How To Get Out of A Bad Business Partnership
Divorce Business Style
A business partnership, like a marriage, comes with emotional and legal considerations that should really be thought out in advance. However, business owners, like newlyweds, are often blinded by the bright glow of hopes and dreams. No one likes to think "worst case" or if they do they are often referred to as "the negative one." In this age of "The Secret" and all that positive thinking implies, it is especially important that objective thinking be applied to any relationship you enter into on a legal basis.
In business, the 50-50 partnership, obligates you to either buy out a partner or dissolve your business if things aren't working out. When I say, "not working out", this does not only refer to things beyond ones control. It also refers to a partner who is consciously ripping the business off or conducting themselves in an inappropriate or destructive manner. It doesn't matter. Your partner could be robbing you blind and you would still either have to buy them out or dissolve the business. In both cases, it will cost you a lot of money in legal fees and in lost productivity.
Having been through a series of partner dissolutions, my advice to small business owners is as follows:
- If you can do it without a partner, I highly recommend you fly solo. You can always hire people that perform the functions you need to add to your special skills.
- If you really want to work with a partner, do a lot of research on the person before you go into a legal partnership. Know who you are dealing with. Interview them. Interview people that have worked with them.
- If you can own a majority stake instead of 50-50, do that.
- If you enter into a relationship and know that it has gone bad, deal with it quickly. Don't drag these things on. Your business and your mental health (maybe even physical health) will suffer.
- Get a good lawyer. This is not the time to penny pinch.
- Work from a place of forward thinking. Rehashing the past or having an internal debate about who did what, or who is right and who is wrong, is a waste of your time and energy. You can't turn back the clock. You can learn from the past if you let the anger go.
- Splitting with a business partner is not always just business. It can get personal. Be easy on yourself. You'll need time to recover from the process in one way or another.
- Don't rush into any new partnerships or make rash decisions. It's not the time to jump into anything too quickly.

My husband went into partnership with daughter/son in-law. The reason the business start my husband worked for a company and retired loved driving. part of his pension money paid of the house, car and estate, balance went for the vehicle .he drove for two years plus ,which brought in the money and the son in-law in trust was given the power of attorney and he also put the vehicle in his name ,because of tax proposes .Now my husband just want to come out of the CC/revoke the power of attorney. He does not have the money to fight this, please if someone can help, will be highly appreciated
I started a business in 2010 my work colleague joined me in 2011 we havnt signed any contract yet but are soon, I want to know if im entitled to the name of the business as I was the one who thought of it??
we are 6 partner business is running in loss so 4 partner wants to close the business and 2 dosnt want to close the business and in the 2 one is selling his share to other third party it is possible
My stress level has increased over the last month, in the beginning of our partnership, this person was a real good talker, and as soon as we started working he turned into an abusive power hungry monster. My stress is so bad right now I am kicking myself for trusting someone with a concept that is so damn important to me. He is sloppy and I think to my benefit, no agreements between us were drafted. I have been advised to see a lawyer... I am by no means in a financial situation to hire a lawyer, but at this point I need to. I feel like he pulled the wool over my eyes, but do people believe that what goes around comes around?
Good stuff- You might want to also look at the Hub "The 2% Solution to Business Partnerships" https://hubpages.com/business/Disputes-among-Busin...

I am in business with my soon to be exhusband. I do all the work and I mean all the work. He doesn't come in anymore and my stress level is so high that I can't manage and I am getting sick. I want to dump the company and walk away but he won't sign the papers. I am so screwed.
Hi two friends and I started a small business. Each paid an equal share for stock One of the friends has been unreasonable and taking stock at cost price instead of purchase price. We are not turning over a profit yet, their attitude is also well it's my money I can do what I like. The other friend and I are on the same wave length and want to continue on together. However we feel we need to ask this person to leave before it gets worse. The person however is showing no signs of going anywhere and carries a lot of weight in a network/group and we believe they will make it unbearable and do anything to stop us succeeding. There have been no contracts signed, although I own the domain name (which I originally came up with) they have the Facebook page. Unsure how to deal with this.
We went into business with my in-laws, we had a new baby & needed to upgrade our home & income & they had the solution (?!)....fast forward nearly three years & they have simply run off & left us here with a rapidly failing business & mounting debts. Since they left we have discovered many discrepancies within the financials & hidden facts, paperwork & things like they bought their car in the company name without our knowledge or consent. They are now threatening bankruptcy unless we pay their outstanding monthly debts (credit cards etc) but refuse to return & help us find an out. Their bankruptcy would cost us the business & our apartment as it is securing the business loan.....what are our legal rights on this? We are trying to sell & are resigned to carrying the leftover debt but somehow it feels that we surely have some rights here?!
we are company looking for someone who wanna be partner in our company,to open branch in any country,we are company of designer house and director and selling stuffs for house and designer.

Can someone give me advice i went in to partnership just over two years ago. 50-50. We sell new and used commercials. I put my life savings in. My business partner has been taking over all accounts and moneys going in and out and I know he has been taking money out over and above what we agreed each month. With the banks now stopping overdrafts for stocking with all of this type of business they want us to pay back the overdraft as a loan. My business partner said we can not afford two wages and a loan to pay off and has asked me to leave with no payout? I am not well as I am waiting for tests to come back for cancer. This situation is making very depressed as I will have nothing to live on or even leave my family If things get worse with my health. Please help me as I need no stress at this time.

Help! I started a business and I am slightly higher in the majority in that I put more into the business up front. 11 months in my business partner has taken seriously I'll and left but is insisting on sending her son into take her place and work free of charge so she still gets her full wage/profit! Can she do this? Her son is very angry and is impossible to work with and keeps throwing a strop infront of clients! I have warned him that I will have home leave bit he refuses! My business partner has also stated that in the event of her not returning to work her share will become her sons! Can she do this? Where do I stand as we have no contract (yep I know) and I want to buy them out! Surely in her absence my word is final in the work place! Help please ASAP!
Hi, I got in partnership with my brother the business went well but i was doing somuch for the company i worked hard and i wake up early for it and he was just sleeping and eating.

I happen to be happy cause i am used to do things on my own.The Business is fine it is running now the problem is we don't speak to each other and stressing my mom and my sister How to deal with is very painful. I do care about him just i don't want to do business with him and i want him to be my brother is very hard. Is like i don't have a brother and my family they don't know.I regret being a partner with my brother
Hi, I need advise. I went into a 50/50 partnership, im a conservative buyer the other partner not, so I have been saving the business money and the partner not, it was discussed that both of us will draw salary from end of feb, not happening, then I decided that my partner should maybe buy me out, but i don't know how it works, ive read on internet that you can claim back whatever you put into the business, goodwill and at least six months salary seeing that I have to be able to live while looking for a new job. What do I do????
There are a number of questions that need to be answered before you can know what your options are. Was there any paperwork signed to describe the partnership? operating agreements? Your next stop needs to be with an attorney. Your tax issues could bite you way beyond what cash your partners are taking.
Me and my brother own half of a bar/restaurant and two other people own 25% percent each. We've been in business for five years now and the other two have taken out a lot of money that they shouldn't have. One owner took 62,000 and the other owner took $37,000. Me and my brother have taken out under $5,000 each for a total of about $9500. We have had numerous talks with then regarding taking money out of the company that has nothing to do with the company. The agree to stop taking money but as soon as the meeting is over they spend more money that same week. We owe money to the IRS and are always late on rent because of this. We never have money to pay our bills on time and keep getting fined for late payments which add up. What are our options?
galatai- the answer you don't want to hear is...it depends. You should definitely spend a few bucks now with a good biz attorney. It could save you a lot later on.
Hi I have a business partner who walked away from the business a few years ago and left me with the loan and all the bills .is it true they are still entitled to half of everything when I deside to sell up
Pick your business partners twice as carefully as you pick a spouse. A spouse can only take half of what you have.
To In a Bind... does the father in law want to get paid back badly enough to help you ouster the partner? Might be worth the call, if you bail it sounds like the father-in-law has himself a write-off. If the biz is viable I'd work more on getting rid of partner than getting rid of the loan.
HELP! I am in a partnership with someone who doesn't do any of the work. He is always "sick", the problem is the company borrowed money from his father-in-law to get it going and it will take a long time to pay him back, I have been trying to stick with it because I feel I need to make sure the guy gets paid back, but I am tired of doing all the work and my partner doing nothing! Any suggestions??
message to carol : how is it going now im in the same position more or less but with my ex partner
I need advice. 12 months ago, I had been laid off and a man I know was also laid off. He thought it would be a good idea to start a business, I supported his thought because he seemed like he would do good. Big mistake. I found out he was an alcoholic, and he became verbally and then physically abusive towards me. During one of our meetings with an educator (we were interviewing teachers) he broke out a bottle of beer and proceeded to drink from in in front of her. Anyhow, long story short, he says that he blew through $100,000.00. I know that he hasn't, we started off with little money, but I knew that he drank a lot and had a lady friend that he was paying her rent and bills. I finally started my own business and let him know I was going to work elsewhere, now he mentioned something along the lines that he is expecting his money or investment to be paid back. Can you believe that?
What should I do? We never had a contract. I believe that it was his choice. I always said I would help him, he would call me the co-owner or business partner, and I would always say that he was my boss. Please advise.
I have been working with my old man 38 yrs now , when we started work it was in a back yard .over the years we have grown .We now owen a building on the main street . problems started years ago. we never wrote a contract over years but i have put all the i have made back into the place. he wrote everything down but over the years seems to have lost the ledger.. being he was dad i never worried about it.now a days i am 50yrs old ,had a heart attack and want my money!since i now longer work his buiness has gone down .. he has always worked the office and i have always worked the shop area.. hell for the last 10yrs i worked for nothing 200$ a week my son has always asked way don't you get married or have a girl friend its been so bad all i can tell him is i can`t afford one.I could go on &on but i will spare you all..what percentage do you think then split should be I need some help " SLOWER "
I'm in a partnership, I hold 50% and have 2 partners (a married couple) who have 25% each, I do all the work, they 'take care' of the finances, we've been in business for 2 1/2 years and I've been treated terribly, I have NEVER seen the accounts after repeated requests and even when a solicitor requested them they've said no, this is illegal, but without the money to take her to court I'm stuck. I am paid lees than minimum wage and living on the breadline, I can't access housing benefit, free prescriptons and the like as they all require proof of income which they won't give me, I can't walk away because as a 50% shareholder in a business I won't get benefits, they've underpaid one of my staff by thousands and there's nothing I can do, so depressing, and I can't get any free help as it's business related ,this can't go on!
hi i have taken some money from my business and now my partner wonts me out, he has gave me two options to work away with just my tax and n.i bill or shut the business down and split the debt athougth the company is not in debt, can any one give me a little help with this many thanks
My boyfriend went into a bar with his friend of 10 years. My boyfriend put in $55000 and his friend put in $10000, my boyfriend wanted to be the silent partner and was happy for his friend to run the bar as long as his accountant oversaw it all and the friend was to keep all the books up to date. It has been 3 years now and my boyfriend hasn't seen a cent. The friend pays himself a wage and has now opened up an art gallery on the same street and keeps saying that the bar is not making any money although it is busy and they have bands and a great menu. The friend has been stalling on the books as well but from the books he has handed in they all say the bar is not making money. We are now waiting on the accountant to finish the books for the end of financial year and my boyfriend has told the friend he wants to get out but the friend says "he has not money" He lives upstairs from the bar and runs it and pays the staff cash in hand. It is causing so much stress in my relationship I just need to know what to do?

my brother got into a business with a parner less than a month in the partner barely showed up didn't put hours of work into the business or money at that fact. my brother spent over 60 thousand dollars for a company that he could have just did himself. its an early business that sees a bump in the beginning is there an easy way to get rid of that bump and continue with smooth driving
I was given 10% of a company 14 years ago. I had started working for the company as a Machinist with 5 other employees and the owner decided he was going to "give" 2 of us 10% each. I have paid taxes over the years on dividends and then we "re-invest" the dividends back into the company to help it grow (we did not have the cash to disberse). I receive a K-1 every year. The company now has sales of approximitly 8.5 million with 72 employees. I want to leave to help my son with his business (another machine shop) and would like some advise on how to exit. I do not have a non-compete agreement nor do we have an owners agreement (which I have insisted we do from the start). Can you help?
1) Never start a business with a family member or hire a family member
2) If you find yourself doing ALL the work in a partnership, disuss it openly or dissolve it immediately. Either wise you will SUFFER. Suffering is spending energy on things that are 1000% beyond our CONTROL
3) Never start a business with a friend. Eventually emotions will over run logic and cloud our left brain, or decision quadrant.
4) Hire a lawyer. Pre-paid legal is best and cheap.
Right now I am dealing with, shall I say, a friend whom I started a business with. One of our businesses I spent close to $4,000 on an event and got nothing back but complaining and regret.
You would think I would have learned my lesson, but I did not. So now we are doing a bigger deal and there is even more money at stake. Unfortunately I am doing all of the work, the calls, the appointments, the showings, the contracts, everything. My partner just sits around playing xbox and trying to get his girlfriend, who is a complete cuck, I mean straight outta the G building.
So the lesson I am learning is expensive, stressful and could have been avoided if I would have dissolved my LLC after my first 4 gees.
Thanks to all that have posted on this website, it has been an eye opener. im in a partnership right now and i don't like any thing about it. All that it has done is tear my family apart . I don't know how to end it and i don't want this bussieness to come to a halt. i think that it is a great bussieness its just not me. I'm not looking for anything but to get out of it just want out how can i do this with out crashing the biss., or having to take something. im at a lose in my life and don't know what to do. This has been an emotional, physical, and down right stressful. I just need a little bit of assitance in getting out of this. i want to start MY OWN but a partnership will never be a chocie ever again any suggestions would be great . Once again thank you to all that have wrote on this page it really gives me insight to how often this happends and not to sound rude but im sure some feel the same way, and that is dumb. Atleast i do.
Any ideas on getting rid of the ex wife/business partner?
I offered to buy out my 50-50 partner who has become impossible to work with and the staff is complaining about him. He said he is not ready to be bought out. Now what do I do? How can I get him out?
I am in partnership with an unreasonable and verbally abusive man, who not onlly brings absolutely nothing to the table in terms of ideas and overall input, but he also had the audacity to complain about things which are perfectly fine and create problems. We (I) started this business in june this year and we've already been voted top of what we do (it's a hostel)by various websites. Still, i can't bear him- his abuse, his comments, the fact that thanks to my capabilities he's making money off my ideas....so i asked to be bought out- just cut my losses and run......run, run, run and do it all again on my own. PEOPLE, GO SOLO- PARTNERSHIPS ARE VAGUE AND EMOTIONALLY EXHAUSTING.
But, must admit that i'm very excited about the prospect of opening up my own hostel, which will be even better than my last one. And, god knows that he'll his down the drain. Pity, as it is a really nice hostel.
I helped my husband start up a business (I as VP) over 13 years ago and we have done well. However, I quit a couple of months ago because of all the crap. I threatened to quit before if things did not change---My husband was wishy-washy changing things daily, letting employees run over him and always saying I was a ball buster. When some new employees were hired and our assistant was basically run off after 5 years of employment I was so angry at the treatment of her, that was the last straw. I feel that I lost my authority and morale a long time ago. When I quit, everyone says it was the best thing to do to save my marriage. However, quitting when you didn't really want to quit sucks! Also, you learn who is loyal and who is not in the aftermath. Through it all, I believe that certain men feel threatened by women.
If your putting all the money in for a start up business and your "partner" is emailing all the contacts
how much should he be entitled to ?
I currently am in a partnership with Napoleon and a blind investor. Investor does not ask enough questions but is prepared to drop a lot of money into the company. I want out due to the bad business tactics and blatant lies by Napoleon 33% has changed to 20% over the last two months.. There is no paperwork drawn but several documents referring to me as partner. I have spoken to an attorney and attempting to sell my equity and future patent royalties to the partners just to get out of the company. Can I just leave and go operate the same type business or can they attempt to sue me for anything if I do?? Thanks, great hub here Rochelle
I have started a business with a friend some time ago, we were stragling at the begining but we are getting there now. My friend!Patner wants out but he is not willing to take money and go. he is asking me to close down the company.
If i don't want to close down business and he wants to close down, what is the legal standing?
NOTE. We don't have any agreement..yeah i know dump!
Just finalizing the sale of our business. My partner has no idea that my main motivation for getting out is that I just can't fathom working with her another day. We have such different ways of viewing situations, handling clients, communicating etc etc, I feel her presence at the company is seriously detrimental. I'm just thanking my lucky stars that I have a way out. Honestly, you have no idea what it will be like to work with a partner, even if you're friends. DO IT ALONE!!!
my friend is in a bad partnership and needs to get out other partner has been offered money but wont take it he says he is not a bad person but has so many problems in work has lost just about all his family and friends. his friends arent his friends they call him all day during work hours and ask for money he makes good money and never has any he doesn't put any effort into his work or partnership my friend has threatened to leave and just start another business what can i do to help this friend
My husband was also my business partner for 15 years. Don't EVER do that! In our case, he was allergic to detail, so I ended up with the administrative "cleanup" so to speak while he was on the phone talking to clients, traveling and being the "big cheese." Next came employees who despite the fact that I was working my butt off - and often working at home late at night, resented me as "the wife." They had this notion that I sort of hung out at the office until the kids got out of school and they made things very difficult. But because they were young and male, my husband wanted them to look up to him, so he tended to identify with them. I think that this type thing happens to a lot of wives who end up in anything "Mom and Pop." I finally sold some of my shares to a key employee and handed my husband the rest of the company just to get out. Of course with the economy being in a slump when that happened, all of my proceeds went to our household and so I personally didn't see a dime. Add to that it's hard to get a job do to the present market, my age, and the fact that thanks to the way my husband insisted we run things - which kept me snowed under with clerical work - I never developed my career skills properly. If we hadn't had the kids, I'd have left him during the worst of this.
I just wanted to vent my situation,any advice will really help...I put all the money in to start this business.my partner/friend has payed me back since we have been succesful in our venture..it has been two years now and her son just started working with us. MY son has worked with us fo over a year and makes the same amount of money since he started, my partner has been paying her son more because she is in charge of the finance part of the business. I feel stupid for not looking sooner but I felt I COULD TRUST her she is my friend of 10 years. now I am so stressed out about this. she said she was reimbursing him for something, I feel i should know what is going on with my money ..when i do confront her she gets into a defense mode and accuse me of doing things and hiding things from her..I need to dissolve this partnership but not sure where to begin.. the contract has both our names on it ..but her integrity is an issue to me..isn't this a breach of that contract? in my eyes it is..any advice anybody can give me would be appreciated..MD
Thanks for the article, Rochelle, it is amazing how it helps to see things from a different angle!. I have always been flying solo and think will get back on track.
It is always a fond of inspiration to find people like you!
All the best
Get a lawyer if you don't have one already. Sadly, you may need to close down the business or at least make it clear that you are ready to do so. He may realize that getting some money will be better than getting no money. Of course, I don't know your situation and your business reality. I could not have done it without a lawyer who was very sympathetic and a great listener.
I feel like I`m splitting up with a girl friend....My partner is irrational I offered him great deal to him buy out he said no it was not fair.....I then reversed the offer with him buying me out for the same price.....he was offended saying he was being ripped off......I can`T WIN any suggestions
Thanks good advice here.Just ended a business partnership and feel very releived.Went into it blind to be honest.Going to sit back and have a nice cold beer....no more 50/50 crap.

In the middle of the bread (white, wheat or whatever your choice is) cut about a 3-in. hole. Using a small skillet, melt the butter, then put the bread in the melted butter. Crack the egg in the hole of your bread. Cook for about 2 minutes over medium heat until the bread becomes browned. Flip and cook the other side until egg yolk is almost set. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Repeat until full! :)

So, I saw INCEPTION today. It. Was. Awesome. With Christopher Nolen directing, Leonardo Di Caprio starring (with lovely Ellen Page :3) and Hans Zimmer composing, how could it be anything other then amazing? If you haven't seen it, run out RIGHT now. It's this decade's Blade Runner, it's smart, thrilling and mind-bogglingly crazy. Nolen spent 10 years working on this, so make it worth his while. Go see it. You'll regret it if you don't! INCEPTION gets 10 HURRRRMS out of 10!
Good ol' Toy Story, my whole childhood. Luckily, I saw Toy Story 3 at the Sydney IMAX theater. And it's fucking awesome. Sad, funny and NOSTALIGA-GASMS ALL ROUND, all at the same time. Pixar's best movie? Nope, that was UP, but this is a close second. Special props go out to Mr. Potato Head, for his great performance as food, and Woody for being a bro. Toy Story 3 gets 9 nostalgia-gasms out of 10!
Just Cause 2 is a fucking great time, 'splosions, shitty voice acting and a massive open world make Just Cause 2 a very enjoyable, if repetitive action experience. While most of the missions you do for the 3 factions are the same, the 8 Agency missions take you to all corners of the ficional south east Asian country of Panau, while doing some awesome stuff, such as jumping between 3 massive skyscrapers while fighting ridiculously powerful enemies. Just Cause 2 gets 8 GOT ME WITH HIS WIRE THINGS out of 10!
And finally, the review I like to think all of you have been waiting for, Predators! It's…alright. No where near as good as the original flick, but much better then of pile of shit known has Predator 2. Adrian Brodyquest redeems much of the movies flaws though (such as the terrible CGI Predator dogs and sky diving sequence), and it looks like Rodriguez has a sequel in mind, so hopefully that means another chance to get it right. The Predators still look Predatory and Brodyquest's nose is still fucking huge. Predators gets 8 GET TO DA CHOPPAS out of 10!

Industrial-organizational (I-O) psychology is the scientific
study of the workplace. Rigor and methods of psychology are
applied to issues of critical relevance to business,
including talent management, coaching, assessment,
selection, training, organizational development,
performance, and work-life balance.
Many I-O psychologists design and/or provide training on a wide variety of topics.
Workplace diversity has become a strategic imperative in many companies across the
country, from production floors to the boardroom. This module covers the multiple types of
diversity that are encountered in todays workplace. The materials include lecture
overheads for a 15-20 minute lecture (include the "Challenges of Diversity"
slides if you have extra time) and an activity that could be conducted in 15 minutes or
could be expanded for additional student involvement and critical thinking.
The material in this lecture is based on the work of Susan Jackson and Associates in
their book Diversity in the Workplace (see References).
Workplace Diversity
International Meeting Activity
This activity is intended to illustrate the assumptions we all make in simple social
interactions. Break up the class into groups of 5-6 and provide each with a set of
instructions. The instructions will differ from group to group and will focus on a set of
cultural norms, specifically greetings, personal space, eye contact, and
Greetings: instruct each group to do one of the following:
Use handshakes as greetings
Use a nod of the head as greetings
Use a loud "LA" as greetings
Personal space: instruct each group to do one of the following:
Maintain at least a 2-foot distance (by backing away if necessary)
Maintain a 6-inch distance between you and others
Eye contact: instruct each group to do one of the following:
Stare at people you talk with
Never make eye contact with people you talk with
Make initial eye contact but look away as discussion begins
Individualism/Collectivism: instruct each group to do one of the
Never leave the other members of their group
Never refer to oneself by name, only by group membership
Never stay with the other members of their group
Talk about oneself to the exclusion of other members of your group
By combining different levels of the four sets of cultural norms (some of which have a
basis in actual cultures, others not), you can create groups different enough from each
other to create some challenges for the groups. Give the groups 1-2 minutes together to
discuss how they want to approach the meeting and then give the entire class their task.
The task that each member of the class must accomplish is introducing themselves to 5
other members of the class (from other groups) and learn one interesting fact about each
After 10 minutes of interaction, bring the class back together and review the
discussion questions provided with the lecture.
If you have more time to devote to the activity, provide the groups with the four sets
of cultural norms (i.e., greetings, personal space, etc.) without the behavioral examples
and have them devise their own culture.
This exercise gives students an illustration of the sorts of problems that someone from
a different culture encounters when they are unaware of or dont understand the
assumptions of a different group.

One of our newer and very popular offerings from Bugei is our Dragonfly koshirae katana. It is a katana of distinctive style with a thinner, lighter blade individually hand forged and folded from the superior Swedish Powdered Steel. It comes as a shinogi zukuri sword with a chu kissaki. It is available with or without bo-hi and is a very affordable sword. (Please note: The photo above shows white samekawa and black silk ito -- the blade photographed was a prototype -- the Dragonfly comes with black samekawa and dark brown silk ito.)
Wakizashi and Tanto
are also available in matched designs.
Our work with Paul Chen continues to produce swords of the highest quality -- the best value for the money. All of our swords are tested extensively before they are put into production. We make sure that our swords perform as good as they look. The Dragonfly held a special significance to the Samurai. Their seemingly tireless movement reflected the Samurai's desire to give tireless service to his feudal Lord. The dark brown silk ito is set off by the black same making this a unique offering from Bugei. The lower shinogi and the scant hira-niku make this blade lighter and faster and gives it less resistance in cutting soft targets. The blade feels very light in the hand but it is not overly thin. However, one should take care in cutting anything more than soft targets with a sword of this design.
The lighter weight, with available bo-hi, and beautiful hamon and hada, a product of the forging and folding of the Swedish Powdered steel, will make this sword a favorite of Iai practitioners as well as anyone interested in a light fast katana. The tsuka has the slight "waisting", ryugo, that is popular with many who study Japanese sword arts. The fittings are beautifully antiqued duplicating the lood of old iron. Ted Tenold is responsible for the design and authenticity of these fittings and we think that they are the best that we have offered.
Please select whether you want a bo-hi (groove) on your Dragonfly Katana in the options.
Dragonfly Wakizashi
Dragonfly Tanto

for to check for availability.
Or to order by phone dial (800) 437-0125
We are frequently asked for detailed information on the measurements of our swords. Keep in mind that all of our exclusive swords are hand forged so there is always some variation. During a quality control visit we asked Keith Larman to measure a "typical" Dragonfly sword. Here are the measurements for this one sword.
Nagasa: 29"
Kasane (thickness at habaki): 6.5mm

@ let the truth you said Skerrit under enough pressure to build back Dominica? You don't see pressure yet. He is indeed under serious pressure and so too is his lying attorney that cannot help Skerro now because he too under serious pressure. Both of them running these days. One hiding in Antigua with the file he was asked to turn in and the other going crazy in DA because he knows is just a matter of time. They are at the door step knocking the door but instead of opening the door they running to hide. Stay tuned Mr let the truth be known original because soon the truth will be known.
You are not in favor of Dominica returning to normal. Too much talking on your part and no action for the betterment of Dominica.
If you do not cease your negativity and pray for Dominica, nationals and yes, your PM, other politicians see what will happen and to you in time as God takes note of your consistent negative words which produce nothing good.
God does not appreciate complainers and those who consistently spew criticisms of which you are one.
@ let corruption continue in the name of let the truth be know. Do want the truth known? If so why you always rebuking those coming out with the truth and you use all type of scare tactic to silence them? I HATE lies, though not the liar and I hate injustice unlike you. I hate what God hates while you love what God hates. To talk about what will happen to me if I don't take note is foolishness because that will not stop me from call wrong, wrong. I will not wish you any evil except to encourage you to stand up for truth and stop defending lies and corruption. That's what God hates and will judge according to Proverbs 6:14-19
@ de eyes have it you all not tired of defending a failed government that has amassed millions in personal wealth while the majority depends on crumbs. To talk about the first three weeks nothing could be done to put mechanisms in place for duty free concession, because of no power to use computer is pure lunatic! FYI the first week post Maria, PM was able to engage Ross University and gave them the assurance that Picard would be fully ready by month end of November, for Ross to resume. I like that because the north in particular depends on Ross. But you know Skerrit did not meet with them because he had Dominica and the North on his mind? He did that BECAUSE OF THE VILLAS and I can bet you that the small village of Savanne Pile, with less than a hundred residents, will get electricity and water before Roseau and Portsmouth are fully powered. Do you know why? Because that's where the state villas are and we must get them ready to facilitate Ross faculty and professors.
As far I am concerned they should remove duty on everything except maybe on alcohol, and cigarette,. I say maybe because they too should probably be duty free for a short time so people could have something to help them deal with their stress , fears, and anxieties because these are not easy times for us . So every d*mn thing should be duty free and let Skerrit use the passport money they have hiding in Dubai and other for foreign countries, to run the country.
Almost three months since Maria and only now this lazy one man government waiving these duties? That is to show if they were busy to see life get back to normal in a hurry. No doubt Maria gave us a serious pounding but thank God many were spared and as the saying goes, where there is breath there is life. These duties should have been removed for first thing like by Month end of September, so persons could start doing what they could much sooner. Skerrit just likes to keep people down for as long as he possibly can to get praise later. I bet you he has already placed his order for containers of Ham and Turkey so he could distribute to his worshippers. That's why Dominica cannot go anywhere as long as this man is prime Minister and Charo is his president. They make us a ham and turkey nation
If you were listening and was aware what was happening in dominica , instead of being overseas and listening to facebook . the first two weeks were only relief and the port was severely damaged . You would want to come to the port with non of the computer systems set up and pure confusion. These concessions were passed three weeks ago and everybody knew that but you . Listen and read before you talk and stop judging from your set in America or wherever.
@ really, de eyes have it and others, is people like you guys that have Dominica backward like that even before Maria. You spoke of the first 3 weeks post Maria and port was very damaged; what about the next 2 months? Do you realize in 10 days time it will be 3 months since Maria? You know how long since Skerrit spoke about duty free concession but did nothing to facilitate it? Do you know how long sing people want to send building material down to repair family house but they were waiting on the said duty free? This is a lazy, clueless, confused, last minute, and corrupt government that talks but does not act. Dominica needs a government that is PROACTIVE to replace that REACTIVE thing we have called government. If they were proactive they knew hurricane was coming and we were in a hurricane season they would have made basic preparation to take care of basic things for at least the first week. But to be in a place like Dominica and not even water was put in place speaks volume
@ De eyes have it I don't know if you ever heard this little proverb. Let me try to say it in creole and then I will tell you what it means in English. "Cana wee ka de shodier bodai noir." In English it simply means the pot is telling the kettle that its bottom dark. the application is, you just confirmed yourself to be foolish, but you calling others foolish lol. Don't you realize is fools like you that have Dominica in this mess way before Maria?
You are wrong, inconsiderate and judgmental. If you have accessed this Website from Day One after DNO Houston commenced posting certain information, you should know that some items were waived. I recall someone commented about it. I replied, "It may be extended." This is what the PM did this time. He extended some of them, as the necessary items. Short memory? When you read and comment remember what was written.
Some of you are so busy being critical and criticizing the PM that you do not appear to read and comprehend what you should. The way you carry-on, it is not fair to the PM. At such a time, he does not need that. His burden to restore D/ca to normalcy and to make Dominicans comfortable is great. Place yourself in his situation.
One day you will pay for your careless words.
There was a time Dominica had no phones. Nationals did without them. This should tell you much. They were friendlier and kinder. These days people have more time for phones/cellulars and not enough time for others. This is a good time to visit your family and neighbors and join them in a good discussion. Appreciate these God-given moments and make the most of them while they last.

Early Dec 2010 I closed down International Schools Island 2 ... for several reasons ... the educational discounts are being withdrawn in 2011 .. and a full SIM will then be over US$3,000 per year.
The other reason was to release some time to extend my explorations of other virtual worlds and other platforms for teaching and learning online .. including webinars and VLEs.

He is humble and willing to be a servant to anyone, not only his so called "master" who he's had buffaloed since the day we met. The only caveat is he must be paid for doing a service unlike when he was "little Norton and not Mr. Norton."
He is good for physical and mental health of MORC employees. When he lies in the hall protecting Mike Tripp, the entire staff and I from any would-be terrorists as a watchdog, passersby have to jump over him, thereby getting some good cardio exercise. "Dead dog in hallways," a top-notch executive and liberator of people has said more than once in silent admiration.
His gentle soul attracts both males and females and I'm sure it lowers their blood pressure when they pet him (even though many with Ph.Ds, M.D.s and Masters degrees have demonstrated any ability to read his vest: "Do not pet me, I am working.") This is his master's weakness for he can't say no to anything that might lift morale. (BTW, Mr. Norton is amazingly gifted at attracting males and females. He can be rented for one hour on any Saturday for $50. His owner (a former mediocre writer of little note) guarantees Mr. Norton will attract a lovely companion for any lonely soul. He plays the field, especially catching yellow tennis balls in the tall grass.
He keeps the MORC grounds free of geese. Well, sort of. H-R Director Mr. Peter Lynch takes him out there and the geese instinctively think Mr. Norton is going to chase and eat them. Highly doubtful. Mr. Norton wouldn't know how to prepare Fois Gras even if his French-Canadian mother gave him the menu in Francais.
Mr. Norton is excellent at working a crowd and taking charge of a situation. Until his owner intervened, Mr. Norton had one big con job going on by stopping at the doors of wonderful people and co-workers and conning them out of a treat, both morning and afternoon. He can get to Marcia Marklin's office in 10 seconds, showing he is an example of how good and valuable it is to be in good aerobic shape.
Mr. Norton keeps vermin and such out of MORC. One day as he was on duty, a mouse ran over him as he lay prone on the floor in the hall. Mr. Norton lifted his head, turned to the right and said to me: "It's only a mouse, why chase him. He's not bothering me." He then resumed his nap. A few weeks later, a mouse ran into his office and then out. Mr. Norton was nearly as fast as a red BMW, galloping down the hall and around the corner after the mouse, finally pinning it against a printer as Melissa climbed on a chair with wheels no less and called for health and safety to rid her office from the mouse. Mr. Norton got bored since the mouse wasn't Mickey and didn't do any tricks and left.
His most outstanding quality is he unconditionally loves everyone. Well, sort of. He loves them unconditionally if he can smell the scent of their pets on their shoes and if they give him a treat. He especially loves Jane and Linda and anyone who will give him a walk.
And, if one really pays attention, Mr. Norton is an example of one who gives unconditional love to anyone. We all can learn from this highly evolved animal who lives to serve (mostly himself and his belly) and an ole guy who uses a wheelchair and just loves riding his handcycle on the track with Mr.Norton by his side, whispering. "Be inspired, ole man, not everyone has equal rights in America, yet and it's your job and those you work with to lead us all to a more humane Mr. Norton-like world.

PropertyofPotter has published an amazing 100 reviews!!! And we look forward to her next 100 reviews!
You can read her 100th review here: Sweet and Simple
To celebrate the occasion, she took a moment and answered a few questions for us and you'll find those below.
How would you say your reviews are different today than when you first started with the site?
- When I first joined the site I had no idea what a decent review contained, and believe it or not, I was very shy about sharing my experiences with others. My first few reviews were lacking so much important information and detail. Now, I try to make sure I include as much detail as possible and include helpful photos as often as possible.
What was your favorite review to write; why?
- There have been a few reviews that just came so naturally to me. I think my favorite would have been writing about the We-Vibe Salsa. It being my favorite (and well used!) toy, the review flowed naturally and was well received. I couldn't believe that the review that came easiest turned into my first Rumble win!
What was your least favorite review to write; why?
- I think my least favorite was on The Perfect Gift Rose set. The fact that it was a kit with several different items contained made it a challange. I still enjoyed writing it, but it was one of the most time consuming reviews I've written so far.
Is there a reviewing style (or reviewer in particular) you admire; why?
- I have a horrible time feeling confident when writing reviews on lingerie (notice how many I've written). I'm not sure what it is about writing them, but I also feel like I'll never remember to include all the information necessary. To the amazing contributors who make lingerie reviews look effortless, I salute you!!
Did you have mentor, who was it? Additionally, are you currently a mentor; what do you love
about it?
- I did have a mentor! sktb0007 was my amazing mentor! I was never told about the mentor program when I started reviewing, I discovered it one day on my own and decided to check it out. I already had items that I was ready to write about, I just needed a mentor. I requested sktb0007 and it seemed like we clicked right away! I was amazed at how she explained things out to me. She did it in such a way that it made perfect sense and was exactly what I needed to hear in order to move forward. Since then, I've tried to constantly grow and advance even further, but I still owe it all to her for telling me exactly what I needed to hear!
I am currently a mentor and have/have had some amazing students! It's brought me so much joy and pride to be able to help others and see them advance the same way I have. My students have all been incredible, and many have gone on to become good friends of mine.
Is there a particular brand you favor more than others; why?
- I'm not someone that grabs every toy from a certain brand. I go after things that appeal to me, no matter what company makes them. I don't think I own many toys from the same company, except maybe Sportsheets. I've gone a little nuts with ticklers over the past year!
If you could go back and rewrite a review, which one would it be?
- Only one? I wish I could go back and rewrite the first SIX review I wrote. Every time I see someone comment on one of those reviews I die a little bit inside! It's embarrassing how poorly they're written, but those first reviews are important! They gave us all a starting point and truly show how far we've each advanced.
How long have you been writing reviews for Eden and how did you become interested in
- The first reviews I wrote for Eden were in November of 2011, but I kind of forgot about the site for a few months (sorry Eden!) and when I started back up, I was more interested in learning about all elements of the site, and didn't start reviewing again until June of 2012. I feel better saying I've been a reviewer since June of 2012 since that was when I truly started regularly writing reviews.
Is there a toy you've been itching to review; what is it?
- There are a few toys I've been interested in obtaining and writing a review on, but it's hard to choose only one toy. I guess would have to say I've had my eye on the G4 Big Boss for a while now. From what I've read it's super powerful (which I need), and it's girthy. I am still in search of the perfect G-spot toy and I'm very interested in finding out if that powerful toy would be enough for me.
What do you think your greatest Eden-related accomplishment (outside of hitting the
milestone itself) is?
- I feel like I sound full of myself, answering all these questions, but that really isn't me. I feel like my greatest accomplishment is watching each of my students progress and grow from our classes together. Nothing shows accomplishment like watching someone you've helped move on to be more successful than they were before.

7 Invoicing Tips That Are Guaranteed Time Savers
March 18, 2011
Freelancers don't want to raise (create) invoices. It's an irritating necessity. It's something we have to do if we want to get paid and that should be the main objective of any professional. While we do have to invoice our clients, there's no reason why it should be such a lengthy task that it interferes with our ability to carry out paid work!
The tips below have been designed to save you time in the invoicing process. Remember, it's not just the time it takes to create and organize your invoices that's important. Perhaps the most crucial thing is making sure that your clients pay when you ask them to, as chasing up late payments – the bane of many a freelancer's life – is the most time-consuming thing of all.
Be Clear About Your Payment Terms
State your invoice payment terms clearly on all invoices and keep them consistent. Make sure you outline your terms to your clients early on in the price negotiation process as this can limit disagreements further down the line. Be perfectly clear about how much you're going to charge up front, how long clients have to pay, and any late payment fees they might suffer.
List acceptable payment methods on your invoices too. If you accept checks – say who checks should be payable to. If you're using FreshBooks and online payment gateway, clients can even pay you online. Express your terms as simply and politely as possible. A happy client is a paying client, after all.
Invoice Little and Often
You might think that it saves time to invoice your clients for one lump sum at the end of a project, but you'd be wrong. Breaking down big fees into more sizable chunks (four payments of $2,500 rather than one payment of $10,000) makes invoices easier for clients to swallow and increases your chances of getting paid promptly. It will really help with your cash flow too. If you're invoicing for a partial payment, make sure you make this clear on the invoice itself.
Itemise Your Invoices
Like the previous point, itemizing your invoices will actually make raising invoices slower, but will save you loads of potentially time-consuming confusion in the long run over what has been paid for and what still needs to be covered in a subsequent invoice. A detailed description of what's covered in the invoice is useful for your own records as well as those of your clients. Nobody likes paying money for no reason. The more clearly you list the reasons for payment, the more likely you are to be paid on time.
Address Problems Quickly
It's vital that you deal with late payments as soon as they arise. In the current economic climate (hopefully passing), you can't be sure that a company which owes you money will still be operational a few months down the line. Don't worry about seeming rude if you contact your client directly. There's usually a good reason why an invoice hasn't been paid and your client will more than likely appreciate the reminder. You should offer to resubmit your invoice (easy with FreshBooks). Always be polite, but be determined.
Remind Clients of Outstanding Payments
Payment reminders will greatly increase the proportion of your invoices that are paid on time. You can do this on the phone, via email or however you feel most comfortable. Online tools like FreshBooks will do this automatically as per your requirements.
Don't nag your clients to death, but sending a reminder a week before payment is due and another on the due date itself is completely reasonable. You might even want to add a 5% or 10% surcharge for late payments. You're well within your rights to do so, so long as it's outlined in your payment terms.
Reduce Your Payment Times
It might seem obvious, but it works – reduce your payment times from 30 days to 21 or even 14 days, creating a sense of urgency, to get paid more quickly and reduce the number of people who forget to pay you. The shorter your billing cycles, the more quickly you can reasonably start reminding clients to pay up.

A boy describes his identity as an Earthling in this clever, enchantingly illustrated picture book by veteran author Weisberg (Talking to the Dead, 2005, etc.) and artist Arnold.
Most people think of the unnamed narrator as a boy and his sister as a girl, "But we're Earthlings," he explains. Grouping himself with other residents of the planet—animals as well as humans—the narrator describes things that make Earth and Earthlings special. Scientific concepts such as gravity, the atmosphere, the water cycle, and general human anatomy are described in dramatically simplified layman's terms. Rather than delve into the science, the narrator skims over the ideas to focus on how some of these things are unique to Earth and how earthlings are "perfectly made" for their environments. The theme underlying the concepts is a little more abstract: "I can't see my own back or face without a mirror, but I can see those of other Earthlings….We can see one another, but we can't directly see our whole selves." Although never stated directly, the philosophical implication that other beings are required for us to truly see ourselves is an interesting one for a picture book aimed at the lower grade school audience. While most of the illustrations focus on the narrator—a small blond boy wearing primary colors—in the final pages, a diverse spread of humans fill the pages, featuring different skin tones, clothing styles, and religious and cultural details, further suggesting that seeing ourselves through diverse eyes helps us better understand who we are; after all, our shared planet is more important than our differences. Arnold's watercolor images are delightful, with nods to space travel and sci-fi at every opportunity (robot toys and rocket ships are typical inclusions). But the premise is almost too clever: since there's no story here, only abstract concepts, some young readers may scratch their heads. "He's an Earthling—so what?" It is not quite detailed enough to please science readers nor direct enough to give an explicit moral. But the quiet, thoughtful tone may well work for others, especially independent readers more interested in questions than answers.
An intriguing picture book with an abstract theme and illustrations that invite young readers to reimagine themselves as citizens of the planet.
