| PADavis chapter 4 . 12/26/2008
This was a lot of fun. Loved the twister references. I can totally see Dean as a storm chaser. And thanks for putting up these almost stand alone VS stories. I haven't read all the VS and at this point its a little intimidating to try to figure out which one I can read and not be lost. Thanks for putting the ones you can up here.
| bayre chapter 4 . 12/21/2008
I love the end! Still a great story.
| youthere chapter 4 . 12/19/2008
Phew, I'm so glad Nathan lived!
See, this is why I haven't ventured to read the VS, I can just see myself getting sucked into my computer for weeks, hooked on awesome stories like this... get thee behind me, temptress!
Loved this story :)
| bayre chapter 3 . 12/19/2008
Hehehhee...I know the end...not telling either.
Great update SJ!
| pandora jazz chapter 4 . 12/18/2008
You did a great job with the fight scene. I'm glad that Dean came back to help Sam, even after his little brother had tried to send him away.
One of my favorite parts was when Dean told Sam how he felt 'M Scared…" Dean admitted reluctantly. "Just a little though, and not of you, Sam. For you..."
So Nathan did live and Chelsea left with him. I liked the ending.
Thanks for sharing your story with us.
| Kira Reed chapter 4 . 12/18/2008
*stands up and claps!* Amazing job SJ! I really enjoyed this episode from start to finish. All three times! (read twice on VS)
I will say my favorite part in this chapter was the discussion that 'wasn't so hard' for Dean. That was written so beautifully. I was in tears in fact. The fight was amazing, I was holding my breath with it. Still amazes me that I can see it all playing out like that. Playing right before my eyes. Everytime. Just an amazing plot. I loved it!
*hugs tight*
You did an amazing job! See nothing to worry about. I am so happy for you, you did such a wonderful job with this. Look at all the reviews!
Also, great Firefly reference. *smiles* I really love that show. I know Mike really loved the reference, that Firefly junkie.
*hugs again* Hehe I don't have to wait to read your worderful writing. (Talking about SotW) Let them wonder what I am talking about. Love you! Everything came together so well and I can't stress that enough! Amazing work.
| deangirl1 chapter 4 . 12/18/2008
So great to get to read this again! Don't you wish the show had the budget to do a scene like your climax? Fabulour action! I particularly liked the scene at the end when Dean actually opens up enough to tell Sam that he is scared. But you got it exactly right - he's not scared OF Sam but FOR him. And I would add to that that he's also scared for himself - what he will have to do if he can't save Sam (of course, that part really only makes sense in the 'verse where John is dead...). Again, great story - perfect characterization and a phenomenal story - and the ending? Br...

Heya there
I'm enjoying the start of this story and looking forward to seeing where it goes. Supernatural twisters... very intriguing!
I've been lucky enough to mostly run into lovely people in my fanfic experience, but I've taken some class shit for other things that I've done (alotta, alotta...) What I've found very useful to keep in mind is to always be aware of where people are speaking FROM. What kind of things are they into?, what kind of things are they making themselves?, what kind of things do they have in their lives? Maybe they have a point... or maybe they're just not in a position or mind set to 'get it'.
I think this is especially important on the w, where you really don't know who the h**l is talking. Everyone speaks from a personal place and on the w you don't know what that place is. So, well, just because they've got a loud mouth...
Okay, okay done with the sermon, just thought I'd share :) On to the next chapter...
| parisindy chapter 4 . 12/17/2008
squea! that was great
thank you
| Lilwazzabug chapter 4 . 12/17/2008
Yay for happy endings!:D Good fic, dude!
| Nana56 chapter 4 . 12/17/2008
So Nathan and Chelsea are really all right and going off to start over somewhere? I sure do hope that's the case.
It seems like Chelsea also has that "gift"? Maybe they'll be okay as long as they have each other?
Like the Winchesters. They're okay together. I loved Sam asking his brother for reassurance and gets it.
Heavy fic! Really well done.
| Harrigan chapter 4 . 12/17/2008
I liked this. Sam and Dean willing to sacrifice themselves for each other - that's what the show is all about, and you capture that very well. Looking forward to more fic from you!
| Kira Reed chapter 3 . 12/17/2008
*wraps SJ up in a blanket* Aw, I am sorry it is so cold there. *hugs* It has been a very interesting month as far was weather in AZ. *shakes head*
Once again you have hooked the readers. *smiles* I LOVE the Firefly reference! That is a good one to pull for Supernatural. Nice choice too.
I still love Russ and now even more for his devotion to his van, yes, reminds me of someone. Those two will make good friends.
I love all the OCs you have in this episode, don't want anything bad to happen to them. And I love the way you had Dean afraid for his brother and not of that brings out the characters so much more. You do such a wonderful job with them.
I just love how I can just picture all of this happening, once again because of your details, so great to see it! Be mind blowing to see on the actual screen!
Hehe. *hugs tight*
You are an amazing writer and reading this again it's just always an amazing journey to read your work. Hehe I like the journey we are on. *smiles*
LOVE love love!
| parisindy chapter 2 . 12/16/2008
*flails* i'm behind gah! *runs off to catch up*
So love this story!
| pandora jazz chapter 3 . 12/15/2008
Enjoyed this chapter. Lots of action.
Sam sure seems to have a lot more abilities than I'm use too. Still trying to decide if I like that.
I felt sorry for Sam as he worried about what Dean thinks of him.
Nice twist there at the end. Who is Jay? Doesn't sound like the friend Nathan has known his whole life.
Thanks again for sharing your story with us.
Until next time, take care.


text: So I just recently got an 8gb Micro SD card. I had a 2gb previously with all my system information, games, ysmenu, and emulators, for my R4. Well, the R4 ran perfectly before i transferred all the data over to the 8gb and after it was all on there, I booted it up and it got stuck at the loading screen... So, I got all new firmware and I even used the R4bugFix. Dunno what else I can do.. It says on the box that my R4 came with that it can use up to a 32gb micro sd card. So, I don't know why exactly its doing this... Any suggestions? Help? Anyone know exactly what to do?

Thanks for the pictures. The boxes look great but can you show us the source.
I pray that Tenkaichi 2 on the Wii is a major upgrade from the first installment of the Tenkaichi game on PS2. I personally didnt like it. The WII lineup of games definitely has me sold!
yh heres the link=http://uk.wii.ign.com/articles/735/735577p1.html
Thanks for putting the source because I had not seen some that are in there. I hope they hurry up and make more boxarts.
I don't even know what Happy Feet is. o.o
Nice, pretty good covors. The dragon ball one looks kinda... plain, though.
Happy feet is amovie about penguins. I havent seen but that is what I have heard and I dont think I want to go see it.
They look alright. nothing special.
What i dont like about this is that Nintendo is making many kiddy games like Ant bully and Billy and Mandy.

The word is the brick that the palace of mind is made of…
Man is imprisoned by words. Man's whole problem is language. Below language is the world of the animals and beyond language is the world of the gods. Between the two is the world of man, the world of language, words — philosophies, scriptures, theories and ideologies. The mind consists of words. The word is the brick that the palace of mind is made of, it is the stuff it is made of.
Slowly, slowly, one has to go on dropping the words and one has to enter into silence. And that is not difficult: once you start trying to move towards it, it starts happening. The reality is when all words have disappeared, when you are not thinking but you just are…when there is no thought cloud in the mind but pure awareness, unclouded, an unclouded sky. When there is no thought there is no trembling, no winds are blowing. All is tranquil and quiet. In that quietude, one penetrates reality. Reality cannot be thought about. You can see it but you cannot think about it. To think about it is to go far away from it, because whatsoever you think will be wrong. Thinking is wrong.
You see a rose. What can you think about it? The moment you say it is beautiful, you have gone far away from the rose, from its facticity, from its reality. Now the mind has come in, it says it is beautiful. Now the word beautiful will create many other associations, a chain will start. You will forget about the flower, you will think about the man whom you used to think beautiful or a poem that you used to think beautiful. The flower is forgotten. Now you have got into a train of thoughts. It is unending and one never knows where one is going to land.

No one wants to buy this $129 mansion with 12 bedrooms and its own bowling alley
Dennis GreenMar 20, 2017, 10.48 PM
Read full story
most expensive home for sale in the US.
Later, he decided to try and rent it for $475,000 a month .
After nearly three years, it seems Greene is tired of hanging on to the property and is trying once again to offload it, according to Forbes. This time, the listing price is $129 million .Called "Palazzo di Amore," Greene's home was built for parties. It has an entertainment complex and ballroom, a private-label vineyard, and parking garages for more than two dozen cars. According to a statement, the house was "eight years of hard work," and Greene is selling it because the East Coast is now his base of operations.
Greene made a fortune when the real estate bubble burst in Greece and is worth about $3.4 billion, according to Forbes.
Stacy Gottula and Mauricio Umansky of The Agency now have the listing.
Julie Zeveloff contributed reporting to an earlier version of this post.
View As: One Page Slides
The Palazzo di Amore is not your ordinary mansion. It's a true party palace, with space to entertain 1,000 guests.
Visitors pass through three sets of gates before arriving at the grand home. The two-story entry has a pair of curved marble staircases.
The 15,000-square-foot "entertainment complex" is what sets this home apart. It has a ballroom with a revolving floor and can host 250 for a seated dinner.
Guests enter through a floating glass-floor walkway lined with olive trees.
There's a screening room that seats 50, as well as a bowling alley and game room.
Did we mention that the wine cellar holds 3,000 bottles and a tasting room?
But you'll need all that storage space, since the Palazzo di Amore has its own private-label vineyard, which produces around 400 cases a year.
Conveniently for your guests, the property has parking for 150 cars, as well as garages for 27.
Of course, it's not all fun and games. Get lost in thought by the 128-foot reflecting pool and fountain.
Or chill out in your personal spa. Or take a swim in the spacious pool. Or play a round of tennis on your private court.
With 53,000 square feet of space, this mansion is truly gigantic.
The home has 23 bathrooms and 12 bedrooms, including a 5,000-square-foot master suite. That's a small mansion in its own right.
And the views are undoubtedly spectacular.

NEW: Nikon D Town with Scott Kelby & Matt Kloskowski
You heard it hear first! As of 12:30am today, Friends-of-the-Blog Scott Kelby and Matt Kloskowski are launching a new weekly show for Nikon DSLR shooters called Nikon D-Town.
Partnering with Nikon, the show airs online each Thursday, and you can watch the premiere episode now! Each episode is full of tips and techniques to help you get the most of your Nikon gear. And the comment lines are open so viewers can add their own comments, tips and ask questions that might get answered in an upcoming show.
I've already watched the first episode and I think it's just great! Scott shows us how to set the white balance using "Live View," Matt shows us how to do some local adjustments with Nikon Capture, we learn a little bit about di-GPS, and an alternative method for reviewing our shots in-camera.
As always, these guys have produced a fantastic resource for digital photographers – of the Nikon persuasion – so that we can have all the tools we need to learn and grow in our art.
Check out Nikon D-Town now!
I know you may have been expecting the long-overdue return of The P&P Weekly but I'm working on a little retooling project for it and it's not quite ready yet. So be on the lookout for it next week. Promise!

This writer refers to our current situation, in the remnants of western civilization, as the Wolf Age. Generally one hears that we are approaching the apocalypse, but this writer disagrees as he has a different mindset. The mindset of those who follow the Nazarene is linear. To the Nazarene there is a creation of the physical world by a god aloof from his creation, the origination of man and the introduction of evil, lives led, death, judgement and an eternity spent in praising the creator or an eternity spent in punishment for denying the Middle Eastern god of love. It all occurs in a straight line. Mankind's mother, the earth, is merely an artifact to be used and tossed away because she is not eternal.
But this writer prefers western traditions and philosophies that existed prior to the interjection of the foreign Middle Eastern religions into our western civilization, which have afflicted our minds ever since. This writer envisions eternity as cycles without a clear beginning or ending. A swirling eternity that always was and always will be. Cycles of what we call time are always repeating themselves, the contents of which are never exactly the same or perfect. In other words, this writer is describing nature. Cycles of nature; where no straight lines exist. The straight line is a creation of man. However, this writer wonders if a line travels far enough will it not curve? Even man is eventually subject to nature. The earth is our mother because we cannot exist without her.
Man observed that plants and animals die, but return anew in the spring. There is a rebirth, a reincarnation of sorts, if something of the previous life returns in the new life. The old ways were similar to the many layers of an onion in which one could keep removing the outer layers and finding new ways of looking at things in each new layer. One could looks at the old myths in different ways, peeling layer after layer. Most will see the old gods and stories as cartoonish characters in outlandish stories fit only for a child. This is how the faithful of the Nazarene portray the stories of indigenous peoples; it robs their traditional stories of their power. One could dig deeper and peruse the stories and gods from a linear perspective.
In the Old Norse poem "Voluspa," a seeress is brought before an assemblage of the gods. The seeress tells the assembled about the creation of the worlds, the creation of man, the coming of strife and greed into the worlds and the eventual destruction of the worlds in Ragnarok or the twilight of the gods. There is a beginning, middle and an end; the results are known before the game begins. One's fate or weird is set and one moves in a straight line toward destiny saying one's lines on cue. The worlds and gods are concrete and tangible. There are the evil Jotuns of destruction versus the gods of order; which is a comfortable position for the dualistic thinker- especially in our current culture.
But one can dig deeper. The student of "Voluspa" will be aware of, but have a tendency to ignore what the seeress said would happen after Ragnarok. There will be new worlds, with a new generation of humans and a new generation of gods. "Voluspa" is cyclical just like nature. Something which is an oppositional force is not seen as evil, but as a necessary evil for destruction of stasis to allow for transformation during the cycle. This works for relative thinkers. The gods may be seen as synonymous with forces of nature or as aspects of one's higher self. The myths could be seen as stories of transformation through initiation hidden in plain view.
In the view of the controversial Varg Vikernes, the gods are what euro-folk should try to become in this world, after they have obtained their hamingja or ancestral honor. In other words, the trufolk are the gods of this world. To some that would be a very heretical statement and will certainly not be embraced by most. However, to relative thinkers all positions are viable; they are just different levels of the onion. The syncretic thinker understands the various layers of the onion (myths/traditions) and takes the position which he believes will best serve his people and tradition, while maintaining respect for the other positions. Other layers are just as viable and they are still part of the same onion.
Why is this important to understanding the wolf age in which we find ourselves? Because this writer wanted to express that there are different ways of looking at the lore, which is part of a folk soul, and they should be respected. In the "Voluspa" the seeress said:
"an axe age, a sword age
shields are riven
a wind age, a wolf age
before the world goes headlong.
No man will have
mercy on another"
The above quote certainly describes the world in which we find ourselves today. One could take a Middle Eastern linear view of our situation; that we are on a one way trip to oblivion and there is nothing we can do about it. It is a type of thinking with an external locus of control; which is the way our enemies want us to think. However we could look at this with a different perspective a more natural cyclical perspective. If one takes the position that a part of an individual survives death and is reborn in one's descendants; one's core essence is therefore immortal. We are our ancestors and eternity is on our side. What will change during the cycles are the body and the personality. Entering the different cycles during times such as the Wolf Age provides an opportunity for one to rise to the challenges presented, increasing one's honor.
If one does what is right in difficult times, one's honor will continue to grow making one's core essence or hamingja stronger. The stronger the hamingja one possesses, the more like the gods of one's people one becomes. If one does dishonorable things, one's hamingja becomes weaker. If the hamingjas of the members of a family or tribe become weaker, they as a people become weaker and may disappear altogether. That is why the heroic epic is important in a society, to provide a blue print of how to behave in difficult circumstances. Heroes are not to be watched as in a spectator sport, but emulated in pain and danger.
One may not control one's immediate negative circumstances, but one can control how one will react to those circumstances and that is enough. Those reactions should be based on the heroic examples of one's own people. One must develop an internal locus of control confidently anchored in one's ancestral hamingja. At the center of the onion or mythology is the hero. If a people loses its hero, it must be recovered if they are to again become a healthy people. The lore is a road map to find the hero. The wolf age is the opportunity to recover the hero by peeling back the layers of the onion.

Back in 1990, Hot Rize won the first-ever IBMA entertainer award — even though they had just broken up, amicably. For decades, the band would still play the occasional fundraiser or festival, but they managed to stay out of the studio. However, Hot Rize will soon rise again.
Next month, they'll finally release a brand new album, When I'm Free. The project should satisfy longtime listeners — due to the band's determination to honor their traditional roots — while keeping an emphasis on strong songwriting and obvious rapport. They're also planning their most extensive tour since their 1980s heyday.
Check out the CMT Edge video premiere of "Blue Is Fallin'," then read more about the upcoming project.
Tim O'Brien and Nick Forster fielded some questions by email about the new project, which will be released on Sept. 30, just in time for IBMA festivities in Raleigh, North Carolina.
CMT Edge: The video is beautifully shot. Where was it filmed?
O'Brien: It was filmed in Boulder, Colorado, which is where we formed Hot Rize back in 1978. The large venue is Macky Auditorium [on the University of Colorado campus] where we contributed to Pickin' Up the Pieces, a bluegrass benefit for victims of last September's flood. The other venues are the stage and the recording studio at eTown Hall. Lots of folks know about eTown, the radio show that our bassist Nick Forster launched back in 1990. Our soon-to-be-released CD, When I'm Free, was the first project to be recorded at the new eTown studio, and Nick and the eTown staff, along with our banjoist Pete Wernick, contributed greatly to the success of that benefit. Zack Littlefield, an eTown staffer, did the video.
This will be your first album in 24 years, and a lot has changed in the music world, obviously. But what has remained the same — in terms of your music and your camaraderie?
Forster: This was the most relaxed we've been in terms of making a record. We got together with a bunch of songs from each of us and decided which ones we wanted to pursue and try out, and we did it in a way that we had never tried before — siting in a circle, no headphones, looking at each other and cutting lead vocals live. This was our first real effort in the studio with Bryan Sutton, our guitar player for more than a decade, so that was also a new thing for us to discover and explore.
O'Brien: Hot Rize has its own way of playing traditional bluegrass, and after many years of letting that lie fallow, we did our best to continue in the same vein. We always put a premium on good new songs, and we're proud of the material on this new recording. Pete's banjo style is unique, as is Nick's bass playing, and the vocal blend from the original three is still a comfortable feature. While Bryan has the scariest job of all — filling the shoes of the late and much-beloved Charles Sawtelle — he grew up listening to our records on the way to grade school, so he took special care to continue and extend that guitar sound.
In the late '70s and early '80s, there was a pendulum swing back to a more straightforward approach, and we were part of that, along with the Johnson Mountain Boys and Nashville Bluegrass Band, but we also had our own vocal and instrumental chemistry. Coming into the project, I was a little apprehensive about getting back to where we left things 24 years ago, and I'm happy to report that we got there.
As for the bond between us, it only takes a few hours before we start laughing about stuff only we know about. It's a great thing, like a family reunion.
You guys always look spiffy when you take the stage. Why is that important to you?
O'Brien: The suits and loud ties echo the old '40s and '50s look of the Bluegrass Boys and the Foggy Mountain Boys. Like them, we all sing around a single mic. The choreography required for that, along with the stage clothes, kinda sets a tone and makes for more of a show. Really, we're paying tribute to bluegrass' first generation every time we play, even if we've updated the music in our sorta Rocky Mountain way. Any artist strives to stake out their own identity, and our look — plus our sound — helped us define that. Of course, our parents liked the suits, too! But the care we give to all aspects of our live show is really about respecting our audience.
Forster: We started wearing suits and ties when we were a young band from Colorado as a sign of respect for the bluegrass founders and as a way to set ourselves apart from our contemporaries who were dressed more casually. We also had thrift store suits and vintage ties, so even our friends knew we weren't taking ourselves too seriously. These days, it's become a part of what people expect when they go to a Hot Rize show. Charles Sawtelle, our guitar player who died in 1999, encouraged us to look sharp onstage, too. He loved the old pictures from the Opry and that informed his approach to performing and playing bluegrass. Gotta look sharp!

Good looking seat,looks great on my triumph thunderbird 1600.comfort level is ok for short distance would not recommend for long trips
I have been riding this seat for 1 1/2 yrs. & just rode 350 miles for 7 hrs. and this seat is awsome. Probably the most comfortable seat i've rode on, and there have been many..
Greatlooking seat, have it on my '06 street glide. Lower seat height versus stock. Recomend for around town not on long trips. Rode it from West Texas to Sturgis, big mistake!
Great seat so far. I wanted somehting that would sit lower and allow me to sit further back so that I could extend my legs more. This seat does exactly that. Great product
Nice seat looks great real firm but that's the price of good looks!
Beautiful! Love the stitching, love the look! Makes my 2003 HD Ultra Classic look even better. Named my Bike Sophia (Loren), - this seat adds to her curves and makes the Bike look GREAT. I think the seat is too hard for long rides, but other than that I'm very happy with it : ) RMR, MSgt, USAF, Retired
Didn't get all the mounting hardware......
Deliver and service and product excellent
I ordered this seat with rush processing and 2 day delivery for my upcoming road trip. Somehow the delivery method I selected changed, and the seat was not able to arrive prior to my trip. J&P was very cooperative and arranged to have the seat turned around before arriving at my house, and then refunded my account.
Looks great uncomfortable as heck
The girl loves this seat, says her toosh fits perfect.
Really nice !! Comfortable. Easy to install.
Little stiff at first but breaks in well. Not much back support but comfortable. Well made looks good
Fantastic!!! Great riding seat as the driver or the passenger!
Th seat was comfortable and provided a slightly lower heighth, which was the objective.
I found the seat to be of top quality and easy to install. My wife likes the additional width and padding. Looks good on the Nightrain and is made in the USA
Badazzz, at least so far. Put it on 09 Night Train lastnight and looks great! Well made and perfect fit. Backseat comfort for the wife. Wish I'd got it sooner
Love the seat and delivery was good as usual.
I love this new seat! My '08 Electraglide came with the stock seat, both too high and too far forward, and the Mustang Daytripper seat dropped me almost 2 inches and back almost the same! Posture is better, shifter and brake ergonomics improved immensely. Great purchase!
Took a little muscle to get the seat locked in place, but it looks and rides great. It's really nice to have the comfort of a Mustang seat (even bigger improvement for a passenger) without ruining the sporty look of the bike.
Great seat perfect for riding two up also. great two up seat without the bulky look feels great no complaints.
Quality and construction is excellent. As the name applies this is for day trips, not for cross country or several hundred mile trips.

This One Little Technique Has Earned Me a Small Fortune – Now it's yours FREE!
By action | February 5, 2008
This is such a simple system that anyone on your team can be up and running within 15-minutes using it!
I have had brand spanking new people who knew nothing of their business or this industry who found success using this system.
In fact, a few years ago I was with a company that sold legal services and identity theft services and my first Executive Director actually became a Bronze executive using this system within something like 90-days.
Watch the short *FREE* video for all of the details including the links, scripts etc.

J.R. – If we are all utilizing the downline reports won't it be repetitive in contacting the same people? Appreciate your input on this. I am definitely checking it out. I am presently utilizing any means I am able to gain team members.
Thank you

Hi J.R.
Love the tips! I belong to a legal services company. Which website did you send people to that responded positively to your downline reports.com phone call?
Steve P
J.R. Says:
February 5th, 2008 at 8:10 pm
Monica you would think that would happen but like anything most people will not stick with it long enough to achieve success.
Think of all of the overweight people in America who own 1 or more fitness machines and never use them.
How about all the people who have purchased a money making package but never took the time to open up the package.
If you buy a downline report from http://www.downlinereports.com and work it consistenly you will have success.
J.R. Says:

Steve I actually created my own 30-minute webcast which was the most duplicated system in the company.
Here are some testimonials I got from some of the leaders in the company when I asked them what they thought of my webcast:
"First of all Congratulations on achieving Platinum ED!! The company is REALLY cracking down on websites & even shut down Frank & Theresa's team training website to review everything. We all have to be so careful what's "Out there" because we are being watched very closely."
"GREAT to hear from you….. First let me say, CONGRATS on your recent success. I have been hearing your name a lot on the Monday morning
Leadership Calls. David Bruerd"
"I have reviewed the online orientation and I was left asking "why haven't we (as a company) been using this for years!?" I am looking forward to this type of presentation being available on a wide-scale – as it is for many other companies. Josh Elledge"
"Gotcha. I appreciate that. But please just do not send it to anyone on my team, I do not want them getting distracted by "the wheel being re-invented"… I do like the tool, just do not need another tool confusing people unless company endorsed and agreed upon 🙂 Brian Carruthers"
Interesting to note that a few months later Brian Carruthers and Cutting Edge Media started the buildlastingsuccess.com system
"This is Great!! I am still viewing it now.
You are talking about Compensation.. Joshua Denne"
I have a lot more testimonials like these. I have them with date and IP stamps for confirmation.
I even heard from an associate in the company who was told that a certain distributor with their company had them login to my system and steal my presentation. He then went out and created "at least 120 sites" (that is what this associate was told).
Recently I had a threat from a Platinum who said if I do not stop trying to cross-recruit people (which I have no idea what he is talking about as this site does not promote any one opportunity) that I'm next in line to be sued by this legal services company.
While I do not want to comment publicly about this I will say I would love the opportunity to be sued by them. Yes Tony you read it here first! I have so many emails, voicemails etc that I would love to bring out in the open. On top of that the publicity would be fantastic for me and my websites.
My blog is not meant to be a complaint forum.
I'm spending my time and money creating a resource where anyone from any company can come and get real world marketing tips and techniques to build their business.

Hi I was wondering when making calls if you receive a answering machine should you leave a quick message with you website name? Thanks for your help. It does work I got LOTS of people today from your script to go to my web site. Keep calling Melody.
Steve P Says:
February 14th, 2008 at 7:34 pm
I admit I'm a wuss when it comes to making calls to people I don't know (ie downlinereports.com) I actually do make a few, but hate it. If people are calling me I've got no problem. Do any of your 101 ways contain ways to build a downline without having to make that initial call? I saw in your resume extractor method that there are some emails we can use. Using that system, do I then need to make a call, or from the email messages, do people call me? Thanks.
J.R. Says:

Steve I use the resume system at http://jrjackson.com/101-techniques-to-build-your-downline/order-how-to-build-your-business-using-resumes/ and email a few hundreds to a few thousand people each day.
I send the prospect to a website which contains a squeeze page. The squeeze page captures their contact info and then it sends them to a site with either an audio or video (which I prefer) presentation.
After the audio or video presentation I like to have another form which asks them if they are an A, B or C
– A = absolutely see an opportunity and want to join now
– B = have some questions
– C = C'ya later, not interested
Go to http://jrjackson.com/101-techniques-to-build-your-downline/order-how-to-build-your-business-using-resumes/ and get this video training system. It has changed my life forever and I'm confident it will change yours too.

Hi J.R.,
Thanks for visiting my site. I will also be visiting your site. You have a very informative blog. Great setup and feel to it. My primary company that I work with is in Utah. I have only been through Utah once about 5 years ago on a trip to Las Vegas from Vancouver, BC. My wife and I found it to be a beautiful place. Talk to you soon.

In what format do the lists from downlinereports.com come in? CSV,text or? I'm wondering if you can import them easily?
J.R. Says:
February 18th, 2008 at 7:09 pm
Andrew the reports come in CSV format which is the same as TXT. You can easily import them into excel, email programs like Outlook etc.
The first time I used this technique I recruited one of the top reps in Canada for a company called Usana.
Once you use downlinereports.com you will use them forever.
Mark McCullagh Says:
February 18th, 2008 at 11:47 pm
I tried doing this before and I just hated it. I really hated the cold calling.
I guess I would have to change how I feel about this type of marketing if I was to try it again.
Glad to see it works for you. You can't argue with success!
J.R. Says:
February 18th, 2008 at 11:55 pm
Mark if you do not like making the calls you can always send them an email. I have tried both and have had success with both.
Andrew Murphy Says:
February 19th, 2008 at 1:35 am
You have to get over the fear of cold calling. Just have a script that you have adjusted to your personality so it becomes second nature to you and natural. I was one of those people that feared doing it for years but once you actually start doing it you'll find it becomes easier. You just have to be truly passionate about why you are building your business and then just hit it, and hit it, and hit again until something positive comes from it. It's just a numbers game.
J.R. Says:
February 19th, 2008 at 5:07 pm
I have a script that I use that is so simple and easy to use that I know anyone who is serious about wanting to generate a 6 0r even a 7-figure income with network marketing can achieve it.
Check out http://www.downlinereports.com – they are including my script with every downline report.
If you are looking for something more passive where you do not have to call anyone then I recommend http://jrjackson.com/101-techniques-to-build-your-downline/order-how-to-build-your-business-using-resumes/
J.R. Jackson
Andrew Murphy Says:
February 20th, 2008 at 6:53 pm
With these downline reports it seems that we might be overstepping the boundaries of the Do Not Call List becuase they have not given you permission to contact them initially. Do you see any problems with this or have you experienced problems with this?
J.R. Says:
February 22nd, 2008 at 3:15 am
First of all I am not an attorney so you might want to consult with an attorney on this matter.
Of the thousands of people I have called, I have gotten very few complaints about the people being on the National Do Not Call List. I sound nothing like a telemarketer… so the complaints are rare.
But, if someone complains that they should not be called because of the list, I am very respectful. I apologize for the mistake, promise to remove their name from my list, and quickly hang up. I have never had any trouble at all.
I have seen many arguments that the laws do not apply to network marketers but again you might want to consult with attorney if you have additional questions.
J.R. Jackson
Andrew Murphy Says:
February 23rd, 2008 at 12:17 am
It's all in how you present yourself. Being respectful is always a good thing.
Thanks for the info J.R.
Have a great weekend!

Loved the 101-resumes video. I missed the live date so had to pay the $20. It was well worth the cost. Have watched the Downline Reports and found it very informative. It's good to finally have something we as MLM'ers can go to and get good, honest training to learn this business. I'm looking forward to using some of your techniques. Keep up the good work.
J.R. Says:
February 25th, 2008 at 6:09 pm
I'm glad you liked the training.
Now just get a hold of some resumes and get busy promoting your business.
You will be amazed how fast your downline will grow.
The key is to get a few of your people to also go through the training and get them working the same leads.
J.R. Jackson
J.R. Says:
February 28th, 2008 at 7:48 pm

Hi I am so excited about the resumes video, I have done networking for 18 years and thought I new everything there was to know, however I never even thought about doing résumés in this fashion. I have done ads and had people send me résumés. This is so much more efficient; I never spend money online and was reluctant to spend the 20 bucks. I am so glad I did the training was awesome and I will be using your resume service. Do you have anymore trainings planned in the near future? I am open to anything you have to share and will promote it with my team.

I'm currently rocking a caramel colored Junior Drake hobo which I love, but it doesn't quite compare to yours!
The bag is BEAUTIFUL! Any modeling shots? :)ReplyDelete
I've been lusting after Miu Miu's shopping pattina since forever and wasn't able to get one during the last sale =/ Oh well, I'll just have to hope it pops up on eBay sooner or later. Right now I've got my eyes on Rebecca Minkoff's Covet in nude ostrich... but it's not coming out until Dec!
Welcome back! At least the weather got a little cooler for your return, but I'm sorry to hear you aren't feeling great.ReplyDelete
Beautiful Miu Miu purse. What a fun way to remember a great trip! My favorite bag is of course the J.Crew Brompton which I ended up buying last weekend. Couldn't be more happy with my purchase.

BP Shareholders Reject Resolution to Require Environmental Reports on Canadian Tar Sands
BP shareholders rejected a resolution on April 15, Special Resolution No. 25, which would require reports on the financial, environmental and social risks of Canadian oil sands drilling. Shareholders voted on the resolution during the annual general meeting in London. Only six percent of investors voted in favor of the resolution, while nine percent abstained, and over 85 percent voted against it. Shell, ConocoPhillips and ExxonMobil all plan to file similar resolutions.
BP is set to invest $10 billion in the Sunrise tar sands project located in Alberta, plus spend $2.5 billion converting a refinery in Toledo, Ohio so it can process the synthetic crude oil produced from the tar sands. BP's capital investment in 2008 was over $30 billion and $20 billion in 2009. However, BP only invested $4 billion in alternative energy since 2005, which is something that CEO Tony Hayward touted during the annual meeting. "All forms of energy will play a role in our future, from oil sands to solar," Hayward said.
Environmentalists are concerned about oil sands drilling. Greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from oil sands projects are higher than emissions for conventional oil. BP estimates emissions to be 5 to 15 percent higher, but Pembina Institute, an environmental think tank, estimates oil sands emissions are up to 40 percent higher. Other concerns about oil sands drilling include deforestation, water use and toxic waste creation.
The World Wildlife Federation released a report last month (WWF) report about oil sands drilling. The Canadian Energy Research Institute estimated that $379 billion investment is required by 2025 to bring production to around four million barrels per day (bpd). Canada has probable reserves of 315 billion barrels. Tar sands production is presently around 1.3 million barrels a day (bpd). Estimates of future production range from 2.5 to 6.2 million bpd by 2020.
According to the report, $379 billion could do the following:
- Cover the cost of Desertec Industrial Initiative, which would link North Africa solar plants into a supergrid covering Europe, and supply 15 percent of Europe's electricity needs by 2050.
- Fund a Europe-wide shift to electric vehicles.
- Fund infrastructure for a Europe-wide system of electronic vehicles (EV) plus subsidize EV sales
- Help fund wind power investment from now to 2025. EU targets for wind energy are 20 percent of electricity demands by 2020 and 34 percent by 2030.
- In the U.S., would meet total construction cost for the 251 GW of onshore wind power needed to meet the target of 20 percent of electricity demands by 2030 from wind power.
- In Canada, $14 billion (Canadian Dollars) of investment is needed for converting to smart grids across the country.
- An investment of $77 billion would pay for expanding urban transit across Canada and new high speed intercity train systems for Québec City–Windsor, Edmonton–Calgary and Vancouver–Seattle.
Continued oil sands drilling would increase atmospheric carbon up to 12 parts per million (ppm). The current level of atmospheric carbon is around 430 ppm and increasing. The critical tipping point the majority of scientists agree on that would cause devastating impacts is 450 ppm and beyond.
In BP's sustainability report for 2009, it laid out the reasons for investing in Canadian oil sands:
BP has a clear strategy to invest to grow exploration and production profitably through a portfolio of leadership positions in the world's most prolific hydrocarbon basins. Canada's oil sands more than qualify, being second only to Saudi Arabia in terms of proven reserves. BP creates value through the application of technology and capability to drive performance and operating efficiency. Also, through BP's Midwest US refineries there is a distinctive opportunity to create a balanced portfolio of upstream production and downstream conversion, which will allow BP to participate in the margin across the whole value chain.
The U.S. imports more oil from Canada than from any other country, about 19 percent of its total foreign supply. "Oil sands represent a decision point for North America and the world," said Simon Dyer of the Pembina Institute, a Canadian environmental group. "Are we going to get serious about alternative energy, or are we going to go down the unconventional-oil track? The fact that we're willing to move four tons of earth for a single barrel really shows that the world is running out of easy oil."
Take action!
Canadian, if you are as outraged, please sign the petition, Stop Selling Tar Sands of Canada. Americans, if you are equally outraged, sign the petition, Stop the Alberta Tar Sands Pipeline to the US.

Opportunity for more private investment in high-growth market where Canada has a global advantage
TORONTO, April 5, 2017 /CNW/ - Canada's leadership in the development of renewable energy and of technologies that emit lower carbon emissions provides an opportunity for more private investors to capture the proceeds of a high-growth market.
That was the message delivered by the Honourable Navdeep Bains, Minister of Innovation, Science and Economic Development, at a conference sponsored by GLOBE Capital, a convenor of conferences on sustainable business.
Minister Bains described the Government of Canada's clean technology strategy, outlined in Budget 2017. The strategy includes:
All these elements will require the full participation of the private sector, which has a significant opportunity to invest in the scale-up of Canadian clean-tech companies and capture the proceeds of their growth.
Creating new opportunities for Canadians to do business more easily and accelerating the growth of their companies are priorities in the Government's Innovation and Skills Plan. The plan will ensure that Canadians develop the skills and seize new opportunities to succeed in a growing economy.
"Canada's globally recognized expertise in clean technology is a promising area for growth and investment. It's also an area of the economy that cushions us against the intensifying effects of climate change. Clean technology points to a clear and strategic direction for economic development through innovation. Clean tech shows that conservation and innovation can be competitive advantages. Now is the time for Canada to reinforce its globally competitive advantage in clean tech. Our country can serve as a model to all nations seeking a responsible, sustainable way of life. The time to invest in Canada is now."
