Thursday, June 07, 2007
I've been butting heads a bit with one of the women that I have been training to take over my role here at work. I started showing her the billing process we use, and she has sort of fought me on it every step of the way. Wanting to make changes to the process before she even understands it. I set her the task of updating one of the spreadsheets we use to compile the data and explained the process to her several times. She tore through it, and then when I went in to check her work I found heaps of errors. About half the entries had mistakes. She seems to want to show how competant she is by changing things and working through everything as fast as she can, but the real need here is accuracy.
Anyway, that was frustrating enough. But then I found out that she has gone to my boss and complained that I'm not teaching her anything. (Oh really? Betch.) I explained that this wasn't the case (and filled my boss in on the accuracy issue), and my boss understood immediately. You see, she basically pulled the same stunt on him. She and my boss were talking to our divisional manager, and she said to this senior level manager that she was settling in just fine but that we weren't teaching her anything. Making myself and my boss both look bad.
So she and I now have a problem. I'm trying to get my own work up to date, and write an instruction manual, and answer a 101 daily questions from both of them about everything from how to print an envelope to how to write an email (I kid you not). I'm basically busting a gut and feel like she has backstabbed me big time.
So, next week I will continue to do the correct thing and sit with her. I will show her again the tasks that need to be done, and point out to her that she can change things only once she understands the process and has checked that it stays within the audit guidelines. I will stress accuracy over speed. And if she makes any mistakes I will happily show her just exactly where she has made an error.
If she wants to bring it, I'm up for the challenge.

OK...Take a deep breath, slowly release it, and remember that this, too, shall pass.
This woman obviously has issues, but she is presently in your life to show you some of your own. She is an agent of karma, bringing out facets of yourself that would otherwise lay dormant. And this is happening now because you are ready to deal with these things.
Every crisis is an opportunity for growth; inside, you've been growing, and now it is time for that process to manifest in your awareness and life experience. Such periods aren't always fun, but they are necessary.
What, were you expecting me to bash the bitch and buy you a beer?

No bashing required, but I'll take that beer.

How frustrating and energy-sapping to have to deal with stuff like this at work.
I second Thombeau's comment to breath deeply and to remember that you are leaving this job in a few weeks. I might throw in some knitting there too to sooth the nerves!
On another note (which I should probably write on the other post but I'm being lazy), I went to check the time for _History Boys_ and it isn't showing at my local cinema any more! I was even willing to go to the only time it was showing. Seriously--who sees movies at 10:30AM!!?? I guess I'll have to wait until it comes out on DVD.

- Jodie Sorrell said...
There are a few things you could think about while breathing slowly;
1. You're leaving and she won't be your problem for much longer
2. Isn't she still on probation?
3. You're prettier than she is and have better shoes.

- The Other Andrew said...
Yes! YES! I knew you would get to the heart of the matter Jodie. :)

Must be something in the air - I've been in a ratty mood too (effing stupid housemates) and I was originally going to tell you to slap the bitch n give her one for me too... Thank goodness for Thombeau's soothing comment (and beer)
- 1:42 pm
- The Other Andrew said...
Definately something in the air I think Nash.
Cecilia, I think there were more sessions of The History Boys showing at George St in the city, but it is definately near the end of its run.

how dreadful
I also feel sorry for you group who will get this tornado once you depart.
- 2:20 pm
Just shoot the bitch! LOL!! I feel for you 'cause I've been there.

Just focus on getting away from that place. Soon. And be glad.
But...if she can't and/or won't do the job correctly why is she continuing with it? And since when does a new hire still in training get to speak with the boss and the boss's boss?
I worked for an arts university and we thought WE had the inmates running the place. Seems the Large Christian Charity does much the same. At least we had a clothing optional swimming pool for lunchtime exercise. Oh, yes!!!

Apologies in advance if this is offensive in some way, but I find your hobbity wrath completely adorable.

Anger is an expression of emotion, Andrew. It's best not to let this issue fester; I suggest this win-win solution:
Tell the fat slag that you have a pistol and a burlap sack and doubt very much she'll be missed. Yep.
- 9:42 am
- The Other Andrew said...
Michael, swing by Oz sometime and I'll see if I can get a little heated just for you!
MG, actually not a 'fat slag'. A tiny Chinese lady. Unless she has wicked Kung Fu moves, I could probably take her.
- 9:57 am
- Mindy said...
Just remember the auditors. Soon they will be her problem. Soon, they will be showing her exactly where she got it wrong and asking her to do it all again. Your boss will remember you fondly and know it's not your fault.

Attention uninformed conservative Okies: The advertisement you see to the left is merely a temporary thing. You needn't worry with it any more.
Here's Dr. David Yeagley endorsing Republican Jason Nelson for District 87 House. Now, I don't live in Dr. Yeagley's district so I have no say in who's elected to that seat. And I haven't read anything on our candidate outside Dr. Yeagley's endorsement. What concerns me are the grounds on which Yeagley endorses our Indian-friendly candidate, Mr. Nelson:
If you're an Indian, and you live in District 87 (central Oklahoma City), you must vote for Jason Nelson for your state representative. I ran into Jason yesterday evening, while walking through my neighborhood. He was campaigning, house to house. I spoke a good while with him. I'm convinced, he's the best man for Indians.
No, he doesn't say a word about Indians in any of his campaign material or on his web site. But, I'm telling you, I spoke with him personally, at length. I know what he believes, feels, and thinks about Oklahoma Indians. He's our man! (Also told me his wife was part Chickasaw!)
Now, Dr. Yeagley, how many otherwise white-looking folks in Oklahoma have a bit of Chickasaw or Choctaw or Cherokee running through their veins? This fact Mr. Nelson reveals about his wife surprises you and delights you? I don't get it.
Well, I could go on and on and on about why Dr. Yeagley's encounter with Mr. Nelson on the streets of his neighborhood in OKC cannot possibly have been enough to convince him of all that ... unless he's an utter fool. One single (lengthy) encounter with a candidate selling his candidacy (to an Indian) in his neighborhood and Dr. Yeagley's ready to grab up his megaphone and announce to the world "I know all there is to know about him Indian-wise, he's our man!"? C'mon!
But it does get worse, believe it or not...
As I said, he's not campaigning on this. He also knows the prejudice and fears of many uninformed conservatives toward the subject of Indian casinos. But he knows this casino binge is a temporary thing. Wise Indian leaders, like Chickasaw Governor Bill Anoatubby for instance, know that the tribes must diversify. They cannot afford to put all their eggs in one basket. They must invest in other businesses besides the entertainment business.
The "prejudice and fears of many uninformed conservatives" toward the subject of Indian Casinos? Well now, that's about all this prejudiced, fearful, uninformed conservative needs to know right there.
But because this "casino binge" is a "temporary thing," Nelson understands that Indians have to diversify. In other words, this casino thing is not a temporary thing at all, it is, quite to the contrary, and if "wise" Indian leaders have anything to do with it, a long term business venture which the Indian nations have no plans to abandon, only to build upon. Mr. Nelson has secretly confided to Dr. Yeagley (but doesn't say anything about his plans on his campaign website) that he believes Oklahoma has to work with the Indian nations on diversifying in get-rich-quick money making schemes -- you know, cut backdoor deals with them (reduced taxes and whatnot). Look out Oklahoma, if this Republican is elected Pyramid schemes may, for the first time in Oklahoma's history, become legal (Indian) means for making money. And of course it's essential to our State's economic growth that Oklahoma's government work with the Indian nations to make these business schemes legal, at least for Indians.
One last word about "Indian money." I've written about this before, but when I was in Alaska in the early 1990s, there was a push for "homosexual rights" in the state, and more locally in Anchorage. One of the things that homosexuals (and their advocates) engaged in at the time was to attempt to show what a great economic contribution homosexuals were making to the local economy. One way in which they did this was to deface any money that came into their possession by whatever means with a stamp that read "gay money." Indeed, for a time it seemed that virtually all paper currency circulating in the Anchorage area was "gay money," if you were to take what was stamped on it at "face value." That in itself should be enough to illustrate the stupidity of using the term "Indian money." But perhaps Dr. Yeagley would like to start a similar campaign with his Indian brethren and their casino money?
Sorry dad. The more Indians speak, the more I dislike them, notwithstanding all that Chickasaw, Choctaw and Cherokee blood that runs through these veins. I know, I know, my Indian ancestors bought and paid for all this ... stuff. Right.

Hi all, this is your Thursday dose of "Three Bullet Thursday", a quick list of yoga lifestyle information I'm processing. If you are a yoga teacher, yoga student, vegetarian, philosopher, lover of metaphysics, or just …
Category: Yoga Philosophy
An enthusiasm for the study of yoga philosophy is something that just sort of happens to people. You go to a yoga class because you heard it gives you six-pack abs and beautifully sculpted shoulders and the next thing you know, you are talking about how the 8 Limbs of Yoga play out in your daily life.
Your introduction to yoga philosophy begins with the Bhagavad Gita, Light on Yoga, and Be Here Now. You pick up a copy of The Yoga Sutras of Patanjali and immediately put it back down because no one has time to crack the code on that one, but you are still all in.
Offered here are stories related to the practical application of yoga philosophy. Most of this content focuses on the first two limbs of yoga, the yamas and the niyamas as they are personal codes of conduct aimed at self realization.
Eight Limbs of Yoga
- Yama-the restraints
- Niyama-the observances
- Asana-the postures
- Pranayama-the control and expansion of energy
- Pratyahara-the sense withdrawal
- Dharana-the concentration
- Dhyana-the meditation
- Samadhi-the self realization
The Yamas & Niyamas: An Ethical Guide to Life
The five yamas are self-regulating behaviors designed to aid our interactions with others and the world at large. They are :
- Ahimsa: nonviolence
- Satya: truthfulness
- Asteya: non-stealing
- Brahmacharya: non-excess (often interpreted as celibacy)
- Aparigraha: non-possessiveness, non-greed.
The five niyamas, are personal practices that influence our inner selves. They are:
- Saucha: purity
- Santosha: contentment
- Tapas: self-discipline, training your senses
- Svadhyaya: self-study, inner exploration
- Ishvara Pranidhana: surrender (to God)

Crew and passengers on a whale-watching tour in the Bay of Fundy off Long Island last week had an unexpected encounter.
They spotted and photographed a bowhead whale, an Arctic-dwelling species that doesn't usually come this far south.
Capt. Todd Sollows of Pirate's Cove Whale and Seabird Cruises in Tiverton first thought it was a rare North Atlantic right whale when the mammal was spotted last Wednesday.
"I was heading for three humpbacks and spotted it and thought it looked kind of odd because it was acting differently," said Sollows, who has been doing whale-watching tours for 23 years.
As he came closer he couldn't see any callosities — the telltale callouses that identify right whales.
"It was turning away from us and definitely wasn't used to boats and didn't want to be watched," Sollows said.
He told the guide to take some pictures, because "it was the queerest looking right whale I've ever seen. Then I said, kind of jokingly, 'unless it's a bowhead,' and laughed it off because I've never heard tell of bowheads in the Bay of Fundy."
He was talking to whale researchers from the New England Aquarium, stationed in Lubec, Maine, and descibed what he had seen and sent down photos.
"They said, 'Oh, funny you should mention that, because we saw a bowhead last week.'"
He said it's quite obvious looking at the photos, "but at the time you're thinking that it doesn't make sense that it could be a bowhead."
He said he has only seen one of the whales before in pictures, and can add it to the list of unusual visitors he has spotted that also includes a blue whale.
"You never know what you're going to see in the Bay of Fundy I guess."
The bowhead's normal range doesn't bring it much farther south than Baffin Island, so a sighting in the Bay of Fundy is most unusual, says Dalhousie University professor Hal Whitehead.
While the Basque whalers were taking bowheads in the Strait of Belle Isle and along the north shore of the Gulf of St. Lawrence in the 16th century, "they're almost never seen south of northern Labrador these days."
The bowhead is a relative of the right whale and eats plankton, but Whitehead doesn't think the whale in the Bay of Fundy was following food.
"I would say it was lost, the poor thing," he said. "They're closely associated, or near to ice, so this is the wrong move. The ice is disappearing from a lot of their normal habitat in the summer months, but what's left is north, not south."
He said he hasn't heard of a bowhead in Nova Scotia waters or even south of Newfoundland in recent times.
He said more is known about the bowhead whales in the western Arctic because they migrate south past Alaska, "but the eastern Arctic ones are much more of a mystery."
He said he suspects that the whale would have to make its way back north to survive because the food supply will dry up in the fall, when right whales move south again. He's not sure it will survive the trip here, let alone if it follows the right whales south.
"That bowhead may be eating the same plankton that the right whales are in the Bay of Fundy and that may do it fine for a while, but that food source disappears in a few months. The right whales go south, and hopefully this guy will go north to where there are other bowheads."
He said younger whales are the more likely ones to be lost.

Not a whole lot is in bloom yet, but I think things should look better next week!
For now, the only native bloomers are Allegheny spurge (above), Labrador violets, and Pennsylvania sedge. I hope to see some spring ephemerals in the side yard soon, but not much yet.
Among the non-natives I've planted just to see some early spring color:
hyacinths (standard and grape)
scilla & chionodoxa in the front yard (below)

No more standin' upside the walls
I have got myself together baby, now I'm havin' a ball
Long as you groove it, there's always a chance
Somebody's watching, I'm gonna make romance
Move your body, move baby, dance all night

There's six girls left so Flav brings out the big guns. He flies Brigitte Neilsen into town to get to know the girls a little better. And to really get the dirt, Brigitte has set up a lie detector test for the Flavorettes. After grilling the girls, Brigitte takes them out on the town where the sparks really begin to fly. Over brunch the next day, Brigitte downloads Flav over who he should keep and who he should lose in the upcoming elimination. It's a sweetly strange reunion, folks, with a surprise ending even we didn't see coming.

EC Opens Public Consultation on Unconventional Energy Sources
The European Commission has launched a procedure to gather the opinions of the public regarding the pros and cons of exploiting unconventional energy sources.
The consultation procedure, set to last until March 20, 2013, seeks the opinions primarily of stakeholders, such as the oil and gas sector, environmental organizations, and geology experts.
But any concerned party is invited to take part in the survey, which has been published at this address.
The consultation is motivated with new opportunities to exploit unconventional fossil fuels such as "shale gas, tight gas, coal bed methane, tight oil or shale oil."
The EC states that however such developments need to be implemented only "with proper health, climate and environmental safeguards in place and under maximum legal clarity and predictability for both citizens and operators."
There has been widespread concern that the production of shale gas and oil from tar sands in particular poses grave environmental effects.
Several EU countries have moved to ban shale gas production due to environmental concerns, with France and Bulgaria having already implemented the ban.

Lilac + Coral
Bailey has been coming along on many photo shoots lately. She has been managing to make her way outside and sneak into the car. While my mother was taking some photos of me she jumped onto my lap to join in on the fun. She is definitely NOT camera shy.
I absolutely love my new vintage Ralph Lauren umbrella. Isn't it cute? My mother purchased it at a yard sale.
One of my favorite color combination's as of late is lilac and coral. They are such striking colors and go perfectly together! Purple is one of my favorite colors and just so happens to be one of the best looking colors with my skin tone. I found this dress at Salvation Army and fell in love with how it looked. A friend of mine showed me this beautiful coral lipstick and I just had to have it. I put this look together before buying the dress based on the color combination. I really love how the finished product came together. Perfect for this warmer weather, right?
What I wore:
Lilac dress, thrifted at Salvation Army.
Vintage slip
White Mountain Clogs
Vintage Ralph Lauren Umbrella
Coral lipstick, volcanic, It goes on sooo smooth.)
What are some color combination's you've been enjoying lately? I'd love to hear! I have been trying to wear more color. For a while I was stuck in a black and white rut. Not that I don't LOVE black and white, I absolutely do... however, color is so much fun and perfect for the warmer seasons!
Kala Noel.

So I've been on Face Book for maybe a month. And I have joined two causes. The first is "Justice for Tyler McMillion".
Today his dad pled guilty to second degree murder. He is going to testify in his wife's trial and after that he will be sentenced. This boy's dad and his stepmother tied him outside to a tree to disipline him. (Haven't heard what the boy did to deserve it.) It was on one of the hottest days we had last year. And the air was filled with smoke from the fire near the Outer Banks. He was tied to the tree all night and most of the next day. Late in the afternoon the stepmother called 911. He died from dehydration and heat stoke. They say his body was bitten by insects. It made me sick when I heard it and I have not forgotten him. Last Friday was the one year anniversary of his death.
The other cause I have joined is the Fire David Letterman website. I think the "jokes" he made at the expence of Sarah Palin and her two daughters is a slam at women everywhere. Imus was fired from CBS for saying "Nappy". I agree he should have been fired. Now I think Dave should be fired also.
It is time to stand up and let the sponsers of his show know how upset we are over his remarks. No wonder there is so much violence against women and girls in this country. If you are interested there is a website here.

More Info About My Practice
I also teach at various graduate programs and community mental health clinics, write poetry and professional articles, and read deeply in a number of subjects. I'm always happy to make book recommendations, but I've learned there are many ways to learn other than books! Feminism, social justice, and gender issues also inform my work. Mindfulness and spirituality are ways of being that I am happy to discuss and share if wanted.
Specific Issue(s) I'm Skilled at Helping With
I'm quite good at assessing quickly, creating a plan, and being transparent. I don't have magical powers, but I can talk about the variables that affect an outcome and dialog with you about your openness to trying different things.
Important Factors for Choosing a Therapist
I strongly encourage you to follow your intuition regarding whether you connect with a therapist. I encourage people to choose a few people and meet with all of them to have some options. Across all psychotherapy research, the experience of the therapist and the relationship with the therapist are the most positive predictors of a good therapy experience. Whether or not they are trained in various modalities with multiple initials is not necessarily important unless that is a consideration for you.

GBBOTC15 #2: Never gon' Arlette you down
In case you missed it, this week's technical challenge is a biscuitty delight of puff pastry, sugar and cinnamon called an 'Arlette'.

Transgressive, 2013
You don't give an album a title like Holy Fire without having something epic and spacious waiting underneath the shrink wrap. They always tell us not to judge a record by its cover, or for that matter, by the words on that cover, but I'd wager that no one went into Born to Run expecting an acoustic singer/songwriter record, or cracked the seal on Achtung Baby without realizing that its technicolor sleeve was the introduction to a new decade, a new style, a new U2. Album covers and titles are the first ways for an artist to make an impression, the first chance they have to announce a shift in direction or sound, or to tell fans to check their expectations at the door. And with Holy Fire, everything—from the evocative words, to the horses-washed-by-the-waves cover art, to the thrilling build-up of the "Prelude" track—screams "big." By the time proper opener "Inhaler" breaks into its booming, earth-shaking riff a couple minutes in, frontman Yannis Philippakis bellowing his soon-to-be-trademark battle cry of "I can't get enough space" over a chaotic hurricane of noise, we know we're in for a ride.
From the start, Holy Fire is a record that demands to be played at maximum volume. Those who have invested in pricey car stereos or high quality headphones will find a lot to love here, a sonic feast to sink into and get lost in with each listen. The high-rise atmosphere of "Everytime" blends U2-esque "helicopter" guitars with modern dance-floor textures, while the more balladic "Late Night" remains rich with deep bass tones as it crescendos to a near-orchestral peak, a dirty guitar solo flitting through the right speaker. "Out of the Woods" continues the U2 comparisons, its foregrounded musical flourishes landing somewhere between the iconic keyboard riff of "New Year's Day" and the church-filling symphonies of The Unforgettable Fire. And the glorious "Bad Habit" rotates between moments of full-blown club-rock and pure, yelping desolation, Philippakis' reverb-soaked vocals and drummer Jack Bevan's rapidfire fills marking the changes.
Undoubtedly, a good deal of Holy Fire's success is owed to the production team of Flood and Alan Moulder, longtime vets who have previously worked together on records from the likes of The Smashing Pumpkins, The Killers, and U2. But where each of those acts have swung towards the big leagues with massive choruses, revealing earnestness, and near-mythical pop star swagger, Foals take a different route. And that's not to say that Holy Fire is bereft of hooks, since plenty of its best songs have the potential to lodge themselves in your brain. "My Number" is particularly catchy, bouncing along with an earworm backing vocal hook destined to soundtrack the next wave of cellphone commercials. And the Mutemath-esque "Milk & Black Spiders" gets more exhilarating with each passing second, the band slowly cranking up the volume to swallow the song's melodic refrain in their swell.
But more often, Foals forego traditional verse-chorus dynamics for the arty complexity of their math rock lineage or the sweaty spontaneity of their EDM influences. The meandering song structures do wonders for the band—see the icy, chaotic rush of "Providence," or the jagged, thumping heartbeat-guitar bleeps that mark the sepulchral closer, "Moon"—to the point where Philippakis' repetitious, often cliche-ridden lyrics are rendered almost inconsequential. There may come a day when Foals shoot for the emotional bombast of the stadium-baiting bands they are so clearly trying to emulate here. But for now, they're merely peddlers of sonic splendor, and there's absolutely nothing wrong with that. Still, Holy Fire is the kind of album that could easily run together if used for nothing more than background music. These songs demand attention like they demand volume; they require the space of repeat listens and the privilege of high fidelity audio presentation. But man, as soon as that riff kicks in on "Inhaler" and the song blows wide open, I don't see why anyone wouldn't want to give these guys the time they deserve.

Do companies have a right to require their workers to speak only English on the job?
The Clinton administration believes that English-only work rules violate federal law that protects workers against discrimination based on national origin.
Meanwhile, the Supreme Court has decided to shy away from that polarizing debate for now.
On Monday, the Supreme Court refused to hear a California case involving English-only work rules. That inaction let stand a 2-1 appeals-court decision that allows employers to impose English-only rules on the job. That ruling, though, applies only to the nine Western states in that federal district.

In a recent interview Dame Dash shared the behind-the-scenes story of how Jay Z's "Brooklyn's Finest" featuring The Notorious B.I.G. came to fruition. The mogul explained how they got Biggie into the studio, how long it took the late rapper to record his verse, and more. Before telling the story of how it came about Dash said that he deserves some production credit, "My favorite record was the one I produced with Clark Kent. Clark would try to act like I didn't produce it-you should call him at some point, but it's called "Brooklyn's Finest.'"
The mogul explained how the rappers linked in the studio saying
It was a whole lot to get Biggie in the studio, we didn't know each other. We would be like, 'Yo, come through.' Because we heard that he said that he knew Jay, but Jay didn't really know him. But he came through one day and I got ridiculously drunk at the video set of 'Dead Presidents'…So, that day I went to Daddy's House and spoke to Un (Rivera) and Biggs, and I was like 'Yo, forget all that. Lets get some money.'
Dame went on to explain that he told Hov not to rap first but Jay didn't listen.
"Biggie took four months to put his verse down. It took a while. But it was dope because we got to hang out, and Cease would roll like 60 blunts before we started thinking about playing music
explained Dash.

Legacy Assurance Plan of America's for Estate Planning – When famed actor Mickey Rooney died earlier this year, some reports estimated his estate to be worth as little as $18,000. That, however, did not stop Rooney's family from fighting about the actor's will. This is not necessarily surprising as, sometimes, it is the smallest estates that produce the biggest estate battles after the testator dies.
So, what can you do to avoid a messy situation or painful showdown over your assets after you die? One thing is to communicate with your loved ones. By sharing your wishes with everyone affected by the terms of your will or living trust, you can minimize the chance of an uncomfortable surprise. You should also be certain that your estate planning documents communicate clearly about why you made your choices. If you are leaving a loved one nothing because you gave that person gifts of significant value during your lifetime, spelling out that reasoning can potentially be beneficial, both for that loved one and for a court, if a legal challenge occurs.
You should clearly mention all of your children, and make some provision for them. Even if you do not wish to leave them an inheritance, leaving them a nominal amount, such as $1, may help avoid problems. That's because, if you make no provision for a child, he/she can claim in court that the omission was an oversight, and that he/she is entitled to a fraction of your total estate in accordance with the portion stated in your state's statutes.
Both wills and living trusts can be challenged in court. These cases are generally difficult for the challenging party to win. The person mounting the challenge must show that you were mentally incompetent when you created your will or trust, that you were under the improper influence of another person when you made your will or trust or that your estate plan was the product of fraud. Communicating clearly about the goals, objectives and reasons for your plan is especially important if you are disinheriting immediate relatives, are providing a substantial inheritance to distant relatives or non-relatives, or maqke changes to your plan on your "death-bed."
If you are concerned that a loved one may be dissatisfied with the size of his/her inheritance, one possible option is a "no-contest" clause. A no-contest clause potentially dissuades beneficiaries from challenging your estate plan by saying that, if a beneficiary goes to court, then that beneficiary does not get his/her inheritance, but instead gets a nominal amount, like $1. No-contest clauses are not legally enforceable in all states, however.
Summary: There is no such thing as a "bulletproof" estate plan that cannot be challenged in court. However, there are steps, both legal and non-legal, that you can take to reduce the likelihood that anyone would choose to challenge your plan and you can get help from Legacy Assurance Plan Of America. The key to most of these steps is clear communication, so that your estate planning desires and objectives, along with your state of mind, are clear to your loved ones, and to a court if your plan becomes the subject of a challenge

Sen. Mike Huckabee will not be the Republican candidate, but that's ok - there's always a book deal.
Are we seriously in a world where anyone with 15 minutes of fame gets to write a book about it?
Huckabee's book, not yet titled, will be available on November 18. 11 days after the new president will be decided. It will chronical his insights on running for office and how he thinks the conservative movement should be remodeled.
Despite the fact that he barely gained 300 delegates, he lead a solid campaign but at no time did he pose a threat to Sen. McCain who locked up the nomination fairly soon.
Why does the Penguin Group (who is publishing the book) care about his insights on the conservative movement? I think that the publishers are hoping that Huckabee will become McCain's running mate and that will boost sales of the book should they win.
Huckabee's 1998 book "Kids Who Kill" was highly scrutinized as people said that he was cashing in on the Columbine shootings.
Huckabee has published two other books as well: "From Hope to Higher Ground" about his policy views ranging from taxes to education, and "Quit Digging Your Grave With a Knife and Fork" offering dieting tips that helped him loose a 100 lbs.
One must wonder how will this book reflect the views of certain lobbyists in Washington. Will he remain true to the "untold stories of the campaign trail" or will it turn into a puff piece that will cater to the ideals of the people who contributed money toward the campaign.
Hilary Clinton was in a similar position a few years ago when she accepted an $8 million advance to write her book. But in the Senate Ethics Manual it said that senators could not receive any payments in advance. The Ethics Committee, however, ended up approving the advance even though it came from a company owned by Viacom. Viacom has many issues that are likely to come up before Congress.
The Penguin Group is a company that I do not believe would ask for any favors from Huckabee, but I am a firm believer in the saying, "If you want to know a man's priorities, look at who gives him money."

Warning to Windows Users
The odds are much higher than you probably imagine.
And, if your system has been compromised, you are probably part of a botnet. From the linked article: "It has been estimated that up to one quarter of all personal computers connected to the internet are part of a botnet."
If your computer is part of a botnet, it can be used to attack servers on the internet, including commercial and military targets.
Now, here is where it gets interesting. "If the United States found itself under a major cyberattack aimed at undermining the nation's critical information infrastructure, the Department of Defense is prepared, based on the authority of the president, to launch a cyber counterattack or an actual bombing of an attack source."
Yes sir - use Microsoft Windows, and the US DOD will drop a bomb on your house. You have been warned.

our garden and more of the sweet peas
I say our garden, but to be honest, its my garden. R is deeply not into flowers. This is the man who didn't notice a church full of flowers on Easter day. Mind you, for a man with no interest in such things, he takes great interest on my behalf, and always takes time to listen to my ramblings about plants.
which is why I pay attention when he talks about selling TV's.
The garden looks lovely at the moment:
Its not very big, just a back yard really, but I have been filling it with lovely things, and there's so much to look forward to. The clematis is preparing to flower:
And today I put the sweet peas in that dad gave me yesterday:
Our street is named after an Italian town, and although the back yard is hardly an Italian garden, and it doesn't really have that much sun… I'm going to sit on the step and eat my pasta lunch all the same 🙂

Yes, I know, they only got second place. And second place is the first loser. But a silver medal in the Olympics is nothing to shake a stick at, especially considering nobody thought the Americans would even medal before the tournament started.
This is pretty similar to what I wrote about the Jets losing the AFC championship game. While the ultimate goal in any tournament is to be the last man standing, sometimes you have to accept failure when you've already exceeded expectations. I can't believe I just wrote that.
But honestly, what American isn't proud of how their boys competed in the Olympics? They shocked Canada and the rest of the hockey world with their 5-3 win in the qualifying round and showed that wasn't a fluke the second time around.
Down 2-0 in the second period, lots of fans were thinking this game was headed to blowout status. But the only people that mattered, the ones on the ice, were thinking they had over a period to at least send this game to overtime. And while it took them almost the whole 60 minutes, they were able to do just that.
My Facebook news feed was flooded with pro-American sentiment and "I <3 Zach Parise" status updates after his goal with under 30 seconds left tied the game for the U.S. They had all the momentum heading into overtime and Patrick Kane even said he thought they were going to win the gold after Parise's goal.
Although Sidney Crosby's goal early in overtime took all the wind out of the American sails, nobody can say that they were disappointed by the effort the U.S. put forth. That was by far the worst goal Ryan Miller had allowed in the whole tournament; anytime you get beat five-hole it's somewhat embarrassing. But considering Miller was the major reason behind the first-round upset of Canada and the Americans performance throughout the Olympics, it's hard to place the blame on him.
I watched almost every minute of each American game in this tournament, despite the fact that I don't watch hockey. I will always support the country that has given me so much, especially when athletes represent it as well as the U.S. hockey team was able to.
The 2010 olympic hockey team will go down as winners in my book, despite falling short of the ultimate prize. And coming from somebody as ultra-competitive as I am, that's an extremely high compliment.

This lead me to the other problem with BE. As more and more people join my traffic has been decreasing anyway, even with surfing other blogs for several hours a day. It is the classic case of diminishing returns. When I surf I seem to hit the same pages over and over even though you are only supposed to see a page a max of once a day.
Then this past week we experienced the "Ratings Controversy." It seemed like every other blog I visited people were suddenly complaining about their ratings, and who rated them what. It was so childish and really detracted from what I like about reading other peoples blogs. I am begining to think that BE is burning me out on blogging...
With this in mind I have decided to stop surfing BE for a while and see how much traffic I get from BE as a baseline, with no action from me. In a few days I will make a decision as to wether or not I will leave BE. What do you BE users think about this? Have you seen any of the things I am talking about?

You are probably right that many people just wait for the 30 sec countdown and then click away.
I have done it a few times, but if the blog seems interesting right away I read at least a couple of posts.
- Drunken Samurai said...
It is really hard to tell how long someone is on the blog. My hit counter registers most BE hits as less than 5 sec which is not possible. They certainly aren't spending alot of time.
In the end I is probably my fault - I should be edgier - more in your face!
- Andrea said...
I hear ya! I feel much the same about BE and am not sure I'll really spend much time surfing with it because most of my favorite links are found through links on blogs I'm already reading and enjoying. Mind you, I may not have seen and enjoyed your blog without it :-D
- Madley said...
I'm officially an addict... and have read lots of things I never would have gotten to otherwise. I decided not to care about the hits or ratings, just about collecting good blogs to continually read! Will be watching for your results...

Gender Differences in Cooperation and Competition
Empirical evidence indicates that females earn lower wages than men with similar abilities, and that there are fewer women in management positions than in administrative ones. In this chapter we will examine the factors that have been proposed in the experimental literature to explain these differences from three distinct perspectives:
We begin with a revision of the literature analyzing, from the supply side, gender differences in preferences to compete, cooperate, and social preferences. These are possible contributing factors that may reduce female participation in the labor market. Subsequently, we study the influencing factors from the demand side, such as discrimination and group perception in terms of gender. Finally, we discuss the extent to which these differences can be explained by education: that is, people's social conditioning, and to what extent they are given by nature. While nature deals with physiological and evolutionary differences, education deals with the effects environment has on our behavior. We summarize the main results in the conclusions.
The supply side
The demand side, and
The role of society in terms of biological inheritance.
