John Dodge: I don't want a story just about ships and planes. I want it about the men who run them - how they live and think and talk. I want it from a pen dipped in salt water, not dry martinis.
'Jughead' Carson: [the General has just given him some whiskey for Spig] Well, thank you sir!
'Jughead' Carson: [he chugs it and throws it behind the mirror] They can make better booze in a bathtub!

Min Wead: Why don't you!
Frank W. 'Spig' Wead: Alright, I been thinking what a heel I been about you and my own kids, I do something I go all the way, living, gambling, flying, tap myself out I guess that what I wanted to be. Maybe way I am.
Min Wead: Star spangled Spad damn the marguritte and full speed ahead and don't give up the ship.
Frank W. 'Spig' Wead: Have a drink, Listen Min I'm trying to say I been a fool, first grade gold brand
Min Wead: So Have I!
Frank W. 'Spig' Wead: [Grabs her] Okay, Let change it, lets grow up before our kids do

Min Wead: Star Spangled Spig
Frank W. 'Spig' Wead: And a squad leader

Frank W. 'Spig' Wead: Right!

Spurs are now third in the Premier League, seven points behind leaders Chelsea, after Dele Alli's double secured the hosts' fifth straight success at White Hart Lane.
"Our performance showed we can be competitive and we can achieve big things," Pochettino said. "It's only one game. We need to be regular and consistent during the whole season.
"We're happy for the victory, but it's only three points. If we want to fight until the end of the season for big things, for trophies, you need to keep that intensity. That is always the challenge."
Chelsea were seeking a single-season record of 14 straight wins, to draw level with Arsenal's all-time record from 2002 which was spread across two campaigns.
The Blues would have gone 10 points clear of their hosts with victory and eight clear of Liverpool, but now their lead is five points.
"It was important for us to reduce the gap," Pochettino added. "The top four is very competitive, it's very close. It's true the gap still is important to Chelsea.
"It was the perfect thing for us to arrive to third place and be close. That is important for us and there are a lot of games before the end of the season."

A vendor would like to have a private forum on our community boards with only a new usergroup able to visit.
We already have a premium group, which payments are handled by our own paypal account.
For the new usergroup I'd like to be able to insert the paypal address of the vendor so they can take care of the financial side.
Reading the 1.3 release of XF I thought it would be possible to add an alternative paypal address for another non-default usergroup update but beside the field for "alternate account" i am not able to assign this alternate account to the new upgrade.
Have i misunderstood this feature?

Taken at Tanilba House, Tanilba Bay NSW. This historic home was built by Lieutenant William Caswell …utilising convict labour he started with a slab hut in 1829, expanding to a cottage in 1831, and laid the foundations of Tanilba House in 1837, built of quartz porphyry stone which was quarried nearby. The mortar came from lime produced by burning oysters. It still even has its own small gaol cell out the back where convicts were held when they misbehaved.

₹ 5,499 Décathlon
Good make, price is better
very good designed for kids
This bike is a nice one, I took it for my daughter the girl one, but the lower part of spokes have started to rust in just 2 months and paint of the body is also not satisfying me. Should have chain guard as it is for kids.
This BTWIN racing boy 300 is good overall.but steering has 180 degree rotation which is absolutely not safety for learning kids.my son fell down two times due to this.there should be 90 degree angle limiter in this bike.after learning we can remove this angle limiter if we want.I recommend to add an accessory(the steering angle limiter for 90degree) which is optional to buy.this is important.
It's a good bike simple bike with bright colour. Can be a little cheaper in price.
colours are bright
little expensive for gearless bike

Grand Duchess Charlotte of Luxembourg
Destiny (Expression) Number 7
Grand Duchess Charlotte of Luxembourg was a female celebrity.
She was born on Thursday January 23rd 1896, in Colmar-Berg, Luxembourg.
Grand Duchess Charlotte of Luxembourg is gifted with an analytical mind and an enormous appetite for the answers to life's hidden questions. She has a strong interest in exploring scientific matters, philosophy, and even mysticism. Charlotte possesses clarity and persistence in her search for truth, and she can be a great researcher, educator, and philosopher.
Duchess Charlotte is driven by a desire for knowledge and truth. She must learn to discriminate between illusion and reality, but she is well equipped for this task. Grand Duchess Charlotte of Luxembourg's fine mind offers her insight into the veiled mysteries of life. Charlotte also possesses a considerable amount of perspective. Somewhere inside her, Duchess Charlotte is aware of a peaceful place that she can call upon during difficult times.
Grand Duchess Charlotte of Luxembourg needs time to be by herself. Too much social interaction causes her stress. Charlotte needs her privacy and a place that can be shut off from the hustle and bustle of life. She tends to keep her thoughts to herself and is secretive. Unless Charlotte's 7 destiny is balanced by extrovert characteristics (usually revealed by the numbers 1, 3, 5, and 8), her introversion may pull her deeply within herself, even cutting her off from others.
Duchess Charlotte has a strong dislike of the superficial and mundane. She is often surprised by the lack of understanding or depth of knowledge of others, many of whom do not take the search for knowledge as seriously as Charlotte does. This can cause Grand Duchess Charlotte of Luxembourg to be critical of others, and even cynical about life in general.
The more cut off from others she becomes, the more hidden are her motives. Once Duchess Charlotte develops understanding of people and life, her advice and counsel will be sought by those around Charlotte who need her wisdom.
Grand Duchess Charlotte of Luxembourg loves to specialize her knowledge and develop great depth within her field. She is a perfectionist.
Charlotte should complete her studies early in life and not be driven too hard by a desire to be successful. She needs to let things come at there own pace, be open to opportunity, but remember that her rewards, satisfaction, and contentment come from a higher source.
Sevens can be distant and aloof. When dominated by their darker characteristics, they can be unfaithful, dishonest, and cruel. Contemplation, meditation, and the softer, finer vibrations of life can restore Charlotte's sense of harmony and keep her on the path to peace and balance.
Grand Duchess Charlotte of Luxembourg has a logical mind. Her analytical skills cause her to approach a problem in a detached, surgical kind of way. Researchers, analysts, investigators, inventors, technicians, scholars, lawyers, bankers, watchmakers, priests, philosophers, theologians, and administrators in some scientific or technical field are among the vocations 7s are drawn to.
You and Charlotte
About Charlotte's Destiny (Expression) number
The Destiny number reveals the talents, abilities, and shortcomings that were with Grand Duchess Charlotte of Luxembourg when she entered her human body. Her name, and the numbers derived from it, reveals Charlotte's development, as well as the talents and issues she will be working with during this life.

Will Johnny Depp's Jack Sparrow go up against an army of zombies in 2011's fourth installment in the Pirates of the Caribbean series? The actor was at Comic-Con to talk about the film – and what he had to say was pretty interesting.
According to Depp, the film will involve "zombies, cut-throats, Mer-women and Penelope Cruz." So that's not much to go on, but we're told that the film does indeed feature a considerable amount of zombies. How frightening they are, however, remains to be seen.
"Produced by Jerry Bruckheimer and directed by Rob Marshall, "Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides" captures the fun, adventure and humor that ignited the hit franchise—this time in Disney Digital 3D™. Johnny Depp returns to his iconic role of Captain Jack Sparrow in an action-packed tale of truth, betrayal, youth and demise. When Jack crosses paths with a woman from his past (Penelope Cruz), he's not sure if it's love—or if she's a ruthless con artist who's using him to find the fabled Fountain of Youth. When she forces him aboard the Queen Anne's Revenge, the ship of the formidable pirate Blackbeard (Ian McShane), Jack finds himself on an unexpected adventure in which he doesn't know who to fear more: Blackbeard or the woman from his past.
The international cast includes franchise vets Geoffrey Rush as the vengeful Captain Hector Barbossa, and Kevin R. McNally as Captain Jack's longtime comrade Joshamee Gibbs, plus Sam Claflin as a stalwart missionary and Astrid Berges-Frisbey as a mysterious mermaid. In theaters Memorial Day weekend, 2011.

I have been talking to this guy for past 3 months. I dont know if he has any psychological issues or not but he has lately been calling me ugly, fat and then right after say he is joking and i am really pretty and he wants to be with me forever. He does now and then call me a bitch and all that and i find it disrespectful and tell him that its not how matured and civilized people talk. then he goes he is joking, he feels he can tell me anything coz he likes me so much. Yesterday he called me and all of sudden out of no where he says he is gay and he kept going of how he was gay for 2 years and he had a physical relationship with a guy and how the guy gave him a bj. I was shocked and i was like wtf is this shit! he kept going how nobody understands him and girls rejected him after listening to this and now he has told me so i shouldn't leave him. I then told him that this is a really sick joke he is playing and if he really wants me to leave him then he should just say not play this gay joke. Anyways after that he was like how did i know he was joking and he wanted to see how i would react and then he was like yeah we should stop talking to each other. I said ok and we hung up. Then again he messaged me after 2 mins and he goes he was joking i am not ugly i am actually really pretty and he wants to be with me forever. I am really confused as to if this guy is a psycho or just likes to annoy me or what? Can someone help me understand him? I do like him but after he said the gay story it was a turn off for me. I dont know what to do? Is he really gay? 4 weeks ago he did mention one time i asked him whats up he was like i feel like fucking a guy! seriously i am having a doubt now? please somebody tell me?

Decision makers
- The President of the United States
People for Peace Urge Pres. Obama to Immediately End All Hostilities in Iraq and Afghanistan.
People for Peace want a grassroots movement to end the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan Immediately. These conflicts are immoral, unjustified and counter-productive. We do not want America's children to continue being used as fodder for our aggressions, nor do we want innocent civilians to be killed and lives shattered. If the huge amouns of money spent on these wars are recycled to fund our urgent domestic needs, we can begin to solve the problems of joblessness, inadequate health care, poor education and all the other desperate problems facing the U.S. The vast majority of Americans want these hostilities ended immediately. If we unite in a large mass, we can STOP THE WARS. Join me!
- The President of the United States
We People of Peace urge you to cease hostilities and occupations of Iraq and Afghanistan and bring all our troops and weapons of war home immediately.
You will not solve our economic disasters until the money wasted on these useless and unjustified wars is returned to our domestic needs. Beyond the economics, however, we mourn the loss of lives of America's military children, as well as the shattered and lost civilian lives caught up in our aggressions.
We must stop killing our nation's children in wars that profit nothing or noone other than arms merchants and corporate thirst for oil. Please, Mr. President, STOP THE KILLING AND END OUR WARS...NOW!!

Tai Chi is a martial arts style first introduced in the series by Kang-Sung. Tai Chi Arts are the best amongst the Song Clan[1]
They are referred to as Legendary Arts. These arts focus on stopping the flow and controlling the direction of power/force. Thus, the practitioner can nullify any attack and direct its force towards any direction including sending it back to the attacker.[1]
The function of these arts against attacks is explained as the water against a knife. Just as no sword can cut water in the same way no attack can penetrate the defenses of Tai Chi.[1] This implies that even someone of a lower level can overpower a stronger opponent.
The Tai Chi Arts require a foothold for the practitioner to use them. If that foothold is lost then the practitioner is unable to use the Tai Chi Arts. Thus, users of Tai Chi would be unable to fight to the full extent in midair. Their ability to nullify attacks is weakened and the practitioner takes part of the damage as well. Depending on the difference in strength between the practitioners is also the damage the practitioner is unable it redirect.[2]
- Reflection Technique: one of the greatest techniques of the Tai-Chi Arts that reflects an attack back to the attacker. The only known user is Kang-Sung.[1]

Calculating recovery time metrics for each application is an important goal for any Disaster Recovery Plan (DRP). In short, critical hardware and applications must be brought back online quickly and restored to their most recent backup point. This research note takes a close look at:
- Calculating and formulating recovery metrics.
- Defining the relationship between recovery and availability.
- Finding out which technologies support established recovery objectives.
Define what is required to meet recovery objectives and whether these goals are realistic. Unless the IT organization has developed recovery objectives for critical hardware and software, recovery from a disaster will be extremely difficult, if not impossible.

"what a brilliant surgeon and staff"
About: Musgrove Park Hospital Musgrove Park Hospital Taunton TA1 5DA
Posted by Grahame
I wrote a bad review on the 8th October about my father of 83 years being sent home. Well I took my dad to Musgrove for a major operation this was the second time we went due to the surgeon being ill. As soon as we got there he was called up for all his checks, the nurse took my dad off to get change and ready for surgery. She said she would let my mother and myself know when we can see him. After 45 minuets I asked where my dad was and the reception nurse said he has gone to theatre. Wow that was quick. So my mother and myself went home. Later on in the afternoon the surgeon rang my mum and reassured her everything went well which I thought was very nice of him. Today 29th October we went to visit my dad what a change in him all the pains he was having has gone. The operation done on him was excellent. I would just like to thank the surgeon and all the nursing staff for all the work you done for my dad and now he can get his life back together. xx
Response from Musgrove Park Hospital 2 years ago
Thank you very much indeed for taking the time to write to give praise to the staff who recently cared for your father when he had surgery at Musgrove Park. It is always a pleasure to receive commendations such as yours and I thank you for your kind comments which I will pass on to the staff involved. I was sorry to read of your concerns earlier in the month but I am very pleased that you have seen a positive change in your father when you visited him yesterday following his surgery.

At least they seem to have hot pics...idk but I'm sure they are real pics of themselves (cell phone or webcam pics, so I'm assuming it's all real).
Anyway, don't hot girls have so much abundance/preference in dating and sex? I would think they have no problem dating and attracting...So why go on GAG when they can be having sex? lmao.
Most Helpful Guy
The problem a lot of "hot" girls have is either shyness to the point of awkwardness, or the paradox of d-bags being the only guys that approach her while the more genuine guys are afraid to approach her because of fear of rejection.
I've been on this site since 2010, talked to a lot of girls on this site, and trust me, being physically appealing doesn't make dating a walk in the park.
In fact it's arguable that the above fact is the most important thing I've learned from being a member on this website. :-P11|00|0

Windows Video Drivers
From MobileRobots Research and Academic Customer Support
How do I install the framegrabber drivers on Windows?
On Windows computers, the frame grabbers use the drivers provided by the manufacturers. See the Drivers page for links to download either from MobileRobots or directly from the manufacturer of the framegrabber. If the frame grabber seems to be malfunctioning, check the Device Manager in the Hardware tab of the System control panel for its status. Contact Support if you need to reinstall the driver.
Note: if, rather than a PC-104 or PCI framegrabber card, you have an ethernet image acquisition device (e.g. Vapix) or IEEE-1394 (Firewire) or USB camera, standard Windows drivers should be automatically loaded with no configuration necessary. MobileRanger C3D stereo cameras use their own PC-104 interface card and are not standard video devices, though the images are available. See the MobileRanger C3D Stereo Camera pages for drivers and more information.
For the framegrabber to work in ACTS, SAV Server, and some other programs, DLL files must be copied from the framegrabber CD-ROM into either the Windows system root directory, or the same directory as a program that needs them (e.g. ACTS/bin):
- For the PXC card, copy these 5 dll's (available from the PXC driver installation) into one of the aforementioned directories:
FRAME_32.dll PXC_NT.dll PXC2_NT.dll PXCDD.dll VIDEO_32.dll
- For the Imperx VCE, copy VCE_Tools.dll.
- For the Sensoray 311, copy SX11.dll.
- For the Hauppauge Impact VCE, copy O100VC.dll from the driver CD.
If you need an extra PCMCIA frame grabber for a laptop computer running Windows, contact email@example.com for more information.
Image acquisition API
For options on capturing images in your software, see Capturing Video.

Role of Perth Zoo
Perth Zoo gets hands-on in wildlife conservation, at home and beyond our borders. This is what makes us one of the world's best small zoos. One simple vision inspires and directs our work – a world where diversity of species and habitats is secure.
The role and purpose of zoos have changed enormously in recent decades. Perth Zoo – in collaboration with scientific agencies, governments and other conservation partners – plays a part in the much bigger picture of the conservation of our natural world. We contribute directly to the preservation of species and habitat diversity while also providing visitors with the opportunity to encounter the natural world and become involved in conservation.
A world where diversity of species and habitats is secure.
To inspire and act for wildlife conservation.
We aim to connect people with nature, inspire in people a passion for conservation and provide links and practical means [here at the Zoo and beyond our borders] for individuals to become involved conservation. We role-model environmental sustainability and promote ways that our visitors can contribute to conservation by creating a learning environment and providing opportunities for visitor involvement.
Zoo conservation 'beyond our borders'
The Conservation Strategy of the World Association of Zoos & Aquaria (WAZA) calls on zoos worldwide to integrate all aspects of their work with field conservation activity. Perth Zoo is well ahead of this mandate with our acclaimed native species breed-for-release program, fundraising support of global conservation programs, cooperation with other zoos, conservation and research organisations, and the world first relocation of zoo-born orangutans into protected habitat in Sumatra. We aim to further expand our support in the future by partnering in similar breed-for-release programs for exotic species. Our cooperation will extend to human development agencies, overseas governments and local communities since a successful project can make a difference not only to wildlife conservation but also to associated human communities by improving employment, education and basic living conditions, as well as helping to change people's attitudes to the importance of the natural world. See the Conservation section for details of field conservation work supported by Perth Zoo.
Accreditation (since 2008)
The Australasian Zoo and Aquarium Association (ZAA) accreditation program establishes, maintains and raises standards of operations in the zoo and aquarium community. It independently reviews and validates facilities and standards in zoos and ensures that agreed standards are met. Accreditation of zoos through ZAA gives the general public and zoo visitors confidence in their zoos and aquariums, not only in animal welfare but also their work for conservation. Perth Zoo was one of the first zoos to achieve accreditation (Jan 2008). This confirmed that Perth Zoo operates at a high standard and that there is strong commitment to conservation at all levels. To ensure high standards are maintained, the accreditation is reviewed every five years and three Perth Zoo staff-members have trained as Accreditation Officers. For more information about ZAA and accreditation, visit zooaquarium.org.au.

Discussion in 'Fan Zone' started by Galian Beast, Mar 19, 2014.
Yeah, Martin would be a solid pick.
But Waters is so superior to anybody we have except Smith and Fredrickson..
even admittedly out of shape.
Tell me again what Leary did in his 1st NFL season as a starter to deserve a demotion?
Negative, not opposed to Waters coming back, but disagree with your premise.
I would like to get Parnell some playing time this year. I think he has potential(he has the build) and I would hate to give up on him without knowing whether he can start or not. An OG that could start in 2015 should be drafted.
You many be right and maybe not. Both have made progress although I have to admit I don't trust either. But then I don't trust Waters to stay on the field. Mack filled in reasonably well. If I knew Waters could stay healthy.....but I'd rather roll the dice on a young guy. We need depth along the interior and I'd love having a C/G to add to the fold.
OL I felt did a good job even after Waters went down, my issue is people talk about the country club atmosphere well here is the chance to put the foot down. You want to play? Then sign a contract and get to camp. I like Waters and maybe if I was in his shoes I too would sit around wait till camp is done then choose to play but for the Cowboys I think they have to start changing the mindset that we are here to work and win games not this attitude I will show up when I'm ready. Sometime you do things for the greater good.
Just to play devils advocate what did he do to deserve being penciled in as the starter in March? I didn't see him blowing up people like scouts said he's capable of. Zach Martin pick would make me a happy man if we can't get a DL stud. With that said i think Leary is an ok starter but I don't see his ceiling growing with a degenerative knee so if I can replace I am
So who is this year's Larry Warford? The new guy to earn your shoulda coulda drafted this OG instead of skill position player X award?
I'm convinced that Parnell would be better than Free after a few starts. Physically, you can't get much better. He is much much stronger than Free and his athleticism is similar to Tyron's. The issue is that he has minimal experience and the only way to get experience is to play in real games. He maxed out in terms of practice and preseason games. Callahan wanted to bench Free and start Parnell in 2012, but "management" preferred the more experienced Free. The compromise was a rotation for the final 4 games of that season. Parnell was injured for most of the 2013 preseason and didn't get a chance to unseat Free; although, I'm not sure it was an open competition anyway. The Cowboys have been known to play the guys with bigger contracts.
Waters is done....
Time to move on from Waters, draft an OG to get ready to play soon. I'm ok with keeping the OL the same going into this year. But we need depth and a few eventual starters in a few years.
The line played well but Free's replacement should be drafted this year. He is too weak for the position and too inconsistent to be built upon. Of course we can't draft all the positions we want in one draft, but a tackle or guard in the early rounds would be good for depth/2015 starter. If the DL of choice are off the board, Martin wouldn't be a bad choice as an initial starting G and hopeful starting T in 2015.
Dude could come out of the hospital and still be better than half the guards in the league, he was a beast when we had him.. I saw him block two guys on several plays...
I am, Cowboys need a culture change. You want the job you go out and earn the job.
There was a time when Jerry and Jimmy were together that was the case even with pay. When Irvin wanted jerry Rice money Jerry told him produce like Jerry and you will get the money. Same with Emmitt when he wanted Barry Sanders money. They went out and earned it and jerry paid.
No. He'd come back and start if something happened to Bern or Leary, or if either played poorly enough in the preseason for Dallas to feel it can't trust them.
Leary was playing at a very high level by the end of the season. I had him graded as having a near perfect game near the end of the season.
He was even better if you understand what they were doing within the scheme.
The had Bern keep a closer than normal spacing to Free in pass pro. This prevented the outsiide rusher from beating Free to the inside and allowed Free to overset to the outside giving him an advantage. They had Fred heavily favor helping to the fight to compensate for Bern who was compensating for Free. The net result was that despite being a first time starter with zero experience prior to the 2013 season, Leary received minimal help and often was on a island similar to an OT. It was terrific coaching to make Free appear to be a much improve player when in reality most of his improvement came from the scheme.
Bern was decent by the end of the season due to finally being healthy; however, he was not as good as Leary.
The biggest issue that they have zero depth at OG.
Degenerative is probably not a good description of Leary's knee issue. If it fails, then it's bad, but short of it faliing or coming loose, it shouldn't bother him. It's kind of like Irvin's spinal issue. It was not expected to ever bother him unless he got hit in just the right spot at which point it could have been catastrophic.
Jonathan Vilma was diagnosed in High School with the same condition as Leary. He made it through college and 10 years in the NFL without it ever failing.
Leery and Bernadette Peters did fine. We don't need All Pro's at the OG spots. Fred-beard anchored the middle, and suddenly Bernadette Peters became a serviceable OG.
one thing to consider is waters was'nt what he is today, or when he finished, when he started. it takes time to develope guys and waters is a prime example of a guy who took time to develope. when he did he was a great one but leary has one year and was as good last year as waters was his first year. does'nt mean he will ever reach what waters does but you only find out if they play

good psychiatrist, caring
This was my first psych appt ever and it was very easy and I felt very comfortable talking to him and telling him everything that was going on with me. My physical symptoms were getting really insane and they scheduled my appt within a few days of me calling (it was getting pretty urgent and I'm so thankful it was so quick). He's not just going to dope you up, hes going to really try and address the problem and find a good treatment for it. Within days I was feeling better and I'm on a track to get even better. The only negative is the wait time, which is a little extreme, 30-1 hour even, however I feel like I couldn't really complain about that because he spends equally as much time with me personally so I feel like I cant complain about the wait times if I actually want a doctor I can talk to and he can spend some time with me.

Nothing Much Here.
I went to Kok Lim Strawberry Farm when I was on my way back home as my sister-in-law wanted to get more strawberries before we ended our cold holiday. I remember this place quite clearly as it had this giant strawberry statue that reminded me more of a chilli rather that a strawberry. The shape of it I mean.
While I was there, it wasn't much different from all the other strawberry farms there. You have people trying to sell strawberry-based products which is mainly focused at tourists. Then you have the strawberry dipped in chocolate. Something about strawberries here seem a bit weird. It didn't look fresh so my sister-in-law decided to go elsewhere to purchase strawberries. I bought popcorn here though.

Valle Crucis Festival
The Valle Country Fair, sponsored by Holy Cross Episcopal Church, is held in the field across from the Apple Barn on the third Saturday of October each year. The idea for the Fair actually came about as a fundraiser for the Church of the Holy Cross building fund. When it was "pitched" to the rector, he agreed with the idea with the understanding that in coming years the fund from the Fair would be shared with the community.
In the beginning, the people of the church made many of the crafts, cooked the food, provided the entertainment, helped with parking, and threw a big square dance at the Apple Barn on Fair night. Over the last 20 plus years, a few things have changed. Now, vendors from all over the South make their way to what they term as "the most successful show of the year." Parking is typically handled by another community group as a fundraiser; the elementary school does a chicken or poor man's supper in the evening; and other non-profit groups set up booths with food, etc.
One of the goals of the Valle Country Fair is to provide a "home-grown" experience. Crafters are juried in and must hand-make their items. The canned goods, cakes, muffins, cookies, etc. are all made in home kitchens. The entertainment is all local and can range from bluegrass to storytelling to clogging to poetry reading. Come early for the best selection and get your applebutter first thing – it sells out before the end of the day.Read more

Why do entrepreneurs - business opportunity minded people, make millions and you don't? They are smarter than you are? They are luckier than you are? They are more interested in making money than you are?
In most cases, the answer is none of the above. Rich people think differently than you do. Very differently.
We all faces challenging, and oftentimes frustrating, circumstances. How do we react to these circumstances? You (okay, we are assuming that you are not yet a millionaire) probably view them as something to struggle from, cope with and finally wiggle out of until you longer have to deal with them. You eagerly await the day that you arrive at your challenge-free paradise.
Entrepreneurs - business opportunity minded people, have a dramatically different approach. They love challenges. They happily embrace them. Like a weightlifter who builds muscle from resistance training, successful people build mental muscle and develop life-altering fortitude from challenging situations. They view a problem from the perspective as to how it can be an opportunity for growth and how they can emerge stronger from it. And then they do. And what do they do next? The same way the weightlifter goes onto heavier weights, successful people take that renewed sense of accomplishment and purpose which they gained from confronting earlier challenges, and they take on new ones.
But what does it take to get to achieve this clarity of mindset which turns every challenge into a growing opportunity?
There are three basic components to developing the mindset that you need to reach your full potential:
• Don't be complacent: Unlike their not-as-successful peers, rich people are never satisfied with the status quo. When you begin with that mindset, it naturally follows that challenges are opportunities to move to the next level, not hindrances from staying on your current one. Why do many people suffer from complacency and not make not an effort to improve their situation? They don't want to make more money? They are not interested in improving their relationships? They don't care about exercise and maintaining good health? They likely want all of these. The problem is that they want to accomplish these goals but they have not properly absorbed the fact that they need to achieve them, or at the very least, try to achieve them. Humans are meant to grow, advance, and develop. Successful people understand that and are never complacent with their current situation.
• Ignore the Negativity : Deep inside (possibly even as you read this article), something is telling you that you can't achieve so much, it's too hard to become great, and mediocrity will be just fine. Seriously, for goodness sake, don't listen. This is your undoing. You are meant to succeed and you have the talent, intelligence and fortitude to do whatever you want to. You just need to convince yourself that it's possible, which, first and foremost means paying no mind to all the naysayers. The problem for most people is that this negativity is mostly taking place inside of their heads. That's where successful people stand out. Inside their heads, they have voices telling them you should do it, you can do it, and you will do it. Those voices reign supreme and they end up being right time and time again. Success breeds success, and eventually, millions of dollars.
• Practice Makes Perfect (Really!) : People see public success and are jealous. It's human nature. What they don't see are the hours of blood, sweat and tears that resulted in that success. Millionaires, as well as successful people in any field, practice relentlessly. They practice and practice until they are the best at what they do. Don't give up on something after a short time and wonder why you can't be as successful as so-and-so. That person probably expended more energy than you can imagine, before achieving that level. If you want to be there, you will have to do the same. And don't let setbacks get in the way. Remember, that failure is a learning experience and a chance to grow immeasurably so you can do that much better next time.
So you want to be a millionaire? Remember it's all in your head. Embrace your challenges as growth opportunities, battle complacency while looking forward to bigger and better things, and practice all the time. And hey, you're reading this article. You are already off to a great start.
Regardless of the cost, you can complete a sale's deal if you totally understand the needs of your prospective buyer and if you offer quality products. It doesn't mean that your prospect will keep a blind eye on the price label.
Since all buyers are human, it shouldn't come as a surprise to you if they enquire and haggle about the price because everyone wants the best deal. The rule of thumb you should always follow is to let your potential customer know the price beforehand. This will help you shift out those who cannot purchase and help you to identify those with enough money to make a purchase.
When the sale is in progress, it is your duty to gather all the relevant facts that can enable you put forth your prepositions and the rate of return you expect from your product. What you must not allow to happen is a shocked customer when they see the price sticker at the conclusion of the sale. The inevitable consequence of that is bubbling frustration because both parties have already invested effort and time in the process.
Below are tips about how
to address the cost of your service or product with three different types of
typical buyers: the influencer, the decision maker, and the champion.
The Champion
Although the champion might be on your side, he/she will be of little value if they lack any pull. It is important for them to understand the company dealings so that while representing you, they can make the decision maker and the influencer appreciate his/her point of view.
A well-coached champion brings an atmosphere of trust, and therefore, he/she is better placed to clinch a winning deal in the battle for prices in by asking the following questions:
The Influencer
The influencer could be the individual giving the decision maker advice or they could be responsible for managing the RFP. It is essential to know what they personally invest in your solution because they can also be champions.
Find out why they may complain about the price to understand where their concerns originate. The reason is that that the influencer has the ability to change the mind of the decision maker. To the influencer, ask the following questions about why they reject the price so that you can determine the real issues.
The Decision Maker
The decision maker comes in at the last stages when the price is firmly stated. State the price and shut up to weigh their reactions. If the decision maker seems undecided, don't rush for the discount, but you can offer freebies to get the contract signed.
Consult with the manager of sales if their no progress, but the price shouldn't count now if you engaged the prospect well. You can resolve the issues around the price in this ways.
Before explaining why being the cheapest guy (or gal) around
is a bad idea in the web dev world, let us clearly differentiate something.
When we write about low prices being bad, we are not talking about teaser
rates, discounts, low introductory pricing, give aways or any kind of marketing
or sales technique one might employ to entice business. When we discuss the bad
side of low pricing, we're discussing the clients...
The people who will jump ship and go with one web developer over another based on price alone are a unique kettle of fish. These are not value shoppers, these are not the price conscious, nor are they the coupon-crowd, these are the know-nothing crowd – and you had better be careful. Wow, way to group a bunch of people together and prejudge them huh? Well, let us give you an analogy that will clarify.
Imagine a man (or woman) who has a toothache decides to shop for a dentist not based upon professionalism or track record, but upon price. He or she visits a dentist and learns it will cost a bit to repair said tooth, on the way out the door a creepy looking man approaches with a pair of pliers and offers to pull the tooth for the price of a bottle of rum.
Now, ask yourself, what should this person do? A: Run really fast or B: Go with the creepy guy, at least he's cheap!?
Now I know, you are probably grinning, but this funny analogy truly is directly analogous to the business owner who entrusts their brand, reputation, future earnings not to mention passwords and other sensitive data to a company based purely on price. The fact is, these type of shoppers are ignorant and see the price and not the value of the service.
Now, a strong argument could be made that if you educate such shoppers, they will change their tune and suddenly wake-up, however experience has taught us that this isn't the case. Shoppers who ardently pursue low prices in the web development arena have already gotten quotes from numerous professionals – to compare – and you can bet your bottom dollar that each and every one of them tried their best to educate them – and failed. The fact is, the prospect who is price shopping and comparing different companies in an effort to find the cheapest is likely very entrenched in their opinion that price is all that matters and you wont change this.
Another thing experience has taught us is that there is an inverse correlation between the amount a client pays and the difficulty of working with them. The clients who fight for low prices are also often those who will fight for the most work for it – a double edged sword.
So here we have clients who generally hold the entrenched opinion that 'all development is the same' whom want to pay the least, while also expect the most. This is the worst kind of client situation anyone in development could find themselves in.
Good clients
Generally speaking good clients are those who understand there is truth to the old saying "you get what you pay for". Good clients will scrutinize details, they will ask engaging questions, they will worry about how much BENEFIT a service will bring to them BEFORE worrying about its cost. Cost is a real consideration for everyone, but generally speaking, even a 150% price difference is not large enough to change someones mind when the cost of the service is minimal compared to its value. Trying to win by being the cheapest works in commodities, where qualitative difference matters very little, but it doesn't work in professional services – and never, ever will.
Guerrilla is a French word and it means a small force taking
on a large force, in the context of business it means, essentially, how to
market without a big (or any) budget. There are many ways entrepreneurs can
market themselves without a huge budget and we're going to explore just a few
here and try to shed some light on them, and hopefully give you some useful
By far the easiest way to Guerrilla market is locally. At a local level you have access to businesses, organizations and people who can help you to grow your presence and engage with prospects. What a lot of resellers are not aware of is just how easy it is to do.
The first thing you need to realize is that all around are businesses that serve other businesses and most importantly – have databases of their clients. If you play your cards right with just one of these businesses, you can wind up benefiting tremendously from that data. Here are a few ways to do it:
A question that often gets posed to us at Rocket Driver is
who is the ideal candidate to become a partner with us, while there is no
single answer, I'd like to address just one group who seem to ask that question
a lot – the people who are looking to work from home.
Let's face it, starting a business with a whole pile of venture capital, an office and employees from day 1 is by and large an antiquated and academic concept of business – most businesses start small and grow, by small I mean they start from peoples garages, hobby shops and – you guess it, their homes. Having said that, it makes it perfectly normal to start a business from home and if you are starting a business from home, is there a more perfect business than the one of reselling digital marketing solutions? More precisely, websites.
I would argue that unique skills, talents or circumstances not withstanding, there is no more perfect business to launch from your home than the business of selling websites – why?
Let's go through my reasoning:
1. It's low overhead & Low investment
Everything you need to start a website sales business (besides the nominal business setup fees) you already own already – you have a PC? Check!, you have the internet? Check! You own a mobile phone? Check! Can you open and edit text documents? Check!
2. It requires little travel (or none at all)
With many types of business you have to invest enormous time traveling locally or nationally and that means time behind the wheel, away from family adding costs, stress and pressure. With website sales you can sit on the couch making calls and conduct demonstrations of your technology from the comfort of your Laptop, PC or even Tablet or Phone – there is little or no travel necessary, it's optional.
3. You can start part time
With many kinds of business it is an all-or-nothing proposition, you either invest 120 hours a week at it or zero hours – no middle ground – that is not so for digital marketing services where you can start and run your business according to your own time table, spend 5 hours one week, 20 the next and 10 the next. Due to the low overhead costs and lack of pressure, you have ongoing and infinite flexibility – this matters because the lack of flexibility in most businesses alone is a major barrier for many people.
4. You can scale without risk
Want to take on 5 clients? How about 10? how about 100? whatever you decide to do, you have the ability to scale without taking on major debt, liability or risk. For many types of business scaling up means risking losing everything because of the need to roll the dice each time a new location is opened, branch office is opened or employee is hired – not with this business, since development is being done by someone else (us) you can scale without worry.
5. You don't need partners
Many times would-be entrepreneurs want partners and find them out of a desire to build a business with someone else and it works out just fine, however for many others this isn't the case. Many unfortunately partner out of the necessity to share financial responsibilities early on in developing their companies only to find down the road that the person they partnered with was not a good choice – ending their business in ruin.
This is not the case with website sales, the cost of entry is affordable and the liability so low that almost anyone can launch on their own and sustain their business indefinitely, negating the need for partners.
6. You can pause at any time
The great thing about website sales is that you are under no pressure to constantly sell, this isn't a business with a massive overhead to carry, so you are free to pause the business at anytime and take a vacation, take a break or focus on something else – it won't go away, its not going to fall apart, you have the ability to start anytime you want.
7. You can get out clean
With a lot of businesses, going into them all things smell like roses and this leads to unrealistic optimism, debts are taken on to carry the load of the business, contracts are signed, leases are signed, clients are signed up for multi-year contracts – all of which become major liabilities if the business does not succeed. With website sales this is not the case, since there is no minimal commitment and minimal investment and minimal overhead, its very easy to decide to do something else and even sell client contracts to other businesses – no mess to clean up.
It's not often we write something negative – we try to stay
positive every time we write and we try to maintain objectivity as much as we
can. Obviously we are in the white label business and in the development
industry – we build sites, thousands of them, so of course we have opinions.
We also run an entrepreneurial program and interface directly with many dozens of individual resellers of our services on a daily basis. We hear their perspectives, the perspectives of people struggling to build businesses, make sales and juggle payroll at their companies on a daily basis.
The people we interface with live in the real world where they make sales to real businesses and need to put deals to bed quickly without a lot of drama. The clients of our resellers want sites put up quickly, they have the typical gripes, typical concerns and typical expectations of all web dev clients – they want the site to look good, function and they want it done FAST.
This is where we have to voice a direct opinion against so-called white-label-toolmakers. In case you aren't aware there exist numerous, shall we say "popular" or "mainstream" platforms that tout solutions that "Anyone can master" to build websites. These companies also run white label programs where they claim anyone can 'resell' their 'websites' to people – this is highly deceptive. You see, these companies do not actually build anything – except tools. They rely upon people paying money to gain access to their platforms and then utilizing their own talents to produce the actual websites.
In theory, this makes no sense and in the real world it spells absolute, abject disaster for probably 90% of their clients – gee, who woulda thunk it?.
The reason this spells disaster is that, barring the fact most people have the design talent of pet rocks, most people do not own, nor can they operate, the graphic design software necessary to produce high quality graphics. Most people do not have the slightest idea how to utilize the tools they provide and although they may put something basic online – it isn't fair to call it a website. No, most people who wade into these platforms wind up digging themselves deeper and deeper into a quagmire they cannot pull out of. How do we know this? We literally clean up these messes for a living, when we can.
There are fantastic platforms that exist, however, they require advanced training in things like vector graphics, video editing, graphic design and CSS – to produce great results. There is no canned solution that can produce 'great' - no matter the marketing hype.
To take things a step further, you have resellers who signed up for these platforms to attempt to build businesses atop them, only to struggle and ultimately fail when they realize they are responsible for the construction of the sites themselves, cutting deeply into their time and throwing them into a labyrinth of software and technologies that bewilders them. Assuming a reseller does know how to use the platform – what about the endless other issues that arise when untangling entrenched obsolete websites and upgrading them? Dealing with cpanel access on servers? Changing cname records? Getting email moved over? - on and on and on this stuff goes.
We consider ourselves a true white label provider, our partners come to us, get a quote from us – a hard quote that doesn't fluctuate – and then, if they sell the deal, pay us and we do the work – all of them. We design, develop and deploy sites from scratch, test on all platforms and perform security and maintenance as necessary to keep the sites live. This is what a white label development company can and should do and this is what a business can be built upon.
If you consider the toolmakers, consider using the tools.
Entrepreneurs are naturally people drawn to adventure, they are go-getters, they are people who have goals, ambition, vision. These attributes fuse together and get behind or perhaps more aptly put, underscore, something else - dreams.
Dreams are what we strive FOR they are the WHY the dream is
the end-place, the status beyond where we are now, they are what we seek - and
sometimes find. Dreams are healthy, dreams are good, dreams motivate, inspire
and keep us going forward. Fantasies on the other hand are something different,
something sinister and something that all of us need to be aware of.
The difference between a dream and a fantasy is that dreams can be accomplished, they are plausible, they have potential; Fantasies are neither plausible nor potential, they are imaginary, illusory and fantastical - they are not reality. When fantasies become reality - it's a miracle, when dreams become fantasies - it's a tragedy.
How come fantasies are so destructive?
The destructive influences of fantasies come in a wide variety of forms, if a person is deluded into thinking that they will earn 1000,000.00 a month in six months, they might second mortgage their home today, they might max out credit cards they cannot repay, they might do all sorts of things based upon this idea - things which cannot be undone. If a person believes that they will make 500 sales a month based on phony arithmetic than they may focus on building an infrastructure - while sales don't get made to support its costs. We could go on and on, but the fact is, fantasies, delusions, false expectations - call it what you will, carry the potential born in them.
The way to combat false expectations and to win every single time is to keep a grounded perspective upon things, to always look at what IS concretely a fact and to not let your hopes mutate into facts until such a time as their seeds have germinated and born the fruit of reality - you cannot turn anticipation into fact just because you want it bad enough. Being enthusiastic is a great thing, we all need it, we need motivation to get us up every day and fight the good fight, its great to be excited about what we do, we are excited as well, but keeping a balance is key.
Having spoken on this subject to some people, some say that this limits their potential, that it makes them feel boxed in, they might accuse us of putting a cap on their ambition - this is categorically false; Far from putting a cap on someone's ambition, what we suggest is that dreams are not fixed places, they change, once attained new dreams take their place - we can always climb higher, but we need to always respect gravity.
To all our partners are out there, keep yourself focused, keep grinding, keep working and keep selling - you will accomplish more than you know if you stay the course and work building your businesses brick by brick.
At our business we are in the unique position of having a close relationship with our many partners, this one on one relationship gives us key insights into what works and what doesn't and we're tireless in trying to pass this information onto everyone else, that is precisely what I'm going to do right now.
Over the years we've seen many strategies attempted by members, some working some of the time, others working most of the time but rarely do we see a strategy work nearly 100% of the time - except for this one, it does, so read carefully.
We call this strategy the "Give-to-Get" or GTG for short, basically what this strategy is, is a new take on a rather old tactic we've advised partners to use for many years and here are it's steps, broken down for you:
1. Find a local organization or business in need of a website
2. Approach them and play "Inside baseball" with them, let them know you'll give them a site at-cost in exchange for them helping you to market.
Now, in case it didn't stand out for you, the operative part of this strategy is 'helping you to market' - I purposely left that vague, because it is vague, because you are free to broker any type of arrangement you want, need or desire to help market your business.
Now here is where it gets fun, assume you find a business, get them setup with a website at-cost, now you have to decide how to get them to help you market, how should you? Well, let's look at the obvious stuff first:
1. Get them to agree to act as a telephone reference
2. Get them to make you a YouTube video
3. Get them into your literature - testimonials
You can even go further and get them to post positively from their account to your social media account.
What about the not-so-obvious ways you can get your new friendly client to help?
1. Share information about your business to their facebook friends, twitter followers, linkedin contacts
2. Get them to email their database (if they are B2B) pitching how great your business is.
3. Get them to give you direct referrals - something 90% don't do!
How much business could this drum up for you? You would probably be shocked by it. Research has shown there are six degrees of separation between all humans alive on earth, getting just 1 business to let you give them a website at-cost and then utilizing that relationship to get them to market for you can literally change your business.
If one give away like that ends up getting you 3 or 4 or even 5 or more sales, imagine what 2 or 3 give aways could do?
I am not suggesting you chronically give away free websites, but what I am suggesting is that, as a new partner with RD, you should consider this strategy - it works the most often of anything we've seen.
In today's world, as a leader, you need to do a whole lot more than just throw together presentations that feature you showing off your vocabulary. You need to know the nuts and bolts of what you do, and you need to set goals that help you reach your objectives. It's best to focus on what you need to do get one up on your competition and think about how you are going to execute the plan that makes it a reality. You are a leader, not just a representative, and when times get tough, you need to dig deep and find the inspiration, passion, and drive to discover outside-of-the-box solutions.
Here are some tips that will get you in the right mindset and onto the correct path that every successful leader should be walking.
Look At The Big Picture, Always
While others are busy scurrying around worrying about insignificant details, you should always be looking at the bigger picture. Great leaders look at the ups and downs of any situation and are good at making connections that others don't. Pulling back emotionally and taking all sides of a matter into consideration before making a decision are the hallmarks of an excellent leader.
Simplify Everything
Some people are good at making the easiest of tasks complicated. That is not you. As a leader, you should always be making sure that the standards of your business are met by taking the simplest path, possible. Produce quality, always, but simplify the process that creates it, as often as possible.
Always Have Goals In Mind
Never take on unnecessary tasks and spend exorbitant amounts of energy on them. A leader always has a set of goals they are following, and there should be a reason for everything you are doing. No loose ends; no waste of energy or resources. Your reward should be like a bonfire lit up ahead that is guiding your every action. Always know how what you are doing will benefit your business and yourself, and stay focused only on strategies that will help you achieve your goals.
There Is No Such Thing As Perfect
You can run around like a chicken with its head cut off for days on end and weeks at a time if you are always chasing perfection. A good leader knows that there is no such thing as perfect and that there will always something that can be improved. While it is not a bad idea to improve things that can be, you must take action when it is time to take it. If you have a project or task that has come due, give it your best and fix whatever breaks down along the way.
There Are No Stupid Questions
One of the best ways to learn about something is to ask questions, and a knowledgeable leader is one who has the guts to ask questions when others are afraid to. If you want to stand apart from the rest, find out as much as you can about anything you are involved in. Successful leaders have a knack for digging to the heart of a matter and understanding every angle of it. They do this by asking questions.
Take Calculated Risks
Too many people who consider themselves leaders take the sit and wait for everything to come to me approach. While this may seem like a great idea in order to avoid complications, it also guarantees that you will never reap the big rewards. When taking risks, true leaders have already calculated the risk versus reward and know that it is worth the effort. If an idea or action fails, the downside is not so big that they can't rebound or try again.
Think Before You Speak Or Act
Good leaders distance themselves from a situation before deciding to speak or act. They reflect upon different people's emotions, perspectives, and thought processes before moving forward. Once they feel like they have as much of a complete picture as possible, they make their move. Until then, they gather more information.
Don't Think You Know Everything
No person is truly an island unto themselves, and two heads are almost always better than one. Real leaders know that they do not know everything, and they also recognize the strengths and talents of other people. One of the best actions that a leader can take is to put their ideas in front of others and have them comment on them. This can help expose flaws or other holes in their thinking they have missed. It takes humbleness to practice this on a daily basis, but the payoff can be monumental, in the end.
Wrap Up
It takes time to become a great leader, but with patience, perseverance, and adherence to the principles in this article, you will be well on your way!

Isotopes are variants of a particular chemical element which differ in neutron number, although all isotopes of a given element have the same number of protons in each atom. Isotope Variation Analysis (detection of adulteration in food products or the geographic origins of products using isoscapes) and Isotopic substitution (to determine the mechanism of a chemical reaction via the kinetic isotope effect) are the most frequently used application for isotopes.
Another common application for isotope is isotopic labeling, the use of unusual isotopes as tracers or markers in chemical reactions. Normally, atoms of a given element are indistinguishable from each other. However, by using isotopes of different masses, even different nonradioactive stable isotopes can be distinguished by mass spectrometry or infrared spectroscopy. For example, in 'stable isotope labeling with amino acids in cell culture (SILAC)' stable isotopes are used to quantify proteins. If radioactive isotopes are used, they can be detected by the radiation they emit (this is called radioisotopic labeling).
BOC Sciences provides wide range of services such as custom radioisotope and stable isotope labeling to support your regulatory, development or research programs. As one of the world's leading radiolabeling groups we have a reputation for excellence in synthetic chemistry enabling us to carry out the most challenging synthetic projects.
