November, 1984
C. hires me to build a deck and a woodshed, replace some lights,
install a faucet. She lives in a badly built but glitzy McMansion
overlooking a golf course. She has three teens and five cars. The
house is utter chaos.
The older daughter is watching a
television movie exclaiming "Oh my God I can't believe it — Oh my God
he's doing it — Oh my God how awful…" as a kid commits suicide on
screen. She shouts for her little sister to answer the phone and only
accept certain calls. For the others she's "in the shower."
Meanwhile little sister is listening to the radio in her room, loudly.
son is in the driveway building a go-kart when the father comes home
and says, "What happened to the lawnmower?" He's a stockbroker. Mr. C.
goes to the kitchen, turns on another radio — loudly — and pours
bourbon into a glass.
A golf ball bounces into the driveway.
As a golfer approaches, the son deliberately sets the ball on fire with
an oxyacetylene torch.
A delivery truck brings a large carton, a
Kohler low-boy. Caroline says it is for me: while I'm here, she wants
me to replace their toilet.
The next morning a team of
housecleaners has converged with vacuum and squeegee and dusters. I
work around them; they work around me. Nobody else is home.
I pull the old toilet and hook up the Kohler. A sticker on the base says "Leak tested."
It leaks. Badly.
a crack in the bowl. Shame on Kohler. And shame on Shady Plumbing
Supply for selling it. And shame on me for not noticing the crack
before installing it. Multiple botch.
I call Shady, and they say
they will send out a van to pick it up today, just leave it by the driveway.
It's Friday. They'll deliver a new one on Monday.
The housecleaners depart at noon. I finish early, tidy up, go home.
evening I call Caroline C. to ask if the toilet was delivered, and she
tells me I'm fired. Further, she's deducting $95 from my bill to cover
the plumber she hired to install the new toilet. Seems that Shady
Plumbing decided not to pick up the toilet on Friday since they could
simply get it on Monday when they delivered the new one. When Mr. and
Mrs. arrived home Friday evening with Important Clients to Impress,
there sat the cracked toilet — on their front steps.
"I left it by the driveway," I say.
talks right over me. "Imagine the surprise of my guests," Caroline
says, "to find a toilet at the front door. And somebody had made a, um,
deposit in the bowl."
"Wasn't mine," I say.
She owes me a thousand dollars.
week later I receive a check in the mail, full payment, no deduction.
Maybe she asked her son what happened. Boys will be boys.

The heat and humidity sulked over Kentucky like an unwelcome heavy blanket. In the Red River Gorge it lay so thick that the Kentucky bass could have risen from the water and thrived on the land by gulping down swallows of wet air. Horseflies the size of fingers sliced through the haze with their glittering wings and left welts on sticky skin from their careening flights and sharp bites.
At the campsite on the edge of Middle Fork Red River I melted. I slipped into the cool creek and watched crawdads dart from under polished stones.
"I don't think there's a breeze in all of Kentucky," I groaned before hauling myself out of the creek to pull on hiking boots for our trip up to the natural bridge. I pumped cool water from the camp well and drank half of it immediately from my bottle and then pumped some more.
The hike up the one-way 0.75 mile "Original Trail" was miserable. I was dehydrated and hot, and McCrae and I picked up branches with crisp green leaves to swat bugs away from our faces. All the way up we climbed past pocked sandstone and patches of moss, aching for a breeze.
I had expected some sort of reprieve at the summit, but the air was just as stubbornly muggy and still as it was on the trail, and the biting flies were just as aggressive, so we pressed on into the haze, skirting the tourist skylift towards Lookout Point where we could see the natural bridge in profile.
350 million years ago - a time before the dinosaurs, before Pangaea, before even reptiles ruled the Earth - sediments were left from a swampy Carboniferous Period ecosystem and formed deposits that became shale and limestone. These softer carbon- and calcium-based deposits were buried under sturdier sediments that became sandstone. Later a fault between colliding tectonic plates pushed up the Appalachian Mountains - not once but twice - and the land shifted. Some features were uplifted and simultaneously eroded, sometimes in curious ways as water and wind forced through the softest layers. Nearby the Red River bore through rocks to form dramatic canyons. Now the escarpment between the soaring Cumberland Plateau and the Bluegrass region is dotted with cliffs and unique rock formations like the natural bridge.
And so, millions of years later, in the muggy afternoon surrounded by biting flies and haze, McCrae and I stood on the overlook facing the natural bridge and looked out over the Kentucky landscape. I lay on my stomach and buried my face in red dirt, hoping to escape the flies and let off some heat into the cool stone where tourists had carved initials and names and hearts. McCrae swatted at flies and passed me different lenses as I asked for them while I photographed the scenery.
"I bet this is incredible during autumn," I said. "Not least because the flies are gone." I chugged some water from my Nalgene before we picked up our branches and swished at the air as we hustled down the trail, back to the lower elevations and to the cool, lazy stream by our campsite. It was hotter than heck, sure, but gosh it was a great view.

Dating: it takes 20 minutes or less for most singles to decide if they want to see you again after the first date.
"If they just kept talking and talking and talking about nothing interesting, I wouldn't call them back," says one man.
"Definitely don't want to meet someone on the first night and find out their family is crazy," another man says.
"We don't want to hear about your ex-boyfriend and all the horrible or fantastic things that he did for you. We want you to be interested in us and what we're going to do for you," another man adds.
What else do they want? Dating expert Sharan Richardson of It's Just Lunch says a woman with a nice smile tops a recent survey.
"The other thing that might surprise ladies is they do not care for plastic surgery," says Richardson.
First dates are about leaving your best impression, so leave the negativity at home.
"Resist the urge to talk about on the first date how you hate your boss or negative things," warns Richardson.
Instead, keep things positive and sincere. "Like a nice sincere compliment really breaks the ice and you know what, be a little bit vulnerable so that person feels comfortable opening up as well," says Richardson.
Once you're past date one, there are a few things men wish you knew to navigate dates two and beyond. "It's okay for you to be a woman. It's okay to let me open the door for you. Let me pay for a meal you know," says Brian says.
"They try to make things way too complicated," Dave adds.
"Just give us our space," says Ryan.
And while many men do like the thrill of the chase.
"If they have to go on a safari just to get your attention, you're making them work too hard. If you're waiting three days to return their phone calls and playing little games like that, I don't suggest that," Richardson said.
"Most men probably just put on a front for the most part. Most of them are nice guys deep down inside. We're just looking for someone we can trust, loyalty, honesty those types of things," explains Chris.
Know too that good relationships take time.
"Don't try to force it and don't try to move too fast. You know don't go on a great date and stop looking at other people and stop meeting other people. Because you don't know where that's going to go," says Richardson.
A new University of Texas study finds the more attractive the woman, the more a man thinks she is interested in him, while women, on the other hand, often underestimate men's desire for them.
Before you go on a first date it is important to ask yourself what you are looking to gain out of the date. It is also a good idea to keep communication open with your date and gauge out what they are looking for without being too forward.
Dating 101: First impressions are especially important on a first date, so make sure you are well groomed and well dressed. Most girls still appreciate chivalry so guys be prepared to pay. Smiling and having a good attitude will also make the date more comfortable and enjoyable for both parties.
Dos & Don'ts: There are a few things that will make a date run into your arms, or away from them. Here are a few tips that datingtips.com has gathered to help a girl or guy snag that special someone.
- Be on time
- Laugh
- Take things slow
- Make your date feel special
- Talk about your ex's
- Be pushy
- Over analyze your date
- Avoid checking out other people
Deal breakers? When you are on a first date or even after dating awhile, there are some things that will make your date squirm or run. Having bad breath, being overweight, or rude rank high on the turn-off level, but may not be a deal breaker. Surprisingly, according to It's Just Lunch when singles were asked what their biggest deal breaker was on a first date, almost half said a lack of shared interest was what made them least likely to call back for a second date.
Get your flirt on! When guys and girls were asked what made them most interested on a date, they answered with feeling comfortable or having chemistry as a front runner. To show you're interested, don't be afraid to touch by lightly brushing shoulders or touching arms. Body language and enthusiasm are a great way to show you're interested and help your date feel more comfortable.

"Sorry, I like boys!" seems a mismatched response to the question, "Care to save a life?"
All in Politics
"Sorry, I like boys!" seems a mismatched response to the question, "Care to save a life?"
It was clear from the beginning that Tom had an activist on his hands. On their very first date, Juan excused himself for a moment to jump onto an organizing conference call.
As time passes, it will be easy to forget that for every victory and setback we've experienced in the courts on the way to this victory, there have been actual LGBT people and families at the center of these cases.
Far from being a source of his problems as a parent, the military has been a large part of Chris Armijo's support system.
In a year when we've seen the first openly gay player drafted to the NFL and same-sex marriage bans are falling across the country on a weekly basis — we still lack federal anti-discrimination protections for LGBTQ people.
A study conducted with data collected by Vote for Equality (VFE) showed that a remarkable 15 percent of all voters became less supportive of marriage equality after viewing the ad, including a whopping 26 percent of all undecided voters.

2009 was my first real year for public blogging. I was able to watch and talk about pretty much every one of the 162 games played by the Mariners this year, I got to go to both the coldest (Opening Day, at around 30F) and the warmest (Blue Jays, at around 100F) games I've ever been to, and earned a new, more clear understanding of what it really means to be a fan (and I thank the ECS in part for that). My focus was on the bullpen for the 2009 Mariners, but there was also so much more about that lineup to be amazed at and proud of. 2009 was housecleaning, rebuilding, and regaining respect that we lost so much of in 2008 (as Mike Salk would say, Jack Zduriencik "settled all family business" all Goddfather-style). There is little I can say here about 2009 that I haven't said already, but coming in third place has never given me so much (sports-related) joy and happiness. Keeping tabs on trade rumors has never had me so riveted to my computer screen, giggling like a maniac and talking to myself. It's been an amazing year for Mariners baseball.
And with New Year's Eve and Day, we're looking at sort of the hump day of the offseason. Two more months must now go by before Spring Training games start to be broadcast on the radio and TV (hopefully? Please, FSN, PLEASE!) There are less than 60 days before pitchers and catchers report to Arizona. Less than 120 days before the 2010 Seattle Mariners start the 2010 season, and we finally see for ourselves whether all the cheering for Cliff Lee and worry over Milton Bradley was actually worth it. About 90 more days – give or take – for the front office to make their trades and gel up the final roster for the year. Less than 5 days before the first Mariners Mondays (starts January 4th, according to reader Craig D)!
For myself, I have "met" many people online that I hope to actually meet in real life in 2010. And to anyone who has ever dropped by here – whether on purpose or just via search engine, and even if it was just to laugh at my inane ramblings – thank you so much for reading my site. Thanks are also due to all the other blogs who have linked me – it means a lot to someone who is just starting out, trust and believe – and thank you to those of you who come here on a regular basis to read and comment; even if there are just five of you. Before I start sounding like I've just won a Grammy, I just want to wish everyone a happy and healthy New Year, and a joyous and safe New Year's Eve.

We spent our first day together creating lush bridal bouquets, and walking the streets of Florence with the gorgeous Carlotta, posing for the beautiful images below. With a city so full of rich history, and rustic architecture it was hard not to fall in love.Read More
Wedding trends are constantly changing, especially when it comes to the floral design aspect. From the rustic babys breath in mason jars, to the roundy moundy Hydrangea arrangements, to now the very popular organic styling, theres no denying every couple of years we see an abundance of changing trends. I personally love to design all of my arrangements more organically with lots of movement and texture to mimic what we see in nature. This allows my work to remain timeless despite the ever changing trends. While this more organic and wandering style looks effortless, it can be intimidating to design, so I've put together 4 easy steps to help you achieve the same organic garden inspired floral arrangements.Read More
One of my favorite weddings from this year was Kayley + Christian's. Not only were they such a sweet couple, but they had great style as well! Their venue, Waldenwoods in Howell, Michigan was nestled within a gorgeous campground, with the venue itself overlooking the water.Read More
Maintaining and growing relationships while growing a business is difficult and it's a topic I don't think is touched on very much. Entrepreneurship is beautiful, but it can be incredibly lonely. If you are feeling alone in your journey, I can assure you, you are not alone. If you feel like you can't have both meaningful relationships and a booming business, take a deep breath. You'll get there. It is possible.Read More

In the wake of Brexit, it seems as if the only certainty is uncertainty. Nothing like this has happened before, and the UK will be the first member to exit the EU in its 59 year history. Within hours of the decision being made, the pound fell to its lowest point since 1985, the FTSE fell by seven percent minutes after opening, and other markets around the world took a dive. Financial services took a particularly heavy hit. Financial markets simply don't like uncertainty and unfortunately this is exactly what we will get for some time to come.
What is clear is that businesses of all sizes and in every discipline in the UK will be affected by this decision, and many global businesses, large and small, will feel the implications as well.
Instead of sticking their heads in the sand, companies can put systems in place that allow them to explore the various possible future states and even put early warning indicators in place to show that things are changing.
Scenario analysis, also known as horizon analysis or total return analysis, is an analytic tool that allows you to look at a variety of possible future events or 'scenarios' by considering alternative possible outcomes.
Often it's only when you really consider what would be involved in the actual implementation of an idea do you fully appreciate the scope of that idea. Scenario analysis allows you to improve decision-making by fully considering the outcomes you expect and their implications without the cost and time involved in actual real world implementation.
Scenario analysis does not rely on historical data and doesn't expect the future to be the same as the past or seek to extrapolate the past into the future; rather, it tries to consider possible future developments and turning points.
It is also a very useful tool in times of uncertainty. This amplified engagement can help to anticipate more of the pros and cons of each scenario, therefore reducing risk and directing you to the best choice.
How to use scenario analysis
Scenario analysis can help the decision-making process by looking at the likely implications of that decision and how it might or could pan out in the future. In the case of Brexit uncertainties, it can help you to answer:
- which strategic direction do we take?
- what are the best countries to expand our business into?
- how will my business be affected if the pound continues to fall?
- what would be the impact of new trade relations and regulations?
Essentially what you are doing in scenario analysis is attempting to work out if the world would turn out a certain way when certain conditions were met. The process usually consists of a five-stage process.
1. Define the problem: work out what you are trying to solve or gain greater understanding in, and the time horizon of that problem, so you can make the best decision
2. Gather the data: Identify what data and information you need to make the analysis as realistic as possible. Businesses can understand and monitor trends using data from tools like Google Trends which are based on big data and the analysis of search trends.
3. Separate certainties from uncertainties: Take a moment to challenge all your current assumptions and decide if they are certainties or uncertainties. Always best to err on the side of caution. List the uncertainties in order of priority with the largest, most significant uncertainties at the top.
4. Develop scenarios: starting with the top uncertainty – what would you consider to be a good outcome for that uncertainty? What would be a bad outcome? Once you've done this develop a story of the future around each that marries the certainties with the outcome you've chosen.
5. Use the outcome in your planning: use the scenarios to influence and guide your planning.
In deeply uncertain times, like the ones we're facing post-Brexit, scenario analysis can be an incredibly useful tool to manage many different possibilities in business planning. By creating a few scenarios — even the out of left field scenario — you can end up uncovering new information or insights that were previously unknown which not only assist the outcome but can also address what's happening in the business right now.
That said, it's easy to assume that what you think you know about the current situation is true and jump to conclusions or automatically assume that you are certain about some of the influencing factors. Scenario analysis will always yield the best results when you challenge all your assumptions in the process.

I just returned from an exceptional visit to Hawaii. I spent a week meeting chancellors, faculty, sustainability coordinators, students, and all manner of people who care about the future of our planet! I addressed the Pacific Island Post-Seconday Commission. Talk about being on the front lines of climate change—sea level rise is tangible and threatening on those islands. I gave the plenary address at the Hawaii Sustainability Summit. I met dozens and dozens of interesting people. I came away with the distinct impression that the University of Hawaii system and all of its stakeholders will make a major contribution to how we think about and implement sustainability initiatives. To understand the seeds of this potential, I'd like to share a few ecological and cultural impressions.
This was my first trip to Hawaii. After recovering from the relative shock of Honolulu (it's very congested and the automobile rules), I began to appreciate Oahu as a fascinating crossroads for globalization. There are layers and layers of multicultural depth and richness, splayed over a post-colonial tradition, and now at the geographic nexus of Asia and the Americas. This cosmopolitan richness is enhanced by the complicated and intriguing ecological circumstances. Although the islands differ based on their unique geological sequence in time and space, they all share a common biogeographical challenge. The initial successional sequence (tracing the migrations of species to new lands) is superimposed by various waves of human settlement, including the first Polynesian people and species, and then the colonial histories. Invasive and indigenous species mingle in a dynamic matrix of habitats and climates. The ecological and cultural complexities are a stunning microcosm for many other places around the planet.
Amazingly, over 80% of Hawaii's food and energy is imported. Yet the islands could easily become relatively self-sufficient through local organic agriculture, wind and solar power, and other sustainability initiatives. Similar to many college and universities, The University of Hawaii (Manoa) has major infrastructure challenges. With imaginative and determined leadership, it could easily develop sustainability programs that address these questions not just for the university, but for all Hawaiians. Blended with the inspiring revival of traditional Hawaiian knowledge, all kinds of partnerships are possible. Despite all of the daunting political challenges they entail, and all of the difficulties that serge with multiple stakeholders, there are scores of interesting initiatives scattered throughout the campuses in the University of Hawaii system.
I was particularly taken by some of the efforts I observed at some of the community colleges, specifically Kapi'olani and Kauai. I had the good fortune to visit those campuses, but through conversations with people at the other campuses, I realized that sustainability seeds are scattered throughout the system.
In just a week you can only pick up fragments of activities, and it's impossible to make too many judgments. But I left Hawaii with the distinct impression that it's island geography, it's ecological and cultural richness, and it's beautiful and deep notions of Aloha and Mahalo, are an inspirational blend for future sustainability excellence.
Eric Knutzen gave us a great tour of the Aquaponics facility at Kauai Community College.

Towel is soft to the touch. I think my logo came out big, but good.
I never considered a towel could possibly be the tool for me, until I thought about my own life and how there is always a shortage in the house. Give someone something they'll use and they'll be happy. Got the stock in perfect time, the quality of the fibres they use seem just fine.
I didn't care about the quality, I was just so turned on by the fact that my logo could be imprinted huge. I laughed out loud I was that excited when I saw the virtual proof sample my CS guy provided. Massive sized logo = massive sized impressions
Love how it comes with its own package save me having to do the same job twice. Logo appears in good position for me, and staff were respectful even though I was pretty poor with staying in touch and answering emails from them.
Never expected such enthusiasm for a nail set, but people were really eager to take them home from my event. Nice one
Not a blunt tool from all I checked, really amazing you can get so much for just over half a dollar, and real people in support, not just a site, a business!
The best thing about this emery board is the flexibility and the option of colors available. It's got a very soft feel but works very hard. I actually saw my mum's sister using it & loved it instantly. It neatly tucks away into my gym pants and doesn't bulk out at all. It's perfect for the date after gym. Absolutely love it.
Excellent, flexible & worth the money I paid for. It's long lasting and doesn't wear off so easily. I have a habit of filing my nails at least 20-30 times a day. It's not spoilt even after such use. Worth every cent. I love the colours given. Wish they had a golden colour available.
It serves the purpose. It fits the pocket very well and doesn't feel bulky as it is light in weight. I wish they could make this into a keyring as it looks stylish. It also isn't expensive either. I ordered a dozen of these.
Soft, cute and amazing. Absolutely love the product so did all my clients. They sold like hot cakes so I had order another batch of these cute and amazing beach towels. Our company's logo never looked so cute as it did on these smooooth towels. I loved it and I'm sure all my clients did too.
Reallly loved the cute towels I ordered! The fabric was so soft, fluffy and had it was a bright, clean shade of white. The logo was imprinted JUST the way I wanted, with a nice font which was both prominent and clear. Thank you for such great service and product. I would certainly return to this site to order more stuff for my hostel.
You peeple hav made my day! I luv u peeple! Them small small mirrors have so beutiful logo and shining on them! Them are the best sales product in my shop! My English very weak but email people at website give me information nicly and help lots of. Je vous remercie (thnku)

If you are wondering what List Building Tools you need to build your business online and start to generate quality, targeted leads daily.
Since I started taking my online marketing seriously, I realized increasing my list was the highest priority.
Without a list to communicate with you are flapping in the wind.
I don't know any successful online marketer that doesn't have a valuable list whether large or small.
List Building Tools That Every Online Marketer Needs
The two sayings that I kept hearing were:
Makes perfect sense, right?
Here's the challenge, it's a lot harder making that fortune with the follow-up if you don't have a list! 🙂
So, every online marketer's primary goal should be two-fold, add value to your market and BUILD YOUR LIST!
List Building Tools That Every Online Marketer Needs – The Tools
1. A Secure, Fast, And Reliable BLOG
It is my humble opinion that this is a must if you are going to market online.
Having a stable, secure blog as your marketing hub is the only way to go.
I learned this the hard way by trying to cut costs and then having my blog hacked, slow and unreliable.
Your blog should be your hub and hold most if not all of your content.
You own your blog, and you control it. With the Social Media platforms, you don't have that luxury.
You are probably asking yourself at this point where can I get a blogging platform that won't break the bank?
Well here's your solution – MLSP Sites!
Check this out, and I'm confident you will agree.
2. Place to Keep and Communicate With Your List – Autoresponder
You are going to need somewhere to collect your leads and communicate with them.
Typically this is called an Autoresponder.
To start out with I would recommend Aweber.
You need to start building a relationship with your list which is your follow-up and fortune.
Some leaders email their list daily and others less often. I recommend somewhere between daily and 2-3 times a week.
The system I use is Actionetics, and I love it.
Actionetics allow you to collect your leads, communicate with your leads and manage your leads.
3. Funnel Creation Sofware
What you need to build your list is a Lead Magnet.
A Lead Magnet is something that entices your visitors to exchange their information for something of value.
Your Lead Magnet could be a FREE PDF, Training Video, Audio or anything of value for your market.
Creating a funnel to your Lead Magnet is by far the best way to capture your leads and begin your relationship.
There are a lot of Funnel Creation software systems out there but only two that I would recommend at this point.
They are MLSP's Funnelizer and ClickFunnels.
You can look at them both and make the decision that works for you and your level of expertise and your budget.
I use ClickFunnels but love them both.
4. Consistent Valuable Content
Last but certainly not least is your content.

I don't think that we have to say anything about the "payload". If some service wants to encode an XML document complete with a DTD and PIs in the SOAP:Body using base64 and CDATA, or as an attachment ala SOAP Messages with Attachments or DIME, then that's their business. One would assume that it can be handled appropriately. The exclusion of DTDs and PIs applies to SOAP-the-envelope only, IMO.

The entire cannabis industry descended on Las Vegas this week for the MJBiz conference where over 18,000 professionals gathered. While we were there, US Attorney General Jeff Sessions made some news during a Congressional grilling focused more on his involvement with Russian players.
Many have worried that Sessions intends to change or eliminate the Cole Memo. Issued in 2013, in this memo Obama's Attorney General declared, essentially, that the US will not put any priority on enforcing federal cannabis laws against those legally complying with state laws. Certain exceptions were included, such as keeping cannabis away from children and keeping organized crime out of the business.
Many in the industry felt a bit of relief when Sessions said to Congress this past Tuesday, "Our policy is the same really, fundamentally, as the Holder-Lynch [ie Obama] policy, which is that the federal law remains in effect and a state can legalize marijuana for its law enforcement purposes, but it still remains illegal with regard to federal purposes."
Sessions made some more news as well. For the first time, he agreed that cannabis is not as dangerous as heroin, even though both are listed as Schedule I drugs, i.e. deemed the most dangerous of all. He had previously called cannabis "only slightly less awful" than heroin.
In addition, he acknowledged that "we are bound" by the Rohrabacher-Blumenauer amendment, a statutory mandate. This amendment, renewed annually since 2014, prevents the use of federal funds to go after those complying with state medical marijuana laws. There had been some question after the most recent amendment thanks to a confusing statement issued by President Trump. Some interpreted the statement as potentially suggesting Trump views the amendment as not constitutional. Sessions has been attempting to convince Congress not to renew the amendment in the current budget.

Healthy living is an easy blend of simple living and healthy choices. I've mentioned simple living; I see 'healthy choices' as choosing nuts, kale, avocado and milk over chocolate, chips, pizza, and Sprite. In other words: choosing nutrition — a need — over 'junk' — a want and keeping a balance between the two; sure, indulge in pizza and coke on weekends but let's not splurge on our favourite junk foods on a daily basis.
While healthy thing living may be ideal, it is essential to put living, exercising, and eating into perspective. Maintain balance and perspective when you eat; savour life and the food you eat -- be it sweet and sugary (think cinnamon rolls!) or plain and nutritious (think spinach).
Be intentional. Know what you're eating and what it is good for (eggs and nuts are a source of protein, spinach a source of iron, and so on). Buy good food, make good food, and most likely you'll eat good food. It is equally important to be intentional in what you listen to, read, wear and how you act. Classical music (as well as music in general) stimulates the mind. Reading literature that encourages you to think critically benefits your mental health! Even clothing has psychological effects. Clearly, how you act toward, judge and love others is crucial to living a healthy life.
Get to the root of the issue.
What is stopping you from eating healthy? What is it that makes you want junk food? Stress? Shopping habits? Worries? Obligations? Get rid of them!
Maintain reasonable goals
...for instance, why not try cooking something different and healthy, eating fried egg for breakfast, and working out for 7 minutes?
Get a friend to shop for you or try online shopping
Give your simple, healthy shopping list to a friend so that you can resist the temptation of a dark chocolate Cadbury bar sitting at the end of the aisle. Online shopping is a great alternative to shopping in person -- and it's a better way to resist picking up items of food you really don't need.
Buy or borrow a good cookbook.
Look for a cookbook without a million foreign ingredients you don't have or haven't heard of. Libraries have cookbooks, too! Or start an email or Facebook chain where you tag friends and share your favourite recipes. Ask a parent or relative for a few of their healthy favourites.
Go natural... and cheap.
Companies earn billions of dollars each year when people like you and I buy their beauty products. Do we really need the latest (and apparently greatest) cleanser or face moisturiser? I replaced cleanser for Dove soap and moisturiser for Virgin Coconut Oil. Dove soap cleared up some of the small bumps (milia) on my forehead. Coconut oil de-frizzed my hair and my legs felt so soft. Also, drinking more water (8 or so cups a day) made my skin noticeably clearer.
greek yogurt + bananas topped with some (unhealthy?) chocolate. it's all about balance.
Do you have any healthy routines or habits? I'd love to hear from you!

When you think of the word "confidence," what types of image comes to mind?
Maybe you've conjured up acute imagery of that "Fonzie" type character that just oozes confidence. You know, that guy that seems like he is stuck in a time warp of yesteryear, but can get all the chicks, rides a motorcycle, probably plays in a rock band of some sorts, and has this unspoken aura of sureness in his grease-monkey demeanor. Maybe it's thoughtful apparitions of a grizzly-faced action hero being briefed on how he is outnumbered by the bad guys and simply laughing in the face of danger. But, can I ask, did you think of yourself?
When it comes to being a Conversational Marketing Expert (CME) at Incept, I think the biggest thing I personally notice in my communicative comrades is that they exuberantly emit this vibe of confidence in each one of their conversations. And, trust me, the donors we speak with can hear that in our voices. When you speak to someone, even if it isn't face to face, that person can definitely pick up on the initial tone you put out.
So whether you are afraid to talk to that cute girl in your apartment complex or unsure how to start negotiations with your boss for that big raise, do not fear. We are going to go over some basic things you can do to feel confident and increase confidence in your everyday conversations.
- You are awesome
In most cases, perception is reality. If you aren't one of those people who were born with a sense of great self-confidence, then this is your starting point. Focus on reasons why you are a great person to talk to and those thoughts of self-reflection will surface in your conversations. That does not mean come across brash and rude speaking about how wonderful you are, but develop a sense of self-worth that will encourage you to come out of your shell. You are a smart individual who is definitely capable of connecting and captivating people. When you realize this, starting a conversation can be much easier.
- Personalize the conversation
Everyone likes to be recognized or simply hear their own name. It feels good, and it makes the person with whom you are conversing more comfortable. When you are talking with someone try interjecting their name in the dialog. It will show you are interested in talking with them, as well as provide a sign of respect that will build you good rapport.
- Smile while you talk
When you are talking to someone on the phone who has had a bad day, can't you hear that tone in their voice? On the other hand, when we are speaking with someone who has had a good day we can tend to hear the smile in their tone. From personal experience as a CME (Conversational Marketing Expert), I can say that when you smile there is something about your tone that changes. People feel at ease not only by you looking confident and happy but also by the tone that is a byproduct of it all. This can be whether you are in person or not and is quite effective.
- Listen to be in control
This is particularly important to a CME (Conversational Marketing Expert). One of the easiest things you can do to let a conversation flow naturally and freely is to get your subject talking about him or herself. I know as a CME (Conversational Marketing Expert) I have always asked, "What got you donating blood in the first place?" The donor will usually give a brief tale about how they started, and I can notice the change in their voice when I ask them things like that. People love to talk about themselves, and sometimes being in control of the conversation is letting someone talk about their past or something they are interested in. It gives you the chance to listen and build immediate rapport with them. Based on the outcome of their answer, you can control where the conversation then goes.
Remember, all these tips I have presented above I learned or at least sharpened through being a Conversational Marketing Expert (CME), but you can use these tips in everyday life to feel a little more confident about walking into an unknown conversation or even being the one to initiate a conversation.
What helps you to be conversationally confident when talking with a stranger?

These Top Basketball Players with Migraines Fight On the Court and Off
Given the intense physical exertion, bright arena lights, squeaking shoes and shrieking fans, basketball players and coaches who suffer from migraine struggle on and off the court. Like all migraine sufferers, they're balancing the demands of the job with preservation of their health.
1 – Scottie Pippen
Scottie Pippen won 6 NBA titles playing alongside Michael Jordan and the Chicago Bulls while battling migraines on and off the court. Two of his defining moments are related to his refusal to play with a migraine. First, in 1990 he missed Game 7 of the Eastern Conference finals because of a migraine. Four years later, he refused to play with a migraine during the final 1.8 seconds of a playoff game.
He told ESPN, "Well, there's always a little bit of regret. But things happen in life, different situations, and that was just a learning situation for me. From the migraine to sitting out the 1.8, I learned to be better about taking care of my body and preparing myself to be a professional every day." Even top athletes have to slow down and care for their health when a migraine strikes.
2- Steve Kerr
Steve Kerr made a name for himself playing for the Chicago Bull's in the 1990s. He went on to become the head coach of the Golden State Warriors as well as a Chronic Migraine Warrior himself. After two surgeries on his back, Kerr developed daily migraines that caused him to miss 43 games of a season.
He still coaches today while dealing with chronic migraines. Steve Kerr told ESPN, "It reminds you of how fragile everything is. It sounds like a cliché, but it really is true. We're all vulnerable. So vulnerable."
3- Dwayne Wade (pictured at top)
Dwayne Wade's migraines have impacted his life and his career with Miami Heat enough that he is open with the press about the steps he takes to manage them. Wade has dealt with migraines for years, and he understands how they make the future seem uncertain.
He has dealt with migraine attacks during NBA games – a very loud, bright environment that is perfectly wrong for a migraine. At home, he keeps it dark and quiet.
Wade told the Sun Sentinel, "Every [migraine attack] is different and has a mind of it's own, but hopefully it will be better. It's gotten a little better with diet and not doing some of the things they say can trigger it and being careful of light at the wrong times, especially early in the morning." Wade is proof that top athletes with Migraine use the same tools as the rest of us to manage attacks.
Dwayne Wade's attempts to get the NBA to accommodate his legitimate medical condition are also indicative of the experiences many of us have with our employers. In 2011, an intense attack left him with lingering light sensitivity, so he found a pair of tinted goggles to wear during basketball games. The NBA objected, though, claiming that they gave him an unfair advantage because other players couldn't see his eyes (and yet, isn't looking at lights without pain an advantage?)
In the end, they settled on a less-tinted pair, but it seemed to hurt Wade's performance more than help it.
4 – Jason Williams
Jason Williams played for 12 seasons as a point-guard in the NBA and was known for his flashy, "street-style" way of playing basketball. During his 12 seasons, Jason occasionally missed games because of a migraine.
5 – Andrew Bogut
Andrew Bogut is a 7-foot tall center who has played with the Milwaukee Bucks, Golden State Warriors, and Dallas Mavericks. Bogut has suffered from migraines since he was 11 years old, and as a professional basketball player he has spoken out about Migraine to raise awareness.
Migraines hit Bogut pretty hard, as he told the Salt Lake Tribune in 2005, "I can't hardly see out of my left eye. And my body just – the whole left side will go numb, so I'm really only feeling with half my body," he says. "Then I have to get in a dark room, and the migraine will start. Then, it's just like someone's hitting a hammer on my head, basically."
6 – Kareem Abdul-Jabbar
As a superstar center for the Los Angeles Lakers, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar set the career point record with 38,387 points. He is also a long-time migraine sufferer. During a 1982 NBA championship game he was struck with a migraine attack that hurt his performance. He said, "Nine points, two rebounds. Not much of a game."
The next time you're laid up with a migraine and feeling frustrated, cut yourself some slack. Remember that, although they may be invisible, migraine attacks are powerful enough to knock even a 7-foot basket player in peak physical shape on his bum. (Kareem Abdul-Jabbar is 7 feet 2 inches tall!)
You may even whisper a word of gratitude because, unlike these top basketball players with migraines, you can easily avoid the lights, sounds, and expectations of an NBA game while dealing with Migraine.
Comments? Are you surprised to learn that any of the these basketball stars suffer from migraines?

Rich Habits Word of the Day
Duplicity – Deceitful. The duplicity of gossiping was so rampart in the office that the CEO was forced to forbid it.
Rich Habits Fact of the Day
"There is no better way to start conflict, than to spread gossip!"
The definition of gossip is simple, "Rumor or talk of a personal or sensational nature, someone who habitually spreads sensational or intimate facts." Webster's Dictionary
Rich Habits Lesson of the Day
Gossiping is a Poverty Habits. Wealthy, successful people do not gossip because gossiping damages relationships and to the successful, relationships are like gold. Gossiping is almost always negative, behind the scenes character assassination. It is done by those who are absorbed in a negative mindset. Negativity is the path to poverty, whereas a positive mindset is the path to prosperity and success.

Gregory the Fruitman here in Rodney Bay. Every day, rain or shine, fresh papayas, mangoes, pineapples. He blows a conch horn to let you know he's at your boat.
Well, we're still here in Rodney Bay, St. Lucia. Its been almost 3 weeks now - about 2 weeks too long, but we are stuck waiting for parts for our watermaker which quit the morning after we received the other boat bits we were waiting for! It all takes time in "de islands, Mon". Also, the weather is starting to deteriorate (currently rain squalls with gusts to 25 knots) and looks like it will get pretty nasty over the next week, with squalls to 50 knots and 13 ft. seas in the open waters. We'll likely stay put until it calms down toward the end of next week. Still, we don't expect much sympathy from our friends up North.
To keep ourselves amused, we've been to several Happy Hours at the various bars along the beach, hiked up to see the fort built by Admiral Rodney on Pigeon Island, rented a car to drive down to see the volcano at Soufriere, shopped in the market at Castries and swim everyday off the back of the boat. We are also doing boat chores and visiting with Lynn and Randy, who are also still here waiting for a good weather window. Had a very nice dinner the other night on their boat. We may rent a car with them and try heading to the rainforest and out to the East coast. Once the weather settles, we plan to scoot down to Bequia and the Tobago Keys, staying there as long as we can while keeping an eye out for any hurricane activity in the South Atlantic.
Gardening at 8 knots! A nice way to combine your hobbies....

"Life ain't all beer and skittles…". Installing new solar panel controllers (Blue Sky MPPT units that seem to be living up to the advertising and delivering about 15% more output from our 480 watts of solar panels). Doing anything, even at night (so there is no output from the panels), creates rivers of sweat. Cathy had to stand by to mop up so I didn't drip into the circuitry.

Our friends Lynn and Randy of the Canadian yacht "High States". They are from

Life is good! Cathy and I sailing along in about 15 knots of (warm) wind in flat water on the West side of St. Lucia. Boat is moving along nicely at 8+ knots. Our friend Dave took the picture, and then he gave us some sail trim advice and got us sailing closer to the wind and faster. Once a racer always a racer! Thanks Dave!
Life will be good again as soon as I finish cleaning out the almost inaccessible bow compartment!

Tristan and Cathy sitting down to breakfast at anchor off Vieques in Spanish Virgin Islands. Vieques used to be a US Navy firing range. Tristan wanted to find some of the unexploded ordnance that the signs kept warning us about. We did find what looked like it might have been a shell partially buried in the shallows, but left it undisturbed – much to T's frustration!
We are anchored in North Sound, Virgin Gorda, BVIs. One of our favourite spots. Just taking a pause to tighten the trampoline nets before we head across the Anegada Passage that night to St. Maartens. The tighter they are the less chance that the fastenings will break when the nets are submerged as the boat pounds through waves going to windward. And the bows do completely submerge at times!

Here's their policy regarding violent imagery (emphasis is mine):
Facebook has long been a place where people turn to share their experiences and raise awareness about issues important to them. Sometimes, those experiences and issues involve graphic content that is of public interest or concern, such as human rights abuses or acts of terrorism. In many instances, when people share this type of content, it is to condemn it. However, graphic images shared for sadistic effect or to celebrate or glorify violence have no place on our site.
It would seem the textbook definition of dog fighting that in some way it celebrates or glorifies violence and usually for sadistic effect. I mean, Michael Vick didn't go to prison for nearly two years for no reason.
And some have noted this is clearly not a page run by anyone in America. It appears to be Turkish, in fact, where supposedly, and if true then also despicably, dog fighting is legal. That should have no impact on Facebook, however, a multinational corporation whose allegiance should be to general good taste and human decency, all of which no matter its legality, dog fighting is not.
It's probable this is some kind of glitch, oversight, not the earnest response of the flesh-and-blood people behind Facebook, but that still doesn't really excuse it. If you're interested in viewing the page while it's still up (and I hope soon it is not) Click Here -- but be warned, there are many graphic images. Please do tweet @Facebook about what they're condoning. And spread the word. My friend Robyn Pennacchia has written about the issue as well over at Death+Taxes.
And finally, perhaps most disturbingly of all, the group's membership has actually grown since I first noticed it, proving once again that it's never too loathsome for people to double down. I encourage no one to join the group who is actively interested in its removal.
UPDATE 9/8/2014: Happy to say I finally received this notice from Facebook:
We reviewed the photo you reported for containing graphic violence. Since it violated our Community Standards, we removed it. Thanks for your report. We let Game Dog Pitbull know that their photo has been removed, but not who reported it.
And while it's not the wholesale removal of a group that glorifies dog fighting (which might have the benefit, if allowed to remain open, of allowing people who participate on it in places it's illegal to be identified and prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law), it's at least a start.
I still think the site should be removed entirely, especially because it's likely most of the people actively participating on it live in countries where this sort of animal abuse is legal for some insane reason. That means, even if it were to become illegal there (say for instance in Turkey, where it's said to be legal), ex post facto designation and all would make something that's already not likely to be prosecuted even less likely. At least Facebook could take a demonstrative stand against this activity, which should never be condoned, even implicitly.
UPDATE 9/10/2014: Facebook has finally made the decision to remove the pro-dog fighting group from the website entirely. Thanks for getting the word out, everyone. Glad to see most people don't condone this sort of thing.
UPDATE 9/10/2014: Wait! Oops, no! Instead, Facebook has allowed the group to continue its existence AND even the worst photos are still on the site.
UPDATE 9/11/2014: So I presume it's possible for someone to re-upload pictures that violate community standards, but I gather that's not the case here. Everything I think about whatever is going on in the byzantine, essentially Kafkaesque corporate structure of Facebook is at this point pure speculation. Still, once again, after having reported the most violent image on the group's page and that report being at first rejected for defying "Community Standards" it is now once again been subject to further review and found to have, in fact, yes, violated "Community Standards." Figure if nothing else it's good to chronicle all the absurdity here, for some kind of record.
UPDATE 9/13/2014: Did I mention Facebook alerted me to the fact that they again removed a particularly violent photo from the offending group? No? Will it stay gone? How can anyone know?

The program helps HIV-positive women escape rejection and poverty through teaching them how to create sustainable livelihoods. The first stage of the program is called HIV intervention, which focuses on the physical and emotional healing of HIV-positive women through support groups, home-based care and advocacy. After this initial stage, the women are enrolled in the Women's Economic Empowerment Program (WEEP), which teaches them skills such as tailoring and mat-making and how they can use those skills to develop a business plan. The women receive support through the entire process of business creation, and gradually become more financially independent until their businesses are fully financially-independent and sustainable.

QUIET DAY "Are you tired? Worn out? Burned out on religion? Come to me. Get away with me and you'll recover your life. I'll show you how to take a real rest. Walk with me and work with me—watch how I do it. Learn the unforced rhythms of grace. I won't lay anything heavy or ill-fitting on you. Keep company with me and you'll learn to live freely and lightly."
Matthew 11: 28-30
If those verses resonate with you, then I am pleased to let you know that John Nuttall will be visiting us again on the weekend of 12-13 November. On the Saturday, he will lead a 'time of retreat', involving quiet, music, space for reflection, worship, ministry, and teaching. He also joins us for our 10:00am service, at which he will be speaking and playing some of his own music.
We will choose the venue for the 'Quiet Day' on the Saturday based on the number of people who would like to attend. Please would you let Jon know whether you would like to come in the next couple of weeks (even if you can't definitely commit), so that a decision can be made. Thank you.

Not gonna lie: when I think of the Scripps National Spelling Bee, neither Kelis nor her songs ever cross my mind. But all that has changed now. When Sriram Hathwar was asked to spell "Feijoada," (which I learned was a Brazilian stew-type dish) he asked for the word to be used in a sentence. Pretty typical. But pronouncer Dr. Jacques Bailly had other plans, namely plans to drop the greatest pop culture reference in Scripps history. Whatever, Bailly is the 1980 Spelling Bee champion, so he's definitely earned the right to reference the esteemed Kelis whenever he goddamn pleases.
You gotta love the voice of the lady who was clearly (though inexplicably) unimpressed telling Bailly to stop, as well as the total oblivion that sweeps across Sriram's face. Yep. He has no idea what's going on or why people are laughing at a milkshake. Or what that has to do with the damn feijoada. (Also, bonus-love for South Asian people—that fading dot of kumkum on Sriram's forehead. You know his mama put that on there and made him pray, maybe light a lamp, before sending him out the door).

OPENING RECEPTION, Friday, December 11, 6-9PM
Featuring a performance from Chapel Hill High School Alleycats
What are Universal Forms? They are the modes of organizing space and matter that natural forces have employed for millennia. They are the essence of spatial economy, yet they enable expansion, growth, and survival. They are in many ways life itself. The show 'Intersections' consists of three artists' unique visions of Universal Form, and how those visions intersect despite their use of diverse mediums - paint, clay, and metal. Through their work, these artists strive to invite contemplation into the systems of nature as portrayed by pattern and shape: forms from beneath and above our everyday realms; workings seen and unseen; the incomprehensibly far and the inconceivable near. Universal Form is the thing that unites these three artists, and the embrace of this idea in art serves to remind that all things in existence are deeply connected.

At the Ad Astra science fiction convention I attended recently in Toronto, a number of panels touched on the question of realistic spaceships in fiction.
Star Wars X-wing fighters? Not realistic, especially in space. With no air for wing surfaces to act on, there's no reason to have wing-like structures, and no sensible way the ships would swoop and soar, darting in and around larger ships and into canyon-like spaces on death stars.
The mothership from Close Encounters of the Third Kind is gorgeous, and impressive as hell, but I can't imagine any practical reason to make a ship with so many strange levels, and bizarre things sticking out of it.
Star Trek's beloved Enterprise? Well the idea that a burst of plasma from a matter-antimatter reaction could push a ship forward is OK, but there's never any indication of how it slows down again. It creates a "warp field" to allow it to surpass the speed of light and then pops out of warp drive at some unspecified speed that doesn't seem to be related to anything. Then it goes into orbit around a planet. Real spaceships have to use just as much thrust to slow down as they use to speed up, or possibly harness the drag from a planetary atmosphere for braking (a process that involves a lot of orbits and a lot of excess heat to deal with).
Creators of space-based games like Warhammer 40000 use their imagination to design warships with bat-like wings, spidery legs, huge tail fins, tentacles etc., all to look alien and cool. Except all those frills add huge quantities of extra mass, surplus surface area (the easier to be hit by intentional fire or debris), all amounting to vast areas of waste space.
The Discovery from 2001: A Space Odyssey was realistic, and some of the ways spacecraft behaved in the recent TV series The Expanse weren't too bad. Overall, though, an awful lot of fiction just plain ignores the realities of space travel, especially the time it would take to get places, the huge amounts of fuel required, and physical properties like inertia and momentum. Things that aren't moving don't want to move, and things that are moving don't want to stop. To make them do either requires a lot of force. To expect to travel through space with the convenience and comfort of the family car, in a sleek package that looks like a futuristic jet fighter, just isn't, well…realistic.
Of course, the plausibility of a spacecraft design has as much to do with its intended purpose as with its technology.
Gigantic spaceships, many kilometers long (Star Wars, Independence Day, the game Eve online) with vast chambers full of complex plumbing might make for exciting chase scenes and dramatic battle sequences, but large size usually means excessive mass (what on Earth we'd call weight) and the greater the mass, the more force required to get it moving, stop it from moving, or change its course. So high mass is generally not a desirable thing in a spaceship. In a space battle such a behemoth would be virtually impossible to get out of the way of an incoming missile or other weapon. And what do they need so much room for anyway? On the other hand, a colony ship intended to travel to another star could require centuries for the trip, so it would have to be enormous—you'd need to carry enough people to ensure a genetically diverse population for the colony, and maybe even an entire Earth ecosystem to transplant in the new world. Another justification for high mass (though not necessarily large size) would be if the ship required something like a big shield of water around it to protect the occupants from cosmic radiation. (FYI, here's an amazing graphic showing size comparisons of nearly every fictional spaceship out there. Wow!)
Spaceships that are never intended to enter an atmosphere have no need for a sexy streamlined shape—they can be as ungainly as you want, as long as the structure can handle the strain of acceleration and deceleration. But a shuttle craft to and from a planet's surface would benefit from an aerodynamic design, able to get some lift on the glide down, and with less wind resistance to contend with on the way back up.
One of the ways TV and movie spaceships most often fail in the realism department is that they don't include enough space for the fuel the ship would use. They'll show a craft about the size of a small bus to carry a dozen people to and from orbit (like in the movie Elysium). The American space shuttles were the size of passenger jetliners for a crew of seven, and required a mammoth liquid-fuel rocket and two solid-fuel boosters just to get them into orbit. Sure, we hope there will be significant gains in efficiency in the coming century or two, but as long as spacecraft use reaction drives (shooting something out the back to push them forward) they'll require a significant amount of mass to eject. And gravity isn't going away anytime soon.
What's your biggest complaint about spaceships in fiction—the faux-pas that blow all their credibility out of the water?
There are some ideas being explored that could make "unrealistic" spacecraft into viable concepts. We'll have some fun looking at them in my next post.

Reflection: This week, consistency.
If we are to do our best work in the face of constant uncertainty, perhaps we must first hone our inner virtues as guidance. So here in these notes I'll be reflecting on various themes. This week, consistency.
Maintaining consistency over time is easily the most difficult part of designing the habits that fuel meaningful work. No answers below, but consistency requires perspective—so perhaps there's some to be gleaned anyhow.
There's much inspiration to be drawn from ceremonies and ritual. I've found it nice to have in mind the 16th century work of Sen no Rikyu, responsible for much of the culture and ritual surrounding tea in Japan.
A more modern example draws on psychological research to make the case that creativity is a habit, not a talent. The ability to do work that matters can (must!) be cultivated over time.
Last year Makeway spoke with small and independent business owners doing smart things to build strong customer relationships. While describing how the music label Ghostly International has grown to be so successful, founder Sam Valenti IV left us with a gem: "I suppose that it's about consistency. That we are always launching new things, there is never a rest period so to speak. Hopefully we get better with each iteration, which makes the experience better for those involved."
As part of my own ritual, the scarves I'm producing are made and worn with individuals in my life in mind, those who embody the virtues I value. I've started simply by telling their stories alongside each scarf. I'll be doing more, later—for now, find both scarves and virtues at www.alwayscomposure.com.
One sign-off now, a consistent many to follow.

Kingsman: The Secret Service Sequel Confirmed/
With the massive collection of comic book movies coming out, it is no surprise 20th Century Fox has greenlit the sequel to the box office success Kingsman: The Secret Service. The film which is based off of Mark Millar and Dave Gibbons' Icon Comic series "The Secret Service" was a box office hit earning over $400 million globally. It started off slowly but picked up momentum as the weeks went on.
Kingsman: The Secret Service is a 2014 spy movie, directed by Matthew Vaughn, and created by Dave Gibbons and Mark Millar. The film stars Colin Firth, Samuel L. Jackson, Mark Strong, Taron Egerton and Michael Caine. It follows the recruitment and training of a potential secret agent, Gary "Eggsy" Unwin, into a secret spy organisation. Eggsy joins a mission to tackle a global threat from Richmond Valentine, a wealthy eco-terrorist.
Although Fox has yet to announce a date for the sequel, you can expect they will be trying to get this one out as soon as possible.

After a Harpers Ferry business lost roughly $100,000 worth of technical equipment in a fire last week, several Frederick companies stepped in to help the West Virginia business reconstruct its operations.
By Paige Jones, Frederick News-Post.
Data Direct Inc., an information technology business, was one of eight businesses destroyed in the fire that engulfed at least three historic buildings in Harpers Ferry early Friday.
"We had alarms, of course, so the alarm company called us at 3:30 in the morning that [Friday]," said John Maxey, president of Data Direct. "We jumped in the car [and when we arrived], there were fire companies from three states and federal agencies. It was quite something to see; there was smoke just pouring down along the Shenandoah River ... and flames were just shooting up into the sky."
Maxey said Data Direct lost computers, printers and network devices in the fire. Invaluable paper records were also lost, and the Potomac Street building was damaged, he said.
"We're very lucky to be in a type of business that isn't reliant on the physical location. ... We had the ability to move and stay in business this way," Maxey said. "We consider ourselves to be very lucky."
Data Direct is operating at an office near Charles Town, West Virginia, a luxury that other businesses do not have. This, coupled with help from several businesses based in Frederick, made it possible for the business to get back on its feet within days of the fire, according to Maxey.
Through working with the electronics recycling company e-End, which is based in Frederick, Maxey said he acquired computer monitors, work stations and other used technical equipment at a discounted price of roughly $2,000.
"They had everything I was looking for, for just a fraction of what it would cost," Maxey said.
Without e-End, Maxey speculated he would have had to order the equipment from Dell. It likely would have taken several weeks for Maxey to receive the shipment, and cost thousands of dollars more, he said.
"To be able to just drive to Frederick, go in this warehouse and find anything I can imagine ... it was such a great feeling," Maxey said.
Steve Chafitz, president of e-End, described Maxey as a "kid in a candy shop" during his visit to e-End. The company not only had the servers Maxey needed, but also other equipment such as cables and monitors.
"We were more excited than he was ... excited we could help him," Chafitz said.
Jason Zarrella and Dylan Lipp, members of e-End's IT department, helped Maxey secure the equipment he needed. In addition, Zarrella said he helped test all the products to ensure they worked properly, which took roughly three hours.
"It felt very good to be able to … get him the things he needed to get his business up and running, and we were also able to provide equipment for a great deal less," Zarrella said.
Maxey spent about 2½ hours at e-End last week gathering equipment and returned Tuesday for more, Chafitz said.
"We showed him the products, went over the things he was looking for, helped collect enough material to be able to rebuild his network — everything from the cabinets down to the wires he would need for every system," Zarrella said.
In addition to e-End, Maxey said Data Direct has also received help from Ameritel Corp., an office equipment supplier, and Restronic, a restoration service. Both are based in Frederick.
"That's the kind of thing businesses have to depend on each other for," Maxey said, referring to the businesses helping other businesses. "It's gratifying to see people do that."
