Horseplayers Racing Club prides itself on being a professionally run organization focused on bringing our partners a high quality race horse ownership experience. We provide timely and frequent updates to our partners on all the appropriate training, racing and breeding action. As a result, our partner loyalty and satisfaction rates are high. Below you'll see a few examples of our satisfied partner's comments.
George B from Texas
Your responsiveness and flexibility set HRC apart from other Partnerships I have dallied with in the past.
Patrick D from California
I got involved with the club just over a year ago. I initially picked 2 young horses based on pedigree and racing jurisdictions. Come to find out you offer many different levels of participation in the industry for just about anyone who wants to enjoy this fantastic sport. You provide timely updates, always respond to emails and questions, provide winner circle photos, and access to the stables. For me it's been an all around top notch experience. I recently lost a horse via claim but that hasn't curbed my enthusiasm as my results are unheard of in the sport. 21 races, 6 wins, and 8 placings, black type, and career earnings during that span of 140k. 28.5% win percentage and 66% in the money. Well done and a big thank you!
Carole L From Virginia
I would like to thank you for reaching out to every partner, no matter how large% or how small%. I have been in a lot of partnerships, and I have to say, this one is the best. You always answer questions (no matter how stupid they are) in a timely manner. Every horse cannot be a winner, but you always have your partners interests at heart. You always answer my emails in a timely fashion (although it may not be what I want to hear at times) and you are always honest. I retired recently and had to reduce my holdings in some of the partnerships I am in, all of a sudden, I stopped getting an answer on the phone when I called them, or emails from the partnerships, except from you. I have been in your partnerships for what, 8 yrs, I don't know, but I know you run the best partnership I have found. Thank you for being honest, never forget that! You are welcome to post this on your website if you wish, I stand by every word of it. Thanks and good luck to us!
Mike B From Alaska
I am in my 2nd HRC group (looking at a third) and would echo the points made above.This is the best organization that I have found for three and low four figure entry into thoroughbred racing. If you have always thought about getting into racing, HRC is ideal for experiencing racing from a recreational angle and finally getting some skin in the game (without raiding the kids college fund or getting a second mortgage on the house).
A few key advantages of HRC for me:Financial: Often it is not the upfront cost of a racehorse but the monthly costs that can be the bigger financial hurdle. Here you can be in for as little as 1-3% (or as high as you'd like). HRC is an ideal mechanism to spread the costs so they are reasonable for you. Expertise: Partners get people on their side: an experienced manager, a proven trainer, and even team members at the track.
You get the benefits of their experience (HRC is on partnership #150 currently!). So they know the pitfalls and have streamlined the process, making it easy for you. Fun: Whether you are at the track or watching online, you can get into a professional sport at a very low price point and a very high excitement level. You get the whole process: workout reports, looking at potential races, the entry, and the big race day (something I look forward to each month now). Horses are unpredictable–so you really need people you can rely on. Scott and team fits the bill.
Doug H from Florida
"I first went to Penn National about 35yrs ago. I've been handicapping and loving the races ever since. I never knew anything about owning a race horse, you gotta have lots of money to do that, right? It was just a few years ago when I first heard about partnerships, a less expensive way to own a part of a race horse. Still the skeptic, I got involved with two of them. The first just wasn't the level I hoped it would be. The second, I'll admit, had a few winners, just don't ask questions, or offer any input, you won't like the responses you get. So that one didn't go so well. I came up with my list of requirements if I'm going to join another horse racing partnership and started shopping.
I found Scott Gruender and HRC. I wrote Scott and said, "I'm in S. Florida, I want to go to the track and watch my horse run. I want to be one of the people in the paddock, be along the rail during the morning work outs, or just visit 'em at the stables. I want to ask questions why certain things happen, and get a professional reply." I was probably a little more demanding in that first email, but I knew what I expected. And the reply I got from Scott blew me away. Scott is one of the most professional individuals I've corresponded with. He completely listened to what was important to me, and told me exactly how he does things. He told me what he had available and why he thought it would be what i was looking for. Sounds good, now it's time to produce.
Scott came through with everything he promised in that first email. He set me up to visit my first horse at the barn, watch a morning work out, and I was right there in
the paddock on race day. From there things continued to grow. I've become a little more involved with some other horses, in areas that I was completely unfamiliar with.
I continue to write question after question, and Scott continues to reply with answers that go the extra mile with thought, concise explanations, and professionalism.
I have learned more about racing, than I knew existed in the past six months, all the rules of the tracks, claims, you name it. Scott will always take the time to provide information, or answer your questions. What ever level of involvement you seek, I assure you, you won't find a better fit than HRC. Scott does exactly what he says he will. He will make thoroughbred ownership fun, bring people together and form new friendships, and most of all,, treat you with the upmost respect. Every involvement in horse racing that I seek, is right here with HRC."
Mark H from Washington
"Growing up near Arlington Race Course in Chicago, I always wondered what it was like to be on the other side of the paddock fence before a race, to understand the horse's training from the inside out and to feel the rush of greeting your horse in the winner's circle. In the past year, I've had the opportunity to realize all these dreams. The realization of these dreams-turned-experiences were largely due to the great management style and professionalism that Scott brought to the table.
I believe that his demonstrated skills in the business, as well as relationship building and manner when welcoming new, prospective owners not only will help ensure that my family's experiences inside the paddock will continue to be remarkable, but I also believe that it is this rare combination of professional skills and personal touch that will engender greater participation for his group as it continues to grow and prosper."
Dave B from Washington
"Prior to becoming partners in Scott's group, we had no knowledge of horse racing. Scott continues to inform and educate us all in aspects of racing, as well as in-depth information on the partnership horses.
Scott seems to have a natural love for the sport as well as the horses. His commitment to the partners and high level of integrity go beyond his role. We have grown to completely enjoy the sport and being a part of racehorse ownership, largely due to his efforts."
Mike V from Illinois
"I can attest to a high level of communication and insight that Scott provides on a regular basis. I've been involved in a few different racing partnerships and Scott's is by far the best. His communication style is direct, well thought out and very informative. He sends out regular communication and shares his conversations with trainers. It is much more than just the day we are racing, race number and post. I think that all the 'small guys' are made to feel like big time owners and that is how Scott makes me feel, whether I own 1% of a horse or 20%."
Kent K from Illinois
"I have been a partner in three different partnership groups the last few years. I'm happy to have found Scott Gruender's Horseplayers Racing Club. The trouble with the first groups I invested in was communicating with the General Manager – there was none. The second club I invested in – the trouble was no communication and still awaiting my portion of winnings and claim money from the horse I owned over six months ago.
I met Scott through a friend and promised myself one more last time. Well, Scott and his team have been a joy to be partners with. He is always there via e-mail or phone. Statements come from Debra on time and correct the first of every month. It has been a dream come true! And a bonus has been that my two horses have won three races already. I trust Scott and Debra – I have no trouble sending them checks when needed and I would strongly encourage anyone interested in joining us in the Sport of Kings to look no further than Horseplayers Racing Club!"
Tom L from California
"I am hoping that many people like me will see this and know that you can have a pice of horse racing for a small amount of money and have a great time doing it. I am a blue collar worker, married with kids and live in California. I live within minutes from Santa Anita, Hollywood Park, Del Mar and Los Alimitos. Most of these tracks are considered some of the best in the world.
I am older and started getting interested in horse racing late. When I picked up the DRF and saw that people were offering partnerships, I e-mailed several of them. Some of the partnerships never responded, some e-mailed back and and said send money. However, when I came across Scott and Debbie at HRC, they responded to every question I had without pressure and actually encouraged me to ask more questions. They not only told me about how the club worked, but about horse pedigrees and the racing business in general. HRC sends out e-mails almost weekly on the various horses and partnerships. They arrange for barn tours, race day seats, etc. When one of my horses win, don't tell anyone but they've been winning alot, we are given a winner's circle photo.
I have invested in several of their partnerships and there are monthly fees, but they are reasonable and Debbie will work with you on payments. I feel that they do this not to only earn a living, but also for the love of horse racing. I really recommend this partnership club. I have explored others while a member of this club, thinking I could branch out, but the customer service with others is in the toilet.
Again, let me say I don't have a lot of extra money and this partnership is perfect for me. If you have any questions, do what I did and e-mail Scott and ask before you spend a dime. I feel very confident in them and am happy to be a part of this partnership. As they say somewhere on their website, 'May all your tickets be winners!'"
Robert from Texas
"My wife and I were brand new to the idea of thoroughbred partnerships about a year go. We live in Texas and were looking for a parntership that races horses n our area. There aren't too many to choose from, but fortunately HRC does. We started off cautiously at first and took baby steps to see how things would go. Our experiences has been nothing short of fantastic. Scott Gruender and his wife Debbie operate HRC. They are extremely helpful and informative. If excellent communication, affordability, low pressure and honesty are what you are after this is without a doubt the right partnership for you. HRC specializes in affordable buy-ins. If you're looking to spend $100,000 on a yearling, this is not the group for you. HRC is a family friendly partnership where you can be active or passive as you'd like. You will definitely receive regular updates on your horses, an e-mail monthly newsletter with updates on all the HRC horses, news of additions to the stable and all that. My wife and I now own interests in several HRC horses, including racing and breeding partnerships. HRC makes it affordable and fun. You don't need to be filthy rich to be a part of the Sport of Kings.

Last year for Steve's birthday I wanted to surprise him and take him to a restaurant that he enjoyed at the Silver Spoon Awards the year before that. But as soon as he got in the car he guessed exactly where I picked. So this year being able to plan a night out in NYC, I knew I could surprise him.
After a train ride down the West Village, we enjoyed a delicious dinner at Tremont. When I was searching for restaurants, I saw "Tremont" pop up and had to click on it, to only find this on their website:
..and knew that this would be the perfect place. The food was delicious. Here is a little view:
Can never have enough Gnocchi
The birthday boy
The next stop was my original plan for his birthday. The name of the bar was called Bar & Books. It is a whiskey and cigar bar that on the inside looks like a dark, old library out of a James Bond movie.
We ended the night with a few games of darts at the bar down the street and Steve trying to put red wine in his new Soda Stream (which did not end well in a mostly white apartment)!

Woman's Committee of the Council of National Defense
Minute Women of Washington
by Shanna Stevenson
Woman's Committee of the Council of National Defense
This group was organized as part of the efforts of the Woman's Committee, Council of National Defense, chaired by Dr. Anna Howard Shaw. In Washington State, Mrs. Winfield (Susie) Smith was the chair of this group, which was charged with carrying out federal directives at the state level.
The Woman's Committee had several areas of emphasis: Americanization, Child Welfare, Educational Propaganda, Food Administration, Food Production, Foreign and Allied Relief, Health and Recreation, Registration, Women in Industry, Maintenance of Existing Social Agencies. The Woman's Committee struggled with establishing its authority over this work because of lack of clear direction from the federal government.11
Ida Clyde Clarke summarized the work of this group in Washington State in her 1917 report quoting Mrs. Smith. Their work included registration of women in the state, assisting with Liberty Loan Bonds and with the November, 1917 food pledge. Mrs. Smith also stated that the women worked with saving fruit crops and supporting soldiers at Camp Lewis and sailors at Bremerton.12
Mrs. Ruth Karr McKee, the head of the Minute Women, stated that Mrs. Smith was out of the state for some of this work and described the "tentative character of her organization."13 The outcome was that the entire Woman's Committee of the Council of National Defense in Washington State resigned in late 1917 and its work was taken over by the Minute Women, who effectively operated as the Woman's Committee of the Council of National Defense for the duration of the war.

CARLSBAD, CA--(Marketwire - Nov 29, 2012) - International Stem Cell Corporation (
The Company's research and development team has created the world's first human clinical-grade stem cell lines with the ability to immune-match millions of individuals. ISCO's existing research-grade parthenogenetic stem cell lines, one of which contains the most common immune type in the Caucasian population and may be an immune-match to approximately 70 million people, are used in pre-clinical development. These new clinical-grade stem cell lines position ISCO to be able to conduct clinical trials in the United States.
Dr. Semechkin, CEO and Co-Chairman of the Board, comments, "We've been working diligently for three years to perfect this technology, which was first developed by our scientific founder, Dr. Elena Revazova in Moscow, and I'm excited to report that we have been able to derive new stem cell lines in the United States under the US and California regulatory frameworks. I'm optimistic that the new parthenogenetic stem cell lines, by providing a potentially unlimited supply of cells and tissue for transplantation, will be of great benefit to the medical community and patients world-wide."
The new stem cell lines, created using ISCO's proprietary technology, are the first of a new generation of clinical-grade human parthenogenetic stem cell (hpSC) lines created in the United States under US regulatory oversight and designed to meet FDA regulations. The US Food and Drug Administration developed Good Tissue Practice (GTP) and Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) standards to ensure the safety of products developed for clinical use. Conforming to GMP is extremely important as it means that the cells can be used in clinical development programs.
The new lines have been confirmed by independent third-party testing to be "homozygous" in the HLA coding regions meaning that they have a simple genetic profile in the critical areas of the DNA that code for immune rejection. This feature is one of the most important differences of hpSC when compared with embryonic stem cells and a distinct clinical advantage because of their ability to be immune-matched to the patient. We expect the new lines to immune-match millions of individuals, and will be added to ISCO's existing bank providing a platform from which to develop cells and tissue for clinical use.
"The importance of this breakthrough cannot be overstated," commented Dr. Craw, Executive Vice President of ISCO. "Expanding our collection is not only important for our therapeutic programs, but also further establishes our leadership position in human stem cell technology. Achieving this critical milestone moves us along the path to make the transition into a clinical stage company."
About International Stem Cell Corporation
International Stem Cell Corporation is focused on the therapeutic applications of human parthenogenetic stem cells (hpSCs) and the development and commercialization of cell-based research and cosmetic products. ISCO's core technology, parthenogenesis, results in the creation of pluripotent human stem cells from unfertilized oocytes (eggs) hence avoiding ethical issues associated with the use or destruction of viable human embryos. ISCO scientists have created the first parthenogenetic, homozygous stem cell line that can be a source of therapeutic cells for hundreds of millions of individuals of differing genders, ages and racial background with minimal immune rejection after transplantation. hpSCs offer the potential to create the first true stem cell bank, UniStemCell™. ISCO also produces and markets specialized cells and growth media for therapeutic research worldwide through its subsidiary Lifeline Cell Technology (www.lifelinecelltech.com), and stem cell-based skin care products through its subsidiary Lifeline Skin Care (www.lifelineskincare.com).

text: Emerging from the dark corners of the Internet's underground rap scene, Long Island musician Lil Peep attracted a sizable audience with his blend of hip-hop and rock influences. Born Gustav Ahr in the hamlet of Ronkonkoma, New York, he became a streaming sensation with his mixture of trap and elements of early-2000s punk and dream pop. With his gloomy and expressive lyrics -- along with a personal love of the two genres -- he attracted the "emo rap" label. However, while his influences ranged from Taking Back Sunday and My Chemical Romance to Gucci Mane, his sound more closely resembled that of Machine Gun Kelly and Yelawolf at their most introspective. Peep issued his debut mixtape, Lil Peep, Pt. 1, in 2015, quickly following by the Feelz EP and another mixtape, Live Forever. His breakthrough mixtapes, Crybaby and Hellboy, were released in 2016. The following year, he collaborated with Lil Tracy on a pair of Castles EPs. Tracy would return the favor on Peep's official debut LP, Come Over When You're Sober, Pt. 1, which featured the singles "The Brightside" and "Awful Things." Months after the album's release, Peep passed away on November 15, 2017.

SYNCHRO GOLD – Turmeric Elixir
The underlying metabolic process known as systemic inflammation is the single biggest driver of aging-related joint pain and diminishing brain function. Thankfully, with the right tools, inflammation is fully manageable, reducible and even reversible.
With Synchro Gold Liposomal Turmeric, it's possible to achieve this naturally, sustainably, and, most importantly, in a way that actually aids the body in healing itself – helping return the body to a state of true vitality.
MEGA SPORBIOTIC – Probiotic Supplement
Spore-based probiotic formulas are unquestionably the future of the probiotic market, and Mega Sporebiotic is the most effective spore-based product available in this new probiotic paradigm.
Traditional probiotic products are marginally effective (at best), as most of these bacteria will die in the acidic environment of the stomach, never making it to the small intestine or colon they need to reach to be effective.
Spore-based probiotics overcome the issue by delivering bacteria in hearty endospore form, able to resist the acidity of the stomach and successfully colonize the gut. The difference in efficacy is hard to understate. Traditional probiotics (99% of the market) are certainly better than no probiotics – but Mega Sporebiotic is in a completely different category with regards to efficacy.
Improved digestion and immune function, and reduced allergy symptoms are among the effects commonly reported by new Mega Sporebiotic users.
Now Alchemy Ormus
Now Alchemy uses a proprietary technique of filtering this Ormus that allows for it's unique purity and potency. Now Alchemy begins with an ancient and well known method for collecting Ormus known as the "Milk & Honey". This technique is most beneficial for the yield of monoatomic gold and other alchemically healing Dead Sea energies. Now Alchemy also uses the Egyptian method of collection, which is slightly different, and combines the two for a most potent and sacred Ormus product. Now Alchemy's proprietary filtration method allows your body to accept the m-state elements without triggering a defense response as it would with a salt water flush, and passing the elements through your body unabsorbed. Ormus is an exciting discovery and there is no time better than now to introduce these special minerals into your world because the soils are now over-cropped and less concentrated in these natural elements and minerals than every before.

One of the most effective ways to market a business on the Internet is by utilizing social media marketing strategies. What a lot of business owners have a problem doing is finding different ways to optimize their fan base and keep people intrigued with their page. The following are some tips that will help you improve on your marketing skills in regards to social media.
You should always link all of the sites together. Put links on your blog that allow readers to easily follow you on Facebook, Twitter and YouTube. Your Twitter profile should contain your Facebook and blog URL. These links will help you reach out to a wider audience and the same people will be exposed to your content more than once.
Social Media
Use exclusive offers to entice your social media consumers. Off them something that they cannot get from any other business. An example would be to have a contest that is exclusive to your social media followers. If not, offer an exclusive price reduction or coupon savings just for followers to enjoy. Or, you can simply make exclusive announcements via social media.
Take your time in deciding what an overall, high level strategy will entail. If you do not have a clear strategy and bounce from one social site to another, you can end up wasting time and money. Plot a comprehensive strategy that incorporates your overall advertising agenda and then start moving.
Determine ahead of time if you really want an active, ongoing dialog with customers. Keep your messages simple if you want to be successful and increase sales with social media marketing. To establish rapport with your target market, you should take the initiative to make the first move. You'll be lead by your customers from there.
Be sure and include a way for visitors to subscribe to your Facebook page, Linkedin, Tweets, etc. People are practically addicted to these social media sites. Many will check in multiple times daily and this gives them instant access to your business!
Social Media
Go ahead and get help with social media marketing if you need it. There are many professionals that would be capable of creating a strong social media campaign that will help you take advantage of this enormous market. Although they are expensive, they can be well worth the price. Therefore, it is important to include this expense in your budget.
Make sure you have a lot of interaction with your customers. Leave them comments on their Facebook status or blog post if you feel that this is appropriate. Don't interrupt a conversation with irrelevant comments or links to your products. Only post relevant comments, and don't mention your business unless the conversation naturally leads into it.
You can use the Twitter API to automatically tweet certain messages at a given time of day or in reaction to an event, such as a blogger posting something. Make sure that you post quality over quantity, as well as plenty of well written updates for your sites. Your Twitter followers will appreciate the quality content, and the bloggers will welcome the exposure.
Videos posts on YouTube and other social networks need to have excellent titles for a number of reasons. Add strong keywords to your titles so your videos are easier to find. The more descriptive your titles are, the easier a viewer will be able to locate them using their search terms.
You have been given several good marketing tips that you can use now to better your marketing efforts. Keep in mind when you market effectively, you give yourself the opportunity to gain more followers and customers for your business every year.

If you've seen a David Fincher movie, you'll know it -- he has a distinctive look about his work that... does something to the viewer.
Nerdwriter's breakdown of the Fincher tilt, pan, and track -- and sometimes all three at once -- shows how the famous director behind Fight Club, Gone Girl, The Social Networkand The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo's perfectionism pays off. In an almost Steadicam-ish way, Fincher shots track a character and keep them positioned identically in frame while they're moving.
It's not just close, Nerdwriter says -- it's perfect. Careful timing with an actor is necessary to get all the pieces of a shot, sometimes including several different movements, to fall into place together. That's why Fincher is notorious for doing so many takes, too.
Fincher's latest TV series Mindhunter is on Netflix now; I haven't watched it, but I hear good things. [YouTube]

Teachers are decorating bulletin boards, kids are buying sparkly pencil boxes, and parents of college freshmen are flocking to Bed Bath and Beyond to buy shower caddies. Labor Day is looming. It seems like the end of summer, doesn't it?
Not to me.
When you're in school, whether as a kid or a teacher, summer officially begins on the last day of school and ends on the first day of school. Summer is an ephemeral, limited time of year with a finite length; and if it's August 22 and you still haven't made it over to the water park — oh well, you missed your chance, wait 'til next summer.
But when you're a real adult, summer has no bounds.
If you have a year-round big-girl job like me, how do you define summer? For me, summer is a state of mind. And I intend to live in that state forever.
Summer is when people are willing to spend time outside, just doing nothing. Summer is neighborhood block parties, food festivals, and outdoor concerts. Summer is the shining sun; the rising moon; and going to the beach, even when it's raining.
Summer is when friends bump into each other on the street, forget about their intended destinations, and walk together toward the nearest scoop of gelato.
Summer is when bikers, rollerbladers, and outdoor runners make it seem that the earth is spinning at twice the normal speed; but yet, you feel like you have all the time in the world.
Summer is when everything smells like barbecued chicken, sunscreen, grilled corn, and sand.
Summer is the feeling of relaxation, the feeling of togetherness, the feeling that your hair blowing in the wind is the only thing you really need to feel.
Summer only ends when we allow this feeling to die.
When the jackets come out, when the bus station heat lamps turn on, when the windows are shut; when late-night Frisbee games turn into watching football streamed online, alone; this is when summer ends.
As we rake the leaves, we're raking a feeling into the gutters as well. We forget that doing nothing — with good people and a little bit of sunscreen — is a rare gift.
Though students and teachers are heading back to school, we all have the opportunity to prolong summer. Grab some boots and venture out into whatever Mother Nature throws at us. Organize an impromptu indoor pool party with friends. And don't forget to grill your corn.
If we live life like a summer festival — complete with '80s cover bands, artsy jewelry, and fried Oreos — summer can last forever.

One would expect The Charm School's regular crowdfunding gatherings for local artists, called Feasts, to be charming. They are. Gentlefolk pay $20 a ticket for dinner and a show of local artists pitching art projects. Afterward, patrons vote on which presentation should be awarded a grant of $400-$1,000. But beneath the polish and poise is the heart of a Viking parliament: Under the exposed roof beams of the Visual Arts Collective, patrons sit at long wooden tables, gastronomizing chow, swilling beer and talking animatedly. Whether the audience comes for the Apollonian diversion of dinner, conversation and the arts, or a democratic bacchanal of presenters vying for grants and glory, Feasts have become premier arts events. thecharmschool.org

I have a friend who's seriously considering going freelance. She's a bit like me, different industry, but just starting a family, got a bit of experience under her belt, it's the perfect scenario, right? You get to work from home, you're totally in control of your hours, you don't have to worry about childcare, you can work in your PJs, you don't have anyone telling you what to do. It's living the dream!
I was there once. I thought it was living the dream. I thought that making the break for freelance working would be the best leap of faith I would ever take. And it is. Please believe me it is. I love it. You can read about it here.
But I can also honestly say it is the hardest thing I've ever sought to do in my entire life.
It is simultaneously the best thing and the hardest thing.
So I just wanted to set the record straight. In case anyone out there was considering it, I don't want you to read the 'perfect life of a freelancer' blogs and think that this is the easy option, that if you do this your problems will be solved. There's loads to consider – there are things in my life that make this possible, things that if they weren't in place it wouldn't be possible. Here's a real look at the 'perfect life of a freelancer'…..
1. The work isn't consistent, regular or guaranteed
When you see me on Facebook or Twitter looking 'busy' please know that I am. I am busy. But not all of my 'business' translates into cold, hard cash. The blogging, the emailing, the researching, the tax returns, the planning does not pay. Only the client work pays, and it's bloody hard work getting those clients! Probably about 50% of my work is client work and 50% is the rest – things that need to be done, things that will hopefully bag me more client work, but not things that will pay me that day.
Most of the time I will have paid work one week and then go for two or three weeks without any paid work (I've only been doing this 10 months so I'm working on it!). Thankfully that one week of paid work will give me enough money to pay my bills, but just so you know, the work isn't consistent. Or regular. And that's if you get any at all.
2. The money doesn't magically appear in your account when you need it
Your work might not stick to your schedule of when you need money. Even if you have some great projects lined up they often overrun, you can't invoice until they're complete and then you would usually give 30 day terms on your invoice. So it could be 3-4 months between receiving the commission and receiving the payment (in my line of work, anyway), and that's assuming the client pays on time.
If you're relying on your income to pay your basic bills then it's vital you build up a good buffer of savings before you quit your job, as there are often cash flow problems which mean the money isn't necessarily there at the point in the month when you need it.
As you work, commit to saving a percentage of each payment to ensure that this buffer stays topped up. And remember, live within your means. Sometimes myself and my husband feel super rich – but would we move to a bigger house or purchase a car on finance based on my income? No. We try to keep our bills as low as possible so that when my money is in short supply, we can live from my husband's money (we can't, but we don't want to be dipping into those savings more than we have to!).
3. You can work in your PJs!..... at 5am.
Working in your PJs is living the dream, right? Except when it's 5am. Even when I commuted from Stratford to Colchester every day I didn't get up at 5am. So now, when I'm meeting a deadline and I get up at 5am to do it, I certainly don't feel like I'm living the dream! But that's what I do. Because right now my daughter isn't in school. Right now she demands my attention from the moment she wakes up to the moment she goes to bed.

4. You don't need to worry about childcare.
Honestly? Childcare is my biggest worry. I would love to put Ruby into childcare for one or two days per week, but I can't commit to such an expense when there will be some weeks when I don't need it. I am counting down the months until she qualifies for a free space (and that's a long way off!). I have an amazing support network of friends and family who will happily babysit when I'm on deadline, but it doesn't work out to be a regular thing. The result is that I often work weekends, evenings and early mornings when my husband can deal with Ruby, and that the maintenance / pitching / research side of the business gets put on the back burner. You cannot work at home and have young children at the same time. You will need a support network of babysitters and you probably won't get a lot of sleep – but the benefits far outweigh these sacrifices because you are raising your children and spending time with them – just don't think it will be an easy ride!
5. You can fit your work in around your life.
You can't. Believe me, I've tried. It's easy to think that you can just send a few emails or do a bit of blogging or pitch for a bit more work in and around your normal routine, but it doesn't work out like that. You need to be disciplined. You need to set some hours. Those hours might be irregular and not your usual 9-5, but you still need to set them. Life happens, and before you know it, days (or even weeks!) have whizzed by and all you've done this week is check your emails rather than pitch for paid work.
It's easy to think you're working when you're not, it's easy to think you have work when you don't, it's easy to think that money is on its way when it's not. You can't sit back and enjoy the ride, there is constant tension between your family commitments and your work and sometimes you have to make sacrifices (but so worth it!).
6. No more bosses breathing down your neck, hurrah!
You might be your own boss and be able to manage your own workload, but you still have clients. Some clients are great, some clients are a pain in the ass, but all clients pay you money so it's your job to keep them happy and coming back for more! And nowadays, when so much communication is done via email it's difficult to tell whether you're keeping them happy or not! Cue those feelings of insecurity and dread every time a difficult client's email pings into your inbox.
The fact is, you still have to work with people and you still have to work to a brief so don't think that your 'boss from hell' problems will disappear, problems will arise, people will take advantage of your good nature and things will get lost in translation. Just breathe through it, stay chipper and go the extra mile to ensure they use your services again (at least when you work from home you can go cry into your duvet and eat chocolate before coming back and facing the world!).
So there you have it. Six freelancing myths busted, giving you a slightly more realistic picture of the 'perfect life of a freelancer'. Don't let it put you off, just make sure you're prepared for the journey!
Have you had to face up to any of these myths? Have I missed anything?
I'd love to hear your comments below!

Thorness Bay, Isle of Wight
For Tallulah's next trip we decided to be a bit more adventurous and go 'overseas'… to the Isle of Wight. We also wanted to try a more child focussed site as it was the start of the Easter holidays and we chose one of the four Park Resorts holiday parks on the island, Thorness Bay near Cowes.
We had been to the Isle of Wight several times previously, for day trips and to the festival (and Bestival), but never in a vdub camper so our 5yo was amazed that we could simply drive Tallulah onto a boat.
We were booked on the 11.25 ferry from Lymington so left Reading at 9am for a very scenic and leisurely cruise south along the A33 to Winchester, A3090 through Romsey and finally picking up the A337 heading into the New Forest.
We arrived in plenty of time and ate our lunch on the sun deck during the crossing.
We arrived at the site soon after and once checked in, went about finding our allocated pitch – the pitch numbering system was somewhat out of sync with the map we were given – and setting up.
Tallulah was levelled, plugged in and attached to her awning after an hour or so – Oli had made friends with a boy of a similar age and was happily cruising around on his bike – so we relaxed in the glorious weather for a while before exploring the rest of the site and the nearby beach.
The site had a great atmosphere, very friendly and not too busy – although it was the very start of season when we visited – a swimming pool, large adventure playground, various 'kiddy club' activities throughout the day as well as shows and other entertainment in the evenings, two bars, a shop and a restaurant.
Most of the activities and entertainment are included in the pitch price so if you're for a site with lots of things for kids, it's a bargain!
We stayed for two nights making the most if the facilities and headed back to the mainland on the Fishbourne to Portsmouth ferry, passing the Isle of Wight festival site on the way.
Once again we took the scenic route back to Reading on the A3 and arrived home in roughly two hours.

Many people think of a credit as if it were free money, forgetting that a bank is not the sister of charity that procures those who have less. The credit is a financial service that has a specific cost that must be paid by whoever hires him: the interest rate.
The foregoing expresses that there is a certain fear of suffering from the cloning of cards, unrecognized charges or identity thefts that directly affect the economy.
What many do not know is that it is increasingly safe to make these types of transactions, because companies have security filters that avoid any financial damage to their customers.
Unfortunately, this fear has prevented us from taking advantage of the advantages of shopping through the Internet, which we will list below:
Offers: some stores have discounts and promotions if you buy online, which is a relief to your pocket because you can get offers quickly and conveniently from your home.
In addition, you can register your email to be notified at the exact time when a product or service has dropped in price.
The loan is an unsecured loan granted by a bank or financial entity in order to gather the necessary liquidity to carry out a transaction.
A loan of this type allows you to buy goods and services in the present to pay for it in the future. Of course, all this comes with a fee that you must cover for hiring a money advance service.
If you are smart, you will pay the full balance when you have to do it and you will use the bank's money with intelligence, thus avoiding an over-indebtedness or a complicated situation in which you can not fulfill your financial commitments.
Those who do not pay the bill in full every month and make additional purchases are soon overwhelmed by interest payments, resulting in a growing balance.
This is toxic to your financial health and may affect your credit rating.
A credit offers the convenience of increasing your purchasing power. A loan will facilitate the realization of transactions for large amounts that exceed your monthly income, but that you can afford for a longer period of time.
This way you can carry out projects that you have in mind such as traveling, buying a car or remodeling your house. The banking and financial entities have done a lousy job of promoting credits as status symbols and tickets to freedom when in fact they are a service that should be used with prudence.
To use a credit in your favor you have to know what are the conditions of contracting and the obligations that you acquire. This way you can pay on time, pay the lower interest amount and settle your debt properly.
Before hiring a loan, check the terms and conditions that will determine the total cost of the service.
You should be crazy to accept a loan without knowing what the interest rate will be, the period contracted, the corresponding commissions for the service and the penalties that you could suffer if you do not comply with the payments.
When you're going to take out a loan, make sure you know what the interest rate you'll have to cover. This rate is a percentage that is charged on the total amount owed, so the monthly interest should be reduced as you pay for the loan you requested.
Some banking and financial institutions offer a fixed rate, but there are others that can offer you the hiring of a variable rate. The fixed rate may be more convenient because it will let you know exactly what percentage you will have to pay for interest.
The variable rate can be a double-edged sword, if the reference rates in the markets fall, you will benefit with a lower rate, if they go up, you will be harmed because you will have to pay more for the loan.
Some banking and financial entities offer variable rates linked to interest rates or other indicators of the economy. This is not always a problem. However, being on the side of these data can be complicated.
Unless you are an economist dedicated to these issues, it is best to ask for a fixed rate. The interest rate can become a headache if you do not make sure you pay on time for the credit you have hired.
If you stop paying, the original owed amount will still be there, but what you will have to pay for interests that will grow like foam. A smart credit user pays the bill in full every month to only pay for the service contract.
When you are going to take out a loan, make sure you have available each month the amount of money you will need to pay your credit and the corresponding interest. When you are hiring, ask how much you will have to pay per month.
Think about your regular monthly expenses. If you have the amount you need and a little more, you can apply to get out of payday loan. Try to keep monthly payments at the lowest possible level. Some experts recommend that you pay no more than 30% of your monthly salary to pay for a loan service.
If you exceed this limit, it is likely that in a month you can not comply. Extraordinary expenses could severely affect you if you have to use half of your income to pay off the loan.
Make sure you pay the amount owed or a little more each month. Never pay the minimum or stop paying, this would generate penalties that will increase the amount of your debt. This will allow you to save money because there will be no surcharges, extra commissions or increasing interest.
A good payment history of the credits you have requested throughout your life is recorded in the credit bureau. The better your history is, the better financing options you can find.
Remember to keep the documents of the contracting of your credit and the contact information of the institution that you have hired at hand. This way you can solve any doubt that may arise about the loan services you have requested.
A regular review of your credit history is vital to maintaining a solid credit rating and protecting yourself against identity theft.
Generally, the credit history contains personal identification information, a credit summary, account history, inquiries, collections, and public records.
All this is what the financial services providers consult in the credit bureau to know if you are a risk or if you are able to contract loans.
Your credit history contains all the information about the payments you have made and those you have not made, the debts you have contracted, the credit periods you have hired and the types of credits you have used.
Here are six basic points so you know how to use a credit in your favor:
1. Terms and conditions: review in depth what you are obligated to when you hire a loan.
2. Receipts: save the generated receipts and all the information about the payments you have made. This will make it easier to make any clarification. You can use your account statement to collate the information and know what the monthly status of your credit is. If you notice any irregularity, go immediately to check if there is any problem.
3. Regular payments: before hiring, prepare a plan to pay the full balance each month. If you realize that you can not cover the monthly payments and keep some extra money, it is not a good idea to hire that credit. You can request a lower amount that suits your possibilities.
4. Avoid charges for late payments: always make the payment before the due date to avoid late fees.
5. Routine purchases: do not use your credit money to buy things that you do not even need to make routine purchases. Use the credit for what you hired: start a business, buy a car, improve your house, etc.
6. Protect your information: do not share your credit information with any person who calls you on the pretext of "verifying" your personal information or "correcting" a problem. For sure, it's a scam.
We invite you to download our study "The financial advantages of a credit", we will tell you how and why a financial service of this type can be an excellent option to fulfill your dreams.

This includes:
Alion mode2 player mode or Hard mode
and my personal favorite
Monkay mode!!! Yes they are monkays, not exactly monkeys( where monkays are flying all around with their bananas trying to distract you from your gameplay!)
+++ New update +++

All I ask is that you donate money, to support the creative and independent game creators out there( like me), if everybody would donated some money to all the free games out there, how much more people would be inspired to create wonderful and imaginative games that we would have never thought of!
Perhaps the one that didn't believe in himself, could stand up and create a sure fire hit, all because of knowing that there would be good and appreciative people out there that are willing to churn out some of their hard earn money,to the lowly and creative crowd out there, that offers you a distraction of the woes of this world, even if it is just for a minute, isn't it worth just to give a little, to show you appreciation of the distraction from this harsh world it gave to you and the fun you had with it.
It will tell them, thank you, I actually enjoyed the game, and the time you spent creating it was not in vain, isn't this worth just a little bit of your money?

The Brewery Quarter in Cheltenham can be found at the end of the High Street and is a hub of things to do and see including bars, restaurants and activities. Newly extended to open the bottom of the High Street into a cool hub, the complex features a Town Centre Premiere Inn where you can stay, an extensive range of bars and restaurants and a number of great activities for adults and kids alike.
Food & Drink
The Brewery is a nucleus of big name eating brands, from Five Guys to Cosy Club, Chiquito's, Frankie & Benny's and Nando's to name but a few. There are also lots of bars offering a relaxed vibe, including Babel and The Brewhouse & Kitchen.
Great for kids and adults, The Brewery houses Mr Mulligan's Lost World Golf, The Hollywood Bowl, a Cineworld IMAX cinema, The Screening Rooms and The Playfarm. The Brewery also has an extensive schedule of activities within the complex itself, which are worth keeping an eye on.

Donkeys find new home helping autistic children
A SWEDISH businesswoman's plan to help children with autism has saved three abandoned Irish donkeys and could result in many more being rehomed.
Monika Andersson owns a 300-acre equestrian centre in Nykoping on the outskirts of Stockholm.
She came up with the idea of opening a specialist area at the centre to work with children with autism. However, she was worried that horses may not be suitable for children with special needs.
Monika and her family opted to use donkeys instead but with just 400 or so donkeys in all of Sweden, they didn't have a lot of choice.
In stepped ex-pat Charles McSweeney-O'Rourke, who is originally from Ardara in Co Donegal, but now lives in Sweden and is friendly with the Andersson family. The Donegal Donkey Sanctuary was contacted and a visit was duly arranged. On Monday, Ms Andersson visited Ireland and chose three donkeys to ship to Sweden from Donegal.
Danny Curran of the Donegal Donkey Sanctuary, which cares for more than 60 donkeys at its centre in Raphoe, said he hoped it was the start of a wonderful relationship.
"Donkeys have a lovely nature and I have often seen children with autism hugging them and building up a special bond with them," said Danny.

2016 Chablis, Saint Pierre, Le Domaine d'Henri, Burgundy
White | Ready, but will keep | Le Domaine d'Henri | Code: 53728 | 2016 | France > Burgundy > Chablis > Chablis Premier Cru | Chardonnay | Medium Bodied, Dry | 12.5 % alcohol
The fruit for the cuvée Saint Pierre (named after a church in the town of Chablis) hails from prized parcels in the lieu-dit of Les Chaumes, in Maligny. The soil here is relatively rich in clay, resulting in a more concentrated, age-worthy wine than most village Chablis. It is raised primarily in stainless steel, but around 10% is aged in used oak barrels. Expect classic aromas of zested lemons and crushed oyster shell, leading to a palate that's medium-full yet fresh and energetic. A natural accompaniment to shellfish, this also works well with all manner of white meat dishes. Drink now to 2024.

The Producer
The domaine is currently converting to organic viticulture, while the objective in the winery is to allow each different terroir to express itself. Each parcel is therefore vinified separately, using only natural yeast. Between 10 and 35% of any given wine is aged in barrel depending on the vintage and cuvée – just the right amount to highlight, rather than mask, the startling purity of the domaine's wines.
Michel's daughter Margaux, who shares her father's dynamism, is increasingly responsible for the commercial side of the business.
Other wines by this producer:
The Grape
Chardonnay is the "Big Daddy" of white wine grapes and one of the most widely planted in the world. It is suited to a wide variety of soils, though it excels in soils with a high limestone content as found in Champagne, Chablis, and the Côte D`Or.
Burgundy is Chardonnay's spiritual home and the best White Burgundies are dry, rich, honeyed wines with marvellous poise, elegance and balance. They are unquestionably the finest dry white wines in the world. Chardonnay plays a crucial role in the Champagne blend, providing structure and finesse, and is the sole grape in Blanc de Blancs.
It is quantitatively important in California and Australia, is widely planted in Chile and South Africa, and is the second most widely planted grape in New Zealand. In warm climates Chardonnay has a tendency to develop very high sugar levels during the final stages of ripening and this can occur at the expense of acidity. Late picking is a common problem and can result in blowsy and flabby wines that lack structure and definition.
Recently in the New World, we have seen a move towards more elegant, better- balanced and less oak-driven Chardonnays, and this is to be welcomed.
The Region
Chablis Premiers Crus are stylish, minerally wines which, typically, are less intense than the Grand Crus but finer and longer-lasting than basic Chablis. They are highly underrated with the better examples outclassing many a good village white Burgundy.
The vineyards cover 750 hectares, scattered across 15 communes on isolated slopes with good exposure. There are 17 principal Premiers Crus but in total 79 vineyards are eligible, with most of the lesser-known ones using a more familiar umbrella name on their label. The best flank the Grands Crus on the north bank of the River Serein, like Montée de Tonnerre (probably the best of all), Fourchaume and Mont de Milieu.
Those just south of Chablis, like Vaillons, Montmains (especially Les Forêts) and Côte de Léchet are also good. With the vineyard area having doubled since the 1970s, quality varies enormously so, as ever, the producer is key.
Styles also vary, with some maturing and fermenting in stainless steel for a purer, more minerally style, while others age and sometimes even ferment their wines in oak for extra complexity. The best examples reach their apogee at eight to 10 years, but are normally enjoyed long before then.

10 Resolutions For College Students
As a college student, there are plenty of resolutions you could make for the New Year. You could resolve to organize your dorm room or to always make your bed before leaving for class. Those resoultions are just fine, but why not stick to some resolutions, which will help you reach your collegiate and professional goals?
USA Today College has put together a list of 10 resolutions every college student should make. I definitely agree with most on this list (#2, 4, 5, 8 and especially 9).
If I had to add my own personal resolutions to this list they would be:
- to put together a killer resume
- to volunteer at least twice per month at the local animal shelter
- to stop being the Queen of Procrastination, although I love being royalty
- to eat well (which means no more Ben & Jerry's Half Baked at 3am)
- to keep to my resolutions until at least June 2011 (yes…I always break them by the second week of the New Year…I'm not gonna lie.)
What are your New Year's resolutions?

DEFIANCE, OHIO – The Defiance College football team dropped a heart breaker Saturday afternoon in Heartland Collegiate Athletic Conference action at Justin F. Coressel Stadium, falling to Hanover 37-29.
The Yellow Jackets (2-6 overall, 2-4 HCAC) finished the contest with 387 total yards of offense including 323 passing yards and 64 rushing. Defiance was led in the contest by freshman Carl Stokes (Merrillville, Ind./East Chicago Central) with 174 yards on nine targets. Junior Corey Bennett (Tampa, Fla./Blake) tallied 102 yards on the ground with 23 carriers.
The Defiance College defense posted a strong statement early as freshman Cody Drumm-Turner (Homer, Mich.) picked off Panther quarterback on the opening drive to set-up the Purple and Gold. Freshman Logan Mico (Grosse Point Park, Mich.) capitalized on the Hanover miscue taking the DC offense 75 yards on seven plays including a 56 yard completion to sophomore DeVonte Cravin (Ama, La./Hahnville) for the go ahead score, 7-0.
On the succeeding drive, Hanover responded moving the ball 59 yards for the chip shot from Panther kicker, Austin Steurer, 7-3. The Panther offense finally began to find its groove as they captured their first lead of the contest early in the second half following a 29 yard scamper, 9-7.
However, with 12:29 remaining in the first half, the Yellow Jacket offense went on the attack traveling 62 yards on seven plays including a hook up between Mico and Stokes that landed Defiance inside the Panther 20 yard line. Bennett would get the job done on the ground as he grinded out a 12 yard run that led to another DC score, 14-9.
The Hanover offense responded on the following drive answering the bell with a nine play, 67 yard drive that put the Panthers back on top 16-14. After a Yellow Jacket three-and-out, the Hanover ground game dealt affective as Shawn Coane rushed for 31 yards and another HC score. The Panthers closed out the half with one last score to claim the 30-14 halftime advantage.
Defiance finished the first half with 144 total yards of offense, including 108 through the air. Bennett led the Yellow Jacket offense with 10 carries for 39 total yards.
The second half saw several stalled drives early before the DC offense began to click behind the power of Bennett. The Yellow Jacket defense halted a Panther 10 play 42 yard drive, paving the way for the offense. DC took the following drive 74 yards including a grinding 26 yard run by Bennett that placed Defiance within the Panther five yard line. However, a DC miscue on fourth down would stall the drive and force a turnover on downs.
The Yellow Jacket defense came up huge late in the third quarter forcing another three-and-out swinging momentum in favor of the Purple and Gold.
Mico answered piloting the Defiance attack 44 yards over a four minute span for the score. The drive included back-to-back connections between Mico and a leaping Stokes to cut the deficit to 30-22.
However, the Panthers tallied its first touchdown of the second half as Chase Lightfoot found Coane streaking the sideline for the 42 yard catch and score, 37-22.
The ensuing possession, Defiance took the pig skin the length of the field before the Panther red zone defense was able to force a DC fumble. However, the Hanover drive saw a hiccup on the following drive as junior Beau Barkley (Fort Wayne, Ind./Churbusco) laid a thunderous hit that forced a Panther fumble. The ball found itself in the hands of junior Cody Brown (Grass Lake, Mich.) for the 2 yard score, 37-29.
The Yellow Jackets defense came up huge late in the fourth as they forced a Hanover punt putting DC in the driver seat. The Defiance drive began on the Purple and Gold 10 yard line and opened with rushes by Bennett. Mico would find Stokes on third down for a 35 yard connection over the middle of the field to put DC inside Hanover territory. The Yellow Jackets continued to pressure the Panthers defense as Mico and Stokes played déjà vu connecting for another 33 yard completion putting the Purple and Gold inside the 10 yard line. Hanover, however, made a strong statement forcing a turnover on downs en route to the 37-29 victory.
Defiance returns to action Saturday, November 4 as they travel to Mount St. Joseph. Game time is set for 1:30 p.m.
