I have a single V3, whom is currently a Furawatchi named Nix and his Teletchi, the soon-to-be-named Lex. (After Lex Luthor.) My logs can be found at this link.
If I could get one more Tama, I'd want a V2. Unfortunately, Ebay is my only option and I'm afraid I would be ripped off. Even so, I had bad V1 battery-draining experiences, and I don't want to break the bank buying batteries. Ha ha ha, alliteration. See, the only batteries that lasted anywhere NEAR the time they were supposed to were $20 jewelry story batteries. I've heard Wal-Mart batteries work though, but I keep forgetting to check the price.
Thank you so much, TigerLily!

Last night, I typed up a nice, long log.
Then, my browser stopped responding, and I lost it.
I was furious.
Before I try to retype everything, I'm going to tell you a little about myself. My name's Alexa, I'm sixteen, turning seventeen on the 24th of this month. I'm graduating high school this spring, a year early, and it's tough. I find that my Tamagotchi help me deal with the stress and handle everything that's happening. They ground me; and I've always loved having them around.
Soo...what's happened to Alexa & co in the last few days
Welp...two nights ago, I stayed up until around three AM, and at midnight, I got to watch Chii and Kairi leave their little boys...It's always sad to watch. I'll miss them...
I woke up the next morning and heard the shimmery sound on my ocean...which revealed to me a Kaitchi!
I've had her before. It's hard not to get the worst character on an Ocean tam when you have four other tamas going...she's a cutie, though. Quite demanding, but indeed a cutie!
It wasn't five minutes before I heard *another* shimmery sound, and I turned to little Ashe, who became a Pukatchi!
She's on the right side of the chart. She's cute! She's still in Tamaschool though, which is odd. So I guess she's currently a bum.
I also woke up to two crying boys, a Teletchi and a Puchitchi, who turned into a Mizutamatchi and a Hitodetchi, respectively.
I named the Puchitchi Regal. I've been reading a story about a Navajo prince named Soaring Eagle, and since that is obviously far more than five characters, I squeezed in some letters and syllables, and got a synonym to royal to boot! I think it suits him. I named the Teletchi Kura, after Yami Bakura from YuGIOh. He's evil and snarky, and I think his character is funny.
I'd been aiming for the best characters from then on, but I took them to school with me today, and let their hearts drop to two once or twice...whoops. Regal turned into a Poruperatchi, and Kura *just* turned into a Nikatchi...wow, I didn't know I'd been *that* bad...ah well.
Also, I'm pretty pissed, because today my black v3 got a HUGE ugly scratch thing on the screen! I'm heartbroken! I need some of that scratch filler used for eyeglasses to fill it in. Anyone know where I can get some cheap?
Mimitchi is getting a little demanding at 16. I confess, when I started coming to mimitchi.com, oh, seven or eight years ago, I started raising Mimitchi like Kat did, and found that helped me get through some rough times back then. He was always great to have around.
Aside from that, my Tamas and I have been having some special movie time.
What movies, you ask?
Defensive driving movies!
I got a ticket a few months ago, and if I go through a Defensive Driving course, it gets wiped from my record. I found a course with no reading, and flash cartoons and videos instead. Now, my tamas and I know how to drive safely.
I also bought a Ciao Uratama from Jason, and mailed in the IMO today after school. The line at the post office was so long. Don't even get me started.
My tamas and I have some more defensive driving videos to watch, so I'm gonna leave you with my current stats:
Blue P2
Mimitchi, 16 yrs.
Blue bubbles Ocean
Sass the Kaitchi, 7 yrs.
Purple Connexion 2
Regal the Poruperatchi, 1 yr
Clear black V3
Kura the Nikatchi, 1 yr
(no image)
Ashe the Pukatchi, 6 yrs.
Current occupation: Bum
Oh, and due to popular demand, here are some shellpainting pics!
and here's a link to a slightly bigger pic of the group:

Wow, so very impressive. I love the Mimitchi <3 You did a beautiful job - so very stunning! And a very nice log. I went to your website - you're so very talented, your work is incredable!
Sorry you had to write your log twice, I know how frustrating that can be :/
I've found myself combating retarded browsers/websites by Copying all of the text right before I hit enter on very long posts. That's saved me so many times in the past on chat boards. Sorry it happened

Time for another log! Thanks for the compliments on the painted tamas, guys :3
Right now I'm listening to DJ-TigerLily's Sanity Impaired, and I'm loving it. My tamas have had an interesting couple of days.
I had everyone paused all week because of school except for Regal and Kura, who went to school with me every day. On Friday in physics, I was caring for Regal when my teacher walked over with his hand open, thinking I was texting. I reached in for my phone and gave it to him instead, because I knew he'd give it back. He yelled at me after class for "texting", but he gave me back my phone. I gave him my phone to protect my Connexion 2...that's tama devotion for you.
This week has been a long, gloomy, and depressing one. My friend Kristen invited me over to spend the night on Friday to cheer me up, and we watched You, Me & Dupree and The Producers, which were both really funny. I had all my tamas with me because we were expecting a huge freeze, and I had Regal and Kura unpaused and awake for most of the night.
At about one in the morning, Regal changed into a Batafuratchi!
It fits him. He was named after a fictional Navajo prince named Soaring Eagle, and he grew wings! About an hour later, Kura turned into Hanatchi!
They're both so cute. I actually have a pair of wings as an item, and I let Regal use them, and he gets even bigger, prettier butterfly wings. It's adorable!
Mimitchi is demanding at 18, and Sass the Kaitchi is demanding as always. She's 8 right now, which is quite a long time for an ocean tam. Poor girl.
I connected Regal and Ashe a few times, and Regal has given her three poops, flowers, and a cake so far. Ashe only gave him nice things. She rates him with two smiles on her meter, and he rates her with four. What a surprise...Kura's been a little nicer to her, giving her flowers, and she rates him with two smiles.
There goes Sass beeping again---she loses three hunger hearts to every happy heart. Poor thing.
I can't wait for my Uratama to get here...I mailed Jason's payment on Monday. He should have gotten it by now, and I should probably expect the Uratama in a week or so.
Oh, Ashe got a job today! I think she's a teacher...her item is a book. I get paid 1230 GP a day.
Oh good lord, Sass just lost all four of her hunger hearts in those five minutes. Again.
I should go

Hey! Much has happened.
Well, not an hour after I finished my last log, Sass beeped at me, and while I was scrolling to play with her, she started beeping differently...that familliar Tama death beep. Poor girl. She was 9. I'm proud of myself for raising an Ocean that old.
I promptly restarted her, and now I have a little Kuragetchi again. I kind of like Ocean tamas, I don't know why, but even though they're challenging, I find them fun. This coming from the kid who always picked the meanest, fastest horse to ride in horseback riding, and stuck paper in her shoes to reach the height limit for the biggest roller coasters...Figures xD
Mimitchi is really demanding now. I had a horrible day yesterday, I watched a nasty, depressing movie, and a lot of stuff has been going on in my life, and I fell apart. I started crying while I was on the computer, and then Mimitchi beeped at me, and all of his happy hearts were empty.
All of my happy hearts were empty too. We had a moment.
Then, later on, I called one of my good friends and he helped cheer me up.
I paused the rest of the gang while I went to school today, only taking Kuragetchi with me, who I hadn't named yet. My friend Wendi in my AP English class suggested Nemo. I don't know why I hadn't thought of it
I put Nemo on pause during weightlifting and Pre-cal, and then at lunch, my friend Morgan gave me a little green tin box. Morgan is the older brother of my ex-boyfriend, Marshal. I'm technically a junior in high school(even though I have senior status and I'm graduating early), Morgan is a senior, and Marshal is a sophomore, a year younger than I.
So I get this green box, and Morgan tells me it's all of the stuff of mine that Marshal still had. We broke up last June, and it was kind of nasty, but we've been talking on and off, and this weekend I told him about V4s(we enjoyed tamas together heheh) and he was really excited. He had in his posession a brown Digimon of mine, some earrings and barrettes I left at his house, a bandana, a sculpture, and a 10 inch ponytail of my hair that I cut off last August. I have short hair now and I really want my long hair back. But anyway.
I was going home for lunch, and I ran to my car because it was freezing! I shout out to you Americans out there, it's COLD! I'm in Texas and we were in the 20s today! I digress. I got into my car and discovered how to open this green box, it had a strange lock on it, and I used my little lock-cracking tricks from the movies to get it open. Everything was inside--all the little knicknacks he owed me, including my hair.
But something else was inside.
Next to my brown Digimon, there lay a clear Digimon with orange trim. I remembered that he had one, and it was a Japanese one--a second generation Digimon, with Gabumon as one of the teens. I looked closer, and on the screen, I saw a little white Z moving back and forth. It was alive!
I scrolled to the clock, and it was stopped on 12:00 AM. The seconds remained at zero--the clock was STOPPED, and it wasn't on SET. I pressed A and C, set the time to 12 AM, and scrolled back to the main screen. I turned on the lights to see an Angemon asleep in bed!
After lunch I set the time to 1 PM or so. I checked his stats, he was 99 yrs and 80 something lbs. I left him running. He's acting a whole lot like Kat's old MetalGreymon...emptying 4 hungry hearts every 10 minutes with just one strength heart. I don't know if he's ever going to leave, since he's 99.
I'm keeping him though. I think he's lucky :3 I mean, I randomly get an Angemon! It feels like I'm in an RPG, and I just found an item, or a random event just happened.
I also later pressed the buttons on my old brown digi, and discovered that even though the screen was blank at first, when I pressed them, it came back to life! The batteries must be really low. I checked the lights and saw that it's a 99 year old MetalGreymon. I haven't taken him off of that creepy time still yet. So currently he's asleep...in a wrinkle in time. I don't know what to do
Other than those "random events", Nemo is *already* full on discipline, and I haven't unpaused the rest of the gang. I don't want to unpause Mimitchi, because my birthday is in a week, and I don't have time to raise him again, and I want him to be around
Soo...here are my stats:
Blue P2
Mimitchi, 19 yrs.
Blue bubbles Ocean
Nemo the Kuragetchi, 1 yr.
Purple Connexion 2
Regal the Batafuratchi, 5 yrs.
Clear black V3
Kura the Hanatchi, 5 yrs.
(no image)
Ashe the Pukatchi, 7 yrs.
Current occupation: Teacher?...lvl 1
Clear Digimon V2
Angemon, 99 yrs.
And here's a picture of me, confused about what to do with my new situation...

Yay! Another picture of someone with their tama! And personally, I think short hair suits you... looks very pretty
Loving the logs so far, as well as the tamagotchi art. I think I may emboss mine with rhinestones and designs like that once I get paid and I can go to A.C Moore for the little shinies and some crazy glue. Of course, I did that a couple of times to my phone and got bored of it fairly quickly (within... 2 weeks? very short attention span. I got my nails done about 4 days ago, and I just took all the color off and changed them already. chances are I'll change them within the week again if I have the time and willingness to make an effort again). I'll use different colors this time instead of boring clear... Yep!
It must be so great to have a Hanatchi. I've been trying for eons on my V1s in vain.... Good luck with everything!
Speaking of art... what type of paint did you use on your tamas? If you did that, I assume that you probably wouldn't stand for something that would feel rough and scratch off quickly. I'm very intrigued

Neil Gaiman Addresses the University of the Arts:
I hope you'll make mistakes. If you're making mistakes, it means you're out there doing something. And the mistakes in themselves can be useful. I once misspelled Caroline, in a letter, transposing the A and the O, and I thought, "Coraline looks like a real name…"
…the rules, the assumptions, the now-we're supposed to's of how you get your work seen, and what you do then, are breaking down. The gatekeepers are leaving their gates. You can be as creative as you need to be to get your work seen. YouTube and the web (and whatever comes after YouTube and the web) can give you more people watching than television ever did. The old rules are crumbling and nobody knows what the new rules are.
So make up your own rules.
Transcript of his speech here.
An incredible address with wit, humor, and wisdom, Gaiman doesn't lead you on. He even explains how he got his first job by lying. Make no mistake, whatever career you are interested in, some of this insight applies.

working perfectlyPros: all attached components work perfect without drops, timeouts, skips, or delays. no additional power needed. nice and small for only $3.99 and free shipping, arrived in two days with UPS Cons: none Other Thoughts: w 8 x64. have a keyboard, wireless mouse, webcam, and tv tuner plugged into this unit and all work perfect. Did you find this review helpful? |
Pros: It worked for about an hour. Cons: It shorted where the cord and the hub connect within first usage. No foul play and no miss use. Other Thoughts: Didnt want to waste the time going through return procedures. Manufacturer Response: Did you find this review helpful? |
Pros: None Cons: Can't connect to various kinds of wireless devices. Other Thoughts: Don't purchase this product if you are trying to connect wireless products to it. Manufacturer Response: Did you find this review helpful? |
ExcelentPros: Excelent size, finish. Its cheap without the cheap appearance Cons: Maybe the cable in black would look better Did you find this review helpful? |
Great item, a few minor issues thoughPros: Small, compact, simple, price Cons: could use a little more room between ports Other Thoughts: I bought this to sit on my desk, I ran a usb extension cable from my machine up to it. It works very well, although I had some trouble plugging in a USB stick into a port with something else next to it, so had to rearrange the plugs and use it on the end one. I wish the male connector had a little longer cable, but if it did it wouldn't be so compact. This would be ideal for travel and works great. No drivers or anything silly like that on Linux. Great price, quick shipping, etc etc that you expect from Newegg. Did you find this review helpful? |
Did not workPros: none Cons: CHEAP, don't waste your time. Did not work for most of my devices -- even the simple ones like my keyboard. My wireless USB mouse it did work with and supplied power (which was odd since a simple keyboard wouldn't work). I have about 10 devices and most of them would NOT work with the hub, but are just fine when plugged directly into the computer/motherboard. Manufacturer Response: Did you find this review helpful? |
Warranty is worthlessPros: It was a fine hub while it worked. Cons: I pulled the hub off the shelf to use it one day just to find that it had completely stopped working. I contacted IOGEAR support as it was under warranty for an RMA, but that is pointless as Manufacturer Response: 1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? |
Pros: Works well, small form factor, very well priced. Cons: Short, right angle connector can be a nuisance, but does not detract from functionality and is useful in some circumstances. Did you find this review helpful? |
TerriblePros: Cheap, looks nice Cons: With any movement of cables connection is lost. Makes using on a laptop impossible. Useless Other Thoughts: only use I see it being used for is for flash drives, but even then unless its kept completely still, connection will be lost Manufacturer Response: Did you find this review helpful? |
UGGG!Pros: When it worked it was fine Cons: Bought this on 9/7/12. Today, 1/10/13, in the midst of doing a number of things requiring ALL FOUR ports, the darn thing died. The little green light is on but all that means is that it's on, not working. I am SO MAD. True, this isn't the most hi-end hub to be had, but come on, not even 4 months out and it's history.

"I am preparing like a school boy who has all his exams" said Jean Alesi about his perparations for the Indy 500 2012 in a interview with L'Equipe-TV:
in French
So an F1 vet who has nothing to prove, is getting it back together because some fire inside tells him he needs to race Indy before its all too late. That there is just awesome. Alesi has my respect.
"Beauty is in the eye of the Beer-holder."

Better not hang around Dario, by the time he got done talking to Scott Speed, Speed was getting outpaced by a Dutchman that had never seen the track.
You cannot wrangle chaos. You can only try to plan for it.
Does he know what bumped means? If not, he better learn.
But he's another foreigner that no one cares about and he doesn't understand what Indy means
Sarcasm if you can't tell
I'd rather have 10% of the world interested in the ICS than 50% of US that NASCAR currently has
Interesting story line and if he does attempt to make the field, the story can only be positive for IndyCar.
Jean Alesi: [has Ricky in an arm lock] I will let you go, Marco. But first, I want you to say..."I... love... crepes.
Michael Andretti: Don't you say it, Marco. These colors don't run.
Marco Andretti: I'm not gonna say it.
Michael Andretti: Good.
Marco Andretti: Hey, look, Frenchy, I thought about it. So why don't you go ahead and break my arm?
Jean Alesi: I do not want to break your arm, Monsieur Marco, but I am a man of my word.
Marco Andretti: Here's the deal. He's not gonna break it because I'm gonna slip out of it right now. Houdini!
[he tries unsuccessfully to get free]
Jean Alesi: Whoa! Get down, you little pancake.
Marco Andretti: Someone might as well get me a beer while I'm down here.
Jean Alesi: But you have forced me to do this. You are now mocking me and making me look ridiculous. Just say, "I love crepes."
Michael Andretti: You know, just to put this in there, I had a whole mess of crepes this morning. They're just like pancakes, maybe even better.
Marco Andretti: Wait, are they the really thin pancakes?
Michael Andretti: Yeah.
Jean Alesi: Yes they are. They are the really thin pancakes. It's just a French word for them.
Marco Andretti: Oh, my god, I love those.
Michael Andretti: Put any syrups you want on them. I'm just saying, think about it.
Marco Andretti: They come with cheese sometimes?
Jean Alesi: Yes, of course, a fromage-crepe.
Marco Andretti: Well, why didn't someone yell that right-right away?
Jean Alesi: Do you know what's in the crepe suzette?
Marco Andretti: Oh, I love the crepe suzette.
Jean Alesi: With the sugar and lemon juice...
Marco Andretti: Yeah, the sugar and the lemon juice. Sure.
Jean Alesi: Grand Marnier.
Marco Andretti: I wo - I wish I could crawl into one of those right now. I'd eat my way out from the inside.
Good for him. If he tries and fails, at least he tried.
He's had a long career, and this could be a nice endcap to it. If he feels the competitive fire to try, I think that's awesome.

Yeah, yeah...that's all well and good & everything. Sure, Alesi drove with a passion rarely seen in this day and age but, like I posted in another thread, his wife is at least as capable of putting butts in seats at Indy next May!!
"IRL is better at everything except selling themselves." -- Jennifer Floyd Engel, ESPN/103.3 FM
I could be wrong but I just dont see how Alesi is going to do any good in the 500. If there's a lot of bumping, he's not making the race. The guy is old and hasnt been in a car in years. I dont see it. And Lawguy, Im not going to put that evil on Alesi, Ricky Bobby.
So true So true. A lot of drivers just dont understand what it takes to run aroung INDY. They think it is easy but Uh Oh Speghitti Ohhhhhsssss,.,, That being said. I hope he makes the show and gets to enjoy the feeling of being in the greatest spectacle in racing. Go getem openwheelers.
For some reason Alesi has always reminded me of Jochen Rindt. Driving with pure passion, fighting the fight for the sake of the fight. It will be fun to watch, wish him the best. Guess I'm just showing my age.
Love Alesi. Great seeing him have a go. Wish him luck and hope he gets into the field. Whatever happens, it will be entertaining.
à Indianapolis, Alesi doit passer le test de qualification, ce sera son premier grand défi
Alesi n'a pas de course sur ovale en carrière
in Indianapolis, Alesi must pass qualification test, this will be his first big challenge
Alesi did not race on oval in his career
Sorry for my english
My friend BING Translat
I admire that fact that at his age, he apparently, still has the fire and passion to race. Additiionally, I admire his accomplishments in F1.
That being said, I have little reason to believe he'll have any success at the Indy 500, and I can't say his presence there has me any more excited to watch this year than in years passed. Good luck to him though.
I'm not sure i will succeed in qualify.
But i respect is choice. Jean is a competitor. He wants new challenge.
In Cassoulet we trust
But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security
I would have studied harder as a lad if I had known that was all it took.

Jean could succeed to qualify at Indy in my opinion, he has one week to learn the track, the car so he could be fine, I really thing it will depend on the team he's driving for, even with the new "more difficult to drive" DW12, if the team can't set the car right, the driver can't do anything.
He finished second in the Le Mans Series last year in a Ferrari F430 so he hasn't been in hibernation since he left F1. He ran in the Speedcar Series in 2008 and 2009 winning five times and spent five years in the DTM with four wins to his name. It's not the same as running at Indy, of course, but 2011 was the first year since the early eighties that he hasn't raced full season.
The body is ok. He is training everyday.
The most difficult will be the track.

NORTH ADAMS, Mass. — Tim Cahill wants people to know what he stands for — even if he has to tell one person at a time. The gubernatorial hopeful was hammered earlier this week with an all-out attack on his record as state treasurer and Quincy city councilor by the Republican Governors Association on behalf of GOP opponent Charles D. Baker Jr., former CEO of Harvard Pilgrim Health. "It's a gross distortion of my record," said Cahill on Friday morning during an interview with "Charlie in the Morning" host Charles Schneitzlen at WJJW at Massachusetts College of Liberal Arts.

Two of the state's top elected officials — who also happen to be in contention for governor — will be speaking at the Massachusetts Mayors Association annual spring conference on Friday at Cranwell Resort in Lenox. Gov. Deval Patrick and state Treasurer Timothy Cahill's separate talks will be closed to the press but we're guessing the Great Recession that's created historic deficits for towns and cities across the commonwealth will be the No. 1 topic. Patrick, a Democrat, and Cahill, who was a Democrat and is now running as an independent, will likely both be speaking to their strategies for increasing jobs and revenues as well as commenting on issues relative to their

State Treasurer Tim Cahill stopped to speak with our media partner Berkshire News Network on Monday, March 29. Cahill is stumping for governor under the independent label rather than under the Democratic Party banner. He visited Pittsfield on Monday and took a tour of Soldier On, which constructing housing for veterans. Cahill said he decided to run as an independent because he wanted to escape the labels of both the Democratic and Republican parties. He will stand a better chance of getting things done as an independent than either party can do on its own. He's going after the 51 percent of voters who are independent; the same ones Republican Scott Brown went after in his

Best Airline Australia Pacific
Best Airline Staff Service Australia Pacific
Virgin Australia, in partnership with Melbourne Airport, has commenced a significant refurbishment of the Terminal 3 (T3) domestic terminal space.
The refurbishments will significantly enhance the travel experience for domestic passengers at Melbourne, bringing terminal facilities into line with the airline's new brand positioning and its fresh, contemporary, new look and feel.
Virgin Australia Chief Operating Officer Sean Donohue said the refurbishment is the latest in a series of initiatives in the past year which underscore the significance of the Victorian capital to the airline's operations, including:
"Melbourne is one of our busiest domestic airports and we serve over seven million guests every year - more than 19,000 every single day," Mr Donohue said.
"In addition to this program of works, we are also on track to introduce a Premium Valet service at Melbourne Airport, later this year."
Melbourne Airport CEO, Mr Chris Woodruff, said the T3 refurbishment is part of Melbourne Airport's investment of more than $1 billion on infrastructure upgrades over the next five years.
"We are pleased to be working closely with Virgin Australia on this project to deliver a better experience for our passengers," Mr Woodruff said.
"All flights will continue to operate normally from T3 during the refurbishment, and we'll be working closely with Virgin Australia and our other airline customers to minimise inconvenience for passengers while the work is being carried out."
"When the refurbishment is complete by the end of the year, passengers can look forward to a more contemporary and spacious terminal area," Mr Woodruff said.

Stay where you are and keep writing!!!!!!!!!!! You have abandoned your Mike Royko roots!
Now we won't have to read your diatribe on Hingham anymore I trust. The sweaty makes good. Congratulations on the promotion.
You viewed a set of facts about a particular issue and then clearly stated your opinion in exceptionally well written English. I also enjoyed your visits as a commentator and guest fill-in on Jim and Margery and appearances on Greater Boston - keep going there. In my opinion, your columns could be used for not only journalism classes but for English classes from the middle school through the high school based on the fact of your published columns. Merry Christmas, Happy New Year, Good Health, Good Luck as Editor and Thanks.
This comment has been removed.
Parting is such sweet sorrow, Brian, but in your case, the wonderful news is that we don't have to say good-bye; plus, the Globe is in your capable hands, and that means the Metro column will prevail, you'll make sure of that. Thanks for one final "feel good" story today, we need it now more than ever. Best wishes always.
This comment has been removed.
I didn't always agree with your columns, but I liked more of them than I disliked. You did your job by often challenging me, rather than simply reinforcing what I already believed.
The first thing I do every morning is go downstairs to get my newspaper. Please keep this one going. The Economist says the bottom has essentially been reached and will be leveling out. I hope they're right.
Congratulations, Brian, and good luck. I'm one of those denizens of your favorite 'uptight suburb,' and am going to miss your column. You've brought color and edginess to your little corner of the paper, something that I wish more of your colleagues would embrace (Shaughnessy can disregard), and I've enjoyed it for years. Also glad to be part of a town that's given you so much pleasure to write about.
Congratulations Brian! Will you be moving to Hingham now? (just kidding) I remember when the late Jess Cain lived there when it was a little more down to earth, but changing. It went seriously nouveau riche over the last twenty-five years or so. I remember when "old money" types seemed to compete as to who was the most understated. Some of them could nearly pass for being homeless when acually they had just spent a day sailing.

This branch of Habitat for Humanity has chosen to charge volunteers for the privilege of helping out.
When the Nonprofiteer pointed out that volunteers give more readily to the agencies they serve than non-volunteers, she wasn't advocating admission fees. Volunteers may have paid to paint Tom Sawyer's fence, but Twain's point was that they were stupid. Your volunteers aren't.
Even if mandatory "contributions" (oxymoron watch!) weren't offensive in suggesting that volunteers' time has less than no value, they're practically the definition of penny-wise and pound-foolish: people will pay what you require (or not) and then regard their giving to the agency as being done for the year.
Or forever. Please stop this idea before it kills again.

In honor of Veterans Day, I am offering no lender fees on all VA loan applications now through the end of November. That is a savings of $859! If you are in the market to buy, there's never been a better time to take advantage of your VA benefit. If you currently have a VA loan, there's never been a better time to take advantage of record low rates. The VA Interest Rate Reduction Loan (IRRRL) is a streamlined refinance with very little paperwork, no appraisal, lower fees and quick process. VA also offers a Energy Efficient Mortgage (EEM) too! If you are concerned about qualifying or just have questions, dont hesitate to give me a call or send me an email.
It would be my pleasure to serve you.
God Bless.

In What Counts, Prof. Jack Quarter and his colleagues at the University of Toronto have made an important and practical contribution to helping nonprofits rectify this situation. The subject of this compact and very readable book is "social accounting", defined as "a systematic analysis of the effects of an organization on its communities of interest or stakeholders, with stakeholder input as part of the data that are analyzed for the accounting statement". As the authors point out, conventional accounting statements are internally focused reports that emphasize financial dimensions of the organization and market-based measures. By contrast, the methodology of social accounting that is developed in this book, casts a wider net, giving a fuller picture of the net contributions, resource usage, liabilities and assets, of an organization. As the authors argue, such an approach is built on work in the corporate sector and applies in principle to all kinds of organizations. However, it is especially relevant to nonprofit organizations, whose missions are explicitly social, which engage multiple important stakeholder groups, and which productively employ large quantities of volunteer effort. The net effect is that social accounting potentially provides a much fuller, more accurate, and very likely a more positive picture of the social and economic contributions that nonprofit organizations make to society.
The authors are realistic in their approach and they do not minimize the challenges to applying the framework of social accounting, including the problems of measuring inputs and impacts that have no readily observable market value, and institutional resistance to deviating from the conventional reports and accounting statements that nonprofits are currently required to prepare. However, the book addresses these issues in very straightforward and practical ways. One chapter of the book, for example, is devoted to a "social accounting toolkit" with templates and survey instruments designed to facilitate collection of the kinds of data nonprofits will need to prepare social accounting statements. As important, the social accounting frameworks offered in this book are developed as extensions of conventional accounting statements, so that nonprofits can build on what they already do, and so that they can see directly how social accounting provides a better picture of their operations.
The book offers four different frameworks that nonprofits can use to display their accounts. The first is the Socio-Economic Impact Statement, which documents the flow of monetary and social resources to and from key stakeholder groups. It is directly comparable to a conventional income statement or Statement of Operations except that it breaks flows of resources down by key groups and sub-sectors, and it includes estimates of volunteer and donor contributions, and value of services received. The second is the Socio-Economic Resource Statement, which is an adaptation of a conventional Balance Sheet, except that it includes estimates of human and social capital, in addition to financial assets. The third is the Expanded Value-added Statement which is an adaptation of a conventional value-added statement but includes social as well as financial value-added. A Community Social Return on Investment Model is also presented which builds on input/output logic of conventional financial accounting. The authors offer these frameworks as alternative and complementary ways in which a nonprofit organization can consider doing its social accounting.
So how might all this actually help a nonprofit organization in its accounting and accountability challenges? The (actual) examples documented in this book make a pretty good case for social accounting. For instance, a conventional Statement of Activities for a Junior Achievement program shows only that it incurred a net financial loss of approximately $3000 in one year, while its Socio-Economic Impact Statement demonstrated that it contributed almost $1 million in value of services to the local public school system. For that same organization, a conventional Balance Sheet showed a net liability of some $90,000 while the Socio-Economic Resource Statement documented net human and social capital assets of almost $600,000. Similar perspectives are offered in other examples. The Expanded Value-added statements for various organizations show that estimates of the ratios of value-added to purchases can increase significantly when financial value added is supplemented by social value added.
There is no denying that conventional accounting measures remain important to nonprofits, which of course must continue to ensure their financial viability in the marketplace. However, the beauty of expanding these statements to include measures of social resources and contributions is that they provide a fuller picture of nonprofits' value to society and to key stakeholder groups. This in turn should offer a fairer way to hold them accountable, as well as provide a stronger case for their financial support.

Oceania Sevens - Australia and New Zealand into the Final and off to Dubai
Australia and New Zealand will contest the 2008 Oceania Sevens Women's final and in doing so have booked their places in the IRB Rugby World Cup Sevens 2009 in Dubai.
Early pressure from Manu Sina had Australia scrambling in the first semi final - Samoan defence was resolute cramping the dangerous Australian speedsters.
Australia's Debby Hodgkinson crossed for the first try of the game after some sustained pressure to give Australia a 5-0 lead mid-way through the first half.
Ruan Sims crossed for Australia's second try a short time later to give Australia a 10-0 lead at half time. Australia enjoyed the bulk of possession in the first half but the Samoan defence was strong - with coach Dicky Tafua deciding that cramping the Australians space was the best way to choke their scoring opportunities.
The Manu Sina were down to 6 when Amanda Cahill was sin binned early in the second half for a high tackle and from that point on, the Australians turned the screws on their opponents with tries to Ruan Sims, Amanda Judd and finally Selena Tranter to give Australia a deserved 29-0 victory.
New Zealand got off to the best possible start in the second Semi Final courtesy of a brilliant individual try by Victoria Grant in the opening minute to give the kiwis an early 7-0 lead.
Melissa Jane Ruscoe crossed soon afterwards as New Zealand jumped to a 14-0 lead.
Victoria Grant was having a day out as she scored yet another brilliant try from within her own half to give her team a 21-0 lead.
The Fijiana sprung to action shortly afterwards, Iva Vunikura finishing off a brilliant team try to keep them within the hunt at half time - New Zealand leading 21-5.
Huriana Manuel ended Fiji's hopes of qualifying for the final when she crossed mid-way through the second half to give New Zealand an insurmountable 28-5 lead.
Fiji weren't ready to give up though and Tavaita Rowati responded immediately with a try of her own. New Zealand 28, Fiji 10.
Hannah Porter scored on fulltime to give New Zealand a convincing 35-10 victory and a place in the final against Australia.

Library Science
Mark is a member of The Motley Fool Blog Network -- entries represent the personal opinion of the blogger and are not formally edited.
We are in the midst of a fairly significant change in the way books, newspapers, magazines and related information are consumed. From the invention of the printing press by Gutenberg in 1440 until the 1990's information was primarily available in printed format. Gutenberg was chosen as the most important person of the last millennium by more than one organization. Prior to the printing press information was transmitted verbally or painstakingly written by hand. A book could cost as much as a small house. Only the wealthy could read. Today a book is less than 1/10,000 of the cost of a typical home in the U.S.
Now information can be downloaded digitally onto several types of devices and read on a screen instead of on paper. Digital or e-books now comprise about 6.2% of the overall market in the U.S. You can access a book in a fraction of the time it takes to get in your car and drive to the local library or book store. One of the first commercially available e-readers was the Data Discman, released by Sony Corp. (NYSE: SNE) in 1992. Amazon (NASDAQ: AMZN) released the first version of their e-reader, Kindle®, in November 2007.
Has this transformation changed the fortunes of any of the key players and stakeholders? Will book stores disappear? Has library usage changed?
The table below contains market share information published in 2010 for the top e-reader devices. Amazon dominated with a 41.5% market share with Pandigital a distant second and Barnes and Noble (NYSE: BKS) close behind in 3rd, although it sells only in the U.S. Apple (NASDAQ: AAPL) introduced the iPad tablet earlier that year and it can be considered as an e-reader device although it is not officially included in the data below.
Rank | Vendor | 3Q10 Shipments (M) | Market Share (%) |
1 | Amazon | 1.14 | 41.5% |
2 | Pandigital | 0.44 | 16.1% |
3 | Barnes and Noble | 0.42 | 15.4% |
4 | Sony | 0.23 | 8.4% |
4 | Hanvon | 0.23 | 8.2% |
6 | Others | 0.29 | 10.4% |
Amazon doesn't break out sales or profit figures on e-readers alone. However, information gleaned from various earnings announcements over the last few years indicate that "millions of e-reader devices have been sold" and it has "contributed significantly to improved revenues and profits." The stock price has soared 161% since November 2007. According to some analysts e-readers will remain a major growth platform for Amazon going forward and will continue to contribute to their overall performance. Amazon, of course, will also continue to benefit from sales of printed material though their signature on-line store. The e-readers just compliment their strength.
Apple may be attempting to improve their standing in the overall digital download arena with the likely introduction of the iPad Mini, rumored to be available later this year. However, the price tag will probably be higher than that of the Kindle and similar devices which could somewhat dampen enthusiasm. A positive for Apple is that the Mini, as was the case for the regular versions, has many more uses than just being an e-reader. It is expected that most of the worldwide growth in the e-reader/tablet area will be in the 7" to 9" screen size range. Apple should be well positioned to take advantage of that.
Barnes and Noble introduced their signature e-reader, the NOOK®, in November 2009. For their fiscal fourth quarter which ended April 28, revenue in the "Nook" space, a category that includes both sales of devices and digital books, fell 11% to $164 million, from $183 million a year earlier. The reduction was based in part on much tougher competition than expected. Overall losses at Barnes and Noble totaled $57.7 million, slightly lower than the previous year. Clearly, entry into the e-reader space is not a growth area so far.
Perhaps a casualty of the e-reader/tablet introduction is Borders. The company declared bankruptcy and then ceased operation in July 2011 after suffering losses for many years. Hundreds of stores were closed and many people lost their jobs. Prior to liquidation, Borders had released a minimalist e-reader device. Obviously it didn't save the company.
There is much debate about the effect of e-readers/tablets on libraries. There is no definitive evidence that digital downloads have affected library usage, either positively or negatively, to a significant degree. One interesting fact that I came across during research for this article is that there are more libraries (more than 16,000) in the U.S. than McDonald's restaurants. They aren't going to go away anytime soon. However, in the face of potential "competition" from e-readers/tablets, libraries may need to innovate and expand their efforts in the digital download area to keep generating traffic. Companies like Overdrive provide download services to more than 15,000 libraries, schools and colleges worldwide and has about 650,000 digital titles available. 3M (NYSE: MMM) is considering expansion of their digital download business in the library space.
So while e-readers have altered the way some information is consumed and has had a positive effect on Amazon, the potential for impact on Apple and 3M and probably a negative effect on Barnes and Noble and Borders it probably won't damatically affect the way people have read books over the last 572 years. People will still go to the library to get that latest book.
Save a library, read a book.

The Ravens travel to Kansas City this Sunday to take on the Chiefs. And as with any NFL road game, it will not be a walk in the park.
Baltimore is 3-0 at home and 0-1 on the road this season, with their lone loss coming in Philadelphia in week two. Although the Chiefs (1-3) have struggled thus far this season, Baltimore has lost six of its last 10 games on the road, including playoffs.
And it gets really loud at Arrowhead Stadium. So loud, Ravens quarterback Joe Flacco might get hoarse calling the signals.
"I remember in the playoffs, one play we were down on the goal line," center Matt Birk recalled. "Obviously, I'm pretty close to Joe before the snap and I could hardly hear him. You just feel the vibration of hfis voice, that's how loud it is."
Coach John Harbaugh agrees. "The times we've played there, it's been really loud," he said. "It's one of the great venues in the NFL. It's a beautiful setting, it's traditional and it's really, really red. Our guys will have to be ready for that.
"It's a work in progress. We're not claiming that we're the finished product with our no-huddle by any stretch. But crowd noise is a two-way street. If it's tough on our offense, it's tough on their defense. It's up to us to make it difficult on them."
While going 4-4 on the road during the regular season last year, Baltimore lost as favorites at Jacksonville and Seattle. Someone suggested to Harbaugh that this might be a trap game, and the coach would have nothing of it.
"They named the movie 'Any Given Sunday for a reason,'" he said, noting that the Chiefs out-gained San Diego in a 37-20 defeat Sunday.
"Their issue was real simple: turnovers," Harbaugh added. "So, if they clean that up, obviously they're capable of beating anybody. They were predicted in the preseason to be a playoff team, and they're still the same team. We'll be ready. We're not going to overlook them."
Ravens Tight End Dennis Pitta joined Gerry Sandusky Tuesday night for Ravens One on One. Pitta and the Ravens know it will be a battle Sunday.
But they also know it is a winnable game.
WBAL's coverage on Sunday begins at 10am.

I simply had to share.
I ask you to keep what you're feeling RIGHT NOW, in your mind. And follow me for five minutes. Trust me.
If you're like me, you are probably APPALLED!
I was absolutely LIVID. Flumexed. Flabergasted.
Just sit with it a moment.
The image is of a sitting American President.
I found this image being flashed around some Republican websites.
There have been many pictures like this – people fooling around with photoshop, now that it's just a click away.
You know the other pictures…Hitler, The Devil…etc, on both sides – Romney AND Obama.
But this one is shocking on several levels.
This is the President of the United States of America.
This is a Black Man.
Depicted as a slut.
This is a woman stripped of all dignity – hidden within an image so hateful of the colour and gender it portrays, it defies belief.
This is a man, degraded.
OK, breath.
Let the anger slip off you slowly.
Let it slide off your shoulders.
And look at it again.
It is funny.
It is hilarious!
I may be getting old – but this kind of image not only was not possible in my time, but was also, un-imaginable.
Given the sheer evil invested in it, I invite you to just take a look, and laugh.
Because it is funny.
Not because we are 'wrestling power back' by doing so.
The people wearing the intention behind the making and distribution of this image will have evil to deal with in their lives. That is a given.
But the world has moved so far in that grand 'ole 'Good Vs. Evil' battle that we're in, that given the depravity, I can only hope that I'm standing on the right side of it.
I mean really look at it.
The gait, the glamour of the keys in her hands.
It is so shockingly funny that I posted it on this page so that I remember it forever.
We are so manipulated today - I am so manipulated – by Materialism right now, that the photo is funny because – I think – the winner is actually the manner in which Obama is wearing his costume.
How skinny! How funky! How glamorous! This is a Hollywood starlet caught in the glare of Media spotlight – and I want it.
This is what I glamorise – when I lay awake at night, deep in the throes of a depression brought about by the thought that I will never be rich and famous and wanted.
After this photograph, I will never again agree that money can make you happy.
I won't even joke about it.
The corruption of my soul from the mere sight of this image has convinced me more concretely than ever, that I am a good man.
I am happy with my Alzheimic mother even as she forgets who I am.
I am happy with my sisters, drunk or not.
So my dreams have not yet arrived…
I am a happy man, and that is good enough for me.
Because I swear to God – I swear – that I do not want to be – that man who killed for money – who lived for money – who destroyed for money.
I swear that I will find something better to cry for, than not having been good enough
I laughed at this image because at least she wears it well -even Jesus would say so.
Already redeemed are those represented here – prostitutes and slaves.
Already redeemed here are the killers trading the image.
My laughter is a breeze that lifts her shoes, and steadies her gait, and attempts to defray, the shame in her depiction.
I am happy to battle this battle and laugh.
And should evil rip me to shreds and leave me naked,
I am happy to die a simple, clean, man.
words move

I think dragonfly wings are pretty awesome.
Reactions: |
It's just beautiful! Doesn't it look as if it is forged out of stained glass? Too perfect to be real, yet it is real.
Long ago and far away I took a class in the examination of myths and fairytales. One of the things that was discussed was that many myths about faeries, tiny winged beings flitting to and fro, may have been inspired by either hummingbirds, or dragonflies.
It's easy to believe, isn't it? It's easy to believe in creatures from fairytales when you see something that impossibly perfect and lovely.
Thanks for sharing! Congratulations on your post of the week mention over at Hilary's blog.

Asian Makeup: How to Combat Straight Eyelashes
Whether you are Asian, Eastern European, or simply have lashes that refuse to curl -- these tips will change your life
Tip 7: And make sure it's waterproof The most common complaint among women with straight lashes is how mascara smears onto their lower eyelids. The solution? Wear waterproof. "If it's smearing you're using the wrong [mascara]. You just have to wear waterproof," says Babaian. Waterproof formulas are lighter and have a drier consistency, so the lashes freeze in the curl quicker, which is key in maintaining the curl. Babaian recommends Cle De Peau Beaute THE Mascara, $50, but for a cheaper alternative, try Maybelline New York Lash Discovery Mini-Brush Waterproof Mascara in Very Black, $5.99, which was also one of our reader's 12 best drugstore mascaras.

Exceptional Treehouses
By Alain Laurens, Jacques Delacroix, and Daniel Dufour
No longer the domain of the backyard, treehouses have grown up and gone Architectural Digest. In lush photographs, author Alain Laurens documents a number of exquisitely-designed treehouses—liveable homes that are built on top of, as well as in and around trees and groves—from an international cast of green architects. Laurens shows that it is possible to live high in the trees with minimal impact but with maximal design and comfort.
