1966 - August 17
|Not that you have to submit yourself blindly. Although your spiritual master may be self-realized and experienced in the Absolute Truth, still, you have to question. You have to understand from him all critical points by your intelligent questions. That is allowed. So it doesn't matter. If anyone is able to answer about the science of Kṛṣṇa, he is spiritual master. He is spiritual master. It doesn't matter where he's born or what he is, whether he's a brāhmaṇa, or a śūdra, or an American or an Indian or whatever he is. Never mind.
|When I speak of Krsna, you must remember that I am speaking of God. There are millions of names of God in different parts of the world, but Krsna is the supreme name according to Vedic knowledge.
|We require hundreds and thousands of spiritual masters who have understood this Krsna science and preach all over the world.
|Just like children, they are born after the conjugation of the father and mother, similarly, the father is God; the material world is the mother. We have got this body just like the child gets his body from the mother's womb. The father is the seed-giver. Similarly, as spiritual souls, we are part and parcel of the Supreme Lord, but we are put into this material world because we wanted to enjoy this material world.
1968 - August 17
|Neither any material opulence, nor a qualified brahmana with twelve high qualifications can satisfy the Lord simply by such acquisition. One can satisfy the Lord simply by love and devotional service.
| Nectar Drops from Srila Prabhupada
|"In order to instruct us the principle that everything belongs to God, this is the beginning, that we should try to offer whatever we have got. Kṛṣṇa is ready to accept from you a little bit of water, little bit of flower, a little bit of leaf, or fruit. Practically there's no value, but when you begin to give to Kṛṣṇa, then gradually a time will come when you'll be prepared to give everything to Kṛṣṇa like the gopīs. This is the process. Sarvātmanā. Sarvātmanā. Sarvātmanā means with everything. That is our natural life. When we are in consciousness that 'Nothing belongs to me. Everything belongs to God, and everything is meant for God's enjoyment, not for my sense enjoyment'. that is called Kṛṣṇa consciousness."

|Today they will observe Vyasa Puja ceremony (my Birthday Anniversary), so from this day, I will be stepping on the 73rd year. I hope the remaining days of my life may be utilized to serve you all Western devotees of Krishna. Please pray to Krishna that he may give me the necessary strength to discharge the duty entrusted by my Spiritual Master.
|If in future coal industry is developed and if it is required, the government may at once ask us to vacate and no law can stop it. Even if the government does not acquire our land, if in our vicinity some such industry (coal or oil industry) is started, the whole idea of Vrindaban will fade away. Vrindaban conception is a transcendental village, without any botheration of the modern industrial atmosphere.
|My idea of developing New Vrindaban is to create an atmosphere of spiritual life where people in bona fide order of social division, namely, Brahmacaris, Grhasthas, Vanaprastha, Sannyasis, or specifically Brahmacaris and Sannyasis, and Vanaprasthas, will live there independently, completely depending on agricultural produce and milk from the cows. The life should be simplified without being hampered by laboring day and night for economic development, without any spiritual understanding.
|The New Vrindaban idea is that persons who live there will accept the bare necessities of life to maintain the body and soul together and the major part of time should be engaged in development of Krishna Consciousness. The whole Vedic principle is to develop Krishna Consciousness, without creating much botheration for the program of sense gratification. Industrial development (or mining industry) in the neighboring places will mar the whole idea.
|Yesterday, Mukunda and Gurudasa were telling me that the man known as Asoka Fakir, now living in San Francisco, is advertising himself that the members of our temple are all his disciples. This man has written me letter also, from which I can understand that he is a hodge-podge man. He is not a pure devotee of Krishna, neither his behavior is quite up to the standard. Therefore you should warn all our devotees not to mix with this man very intimately.
1969 - August 17
|You write that you have desire to avail of my association again, but why do you forget that you are always in association with me? When you are helping my missionary activities I am always thinking of you and you are always thinking of me. That is real association. Just like I always think of my Guru Maharaja every moment, although He is not physically present, and because I am trying to serve Him to my best capacity, I am sure He is helping me by His spiritual blessings.
|The only thing wanted is that we should work very sincerely, with full faith in Krishna and the Spiritual Master. Then all help will come automatically.
|Regarding celebrations of other holidays, they will be described as to how they should be celebrated in future memos to all of the temples.
|I was very glad to learn from Upendra's letter that you have lectured nicely, and improve this preaching habit. Kirtana means whatever we hear from the Spiritual Master we repeat it again nicely. One who can reproduce the sound vibration heard from the Spiritual Master, he will be a good preacher.
|You just try to improve the Seattle temple conjointly with Upendra. I was very glad to learn from Upendra's letter that you have lectured nicely, and improve this preaching habit. Kirtana means whatever we hear from the Spiritual Master we repeat it again nicely. One who can reproduce the sound vibration heard from the Spiritual Master, he will be a good preacher.
1970 - August 17
|Now you have such a good daughter who is naturally devotee of Krsna, so if you kindly continue to advance on these lines as I have already chalked out for you your perfection of life in Krsna's service is guaranteed.
|I am glad that you are getting good collections also and there is good prospect of getting more. So if we work sincerely keeping faith in Krsna and Spiritual Master there will be no difficulty at all in our preaching work.
|I do not know why Sri Caitanya Research Institute has falsely declared to the Chief Controller of Import and Export that the Murtis were donated by them while that is not a fact. There were five pairs of Murtis, one pair being donated by Dalmia-Jayan Trust and the other four pairs being donated by the Birla Trust.
1971 - August 17
|I don't say that your religion is cheating or my religion is bona fide. I don't say that. We have no right to say that. I want to see... "I" means, we are Bhāgavata. We are representative of bhāgavata-dharma. Or Bhāgavata wants to see. Any religion you may profess—it doesn't matter—I want to see whether you have got the result of religion. The result of religion is you will love God. That is result of religion.
|In our institution, International Society for Krishna Consciousness, although I am the head, still, I have got so many assistants, the GBC members. They are assisting me, departmental. Somebody is here, somebody is there. Similarly, God has departmental management, and because it is such a huge affair, there are... What is a koṭi? Koṭi means ten million? Huh? Ten millions multiplied by thirty-three.
|To save this human civilization, these two classes are required very urgently. So you American boys and girls, you are intelligent, you have got all facilities. At least in your country, create these two classes, brāhmaṇa and kṣatriya. The world will be saved, and you will be saved, and Kṛṣṇa will be pleased. Brāhmaṇa's business means that people should know what is God, what is our relationship with Him. That is brāhmaṇa's... And kṣatriya's business is to give protection to the people so that may all know what is God.
|It is very encouraging that you are getting prominent men of Calcutta to sign the invitation to Indira Gandhi. In the meantime I have induced the high commissioner in London to request her in the same way. So try to induce Indira Gandhi your best to attend the cornerstone ceremony.
|Our principle is not to work like the karmi or under a karmi. We are not sudras. Sudras are meant for working under somebody, not brahmanas. If you do not know this principle, you should know it now. All our men living in the temple are basically brahmanas. Otherwise, why they are offered sacred thread?
|Your ideas for toys are nice, but I don't think that is a very sound proposal. You have to engage your time in that way where you could better be selling magazines and books. That is better utility of your valuable time. Our Krishna Conscious children are not very much after toys and playthings. They are given from the very beginning beads and they are happy chanting in that way.
1972 - August 17
| Nectar Drops from Srila Prabhupada
| "If you say, 'Why you are interested to save the human society?' That is Kṛṣṇa's business. Kṛṣṇa wants, God wants, that 'All these living entities, they should come back home, back to Godhead. Why they are suffering?' Therefore Kṛṣṇa comes personally.
Kṛṣṇa is very anxious. We are suffering here, rotting here. We are sons of Kṛṣṇa. Kṛṣṇa does not like to see that we shall rot here. He wants, 'Come back home, dance with Me, eat with Me'. But these rascals will not go. They will stick here: 'No, sir. It is very good here. I shall become hog and eat stool. That is very pleasant'. So this is position."
|720817 - Lecture SB 01.02.14 - Los Angeles
|Social system should be organized in such a way that automatically people become interested in the ultimate goal of life. That is civilization. This is not civilization, simply animal propensities: eat voraciously and sleep twenty hours and have sex life without any restriction and have atom bomb for the defense. That's all, finished, civilization.
|I shall speak on Bhagavad-gītā As It Is. The purpose of saying Bhagavad-gītā as it is, explained, that there are many editions of Bhagavad-gītā, they have interpreted in their own way, giving up the spirit of Bhagavad-gītā. So this particular name, "As It Is," significant. Perhaps there is no other edition of Bhagavad-gītā where it is written, "As It Is."
1973 - August 17
|Kṛṣṇa is there within your heart. As soon as you become little serious, immediately, Kṛṣṇa is ready. Kṛṣṇa is ready, He is sitting with you as a friend. Simply looking for the opportunity when you'll come back to Him. That is Kṛṣṇa. He's always sitting with you. But we are not willing to go back to home, back to Godhead. We want to become God in this material world. This is our position.
|All living entities, they are individual persons. Just like you are a person, I am a person, the dog is also person, a cow is also person—everyone is individual. But Bhagavān means the Supreme Person.
|Syamasundara Prabhu is still unable to pay because the things are not sold yet. Let us wait & see.
|I have appointed these GBC men to oversee and manage all the affairs of the society giving me relief to do my translation work fully.
|I am referring your letter to Satsvarupa Goswami since he is the GBC Secretary for your zone. I have made him in charge of Gurukula so he is competent to answer your question, please write to him in matters of management.
1974 - August 17
|Our saṅkīrtana movement is increasing in every country. Europe, America, even in Africa, Canada, everywhere. Why? Caitanya Mahāprabhu, when He was traveling in South India, He was chanting Hare Kṛṣṇa mantra. So somebody heard Him chanting this mantra, he became purified, and he went back to his village, he also began to chant. So another person who heard him, he became purified. It is such a nice thing.
|I am very pleased that you have gone to that place simply on my order, alone, to preach the message of Lord Caitanya. I like this kind of spirit in you very much. You know I went to your country also alone, in old age, because of the order given to me by my spiritual master.
|I get great pleasure when I see my own disciples from America going to far off places leaving their rich nation with all facilities and their families, to preach. The secret of success in spiritual life is to satisfy one's spiritual master. This is the essence. You have captured this. So now go on in this way and do not falter.
|I have accepted the following students as my initiated disciples, and their spiritual names are as follows: Walter - Vanasancari das; Miguel - Munipriya das; Elba - Adhara das; Thais - Tadakari das; Janoski - Jayahatakosthaka das, Magaly—Manohara dasi; Americo—Adhari das; Guillermo—Gopa das, Rafael—Rasakeli dasi; Ramon—Rajivalicana das; Orasess—Prabhudas; Miguel Angel—Mantri das; Fernando—Kutahanta das; Georgina—Jaladhosa dasi; Malena—Mathura dasi.
1975 - August 17
|This distribution of books to the libraries is very encouraging. Please expand this program all over India. In one library carrying my books, hundreds of people will be able to read.
|Upon your recommendation I am accepting the following as my initiated disciples and their spiritual names are as follows: Barbara Wolfe—Vedanta dasi; Janet Cleaver—Viduttama dasi; Kurt Cleaver—Sarvasaksi dasa; Florence Walldeck—Vedapriya dasi; Carlos Ordenoz—Nityodita dasa; Gary Williams—Rsi Kumar dasa; Jeff Long—MahaRudra dasa; Jeff Wiseman—Atmabhu dasa; Jeff Daniels—Visvamohan dasa; Eileen Daniels—Vinalangi dasi; Karen Bogdonoff—Janani dasi.
|You may construct a library and a meditation hall to please the donors, but as far as possible the library should carry our books and books of other Vaisnava acaryas.
1976 - August 17
|It is a very dangerous type of civilization without any spiritual knowledge. Very, very dangerous position. Risky. So this Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement on authoritative basis trying to enlighten people to release him from these clutches of māyā and ignorance. This is Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement. And it is authorized because we are speaking on the basis of Bhagavad-gītā. On the basis of Vedic knowledge. And Bhagavad-gītā is the essence of Vedic knowledge.
|Just like we are opening the temple. This is also nitya-līlā. In some brahmāṇḍa there is this opening ceremony of temple. When tomorrow we shall open, day after tomorrow it is opened, but day after tomorrow in some brahmāṇḍa it is being opened. This is nitya-līlā. Some other brahmāṇḍa.
|We have to get ourselves nil of all these material rasas and we have to be situated in the cinmaya. Then our life is perfect. This is Kṛṣṇa consciousness. Rasa is there. Here perverted reflection. My Guru Mahārāja used to say to taste milk in white lime water. White lime water, it looks like milk. But it is not milk. It is different thing. Similarly, we are trying to taste the rasa of milk in lime water. Therefore we are baffled.
|You have neglected. My charge is that you have neglected. Bhagavad-gītā is there. Bhagavad-gītā is spoken in India. Bhagavad-gītā is there. I think every home has got a Bhagavad-gītā. But you do not study; you neglect it. That is your fault.
1977 - August 17
|Eighty-one years will be completed, and eighty-second year will begin. It doesn't matter I leave this body. Even in death I'll live. One year before or one year after... Now as far as possible, I have trained you. Try to follow the principles. And go ahead. Don't be set back by māyā's tricks. Go ahead, forward, at any cost.
|Live like gṛhastha, but don't leave... So remain as gṛhastha and render your service. There is no harm. If one could not proceed, it doesn't matter. Failure is the pillar of success. Then try. Again you shall try.

Lee County receives national recognition for Irma
March 28, 2018
Lee County government has received a national award for its work before, during and after Hurricane Irma....
This is great. However, my families experience was not good. My mother is registered at the special needs shelter due to her 24/7 on oxygen. She registers each year for the last 10 years. Called friday late afternoon day before the hurricaine and they told me they gave her spot away. That it is first come first serve. Then why preregister, Glad I had a contingancy plan that required me to go to Ocala. They need some serious work on more shelters and not turining away special needs people.

iky has come back home
Posted: August 1, 2008 at 7:45 pm
she just could not handle the stress of another change….massive separation anxiety… workable in a younger dog, but at 15? not a great way for iky to spend the last bit of her life. it doesn't really surprise me, not all dogs can fit themselves into even great homes and iky is more high strung and nervous than most, and messing around with ancient ones teetering on the edge is a crap shoot under the best of circumstances. i am hoping her foster family keeps looking til they find a dog that fits well because they really are a very good home and any dog would be lucky to land with them. iky i suppose will hang with us here where we are set up to deal with pretty much anything, including dogs in the middle of a senior melt down.
tunie doesn't seem to be feeling well this evening…she only ate half of her supper and she left some of her apple pieces in there too.
that freaking multi-purpose room is driving me over the edge…we can't even move in there anymore because of the recent donations of bits and bobs that have come in. it is piled high and wall to wall and that is NOT one of the purposes of that room.
early to bed tonight cuz i have to get moving really early tomorrow…no staff again this weekend and quite a few visitors coming thru in the morning before i head to work at noon. my plan is to whip thru the cleaning, get the barn feed and the dog food donations in my van unloaded before 10 am when tiger lily's, tawnie's and sarah's family arrive, and then be ready for the visitors wanting tours arriving soon after that.
best laid plans of mice and men….. but….this place is such an utter mess and it stinks in here tonight….. i bet i do get it done cuz when it is bad, it drives me nutz and i WILL find where that smell is coming from!….the advantage in being quite stubborn is you don't quit til you get it done.
wish me luck that i don't find the source too soon, cuz then i might just stop before i am thru.

RouteMaster Build
ChassisRouteMaster uses a chassis based on 2 stepper motors placed back-to-back with aluminium wheels, and a simple sheet metal chassis holding it all together. The "floor" sheet bolts to the motors and has holes for the castors to sit in. The "roof" sheet has a large hole in the middle to allow the motor wiring to come through, and has a hole in each corner to mount circuit boards onto.
Current SwitchingRM2012 has a power switch module for each motor. This allows for the low current chip signals to switch on (and off) the high current motor coils. The motor coils can draw up to about 2A on each coil, so transistors switch the current from the battery. The switching boards were purchased from Active Robots. I use the "Easy-Step 1000" boards. The 1000 boards have no logic involved, they simply switch the login signals from the chip to the coils in the motors. The "Easy-Step 3000" has an on-board processor that handles all the functions of driving the motors (such as acceleration/deceleration etc), but where is the fun in that?! (They also cost �60 each, and I presume you need one per motor)!
SensorsRM2012 uses 6 ultrasonic sensors (SRF05). Three are used at each end allowing the mouse to "ping" left, right and ahead. The mouse can then simply reverse, and by using the other 3 sensors meaning that it doesn't have to turn 180 degrees if stuck in a dead end. By using logical port numbers to call the sensors, the correct physical port can be addressed depending on the direction of travel. The units use 1 chip port to trigger the action, and to return the resulting distance signal back again. Once downside to these sensors is that you need to allow for about 40ms between pings to allow each ping to die away.
MicroprocessorRM012 currently uses the ATmega32 Development Board from Active Robots as the main controller board. This board has an Atmel Mega32 chip onboard, which provides 32K flash memory, 2K SRAM, 1K EEPROM all running at 16Mhz. The board/chip has up to 3 timers, A/D converters, ISP, Power & 1 user LEDs, User button, pull-up resistors, 31 I/O ports, built-in RS232 connection etc etc. It will be a useful way of developing the basic mouse functions. Eventually I will replace the board with my own circuit and probably use a Mega32 or Mega16 chip.

Proud be the patriotism of the World War II Generation.
So Sad The Song
By Richard Mabey Jr.
My father was of the World War II Generation. My dad served in the Seventh Army Air Corps, during World War II. Dad was stationed right by Pearl Harbor at Hickam Air Field. Dad went Home to be with the Lord nearly 10 years ago.
With the passing of my beloved Dad and so very many of the World War II Generation, we are rapidly losing an entire dictionary of word definitions and phrases.
My dad, my uncles and their friends their ages, used to refer to Country Music as Cowboy Music. You just don't hear that phrase that much, any more.
In the little Mayberry that I grew up in, there was a corner bar about a half-mile from my old homestead. It was smoke-filled and had swinging doors, a jukebox and some bar stools. It was the very kind of place that Merle Haggard sang about in his song "Swinging Doors." I never stepped foot in the place, but from time to time, looked into the swinging doors, on my way home from school when I was a kid. The swinging doors were the very same kind of doors that Miss Kitty had on the Long Branch Saloon. Well, my dad always referred to that bar as a "run down joint." Once again, a phrase that you just don't hear any more.
When my dad was a child, there was no electrical refrigerator in his home. His Grandpa owned and operated a full-blown icehouse that stood along the old Morris Canal. Great Grandpa Mabey used to sell blocks of ice to the canal boat captains as they awaited their turn to ride up the steep hill of Incline Plane Ten East. One of Dad's chores, each day, was to walk the half-mile path from his home at the end of Mabey Lane to his Grandpa's icehouse and bring home a block of ice for the kitchen icebox. Hence, I always remember my dear father refer to the refrigerator as the "ice box." A term that you hardly ever hear in today's modern world.
My father was a deeply religious man. Simply put, he hated alcoholic beverages. I have known a lot of religious leaders; pastors, ministers and priests who justify drinking alcoholic beverages because of the Biblical reference that Jesus turned water into wine. Basically, the hard core truth of the matter is that I have known a lot of closet alcoholics, who just happened to be ministers and priests. My dad didn't buy any of it. Dad had no use for alcoholic beverages. Dad used to refer to alcoholic drinks as "the hard stuff" or "gin mill poison" or "killer moonshine." Once again, you'll hardly ever hear any of those phrases any more.
Another term that I remember my dad, my uncles and their friends use from time to time was the phrase, "Rube Goldberg contraption." Rube Goldberg was a cartoonist and an inventor who lived from 1883 to 1970. Rube's inventions, that he would dream up, would be complicated, extravagant and have a great sense of creativity. Dad would often use this term when he was working on a plumbing project in the old Mabey Homestead. One of my uncles would be helping Dad. The three of us would be down the cellar working on the plumbing. Dad would say something like, "this here two by four's in the way, Edward. We're going to have to Rube Goldberg it here to swing around all these beams here." And Uncle Ed would know exactly what my dad was talking about! Once again, a phrase hardly heard any more.
This is one of my favorites. You hardly ever hear this one in our modern society. Ready for this one? The phrase is "butter and egg man." Here's the gist of it. I grew up in a very small town in northern New Jersey. There was an American Legion Hall right down the street from my house. Every year there would be the big statewide American Legion State Meeting. The officers for that year would go off to Trenton, Atlantic City, Princeton, Cape May or wherever the big statewide meeting was being held that year.
Well, you would have a local storeowner, or the fellow who worked in the canning factory in Paterson, or the local farmer going off to the big city WITHOUT his wife. They would then come home with stories of the wild times they had. Please note that I personally think that most of these "wild times" were pure fiction. But the fellow who came from the little Mayberry, from a rather humble background, and then put on airs in the big city was referred to as the "butter and egg man."
Please do note that I have nothing but respect for the veterans and veterans' fraternal societies. I'm just reflecting upon a cultural phenomenal that I remember from my childhood and youth, growing up in a little Mayberry in New Jersey. Barney Fife would often be guilty of being a "butter and egg man," whenever he and Andy would attend the Annual Statewide Sheriff's Meeting in Raleigh. Once again, you hardly hear of the phrase "butter and egg man" in our modern society.
These are only a few of the very cool phrases that were pretty much the trademark lingo of the beloved World War II Generation. With a bit of a tear in my eye, I admit that as corny as they were, I dearly miss hearing these phrases.

Ryan Moran, founder of the popular Freedom Fastlane Podcast, is only 30 but he's already been in business for 10 years.
"I feel like I came out of the womb an entrepreneur," says the Austin, Texas-based entrepreneur. "Some people just have the itch. I like to say my first business was selling hand-drawn pictures door to door when I was five years old for a penny each. Instead of trick or treating, I knocked on doors."
That trend continued, and when Moran finished high school, he used the $1,000 in monetary gifts he received for graduation to start a business. Tapping what he had learned about HTML from one of his teachers and what he'd taught himself about Google advertising, he created an affiliate marketing business in between attending classes at Indiana Wesleyan University. At the business, he built websites where he generated revenue promoting products of the businesses with which he had affiliate relationships. The business was successful enough to put him through college and leave him with $100,000 in his bank account when he graduated, he says.
That worked well as a dorm-room venture, but Moran eventually had the urge to go bigger with the business. He invested heavily in advertising it and hired employees, but that proved to be a mistake. "There wasn't a real business model behind what I was doing," he says with 20-20 hindsight. "I was just selling things from websites."
Moran quickly ran through his savings and, short of cash, moved into a friend's basement. "My friend was a very successful entrepreneur who encouraged me to take all of the lessons I had learned and build a real business," he says.
To get a fresh start, Moran got in his Kia Sportage, drove to Austin and rented an apartment in 2013. He started the Freedom Fast Lane podcast to raise his profile. "I was able to get in touch with people I wanted to learn from and feature them on the show and ask them the questions I always wanted to ask," he says. Still, he did not view the podcast as his main business.
Where he focused his efforts was on selling physical products. His first business in this area, Zen Active Sports, sold yoga equipment, such as mats, blocks and towels, online—items he knew were in hot demand because of his proximity to Austin's lively yoga culture. "There's a yoga studio on every corner," he says. "Instead of McDonald's, we have yoga studios." He found a buyer for the thriving business before it hit the $1 million revenue mark.
His next venture was a sports nutrition company, Sheer Strength Labs. It sold pre- and post-workout supplements. Armed with the knowledge he gathered from selling his first business, he sold Sheer Strengths Labs to a private equity firm.
Tapping some of the money he was making, he moved on to a new business, Foxbrim, which sells personal care products that use healthy oils, such as a coconut milk and honey facial cleaner and a hair repair product that incorporates argan oil. Moran is now rolling out a protein-heavy food line.
Both Sheer Strength Labs and Foxbrim, each of which Moran ran with a partner, grew into million-dollar, nonemployer businesses before hiring any W-2 employees, Moran says. Moran runs all of his businesses through a holding company, which has now grown to 18 employees and has revenue in the $15 million to $20 million range, he estimates. Meanwhile, his podcast kept growing. It evolved into a media company that has diversified into running events such as The Capitalism Conference and a book club. Moran now operates a site called Capitalism.com to share ideas on business growth.
As he has expanded his knowledge of entrepreneurship, Moran has candidly shared his experiences on the podcast. "I think I have a unique ability to simplify complex ideas and keep the processes really simple," says Moran. "The fact that I was able to distill down the one or two things I was doing that made an impact was the reason so many people were able to try or test different things."
Moran finds that many solo entrepreneurs and teams of business partners who build their business to a substantial size stall out, as they reach the limits of their knowledge. His advice on how to keep growing?
Don't neglect your customer base. "Entrepreneurs at $1 million are often so focused on getting the next customer they forget they have already sold $1 million worth of products," he says. "They forget about the customer base that got them to this point and worry about the next set of customers." Keep your original customers happy and stay in touch with them, he advises. They're an important source of sales.
Put your ego aside. Moran didn't have trouble outsourcing work he was not good at, but he found that because he had a knack for marketing tasks like writing copy, he was reluctant to hire anyone else to do that work. To scale his businesses, he found, he had to recruit people who were even better than he was at marketing. "To think you are the best in the world at something is a lie," says Moran. "You're not that great."
Pay attention to your personal finances. Many entrepreneurs treat their businesses like their personal piggy bank and never establish the separation they should between their personal and business finances, Moran finds. That keeps them from managing their business as they should.
Get your personal finances in shape, and you'll prime yourself for a new level of business success, he believes. "Entrepreneurs tend to worry more about the company health than their own health and financial health," says Moran. "One of the best things I did was to create a personal emergency fund and a regular investing plan for my own personal side of the house. It freed me up to operate the business like a business."
Moran put aside six months' worth of business and personal expenses about five years ago. He now has the security he needs to live the entrepreneurial life without fear he won't be able to pay the bills if something goes wrong.
Saving that much money may sound like a fantasy, but it's not unattainable. If Moran could do it after losing $100,000, others can, too. And even if you save just one or two months' worth of living and business expenses, you'll be ahead of where many entrepreneurs are today--and in a position where you have opportunities that might not otherwise be possible.

End Times: Rigatoni, Made Awesomer
Here's a perfectly simple, yet elegant way to serve your favorite red sauce and an excuse to cover it in cheese.
This isn't so much a recipe as an assembly method. I saw a photo like this on pinterest before I was pinning myself so I'm not sure who came up with it, but it sure looks pretty! This is a good (cheap!) company dish.
Search the megamart for some rigatoni, about a thumbs circumference and two inches long. Different brands are difference sizes it seems, either that or lots of pasta is called rigatoni. Finding it is actually the hardest part of this dish, I swear!
Here's what you'll need:
- 2 Cups of Your Favorite Red Pasta Sauce – homemade or Canned (shame!)
- 1 Box/Bag Rigatoni, size mentioned above – or about 4 servings worth
- 1 ½ Cups Shredded Italian or Mozzarella Cheese
- 8in or 9in Springform Pan
- Tongs
Step 1. Prepare your sauce!
Step 2.
Boil your pasta, get it just to al dente since we're baking it too.
Step 3. Drain pasta and turn it on its ends in the springform pan. This is where the tongs come in handy. You can just use your fingers (did anyone else do that witch finger thing with bugles? It's a lot like that) if you let the noodles cool a moment.
Step 4. Pour pasta sauce on top of upturned noodles. Shake pan a bit to get sauce to settle.
Step 5.Top with shredded cheese and pop in a 350 degree oven for 20 minutes.
Step 6. Pop the pan collar off and serve. Your guests will be sooo impressed.
Next time I make this I am going to half fill the noodles with a ricotta-chicken-spinach filling with a piping bag to make tiny little stuffed cannelloni.
This came out so well. My guests did, in fact, love it. There wasn't any left – two people got seconds. Serve with tongs and a spatula. That way you hold the sauce in from the bottom and stabilize the noodles during the pan to plate transfer.
Shoot pics of your creation over to Adriennethecook at gmail. I'd love to see!

I am really starting to love photographing senior's. I have to admit, at first, kids this age made me nervous. I'm not sure why, but they did. However, the more I work with this age group, the more comfortable I am becoming around them. They are sweet, funny, refreshing. They have big dreams and remind me of a time when I was that age.
Samara is no exception. What a beautiful girl! She was/is my first client using my studio set-up and the images came out so lovely. We did our session in two days because the weather here in Indiana was yucky and cold and because the lighting wasn't good. So, on Wednesday, we'll be doing our "urban" shoot in our local town.

A Tale of Two Women and their Push Up Bras
In a country not that far away, at a time not very long ago, a nerd with time on her hands hacked into the email accounts of two well-known women. She passed the shocking results on to a friend..who passed them on to a friend…who published them on this blog. Can you guess who these women are?
THE STORY SO FAR….(Chapters One to Four)
Rose is newly single and life couldn't be better. Really. Meanwhile, Olivia's marriage is as solid as..as solid as…something that's really really solid. Everything is just peachy in the land of Rose and Oliviah…except for little Vicky.
Absolutely Peachy!
Did you know, Rosie, apparently there's a worldwide shortage of single men. Except in China. Steve says you might want to get yourself an absorbing hobby. Apparently you're more likely to get kidnapped by terrorists!
Don't take it to heart though. I expect there are some very eligible terrorists out there.
Yeah well don't think I didn't think about that before I jumped. You can't go into a newsagent without tripping over some crap about how scary it is to be single and female and over forty these days. Plus there must be fucking hundreds of manuals about how to pull. But you know Liv sometimes it's better to have no man than one you can't stand much – anyway, even if I don't get any sex for the rest of my life, it'll be more than I had with John in the last three years. Well, almost.
But aren't you lonely now you're single again? I expect that's what keeps most married couples together for so long – so what if you come home every day to a pain in the bottom, at least he's a pain in YOUR bottom, and it's better than talking to the fridge door. Though I sometimes wonder.
Who me – lonely? Like I told you, I've had it with men. If I never see another hairy ball sack in my life I'll die happy. Men. Who needs em!
Really? Oh come on!
Ok yeah sure I do feel a bit lonely sometimes. My mum – you remember mum, well she's just the same, only wrinklier and crankier – anyway she keeps saying "All alone on a Saturday night?" when I go round there so I don't, much. But it's not like there's anywhere else to go. So I sit home and watch dvds and tell myself isn't it great I can watch whatever I fucking like with nothing on except a singlet and men's pyjama pants, eating chips and choccies. Ok, sometimes it's not that great.
I'm not sorry I left John all the same but.
It's a blessing you and John never had any children – although of course I shouldn't really be saying that. Only I know you never wanted any, so it's alright, isn't it? Divorce is so hard on children, all the studies say so. Although Victoria says Steve and I should think about separating because it is embarrassing being the only one in her class who doesn't come from a broken home.
Who me, want kids? Guess you didn't know, John and me have been trying for years. IVF, the works.
Oh I'm terribly sorry, I should never have said that. I am so sorry, I had no idea!
Just kidding. Ha ha!
Yeah, it's just as well. Actually I did see some show on tv with all these children of divorced parents saying how fucked up they all were and how they wished their parents had stayed together and thought of THEM for a change. I say get a life. What's with kids these days, they expect their parents to do all the housework, get pay tv so they can watch the Disney channel, pay their I-phone bills and then they want you to sacrifice your whole romantic life to motherhood as well! Divorce is just a natural part of life, get used to it. Like having your mum yell at you in the mall and pick you up from school in her ugg boots. We survived didn't we?
Come to think of it though isn't it fantastic that you and Steve stayed together all these years. Didn't I say, if you lasted out all those fights about controlled crying you'd be alright, you know.
Well, yes. Absolutely. We're as solid as, well, I don't know, government bonds or something.
Although it's not so easy, with Victoria. Sometimes I wish we could just turn her into that awful toddler again. At least we usually knew where she was!
What? She's not one of those kids the cops pick up at 2am trying to get into some sleazy nightclub, is she? Not little Vickie?
No, well, not quite that bad, YET. But I can't say Victoria has turned out quite as we would have hoped. I can't recall if I mentioned it but, since her figure developed, she has acquired this awful boyfriend called Julian, who seems to just about live here. They are in eternal love, apparently. Last week he carved her initials in his arm – I don't suppose his mother gives him pocket money to afford a REAL tattoo. Victoria thought it was dreadfully romantic and was thinking of doing the same, but I told her she would probably just end up looking like 'Emo' cousin Julia after her cutting episodes and she said she would wait till she had saved enough for a proper professional tattooist and then have Julian's portrait inscribed on both her buttocks.
The two of them spend all their spare time locked in her bedroom whispering and sniggering and god knows what else! I told Victoria she has to leave the door open – and just in case. I said if I caught them French kissing Julian would have to go straight home to his mother. Yes that's right, single parent family! No wonder he doesn't wash his hair and writes poetry!
There you go again, slagging off the working class.
So she DOES know about the birds and the bees right? Mind you when my mother told me about that I couldn't work out why there weren't any little bee-birds around, if they were having cross-species sex all the time. Catholic education!
I have tried to open the subject, but she says "Mu-um, don't be totally gross, we don't do stuff like that, we're just making out, that's all!" Making out – what's that when it's at home!
She says the 'life education' classes at school turned her completely off anything of that nature, particularly the close up film footage of genitals and nasty rashes. I never thought I would agree that explicit sex education in our schools was a good thing – until now, when I can see that it has had quite a salutary effect.
Thank christ for life education classes! We didn't even know how many holes we had, when we were that age. Or at least, you didn't, I had to tell you, remember – and you didn't believe me and then your mum caught you trying to check it out and said you were a dirty little slut and made you sterilize the hand mirror with Dettol?
Don't over react mate. She's probably not doing what you think she's doing. Probably they just whinge to each other about how hard it is to be a teenager these days and how parents aren't what they used to be. But maybe just in case you should tell that Julian if Vickie gets preggers or anything Steve will make him marry her straight off. Tell him about your rellies in Lebanon.
It's worse than you think. Since I forbade them to shut the door, I've discovered she is climbing out her window at night to go and canoodle with him outside the local supermarket – so Westside Story! And the things she wears! Tiny little mini-skirts that barely cover her underwear, and tops that look like brassieres! If she's hoping to look like a prostitute all I can say is she's succeeding perfectly.
And who knows what else she gets up to!
Relax. That's what they all wear these days. I wish I could get away with shit like that. Put a lock on the window or something, I know, buy a Pomeranian. My friend has one and anytime anybody makes a move it yips its head off like you wouldn't believe.
All the same I can't believe she's climbing out of windows to hang around with boys – not little Vickie! God she's not a bit like you is she. You were such a little tightass!
Not an epithet that could be applied to YOU, my dear.
I've forbidden her to leave the house at night. If she does, I have told her I will ask her father to pick her up from school wearing bike shorts and his All You Need is Love medallion. "Oh you wouldn't! That would be SO tight!" I told her I would and if necessary I might escalate to wearing a boob tube and a flip skirt. I'm calling it 'creative parenting'.
OUR parents never had to worry about this sort of thing!
Well sure but it's all about opportunity isn't it? When we were teens it was kind of hard to break out? Like drugs and smoking. I mean, there was that time the crossing man offered you a fag and said you had nice legs – but Mr Jones the maths teacher saw him do it and he was sacked the next day, so nothing doing there. And we didn't even know who our local drug dealer was. My sister's kids already know who theirs is, it's the six year old kid with three unemployed big brothers who grow weed in their bathroom.
And as for slutting it up, there weren't all the music videos telling you how it's done for a start. We used to go on about sluts and slags and whores like we knew what we were talking about but what did we know – nothing!
Mind you as soon as I did know what a slut was I wanted to be one. I reckon everybody should get tarty at least once in their life, we're not going to be able to put it around much in the nursing home.
Very true, but that's not the sort of attitude I want to inculcate in Victoria.
No really, we're very worried. Suppose she DOES become sexually active? Suppose she starts to smoke weed? Or she starts to keep company with the wrong sort of person? I mean, it begins with hanging about at the supermarket at nine o'clock chatting up boys, but where will it end? King's Cross?
I don't know, I don't feel as if I can control anything at the moment! Victoria won't do as she's told and neither will Steve, and who am I to tell anybody what to do anyway – just a middle aged unemployed, what did you used to call me – champagne mum!
How do you mean Steve won't do what he's told? I thought you had his balls tied up to your handbag.
Oh, nothing. I told you, there's nothing wrong with OUR marriage. I mean, of course we have our little disagreements from time to time, who doesn't!
But you know, I DON'T want to be one of those custodial grandparents one hears about, who get left with the baby while the errant child joins a rock group in Byron Bay. If you know what I mean.
OTHERWISE, I'm perfectly happy. Absolutely peachy, darling!

DAILYKENN.com -- San Francisco offers sanctuary to illegal aliens but not to homeless.
I wonder what they do with homeless illegal aliens.
From sanfrancisco.cbslocal.com ▼
SAN FRANCISCO (KPIX 5) — San Francisco is working to keep clear a popular camping spot for the homeless by having crews place huge boulders on areas under the Highway 101 interchange at Cesar Chavez St.
The streets and ramps beneath 101 on the edge of Potrero Hill is the area known as the "Hairball" because it's such a confusing array of routes for drivers, who often mistakenly find themselves driving onto Potrero Ave. or Bayshore Blvd. instead of 101 or Cesar Chavez. It's also been a popular place for the homeless to set up camp for decades, until the city cleared the encampment last month.
As first reported in Mission Local, boulders placed just off the roadway in different sections of the Hairball are the deterrent the Department of Public Works Deputy Director Larry Stringer hopes will make it a hard place for the homeless to set up camp.
"The boulders was an idea that we thought we'd try," Stringer told KPIX 5. "This is an experiment. We're trying something different, kind of see what happens."
It cost $10,000 to put the boulders here. Stringer believes it is money well spent.

The politics of football: Russia's World Cup 2018
Jun 12,2018 - Last updated at Jun 12,2018
Britain's Foreign Minister Boris Johnson has recently, and controversially, suggested that Russian President Vladimir Putin will try to bolster Russia's image through hosting the World Cup in a similar way to how Adolf Hitler used the Olympics, when it was held in Nazi Germany. This claim carries many debatable assumptions, especially when one considers the diplomatic row between the UK and Russia which saw both countries expelling diplomats after the British alleged Russia poisoned a former spy in the UK with a deadly nerve agent. While this thesis is debatable, one has to study how a popular sport, such as football, is employed to cater to political purposes.
Football is the most popular sport of all time for a good reason. The only negative reason for which one might feel resentment towards football is because it allegedly caused the death of Bob Marley. Besides this, football instills the sense of unity where different colours of skin chant the same anthem. It instills a sense of community, regardless of being an imagined one, of team-work, brotherhood, organisation and coherence. It develops discipline and evokes belonging in a world that tries to deterritorialise you even from yourself. Football is a healthy exercise both mentally and physically. Technically, it is a game of bodily chess on a larger board. Moreover, football leagues around the world are an educational atlas of capitals and geographies. The poetics of football, furthermore, help you understand the politics of race and geography.
A Palestinian national football team, for example, was not formed untill the late 1990s, after the establishment of the Palestinian National Authority. The team was always challenged by security and financial distress ever after its establishment. Football was originally introduced in Palestine during the British mandate, when there was a British Army Football League, in which played Arab and Jewish teams, along with teams with British soldiers and police forces. Only the second and third World Cups in history, in 1934 and 1938, witnessed a mandatory Palestinian national team, whose players were ironically Jewish only. Incidentally, fascist Italy did not only win the World War I, but also the very second and third World Cups of 1934 and 1938 represented by its football national team. After all, football was, and continues to be, the sport of the masses. The masses who watch from the side-lines, however, are as involved as the people on the green pitch. It is no wonder then that the crowds and supporters are usually referred to as "the 12th man of the team". This is why football teams usually have an advantage playing at home over their away games. Being and playing "at home" is presumed to be familial, familiar, authoritative and puts you in control.
Subsequently, Benito Mussolini, the leader of the Italian National Fascist Party, established the Italian Football League, known hitherto as Serie A, to instill a strong sense of nationalism amongst the people of Italy. Football regulations during the 1930s were also fascist. For example, to participate in the World Cup, particularly the first three world cups of 1930, 1934 and 1938 before the end of the World War II, you had to prove and determine your historical familial roots. Thus, you were not allowed to play against the football team you had once represented. This was considered national betrayal. Mussolini, therefore, had the greatest of chances to organise and influence the masses during the World Cup of 1934. Referees were allegedly bribed and all was done to ensure Italy was the team to win the World Cup. The colours of the players' outfits usually reflect the nation's flag. The fascist salute given by the Italian team in 1934 during their national anthem provoked widespread booing from spectators; Italy changed their outfit from blue to all-black to reflect the colours of the fascist party when they played France as instructed by Mussolini. Sport was furthermore used by Adolf Hitler to assert the superiority of the Aryan race above all others. He intended to participate in the World Cup with a well-presented football team to show the rest of the world that Germans, represented by both footballers and crowds, were as civilised as everyone else and appreciated good sports like everybody else. The 1936 German Olympics were organised and planned perfectly for such a purpose. All this was organised to facilitate the spread of Nazism.
There is always a very thin line between nationalism and racism, between nationalism and chauvinism. There is always a very thin line between the individual and the state, between nationalism and liberalism. Although nationalism can become anti-imperialism and a form of resistance, there is still a very thin line between imperialism and nationalism. Nationalism, therefore, poses the most dangerous threat, because it leaves no room for revision or self-criticism. Racism can become an extension of nationalism, too. The overwhelming pride of belonging to a race can indeed extend to becoming an antagonistic feeling towards other races. While racism, like colonialism, awakens in the marginalised and the victim a sense of belonging and self-consciousness, nationalism is seen as corruptingly exaggerated and extreme. Nationalism is sovereign because it was born in an age of Enlightenment after the French Revolution. Subsequently, it has resulted in nations dreaming of freedom; nations which romanticise the dream over reality. This kind of dreaming and the very strongly inflated bond of national pride through an imagined community often sends men and women sacrificing their lives in the name of race, nationalised religion and homeland. It is no wonder then that the primary campaign embraced by The Union of European Football Associations is "No to Racism" whereby it aims to eliminate racism, discrimination and intolerance from football in recent years.
Football can be nationally politicised to promote a political regime on an international stage, a means through which a leader can articulate a nationalistic identity, and form public opinion. During the first half of the twentieth century, football perfectly served such a purpose, and continues to do so.

Britons killed in Saudi Arabia coach crash
Four British people have died and 12 others have been hurt in a coach crash in Saudi Arabia, a travel firm says.
Raj Begum Hussain, 70, from Blackburn, died alongside an elderly man and a mother and her grown-up son, all from Preston, in Lancashire.
The coach was travelling from Mecca on an Umrah pilgrimage, when it was hit by a fuel tanker which caught fire and set the bus alight, the firm said.
Trip organisers Hashim Travel said the incident on Saturday was "horrendous".
Eighteen people were aboard the coach when it crashed. All were taken to hospital, where six remain.
Mrs Hussain - a mother of six and a grandmother of 13 - was travelling with her younger sister who survived but was injured.
"She will be sorely missed by all family and friends. We would like to thank the whole community for their condolences and support at this difficult time," her family said in a statement.
It is understood that a young child was also among the injured.
The group were travelling as part of an Umrah pilgrimage and had been in Saudi Arabia for a week.
The crash happened near the start of the group's five-hour road trip from Mecca to Medina, near the town of Al Khalas.
The Umrah pilgrimage is on a smaller scale than the annual Hajj pilgrimage.
Blackburn-based Hashim Travel says it specialises in Umrah and Hajj and has been providing travel packages to people in north-west England for 20 years.
The company's director, Gulfaraz Zaman, called the incident "horrendous" and "very distressing".
"If you see the remains of the bus, there's just the metal frame of it that's left," he told the BBC.
"It's very upsetting - especially the people that have passed away," he added, "our thoughts are with the families."
He said visas had been arranged for family members of the deceased who were now travelling out to Saudi Arabia.
The Council of British Hajjis said it was providing support to a British family which had been affected.
Rashid Mogradia, chief executive of Council of British Hajjis, told the BBC the route between Mecca and Medina was a long but "relatively safe journey".
A lot has been done by the Saudi authorities to improve the safety of pilgrims, he told the BBC.
Passengers on the bus were from Accrington, Preston, Birmingham, Wolverhampton, Northampton and Blackburn.
Abdul Hamid Qureshi, chairman of Lancashire Council of Mosques said: "This is a very sad incident. Our prayers and thoughts are with the deceased and their families."
Conservative MP for Wyre and Preston North Ben Wallace tweeted his condolences and Labour MP Yasmin Qureshi, who is chair of the recently formed All-Party Parliamentary Group on Hajj and Umrah, said: "I am really saddened to hear of the death of pilgrims."
"We are supporting the British families of those who have died and those injured following a serious road traffic accident near the town of Al Khalas, Saudi Arabia," a Foreign Office spokesperson said.
What is the Umrah?
The Hajj is the pilgrimage to Mecca that takes place in the month of Dhul Hijjah, which is the 12th month of the Islamic lunar calendar.
The Umrah is an extra, optional pilgrimage and does not count as the once-in-a-lifetime Hajj.
Although it includes some of the rituals of the Hajj, they are shortened and there are fewer of them.
Unlike Hajj, it is not obligatory and can take place at any time of the year.

Youri Mulder (Dutch pronunciation: [ˈjuːri ˈmɵldər]; born 23 March 1969) is a retired Dutch footballer who played as a striker and also a manager.
Club career[edit]
Mulder was born in Brussels, Belgium. The son of former Ajax Amsterdam and R.S.C. Anderlecht player Jan Mulder, he played youth football for SDO Bussum and Ajax. After two years in amateur football, he made his professional debuts at 21, with FC Twente. In his second season, he scored a career-best 18 goals, as the club finished sixth in the Eredivisie.
In 1993, Mulder moved to the German Bundesliga with FC Schalke 04, where he would play for nearly one decade. He made his league debut on 7 August, in a 0–3 loss at SG Wattenscheid 09. His first three years at the Gelsenkirchen side were successful individually – 22 goals combined – and the 1996–97 season brought with it the UEFA Cup conquest, with the player netting three times in the campaign, including once in the quarter-finals against Valencia CF.
Additionally, Mulder also won two consecutive German Cups, in 2001 and 2002. Only managing to appear 33 times (with just one goal) in his last three seasons combined, he retired at the end of 2001–02, aged 33.
In 2007–08, Mulder had his first coaching experience: he started the season as an offensive trainer in Twente, then rejoined another former side, Schalke 04, in April 2008, working with former teammate Michael Büskens as replacements for dismissed Mirko Slomka,[1] a situation which occurred again in 2009, after the sacking of Fred Rutten, being joined then by another former club player, Oliver Reck.[2]
International career[edit]
Mulder played nine matches for the Dutch national football team, and found the net three times. He made his international debut on 16 November 1994, and participated at UEFA Euro 1996, where he played the last ten minutes (plus extra time) in the quarterfinal loss against France.
Personal life[edit]
In addition to his professional football career, Mulder also worked as a sports commentator for NOS TV. he was married with Nina Freidher, and they have two kids: Finn and Alexander Mulder. Where as now Finn lives in Norway.
