Tactics 100 for Mobile Progress
I've been working on reviving my most popular game Tactics 100 in Unity 3D for mobile devices. I was also thinking of kickstarting it, but I don't know the interest. The multiplayer recently got turned off because I had to sell the website and it's just an old game with less people playing over time. I started the sketching and 3D art with my own funds a few months ago and started learning Unity. I recently got side-tracked when the Apple Watch came out to work on an app for that platform since it was new and exciting. Hopefully when that watch app is approved by Apple it can some make extra income. But now that I'm done with it I can put my focus back on Tactics. A 3D artist is working on the characters right now. For my part I organized sketches and started on the basic framework of the game. Hopefully I can finish it this year, if nothing else pops up. I might consider Kickstarting or Indiegogo, I have to learn what's involved first. But if I could get more funding it would free up my time immensely.
I blurred the title because the name might change.
Some sketches prepared for the 3D artist to reference.
Basic framework, the characters were free and will not be used in the game.
Testing out elevated platforms.

Re: Business plan question..Lighthouse24 Jun 6, 2008 2:38 AM (in response to yeesquiv)1 of 1 people found this helpful
What parts are you finding to be complex? It could be that you're using a template or model that's designed to cover a broad range of start-ups, and it may include some sections that are not relevant to your situation. If there's one particular aspect of the plan (like the descriptive, analytical, or financial elemens) that you find tedious, you might seek free assistance from SCORE or other sources.
As far as what's most important, I'd say it's your Financial Projections (cash flow and P&L) and your Market Analysis (especially the market research and competitive assessment). For the type of retail store you describe in your profile, the Market Strategy (labeling, pricing, branding, advertising, etc.) is also important. If you intend to seek start-up funding from other sources, then all the relevant retail operations/management experience and strategic relationships that you and any of your partners or prospective managers possess are very important factors, as well.
Hope that helps. I wish you the best with your new enterprise.
Re: Business plan question..Adducent Jun 6, 2008 12:24 PM (in response to yeesquiv)1 of 1 people found this helpful
In general Business Plans should consist of the following:
- Executive Summary
- Market Opportunity
- Vision, Mission, & Objectives
- Management
- Business Strategy
- Competition
- Risk
- Financial Plan
- Capital Requirements
- Summary
How complex and comprehensive your plan should be depends on what you plan to use it for. This generally falls into 3 categories:
- 1. Internal Planning (for forming the business and start-up operations)
- 2. Internal Planning and presentation to close contacts that might want to invest in their business.
- 3. Internal Planning, close contacts presentation and presentation to experienced investors and/or sources of funding for the business.
Business plans can range from 10 pages to 50+. Simpler business plans (really more of an extended Executive Summary) are usually 10 pages or so and would primarily be used for internal planning purposes. Those type plans are less complex. Plans for presentation to funding sources and/or investor-ready business plans designed for professional investor presentation are longer and much more comprehensive (they have to be to cover all of the aspects of your business that an investor or funding source is going to want to know about).
There are a lot of resources you can find online to help you with your business planning. Here is one free source that might be of some immediate help to you: http://www.sba.gov/smallbusinessplanner/i
I hope that helps; good luck with your business.

I am in the middle of writing my business plan, and I realize it is important in securing funds to start a business, but does it have to be so complex? What is the most important/vital information I need to provide in a business plan? What information isn't so vital?

& shaking out our hair
On a street looking westward
The afternoon is a goat
Skittering across the world's broken silences
No recalcitrant obnoxious little man on the cold stairs
Telling us we've got 42 minutes to shave dusk
From an unfinished sentence
Eleven pairs of railroad tracks to remind us—
2 bums in a white vacant lot & nothing for the dogs
& I'm delighted to be here
The sky so charmingly
So hissingly black that I want
To cry & let myself
Float out…but into what?

Even after returning a hefty 86% profit in a little over a year, this pot stock isn't done.
The top pot stock we're talking about is GW Pharmaceuticals Plc. (Nasdaq ADR: GWPH).
Based in the UK, GWPH is a biopharmaceutical company engaged in discovering, developing, and commercializing cannabinoid prescription medicines.
Its main product is Sativex, a treatment for multiple sclerosis-related ailments and cancer patients.
Among its most promising pipeline therapies is Epidiolex. It's used to treat a rare and debilitating form of childhood epilepsy. Epidiolex has already progressed to phase 3 FDA trials.
On Aug. 6, GWPH was granted Fast Track designation by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for a proprietary intravenous form of cannabinoid to treat neonatal hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy (NHIE).
Additionally, the European Medicines Agency granted orphan designation for the same product to treat perinatal asphyxia, an alternate term that describes the same condition as NHIE, for which GW has already received orphan drug designation from the FDA.
A drug classified as an "orphan drug" is eligible for priority NDA review, federal tax credits for research, and a guaranteed seven-year patent on drug sales as the first company to obtain FDA marketing approval for a particular drug.
Currently, there are no approved medicines in Europe or the United States specifically indicated for NHIE or perinatal asphyxia.
"GW believes that cannabinoids may have a potentially important role in the treatment of high need pediatric neurologic conditions," the company said. "As a result, we have developed a proprietary intravenous CBD (cannabinoid) formulation specifically for use in this most vulnerable of patient populations, newborn infants with NHIE."
GW Pharma is working towards the launch of a clinical development program in this important medical condition by the end of this year.
But it isn't just promising drugs that make GWPH a top pot stock to buy. The company also has strong financials…

Disclosure: I am receiving compensation for my involvement in the #KidsEatWell initiative. All opinions are my own. Please read our Disclosure Policy for more details.
The longer I am a parent, the more I am concerned with the foods I give my children. There are so many studies showing the importance of filling our bodies with good wholesome foods. So I am always making efforts to improve our eating habits. Dinner time can be a battle ground. We all know that our children should eat healthy. We tell them to eat their vegetables, and they do, most of the time, right? Unless you have a carnivore like my Little E. It takes him FOREVER to eat his veggies! Thats when I get creative!
Well what about when we eat out? These days, our lives get so busy people eat out quite often. Most restaurants idea of a kids meal is fired chicken and french fries. Not exactly healthy, right? I know I have concerns with the effects of all the sodium fat and sugars in some of these meals. There are healthy kids meals out there, we just have to look.

For example, if you type 'elder law' into Google, you get more than 37 million offerings. If you narrow to 'elder law and AARP' you still get a mind-numbing 191,000 results. What the Trusts & Estates Plus app does is provide you with very focused professional content across 14 channels."
The app has the following features:

|PDF - Requires a PDF viewer such as GSview, Xpdf or Adobe Acrobat Reader
We consider the spin-dependent transport properties of an unpolarized electron beam through a multilayer system containing two magnetic barriers with different orientations of magnetizations. The dependences of the transmission coefficient and degree of polarization of transmitted electrons on the angle between the magnetization vectors of barriers and energy of electrons are calculated using transfer-matrix approach. It is found that at the resonance tunneling this dependence should manifest itself quite strongly.

Kentucky Retirement Systems – Protection is Paramount12 October
Kentucky Retirement Systems proactive in its approach to email encryption.
When you offer both health insurance and retirement related financial services to more than 300,000 members, ensuring their personal information is protected is the highest priority.
Kentucky Retirement Systems (KRS) takes this goal very seriously. It has put in place rigorous data protection policies at all levels of operation.
– Mike Burnside, Executive Director, Kentucky Retirement Systems
"We are fully committed to securing every member's personal information," said Mike Burnside, KRS' Executive Director. "We're proactive about protecting this type of data and try to go above and beyond what's expected. It's the right thing to do. Our Board of Trustees is also actively involved in ensuring the protection of our members' information."
KRS is the public pension system for almost all of Kentucky's government and public employees, with close to 1,400 employers paying into the
retirement fund. For members who are 65 and older, it's also a self-funded health insurance entity covered by the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA).
Early need for encrypted email "Early on we identified email as an area that needed to be addressed," said Mark McChesney, KRS's Information Security Officer. "People appropriately talk about social networking sites being dangerous in terms of security, but the critical application for us is email because it's simple to use. Email is the way people communicate, and it's an easy way to inadvertently expose data. There's lots of opportunity for bad things to happen with unsecured email. Email is certainly something you should be encrypting."
KRS carefully researched email encryption solutions and chose Zix Corporation (ZixCorp). "Probably one of the most significant changes and improvements
in our infrastructure has been the addition of the secure email solution," McChesney said. "The biggest point of exposure we've had, whether it has "We are fully committed to securing every member's personal information."

Smith released from hospital
BY foxsports • September 19, 2012
Southend goalkeeper Paul Smith was safely released from hospital on Wednesday morning having been knocked unconscious.
Smith required nine minutes of medical attention having been knocked out during a collision with Deon Burton early on in the League Two encounter at Priestfield.
The 32-year-old regained consciousness before being taken to a local hospital for a routine scan where it was confirmed he sustained no serious damage but did suffer a neck injury.
Smith is now likely to miss Saturday's home clash against Exeter.
Centre-back Mark Phillips was also forced off at half-time nursing a groin injury and is set to sit out at the weekend.

LIVING THE AMERICAN DREAM with a Woodmaster woodworking business of his own
You hear a lot about "The American Dream" these days. A big part of The Dream is the opportunity to make your own way, maybe own your own business. Thousands and thousands of Americans are doing exactly that, running their own small-shop woodworking businesses.
Here's one of them, Edson Miller, from Idaho. His story is inspiring because he started with little woodworking experience and, today, he charts his own course.
"I've run several different businesses over the years. I had a seamless gutter business, and a lawn care and maintenance business. I dabbled in woodworking all my life. In the last few years, reading woodworking articles and watching videos, I gained enough confidence to start my own woodworking business. Today, woodworking is almost a full time business for me. I do some sales and office work part time for a storage shed company to even out my time and income.
Rustic & Fine Furniture
I make both rustic and fine furniture including Adirondack style furniture, desks, tables, kitchen cabinets, and more. I also make a lot of bunk beds for a national company. It's kind of like a franchise. They help me advertise but I get a lot of business through my Facebook page. That's my primary advertising though I've used craigslist, too.
I bought a mid-sized Woodmaster Molder/Planer and used it to make all the trim for a house we were building. Now I use it primarily for planing stock for my bunk beds. I purchase rough or semi-rough lumber — oak, hickory, whatever. I buy it from a company that supplies cabinet shops. They drop off a load for $20.

SAVE BIG NOW on Woodmaster Drum Sanders – sale prices, online specials
I edge the boards on a table saw. Then I put it through the Woodmaster Molder/Planer. But if I'm making molding, I use the Gang Ripsaw attachment to cut several blanks at once. Then I set up the Woodmaster as a molder and run the blanks through. The thickness of lumber I buy can be inconsistent. Some boards are thicker than others so I started planing every board with my Planer. I plane both sides, and go down to 1-3/8" for example.
The Woodmaster's a multi-use machine. Changeovers between functions is not hard — I can switch heads in about five minutes. If you were switching functions back and forth a lot, though, you'd probably want a second Woodmaster.
I chose the midsize model because it seemed to be the most popular. It's a good size for me, 18" planes everything I need to do. The 12" model wasn't big enough and I didn't need the next bigger one, the 25". A few times, though, I've wished I had the bigger one. I can tend to overbuy rather than underbuy; bigger rather than smaller. I've never heard anybody say, 'I wish I had a smaller wood shop.'
Sandpaper-smooth surface with Spiral Cutterhead
I do a lot of work with hickory. If you've used hickory, you know it tears our badly because the grain is just crazy. I got Woodmaster's Spiral Cutterhead to eliminate tearout and it is absolutely awesome. It's incredible! It eliminated 90% of the tearout. Here's another example. I put a piece of fir through the spiral cutterhead and asked a friend to guess what grit sandpaper I'd used. He couldn't guess. But I hadn't used sandpaper, just the spiral cutterhead. It was that smooth.
I have a Woodmaster Drum Sander, too, a 38" double drum model. When I got into woodworking production, I saw I could save a lot of time with a drum sander. I figure it sames me 80% of the time I'd spend hand sanding.
Plus, the double drum arrangement is a big advantage. I put coarser grit paper on the first drum and finer paper on the second one and run wood through both drums in one pass. Or, when I want to, I can sand with just ONE drum by raising the coarse-paper drum OR the fine-paper drum. That's a lot of sanding flexibility.
Factory Tour
I'm 100% happy with both my Woodmasters. Never regretted a thing. Service is great, really great people. A couple years ago, I stopped in the office in Kansas City and the owner, John Miller, gave me a tour of the whole Woodmaster factory.
(Editor's Note: If you're near Kansas City or passing through, you're invited to make Woodmaster one of your stops. Contact us in advance and we'll give you the whole tour, too.)
For anybody thinking about getting a solid woodworking machine that will get you going and last a long time, go for a Woodmaster. And if you're getting a Woodmaster Planer, go with the Spiral Cutterhead, too. It's terrific – really can't be beat!"

Ume Blossoms, the First Sign of Spring in Japan!
A visit to Dazaifu Tenmangu Shinto shrine from early February to mid-March is breathtakingly beautiful. Planted throughout the shrine grounds are over 6,000 flowering plum trees! Red, pink and white sweetly-scented blossoms permeate the grounds with amazing color and intoxicating scents celebrating the coming of spring! Most people associate the Japanese spring with the Sakura (cherry) tree but, it is the plum or Ume tree, as it's called in Japan, which heralds the spring! Ume trees are the first to flower in early to mid February.
The annual Ume Matsuri (Plum Festival) at Dazaifu Tenmangu is a colorful and exciting event! As you enter the shrine grounds you can't help but be overwhelmed by the beauty of thousands of plum blossoms literally everywhere! The sweet scent of plum blossoms mingle with the aroma of traditional Japanese festival foods being roasted over charcoal braziers. Everywhere, cameras are clicking away accompanied by exclamations of kirei! Beautiful!
You'll see a throng of worshippers lined up in front of the offertory box waiting to cast their coins and pray. There are various Shinto rituals and ceremonies that are held in the main hall, behind the offertory box, giving visitors a glimpse of ancient rituals accompanied by chanting and taiko drumming.
The Japanese plum tree bears a small green fruit that can't be eaten unless it is processed in some way. Like the tree that bears it, the Japanese plum is famous! Plums are pickled, made into a tart-tasting jam and used to make a type of alcoholic beverage called umeshu.
The Ume Festival features an annual umeshu tasting event with over 150 varieties of umeshu from around Japan. For 1,000 yen you can spend thirty minutes in the event tent sampling these amazing varieties. There are so many delicious varieties-ume and matcha and ume and yuzu (a citrus fruit) were some of the favorites. Many of the varieties are available for purchase at a very reasonable price. The atmosphere inside the umeshu tasting tent is fun, friendly and incredibly interesting for anyone who loves this delicious beverage.
Wandering around the shrine grounds you have the chance to view miniature ume trees or bonsai trees that are displayed by various gardeners. You can even purchase a bonsai tree of your own! Be sure to sample some festival food while you are there, Chicken BBQ sticks called Yaki Tori, Yaki Soba-a kind of stir-fried noodle dish and Dazaifu's famous Umegae Mochi!
Umegae mochi is a delectable sweet grilled rice cake filled with red bean paste that is best enjoyed with a steaming cup of matcha or green tea.
The Ume festival is annually held from about late February to mid March. Even if you miss the Ume Festival, spring blossom viewing is still the main attraction until about mid-March.
Dazaifu Tenmangu is about a five minute walk from Dazaifu station. The scenic brick road that leads to the shrine is filled with wonderful teahouses, souvenir shops and delicious restaurants. Opposite the shrine entrance is a visitor's center that has informational brochures in several languages as well as restroom facilities.

In Nakuru: Hebron House
Nearly all our babies have left us before their 3rd birthday. You'll find them safe in the arms of a loving adoptive family. But what about those few 3-5 year olds who are not adopted (yet)? Well, when our little ones outgrow their baby homes, they 'graduate' to our toddler home in Nakuru. It has been custom-designed, from the ground up, with our toddlers & their growing needs in mind.
1. When did Hebron House open, and how did that happen?
We opened our doors on 7th November 2005. Our beautiful home and grounds, situated in a very pleasant residential, were donated to New Life, entirely free of charge, by an extremely generous sponsor. This was an answer to prayer, as New Life had been asking God to establish a baby rescue centre in each region of Kenya. The first two babies we cared for came to us from New Life in Kisumu. But a month later, we admitted our first Nakuru baby.
2. What is the specific work that Hebron House does? What ages are the children you care for?
We care for toddlers, both boys and girls, aged between 18 months and 5 years. All these little ones first came to New Life as abandoned babies, but have not yet been adopted. To help the children reach their educational and developmental milestones, we have a small pre-school on site.
3. What are 2 or 3 of the major milestones in the history of Hebron House so far?
- Pre-School Programme: we employed a Montessori trained teacher to help the toddlers with their early learning and development; it has been a great success.
- Adoptions: we have seen many toddlers join adoptive 'forever' families and this has been a great blessing to us.
4. As you look to the future, what are your hopes and dreams for Hebron House?
We want to see a truly vibrant home for all our toddlers. We would love to develop our facilities further for the children with a better playground, more outdoor toys, etc.

The father and friends of Halton McCollin who was shot dead in Stretford in 2008 are urging people to 'Give up the Gun' as Greater Manchester Police launches a firearms surrender.
Halton, who would have turned 30 yesterday, tragically lost his life when he was shot in the back of his head outside the China Garden takeaway on 19 January 2008. His murderer has never been caught.
Halton's father, Halton McCollin Snr, and close friends Umer and David are calling on people to surrender their firearms in the hope it will stop anyone else going through the same pain.
During the next two weeks (13th November – 26th November 2017) people can hand in their firearms and ammunition at any police station enquiry counter anonymously with no questions asked.
The last firearms surrender in Greater Manchester took place in April 2016 and 221 weapons were handed in.
Although firearm crime continues to decrease, the surrender offers people the opportunity to safely surrender illegal firearms, a number of which may be held by people in innocence or ignorance of their illegality.
Detective Chief Superintendent Mary Doyle said: "Halton's family and friends should be celebrating his 30th birthday but instead they are visiting his grave and left wondering what kind of man he might have turned out to be.
"Too many lives have been torn apart by gun crime and it is no exaggeration to say every weapon retrieved via the surrender has the potential to save a life.
"The surrender offers you an opportunity to dispose of your weapon safely and discreetly whether it is a gun that has been handed down through the family or a firearm in your loft collecting dust.
"You won't have to give your name or address, we just want more guns out of harm's way. Please do the right thing for the sake of all the families that have had their lives destroyed by firearms."
Beverley Hughes, Deputy Mayor for Policing and Crime, said: "There are still too many gun related incidents occurring across Greater Manchester, with 28 since April. The Give Up The Gun campaign will help stop that number from increasing any further, offering a safe place for guns to be handed in, no questions asked.
"Last year's campaign was hugely successful, with 221 guns taken off the streets, but I want to do even better this year and urge anybody with a gun to do your part and hand it in to a station – it may help save a life."

Putting on the head scarf humbles a woman instantly: Ears pinned down, hemmed in from every side, you are all eyes. Not the worst thing that can happen to a critic, perhaps. The scarf went on upon arrival at Tehran airport for the Fajr International Film Festival. The weather was warm, and colorful lights bobbed among trees: Iran was celebrating the 22nd anniversary of the Islamic Revolution. Festival habitués observed that things have evolved, that women let their scarves slip back off the forehead.
But cultural restrictions have a way of invading what you see on-screen. How does a director film a love story when he can't show a man and woman touching? "It was my problem all my life," said Bahram Bayzai, famous for Bashu, the Little Stranger, made in 1986 and released in 1990 after censorship hassles. Bayzai's Killing Rabids marks his return after 10 years of problems with the regime. His wife, Mozhde Shamsai, won the best-actress award playing a bourgeoise who returns to Tehran after the revolution to save her husband from murderous business partners. She becomes a kind of antique heroine, stalked, battered, and raped. This urban thriller won the audience award, and Bayzai said he thinks it's because the film recounts a period that haunts Iranians: "They've heard about these times from their parents; they are curious."
Iran is a young country: 60 percent of the population is under age 30. During Majid Majidi's Baran (Rain), the best-crafted film in competition (and winner of the top awards), kids stamped their feet to the action scenes—admittedly scarce in this film, a meditation on mute desire. Majidi, a devout Muslim and international prizewinner, twice nominated for the best foreign film Oscar (Children of Heaven and The Color of Paradise), doesn't have to tussle with the censors—he seems to instinctively censor himself.
Baran evokes the plight of Afghan immigrants, a theme that preoccupies Iranian directors—Mohsen Makhmalbaf just returned from shooting on the Afghanistan border. In Baran, a girl disguises herself as a construction worker to replace her father, victim of a fall. Work clothes and cap conceal her until she bewitches a fellow worker: He catches sight of her combing her hair behind a curtain. Sixteen-year-old Zahra Bahrami, who plays the beautiful and religious heroine, was discovered by Majidi in a refugee camp.
This year's movies showed the texture of Tehran street traffic as well as the snowy mountains beyond, and treated some forbidden themes. The Hidden Half, by Tahmine Milani, hints that the heroine had premarital sex. Saman Moqaddam's The Party ends with a party scored to rock and roll. Rakhshan Bani-Etemad's Under the City's Skin has drug trafficking and wife beating. The Unfinished Song by Maziar Miri involves a man's search for a famous folksinger; he finds her in jail, presumably for singing. Indeed, many movies at the festival seemed to be about women oppressed by more than a mere scarf.

bers consumed 3. 4 million pumpkins in their
pies last year. And that's the path of just one
ingredient in the recipe, not to mention the
spices, sugar, flour, etc.
Ensuring that Costco's bakeries have what
they need to produce loads of pumpkin pies is
no easy feat. In fact, when the pie season ends
for members, it's just beginning again for
Costco's bakery buying team. Gavino says,
"We start planning our pumpkin program
after Christmas and New Year for the upcoming season. We review sales from the holiday
season and begin to make projections for the
amount of ingredients we'll need for the following year. This is especially important for
pumpkins. By March or April, our growers
need to know our sales projections so they
know how many fields to plant for us."
Gavino says the buying team drafts the
overall planting/buying plan, ensures that each
pie ingredient arrives at every warehouse and
that, once made, the pies sell quickly (although
one glance is all it takes for a pie to wind up in
my cart). "It's a whole process!" he says.
A few weeks after touring the pumpkin
farms, I visited the bakery in Costco's warehouse in Issaquah, Washington, to get a lesson in making the pies firsthand. I smiled at
the gallon-size cans of Seneca pumpkin lining
the shelves, as if they were old friends.
Learning how to make my favorite dessert was a simple process, in theory: Pie
dough is made in-house, rolled into balls
about the size of a fist and pressed in a
machine that forms the perfect crust. Pie filling (see story at right) is mixed in big stand
mixers and then poured into each pie shell.
Uncooked pies are placed on industrial baking racks, baked in industrial ovens, cooled,
then packaged and displayed for members.
But the devil's in the details. The bakery
supervisor immediately put me to work pressing out pie shells on a machine. While this was
fun, I kept placing the dough in a way that
didn't allow it to fill the edges of the pie pan.
Once the filling was mixed and pouredinto plastic barrels, I used a commercial scoopto fill the waiting pie shells. Each uncookedpie should weigh a specific 3. 8 pounds. I keptforgetting to clear the scale before starting thenext pie, so I had to keep asking the supervi-sor to help me start over. My wrists startedfatiguing from repeatedly lifting a full scoop.
After more than 30 minutes of filling pies,
I felt accomplished rolling two 6-foot-tall
racks into the ovens, totaling 48 pies. But that
feeling quickly dissipated when I was told an
experienced baker would have done the same
number of pies in seven minutes. Apparently,
THE FAMOUS COSTCO pumpkin
pie recipe hails directly from the
personal collection of Sue
McConnaha, Costco's vice president
of bakery operations. McConnaha
had experience as a commercial
baker before coming to Costco, and
kept notes from solid recipes. She
worked with suppliers to standardize
the pie recipe so it could be easily
duplicated and yield consistent
results across Costco's locations.
"We only use the Dickinson
variety for our puree, which is
why the pumpkin is so key. Our
formula doesn't work as
well with other varieties,"
says McConnaha. "We buy as
I don't have a second career path in the bakery.
Despite the learning curve, I have a whole
new respect for what it takes to bring these
pies to our members (and to my birthday celebration) each year. In the weeks leading up
to Thanksgiving, Costco bakeries recruit
additional staff who work around the clock,
making pumpkin pie. The bakery manager
told me that at the Issaquah warehouse alone
they make at least 10,000 pies in the five days
leading up to Thanksgiving.
As I walked into the warehouse after my
shift to do my own shopping, I wondered
which members were taking home the pies I
had made, hoping it wasn't obvious that they
were baked by a complete novice. But then
again, Costco wouldn't sell a pie that wasn't
total perfection. C

U.S. manufacturing, construction sectors remain weak
The ISM's manufacturing index rose to 35.8 in February, well above the 33.8 Bloomberg News consensus estimate. The manufacturing index totaled 35.6 in January. ISM readings above 50 indicate an economic expansion; below 50, a contraction. Hence, the ISM reading below 50 for the13th straight month means the manufacturing sector of the economy has been contracting for more than a year. Further, even more telling, the index's employment sentiment component fell to 26.1% -- the lowest reading in the index's 61-year history.
Construction's doldrums continue
Meanwhile, U.S. construction spending fell -3.3% in January, on a seasonally-adjusted, annualized basis, the U.S. Commerce Department announced Monday (pdf), and that was worse than the -1.5% Bloomberg News consensus estimate. Construction spending declined -1.4% in December 2008 and -9.1% in the past 12 months.
In January, private construction declined 3.7% to a $682 billion annualized rate. Residential construction, which includes home building, fell 2.9% to a $291 billion annualized rate; non-residential construction dropped 4.3%, to $408 billion.
Economic Analysis: As noted, little positive news for investors from manufacturing and construction -- not good news for corporate revenue and earnings for 2009. The ISM indicator rose, but at well below 50, it's still deep in contraction territory. Moreover, the record-low employment sentiment reflects very weak hiring conditions as the recession approaches the 18-month mark. Meanwhile, January construction spending fell more than expected, but given the housing's deep slump, anything short of calamitous is considered a 'moral victory' regarding building. That said, the weak construction activity reflects the large supply of homes on the market due to the high foreclosure rate, and slack demand from U.S. home buyers.
Bottom Line: Both the ISM and construction data reveal a U.S. economy in the midst of a pronounced recession. Further, unless there is a sudden surge in hiring and a change in consumer sentiment to the positive, the housing sector is unlikely to add to U.S. GDP in 2009.

After Harvey's floods, Friendswood will allow residents to rebuild at ground level
Effort helps 300 homeowners but puts others at risk
The city of Friendswood is allowing homeowners in flood-ravaged subdivisions along Clear Creek in Harris Countyto rebuild at ground level, even though they will be subject to severe flooding in storms much less powerful than Hurricane Harvey, a Houston Chronicle analysis has found.
The situation is the result of city officials reverting to a 20-year-old flood insurance map that underestimates the risk of future floods for thousands of homes in order to allow roughly 300 homeowners to make repairs along the creek without going to the expense of elevating their homes.
The long-term impact, though, goes far beyond the 300: Some people who are in flood plains won't know whether they should buy insurance, and others building new homes or remodeling older ones in flood plains won't have to elevate them, setting up more properties for future flooding.
Some people who took on several feet of water in housesnext to the creek, and who are rebuilding at ground level, won't be required to buy flood insurance. And if they do, they'll pay the cheapest rate, about $400 per year. They would be underwater in rainfall that has a 1 percent chance of happening in a given year - 12 to 14 inches of rain in a day for most of the Houston area. That's about five times more likely than Harvey's rains.
"Maybe the better bet for Friendswood would have been to come up with the money to help those 300 elevate and leave the (newer map) in place so that everybody is protected," said Larry Larson, senior policy adviser to the Association of State Floodplain Managers. "Let's not let them build to the old standard. They're going to get hammered next time."
Actions such as those in Friendswood, a city of about 40,000 southeast of Houston, are typical as towns and cities try to protect homeowners from huge repair and renovation bills.But the disparity between premiums and risk nationwide has left the National Flood Insurance Programbillions of dollarsin debt, while encouraging people to build - and rebuild - in flood-prone areas.
Local officials do not set insurance rates, but they do have control over other aspects of the program, such as where buildings can be placed and how high they must be elevated. The federal government sets minimum standards but allows cities to be more restrictive and rewards those tougher regulations with cheaper insurance premiums for the community.
City officials say they had little choice but to revert to the old maps. Many homeowners couldn't afford the cost of elevation and would be forced out of their homes or out of town altogether without some relief, they say.
Councilman Carl Gustafson said he thought of the 80-year-old woman in his neighborhood, recently widowed. The recent widower next door. The woman across the street with a husband who has worsening dementia, and the granddaughter with special needs who lives with them.
How to find your flood zone
How to find your flood zone
The easy way: In Harris County, use Harris County's Flood Education Mapping Tool (http://www.harriscountyfemt.org/). Just enter your address. You can't zoom in as far as you might like. And while it's regularly updated, the tool does not represent the official map. For example, it shows the 2007 flood zone boundaries for part of Friendswood. But the official map, according to FEMA, is from 1999.
The hard way: Use FEMA's Flood Map Service Center (https://msc.fema.gov/portal). Enter your address. Under search results, look for a "View Web Map" icon. If it's not there, the only option is to look at a static map image. Click "Download" under "Map Image." If you or a previous owner of your property requested a map change because, for example, the property was elevated out of the floodplain, it won't show up on these maps. Look under the search results page for "Letters of Map Change."
Caution: Never assume the maps are correct. Discuss your personal risk with an insurance professional.
"They're good, salt-of-the-earth people, and this flood comes in and wipes out their life," Gustafson said. "There's just this cluster of tragedy in there."
Growing flood plains
The path toward Friendswood's choice started in 2007, when Harris County finished a yearslong effort, sparked by the devastation of Tropical Storm Allison, to remap its flood plains. It used highly accurate laser-mapped topography and accounted for increased runoff from the region's urban sprawl. The net result was that the flood plains - the area expected to be underwater in the 1 percent storm - got bigger.
In Friendswood, Clear Creek marks the line between Harris and Galveston counties. The mapping effort covered only the portion of the city in Harris County. The city adopted an ordinance recognizing the 2007 map for regulatory purposes on its Harris County side. The rest of the city, in Galveston County, remained under a 1999 map.
But there was a disconnect with the Federal Emergency Management Agency, which administers the flood insurance program. FEMA continued offering the 1999 map, with much narrower flood plains, as the official map for insurance purposes for the entire city.
FEMA won't publish a partial update to an effective insurance map - it either does all or nothing, said Larry Voice, a FEMA civil engineer who does mapping and risk analysis for the Texas coast. But the agency encourages communities to use the best available flood plain data to regulate development and urges people never to forgo flood insurance merely because they're outside the flood plain designated on the map, he said. If anything, they should view it as an opportunity to get cheaper insurance.
After Harvey, homes with major damage would have to be upgraded to current city codes, including raising them 2 feet above the 1 percent flood elevation. Some of Friendswood's Harris County homeowners didn't know they were subject to those regulations because FEMA, under the older map, didn't consider them to be in the flood plain. They had never been informed of their risk nor required to buy flood insurance.
Homes on the Galveston County side of Clear Creek flooded, too, but those homeowners were already under the 1999 standards.
City officials said they suddenly found themselves in a Catch-22. If they held to the 2007 standards, they would have to enforce requirements that homes in Harris County be elevated, potentially forcing some people to abandon their houses. If they used the old standard, they'd be getting people back home, but at risk of flooding again.
No options
Jason Crochet took out a mortgage on a home in the Forest Bend subdivision, on the Harris County side of Friendswood, two years ago and said he was never told about his flood risk or required to buy insurance. Under the 1999 map, he's outside the flood plain.
"You figure those maps go off other floods like Allison and all that other stuff, so you figured you'd be all right," he said. Allison's record-breaking floods came two years after the 1999 map was published.
Under the 2007 map, Crochet, his wife and 2-year-old daughter are in the middle of the floodway, the most dangerous area at the center of the flood plain. Harvey sent 5 feet of water into the home and forced the family to flee in the middle of the night in a five-ton military rescue truck.
For the Crochets, elevation could cost $100,000 or more for their 1,500-square-foot home on a concrete slab. It would have meant walking away from the house saddled in debt.
Investors were offering $70,000 to buy damaged homes in the area, residents said. Crochet's pre-flood home value was about $140,000.
"If they were to tell me we had to elevate, we really didn't know what our options would be," Crochet said.
In October, assistant city manager Morad Kabiri briefed the City Council, urging members to accept an ordinance reverting to the 1999 map for the Harris County side of Friends-wood. If they didn't, they'd effectively be kicking flooded homeowners out of town, he said. The ordinance was approved unanimously in December.
Yet only a small percentage of Friendswood residents are affected by the map issue, according to the Chronicle's analysis.
The newspaper compared changes in the maps' flood plain boundaries to satellite images and counted about 300 homes that previously were not in the flood plain but would be under the 2007 map. All of them flooded, according to a map of approximate inundation levels provided by the city.
They're mainly in the Wedgewood Village and Forest Bend neighborhoods, in areas closest to the creek. That's 300 out of about 2,400 flood-damaged homes citywide, or roughly 2 to 3 percent of Friends-wood's population.
'Wrong message'
Adopting the wrong flood plain is not a good solution, said Jim Blackburn, an environmental attorney and co-director of a Rice University center that studies Houston's flooding woes.
"It seems like they addressed an important but perhaps narrow problem with a bludgeon instead of a stiletto," he said.
Blackburn suggests the city could have dealt with the issue by offering variances to a few hundred flooded homeowners, so they would not have to elevate, rather than adopting an old map that misrepresents risk.
"That's sending an absolute wrong message across the city," Blackburn said.
Under the 1999 map, Crochet will be able to buy insurance at the cheapest rate, even though the 2007 map shows his home in the most severe flood zone.
City spokesman Jeff Newpher said the city's flood plain ordinance, which mirrors federal regulations, doesn't allow the variances Blackburn contemplates.
"Are there other ways this might have been able to be dealt with? I don't know," Newpher said. "This was deemed to be the best way to help the greatest number of affected residents."
Kabiri said the city was worried about forcing homeowners to elevate their homes even though the federal government did not consider them to be in the flood plain. That might be considered an unconstitutional taking of private property by the government, he said, if it forced people to walk away from their homes.
Gustafson, the councilman, worries about allowing residents back in their homes at ground level only to flood again in the next big storm.
"However, the concern I had is a lot of these people would have been wiped out financially if we didn't do this for them," he said. "They are going into it knowing what they're looking at."
To be sure, the Crochets now are keenly aware of their risk.
"There's nothing I can do to stop or change it because we are invested at this point to stay at least a short period of time," Crochet said. "Long enough to flood again, that's the sad part."
Maps delayed
But others aren't aware.
Diane and Tony Nicolas, real estate agents who lease out a home in Forest Bend, are kicking themselves for ditching their flood insurance after premiums for rental homes increased a few years ago. They got 2 feet of water during Harvey. The neighborhood had not flooded since Tropical Storm Claudette in 1979.
"We decided, my God, we haven't had a flood in 24 years - times $400 per year," Tony Nicolas said. "We've paid a lot of money" in premiums.
He was stunned when a reporter showed him that his home, on the "high" side of Creek Line Drive, was not only in the 1 percent flood plain under the 2007 map, but in the more severe floodway. Under the 1999 map, it wasn't in either.
"I never expected it," he said.
They will buy insurance at the cheapest rate allowed for properties not in the federal flood plain, wait a few years until the stigma of flooding in the area is largely forgotten, then try to sell the refurbished home, Diane Nicolas said.
If it floods, they'll be eligible for up to $250,000 in insurance payouts, largely at taxpayer expense. After mega-disasters such as hurricanes Katrina and Harvey, the National Flood Insurance Program owed the U.S. Treasury more than $25 billion.
Crochet, a full-time firefighter for a chemical plant and a volunteer firefighter for the city, said he's glad Friendswood had his back.
"Whatever issues they had to work through, I commend city officials for saying we're going to put some human element into it," Crochet said. "They actually thought about the people they would be putting out of their homes."
Kabiri urges flooded homeowners to discuss their options with city officials, who are advising them to elevate if at all possible. People who skirt the system and don't apply for permits might not be aware of their future risk, he said.
Friendswood is still waiting on FEMA to issue a final determination on a flood insurance map upgrade the agency proposed in 2012 for all of Galveston County, including its own map of all of Friendswood.
The agency initially intended to publish those maps sooner, said Voice, the FEMA engineer. But a number of communities in the county protested the proposed maps. Cities sometimes do that at the request of developers or residents seeking smaller flood plains to avoid costly insurance and building requirements.
FEMA did not immediately provide documents on the Galveston County map appeals. It has taken the agency several years to process them, which is not unusual. Federal regulations say only that the government must act "within a reasonable time."
Among the communities appealing was Friends-wood.

The Artisan's Asylum is a major part of the neighborhood on Tyler Street, but its presence is almost secretive.
Corpus Nova Architecture did a review of the activity in the place, and developed a scheme for a way for the home of The Artisan's Asylum to not only better support their activity but also open it up to neighbors. In addition to better serving the community, the project also includes updates to better serve accessibility and the presence of the Artisan's Asylum on Tyler Street. Development of the design was based on addressing a number of factors with options and possible requirements for phasing.

nEW PROJECT! #hOOKSOFHORROR!
So i'll be doing a new thing by the end of the month on both Twitter and the Youtube channel I comment on our videos from. I'm doing it this way because the flavor of the project doesn't quite match the rest of our content so... think of this as just one more thing you have to look forward to!
It's called #hooksofhorror and will be a weekly challenge. I'll post a video I'll be narrating with a horror prompt (Hook) which you'll have Seven days to complete. I'll be working the prompt along side anyone who chooses to partake and will be reading my result with the next week's prompt. I've been posting horror prompts for months so i'll be going back and mixing those in with new ones.
Something to keep in mind, this is purely for fun. There are no stakes, there is no thing to be won. It is purely an exercise to keep your creativity flowing. There aren't even strict guidelines to what you can produce. Writing, poetry, all things DnD/Rpg related (campaigns, hooks, adventures, creatures, characters), music, film... just get it done in seven days and post it somewhere! If it's a story and something you think I can or should narrate i'll be happy to give it a go!
I'll post another blog once I've got the first episode up with links to the appropriate Youtube and feeds. I'm fairly confident i'll be able to do so by the end of this month (July) so we'll be starting this thing in August and we'll see where it goes from there. I hope a few of you will join me in this!

After being away on a trip the child that greets you at the door with the comment, 'Where's my gift?' is revealing that his or her love language is receiving gifts. If you give someone an unexpected gift and they are completely delighted, you've probably spoken love to them.
One young man I knew used to buy his wife a bouquet of flowers or a chocolate bar on the way home. He said it wasn't the cost but the gift that mattered and it paid dividends. His wife said her love language was quality time but she was fooling herself. She lights up when she gets any kind of gift.
You can see this language clearly at Christmas. The people who give the most gifts tend to be motivated by this love language. Any suggestion of taking the money spent on Christmas gifts and buying an ox for a villager in Africa are not taken kindly.
We had friends who didn't spend time talking to each other. Their idea of a date night is enrolling in an evening class together where they work on separate projects but sit next to each other. But when they aren't feeling loved it is because they haven't received a gift in what seems like a long time to them. It may only be a month but that's devastating for them.
Children who receive love through this language will respond well to a reward system of behaviour modification. This is where you give them a star on a chart for helpful, correct behaviour. If their behaviour is negative you take away a star, only rewarding correct behaviour. At the end of the week if they have been rewarded with a set number of stars you give them a gift. They will shine with pride when they receive the reward at the end of the time.
If you are still stymied at identifying whether this is your child's love language, think about whether they are always making you something as a gift. Do they give you paintings, little toys, share candies without you asking or pick dandelions and bring them to you? These are children who love through gifts.
