is.

CITY firm Gouldens has scored a major taxation appeal victory, securing what is believed to be the highest level of hourly rate awarded for legal work in any County Court.
The firm recovered a rate of u217 per hour, including uplift, after an appeal hearing in the Central London County Court for litigation conducted by a partner. It was double that originally allowed for the disputed legal costs in NSP v Truebell. Gouldens acted for NSP.
Gouldens partner Allan Henderson says: "Hopefully, in future, County Court taxations people will be able to refer to this case."
The successful result follows a survey last year by the London Solicitors Litigation Association (LSLA) which showed that expense rates awarded by London taxing officers in civil cases fell short by up to 40 per cent.
The Chief Taxing Master circulated the results to other masters and officers. A landmark case followed in KPMG Peat Marwick McLintock v The HLT Group, where Mr Justice Auld ruled that the LSLA figures were a valuable guide to current costs in central London.
Peter Ashdown-Barr, of Lawyers Financial Management, Gouldens' costs draftsmen, says: "This case is a victory for litigants who reasonably instruct central London firms of solicitors in County Court actions.

Yesterday I asked if 'Mountain Snow' typically develop a group of
leaves in the center of the mound with a very wide white margin
and/or heavy streaking.
Today "Butch" responded "mine is what i think is the typical
streaked plant." So I just did what I should have done first! I
looked up Mountain Snow at the Hosta Library and here is what I
found: "The white often jets into the plant leaf randomly following
certain veins to the center vein itself, and young new growth often
shows much more white." And the final picture clearly shows new
growth in the center that looks exactly like my plant.
Yeah! Hosta Library!!

Owner info
Year Purchased: 2007
About the owner: As California natives recently moved out of the Midwest to Texas, we have grown to appreciate warmer climates. Islands, beaches, the sea air...we sure miss it! Of course, after experiencing the white sand and clear waters of Florida, we have found a new coast to love. After traveling to the Bahamas, Hawaii and the Caribbean, we knew we wanted vacation property right on the beach, but something closer and more affordable for our guests. That is why we chose the Emerald coast of Florida.
Why the Owner Chose West Panama City Beach, Panama City Beach, FL, USA:
Randy and I love the beach and wanted to share the experience with others. Being on the ground floor and being able to view the beach right out the back door is great! We love sitting on the patio and watching the birds and crabs playing among the sea oats and sand. Nature at it's ever-changing best right outside our door. Families with children as well as senior adults appreciate not having to climb stairs, fear high balconies or dealing with elevators. Our resort is very out of the way and everything you need is right here. The private uncrowded beach is one of the biggest reasons we chose our condo at Pinnacle Port, a gated resort on the quiet west end of Panama City Beach.
The Unique Benefits at this Condo:
Being right on the ground floor and right on the beach is awesome! Truly a rare find in Panama City Beach, and so affordable for most budgets. We love being able to park our car right out front and no stairs or elevators. Our guarded/gated property is unique in that it is nestled between Lake Powell and the Gulf. Both on our property! We continue to keep our prices for our ground floor unit low, even $100s below the competition, even other ground floor units of the same caliber. Our quiet little corner is just that...QUIET! We love watching the dolphins play as we drink our coffee on the patio in the mornings.

Wheezer had finally left after two hours had gone by. I needed two bags just to be able to walk again. Johnny didn't even untie me before he stuck me with the Needle, which was a kind gesture at that point. Everything seemed so much darker now. Every breath hurt. Every blink made me want to curl up in a ball and die. And that's exactly what I did. But, unfortunately, I still woke up the next morning.
The bruises were worse the following day. It took me almost ten minutes to make it six feet to the bathroom. I stared in the mirror at the marks on my body. There wasn't a single inch of me left untouched. I didn't know where Johnny had gone, but I had slept through the whole night for the first time in almost a month. It was despicable really. I had no idea what to think. All I knew was that Johnny had turned me into his own personal form of human currency. No, it wasn't fair for me to solely blame him. I let it happen.
I let him destroy me. I even knew that he was scamming Wheezer out of his shit because he had a wad of cash in the nightstand, and I still did it.
I let him destroy me.

Hidden blades, throwing daggers, and swords, oh my! With Assassin Creed III coming out this October I thought we'd look back at where it all started. Take a step into the Master Assassin Altaïr's boots and see what being an Assassin really means… And maybe review a game along the way for kicks.
You start out as Desmond Miles, who is being held captive by Abstergo, a company who basically rules the world. You have the ancestral line of an assassin, Altaïr. While you are being held captive, they study you and your ancestor extensively. They have a machine called the "Animus" which can synch you to your ancestors' lives. Think of it like the Matrix – minus the giant needle in your head. Once inside the Animus you follow in the footsteps of Altaïr by completing missions, killing contracts, and saving civilians. Following in his footsteps earns you "synchronization" (or health); straying away from his path will lose that health, and if you go too far – such as killing a civilian or going to an area you aren't supposed to yet – you will die.
Once you have the basic controls down you are thrust into Altaïr's life in the 12th century. You start by spying and then chasing a target through a cavern. Your arrogance, however, not only loses the target but gets another assassin killed in the process. You are sentenced to death by the Assassin's leader, Al Mualim. However, he instead strips you of your Master Assassin rank making you nothing more than a child and you must work your way back up to the top. Altaïr must first prove himself again if he wishes to leave Masyaf, the Assassin's home. After he does this he is given contracts in the Holy Lands which are mainly Jerusalem, Acre, and Damascus. When you are leaving Masyaf you are given two options: You can either fast travel to the city you have been to, or you can travel through The Kingdom (a neutral open area between the cities) to the place you want to go. If you want the achievements/trophies and you don't mind sucking, oh, about three to four hours out of your life, take the long route. By the way, that is three to four hours if you are using a guide to find all the effing flags. If you are doing it on your own, more power to you and good luck. Once you are in the target's city you can't just go assassinate the guy. That would just be too easy. You have to talk to that city's Assassin head and get his permission. Wait there's more. To get his permission you must eavesdrop on five people, pickpocket three, and collect flags for two assassins. I made those numbers up but you get the idea. It's just a bunch of monotonous work for you to do. The flags were especially annoying. "Hey go collect my flags because I'm too lazy to do it. Oh, and did I mention I'm timing you? You'd better hurry." What an ass. After you do all that, you can finally go kill the target. Once you kill him, though, you have to get the heck out of the city because every guard instantly knows he's dead and you did it. You get one to three contracts per memory fragment. You return to Abstergo for various reasons, like the Animus overheating, prolonged exposure is bad, etc. Then you are shut in your room. You can eventually explore the office/lab or you can sleep and start the next session. This repeats until the last memory fragment which is something entirely different that I won't go into for spoiler reasons. But until you get there it's get contract, do all that crap to get his permission again, kill contract, and repeat. It's a very repetitive game.
Other than the repetition the game play is fairly smooth. The graphics are stunning and the music follows through the game beautifully. There weren't many, if any, glitches that I noticed. The mechanics of the game are almost flawless. There was a little frustration on the free running physics when he would jump the opposite direction I wanted. The combat, however, was amazing and it improved with each game. You can't fight with the hidden blade in this one but you do get throwing knives, a dagger, and a sword. They have some striking combos and counters in the first game, all of which look incredible. There is just something satisfying about jumping off a building onto someone and stabbing them with a hidden blade. That isn't sadistic or anything, right?
I'll be honest I loved this game. I could look past the repetition to enjoy the storyline and combat aspects. However, I know most people don't, won't, or can't. If you want the storyline for Assassin's Creed, rent the game or read a wiki on it. Sadly, the game isn't worth buying. It has next to no replay value, and you can get all the achievements in one play through if you know what you are doing, two if you don't. There's no multiplayer, so it has no lasting appeal after beating it with the repetition being so overwhelming.
For $14.99, Assassin's Creed is Not Worth It.

Based on 7 Reviews
odorless...not sticky
Great product for bruises and pain. Plus bonus tablets. They really helped with my recent tooth extraction.
- Gail
I've used arnica pellets for years, but just recently tried the gel. I ride horses once a week with a friend. Since I don't ride everyday, my inner thighs and hips usually complain a little the next day. I tried rubbing the arnica gel on the muscles that usually are most sore, and literally had no stiffness the next day. Color me impressed!
- Lindsey
Great for sore muscles and injuries!
This stuff really works by stimulating circulation. I rub it on bruises, sore muscles, etc. I sprained my fingers and it really helps with the pain. Love this product and this is a reasonable price about the same as Walmart.
- Dori
Effective remedy for sore muscles!
I have used Boron Arnica gel for several years. It's great at reducing soreness from muscles, sprains, bruises.
- Ann Carlisle
Relief at last
I've tried so many other gels designed to help with pain and none worked as well as this one. I love this gel.
- Parker C.
Works Great!
I love this gel. It really helps with my foot pain and shoulders. I use it regularly and it truly relieves my pain. It is much cheaper here on Thrive than anywhere else. I recommend trying it!
- B.Newman239
Gel for sore spots + Tabs for sore body
If my hands are sore from a lot of weeding, I use the gel just in the achy areas. If I'm sore over all (from a fall or full-body exertion) then the tabs are the way to go. Love this combo pack because I always have Arnica in the form that I need. Great for minimizing bruising too. Most effective when used right after an injury & combined with ice packs.

In My Dreams: Disagreement
Bad Guy by Eminem. The internal struggles and conflicts.
This song is a real gem. It's basically a seven minute rant of Eminem's entire career; everything he regrets, everything he doesn't. Eminem is torn in half almost, as he conflicts with himself in one song. He praises himself, yet hates himself, and that's powerful. At one point he quotes one of his most popular songs from the 2000s, Stan, as he seems like he regrets writing it. He says "Guess 90 on the freeway wasn't the brightest idea," in the same enunciation as the song's main character Stan does when he is angry that Eminem wouldn't answer his fan mail. Eminem always brings his pain to the mic, and this one of his greatest examples.

In a sense, Keown was the last in - and will now be the last out.
He played alongside David O'Leary and Tony Adams but walked out of Highbury as an impatient 19-year-old in the early days of George Graham's reign.
He returned seven years later a much wiser individual. By then Arsenal had won two titles and Dixon, Adams, Bould and Winterburn had laid down the roots of a defensive dynasty that remains unique in modern football.
This summer's retirement of Dixon and Adams means that Keown is now the last survivor of a defence that changed very little for more than a decade. Although he missed the early days of the Graham era, he's played a significant role in the two Double triumphs under Arsene Wenger.
In fact, his career is about to reach the kind of milestone that is becoming increasingly rare in the Premiership. Sunday's annual curtain-raiser to the season, previously known as the Charity Shield, will be his 400th firstteam game for Arsenal.
In most of those games he played alongside Adams and Dixon. "When I went back for pre-season training this time it was different," he said. "The familiar faces weren't there - no Tony and no Lee."
Keown, in fact, joined Arsenal in 1982, a year before Adams. "When I was a youngster learning the ropes at Highbury, the coach, Don Howe, used to tell us how good the Double-winning team of 1971 had been," he said.
"I've never forgotten that because it made me want to do better than them. In the same way I hope that the young players at the club now want to do better than we have done."
Keown acknowledges that he was a latecomer to the Arsenal defence - rejoining the club from Everton in 1993 - and is also quick to praise others who have had a role to play.
"Andy Linighan, for instance," he said. "He scored a goal in the FA Cup Final. Without that goal we couldn't have won the Cup Winners' Cup the following season. You've also got to say that David Seaman has had a bit to do with it too."
Although Keown has two years remaining on his Arsenal contract, he realises that retaining a first-team place will become increasingly difficult. "The manager has to take things forward with his new players," he said.
"He has my full support because I think he and his staff have extended my career. I've played the best football of my life under Arsene Wenger. He's taken my game to another level and I appreciate that.
"People talk about Herbert Chapman being a pioneering Arsenal manager in the Thirties, well I'd put Arsene Wenger in the same category. He's an innovator, on and off the field."
Keown's experience could be a vital factor this season as Arsenal defend their Premiership and FA Cup Double. "We were going for a consecutive Double in 1999 until about April," he recalled. "We nearly did it again but we finished a point behind Manchester United, who also beat us in the FA Cup semi-final.
"We're going to face the same pressures this season. Everyone will be trying to take our two trophies. But I feel we learned a lot last season and I think this squad still has much to achieve.
"We have so many good players now. Ashley Cole is an outstanding full-back. In fact, both the full-backs are exceptional. Sol Campbell had a great World Cup and is now looking the part and I think our new French centre-back Pascal Cygan will surprise a few people."
Sadly, Keown returned from the World Cup in Japan without kicking a ball for England, an experience he first lived through in France in1998. "I think that being knocked out of the tournament is even more disappointing for those in the squad who don't play," he said.
He may have finished playing for England - but he certainly hasn't finished playing for Arsenal.

In mid October of 1974, David and Emily took the week after Emily's due date to visit Joanie and Stuart in Ottawa. Emily was having a complicated pregnancy, and she was a week over due. She wanted to be close to the hospital if anything went wrong. Stuart and Joanie's apartment was only a block away from Ottawa General, so when Emily went into labour, it was a quick trip to the emergency room for all four of them. Emily didn't want to take the car to go one block, but David wouldn't let her walk.
"David, you're being silly I haven't even gone into hard labour yet. I'm not going to give birth on the sidewalk if I walk one block!"
"I know darling, but you've been in intermittent pain for the last month. I don't want you taking any chances. Would you please get in the car before you do give birth on the sidewalk?"
As David and Emily were arguing, David ran to the hospital and borrowed a wheel chair. He presented it to Emily.
"Would you consider going in this wheel chair, Em?" Stuart asked.
"What a thoughtful idea, Stuart, thank you!"
Emily got in the wheel chair, and David pushed her to the hospital. Joanie followed with Emily's suitcase. Stuart walked along beside his wife. Emily was admitted to the maternity ward immediately. David and Stuart paced the floor in the waiting room, while Joanie went to find a vending machine for coffee.
"I'm so glad you let us stay with you for the last week, Stuart. It's lucky that you live only a block from the hospital."
"Are you kidding? We absolutely loved having you! Joanie has gotten so emotionally close to Emily since we moved to Ottawa. I think it may be a twin thing. Their bond transcends the miles.
"I know. Joanie was in our room yelling for me to wake up just as Emily went into labour. Emily was just waking up herself when her water broke. Sometimes I think that Joanie is experiencing this difficult pregnancy too.
Joanie joined the two men, juggling three cups of coffee between her two hands.
" I could only get coffee with whitener and sugar out of the vending machine, guys, so you'll have to drink it as is, even though you like it black, David."
David takes one of the cups with a grin.
"I think I can manage. When the hospital coffee shop opens later, I'll get real coffee for all of us."
"I called mom and dad, David. They're going over to tell your parents. Your dad has been so sick since our wedding, that they'll probably stay at home. I'll call them when there's any news." Joanie told David
A young doctor joins the group and takes David's elbow, and begins to steer him away. The doctor looks very worried.
"Mr. Larson, may I speak to you privately please?"
"Of course, doctor. Joanie, Stuart, I'll let you know what's going on as soon as I know."
The doctor leads David to a small private doctor's lounge.
"As you know, your wife is a week overdue. The baby is very big, and Mrs. Larson's birth canal is very small. We were going to do a caesarean section in two days' time."
David is worried, exasperated, losing patience.
"I know all that, we went through this two days ago. Just cut to the chase. What is going on with my wife and baby?"
"I'm getting to that. The baby's feet are where it's head should be. It's called a breach birth. When Mrs. Larson went into labour, the baby got stuck. We're doing a caesarean section now, but there has been some other serious complications."
David sat wearily on a couch, his head in his hands. He fought off tears.
"The umbilical cord is wrapped around the baby's neck, it's in distress. Your wife is hemorrhaging and we're trying to get it under control. I need a decision from you, Mr. Larson. There is a good chance that we might be able to save one of them.
You must choose. Your wife, or your baby? I know this is a dreadful thing to ask, but I must know now. There isn't much time."
David put his head in his hands, tears streamed down his face.
"I don't know, how can I.. I've loved her all my life... but our child, our son or daughter, how can I..."

City Not Resting
Things move strangely in the City - my most well known - really only - city and childhood home.
I like mostly about my City:
River-statues, bridge-walking, coffee-talking and tea.
My most excellent friends and me.
Jolly good company 'round pitcher or pint.
'Round books, benches, beds. Staying in and Benson 'n hedges.
This going to and fro, City bustling - it's exhausting.
I like my City resting in my airspace-at my place.
Only now the City isn't resting - the City is encircled and surrounded - momentarily grounded.
Harboring in a multitude of misunderstandings oh those familiar familial ships - they make it so easy!
sometimes slipping downtown - my Cities heart - 'maybe you'll find some little place you can go to where they never close'
what comfort there in a heart! Only the City and I are not at rest - encircled - surrounded - hounded!
But "you may find somebody kind to help and understand you - someone who is just like you - and needs a gentle hand to guide them along"
*Downtown - Petula Clark
*I don't like B&H's - it just rhymed - I like No.7 - cuz I'm cheap

Suppose you converted funds in a traditional IRA to a Roth IRA last year, but now you realize that you made a mistake. Strategy: Undo the Roth conversion. The IRS allows you to "recharacterize" a Roth back into a traditional IRA as long as you meet the timing requirements.
Small Business Tax Deduction Strategies
Section 179 vehicles should be a key part of your small business tax deduction strategies. Can Section 179 property fit in with your business tax strategies?
Let Business Management Daily help you get each and every rental property depreciation credit and business tax deduction you're entitled to.
Taxpayers once were able to use losses from real estate, cattle breeding, oil and gas and equipment leasing deals to offset highly taxed income. Then the government imposed "passive activity loss" rules that turned tax shelters into a dying breed. Strategy: Invest in Passive Income Generators (PIGs).
At this point, it's anybody's guess if the Section 179 allowance will be increased this year. Small business owners can't count on it so they might have to take regular depreciation deductions. Strategy: Buy qualified property before Oct. 1.
Although the real estate market nationwide hasn't returned to the "glory days" property taxes are still going through the roof. Strategy: Appeal a property tax assessment when you have reasonable grounds.

One unified global tour coming, predicts Kuchar
(Reuters) - The PGA and European Tours may soon join forces to create one unified global golf circuit, world number eight Matt Kuchar predicted on Tuesday, a move which could address scheduling complaints from top players.
The American believes the Asian and Australian Tours could also figure in the unified circuit, which was first mooted by golf great Greg Norman in the 1990s.
"I absolutely do see the PGA Tour, the European Tour, the Asian Tour, the Australian Tour somehow turning into some sort of global world tour," Kuchar told reporters in Melbourne on Tuesday ahead of this week's Australian Masters.
"I think it will be in my time.
"I think it seems like it's coming quicker in this last year ... we may all be saying Greg Norman was right in the day."
Packed schedules on both the European and U.S. tours allow players to compete for big purses for 12 months of the year but problems have arisen of late.
The coveted cream of top golfers are unwilling to play every week, leaving tours and sponsors adopting different tactics to protect their value and retain talent.
World number one Tiger Woods has been criticized by HSBC for skipping their lucrative World Golf Championship event in China in recent years, the American preferring a shorter schedule to boost his chances to add to his 14 major championship titles.
Woods told Reuters last week he backed other players to do the same. Continued...

Thursday, July 2, 2009
Older women have sex with younger boys seems to be a recent trend. However, what makes the following story unusual is that Richael Michels, 45, had sex with a sixteen year old boy that was dating her daughter. But what makes the story really weird is that she lured the boy into the furry lifestyle.
It seems that Furries are people who like to dress up as animals. Such people refer to it as the Furry Lifestyle. The Furries dress up and meet other Furries for parties and conventions. Mostly it is all good fun. However, there is a subculture within the Furry community that likes to have Furry sex. Furry sex is when people dressed up as animals have sex.
Rumor has it that Massachusetts will be the first state to offer Furry partner health benefits.
