That's the downside of random attack patterns I guess. Sometimes they seem to spam a cheap combo that you have no chance again. A particular hatred of mine is when they spam some move that makes them unaccessible (blos under the sand, plessy in the water for example).
Is there a trick to get him out of the lava? (Like sonic bombs for plessy?)

the closest thing to a glitch for lavasioth.
is taking advantage of the doorways between lava's areas. the doorways have a sort of safe zone where lavasioth cant hit you with physical attacks, so if you stand just in the doorway you cant be hit by swimming, quake or tail attacks. so if you take a range weapon you can unload on him like theres no tommorrow. the only problem is his fireballs can hit you so your dodging skills have to be good. most people have luck with this method but whenever i try it my lavasioth spams his fireballs like crazy (12 times in a row yesterday thats 36 fireballs i had to block /dodge) which i never manage to survive...
im still not getting any love so i have been seeking solace in the loving embrace of god eater burst which i have to say if any of you guys havnt picked it up go do it now! its not MH sure but it is an excellent game and a great counterpart to MH.
getting back to the OP's topic (thanks mr HB for letting me hijack your thread) how many of you guys do solo it out there? and are any of you in north devon? (thats where im at)...

Second Sunday of Easter
Mass Celebrated by Archbishop Denis Hart
at St Patrick's Cathedral, Melbourne,
on Sunday, 7th April, 2002, at 11.00am
Dear Brothers and Sisters,
At the end of the great week of Easter we remember that our faith is a precious gift like fire-tried gold. The joy of the early Christians and their having everything in common was a sign of their faith.
Today we are invited, not merely to listen to the Word of God and to celebrate the Eucharist, but to live the Gospel Jesus preached and humbly and generously in our daily life to be examples of God's everlasting love.
Dear Brothers and Sisters,
The famous author C. S. Lewis, who died in 1963, tells the story of a very small, prayerful boy who was longing for Easter to come and for the joy it would bring about. He was heard murmuring what must have been a poem that he had written. It began, "Chocolate eggs and Jesus risen." Lewis' suggestion was that this showed a great piety and love of God, but he did also note that the time would come when the child would be able to distinguish between the chocolate eggs and the resurrection of Jesus. One has to then distinguish which aspect of Easter we would focus on. If we put the spiritual first, then we can taste something of Easter in the chocolate eggs. If we put the eggs first, then they will soon be nothing more than a sweet.
This story invites us to grapple with the reality of Easter. Is it a spiritual reality that has altered forever our understanding of death? "Is it something which changes our lives forever?" or is it stagnant in the empty tomb, the stone that is rolled away, the burial cloths. If we see that Jesus is really risen, then we have to look at the purpose for which he rose, which is to bring you and me to a new life. That means that our prayer, 'Jesus is risen, he is risen indeed, alleluia', changes our life. In the early Church people were so touched by Jesus' resurrection that they shared their material possessions. This is important for us in the sense that we have a responsibility to support each other.
Easter invites us to have a new birth, to be touched by something that was not there before, to mercy, to hope, to salvation. Anyone who has ever been a mother here will remember that a birth is never achieved without pain and suffering. Saint Peter reminds us that we have to look on the daily struggles of Christian living and the trials, which are part of commitment as the birth pangs that will bring the glory of eternal life. In other words, if we are trying to live in Christ, if we are trying to keep our eyes fixed on the things that are above, then I cannot promise you that you will not suffer or have to struggle. However, because even in our weakness our God is ready to save us even if we were the only person in the world, then this must challenge our dealings with others.
This gives us a hope that there is something worthwhile in our struggles. This means that you and I can be instruments of hope and life for the people we meet.
In the Gospel, Jesus is sending his disciples out to bring peace and reconciliation to others. For the Christian in today's community it means above all to believe that peace is possible in our family, in our society, between nations. Similarly, it is possible for us to work to bring ourselves and others together under Christ in ways we did not dream possible. I am challenged to ask myself whether my energy is driven by the things we do around Easter time or am I trying to stand in truth before the mystery that Jesus has died and is risen and allow it to impact on my every thought, word and deed.
Chocolate eggs or Jesus risen. Temporary happiness or God's life-giving grace. The choice is yours and mine. "You did not seem him, yet you love him; and still without seeing him, you are already filled with a joy so glorious that it cannot be described, because you believe; and you are sure of the end to which you faith looks forward, that is the salvation of your souls." (1 Peter 8-9).
+ Denis J. Hart,
Archbishop of Melbourne.

Other Rare Unusual Cancers of Childhood
Treatment of Melanoma
Treatment for melanoma that has spread only to lymph nodes may be surgery to remove the tumor and lymph nodes with cancer, followed by biologic therapy with high-doseinterferon alpha-2b.
Treatment for melanoma that has spread beyond the lymph nodes may include the following:
- Chemotherapy and/or biologic therapy.
- A clinical trial of high-dose biologic therapy.
Chordoma is a very rare type of bone tumor that forms anywhere along the spine from the base of the skull to the tailbone. In children and teenagers, chordomas develop more often in the base of the skull, making them hard to remove completely with surgery.
Chordoma may cause any of the following signs and symptoms. Check with your doctor if any of the following problems occur:
- Headache.
- Neck or back pain.
- Double vision.
- Paralysis of the muscles in the face.
- Numbness, tingling, or weakness of the arms and legs.
- A change in bowel or bladder habits.
Other conditions that are not chordoma may cause these same symptoms.
Chordomas may recur (come back), usually in the same place, but sometimes they recur in other areas of bone or in the lungs.
Treatment for chordoma in children is usually surgery to remove as much of the tumor as possible, followed by radiation therapy. Proton beam radiation therapy may be used.
Cancer of Unknown Primary Site
Carcinoma of unknown primary (CUP) is a rare disease in which malignant (cancer) cells are found in the body but the place the cancer began is not known. Cancer can form in any tissue of the body. The primary cancer (the cancer that first formed) can spread to other parts of the body. This process is called metastasis. Cancer cells usually look like the cells in the type of tissue in which the cancer began. For example, breast cancer cells may spread to the lung. Because the cancer began in the breast, the cancer cells in the lung look like breast cancer cells.
Sometimes doctors find where the cancer has spread but cannot find where in the body the cancer first began to grow. This type of cancer is called a cancer of unknown primary (CUP) or occult primary tumor.
Tests are done to find where the primary cancer began and to get information about where the cancer has spread. When tests are able to find the primary cancer, the cancer is no longer a CUP and treatment is based on the type of primary cancer.
Because the place where the cancer started is not known, many different tests and procedures may be needed to find out what type of cancer it is. If tests show there may be cancer, a biopsy is done. A biopsy is the removal of cells or tissues so they can be viewed under a microscope by a pathologist. The pathologist views the tissue under a microscope to look for cancer cells and to find out the type of cancer. The type of biopsy that is done depends on the part of the body being tested for cancer. One of the following types of biopsies may be used:
- Excisional biopsy: The removal of an entire lump of tissue.
- Incisional biopsy: The removal of part of a lump or a sample of tissue.
- Core biopsy: The removal of tissue using a wide needle.
- Fine-needle aspiration (FNA) biopsy: The removal tissue or fluid using a thin needle.

Names for Triplet Girls!
Thinking of names for my triplet girls, and I was thinking about the names Aoife (prn. EE-fa), Primrose, and Sonja. Are they a good trio, or since Aoife and Sonja rhyme, Prim will feel a little left out. Am I overreacting? Thanks for your help!! If you have any suggestions, they will be greatly appreciated!

I finally got around to making a wreath out of sheet music for over our piano. I'm so happy with how it turned out!
I found a bunch of old sheet music at random garage and estate sales.
I basically just formed the sheets into cones, used scotch tape to secure them, then hot-glued them to a foam wreath form.
For the top/second layer, I cut the music sheets in half and rolled those into cones.

Oct. 15 (ESAT News) The first Ethiopian-American voters convention was held Sunday in Alexandria, Virginia, a state largely considered one of the decisive swing states in the general elections.
Organized by Vote for Free Ethiopia USA, the convention drew hundreds of participants from various states and candidates running for congress, state and city councils including Congressman Moran Griffith, Republican representative for Virginia's 9th congressional district.
In a speech he delivered at the event, Congressman Griffith noted that he fully understands the problems and difficulties facing Ethiopians and promised to stand by the side of Ethiopian-Americans that aspire to bring about change.
Alexandria City Mayor William D. Euille said on his part that Ethiopian-Americans should get involved at local and various administrative levels. He promised that he would raise issues related to Ethiopia at every opportunity to meet President Barack Obama.
Mr. Dagnachew Teshome, who leads the voters initiative and came all the way from Los Angeles, detailed the benefits of taking advantage of the right to vote and leveraging it for change in a democratic country like the US.
A press release issued by Vote for Free Ethiopia USA further noted that the number of Ethiopian-Americans who can vote in the US has significantly increased. The release underlined the need to get organized and to get proportional representation and advantages.
The finale of the event was the public drawing of the ESAT Tombola. Ticket number 0889 was declared a winner. The management announced that the winner can collect a new 2012 Toyata Rav in their color of choice from a Toyota dealer in any city.

She's got an awfully big nursery to break in!
Blue Ivy Carter went home from the hospital with her famous mom and dad early on Tuesday, Lenox Hill Hospital officials confirmed to the Daily News and E! News.
PHOTOS: Her fabulous pregnancy
The Daily News reports that Beyonce, 30, and Jay-Z, 42, dodged photographers by exiting via the uptown New York hospital's side gate around 1:30 a.m. Two SUVs with tinted windows blocked traffic on East 76th street to allow the passage of a van. (No word yet on which vehicle held the famous family, or whether the procession was a decoy for an alternate departure.)
PHOTOS: Beyonce's biggest moment in 2011
Fans worldwide are celebrating the birth of the superstar couple's very first child -- who even made her vocal debut, crying in Jay-Z's new song "Glory," -- but other new parents at Lenox Hill reportedly complained of the turmoil Blue Ivy's birth caused.

Lenox Hill officials shot down accusations that some patients were temporarily denied access to the neonatal intensive care unit to accommodate the VIPs on the premises.

It's coming....
A really big fabric sale at Once Around. (Why? Well, because we have a ton of new fabric coming and just because we try to ignore it, the fact is that we do have a finite amount of space at the shop)
All fabric (that includes the fleece and the flannel and the cotton voile) for the entire month of March will be $5/yard.
See you there.

No, it's not a new craft dance, it was the Craft and Hobby Association's Winter Trade Show!
Last weekend, crafty companies and crafty store owners got together to exchange ideas, show off new products and shop to the point of exhaustion.
Unlike TNNA, which I have now attended 3 different times, I had never attended CHA and was a "CHA virgin," as one of the booth operators called me.
But I needn't have worried. If you've survived one trade show, you can survive them all.
As long as you have plenty of coffee.
This photo was taken the moment after I ordered my coffee - an event which occurred 30 MINUTES after I first stepped into line.
Don't believe me? Here's the receipt with my order number. 53.
Fully caffeinated, I headed into the show.
Have you been to a trade show? You probably have. If not, it looks like this:
And this:
Naturally, there is a particular culture that accompanies these events - a big part of which is the ubiquitous rolling cart.
After disparaging these carts (silently, in my mind, of course), craft karma got me and my purse actually broke.
Fortunately (?) this calamity happened at a booth where, if you ordered more than $100 in merchandise, then they would give you a free rolling cart!
Of course I met the requirement, and minutes later I rolled out of there with my brand new nylon, hot pink, bejeweled wheelie with my formerly cute purse stuffed inside.
I'm not really a pink girl, nor a sparkly girl for that matter, but my back and I developed a whole new appreciation for the rolling cart that day, and by the time I left it was packed full of water bottles, samples and tons of catalogs...
A woman stopped me in one of the aisles. Her name was Mary, she informed me, and she really loved my cart!
Where did I get it and how could she get one?? I gave her the scoop and sent her on her way.
Actually, I would happily have given her mine if I hadn't become so attached.
To Be Continued....

Keyboard and Touchpad
The K53E has a full-size keyboard with separate numeric keypad. The keyboard has a familiar feel as it's the same one ASUS uses in most of its consumer notebooks. It does not have a backlighting feature. The keys are square and flat-topped. Keystrokes are mostly fluid and feel a bit rubbery, which isn't a bad thing. Key travel – the distance between pressed and unpressed positions – could be longer and would improve feedback. This is a relatively quiet keyboard provided light pressure is used. There is some noticeable flex on the left side however it does not affect typing feel. The separate number pad on the right is a nice feature though the keys are only about 2/3 the size of the standard keyboard keys.
Screen and Speakers
The K53E has a 15.6-inch 720p (1366x768 resolution) display with LED backlighting. Its glossy surface enhances clarity but means it has a mirror surface; reflections can make the display unusable in well-lit areas such as outside. The picture quality is average for a notebook in this price range, no better or worse than other 15.6-inch notebooks I tested. Contrast is decent; the Command Prompt window is a nice deep black. Viewing angles are poor; any more than 10-15 degrees off-center vertically means distorted colors.
The 1366x768 screen resolution is too low for a 15.6-inch notebook. This screen does not have enough vertical space; this means a lot of scrolling will be required in web pages since only a few paragraphs of text and an image or two can be seen on the screen at once. At a minimum, 15.6-inch notebooks should have a 1600x900 (900p) screen resolution.
The K53E has two stereo speakers located above the keyboard. They are acceptable for notebook speakers and are usable for general listening. The volume is a bit lacking and there is essentially no bass.

Colacium (coal-ace-ee-um) is a euglenid flagellate in which the cells are attached to the substrate b y means of a mucoid stalk. the euglenids are attached to the stalks by their anterior region. As in this species, the stalks may branch and form moderately large aggregates. The individual cells may break free from the stalks and swim away, at which time they are indistinguishable from members of the genus Euglena. Phase contrast.

After reading Andy Kessler's take on net neutrality in the fresh Weekly Standard, it is painfully clear that the American people are getting the shaft, from both sides.
Hate to break the news, but your "fast" DSL Internet access is no longer considered high speed. In parts of the world, cell phones are faster. Have you wondered why Internet video doesn't fill your computer monitor and look like a DVD, but instead is pixelated dreck in a tiny one or two inch square? Well, Comcast is dragging its heels, too. With better video over the Internet, who would want E!, let alone the Style Network? Because of this Fred and Wilma thinking, the United States is 16th in the world in broadband use (behind Liechtenstein!) with East Timor catching up fast. The French may burn Citroëns, but they get 10 megabits for 10 euros--50 times your "fast" Internet access for half the price. That's just not right.
Betcha didn't know that. But Kessler doesn't think the net neutrality act is the answer. That would be like taking the slow boat to China (no pun intended.)
We'll never get 10 megabits to our homes, let alone the multiples of that speed that are possible and affordable today if these telco Goliaths keep covering up their crown jewels. As Dean Wormer might put it: Fat, drunk (on profits), and stupid is no way to go through life, son. But the answer is not regulations imposing net neutrality. You can already smell the mandates and the loopholes once Congress gets involved.
Here's an idea: Start screaming like a madman and using four letter words--like K-E-L-O. And fancier words like "eminent domain." I know, I know. This sounds wrong. These are privately owned wires hanging on poles. But so what? The government-mandated owners have been neglecting them for years--we are left with slums in need of redevelopment. Horse-drawn trolleys ruled cities, too, but had to be destroyed to make way for progress. How do we rip the telco's trolley tracks out and enable something modern and real competition?
Forget the argument that telcos need to be guaranteed a return on investment or they won't upgrade our bandwidth. No one guarantees Intel a return before they spend billions in R&D on their next Pentium chip to beat their competitors at AMD. No one guarantees Cisco a return on their investment before they deploy their next router to beat Juniper. In real, competitive markets, the market provides access to capital.
Without even being paid by the hour, I read through the Supreme Court's Kelo v. City of New London eminent domain rulings. Surely there exists some clever Silicon Valley counsel to twist the wording of the precedent. The telcos may want to treat the Internet like a shopping mall that they own, but the premises are looking awfully sketchy. So start with this line: "Economic underdevelopment and stagnation are also threats to the public sufficient to make their removal cognizable as a public purpose."
Sure, property rights are important, but that doesn't mean we can't shake a cattle prod at our stagnant monopolists and say "update or get out of the way." The mantra should be "megabits to phones and gigabits to homes." We'll only get there via competition. Regulations--even regulations that look friendly to the Googles and Yahoos and hostile to the telcos--will just freeze us where we are today.
IN THE LONG RUN, technology doesn't sleep. You can't keep competitive King Kong in chains. But why wait a decade while lobbyists run interference? If Congress does nothing, we will probably end up paying more for a fast network optimized for Internet phone calls and video and shopping. But this may not be the only possible outcome. Maybe the incumbent network providers--the Verizons, Comcasts, AT&Ts--can be made to compete; threatening to seize their stagnating networks via eminent domain is just one creative idea to get them to do this. A truly competitive, non-neutral network could work, but only if we know its real economic value. If telcos or cable charge too much, someone should be in a position to steal the customer. Maybe then we'd see useful services and a better Internet. Sounds like capitalism.
What new things? It's not just more bandwidth and better Internet video--how about no more phone numbers, just a name and the service finds you? How about subscribing to a channel and being able to watch it when and where you want, on your TV, iPod, or laptop? How about a baby monitor you can view through your cell phone? Something worth paying for. And that's just the easy stuff.
We don't even know what new things are possible. Bandwidth is like putty in the hands of entrepreneurs--new regulations are cement. We don't want a town square or a dilapidated mall--we want a vibrant metropolis. Net neutrality is already the boring old status quo. But don't give in to the cable/telco status quo either. Far better to have competition, as long as it's real, than let Congress shape the coming communications chaos and creativity.
Read it all. There's much we don't know.
UPDATE: from David Holcberg from the Ayn rand Institute;
"Net Neutrality" is an idea that has no place in a free market.
Cable and phone companies have no obligation to treat all Internet traffic equally. If these companies judge it to be in their self-interest to sell speedier delivery to certain content providers, they should be free to do so.
Just as FedEx and UPS are free to charge their customers for faster delivery, so should cable and phone companies.
The idea that cable and phone companies cannot offer superior services to some of their customers is an attack on their freedom. As owners of their networks, they have the right to run their businesses as they see fit.

David Encouraged Himself In the Lord
Sermon shared by John Hamby
January 2008
Summary: This story in the life of David points out three principles to guide us as we seek to "encourage ourselves in the Lord."
Denomination: Baptist
Audience: General adults

A Study of the Life Of David
Sermon # 10
�David Encouraged Himself in the Lord�
1 Samuel 30: 1-25 key verse-6
We all need encouragement from time to time. All of us at sometime or other face a crisis when everything seems to fall apart. There are times of discouragement, when things go wrong even when we are trying to do right. At such times, people may even say, �That�s what you get for trying to do right.� There are times of uncertainty, when don�t know how things are going to turn out. There are times of stress, when our load seems heavier than we can bear. The task is more than we can handle. There can also be times of fear when our very sense of security is threatened. In all of those kinds of situations we need to be encouraged in the Lord.
In the midst of a time of great distress it says of David in our text in verse six, ��But David strengthened himself in the LORD his God.� That sounds great doesn�t it? But what does it really mean that David encouraged himself in the Lord? I would like to have that ability wouldn�t you? So let�s see if we can examine this passage to understand his secret.
David and his company of six hundred men had been off serving in the military of Kind Achish of Gath (that�s right Gath the enemies of Israel) and in the process had left their wives and children in Ziklag unprotect-ed. A raiding band of Amalekites the persis-tent and longtime enemies of Israel, came down on the village, capturing the women and children for slaves, looting the place and carried of everything of value, leaving behind nothing but a smoking pile of rubble.
�Now it happened, when David and his men came to Ziklag, on the third day, that the Amalekites had invaded the South and Ziklag, attacked Ziklag and burned it with fire, (2) and had taken captive the women and those who were there, from small to great; they did not kill anyone, but carried them away and went their way. (3) So David and his men came to the city, and there it was, burned with fire; and their wives, their sons, and their daughters had been taken captive.� When David and his men arrived home all that remained was heap of smoking ruins. Everything was gone; wives, children, cattle and all their property. What do you do when life falls apart? Many follow the adage, �When in trouble, when in doubt, run in circles and scream and shout!�
It is interesting to note how David�s men reacted when they discovered their terrible loss. Verse four, �Then David and the people who were with him lifted up their voices and wept, until they had no more power to weep.�
Some of them sat down and wept until they has no more tears to shed. But others complained and blamed David. Verse six,
�Now David was greatly distressed, for the people spoke of stoning him, because the soul of all the people was grieved, every man for his sons and his daughters�.� Some went so far as to suggest that they stone David. It is always easy in a crisis to blame somebody else or to look for a scapegoat.
What does that have to do with encouraging your self in God? A lot of times when your life gets hairy you�re tempted to do what David�s troops did. You�re tempted to take it out on someone else. Misery loves company. You�re in the pit of despair and instead of spending time with God and asking Him what to do you do the stupid

This should be our mantra: No Bra Should Hurt. No ifs, ands or buts. If your bra hurts, or is even mildly uncomfortable, it is the wrong bra for you, the wrong size, a good bra gone bad or a bad bra. Most of us have a drawer full of very similar bras. We buy what we like and what we think works for us. But if it hurts, we are buying the wrong bra. And we need to understand what is causing our discomfort, so we don't buy a new bra with the same problem.
No Bra Should Hurt
Bra straps are often the culprit. Tugging on loose bra straps that keep falling down our shoulders is definitely a cause of bad bra days. Tightening the straps may be the solution. But if you have narrow shoulders you may want to avoid demi bras and balcony bras which have wide set straps; different styles of bras may work better for you.
Bra straps that are too tight, digging into our shoulders and leaving red marks are also at fault. We sometimes think we need very snug bra straps because of the support they provide; but bra straps are only responsible for 10% to 20% of bra support. If too tight bra straps are a problem for you, try different styles and sizes to find the best bra for your body.
Ill-fitting bra bands can also be responsible for bad bra days. If they are too loose they ride up and we are constantly running to the restroom to pull them back down; if they are too tight they can pinch and even leave red marks across our backs. Not a pleasant feeling. The solution is usually a different size bra.
Another cause of bad bra days is ill-fitting underwires. Underwires should rest against our chest wall; when the cups are too small underwires press into breast tissue causing discomfort and our breasts may even bulge out under the cup. There are many comfortable underwire bras; check out our customer reviews to see which bras our customers recommend.
Underwires have been known to run amuck - most of us have been poked by an errant underwire. Very uncomfortable. Fortunately this usually only occurs in older bras where time and friction have freed the underwire from its channel. When this happens, it is time for a new bra.
How does a good bra go bad? Often we have just worn the living daylights out of a favorite bra. Sometimes we skimped on the care instructions - maybe we accidentally threw it in the dryer a few times. The fact is bras have expiration dates and even the best bras eventually wear out.
Because not every bra is right for every woman you need to consider a variety of bras from different manufacturers to find the best bra for you. And you need to shop someplace that carries a wide range of sizes so you can find the size you need. At Big Girls Bras we carry an extensive variety of bra styles and sizes so you don't have to settle for an almost right bra. And we have resources to help you find the right fit.

I'm alive, but man — what an insane last couple of weeks, both personally and professionally. I'll be blogging about the executive search-related issues after they get resolved, but not now.
On the personal front, my wife gave birth to our new baby daughter, Vivian Marie, on June 18. Mom and baby were doing fine until Monday, June 25. Beautiful baby. Just beautiful. Our fifth, btw.
Let me say how impressed I am with Northside Hospital in Atlanta. Locally, the place is known as a "baby mill" — and ladies, if you get a chance to deliver there, do it. They have the whole thing down to a nit. Every tiny corner of Northside's sprawling complex is filled with little signs and reminders for staff members on how to treat patients with the utmost care.
Get Good People
But just because you show a line-level employee a sign doesn't mean that they will treat their customers with real empathy. That starts with hiring the right people. Northside has this function dialed in, I assure you. They anticipated my wife's every need — and when things got "exceptional" they were able to use their common sense and deeply specialized knowledge of pediatric care to put out the fires.
So we delivered baby Vivian a week ago Monday, and continued to rave about Northside to anyone who would listen.
But this past Monday morning, my wife became very ill and had to be whisked away in an ambulance to Northside's ER. I won't get into the details, but it was pretty intense. My father-in-law used to tell me that "When you are healthy, you have a million problems. When you're not healthy, you have one problem."
My wife (and I) spent Monday and most of Tuesday in Intensive Care. She's fine, and we're home. She's on bed rest, and the prognosis is excellent.
But again: When we were in the ICU, Northside's staff was un-be-liev-able. I'm talking about real empathy here, which is amazing considering that hospitals are temples of controlled chaos. There's no point in managing by exception in an environment whose very existence is predicated on round-the-clock crisis. As a nurse, there's no use pretending to care. You either do or you don't. Nobody can fake it all the time.
The Miserable Majority
Two years ago I heard an HR statistic that 66% of all workers hate their jobs. Hate. Sixty-six percent. I don't know if that's true — but even if the number is only 26%, then one in four people who are paid to serve you throughout your day (grocery clerks, postal workers, cab drivers, etc.) are doing so while transmitting the vibe that "my job sucks and my company sucks and I wish I were someplace else." Friends, you're never going to win the hearts and minds of your clients like that, I assure you. Technology and branding are irrelevant if you're hiring "well poisoners."
Good service is devine.
I won't get religious here, but I'll share something religious with you just to make a point:
There's an old Christian sermon about treating everyone around you AS IF they were Christ (or God) Himself. Get it? God is occupying the body of some random person that you meet — just to see how you will treat them. Sort of like a Mystery Shopper. The story ends with the Bible verse "As you did it for the least of your brethren, you did it for Me." There's probably a similar parable in the Qur'an, the Torah, and the sacred scriptures of other faiths. Pretty universal concept.
I imagine that if you simply used this verse as your company's mission statement, you'd make a ton of money. I'm not even sure the industry matters.
Certainly, the line-level staff members at Northside embrace this principle. And now I'm blogging about it. Tell your friends. Send them a link to this post. And for God's sake, hire those rare individuals who are genetically coded to care for others. In a pinch, they'll make all the difference to your customer experience.
Now have a nice day. And see to it that everyone around you does, too. The money will take care of itself.

From the Publisher
"Here is an excellent book to add to the too-short shelf of work on the cinema of South Korea, which of late has produced some excellent films.... Deftly illustrated with frame blowups, and including useful appendixes charting box-office hits, film production overall in South Korea, and award-wining films, Choi's book provides an energetic, accessible overview of the Korean cinema as a popular art form. An excellent choice as either a course text or a library resource, this book fills a particular niche. Highly recommended (for) all readers."--W.W. Dixon, Choice"Choi's book does admirably what it sets out to do: to explain, from a theoretically critical, technical/aesthetic point of view, how Korean cinema modernized itself in the face of many challenges, both domestic and international."--Gord Sellar, The Japan Times
"South Korean Film Renaissance: Local Hit Makers, Global Provocateurs, written by Choi Jin-hee in English probes how the Korean film industry turned an economic crisis into a cinematic renaissance.... The book gives an exact historical chronicled assessment of the Korean film industry"--Chung Ah-young, The Korea Times
"It's a well-roundsed examination that knits together the many filmic strands of the last two decades to construct a thesis on how the 'renaissance' occurred."--James Havis & Borah Chung, Cineaste

Pillsbury Estate To Be Sold At Auction
When this estate first went up for sale for an astronomical $53.5 million in 2007 many wondered if it would sell. Two years have passed and now Southways, a Minnesota mansion on Lake Minnetonka will be sold at auction. The 32,400-square-foot-main house was designed in 1916-1918 by Harrie T. Lindberg and was used by the Pillsbury family until the early 1990s. On December 9, Sheldon Good & Company will offer the home for sale in a sealed bid auction. The 13 acre estate can be purchased in its entirety or as separate waterfront sites (five different parcels). The estate includes seven structures including a caretaker's cottage/greenhouse, garage, pool complex, smoke room and tea house. How much it will sells for is anyone's guess but I'd speculate it will be under half of the original asking price.

No books but exams on way
PUPILS in most Limpopo schools are about to sit for their mid-year exams, yet the provincial department of education is still expected to deliver books to schools.
The non-delivery of the books is expected to affect pupils, who would be faced with a difficult task of catching up with the syllabus.
The department was taken to court two weeks ago after it had failed to provide textbooks for its pupils.
The Pretoria High Court ruled in favour of the DA's charge that this was unconstitutional, and ordered the department to provide books for the pupils.
But most of the schools are still awaiting delivery of the books.
A source, who spoke on condition of anonymity, said the delay in the delivery of books would affect the pupils negatively.
"The situation has forced us to make use of outdated books just to keep the wheel turning," the source said.
According to the principal of one of the affected schools in Sekhukhune, who also chose to remain anonymous for fear of reprisals, the department had assured that money for norms and standards would be paid this week, which is expected to make their jobs easier.
"Teachers at my school have been paying out of their own pockets to buy even chalk because the money has not been forthcoming," the principal said.
The spokesman of the provincial department of education Pat Kgomo admitted there had been a problem with the release of funds since the department was placed under administration, but confirmed that payment would be made "sometime this week".
"As a department we will live up to our promise and pay the outstanding money to relieve schools of their burdens," he said . - email@example.com

There is a delightful story about the cleaner in the Liberian President's office who told Mrs Johnson-Sirleaf that her granddaughter's school didn't have books. The good President phoned her minister of education and made her, personally, drive to the warehouse and get the books to deliver them to the school by first light. This was, according to the tale, at 2am.There is no excuse for this. Someone should be shot.

What was the main objective of the government intervention? Wasnt that they wanted to take control the department? Or were they pulling stunts on our people? Since they took over the department it should be them seeing that schools get text books. Now their intervention is back firing and hurting poor innocent kids.Report Abuse
