How to Think Like Successful Entrepreneurs
By: Leonard A. Schlesinger and Charles F. Kiefer with Paul B. Brown
Excerpted from Just Start: Take Action, Embrace Uncertainty, Create the Future. Copyright 2012 Harvard Business School Publishing Corporation. All rights reserved.
When people write about entrepreneurs they invariably focus on their behavior: what Howard Schultz or Michael Dell did in building their companies.
If you take that approach, you probably would conclude that every single entrepreneur is unique, so there is little to be learned from studying them; you would have to be Howard Schultz to start Starbucks and Michael Dell to start Dell.
Enter our friend Saras D. Sarasvathy, professor at the University of Virginia's Darden School of Business. (We are huge fans of Sarasvathy's work.)
How Successful Entrepreneurs Think
Early in her work, she made a fascinating discovery, one that ran counter to the conventional wisdom. Sarasvathy studied serial entrepreneurs, people who have started two or more companies successfully.
But instead of looking at the behavior of entrepreneurs -- which is indeed unique -- Sarasvathy focused on how they think. There she found amazing similarities in how they reasoned, approached obstacles, and took advantage of opportunities.
Yes, of course, there were variations. But the basic approach, as she understood it, was always the same.
In the face of an unknown future, entrepreneurs act. More specifically, they:
1. Take a small, smart step forward;
2. Pause to see what they learned by doing so; and
3. Build that learning into what they do next.
This process of act, learn, build, as we came to think about it, repeats until entrepreneurs are happy with the result, or they decide that they don't want to (or can't afford to) continue.
Prediction Versus Creaction
When we set out to see if the way serial entrepreneurs think would work for everyone, we weren't looking to replace Prediction. There were two reasons we weren't.
- Prediction works really well when the future can realistically be expected to be similar to the past, and since we are advocating smart steps, it certainly isn't smart to discard something that works well in a specific situation.
- Sarasvathy's research shows that entrepreneurs continue to use Prediction effectively in the situations where it works well, that is, in the places where it is logical to assume that the future will be a lot like what has come before.
So, we were not looking to replace Prediction.
Rather, we wanted to know whether the logic entrepreneurs employ when they face the unknown -- we came to think of it as Creaction -- would work for everyone else when the future is essentially unknowable.
In other words, we wanted to know if Creaction could be used to complement Prediction in everyday situations that we frequently find ourselves in ("Can I convince the town to add a bicycle lane downtown?" "Will anyone buy what I have to sell, if I start a company?" "Would I be happy chucking it all to join the Peace Corps?")
We found that the entrepreneurial logic works in business and potentially elsewhere. You can use this way of thinking to complement the kind of reasoning you have already been taught -- an additional way of thinking that can help you deal with high levels of uncertainty no matter what kind of situation you face.
Three Steps to Creaction
What exactly is Creaction? Well, to start, it is based on acting and creating evidence, as contrasted with thinking and analysis.
Here's one way to think about that pivotal difference. A dancer dances. Substituting thinking for dancing doesn't work. If all you do is think, you end up just thinking about dancing. There is nothing to show for that thought.
Thinking is often a part of creating, but without action, nothing is created. This is true for even very intellectual, cerebral fields. For a task to be considered creating, you must publish, teach, or whatever. Daydreaming by itself is not creating.
How does Creaction play out in practice? How does it help us deal with uncertainty? The process has three parts, which repeat until you have reached your goal or decide you no longer want to.
1. Desire. Find or think of something you want. You don't need a lot of passion; you only need sufficient desire to get started. ("I really want to start a restaurant, but I haven't a clue if I will ever be able to open one.")
2. Take a smart step as quickly as you can. As you will see, a smart step has its own three-part logic as well.
- Act quickly with the means at hand -- i.e. what you know, who you know, and anything else that's available. ("I know a great chef, and if I beg all my family and friends to back me, I might have enough money to open a place.")
- Stay within your acceptable loss. Make sure the cost of that smart step (in terms of time, money, reputation, and so on) is never more than you are willing to lose should things not work out.
- Bring others along to acquire more resources; spread the risk, and confirm the quality of your idea.
3. Build on what you have learned from taking that step. Every time you act, reality changes.
In other words, when facing the unknown, act your way into the future that you desire; don't think your way into it. Thinking does not change reality, nor does it necessarily lead to any learning.

Michael Ignatieff will release an election platform on Sunday that offers a stark contrast between the Liberal view of a more socially compassionate if higher-taxed Canada and the Conservative emphasis on boosting the economy.
Called "The Family Pack," the platform will embrace themes that aim to prove the Liberals are offering not simply a free ride, but a way forward for strapped families seeking to balance the needs of students aiming for college with those of the elderly in need of care.
The catch: These commitments, which Mr. Ignatieff has said are "fully costed down to the last dollar," would lead to significantly higher corporate taxes, which the Liberals believe would generate up to $6-billion in additional revenue.
The platform will also reveal as-yet-unannounced plans to roll back Conservative spending priorities. Expect the Liberals to propose less money for prisons, more for daycare.
The Conservatives, whose March budget proposal is, in essence, their entire platform, will argue that the Liberals are offering unaffordable baubles while seeking to undermine Canadian businesses and putting jobs at risk. Voters will decide on May 2 which priorities matter more to them.
Here are the pillars of the Liberal election platform, and what to expect within them.
» The equivalent of unemployment insurance for someone who must suddenly stop working to care for a family member;
» A tax credit for lower- and middle-income earners who look after a family member in need of care. Both initiatives combined will cost $1-billion.
» $500-million, annually growing to $1-billion after four years, cost shared with the provinces, to create new child-care facilities and spaces.
» A $700-million boost to the Guaranteed Income Supplement to lift the lowest-income seniors out of poverty.
» A program to allow Canadians to increase their contributions to, and benefits from, their Canada Pension Plan.
» $1,000 per year for four years - more for students from low-income families - to help defray university and college tuition costs and expenses. Total cost: $1-billion.
» While preserving existing levels of immigration, among the highest in the world, Liberals would raise the caps on family-class immigration, allowing more new Canadians to bring over relatives.
-- The Liberals would scrap Conservative plans to detain refugee claimants who arrive en masse by boat.
Foreign Policy
» The Liberals would restore what they believe is Canada's diminished standing in the world through a renewed emphasis on multilateral engagement, peacekeeping, commitment to the United Nations and action against global warming.
» A "People's Question Period," in which Mr. Ignatieff and his cabinet would take questions online every week.
» Greater independence and resources for the Parliamentary Budget Officer.
» Cut carbon-dioxide emissions through a cap-and-trade system to reduce industrial and energy-industry emissions.Report Typo/Error

Logitech Illuminated USB KB has problems on some systems
Just passing this along from my recent experience in case someone else is wondering what's going on with their system after attaching one of these. After plugging in the KB, all ran great...until I re-booted...
The Logitech Illuminated USB KB has a problem with the BIOS on some PC's. I noticed that during a reboot, the BIOS hung for about 2 mins & I was unable to access it with the F keys. After this it would start Windows normally and the KB worked fine.
After some research, it basically boils down to that it doesn't play well with the BIOS of some PC manufacturers (Dell being one of them). The hang up is when the BIOS is trying to initialize the KB. From what I saw on some posts, this has been a problem for about 3 years now. Logitech & PC makers are playing the "blame game".
Logitechs suggestion is to enable legacy USB support in the BIOS. However, as I said earlier, the F keys don't work during the hang so you'll need to switch KB's, and from what I saw on various posts, this doesn't always work. Mine was already enabled to do this, and the same problem persisted.
I thought about this after I ordered another KB & returned the Logitech, but I wonder if the problem would have been solved by connecting a PS/2 USB adapter. I'll have to try that if the next KB has the same problems.
Anyway, if you're thinking of getting this for Christmas for yourself or someone else, best to research it online to make sure the PC won't have any problems with it.

Many stories and books have been written about George Washington. When the American colonies fought for their freedom, George Washington led the soldiers against the British. When the brand-new country needed a leader, Washington served as its first president.
The legend of George Washington's honesty is just as famous as these true stories of bravery. It is called a legend because no one has any records to say that the story really happened.
Did young George Washington chop down a cherry tree? Maybe not. But this legend shows just how important it is for everyone to tell the truth.
Let's go back now to the time when George Washington was a young boy. He had just received a gift from his father that was, to him, the best present a boy could ask for.
What a fine day it was for young George Washington! At just six years old, he had his very own hatchet. George was proud of his new hatchet. It felt solid in his small hands. Its blade was shiny and sharp. George swung the hatchet through the air just to see the sun shine on it.
His father stopped him. "A hatchet is not a toy, George," his father warned. "It can do much harm if you are not careful. Always be careful when you use it."
George nodded at his father's words. His father was talking to him like a man. Owning a hatchet was a serious thing, indeed. George promised he would always be very careful with it.
Once he was outside, though, George felt more excited than serious. His family's farm seemed full of things to cut. George started testing the hatchet's sharpness in the fields.
First George tested his hatchet on a row of weeds at the edge of the cornfield. It sliced through their thin stems. The row of tall weeds became a pile of cut weeds. George smiled. He took aim at the thicker stalks of the corn plants.
Whack! Three cornstalks fell with a rustle and a crunch. George stepped back, startled. He looked at his hatchet with a new respect. His father was right. He would have to be careful.
Then George saw that an ear of corn had fallen to the ground. It was even thicker than the cornstalks. George's hatchet sliced the corncob in half with no problem.
Not far from the cornfield, George's father tended to his fruit trees. His father was proud of the sweet apples, peaches, and pears that the trees gave his family. He kept the trees' branches trimmed, and watched them for any sign of sickness.
Mr. Washington gave extra attention to his youngest tree. It was a cherry tree, and it had come from far away. The cherry tree had been just a sapling when Mr. Washington planted it. Each year, Mr. Washington watched it grow stronger.
This year, there were blossoms on its branches. Perhaps, he thought, it might even give fruit. Mr. Washington thought of the fresh cherries they could pick.
Then he thought of the cherry pies Mrs. Washington could bake with the sweet cherries. He smiled to himself as he gave the cherry tree a pat.
George ran up to Mr. Washington as he walked back to the house for supper. "This hatchet works well, Father," he said.
His father smiled. "Yes, I've seen you using it."
"Thank you again, Father, for such a wonderful gift," said George as he ran inside to get ready for dinner.

I used to believe that.. If I worked hard enough, if I showed I was dedicated enough, my chef would naturally look out for my personal growth. That it would come naturally, in its own place and time if I was patient enough. Now I know differently.. that.. You don't have to give everything you've got. And that.. my chef doesn't dictate my growth. I do. And if that means not giving my 110% at my current jobscope in order to have something left to think and see something outside of my jobscope.. then so be it..
Maybe.. it sounds like an excuse for being lazy. But you know what.. I'm not gonna sacrifice my life for a chef who sees me as nothing more than another cog in his replaceable machine. And trust me, I have been that girl. Who is here earlier than you. Who is here during split shift. Who goes back later than you. Or at least.. not until a find a chef worthy of giving my everything and more.
So I guess.. it's a bittersweet goodbye to my second home Les Amis. It has truly been a glorious year.

New toy made me boy racer
With surprising room, there's little dinky about the new Fabia RS, the fastest production car that Skoda has ever produced, says Campbell Spray
THERE'S something rather nice about being asked to test a small car that has a blue body and white roof. It's like being reduced to a Dinky-sized toy and I can run all around the carpet pretending to be a police car and frighten the dog, cats and my favourite teddy bear with its missing right eye.
So I regressed very fast when I approached the Skoda Fabia RS, which is powered by a 180BHP 1.4 TSI direct injection petrol engine and is the fastest production car the company has ever produced.
It accelerates to 100km/h in 7.3 seconds on the way to a top speed of 225km/h. This is very quick and my passenger, who interestingly had also been reduced even more to dinky size, complained of whiplash when we shot across the floor on the way to the toy cupboard and our afternoon tea.
But back to the real world. When the new Fabia came out a few years ago it was the first Skoda for some time -- both before and since -- with which I was less than impressed. It didn't quite look right and it only scored a very ordinary pass for its driveability.
Since then I have tended to shun the car, preferring to drive the impressive Yeti, incredibly competent Octavia and the very well-named and mightily big Superb. The Roomster is -- let us say -- interesting.
However, the Fabia RS has made me slightly reassess my critique. For although the basic model doesn't have all the gizmos, power and driving characteristicswith which the RS is loaded for its €22,890, it's still a roomy, well-built car. Nothing special, mind, but very adequate, and prices for the very basic model start at €12,535. However, there is also a Fabia Sportline model with some of the more superficial elements of the RS, as well as sports suspension, with prices starting at €14,610.
The performance of the RS itself is achieved thanks to dual-charging via a turbocharger and mechanically driven Super Charger. The transmission is equally advanced and uses the VW group's very well-tested seven-speed DSG twin-clutch automatic box which allows for extremely effective gear shifting in either automatic mode, which I preferred, or via paddle shifts located behind the steering wheel.
It was a lovely car to drive. responsive and with a very firm grip on the road. Perhaps too firm for some as you do feel that you become intimately connected to very abrasion on the road's surface. But go back to dream world, put these thoughts out of your mind and pretend you are gliding across the carpet.
The interior may not be sporty enough for some and the seats don't give enough leg support to smaller people even when not in the Dinky-mode. Yet it was good to be driving a petrol car again and I was happy with the consumption. Skoda claims that you can get a combined figure of 45.6mpg, but that is rather optimistic. However, emissions aren't that way off at 148g/km. This gives a road tax of €302 which is either double or treble every other Fabia.
Maybe the RS brought out the latent boy racer in me but I so enjoyed my time in it. The price is hard to beat as well.
A lot of fans of the previous Fabia RS aren't pleased that the firm has ditched the diesel engine which had more mid-range power but I rather liked the new version.
This diesel thing is too all consuming.
I was happy in Toytown. Now I need my afternoon nap.

text: SAN FRANCISCO -- Jim Harbaugh said he did not need the reassurance of seeing what he saw Thursday night from his backup quarterback.But the fact Colin Kaepernick looked in complete control in the 49ers' 35-3 victory over the San Diego Chargers carried a little more weight than a typical exhibition finale."Knowing was against their starters makes you feel a little better about it," Kaepernick said.The 49ers scored touchdowns on the Chargers' starters on the first two possessions of the game, including Kaepernick's 32-yard scoring pass to tight end Delanie Walker.Kaepernick demonstrated his tremendous arm strength when he rolled left and hit Walker along the left sideline. Walker broke a tackle attempt from strong safety Atari Bigby to get into the end zone.In the second quarter, Kaepernick hit A.J. Jenkins on a 12-yard touchdown pass after buying time with a roll to his right.Kaepernick completed 12 of 18 passes for 158 yards and two touchdowns. His passer rating was 131.2."Tonight, I felt like I went out and just played," Kaepernick said. "This preseason I felt more and more like that. Tonight was the first time I really got to go out and cut it loose and see what plays I could make."Quarterback Alex Smith took the first five snaps of the game -- all handoffs -- before handing off to Kaepernick. Smith is firmly entrenched as the starter, and Kaepernick showed there's reason to have confidence in his ability as the undisputed backup."That's not a new feeling," Harbaugh said. "It's something we've been comfortable with now for months, the course of this whole offseason. All of our quarterbacks. We feel like all four can play in this league for a long time."Josh Johnson, in a battle with Scott Tolzien for the No. 3 job, enjoyed his best performance of the exhibition season. He completed 9 of 14 passes for 125 yards and two touchdowns for a passer rating of 132.4.Undrafted rookies Nathan Palmer and Garrett Celek scored on Johnson's touchdown passes of 51 and 3 yards. Palmer took a quick hitch and outran the Chargers' defense for his third-quarter touchdown.Meanwhile, Tolzien completed just 3 of 8 attempts for 42 yards and an interception.When asked if it's possible the 49ers could keep all four quarterbacks on their 53-man roster to open the season, Harbaugh answered, "Yes, it's an option."General manager Trent Baalke will have to make that call by Friday, 6 p.m., the NFL deadline for teams to trim rosters from 75 players to 53.The 49ers relied on their backups Thursday, and as a result should be near full strength for the regular-season opener Sept. 9 at Green Bay. The 49ers did not play any of their defensive starters. Outside linebacker Aldon Smith, who has not played since sustaining a right hip bruise in the first exhibition game, could have played, Harbaugh said.Running back Frank Gore did not play, and the team held out wide receivers Michael Crabtree, Randy Moss and Kyle Williams, along with Ted Ginn (ankle) and Mario Manningham, who attended his grandfather's funeral.The backups -- offensively and defensively -- stepped up. And Harbaugh said the decisions on the 53-man roster will be even more difficult based on the performance of players up and down the roster on Thursday:--Will Tukuafu started at left defensive tackle. He also played fullback on seven of the 49ers' snaps on their 11-play opening drive. He cleared the way for Anthony Dixon on a 1-yard touchdown run, which Harbaugh called "probably one of the best isolation blocks I've seen at the goal line."--Linebacker Michael Wilhoite saw his first action on offense, as he played several snaps in the second half at fullback. He also had two tackles on defense. "He's physical," Harbaugh said. "He has athleticism to adjust in tight spaces. He's smart, plays low, plays quick. He hasn't has as much training as Will but he's capable of doing that."--Safeties C.J. Spillman, Trenton Robinson and Darcel McBath combined end the Chargers' first two drives of the games with turnovers. San Diego's first-team offense played two possessions. Spillman stripped tight end Antonio Gates of the ball after a 13-yard reception. Robinson scooped up the fumble and returned it 22 yards. McBath entered as an extra defensive back for his first snap of the game and he intercepted a Rivers pass intended for Malcom Floyd.--Jenkins led the 49ers with four receptions for 59 yards, including his 12-yard touchdown pass from Kaepernick. "It's a real good thing to get in a rhythm and just playing ball like I was in college," he said. "I was having a great time."--After the 49ers waived third- and fourth-string centers Chase Beeler and Jason Slowey this week, they started working guard Joe Looney at center. Looney entered the game at left guard, and moved to center in the second half. He had not played center since his sophomore year of high school, he said.--Running back LaMichael James had an up-and-down day. He carried five times for 27 yards and averaged 30.0 yards on two kickoff returns. But he lost his fight to the Candlestick winds while attempting to return punts. He bobbled one punt and muffed two others. He recovered both of his fumbles.

wikiHow to Order Fresh Salmon in Seattle
Salmon is a type of fish that is rich in omega-3 fatty acids. This makes it a great food for individuals who are interested in the treatment and prevention of cardiovascular disease, stroke and other similar conditions. Some of the best salmon in the world is caught in Puget's Sound, a waterway that runs alongside Seattle, WA. By keeping some basic tips in mind, you can order fresh salmon in Seattle that is freshly caught and very healthy.
1Educate yourself about salmon.
- To order fresh salmon in Seattle, it is first important to learn how to recognize the product. Unlike other types of fish, which often are described with only one name, salmon can be identified according to its color, the water it was caught it or by another name. Some common examples of types of salmon available in Seattle, Washington include Pacific, Alaskan, red, pink or sockeye.
- Recognizing a healthy salmon is also important when ordering this fish. Fresh raw salmon should have shiny flesh, clear eyes, and should be odor-free. The scales of the fish should all be securely attached, and should easily reflect light and sunshine.
2Visit seafood markets.
- Seafood markets are a great place to order salmon in Seattle. While there are a number of large markets along the ocean piers, such as Pike Place Market, smaller markets can also be found further inland. Salmon can usually be found at a reasonable price at these markets. Consider going early in the morning for the best selection.
3Shop at grocery stores.
- Salmon sold is grocery stores is often pre-trimmed, making it a good option for those who do not have the tools necessary to trim their salmon at home.
- Cooked salmon should be firm to the touch and should flake easily with a fork.
4Order fresh salmon at restaurants.
5Those who do not wish to prepare the salmon at home can order it at a restaurant. Seattle is home to a number of seafood restaurants, many of which offer salmon on the menu. Speak with the waiter before settling on a particular item. Inquire as to the freshness of the fish, its breed and the date it was purchased. These questions can all provide detailed information as to the freshness of the salmon.
6Talk to locals.
7If you have visited the piers, grocery stores and restaurants and still are not happy with the salmon selection available, consider speaking with local Seattle residents. These individuals may be able to provide additional guidance as to ordering fresh salmon in Seattle.
Community Q&A

- Individuals who have never eaten salmon before should have an allergy test performed before consuming it for the first time. Although salmon allergies are rare, they are dangerous and should be treated as such. Most allergy tests can be performed in a doctor's office.

All About Cougars
CARE currently provides a home to 2 female cougars. One of them, Cassie, is becoming an internet sensation due to her popular "squeaks" on the social media app, Vine. And the other, Tawney, is pretty special too since she is Cassie's mom (and a really sweet girl). In celebration of our two feisty felines, we wanted to tell you a little bit about their amazing species!
The cougar (Puma concolor) is a cat with many names. They are called pumas, mountain lions, catamounts, Florida panthers, deer tigers, American lions, painters, and many, many others! In fact, cougars hold a Guinness world record as having the most common names of any animal. The reason they have so many names is that they have the largest range of any animal in the Americas. They have lived as far north as the Canadian Yukon and as far south as the southern Andes. The large range is due to their amazing ability to adapt to almost any environment. That also means that the people that live in all those different places have called the cats by many different names.
However, just because these animals have a large range, does not mean that they are not in danger. The wild cat conservation group, Panthera, says:
"Though the cougar is an adaptable and resilient cat, and occupies every major habitat type of the Americas, it was eliminated from the entire eastern half of North America and most of Patagonia within the 200 years following European colonization."
Photo courtesy of Panthera.org
In fact, as Cause an Uproar reports, by the 1970's U.S. cougars were only found in Florida and sparse pockets of the west. In more recent years more prey and better management has led to expansion and recolonization in the Midwest.
According to Panthera, the cougar is listed as "Least Concern" because it is so widespread. However, despite reports that cougars are increasing in portions of the U.S., the species is considered to be declining overall.
So what do declining numbers of cougars mean? Cougars are "umbrella" species used to identify and preserve wildlife corridors and natural landscapes, as well as keystone species vital to ecosystem health and diversity. A "keystone species" has a critical affect on it's ecosystem where their presence or disappearance determines the numbers and types of many other species in that environment. For instance, a predator like the cougar keeps the numbers of herbivores down. If that does not happen, then herbivore numbers explode and eliminate resources like different plant species and water sources. This, in turn, prevents other species (including people) from being able to find the resources they need to survive. The disappearance of a keystone species can literally destroy an ecosystem and many of its inhabitants.
If that is not reason enough that these animals are worth protecting, they are also amazing creatures! Did you know that despite their size, the cougar does not meet all of the criteria to be considered a "big cat"? The genus name Panthera (where the term "panther" comes from) means "big cat". Panthera is a genus within the Felidae family and consists of lions, tigers, leopards, and jaguars. Even though cougars can become larger than some leopards, they do not belong to the Panthera family at all. Instead they belong to a separate genus that is more closely related to your house cat than they are to a lion or jaguar. An easy way to tell if a big cat is a "Big Cat" is if the animal purrs or roars. All Panthera cats roar, like lions, but they can't purr. All non-Panthera cats purr (like cougars, cheetahs, and domestic cats), but do not roar! Cougars make a lot of other sounds too like screams, squeaks, meows, hisses, spitting, and growling.
Cassie purrs
Cougars are also amazing athletes. Cougars have been known to jump as high as 18 feet straight up into the air (Cassie will often hit the high roof of her enclosure) and jump as far as 40-45 feet horizontally. They can run between 40 and 50 mph too! They are excellent climbers, which help them avoid other predators and hunt in areas that their main competition, wolves, cannot get to. They also have huge paws, with their front feet being larger to help them land when jumping and hold onto prey.
Tawney's feet
Some other interesting facts about cougars is that they are typically solitary, only seen together for mating and when a female is raising her cubs (often called kittens). When baby cougars are born, they are covered in spots which they lose as they get older. Cubs tend to stay with their moms 1 1/2 to 2 years to learn how to hunt and take care of themselves. typically live 8 - 13 years in the wild. Isn't it amazing that most of the cougars living at CARE have lived to 17 - 20 years old!! That's almost double their normal life expectancy!
You can learn more about the amazing cougar and how some organizations are working to ensure their survival in the wild below.

According to the Norwegian media, Bjorn Helge Riise is a Lillestrøm SK player. In fact, according to a video interview on their own website, he's an LSK player.
But, according to Fulham's own website he still plays for the club. Screenshot below:
Perhaps this is just a technicality and the Fulham PR and web team are posting a release announcing his departure while simultaneously taking down his profile page. But, it also sums up Riise's time here, doesn't it?
For the past two seasons, it seems we were only ever reminded Bjorn was on the team when he was loaned out. He would continually make the "Who do you see leaving this transfer window?" post on all the message boards since 2010.
Signed in summer of 2009, there was a collective sigh that he was not the other, better Riise we had hoped to get years earlier. Ironically, this would happen a few weeks later when Hodgson signed David Elm, brother to the better Rasmus Elm.
In his first season with the club, Bjorn made 12 appearances in the league (including 5 starts) and 7 in the Europa League (starting every group stage match). He'll probably be remembered most for his wonderful work down the right wing in the Group Stage finale against Basel, teeing up Bobby Zamora twice in the first half. He would make a handful of league appearances later in the season thanks to the club focusing solely on the Europa League.
Under Mark Hughes, Bjorn was on the bench for the first nine matches, and made two substitute appearances. He would only make the bench once the rest of the season. In February of that season he was loaned out to Sheffield United in the Championship; only to see the the club be relegated at season's end.
This past season, the only time Bjorn saw the field for Fulham was in the early Europa League Qualifying rounds that took place over a year ago. In September he was loaned out to Portsmouth, wherein he played a total of 130 minutes in two matches. He returned to Fulham two months later in November. Coincidentally, Portsmouth would be relegated at season's end.
And so the Bjorn's story ends. Or has it?
Update 8/3: It's official.
In addition, the Club can confirm that Bjørn Helge Riise has joined Lillestrøm on a free transfer following the expiration of his contract with Fulham.
Timmy Gelles is a writer for Craven Cottage Newsround. A Fulham fan since 2006 who, unlike Rich, doesn't hope Hugo gets a haircut. E-mail him or follow him on twitter.

Proposed Land Swap Israel-Palestine 1993-2001
- Description
- This polygon datsaet represents Peace Now's interpretation of one of a number of potential land swaps discussed by American and Israeli civil servants during the Clinton Administration (1993-2001). The proposed land swaps were intended to help resolve the territorial dispute between Israel and Palestine via a two-state agreement. The polygon represents lands that what would be officially annexed by Israel according to one of the proposed solutions. This specific Israeli territorial acquisition leaves out the highly contested Isreali locality of Ma'ale Adumim in the West Bank.

Ok, there is no way in the world for me to make a top ten list and not mention my favorite tag-team of all time. With Eric and Parish, it wasn't really about deep lyrics or mind-blowing concepts (read content). All you expected were dope songs with crazy production and an easy delivery (read flow). Ever since they came out, I've been fascinated by their ability to trap me into a zone of unknown satisfaction, pulling me into a spell of simple "beats & rhymes". It just felt, and still feels, good to listen to EpMD. They were heroes I desperately tried to dress, act and sound like. "Strictly Business" was overwhelming- specially for that period of time where producers still looked for the right piece of equipment to work with. "So What Cha Saying" off their second masterpiece "Unfinished Business" will remain one of my favorite songs of all time. But to me, "Business As Usual" was the perfect album! They delivered 14 songs and not a single one was mediocre. Matter of fact, I could name you at least one track from all the six above-mentioned albums I have called on so far, that I really could not feel (read Album-filler). This was the definition of perfection at that time with balance, wit and charisma- from the first to the last track. LL gave one of his most memorable performances, "playing MC's like an old accordion" while P spit one of my favorite lines " Cause many often wonder is M.D. paid / You're God damn right punk, stay outta my way / Cause I clock G's while you clock Z's / And I don't smoke crack – I smoke MC's" (ask Kitsune, I'll be quoting those lines pretty often)… And yeah, they introduced K-Solo to the world (followed by Redman and Das Efx) and that's worth a mention for god's sake. What ever happened to them afterwards never mattered to me. EPMD gave me three classics and I have a hard time saying that about any other group. Can you?
8. Slick Rick-The Great Adventures Of Slick Rick
I know I'm taking you back with this one but hey: This is my list! If it comes to influences, I can't let Slick Rick out- no way Homie. And we might argue about this album finding its way into a top ten list of all times, but I know for a fact that this dude has touched "every" artist coming (releasing music) after him. Forget "The Show" and "La Di Da Di", although they were epic milestones at the face of our culture. Slick Rick was the original architect, the grand-master, the God of story-telling! Remember what I wrote about "G.Rap"? Well, this is the guy who taught him the cornerstones of his craft. "The Adventures…" was compelling and in a way confusing- at least now that I'm thinking about it!? He spelled "Children's Story" and "Hey Young World" (both very socially aware when you really pay attention to his words) along with x-rated tracks like "Indian Girl" and "Treat Her Like A Prostitute". Well back then it did not seem confusing at all, at least it didn't make me question the man's ethics. More than anything, the album was extremely fun to listen to and the production was surely ahead of his time (courtesy of Rick Rubin). But the most prolific attribute to underline, was Slick Rick's flow. He rode the tracks and sounded like he's sitting next to you, whispering his words directly into your ears. His British accent did the rest and though Dana Dane (I know I'm asking too much now) claimed Rick bit his style, no one on this planet seemed to care. "A Teenage Love" is one my favorites songs of all time (not only in Hip Hop) and I know the words to that song by heart- test me when you see me… I enjoyed his later work very much, although "Behind Bars" and "The Art Of Storytelling" flew under the radar, I think this album being released at that time, is my personal favorite. Now go ahead and do your research on Dana Dane…
9. De La Soul-De La Soul Is Dead
Oh I got you with another one- you didn't expect this one coming, right? Ok, here's my story on De La: These hippies (that's how they were called back then) released an album that changed my life! "Three Feet High And Rising" was sooo left field from anything- and trust me, this time I mean anything- that has been released before. I remember how I first heard "Potholes In My Lawn", sitting in front of my stereo asking myself if it was "cool" to like these guys!? Well, you couldn't diss them. They were original when originality actually counted, the beat was refreshing and the MCs could spit. They were just rhyming about something out of the box! And the first thing that I thought to myself was, "if these knuckleheads can rhyme, I can do it too!" And I did… So their album came out taking the world by storm with its depth and honesty and introduced us to the "concept-albums". Skits? Nobody has had done that before and the mastermind Prince Paul had me waiting for the next intermission, asking myself what the hell they're going to do next- it was fantastic. Every song sounded like an adventure ("Ghetto Thang", "Say No Go", "Buddy" and "Eye Know" just to name a few) and the journey didn't seem to have an end. And just when everybody was understanding their lingo and approach to the "Daisy Age", they dropped "De La Soul Is Dead" (and somehow they meant what they said!?). It was a mental exercise to even listen to that album- it was really hard 'cause it was nothing like "Three Feet…". It had a way darker and less bouncy edge to it and it wasn't too easy to comprehend. You think a group at the height of their success will reap the benefits- well not this cats from Long Island! They reinvented themselves with their second album!!! A bad idea for many of their peers at that time (not a bad idea for many of our peers right now) but De La pulled it off. From their extraordinary "Oodles Of O's" to their proclamation that their "Brother's A Basehead", the album offered everything you did not expect and
to me, it was more than bold and courageous. I have admired every De La Soul album from "Buhloone Mindstate" (another classic if you ask me) to "Stakes Is High" and their "AOI-Series". To me, they have managed to stay relevant and interesting and for that I salute them. It's just that "De La Soul Is Dead" hit me in my head when I least expected it and that's the reason it made my top ten…
10. GangStarr-Step In The Arena
Ok, I didn't pick no west-coast album- no "Chronic" and no "Doggystyle". This pick was a tough one but I couldn't let that one surpass me. I opened up shows for these guys about a billion times and I always loved the way they expressed the true essence of Hip Hop, using only two turntables and a mic on any stage. I have listened to every "Gangstarr" album excessively and once again it was difficult to choose from their top notch list of ensembles. "No More Mr. Nice Guy" sounded raw and uncut- almost unfinished (since it took them two weeks to do the album). Their later albums "Daily Operation" (loved almost every single track from that album- therefore I will not pick any specific one out), "Hard To Earn" ( "I hate fake MC's, they always act hard / But won't walk the street without they bodyguard") and "Moment Of Truth" were detailed, grass-roots and all so arduous to imitate. I never considered Guru as one of the best MCs but his chemistry to Premo's beats remains untouched. "Step In The Arena" influenced me in many ways. The Growth from their first album was so immense, so huge that you understood (in this case as a musician) what you certainly had to do to deliver the right goods. This time they had time to work on the album and you could hear in every second. "Form Of Intellect" sounded like listening to your father telling you: "And hey Son, life is more than having fun / So run and get some help with the problems that you face / Take a taste of the bass put your perspective in place". "Beyond Comprehension" was eclectic and smooth with lines like: " I can see dimensions of sound and light around my mic / Transmitting lyrics like teletype / Reacting to a beat in a whisper…" and so on. And the production was simply superb. Those of you who're reading this have at least 5 great Premo beats you love so I will not expound on him and his greatness. Besides, you'll only understand the true value of his timeless music, once you start digging for the original soundbites… Once again I think this was a perfect album from A to Z…
That's my list folks. I might wake up tomorrow and reevaluate my "numbers" but let me touch on some of those you're missing on my list. I think B.I.G was nice but I don't think he is the greatest of all time and no, "Life After Death" could've made my top 25 but it didn't make my top 10. Jay might be by now the greatest of all time and his "The Black Album" is most likely in my top twenties but his influence on me as rapper and a human-being was not that big. Maybe because I had developed by that time as an artist. And this is probably the reason you're seeing albums that were released prior to '95! I was still searching back then, only to find what I was looking for and am enjoying music by now (just take a few seconds- you'll get it)… I just love music.
And last but not least, I insist that you leave a comment! Hit me with your top ten, remind me of classics I might have forgotten to mention (B.A. is a regular here but I challenge my boy S-Boogie and that Shadyville dude to hit me with their lists of greatness). I'll be back with another list soon- maybe the honorable mentions. 'Till Then,

Although Geoffrey & Jennifer lived one mile apart growing up, ran in the same circle of friends, and attended the same college, they didn't "meet" until December of 2008. Undoubtedly, they crossed each other's paths many times without even knowing it.
In November of 2008, Geoffrey stumbled across Jennifer's Facebook page. He noticed their mutual friends and that they had grown up near one another. He sent her a friend request. She accepted, but it didn't occur to her where she knew him until a month or so later. She vaguely remembered him through a circle of friends in college. They immediately began corresponding via Facebook, on the phone, and eventually agreed to go on a date. On January 16, 2009, Geoffrey picked up Jennifer from her west Little Rock home and took her to Ristorante Capeo in downtown North Little Rock.
At this time Jennifer was teaching 4th grade and attending graduate school classes at night at UCA. Geoffrey was in his final semester of law school, preparing for graduation and the bar exam. Though they were busy, they made time for their blossoming relationship, even if it meant studying beside one another at San Francisco Bread, Co.
On weekends, they would both take a break from working to go for drives. They would swing by Starbucks, grab a coffee, and drive all over Central Arkansas. They never got out of the car, but sipped their coffee and discussed their futures as they looked at houses and scenic views. Eventually their futures began to blend together as they took those weekend drives. When they were in his car, there were no books to study, papers to grade, outlines to write, or places to be. Those drives are some of their fondest memories.
After months of studying, working, and staying busy, Geoffrey and Jennifer proved they could make it through busy, stressful times together.
On Christmas Eve 2010, Geoffrey took her out for their routine drive with coffee before the holiday festivities would begin. They ended up at the Arkansas River, on a boat ramp, talking about where they were headed in life. It was then that Geoffrey got down on one knee–on the bumpy boat ramp–and asked her to marry him.
They wed on May 21, 2011 in a quaint ceremony overlooking Little Rock in the Pinnacle Room at the Peabody Hotel.
18 months later, Jennifer and Geoffrey were given a welcome surprise – a positive pregnancy test! And on August 6, 2013, they welcomed Harper Elaine Neal into the world. All 6 lbs, 11 oz. of her.
The Neal family is expecting another addition to the family in March of 2016 — this time a little boy.
Geoffrey practices law in Little Rock and Jennifer still teaches, but this time she only has one student – Harper.
The Neal family seeks God's guidance in their relationships, and treasures their precious love for one another.

SAN DIEGO ---- Carlos Quentin is in a positive state of mind even as he finds himself in a precarious position.
The veteran outfielder would love to return to the Padres' lineup immediately. But he doesn't want to risk inflammation in his surgically repaired right knee, and is content with making sure he heals properly.
Quentin, who had a tear in his knee repaired and several loose bodies removed in a March 19 surgery, will take the next step in his rehab on Sunday when he begins to hit off a tee in the batting cage.
In his eagerness to swing a bat, Quentin has resorted to swinging in the cage while seated on a stool.
"I'm on track," Quentin said. "I want to be out there, but I need to make sure I'm ready to be out there.
"Everything has gone great."
Padres manager Bud Black said Friday that Quentin has progressed well. But the Padres still believe that his return date will be close to May 1, as the suggested rehabilitation time is 4-6 weeks.
"The work continues to intensify," Black said. "He's getting closer to that date."
Volquez starting Tuesday
With Tim Stauffer on the disabled list, the Padres will skip the fifth spot in the rotation and start Edinson Volquez in Tuesday's series opener against the Arizona Diamondbacks on regular rest, Black said. Volquez allowed three runs (two earned) in five innings in the Padres' season opener on Thursday afternoon.
Though the rotation hasn't been set beyond Tuesday's game, the Padres won't need the fifth spot in their rotation until next Saturday if Black elects to keep his pitchers on regular rest.
"It also gives us flexibility with the bullpen," Black said.
Anthony Bass is the leading candidate to handle the fifth spot in the Padres' rotation until Stauffer returns. Micah Owings, who pitched 3 1/3 scoreless innings on Friday, has made 68 career starts in the majors and is also a candidate to start.
Cashner hits 100
Andrew Cashner didn't think he had his best stuff in his Padres' debut on Friday night.
Try telling that to Los Angeles Dodgers hitters, who saw two 100-mph fastballs among the 12 pitches Cashner threw in a scoreless inning. Cashner walked the first batter he faced, but that was the only blemish of his first regular-season appearance since arriving in the Jan. 7 trade that sent Anthony Rizzo to the Chicago Cubs.
"It went good," Cashner said. "I didn't work ahead, didn't really command my fastball, which I did a lot this spring. But I think it was just good to get out there and get the first one out of the way."
Et cetera
San Diego State men's basketball senior forward Tim Shelton threw out the first pitch before Saturday night's game. Shelton and the entire San Diego State team were honored in a pregame ceremony. ... Padres relievers have allowed five hits in 27 at-bats with six strikeouts in the team's first two games. ... The Padres wore their new blue alternate uniforms for the first time.

That was fun! :arghh:70 mph, right front tire goes, car is shaking, speed rapidly decreasing, and I'm frantically trying to get over to the side of the road. I didn't crash or wet my pants! YAY me!!! So I was in Brian's car. He was home with the kids. I called him, he loaded up all the kids and came to rescue me. Changed the tire on the 86th street off ramp, while it was 20 degrees yesterday, with cars speeding by us. He did it and never complained once. About the tire or about what I had just bought at the Coach store at Jordan Creek.

Loan Sailor Rescued Off Portland Bill
1:58pm 7th October 2014
Weymouth lifeboat crew have helped rescue a sailor who'd spent 12 hours drifting at sea.
Portland Coastguard Helicopter was also involved in a search for the loan boat last night, which was eventually spotted 18 miles off Portland Bill by a British Naval Vessel, HMS St Albans.
Weymouth lifeboat Ernest and Mabel picked up the man who was confused and disorientated.
He was checked over by paramedics and was said to be well apart from suffering from the effects of the cold.
Andy Sargeant, Coxswain of Weymouth all-weather lifeboat, said: 'We launched the lifeboat at 3.45am, and were on scene by 5.10am.
'The waves were about 2.5m and the trimaran was listing quite heavily. The man was confused and disorientated as you would expect, given the length of time he'd been there.'

Is this not a contradiction? Intention of the law maker to give equal right to the daughters from the commencement of the Act i.e.9.9.2005 is defeated. Please clarify.

Zori Trailer (2013)
"On an island a flip flop is a terrible thing to lose" 29 September 2013 Drama, Family 9 mins
A young Marshallese boy, Labro, wakes up one morning anxious for his grandmother to fulfill her promise of buying him ice cream. She agrees, but demands that he do some work first, commanding him -- with a sweep of her arm -- to "clean up all the garbage everywhere." As Labro goes out the door of his rustic shack, he realizes that one of his zoris is missing. His grandmother, angry because he has yet again lost one of his flip flops, gives him an ultimatum: "Do not come back to the house until you have zoris on both of your feet." So Labro begins his quest under the hot island sun to clean up 'everywhere' and to find his other zori...

text: First off, please don't blast me. This was not my idea. I am a full-time firefighter with a pretty successful lawn maintenance business. As is so often the case, I have a customer who lives in a half-million dollar home, is as nice as can be, but is just as cheap as they come. He and is family are from China and they have the worst case of "keeping up with the Joneses" I've ever seen. Well, last week his next door neighbor installed some Lowe's/Home Depot lighting in their front garden area. Basically five or six small lights shining up at the house, mostly the windows. Now, my customer has to have some as well. He knows his neighbor paid just under $200 for the set and really doesn't want to go much more than that, plus what I charge him for the labor. Finally the question: Should I just go ahead and get the same stuff from Lowe's or is there some other alternative. I look forward to the install and learning a few things, but is there anything better I can get from my suppliers (Lesco, John Deere Landscapes, etc.) but at a similar price. Thanks ya'll

I've been a couple of times now, and wish to go again before I move. They do a great job!
I'm a Unitarian by proclaimed faith, with strong Pagan leanings. I think we need more people who center their beliefs in the life experiences of the planet, if we hope to preserve it from human folly. I am happy to be more connected to oneness than to organized religion.. Let the wheel turn, let there be light to follow night, spring to follow winter. Let us all see a dawning in harmony.
I agree about the charm of this improbably storied movie, it's very enjoyable for anyone with poetry of mind or spirit. I'll just note that the comment about "mom" not knowing she had a child is covered by a sub-plot involving her father's total control freak behavior. It's there, but it's very subtle. A nice movie, one with a great deal of beauty.
The Mustard Seed on Maybank has been and remains one of my all-time favorite Charleston restaurants. Prices are reasonable, service always commendable, and the quality consistent. I enjoy introducing new people to Charleston by taking them there.
They didn't invent those lyrics, but they put them to great use! If you fancy unconventional bands at all, you owe it to yourself to see them! just leave room at the front for die-hard long-term fans, please!

The new record, "ONE FOR THE DANCEHALLS" is being printed as I write this. With record stores shutting down, record labels going under, it's no wonder that the rest of the music business world (except for some punk rock labels who knew long-long ago) is catching up to what Stag Records has been doing for years...BE INDEPENDENT! Big box stores such as Wal-Mart, Best Buy and Target only sell a small small portion of the music that's out there today. Where as Indie Stores (like Cactus in Houston or Waterloo in Austin) sell artists that are still even hard to find on-line. Look for us in Indie Stores as well as some of the big-box stores too. Why is it that labels keeping making CD's more expensive every year, then cut them down to damn near nothing???
We decided that since the country has a huge unemployment rate right now, that we needed to give the Hardchargers more bang for their buck. So we are putting together a JD Christmas Package that includes the new record on LP Vinyl, on Compact Disc, and download sheet with all the songs on it, PLUS a Holiday single CD called "Christmas In Jail," all for a lousy $25 bucks!!!
What made me do vinyl this time? Besides collecting wax for years & years, last Christmas my girl got me this great tweed portable 50's style flip-top record player online by CROSLEY RECORD PLAYERS (for under $100.00) And, I brought it out to the garage where I keep my hot rods and felt like I was about 12 yrs. old again!!! Sure, I have a nice turn table inside, but that's not the point. This one I could bring anywhere and I LOOOVE the way it sounds through the old tubes and the little speaker, just like it sounded when I was a kid. I got gifts last year that we're waaaay more expensive, but none meant as much to me as that damn portable record player!
Anywanker, if you don't care about handing your money over to corporate middle men, than you can PRE-ORDER the new JD record at STAGRECORDS.COM right NOW!
One more thing, doing the whole film thing and doing the Capt. Clegg persona has enabled me to be more independent. The new record I made is by far the MOST Honky-Tonk record I've ever done. Why? Because the film thing has supplemented my income enormously and now I can make any kind of record I want. "One For the Dancehalls" was inspired by the Solid Chrome Dancers who I see at the Broken Spoke when we play there. To quote Shotgun Willie, "you can't make a record if ya ain't got nothing to say." Well, being a Texas band leader on stage at probably the most legendary dancehall (Ernest Tubb, Willie Nelson, Bob Wills, Asleep At A The Wheel, George Strait...Willie just played a private there the other night!) in Texas that is STILL operating as a 2 step joint, I knew if I could come up with a batch of songs worthy of those people I could make a record that might stand the test of time once I'm dead and gone.
Anywanker, besides shooting a new video this week, we have shows. THURS. NIGHT we play THE BROKEN SPOKE in AUSTIN TX. at 9 where there's always a great crowd and we always play new songs.
FRI. NIGHT I'm proud to announce that we're playing (along with Larry McMurty's songwriter son, James) the party for the 25th Anniversary of the publishing of Larry McMurty's book "LONESOME DOVE" at the AT&T CONFERENCE CENTER on the UNIVERSITY OF TEXAS campus @ 9-11. And yes, there is a big dance floor. As some of you know, Augustus McCray from the book Lonesome Dove (played by Robert Duvall in the movie) is my all-time #1 fictional hero EVER. So this is a big deal for me to play this on the UT campus.
Ok, y'all. In the words of Augustas, "by God Woodrow...it's been one hell of a party"
Adios Amigos!
