This is my first work of flash fiction. I'd heard the term, and had an idea what it meant, but I had to look it up to be certain. A work of flash fiction is a story too short to be a short story. It's an hors d'oeuvres of prose. Opinions vary about how long flash fiction can be. One thousand words or less is a limit commonly agreed on. I find it hard to put together a work that brief. I hate to think what that implies if brevity truly is the soul of wit.
Flash fiction is sometimes accused to pandering to the short attention span. I suppose there's something to that. After all, it took the internet age to make flash fiction popular. I think there can be legitimate advantages to it though. For a reader, the advantages are obvious. Even if you have the attention span to read novels of banquet length, a bite of candy now and then isn't such a bad thing. For a writer, it provides an opportunity. It allows me to use story ideas that I would otherwise discard. This story, for example. I don't think I could have done any more with it than I have, but it was still worth doing.
Beyond the Happy Ending
"Honey, I don't mind you bringing work home, but when you come to bed you're a wife, not an editor."
"Huhn? Oh! No, Michael, it's not that. Look." She handed him a page.
It was a series of numbered sentences. He read some aloud. "'I can't live without her.' 'He's the only thing I live for.' 'I would do anything for her.'" He took his reading glasses back off. "What is this for?"
"They're lines from books we've published. They show up all the time. You've read those lines again and again."
"Not as often as you have."
She laughed. "Not just from the stuff I have to dredge through. It's in books and movies and everything. And it's crap. God, I used to love that stuff. I still would if I didn't have to read it for a living."
"Okay." He read a few more. "'I can't sleep; I can't eat.' You're right. I have heard that again and again. 'He's the thing that gives my life meaning.' 'She's my whole world.' 'Nothing seems real when he's not with me.' Did you mean to alternate these from man to woman?"
"Kind of. That's not what's important. You can substitute he and she in any of them. Michael, I can do better than that."
"You want to write now?"
"I want to write some romance that doesn't have any of that in it. It's not real. Look at us. Why can't there be a romance novel that tells our story?"
"I don't want our story in print for other people to read."
"No, not us specifically. I mean real love. I want to write a story about a couple who've been together for years, not days."
He wanted to tell her it was a bad idea, but he was too curious. "How serious are you about this?"
"You can't tell?"
"Of course I can tell. I get it. You want to write about what happens beyond the happy ending."
"Oh, that'd be a great title. You think it's a good idea then?"
In the moment he needed to decide, his head tilted nervously. "You need help?"
"Are you serious? Oh yes!"
They went to work the next day, and it lasted. They made certain to spend time dismantling every cliché they could. Carol complained, "They can't live without each other? I don't want to write that. I want to write about love, not need." They set the rule that the love story wouldn't include dependence. With that, the characters started to form.
That was just a start. Carol flipped through her notes. "'Nothing matters without her?' Oh god. And this one, 'There's nothing in the world but him.' That's not the way it was with us. You didn't make the rest of the world invisible, Michael. You made it more real, more important. I started feeling passion for my life."
"I guess I am inspiring, at that."
She laughed, "Go ahead and make fun, smart ass, but it's true."
As they went on, the story felt like a reflection. They were agreed that they wouldn't write themselves, but the relationship in the story, it was the way they felt.
Michael said, "The can't eat, can't sleep stuff. That's not good either. I hate the way people talk about desperation like it's romantic. You don't make me a nervous wreck like that. I'm more satisfied because of you."
Pages kept flowing and platitudes kept toppling. "You know what I hate?," he asked. "I hate that 'she's all I live for' crap. Or 'she's all I ever wanted'. It's love in a microscope. The rest of the world is still there even when you're in love."
Carol knew it. "Mmmm. The women say that too. Who would want to live like that? Your entire life revolving around one person? Michael, you're not the only thing I live for."
"God, I couldn't take that much of you, Carol." Before she could smack him with a pillow, he offered, "Love inspired us to become more, not less. Your career. You really took off when we got together, and I love it. I love it that I'm not all you have."
"Yes," she said, "and that brings up another. 'I'd do anything for you.' Michael, would you really do anything for me?"
"Hell no. A lot of things come to mind. I'd do a lot. Not anything, though."
She wasn't comfortable admitting it, but, "You've given up more for me than I have for you."
"Hey, I don't keep score. You've done plenty too. Anyway, I'm not like the idiots in these books. I give what I have to when I have to. I don't do it just because I can. You never asked any more than I would give."
Now that was romance. "Mm. We can use that. Never ask for more than your lover can give."
In the end, they had a short, but meaningful story of life faced through love. There was no insecurity, no struggle for understanding. The characters did not have to overcome doubt. They did not have to come together, because they were already there. They were not afraid of the future. Life provided challenges enough for the couple. They faced those challenges together, and that was their story.
Her boss was hardly apologetic. "I'm sorry, Carol. I just don't think it will sell."

The financial decisions we make in our lives actually provide a witness to what is of greatest importance to us. Planned giving is one of those vital financial decisions and is a measure of our love for our families and our church. The St. Paul's Memorial Church Legacy Program encourages you to make these important choices with respect to your estate and will provide the assistance you need to do so.
Scripture teaches us that as stewards of God's creation we are responsible for using what we have been given to benefit his kingdom. As Christians, we believe that ultimately everything in this world belongs to God, so it is only fitting that we return a portion of our blessings to him. Since we are only trustees of the possessions and wealth in our keeping, we must use them for a faithful purpose...for the good of all.
We know the joy we receive when we give to God through the church, and we have seen the astonishing way God transforms lives by using our tithes and offerings. But planned giving goes beyond contributing generously on a monthly or annual basis. Through the St. Paul's Memorial Church Legacy Program, you can share in a vision for the future by taking advantage of planned giving opportunities that honor God, provide an enduring witness to your faith, and benefit your family.
For more information about specific planned giving vehicles, call the parish office or consult your financial adviser.

The United States called Friday on both Russian authorities and protesters to remain peaceful as opponents of Prime Minister Vladimir Putin prepared major weekend demonstrations against his rule.
Putin has angrily accused the United States of inciting the protests after Secretary of State Hillary Clinton raised concerns about the fairness of parliamentary elections that Putin's party won but with a reduced majority.
State Department spokeswoman Victoria Nuland said that the United States supported the right to peaceful protest in Russia as it does "anywhere in the world."

For the US how ever to criticize Russia over the use of their tactics while their own police forces and security forces are doing the exact same thing, flies in the face off hypocrisy.
It is not being melodramatic, it is actually pointing out the double standards.

I'm a Southern boy raised on Southern Flavors and that includes the goodness that is Pimento Cheese. I have to admit, for a while... I lost my love for the orange spread that's cloaked in ingredient secrecy. I mean, when you're first served up some pimento cheese and you've never tried it before you have to wonder..."What is this Glowing Orange Goo?" But, then you taste it, and you are hooked.
So why did I loose my love for pimento cheese for a brief while? Well, all I can say is that... I have no idea! I'm blaming being busy with life and writing, research, and more. Thankfully my wife Ally makes some awesome pimento cheese, my best friend Wes has his own amazing recipe, and our friend, the good lawyer Jerry Tidwell, introduced me to Pimento Cheese Burgers!
Pimento Cheese - A Creamy Northern Thing!
I've been told that Pimento Cheese is a flavor found in the south! That it's a Southern Dish! That's true - a pimento cheese offering at a Southern cookout or picnic is a given. It's like cooking a bratwurst in beer - it just goes together!
However - according to some foodies the "Southern traditional dish" may have roots in... NEW YORK and other Northern states!
According to writer Robert Moss in his article From Scientific Cuisine to Southern Icon: The Real History of Pimento Cheese, the cheesy concoction is the result of several food innovations coming together. In the late 1800's Cream cheese was hitting the shelves, canning was improving, tasty red peppers were being imported, and consumers were making their own versions of pimento cheese. By 1910 food manufactures caught onto the craze and finished pimento cheese products started showing up in markets. National brands soon followed. Most of the production, according to Moss's research, was in New York and Wisconsin.
The thing to remember is that Cream Cheese was the main ingredient in these versions of Pimento Cheese. However, processed cheese version were also becoming popular after World War Two- as shown in the above picture of an A&P Pimento Cheese product courtesy of Ednas Ruths Attic shop on ETSY. The Pimento Cheese recipe was beginning to Blur.
Where does the South Come in?
Well, there are a few things to consider. First - You can thank several innovative southern farmers and producers around the Griffin Georgia area for cementing Pimento Cheese as a Southern Classic! By the mid 1920's the state of Georgia, mostly centered around griffin, became a hotbed of domestically grown Pimento peppers. Plus, improvements in manufacturing made the peppers easier to peel. By 1938 The country's largest packer, Pomona Products Company of Griffin, was producing 10 million cans of pimentos per year.
Then, following World War II, southern kitchen gurus seemed to alter the basic Pimento Cheese recipe! Instead of a creamy, Philadelphia cream cheese, based recipe - Southern cooks swapped out "creamy cheese" with shredded cheddar. But, they still needed "creamy" which means they started reaching for Mayonnaise!
Also - Have you ever heard of the Masters Golf Tournament? The Pimento Cheese Sandwich is a historic staple of the event; as shown by the picture of shelves loaded with green wrapped baggies courtesy of TheTeeSheet.com. Combine the three factors and you have a boiled down version of why the South loves pimento cheese!
Kent's Big Cheesy Pimento Cheese Burger
Since my introduction to the Pimento Cheese Burger I've included a version of that tasty burger in each of my cook books including my newest title - Great American Grilling. This version is my newest concoction and the Great American Grilling cookbook version can be found HERE.
Sure, you can make a hamburger and top it with Pimento Cheese. That's the traditional way to make a Pimento Cheese Burger. But why stop there? Have you ever thought about adding some shredded cheese to your ground beef? How about this – a burger with shredded cheese in the beef, then stuffed with pimento cheese, and then topped with even more pimento cheese. Here's the recipe which are really loose guidelines.
- 1 1/2 pounds 80/20 ground beef
- Shredded cheddar cheese
- Salt and pepper
- Pimento Cheese
- Steak sauce
- More pimento cheese
Add about 1/2 cup of shredded cheddar cheese to your ground beef. You're making four burgers but you'll need eight patties. Here's why! Separate the beef into eight equal portions. Form eight thin patties. Lightly season all of the patties with salt and pepper.
Spread some Pimento cheese onto the center of four of the patties. Don't go to the edges. Next, place the four remaining patties on top of the pimento cheese covered patties. Pinch and form the edges to seal making four, huge, pimento cheese stuffed burgers! Brush lightly with steak sauce and grill as you normally would. When the Big Cheesy Burgers are done – serve up topped with more pimento cheese, your favorite toppings, all on a deli fresh bun!

Badgal Diaries: Rih-Rih Goes Instagram Ham With Her Tatted Bee Stings On Full Blast
- By Bossip Staff
Rihanna Goes Bare Bodied On Instagram
Badgal Rih-Rih is back on her best bullish after a wild night of Halloween ratchetness.
The Barbados-born banger, who hosted a star-studded Halloween bash at West Hollywood's Greystone Manor on Wednesday night, hit up her Instagram to show us all how her night ended, just in case we didn't already know.
Although Rih and her Taliban man Chris Breezy reportedly didn't sit at the same table during the party, partygoers revealed that it wasn't long before the two were all over each other and gettin' their lap-dance love in the club on.
Judging from the looks of this picture, we can just about guess what happened next.

Jessie J fears she will never walk in high heels again after undergoing a bone transplant to fix her broken foot.
The Price Tag hitmaker has had her left foot rebuilt by surgeons after falling off a stage platform during a concert rehearsal in June (11).
The singer insists the agonising injury is the "hardest" challenge she's had to overcome - and worries she'll never be able to wear sky-high stilettos again.
She tells Britain's The Sun, "I've had to have full reconstruction. I've had my bone taken out and someone else's put in. I hope they were a tap dancer.
"I don't know when it's going to be fully healed, or if I will ever be able to wear heels again. I'll have to get an endorsement deal with a trainer (running shoe) company.
"I have days where I sit and cry. It's the hardest thing I've been through. I should have really spent the last three months at home but I couldn't turn down the VMAs (MTV Video Music Awards) and Glastonbury. The doctor keeps telling me to rest but I'm doing another video this week for (pizza take-away store) Domino's."

WASHINGTON — With lawmakers intent on sending a final regulatory reform bill to President Obama by July 4, much of the legwork is already happening behind the scenes on how to tackle a host of unresolved issues, including a proposed swaps ban, a stringent capital requirement, interchange fee regulation and a consumer protection agency.
Interviews with analysts, industry representatives, academics and other sources point to a growing consensus on how some of these issues will play out. American Banker offers the following answers to frequently asked questions as a guide to the conference committee's work.
When does the conference committee start?
It will kick off Wednesday with opening statements. While lawmakers have promised the negotiations will take place in public, that appears unlikely, with negotiations already taking place behind closed doors.
"Nothing is going to happen in conference. Everything is going to happen beforehand. The conference is just going to kind of rubber-stamp it," said Kip Weissman, a partner in the law firm Luse Gorman Pomerenk & Schick. "It's not a question of openness; it's a question of ceremony. … It's very, very rare for there to be true negotiations in conference."
House Financial Services Committee Chairman Barney Frank is expected to chair the conference, but the Senate bill is expected to be the base text, which gives an advantage to provisions already included in that version.
Opening statements are likely to go on through next week, and substantive public discussion won't begin until June 15.
What are the most critical issues?
The House and Senate bills are similar in many ways, but the Senate version has several provisions not found in the House bill, including ones that would force banks to spin off their derivatives trading operations, regulate interchange rates on debit cards, eliminate the thrift charter and stop trust-preferred securities from counting as Tier 1 capital.
The two bills also confront national bank preemption in slightly different ways and differ on where a consumer agency should be housed and how it should be funded.
Will the derivatives provision survive?
The measure is expected to be heavily watered down or even dropped. Several regulators have argued that forcing banks to spin off their swaps desk would increase, not decrease, risk in the system, and the Obama administration is thought to oppose it.
The most likely scenario is that lawmakers will beef up the Senate bill's language on the Volcker Rule to ban proprietary trading to ensure it covers derivatives activities. Under the compromise, regulators could ban risky trading activities.
"I think ultimately the derivatives language and the 'Volcker' language will end up sort of meshing," said Josh Rosner, a managing director at the research firm Graham Fisher & Co. "Banks will be allowed to hedge for themselves and they'll be allowed to for customers, but anything that falls outside of that on the derivatives trading side — i.e., that is not for economic business purposes — will end up being forced outside the bank holding company."
What about the provision on trust-preferreds?
That, too, is likely to be moderated. At the behest of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp., Sen. Susan Collins, R-Maine, added a provision to stop trust-preferred securities from counting as Tier 1 capital. (The FDIC argues it's really debt and doesn't absorb losses.)
But implementation of that ban would cause a huge drop in Tier 1 capital, a prospect that has many in the industry panicking.
While it could be stripped from the final bill, many expect such a restriction to be phased in gradually and existing trust-preferreds may be grandfathered. But conferees must tread carefully. Collins is one of only four Republicans who voted for the bill in the Senate and her vote on final passage will be crucial.
But the interchange amendment will be taken out, right?
Don't bet on it. Although state treasurers have joined bankers in opposition of the provision by Sen. Richard Durbin, D-Ill., that would require the Federal Reserve Board to ensure interchange fees on debit cards are "reasonable and proportional," the odds of removing the provision are slim.
Durbin and a slew of retailer groups are lobbying hard to keep the measure in the final bill, and argue the Senate's 64-to-33 vote on it is proof that it enjoys considerable bipartisan support.
"I don't expect significant watering down," said Brian Gardner, an analyst with KBW Inc.
"You could see some tightening of the language of what 'reasonable and proportional' means, how you define what the actual costs are for the issuers and the networks. … But I think the guts of the amendment, which is to instruct the Fed to regulate these fees … stays in place."
Both bills would eliminate the Office of Thrift Supervision, but what about the thrift charter?
It is likely to survive.
The House would keep the thrift charter while the Senate would grandfather existing thrifts but close off the charter to new applicants.
Senate Banking Committee Chairman Chris Dodd resisted efforts by Sen. John Kerry, D-Mass., to preserve the thrift charter during the regulatory reform vote, but most observers think he did so to preserve a bargaining chip for conference, not because he is committed to the issue.
Frank, meanwhile, has repeatedly said he wants to preserve the thrift charter.
What about the consumer protection agency?
That issue appears to be in flux. While the House would create a stand-alone agency, the Senate would place an independent bureau underneath the Fed. The Senate version may prevail simply because it has an easier funding mechanism — it would just draw money from the central bank.
I thought the preemption provisions in both bills would restore the Barnett standard. Why is there still a fight?
Both bills would allow the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency to preempt state laws on a case-by-case basis, but the Senate bill explicitly references the 1996 Barnett Supreme Court case, while the House uses its own language designed to emulate it.
The House bill also would add provisions that would require the OCC to prove a substantive federal standard addresses the same issue a state law attempts to tackle before it could be preempted.
The House would give the state attorneys general the ability to enforce any federal law against a national bank, while the Senate bill restricts them to just enforcing new rules from the consumer protection regulator.
Raj Date, the chairman of the Cambridge Winter Center for Financial Institutions Policy, said: "The Senate language is going to prevail. Sometimes I wonder whether the distinction is as big of a deal as the industry and the OCC lead themselves to believe, but I don't think it's going to be a big, contentious issue."

Last week I attended Kansas City Writes, a reading and discussion with several local authors organized by good friends who, incidentally, own a fantastic magazine.
Having anticipated the event for several weeks, I found myself torn as it drew closer – do I attend and learn from local authors, or travel 40 minutes westward to hang with fellow social media fans during a post-conference tweet-up? The authors won, and after hearing three different presentations that inspired me in different ways, I'm happy with my choice.
First up? Whitney Terrell, a big fish in Kansas City's literary pond. Perhaps you read his debut novel, "The Huntsman," or his second, "The King of Kings County." Whitney is hard at work on his third novel, a manuscript that's taken five years to complete. The book presents a compelling juxtaposition as characters move between two main settings: Princeton University, Whitney's alma matter; and war-torn Iraq, where Whitney spent two weeks in 2006 as an embedded journalist.
Part conversation, part reading, Whitney's talk focused solely on his third manuscript and the process behind it, including the extensive discussions he's had with war veterans. "These guys are psyched to talk to people about the war–few people are actually interested, especially in a social setting," he said.
Whitney shared several pages from his manuscript, a gritty scene that introduced us to the lead character (incidentally, a female) and exhibits Whitney's superb narrative technique and knack for dialogue.
A former National Geographic writer and editor, Candice Millard has since published her first book, "The River of Doubt," a non-fiction tome that details Theodore Roosevelt's harrowing trip to the book's namesake. Her passion for research and little-known yet compelling stories immediately surfaced during her effervescent discussion, an educational conversation during which Candice highlighted her five rules for non-fiction writing:
1. Have something to say, and experience the world to the extent that you can.
2. A subject is not a story.
3. Let the idea do the work for you. You don't have to be the first person to write about a subject; instead, bring a fresh perspective.
4. Everyone loves to learn. If your story has compelling characters and a strong narrative, you can talk about anything.
5. Be brutal when it comes to editing.
Throughout Candice's talk, I found myself immediately identifying with her palpable passion for research, one of my favorite parts of the writing process. The toughest part is knowing when to cut yourself off and begin writing, yet you also have the privilege of learning; "you can just immerse yourself in a subject," she said.
Author and event host Patrick Dobson concluded the evening with a frank discussion of his book, "Seldom Seen: A Journey into the Great Plains," which originated from Patrick's two and a half month trek to Montana and back. Patrick also spent time sharing his long journey to becoming a writer, a rocky road peppered with naysayers, including family members and teachers, who belittled Patrick's writing dreams. Yet with a work ethic to rival even the most focused disciplinarian, Patrick defied his ingrained doubts and became a published author.
As I continue to ride the wave of exhilaration produced by my first book, and begin to plan for my second, I found this event to be compelling and inspirational. I left with a brain brimming with ideas, several books to add to my must-read list and insight into three very different authors, all joined, like me, by a common thread: a pure, all-consuming love of the written word.

Project Management and Team Building
What are the three best team building techniques and how they would be used and why these three would be considered the best.© BrainMass Inc. brainmass.com August 21, 2018, 7:32 am ad1c9bdddf
Solution Preview
The question wants you to identify the three best techniques for team building and justify why you consider these to be the 'best'. You should also consider the different situations and projects where different types of teams are most appropriate.

There are some assumptions, which the question makes. First the problem assumes that there are three 'best techniques'. This is not supported by evidence. The team building depends on the project and every project has a different 'best' team building technique. A good organization recognizes this and uses a different team building technique for different projects. Similarly, the reasons for 'best team' building techniques differ from project to project. For instance if the project is to launch a new product in the electronics market, a leader selected and built team, headed by an experienced marketer would by most effective, but if there is a project announced in a classroom to be done immediately then a spontaneously formed team would be most suitable.

The last time I was heard from, I was about to venture up to EdgeLit 2 in Derby, wasn't I? Did you think you'd lost me? No such luck…
EdgeLit was fun and very, very hot indeed. I got to hang out with some of my lovely writer-friends, which was brilliant, and I really enjoyed the panel on urban fantasy's popularity, which covered everything from Buffy as the archetypal "kick-ass" female character (and the fact that she works as such because she has flaws: she may be able to put a vampire through a wall, but she still gets grounded…) to the perception that urban fantasy and paranormal romance are the same thing – and where that came from. For what it's worth, I strongly believe that they are separate sub-genres with a hefty amount of cross-over in both directions – but that doesn't necessarily mean that one has to contain the other. But maybe that's just me. Moving on.
Anyone who follows me on Twitter or Facebook will probably know about the racing. As I've mentioned on here before (and whinge about at length anywhere I can possibly get the words out) my husband is the proud owner (and driver) of a race car, which is running in the UK Time Attack series. This means I spend a lot of weekends in the paddock at racetracks, and last weekend was no exception: that was Oulton Park in Cheshire.
This time didn't go entirely to plan, as you'll see from the video…
It might not look like much from inside the car – and he was absolutely fine, thankfully – but standing on the other side of the track and knowing that not only has there been a crash but that your husband's is the only car not back in the pits (and watching the track doctors go screeching off in their car…) is a deeply, deeply unpleasant thing.
(Photo: Togethia Media / James Young)
Still, driver fine. Car not so much, but there's a few weeks before the next race – at which the car will have some shiny new livery.
Isn't he pretty? Yet again, that's the work of my fantastic cover artist, Pye Parr. (The large blank space, in case you're wondering, is for the series sponsor stickers which have to be applied to the door of every car competing.)
Minor catastrophe aside, the highlight of the event was watching the vintage F1 cars on the track – one an old Schumacher car, and one an old Senna one. Because I'm part of the race team, I get a pit wall pass meaning I'm free to come and go in the garages and pits as well as out onto the safety wall dividing the pits and the track – and for a long-time F1 fan, being able to watch (and hear) them go past from there was something else.
Away from motor racing, I popped in to Kim Curran and Bryony Pearce's launch for their new Strange Chemistry books, CONTROL and THE WEIGHT OF SOULS at Forbidden Planet. It was enormous fun, and it was fantastic to see so many people turn out to support them – including a big group of teen readers. I was lucky enough to read a draft of Kim's book, "Control" a little while ago, and thoroughly recommend it. She's one of the most exciting new YA authors working in genre, and I hope there are many more books to come.
Speaking of new books, I've been popping up here and there to talk about REBELLION a little more. You can find me lurking at Chuck Wendig's Terribleminds, talking about the challenges of REBELLION (and my favourite paragraph) as well as talking about angels at Winged Reviews. And if you're interested in the "story behind the story", pop over to Upcoming4me to find out about REBELLION's history.
I'll also be doing a couple of things at the upcoming Nine Worlds convention in London in a few weeks – but I'll post on that separately. I'm not sure I can compete with the car…

Don't get me wrong. I love the Law of Attraction. I believe in it wholeheartedly. And you know what else I believe in? Taking action, and taking risks. At some point, you have to act. At some point you may have to get a little scared. Maybe even a lot scared. You may have to step forward and give some weight to your affirmations, visualizations and good vibrations. It's the best way to let the universe (and yourself) know that you're serious about this dream of yours and about this life of yours.
When I was a kid, my neighbors had a wheelbarrow. They'd leave it out in their yard a lot. Sometimes my older brother gave me rides in it. I'd sit in the front of the wheelbarrow while he'd zoom me around in the yard making vrooooommmm noises like little boys do. And then, as boys also do, he'd get kind of obnoxious and go really fast. Then he'd make the little-boy sound for brakes – errrrrrrht! – and dump the whole wheelbarrow forward. I'd tumble out and land on my butt in the grass.
It can be like that wheelbarrow ride the way the momentum of visualizations and affirmations carry you along. And it can be lots of fun. (Yes, I'm stretching a little bit with this metaphor. Just go with me here.) But if you feel like that momentum has stopped, and you've been dumped onto your butt surrounded by all of your gratitude journals, visualizations, and affirmations, and you're just waiting for something to happen, it might be a sign that the momentum needs some help from you. Something needs to change.
Is it time to give up on all of that good stuff you've been doing? No. It just might be time to put some legs on it. It's time to act. To take a risk. All of the visualizing and affirming in the world isn't going to do anything if you don't step up to the plate, face some of your fears, and make some kind of move.
When I first knew I wanted to write songs and perform, I wrote about it everyday. But at some point, I had to make the move to change my life. I moved to a place where I could live cheaply. Then I had to find some open mic nights and begin to play in front of people. Then I had to get a regular gig. Then I had to make a CD. Was each risk scary? Ohmigod, yes! But it was necessary. No one was going to come find me in my kitchen plucking on my guitar, no matter how many affirmations I did!
Risk is different for everyone. For some, it's a simple action, like exploring alternative health options for an illness. For others, it's a big giant change, like starting a business or moving to another city, or letting go of a dead-end relationship. Starting a blog can be a risk. Taking a vacation can be a risk. Honoring your values enough to let go of a current comfortable living situation can be a risk. Sometimes it's not really even a risk. It's just an action. But since it's not what you're used to doing, it feels like a risk.
I believe there's a point when you know it's time. You simply know that it's time to take the chance or to take some action. You might not know it consciously, but you do know it deeply.
Well, it might be time to take a risk if…
– You've said, "…at least I have benefits" more than once in the last month.
– You've written "My job has benefits" in your gratitude journal more than five times in the past month.
– You think to yourself, "I need to just learn to surrender to this place and be present and grateful." And a few seconds later, you think, "Don't I?"
– You keep returning to the Personal Growth section of Barnes & Noble hoping for just one more book that'll give you the answer.
– You're waiting to be discovered.
– You check your email regularly to see if you've been discovered yet.
– There are more than three empty Ben & Jerry's Cookie Dough Ice Cream containers in your trash this week.
– You envy Paris Hilton.
– You are Paris Hilton.
– You've thought, "Maybe God just doesn't want me to succeed."
– You've watched "The Lake House" more than three times in the past month.
– You've used any of the following words or phrases when referring to yourself: "Stuck." "Can't." "Shouldn't." "Should." Or "Maybe I could be on American Idol."
– You've used the following word when referring to anyone else: "Fault."
– You've used any of the following words or phrases when referring to your situation: "Wish." "Sucks." "Benefits." Or "Maybe I could be on American Idol."
– You sigh more than 8 times a day.
– You envy your cat.
– You bit off an entire set of acryllic nails last week.
– You've decided that other people must not have fear.
– You worry about upsetting your parents.
– You worry about upsetting your friends.
– You worry about upsetting your boss.
– You worry about upsetting the cashier at the grocery store.
– You're waiting until you're sure you can do it perfectly.
– You think "getting out of your comfort zone" means getting out of bed in the morning.
– You're horribly offended by anything I've written here.

Current Review of Timothy Sykes' Pennystocking Silver Subscription
First thing is first, here is an article that explains a great free video case study that you should take a look at as well! It's free to sign up for.
So I'm about oh, I think almost two months into using the Silver subscription from Timothy Sykes and I guess it would be a good time as any to review so far what I've gone through and what I think and what my current situation is when it comes to understanding trading and what not! So here we go!
So I'm pretty much right on the end of my 60 days of the subscription, and it would be important to note that when you sign up for the subscription you'll be sent a video every day for you to watch. These 60 have been selected as the "best of the best" if you will out of the ever expanding data base of wisdom and tactics! I believe at this month of early 2014 there is something like 1400+ videos available for you to learn how to trade. Which I believe is absolutely amazing considering the price that you pay for the year or month!
I mean yes his other DVDs and what not will get right down to the strategy so those are cool too.. But I mean if you are starting out this is an absolute GEM! It's a fucking piece of gold! Really! There are things about being able to go through so many examples that just help burn patterns and recognition into your brain so that you can spot possible trades and trades to stay the hell away from! Since I started my knowledge of reading charts my understanding has improved %1000 and I've gone through Timothy Sykes DVDs several years ago as well (so that's on top of everything I've already learn from Tim). Of course back then I was not trading but more or less priming my brain for being able too in the future!
Since that time has come, I've learn many different ways on how to scan for stocks what to look for, what to see during a trade and how I should re-act to the changing winds of the stock market and the trade at hand! In the end though it's hard for me to really pass along the real treasures that I'm getting from the Timothy Sykes' Silver Subscription (which comes with TimAlerts too) because it's something you have to experience, you have to be dedicated and be ready to put forth the effort to go through these videos and keep up with them! But it really comes down to what's in your heart! Do you have higher ambitions in life or do you just want to make it by like every one else?
Because in the end, it really is your choice, you have so many opportunities to learn to become something better then you are now! And let me tell you, from the small amount of trading I've done so far and have been right on every single account of trading, I can say this is VERY EMPOWERING!! (do note the loss at the time of Feb 2014 was due to because of software issues which you can read about here which is actually a good lesson to read about being able to get out of a stock!). What I also want to note is that I'm not a new comer to the making money area.. I live off of marketing websites and selling goods online as well.
So I know the rush and the evolution that comes when one breaks through barriers of income. But I believe wholeheartedly that being able to have called %100 of my stock picks I've played in so far, be it real money or in paper trading, I can say this is much more powerful then any other vehicle I've used for creating income. I've not traded for a little while now mostly because I'm still moving through all the DVDs which you can see in my Library section above. I'm also self teaching myself Japanese while I'm learning trading and there is a reason why.. actually a couple.
I'm moving to Japan in a few years to study Japanese. I'm also fascinated by the Japanese and another reason is that learning a language while learning something new helps you improve your long term memory and increases the size of your hippocampus and it makes everything just so great… but so does smoking pot while studying .. hey why not right? But do know, it's best to always beware of stranger danger… by following these few steps, you can avoid your account being raped… just replace any given keyword with "Penny Stock Newsletter".
But really I do so much studying that I actually have to take several days off from pure trading education so it can balance my mind and give it a rest so I can come back to it fresh. So I would highly suggest you either join me in learning Japanese or learning another language while you work through your trading videos!
If you pass up this opportunity to learn from a true genius in terms of seeing and recognizing penny stocking patterns then you're an idiot and I tell you that because I care (a little bit) about your trading account and you as a person! It's bullshit to watch your account get whittled away as your heart pounds waiting for an absolution… that will never come, as you get raped by the minute while a pumped stock steals your lunch money!
Yeah that's right. I went there and since I did let's pretend that at this point, your trading account just got fucking crushed like those people on the Titanic!
Now you have a choice to go back in risking even more money trying to gather up dead people (dollars) from the ship (stock) hoping for it to resurrect and come back to the surface… hoping some how… some way.. everything will be okay and you'll get to break even save face and your account…OR…… you could take the necessary action and get yourself educated by clicking here! Because waiting for an absolution is fucking WRONG!
Let me put it into words that you may be able to understand from this twisted joke… By learning through Timothy Sykes videos it will help you be able to let go of fucking Jack when he freezes to the fucking door floating in the water and admit you're wrong and move on to a more profitable stock pick without losing your ass to a pump!
With that said You might want to watch this video here, it will help you understand the psychology and the ultimate end re-action of what happens to people who believe stock pushers on the internet and hold through the pumps crash – it could be good for you, go check it out!
So be cool stay in school:
But one other thing you'll get out of the Silver Subscription since we're on this subject is that you'll get to see Timothy Sykes fucking up as well and you will get to see when he does, how he it went about it and how he limited his losses from being wrong. Because at the end of the day, it's just as important to know how to be a good loser. It's capital preservation and you need to fucking know it!
But really, take my word for it! This is something amazing. You get so much material and you get alerts and heads up of stocks that could move! I of course wouldn't suggest just depending on the watch list though, because the material helps you know even before the watch list comes out what is in play and what isn't. It will help you find stocks that are in play during the day and that is something that you can not put a price on! Being able to rely on yourself is fucking priceless!
Say it!
"Relying on myself is fucking priceless"
Say it again!!
"Relying on myself is fucking priceless!!!"
Okay good since we are at an understanding it's time to take your studies to the next level! Click here to get started… Be sure to have your shit in order though. Don't fucking get this if you even think you're going to bitch out. Because if you believe you're going to bitch out on learning how to trade, then you should just get out of trading all together! And that's straight from the mother fucking heart brother! I care… but not that much.. Remember that! But you should care a lot more then I do! It's your life! Live it up!
Make it so number one!

Appearantly FEMA was in town conducting training exercises "for planning for the needs of children in disasters" the day of the shooting!
Weird eh? Well it's about to get weirder...
While researching this further I found this very interesting video which explains how FEMA was not only in Connecticut at the time of the shooting but also in London during the 2005 Subway bombing conducting bomb drills and in the New York area during 911 while it happened!!!
FEMA sure has a fantastic ability to be in the right place at the Rright time before an amazing, well publicized, tragedy occurs.
This is a well researched little video that will leave you thinking,
Anyone else starting to see the bigger picture here?

I found another image of the nuns taken from a different angle, the nun on the left is definitely holding something, but a gun? NO I don't think it is...
As you can see, it looks too slender and light to be a gun and she is not gripping it but merely letting something hang on her hand - kinda like a rosary or something.
Also, do you think she would be openly carrying a gun at a crimescene with so many people around
(Hi-res. versions here and here.)
...the nuns look very official. In fact they ... even have identification badges. The nuns also appear to be wearing police or military issue 511 Tactical Shoes in a non-suede finish. We have also had a local reader ... saying that no nuns [in the Sandy Hook area] wear this type [of] garb, ... these nuns are not indigenous to the area.
And according to this police/fire department radio log, there were reports of suspects of whom "One may be wearing a nun outfit, headed toward Danbury and Stoney Hill, purple van" (just after 1:35).
Maybe this is all fake. "The camera," so the late, great journalist Malcolm Muggeridge maintained, "always lies" and the bit about the suspect "in a nun outfit" could easily have been dubbed into the police audiotape. But then, why? To give a bum steer to those trying to find out what actually happened? That would certainly be a good way to discredit those unsatisfied with the CNN version of events.
If, as the Newtown Police are said to have reported," there were multiple suspects in "possible nun outfits ... fleeing the scene in a purple van wearing ski masks," so be it. They must have been a different bunch of nuns to those shown above who are clearly without masks.
The Sandy Hook Nuns had a purple getaway van

Old news in Connecticut and I for one am firmly behind this bill...
my guess is that they would be able to create a total police state from events like these......just my opinion, i really don't know. but i will say there are too many things that do NOT add up with this story.

Can't be just to pass that dumb gun bill, nobody really seems all that interested in passing it, just a typical democratic response.
Nobody pushed to reinstate the gun ban when it expired.
So there would have to be a reason for them to want to pull this off. Look for that before you start building a conspiracy.

Thanks. It does seem to be the consensus until I can get my Japanese speaking friend to listen to it. I have heard it could be Hebrew or Greek...but I was not sure. Wanted to see what people thought.

If you thought you had seen the end of the "will they won't they" debacle that has become the Yahoo Microsoft merger then be prepared for a flood of new rumours following comments made by Microsoft's chief operating officer this week.
According to The Times, Kevin Turner has "extended an olive branch to Carol Bartz, the new chief executive of Yahoo!"
Quoting Turner, Times reporter Murad Ahmed quotes the COO in saying:
"They have a new CEO, and she's formulating her business plans. We've certainly made her aware and the Yahoo! board aware that if they are ever interested in an opportunity to partner with them on search, we'd like to sit down and at least have the conversation. It has to make economic sense to both parties".
The Microsoft Yahoo takeover merger plans have been dragging on for over a year with both sides going hot and cold over the possible deal. In November 2008 Microsoft chief Steve Ballmer, at the time supposedly laid it on the line: "Let me be as clear as I think I've tried to be publicly. We are done with all acquisition discussions with Yahoo", he told Microsoft's annual shareholders meeting, in response to a question on what was happening with Yahoo.
"I've said that a bunch of times. Somehow some people have gotten confused nonetheless. We thought we had something that made sense. (It) didn't make sense to them. We've moved on".
It seems Turner either didn't get Ballmer's memo or Microsoft are hoping to get talks back on.
We will keep you posted.

text: Hello Everyone, So here is the thing. You would not believe how many PM, emails or Skype messages from some noobies with first messages being "Contact me ASAP I need help" Or even if it is a service they are interested in they scream instant gratification. Listen Up! First where are peoples manners? When I am doing business with someone I at least ask them how they are before getting down to business. Second, Time Zones! This is an International Business forum. Expand your mind a little bit and think for 2 seconds someone might have added you at 3AM in their morning even though it is still evening for you. Their might be delays in a response. Next Moderators and Admins are busy people and guess what? They have a family and a life to. So give the "ASAP" comments a break. Business tact is very important and will get you a long allot better than snapping your fingers at people. Anyone else have the same experience? So for all of you snapping fingers at us...Calm down and learn how to do business. Cheers, Unclemike

Weekend Activities
What will our students do on the weekend?
Maybe attend a mixer at another boarding school, make s'mores on the Smedes patio, shop at Cameron Village or hike at Umstead State Park. From movies to '80s-themed dances, from spa nights to tacos at the Armadillo Grill, Raleigh offers students myriad things to do.
Each Wednesday a list of weekend activities are posted and students are invited to sign up for any activities in which they are interested. Faculty and staff are assigned weekend duties and accompany students on excursions around the Raleigh area as well as offer fun activities on campus, like baking cookies, making dumplings or enjoying an in-dorm movie night.
Day students are invited and often participate in these school-sponsored weekend activities with their Saint Mary's boarding friends.

This article originally appeared on LearnVest.com.The New Year comes with a blizzard of gym ads. Get in shape without spending huge sums. Here are nine ways which can save you nearly $600 in gym fees.
Many colleges and universities offer discounted gym access to alumni. Columbia University, in New York City, for example, charges $230 per year for recent graduates. That comes out to less than $20 per month!
Scout out other gyms in your area and ask about discounts. Then, ask your gym of choice to match. Now's the best time to search, since so many fitness clubs have January specials. (If you convinced the gym you're interested in to simply drop its joining fee, you could save as much as $50 to $200.)
Some health plans provide discounts on gym memberships, so research yours. An example: Blue Cross Blue Shield's Care First provides up to 60 percent off membership fees. You could save as much as $360 per year, if you usually pay $50 per month.
Many companies offer gym deals for employees, as working out lowers health care costs. For instance, Prudential allows employees to save $20 per month off of memberships at New York Sports Club.
Some gyms offer lower rates if you go at non-peak hours. These special rates often aren't advertised, so ask.
The American Health and Fitness Association's passbook costs $75 and contains vouchers for free admission to gyms, Pilates, or yoga in New York, Chicago, Houston, and Los Angeles. Depending on how often you work out, the $75 book could very well last you the entire year.
Runners clubs are overlooked gems. These organizations help you find races and provide a running community. Don't worry about being Olympic-caliber; many clubs have events for beginners. Road Runners Club of America offers individual memberships for $25 per year, while the marathon group 50&DC Marathon Group USA costs $10 for a lifetime membership. Many Meetup.com running clubs are free, too, though some charge small fees.
Get your exercise on at home with free workout videos.
Mapmyrun.com helps you find running routes, and its iPhone app tracks calorie usage and logs workouts. iPod Nano, Touch, or iPhone users can nab a personal training regimen from Nike for $29, which tracks time, distance, pace, and calories burned.
If you follow these tips, you can save: $571/year*If you invested this amount today and earned an 8 percent return, you would have $12,405 by retirement.***Savings if you buy the Nike + iPod Sport Kit instead of paying $50 per month to a gym. Comparable savings if you use a voucher book instead of a gym membership or join a university gym for a reduced fee.**If you are 25 today and retire at age 65. We calculated that number here.
