During a break from a tedious deposition a few years ago, Stoell Rives partner Teague Orgeman and his law colleague Thomas Braun started wondering why "there wasn't a dominant—or even good, really—fantasy soccer platform out there," Orgeman recalled.
Electronic Arts' FIFA series and Sports Interactive' Football Manager are among the most successful sports video and simulation games of all time. In Orgeman and Braun's minds, however, no one had yet solved fantasy soccer.
Along with three other co-founders, they got to work developing what would become Starting 11, a daily fantasy game that launched last August ahead of the most recent English Premier League season, and which was updated last week to offer World Cup contests.
"While we were building it," Orgeman said, "we asked what can we do that would be genuinely innovative, that takes advantage of technology that maybe didn't exist three or four years ago?"
Starting 11—which offers cash and free games in the U.K., Canada, Germany and 33 U.S. states—includes two original features. The first is the ability to make live substitutions, like real soccer. While matches are ongoing, a fantasy manager can swap out up to three players on his or her team for others active at the same time.
The second feature is an ability to compete against other users who are physically located less than pitch-length away in a one-on-one game. Various fantasy and gaming regulatory requirements—Starting 11 has a U.K. Gambling Commission license, for instance—mandate access to a phone's geolocation to ensure a user is in a jurisdiction that permits cash games. Since that was already built into the app, the development team figured they could find some benefit of the feature for users, resulting in the proximity-based challenges.
Orgeman, Starting 11's CEO, understood the world of fantasy sports participation as a fan. He had the right experience to craft the user interface, scoring methods, and other fantasy intricacies for real fans. He openly admits, "I'm a fantasy fanatic, like a lunatic about it, and have been for 25 years."
Orgeman is not exaggerating. He manages at least five fantasy NFL teams every fall and a dozen teams across other season-long fantasy sports, not to mention active participation in daily fantasy. Orgeman has been the commissioner of a local fantasy football league since 1997, writing a newsletter for the league twice a week for that entire span. He recently calculated the word count of his two-decade writing habit and realized the total "wasn't far off from the entire Harry Potter series."
His wife of nearly 10 years, Amanda Heyman, is a fellow attorney and co-founder. She supports Starting 11 as general counsel and CMO. Rounding out the founding team are Braun as COO, Mike Arney as chief experience officer, and Alex Ryan as CTO.
Referring to high second-screen usage rates, Orgeman said the team wanted to create a fantasy game that induced sports fans to track live action alongside the app. Adding live substitutions helps that aim, as does a scoring system that rewards not just goals and assists but shots, tackles, clean sheets, and even completed passes, among other metrics. The engagement metric that Orgeman is most proud of thus far is that the average user logs more than 10 minutes in Starting 11.
"Every time that you're in the app and you're watching your team, we want there to be a point change for you," Orgeman said, adding that this system increases the usable player pool to make even defenders relevant. "We want it to be a living experience."
Starting 11's business model, for now, relies on the available cash games, though Orgeman said the emphasis is more on social engagement and peer-to-peer contests than any of the massive tournaments run by DraftKings or FanDuel. The Supreme Court's ruling that states could legalize sports betting may shape future plans for the company, as it will the entire sports industry, but more legal clarity is needed around mobile gambling before Starting 11 thinks about getting involved.
Longer term, Starting 11 could offer B2B services such as white-label games for teams or leagues and find a way to monetize its data set, especially because of the geolocation access.
"We have a lot of really unique information about how and when and where people are watching live soccer matches—when they're most engaged and who they are," Orgeman said.

text: I have never forced a plant to flower that was under 3 months old. I like to veg them for 3 months, 4 at the most. I have had them in veg as long as 6- 8 months. I like them nice & mature when I force them into flowering. My "Bloom Room" is 6 x 11 so I have plenty of space. I have many plants on rolling casters and that makes it so easy to roll them around, no lifting, I love that! I prefer not to flower any more than two plants under my 600 watt metal halide and one under my 400 HPS. They love getting all that light to themselves. I see so many people flowering plants and they're only a foot tall with hardly any side branching. What a waste of energy, time & space in my opinion. I can yield off of one what others yield off of 5 puny twigs. I recently did an experiment at the advice of two well advanced growers & flowered one plant under my 600 MH. The results were amazing! The plant (shown below) was almost 5 feet tall and 8 feet in diameter.

The centre, to be opened in September, will be utilised to diagnose, treat, and train health and education practitioners to help students with special education needs.
The first batch of trainees graduated today at the National Center for Educational Resource Development (NCERD), Kingston, Georgetown. Minister of Education Nicolette Henry said the centre's establishment fits into the ministry's inclusive policy of offering the best education to children with special needs.
"A national push to take students with disability out of isolation means that most students with special education needs now spend the majority of their days in general education classrooms, rather than in special separate classes", she said.
She emphasised that such a centre is recognized in the laws of Guyana which speak to an inclusive policy allowing for students to be officially and comprehensively assessed.
"So, developing an individualised education plan is pivotal to this inclusion process."
The three-month session was undertaken by the Government of Cuba, and offered training in psychology, physiology, occupational therapy and speech therapy.
Cuba's Ambassador to Guyana Narciso Socorro said his government remains committed to special education needs in Guyana.

In our neighborhood spring doesn't start when the lawns turn green or the birds build nests in the trees. Rather, spring starts once all the neighborhood kids start playing outside with each other.
During the cold Utah winters, kids tend to hole up inside. Sure, they still play with each other but it's not in the same large groups that you see when the weather is warm. They play in groups of two or three, building Lego spaceships, playing with dolls, or honing their video game skills. But when the weather warms up, something changes. They flood outside eager to retake the neighborhood from the snow and cold.
The groups grow from two or three in size to five or more. There's the notorious Gang of Curls—an assortment of 5- and 6-year old girls—who roam the neighborhood wearing princess dresses. The go from home to home, playing with dolls and other toys. Once the fun is done they move on to another home, leaving toys and teddy bears strewn all over the floor in their wake.
Then there's the Spy Gang. At least I think that's what they're called. All know is that the large group of 7- to 9-year-old boys who take their toy spy equipment from their rooms, meet outside in the middle of the neighborhood, and disappear. Sometimes they spy on the Gang of Curls. Other times I catch a glimpse of them—or at least I think I do-- peaking at me as I sit on the porch and write. Other times they try to blend into the neighborhood scenery by playing basketball in the neighbor's driveway. They're a sneaky bunch.
Finally, there's a collection of kids 4 and under who come out only under the supervision of at least one parent. They don't tend to socialize in groups for very long. Usually they're on their own learning to ride bikes or playing with toys on the sidewalk. You need to keep a close eye on these ones because they don't have a problem wandering off on their own.
All these groups have been pretty much dormant since the first snow blanketed the ground at near the end of November. But all of that changed last night.
I pulled into the neighborhood and saw around 15 kids playing in the various homes on our end of the street. The Spy Gang was kicking a soccer ball, while the Gang of Curls rode bikes around the cul-de-sac. The younger kids wandered around playing with toys but mostly just enjoying the sun. Parents congregated in small groups, catching up with each other after spending the last four months indoors.
Instead of going inside like usual, it was nice to get out and socialize and watch the kids play. It was nice to feel the sun on my face and not feel like I had to wear a coat. It was nice to talk with neighbors and watch the kids run around.
Yeah, spring has finally arrived.

Clinic Stories
Did You Forget Something?
Pets are sometimes left without care for days or weeks. A few are left intentionally, including Hiram, our office turtle who was left in a foreclosed home. Miss Muffit, the subject of another story was locked in a basement for seven weeks when the owners moved and thought she had run outside. One dog, a Chihuahua, was sealed alive in a wall when the owners moved out of their apartment. Sometimes pets are simply turned loose or tied somewhere. In one case an aged Saint Bernard that was unable to walk was left by the side of the road with a bag of food. Leaving a cat in a carrier at the front door of a veterinary hospital or a dog tied to a fence at a shelter are common occurrences. Many people are surprised when they learn they have been recorded on a security camera.
More often owners are unable to get to or to care for their pets. They are left behind due to flooding or other disaster or because the owner died. One owner left five dogs behind when his house flooded but did not return after the flood. Neighbors who came back realized that the dogs were in the house unattended and called Animal Control. By that time one of the dogs was dead, either from lack of care or killed by the other dogs, and had been eaten. The owner was charged with animal cruelty. I took care of two parakeets that were trapped in an apartment for weeks near the World Trade Center following the September 11 terror attack. One survived but the other eventually died from respiratory disease, likely the only terror victims I ever cared for. Another dog was rescued from a flooded house after five days. He was found floating on a water logged mattress and had a severe skin infection from the constant moisture. The owners, unable to move back, did not have a place to keep or care for the dog and surrendered him to the shelter.
Among the saddest cases are where the owner dies and is not discovered for several days. The dogs often stay with the owner, maintaining a vigil. Often the owners have been ill so the pets were not in good condition prior to the owner's death. I was asked to do a post-mortem examination on a dog who had died in his crate. The owner was an alcoholic and was not caring for himself or his home. The police were called and when they told him the dog was dead he was inconsolable. He claimed the dog had been eating the day before. On examination the dog, a young Cairn Terrier, weighed three pounds, had clearly starved to death and had been dead for over a week. Another dog in the home was well fed and in good health.
These instances show how dependent our pets are on us.

A nutritious and tasty food may not be always involve simple preparation. Your meal is perhaps created by adding different ingredients, and very often, meat is the most desired item, we like to add. But, like other items, meat cannot be cut easily with any simple device. That is why meat slicer has been introduced to give convenience to your chefs.
The blades of these slicers are available in a variety of sizes, depending on your machine's size. The slicers that are used for domestic purpose have a blade of about seven inches. This size also decides on the particular size of food that can be cut. If this blade's dimension is not enough, then the food can never be sliced.
Slicer- not merely for meat–
A common question, asked by users of the meat slicing device is that they do not understand whether it is possible to cut something other than meat. Obviously, they may easily make slices of any hard food with this appliance. No matter how hard the vegetable is, you can quickly cut it. Moreover, the firm cheeses may also be sliced very fast. However, you have to keep away from any watery product as it may block up your blade, causing some problems.
Increase productivity-
If you utilize meat slicer for commercial, then we can say that this machine saves much of your money. The device may do the work of almost ten to twenty workers. Thus, you can also reduce your budget. For instance, to cut kilos of meat simultaneously, a number of labourers are needed. As the innovative meat slicing machine is able to do this work effortless, only a few workers are required. Your may click on http://www.slicewiser.com/ to know about these slicers.
Amount of pork- Easily calculated-
There is another excellent function, which may help you wonderfully. It helps you to determine how much pork is to be cut for adding to the meals. Thus, you may also utilize your time more effectively.
Maintenance of slicer–
Though meat slicers are highly useful, it is sometimes hard to clean. So, you have to take care to increase its longevity. Ensure that you have the right oil for lubrication of blade on a regular basis. Always use the oil that is edible because the oil may get mixed with the food to be cut. Thus, take proper care of your machine and enjoy it for many years.

Week 10 is in the books, and my main goal of this past week was to dedicate some portion of time, everyday, to working on some element of the capstone. This includes adding to the Brand Development module, continuing with research on similarly positioned universities, and putting together the presentation. One of the biggest surprises I have experienced during this capstone project is how often I have to revisit and revise previously completed deliverables. Although this has come as a surprise, I have also found it incredible useful as I work towards assembling my presentation and paper. For so long I was not sure what the results of my deliverable really meant for my final recommendations, but now I can see how they fit, as well as how consistent I have been with my work.
Looking forward to this week, I have my second project review with Drew on Tuesday. I am looking forward to hearing his thoughts on the work I have been doing for the last few weeks, as well as getting some advice as I head into the final few weeks of the semester. The pressure is mounting, so I am hoping for a positive project review and a lot of progress in the coming days!

Former Pelham Village trustee gets no jail time in child porn casePosted: Updated:
A former Pelham Village trustee will receive no jail time despite pleading guilty to child porn charges.
Christopher Reim was sentenced to two separate 10-year probations on two counts of promoting and possessing child porn.
The 51-year-old husband and father of one was arrested in May of last year and pleaded guilty this February. Reim resigned as a Pelham Village trustee right after he was arrested.
Prosecutors say a search of Reim's home computer indicated he possessed images of sexual performances by children.
In court Tuesday, a remorseful Reim took responsibility for what he described as his "impulsive actions."
"I let down my family and my neighbors," Reim said. "Because we rely on each other to do the right thing."
Reim's two 10-year probations will run concurrently. He also has to register as a sex offender.

The Bleed Continues
Hands played = 151
Total won = -$10.75
BB/100 hands = -7.12
Pretty much all of this is due to AA getting cracked by KK when the K spiked the turn. By the same person who sucked me out a few times yesterday, no doubt... Any time I see that charactor show up at the tables, I'm running like a sissy.

Level Ground – Poem
Level Ground
We live on a common
ground of strained relationships
friends, families and foes
In this forest of strange behaviours
find one that attracts you
or sore your heart & bleeds like a river
Walk down the boulevard of old
friendships, curtail the gritting
make a home under the
apple tree, gather for the lack of rain
A friend is watering his yard
but the red clouds are aged with sun
What we make out of all seasons
fulfill our pocket of hearts with joy
or grief, what the birds store
in their silos
flourish their colony in bounties
You don't need a foe with little
desires, with little bouquets of love
but one who overflows in all
We are field workers,
miners of unknown tomorrow
living on a common ground
in a forest of strange behaviours

Earnings growth has dropped back, according to the latest figures from the Office for National Statistics. Average weekly earnings across the whole economy grew by 2.3% in three-months to July, compared to a year ago, down from the revised figure of 2.5% for June.
In the private sector, average weekly earnings grew by 2.4% in the year to July, down from the revised figure of 2.6% for both May and June but still above the lower levels seen in the spring. Earnings growth in the public sector was 1.7% in the year to June, down from the 1.9% seen in both May and June, but also higher than seen at the start of the year. This still means that average earnings in the private sector at £505 a week are now greater than in the public sector at £499 a week, a trend that has emerged since April of this year.

December 2018
Dear Friend,
It is hard to believe this is my last year-end message to you. 32 years of fighting together for immigrant rights.
It has been an enormous privilege. We have accomplished a lot together. Can I ask you one final favor?
Can you dig deep to contribute to our work before year-end?Donate to NIPNLG Today »
Here are just a few reasons why. In 2018, the NIPNLG:
- Filed a lawsuit against Donald Trump for unlawfully ending temporary protected status (TPS) for Haitians, that is heading to trial in 2019
- Had its amicus brief in Dimaya v. Sessions form part of the Supreme Court's decision in finding part of the aggravated felony definition unconstitutional
- Exposed huge Fortune 500 companies' complicity in developing deportation technology for DHS (Department of Homeland Security), which was covered in the New York Times
- Sued to challenge ICE (Immigration and Customs Enforcement) arrests of immigrant rights activists in violation of their First Amendment rights
- Obtained dismissals of ICE courthouse arrests of domestic violence survivors in Charlotte, NC
- Filed a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request that exposed Executive Branch misconduct in decision-making, which CNN covered; and
- Supported communities in struggle by being available 24/7 to respond to their legal needs.
Your partnership, our incredibly dedicated and skilled staff, our members' support, and our board's guidance enabled NIPNLG to achieve these results, and many more, despite being run on a shoestring budget. Rest assured that NIPNLG uses your donation wisely.
Please donate as much as you can this year. I want to ensure a solid financial footing for my successor at this organization that I love, and which I know will continue its principled struggle for justice. Please help us to set a new fundraising record this year.

Redskins Promote Cavanaugh to OC
The Redskins have decided to promote quarterbacks coach Matt Cavanaugh to offensive coordinator.
Cavanaugh has been the Redskins quarterbacks coach for the past two seasons so he has a lot of experience with Kirk Cousins if the Skins plan to keep him.
Sean McVay ran Grudens offense pretty well over the years and Cavanaugh obviously got to see that unfold so theoretically he should be well prepared for the position.
The Redskins have also announced the hiring of Kevin O'Connell to fill in the vacancy at quarterbacks coach. O'Connell recently spent time with the 49ers and Browns.

What is Mediation?
More people facing divorce are turning to mediation as a user friendly process that reduces cost, both personal and financial. Mediation can save not only money, but it can also reduce the emotional toll on your family by avoiding a lengthy court battle. It can avoid the more confrontational approach that so often ends up taking a long time and a judge ultimately making the decisions for you.
Mediation is a confidential process in which the mediator helps people talk and listen to each other about what is important to them - what they each want and what they want for their chldren.
- When chldren are involved, it is a way of creating a parenting plan that is unique to parents and children's needs.
- A mediator is neutral and does not take sides.
- In mediation, people gain get a clearer understanding of their situation and a better view of each other's perspectives.
The decisions made in mediation become the elements of their Decree after they get the advice of their attorneys.
Mediation can help open the lines of communication. In mediation, you can tell the other person what is important to you about the situation and how it has affected you. You can tell them what you want them to understand. You can ask questions. You can hear what they have to say. Sometimes mediation is the only chance people have to talk directly to each other, to talk things through and to be heard. Most of the time, people hear new information in mediation. Often, people feel heard for the first time.
There is no agreement in mediation unless you both agree to it.
Most people are sure that mediation won't work for them. Yet over 70% of the people who mediate reach an agreement, and they are surprised. When people do reach agreement, they save money and time and, more importantly, they make their own decisions.
Even when people do not reach an agreement in mediation, they often find that they are clearer on what to do next and better able to move on.
How Can a Mediator Help?
By being a good listener. Mediators are trained to be objective. We can help you clarify difficult issues, see them from a different angle and provide support while you talk about them.
Certified mediators are professionals who have demonstrated competency in their fields thru training, testing, credentialing, and continuing education.

How to Contact Us
Some people choose to come for mediation on their own, and others are referred by their attorney or the courts.

Last week I was off due to a death in the family that caused me to travel out of town very unexpectedly.
Anyways, this weeks theme is Spring or Easter and our sponsor this week is Eureka.
When I start to think about Spring it's mostly that you start to be outside more during the day and may go to a playground and go on a swing, go and pick the wild spring flowers.
I chose to use the image Swinging, it reminds me of the first swings you do when Spring comes around.
I will make this post a short one and I do hope that you will enter this challenge as well over at Monday Greetings at The Oulawz.
Anyways, until next time .......................................... Craft on.

Happy Swiss National Day!
Today is all about celebrating the confederation of Switzerland being formed hundreds of years ago – in a meadow surrounded by cows.
Millions of proud Swiss nationals will spend the day gorging on traditional Swiss food and drink, watching firework displays, singing the national anthem and waving lots of Swiss flags.
And it won't just be those in Switzerland celebrating, with expats around the world attending special events abroad.
Here is everything you need to know.
When is Swiss National Day?
Swiss National Day is always held on the first of August since 1891.
What is Swiss National Day all about?
Like a number of national days, Switzerland's national day is all about the founding of the confederation.
That was back in 1291 and marked an alliance between the three cantons (which are basically like states) of Switzerland: Uri, Schwyz and Unterwalden.
This alliance led to what we now know as Switzerland today.
How did the alliance come about?
The three cantons agreed to mutually help one another as a joint move against the Austrian royal dynasty, the House of Habsburgs, which was gradually clawing its way across the continent.
The crunch was as the royals attempted to strengthen their position in the region leading to the Gotthard Pass prompting the cantons to swear an oath to one another and make the formal agreement in August 1291 on a meadow surrounded by cows in Uri near Lake Lucerne.
How do the Swiss celebrate the day?
There will be a radio and TV broadcast from the President of the Swiss confederation as well as speeches by public figures, music concerts, gymnastic displays, fireworks, bonfires, and national anthem recitals.
Children sometimes light paper lanterns and communities decorate buildings with flags.
Bakers also make special rolls with a Swiss flag on top and since 1920 there has been a special celebration at Rhine Falls near Schaffhausen, where the waterfall is illuminated and fireworks are set off.
And at Rütli Meadow in Uri there is another special celebration to mark where the pledge of allegiance was made.
A fuller list of specific events in Switzerland can be found here.
How do the Swiss celebrate in the UK?
There are a number of events taking place in Britain for anyone who wants to celebrate their Swiss roots or those who just want to join in the party.
There will be a celebration at the Swiss Church in London between 4pm and 9pm with Swiss beer, wine and traditional Swiss dishes from Mosimann. The event is held by the Swiss society Unione Ticinese.
The Swiss Club London hasn't posted an event for August 1 yet but is usually a good port of call for Swiss social events in the city.
The New Helvetic Society is another social club for Swiss people in Britain with a number of regular cultural events on offer. It's members only.
You can also view the President's address online in Italian here, in French here and in German here, according to Swiss National Day London.

Okay, you're not a chef, you're a riding instructor. How does mise en place help your business? Your work day is limited like the restaurant chef's. It's a time based revenue system based on the number of lessons given. When you get behind due to lack of preparation and inefficient systems, lessons run behind, students are unhappy, other business tasks don't get done and tension and frustration build for you and your staff. And like the chef, you have no time-outs.Here are a few suggestion of what a mise-en place philosophy might look like for your lesson and horse business where you are prepared and ready for work each day.
In the morning at home:
- Charged cell phone to make it through the day without sudden battery death
- Riding boots, work boots, muck boots in the same place every day
- Barn jackets, coats, gloves and hat in the same closet for easy selection and quick exit
- Vehicle keys on the same hook or in a dish to place in your pocket as you leave for work
At the barn:
- A posted lesson schedule for the day to refresh your memory for students and horses
- Designated places for bridles, pads, saddles, girths, lead lines, bits, etc. for lesson horses
- A stocked tack cleaning station with sponges, soaps, oils, towels
- Wall clocks in the tack room, indoor arena and barn
- Tools on hooks on wall in one area: brooms, pitchforks, shovels
- Wheelbarrows, muck buckets in designated areas, empty at the start of the day
- A stocked first aid kit for both horses and humans
- A fueled, operational tractor ready for manure removal, arena grooming, mowing etc.
- At your desk:
- At arm's length reach: stapler, paper clips, tape, new file folders, files you're working on, box for receipts and invoices to be posted.
- A comfortable chair in good repair to be seated in
- A printer and scanner at arm's length or close proximity
- File cabinets with drawers, less than ¾ full
In your vehicle:
- A fuel reading at ¼ tank or above
- Sunglasses
- Reading glasses
- Phone charger
- Bottled water
- A dashboard that is paper clutter free
No doubt you have more items to include in your own tailored mise-en-place strategy. The above will help you get started. Your goal is to develop an automatic routine to be ready to go to work before work actually starts for the day and choreograph the physical steps you take daily into a work dance. The more you eliminate wasted steps brought about by: Can't find, I forgot, Nobody told me, the closer you will get to a fluent, enjoyable and profitable work day.

Albert Einstein once said, "The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results." In 2008, many subprime lenders tightened their guidelines or closed up shop, leaving dealers to find new ways to finance their special finance customers or face the same fate. Taking their cue from Einstein, many franchise dealers are rethinking how they do things as new-vehicle sales continue to shrink.
For years, buy-here, pay-here has been perceived as a good way to sell used cars, but not for big franchise stores. Those days are changing, and dealers are watching too many customers who would have been approved for an indirect loan a year ago walk out the door. In response, many new-car dealers are considering adding a BHPH operation to improve their used-car sales.
This trend comes as no surprise to Ken Shilson, president of the National Alliance of Buy Here, Pay Here Dealers (NABD). He believes restricted credit markets have created a perfect opportunity for dealers of every stripe to offer their own financing.
"There has never been a better time for franchise dealers to increase their profitability with buy-here, pay-here," Shilson says. "Dealers are telling me, 'We've got to squeeze out every penny. We need to find new profit centers.' Well, with the right vehicles, processes and training, BHPH can turn your wholesale loss into a profit."
Getting started
It's an exciting prospect, but you don't want to jump into buy-here, pay-here blind. As big a potential profit source as it is, BHPH can put you out of business fast. Do your homework in advance to ensure success.
"Many franchise dealers are not comfortable with the idea, and the truth is, it's a whole new business," Shilson says. "If you're going into it with no experience, go to NABD first. Put yourself through some training sessions and get comfortable. Just know that you've got to understand BHPH well enough to manage it and supervise it properly."
Laredo-based Sames Auto Group opened Texas' first Ford dealership in 1910. Sames has grown in leaps and bounds over the years, and the group now includes Mazda and Honda stores as well. Hank Sames, the fourth generation of the Sames family to lead the organization, says BHPH has already kept them in business through some lean times.
"We started doing buy-here, pay-here in 1991," Sames says. "We started small and we've built it up every year. It's been a great complement to our traditional sales. We'll do 150-plus BHPH deals this month."
Considering most dealers average between $3,500 to $4,500 gross profit on each BHPH deal, I often wonder why more new-car dealers aren't in the BHPH business. According to Sames, those who don't prepare properly are quickly scared off.
"Too many dealers will stick their toes in the water, get burned and quit," he says. "You've got to be either in or out. It's a real business, just like any other. Go to a training class. There are laws to learn, tax issues … but it's nothing that can't be done."
Another dealer who has reaped the benefits of the BHPH business for years is Dahl Ford in Davenport, Iowa. Fifth-generation principal
K.V. Dahl offers in-house financing from two locations on opposite sides of town.
"Our BHPH business is very profitable for us, but we manage it very thoroughly," Dahl says. "We only want to do about 20 deals a month at each location. That is what we are staffed to handle. That is where a lot of dealers get in trouble. It is easy to lend the money, but it doesn't mean a thing if you can't collect it."
So, you might ask, why not add more staff to increase the sales?
"We feel like 20 deals per is a good number in our community," Dahl says. "One thing we look at very hard in our underwriting is the residence stability. We started our BHPH operation to provide a service for customers who were unable to receive normal bank financing. Everything we do is designed to emphasize our 'Dahl Difference' image. At our Ford store, we have extremely high CSI scores, but we strive to make sure to take care of our BHPH customers just as well."
Jumping in
Now that you have decided to get into the buy-here, pay-here business, what's next?
Start by visiting NABD at www.bhphinfo.com. The association is a tremendous resource and a great place to start gathering information and look for educational opportunities. In any case, your first step must be to create a comprehensive business plan and stick to it.
The most fundamental part of any BHPH business plan is the underwriting guidelines and, in particular, the cash-in-deal commitment. Once you decide how much of your cash you're willing to invest in each customer, you can start to figure out how much cash you'll need in reserve to keep it going.
The phrase "cash is king" has never been more true than when it is applied to the BHPH business. The reason your business plan is so important is that it will force you to budget your portfolio. Let's take a closer look at the cash flow scenario:
Joe Dealer decides on a cash-in-deal of $3,500 and wants to write 20 deals per month with a monthly payment of $300. After six months, Joe will have put $420,000 in cash on the streets ($3,500 cash-in-deal x 20/month x 6 months). Even if every account pays on time (remember, this is a fictitious example), Joe will have collected only $90,000 in payments. He can sell every one of his cars at a $10,000 profit, but if he doesn't have adequate cash flow, he'll sell himself right out of business. Cash is king!
Ideally, you want 18 months' worth of cash to get started. Again, that's why following your business plan is so important: If you start making exceptions and going over $3,500 cash-in-deal, you will become cash-strapped before you know it.
Collections and inventory
Another quick way to run out of cash is to fail to collect on your portfolio. I once worked with a branch manager at a national subprime lender who said that special finance is "not a lending business; it's a collections business." Generally, you'll want to have one collector on staff for every 200 accounts in your portfolio.
Your collectors have to be trained to have the same skills as counselors: not intimidating, but helpful. You want your customers to feel comfortable enough to call you if for some reason they are going to be late on their payment. You don't want to threaten to repossess the car if they have a legitimate reason for not paying. This will only damage the trust your customers have in you.
When it comes to inventory, remember that many franchise stores already wholesale perfect BHPH units every day. When you finance those vehicles in-house, the amount you own them for is not important in relation to book value. There's no bank to tighten down the advance you can get. So if you need to put a little more in a trade to make a new-car deal, you don't have to worry about getting out of it at the auction. You will find a very appreciative BHPH customer for that new-car trade-in.
Next month, I'm going to talk about some of the resources available to dealers to help them get started in the buy-here, pay-here business. With special finance companies struggling, now is the perfect time to capture more business and build your customer base with a whole new profit center.
And as Shilson puts it, "If you can offer your own financing, the customer who doesn't qualify today can start with BHPH, then maybe qualify for a new-car purchase down the road."
Isn't that what all franchise dealers want to hear?Rob Hagen is the founder of SpecialFinanceCoach.com, a Houston-based consulting firm specializing in department setup and growth. E-mail Rob at [email protected].

This is from my customer,
"I'd like to know what we can do about the zen notify icon process... the icon disappears randomly and to get it back we need to kill zennotifyicon.exe from the task manager and then run zennotifyicon.exe again. This is annoying for us but it's not something we can expect the users to do routinely.
Is this another known bug in ZCM? It only seems to affect machines running agent 11.1.0 and above."
Has anyone else seen this issue, and is there a fix in place or is this a Bug?
Thank you,

One thing that I wish I could change about myself is how much I overthink everything. Once I start overthinking it's almost impossible to stop. I don't know why us over-thinkers overthink every last detail of everything we do. It's something that we can't help but do. I've noticed that there are some things that every over-thinker like myself can relate to.
- We don't let go of things easily. If only it was that simple for us over-thinkers. We have to over analyze everything. As if thinking about the situation over and over again will change anything. It won't, but yet we continuously replay the details of everything that happened in our head. We overthink. When there is no reason too. So it's hard for us to let situations go or anything for that matter.
- We feel insecure when that might not be the case. We just overthink absolutely everything. Therefore we think of the worst situations that could possibly happen and end up freaking out on you when there was absolutely no need to. We don't mean to come off as insecure, but our minds can't help but overthink, and it leads us to the conclusion that maybe you didn't come home because you're cheating on us.
- When we apologize, we actually mean it. When a over-thinker apologizes to you they probably thought about the situation 100 times in their head and they are truly sorry. We won't forget about the situation. It will end up keeping us up at night, because we feel so horrible about it.
- We second guess ourselves. Overthinking leads to second guessing ourselves. "Maybe that's not what he/she meant or maybe it's what he/she meant." We think too much into things that we dig ourselves a hole, and ultimately don't know what to think anymore.
- We take forever to reply to text messages. We have absolutely no clue what to say. We have probably rewrote it and deleted it 100 times now. And once we hit send we think to ourselves that we probably could of said something better then what we said, and we end up mad at ourselves. And we even replay the conversation over and over again in our heads, like that changes anything.
Us over-thinkers create problems that shouldn't exist.

Yesterday, I took the dogs for a walk, as you do, and although I wasn't aware of more than a sharp tug on the lead at one "is that a rabbit?" moment, I have woken up this morning with a rather sore thumb which is developing a beautiful blue tinge around the base. Today, therefore I shall be mainly left-handed, which is not conducive to much at all.
I had hoped to have a shop Update for you tomorrow but I think it will be smaller than I had planned (which means there will be a bigger one next week instead). I'm not even sure I can knit much.
Fortunately I have a new toy to play with because I have discovered a new Firefox add-on (sorry, Safari) called Hyperwords, which I suspect will keep me happily entertained for a bit.
The chickens have taken my earlier post about them producing 15 eggs a week as some kind of challenge. I went to look for eggs yesterday and there were FIVE!
Five eggs in less than 24 hours, from just three chickens.
Shame they aren't post-able or you'd be getting them in your blue parcels...
Judy, one of the wonderful brigade of sample sock knitters, sent me this.
Beautifully knitted in toddy.
It's the Diamond Waffle Sock from Knitty, coincidentally in a very similar colourway to the original.
The pattern (as written) is knitted toe up on dpns, but Judy used 2.25mm circulars instead. The shaping for the gusset is done along the foot, rather than in the instep, and it has an eye of partridge heel.
I love it!
I just tried to take a photo of my thumb.

When we had two Bluebelle chickens, Smudge (the late Smudge) was very much Top Chicken. She bullied Stoorie somewhat, not in a major, unkind, vicious way, but certainly she walked around the garden and Stoorie followed in her path like a teenager following the most popular girl in the school. Smudge was the escapologist, she leapt over the fence around the chicken enclosure at every opportunity, leaving Stoorie behind. We didn't think Stoorie could jump that high.
Then, after a few weeks of solitary chicken-life, we discovered that Stoorie could indeed leap the fence. In fact she could leap over it not just in the one spot used by her late sister, but pretty much anywhere she chose. What she couldn't do, was leap back in! So we would go out for the evening for a walk or to see a film and come back to find her sitting on the table beside the back door, roosting in the dark, and on several occasions during the day we would hunt her down and put her back in the enclosure to make sure she could reach water and food.
When Faith and Hope arrived, Stoorie was quite uncertain about it all. To begin with she chased them. No pecking, but plenty of "herding". They would go in the eglu, so would she. They came out (smartish) and go and hide under the goosberry bushes, so would she. And she continued to escape on a regular basis.
But this week everything is different. Stoorie has become Momma Chicken.
We open up the eglu in the morning and there is what can only be described as a scrum for the door. It's like athletes in the 100m all trying to breast the tape at the same time, three chickens trying to get through one door, almost Laurel and Hardy in their enthusiasm to reach the food. After a couple of minutes they settle down and start doing the usual scratchy, preeny, pecky behaviour of normal chickens. And Stoorie is now "Top Chicken", looking after her "gels". Maybe we should rename her Miss Jean Brodie.
All day they follow her around. They dust-bath together (under the aforementioned gooseberry bushes). They chill out together in the warmth of the noon sun under the rhubarb leaves. And Stoorie has lost the urge to leap. She stays close by all day long. Or at least she does until about seven in the evening - the "gels" have no real concept of "time for bed" and need a little encouragement to go back in the eglu. One minute she is there with them and the next she has jumped over the fence and is walking up the steps purposefully towards the back door, ready to take up her evening roost. It's as though she has put the kids to bed and has earned her evening G&T in peace and quiet.
Despite the gels being on the skinny side, they are laying, and we have moved from a five-to-six eggs a week situation, to a fifteen-eggs-a-week plenitude.
Happy chickens, I think.
A fortnight ago they were living in cages with a base which was smaller than the average laptop computer.
I just need to make more cakes.

Phew! I need a little sit down... I have been so busy this week it's not funny.
First of all, some knitting.
A lot of us look at patterns and think "Mmmm, pretty, but I would never wear those because ..."
(delete as applicable)
With this in mind, I asked some lovely knitters if they could help me out by knitting single socks so I would have some samples to take to shows.
The socks have started to arrive!
All of them are knitted in "bonny".
First is one from Sally, who is awaiting final thesis-release and is woman-fully resisting the temptations of a new loom until it has been bound and delivered.
This is Meida's sock(s) by Nancy Bush from the book "Favorite Socks".
It weighs 30g (as a scientist, Sally will approve of me weighing the sock).
I am sure she said that this was done without a cable needle!
And then we have three socks from Debbie.
Snicket Socks (ravelry link), by Sabine Riefler. The original pattern has the latticework continuing down the front of the foot rather than as straight lines.
This is Eunice, by Cookie A. from the new Sock Innovation book.
I love the way the trellis goes into the heel.
Another Cookie A. pattern, Monkey, with deep plum contrasting heel and toe.
I would like to say a HUGE "Thank You" to both Sally and Debbie, for these.
There is still another Shop Update to go this week and those of you who have the newsletter know when it will be, broadly speaking.
I have uploaded the photos onto flickr here.
You are looking for pictures numbered from 781 onwards, in the set marked "next update".
If you read the titles you'll see that some of the yarns are called "Skeinlets".
It seems to me that we don't always want a whole skein of laceweight. I think this especially true in the Summer months when perhaps a little something to accessorise a T-shirt on holiday, or to pop into your pocket on a breezy day is closer to what's needed. We don't always want to buy a whole 100g in an accent colour when 30g would be plenty.
Skeinlets are the answer.
They are made by dividing a 100g skein into three. Much burning of midnight oil and many adjustments to skeinwinderyness were needed to achieve this.
The skeinlets are approximately 32-34g in weight, and contain approximately 380-400m of yarn.
You will appreciate this is not an exact science, and if a pattern calls for 390m, please buy two skeins, I cannot do this any more accurately than I have.
In this particular update, I have shown three Skeinlets in each photo. I also have another whole 100g skein waiting to be divided (dyed at the same time so it's as close as a hand dyer can get to a matched dyelot). If you order 100g, I obviously won't divide the whole skein, I'll send it as one "portion".
Flickr seems to mangle the colours a bit, most of them are brighter in real life.
When I upload photos onto the website I go straight from iPhoto and since I don't want to be tweaking the images for flickr and then again for the website, I'm leaving them as they are.
Have fun browsing...

I've decided to formalise the Newsletter I send out from the website.
It will now be sent out on Monday mornings and any special offers, voucher codes etc will be in the newsletter. I can't promise an offer every week, but I'll do my best make it worth signing up for!
I am still intending to add new yarns and so on to the website throughout the week, here and there, but I'm also planning a bigger update once a week, on a weekday. The days and times will vary because I know not everyone can be available at 3 am on a Wednesday and that we are all glued to Gardeners' World on a Friday evening.
The newsletter will let you know on a Monday morning which day the main Update will be on. Rest assured though, it won't be the ONLY time new goodies are added.
Please tell everyone you think might be interested.
The first one goes out tomorrow morning, and all you need to do to get it is to register on the website today and you'll be included in the mailing.
A few of the newer colourways for the week ahead are in the post below this one.
PS. You can, of course also sign up for the blog feed either by feedreader or email, using the subscribe buttons in the blog sidebar but that's separate from the shop newsletter which will be sent using the customer database from the shop. Any offers will only be in the newsletter, not on the blog or on ravelry. About half my customers don't use ravelry at all, so this is the fairest way of doing it.

Just dashing past to show you these.
I think this looks like a corndolly.
Soft greens, very summery.
Pine needles.
Raspberry sorbet.
Betwixt is back!
Small, but perfectly formed...
And matched 50g skeins in bonny for all the two-at-at-time-knitters.
And also in BFL.
There is more... just taking things gently since it's the weekend!

I am a failure... the brainless sock is no more.
I hated Judy's magic cast on.
I loved the cables - and will definitely be cabling again soon.
I loved the look of the Garter Stitch Gusset.
I failed compleletly at executing said Garter Stitch Gusset FOUR TIMES, and I just couldn't face tinking/frogging it again ... so I got the scissors out and chopped it into tiny pieces.
Very satisfying.
And then I tried to burn it!
Which is why there isn't a photo, wool of course doesn't burn, and nylon just kind of frizzles.
I still have 85g left, and yes, it was a waste of good yarn, but it was necessary somehow to get rid of it and leave a clean start for this.
I'm not telling you what it is yet... but it is part of my campaign to get everyone - everyone who isn't already doing it - knitting with solid or nearly solid sock yarn.
I have 26g of this lovely tangerine shade and I'm on a mission to see what can be done with it.
60 stitches. K1tbl, P1 rib.
Can you guess?
It's not one of these... although it could be fun.
In fact...
Faith, Hope and Charity.
Maybe we could design egg cosies for MSF.
What do you think?
