Herding cats might be easier than running a White House communications shop, given that the White House press corp has rediscovered adversarial journalism since Barack Obama left the Oval Office.
Wednesday's news White House Communications Director Hope Hicks will be stepping down from that role has touched off heated speculation over who would be next in line to take over one of the most important — and challenging — jobs in the nation's capital.

I wonder who I should send this 'wise guy' card to…?
You might notice my fancy picture here… look at those pearls and that golden twine (and those pink nails!). Maybe this should say 'wise gal' instead! I was inspired by Yana Smakula (she's amazing!), to grab items from around the house and use them to dress up my pictures. This is my first attempt. I went with some blues, but also tried some black, to see if that made the cards pop more. What do you think?
I used my new owls from Lil' Inker Designs (still love!), along with distressed oxide inks and my Altenew layering stencils. I am practicing my copic coloring and enjoying it more and more. I finally purchased the correct kind of base inks to use with them. I have some more practicing to do.
For the card base, I ran half of each card through with an embossing folder. Hope you enjoy!

Editor's Note: Any reference to TheStreet Ratings and its underlying recommendation does not reflect the opinion of TheStreet, Inc. or any of its contributors including Jim Cramer or Stephanie Link. NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- Wolverine World Wide (NYSE: WWW) has been downgraded by TheStreet Ratings from buy to hold. The company's strengths can be seen in multiple areas, such as its impressive record of earnings per share growth, compelling growth in net income and revenue growth. However, as a counter to these strengths, we also find weaknesses including disappointing return on equity, weak operating cash flow and generally higher debt management risk.
- EXCLUSIVE OFFER: Jim Cramer's Protégé, Dave Peltier, only buys Stocks Under $10 that he thinks could potentially double. See what he's trading today with a 14-day FREE pass.
- WOLVERINE WORLD WIDE reported significant earnings per share improvement in the most recent quarter compared to the same quarter a year ago. The company has demonstrated a pattern of positive earnings per share growth over the past year. We feel that this trend should continue. This trend suggests that the performance of the business is improving. During the past fiscal year, WOLVERINE WORLD WIDE increased its bottom line by earning $1.00 versus $0.82 in the prior year. This year, the market expects an improvement in earnings ($1.63 versus $1.00).
- The net income growth from the same quarter one year ago has significantly exceeded that of the S&P 500 and the Textiles, Apparel & Luxury Goods industry. The net income increased by 54.3% when compared to the same quarter one year prior, rising from -$3.72 million to -$1.70 million.
- Compared to where it was a year ago today, the stock is now trading at a higher level, reflecting both the market's overall trend during that period and the fact that the company's earnings growth has been robust. Looking ahead, the stock's rise over the last year has already helped drive it to a level which is relatively expensive compared to the rest of its industry, implying reduced upside potential.
- The debt-to-equity ratio of 1.37 is relatively high when compared with the industry average, suggesting a need for better debt level management. Regardless of the company's weak debt-to-equity ratio, WWW has managed to keep a strong quick ratio of 1.86, which demonstrates the ability to cover short-term cash needs.
- The company's current return on equity has slightly decreased from the same quarter one year prior. This implies a minor weakness in the organization. In comparison to the other companies in the Textiles, Apparel & Luxury Goods industry and the overall market, WOLVERINE WORLD WIDE's return on equity is significantly below that of the industry average and is below that of the S&P 500.

((Wayne Cox continued from Hypotenuse Murder Mystery Case))
Wayne was lazy. So he surprised even himself when he showed up early to the party, his hands in his pockets and his hair still mostly a mess.
He'd heard about the party from a friend of a friend. He wasn't typically in the know, and he didn't usually care to be. It had just happened to slip through the cracks of his ignorance - and now he was here, standing, as casually as he could, considering how to introduce himself to the host.
She was a junior, he was pretty sure, and he was a senior - the age gap between years had always seemed pretty big to him, like the difference between grades in elementary or middle school. Maybe he was overthinking things. His reason for being here wasn't complicated, after all. He didn't have a date, and he wasn't much for dances, date or not.
In the end, he just walked up to where she was sitting.
"Nice campfire," he said. "Expecting this thing to be big?"

Wayne idly scratched at his arm. The answer to his question had mostly resolved itself before the girl answered, in the form of Darius arriving. As far as he knew, all three of them didn't know each other that well. Meant that the party was catching a pretty wide net of people. Her answer only served to confirm it. She hadn't offered her name, but then again, he hadn't offered his.
In any case, it was probably best to end the conversation as quickly as he could, so that he didn't monopolize her time - especially when people she actually knew did show up. He wasn't going to get all hurried about it, though, even if his mind was skipping around, considering all the possible things he could say or do, considering all the people that might arrive that he'd actually recognize. It was a casual party. He could act casual just fine.
"Seems like it's starting to get more crowded, anyway, so that's probably a good sign," he said. "Thanks for setting this up and all." He jerked his thumb over his shoulder, towards the table. "Gonna go check out the food."
He gave her a nod, gave Darius a nod as well, then wandered off. He'd probably actually sit down on a log and enjoy the campfire once it got a bit colder, but for now, he was content with leaning on the table, cracking open the cooler, and taking a peek at the hot dogs inside.
Maybe once he got in a couple more conversations and had a little to eat, he'd forget about the school project he'd put off for later. That, at least, wasn't a surprise. It was the only reason he'd shown up early.

Wayne wasn't really thinking about alcohol too much. He was aware of the food in front of him. He was aware of the booze that Junko had hinted at. He was also aware that if he had an addiction, a more acceptable guilty pleasure, it was video games, not booze. There weren't any here, though, which was probably for the better; this time, he'd escaped somewhere more social.
Granted, it wasn't particularly social by the hot dogs.
Taking a glance back towards the fire, he saw that someone else had arrived. Raina. He'd heard her name once or twice. She wasn't in his year, either, but she was distinguishable, hair and all. Not someone too easily forgotten.
His attention went back to the cooler, and the many hot dogs stacked on top of each other inside. Grilling them would give him something to do. The only question left was how to do it - and if he was feeling particularly honest with himself, he'd never had much motivation to learn how to cook. Maybe he'd ask Eve to teach him a few recipes the next time she wasn't burnt out from work. Maybe not. Anyway, it couldn't be hard. Nothing to panic or worry over. There had to be a public grill around here, and he could just add some charcoal or some gas or something-
Hold on. He was being an idiot.
"Hey!" he said, voice carrying over towards the others and the very obvious campfire. "You have anything to skewer these hot dogs on, or should I just grab a stick?"

"You two act like kids, you know that?"
Christ. At least the godawful puns were taking his mind off of things. Wayne shook his head, and glanced over at the two additional juniors who had popped out of the woodwork. "Wayne. As you've heard."
Having spotted the skewers from another look at the table, he grabbed one and speared a hot dog, then handed it over to the junior guy who'd asked him his name.
Now, Raina. He was... probably imagining things based on how she was looking at him, but in any case, he didn't mind grabbing an extra beer with the rest. Wayne took two more skewered hot dogs with one hand and a beer with the other. There was a brief moment where he considered lobbing it at her underhanded after taking a few steps closer - it'd save him the trouble of carrying it over, at least - but then he decided against it. Sure, she'd told him to toss her one. If she'd actually wanted her alcohol shaken, though, she'd probably have asked.
Instead, he just headed over and plopped down on a log near her, offering her the beer. He'd get his own later. Fiyori had shown up at this point, too. Maybe she'd distract Darius for a while, stem the flow of puns that actually probably constituted valid punishment.
"You want a hot dog, too?" he said, shifting his grip on the skewers. "I didn't think I'd be serving everybody all of a sudden."
The Present
The Past
|Mar 19 2016, 01:57 PM Post #5
"Sure," he said, handing Raina one of the hot dog skewers. "Thanks. Could go get more, if you actually wanted to cook some for the jokesters."
"I think they've probably got it covered by now, though." Wayne took a glance over his shoulder at the host. He still couldn't remember her name, which was pretty dumb because his friend of a friend had almost definitely mentioned it in connection with the party, but she seemed to be heading towards the hot dogs as well. That left just Fiyori and Darius in the lurch.
Darius was probably keeping at his puns in the background sans accomplice - Wayne hadn't bothered to pay any more attention to him for now - but upon reconsideration, he wasn't that bad. Wayne figured no insinuations about his mom's private life had been made yet, which was more than could be said for the online multiplayer experience if he'd stayed home and played video games. A bit of an exaggeration there, but still occasionally all too valid. It was the worst during summer vacation. Too many kids with too much time on their hands. Just another thing to look forward to in the future aside from job-searching.
He didn't really want to think all that much about that, so he just shrugged and placed his hot dog on the grill, turning it using the skewer every now and then.
"You usually more of a fan of this kind of thing than dances?"

|Apr 1 2016, 06:04 PM Post #6
Wayne furrowed his brow. "Space, right?"
Further thoughts about the theme of the dance were interrupted by him almost snorting at what Raina said next. As it was, he allowed himself a chuckle and refrained from accidentally burning his hot dog with an overenthusiastic response.
"Nah. Nothing like that. I just-"
Then Darius happened.
Wayne couldn't help but stare, silenced, one eyebrow lifted and frozen in place. There were so many questions he wanted to ask, not that the answers were likely to help. Where did "schizo" even come from? What in the world was Darius singing? Was Darius completely drunk off his ass already, like the host was implying? (Junko. What a time to remember her name.)
Was it legitimate to feel embarrassment for Darius when he clearly felt none for himself?
Wayne wasn't even annoyed. Baffled, more like. With some difficulty, he turned his attention back to Raina, incredulous expression still mostly stuck on his face. "...I just chose to come and deal with this, apparently."

|Apr 19 2016, 02:36 PM Post #7
Wayne had been getting mixed signals - were they ignoring Darius or shoving hot dogs into his various orifices?
But it was soon clear enough that the answer was neither, and that the situation had gotten far more out of hand than he'd expected.
He didn't have to do anything about that. He really didn't. He wasn't involved. He'd just happened to be sitting there. It wasn't like he'd ever done anything worthwhile for anyone, least of all himself, so he damn sure didn't have to do anything now.
Let someone else handle it. Someone like Jonathan or Michael, both crowding around Darius, holding his shoulders, restraining, comforting, trying to calm him down. Someone like Junko, who was the host, whose responsibility it was to get the party under control. She was already doing so.
It didn't feel right, though. Perhaps it was that or just instinct that pulled Wayne to his feet, regret already urging him back down again as soon as he stood. He wasn't needed. Darius was taken care of. Raina was doing fine by herself, for a certain definition of fine that included throwing shit in people's faces for admittedly justified reasons - not to mention that she could have seriously hurt herself on the skewer that Fiyori had just handed her, falling like that. Darius couldn't have known, probably hadn't thought about or predicted her reaction considering he was as drunk as he was. But he had put Astrid's eye out in fourth grade doing something without thinking. That hadn't been malicious, either. This could have turned out the same way. It was a train of thought best forgotten.
Wayne took a step towards Raina, hand reaching out towards her upper arm - as if she would want to be touched again immediately after that. No. If he was going to insist on fucking up the situation and making it worse, better that it be unintentional. He retracted his hand before he made contact. Just stood next to her.
"You okay?" he asked, keeping his voice calm, steady. It was something that he was used to doing, and even now it was less for her benefit but instead to soothe his own nerves. "Come on. I can get you another beer - or we can take a walk somewhere else for a while, I guess." He scratched the back of his head. "I'm sort of put off alcohol now, anyways."

Wayne simply shrugged.
He wasn't certain of what he expected to come next. He'd been thinking in short term plans. Getting Raina and Darius apart. Calming down the party a bit. Doing something instead of nothing of worth. Done, done, and done, though his contribution on all three counts had been mediocre at best. He had barely noticed the two new arrivals as he and Raina left.
Now that the two of them were out here, away from the main event, the silence stretching... he was unsure. Give him a basketball, give him a game controller, give him a pixelated rifle in a numbers war. Give him something to do, and he could lose himself in it. Even bonding with others happened just like that; doing things together built trust and familiarity. This was different. He wasn't uncomfortable holding up his end of conversations, but he never truly knew where they led or where they were meant to go. She could start ranting about Darius - she could refuse to speak about Darius at all. Wayne didn't know.
He moved towards the bench, his eyes on Raina. He'd done this for his own benefit at first, to keep from doing nothing, but now he supposed he was out here for hers, too. He didn't feel it right to be the one to break the silence.

"Yeah," Wayne said, then halfheartedly parroted something she'd said earlier. "Not living up to expectations all around."
So they were going back to talking about Sadies. Some sort of common ground. Raina was making it obvious she wasn't enjoying herself, but what was he to do but nod and agree? Perhaps someone better suited for this would have known. Someone who would have made this situation something other than two strangers sitting on a bench.
He glanced over at her, then followed her gaze upwards.
The truth be told, he doubted Sadies would have been any better for him. On Raina's part, he could see it. She'd probably have gone with a purpose in mind, and maybe she would have had a better time of it there than here with Darius and burnt hotdogs and spilled beer.
"What sort of thing were you looking for tonight, anyway?"
The Present
The Past
|Jul 31 2016, 03:22 PM Post #10
Any attempt of his at finding anything of significance in the night sky was interrupted by Raina's response and the shifting of weight on the bench.
Wayne shot her a questioning look.
"Sure," he said. "Did you walk here or something?"
His car wasn't a topic that came up often. Most of the time, it wasn't his at all - just a bucket of bolts that Eve complained about whenever she drove it home from work. It had problems going up hills, but it was a necessity, it worked about as well as could be expected for the price that his family had gotten it for, and it was comfortable. After a few years of her using it, the inside did sort of smell like Eve, but that was something else entirely.
It wasn't the kind of car that he could have ever used to pick up girls. But he supposed it could drop them off.
He made to stand, a quiet creak coming from the bench as he did so.
"Guess it doesn't really matter. I can give you a ride if you want."
The Present
The Past
|Jul 31 2016, 05:08 PM Post #11
Well, he was being dragged. That was something he hadn't expected.
Raina was just using him for his car, wasn't she? The thought came to him, sarcastic, hiding any real concern away to be forgotten. Still, even if it was true - even if he believed it was true - he didn't mind.
Adventure, she'd said. It was a different frame of mind than he was used to. They weren't running away from the party, from Darius or whatever else. That wasn't the focus. She knew where she was heading next. She knew what she wanted. He could appreciate that.
But maybe he was just projecting.
Wayne gave her a brief smile back, and began walking towards his car.
Adventure it was, then.

I joined a Timber Frame group on Linkedin and thought I would post some pictures of the timber trusses of our roof in the attic. When we insulated and dry-walled this space the plan was to leave as much of the beams visible as possible. I think anyone who appreciates the "timber frame" whether the whole house or just the roof trusses will enjoy these pictures.
In Paris the Musée Cognacq-Jay is a must see for the timber frame enthusiast. It is a museum of 18th century art and is housed in the Hotel Donon in the Marais district (google it for more info if you like). The reason I mention this museum is that the original roof timbers of the Hotel are visible from the attic storey and are remarkable and documented as some of the best beams in Paris. So, stop by and see this museum (even if you aren't an art enthusiast), the walk to the attic is worth it.

MB0044 : Define project cycle, project management, and scope of project. List the various project management knowledge areas? What are the reasons for failure of a project?
Posted September 19, 2011on:
MB0044 : Define project cycle, project management, and scope of project. List the various project management knowledge areas? What are the reasons for failure of a project?
Answer: – Project cycle
A project cycle consists of the various activities of operations, resources, and the limitations imposed on them.
Project management:-
It is the discipline of planning, organizing, securing, and managing resources to achieve specific goals. A project is a temporary endeavour with a defined beginning and end (usually time-constrained, and often constrained by funding or deliverables), undertaken to meet unique goals and objectives, typically to bring about beneficial change or added value. The temporary nature of projects stands in contrast with business as usual (or operations), which are repetitive permanent, or semi-permanent functional activities to produce products or services. In practice, the management of these two systems is often quite different, and as such requires the development of distinct technical skills and management strategies.
Project Scope:-
The project scope is the definition of what the project is supposed to accomplish and the budget of both time and money that has been created to achieve these objectives.
Best results are achieved when both the definition and the budget are precise and detailed. A good project scope document defines specifically what tasks are to be performed or results delivered. It defines the specific date when these deliverables are due and lists the budget allocated for them.
Project management knowledge areas
The knowledge areas of project management are the following:
· Project integration management, cost management, communications management
· Project scope management, quality management, risk management
· Project time management, human management, procurement management
For a project to be successful, it is necessary to understand its relationship with other management disciplines. Other management supporting disciplines are business legal issues, strategic planning, logistics, human resource management, and domain knowledge.
Project failure
A project may fail because of one or more of the following reasons:
· Incidence of project failure
· Factors contributing to project success not emphasised
· Overview of Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) projects
· Common problems encountered during projects
The reasons for the failure of a project in detail:-
Incidence of project failure: The incidents of project failure are due to following reasons:
- Projects being initiated at random at all levels
- Project objective not in line with business objective
- Project management not observed
- Project manager with no prior experience in the related project
- Non-dedicated team
- Lack of complete support from clients
Factors contributing to project success not emphasised:
- Project objective in alignment with business objective
- Working within the framework of project management methodology
- Effective scoping, planning, estimation, execution, controls and reviews, closure intertwined with quality
- Proactive approach towards project bottlenecks
- Communication and managing expectations effectively with clients, team members, and stake holders
- Prior experience of project manager in a similar project
Overview of Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) projects:
- Involve information and communications technologies such as the World Wide Web, e-mail, fiber-optics, and satellites
- Enable societies to produce, access, adapt and apply information in greater amounts, more rapidly and at reduced costs
- Offer enormous opportunities for enhancing business and economic viability
Common problems encountered during projects:
- No prioritisation of project activity from an organisational position
- One or more of the stages in the project mishandled
- Less qualified/non-dedicated manpower
- Absence of smooth flow of communication between the involved parties.

Prime Minister Saad Hariri and ex-minister Ashraf Rifi traded tirades Sunday in connection with the heated electoral battle in the northern city of Tripoli.
"Talking about disloyalty, we cannot forget the world champion who is writing reports against us and accusing us of treason and in the end he says that he is fighting Hizbullah," Hariri said at a Tripoli rally to announce al-Mustaqbal Movement's candidates for the Tripoli-Minieh-Dinniyeh district.
"We, al-Mustaqbal Movement, have lists in almost all of Lebanon against Hizbullah, from Shebaa to Sidon, from North Bekaa to West Bekaa, and from Zahle to Beirut and the North. We have candidates who are in direct confrontation with candidates from Hizbullah and lists supported by Hizbullah," Hariri said.
"If you are against Hizbullah, why are all your lists confronting the lists of the al-Mustaqbal Movement?" Hariri added, addressing Rifi without naming him.
"If I am confronting Hizbullah, Hizbullah is attacking me, and you have nothing else to do except attacking me, what does this mean?" the premier went on to say.
Rifi was quick to hit back via Twitter.
"I call on PM Hariri to honor his stances by resigning from Hizbullah's government, removing the Syrian regime's cronies from his lists and turning his electoral rhetoric in Tripoli and Akkar into a political rhetoric against Hizbullah's project in Beirut," Rifi said.
"Loyalty to individuals is slavery and clientelism, seeing as they are humans who err and succeed," Rifi added.
"We are the loyal ones who are free in our loyalty to our approach, beliefs and the cause of the martyrs, whereas those who have surrendered to the mini-state (of Hizbullah) do not have the right to call on others to also surrender," the former minister emhpasized.

Get Jennifer Lopez's Toned Butt — Here's Her 20 Minute Workout To Get A Tight Booty
Jennifer Lopez is in the middle of her Las Vegas Residency and thousands of fans get to see her incredible body on stage almost every night! We have workout tips from her personal trainer for you to get a similar booty this summer!
Jennifer Lopez, 46, and her famous derriere have been #goals for nearly two decades! Her toned butt even gave her a hit song: Booty! Find out how she keeps her curvy shape and how you can tone up for summer in just a few minutes a day right here!
Read the following tips from trainer David Kirsch, who has worked with J-Lo as well as other stars like Kate Upton and Heidi Klum.
"For best results when doing exercise centered around your lower body, put your brain in your butt! To shape a better butt, place the focus and energy there and not in your quadriceps, lower back, or knees," David says.
Platypus walks:
"This is one of my favorite signature moves. You may look and feel silly while doing it, but if you nail the form, you will target your inner thighs and the lower half of your butt.
1. Start in a plié squat position with your hands on your hips and your thighs parallel to the floor.
2. Stay engaged in the plié squat as you waddle forward, stepping the left foot in front of the right, then the right foot in front of the left. Keep your knees out and aligned with your toes, your weight on your heels, and your butt sticking down and out throughout the exercise. Take five total steps forward, then reverse. That's one rep. Repeat five times."
Jennifer Lopez's Butt Workout — Exercise Tips From Her Trainer
Reverse Crossover Lunge to Lateral Lunge:
"1. Stand with your feet shoulder-width apart and your hands on your hips. Step your right leg back and behind your left leg and lunge, almost as if curtsying.
2. Reverse to return to the starting position.
3. Step your right leg out to the side laterally, without pausing. Step into your right heel, keeping the right knee aligned with the heel. Your anchor leg should be in a ninety-degree angle. Keep your hips, heels, and knees forward and aligned. Repeat, but step your left leg back. That's one rep. Perform fifteen reps (or fifteen lunges on each side)."
Single Leg Deadlifts:
"Tone and sculpt your inner thighs while shaping your butt with this balance-challenging exercise.
1. Start with your feet shoulder-width apart (1a). Balancing on your right leg, bend at the waist and reach your left hand down to your right foot (1b); extend your left leg straight behind you (1c).
2. Keep both hips square (i.e., facing down) during the movement. Return to the starting position. That's one rep. Perform fifteen repetitions on each leg."
Switch Lunges:
"This challenging plyometric exercise is sure to blast your legs and glutes, while revving up your heart rate and boosting your metabolism.
1. Stand with your feet under your hips. Take a large step forward with your right foot. Sink down into a lunge, forming right angles with both legs.
2. Spring upward, launching both feet off the floor, and switch positions with your legs so your left foot is in front and your right leg is behind. Land and sink down into another lunge. Alternate your legs, completing fifteen repetitions on each side."
Sumo Lunge to a Side Kick with a Squat Jump:
"This is probably one of my most well-known (and challenging) exercises. It's martial arts plus plyometrics and it equals a total thigh, hips, and butt blast. Here's how it works:
1. Stand in a "sumo" position with your feet slightly wider than shoulder-width apart, knees bent, and body weight over your heels.
2. Take a large step sideways with your right leg, bringing your right knee in toward your chest and then over to the right (2a) in one continuous movement.
3. As soon as your right foot touches the ground, bring your knee back into your chest and complete a side kick, kicking your right heel out to the side.
4. Lower your right leg to the floor, returning to sumo position. Squat down while keeping the weight in your heels and stick out your butt. Keep your knees directly above — not in front of — your toes.
5. Spring up while thrusting your arms overhead. Land on your heels, rolling forward onto your toes. Repeat with a sumo lunge and side kick with your left leg and another squat jump. Continue alternating right and left until you have completed fifteen lunges on each side and thirty squat jumps."
Are you going to do this workout for a high, tight butt like J-Lo?

A nation on the brink of war.
A conspiracy that threatens the globe.
And one military family, caught in the middle, fighting for freedom.
From a secretive jungle-covered island in the Pacific, to the sands of the Middle East. From the smog-filled alleyways of China, to the passageways of a US Navy destroyer. The War Planners series follows different members of the military and intelligence community as they uncover a Chinese plot to attack America.
Each member of the Manning family has a critical role to play. Technologist David Manning is taken from his family's home and thrown onto a special CIA task force. Ex-SEAL Chase Manning is sent to team up with a Marine Corps special operations unit. Admiral Charles Manning leads a US Carrier Strike Group, filled with America's latest and greatest naval technology. And Lieutenant Commander Victoria Manning is the officer in charge of a helicopter detachment on the navy destroyer, the USS Farragut – the only ship that stands in the way of a Chinese onslaught.
Reviewers are raving:
"This is one of the best war series books I have read in years."
"If you like Brad Thor, Tom Clancy, Brad Taylor, Rick Campbell, et al, you should enjoy this series. Andrew Watts is ex-Navy, a former helicopter pilot, and his military experience really adds a lot to the books."

text: What is the intimate nature of thanking / replying while speaking? Of course we do it all the day but I guess few are really aware of what is really going on under their words. I guess I have to explain with an italian comparison, since the english version of the replying isn't enough revealing. When saying "Grazie" / "Thank you" / "Thanks" etc. we are effectively saying: " (I pray because God gives you)THANKS" (that is: good things, things you could need), and this was a very common salutation/wishing form in the far past under Latins and Greeks, even if the "goddess" could be very different from what we are used to think of. And here comes the trick. In English you have: "You are welcome", that, even if it's kind, doesn't tell you all the truth. The older form, still remained in Italian, is "PREGO", which means "(I) PRAY (God for your kindness too). " - Prego = I pray Just to play with words.. Have you ever thought on what "Mediterranean Sea" means? Even if it's a latin derived word, I got it more clearly by seeing it in the German form "MITTELLANDER SEE" = "The sea which lies in the middle of the (known) lands"

How to start your own (for-profit) business:
1. Pick a Name!
-Is your awesome name avail? Check.
heres AZ's
*dont reserve the name before u file. waste of money
2. Incorporate
– Pick a state to incorporate in. This doesn't need to be the same state you're gonna do business in, but generally u need a "resident agent", a rep/address, in that state. Some states have certain benefits they give you for incorporating in their state, u have to do some research to find out what they are. but for a small biz it's not really that important right now. (when/if u get bigger u can incorporate in that state under a new biz name etc)
– Type of corporation. u have to pick a type of corporate ur gonna be.. here are some of the advantages/disadvantages of each one:
LLC: "Limited Liability Corporation/Company". this is prob what ur gonna wanna do. this means that u have limited liability. so, for example, someone sues ur company, they cant take all ur personal shit. hence, LIMITED liability. Instead of an owner ur called a member (same thin tho).
LLP: "Limited Liabilty Partnership". This is like an llc except its a 'partnership'. and its usually used with professionals like lawyers or medical field. once again it helps them in the liability aspect (being sued and stuff)
Limited Liabilites (both types) u don't get 'double' taxed (corporation and shareholder tax) when u do get that taxing as a normal 'c' corporation. Since u r a member u get protection if something ends up fucked up like ur company doesn't pay taxes, it goes bankrupt, etc.ur company has to pay but generally ur safe (they cant take ur shit).
"C" Corporations: "General Corporations". This is the older more general type of corporation. u are an owner and u can get some easier benefits like stocks and stuff (u don't get stock option in LLCs). but u get taxed more and are more liable.
SO If ur gonna have a few owners or even one, whatever, the LLC is a better option. general corporations are cool too but u gotta pay more taxes, and thats if u get more investors in ur corp. LLCs are generally the way to go.
-Actually incorporating. So u decided wat type ur gonna do. nowadays u can generally incorp. online! So im just gonna use AZ and NV as examples.
To incorp u generally go to the Secretary of State page for your state!
AZ's: http://www.azcc.gov/Divisions/Corporations/filings/forms/index.asp
NV's: http://secretaryofstate.biz/business/forms/all.asp
NV's site is easier to navigate thru so I'll use that to guide u. Say u wanna do an LLC, use this form (NV)
http://secretaryofstate.biz/business/forms/pdf/NRS86FormDomesticpk.pdf (PDF)
Just fill out the form. Since this is ur initial filing, u gotta pay more, of course. So u gotta pay:
125$ Inital List of Managers
75$ Articles of organization
not bad tho for startin ur own biz. so remember if u do outta state, then u gotta use someone address there, and it's just to start, after u incorp u can change the delivery address to ur out of state house. tho ur still supposed to have an address in that state. can't be PO box tho 😦 so u gotta have/know some that lives there, or use a 'resident agent' which is basically some dude who gets paid for u using his/her address lol.
AZ: LLC form:
Arizona is kinda tacky lol. In AZ u gotta publish ur filing in the newspaper within 60 days of filing. here's the list of where u need to publish depending on where your going to work.
50$ Inital fee
-Where u file doesn't matter THAT much. There are benefits to filing in different states but even if u file in NY u can do biz in AZ (u need to file for a tradename/doing business as (DBA) or register with the state but u still can do it. and the fee is like 10 bucks, if that)
-Get Copies of ur Initial Filings! Congrats u just made a bidniz! lol :]
Starting something? this is a really good site to check out: http://www.azcommerce.com/BusAsst/SmallBiz/
If you have any questions ask me! oh yea im NOT a lawyer, dont sue me. lol.

(I couldn't find one for why inc. in AZ)
A limited liability company ("LLC") is as a legal entity that is a hybrid between a partnership and a corporation. The owners (called "members") have many of the same tax benefits as a partnership, while at the same time being able to take advantage of the limited liability characteristics of a corporation ).
Unless the members elect to be taxed as a corporation, the tax treatment of a properly organized LLC is very similar to that of a partnership or sole proprietorship. Profits and losses are passed through to the members of the LLC and there is no income tax at the business level.
Like a corporation, the members of an LLC are generally shielded from personal liability for the debts and obligations of the company.
You form an LLC by filing a "certificate of formation" or similar certificate with the Secretary of State. Members of LLCs typically enter into an "operating agreement" that establishes how the LLC is run.
Many of the provisions of an LLC operating agreement are similar to those contained in a typical partnership agreement. For example, the operating agreement usually contains a "buy-sell" agreement governing how and to whom you can transfer membership interests in the LLC.
Generally, LLCs may have an unlimited number of owners and there are no restrictions on the type of persons who may be owners. Some states require that an LLC have at least two owners.
One advantage of an LLC over a corporation is that there is more flexibility in management. For example, an LLC may be managed in the following ways:
- Solely by its members
- By its members and a management committee serving in a function similar to the board of directors of a corporation or
- By its members, a management committee, and officers
It may be possible to achieve many of the same benefits of an LLC through use of an S corporation. However, an LLC may afford the additional benefit of being able to provide for allocations of profits, losses and distributions disproportionate to the percentage of equity interest held in the LLC. And the shareholders of an S corporation must usually be individuals and cannot exceed 75 in number. LLCs may not be subject to the same limitations.
An LLC may have more than one class of equity interest, as well as wholly owned subsidiaries whose assets, liabilities, and operating results will be treated independently from those of its LLC parent. In contrast, an S corporation can have only one class of stock.
You can use the LLC form of conducting business without worrying about raising capital in offerings of the company's securities, because of the protection against liability given to equity holders and the ability to freely transfer equity interests.
Because an LLC combines the protection from personal liability of a corporation with the tax advantages and managerial flexibility of a partnership, it is oftentimes the entity of choice for many new businesses.
From a practical standpoint, though, there is the potential drawback that LLCs have not been around as long as corporations and so people who you will have to work with may not be as familiar with them (for example, bankers, insurance agents, CPA's and, yes, even lawyers).
Many states now permit professionals to operate their practices through LLCs or limited liability entities, which are sometimes called "limited liability partnerships."
A limited liability partnership ("LLP") is essentially the same thing as a limited liability company ("LLC"), except that an LLP is specifically designed for use by certain professions (for example, accountants, lawyers or architects).
Generally the partners in limited liability partnerships aren't responsible for the debts, obligations, or liabilities of the partnership resulting from negligence, malpractice or wrongful acts, or misconduct by another partner, employee or agent of the partnership.
Professional organizations (such as accounting and law firms) generally prefer limited liability partnerships because they are specifically designed to limit malpractice claims against partners not involved in the malpractice. But a partner of a limited liability partnership is liable for other partnership debts and obligations as well as for their own negligence, malpractice or wrongful acts, or misconduct, and that of any person under their direct supervision and control.
Limited liability partnerships are formed by either:
- filing a certificate with the Secretary of State or
- filing a certificate to convert an existing general partnership to a limited liability partnership
limited liability="" partnerships="" are="">run like general partnerships and have a similar degree of management flexibility. Income, losses and gains are passed through to the general partners according to the partnership agreement.
If there is no partnership agreement, income, losses and gains will be allocated in proportion to the partnership interests of each partner. Partners can agree among themselves as to how income, losses, and gains are divided among the partners. The partners then report the amount allocated on their own income tax returns and pay tax accordingly.

Teetering life on the violent edge of the world,
Menaces with folklores that cast a chill on the most avid nerds.
A young lass, amassing the cocoon strands,
Falls prey to thou lores; and embellishes the silky floral band.
She'll adorn it on the day she gets hitched,
Hoping with the knot, her broken pieces too get fixed.
Draped from head to toe,
In a burgundy gown and unsoiled stiletto.
She creeped for her post marital dinner date,
Into the dreadfulness; wincing in silence how destiny switches fate!
Cognizing now on the edge of the bed,
How much during the night she bled.
Cries foul over why she was only undressed,
And why there's no ritual of helping each other redress!
More broken than ever; she feels,
What a fool she was who looked for salvation in those brittle reels.
After sobbing for long; in excruciating pain,
She summons herself to wash those stains.
Years later, "Oh! What a bait marriage is"; she exclaims,
Straying one away from the thrust is all it does, she claims.
It enunciates like a dream with profound glory,
But quips in the name of regret as an unsaid story.
Teetering life on the violent edge of the world,
Menaces with folklores that cast a chill on the most avid nerds.

Depression and this Writer
October 14, 2008 Leave a comment
I never thought I would fall into this state of mind but it happened. I was depressed and this was the reason I had turned cold towards my writing. I did not know it was depression and instead blamed other factors such as work, commitments and people as the reason to why I couldn't sit down long enough to write a sentence. Yes, within the period of depressive foggy-ness, I did managed to churn out several short stories (most appearing on this blog) but my main project merely sat on the sideline.
Depression hits for no reason and your mind just fogs over and your motivation to do the things you love just evaporates, leaving you with this perpetual sense of emptiness. In the end, you feel as if you are merely a shell and life has ebbed it's way to the twilight zone. Nothing seems right, you become sensitive and needy. Needy for attention or someone to understand but you full well know no-one can fully understand the state of mind of a depressive person. My mind and heart were locked in a bind of negativity. Nothing seemed positive and optimism became a curse word.
There were evenings I spent walking in my backyard, devoid of thoughts and merely walking. I viewed things with an emptiness, a detachment from what was real or fantasy. In this state, plants looked alive and the world just seemed a shade of gray. It was bad.
Yet, I knew all this and I am glad I had friends I could just talk to. People I could open up to and vent. And I also had my writing. I realized the most passionate of my writings were done when I was in this state of clawing myself out of my emotional black-hole. The stories were real and the emotions raw. Sometimes our very weakness is the source of our greatest strength. Our insanity is the root of our creativity, the source of the logic for which we write about and our readers get transported to.
In my depression, I wrote about the need for love, the strength of hope and the desperation of one who has reached their end. Maybe it's good for me to walk in that dark alley called depression, if only to gain the stories but not to dwell in it.
Am I out of my depression? I don't know because its a part of me, yet I know I can keep it in check and continue to write with passion due to it.

Michael Sassano turned his knack for mutual fund market-timing into a $10 million-a-year business for himself, people who know him say, and now federal regulators are broadening their scrutiny of the Oppenheimer & Co. ( OPY) stockbroker. In his best years, Sassano's annual trading commissions routinely exceeded $10 million and sometimes approached $15 million, according to people familiar with the 33-year-old broker. The money helped pay for a lavish lifestyle that included a villa in St. Tropez, where Sassano frequently vacations. To put Sassano's riches in perspective, the notorious group of former Prudential Securities brokers facing civil fraud charges raked in about $3 million in commissions from all of their market-timing activities put together, according to regulators. "A broker doing $10 million in commissions is phenomenal," said Jonathan Kord Lagemann, a securities attorney and a former general counsel for a brokerage firm. While it's not known what percentage of Sassano's commissions came from market-timing, at least one person estimated that just over half came from placing such trades for his long list of hedge fund customers. Market-timing is the term for a legal but strongly discouraged trading strategy in which mutual fund shares are bought and sold frequently in order to capitalize on price discrepancies in different markets. The rapid-fire trading is harmful for the vast majority of mutual fund investors because it can dilute the value of a fund by driving up trading and administrative costs. Most fund companies disclose in their prospectuses that they try to ferret out and stop market-timers. But investigators have found that far too many fund companies were willing to bend or ignore those rules when it came to a privileged group of hedge funds and their brokers. In a few instances, such as the former Prudential group in Boston, brokers have been charged with fraud in the burgeoning investigation into the $7 trillion mutual fund industry. (Prudential Securities is jointly owned by Wachovia ( WB) and Prudential Financial ( PRU)).
To date, Sassano has not been charged with any wrongdoing in the mutual fund investigation. At Oppenheimer, he continues to work, unlike dozens of other former brokers who were caught up in the scandal at A.G. Edwards ( AGE), Bear Stearns ( BSC), KeyCorp's ( KEY) McDonald Investments and Merrill Lynch ( MER). (Oppenheimer & Co. is unrelated to OppenheimerFunds.) But securities regulators are taking a close look at the broker because of his reputation on Wall Street as someone with a big list of market-timing customers and his ties to other brokers implicated in the scandal. New York Attorney General Eliot Spitzer's office
has subpoenaed records from Oppenheimer to learn more about how Sassano carved out his lucrative niche putting fast money together with mutual funds that could be market-timed. Investigators at the NASD also recently questioned a former A.G. Edwards broker in Boston about market-timing trades he allegedly made for Atlantique Capital Advisors, a defunct $200 million hedge fund that Sassano invested in and helped organize. Additionally, TheStreet.com has learned that the Securities and Exchange Commission has asked a number of mutual fund companies to scour their internal emails for any references to Sassano and his hedge fund clientele as part of its investigation. Sassano could not be reached for comment. His attorney, Ira Lee Sorkin, a noted white-collar criminal defense lawyer, declined to comment. Spitzer's office and the SEC declined to comment. Sources familiar with Sassano, including one of his customers, said the broker had arrangements with several mutual fund companies, including Sun Life Financial's ( SLF) MFS Funds and Kinetics Mutual. Sources said he conducted market-timing strategies in JW Seligman funds but without an arrangement with the fund manager. Officials with all three fund companies declined to comment. But all three funds have acknowledged permitting some customers to engage in market-timing in the past.
MFS, for instance, has said it expects to be charged by regulators for permitting hedge funds to market-time its funds and is trying to negotiate a settlement. In November, a source said lawyers from the SEC interviewed several Kinetics Mutual officials about the firm's decision to permit some big-money customers and their brokers, including Sassano, to engage in market-timing. Sassano's defenders said the broker did nothing wrong and had permission from the fund companies to market-time. Additionally, they said his supervisors at CIBC Oppenheimer and later Oppenheimer were well aware of his market-timing trades. Regulators, meanwhile, believe Sassano's market-timing business was so lucrative that he occasionally referred some of his hedge fund customers to other market-timing brokers. Massachusetts regulators contend that Sassano, while working at CIBC Oppenheimer, referred two of his hedge fund customers -- Chronos Asset Management and Head Start Advisors -- to former Prudential broker Martin Druffner, who was a college friend of Sassano's. Druffner is one of seven former Prudential brokers charged by regulators with using deception to hide their identities and make hundreds of market-timing trades on behalf of their hedge fund customers. More recently, Spitzer and the SEC have begun looking into some of the financing arrangements for the hedge funds Sassano worked with when he was a broker at CIBC Oppenheimer. Regulators are looking into whether CIBC, a division of Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce ( BCM), structured derivatives trades that enabled the hedge funds to leverage themselves and make bigger market-timing bets than they normally would have been able to under traditional borrowing guidelines. A source familiar with the investigation said regulators have identified former CIBC investment banker Paul Flynn as a "person of interest" in their investigation. Flynn, who left CIBC's New York office in December, worked with Sassano in finding financing for some of his hedge fund customers, a person familiar with Sassano said. Flynn's assistant also left the firm last month. Flynn could not be reached for comment. A CIBC spokesman declined to comment. Earlier this year, CIBC sold its Oppenheimer brokerage business to Fahnestock, which is now operating under the Oppenheimer name.
Chronos Asset Management, the Boston-area hedge fund that Sassano referred to his friend Druffner, received financing from CIBC, according to Massachusetts regulators. In addition, Atlantique Capital, the Garden City, N.Y., hedge fund that Sassano invested in and helped start up, received financing from CIBC. A person familiar with Sassano said Flynn's group at CIBC specialized in using credit derivatives to arrange financing for hedge funds. Credit derivatives are specialized financial instruments that are used to mitigate specific forms of credit risk by hedge fund or other speculators. Janet Tavakoli, a structured finance consultant, said hedge funds increasingly have been relying on credit derivatives to boost their leverage, a practice that enables them to increase the return on their investment without putting in additional capital or money. An official in Spitzer's office has described the issue of banks financing hedge funds that engaged in market-timing as the next big phase of its investigation.

PRAGUE (WKOW) -- The fight for peace and order in Afghanistan will now be aided by more Czech troops. The Czech Parliament has approved a government plan to increase the number of Czech troops in Afghanistan during the next two years.
The plan, approved by Parliament's upper house last week, won the approval of the lower house on Wednesday in a 106-67 vote.
It allows the deployment of up to 720 service members in Afghanistan in 2011, the largest number ever, and up to 640 in 2012. That is more than the current mandate of no more than 535.
Next year, nearly 200 new service members will join the Czech soldiers who serve as part of the NATO-led International Security Assistance Force in Afghanistan.
The lower chamber also approved a plan to gradually withdraw most Czech troops from the NATO-led force in Kosovo.

Visit B N to buy and rent, and check out our award-winning tablets and ereaders, including and. What's worse, her own loved ones have all left her (or at least tried to). Maybe it's an old girlfriend or boyfriend. Homer Barron's crew comes to town to build sidewalks, and Emily is seen with him. Shortly afterward, complaints about the odor emanating from her house lead Jefferson's aldermen to surreptitiously spread lime around her yard, rather than confront Emily, but they discover her openly watching them from a window of her home.

Still, that's not always easy to do. Sorry about that. When he dies, she refuses to acknowledge his death for three days. As a girl, Emily is cut off from most social contact by her father. The point is, it's understandable to miss what you leave behind. A Rose for Emily opens with Miss Emily Grierson's funeral.
