If you are a business owner in Blue Springs Missouri, there will come a day when you look at "how to sell my business" as the main question you ask yourself and perhaps the first thing to type in the search box in Google or your favorite search engine. When you type in "how to sell my business in Blue Springs " I am sure you will find all kinds of information on just that. I have compiled 7 of the things most business owners don't know about or don't think about before that day (or the day of) that would certainly make the day you do sell your business a more profitable one. Most companies who visit with us are looking to find out what their business is worth first. Most business owners have no idea what their company is worth. Wouldn't you like to know about what it is worth before you hire a Blue Springs business broker (we're not brokers, by the way)?Before I go into all that let's look at the 7 biggest mistake business owners make when they get to the point of asking "how to sell my business"1. They assume they "know" what their company is worth and make up a price – Look the first problem with this approach is that your business is usually "your baby". If you have owned your business for a long time you know that you have spent more time with it than perhaps even your family, spouse and kids! It's always there, even in the back of your mind………and sometimes it is hard to understand why someone can't see your business worth the way you see it. That's okay, but it is better to have a certified 3rd party give a certified opinion or appraisal of your business.Look at it this way, if you and I were going to go downtown and buy the Hilton Hotel, we would find a qualified appraiser to give us his professional opinion, wouldn't we? We certainly wouldn't take the owner's word for it or even their accountant's word for it. We would want an independent opinion and official analysis.But you say, hey my business isn't worth that much to justify the cost. What? Even if your business is only worth $25,000, at least you would have an official 3rd party appraisal and a "floor" price you could start at. And with the discounts available when you go through someone like valuationbroker.com, you could literally add thousands if not tens of thousands to your sales price, and only pay a small percentage to have it done.I would not even consider selling any business without this step, no way, ever.You see, most business buyers are smart, like you, they have done a lot of right things to get where they are and unless they have recently inherited the money, they are sophisticated to a degree and will do their homework when looking for a company to purchase. The real advantage to having your company appraised first (by an independent 3rd party certified appraiser) is that you are the one driving the appraisal, not the buyer.2. They ask their accountant what their company is worth and use that number – You accountant is probably a very smart individual, however when coming to valuing a business or having one in on the sales process, I have one rule. I make sure they have been in on at least 10 business sales in the past 12 months, no exceptions. I have seen more deals killed by well meaning accountants. Don't make this mistake.I don't care what your accountant thinks your business is worth. I don't care what MY accountant thinks your business is worth. I want to know what the market tells me.
So that's why I want an independent look from a qualified third party to tell me the current "market value". I have seen hundreds of business owners make this mistake and it can (and has) literally meant the difference of getting only half of what they could have! Half!What's also most interesting about accountants is that they tend to favor using the book value of your business as a starting point and not the market value. Big big mistake. You'll leave a ton on the table this way. Don't do it!3. They take the number off their balance sheet and say that's what their company is worth – You balance sheet tells you the hard value of the assets you have, that's it! It doesn't take into consideration what the value of your assets are that have already been depreciated or your blue sky value, or good name, or customer base……….all things that can add tremendously to the bottom line value of your business!4. They read a few articles in INC magazine and guess a number (even saying something like "companies in my industry are selling for 3 Times earnings") They may even refer to their latest tax return for a number – Don't be fooled by this! There are so many variables even with similar businesses in the same industry. The true value of your Missouri business is NOT the same as the guy down the street, even if you do the same thing! The true value of your Blue Springs business is NOT like real estate, where you can compare with the property down the street.That is like saying the space shuttle is like a bicycle. True they are both forms of transportation, but one is a bit more complicated than the other. Again, have it appraised by a "market appraiser". Best money you will EVER spend. Ask ANYONE who has EVER sold a business! 5. They trust a FREE tool on the internet to give them the value of their business – While these free tools are valuable to help obtain a "range of value" (we have one too), they are not the complete answer and you can't use them to justify your asking price. If you have a properly done market appraisal, it will include a "justification of purchase price" section that says, "this is what your business is worth in this market, and here is why it is worth that"That is such an important step. Buyers are smart and want to know how you came to the price you did. Now you know what to do so you can stand behind your price.
Plus you will know just what the market is doing. It isn't the accountant or the balance sheet or your uncle attorney that dictates the price, it's the market! So knowing this, it is important to know just what the market price is. I have seen market prices be twice what the accountant says the business is worth!6. They haven't made their business run without them – This is a no-brainer, yet many business owners don't think of it. Your business will be worth a lot more if it can run without you there. Otherwise whoever buys it will be buying a "job". Nothing wrong with that, but realize, those businesses just are not worth as much when you go to sell them.7. They hire the wrong attorney to help them with the final paperwork (the wrong attorney could be their best friend) – This is just like the accountant, unless the attorney you use has closed 10 or more deals within the past 12 months, don't use them! So many well meaning attorneys have killed countless deals, UNNECESSARILY!I wish you well and hope you take these things to heart (and action). I have seen so many sellers walk away with a lot less than they could have, had they JUST used these few tips!Good Luck, I wish you continued success! (don't forget to get a certified third party, independent report for your business BEFORE you list it to sell) You'll be glad you did! Buying a business? Use the same concepts! Cheers!
The Best Blue Springs Missouri Business BrokersSo, you're considering selling your business. If you haven't done it before, most likely, you're not aware of all options and possibilities of selling. Let me help you to organize your thoughts and make the right choice. First, you have to decide whether you're going to do it on your own or hire a broker. You have to be aware that the process of selling a business takes a lot of time and knowledge. Simply placing ad on Craigslist won't do you any good. If you, like most business owners, have pretty hectic schedule, it will be very hard to combine running a business with servicing buyers. Every buyer assumes that she is the only one and requires your undivided attention. With every buyer you have to do the following. assure confidentiality pre-qualify financially and professionally provide your business' profile and financial statements. Additional information may be requested follow-up, follow-up, follow-up... schedule business tour negotiate terms of the purchase agreement prepare documentation and submit to escrow maintain a log of activities and current status for every buyer In the current buyer's market you have to be very prompt with your communication otherwise buyers lose interest, turn around and start looking for other opportunities. When they turned away, it's practically impossible to win them back. If it seems like too much work to combine with running your business, you have to seriously consider hiring a business broker. Qualified business broker will take over all the above activities and considerably minimize your interaction with buyers, as well as helping you with their expertise. Obviously, you have to pay commissions for broker's services, around 10-12% for businesses priced under $1 million, with declining percentage as price goes up. BEWARE OF HIRING A REAL ESTATE AGENT WHO OCCASIONALLY SELLS BUSINESSES. THEY DON'T KNOW SPECIFICS OF SELLING BUSINESSES AND WON'T BE MUCH HELP TO YOU. ASK AGENTS IF SELLING BUSINESSES IS THEIR FULL TIME JOB. Now, lets review services offered by business brokers, The process starts with business valuation (appraisal) and analysis. It is very important to correctly determine the purchase price. On one hand, you don't want to overprice the business because it won't sell. Do not try to "test waters", it never works. Only correctly-priced business will sell. On the other hand, you don't want leaving any money on the table either. Some business brokerage firms offer business valuation services free of charge to the clients who decided to list with them. Our statistics reveals that it pays off to spend more time on preparing business for sale. It increases chances of selling and conditions of sale are much more favorable to the business owner. Our business brokers work very closely with business sellers gathering necessary information, preparing Business Profile and re-casting financial statements, thus presenting your business in the most attractive way. Means of advertising vary greatly depending on business type, size and geographical coverage. Majority of businesses are advertised with internet business listing services, like bizbuysell.com and businessesforsale.com. However, sometimes it may require to advertise with trade magazines or contact potential buyers directly. Marketing team of business brokerage firm creates descriptive advertisement and determines the best advertising strategy for each client individually. It's worth mentioning that advertising with one business listing service can easily run about $40-70 per month. Good business broker publishes ads with 8-10 business listing services at no additional cost to clients. Having intermediary involved is very important for preserving confidentiality of the transaction. You don't want business buyers starting questioning your employees, vendors or customers for information about your business operation. It may start a rumor mill, cause vendors to revoke credit terms, employees starting looking for new employment, etc. Professional business broker never reveals client's business name or location until proper confidentiality agreement is signed by the buyer. It's not a secret that around 50% of buyers inquiring about a business for sale are not qualified to buy it, one way or the other. Multiply it times 25-30+ buyers and you can see how much time can be wasted. It is very important to pre-qualify every buyer early and eliminate tire-kickers. One would assume that once inquiring about your business for sale buyer will continue their communication until he or she makes final decision. One week later, still not hearing anything back from the buyer, you start wondering what's going on: if she is still interested, did she get the information that you sent her via email, etc. You would probably call and ask, however, you may be afraid that your call may be considered as a sign of despair, and you would expect that buyer should be calling you, not the other way around. Besides, if you're working concurrently with several buyers, you have to keep a very clean record of each communication, current status and follow-up activities. Yes, follow-up is very important, and organized record keeping is very important too. Business brokers use proprietary database for record keeping and scheduling follow-up activities. As a neutral third party they can communicate with both sides without weakening your position. It's not a secret that all business owners are trying to minimize their tax liability. Sometimes small business owners charge their personal or family expenses to the business too. It may work to their benefit while they're running the business, however works against them when they decide to sell. When selling, you'd like to maximize your income, thus increasing the purchase price. Business brokers do necessary adjustments to your financial statements, reflecting correct unbiased performance of your business. Business intermediaries will professionally prepare Confidential Business Profile, recast financial statements and compile all necessary information about your business that may be requested by buyers. Properly orchestrated negotiation can make a difference between deal and no deal. There is a lot of tension and agitation when people discuss money. Simple misunderstanding may cause an argument and terminate the deal. Having business intermediary as neutral third party mediating your negotiations will bring calm, business-like atmosphere and assure successful outcome. After purchase agreement is executed by both parties most business sale transactions are finalized through escrow. Majority of escrow companies do not perform "bulk sale transfer" operations, under which business sale is processed. There are only a few selected ones with no more than one escrow officer qualified to perform this duty. Having knowledgeable and responsive escrow officer is very important. She can not only save you money, but also help with drafting necessary documentation and keep informed about escrow progress. Experienced business broker can suggest you well-tested escrow company.Finding knowledgeable and dedicated business broker isn't easy. Don't rely entirely on reputation of the firm because, after all, you're working with a particular person and your success depends on her and her alone. Ask the agent how many deals he or she closed within last year and ask for references. Ask if you have the right to terminate the agreement if you're not satisfied with their service. Walk away if you don't have such right. Ask to report to you every ... "Hooold on, we're getting to the next topic." How to select a business broker will be subject of my next article. So long, Jacob Berenfeld

Thirteen British colonies fought the American Revolution from here and won their independence in the first successful colonial rebellion in history. Take a look at these rolling hills carpeted with foliage along the Hudson river here, north of New York City.The American south is known for its polite people and slow pace of life. Probably they move slowly because it's so hot. Southerners tend not to trust people from "up north" because they talk too fast. Here's a cemetery in Georgia where you can find graves of soldiers from the Civil War.The West Coast is sort of like another country that exists to make the east coast jealous. California is full of nothing but grizzly old miners digging for gold, a few gangster rappers, and then actors. That is to say, the West Coast functions as the imagination of the US, like a weird little brother who teases everybody then gets famous for making freaky art.The central part of the country is flat farmland all the way over to the Rocky Mountains. Up in the northwest corner you can find creative people in places like Portland and Seattle, along with awesome snowboarding and good beer. Text by Steve Smith.

This has been a hot debate for years. Mostly the rule is that vehicles have no problem carrying what they're designed to carry. If the cargo trailer is full of cargo, if the eight seats have eight minifigs in them, if there's a dude in the saddle and two more dudes in the gunnery chairs, those make no difference.
Now if you have non-standard passengers like a mech riding a tank like a skateboard, that's when it turns into a judgment call up to the players.

Hi everyone! We are giving you a little change of pace today, another voice in the blog. My name is Erin; I'm Matt's wife. I too am an avid runner and new pescetarian. And I've also recently gotten into road biking. I typically get to reap the benefits of Matt's delicious cooking, but truth be told, a lot of our meal planning and cooking as of late have been done together. This past Saturday though, I was left alone in the kitchen to make something out of what I presumed was nothing! We were desperate to find something to eat for lunch because it was pouring outside and neither Matt nor I wanted to venture out into the monsoon. On cold and rainy days, soups seem to be appealing so I challenged myself to create a soup or stew (it ended up being more like a stew because I let the liquid reduce to a less than soup-like consistency) out of the random ingredients that I had in my kitchen. On top of this I chose to cook with an ingredient that was new to me– quinoa!
For those of you who are unfamiliar with quinoa (like me), it is a grain that has great nutritional value! (UPDATE- It turns out that quinoa is not actually a grain; it's a grain-like "pseudocereal" because it's not a type of grass.) Not only is it high in protein, but it's a complete protein source because it contains a balanced set of essential amino acids. There are many different ways to prepare quinoa; it can be used for breakfast, lunch, dinner, or in baking. We had picked it up previously at the health food store and I decided that this meal was worth testing it out on! After all, I was determined to use as much of my random leftover ingredients as I could.
I have to be honest; I much prefer to follow a strict recipe, and I am not the best at coming up with my own creations. I, like many people out there, don't always know what spices or ingredients to combine to create the perfect taste sensation. I was very happy to learn, though, that rather than throwing the random leftover veggies into the compost, I could, without much work, create a tasty stew for us to enjoy. It was pretty quick and easy and was very pleasing to our palates. And the biggest accomplishment was that we were able to stay inside and avoid the monsoon! So for all of you at home, I would suggest trying this recipe when you are left with a variety of fresh veggies. Don't let them go to waste; be creative! For example, you could substitute celery for the chinese cabbage, fresh tomatoes for canned, or rice for the quinoa. As I was making it, I thought that it might even be good with some chipotles in adobo! Sometimes a little kick is nice (for me though, moderation is best). Try serving it with a nice whole-wheat bread to soak up some of the juices! It's yummy. It was great as leftovers too!
Quinoa and Vegetable Stew Recipe
- 2 tablespoons canola oil
- 2/3 cup quinoa
- 1 carrot, diced
- 1/2 onion, finely chopped
- 1 small head cauliflower, chopped
- 1/2 green bell pepper, seeded and chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, crushed
- 2 cups vegetable stock
- 3 1/2 cups water
- 8 canned whole peeled tomatoes, chopped
- 4 tablespoons tomato sauce (from the can with the tomatoes)
- 1-1/2 cups chinese cabbage, sliced
- 8 basil leaves, torn
- 2 bay leaves
- 4 shakes of Italian seasoning
- 2 cups baby spinach
- salt and pepper to taste
- 1/4 cup parsley, for garnish
Heat the oil in a large pot or dutch oven on medium-high heat. Stir in the quinoa, carrot, onion, bell pepper, cauliflower, and garlic. Cook for a few minutes until lightly browned, stirring frequently.
Pour in the stock, water, tomatoes and sauce, cabbage, bay leaves, Italian seasoning, basil, and spinach. Increase the heat to high and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to medium and simmer until the quinoa and vegetables are tender, about 10 minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Garnish with parsley before serving. Also don't forget to remove the bay leaves!
Serves 5-6.

Commercial Carpet Cleaning in Coleman Lake, Georgia
Your business deserves a clean carpet. Your Coleman Lake employees and customers deserve a healthy carpet. Universal Carpet Cleaning's commercial carpet cleaning in Coleman Lake, Georgia gives you what you want and your business needs.
Improve the Health Of Your Building With Carpet Cleaning
Did you know your carpet in your office building serves as a giant air filter? That is carpeting's main job, and it does it very well. Carpeted surfaces trap airborne particles, making the indoor air cleaner. But filters can only hold so much debris before they stop working. At that point, walking across dirty carpet actually releases trapped particles, making them airborne. That is why regular vacuuming and periodic professional carpet cleaning in Coleman Lake is important to the health of your building.
Clean Coleman Lake Commercial Carpets Increase Happiness
If you can tell that your carpets in Coleman Lake need professional cleaning, your employees and guests can see it too. You might already have it on your to-do list. It doesn't have to break the budget, either. Don't procrastinate any longer. Just pick up the phone and make an appointment for a free estimate by calling (706) 447-9776. Clean office carpets in Coleman Lake would make many people happy!
Save Money With Coleman Lake Commercial Carpet Cleaning
Save money by paying a contractor for commercial carpet cleaning in Coleman Lake? Yes, it's true, and for several reasons! First, customers vote with their dollars and they would rather visit an establishment that is clean. Successful businesses are clean businesses. Second, clean carpets work as great filters to remove particles from the air and improve indoor air quality. A healthy work environment promotes a happier and more productive work environment. Lastly, sand and dirt and general grit that become trapped in carpet damages the fibers just like sandpaper would. The result is frayed fibers and a prematurely worn carpet that will become a significant expense sooner rather than later. Protect your business. Vacuum that carpet daily and regularly steam clean your Coleman Lake commercial carpets.

The silence around Star Wars 1313, LucasArts' seemingly next-gen game that wowed onlookers at last June's E3 show, is nevertheless unusual. The game's disappearance, our sources say, has hidden the latest in some tumultuous turns in the game's developmentturns that, frustratingly, cloud the future of what could be an amazing game.Three unrelated sources familiar with game development at LucasArts have all told us that development on the game has been frozen or put on hold since the Disney company's November acquisition of Star Wars creator George Lucas' media empire. That freeze has caused a game that was slated for a late 2013 release on next-gen platforms to potentially miss this year's E3 and to slide into next year.
The game was conceived in 2009, we've been told privately, as a tie-in to a planned live-action Star Wars TV show. The show was set to take place between the prequel Star Wars trilogy and the classic one, as was the game. The game was called Underworld, according to one of our sources, and was, like the show, going to be for an adult audience. The 1313 title, after all, refers to the seedy underworld on the planet Coruscant, where crime, violence, drugs and other seedier elements exist. That underworld would be the setting for the show and the game.In what will surely drive fans of great Star Wars games a bit mad, Underworld/1313 was, we're told, originally going to be an open-world role-playing game similar to the beloved BioWare title Knights of the Old Republic but with episodic character updates delivered regularly over DLC. Story arcs would go to some dark places, touching on terrorism, the dealings of crime families and prostitution.We're told that the game was scaled back in 2010 after budgetary concerns put the TV show was put on hold. The game was re-written with a new story that was disconnected from the TV-show material. And this is where what our sources say gets even more interesting. LucasArts supposedly was set to reinvent itself in 2011 under then-studio-president Paul Meegan, attempting to make Star Wars-style games in popular genres. There would be a Star Wars riff on FarmVille and a Call of Duty-style first-person shooter codenamed Trigger. 1313 was switched from codename Underworld to codename Hive and given platforming elements, similar to Sony's hit series Uncharted. A LucasArts rep declined to comment about any of this.Development on the game began to proceed quite well going into either 2011 or 2012 when George Lucas himself apparently saw the game. One source mentions that Lucas "loved" the game and encouraged the developers to weave stories and characters from the TV scripts. The game's storylines would answer such questions as "Who is Boba Fett?", "Why was Han working for Jabba?" and "Who were the Bothan spies?" Lucas' requests were not to be ignored, that source says, leaving the developers of the re-named 1313 with a game that had backing from the man in charge but without a concrete story or characters. A new story was still in the works when the game was shown at E3 2012.The game dazzled at E3 and then, as any observers have noticed, went dark.One likely venue for 1313's re-emergence was last week's PlayStation 4 event. There, finally, LucasArts could stop being coy and admit the game was next-gen. But 1313 was not shown at Sony's PS4 event, though LucasArts was listed as a developer for the Holiday 2013 console.For weeks we've heard from multiple sources that the Disney purchase of LucasFilm (which includes LucasArts) has reoriented the company's gaming division. The focus is on the new trilogy, not on material that is unrelated to the planned JJ Abrams-directed Star Wars: Episode VII. 1313's developers may still be fervently plugging away, for all we know. As LucasArts says, the game "continues production." But it sounds from our sources like it's not currently moving forward in any official capacity.
Recently, a source showed IGN a 15 minute demo of 1313 that would have debuted at this year's E3. While footage in the demo was still in development and much of it was still using incomplete assets, it was the most extensive look at 1313 we've ever seen, and all of it included Boba Fett in action.We cant show you that full demo just yet, but we can tell you how it played out and what the game was about, plus reveal new pieces of concept art that give us the best glimpse yet at how Star Wars 1313 evolved before its cancellation.
Star Wars 1313 would have begun with a prologue on Tattooine. Various bounty hunters seen in the game would have worked for different crime bosses, and Boba Fett unsurprisingly served Jabba the Hutt. Here we see a young Fett very early in the game, long before he even has his Mandalorian armor, instead wearing only his most basic outfit.Since Star Wars 1313 was meant to take place between the prequel and original Star Wars trilogies, Fetts armor would have evolved throughout the story, changing and becoming stronger, more familiar, as he progressed.Coruscant was meticulously detailed, with structures seen here made up of derelict ships and spare parts (including TIE Fighter wings if you look closely). Its not hard to make out a Corellian freighter here (though our source assured us it isnt the Millennium Falcon), and you can see the gigantic scale of the environments the development team intended.Our source explained that at one point in the story, Fett would also end up in layer 1314. While 1313 is a corrupt metropolis controlled by crime families, 1314 is a rarely-explored slum that has been shrouded for years in complete darkness. Part of the story of Star Wars 1313 would have seen Fett fighting his way through layer 1314 in search of his bounty.The main thrust of our demo saw Boba Fett chasing a Trandoshan through a sprawling marketplace in level 1313. As Fett chased after his target, he ran through several storefronts, including a sort of butcher shop that featured sliced-open Tauntauns hanging from the rafters. The crime families of 1313 were using these Tauntauns to smuggle spice to other planets, a plot point that our source tells us would have been central to Star Wars 1313s story.Behind Fett is a droid companion that would have fought alongside him as his partner. Were told that this droid would eventually have betrayed Fett, but that early in the game they fought side-by-side.

Charter schools are a business for profit$
http://www.magnoliascience.org are "science" academies that are US TAX supported Charter schools through the LAUSD. The Magnolia Science Academies are run by Pacifica Institute, Willow Education, MERF (Magnolia Education & Research, and Accord Institute. These are all a part of radical moslem Fetullah Gulen's movement. 97 in the USA.
Perhaps you have heard of the Gulen Movement? Gulen is tied into politics into the USA and Turkey, This is how many of the schools are getting visits from "local politicians". Gulen has 600 schools worldwide and is estimated to be worth $25 billion. The schools immigrant teachers from Turkey on HB-1 Visas (you and I are paying for this) The Turkish teachers are uncredentialed. The schools boast of high standards, awards, and honors. Only these "honors" are won at Gulen sponsored or OWNED contests like: The Science Olympaid, Math Matters, Turkish Olympaid. Oh yes, the kids put on a big production in Arizona, Texas, Atlanta to showcase the Turkish Singing, Dancing and Poetry they learn at Magnolia. Compelte with the Islamic Flag of Turkey on Stage and waved in the audience.
They are filmed by ERBU TV, written up by Zaman, Fountain, and other GULEN OWNED media. Then the American Children from Gulen schools are taken to Turkey (only the schools call it a European Trip) for the big SHOW in Ankara, Turkey to perform for Erdogan, Gul and other Turkish politicans.
I invite you to look up the numerous layers of foundations and instiutions throughout the USA, this is only the west coast information. Also for free you can inspect IRS 990 forms at www.guidestar.com http://www.guidestar.org/FinDocuments/2008/061/708/2008-061708283-04c605...

MANLIUS — For some people, their days at a one-room rural schoolhouse were the best days of their lives.
But retired schoolteacher Fran Larson can't look back at her days at the tiny Littlefield School southwest of Manlius without shaking her head.
"I was the only student in my class all eight years, so therefore I had no competition, which I think is a negative," she said.
And the issue was bigger than no competition. Larson said she has all kinds of admiration for the teachers, but she doesn't agree with people who think the education was the best.
"I don't feel that way at all," she said. "I'm just amazed that we learned as much as we did because the teachers were so stretched, from the first grade to the eighth grade."
Larson doesn't fault her teachers, especially Ortha Jorgeson, who taught her eighth-grade class.
"I think the education we had was the best we could have," she said. "That was the only education we could have, and it was OK; but it doesn't compare with the education we have today."
Larson said the students missed out on things such as science and art classes.
Larson said it was nice for the younger children to be able to listen to their older classmates' lessons.
"But by the time you got to be in seventh or eighth grade, at least in my experience, I spent most of the time teaching the first-graders how to read," she said. "I think that's why I decided to become a teacher."
Larson said when she was a student, Bureau County had tests the students needed to pass.
"We had tests from the county — I think every month — and that always made me a little nervous," she said. "Then when you got to seventh grade, you had to go into Manlius and take tests before you could go on."
Despite Larson's concerns, she passed her tests and moved on to Manlius High School before getting her teaching degree from Western Illinois University.
Outside the classroom, Larson had nothing but fun with her classmates.
"The poor teachers, they had all these classes, and they were busy at recess," she said. "We just went out, and when I think back on it, played some dangerous games."
Games like Skin the Cat on the swingset and bicycle wars.
"We'd get on our bikes at recess time, and there would be some of us in this group, and across the road, that was the other hideout," she said with a laugh. "We'd go back and forth and we'd yell, 'Stop in the name of the law!' and we'd ram into them."
Larson said it's a wonder no one ever got hurt, but she doesn't remember a single broken bone during her years at Littlefield.
"We had a lot of fun, but when I think of it now, it was pretty wild," she said. "But, you know, if we got hurt, our parents weren't going to be suing, either."
Other good times were the play days held every year.
"The different country schools in the spring would have a day, and we'd all go to one of the schools and play baseball and stuff, and that was a big deal," she said. "That was a lot of fun."
There was generally never more than two girls in the entire school, so Larson whooped and hollered with the boys.
"My mom went to the teacher and asked if it would be OK if I wore jeans to school," she said.
Larson also remembered the entertainments held for the PTA meetings.
"I remember a lot of play practice," she said. "Three or four times a year we had quite a little production, which I guess is good, but I don't know anybody who went into theater."
Larson has many fond memories of the children she went to school with, although many have since passed away.
"It was, in some respects, such a nice time," she said.

The Dolphins will announce in the coming minutes that they have signed former Cinncinati kicker
Shayne Graham.
Graham will fill in on Sunday for Dan Carpenter, who is battling a groin injury that will prevent him from playing against the Buffalo Bills. Graham is in his 11th NFL season. He kicked seven seasons with Cincinnati and most recently was with the New England Patriots.
Graham was 12 of 12 on field goals and 35 if 37 on extra points for the Patriots last season. He is, by the way, a field goal kicker of high regard. His kickoffs?
Not exactly a boomer. But you must remember he'll be kicking from 5 yards closer than he has previously in his career so the issue is mitigated.

From Beijing to Amman. Next up? Moscow. For family and friends who want to follow our adventures, this is it...

The Weekly RoundUp, Sponsored by Me
They were chatting about the RoundUp, and whether anyone had volunteered to do it recently. I chimed in with a simple, innocent "boy do I love that RoundUp," and the next thing you know, I was rounding up myself. The responsibility is staggering, but I'll try my best.
So here goes.
The big news in the FS-blogosphere is the demise of EF'M's blog. He apparently decided to hang up his hat and work out some personal issues offline. Offline? Is there even such a thing? Here's hoping he is simply suffering through his 10-day-freak-out (that's what we called it in Beijing, because right around day 10 at post, every single spouse snapped and did something crazy - like call up the husband and threaten to fly out on the next plane, with or without kids, but definitely without the husband). Maybe he'll be back when he's recovered? Here's hoping...
Out with the old, in with the new. Amy from Ottawa has a blog you never knew about, and if you're a crafty type, you'll want to stop by. She knits the cutest sweaters ever, when she's not walking the dog, baking cookies or reminiscing about the old days in China.
Let's see, what else happened this week? Well, for starters, Michel at Facts are Strictly Optional is finally back from her accidental TDY to Kuwait, and what's the first thing she decides to do when she returns to the office? Move the furniture, of course. How this woman has managed to not be fired, I have no idea - if her stellar work ethic doesn't get her, then her expletive-laden blog certainly should. But she's the funniest blogger in the whole of the FS, so click on over and read about her Al-Qa-ida sleeper credenza and her run-in with the OSHA enforcers.
Over at FSI, Destination Diplomacy is busy cramming Spanish into her brain. Digger is also studying at FSI - she got to hang with other FSI language students, and did you know she understands Hebrew, German, Finnish, Danish, Dutch, and probably Icelandic, too? Seriously, Finnish? I've met Finns who don't understand Finnish. Pretty impressive, in an "I've been in Amman for almost 2 months and still don't know how to count to ten in Arabic" sort of way. Digger also got to hang out with one-half of Fabling. The other half is currently having a bit of culture shock in Northern Virginia.
Connie is celebrating Peace One Day with her kids in Amman. While she's celebrating peace, Daring Adventure is over in DC, discussing "How to Win a Knife Fight" with Mr. Fitscrap, her kick-ass husband who could apparently shoot you right straight in your center-mass if you tick him off enough.
Brand New Day got stung by a bee in Vienna. Shannon did not get stung by a bee in Malawi. She also didn't get killed by a black mamba snake, a hammerkop, a tadpole, a Power's Rain Frog, a centipede or any of the other strange creatures that inhabit her backyard. Those creatures run scared when they see Shannon's family. Because her boys eat bugs. See what I mean, people? First you start wearing toe socks, and then you graduate to toe shoes. You hold a giant grub, next thing you know you're munching it down. And speaking of bugs, here's a special shout-out to Zoe, for linking to the nastiest article you've ever read.
Denise is getting ready to leave for Dhaka - hopefully with her finally-repaired camera in tow. The Consul's Files is musing about consular services. The Skeptical Bureaucrat is giving us the view from Colombia, where there was recently a raid on a jungle camp, resulting in the death of one FARC leader and one government dog. Somewhere in Afghanistan, Afghan Plan has posted some lovely, if somewhat plagiarized, photos. And if you check out his sidebar, you'll even get to see his favorite MREs, ranked in order of deliciousness. You know, in case you've had your fill of bugs.
I like reading Just Us for a couple of reasons. First, they have 5 kids, which is one more than we have, so when my house gets all loud and crazy, I can console myself with the fact that they are possibly louder and crazier. Second, we're practically neighbors. Next door in Jerusalem, they are having the same issues with their shipments as us: The car is here. You will get it on Tuesday. Oops, the car is not here. But you will still get it on Tuesday. The car is maybe here, but do you still want it? Where is your proof of insurance? Oh, wait, that's not your car. We will deliver your car shortly. Maybe. Hopefully. Inshallah.
Zoe is pondering Facebook Friends and the Foreign Service this week. Now's your chance to friend her: she's up to 666 friends, a number that clearly won't do. Sadie's settling down in Saudi - diving, but not driving. The Criplomats sold their 20-year-old Volvo.
Emily confesses that she usually lets her husband edit her blog posts, just so so doesn't accidentally confess to dreams of fame. Noble Glomads confesses that she sent her husband and son on a hike up an active volcano in the middle of a major storm. Julie didn't have to hike up a mountain to find a storm: she had one right in her house, in Nouakchott. (The first person to find Nouakchott on a map wins the prize! What's the prize, you ask? Congratulations! You get to do the RoundUp next week!)
Still haven't gotten enough of FS blogs for the week? Well, Hannah has put 'em all together into one huge google reader bundle. Stop by her blog to figure out how to subscribe to them all at once. And then stop by Daring Adventure to sign up for your turn to round these FS folks up!

LOVED IT, LOVED IT, LOVED IT! Bravo! I know it was a whole lot of work but you made it look effortless; the sign of true talent! I am enjoying your blog as we fell in love with Jordan during a vacation from our post in Oman. PS - after 3 years in the Middle East I still sadly don't know how to count to 10 in Arabic. Also loved your Beijing adventure as we were posted there 3 years before Oman. Keep up the great blogging! You are an inspiration to the rest of us!

"Light is a powerful substance," Turrell explains. "We have a primal connection to it. But, for something so powerful, situations for its felt presence are fragile. . . . I like to work with it so that you feel it physically, so you feel the presence of light inhabiting a space," he says. "My desire is to set up a situation to which I take you and let you see. It becomes your experience."
One of the largest installations the artist has ever mounted and the result of nearly six years of planning, Aten Reign will materialize the light and the air that fill the expanse of the Guggenheim rotunda. The work proposes an entirely new encounter with the building, as attention is drawn away from the boundaries of the built environment and toward the interior space, creating what Turrell has described as "an architecture of space created with light." For the first time, the rotunda can be experienced only from below—not as an open void to be looked across, but as a mass of vibrant color that expands and contracts above the heads of visitors.
In Aten Reign, daylight enters from the museum's oculus, streaming down to light the deepest layer of a massive assembly suspended from the ceiling of the museum. Using a series of interlocking cones lined with LED fixtures, the installation surrounds this core of daylight with five elliptical rings of shifting, colored light that echo the banded pattern of the museum's ramps. As is typical of Turrell's work, the apparatus that creates the effect is mostly hidden from view, encouraging viewers to interpret what they see by means of their own perception. The work promotes a state of meditative contemplation in a communal viewing space, rekindling the museum's founding identity as a "temple of spirit," in the words of Hilla Rebay, the Guggenheim's first director and a pioneer in the promotion of nonobjective art.
Aten Reign also relates to Turrell's Roden Crater Project (1979– ), his magnum opus currently under construction in the desert outside Flagstaff, Arizona. When complete, the modified extinct volcano will house nearly two dozen separate installations, many carefully aligned with astronomical phenomena and all incorporating natural luminance. According to Turrell, the project was informed by the design of ancient observatories, which were oriented to celestial events. The Guggenheim itself echoes ancient architecture—Wright imagined it as an inverted ziggurat—and Aten Reign's elliptical shape bears similarities to certain spaces at Roden Crater and Agua de Luz (an elliptical, stepped pyramid Turrell built in the Yucatan in 2012). Just as the natural world is an inspirational force for Turrell, so it was for Wright, who was fond of the open landscape of the American West, making his second home in Arizona.
Offering a complement and counterpoint to Aten Reign is a selection of Turrell's early works, some drawn from the museum's Panza Collection and others on loan. These pieces offer a sample of the artist's various installation types and link the new project to his work of the 1960s and 1970s.James Turrell is one of three concurrent, independently curated presentations of the artist's work in summer 2013. Together, the exhibitions at the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum, New York, the Museum of Fine Arts, Houston, and the Los Angeles County Museum of Art form a three-part retrospective across the country.Born in Los Angeles in 1943 to a Quaker mother and a father who was a school administrator, James Turrell attended Pomona College, where his studies concentrated on psychology and mathematics. He later received a master's degree in Art from Claremont Graduate School.
James Turrell is curated by Carmen Giménez, Stephen and Nan Swid Curator of Twentieth-Century Art, Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum, and Nat Trotman, Associate Curator, Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum. The show is accompanied by a fully illustrated, 128-page catalogue detailing the production of Aten Reign (2013) and situating it in the context of the artist's career.

CLEVELAND — Zach McAllister and two relievers combined on a shutout and the Cleveland Indians scored an unearned run in the fifth inning for their eighth win in nine games, 1-0 over the Oakland Athletics on Tuesday night.
McAllister, Rich Hill, and Chris Perez limited the highest-scoring offense in the majors to six hits and did not allow a runner to reach second base.
McAllister (3-3) struck out four and walked one in 7 2/3 innings. The right-hander was pulled after John Jaso's two-out single in the eighth. Hill then retired pinch-hitter Luke Montz to end the inning, and Perez pitched the ninth for his fourth save.
Tommy Milone (3-4), who lost a career-worst fourth straight start, was done in by shoddy defense and no run support. The Indians managed only five hits, but errors by first baseman Brandon Moss and second baseman Eric Sogard on the same play in the fifth led to the only run, which scored on Yan Gomes' sacrifice fly.
The Athletics have scored a total of five runs during Milone's losing streak after putting up 28 in his first three outings. The left-hander struck out five and walked none in seven innings.
Yoenis Cespedes singled with one out in the ninth, but was thrown out trying to steal second by Gomes. Moss struck out on a 3-2 pitch to end the game.
The unusual fifth inning started when Carlos Santana's ground ball glanced off Moss' glove and rolled to Sogard, whose throw to Milone covering first was wild. The ball skipped past Oakland's dugout and rolled behind home plate. Santana ended up at second and Moss and Sogard were charged with errors.
Santana moved to third on Mike Aviles' single and scored on Gomes' sacrifice fly to deep center.
The inning took another strange turn when Aviles broke for second and was caught off first by Milone's throw. Sogard appeared to tag Aviles, but second base umpire Paul Nauert ruled the runner was safe. Aviles was credited with a stolen base.
Oakland manager Bob Melvin angrily argued the call with Nauert and gave a disgusted wave to first base umpire John Tumpane on his way off the field, but he wasn't ejected.
McAllister retired the first seven hitters before Sogard beat out an infield hit. Shortstop Asdrubal Cabrera circled to the ball but his long throw pulled Santana off the bag at first.
Milone sent down the first six hitters before Ryan Raburn doubled to lead off the third. Raburn took third on a groundout, but was stranded when Gomes grounded out and Drew Stubbs struck out.
Jason Kipnis started the fourth with a double, but his bid to steal third went awry when he broke too early from second. Instead of throwing to the plate, Milone threw to third baseman Josh Donaldson, who tagged Kipnis. Nick Swisher singled with two outs, but Mark Reynolds hit into a fielder's choice.
McAllister threw a 1-1 pitch at Donaldson's feet with two outs and nobody on in the second. Donaldson glared at McAllister over the pitch, which could have been a response to Reynolds being hit by Jarrod Parker following two Indians home runs on Monday.
NOTES: OF Michael Bourn (lacerated right index finger) played his first rehab game at Triple-A Columbus, going 1 for 3 with a walk, two strikeouts, and a stolen base. ... OF Michael Brantley, who started 28 of the first 29 games, wasn't in the lineup against Milone. Drew Stubbs batted leadoff for the third time this season and Mike Aviles started in left field. ... Indians manager Terry Francona said a scan of RHP Vinnie Pestano's sore elbow came back clean. Pestano was placed on the disabled list Monday, retroactive to May 1. ... OF Ezequiel Carrera, designated for assignment Sunday, cleared waivers and was sent outright to Columbus.

(LINCOLN CITY, Ore.) — A girl playing on an Oregon beach died Friday when a large hole she was playing in collapsed and buried her, officials told ABC News.
Frantic efforts by others on the beach were unable to rescue the 9-year-old girl.
"When we arrived on the scene with some of our officers, people were trying to dig the girl out of a fairly large hole, but the thing kept collapsing back in on them," Lt. Jerry Palmer of the Lincoln City police department said.
"When they finally got her out she was unconscious and not breathing," Palmer said.
Fire Rescue Capt. Jim Kusz said the girl was under the sand for about five minutes.
Palmer said his officers performed CPR on the girl until medics arrived, but when she was taken to the hospital "she was not breathing." She was later pronounced dead.
The lieutenant said he did not know whether the girl, who was not immediately identified, had dug the hole or was playing in a hole that she had found on the beach.

Teaching as a Profession Teaching chose me. During my undergrad years, I was a camp counselor at Red Arrow Camp in Minocqua, Wisconsin. Actually, Chris Farley was a camper in my cabin for about two summers. Can you imagine going canoeing with a young Chris Farley? When I graduated from college I didn't have a teaching certificate; in fact, my first job was in sales. It appeared that I would be good at sales, but I was encouraged to oversell to my customers—to me, this was dishonest. I couldn't live with myself and do what I was told, so I quit and started working a general labor job. After a while of working with molten steel, I decided to pursue another career and went back to school to get a second degree in education. Now I don't feel dishonest in my job and only lie to my students when I play devil's advocate.
Professional Accomplishments Receiving the Great Teacher Award at Mount Union was quite humbling. There are so many of my colleagues at Mount Union who deserve this award. I felt quite blessed to be chosen, but I think that I feel proudest when former students come back and share stories with me about how they've made a difference in children's lives—that's a big, BIG deal.
Teaching Style I try to keep things as interactive as possible and be as humane as possible. I tell stories of my successes and failures in teaching and try to show them that our failures are probably our greatest learning experiences. Jokes (at least they're funny to me), lateral thinking puzzles, dance cards, etc. are ways that I try to mix it up.
Global Research My most recent research project involved global mindset and a four-month trip that took me to India , Singapore, Japan and South Africa where I interviewed over 100 students about cosmopolitanism. This research has added to my expertise regarding international comparisons of educational systems. Believe me when I tell you that students around the world can be just as engaging as they are right here at Mount Union.
Best Part of the Job No doubt about it, it's the TEACHING. My students are the best.

A cardigan is a knitted sweater with buttons or a zipper on the front, which sets it apart from regular knitwear.
A cardigan is a very casual knitted top that works well with a t-shirt, giving you a casual look. It's still possible to wear a cardigan for work and in the office. If you want a business look with a cardigan, you have to wear a shirt and tie as well. It gives a more casual look than a pullover, but a more business minded look than a turtleneck. It's the golden mean.

Speaking at the National Cattlemen's Beef Association annual meeting in Nashville, the secretary said the Fiscal Year 2004 funding request will be $1.9 billion higher or nearly double the amount available when the Bush administration took office two years ago.
Much of the funding will be required to pay for the "new and improved" conservation programs that Congress authorized when it passed the Farm Security and Rural Investment Act of 2002. But Veneman seemed to be eager to take credit for any administration role in the increased funding.
"This Administration has worked hard to ensure strong environmental programs are available to our nation's farmers and ranchers," said Veneman. "Farmers and ranchers are the best stewards of the land, and we will continue to ensure these programs are administered effectively and in the best interest of producers and the environment."
Nearly $3.5 billion of the conservation proposals will be used for financial assistance or other direct payments to farmers, including the following:
$2 billion for the Conservation Reserve Program for rental and other costs on new and old acreage, an increase of approximately $140 million over 2003;
$850 million will be provided for the EQIP program, a $255 million increase above FY 2003;
$250 million for the Wetlands Reserve Program to enroll an additional 178,000 acres;
$112 million for the Farmland Protection Program, which is $27 million over the 2003 level;
$112 million for the Farmland Protection Program, which is $27 million over the 2003 level;
$85 million for the Grassland Reserve Program, a $13 million increase over 2003.
$42 million for the Wildlife Habitat Incentives Program, an increase of $16 million over 2003;
- $19 million for the new Conservation Security Program on which an Advanced Notice of Proposed Rule (ANPR) is expected shortly.
The Conservation Security Program was the centerpiece of the new conservation proposals offered by Sen. Tom Harkin, D-Iowa, while he was chairman of the Senate Agriculture Committee before the Republican victories in last fall's mid-term elections. Some had questioned whether the administration would push to fully fund the program.
Veneman said the president's budget ensures that all of the cost-share and technical assistance conservation work authorized by the 2002 farm bill for FY 2004 will be delivered. USDA will use an additional $432 million, through a new Farm Bill Technical Assistance account, to ensure farmers and ranchers can access the technical work necessary to fully utilize the conservation programs' financial assistance.
This new account, which the Administration initially proposed for FY 2003 at $333 million, is necessary because of a statutory cap that restricts USDA's ability to pay for technical assistance from farm program funds.
"In the short time this Administration has been in office, we are more than doubling our investment in environmental and conservation programs that not only benefit farmers and ranchers, but communities throughout the country," said Veneman. "This record-level request illustrates the priority the president places on conserving natural resources by providing landowners the tools they need for private land management.
During her remarks, Veneman also announced that the proposed rule for the Environmental Quality Incentives Program, reauthorized in the 2002 farm bill, is being released for publication in the Federal Register for public comment. This will allow farmers and ranchers the ability to utilize program funding in the coming year.
Highlights of the revised EQIP proposal include a reduction in the amount of planning requirements needed to develop a contract; provides up to 90 percent cost share for limited resource and beginning producers; allowance of producers to have more than one contract per tract at any given time; allocates 60 percent of EQIP funds towards livestock related practices; and, eliminates the program's dual administration by delegating EQIP to the Natural Resources Conservation Service.
The new EQIP will also provide livestock producers with cost share assistance for waste storage facilities regardless of size, but they must develop and implement a comprehensive nutrient management plan to qualify.
"Conservation incentive programs for working lands, in combination with technical assistance, help reduce the regulatory burden on farmers and ranchers faced with air and water quality restrictions," Veneman said. "The team at USDA has worked to ensure these proposed rules are producer-friendly and will achieve the intended results of these programs."
Comments on the EQIP proposal will be accepted for 30 days after publication. Additional information on EQIP and other conservation programs is on the USDA Web-site at http://www.nrcs.usda.gov/.
During her remarks, Secretary Veneman also discussed other issues of importance to cattle producers, including animal disease protection programs, risk management tools, trade, food safety, country-of-origin labeling, and forest management. For a transcript of her remarks, as well as a summary of USDA's mid-term accomplishments, visit http://www.usda.gov/.

One day he found out via Twitter that I was hosting a party for geneabloggers in the Midwest. Then the number of people coming started increasing. Then he started buying things and telling me that I owed him, which I totally did. Then he told me he would use his sword to keep everyone out.
So I told our guests that there my husband would be playing bouncer at the door with his sword. I don't think they really believed me. But this is how they were welcomed into our home (mostly because Harold Henderson wouldn't enter without seeing the sword).
He thought he was so scary, but everyone else thought it was hilarious and made him pose.

There have been rumors of an integrated fingerprint scaner for the iPhone 5s for a while, and a recent part leak have added more credibility to the idea. Now Apple might be ready to start testing it in actual iPhone 5s prototypes, however, according to 9to5Mac:
[The] new Home button's design will not be noticeably convex. Perhaps the shape has changed, but the tweaked button is nothing distinct enough for the iPhone 5s to be identified as anything but an iPhone 5 by the untrained eye. There's the possibility, however, that the etching and border of the Home button could become more shiny and look slightly different.
The fingerprint scanner for the iPhone 5s is said to work quite well, especially compared to similar scanners found on other devices, which tend to be of questionable quality. Apple acquired fingerprint scanner-manufacturer Authentec last year, and the sensor is said to be a product of their technology. Despite the presence of the scanner, the shape and look of the Home button is not expected to change much if at all.
Security is the driving force behind the inclusion of a fingerprint scanner: Apparently, a very small percentage of iPhone owners actually use a passcode on their device, and a fingerprint sensor could take some of the hassle out of security. From the sound of it, the fingerprint scanner on the 5S will be on by default, with the user able to turn it off in Settings.
Do you think you'll use a fingerprint scanner instead of, or in addition to, a passcode?

SFA take time over Levein future
There will be no knee-jerk reaction from the Scottish Football Association over Craig Levein's position as Scotland manager, according to chief executive Stewart Regan.
Pressure has intensified on the national team boss after a 2-0 defeat to Belgium left the Scots bottom of their World Cup qualifying group. Scotland have taken just two points from four games - the only nation in the section without a win so far - and have little hope of booking a place at Brazil in 2014.
Levein has made it clear he has no intention of quitting and the SFA will assess the situation over the coming days. Regan told BBC Scotland: "Now is not the time to be making announcements and decisions. That's something that'll happen over the course of the next few days."
He added: "It's important to look at the situation and allow those involved to actually put their thoughts across the table. It's important that we actually sit down, look at the facts and then decide on the next steps. When we've had a chance to do that then we'll decide what happens next."
Levein still has the backing of a number of his players and defender Christophe Berra believes the SFA need only consult the squad to determine the feeling within the camp.
He said: "They just need to ask the players. The players enjoy turning up, there aren't as many call-offs as there used to be in the past. We've got a bright group of players and we are all fighting for the right cause. There is no-one turning up who isn't giving 100%. We all are.
"In club football, international football, whatever line of work you are in, if you're not getting results, there is going to be speculation that puts people under pressure. The boys like working under the manager and I think he's done well for us.
"I know it's a results-based game but we think, at the moment, we've got one of the most talented Scottish groups for a long time. In the end, we are the ones who go on the pitch and try to win the games."
Berra's thoughts were echoed by James McArthur, who wants to see Levein remain at the helm and for the players to shoulder more responsibility.
The midfielder said: "I would love him to stay. I think he's a brilliant manager. He has done everything right by the players. The players think he's very good and we are just unfortunate that we've not got the results. It's down to us players, we should be getting the results. The gaffer is putting us out there and we're not doing it - that's all I can really say about that."
