Do you think The Maidstone would let me move in?
After driving by this beautiful hotel and restaurant many times on the way to East Hampton, a friend and I spent some time exploring the grounds. Hey, if I can't move in, at least I have Instagram.
The porch welcomes you with a surfboard sign and lots of little nooks to sit and enjoy a tea or a cheese plate. Or, you can load up your very own bicycle basket with a mini picnic and hit the road.
If The Maidstone would ever consider letting me move in...I'd curl up by this window...in that chaise lounge...and pull book after book off of their beautifully painted shelves...
My friend and I camped out in their 'Living Room', poured ourselves a drink, and chatted for hours like it was our own living room.
I'd like that ottoman and tray wrapped up 'to-go', please.
After an inspired chat (surrounded by photos of the Mets, Andy Warhol and the Kennedy's--compelling conversation is bound to happen!) we took a stroll through the back garden, which had plenty of well designed places to lean back and enjoy some beautiful art and sculptures.
A little romance in the grass...and, bringing a City skyline to the Country...
Afternoon meditation with Buddha.
A luminous piece of art shining on the back of The Maidstone.
To wind down a day, how inviting are these shearling throws? Tuck into one of these and enjoy the view of the pond across the way--complete with Mama swan and babies!
At a memorable place like this, you have to bring a souvenir home. Of course, they already thought of that...
I mean...who wouldn't want to move to The Maidstone? (http://www.careofhotels.com/maidstone/)

led taschenlampe lightwayPar vergleichledtaschenl dans Accueil le 16 Avril 2017 à 02:29
Light-radiating diodes, or LED's, are a sort of lights that works fundamentally not the same as a traditional light. The diode is an electrical part with two terminals that lead power in one way just. At the point when an electrical current is gone through the segment, the diode emits a gleaming light. By joining a few of these diodes to some pcb (printed circuit-board) we get an astonishing uniform gentle having an unparalleled mellow quality and at an exceptionally least vitality cost. One other astonishing thing about LEDs is they can deliver different hues effortlessly and splendidly making them an astoundingly adaptable light hotspot for some applications, for example, temperament lighting, business usage and significantly more.
While the customary light change all the power used to warm rather than light lEDs are superior to some other lighting asset available.
When measuring their yield, exactly how do light discharging diodes analyze? As you could have already recognized while out on-line or buying that most light bundling h-AS a figure on it citing 'Lumens'. Lumens are just an advantageous unit of yield that is mellow that can be precisely in correlation with extra light assets though wattage is not a valuable method for measuring light yield. As expressed above most traditional lights change over the power utilized to warm not and which thus is consuming a large portion of the wattage of the light producing any utilization to the consummation result. Light emanating diodes create enough lumens to uproot an ordinary 40 - watt light. What's more, around 9 to 1 2 w is quite recently utilized by them. In this way, on the off chance that you need to substitute one 60-w light, look with around 800 lumens for a LIGHT EMITTING DIODE light; for a 40-watt globule, appear for 450 lumens.
They might be completely dimmable yet please ensure you check the determination before you buy as you should get a dimmable light rather than a regular BROUGHT. Possibly not all BROUGHT lights that are dimmable are reasonable for more seasoned dimmer changes so again please check which dimmer switch you may have and whether it will be good with your new lights. Hence ought not bring about much sympathy toward looking edge dimmers which can be set up to your cutoff organize that is wanted keeping in mind the end goal to maintain a strategic distance from light gleam many light radiating diodes are made, they might be somewhat simple to setup. We will see a bigger determination of darkening handles land at market as light producing diode light turns out to be more run of the mill in families. The greatest grievance for property holders that utilization light-radiating diodes is the expense of them, yet as need sees the cost will drop radically as might be seen of all retail locations that are on the web. Considering burning through several dollars/pounds to dislodge LED lights averts numerous purchasers from getting them yet the diminishment in vitality use and protracted life expectancy settle on them a truly astute decision all alone venture and with payback events in under a year you can watch why.
S O you can discover loads of advantages to utilizing LED light over customary CFL or glowing lights. They utilize less vitality and continue going longer more, the costs are falling quick and furthermore the mellow quality is way unrivaled. Furthermore, one tremendous edge that was not specified yet is the cost to the earth, obviously with a lessening in your impression you're saving money on carbon dioxide emanations which at last is an enormous deciding variable for a few of green customers.
Driven lights or downlight's come in a wide range of shapes and measurements which have numerous famous family lights like the GU10 DIRECTED territory, E27 Edison wind light and a few more, they last regularly of 25 times longer and use around 85 for every penny less essentialness than conventional brilliant knobs (not-awful better believe it). Light-transmitting diodes additionally outlive the prominent lightweight luminous light (CFL) and require no warm up period, offering off the whole light yield quickly.
So what precisely are you presently anticipating, deliver the change now and start safeguarding. https://plusvergleicher.com/led-taschenlampe

By Bernard Bujold-
The artist Tex Lecor died in the night of Friday to Saturday September 9, 2017 as a result of pulmonary complications. He was 84 years old.
His real name was Paul Lecorre and he was born on June 10, 1933 in Saint-Michel-de-Wentworth, north of Lachute, in the Laurentians.
This artist TEX, who was loved by all, will be remembered as one of the greatest poets of Quebec; a humorist with his insolence of a telephone; and finally a painter.
Personally it is his musical work that touched me most because his songs reflected the traditional Quebec of the seventies, years of my adolescence. One can compare him to a Felix Leclerc at the level of his poetry deeply identified to Quebec and his people.
Tex Lecor had retired from the musical world since the beginning of 1980 and devoted himself to his first trade as a painter, a trade he had studied at the Montreal School of Fine Arts from 1951 to 1958 with other artists as the sculptor Armand Vaillancourt.
Another page in the history of Quebec has just turned...

Happy spring time! The girls woke up this morning and were greeted with SPRING baskets from their NeeNee. Then we hid the eggs they colored and a few goodie filled plastic ones for a spring time egg hunt.
One of these days many years from now when Micaila and Ryann have kids and grand-kids they will all, hopefully, have continued and spread the tradition of "celebrating spring" in March and reserving Easter for our Savior. And hopefully because of that change unsaved people will be impacted by how much Easter means to Christians. They will take note of how important it is to us to make this day all about Him because of what He did for us. They will begin to understand and grasp what his life, death, and resurrection all means for us and they will ultimately desire to have relationship with Him.
It's a big vision I know. But it's gotta start somewhere right? 🙂
The next thing I will blog about on this topic is how we explain, share, and celebrate the events leading up to Easter Sunday with the girls. This will be the most important part of separating the two traditions. It wouldn't be enough to just remove the baskets and egg hunts from Easter morning. As Christian parents we want to ensure we do our part in sharing with our children the love of Christ. Yes daily. But also giving them the opportunity to really grab hold of days like Easter and Christmas and why we set them aside and devote a whole day to the event. My prayer is that in doing this now they will have a great understanding early on of what His sacrifice means for them and that it will instill a love and desire in their hearts for Christ. Because THAT is what it's all about.

Obamacare's tariff on hiring American workers still plagues immigration bill
An unnamed staffer for Sen. Marco Rubio has caused the latest stir over the immigration bill by telling the New Yorker's Ryan Lizza that, "There are American workers who, for lack of a better term, can't cut it…There shouldn't be a presumption that every American worker is a star performer." Rubio himself was quick to explain that the quote did not represent his own views. But in reality, the immigration bill Rubio is pushing, when combined with President Obama's health care law, would actually do something much worse than make it easier for employers to hire immigrant workers over American citizens – it would provide a massive financial incentive to do so.
As I've outlined previously, under Obamacare, businesses with over 50 workers that employ American citizens without offering them qualifying health insurance could be subject to fines of up to $3,000 per worker. But because newly legalized immigrants wouldn't be eligible for subsidies on the Obamacare exchanges until after they become citizens – at least 13 years under the Senate bill – businesses could avoid such fines by hiring the new immigrants instead.
Let's be clear about something. In a free market, if a new immigrant worker can do a job better than an American worker for a cheaper price, there shouldn't be a problem with a business hiring the immigrant. But when the immigration bill interacts with Obamacare's employer mandate, it functions as a reverse tariff against hiring American citizens. It would be like subjecting Americans to a $3,000 tax on purchasing American cars, while allowing them to avoid that tax by purchasing cars from Germany, Japan, or any other country other than America. That's not free trade. That's government rigging the game against American citizens.
Sadly, Rubio, who is losing more and more credibility by the day among conservatives, has shown absolutely no leadership on trying to resolve this problem. When I first reported on the issue in April, Rubio spokesman Alex Conant responded that this was the sort of technical problem that could be fixed through amendments as the bill moved through the legislative process. But the issue was never addressed in the more than 200 amendments offered before the Senate Judiciary committee. None of the listed amendments filed since the bill made it to the Senate floor last week tackle the problem either. Despite this, Rubio declared on Sunday, "I think 95, 96 percent of the bill is in perfect shape and ready to go." I don't even think Obama would make such an audacious statement about Obamacare to this day.
When I contacted Conant for an update on Monday, he said that Rubio's position is that "the problem is Obamacare, and it's an argument for repealing Obamacare." But that's just a nonsense position. However unlikely it is that Obamacare ever gets fully repealed, there's zero chance it gets repealed while Obama is president. And if the immigration bill passes, immigrants would be granted legal status before January 20, 2017 (and that date assumes that a Republican president and Senate could magically zap out Obamacare in one day). So, immigration law has to be crafted assuming that Obamacare will remain the law of the land.
Even putting that aside, however, there's another problem with Rubio's position. If this is such a good argument for repealing Obamacare, then why isn't he making it? Specifically, why isn't he making the argument that because of Obamacare, it's difficult to reform immigration without creating the unintended consequences of slapping a massive tariff on hiring American citizens? The reality is that Rubio has become so invested in immigration reform that he doesn't want to seriously grapple with a complex issue like this that could blow the whole thing up.

|' Gee whiz, now I've got these inspiring blogs to read I can cut down on the barbiturates and unsavoury menfolk!'
Firstly: XO Jane. Have I mentioned this one before? Sorry gents, it's definitely a ladies only one, this. Ladies - listen up. I've just discovered it - full of hilarious, sassy (I really hate that word, so why would I use it?), feisty (if anything I hate this even more than sassy, grrrr) and strident (ah, forget it) articles written by clever, funny women.
Okay, so I've just somehow managed to make it sound really terrible (remind me not to write a review of your book if you ever publish one), so just go there and see. It's not remotely all about mental health, but there are some bits and pieces that are really pertinent to us worry-warts: Anxiety hero Sara Benincasa has written a great article on there about panic attacks, there's this one and this one about depression, and even one about GALLSTONES, who'd-a-thunk-it?!
Use the search bar - it's your friend. If you're in the UK it will probably try to steer you to the new UK version, but I personally prefer the US one (which still features a lot of the UK articles).
Nextly: The Big Scary C Word. It's actually a breast cancer blog that popped up on Huffington Post UK, but is such an inspiring and brave account of a young woman coping (well, hell, she more than copes) that it deserves inclusion in the push-up bra (uplifting, see what I did there) section.
I initially internally shrieked with self-hatred after seeing how phenomenally well she was dealing with something infinitely more terrifying than anything I worry about, but then I realised - she doesn't have an anxiety condition! Or depression! Her boatload of shit is very different to our boatload of shit, but you can certainly draw a hell of a lot of inspiration from this woman's sunny outlook - I certainly have.
Nextly nextly: Panic about Anxiety. Summer Beretsky blogs at Psych Central about her agoraphobia and panic attacks. Loads of great, clear, honest (she doesn't hide behind anonymity, hmmm) articles there about anxiety in all its gnarly forms.
Question: Is an anxiety blogger blogging about other great anxiety blogs a little like a woman telling her boyfriend how gorgeous other women are and then giving him their numbers? Guys, guys - where are you all going...hang on, can I just.....guyyyyyys...?

News Advisory
June 26, 2017
A man sentenced to death for the 1991 kidnapping, rape and murder of a Houston woman is to be re-sentenced Tuesday to life in prison due to a federal court ruling that he can't be executed because he is intellectually disabled.
Robert James Campbell, who was on parole at the time of the crimes, will be back in a Harris County courtroom for a hearing in state district court.
He will face the family of Alexandra Rendon, a 20-year-old bank teller who was abducted from a gas station near her home.
Harris County District Attorney Kim Ogg said her office will protest all of Campbell's future parole hearings to remind officials of the brutality of his crime.
"In unison with his victims and their families, we will do everything we can to see that he serves every second of his life sentence," Ogg said.
Israel Santana, who is Rendon's cousin and a spokesman for her family, said he hopes Campbell stays in prison for the remainder of his life.
"We are devastated by him being transferred off Death Row, but we do recognize the law is the law," Santana said. "If anybody ever deserved a death sentence, it would be Robert Campbell."
Campbell was convicted by a Harris County jury of capital murder and sentenced to death by lethal injection. Because of the option of life without parole was not available in 1991, he will be resentenced to life in prison.

Jaws Sees More Energy... What About Wins
By Lance Epstein
The disheartening, sickening and frustrating feelings about the bitter end to the 2009 Philadelphia Eagles season forced the franchise to look in the mirror. Head coach Andy Reid and new general manager Howie Roseman were forced to ponder the idea of sticking with a club that was perennially in the playoff hunt, but not necessarily a Super Bowl Contender or move into a new wave of Eagles football.
With the end of an era on the horizon and very much in sight, many fans and media members were calling for the Donovan McNabb age to be over. The common belief was that the six-time Pro Bowler would never be able to carry or inspire his team to the promise land. He was transformed from a Moses character to a Judas villain in the span of the final two weeks of football season.
However many did not fully trust Kevin Kolb or his abilities; even after his two impressive starts in '09. Some enthusiasts deemed that the major injuries [Stewart Bradley, Jamaal Jackson and countless others] doomed McNabb and the team. More feared that trading McNabb away signaled at least two more years of rebuilding; something that fans do not want to hear since they have lost year-after-year for 50 years.
Despite those two factions, the most concerning issue coming out of the two embarrassing and lopsided defeats to the hated Dallas Cowboys was the lack of energy, desperation and the appearance of just going through the motions. An Eagles team, which lost its hunger and focus for a championship.
Of course, the Eagles finally made the bold decision to turn the page on its 11-year veteran quarterback, do-it-all running back in Brian Westbrook and the other aging veterans. Today, the roster is full of fresh legs, new faces and a rekindled spirit for the game of football. Former Eagles' great, Ron Jaworski notices a significant difference in the team's atmosphere.
"I've spoken to a number of players, a number of the coaches, and the one thing I sense that was probably missing over the last couple years is energy," Jaworski said in a interview on 97.5 The Fanatic with with Mike Missanelli. "There's almost that little-kid enthusiasm right now within the organization because of the changes they've made."
Jaworski strongly believes that the new additions along with the 13 draft picks are a chief reason for the drastic changes in attitude amongst the team. In fact, he claims the clubhouse is more upbeat than it has been in recent years.
"When you get those young, enthusiastic players in the locker room, it's amazing how they raise the spirit, and even of Andy Reid and the coaching staff. And the feeling down at the Novacare Center is real positive now," Jaworski said.
Jaworski and rest of the league understands that the Eagles will encounter some growing pains due to their youth, but there is a enormous amount of potential and possibly even a pot of gold at end of the rainbow.
"They know they've got a young team," he said. "They know they're going to make mistakes, but as they grow together, this has the chance to be a real good football team down the road. I think that's the part that's exciting."
Unfortunately for the Eagles, the youth movement might have been better served with last year's schedule. In 2009, the Eagles were blessed to face only four playoff teams and had one of the easiest their schedules in the entire league.
This year's opponents are a far tougher task. The 2010 schedule includes 12 games against quarterbacks that are in the upper echelon of the league [Eli Manning twice, McNabb twice, Tony Romo twice, Matt Schaub, Peyton Manning, Aaron Rodgers, Matt Ryan and possibly Brett Favre]. Additionally, they face the much-improved Chicago Bears and San Francisco 49ers.
Without doubt the Eagles have plenty of great young talent on offense. Wide receivers DeSean Jackson, Jeremy Maclin and Jason Avant could become one of the best corps in the entire NFL, if they are not already. Tight end Brent Celek had a breakout season last year and seems to have good chemistry with his new quarterback.
Furthermore, LeSean McCoy was a better back during the 2009 season than the aging and injury prone Westbrook. McCoy set an Eagles rookie rushing record with 637 yards. With a whole off-season of strength training and reps with the starters, he should continue to flourish into a premier back. The so-called "young guns" bring a lot of energy and firepower, which many teams will have difficulty matching up with every Sunday.
Nonetheless, the Eagles offensive line and growth of their new quarterback might overshadow the emergence of the positive energy. The Eagles still failed to adequately prove that Mike McGlynn or Nick Cole can be a highly effective center in the absence of Jackson. Also, Jason Peters and Winston Justice must be more consistent at the tackle positons.
In addition, Kolb might have been the first player to ever throw back-to-back 300-yard games in his first two career starts, but he has shown a propensity for forcing the issue and this ultimately creates turnovers. Moreover, he has never gone through the rigors of a full 16-game slate. Both of these questions will loom large and could eliminate the optimistic energy.
Unfortunately, the offense is not the only concern. The defense has its array of holes as well. In OTAs, the team lost starting free safety Marlin Jackson to a ruptured Achilles tendon. This means for the second straight season, the Eagles will ask a rookie [last year Macho Harris and this year Nate Allen] to step into the starter's role.
Safety is not the only fear or concern in the secondary. Ellis Hobbs is attempting to replace the team's most consistent defender over the past five seasons in Sheldon Brown. One of the weakest links on defensive coordinator Sean McDermott's defense in 2009 was the defensive backfield. Now, the Eagles are relying on a player who has not made it through an entire season in two years [or an OTA practice this off-season] and has to overcome a severe neck injury. Can Hobbs do it? Certainly, but it is far more likely he falters for the club then makes fans forget about Brown.
At linebacker, the Eagles have even more questions. They do not know whether Stewart Bradley will be the player and stud he was before he tore his ACL in training camp. Also, Ernie Sims must demonstrate that he is not the bust that the Detroit Lions thought when trading him to Philadelphia for a fifth-round pick [was selected ninth overall a few years ago].
On the other hand, there is a ton of hope and built up energy in the retooled defensive line. A revamped defensive line can make all the difference for a mediocre defense. When first-round pick Brandon Graham lines up with Trent Cole, the line instantly gets an infusion of renewed energy. Cole and Graham should become one of the best tandems in the league at getting pressure on the quarterback. Additionally, their relentless motors should infuse energy into a defense that was in dire of a spark since losing former defensive coordinator Jim Johnson.
If the acquisition of Graham was not enough, Ricky Sapp, Daniel Te'o-Nesheim and Darryl Tapp were all brought in and should give a boost to the Eagles defensive line rotation. This is something the team has lacked over the past couple of years. The fresh and youthful speed rushers should give Cole more breathers throughout the season, so that he can be rejuvenated heading into the stretch run. All three of these defensive linemen should help keep the energy level on high throughout the entire game.
The newfound energy Jaws talks about guarantees that the club will be extremely competitive. Although if the team can answer their question marks and grow up faster than experts believe, the Eagles might be Super Bowl contenders and not just in the hunt for a playoff spot.

Skyridge Enterprises LLC
Logos & Branding
Award Winning Logo Design
I am looking to get a logo designed for my company called Skyridge Enterprises LLC. I will want the logo to only say Skyridge Enterprises.
This will be a multi faceted company as it will do research, consulting as well as real estate investment. It will be a general holding company. I want the logo to be:
a) Professional
b) Regal, majestic and powerful, yet not gaudy.
c) New age and modern, yet with a retro aspect
d) I want it to be a combination mark, where it will have the words and an accompanying graphic element. The graphic element will need to work and look exceptional in the logo yet also be useable as a stand alone accent for, say, a website or letterhead, etc.
e) I want it to be simple.
The concept behind the company name is a mountain or "ridge" that is reaching into the sky, like a peak reaching into the infinite. Conceptually it is supposed to represent infinite possibilities and affluent expansion in life personally. This is not just a company, but will be somewhat of a family mark intended for now and into the future for generations.
Another possible concept to think with would be being ON the ridge as it rises up into the the sky and the possibilities for expansion spreading out below it. I have mentioned the sky a few times and it can be an empty implied sky or there can be stars within, denoting infinite space kind of concept, but I wouldn't want that to comicy. I would prefer it to be conservative, powerful and simple.
Colors that I like or I think would be ideal are deep greens, almost grey greens. blacks and various shades of grey that harmonize together.
I like both sans-serif fonts and serif fonts, but I am not sure which would look best here and I leave it to you as to what you think would be best, especially because I have said I like modern (which can be sans-serif) and yet a retro flare (I guess I mean aged and long-lasting by retro).
The attached image is an example, but it doesn't fully convey all of the above and I would like to look at fresh envisioning of how it can be done to look excellent. Your portfolio and website looked great and so I trust you will come up with something awesome.

f.t.t.w: side notes
Just a couple of notes:
- The Misfits post has been updated, so come on down there and have some fun with that.
- I've been getting a lot of suggestions for car posts, as well as album review ideas, so feel free to throw a suggestion out, they are always welcome.
- All recent content (cars, underground, reviews, lists) is now in the sidebar. Also, any songs used in entries here are available on the sidebar
- We're working our best punk albums of the 90's thing, so if you want to throw your two cents in with suggestions, feel free
- Just want to throw out a quick thank you to those who have stuck around to read this new, improved incarnation of this site. This is the most fun I've ever had blogging. And thanks to those who have thrown some links this way as we try to bring in a whole different set of readers. And thank you always to the turtle, who was the one who inspired me to get the site going again and (in my opinion) whose stories are the best part of this thing.
- You'll notice that the "a small victory" part of the title of this site is gone from both the header and the logo. We'll be moving everything over to a new URL eventually. So this site is now called Faster Than the World.
It's called moving on. And it's good.
And just because all the posts here have songs, here is one that I've been listening to on repeat all day. It's some kick ass rock and roll.

Younger kids will not understand who I'm talking about, but will relate to the skit played by Will Ferrell on Saturday Night Live when the comedian "directed" classic rock band Blue Oyster Cult to add more cowbell while recording the hit Don't Fear the Reaper.
Now, what a lot of people don't know is that the real person behind the idea of adding the cowbell sound to Don't Fear the Reaper was Blue Oyster Cult's producer, David Lucas, who has, for a while, been a resident of Boca Raton, Florida.
When Boca Raton Magazine asked me to photograph Lucas for an article entitled "How Does it Feel" where Lucas describe his participation with the classic band and the addition of the cowbell that made him famous – although his credentials go way beyond the instrument who became a virtual curse for him – I knew this would be a day I would not forget. But I had no idea what was coming.
As I mentioned in my post Jam Session With Pastor Duke Philips, one of my biggest passions is playing drums – which I was fortunate to do professionally for several years in my 20s. So photographing music personalities has a special place in my heart. Photographing someone like Lucas was already a thrill in itself just for what he – and his work – represent to the music world.
Part of my job as an environment portrait photographer is to connect with the people I'm photographing. And this cannot be faked. The success of my photo shoots depend on my genuine interest in the people I'm photographing. And my interest comes from my love for what I do. With Lucas, it was no different. His stories fascinated me and we chatted for over an hour before I even started setting up my lighting equipment. The fact that he is also an amazing photographer added a little pressure to the experience.
After capturing the photos I wanted to illustrate his article, Lucas asked me if I had a few more minutes so he could show me something. I followed him upstairs where he opened a closet door, pulled a bag full of Zildjian drum cymbals and handed it to me. I opened the bag and started looking at the cymbals without understanding the situation. Then Lucas said: "these cymbals were given to me by one of my best friends. He asked me to keep them before he passed away".
Of course, I asked who was his friend to what he answered: "turn them around. His initials are on the cymbals". The moment I saw the initials BR, my hands started shaking and I felt the tears in my eyes. Yes, I can be quite emotional when I'm holding a piece of history in my hands. The cymbals belonged to Buddy Rich, probably the most influential and revolutionary drummer that ever played the instrument. Rich was a frequent guest at Johnny Carson's show and played with acts such as Artie Shaw, Tommy Dorsey, Benny Carter, Frank Sinatra, Nat King Cole, Ella Fitzgerald, Gene Krupa, and Louis Armstrong just to mention a few. Also, he's credited of creating some of the most original drum solos ever seen and mastering the use of the drums rims on his solos.
Without a doubt, photographing David Lucas was an amazing experience and I'm glad to know that I also made a friend that day. Who else will prepare you a fresh Bloody Mary during a photo shoot? But the energy I felt while holding those cymbals made me want to rush home and hit my drums. And that's exactly what I did. For that, I thank you, Lucas. And I thank you, Mr. Rich, wherever you are.

Chapter 41
Moby Dick.
I, Ishmael, was one of that crew; my shouts had gone up with the rest; my oath had been welded with theirs; and stronger I shouted, and more did I hammer and clinch my oath, because of the dread in my soul. A wild, mystical, sympathetical feeling was in me; Ahab's quenchless feud seemed mine. With greedy ears I learned the history of that murderous monster against whom I and all the others had taken our oaths of violence and revenge.
For some time past, though at intervals only, the unaccompanied, secluded White Whale had haunted those uncivilized seas mostly frequented by the Sperm Whale fishermen. But not all of them knew of his existence; only a few of them, comparatively, had knowingly seen him; while the number who as yet had actually and knowingly given battle to him, was small indeed. For, owing to the large number of whale-cruisers; the disorderly way they were sprinkled over the entire watery circumference, many of them adventurously pushing their quest along solitary latitudes, so as seldom or never for a whole twelvemonth or more on a stretch, to encounter a single news-telling sail of any sort; the inordinate length of each separate voyage; the irregularity of the times of sailing from home; all these, with other circumstances, direct and indirect, long obstructed the spread through the whole world-wide whaling-fleet of the special individualizing tidings concerning Moby Dick. It was hardly to be doubted, that several vessels reported to have encountered, at such or such a time, or on such or such a meridian, a Sperm Whale of uncommon magnitude and malignity, which whale, after doing great mischief to his assailants, had completely escaped them; to some minds it was not an unfair presumption, I say, that the whale in question must have been no other than Moby Dick. Yet as of late the Sperm Whale fishery had been marked by various and not unfrequent instances of great ferocity, cunning, and malice in the monster attacked; therefore it was, that those who by accident ignorantly gave battle to Moby Dick; such hunters, perhaps, for the most part, were content to ascribe the peculiar terror he bred, more, as it were, to the perils of the Sperm Whale fishery at large, than to the individual cause. In that way, mostly, the disastrous encounter between Ahab and the whale had hitherto been popularly regarded.
And as for those who, previously hearing of the White Whale, by chance caught sight of him; in the beginning of the thing they had every one of them, almost, as boldly and fearlessly lowered for him, as for any other whale of that species. But at length, such calamities did ensue in these assaults — not restricted to sprained wrists and ankles, broken limbs, or devouring amputations — but fatal to the last degree of fatality; those repeated disastrous repulses, all accumulating and piling their terrors upon Moby Dick; those things had gone far to shake the fortitude of many brave hunters, to whom the story of the White Whale had eventually come.
Nor did wild rumors of all sorts fail to exaggerate, and still the more horrify the true histories of these deadly encounters. For not only do fabulous rumors naturally grow out of the very body of all surprising terrible events, — as the smitten tree gives birth to its fungi; but, in maritime life, far more than in that of terra firma, wild rumors abound, wherever there is any adequate reality for them to cling to. And as the sea surpasses the land in this matter, so the whale fishery surpasses every other sort of maritime life, in the wonderfulness and fearfulness of the rumors which sometimes circulate there. For not only are whalemen as a body unexempt from that ignorance and superstitiousness hereditary to all sailors; but of all sailors, they are by all odds the most directly brought into contact with whatever is appallingly astonishing in the sea; face to face they not only eye its greatest marvels, but, hand to jaw, give battle to them. Alone, in such remotest waters, that though you sailed a thousand miles, and passed a thousand shores, you would not come to any chiseled hearth-stone, or aught hospitable beneath that part of the sun; in such latitudes and longitudes, pursuing too such a calling as he does, the whaleman is wrapped by influences all tending to make his fancy pregnant with many a mighty birth.
No wonder, then, that ever gathering volume from the mere transit over the widest watery spaces, the outblown rumors of the White Whale did in the end incorporate with themselves all manner of morbid hints, and half-formed foetal suggestions of supernatural agencies, which eventually invested Moby Dick with new terrors unborrowed from anything that visibly appears. So that in many cases such a panic did he finally strike, that few who by those rumors, at least, had heard of the White Whale, few of those hunters were willing to encounter the perils of his jaw.
But there were still other and more vital practical influences at work. Not even at the present day has the original prestige of the Sperm Whale, as fearfully distinguished from all other species of the leviathan, died out of the minds of the whalemen as a body. There are those this day among them, who, though intelligent and courageous enough in offering battle to the Greenland or Right whale, would perhaps — either from professional inexperience, or incompetency, or timidity, decline a contest with the Sperm Whale; at any rate, there are plenty of whalemen, especially among those whaling nations not sailing under the American flag, who have never hostilely encountered the Sperm Whale, but whose sole knowledge of the leviathan is restricted to the ignoble monster primitively pursued in the North; seated on their hatches, these men will hearken with a childish fireside interest and awe, to the wild, strange tales of Southern whaling. Nor is the pre-eminent tremendousness of the great Sperm Whale anywhere more feelingly comprehended, than on board of those prows which stem him.
And as if the now tested reality of his might had in former legendary times thrown its shadow before it; we find some book naturalists — Olassen and Povelson — declaring the Sperm Whale not only to be a consternation to every other creature in the sea, but also to be so incredibly ferocious as continually to be athirst for human blood. Nor even down to so late a time as Cuvier's, were these or almost similar impressions effaced. For in his Natural History, the Baron himself affirms that at sight of the Sperm Whale, all fish (sharks included) are "struck with the most lively terrors," and "often in the precipitancy of their flight dash themselves against the rocks with such violence as to cause instantaneous death." And however the general experiences in the fishery may amend such reports as these; yet in their full terribleness, even to the bloodthirsty item of Povelson, the superstitious belief in them is, in some vicissitudes of their vocation, revived in the minds of the hunters.
So that overawed by the rumors and portents concerning him, not a few of the fishermen recalled, in reference to Moby Dick, the earlier days of the Sperm Whale fishery, when it was oftentimes hard to induce long practised Right whalemen to embark in the perils of this new and daring warfare; such men protesting that although other leviathans might be hopefully pursued, yet to chase and point lance at such an apparition as the Sperm Whale was not for mortal man. That to attempt it, would be inevitably to be torn into a quick eternity. On this head, there are some remarkable documents that may be consulted.
Nevertheless, some there were, who even in the face of these things were ready to give chase to Moby Dick; and a still greater number who, chancing only to hear of him distantly and vaguely, without the specific details of any certain calamity, and without superstitious accompaniments, were sufficiently hardy not to flee from the battle if offered.

They're going after the salons and businesses that carry the higher end hair extensions that are in the most demand. Reports are that thieves often go right past cash registers to get to their targeted items.

Adapting to attract MillennialsMonday December 22, 2014 Written by Brandi Cowen
Recruiting and retaining Millennials is important to the success of small businesses, but many struggle to attract younger workers.
According to the latest Quarterly American Express Small Business Monitor, 77 per cent of small business owners (SBOs) believe recruiting and retaining talent is important to their company's success. But 67 per cent believe finding the right candidate for their business is getting harder.
In fact, 26 per cent of owners admit finding a qualified employee keeps them up at night.
Re-evaluating job expectations
The end of baby boomers' working lives is a concern for half of owners who are grappling with the unknown new habits of Millennials. In particular, the top two social forces SBOs believe will influence staffing in the coming five years are aging boomers (51 per cent) and young workers' demands for greater flexibility and new benefits (43 per cent).
Many owners believe their corporate culture is important in recruiting young workers, prompting 69 per cent of these owners to adapt their businesses to appeal to younger workers.
"With the prominent shift in generations, the ability of SBOs to tailor their businesses, offerings and approach to attracting younger staff will be critical," said Athena Varmazis, vice-president and general manager of small business services with American Express Canada. "Remaining competitive and understanding the candidate pool is clearly the best way to attract and retain top talent."
While employers are adapting to the needs of Millennials, half of all SBOs report they're worried about the lack of qualified candidates to replace employees set to retire. Despite expressing concern, one-third (33 per cent) report an improvement in the quality of students fresh out of school.
Big perks for small business employees
Small business owners acknowledge the success of retaining top talent is often dependent on their ability to be competitive, but they also see value in promoting the advantages of working for a small business. In fact, the vast majority of SBOs (93 per cent) agree that small businesses have better relationships between staff and management.
While it's evident there's a great emphasis on creating personalized relationships with employees and creating a culture of innovation, three quarters of SBOs agree small businesses provide more potential for employee growth. Despite over half of SBOs (61 per cent) stating they are at a competitive disadvantage to larger companies when it comes to investing in talent, they continue to attract talent by appealing to the changing needs of candidates.
Northstar Research Partners was commissioned to conduct an online survey with a sample of 548 small business owners, each employing between one and 99 people. The survey was conducted between Oct. 14 and 20. The margin of error for a sample of this size is +/-4.2 per cent, 19 times out of 20.
