Five Factors of Success
Accountability run a muck
Who are you accountable to? Accountability is one of the foundation stones of success. When one rises through the ranks of a company they are accountable to their direct management. The higher you go up the ladder, you become more and more accountable to the customer. At every level we are accountable to the customer, but of all that you are accountable to, which is most important? In my life I am accountable to my wife and my son over all else. As I work towards success, however, they are not undermining and plotting against it. Instead they support and encourage and so momentum toward the goal happens.
In my Action coaching programs I often run into people with big plans and dreams of a successful future. They dream of having the perfect body, the best relationships, financial security, a clear mind, and a connection to something larger then themselves. They strive for a purpose driven, vibrant life. All of these people have the ability to achieve all of their dreams. Each has the power to create the life of their desires. The area that always seems to be the tripping point is the next step: Action.

With My Luck..... ~ by John C. Davis
"Man is made by his belief. As he believes, so he is." ~Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
I am amazed how often I hear the words "with my luck." Our general society has a several standard phrases that we all tend to take for granted, the aforementioned being the poster child. Statements like "with my luck" have an underlying belief that is the driving force of what is being created in the person's life. As these words are uttered, we often no longer even look at the meaning behind them. When someone says it, they usually are not thinking the "luck" is good. In fact the implied tone that comes with the phrase says quite the opposite. The overwhelming implication is "poor me."
I bet that title got your attention.
Perhaps you are quite shocked and wondering if I used to be a stripper in my early days. Sorry to disappoint you, but I am speaking in metaphors. By the way, if any of the guys out there were disappointed by that metaphor part – I'll send you a little wink for even thinking this 53-year old gal still has it going on.
Grand Slam Healing ~ by Sandi Evans
The thing about the chaos of healing is how tricky it is. It masquerades as real stuff. I think of myself as pretty savvy and sophisticated when it comes to the crisis of "healing", "growing", learning", whatever word you want to use to describe that really uncomfortable and painful jump into the unknown of being a better person. So I was pretty surprised when after four days of looking at the facts and considering all aspects ….."I got nuthin". "Maybe this time all the ground clutter is real?!" That aforementioned thought led me to reconsider some of my core beliefs. Maybe I needed to change some things…..
Take for a moment all the prophecy and predictions off the table. This is not a debate as to whether it will happen or not. Instead, just consider this one question.
"If ONLY 10% of the world's population believe that 12/21/2012 spells disaster, what would happen?"

Hormone therapy is usually given in addition to another treatment. It's given only if tests show that your cancer depends on certain hormones to grow. When you get it depends on the stage of your cancer. Here's a list of the stages of cancer that can be treated with hormones and when it would be given:
As prevention, to lower your chance of developing breast cancer if you have lobular carcinoma in situ (LCIS) or are otherwise at high risk. This may be the case even if you were treated successfully for breast cancer years before hormone therapy was available.
As neoadjuvant therapy, meaning before surgery, radiation, or chemotherapy, to shrink the tumor. May be done for Stage II breast cancer that involves a large tumor.
As an adjuvant therapy, meaning after another type of treatment, if you have ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) or Stage I, II, or III breast cancer, and to help keep the cancer from returning after treatment.
To slow down the spread of metastatic (Stage IV) breast cancer and recurrent breast cancer (cancer that comes back after treatment).
You should discuss all your options, as well as the benefits and risks, with your doctor.

European Energy Community
The Energy Community (also referred in the past as Energy Community of South East Europe (ECSEE) and European Energy Community (EEC)) is a community established between the European Union (EU) and a number of third countries to extend the EU internal energy market to Southeast Europe and beyond. With their signatures, the Contracting Parties commit themselves to implement the relevant EU acquis communautaire, to develop an adequate regulatory framework and to liberalise their energy markets in line with the acquis under the Treaty. The Treaty establishing the Energy Community was signed in Athens, Greece, on 25 October 2005, and entered into force on 1 July 2006.

The Energy Community aims at establishing a common regulatory framework for energy markets in contracting parties by extending the acquis communautaire of the European Union to the territories of participating countries. It covers the relevant fields of energy, environment, and competition of the EU legislation. After entry into force, the treaty acquis has been extended on several occasion.[1] It now also includes legislation in relation to security of supply, energy efficiency, oil, renewable energy and statistics. In line with the update at the EU level, the Energy Community tranposes and implements the EU's Third Energy Package since September 2011.
Timetable for implementation of the treaty is the following:
- in twelve months (by 1 July 2007) implement the two EU energy market directives and the regulation on cross-border network access.
- from 1 January 2008 liberalisation of the market for all non-household customers.
- by 31 December 2011 reduction in the sulphur content of certain liquid fuels.
- from 1 January 2015 liberalisation of the market for all customers.
- by 31 December 2017 limitation of emissions of certain pollutants into the air from large combustion plants
- by 30 June 2013 complete National Renewable Energy Action Plans, by 1 January 2014 transpose the Renewables Directive and to have thereby binding share of renewable energy as part of the overall consumption in 2020.[citation needed]
- by 1 January 2023 to maintain minimum stocks of crude oil and/or petroleum products.
The roots of the Energy Community Treaty go back the South-East Europe Regional Energy Market for electricity and natural gas formed originally in the framework of the Stability Pact for South Eastern Europe through the Athens Memorandum. To this end, the establishment of the Energy Community represents a very important political step in a key-economic sector before the accession of the SEE countries to the EU.[2] The institutional setting of the Energy Community shows great parallels to the structures of the European Union. It was in the negotiations for this treaty that the Commission "reproduced" the institutions that were created by the founding fathers of the European Communities and reproduced its own institutions outside its borders.[3] On the occasion of the signing of the Treaty, the European Commission stated that the Energy Community Treaty is consciously modelled on the European Steel and Coal Community that was the genesis for the European Union.[4]
Athens Memorandum[edit]
The 'Athens Memorandum' refers to the memorandum of understanding of 2002[5] and its revision of 2003, signed in Athens. It was proposed by the European Union and it outlined the principles and the institutional necessities for regional electricity market development in South East Europe. Following intense discussions, an agreement was reached at the first South East Europe Electricity Regulation Forum in June 2002. The signing of the memorandum took place in November 2002 by Albania, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Bulgaria, Croatia, Greece, the Republic of Macedonia, Romania, Serbia and Montenegro, and Turkey.
The 2003 revision added natural gas to the scope of work. Under the Athens Memorandum a South-East Europe Regional Energy Market (SEEREM) was envisioned, to form part of the EU's internal energy market. The Athens Memorandum also set up a number of institutions, which collectively are known as the 'Athens Process'. In 2004, the Athens Forum meeting decided to name the process 'Energy Community'; at the same time the location of future institutions was agreed.
Energy Community Treaty[edit]
In May 2004, the European Union opened negotiations with the countries of the south-eastern European region to conclude a legal agreement. The negotiations took place between the European Community on one side, and Albania, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Bulgaria, Croatia, Republic of Macedonia, Republic of Montenegro, Serbia, Romania, Turkey and UNMIK on behalf of Kosovo on the other side. The treaty establishing the Energy Community was signed in Athens, Greece, on 25 October 2005 and entered into force on 1 July 2006. Signature of the treaty has been approved by the European Parliament on 29 May 2006.
Parties, participants and observers[edit]
Parties to the Energy Community Treaty are the European Union and eight contracting parties (date of ratification):
After having obtained the observer status, Moldova, Ukraine formally expressed their interest in full membership. Mandated by the Ministerial Council, the European Commission had the first round of formal negotiations with Moldova and Ukraine in late 2008. After three negotiation rounds, the technical negotiations with Moldova and Ukraine on full membership were concluded in 2009. The Ministerial Council, however, made the membership conditional on legislative amendments. In concrete, it requested both countries to revise their gas laws and to align them with the EU's Gas Directive 2003/55/EC.[8] Whilst Moldova became a full fledged member as of 1 May 2010, Ukraine officially acceded the Energy Community on 1 February 2011.
Pursuant to the treaty, any EU member state may obtain the status of a participant. In doing so, the EU member state has the right to attend the Ministerial Council, the Permanent High Level Group, the Regulatory Board and the fora and participate in the discussions in these bodies. This privilege is used by 17 EU member states, namely
Any other neighbouring third country can obtain an observer status upon approval of a reasoned request by the Ministerial Council. A separate Procedural Act regulates the rights and obligations of the observers to the Treaty.[10] The observers to the treaty are:
The main institutions established by the treaty are:
- Ministerial Council
- Permanent High Level Group
- Energy Community Regulatory Board (ECRB)
- Fora
- Secretariat
Ministerial Council[edit]
The Ministerial Council is the principal decision-making institution of the Energy Community. It takes the key policy decisions and adopts the Energy Community's rules and procedures. The Ministerial Council is composed of one representative from each Contracting Party and of two representatives from the European Community.
Following a decision in December 2009, the Ministerial Council meets once a year. Moreover, the Presidency of the Council is held in turn by each contracting party for a term of 12 months. For the period of 1 January to 31 December 2012, Montenegro holds the presidency in office and chairs the key institutional meetings.
Permanent High Level Group[edit]
The Permanent High Level Group brings together senior officials from each Contracting Party and two representatives of the European Community. It ensures the continuity of and follow-up to the political meetings by the ministers and decides, in certain cases, on implementing measures.
Energy Community Regulatory Board[edit]
The Regulatory Board composes regulators from each contracting Party and officials from the European Commission. It advises the Ministerial Council and PHLG on details of statutory, technical and regulatory rules and makes recommendations in the case of cross-border disputes between regulators. The Regulatory Board meets in Athens. Its work is supported by four staff members of the Energy Community Secretariat.
The fora have the task to advise the Energy Community. Chaired by the European Commission, a forum brings together all interested stakeholders from the industry, regulators, industry representative groups and consumers. Their conclusions, agreed by consensus, will be addressed to the Permanent High Level Group.
The establishment of the fora reflects the process leading to the creation of the Energy Community. The Athens Electricity Forum, previously known as South East Europe Energy Regulation Forum, met for the first time in 2002. The terms governing the Gas Forum were established in 2006. In 2007, it was decided that the Gas Forum shall convene in Slovenia. In 2007 discussions on the possible establishment of a new Forum on social issues began to unfold. The first Social Forum took place in November 2008. At its Dec 2008 meeting, the Ministerial Council decided to implement certain provisions of the treaty on the oil sector and to establish the Oil Forum. The first Oil Forum convened in 2009 in Belgrade, Serbia.
The day-to-day activities of the Energy Community are administered by the Secretariat, in particular by regular review of each Contracting Party's fulfilment of its obligations under the treaty and by initiating treaty enforcement procedures. Based on its assessment, the Secretariat submits an annual implementation report to the Ministerial Council of the Energy Community. The Secretariat is also responsible for making sure that the Energy Community's budget – to which all Parties contribute – is correctly spent and accounted for. As of March 2012 the Secretariat consists of a staff of 22 originating from 13 different European states. The Secretariat has its seat in Vienna, Austria.
In October 2011, the Energy Community Secretariat celebrated its fifth anniversary in Vienna, Austria. In its press release, the European Commission stated that "Contracting Parties have been successful in creating a stable regulatory framework and aligning their rules to the European Union standards."[11] In addition to the legislative alignment, also the political dimension of the process is decisive. Reflecting the legal and political objectives of the treaty, the key achievements of the Energy Community include:
- Regional cooperation project – establishment of a Coordinated Auction Office Project Team Company by ten South East European electricity network operators (TSOs of Albania, Croatia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Macedonia, Greece, Montenegro, Romania, Slovenia, Kosovo and Turkey) in Podgorica, Montenegro in June 2012.[12]
- A new geographical scope – on the ground of the original area of operation in the Western Balkans, the accession of Moldova (April 2010) and Ukraine (February 2011) granted the Energy Community a new geographical definition.
- Continuous steps towards treaty implementation – the Secretariat has helped the Contracting Parties to draft numerous EU compliable pieces of national law, both primary and secondary legislation.
- Keeping abreast with the EU developments – extension of the treaty acquis to include core EU legislation on security of supply (2007), energy efficiency (2009) and 3rd energy internal market package (2011)[13]
In March 2011, the European Commission published its first assessment report on the Energy Community.[14] According to the Commission, "after four years of existence, the Energy Community has grown into a mature organisation, which provides a solid institutional framework for cooperation, mutual support and exchange of experiences and therefore serves as a model for regional cooperation on energy matters." Regarding the Energy Community in the context of external dimension of the EU energy policy, the Council of the European Union set the following priorities in November 2011:[15]
- encouraging full and timely implementation and enforcement of the acquis, as well as the removal of technical barriers, aiming at the creation of an Energy Community-wide energy market;
- extending the Energy Community Treaty beyond the year 2016;
- undertaking actions with the view of enlarging the Energy Community Treaty to neighbouring countries provided that they demonstrate both willingness and ability to implement and enforce relevant EU legislation;
- continuing cooperation with Turkey, aiming at integration of the country into the Energy Community;
- continuing the analysis of the functioning of the Energy Community Treaty as well as establishing an operational roadmap allowing the accelerated modernisation of energy sectors in Energy Community contracting parties, further enhancement of the Energy Community integration with the EU as well as adapting the decision-making and organisational structures of the Energy Community to future challenges.
The treaty has been criticised by the European Federation of Public Service Trade Unions as it lacks a social dimension.[16] The Energy Community acquis makes an explicit reference to public service obligations and customer protection. Whilst the Treaty may lack a legally binding acquis on social dialogue, the Contracting Parties have a legally binding obligation to foster social dimension within the process. In October 2007, the Parties signed the Memorandum of Understanding on Social Issues in the context of Energy Community.[17] The Memorandum recognises that economic development and social progress are mutually linked and should go hand in hand. It also spells out the importance and the necessity to involve social partners in the reform process. Ukraine and Moldova signed the Declaration of Memorandum of Understanding on Social Issues in October 2011.
Environmental organisations from south-eastern Europe criticised the process in December 2008 as they believed that the ECSEE contains insufficient safeguard mechanisms to ensure that the well-intentioned promotion of energy efficiency and renewable energy is not drowned out by the promotion of large and often environmentally harmful coal and hydropower plants.[18] The Energy Community Ministerial Council decided to establish a task force in energy efficiency in 2007. The Energy Community Energy Efficiency Task Force has been operational since January 2008. It now operates under its fourth mandate. In 2009 the ministers also adopted the core EU energy efficiency acquis.[19] In the area of renewable energy the discussion to adopt the "new" EU renewable energy directive started already in 2008. The Ministerial Council established a renewable energy task force in 2009. The ministers are expected to decide on the possible adoption of the renewable energy Directive at their next meeting in October 2012.

Foul-Weather Friend
Guest blogger Dani Klein Modisett: Does one mom's success mean another mom's failure? It sure seems that way.
When I was a kid I used to sing in nightclubs. Really. One of my favorite songs to sing was "Maybe This Time" from Cabaret. At 15, I would convincingly belt out the lyrics, "Everybody loves a winner, so nobody loved me..." And like the song says, I always assumed that success would bring lots of friends, however false. So you can imagine my surprise when recently, having gotten some acknowledgment in my career, I noticed several mom friends jumping ship on me.
I ran into a woman at the market I've known since before we had kids, named Angelina.
"No. It's just...you left that message and I didn't want to talk to you. All I am is a mom and you getting all this success makes me feel like being a mom isn't good enough."
"Really?" I said, surprised by this reaction, but glad she was honest. I took her lead.
"Must be tough being that jealous, it kind of limits your friendships."
Like this one, I thought. SEE YA!
Have I've stumbled upon a new breed of friend? "The Foul-Weather Friend?"
I'm sure if I called any of these women crying about my husband cheating on me, or whining about feeling enslaved by a joint checking account, or distraught over my son's refusal to eat anything green, they would "totally be there for me." But apparently finding a modicum of success outside the home is too threatening for some. No wonder there's such mudslinging between working moms and stay-at-home moms. Getting too close to the group you're not in makes you feel bad about yourself. Clearly, I'm going to have to cut things off with Angelina; it's really been bringing me down lately.
Dani Klein Modisett is the mom of two boys, and the creator/producer of Afterbirth...Stories You Won't Read in Parents Magazine.
I've had this experience, and it's devastating. You end up feeling betrayed, and wondering if you'll ever have a close friendship again.
In school, my best friend was always there for me, through all the misery and gloom. She would have relationships and I would always be happy for her, even if I didn't like one or two of them, because she was happy.
Finally when I met the man who was to become my husband (of 20 years now) and told my friends, they were all so bored, disdainful, even aggresive, especially my "best friend". I was never the sort to say "I met someone new and I'm in love", so it wasn't a case of crying wolf. It was the first time I ever felt truly and completely happy in my life, and nobody I cared about cared for my well-being. Were these the people I called my friends? It shakes your belief system to its very core, and for me it took many years to get over.
Even now it still hurts a bit when I think of it ~ can you tell? It's not fair that I had to lose everyone I considered a friend, all at once, especially my very best friend for so many years, and it's not fair that your own friends can't be bothered to be happy for you in your success, and share in your joy of making money doing what you enjoy.
Some people don't know how to converse without moaning, and Angelina probably felt she had nothing to say around you if you wouldn't join her in her dissatisfaction. One could almost feel sorry for her. Almost.
I wish you the best of luck, and better friends.
Jennifer, you NAILED it…and I wish you luck in finding better friends.
As for me, I've all but given up…it just seems that misery REALLY DOES love company.
My husband and I basically hang out with other happy couples because so many "friends" showed their true colors when we had joyous moments.
He said something that's so true of this type of behavior…he said "when you try to share your joy with people, most of them are so selfish, they don't even hear what you're saying—-they look at themselves first and say 'why don't I have…'"
He's right. So sad how some people are.
Please don't give up on these friends because they suffer from jealousy. Their jealousy is an issue that they have to deal with, and it has nothing to do with you. It might seem like it because their negative feelings are a result of your success, but it's really a personal issue for them.
I have been the jealous friend, and let me tell you, it sucks! You want everything in the world to be happy for your friend, and you are! But there's a little green monster eating you up inside. I applaud Angelina for being honest with you, and it's too bad that you feel like you can't still be friends. She obviously has issues to deal with, and she could use a friend right now.
When I confessed my jealousy to my best friend, she was supportive of me, and she tried to help me through it. Of course, it was my issue to deal with, and we got past it. Sometimes I do still struggle with being jealous of my friends, but I don't let that have a negative impact on our friendships because I know that my feelings are not the fault of my friends.
Some women do have competitive relationships with one another, and that sucks. I hope that you are able to make one or two connections in your life that are true, real, and unconditional. Yeah, it sucks if your friends can't express initial excitement with you over good things that happen to you, but give them time to react to their feelings, and they will probably come around.
You have every right to be happy and proud of your accomplishments.
Women are not very nice to each other.
I am genuinely happy for my friends,especially if they have worked really hard at something. We all feel jealousy at some time, but the way you deal with it makes a big difference. I have on many occasions said things like " I wish I had your ambition or talent". That lets the other person know you admire them and feel a twinge of jealousy at the same time.
I have written other posts about how women like other women to feel less about themselves, whether it be parenting,work etc..I don't know if it's a conscience thought process or not and I have been guilty of it a time or two myself.
Nice site! Enjoyable and fun reading. I have got a small thing to submit about tee shirts.

No ac. They had fans instead I placed it on high. The air was so dry.
The price of this hotel, it's not crowded, the staff are friendly
the waiting time to get my room was terrible, we checked in at 3pm and then they told me that my room was not ready and i have to wait atleast 1 hr before it will be available.
There was dirty robe in the room
Very reasonable price and spacious
No free coffee/tea making facilities or hair dryer. Had name change but didn't notify us. This made it hard to find.
casino was good, but rooms were a little behind the times.
rooms were little behind the times heater did not work
Really love the sport book, one of the best in Vegas
Really don't like the resort fee
Bed very comfortable, pool, staff nice
Too noisy because of the monorail outside, location far from bellagio
nice and clean, very big room
a little bit far away from the strip
Smoking in casino
The burger joint down stairs was geat!!
The bath room smelled like urine. And the beds were rock hard.
all around
Nothing ro was too loud nowhere to eat nothing for the kids and had to change rooms three times to get one to accommodate us two beds and no smoke ing
Everything see above
Off the strip and mono rail stop running at 3am makes it feel like you have a curfew in a city that never sleep
Room was out of date, little amenities. Room smelled bad, bed was poor. Elevators are confusing. Casino is small and old.
proximity to LV convention center
a bit outdated, even in the newly renovated rooms.
Our room looked like a bad 1980's movie with a kureg inside. It smelled horrible, there was hair in our sink. There is no reason rooms in 2014 should feel like a cheap hostel.
Did you renovate the rooms? I love the nonsmoking rooms. It's was so comfortable and luxurious!!
I hate the people standing by the elevator soliciting, but I know you're a resort. It's just annoying
- sauber - großer Raum - absolut ruhig - vielen Parkingmöglichkeit
Nice rooms, comfortable beds
Old, small casino. Not on strip. Resort fee was as much as room rate
Customer service was excellent
Wish the beds would've been bigger for the queen size and needs more complimentary items in the room
everything you need, rock vault show is one of the best, great food, sports screens, everything's clean, helpful staff
Not far from the strip Nice hotel
Keys had to be reissued twice Wouldn't open the room door Irritating to us to have to go to the lobby Oh well, we survived.
The location gives you easy access to everywhere in Las Vegas, wether you have your own vehicle or not.
I asked for a non-smoking room but it had a strong smell of cigar. Upon check-in, they were not clear of what I would get with the resort fee (extra $18) they charged. The hotel and the facilities inside it seemed a little abandoned.

A fast casual restaurant Gen Z loves
Still plenty of growth left! Decent value!
One of my fav restaurants to visit. Lot of new stores can open in the future as healthier eating gains traction and economy recovers
Operational problems (long wait times) are not yet under control and will take time to fix. Longer term, I think they will do better.
Panera 2.0 rolling out, revamped menu ingredients, changes to ordering and pick up
price beat down to point where it's attractive. Good margins and ROE. Fool favorite, and feel-good company.
buying a great company on a pullback. PNRA trades right now w/ a high PE (28) but earnings & ROE are increasing. A little bit of a concern right now (and why I am not putting real $$ in right now) is the level of insider sales over the last 6 months. Bottom line is everywhere I go, their restaurants are full, all the time.
New food offerings, good tasting, healthy meals, appeals to all ages.
I think Panera is fairly valued at the current price. While I have personally been disappointed by the decline in food quality during my most recent visits to Panera stores, I think there is still a fair amount of goodwill among the general public.
every time i go--i'm amazed--people just pour in. if they don't slip---future growth is very bright--go see for yourself.
Panera offers good value food but, more importantly, offers healthy food. This is an ethical investment given that obesity and related conditions are the #1 public health concern. Companies that peddle unhealthy food are unethical and are not riding the wave of the future.
When it comes to quick service and healthy options Panera Bread is in a league of their own. I wish they would open locations in Quebec.
Underpriced based on past EPS and P/E ratio averages. Lasting brand with good management
Everyone in my family likes this place. Recent dip provides good entry point.
Panera has grown sales at 15% and earnings at 25% for the past five years. Returns on equity have averaged 19% and returns on capital have been 19%. Earnings are projected by analysts to grow at 17% for the next five years.
To value Panera, I start with 2013 projected earnings of $6.69, grow them at 17% for five years, then at 15% for five years. I end up with $29.50 in earnings in 10 years. Assuming a P/E of 30 at that time, I get a share price of $885. Discount that back at 15% and I get a value of $220 or so. At $175 or so, that's a decent enough discount on a company that can likely grow faster than projected.
Good fast eat in restaurant that attracts a lot of attention. It also has great leadership.
Terrible food. The emperor wears no clothes.
Had a nice drop yesterday, so might be a decent buy. P/E is pretty reasonable for a growing company, and it certainly passes the anecdote test -- it's packed every time I go by. When your company's problem is figuring out how to serve the throngs of people that want your stuff, that's a problem, but a good problem.
sell off after disappointing earnings overdone. Nice p/e - 25
Need to address throughput issue
What goes up must come down. Will sit and wait after the lackluster report they just gave.

The most popular movies among NYTimes.com readers.
1 Readers' Reviews
September 1st, 20088:05 am
the musical soap opere is set in a house of st.louis inhabited by the smiths who are all simplistic ,sweet ,southern folks who have 4 daughters ,one son ,a maid and a grandad and they all share one thing in common -they talk rather loudly to exaggerated affect and sing too many songs ,
also the girls have no time for anything other than trying to entap young suitors and taking part in night time musical solos with young men on their porch ,
judy garland looks rather under-age and the little sister trudy who is 6 acts like a granny ,both the characters are bigger than life and overplayed to the extreme where obrien and garland even perform together in their parlour to cheering crowds ,
the father is well played and he complains incessantly about money and spendings by the family who eat 5 -course dinners everyday as well as never wear a dress again during a movie lasting over a year,but these are small or trivial concerns as they must avoid from being uprooted from sweet st.louis to manhattan or new york ,painted as the ugly ,monstrous city with evil people that sweet smiths cannot afford to confront ,
the plot is slight and the direction is sluggish with a sweet melody ocassionally surprising you and there are too many of them ,
the romantic duos lack any chemistry and the dazzling technicolor has lost the colorful appeal to my male senses at least .
this looked devoid of charm to me after the magic of sound of music which is a rather similar plot but executed much better on every level ,
a very familiar looking family musical which has not dated very well from my perspective at least .

Because Sussex County renumbered all addresses depending on how old your GPS maps are it might show 622 or 37300 Rehoboth Ave Ext as the address. All three are the same location.

No, and no they shouldn't have. It would make more sense in if they made something like 10 or 50 copies. The physical versions would still be incredibly rare, but more than just one part of the world can lay claim to it. Wu-Tang is global. Only one physical copy is such an extreme, but they clearly thought it was the best method to get the news out that they will only be selling their new album online. Also through the system of supply and demand they want to turn this album into an expensive one of a kind work of art, similar to a painting. Which in the end is still kinda dumb. I like my vinyls.

JACKSON, MS (WLBT) - Developers have been talking about revitalizing Farish Street for years. But for over a decade, the historic district is, for the most part, empty and abandoned.
In light of this weekend's Farish Street Festival, Three On Your Side checked on its progress.
We found construction crews working to build new businesses on the long-abandoned street with a rich history.
Watkins Development took over the project in 2008, after a number of developers failed on to revitalize the entertainment district. The company recently revitalized the nearby King Edward and Standard Life Building.
"Keep doubting us, because we're going to keep proving you wrong," said Brad "Kamikaze" Franklin, director of entertainment for Watkins Development."Our time has come. Finally. It's been a long road. It's been 15 years since we've been talking about getting this up and running."
Franklin said five buildings are on schedule to open in November. They are the Subway Lounge, Cool Al's Superburgers, the Big Apple Inn, Beethoven's, and Hamp's Juke Joint. According to Franklin, B.B. King's will open in May of 2011.
But there's still a lot of work to be done. Many buildings still stand, gutted and abandoned,.
"We're going to stay consist ant," said Franklin. "We want you guys to trust us, we want you guys to have faith we'll complete the project."
"We're going to try to get bigger and better each year, we just need people to come out and support it."
The construction gives new meaning to this weekend's 32nd annual Farish Street Festival. Gates open at 4 PM on both Friday and Saturday.
"It is a great stimulation to all of us. Especially, not only just because of the entertainment district, but to recognize the rich heritage Farish Street has had for all these years," said Lee King, executive producer of the festival.
"Farish Street, as I said, is a game-changer. This is going to change the complexion of this city and the surrounding areas for years to come," said Franklin.

Galaxy Science Fiction
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
(Redirected from Galaxy (magazine))
Jump to: navigation, search
Galaxy Science Fiction was a digest-size science fiction magazine, the creation of noted editor H. L. Gold, who found a responsive readership when he put the emphasis on imaginative sociological explorations of science fiction rather than hardware and pulp prose.
The magazine came into being because Vera Cerutti, a previous employee of Gold's, recommended him to the Italian publisher, Edizioni Mondiale (aka World Editions), which had failed to reach an American audience with their romance magazine, Fascination. Following Cerutti's suggestion, they approached Gold for magazine concepts. When he presented the notion of a science fiction magazine with a different approach, they not only went for the idea, they offered him the position of editor.
Gold kicked off his first issue (October 1950) with a line-up of heavyweight authors. In addition to short stories by Isaac Asimov, Fredric Brown, Fritz Leiber and Richard Matheson, the contents page listed novelettes by Theodore Sturgeon (The Stars Are the Styx) and Katherine MacLean (Contagion), plus part one of a serial by Clifford D. Simak (Time Quarry). The Matheson story, "Third from the Sun," was later adapted for a memorable episode of Twilight Zone's first season. Along with an essay by Gold, Galaxy's premiere issue introduced a book review column by celebrated anthologist Groff Conklin (which ran until 1955) and a Willy Ley science column that continued until his death in 1969.
Galaxy had a partnership with NBC's X Minus One, and a number of stories from the magazine had radio adaptations.
Begun as a monthly, the magazine varied between monthly, bimonthly and eventually irregularly-issued status at different times during its 30+ year run. In 1953 a French edition, Galaxie, was launched, and in 1957, a German edition, Galaxis.
After Conklin stepped down as book reviewer, his column was continued by Floyd C. "Gale" (actually Gold, H. L. Gold's brother). (Claims that Conklin himself continued the column after 1955 appear to be in error.) In February, 1965, Pohl brought Algis Budrys on as book reviewer; he was succeeded later by Sturgeon, who passed the job to Spider Robinson in 1975.
Notable illustrators for the magazine included Ed Emshwiller and Wally Wood. Vaughn Bode briefly contributed a comic strip, Sunpot, during the early 1970s. Jerry Pournelle served as science columnist under Baen. In the late 1970s, the critic and erotica author Richard E. Geis wrote a fannish commentary column ("The Alien Viewpoint") which had first appeared in Baen's If.
With the January 1975 issue, Galaxy incorporated its sister magazine, Worlds of If, founded in March 1952, with which it had shared several editors after purchase from founding publisher James Quinn in the latter 1950s. In 1980, Galaxy was acquired from UPD Publishing by Boston's Avenue Victor Hugo as a companion magazine to their Galileo Science Fiction. Editor Floyd Kemske produced a single issue (July 1980) in a standard magazine format rather than a digest, but without newsstand distribution, Galaxy ceased publication that same year.
In the early 1990s the magazine was purchased by E. J. Gold, son of the founder, who published eight bi-monthly issues in 8"x11" format on pulp stock (January-February 1994 to March-April 1995). His plans to continue Galaxy online did not develop, though he maintains a scattering of Galaxy-related web pages.
Spanning three decades, Galaxy published acclaimed science fiction under a succession of editors:
- H. L. Gold: October, 1950 - October 1961
- Frederik Pohl: 1959 - May 1969
- Ejler Jakobsson: July 1969 - May 1974
- James Baen: June 1974 - October 1977
- John J. Pierce: November 1977 - March-April 1979
- Hank Stine: June-July 1979 - September-October 1979
- Floyd Kemske: 1980
- Fascination, a magazine devoted to romantic fumetti, the first major project in the USA from Galaxy's founding publisher World Editions.
- Beyond Fantasy Fiction, a digest-size fantasy fiction magazine edited by H. L. Gold, 1953-1955. Poor sales led to a title change for its last issues to Beyond Fiction.
- Galaxy Novels, a digest-size line of reprints (often abridged), 1950-1958. The line was sold to Beacon Books, which kept the name but changed the format to small paperback and published another 11 issues in 1959-1961.
- Galaxy Magabooks, an early 1960s similar project.
- Worlds of Tomorrow, starting in 1963 and incorporated into If four years later, is notable for some of its nonfiction content, including R. W. Ettinger's early articles on cryonics. The title was briefly relaunched under Jakobsson, 1970-71.
- Worlds of Fantasy (1968), edited by Lester del Rey, by then a member of the Galaxy staff, and briefly revived under Jakobsson (1970-71).
- International Science Fiction (1968), a short-lived attempt, edited by Pohl, to offer a wide range of international sf, including many first-time translations into English.
Anthologies compiled from the magazine include the Galaxy Reader of Science Fiction series and Galaxy: Thirty Years of Innovative Science Fiction, edited by Frederik Pohl, Martin H. Greenberg and Joseph D. Olander (Playboy Press, 1980).

Three people were arrested for a string of burglaries in Huron, Woonsocket and Alpena after several reports of break-ins.
Corey Bunch, 32, and Joseph Gregg, 35, both of Wessington Springs, are charged with five counts of 3rd Degree Burglary and one count of Attempted Burglary. Emily Montoya, 27, of Huron is charged with Possession of Marijuana and Possession of Paraphernalia.
Huron police received five separate reports from local businesses on Friday in southwest Huron of break-ins or attempted break-ins. Surveillance video from the businesses linked the suspects to additional burglaries in Alpena and Woonsocket.

Lil Scrappy says he was left with no money and no roof over his head after a concert promoter screwed him over ... on a messed up night that culminated with police intervention.
Scrappy tells TMZ, he was scheduled to perform at Club Vizion Sunday in Louisville, KY, but when he showed up to do the show -- the promoter didn't have the money to pay him ... so Scrappy refused to take the stage.
Crowds of people had already shown up for the performance -- so Scrappy says the club owner paid the rapper a small sum to do a meet-and-greet instead of a show ... and Scrappy agreed.
When all was said and done, Scrappy says he went back to the hotel the promoter had arranged for him -- but the hotel informed him his reservation had been canceled and he was required to vacate.
A source at the hotel says cops were called to assist in Scrappy's removal -- but the rapper says he left voluntarily.
Scrappy tells TMZ, he has no plans to sue the promoter -- but vows never to work with him again
The promoter had no comment.
Lil Scrappy?? This would make a good name for a dog! How do these rappers come up with such ridiculous names?
This is what happens when you deal in "hood contracts". If Scrappy had real legit management he wouldn't be in this predicament. Why didn't he use his LHHATL money to keep the room until the his flight left. Why didn't Momma Dee warn her "Prince of the South" of street con artists after all,she claims she knows the streets and would do anything to protect him? Just a bunch of silly rabbits and in that order.
So... lil twerp got a "rapper's" treatment from a promoter?
My guess is he got what he deserves, It seems to me it would take a lot to "humiliate" a "rapper."
That might be hare to prove.
hey,you steal the silverware,"who dat be me ".....dumb purple lip lil niglet
Can this clown make his head go all the way around?
BeastMode Ent paid their half upfront. It was the club owner who didnt pay and had him kicked out of the hotel. The club owner wasnt happy about the turn out that showed up to see Scrappy (little to none) and refused to pay because he was loosing.

Scrappy has been around long enough to hopefully had his contracts in order so should be no issue the promotor must pay and if not will be sued promptly. Wish they put the promotors name out so other artists know a con man by name.
How can a grown man who is referred to as "Lil Scrappy" honestly be humiliated by anything?
lil scrappy you didn't put them paws on him your getting soft call your mama she'll handle that ****
Bro What the freak handle your business remember chid support .....

Kramer, what the hell are you doing?
Well, I'm sorry, Jer. But did you see who was moving in next door to me?
Oh yeah, Frank. I just met him in the elevator. Nice guy, I think he's an accountant or something. What does an accountant do all day, anyway? And what's with those green and white striped sheets? Who got to decide that green would be the color?
KRAMER (irritated)
Never mind that! What about his skin, Jerry? His skin!
JERRY (panicked)
What? Is he a leper? Crap – where did I put my Lysol?
No, he's not a leper. At least I don't think so – can't be too sure with those people. But Jerry, he's … he's … (makes strange face and wiggly motion with his fingers near his head) colored!
Have you been watching too many old movies again? Hate to break it to you, bud, but the whole world is in color now – kind of like in Wizard of Oz when she opens that door.
He's a nigger, Jerry. A nigger. (voice cracks). A filthy nigger.

I think I'm going to go find Newman. Maybe he and I will have ourselves a little race riot of our own. I think it's time we strung ourselves up a black man and stuck a fork up his … well, Jer, gotta go. (crashes into closed door, opens then leaves).

Audience members in the Ed Sullivan Theater, who were watching Richards on a screen, began laughing at Richards at first, thinking that the interview was a comedy skit, until Seinfeld admonished them, saying, "Stop laughing. It's not funny."posted by gsteff at 6:31 PM on November 20, 2006
There is much discussion about Richards' essential nature—is he or isn't he a racist? This is supposed to be a binary attribute, like being Armenian, homosexual, or club-footed: you either are, or you aren't, a racist. That seems to me all wrong. Every normal person harbors some identification with his race, as he does with his family, his nation, his mother-language group, his bowling league, etc. Group identification is a perfectly ordinary facet of human nature—though, like others, more intensely felt in some, less so in others, and possibly absent in a very few.posted by ibmcginty at 9:02 AM on November 21, 2006 [1 favorite]
Of course, as with other innate qualities—the urge to help oneself to other people's property, or to be intimate with attractive members of the opposite sex—this one is, among civilized people, circumscribed with rules and restraints. Under the system of manners prevailing in current American society, white people may express feelings about their whiteness, or about other folks' non-whiteness, only under a few extremely restricted circumstances, and are in fact taught from an early age to feel that white group identity is an unsavory and antisocial matter. ...
Michael Richards committed a gross breach of those customary rules and restraints—a severe etiquette malfunction, just as much as it he'd started fondling a female audience member. The inner Kramer—the one kept in rein by all those internalized restraints that make civilized life tolerable—just broke out for a moment. To assert that this proves him to be different from you and me in some fundamental, essential way—he is a "racist" and I am not—is just an absurd kind of moral preening.
I guess ?! is just far beyond everyone else.If by "beyond" you mean "off the deep end" then yes. Yes, I am.
