A terrific idea and the willingness to work to make it succeed are cornerstones of a great business; however, a great business plan is the cement that holds the foundation of your business or potential business together. Simply put, a business plan is a roadmap for your business. When you put your business plan down on paper, you are laying a solid foundation for the growth and success of your business. A written business plan not only helps business owners to have a guide in how to grow their business; a written business plan is also a requirement if your business will need to borrow money from a lending institution or from private investors.
Before Starting Your Business
The U.S. government's Small Business Administration has a website made for the sole purpose of helping Americans run their own businesses. The SBA's site contains all that you need to know about starting your own business. This valuable site can help you with a range of details concerning your own business, from how to register your business with the government to sharing laws about importing and exporting. If you're a new business owner or considering starting your own business, like many of our featured Entrepreneur Success Stories, you'll likely want to take advantage of this valuable resource to answer some of the questions you might have about starting and owning your own business.
In my last post, I talked about 5 things you should do before you start a business. Today, we're going to go over how to write a business plan for your business. As I mentioned earlier, a business plan is a guide, or a road map, for your business.
The Executive Summary
As you write your business plan, you'll want to include an Executive Summary. According to the SBA, an Executive Summary is described this way:
The executive summary is often considered the most important section of a business plan. This section briefly tells your reader where your company is, where you want to take it, and why your business idea will be successful. If you are looking for financing, the executive summary is also your first opportunity to grab a potential investor's interest.
The executive summary should highlight the strengths of your overall plan and therefore be the last section you write. However, it usually appears first in your business plan document.
As you write your business plan, the Executive Summary will be your chance to "sell" your business. Your Executive Summary will contain your mission statement, your company information and a brief summary of the services/products you will provide. In essence, your Executive Summary will be a summary of what you write in the rest of your business plan. This is why the SBA recommends that although your Executive Summary will be the first to appear in your business plan, that you should write it last.
Company Description
Your Company Description will appear after your Executive Summary in your business plan. Your Company Description will:
- Explain the nature of your business and the marketplace you hope to satisfy
- Tell the reader how your business and its services meets the needs of your target market
- Lists the specific types of consumers or businesses that your company will serve
- Explains what specific edge your business will have that will make it succeed against its competitors
In short, the Company Description explains what your business will have to offer, who it will serve, and how it will benefit its clients better than other similar companies. Your Company Description is your chance to give a quick yet inviting sell to potential investors.
Market Analysis
Next, you'll want to include your Market Analysis. Your Market Analysis presents a picture of your industry, your market knowledge of that industry, and any research findings you may have completed of your industry and its market. Your Market Analysis should include:
- Your business industry's size and growth rate. Explain the nature of your industry, and include facts about your industry's potential to continue to thrive.
- Information about your target market. Tip: don't make your target market too big. Narrow it down to a field that has a big enough base that there is room for your business, but not so big of a market share that you'll get lost in the crowd.
- The distinguishing characteristics of your company. Here you'll share the vital needs of your potential customers and how you can fill a missing void in what they need. You'll also share the demographics of this group, where they are located and any seasonal or cyclical trends within the group.
- The size of your primary target market. Here you'll share data-driven facts on the size of your primary target group of potential clients, as well as the forecasted market growth for this group. In short, you'll be looking to prove that your business has a target market that will sustain its success and growth over a long period of time. You'll also share what percentage of that market share you expect to gain, and give logical reasons behind your calculations.
- Your pricing structure, gross margins, and discounts you might plan to use. In this paragraph, you'll explain what your price structure is, why you think your price structure is competitive and what types of profits you can reasonably expect. If you've done any research studies to back up these numbers, include that as well.
- Your competitive analysis. This section will identify your competitors by product line or service, and by market segment. Here you'll share your competitors' market share, strengths and weaknesses, how your competitors may hinder you in the market, and your plans for overcoming those barriers.
- Any regulatory restrictions that impact your business. Here you'll share any regulatory requirements that affect your business and how you'll ensure compliance, as well as the financial impact of those regulatory requirements.
Organization and Management
This section of your business plan will include details about the ownership of your company, your company's organizational structure, legal structure (i.e. is it a C corp? An LLC?) information and qualifications of any board members, and profiles of your management team.
The goal of the Organization and Management section of your business plan is to explain who is assigned to do what in your business, what their qualifications are and what they will bring to your business to help ensure it succeeds.
You'll also want to share the proposed salary and benefits package for each member of your management team, as well as including an organizational chart.
Make sure your Organization and Management section includes very specific information about each management team member and board of directors' members, explaining their specific experiences, strengths and workforce history that will make them a valuable asset to your team.
Service/Product Line Section
The next step in creating your business plan will be to describe the service or product line that you intend to provide to clients. More precisely, your service or product line section will explain in detail the specific benefits of your product or service from a consumer standpoint.You should also explain in this section how your product or service meets your customers' needs, what advantages your product or service has over your competitors' products or services, and last but not least, what stage of development your product or service is in.
In addition, be sure to include any patent or patent pending information for your product, as well as including a complete description of any research and development work that has been performed on your product or is currently being performed on your product.
Sales and Marketing
After completing the work on your service/product line section, you'll work on the sales and marketing section of the business plan. The sales and marketing strategy for your business plan should be thorough and detailed. For the marketing portion of your plan, you should provide details on the following four marketing strategies:
- Market penetration, which explains how you plan to successfully penetrate your target market
- Growth strategy, which details which how you plan to ensure continued growth of your business, both from an internal and an external perspective
- Distribution strategy, which outlines which channels of distribution you'll use to market and sell your product or service
- Communication strategy, which details how you plan on reaching your target market/potential customers
Your sales strategy should have different components to it as well. The two main components that should be included in your sales strategy are:
- An outline of your sales force strategy, which explains how you plan to implement your sales force. The sales force strategy tells what types of sales representatives you'll use (internal or independent), how many sales reps you plan to recruit, and what type of recruitment strategies you'll use to develop your sales team. This part of your plan will also include your techniques for training your sales force, and information about how you plan to compensate your sales force.
- An outline of your planned sales activity. This part of your business plan will detail what process your sales team will use to determine and reach potential customers, and will also share in detail what your goals are for the number of customers contacted per day, the percentage of successful sales from that number, and expected average dollar size sale from each customer. In layman's terms, your planned sales activity section will give a detailed plan of who you plan to sell to, how you plan to reach them, and how much you plan on selling them in a given time period. These types of detailed sales plans and numbers show potential investors that you've done extensive research on your target market and that you have a detailed plan for convincing your target market that they need your product.
Funding Request
If you are seeking monetary investments for your business, this part of your business plan will outline the specifics of your funding request. A professional and complete funding request will include information such as:
- Your current funding request or expectation
- A 5-year projection for any additional funding
- A detailed plan of use for any funding you receive, outlining purposes such as working capital, debt payoff or business acquisition capital
- Any future financial plans that are vital to the health of the business, such as potential buyout of the business, acquisition of another business, plans to sell the business, etc.
A potential business investor wants to have a clear picture of where the money invested in your business will go before that investor is willing to hand over a check. For that reason, be sure that your funding request is clear, concise, honest and thorough. Also, make sure to include any documented historical and prospective financial data will also help potential investors to make an informed decision as to whether or not they want to help fund your venture.
Financial Projections
Depending on the length of time your business has been in operation, your Financial Projections section will look different. For a new business venture, the Financial Projections section will include prospective financial data that details clear and accurate estimates for sales, expenses, profit and loss over a projected five-year period.
For an established business, the Financial Projections section should include not only the five-year projected financials but detailed historical financials on sales, expenses, profits, and losses as well. It's important when asking potential investors for funding that your Financial Projections section of your business plan has numbers that are consistent with the amount of money your business wishes to borrow. In other words, if you expect to borrow a million dollars for your business, and your sales over the last 5 years have consistently landed at the $50,000 mark, you might raise some red flags with potential investors. When determining the amount of money you wish to borrow, be sure to present reasonable and consistent numbers to potential investors.
Final Tips for Making your Business Plan Stand Out From the Crowd
In order to make your business plan as appealing as possible to potential investors, consider implementing the following tips:
- Make sure your business plan is professional and well-written
- Be clear and concise about what your business has to offer, where you want your business to go and how it'll get there
- Have thorough research to back up your marketing, sales, and financial projections
- Be sure to establish well how your business can outperform the competition in servicing customer needs
A well-written business plan will take time, research and a lot of hard work; however, if your business idea is as valuable to potential clients as you think it is, taking the time to create a well-written business plan will be worth all of the effort that you put into it.

Spring has finally sprung down at Kew. London's middle classes are flocking back to The Royal Botanical Gardens — custodian of the world's largest living plant collection — after the interminable Narnia-like winter.
Notable Londoners enjoying the warm March sunshine with their children last weekend included former Mayor Ken Livingstone and political writer Andrew Rawnsley.
Meanwhile, from the office where he supervises the 300-acre site, Kew's director, Professor Stephen Hopper — London's gardener-in-chief and a world authority on the kangaroo paw plant — now gazes out over drifts of purple crocuses rather than barren frosty ground.
But threatening to ruin this seasonal optimism is a persistent chill hanging over the 251-year-old Gardens in the shape of a highly critical report.
A major government-commissioned review has identified serious concerns about the state of Kew's funding that it said "clearly threatens" its reputation as a world-class research centre. Scientific posts are going unfilled and already "the quality of Kew's substantial research base has diminished".
Alarmingly, the review also raised the possibility that its 151-year-old Grade I-listed Temperate House, the largest Victorian glasshouse in the world, may have to be closed on health and safety grounds because of a shortage of cash for refurbishment.
The tone of the 51-page report makes it clear that Kew faces a huge task if it is to maintain its triple role as centre of scientific excellence, much-loved visitor attraction and custodian of more than 40 listed buildings. The real fear is that something will have to give.
The detailed review, written by a high-level team headed by former Natural History Museum director Sir Neil Chalmers, found that "the task of ensuring a sustainable financial future for RBG Kew [is] a particularly challenging one" at a time of tight squeezes on public spending.
The cash shortage will come as a surprise to many of Kew's visitors, already resentful of the £13 entry fee; a visit to the Gardens will typically cost a family of four £50 — more once refreshments and parking are added.
As one young London parent put it: "It's too expensive — I feel I can get the same level of enjoyment from a day out to Richmond Park, which is free. That has swathes of parkland, ornamental gardens, great coffee shops, historical buildings and free parking."
The already high admission fee means that a further hike to raise more revenue is probably out of the question. Professor Hopper, a 58-year-old father of three from Perth, Australia, maintains that it is in line with other family attractions such as London Zoo, but admits it is "approaching the upper limit" of what is possible.
Nor is there much chance of more Government money. Kew was handed £28.5 million in taxpayer cash last year, £22 for each of its 1.3 million visitors. The subsidy has risen by 18.2 per cent in real terms since 2001, although it has plateaued in more recent years and in the current climate just to keep it at last year's level will be a major achievement. Kew also raises £23.4 million a year by its own efforts, including £5.5 million collected through the entry charge, but also from catering, the Kew Innovation Unit, which exploits its scientific research for commercial purposes, and other forms of fund-raising.
Yet the report found that Kew's management had failed to identify some basic efficiency savings and suffers from an inward-looking "boffin culture" that prevents it making the most of its globally famed assets — 30,000 species of plants and 14,000 different varieties of trees.
Kew, it says, "seems to adopt a quiet and understated, even a modest approach to much of its public offer. This may be appreciated by many, but may well fail to attract potentially large numbers of visitors from a wider spectrum".
The rambling layout of the site — charming to some, infuriating to others — "is not easy for the average visitor to understand. There is a complicated array of gardens, glasshouses, galleries, shops and catering facilities that do not form a pattern that is readily apparent".
The main entrance at Victoria Gate "is recognised to be poor; it does not give the sense of scale, quality and excitement that is required".
All of this could be dismissed as part of the amateurish appeal of Kew — after all, many people love the Gardens precisely because they never seem crowded. But there are worrying implications. The shortage of funds means Kew's unrivalled architectural heritage is in danger of falling into disrepair.
Of the more than 40 listed buildings on the Kew site in total, some — the Temperate House, the Palm House and the Pagoda, for example — are world-renowned. But an £80 million backlog of repair and maintenance means that Professor Hopper has some tough decisions to make. The glass and wood Temperate House has not had a major refurbishment for almost 30 years and will start to fail health and safety standards within a year or two. Slightly further down the track, the Palm House will also need a substantial and costly overhaul.
The money for these two structures has to be found, and will be, according to Professor Hopper, not least because of Kew's listed status as a World Heritage Site. "We have been aware of the issue, we have been planning for the need to raise resources to deal with it. It is all part of the normal cycle of caring for Kew."
But with Government money in such short supply the top brass are having to look at more imaginative funding routes than have been tried in the past. Financing for the Temperate House, for example, is likely to include some level of public sponsorship along the lines of "adopt a pane", and Heritage Lottery money will also have to be tapped.
For other less photogenic structures there is likely to be a bleaker future with so little money for maintaining so-called "low-priority buildings" that some will have to be mothballed indefinitely.
Professor Hopper, only the 14th director in the Royal Botanic Gardens' history since it was founded by Princess Augusta of Saxe-Gotha (mother of King George III), was brought in in October 2006 to prepare for Kew's 250th anniversary celebrations last year. Formerly the chief executive of the Botanic Gardens and Parks Authority in Perth, he came with a reputation as a passionate botanist who was also prepared to bruise a few egos to get things done in his other role as an administrator.
Professor Hopper freely admits that his job is to inject a bit more "vibrancy and pizzaz" into Kew. There will be more festivals and exhibitions and the much-criticised catering is being overhauled by restaurateur Oliver Peyton of Atlantic Bar and Grill, who promises to usher in the likes of "fillet of halibut en papillotte with fennel, black pepper and borage flowers".
There will also be a major rejig of the Gardens' layout and 22 miles of path, the first landscaping of its kind since 1840, to answer the report's criticism about inaccessibility as well as a drive to broaden the social mix of visitors.
The proposed changes will probably not delight Kew's many traditionalist regulars, some of whom already feel that it has become too "family friendly" for their liking with showy attractions such as the Treetop Walkway. Few London institutions inspire such affection as Kew Gardens, where even on a busy summer day it is possible to find an oasis of semi-bucolic tranquillity (Heathrow flight paths allowing).
As one of its horticultural volunteers, Felicity Lloyd, put it: "I'm enraged at the bleating about the entry price. If you roll up two hours before closing, it's expensive; if two adults and two children go for the whole day and take a picnic lunch, it costs £26. I have just bought two theatre tickets for £70 which necessitates me walking up the equivalent of Kilimanjaro and sitting with my neck pressed against the ceiling for three hours. Which would you say is the better value?"
That may well be true, but unless Kew can successfully reinvent itself for the 21st century it risks a future of managed decline as sources of funding dry up in an harsh financial climate. Despite the warmer weather, it will have to work hard to get back the spring in its step.Reuse content

Hi Nobby, can you tell us a bit about North Country Theatre and what your role there entail?
North Country Theatre is a small scale touring company based in the beautiful dales market town of Richmond. As the name suggests we perform mostly in the rural North though our tours have taken us as far afield as deepest Shropshire and remote West Highlands.
Until recently the company was a regularly funded organisation (RFO) of Arts Council England – but we were one of several companies with a rural remit that missed out on national portfolio status in the recent cuts. We take professional theatre to village halls, arts centres and small theatres, even churches and occasionally open air venues.
I'm the artistic director, but that rather grand title disguises the fact that I am the only full-time employee. Everyone else is on part-time, seasonal or freelance contracts. I direct, but I also write many of the plays and stage adaptations that we tour. I manage the finances with the aid of a part-time administrator, write marketing copy, drive the van on tour sometimes, occasionally I take a small acting role, I stuff envelopes. Like most people in a small business I do whatever needs doing.
What makes rural theatre so different to more mainstream theatre? What makes it so special?
There's the sheer physical effort involved in one night stand touring where you build the stage, set and the lighting rig every night before performing and then take it all down again and move on. There's often the most basic dressing room facilities (sometimes none) and if you need a wee at the interval you'll usually have stand in the queue with the audience. The front row is within touching distance, the acoustics are different every night, but it's brilliant!
The places are packed, the audience is welcoming and the atmosphere before you start is electric with anticipation. The response is direct, the appreciation genuine.
The key idea for me is that rural touring reverses the usual status relationship of the theatre. In a main house the audience are the guests and the company the hosts, but in a village hall it's the other way around – you are in their place. They are comfortable and familiar; half the audience know each other and are chatting. You sometimes have to make them shut up and sit down so you can get started! It's a shared experience.
You're in the same room as the audience, not behind the foot lights or the fourth wall. If you can transport their imaginations in those circumstances, there's no better feeling for an actor.
Can you tell us more about the Arts Council's decision to withdraw North Country's regular funding?
I wish I could. It left us baffled and dismayed. We had an extraordinary track record of innovative and entertaining theatre, a fantastic following, playing to near capacity audiences, a good programme of ancillary educational and community work – and we were serving areas where access to the arts is limited by geography and transport.
We even originated a West End and Broadway hit that must have earned the exchequer a hundred times over what they gave us in grant aid. There was a strange kind of solace in seeing that several other rural touring companies had been cut as well. It sort of looked like there was a policy rather us having been singled out.
How have you risen from those ashes, so to speak?
I guess what we have done could be described in business terms as monetising the goodwill that the company had built up over the years. Our audience, from Shropshire to Scotland and especially in our heartland of North Yorkshire, did not want the company to disappear and they showed it by donating, pledging and sponsoring. We've had everything from four-figure private donations to a £5 note in an envelope with a letter about how important the donor felt we were to the cultural life of the community.
We already had an active Friends of North Country group, who had regularly bought us new kit or sponsored an actor or musician. They had even raised the money to buy the specially adapted van we tour in. As soon as we found out we were loosing our regular funding, our volunteer board went into action.
We set up a scheme called 'Be an Angel of the North (Country)' which encouraged people to put a three-year pledge or standing order in place to support our work. We now have over 350 'angels' and have switched from being core funded by the state with extras to being core funded by a crowd of supporters with occasional additional project funding from ACE.
Do you welcome Maria Miller's comment recently that regional theatres will receive £90m of investment during this parliament?
I think it's not unreasonable to be sceptical about whether any of that will actually trickle through to the rural areas. There seems to me to be a deep seated metropolitan view that what is needed is "rural outreach" by urban based companies, not work created in, inspired by and performed in rural areas by artists actually living in the country. I expect to see most of that funding poured into already supported urban organisations.
I'll be glad if "regional theatres" are saved; I'm regular theatre goer, but I am not holding my breath for support coming to unglamorous little backwaters like Thornton-le-Beans village hall. Just the increase that some of our larger institutions received in the recent funding round would have kept North Country going for years.
What is it that makes for a successful touring production?
If the play and the performance are good you have a chance. All the other stuff goes without saying: if the play is bad no amount of planning and logistics can make a tour successful. In rural areas, respect for the audience is the key. Don't be patronising – have respect for the people who are making it possible for you to perform.
And finally, what can we expect next from North Country Theatre?
We have a 46-date tour of our own adaptation of Conan Doyle's The Lost World opening at the Georgian Theatre Royal in October (catch it at a village hall for the full effect) – we are also creating an open air community play to be performed next summer, working with Peer Gynnt Theatre from our Norwegian twin town. We're also refreshing our website to allow village halls to sell online through our set up, It's all go!
We have never really had long term plans for the company. We just wanted to keep making good theatre. The three-year funding cycle dictates how we budget. I'm really not sure personally whether I want go back to applying for NPO status, or even longer term project funding, but that will be up to the board not me.
If we can persuade enough of our 'angels' to stick with us and bring in a few new ones, we may have found a new way forward.

Milton Keynes
- Great location. Direct access to the beach. One of the best on site shops that we have been to.
Nice pools.
No basin in the toilet compartment, to wash your hands after using the toilet we had to go to the bathroom which was the opposite end of the caravan.
We stayed an extra night in the caravan at a cost, higher than the original 3 night stay.
Overall though, we would go to the same site again, but would select different accommodation.

T. Boone Pickens Out for Water, Not Wind
August 2nd, 2008 by Courtney Carlisle Bolton
Texas billionaire, T. Boone Pickens, is causing quite a stir across the nation with his bold Picken's Plan to build the largest wind farm in the nation. In fact, he has caused such a commotion, that everyone seems to be forgetting about Mesa Water.
Pickens' company, Mesa Water, bought more than 200,000 acres of ground water rights in Roberts County, Texas. Estimating that he could make more than $1 billion off of the $75 million investment over the next few decades, Pickens wants to drain the Ogallala Aquifer to meet the demand for water in west Texas.
This video from Zaproot, The Truth About the Pickens Plan, is very entertaining and does a great job of explaining the slight of hand trick that Pickens seems to be playing with wind, water and the dreaded emminent domain.
Happy viewing!

Soaking in Xi'an & familiar faces in Shanghai
... of an enormous and diverse country. But our time here has been epic. Visiting big cities and a couple of villages has been enough to give an insight into Chinese life and certainly given us a desire to come back to explore more. China is changing at a fast pace though and we may well find a different kind of China next time...but as long as there's free alcohol, there's a good enough reason to come back...

touch. They were telling us about the Scottish ex-pat club in Shanghai,
who run a really good Burn's night celebration.
We then went
onto Mr and Mrs, where the manager recognised us, and had a lovely meal
as usual. I had Caesar salad and crispy duck and mashed ...
A few weird things about China
1) Ordering food and having no idea what it is.
2) Then it arrives and you still have no idea what it is.
3) Then you eat it and you're still not sure.
4) Crossing the roads is usually an adventure. Cars use the horn as a legitimate replacement for the brakes.
5) Electric bikes are the ultimate death machine. They're like Velociraptors: they're silent, they hunt in packs, they'll kill you if you catch you and ...
Up since 3am, but how could I sleep...I'm in SHA!
I made to Shanghai! This is completely different than what I expected. It is so dark, foggy, and polluted here. I thought the streets would be flooded with people. Anyway, orientation starts today. I have to take the Chinese placement test. I hope I do well. Besides that, I'm excited to explore the city and get some more of those pork and broccoli dumplings. Mmmm. That's all for now.

I'd fallen asleep on the couch. I hadn't meant to but I had and now I was being woken up. I groaned and tried to roll away but I just rolled off the couch. The person who had been trying to wake me squeaked and rushed round from behind the sofa to help me up. "Are you okay?" Kenna asked concerned.
"Yeah, I'm fine" I said as I got myself back to sitting on the couch. "Is there something you needed?"
"Um no I came to apologise for being rude to you"
"Rude? I don't see how" I chuckled.
I saw Kenna flush and was a little please with myself. I was also glad she had come to talk to me for a little while I felt like I'd screwed everything up. I grabbed Kenna's hand and pulled her down onto the couch. She flushed at the contact but I ignored that. I had to sort all these feelings out. I had to tell her about Kate."You had every right to be angry with me. I did wander of with Kate after all leaving you alone and I must confess we kissed" I felt a cold settle through the room as I told her and Kenna seemed to look hurt but she hid it quiet well. She moved to speak but I put a finger over her lips and shook my head. "No, I'm not done. I regret kissing Kate. I regret it cause I like someone else and all I feel for Kate is physical attraction. Usually I'm not the kind of guy to give in to it. I'm the sort of guy who wants more" I push a hand back through my hair.
"What are you trying to say?" Kenna asked with a shake to her voice. I took her hands in mine and allowed my fingers to trace patterns.
"It's you Kenna. I like you" I whisper pushing a out of place strand of hair behind her ear once again. "Will.... Will you let my apologise and allow me to take you out on a date?"

I am married to a wonderful woman and we satisfy each other very much. However, we are looking for female playmates. We wouldn't mind each having our own, but preferably we'd like one to share. Ideally, we'd like to find one we can connect with so well, that she can be like a wife to us both.
My eyes. Deep, blue, penetrating, yet soft and understanding with a constant twinkle of humor revealing my true nature, even when I try to obfuscate it with an occasional veil of sadness or anger.
The second thing people tend to notice about me is my extensive lexicon. I enjoy writing and a good author should always have a proficient grasp of their native language.
When I'm first met or in large groups, I tend to be quiet, shy, and observatory. On further meetings though or in smaller, intimate settings, I really come out of my shell and can be the life of the party.
I'll admit I'm a gaming geek and I love reading gaming books. Not the novels mind you, but the actual rules books and setting material themselves. I also enjoy magic books, and I'm not talking Harry Potter. No, I like instructional manuals for the art of prestidigitation and have even written a few. My favorite are the more philosophical ones dealing with theory and methods in the art of mentalism. I'm also a fan of the "For Dummies" and "Idiot's Guide" books. I suppose I don't read too much fiction really but I have my fair share of novels to keep me entertained. I also have story ideas for a series of fantasy novels I'd like to write someday.

The prosecutor in an intoxicated driving case for Rep. Jeff Wood (I-Chippewa Falls) said Wednesday she was still not considering reducing the charges against him.
"At this time I don't plan on amending the charges," said Marathon County assistant district attorney Kala Strawn, who had a pretrial conference with Wood's attorney on Monday.
Wood told lawmakers earlier this month he expected charges to be reduced to inattentive driving in the case because a blood test showed he was within normal therapeutic ranges for anti-depressant and anti-anxiety drugs. Wood gave that testimony as he fought an effort to remove him from the Legislature for three charges of driving under the influence last year.
But a blood test showed Wood had more than eight times the therapeutic level of an active ingredient in cough syrup when he was arrested for driving under the influence in September, the Wisconsin State Journal has reported.
Strawn said she expected to have another conference with Wood's attorney on April 26 - after the Legislature ends its regular business.

We continue our drive on to Bursa, a city of 2 million people. Here we visit the Great Mosque, which is known for its 20 domes. The mosque can hold 9000 worshippers and has been renovated 15 times. Conveniently, it is located next to the Grand Bazaar of Bursa and the Silk Market. We have learned to take advantage of each and every shopping opportunity.

We remembered four days ago looking out the taxi window on the two hour snails pace drive to our hotel and seeing dandelions, disorganization, danger, rubble, rundown dilapidated buildings, and movie hoodlums on every second face.

Interestingly enough because the building was not originally designed as a mosque the mihrab at the front of the prayer area is slightly off center and looks a bit out of place because it needs to face directly towards Mecca.

New Eyelike 22MP digital camera back from Jenoptik
Fast, high resolution, lightweight and elegant are the key words describing the new Eyelike eMotion²². JENOPTIK presents its latest digital camera back for medium-format and high-end view camera. Fully designed for untethered use, it sets new standards. Low power consumption, a lightweight, yet stable design together with a completely revised housing and board design guarantee images of outstanding quality. They also allow photographers to fully concentrate on their work when taking pictures. The Eyelike eMotion²² has been specifically designed for portable use. It features a built-in 2.2 inch display, a lithium-ion battery which is rated for up to 2.5 operating hours, and an internal memory with a maximum storage capacity of 140 images.
The camera back is immediately ready for use without requiring any additional memory cards. For extended memory space, the Eyelike eMotion²² provides an option to save data on type I and II Compact Flash cards. Storage capacity can thus be increased up to 520 images, without having to rely on a heavy, mechanically susceptible harddrive. The display and all other components have been selected with special focus on low power consumption for superior battery lifetime performance. A secondary benefit of this design package is that camera heating effects are reduced to a minimum level, which allows for noise-free images of highest quality.
Perfect for Fashion and Portrait
Eyelike eMotion²² design efforts primarily focused on achieving image sequences at a constantly high rate. A system has thus been created, which is capable of shooting up to 50 high-resolution pictures per minute. As opposed to other systems where capture rates are changing after a few shots, this performance remains consistently stable. This makes work easier for the photographer and the model, because they can adjust to a regular rhythm and concentrate more on the perfection of scenic setups. In addition to continiously shooting rate, the Eyelike eMotion²² also features an extremely fast capture rate. With approximately one image per second, the Eyelike eMotion²² ranks among the fastest digital camera backs in the market, thus guaranteeing to be ready for shooting in the right moment.
Ideal for "On Location" and in Studios
As the Eyelike precision line before it, the Eyelike eMotion²² is equipped with a live video function. Consequently, no sliding adapter is required to select and exactly focus a desired image frame on a view camera. In addition to this feature, the Eyelike eMotion²² will also include a remote control option for Schneider shutter systems and Rollei LensControl via Eyelike capture pro software, thus making a perfect tool for photographers who work with view cameras and in studio environments.
For operation in studios, the Eyelike eMotion²² can be directly connected to a computer via Firewire cable. In this operating mode, which is automatically detected by the camera software if the Firewire cable is plugged, the camera will directly store all image data on the harddrive in the same way as already known from the Eyelike precision family.
On Location, the 2.2-inch display allows you to directly control your images. You are able to view a given image frame or check for proper focusing in 1:1 view. Apart from that, the photographer also may navigate through the various images, delete images, superimpose a histogram for easier assessment of the exposure setting or turn on an exposure control function. To influence the quality of images, the current sensitivity and a white balance setting can be adjusted as necessary.
Digital Camera Backs for all purposes
The Eyelike eMotion²² extends the existing range of Eyelike camera backs for untethered use. JENOPTIK Laser, Optik, Systeme GmbH is thus providing a system designed to cover all areas of professional digital photography. Designed as a 1-shot camera, the Eyelike eMotion²² makes a perfect tool for any photographer who is not restricted to studio work alone and cannot afford to renounce the convenience of medium-format quality in on-location jobs. The Eyelike precision product line includes microscan technology, an ideal feature for operation in studio environments where finest structures and smallest details have to be photographed.
Both the Eyelike precision and the Eyelike eMotion²² come with the sophisticated identical Eyelike capture pro or Eyelike capture basic software. Each of the two software versions is available for OS X Apple operating systems.
An additional Windows XP version of the Eyelike™ capture basic software is available for Eyelike eMotion²².

|Canon lide110 color image scanner (discontinued by manufacturer)
The Canon CanoScan LiDE110 Color Image Scanner is aimed at people who want to scan photographic prints without paying extra for a film scanning feature they don't need.
Pros: Cheap, Fast, High Quality Cons: None so far Other Thoughts: Im no expert on scanners but I draw and ink my work and use this scanner. For me I'm very impressed! Picks up every bit of detail and comes out real clear!! I've scanned over 50...
Pros: I've read reviews stating that the scanner is slow but my guess is that the individual should take a look at the PC they are running. I purchased this scanner for my mother a year ago for it's simplicity. My more expensive "high quality"...

X FACTOR wannabe Jake Quickenden suffered a second heartache after his dad
died of cancer – his brother was diagnosed with the disease too.
Jake told TV Biz this week he was inspired to take up the guitar by his tragic
father Paul, who lost his battle with cancer, aged 52, in 2008.
But two years later the singer was dealt another blow when younger brother
Oliver was diagnosed with a rare type of bone cancer.
Oliver, then 16, learned he had a form of osteosarcoma, a condition which
makes his bones vulnerable to snapping.
He was prescribed a ten-week course of chemotherapy and a major operation to
remove a diseased bone in his right knee. This was then followed by a
20-week stretch of chemo.
Oliver, now 18, and married, has been fighting the disease ever since.
He said: "I'm still quite scared. But I just have to deal with it if I'm going
to get better. When I was first diagnosed I didn't want everybody to be
upset so I took it on the chin."
Jake tweeted: "My little brother is the strongest and biggest hero I know.
So much respect for him."
On Oliver's birthday, Jack tweeted: "Happy birthday to my little brother who
is an inspiration to everyone he meets. Love always bro and keep fighting."
After his X Factor audition, he tweeted: "Love you little brother, my hero."
Lifeguard Jake, from Scunthorpe, wowed the judges on Saturday by singing Kings
Of Leon hit Use Somebody – after choosing not to perform a track he has
written about his dad's death.
He was too frightened to sing the emotional ballad at audition in case he
broke down and cried in front of the judges.
He also feared fans might have seen the move as a cynical bid to win the
sympathy vote – something he is determined not to do on the show.
Jake said of his late dad: "I've written one song about him. It was one of my
choices for the first audition but I went for the other song instead.
"I never wanted to go in with the whole sob story thing because I want to be
recognised for my music."
An X Factor spokesman said: "Oliver and Jake are best friends and, of course,
Jake's family is his first priority. But he wants his voice to do the
talking on this show."
