Logistics property leader
Since December 2010 the group's development work-in-progress has doubled to $2 billion. In the "near future" the group expects to start $2.5 billion worth of work each year.
Last Thursday the group raised $400 million in new equity to help fund the swelling pipeline, including a move into Brazil.
Chief executive, Greg Goodman said that although global development activity had fallen, Goodman's share had risen "dramatically."
"We have a very large advantage which is making us more competitive," chief executive Greg Goodman told The Australian Financial Review.
"The barriers to entry have risen dramatically because of the lack of development capital. Because we have partners we have strong funding lines."
In the September quarter Goodman gained more than $1.5 billion of capital backing. The figure includes a $US890 million US venture with the Canada Pension Plan Investment Board and a $US1 billion Japanese partnership with Abu Dhabi Investment Council.
Mr Goodman said the current raising for the Goodman Australia Industrial Fund, the nation's largest wholesale industrial fund, would bring in a further $600 million.
It underpins Goodman's global customer model. "They [the customers] know you can deliver," Mr Goodman said. "It is reliable, well financed and attracting repeat business."
In China, Goodman is planning to double its development work this year to about 800,000 square metres of space, worth about $400 million.
Only the Singapore-listed Global Logistics Properties is building more.
Mr Goodman said China was going "incredibly well", with no impact from the slowdown.
"Economic growth in China is slowing to 7 to 7.5 per cent but you still have a growing level of wealth in the middle class, a fast-growing automotive industry and an undersupply of logistics space," Mr Goodman said.
Even in slower economies, Goodman is expanding the footprint.
"We did half the large developments in Germany; perhaps 30 per cent of all the [large] developments in Europe and we are on track for 50 per cent of the market in Australia," he said. "It is a very good time for development."
The European growth is driven by demand from e-commerce operations like Amazon, from industries exporting to China and from those seeking more efficient supply chains.
Mr Goodman told analysts that Australia was "in a good place at the moment", with occupancy at 97 per cent and new leases providing 3.25 per cent annual rental growth.
Analyst CLSA noted that, following the moves into the US and Brazil, Goodman had a presence in 11 of the world's top 23 trading nations.
Of course, development needs capital, either debt or equity.
Mr Goodman is determined to keep debt under control. At the moment gearing is 25 per cent, or 35 per cent on a look-through basis.
"A big development pipeline needs equity funding," he said.
Commonwealth Bank analyst David Lloyd wrote that Goodman's ambitions were being funded in a prudent manner which should lead to sustainable growth.
JP Morgan analyst Richard Jones estimated Goodman would need about $400 million a year to fund its share of the $2.5 billion in annual development starts.
Mr Goodman said further capital raisings would not be necessary to fund the target. Undistributed earnings and the reinstatement of the distribution reinvestment plan would provide new capital.
While development needs lots of capital, it also drives earnings.
In 2012 development contributed 24 per cent to earnings and management a further 14 per cent.
Together they helped drive an 8 per cent rise in earnings per security.
Goodman expects earnings per share to rise 6 per cent this financial year and confirmed the forecast at the $400 million raising last week.
Effectively that is an upgrade. Otherwise the new units would dilute earnings per security.
CBA's Mr Lloyd forecast that the stock would rerate upwards as investors came to expect 6 per cent growth in earnings per security.
Mr Goodman said the 6 per cent growth target was "very do-able".

Joaquin Phoenix
From Uncyclopedia, the content-free encyclopedia
"In the world of thermometers, he would be Dutch."
"Even if he can't spell cinnamon correctly, I'd still do him."
Joaquin Lesser-Brother Phoenix (pronounced: /hwɑːˈkiːn ˈfiːnɪks/; born October 28, 1974), formerly credited as Leaves in the Fall Phoenix, is an alleged American film actor, lip-synching karoke man (but he calls himself a musician, the bastard) and occasional gift wrapper for hire. He was born in San Juan, Puerto Rico, where he lived for the first 4 years of his childhood. His family then snuck into the continental United States, where he was raised. Among the many places in which he lived, because of his family's frequent moving, were Somalia, Shang-Ri-La and Never-Never-Never LAND. Phoenix is from a family of performers which includes his older brother, the late Polluted River Phoenix. Joaquin's biggest credit is riding high the coattails of his deceased, actually-talented older brother who also happened to be good-looking and not facially deformed in any way.
Phoenix has ventured behind the camera (where he belongs with a face and harelip like that), directing traffic as well as producing kiddie porn movies and cable-access television shows, and has recorded an album, the soundtrack to Trying to Walking a Straight Line. He is also known for his work as a social activist, particularly as an advocate for left-handed rights. On October 27, 2008, he announced his retirement from film in order to focus on his gift-wrapping career.
Joaquin Phoenix is an elitist manatee who is most famous for his role in To Fin For costarring Casey Affleck, brother to Ben Affleck. Joaquin and Casey met during the Christmas of Celine, 47 years ago while filming the movie in Norway under hazardous conditions created by the Great Manatee Depression of 42BC. Since then they have starred in 92 films together including Walk The Plank and Oceans Threehundred-eightyfive. They are an unstoppable acting force and are projected by CNN to take over the world in 2017 when they will turn all of Mexico into a museum and theme park.
edit Biography
Hatched on the third moon of Pluto to Orville Redenbocker and Mary Kate Olsen, the family hover craft was full of eels thus Joaquin was tossed out as a youngster. Soon after he changed his name to Pepito to be more like his sisters Fall and Juan "angry eyebrow" Valdez. After a brief stint in a high wire tuba band at a cruelty free circus, Joaquin went into seclusion. Living in a coat hanger factory in Puerto Rico, spending his time as a free thinker, Phoenix invented both Keanu Reeves and subsequently maple syrup. With the patent still pending on his creations, Joaquin headed back to Hollywood, uncovering the myths of Atlantis before getting a role in Murder She Wrote as Billy Donovan, Angela Lansbury's house keeper and live in lover. Viewers were appalled by the show and its use of hand-puppets controlled by body parts other than hands. It was soon canceled. Luckily Joaquin was immediately cast in Manatee Soldiers in which he played a U.S. solider on shore leave at Sea World. To date Joaquin has starred in 1,383 films, including Walk The Plank - a silent film about Davey Jones, member of The Monkees, in which he played a knit green cap. Currently he is filming Reservation Pond and working on his masters degree in marine biology.
edit Charity
In 2004 Phoenix opened a home in California for vagrant talking rats. His work in charities including PETW (people for the ethical treatment of wookies) and the SFLG (society for liberating groundhogs) is widely known and respected. Recently he created the foundation Joaqs of Love, which donates Joaquin's eyebrow hair to balding men, Dave Matthews was the charities first recipient. Phoenix's hair is also home to many endangered frog species and is registered as a national wild life reserve.
edit Romantic life
For the first 49 years of his life Phoenix was devoutly celibate. That was until he met Steve The Inflatable Pirate. Together they spent many romantic afternoons avoiding sharp objects. Unfortunately for Steve, Joaquin's heart was easily swayed when on a boating trip along the coast of Hawaii he met naked Dominic Monaghan, star of Lost. The two hit it off instantly, falling in love over laminated pictures and cough drop wrapper origami. Despite Monaghan's strong bean scent, Phoenix adored him. After canceling Christmas and building a tower of love out of a bag of skittles, they knew it was meant to be. Phoenix was willing to do anything to keep Monaghan and publicly battled his only competition for Monaghan's heart - arch nemesis Rachael Ray. The two duked it out in a to the death battle. The contest came down to who could fit the most vegan pineapple pizza's in the back of a 2006 Prius within 30 minutes and Joaquin won. Dominic and Joaquin have been happily together ever since despite the domestic abuse and public affairs with William Shatner and Alan Thicke. They are expecting their first garden gnome in 2008.

HOF released a music video for the smooth intro to his LP, Magick. Edited by King Lion, the visuals of Midnight Train give an overall feel of the past correlating with the lyrics to the track. When asked what his inspiration was, HOF replied:
I actually wrote that record a year ago heavily inspired by a situation I had with a shorty, and I ended up changing alot of the lyrics cause it went sour. It kinda shows why lyrically, it gets negative but the chorus is much more positive.
Check it out above.

Moeller's blindside hit on Marshall quarterback Brian Anderson in the third quarter of Ohio State's 45-7 victory Thursday night was not only a hard collision, but it was a symbolic way for Moeller to show that he is 100 percent back from a head injury that cost him the entire 2009 season.
He had been away, but he certainly did not forget how to hit.
"It felt great," Moeller said of his return to the field. "It's one of the greatest feelings."
Moeller forced a fumble when raced around the right end and drilled Anderson in the back. The play was ruled a 6-yard sack for Moeller and was one of the night's best moments for Ohio State. Moeller finished with team highs in tackles (seven) and tackles for loss (2.0).
"You take a guy like that away from football for a year, especially in the situation that happened off the field. You could tell he was excited to play," senior defensive tackle Dexter Larimore said. "Obviously it showed."
Several of Moeller's teammates were beaming after the game when talking about his return to the Ohio Stadium playing field. Moeller had not suited up for the Buckeyes since the 2009 Fiesta Bowl against Texas. He missed all of last season after suffering a head injury when he was attacked by a man in an off-field incident in Florida.
"He was actually one of my roommates last year, and it was tough for him to sit on the sidelines," Larimore said. "He's one of those guys that is always in the weight room, always doing something. Then for a year he really couldn't lift or do activities because of (his head injury).
"But the day he was released he was back in the weight room getting after it. Everything he could do, he was pushing, pushing, pushing. Obviously you saw him out today really getting after it."
Added sophomore defensive lineman John Simon: "We're close friends, and just seeing him lay some wood on people it just gets your juices pumping. … He's a little fireball, and he brings a lot to our defense."
Moeller saw plenty of playing time against the spread offense of the Thundering Herd. As Ohio State's "star," the fifth defensive back in nickel situations, Moeller was called upon to make several plays and did not disappoint.
"I made an emphasis this week of … trying to get the toughness back a little bit," Moeller said. "It really paid off."
Moeller admitted that life finally feels back to normal.
"It does. It really does," he said. "It's like I said through camp, 'I felt good. I was getting back.' But today was really the day I really felt back to myself again."
That is a great sign for Buckeye fans – and a bad one for Ohio State's 2010 opponents. Senior defensive lineman Cameron Heyward called Moeller a game-changer.
"Tyler just brings another dimension to the game," Heyward said. "He hustles so much and he's so fast off the ball. It's great to have him back on the defense."

Dave Parris retires as Humboldt County Coroner
EUREKA- The Humboldt County Coroner celebrated his last day on the job on Friday. The Coroner's Office. will now be under the umbrella of the Humboldt County Sheriff's Office. It's a move the Sheriff says will lead to increased efficiency.
"We're adding depth to the office. We're able to bring more staff to bear at one time for reporting purposes, for issues that we have here to deal with at the office. I don't want to minimize the excellent job that the current Coroner Dave Parris has done, and he has truly served the county very well in that position," said Sheriff Michael Downey with the Humboldt County Sheriff's Office.
Dave Parris has been the Humboldt County Coroner for the last six years. Before that, he served as a detective with the Eureka Police Department for 27 years and the Chief of the Yurok Tribal Police for two years. Parris says he looks forward to spending more time with his family and he will miss the people he worked with.
"Trying to manage a small team like that and also keep up the camaraderie and morale is not easy. But these people here are really gifted at being able to sell themselves towards the fact that they're really here to help people so that's been one of my biggest advantages here is the employees that we have working here and so I'm going to miss them," said Parris.

United paid Bristol City £225,000 for Miller last summer, but he has been in and out of the starting line-up.
No fee was involved for the 23-year-old, who started his career with Falkirk and won a £300,000 move to City in England's League One.
Miller fell out of favour with Bristol but impressed when loaned to Hearts in January 2005, scoring 11 goals in 23 games before moving to Tannadice.
He has failed to score in four games this season and was suspended for Saturday's 3-1 defeat of St Mirren after being sent off against Kilmarnock.
Dons boss Jimmy Calderwood has long been an admirer of the player and had attempted to sign him previously.
BBC Sport understands that United had originally hoped to take striker Steve Lovell from the Dons in a swap deal.
United then turned their attention to Darren Mackie, but the striker did not wish to move clubs.

The inspiration behind Tait Wines was Giovanni Tait (1927-1997). Giovanni Tait migrated to Australia from Italy in 1957 to take up work as a cooper in the Barossa. His high skill and craftsmanship in his chosen trade led him to B Seppelts and Sons where he took an active role in the production and maturation of wine in oak casks. He learnt cooperage from his father and grandfather before migrating to Australia.
It was not until his sons grew older that his dream came to reality. With his sons, he founded a small winery called Tait Wines. His vision for Tait Wines was to be a traditional winery using all the old winemaking methods to produce hand crafted wines that were powerful in depth, flavour and taste. Each year, the family acknowledges their fathers vision by dedicating the estate grown Cabernet Sauvignon in his honor. This wine reflects all of Giovanni's qualities of age, depth of character and full of life.
Now Bruno with wife Michelle and brother Michael continue to produce premium boutique wines.
I can't think of too many properties that have made such huge strides in quality as Sottimano has. Recent bottles of the 2001 and 2004 Barbaresco Pajore revealed an enormous leap in elegance and finesse. Fortunately, Sottimano's entry-level wines are every bit as delicious as their Barbarescos, so readers won't need to mortgage the house to drink great wines from this producer. I know I am starting to sound like a broken record, but these are truly exceptional wines at this level, or any level for that matter."-Wine Advocate
This blend impresses you right from the start. Aromas of red cherries and raspberries are infused with mocha and spice hints that give up the secret for what's about to come. Your first sip washes broadly across your palate like a flood of sweet, fresh fruit and the viscous mouthfeel keeps the flavors lingering for a while. The hints of baking spice and some oak keep the fruit flavors fresh and lively. This is a wine that you'll want to stack up in your wine rack (or closet) for any occasion.
Great all by itself or with all your favorite red wine foods like burgers, ribs, lamb chops, and even pizza.
The Toasted Head 2005 Chardonnay has spiced, ripe pear and nectarine aromas, with a touch of mango, tropical fruit and vanilla. On the
palate, fresh nectarine, citrus and tropical fruit flavors are complemented
by toasty butterscotch oak. The wine has a rich and creamy texture, with
ample acidity and a long, soft finish.
Where the heck is Yolo County?
Yolo County may not be a major destination for wine lovers, but that's okay by us. Our neighbor to the west, Napa County, gets all the tourists, while Sacramento County, to the east, gets all the politicians (and hot air!). We're in between, in one of California's original 27 counties, which has stayed a rural oasis that is now home to a large community of artists and craftspeople, as well as California's greatest concentration of organic farmers. The name Yolo is from the native Poewin Indian word "yo-loy," meaning "abounding in the rushes," but some locals insist it's an acronym for "You Only Live Once."
Our estate vineyards in Yolo's Dunnigan Hills, a designated American Viticultural Area (AVA) on the eastern side of California's Coast Range Mountains, are perched on rolling hillsides with well-drained gravelly loam soils. It gets warm in the Dunnigan Hills in summer, but cooling breezes from the Sacramento Delta and San Francisco Bay reduce evening temperatures to between 55° and 65° F. This enables our grapes to cool down quickly at night, preserving their fresh flavors and crisp natural acidity.
For over 30 years, the farms around here have supplied northern California's finest restaurants and farmer's markets with a cornucopia of delicious, organically grown fruits, vegetables and nuts. At Toasted Head, we're proud to have added fine wine to the menu.
The fifteenth century was golden era for the Alsace wines and it was during this period that the winegrowers guild of Alsace was founded. Each year, the most deserving vinegrower was elected by the guild of the winegrowers as Bangard, a highly respected positions. It was held by 8 generations of Albrecht's, between 1520 and 1698.
Domaine Albrecht experienced a major development under the guidance of Lucien Albrecht, the father of Jean, to become one of the most important in Alsace with holdings in 9 villages surounding Orschwihr. Lucien Albrecht, extended the winery with new cellars and expanded the sales of his wines in bottles. In 1972, Lucien Albrecht was also a pioneer of Cremand d'Alsace. Today the Cremant is one of their specialities and a major part of the business.
150 years were needed to make up the Domaine Albrecht located in the very best Alsace terroirs. Jean Albrecht is now the ninth generation settled in Orschwihr, leading the Domaine.
Blend: 50% Loureiro, 40% Trajadura, 10% Pedernã
The fruit for Francis Coppola Sofia Blanc de Blancs is grown in the cool vineyards of the Arroyo Seco in northern Monterey County. Known for its Burgundian-like climate, Monterey offers ideal conditions for Pinot Blanc, which include a long growing season and soils that accentuate the alluring floral characteristics inherent in this varietal.
Sofia Blanc de Blancs exudes fresh aromas of peaches, apricots, and tropical fruit, as well as a light perfume of lemon cream. Like Italy's best Prosecco, this wine is vibrant and crisp, displaying bright flavors on the palate and seductive notes of honeysuckle on the finish.
Francis puts it best, saying the winery is meant to be "a wine wonderland, a park of pleasure where people of all ages can enjoy all the best things in life – food, wine, music, dancing, games, swimming and performances of all types. A place to celebrate the love of life."
"Deep red. Smoky black raspberry and cherry aromas are complemented by zesty white pepper and minerals; showing its grenache side today. Silky and sweet, with deep red berry preserve flavors, fully absorbed tannins and good bite. Leaves an exotic candied licorice note behind on the vibrant, juicy finish, which strongly repeats the red berry tone."-International Wine Cellar
Winemaking patriarch Colin Glaetzer established his own label to create wines he's passionate about - limited quantities of benchmark Barossa Valley reds. The birth of Glaetzer Wines signalled a new era for Colin's family which boasts more than its fair share of winemakers. The clan includes Colin, his oenology-trained wife Judith, twin brother/winemaker John, and five winemakers among the couple's three sons and their wives.
With the 2004 vintage, Ben Glaetzer took over winemaking at Glaetzer and brought his own flagship wines, Amon Ra and Godolphin, into the fold. Young Glaetzer has implemented many changes at the winery, particularly with regard to harvesting upon physiological ripeness vs. analysis, longer skin contact and the use of the highest possible quality oak barrels.
The geology of the Hanlin Hill Vineyard is Mintaro shale, deposited as shallow marine sediments between 550 and 600 million years ago, and metamorphosed into high quality grey slate, which has weathered to form well draining, brown to red-brown clay rich soils.

Pedro Martinez is back, but the truth is he's had two decent starts since his return and he's coming off a lousy outing against the Yankees.
Martinez said he's fine physically, but is mechanically off and might be tipping his pitches.
Truth is, the Mets let Martinez go at his own pace both in spring training and in his rehab. Mostly simulated games. Did he really get the work he needed? He says so, but what else do you expect him to say?
Martinez might be scintillating on any given night, but when that happens it is more a surprise.
Check out the new poll on Pedro.

Businesses remain uncertain about the economic outlook and are reluctant to bring on extra staff, but few expect to cut jobs in the next six months, a survey of hiring intentions finds.
The survey of 1200 hiring managers by recruitment firm Robert Walters found sentiment evenly split in the professional jobs market, with 35 per cent of the hiring managers saying they expect no change in their pace of hiring in the second half of calendar 2014, compared to the first half.
Thirty-four per cent said they are less likely to hire, while 22 per cent said they were more likely to hire. Only nine per cent of hiring managers expect to downsize in the next six months.
The split survey outcome indicates firms and hiring managers are unsure about the outlook, said Robert Walters managing director, Australia and New Zealand, James Nicholson.
"My read on that is not much is happening one way or the other, it's evenly distributed," he said. "No one is sure and there's a lack of confidence."
Mr Nicholson said in the current environment, companies are more likely to only hire replacement permanent staff, as opposed to the "growth" hires companies make when they are confident of the economic outlook.
"We're seeing a lot of contractor fixed terms [and] temporary hiring."
Mr Nicholson does not think the federal budget is affecting business confidence – a view consistent with a private sector survey out last week. Instead, he said inconsistent demand is making businesses reluctant to take on extra staff.
"[But] there hits a point when people get bored in their job, and they take a risk and the whole merry-go-round starts again."
The survey finds that 60 per cent of hiring managers do not expect changes to salary levels, while the most sought-after position will be mid-level professionals.
The survey shows professionals in the retail, natural resources and telecommunications industry face an uncertain job market in the second half of the year,
A majority of hiring managers who placed workers in these industries said they are less likely to hire in the next months, citing lack of capacity and growth.
The hardest hit looks likely to be retail, where almost half of retail hiring managers said they are less likely to bring on new workers in the next six months.
In a separate market update release, Robert Walters expects there to be a steady increase in the hiring of lawyers, especially in commercial litigation.
The most sought-after types of lawyers will be junior solicitors with two to three years of post-qualification experience, and seniors with five to seven years of post-qualification experience in financial services, corporate mergers and acquisitions and general finance.
Much of the hiring demand will continue to be from large financial services institutions recruiting for their in-house practice.
An in-house counsel in the financial services industry in Sydney with five to eight years of post-qualification experience can expect a salary of between $140,000 and $220,000 a year, based on actual offers obtained by Robert Walters.
Labour force figures released last week show employment unexpectedly dropped in May, while the jobless rate surprised by holding steady.
Another labour market indicator released last week, the ANZ job advertisements survey, fell for the first time in five months.

How To 01: How to Promote Yourself
I get a ton of emails every week from people asking how to promote themselves. Instead of replying individually which would take many hours I've decided to post a series of blogs on promotion, media kits, blogging, and personal branding. First one up is promoting yourself.
Don't be afraid
Okay, so promoting yourself can be a little overwhelming if you don't know where to start. Here are a few simple ways to put yourself out there.
1. Business cards: Yes, I'm starting with paper. Business cards really come in handy when you are out and about and happen to meet someone you can network with, or someone interested in your project or idea. Vistaprint has very reasonable prices and ready-made layouts if you are not a designer. If you are a designer or know one willing to draw up your card, even better. Adding that personal touch can really make a card pop.
2. Start a blog, get on social networks, join communities that have to do with your projects and start writing. Remember to keep it simple and timeless. Don't overdo it with the advertisements. You will get much more traffic and build an audience by forming relationships based on mutual interests than if you just post up promotional ads for your work. For example, you have just painted the most beautiful piece of art that ever existed. Don't spam up your page with adverts for it. Talk about the painting process, what music were you listening to at the time? What was inspiring you? Join a illustration groups like this flickr group or participate in something like Warren Ellis' Remake/Remodel . Join social networks like facebook and twitter and search keywords for groups. Don't forget to join in the conversation. The more you interact, the more people will pay attention to you.
3. Send links to your favorite magazines, blogs, etc. The press is always looking for new stories, books to review, authors to interview etc. This can sound a bit scary, but remember that editors and reviewers are people too. Once you get over the intitial fear of contacting people it becomes second nature. Don't be too pushy, but do your research on the magazine, blog, etc and don't be afraid to talk about yourself, your blog, and how it pertains to their website or publication. Later you can send a press kit if you have one (I will talk about this is a later post). But in the meantime keep it simple. Most people weren't born with a list of contacts – they were just brave souls willing to put themselves out there for the sake of their work. Remember: fortune favors the bold.
4. Email your favorite writers, bloggers, artists, designers, and musicians. If anything you'll be making someone's day and it never hurts to tell someone you are a fan. Sometimes those very people you admire become fans or friends of yours. Networking with creative people will inspire you to get out there.
5. Determine your personal brand. What genre do you write for? What's your style writing wise and personality wise? In order for people to identify with you, they must get to know you. They have to feel connected to you in some way. What makes you unique?
6. Do your research. Look at other artist's websites, designer's sites, and artist reps' websites and blogs. There is some great information out there. One of my favorites is Nubby Twiglet. Her website offers designers great tips and marketing insights. http://www.nubbytwiglet.com If anything, you should subscribe to her blog for the plethora of information that is there for the taking.
7. Promotion takes perseverance. Take an hour or two every day to research who you will market to, answer questions or add your own to the artists groups, email, and blog. If you can set aside time every day to promote yourself it will seem less overwhelming, and you will eventually have a constant flow of feedback. Rome wasn't built in a day and neither was your following.
8. Do something unique! At my publishing company Knickerbocker Circus, the typewriter is part of our brand. So what did we do to kick off our companies first book and web launch? We took over a dive bar in NYC for one night and allowed attendees to use our vintage typewriters. Writers tapped into Bukowski and Burroughs's energy as they freewrote the night away. Our fans also took to the streets for They Be We, wheatpasting posters around the city and encouraging others to join the collective. As for me, I sent my rep a package filled with buttons, mirrors, and other trinkets to bring with her to meetings and send out to clients.
9. Don't wait until everything is perfect. There will never be a right time to submit that piece or unleash that genius blog of yours. If your content is good, people are not going to judge you if you are on livejournal or wordpress. The key to all of this is, again, putting yourself out there. Stop listening to that inner voice that says, "I don't know" or "I can't". Just do. If you make a mistake, learn from it. Try as many things as possible. You will find your niche eventually. There is always room for improvement and all of us are works in progress.
10. Be consistent with your blogging and social networking adventures. Figure out a schedule that is realistic and works for you. Maybe it's three days a week or maybe it's just Mondays at high traffic times. Just don't post content to post content. Make sure what you are posting is quality and true to who you are. People can smell bullshit a mile away.
*And remeber even though a lot of this focuses on the web. Sometimes postcards can be a nice surprise for an art director. They get so many emails every day that a piece of paper is sometimes all you need to stand out in a crowd

CULLOWHEE The Carrier Corp. manufacturing facility in Charlotte will be providing two high-efficiency rooftop heating and air conditioning units to Western Carolina University's construction management program.
One unit is a 20-ton component that has a Plexiglas side and full communicating controls for classroom and lab operation. Students will be able to operate this unit and safely observe all the functions.
The other unit is a 10-ton packaged standard efficiency heat pump. Units are pre-wired and pre-charged at the factory so that students may study the assembly and components.
These two additional units to the mechanical and electrical class will help our future project managers understand the heating, ventilation and air conditioning aspect of managing the construction of a commercial facility, said Bradford Sims, head of Western's construction management program.
Our students may someday be the project manager for a general contractor overseeing the HVAC subcontractor, or they may be the project manager for the HVAC portion of the project, managing the entire installation, cost and schedule, said Sims.
Carrier has been a world leader in the manufacture and sale of heating, ventilating, air conditioning, HVAC systems and products, said Sims. It is headquartered in Farmington, Conn., with more than 43,000 employees in nearly 175 countries.

LNG Terminal Threatens Status of World Heritage Site
"Quebec City's status as a UNESCO World Heritage Site may be put in jeopardy by the construction of the province's first liquefied natural gas terminal, a massive industrial complex on the St. Lawrence River, just 10 kilometres downstream from the historic city.
A committee of the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization, which will be meeting in Quebec City next week, has been asked by opponents of the Rabaska project to examine whether the Canadian and Quebec governments violated their commitment to protect the city as a world heritage site when it approved the LNG terminal, slated to be built in 2010.
Throughout the four-year battle to stop the project, citizens underscored the risks in allowing super tankers carrying liquefied natural gas to enter a narrow channel of the St. Lawrence River just three kilometres across from Iles d'Orléans. With its breathtaking view of the river, the island has been officially recognized as a provincial heritage site."

Problems of understanding fundamental calculus concepts by students in tertiary education colleges and universities are evidenced by a body of research studies conducted in different parts of the world. The researchers have identified, classified and analysed these problems from historical, epistemological, and learning theory perspectives. History is important because mathematical concepts are a result of the developments of the past. The way knowledge is acquired is an epistemological issue and the major purpose of learning is to acquire knowledge. Hence, these three perspectives qualify to be used as lenses in understanding problems that students encounter in a learning situation. The purpose of this study was to investigate the epistemological obstacles that mathematics students at undergraduate level encounter in coming to understand the limit concept. The role played by language and symbolism in understanding the limit concept was also investigated, because communication in the mathematics classroom takes place by using language and symbols.

SPORTS>>Community Bank turns things around
Leader sports editor
SHERIDAN Its hard to imagine a much worse beginning to the Sheridan Wood Bat Tournament than the one Cabot Community Bank suffered through on Thursday afternoon.
The first six Hot Springs batters reached safely. The first three scored.
But Cabot starter Matt Evans quickly got hold of things, allowing only three more base runners from that point on as Community Bank opened with an 8-3 win in the pool-play portion of the tournament.
Cabot (6-6) belted out 13 hits in the contest a particularly large number considering wood bats have much less firepower than the aluminum bats American Legion players are used to playing with.
Im pretty happy with eight runs and 13 hits, said Community Bank coach Jay Darr. We finally got our offense going and were able to come out of here with a win.
Darr was heading to the store after the game to buy more bats after his team broke five of the seven they brought with them.
Cabot took on Russellville in a game played last night after Leader deadlines, and will battle Sheridan tonight at 6:30. The tournament semifinals between the winners of the four pools will take place at 2 p.m. on Sunday, with the finals immediately following.
Two soft singles, three Cabot errors, a hit batsman and a walk got Hot Springs off and running on Thursday before catcher Ben Wainright threw out a runner trying to steal second and Evans retired the final two of the inning with just three runs worth of damage.
It took Cabot five innings to eventu ally erase that deficit, though they began in the first inning. Shayne Burgan and Drew Burks singled with one out. Burgan was gunned down trying to reach third on the play, but Burks made it 3-1 when Sam Bates beat out an infield single and the second baseman threw wildly to first.
In the third, Evans got the first of his three hits when he doubled with one out, then scored on Burgans single up the middle.
Community Banks bid to tie it in the fourth was thwarted when Ty Steele tried to score all the way from second on Jeff
Coopers ground-out to short. Steele was out at the plate.
Meanwhile, Evans was mowing them down, retiring 12 straight until Randy Youngs one-out single in the fifth.
Community Bank finally took the lead in the fifth with three runs on three hits. After Jeremy Wilson and Evans reached on infield singles, Burgan was dealt an intentional walk to load the bases. Burks then delivered a single past a drawn-in second baseman to score two and put Cabot on top 4-3. Burgan scored on Bates sacrifice fly.
With Evans dealing, insurance seemed unnecessary, but Community Bank got it in the sixth when they put together five hits to score three more runs. A double by Matt Turner and singles by Cooper, Wilson, Evans and Burgan made it 8-3.
Evans and Burgan each had three hits. Evans scored three times, while Burgan drove in two. Burks and Wilson added two hits apiece. Burks drove in two and Wilson scored twice.
Evans settled down to toss a 4-hitter, allowing two earned runs and fanning eight.
We got off to a slow start and they got a couple of bloop hits, Darr said. Thats going to happen (in a wood bat tournament) until your guys figure out where to position themselves.
Matt had a good game. He has a really good eye at the plate and a lot of pop. And you see what he can do on the mound.
Hes just a real well-rounded player.

The US Department of Agriculture says it has now provided a total of $269 million to fund the development of smart grids in America's rural communities, beating its investment goal of $250 million.
The target formed part of President Obama's plan to modernize the country's electrical system, helping utilities to become more efficient and consumers to save money by reducing energy use in homes and businesses.
Through its Rural Utility Service, the USDA has now provided loan guarantees totalling $269 million in ten states, including Colorado, Nebraska, New Mexico, Wyoming, Kansas, Minnesota, Missouri, Iowa, North Carolina and Wisconsin.
"Grid modernization and deployment of 'smart grid' technology will increase the reliability and efficiency of electric power generation," said Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack, in a statement. "Providing reliable, affordable electrical service contributes to stronger rural economies and is the backbone for a prosperous rural America. These loans will help ensure that rural areas can retain existing businesses, support new ones and have reliable, up-do-date infrastructure."
Vilsack said the infrastructure investments would come at virtually no cost to the taxpayer, reducing the need for new power plants.
He also said that smart grid technologies would provide the foundation for new products and services, such as smartphone-controlled thermostats, that will help consumers to save money on their electricity bills in future.
Vilsack made the announcement on funding during a tour of North Carolina's Piedmont Electric Membership Corporation, which received a guaranteed loan of $30,000,000 from the USDA to help extend its system by 52 miles and provide services to around 1,000 new member consumers.
Other beneficiaries in the state include Brunswick Electric Membership Corporation and Edgecombe-Martin County Electric Membership Corporation.
Brunswick has received a loan of $21,500,000 to build and improve 220 lines of distribution line and make other system improvements, while Edgecombe-Martin has been loaned $6.4 million. The firm, which is based in an area susceptible to hurricanes, plans to use about $1 million to install automatic meters.

Cut list applications for the Mac
Let me start out by saying that I don't use much computer software in my shop. I have no CNC machines and I don't use any cabinet design or CAD programs. Maybe I'm just too "old school" for that stuff but I really think it's more because my shop work is usually so "tweaky" that it's easier just to do full-scale layouts and write cut lists by hand.
Sometimes I design things using Adobe Illustrator, especially molding profiles and the like. And I use the Internet and e-mail extensively. But in general, when it comes to computers in the shop, I am not too "state of the art."
Another reason I have not gotten involved with these programs is that I have long been a Mac user and there have simply been no programs of this nature that will run on a Mac. Of course, I know how to use a Windows computer and there have always been virtualization programs that would allow Windows apps to run on Macs. And now the "new generation" of Macs are capable of running a Windows OS "natively", side by side with the Mac's own operating system, which means that you can turn your Mac into a Windows computer simply by rebooting it into an installed version of Windows, making it even more unlikely that software vendors are going to have any incentive to "port" their applications to the Mac.
Having said all that, I would like to point you to the one piece of software I am aware of, that is targeted at cabinet shops, and is actually available in a Mac version. It's called "Cabinet Cut" and you can see it here:
This is a "panel cutting optimizer", not a "full on" layout and design program. In fact, this would be considered a component of a fully fleshed out program like Cabinet Vision. But for those who have been waiting for a decent panel cutting optimizer that will run on a Mac, this could be your big chance …

No, he was alone with you, and thought it safe to be disrespectfully familiar.
If he were, he would hardly speak so disrespectfully of these batrachians.
Mamma, can you sit silently there and permit Queenie to address me so disrespectfully?

"She cones of a royal house," said Rameri, disrespectfully interrupting his father.
"The old girl looks as spry as ever," said Nelson disrespectfully.

Hot yoga sessions combine the benefits of yoga--breath control and increased flexibility--with the detoxifying benefits of a sauna. During sessions, students hone their balance and strength while the high temperature aids in circulation and keeps muscles elastic and supple. Students should arrive 10-15 minutes early and bring a mat, towel, and plenty of water (or rent or purchase from the studio for $1 each). Classes are scheduled seven days a week.
Hot Yoga
Studio owner, chiropractor, and hot-yoga enthusiast Dr. Bridget Brasfield helps her students to hone mind-body awareness through therapeutic yoga practice. Her studio heats up to a balmy 95 degrees to help even the most rigid of students to stretch and strengthen as they flow through a series of poses. As a result of the heat, students can also expect to sweat out the naturally occurring toxins that stem from everyday living and daily attempts to become superhuman via lab mishaps.

EXCLUSIVE: Family Guy executive producer David Goodman has joined the new Fox animated comedy series Allen Gregory as executive producer/ showrunner. The 20th TV/Chernin Entertainment project hails from co-creators Jonah Hill, Jarrad Paul and Andrew Mogel. Goodman, who is under an overall deal at 20th TV, will work alongside Paul and Mogel in running day-to-day operations on the show, which last month received a 7-episode order. Allen Gregory's title character is the world's most celebrated seven-year-old who embarks on the greatest challenge of his life: attending elementary school with regular kids. Executive producing the series are Hill, Mogel, Paul, Goodman, Peter Chernin and Katherine Pope. UTA-repped Goodman did a stint as a co-executive producer on Fox's Family Guy during the show's original incarnation and has served as an executive producer on the hit animated comedy since its 2005 return.
David Goodman To Run 'Allen Gregory'
7 Comments
Gotta say, I'm excited about this one. Not a bad team behind it.
Goodman sounds like Ray Romano. Funny guy.
This is a funny concept. Didn't Jonah Hill play a kid like this in an SNL sketch years back?
I just wonder who they think is gonna watch this stuff.
Script was amateurish, homophobic and a tad hateful. Goodman has his work cut out for him.
Godfrey? Come on, like Fox is going to put a second animated Black series on the air. What a waste of Kenya Barris' time. If he had any talent it'd be a waste of that, too!
