Kick Start Your marketing
I believe that the three most important start up marketing tools you need to get and keep new customers center around communication. These modalities are;
In person: It's essential you meet with customers/clients in person whenever possible. This shows you respect them and take the time to work with your clients to give personal attention to each of them.
Follow up letter: Always take a moment to send a follow up letter about what you talked about, new agreements or partnerships made and to thank them for taking the time to meet with you. Likewise, you should always send thank you letters or small gifts to partners you find success with.
Phone call: Use a telephone call to follow up with them to talk again about the matters you talked about in your meeting and offer any assistance you can to help their business run smoothly and more successfully.
None of these will work if you don't have a quality product/service to back you up!
Here are the key steps for putting together your start-up marketing tools:
Research potential customers, buyers, competitors and their preferred methods of distribution.
Talk to potential customers. Take a hard look at your product from a customer's perspective and see what it needs to be successful.
Follow up with your 3-step process from above.
Develop systems for contact follow through, quality control standards and customer service.
Develop post-sale follow up system to keep lines of communication open is customers and build on your current relationship which increases future purchases.
"Marketing and innovation produce results; all the rest are costs" Peter Drucker, management consultant
Here's another one I love from an icon:
"If there is any one secret of success, it lies in the ability to get the other person's point of view and see things from that person's angle as well as from your own." Henry Ford, Founder of Ford Motor Company
This lesson has offered you the tools to put together a start-up marketing plan that can be used over and over again to help your customer base And business grow in a manageable way. The tools offered in our FREE test drive offer these very same things.
There are two things EVERY business owner wants. First, they want to generate more leads, attract more clients and make more money so they can eliminate any current financial distress they find themselves in. Second, they want to reach $1 million in annual revenue so they can begin to live the life they have always dreamed of having and so richly deserve.
The most expensive and difficult function of any business
is acquiring new customers.
The reason it's difficult has nothing to do with you, your business or your marketing. It has to do with the growth of the Internet and the tremendous number of scams and charlatans that lurk online offering every bogus product and service you can imagine.
People today are often highly skeptical of any product, service or offer… both offline and online. Consider the last time you heard an offer that you thought sounded valuable. You more than likely discovered that the offer came with certain restrictions, mandatory conditions or a buyer beware non-guaranteed transaction.
Prospects buy with their eyes… not their ears. They also need to know, like and trust you before they will buy what you're offering. Or they need to know and trust the person that's recommending what you sell.
Put us to the test. Watch our business-altering video titled The 3 Biggest Lead Generation Mistakes Small Businesses Make… And How To Overcome Them All. We'll reveal the strategies you can immediately deploy that will enable you to out-think, out-market and out-sell your competition.

In the last days, there's been a frightening amount of misinformation and rumor mongering out there about the moving of the U.S. Embassy to the Holy See.
Mark Twain once suggested that misinformation can move around the world, "while the truth is putting on its shoes." That's apparently twice as true in Washington these days.
But here's the truth -- facts, not opinions or wild surmisals: the United States is moving the location of the Embassy to a building that is safer, bigger, and architecturally more appealing. It also is slightly closer to Vatican City.
Let me repeat that point: it's closer to Vatican City than the current location.
Why do I need to state these facts? Because some have actually suggested that the United States has been considering closing the Embassy, or downgrading its status. Nothing could be farther from the truth. Nothing. Not only does the United States continue to respect the Holy See as a crucial bilateral partner in promoting religious freedom, protecting religious minorities, advancing humanitarian causes, and mitigating conflicts around the world, but Secretary Kerry, our first Catholic Seceretary of State in more than thirty years, is personally inspired by the Church's work on issues from peace to global poverty, issues at the heart of Catholic social teaching.
So, if you hear or read misinformation, I hope you'll share the truth - the facts - with folks who may be on the receiving end of some false rumors. Here are the facts, and like they say, 'facts are stubborn things:' At the end of 2014 or early 2015, we will move the U.S. Embassy to the Holy See from its current location near the Circus Maximus in Rome to a U.S. government-owned compound less than two miles away. The new location, which also houses the U.S. Embassy to Italy and U.S. Mission to the United Nations Agencies, is actually closer to Vatican City than the current location. The historic and beautiful building that will house the future Embassy provides ideal and expanded office space for the U.S. diplomats who do the critical work of representing the United States to the Holy See. The future Embassy will be 78 percent larger than the current Embassy. The residence of the U.S. Ambassador to the Holy See will not change.
All three diplomatic missions on the U.S. compound will retain their distinct character and functions. Each will continue to have independently accredited ambassadors working in separate buildings. Each Embassy will have a separate street address and entrance. The Embassy to the Holy See will continue to operate independently from the other two U.S. Embassies in Rome. It will remain one of the largest foreign missions from any country accredited to the Holy See. We will not reduce our diplomatic workforce. At the same time, the Embassy to the Holy See will benefit from synergies related to collocation with the other U.S. government facilities and resources.
Security is our top priority in making this move. The State Department is working to implement all of the independent Benghazi Accountability Review Board (ARB) recommendations, to include a renewed call for U.S. government facilities to be collocated when they are in the same metropolitan area. The ARB followed a more specific 2008 recommendation by State's Inspector General to move the Embassy to the U.S. compound. The relocation will enhance security for the employees and facilities of the Embassy to the Holy See, and for visitors to that embassy, in a manner that also happens to be fiscally prudent.
Based on many conversations with Vatican officials over the past several months, we are confident they not only understand the reasons for our decision, but appreciate that our design plan adequately accounts for the independent and separate identity of the mission.
We look forward to continuing and even expanding our high and positive levels of engagement with the Holy See from our future Embassy.

Let's Fight About a Gay-Sex Videogame This Christmas Season
Dragon Age: Origins has taken the terribly awkward genre of videogame dialog and melded it with gay romance and, also gay sex scenes. Who, in these United States, could possibly object to foisting this content on teenaged boys?
Oh, right, like half the population. Here's right-wing panic site World Net Daily's aghast summary of the game, via Wonkette:
The elf reveals he specializes in assassination, and the other character replies, "I bet you're good at a lot of things."
The elf responds, "Mmmm, that's quite an offer, especially coming from another man – if we are both speaking of the same thing."
If the player selects the response, "I suspect we are," the elf agrees to have homosexual sex with the character.
WND then quotes selectively from gay blogs ("Gay geeks rejoice, all your gaming fantasies have come true") and YouTube comments ("We're a bisexual nation living in denial") and provides a list of retailers (like Wal Mart!) presumably for boycotting. Because, you know, if there's one way to make gay sex look hot and appealing, it's by showcasing it with stilted dialog, jerky body movements and elf ears, in a role playing videogame like Dragon Age. Hottt.

Home > Who We Are > News > $78M to end congestion at I-95, JTB
Published on February 19, 2013
Gov. Rick Scott, along with Florida Department of Transportation Secretary Ananth Prasad, announced on Tuesday an additional $78 million project to improve the safety and mobility on Interstate 95 and J. Turner Butler Boulevard.
The traffic count on eastbound JTB is expected to double over the next 20 years, from 24,000 people a day to nearly 50,000, which is the reason Scott said improvements are in the works.
The funding is included in Scott's Florida Families First Budget that he unveiled last month.
"Every day, motorists line up on I-95 to exit onto JTB, and it's dangerous -- so many cars to be bottle necked on the interstate," Scott said. "People would rather get home to their families rather than sit on JTB or I-95."
"This $78 million investment means families will be safer, businesses will be able to save money and move goods faster, and Florida families won't spend nearly as much time in traffic. ... This project could essentially save lives as it improves access for those trying to reach St. Vincent's Medical Center Southside and the Mayo Clinic."
The investment will focus on three primary improvements. First, FDOT will construct a flyover ramp for I-95 southbound traffic heading east onto JTB to provide a free-flowing direct connection to JTB.
Second, an overpass is going to be constructed for JTB westbound traffic to pass over the westbound traffic from Belfort Road. This overpass will eliminate the merging conflicts and reduce congestion at Belfort Road.
Third, FDOT will reconstruct the I-95 northbound off-ramp. The reconstructed ramp will provide direct access to westbound JTB from I-95 northbound. That movement is currently prohibited.
Scott said the project will reduce travel time by 10-15 minutes and at the same time boost the local economy.
"Gov. Scott's transportation budget fully funds the department's improvements, which will increase capacity, reduce congestion and create private-sector jobs," Prasad said. "I applaud Gov. Scott's continued focus on funding strategic transportation investments, which strengthens our economy and lowers the cost of living for Florida's families."
"We appreciate the governor's investment in Jacksonville," Mayor Alvin Brown said. "The I-95/JTB intersection is a challenge for too many of our citizens, and I'm glad the governor has prioritized this project in his budget. By relieving congestion, we'll make commutes safer and enhance commerce."

Warlight: A novel (Hardcover)
May 2018 Indie Next List
"With his usual virtuosity, master storyteller Michael Ondaatje delivers a mysterious, shimmering new coming-of-age novel. Warlight is the unexpected story of two teenagers abandoned by their enigmatic parents in post-war London. Casually watched over by a dodgy cast of characters - petty criminals, opera singers, and panting greyhounds - Nathaniel and Rachel try to make sense of their new world while struggling to define their parents' shadowy wartime pasts. Years later, Nathaniel embarks on a quest to discover the disturbing truth, and his own unwitting part in it. Balancing poignance with surprising comic touches, Warlight is a stellar addition to the Ondaatje canon."
— Chrysler Szarlan, Odyssey Bookshop, South Hadley, MA
From the internationally acclaimed, best-selling author of The English Patient: a mesmerizing new novel that tells a dramatic story set in the decade after World War II through the lives of a small group of unexpected characters and two teenagers whose lives are indelibly shaped by their unwitting involvement.
In a narrative as beguiling and mysterious as memory itself--shadowed and luminous at once--we read the story of fourteen-year-old Nathaniel, and his older sister, Rachel. In 1945, just after World War II, they stay behind in London when their parents move to Singapore, leaving them in the care of a mysterious figure named The Moth. They suspect he might be a criminal, and they grow both more convinced and less concerned as they come to know his eccentric crew of friends: men and women joined by a shared history of unspecified service during the war, all of whom seem, in some way, determined now to protect, and educate (in rather unusual ways) Rachel and Nathaniel. But are they really what and who they claim to be? And what does it mean when the siblings' mother returns after months of silence without their father, explaining nothing, excusing nothing? A dozen years later, Nathaniel begins to uncover all that he didn't know and understand in that time, and it is this journey--through facts, recollection, and imagination--that he narrates in this masterwork from one of the great writers of our time.

Born in Sri Lanka, Michael Ondaatje lives in Toronto, Canada.
Praise For…
"Warlight is a quiet new masterpiece from Michael Ondaatje…An elegiac thriller [with] the immediate allure of a dark fairy tale. In Warlight, all is illuminated, at first dimly then starkly, but always brilliantly." —Anna Mundow, The Washington Post
"If writers are cartographers of the heart, Michael Ondaatje's oeuvre could fill an atlas. . . [he] evokes a kaleidoscope of ideas and moods with exquisite lyricism…Warlight is an intricate ballet of longing and deception, and a singular ode to the mother-child bond." —Hamilton Cain, O Magazine
"[Ondaatje] casts a magical spell, as he takes you into his half-lit world of war and love, death and loss, and the dark waterways of the past." —Hermione Lee, New York Review of Books
"Mr. Ondaatje has stepped into John de la Carré's world of spies and criminals…his novel views history as a child would, in ignorance but also innocence and wonder." —Sam Sacks, WSJ
"[An] intricate and absorbing novel. . . . This is a book rich with detail. The reader is bound to be conscious of a hidden ballast of research, the seven-eighths of the iceberg without which the thing would founder, but so deft is the writing that you forget this, simply appreciating the meticulous background that brings alive a time and a place. —Penelope Lively, The New York Times Book Review
"A tender coming of age story so warmly delivered you almost forget how much of its plot involves smuggling, spycraft, and assassins…the novel becomes at once a mystery tale and an exploration into how much of our lives are out of our control, especially in wartime." —Mark Athitakis, The Minneapolis Star Tribune
"Michael Ondaatje's novel Warlight is a masterpiece of shifting memory… a book made lush through layers of experience instead of description." —Bethanne Patrick, The San Diego Union-Tribune
"[A] haunting, brilliant novel from Ondaatje…Mesmerizing from the first sentence, rife with poignant insights and satisfying subplots, this novel about secrets and loss may be Ondaatje's best work yet." —Publishers Weekly (starred review)
"A lyrical mystery that plays out in the shadow of World War II…Ondaatje's shrewd character study plays out in a smart, sophisticated drama, one worth the long wait for fans of wartime intrigue." —Kirkus Review (starred review)

Things That Modern Kids Will Never Recognize [VIDEO]
It's crazy to see what kids can do these days. Heck, it took until the mid '80s before most people understood how a remote control worked (and some still can't figure them out).
Kids now can do everything short of mowing the lawn with their phones. But chances are, they will never be able to say they know what these things are.
What did they leave out? What things do you remember from your childhood that kids these days will never recognize?

Limbaugh Ramps Up Discussion Of Violence As Election Draws Closer
Blog ››› ››› EMILY ARROWOOD
As Election Day draws closer, Rush Limbaugh is discussing the use of violence in a political context, both from and against Democrats.
The day before the first presidential debate, Limbaugh suggested that violence against Democrats might eventually be used to "handle them." The next day, as many pundits praised Mitt Romney's showing in the debate, Limbaugh predicted that violence from Obama supporters could be possible if Romney wins in November.
During his October 3 radio program, Limbaugh compared the threat America faces from terrorism to the threat posed by liberals. He said, "Folks, terrorism is the greatest threat. Because we can still defeat liberals without violence." But Limbaugh then added, "So, terrorism still, of course, represents the greater threat than the Democrat Party. We can handle them without violence. So far."
On Limbaugh's October 4 show, a caller said that polls showed a "huge lead for Obama, particularly in the battleground states," and asked Limbaugh, "[I]f and when Romney is elected, what do you think the reaction on the streets would be? Particularly in the large urban areas." Limbaugh replied that if Romney won despite Obama enjoying a wide lead in the polls, "you could have riots." He later said that "it could get bloody out there. But if the polls are tight in the last week, then I think there's less likelihood of any kind of, what would we say? Violent reaction."
Limbaugh added that in the event of such violence, "obviously, it'd be the pollsters. We'd have to blame the pollsters. They would be the ones responsible for this. I wonder how they would feel about that, to have that happen. We don't want to contemplate such things."

But keep in mind that some implementations encode meaning into the values in mpi.h, and as a result the values aren't even the same between multiple instances of the same implementation on different platforms! For example, MPICH2 encodes the size of basic datatypes in the value of the type. Saves us looking around in some table for these cases (which are the only ones that Patrick wants us to support :)!). So this is probably a larger problem than it seems. Rob --- Rob Ross, Mathematics and Computer Science Division, Argonne National Lab

Safeway Should Sell Canadian Operations Says BMO
Supermarket company Safeway has been rearranging its assets and BMO has a suggestion for it: Sell the Canadian operations.
The analysts go as far as to predict that if Safeway Canada was put on the block, there would be a bidding war for it, judging by some recent action by the likely bidders. BMO said the unit is worth around $5.5 billion, which is more than Safeway's current $4.4 billion market capitalization, but the analysts cautioned "have no insight as to whether a potential sale is or is not in the works."
Safeway shares jumped 7.3% to $20.21 in recent trading, the first time the stock has been above $20 since early May.
BMO's analysts point to recent moves by two other Canadian supermarket chains, Loblaw Cos. and Metro Inc., and say both appear to be raising funds to prepare for a Safeway bid.
Metro, which runs a network of more than 600 food stores and 250 drug stores in Quebec and Ontario, said on Tuesday that it was selling part of its stake in Alimentation Couche-Tard Inc. The sale will raise about $479 million, the company said.
Loblaw, meanwhile, announced late last year that it was launching an IPO for its real-estate holdings into a REIT. BMO said that plan could raise almost $700 million for Loblaw, Canada's largest food retailer.
Those moves, BMO said, "have further fueled the speculation that some Canadian food retailers are monetizing assets in an effort to increase financial flexibility in anticipation of a bidding war for Safeway Canada."

Portly HP fires up double-wide Itanium blade
Four-sockets 'O Fun
A long time ago, in a data centers far, far away, blade servers ran on laptop chips from Transmeta. These days companies such as HP pop double-wide, scorching hot Itanium-packed blades into their chassis.
HP today rolled out the four-socket BL870c blade server. This puppy complements the existing two-socket BL860c rolled out at this time last year.
Customers can plunk up to eight of the BL860c systems into HP'c c-Class c7000 chassis. But you'll only be able to squeeze four of the tubby BL870c systems into the same chassis, and two into HP's smaller C3000 chassis. So, the extra sockets come with a price.
The new blades run on Intel's dual-core 9100 Series Itanium processors - aka the Montvale parts. You can pick from 1.6GHz (24MB), 1.6GHz (18MB) and 1.4GHz (12MB) chips.
The BL870c systems also support up to 96GB of memory, four hard drives (SAS) and three I/O slots. You'll find all the specs here.
Along with the fresh hardware, HP is trumpeting the release of more "Solution Blocks," which get capitalized letters because they're very important.
The Solution Blocks help customers learn how to use their blade boxes with HP providing sample configurations and advice on installing systems. As you might expect, these configuration tips cover specific software.
For example, HP has tips for ERP, SOA and IBM WebSphere rollouts.
"The Oracle PeopleSoft Solution Block for PeopleSoft Enterprise 9.0 is one example," HP said. "With this Solution Block, businesses have the option of configurations for basic, medium and high availability. They include combinations of Integrity BL860c, BL870c and ProLiant BL460c server blades, and a range of storage options. Using a high-performance, highly reliable and modular infrastructure, HP helps Oracle customers build long-term IT strategies that can dynamically change as the business environment evolves."
Dynamic? Evolution? Modular? Highly? Strategies? The Lollipop Guild? It's all there.
HP, IBM, and Sun Microsystems will all sell far more x86 blades than RISC/Itanium gear, but that's not stopping the vendors from flashing their high-end wares.
So, go ahead and tub up with a Montvale blade. New Year's resolutions be damned. ®

Quoting David Clounch <email@example.com>:
> Merv,
> My personal position would be number 3. I think its the pragmatic
> position.
I'm sure you would agree, though, that trumping even the question of whether
it's pragmatic is: "Is it true?". Regarding your comments below, I think we're
in agreement, but couldn't those who dwell on #4 be "forgiven" for thinking the
Bible teaches it? We could appeal to Scripture to show how it is in God's
character to love and be merciful and that He wills that ALL would be saved.
But there are plenty of Scriptures (& from the mouth of Jesus, no less) to
remind us of a wrathful God as well. The #4 people tend to reciprocate our
suspicions by thinking that "wishy washy liberals" want to major on the love of
God and to pretend that His judgment and wrath don't exist. (...or so would run
the counter stereotype.) While I'm not sure yet how to completely reconcile
the two, (where justice and mercy kiss) I can certainly understand how somebody
would come away from casual Bible reading feeling that #4 was the option
looming from Scripture. One thing seems sure, though. God's love is not blind
(at least not at first. --it may precede a deliberate Divine 'forgetfulness',
somehow.) And even our best worldly love, for spouse, family, etc. mirrors the
Divine in being anything BUT blind.

Athletes are often associated with their uniform numbers, but the process of how those digits are attached to a uniform and player has changed over the years.
A little history lesson on the guidelines and how some players ended up with certain numbers:
The first major league team to put numbers on its uniforms was the Cleveland Indians in 1916, with numerals on the left sleeves. Because of complaints, those lasted only a few weeks. The St. Louis Cardinals tried the same in 1923, but were ridiculed. Embarrassed players pushed for the removal of the numbers, and Cardinals officials obliged.
In 1929, the Indians were...

Lake Clark National Park and Preserve is a composite of ecosystems representative of many diverse regions throughout Alaska. Within the park the mountains of the Alaska and the Aleutian Ranges join, creating the Chigmit Mountains, an awesome, jagged array of peaks resulting from centuries of uplifting, intrusion, earthquakes, vulcanism, and glacial action. Two active volcanoes, Iliamna and Redoubt, vent steam from their snow-capped peaks, rising more than 3,050 meters (10,000 ft.) The Chigmit's eastern flank descends rapidly to Cook Inlet. Rivers cascade dramatically to the sea through forests of Sitka and white spruce. The rocky cliffs in and adjacent to the park provide rookeries for puffins, cormorants, kittiwakes, and other seabirds. The western flank of the Chigmit Mountains descends through tundra-covered foothills to boreal forest. Spectacular lakes and wild rivers fill the valleys, flowing southwestward to Bristol Bay.
Summer is the time of life as caribou calve, buds turn to leaves, mosquitoes hatch, and salmon return to spawn. Fireweed, lupine, blueberry, and bearberry abound. In autumn the burgundy-hued tundra blankets the slopes around Turquoise Lake. Fish include five species of salmon, rainbow trout, Dolly Varden, lake trout, northern pike, and arctic grayling. Dall sheep, caribou and moose forage the area. Brown and black bear are present, as well as wolves, lynx, foxes and other mammals.

The luckiest man: 6 of Stan Lee's best cameos
Sky 1 are pulling out the big guns to impress us in 2016: kicking off the year with new gambling-based drama, Lucky Man.
Lucky Man stars James Nesbitt as the down-on-his-luck Detective Inspector of Central London's infamous Murder Squad, Harry Clayton. His wife has left him, taking their child with her, as a result of a gambling addiction that has also managed to land him in a huge stinking pile of debt. Just when things seem to be at their worst, Clayton is given a charm that seems to allow the wearer to control their own luck. A recipe for disaster with a gambling addict, as you might imagine.
If all of this doesn't sound thrilling enough for you, here's why we're excited… Lucky Man is the first UK drama to be written by legendary comic book mogul, Stan Lee.
The 93-year-old (!!) stalwart co-created countless iconic characters including Spider-Man, Iron Man and Thor. Lee said of the project:
"Luck has always been a fascinating subject to me, and I am excited to finally share that fascination with audiences around the world. With all the creative projects I have worked on, I sure am a lucky man myself and I am excited to be working with Sky 1 and Carnival Films on this latest project."
When asked what his own lucky charm was, the old romantic crooned:
"My wife."
In celebration of Lee's UK debut, we decided to look at 6 of his best cameos. The man is infamous for his blink-and-you'll-miss-it appearances in essentially all of the films he's ever produced, so here's hoping we'll see him crop up next to Jimmy Nesbitt when Lucky Man hits screens tomorrow.
1. Stan Lar-ee: you'd be forgiven for missing Stan's appearance in Iron Man 2 owing to his uncanny similarity to Larry King once you get him in suspenders.
N.B. The first Iron Man also demonstrates his likeness to Hugh Hefner when flanked by two blondes. The man's a chameleon!
2. Stan f-lee: spotted in the first Spider-Man movie, running for his life from a collapsing building.
3. Stan three: cropping up again in the third Spider-Man film, this time Stan gets promoted to a speaking role.
4. Stan & Lou-ee: A double whammy cameo of Stan alongside original Hulk actor Louis Ferrigno.
5. Stan Wil-Lee: 2005's Fantastic Four saw Lee elevated to a fully-blown character, delivering mail to Reed Richards as "Willie Lumpkin".
6. Stan careless-lee: testing out his comedy chops in Captain America: The Winter Soldier and succeeding.
Check out the trailer for Lucky Man here.
Lucky Man airs tomorrow on Sky 1 at 9pm.

Billy Talent – Ian D'Sa
"…So what I am trying to say is that this here is the real shit, this is the real deal." Ben Kowalewicz is soaked to the skin and grinning from ear to ear. Looking out over the bowels of Camden's Underworld surveying a devotional sea of faces rammed to the venues rafters that has spent the last hour screaming back every syllable of the bands back catalogue and even, via the onslaught of internet fan frenzy, songs from their latest record, Billy Talent III, which is still over a month from release.

There are shelves full of wonderful packaging, tills and scales lovely jars of jam and bottles with labels, dairy, veggies, meat and fish.
I chose fish.
I am not sure what possessed me! I thought it would be cute I suppose, and at one point I did think it was going to work. But then I had a closer look and all I could see was rockets, or lava lamps! I tried embroidering the eyes and some gills hoping it would help.
But there is nothing that will disguise the true lava lamp nature of these fish. Lets just say they're whimsical ;)

I am happy to feature my 2nd guest blogger of the week, Lori Brust, local au pair child care consultant. This post is a little bit longer than my usual posts, but provides a wonderful overview of hosting an au pair as an affordable childcare option.
" With more dual-working and single parent families than ever before, parents are finding it difficult to balance life, family and work. For busy families, an important part of this juggling act is finding the right childcare for their children. Families need a trustworthy caregiver that can offer the flexibility a busy family requires. There is one flexible and affordable option available to parents that is gaining popularity nationwide—hosting a live-in au pair.
As a local childcare consultant, I have the chance to meet many of the au pairs who join our program. These au pairs are adventurous, educated, young people from abroad who choose to leave their life at home for one year to share their love for children with an American host family. Au pairs are excited to become part of an American family and experience American culture by living in our communities, volunteering and taking classes at local colleges.
Although the au pair program has been around for more than 24 years, many families are unaware that hosting an au pair is a childcare option available to them. The U.S. Department of State regulates all au pair programs in the United States, offering parents the peace of mind that their children are in trusted, qualified care. Au pairs live and study in the United States for one year on a J-l cultural exchange visa, in exchange for providing 45 hours of childcare per week. Au pairs are between the ages of 18 and 26 years old and speak proficient English. The au pairs I meet bring great enthusiasm into the home and are excited to teach their host children about a new language, culture and music. Host families are able to take advantage of this unique form of childcare and cultural exchange, building relationships with their au pair that last a lifetime.
During their stay in the U.S., au pairs provide live-in childcare and help their host families more easily balance their busy lifestyle. A host family can set their au pair's working hours according to their hectic schedule, often having the au pair drive the children to and from school or to appointments, as well as supervise the older children during after-school hours and vacation breaks. And a great help to the family, au pairs also assist with light household responsibilities, such as preparing meals, the children's laundry and helping the children keep their rooms and play areas neat.
For an active family with children, hosting an international au pair at the average cost of $360 per week is one of the most affordable childcare options available. And yet, hosting an au pair is also one of the most rewarding childcare options for families—au pairs create a very caring environment for children and enrich children's playtimes with international games, stories and activities, while also helping families' better balance their daily lives and schedules. Hosting an au pair not only provides the flexible and affordable childcare families need, it also creates an international bond that will last a lifetime."
If you are interested in finding out more about hosting an au pair as a childcare option, please reach out to Lori Brust directly and let her know you read her post on the Parenting Life Lessons blog. Lori has a ton of experience and has been a local childcare consultant for over 17 years and can help parents with this wonderful childcare option anywhere in the US.
For more information, call Lori Brust at 516-797-8373 or go to her website at www.lbrust.aupairnews.com.

Finding cards for Valentine's Day is always a tough one, especially with my busy schedule it's hard to get out to actually purchase cards. I don't usually go for the lovey-dovey sappy sentiment so I like having the option to personalise cards and choose what I want it to say.
ChuckleMonster is a great option for those who want to personalise cards with their loved one's name or by uploading an image to create an extra special Valentine's photo card.
I was able to choose cards for each my husband and my son to suit both of their personalities and order them in less than 5 minutes, allowing me to get on with my busy day. What's even better, all Valentine's cards get free shipping! If you are in need of cards for any occasion, Chuckle Monster is a way to go.
Check out ChuckleMonster's Valentine's competition on Facebook where one lucky winner will receive a Hotel Chocolat hamper with a bottle of Prosecco and a personalized Valentine's Day card, or follow them on Twitter: @Chuckle_Monster.
** This is a review for ChuckleMonster, who provided me with free cards to review for Valentine's Day. All opinions are my own**

Climate Change - Oceans Are Losing Oxygen
Marlin can hunt in water a half mile down, and sailfish often dive deep too.
In more and more places around the world, ocean predators are sticking near the surface.
Warming temperatures are sucking oxygen out of waters even far out at sea, making enormous stretches of deep ocean hostile to marine life.
New research shows that this problem is getting worse.
Vast stretches of the ocean interior suddenly lost oxygen during the transition out of the last glacial stage, between 17,000 and 10,000 years ago.
This event was the most recent example of large-scale global warming.
There are other examples in the geological record, including the Zechstein Sea.

An unintended photobomb may have led to the brutal beating of 23-year-old Californian woman outside of a nightclub in Santa Ana.
Annie Hung "Kim" Pham was taken off life support and her organs were donated on Tuesday.
The LA Times reported a source said Pham had wandered in front of a group of partygoers taking a photo. A verbal fight occurred, which then erupted into a brawl. Investigators say Pham was kicked and punched until she lost consciousness.
She was declared brain dead while at an area hospital.
An unidentified witness told Los Angeles' KCAL-TV people watched as Pham was beaten, capturing the carnage with their cell phones.
One suspect has since been identified and arrested: Vanesa Zavala, 25. She has been charged with murder in connection to the fatal beating and has pleaded not guilty. Her defense attorney vehemently denies Zavala, a mother of a five-year-old son, had any part in Pham's death and says she was also injured in the brawl.
"It's tragic that someone died, no question about that, but my client didn't kill her, and facts will bear that out," attorney Ken Reed said.
Police have offered a $10,000 reward for anyone who can help identify and apprehend four other suspects, two men and two women between the ages of 20 and 25.
Zavala remains in custody on $1 million bond. Her next court date is set for Jan. 30.

Is HIV Viral Undetectability Important?
January 9, 2014
I have been on anti-HIV meds since 1994. I have had HIV definitely for thirty years and probably more. In that time I have seen people sickened and killed by the meds. I have developed long-term complications as a direct result of the meds. More importantly recent studies of which I was a subject have shown that HIV doesn't sicken people by infecting CD4 cells as much as the virus' attempt to infect sleeper cells, which releases chemicals that cause cells to self-destruct. This self-destruction leads to complications such as early-onset dementia, heart disease, cancer and debilitating arthritis. The HIV meds do little to control the reservoirs of HIV that hide out in the sleeper cells located throughout the body. For these reasons, I personally do not believe the current mania for nuking HIV into so-called undetectability is either wise or effective.
Fighting the "Holiday Blues"
December 11, 2013
My mother died on Christmas Eve eight years ago. My partner and I had been in the south of France for a month so that I could work on the language requirement for my master's degree from the University of Edinburgh. After the end of that month, we took the train to Paris to spend Christmas and New Year's. I had not checked my e-mail for a month so I walked down to an internet café to catch up. As I read my e-mails, I was horrified to read a series of e-mails that said my mother was in the hospital, that she was getting worse, and then that she had died. I rushed back to the hotel to call my sister on her mobile to find out the funeral plans for my mom. My sister said the funeral was the next day in Orlando, Florida. I told her it was not possible for me to get from Paris to Orlando in time for the funeral and asked her to delay the funeral for a few days. My sister said a delay was impossible as the plans were too far advanced and calls had been made for the family to attend. I asked my sis to give my regrets to the family and we hung up. Later that same day, my partner and I visited Chartres Cathedral where I lit a candle for my mom and said a Rosary for the repose of her soul. My sister and my family have never forgiven me for not attending my mom's funeral and we have not spoken since.
A Year of Learning and Self Awareness
July 10, 2013
I havent written in awhile so let me catch you up. Over the last year I have worked with a therapist on issues relating to my physically abusive mother and my bipolar disorder; I had my first frightening episode of disassociation caused by my worsening dementia; and my garden won an award.
My Horrific Seven Months
June 13, 2012
I haven't written for quite a while. My excuse is that I have been careening from one health issue to another and haven't had the strength to write. I have learned quite a lot from these illnesses. I am still struggling to reckon the past seven months.

As I held my pruner in one hand and the guide book for pruning a bonsai in the other I read that a bonsai is pruned to promote openness. The guide book continued with the helpful hint that the trunk and branches of the bonsai are pruned so that they peek through the foliage. The bonsai I was about to prune is a western cedar whose growth was naturally stunted by a liquid amber tree. It is about four feet high and five feet across and was at one time an elegant addition to my back garden. Now, it looked like a badly pruned hedge.
Where Was I When HIV First Reared Its Ugly Head?
June 3, 2011
On June 5, 1981, when the CDC report on mysterious cases of young gay men dying of Pneumocystis carinii pneumonia in Los Angeles came out I was a very busy student in my senior year of college. I had begun college in 1977 with the intention of being an English major; however, I found out soon I was rubbish at writing literary critiques. A woman I met at lunch one day told me that Actuarial Science graduates made loads of money so I switched my major to mathematics. I finished courses sufficient to take the first two Actuarial Science tests; but in May 1981 I realized the Veteran's Administration War Orphans benefits I was receiving due to my dad's 100% disability suffered in Viet Nam were due to run out before I could complete the coursework necessary to take the next eight Actuarial Science exams. I needed to have a job by March 1982 when my VA benefits ran out, so I switched my major to Business with a concentration in Accounting. To graduate, I needed to take four courses per quarter in the coming summer, fall and winter quarters. I was consequently swamped with course work that June.
Took My Chance
March 10, 2011
I have just returned from a wonderful trip to Egypt. Fortunately, I returned home a few days before the troubles started. I am not surprised the Egyptian people are dissatisfied with their lot and are in a state of rebellion. Poverty is everywhere and around all the monuments are slums. At the pyramids the slums are within a hundred yards and the Sphinx looks upon some of the worst.
Sometimes You Just Have to Take a Chance
January 10, 2011
In a few days I'm off to Egypt for three weeks on a trip I've dreamt of all my life. The trip is disabled friendly I am told. My partner's doctors don't believe he's up to a long flight so I am going by myself. All of my doctors have told me that my neurological issues may flare up on the arduous trip I am undertaking. But, you just have to tuck your chin in sometimes and take a chance.
Paying Attention
December 7, 2010
My partner and I live just north of Los Angeles in the slightly inclined stretch of land that becomes the foothills and then the startling uprightness of the San Gabriel Mountains. In winter, the mountains are often dusted with snow. After a snow, when the sun peeks between the horizon and the clouds, the mountains are tinted yellow, orange and pink. In the summer, the setting sun tints the mountains violet.
September 8, 2010
Beth was the most remarkable person I have ever met. I first heard of her in spring 1991 in an article in the Sunday section of the Marin Independent. At the time, I was living with my partner, Jim, in an apartment in Tiburon, California, on the edge of Richardson Bay with a view from the Bay Bridge to the Golden Gate Bridge. In the evening we could sit on our deck and admire the view of San Francisco while waves lapped against the beach beneath our feet. Life was good for Jim and me. We had satisfying work and a wonderful group of friends. Yet with all this, I remained angry that I had been infected with HIV.

River North Dance Chicago
River North Dance Chicago will present two world premieres by new choreographers in its fall program. Adam Barruch, who received positive buzz at the 2011 Chicago Dancing Festival with his solo piece "The Worst Pies in London," has created "I Close My Eyes Until the End" for RNDC, a dance for 11, with the message self-explanatory. And from Nejla Yatkin, 2008 Princess Grace Choreography Fellow, is the solo piece "Renatus (rebirth)," performed by Jessica Wolfrum. Why go: RNDC is celebrating artistic director Frank Chaves performing his "Forbidden Boundaries" and "The Good Goodbyes." Reconsider: If you wanted to see work by Alvin Ailey Dance Theater artistic director Robert Battle, you'd go see an Alvin Ailey show (River North Dance is performing Battle's "Three" for this program). 8 p.m. Friday and Saturday at Harris Theater for Music and Dance, 205 E. Randolph St.; $30-$75; 312-334-7777, harristheaterchicago.org
