I was in Madison on business for 2 nights and stayed at the InnTowner. The facility was nice, the breakfast was good, and I have no complaints about my stay. When I arrived at the airport after checking out of the hotel, I realized I had left my telephone behind. I called the hotel (on a phone borrowed from a kind passenger) and spoke to Emily Weiss at the front desk who made great efforts to find my phone in the lobby to no avail. She radioed Nick, who had driven me to the airport, and he pulled over to look for my phone as well. Finally, Emily contacted Fabiola Gonzales ,the Executive Housekeeper, who promptly went to my room and found my phone. The hotel took care of all of this in minutes... I was at a point where I needed to decide whether to return to the hotel to find the phone, taking a later flight, so Emily, Nick, and Fabiola's immediate responses were a God-send. Emily, the front desk manager, took my shipping and credit card information and even told me how much it would cost to overnight the phone to me via UPS.
Unfortunately, this isn't the first time I've left my phone behind, but this was definitely the nicest and most helpful group of people I've ever dealt with in finding it. Thanks to you all!

Postcard from "Boston Upswelling oXxxOooO"
I was curious about the news from the pending, new owners of the Aladdin Hotel in Las Vegas (that'd be Starwood Resorts and Hotels, through their Planet Hollywood operation):
Valley hotel exec is leaving
William T. Feather is headed to new hotel in Las Vegas
By Dennis A. Britton — The Desert Sun, July 22, 2004
RANCHO MIRAGE — In the third departure of a major valley hotel executive in a month, William T. Feather said this week he is leaving as general manager of The Westin Mission Hills Resort.
Feather, 43, has been named vice president of hotel operations, Las Vegas, by Starwood Resorts and Hotels. He will run the first-ever Planet Hollywood hotel, which will become the largest hotel in the Starwood group.
"This is an opportunity of a lifetime," Feather said of his new position. "To turn a brand into an entirely new concept is very exciting."
Starwood will spend $150 million to transform the former Aladdin Hotel, which opened in 2000, into the Planet Hollywood hotel, casino, spa and entertainment complex.
The Planet Hollywood restaurant will move from Caesar's Palace to the 35-acre site now occupied by the Aladdin…
That'd be the very same new manager of what is planned as the new Planet Hollywood that is to replace the Aladdin Hotel, the very place whose manager booted Linda Ronstadt off stage and off the premises, which new, pending Manager (Mr. Feather, above) says wants Linda Ronstadt and Michael Moore to appear as a stage act, with apologies all around.
He apparently had some help in that decision — managers and maybe sinisters, don't know — but, Ronstadt's manager made good phone with Starwood's manager and various pressures were applied or withheld, depending, and now there may be a new act in Vegas.
About Mr. Feather, he's got a busy Fall ahead of him. That'd be in Boston, Massachusetts.
Before he assumes his new position, Feather has been asked to temporarily run the Westin Copley Plaza in Boston during the Democratic National Convention next week. The Copley will be the headquarters for both the convention and the John Kerry campaign.
I realize that it isn't just me here who finds the Democrats more than a little shaky, haphazard even if not too irregular for the comfort of most people, but the Ronstadt stage diversions (and backstage, too, from what the rumors are) coupled with Moore's of worse proportions seems to be pushing the "I'm an American and you're not" so far as to be bombastic. What it indicates to me is that the Democrats are so disorganized throughtout society as to only be able to rally in any sort of unity based upon that which they "hate" and want to destruct — but I never read or hear about any plans. Same thing from these sort of performers on stages/on screens, who find a lot of fault and are apt at ridiculing others, but lack inhibition at distorting their art forms, their very genres. Moore especially is guilty of that, as are musicians (Ronstadt, Raitt) who use a performance venue to wax off about political views.
At least Dennis Miller makes it clear that he has opinions, that his performance involves his opinions, and his audience is never manipulated into listening to him perform a drum solo instead.
I read about the Bonnie Raitt comments made during her recent performance in Sweden, also. Lance Armstrong being spit upon afterward just prior to his win in France. Not like Armstrong did anything to encourage that, but I believe Raitt certainly did, as did Ronstadt and certainly as has Moore. It's not an issue in any audience's mind as to free speech or lack thereof, of creative expression or not, but of enjoying (or not) a performance that they were led to believe they'd receive when they bought their tickets and made their plans, spent all that travel money.
The issues are related: neighbors locally, neighbors across the Pond, either way: neighbors. Dumping your trash into your neighbor's yard is going to get you: (1.) increased friendship with people who like garbage in their yard; or, (2.) unhappy neighbors. And, either way, if you dump your garbage in your neighbor's yard, it isn't going to make you laudable or a role model when you come back home (unless that's your family value).
I'm jumping around in points here but the gist of it all today is that people don't buy concert tickets in London to hear Beethoven performed by the London Sympony Orchestra and feel pleased when a man with hand puppets comes on stage half-way through the two hours and starts spouting off about the nasty Monarchy. In the case of Ronstadt's comments in Las Vegas about Moore — she's apparently been making similar comments from other stages during other performances, but not before in Las Vegas — the manager was right on to show her the door, if for the overlooked reason that they didn't want any harm to come to her person afterward by a wayward element in the audience (who, in turn, were wayward after Ronstadt's comments about Moore, something I can understand).
I read that "The New York Times" wrote that the Las Vegas, Ronstadt audience members should have been shown the door instead of Ronstadt and once again the NYTimes misses the point of America: it's not about populism, it's about capitalism. A capitalist with a few extra dollars spends some of them on a ticket and some drinks, after buying into the marketed, advertised promise. Ronstadt using the venue to "share" her political barbs was equal to that hypothetical performer man with the hand puppets going all nasty about the Monarchy: people don't like it, they don't respect it and they can't stand it, in the case of a Las Vegas crowd and a few drinks later.
Bonnie Raitt can squeak by with applause for similar remarks in Sweden and elsewhere in parts of Europe where it's trendy to dislike the United States, but it doesn't mean she's going to fly with larger audiences back home.
The main thing about this is that the Left manufactures issue targets — and often uses the entertainment industry to do this — inorder to reinforce fears in the minds of others (and, apparently, in their own). By making inappropriate, socially tawdry comments on stage like these people have — in Moore's case, his stage is your local theatre screen, among other soapbox venues he's using — and then making faux complaints of outrage afterward about "free speech" and "rights of the performer" and such, they have a ReadyBakeOven moment all cooked up for distortion.
The "right to free speech" exists in description, function and purpose to prohibit government from censoring the speech by citizens that criticizes the government. So, an audience in Las Vegas, the popular culture, your neighbors, throwing in the towel and abandoning fandom isn't an issue of free speech, or infringement of free speech, but simply society exercising it's values, where and how they want to spend their money and who and what they find to be a sensible way to spend it.
Very few people like bummers or at least make a choice to participate in a bumming experience when we want to be entertained and most of us don't like spending our money on entertainment that genuinely creeps us out, brings us down, drives us to the point of irritation that we want to storm out and rip up our tickets and ask for a refund. People do that when they're fed up, beyond a point of tolerating some rendition, whatever.
Although Ronstadt and Moore on stage in Las Vegas might work for various managers and exhibitors, they'll quickly run out of liberals in Las Vegas to buy tickets. Bonnie Raitt is another story, since her audience has been a certain blue collar crowd up to this point, but I can't see it going on any further. All told here, however, the mix of these bitter opinions doesn't mix at all well with a date, dinner and drinks. It doesn't mix at all.

Over at Vulture, Matt Steiz gives a great and honest review of Frank Darabont's new miniseries Mob City, which stars Jon Bernthal. All in all, it seems that this will work out to be a fantastic and memorable series with many twists to keep us on the edges of our seats.
According to Steiz, Mob City is:
a new TNT miniseries set in gangster-ridden Los Angeles following World War II, is produced, written, and directed by Frank Darabont, who seems to have recovered nicely from having been pushed out of (or left) The Walking Dead in 2011. The six-part drama is based on Jon Buntin's excellent nonfiction book L.A. Noir: The Struggle for the Soul of America's Most Seductive City
Truly, has indeed been busy, this time with reviving forgotten tales of a bygone era in American history. It will be interested to see a modern take on everything that happened in those days, and how it will be presented to a generation that grew up in a time with different public heroes and villains.
The main character, Joe, is played by , who you will probably remember as Shane from The Walking Dead. His character is a former marine, which just returned from the Second World War (complete with all the mental and emotional baggage) and has now joined the LAPD. Steiz has a few words about Bernthal's performance:
Bernthal is watchable but for whatever reason never riveting. He gives the audience so little here that he's nearly impossible to relate to, much less read. He lacks oomph, and lack of oomph is a big problem when you're playing a guy who's essentially a series of blanks that will slowly be filled in.
In other words, not very impressed. However the fact that he may be hard to relate to may be due to the strong and silent type character that he plays on the show. Perhaps the coming episodes will give the character time to grow and change Steiz's mind.
Despite the criticism of Bernthal and some other actors on the show being cast against type, Steiz goes on to praise the sheer beauty of the show and the environment it has created through Darabont's vision:
But even when the momentum flags or the rhythm seems slightly off, the show's sheer gorgeousness is compelling, and it's clear that Darabont has a vision for this thing, even though we can't deduce every detail based on two episodes.
(Check out the full review here: vulture)
What do you guys think about Mob City? How is Bernthal doing as Joe? Share your thoughts!

Do people affect us, for our nature and way of life? I think so. How do I think about it the only feature of that is my it is my love for fashion. For my family it may seem vain, but it's a way of being and passion. I do not know where it came from in me, but is certainly not from a family that has an approach like most people, certainly not from friends, because I'm the only one in my group of passionate about this field. But I know how much you have learned from all of them. My family took care of would remember where I came from. Thanks to them I have a a good start, because the I live in the city, I don't need to rent the apartment and a lot of work in order to pay them back, but I can fulfill. Grew up in reportedly the one of the most dangerous districts of Poznan, but thanks to people of who surround me I know what is respect, how treated with friends and as enemies. I learned than any of them that how is well and we are happy, we should remember this moment and gather fistfuls of it.
As for the styling, it had to be a little vintage. In length skirt to the knee is very feminine and elegant. I feel it very well. I had problem finding appropriate top, I decided on a cream shirt. The photos were taken some time ago, unfortunately, the climate doesn't allow for sandals.

Someone put one on our fridge that read "Your comfort could keep me almost delirious." I loved the phrase so much, and that's the challenge! Use that line in a piece of work." This is the first challenge I've written… Takes place just after the Dark Lord "dies" in Godric's Hollow. Exactly 800 words, excluding notes.
Rodolphus followed his trembling wife into their bedroom. She looked like she could scarcely believe it had happened. He could scarcely believe it had happened.
"The Dark Lord… fallen… Christ, I can't…"Bellatrix asked. She shrunk onto their bed, her eyes wide with terror. "What are we going to do without him?"
The part of Rodolphus that hated his wife for lying with the Dark Lord wanted him to say I can think of a thing or two, but Bellatrix looked so fragile, so afraid, that he couldn't bring himself to taunt her.
"We'll manage. We'll find a way," he murmured, stroking her hair.
She jerked away from his caress. "Don't touch me!"
Anger flashed.
"Look at me, Bellatrix!"
She raised her eyes reluctantly to meet his.
"I'm your husband," he said, very slowly. "And I don't want to hurt you, but if I need to, to keep you focused on our cause, I can, and I swear I will."
"Is that supposed make me feel better?" Suddenly she looked more like the Bellatrix he knew. "And what would you know about the cause?"
"I know that if the Dark Lord saw you like this, he wouldn't spare you the Cruciatus curse!" Rodolphus cracked her across the face, not because he wanted to hurt her, but because he wanted to make her angry, make her show something. He wanted to shatter this fragile shell that had taken over his wife, to break it so that the real Bellatrix could come out.
"Comfort isn't your strength, Rodolphus," Bellatrix muttered mutinously, putting a hand to her cheek.
Bellatrix held his gaze for a long second. She tried to look defiant, tried to tamp down her grief. But the more she tried, the more the emotions gripped her, until she finally broke down in tears.
"I just–" she hiccoughed, but Rodolphus silenced her.
"Let me get you a drink," he said. "It'll make you feel better."
Bellatrix nodded weakly, rubbing tears from her eyes. Rodolphus took a bottle of firewhiskey from a cabinet, and handed it to his wife. She yanked the cork from it and took a swig from it.
Rodolphus waited while his wife drank. Then he took the bottle from her gently. Bellatrix protested quietly when Rodolphus pried the bottle from her fingers.
"Let me have some," he told her, and tipped the liquid into his mouth.
"I want it–"
"You'll get drunk."
"I want to–"
He put down the bottle and put his hand over his wife's mouth. "No you don't. You don't want to get drunk."
"I do–"
"You'll be sick tomorrow."
"Don't care–"
"You don't need the drink," he told her, sitting on the bed and drawing his wife into his arms. "You don't want the drink. You want to be comforted."
"If I do?" Her dark eyes shone with fresh tears, and her words were starting to slur. "Don't you think I've earned it? Rod, he's–"
"Don't think about it. You'll start crying again."
"I'm scared…"
"I know, love." He laid her back on the bed, and smoothed his broad, blunt hands over her face. "I know. Don't think about it. You can worry in the morning."
"Just one more drink…"
Rodolphus sighed, and handed her the bottle. Her hands shook, and it splashed over her face and breast.
"Let me," he said, sponging the firewhiskey off her, and he could tell that she really was miserable because she neither slapped nor hexed him. He was even brave enough to let his hand linger on the cold swell of her breast.
She shivered, and put the bottle aside. "Don't…"
"It'll make you feel better."
"It won't."
He ignored her, undid her robes, laid her damp breast bare.
Much as Bellatrix wanted to wallow in her misery that the Dark Lord was fallen, she couldn't help but take comfort in her husband's embrace. She knew that their marriage's general failure was more her fault than his, and she rarely regretted it, but it was good to be held by Rodolphus. He was kind, gentle somehow.
"I love you, Bella," he whispered, pushing her legs apart.
She sighed and shut her eyes.
"Feel better?" he asked.
She glared challengingly at him from under her mess of hair. "Do you expect me to?" Her voice was thin, but the familiar spark was back in it.
"I comforted you, didn't I?" Rodolphus smoothed a broad hand over her cheek and smirked. He had won and knew it.
"Alcohol and sex is comfort?" Bellatrix scoffed.
"Don't you feel better?"
"I feel drunk and sex-addled."
"But comforted."
Bellatrix shoved him off her. "Your idea of comfort," she sneered, "could keep me almost delirious."
"Better than misery, though, isn't it, my Bella?"
"I suppose it is."

Howard Johnsons at fishermen's wharf, santa cruz, ASSAULTED and ACCUSED OF BEING HOMELESS!!! Internet
While I was preparing breakfast for three, a very large man, maybe 6'4", 230#, dressed in blue jeans, levi shirt and jacket, and a levi hat, came out of a door, cleaned the counter and left. Five seconds later he came back, started cleaning the same counter, all the while huffin and puffin and mumblings
. I told him i would clean up after myself and he immediately start yelling"What's your room number" I wasn't going to tell him, and he kept yelling at me as he huffed and puffed back through the door!
three seconds later a man in a dress shirt and tie came out yelled, "what room are you in, what's your room number," over and over, an inch from my face! By this time I was quite flustered and while pointing the direction of our room, I said 405.
Well our room was 205 and suddenly grab my plate of food along with my wrists and started dragging me out the door, yelling you homeless people stay out! I got my hands free , threw the plate on the table and left for our room.
They saw me open the door and walk in.
Our car was park right in front of the office and the general manager never came out to apologize,
I'm pretty sure this is a serious offence and something should be done about Mr.Bipin Patel, gm., and his sidekick!
Worse part of this story is my 86 year old mom was with us and she's still very upset!

The Kumbh Mela is the "Festival of the Urn" that pours out the nectar of immortality. It is a great roving festival that has moved around India for more than four thousand years, erecting temporary cities along the Ganges River where millions of Hindu faithful gather to wash away their sins in the holy waters. The 2001 Kumbh Mela in Allahabad, India was the largest gathering of humanity in recorded history. It was not just the final Kumbh Mela in a 12-year cycle of festivals. It was the final festival of 12 cycles - the conclusion of a giant 144-year cycle, making it "Maha" Kumbh Mela, the Great Festival. This 144-year buildup of spiritual meaning made it a powerfully auspicious time for pilgrims to bathe in the Ganges. Even the planets and stars joined in, providing heavenly alignments not seen for 144 years. East joined West with the coinciding advent of the 21st Century in 2001. Thus, roughly 70 million people came from all over the globe to pray for peace and rebirth for self and the world, truly a meeting of ancient and future in a remarkable moment.
This beautiful documentary captures the landmark event and spiritual essence of the historic celebration.

From 2008 to 2012, as the nation began moving away from coal and toward green energy, the coal industry lost 49,000 jobs, "while the natural gas, solar and wind industries together created nearly four times that amount," says a county-level study by Duke University. Appalachia, particularly Southern West Virginia and Eastern Kentucky, as well as the Uinta Basin of Utah and Colorado and parts of the Powder River Basin in Montana and Wyoming, experienced the greatest job losses. The Northeast, Southwest, Midwest and West all benefited, gaining jobs.
Senior author Lincoln Pratson said, "Our study shows it has not been a one-for-one replacement. The counties that were very reliant on the coal industry are now in the most difficult position."
Analyst Drew Harer said differences in the availability of state incentives for renewable energy have had a major impact on jobs. He said, "States with incentives have more growth. The southeast is incentive-free, and there is almost no development of green energy there compared to other regions." (Read more)

Colin Montgomerie talks to Sky Sports about his senior tour ambitions
Colin Montgomerie told us he is relishing his return to competition after officially joining the Champions Tour.
By Paul Higham Twitter: @SkySportsPaulH
Last Updated: 29/05/13 12:29pm
The eight-time European No 1 turns 50 in June and will immediately hit the Champions Tour in America to take part in the Senior Players Championship in Pittsburgh.
Montgomerie says that commentating for Sky Sports at the Masters was a difficult job, given he is still so eager to be out there on the course competing.
His return to action is not far off though, as Montgomerie will celebrate his 50th birthday this year, and will waste no time at all in heading off to the Champions Tour.
Montgomerie has already officially signed up for the Champions Tour, and will appear in Pittsburgh before tackling both the US Senior Open, and the following Senior Open being held at Birkdale this year.
"I'm looking forward to the Champions Tour," Montgomerie told Sky Sports. "Well, I was looking forward to it until I saw Couples and Langer playing so well at the Masters.
"But I have joined the Champions Tour officially, my birth certificate was sent over to prove my age - I turn 50 June 23rd and on the 24th I'm over to America to play in the Players Championship so it starts in earnest straightaway.
"I've just got that one tournament in the diary so far and then the US Senior Open and the British Senior Open so it's all go. Our open is being played up at Brikdale this year which is a great course so I'm really looking forward to that one."
Being at Augusta and again not playing proved a frustrating week for Montgomerie, while watching fellow veterans Fred Couples and Bernhard Langer playing so well made him realise that it would be no picnic in the seniors.
"I was on the range at the Masters talking to a few of the guys and you do start to miss it,"Montgomerie added. "Looking in people's bags to see what they're playing with so you can commentate on it but at the same time it's difficult when you are wanting to play but can't.
"Langer and Couples were outstanding, playing so well in their 50s, but I'm just a youngster at 49 so I'll look forward to it. Freddie's in Hall of Fame next month with me, Langer's already there. Bernhard Langer's been a good friend for 20 years so I really look forward to getting out there and playing with them on the Champions Tour.
"And it's looking like you can play longer than ever before, especially because of the new equipment which is becoming better and the new technology will aid us as we get older - Langer is hitting the ball longer now than he ever did at 25!"
More from Monty
Monty on...
Long putters...
All four majors now have been won with it so the controversy continues, but it will be sorted out I do hope the PGA Tour abide by the R&A and USGA rules and everything will be fine and it will be banned January 1 2016.
Different major winners...
There's been 17 new winners in the last 18 majors and that's terrific for golf to be honest, you don't want the same winner every time. With new people winning these major events it's great for the game. It's harder than ever to win one now, the competition is improving all the time - you look at the likes of Westwood, Donald and Rose who haven't won one yet but it's getting harder all the time to win one.
Courses getting longer...
We have to be careful because lengthening a hole doesn't necessarily make it any better. A long par four, the green has to be adaptable to a long par four and not just make it longer as the green wasn't designed for that. But the main point here is that if we don't restrict how far the golf ball can go then we're in trouble as there's no option but to make courses longer.
Colin Montgomerie was speaking at the relaunch of De Vere Mottram Hall after the venue underwent a £6 million refurbishment. Go to www.devere-hotels.co.uk for more details.

All was clean, everyone was nice and helpful and the comp breakfast offered much more than we expected. Also got a great Internet price.

The Romancing Wisconsin series by Stacey Joy Netzel (that's me) kicks off with three heartwarming holiday stories to start the season right! Originally published in my 2010 Write Touch Reader's Award winning anthology Mistletoe Rules, I've re-released the individual stories and plan to add new romances set during the different seasons while occasionally visiting friends in my other small town romances series, Welcome to Redemption, written with Donna Marie Rogers.
These first three stories in Romancing Wisconsin feature the Riley siblings and their unexpected Happily Ever Afters engineered by the lovable, matching-making Santa Butch. My Dad's name is Butch and he used to play Santa for the neighbors when we were growing up, so I used him for inspiration - though I did take plenty of liberties with the character. My dad didn't possess any magical abilities, but is it possible Santa Butch does?
Mistletoe Mischief
(Romancing Wisconsin Series #1)
Christmas in July at the zoo is the last place single parents Eric Riley and Marissa Wilder expect to find love. Thanks to some mistletoe mischief in the form of their two young daughters and Santa, they discover mistletoe rules were not made to be broken.
Mistletoe Magic
(Romancing Wisconsin Series #2)
Major Mark Riley plays Court Jester to Janelle Walsh's Snow Queen at the Christmas Parade and is instantly captivated by the cute redhead whose grandpa just happens to be Santa. When Mark learns she's the tenant he evicted from his newly purchased property, it's going to take a little bit of Santa's mistletoe magic to save their romance.
Mistletoe Match-Up
(Romancing Wisconsin #3)
When Lisa Riley comes home for her brother Mark's Christmas Eve wedding, her high school rivalry with his wife Janelle's cousin, Derek Walsh, picks up right where it left off, only this time Derek has the upper hand. Santa bides his time as they battle it out because he's waited a whole year for this mistletoe match-up.
Amazon, BN, Apple, ARe, Kobo, SW
Right now, trying out the series is risk-FREE! As in, Mistletoe Mischief is FREE at ARe, Kobo, SW and Apple. It's $0.99 elsewhere, but if you'd like a copy FREE at Amazon or BN, email me at staceyjoynetzel (at) gmail . com with the email address to gift you a copy, and I'll send it over with a smile.
Wishing you a wondrous holiday season!

I've had this machine for about 6 years now. Had to get the engineer out in the first week as the delivery guy had been so rough, the surround of the display panel had been knocked out of place. It was supposed to be installed and the other one removed - as my last machine was a hot / cold wash and this one was a cold only, they neglected to cap the hot fill resulting in a flood of my kitchen and the downstairs neighbours. This was apparently my fault (being in complete ignorance of all things… Read Full Review

Whenever the clothiers go through a wash I would always wsh them again....there is scum on every wash, I've cleaned the drum several times and am getting fed up!

This happened to me. Don't use liquid detergent, this is the scum and it sticks inside your door seal. Need to clean it out of the door seal and run some hot empty washes. I now use powder detergents in the drawer. Hope this helps.

I've had this machine for 3 years. I have 3 children so it does get hammered however I don't feel that this is any excuse for the mould growing around the drum and seal and the scum on the inside of the drum that goes all over the clean clothes!!! The mould appeared after just a few months and is impossible to get rid of. Hotpoint and Indesit refuse to acknowledge that there is a problem but so many people complaining of the same things means that there must be. I owned a Hotpoint 15 years ago… Read Full Review

Have had this machine for at least 5 years. Constant problems with mould in the draw and on seal have to regularly bleach draw. Tried using different types of detergent powder/liquids, in the draw and in the drum. Run regular 90 degrees wash, but doesn't help. Have to use 'thin, runny' fabric conditioner as otherwise it doesn't clear from draw and clogs up. VERY noisy when spinning, have to shut the kitchen door as so loud. On and off leaking. RUBBISH. I keep waiting for it to break down… Read Full Review

I great machine use it every day almost and put in it large washes. You can easily fit a summer weight feather quilt.

A washing machine is supposed to get your clothes clean - right? This one doesn't, it just doesn't. Tried changing washing powder/liquid, doubling up the dose, putting powder/liquid in the dispenser, in the drum, both in the drum and dispenser, washing it through again, putting it on different washes, even a boil wash and they still don't come clean. It is nice and quiet, but to be honest, that's the only plus. I've read other reviews, and I've got mildew as well. Plus there's a funny… Read Full Review

This is a great washing machine, very quiet. I chose the 8kg size because I hate to waste water, soap powder and electricity on a small wash, when you can wash a much bigger pile of clothes using the same amounts. I wanted to see what 8kg of washing looked like, and I discovered that 8kg of washing is huge.
To weigh your washing, stand on a weighing machine, weigh yourself, then pick up the bundle of clothes to be washed, and see what the difference is. I was worried I might overload it as it… Read Full Review

The Hotpoint Ultima WT960 is an excellent machine. Recommend it to any friend looking for machine - a number have bought and are just as thrilled as me.

Our hallway bathroom is the perfect example. This is the bathroom that the children use to get ready in the morning and the bathroom that is available to guests. And it always has crap all over it. This summer, I wanted to paint the vanity (it is currently builder's oakish wood), frame the mirror, get a new rug, and make/buy art for the walls. None of this happened.
To inspire myself to get going, I made this pretty little organizer today. I have seen these all over blogworld and Pinterest and have been wanting to make one. I also have been eyeing these cute dishes at T.J. Maxx, but certainly can not afford a whole set!!!! So, using two candlesticks that I had, E6000 and two plates and a bowl, I made this:)! Super easy!!!
My candlesticks were different sizes, which worked nicely for the taller items. You are probably thinking I could just stick some of that stuff in drawers or under the cabinet. Let me explain that I have a sixth grader, and if she does not see that deoderant right in front of her face, she will not use it! The bowl on top holds her little lip glosses, etc. Now this she does not forget to put on, but she can't manage to put it back in the drawer when finished.
I love the pretty design on the dishes (excuse the next pic, I was trying to show the desgin, but it is hard to see since I placed it on a patterned placemat). In fact, I am using it to plan the rest of the bathroom. I think I am going to pain the cabinet cream and distress them. Before I had a real plan, I was going to frame the mirror with painted wood. But now I would like it to be framed in a delicate silver, to match the candlesticks. I will take some before pics of the bathroom before I get started.
Here is one more shot, before I filled it with goodies:)!
And here is a picture of the ongoing (and going, and going, and going) desk project. I need to finish stripping and sanding. I have GOT to get my office/craft area finished before I start teaching!!!

Michael MacGarry
The Ossuary 2009–10
Michael MacGarry is interested in the mechanisms of control that inform the transfer of ideas, values and products from the so-called 'centre' to the 'periphery', investigating the ongoing ramifications of imperialism in Africa. The Ossuary consists of sculpted ivory objects that he identifies with the values and preoccupations of contemporary society, including coercion (knuckleduster), luxury goods (Mercedes Benz hood ornament), health (hypodermic needle) and education (glasses). As the title suggests, these objects are carefully arranged like skeletal remains, an archaeology of the future. MacGarry has argued that while most modern goods are widely accessible in Africa, at a price, much of what is consumed by the elite is imported, draining local economies and failing to stimulate production on the continent.
One Man Struggles, While Another Relaxes 2003
This seemingly ornamental work resembles a modern day container ship, the means by which Africa has been exporting raw materials at low prices and importing manufactured goods at high prices since the mid-twentieth century. However, it is also reminiscent of the slave ships that transported millions of Africans to the Americas between the seventeenth and early nineteenth centuries. At the same time it conjures up images of the migrants who risk their lives travelling in overcrowded, unseaworthy boats in search of better opportunities today.
Fortune & Condition 2011
Intricately constructed from ivory, this sculpture is a miniature model of an oil derrick. In an uncertain market oil companies are increasingly focusing on West Africa. Journalists writing about oil prospecting have revived the term 'Scramble for Africa', originally applied to European colonial expansion in the late nineteenth century. Made from a material that connotes death, this delicate work stands as a caution against the greed and corruption which has resulted in an environmental and humanitarian crisis in the oil-rich Niger Delta.
These works were originally sculpted from elephant ivory. They have been remade from warthog ivory or cast in polyurethane for this exhibition. The elephant ivory trade played a major and often brutal role in the colonisation of Africa. Today international trade in elephant ivory is banned and the movement of old ivory heavily controlled.
The Discreet Charm of the Bourgeoisie 2010
In South Africa vervet monkeys have adapted to inhabit urban spaces and until recently were classified as vermin. The hybrid creature that MacGarry has created appears to have evolved to survive in any environment. Its limbs are strapped to crutches that protect it from the ground below, but also impair movement, and its face has been replaced with a sharp quartz crystal, giving it a threatening appearance. The work borrows its title from Luis Buñuel's 1972 film in which the characters remain oblivious to the bizarre sequence of events unfolding around them. MacGarry's equally surreal creation similarly reflects on a bourgeois culture of entitlement and the pitfalls of relentless consumption.
Fetish VI 2008
The AK-47 is the most popular and widely used assault rifle in the world. MacGarry argues that it is in Africa that 'it has had its most insidious and destructive presence'. In many African countries owning one is commonplace and such a gun can be purchased for less than $10 or traded for a chicken or sack of grain. By hammering in nails and cleats, MacGarry simultaneously decommissions the weapon and endows it with a different kind of power. Nkondi sculptures, wooden figurines traditionally used in the Democratic Republic of Congo to ward off evil spirits and cure illnesses, are activated when nails are hammered into them. By combining the destructive impact of the AK-47 and the spiritual role of the Nkondi, MacGarry has created an object that comments on the degree to which violence has impacted on the social, political and economic fabric of the continent.

From Erfwiki
Revision as of 02:23, 7 May 2009 by 184.108.40.206 (Talk)
Abjuration is used in reference to a magical itemErf-b1-p009, and so must be descriptive of some sort of magical effect; however, at this time no more information is known.
However, to abjure means to renounce or cast away and in many RPGs and other fantasy genres it is used to describe magic that repells enemies or provides protection in some other way. The opposite of conjuration. In reference to the message hat, "abjuration only" would re-inforce the idea of it being a transmitter (only able to "cast away" a message).

While each entrepreneurial success story is different, certain qualities separate great business ideas from the thousands that try and fail. Here are a few examples of what it takes to make it:

1. Successful entrepreneurs validate their ideas.

Dreamers dream, successful entrepreneurs do. Turning ideas into products, measuring how customers respond, and learning whether to stay the course or pivot are the bedrock of scaling a successful startup, so all processes must be aimed at accelerating that feedback loop explains startup guru Eric Reis in his book The Lean Startup. The idea of a "minimum viable product" is sacred to entrepreneurs who hunger to see if their ideas have real market potential.

2. Successful entrepreneurs pursue niche markets.

Creating a product that appeals to everyone may seem like a laudable goal, but successful entrepreneurs know that there is a lot of money to made in clearly defined niche markets. Occupying a niche means you won't be competing with a lot of similar businesses solely on price. And because you will be selling products and services that are customized to the specific needs and predispositions of a select group of people, you can often charge more. Your products and services serve a market that can't easily find alternatives.

3. Successful entrepreneurs delegate.

Believe that "it's better to just to do it myself"? While the lone wolf scenario is attractive to many entrepreneurs, it has serious limitations. Entrepreneurs who learn managed delegation (as opposed to delegating without giving clear direction) gain efficiency and have time to create new opportunities for themselves to engage only their strongest abilities while outsourcing the tasks others can effectively do on their behalf. Delegation of your weaknesses can also help you avoid potentially embarrassing (or worse) mistakes.

4. Successful entrepreneurs are obsessed with getting more done faster and better.

Entrepreneurs love big and lofty goals, but "one of the best ways to focus your effort toward achieving your dreams is to plan and pursue goals. This doesn't have to be a crazy big or detailed thing, it's as simple as thinking about the steps to achieve something, and making deadlines for each step," says Jesse Phillips, a co-founder of the calendar company NeuYear.

Small goals (that are easily achievable) will help keep you motivated, medium range goals will allow you to keep projects on track, and long-term goals help you to understand how it all fits together. Learn how to design your own productivity system here so that you'll continue reaping the rewards of all the hard work you'll be putting into building a business.

5. Successful entrepreneurs cultivate good mentors.

While entrepreneurship attracts a lot of self-starters, it takes a village to raise a successful business.

A mentor is someone with more entrepreneurial business experience than you who serves as a trusted confidante over an extended period of time, usually free of charge. Why do they do this? First and foremost as a way of giving back to their community and to society at large. They may do it to develop their skills as a teacher, manager, strategist, or consultant. And a true mentoring relationship also works in both directions — they learn about new ideas from you just as you learn timeless wisdom from them.

6. Successful entrepreneurs solve problems.

Consider Anita Mahaffey, who started Cool-jams in 2007 to help solve a problem she was experiencing herself.

"I found a great fabric that I wanted to turn into pajamas to help with my own menopausal night sweats, so I did. The product was so wonderful and great at helping the night sweats and overheating that I knew I had to turn it into a business." San Diego-based Cool-jams designs, manufactures and sells wicking sleepwear to help with night sweats, moisture management and temperature regulation problems while sleeping.

Obviously, you love your ideas, but is there a market for them? The best business ideas connect with shared challenges.

Shawn P. McAllister
"I have had the pleasure of knowing David since walking into an open house in Lely in 2011. His professionalism, knowledge, passion and follow up sets the bar. We spent countless days and weeks with David and Tracy driving around the entire Naples and Marco Island area until David found the exact community, builder and development we wanted. We had changed our minds, budgets, timing and locations several times and David always went the extra mile to accommodate our every need.
The newsletters, area updates and restaurant suggestions were right on and very much appreciated. Having owned a Sales & Marketing company with close to 100 employees I know when I meet a genuine, caring and honest person. David does what he says he is going to do and has exceeded all expectations. We are closing on our newly built home in Treviso Bay and look forward to recommending friends and family to David for their real-estate needs as well." – Shawn P McAllister

Todd Norris
"David did an excellent job in providing my wife and me a first hand insight of the Naples area. We spent considerable time going through various communities in our price range matched with our wants and desires. David exerted no pressure. He provided us with the plus and minus of each community that we visited. Working with David was a worthwhile experience which I would highly recommend." – Todd Norris

Tom and Monica Morrison
Tom said – "We met David and had some interest in a home in the Naples area but we really had no idea where we wanted to go. In one day he showed up several properties and even stepped us back through several of the properties that we had looked at and liked and we pretty much decided that this was just what we want. I was really impressed with the skill and ability to dig out of us what it is that we're looking for…"
Monica said – "…I like having a representative from Lely the subdivision here in addition to David because then we could ask questions of them and rely on David to fill in the gaps for us. I thought that was really helpful…"
Tom said – "…We signed a contract to buy and went back to Nebraska and didn't come back in until the house was ready to close. And so during that time David sent us weekly videos 5 to 7 minutes long showing us the progress. By the time the two or three months were up, why we were looking forward to that. If David would miss it by a day, why we would have to call him and say Dave are you going to send us those videos?…
That was really good and it was very helpful and it kept us plugged in to the process. We appreciated the quality of construction and we have to give David credit for introducing us to the folks from Lely. He did an excellent job in representing Stock well and sharing with us. If we had any questions we would call or email and David helped to make sure things were going well…" – Tom and Monica Morrison

Frank Mardh
"David and Tracy helped us find our home away from home. Trying to find your way through the real estate market is hard, especially since the process is so totally different from Sweden. During our search for a home we got wonderful help from David and Tracy. They have a great knowledge of the Naples area and can guide you around different types of areas and resorts. Everywhere we went we understood that David was highly appreciated. We ended up with building and David and Tracy helped us through even that jungle –They are extremely patient and helpful with whatever you need. Apart from that they are also wonderful to socialize with. We were helped beyond our expectations so we recommend them warmly" – Frank Mardh

Jeff Wald
"We met David on a trip to Florida as we walked into an open house he was hosting. It was immediately clear that, that house was not right for us. David immediately sought to find out what we were looking for and immediately took us to view some homes. We met the next AM with David and Tracy and viewed some more houses. David was not pushy, but was always ready to help. Long story short is we purchased a new home that will be constructed. David and Tracy met with us on our next trip when we met with the builder's design team and have provided us with pictures of the home "going up". David has made a tough decision easy!" – Jeff Wald

Linda Cohen
"David Schulz is the perfect person to contact as far as buying or selling a house or condo. David is extremely knowledgeable, goes out of his way to make sure that you are getting everything you need or want and will negotiate on your behalf as well as one could do on his or her own. We never had to wait for David to get back to us to answer any of our questions. Our Condo is being built in Oley in Naples, Fla and we live in Rochester, NY and we talk to David often and we are comfortable because he checks on what's happening and gets back to us to keep us up to date. We have already given Davids name to people that are considering the Naples area and we would use David for any further real estate dealings that come along." – Linda Cohen
