Atlanta, GA
The Spa opened in 2007 with only three services being offered: massage, yoga and naps and an inexperienced owner. Since then, aesthetics, chiropractic, nail services, acupuncture, spa parties and self-defense classes have been added to the menu. Created out of passionate awareness of the void of health and wellness at the corporate level, the business has succeeded in introducing healthy routines and programs to those in a stressful environment in not only the downtown Atlanta but, also the business travelers from all over the world. Located in a Class A flagship building, the SPA is next to the fitness center which creates additional walk-in opportunities. The Spa is in within the financial, convention and hotel district of downtown Atlanta and has become in Landlord's opinion an amenity to the building which it's expected to continue being successful. The 3000 sf space is very nicely decorated and well organized. It caters to professionals and affluent market. This business needs an owner/operator who will spend more time in marketing the spa services and take full advantage of its location and go a bit more aggressively after the corporate and hotel market. Currently, the owner is getting her customers mainly thru word-of-mouth and periodically email blast to over 2,500 emails. The current net profit of $49K could be increased by an intensive P.R. of all the services provided to all potential customers. Also, the new owner could adjust the current services and bring new ones he/she can see fit(one more chiropractor, hair stylist, nutritionist, laser removal services etc). This concept is so unique, that, upon creating a solid operational flow, it could be franchised. This Spa is poised for further growth. It has almost no competition at its level. With a great cross-sell system in place, among all the services this business offers, the new owner could significantly increase the net profit.

Dr. Han is amazing!!! She is a very smart physician and was able to help me with my acne, which many other doctors have failed to do! It makes sense why all her patients below must love her, except for the one below. Poor person below, she is probably delusional to be seeing blow torches being brought in at a doctor's office--I feel sorry for the her mother that she alludes to be taking care of! I highly recommend Dr. Han she is the best!!

I took my 90 year old mother. Dr Han was not helpful, she did not explain what she was doing and brought out what looked like a blow torch and proceeded to burn "blemishes" off my mother's face. It hurt a lot and there was absolutely no compassion.. Did not like her and will never take my mother back to her. I don't know how she could have been so nice to everyone else but she did not show any compassion to us.

It's morning, no story yet but having lunch with my daughter Sonya at La Gloria, no , that's not heaven, nor is it that sleepy little town down in South Texas by the border. It's a Mexican food restaurant at the old Pearl Brewery grounds. Is it any good or just ok, tell ya later,at least my thoughts. Oh, in San Antonio,Texas ( home of the Alamo.

Montgomery Parks Fall Trail Volunteer Events
Montgomery Parks Fall Trail Volunteer Events
Hello All –
After a lengthy spring and summer hiatus to launch the Volunteer Trail Ranger™ program, I'm finally ready to flex my atrophied trail muscles and get some work done out there! Who's with me? Whether you're a bike, hike or hooves type of person, there are trails near you that could use a hand, so I hope you can join me in building, maintaining and improving them on a weekend date soon.
Along with continuing to train long-term volunteers to become Trail Rangers, we've scheduled several maintenance project dates this fall including on National Public Lands Day, Sept. 29th, and will also resume work on the Muddy Branch Greenway Trail. As the location or details of some dates are still 'TBA' please check back to the trail volunteer page at www.montgomeryparks.org for updates.
Volunteer Trail Events Calendar
All our weekend trail projects have a minimum age of 14, and 14-17 year olds seeking SSL hours who cannot submit a volunteer application and parental release beforehand must be signed in by a parent at the start of the event. The minimum age for Volunteer Trail Rangers is 18; see the VTR website for full details on this program.
Please let me know if you have particular interest in any of these dates, or would simply like more information. In the meantime, have a happy Labor Day!
Best Regards,
Ben Sugar

Oh poo! I missed the auction.
This is a discussion on How Much Would You Pay For 3 Pounds Of Old Poo? within the Off Topic & Humor Discussion forums, part of the The Back Porch category; Dinosaur dung, also known as Jurassic-era coprolite, is being put up for auction by Bonhams New York. The excrement is expected to fetch $350 to ...
Dinosaur dung, also known as Jurassic-era coprolite, is being put up for auction by Bonhams New York.
The excrement is expected to fetch $350 to $450.
It looks like a rock on the outside and a colorful mineral inside, but the three-pound red and white fossil is actually a pile of dinosaur feces, says Tom Lindgren, the auction house's consulting director of natural history.
The fossilized number-two will be featured with other prehistoric items, including a 30,000-year-old woolly mammoth tusk, a 50,000-year-old skull and the jaws of a giant beaver.
It's uncertain what, exactly, the dinosaur ate to create the dung, but it doesn't take a paleontologist (or a proctologist) to tell that the creature probably should have had more fiber in its diet.
SOLD! For more than the expected amount.
The dung sold to an Ohio businessman for $960.
The stuff looks pretty doggone nice polished up as a gemstone though.
Oh poo! I missed the auction.

What is a Dakota Rising Fellow?
A Dakota Rising Fellow is a person who has taken a startup business to a viable, profit-earning stage and is poised for the next level of growth. After successfully completing the application process, and being chosen, Fellows are connected to a community of statewide resources, mentors and financial experts. Personal and business growth strategies are developed while working in a small cohort where Fellows help one another despite vastly different industries and experiences. After one year in the program, each Fellow is awarded a $10,000 grant to support professional growth and business expansion.
Do you have what it takes?
Are you the owner or primary decision maker of a business that is no longer concerned about survival? Are you primed for significant growth? Do you have at least one employee or contract for labor? Are you a job/wealth creator with a vision to bring outside dollars into your community? Are you ready to face the challenges known and unknown that have kept you from igniting significant growth in your company? If so, you are just the kind entrepreneur we are looking for. All it takes is an open mind and the willingness to grow. The cohort process is a deeply personal, highly confidential method of pushing you to do what you know you probably should, but don't. The very fact that you commit to the program provides the accountability for you to follow through with what you say you'll do, without excuses. Nowhere else can you get this sort of mentoring. You will work to prove yourself to your cohort. That's how the Dakota Rising program works.
What is the Fellowship application process?
Past Dakota Rising applicants contend that the application process alone is enough to get them thinking more strategically about growing their business. The application includes an executive summary, a business plan, action plan, financial statements, letters of reference, and a résumé. Assistance with the application is available statewide from a Small Business Development Center near you. The application has several steps to help ensure you're committed to the process.
- The first step is to request additional information from the Dakota Resources by clicking here.
- Once you've decided that you're going to apply, complete a brief online "Intent to Apply" form.
- You will then be contacted by Dakota Resources staff and a member of the Dakota Rising community to help you understand the selection criteria, commitment to the program, timeline for selection, and other details.
- Complete and submit your application.
- Applicants receive feedback from Dakota Resources staff, the Dakota Rising Community, two business leaders and the Finalist Selection Team.
- If you are selected as a Fellowship Finalist, you will be paired with a mentor who will help you update and refine your application.
- You then resubmit the final application along with financial forecasts.
- All Finalists will spend a day with the Fellows Selection Team.

Everton have trigged the release clause of Elche's Colombia international Carlos Sanchez, according to Football Espana.
Reports from Spain claim that Everton have registered a €2m offer with the Spanish league, the LFP, and are close to agreeing a four-year contract with the 28-year-old.
Sanchez only moved to Elche last summer, having previously played for French outfit Valenciennes. He spent six years with the club, beginning his career at Uruguayan club River Plate, making more than 150 appearances in France and almost 50 for the Uruguayans.
Elche signed Sanchez upon their promotion to the top flight of Spanish football last season and he made 30 appearances as Los Ilicitanos avoided relegation. Sanchez also featured four times for Colombia at the World Cup, playing against Greece and Ivory Coast at the group stage and Uruguay and Brazil in the knockout rounds.
His contractual situation is said to be complicated by third-party ownership, however, with Elche not having full control over his registration – two agencies are thought to hold significant percentages of Sanchez's economic rights.

Defcon – PC
4.5 stars - Pocket-lint recommended
It's introversion, multiplayer heaven, nuclear holocaust has never seemed so appealing
Erm…It's a bit dark?, Not for graphics whores, and that's about that
The plight suffered by today's modern day gaming developer is plain to see. Over the last decade we've seen so many independents either swallowed up by one of the big boys, or simply forced out of the business full stop.
But one talented little group by the name of Introversion Software is still fighting the good fight by releasing some cracking titles on the PC.
First we had the hacking orientated Uplink, a title dripping with atmosphere and tension. Second, an incredibly stylish twist on the traditional RTS genre by the name of Darwinia.
And now – inspired by John Badman's film WarGames – here's Introversion's take on the threat of thermonuclear warfare. So, we've gone from cutesy green Darwinians to millions of deaths in a single stroke. Nice.
A multiplayer title - though single player "AI bots" are included for those wanting to practice on their own or those lacking chums - Defcon let's us play ... say it ... global thermonuclear war.
Oh and everybody dies.
To say we're fans of Introversion's previous titles is a bit like saying thermonuclear war would be a "bit bad" for those who don't particularly like the idea of death.
So it's pleasing to be able to say that Defcon is a worthy contender for multiplayer title of the year, if not game of the year full stop.
Instead of the blood and guts that the big boys would have served up, we've been given a stylish and simplistic viewpoint of the world at large with tiny two dimensional icons and simple text informing you of the millions you've killed or lost.
Obviously it's the stylish neon graphical interface that first hits you like a bolt from the proverbial blue. It's not quite as "sunglasses required" as the film Tron can be, but it's certainly a gorgeous representation of the world at large.
You start the game at Defcon 5, allowing you to place your radar dishes to detect the enemy's oncoming hordes of missiles. You then set down missile silos that double up as points of defence at a mere mouse click.
Finally, you place submarines, battleships and carriers and you're raring to go. Each unit has their own specific task and where you set each before the real action starts to heat up can make or break the game.
Your subs can stealthily make their way to enemy territory and eventually fire off a few nuclear powered rounds, but only if their carriers haven't slipped into anti-sub sonar mode and destroyed your potential death bringers with a few handily place depth charges.
It's the time taken switching between these modes that really gets the old grey matter working. Although firing off a barrage of nuclear weapons as soon as Defcon 1 hits may seem like a good idea, it shows up exactly where your silos sit. You then face a nervy few minutes waiting for them to return to their defensive modes before you're able to fight off a retaliatory strike.
The game's tag line "everybody dies" is very apt. No matter how good you are, or how adept your strategic brain is, one of your cities is going to get hit. It's not about who wins, but who loses least.
We haven't even started on forming alliances yet, but giving it all away would be akin to telling you that the world doesn't blow up at the end of WarGames. Oops.
You'll enjoy every second that you learn and adore every second you play. At £10, if you pass up on this opportunity, you don't deserve to call yourself a gamer.
Now go raise merry hell.
