Title: Ostermontag
Also known as:
Das Komabrutale Snuff-Massaker (Alternative DVD title)
I Spit on Your Fucking Grave Bitch (Alternative DVD title)
Snuff Holocaust (Alternative DVD title)
Year: 1991
Genre: Independent / Exploitation
Language: German
Runtime: 63 min
Director: Heiko Fipper
Writer: N/A
IMDb: N/A
When Heiko is rejected by the girl he loves, his stepsister, he accidently attacks her twin sister instead and gets thrown into jail. When he comes out again he sets out to get his revenge.
Our thoughts:
Germans, what are they? Are they mere humans like us, or are they from a planet of cheese and crap? Are they intelligent like us, or more like turkeys (the animal, I'm not racist!)? I don't think I will ever know. They always seem to be on some sort of drug, they always get loud and they don't know when to stop. Of course I am not talking about all Germans, just the filmmakers. What was the last German movie you saw? I'm sure the majority of you will answer with the title of a splatter movie because for some reason that's what they do. "Ostermontag" is by the director Heiko Fipper who also got a nice DVD release from Unearthed Films with his "Das Komabrutale Duell", a movie I own but haven't seen.
Who the fuck cares about the story here? It's a revenge of some sort. I wouldn't know if I hadn't read up on it online since I watched the movie without subtitles. But it doesn't matter! This movie is bullshit and crap, all at the same time! What it offers is poorly made torture scenes, like fucking a woman with a knife or cutting off titties. This sounds like a good time, but I will assure you that it's so fucking poor that I wondered why I didn't fuck my eyes with a knife instead.
A movie like this needs good effects and some cringe-worthy moments to be worth anything, but this is so poorly made that it's just silly through-and-through. It's a couple of silly German blokes who had an idea for a torture film then didn't understand that their head-stomping scene would look terrible when it was made with a balloon. Not a single good effect in this film, although there is a scene at the end that I think was on the right track. If only it didn't feel like they threw in all ideas they had: cutting a woman's back, fucking her with a knife, shooting up her vagina so the spine splits open, then fucking the wound and cumming through the spine-crack. Yeah, this could've been a realistic scene had it not gone into to moronville and also been in a different movie - a serious movie. This scene seemed like it was filmed later on to make the film more appealing, and I wouldn't be surprised if that was the case.
I don't understand how this movie ever managed to get out of their own personal collection and onto an actual DVD release. It amazes me what shitfests get released nowadays. Yet here I am with a copy of my own, because it had the incredible stupid title "I Spit on Your Fucking Grave Bitch!". But moreso because it was a hardbox and that's what I wanted at that moment. If you buy this movie it better be to add something obscure into your collection, not because you think this will be good. Out of all the shitty German films I have seen, this ranks as the most amateurish, boring and stupid. That should speak volumes for this poop. Ignore all the warnings about extreme content, you can't be offended when something is so poorly made. Buuuut, at the same time it's hard to hate something so ridiculously talentless that also comes in a hardbox.
Gore: 2.5/5
Nudity: 0.5/5
Story: 1/5
Effects: 0.5/5
Comedy: 1/5

Rebuker's Rod
{{#set:Summary=Allows a necromancer to rebuke undead as a cleric, and doubles the number of undead that can be animated per casting of animate dead.}}
When evil necromancers fight each other, they discover that commanding enemy undead proves to be more of a challenge than they ever could have imagined. Given the maximum amount of undead a necromancer can control, it is a good idea to pick and choose which ones one wants. So as not to leave the rest of an attacking force breach his defenses, a necromancer uses this rod to rebuke those he cannot command.
The rebuker's rod enables a necromancer to rebuke undead as though he were a neutral cleric of equivalent level. The owner may use this power a number of times per day equal to his Charisma bonus. If the wielder is a cleric or has levels in any other class that grants the ability to turn/rebuke undead, the wielder adds his necromancer level to his effective turn/rebuke undead level but does not gain additional turn/rebuke attempts per day. Finally, the rod doubles the number of undead that the wielder can animate with a single casting of the animate dead spell, though the caster is still limited to controlling 2 HD per caster level at any one time.
Strong necromancy; CL 13th; Craft Rod, animate dead, control undead; Price Cost::75,000 gp.

One man was killed and another was wounded Thursday afternoon during a shooting in the parking lot at Spanish Villa Condominiums on Wright Parkway.
FORT WALTON BEACH � One man was killed and another was wounded Thursday afternoon during a shooting in the parking lot at Spanish Villa Condominiums on Wright Parkway.
The men drove from the condo complex to Sullivan Street near West Audrey Drive, where their blue Saturn sedan stopped on the side of the road.
PHOTOS: View photos from the scene where the victims were found >>
VIDEO: View a video of the crime scenes >>
VIDEO: Reader-submitted video of the chopper landing >>
Fort Walton Beach police were called to the scene about 3:15 p.m. The medical examiner�s office and the Florida Department of Law Enforcement joined them later.
The investigation was continuing Thursday night. The victims� identities were not announced and Police Chief Ted Litschauer said investigators were developing suspects.
Chrisken Stone said she was about to turn left onto Sullivan from East Audrey Drive when she watched the Saturn drive by. The windows on the left side had been shot out and the driver was bleeding, she said.
She drove over to the car with her children in the back of her vehicle. She rolled down her window and asked the driver if he needed help.
�It was just instinct,� Stone said.
The driver asked her to call 911.
It was only when she approached the Saturn that she realized there was a passenger in the car. The passenger was already dead, Stone said.
The driver had been shot through the abdomen, Stone said. He also had been shot in the arm and the bullet was still in the wound.
She grabbed a white towel from her vehicle. He helped her apply pressure to the abdomen wound as she covered his arm.
�He wouldn�t have lived if I wasn�t there,� Stone said matter-of-factly. �There were massive amounts of blood.�
She said she kept him awake as they waited for emergency crews. He told her that he had been giving someone a ride and would never do that again.
The driver later told police he was 20 years old and the passenger was 18 years old, Stone said.
Stone quickly filled out a police report. As rescuers tended to the driver, she said a police officer walked to her car and asked her children if they knew what their mother had done.
�Yeah. She just saved a life,� Stone said her daughter replied.
The wounded driver was airlifted from the parking lot of Liza Jackson Preparatory School to a Pensacola hospital, according to Fort Walton Beach firefighters. His condition was unknown.
Residents gathered near the car on Sullivan Street and watched as investigation unfold.
The neighborhood is relatively quiet, with the exception of an occasional car accident or bear sighting, said Patrice Brown, who lives on Sullivan.
�It�s a little close to home,� Brown said. �You always hear about stuff and I always think about those people who say it�s a little close to home.
�I guess it�s another feeling when it�s close to your home. Makes you a little shaky.�

Key learning points from NetSuite Q4 2012 Results – Earnings Call
Few key points with respect to the Software as a Service dynamics extracted from the transcript of NetSuite Q4 2012 Results – Earnings Call
- The higher end of the market seems ready for more complex, scalable, global OnDemand software solutions.
- The software industry is leading the adoption of SaaS solutions and eCommerce to follow
- Suite of products offering increase ASP(Average Selling Price) – increasing willingness to pay because a more complete solution reduces cost and increase productivity
- Suite of products offering enables going up the market, replacing disparate system (in one case as much as 14)
- Should SAP be worried?! Probably others should too.
- Going up the market increases the length of the sale cycle (is that a concern?). This is interesting point. The price(paid monthly) should theoretically reduce the risk, however it is not the only factor in the buying decision(more people are involved in the buying process on the high-end of the market).
- Going up the market increases demand for professional service
- The quality and size of the NetSuite partners (MSP, VAR) is growing. This enable both going up the market and sales leverage.
- There is strong demand for sales rep also in a SaaS model, whether selling to the channel or directly to the customer.
There were more gems in this transcript.
10 core startup mentality principles
It does not matter if you work in a company of 5 people or on a team of 10 in a 400k employees corporate, start-up mentality could be created anywhere, and this culture is what differentiate one team from another. In addition to the hard skills I wrote about in How to become an all-round software developer, adopting the right culture is crucial for getting valuable results(or any results).
Here are the 10 core principles of a startup culture wherever exists.
- A Sense of Urgency – the team needs to create value and to deliver it to the market quickly enough in order to stay ahead of the competition
- Risk Aversion– doing something that has never been done before. Something big and meaningful! Not playing it safe. Willingness to try new things.
- Teamwork – dropping everything else and getting up to help a teammate asking for help – including over the weekend.
- Willing to take Extreme measures – Over night delivery – we call it white night:)
- Learning – this is the fun part. In other words, assembling the parachute on the way diving!
- Optimism – it may look and smell like a sausage, but will make it work!
- Volunteering – pull vs. push system.
- Dictatorship of the Mind – The best idea wins regardless who came up with it. The team will rally around the best idea!
- Commitment to the product, the team, the company- Time estimates are always wrong and underestimate the effort. The last reaction to slipping is to move the date and the first one is to stick to one's commitment.
- Generosity and Serving – reusability, building frameworks, information, tools, and tricks.
- Yea, right- overachieving!!
These principles should be reminded every time a new person join the teams. If there is a mismatch between the team and the new teammate, there is a risk of the entire team loosing the startup mentality. This is the time to bring these principles back to the team's awareness. This is when the expectation that any team member must have only positive influence on the rest of team should be communicated and set as a goal.
Did I forget a principle?
How to map your SaaS sales process
A sales process does not have a single path. It is not a simple, one time, sequence of events. A sales process from lead to close may go zig zag, back and forth, and in circles. Also, the customer/partner may interact with multiple touch points like, pre sale, tech support, and billing. It is not enough to just develop a single dimension sales funnel with steps going one after another from the wide top opening of the sales funnel to the narrow bottom end. In order to identified who is doing what, and when, where leads may fall between the cracks, and where there are opportunities to up-sale, I recommend mapping the sales process in the following way.
Step 1: Leads generation – the list of marketing activities that will generate leads/contact
Step 2: Referrals – identify where are they coming from
Step 3: Adding to the leads bank – some filtering/de-duping can happen here. The number of active leads is the denominator for the conversion and close rate calculation. This is where Sales and Marketing needs to work together and agree about what counts as a lead. The information needs to be time sliced – usually on a quarterly basis. Some leads that did not progress to the next step in the last quarter, despite multiple follow-ups, can go back to this pool for the next quarter. Others may be stored for a longer term follow-up.
Step 4: The volume of leads to follow-up depends on the amount of leads available and the inside sales capacity. So, here too, some leads need to slip to the next time slice. It is a good practice to keep an eye on the % follow-up = # of leads contacted # of leads available, to see that sale reps keep prospecting. The next step after following up with a lead, is getting the prospect to perform certain activity(e.g. registering to the web-site, downloading a white paper). This step split the process in two: 1. The lead is now qualified, showed interest and maybe other resources from the company to follow-up with her. 2. The lead did not react to the offer and it should be parked in the "to follow' up pool of leads.
Step 5: Close – the prospect is on-board and productive. Here it is good to calculate the close rate (could be done from the total # of leads or just from the leads that the sales reps contacted). Here again, the prospect can go to the "to follow' up pool of leads if the deal was not closed. Also, another base practice, and this is crucial for SaaS company, is calculating the renewal rate to monitor retention. Resigning customers should be added to the "to follow' up pool set with high priority, and should be called as soon as possible. On-boarding is a crucial step so monitor the retention rate relative to new customer in addition to the overall customers base renewal rate.
Step 6: Closing up-sale opportunities. This is where other customer touch points possibly contribute to higher close rate. Calculating the close rate here could be tricky. It is not simply calculated based on the # of leads from step 3, but also taking in consideration the entire customer base. One of the key question that SaaS companies struggle with is how to identify opportunities for up-sale. This is where segmentation becomes crucial, and foresight thinking about what data to collect about the customers is the key.
One more thing to consider, referrals to generic leads are like jet fuel to the gas you fuel your car with. There is no question whether to invest in referral program, but it is hard to know how much. Here too, the data you collect about your referrals can help you to come up with the right answer.
In summary, the sales process looks more like a ping ball machine than a sequence of inputs and exits criteria. If your sales process is even more complicated than my example above then it is even more critical for you to spend the time mapping it.
Mapping the sales process can help with:
- Identifying where leads should be followed-up, and by whom in the organization
- Where leads should go back to the short term or longer term pools
- Where and what data should be collected along the way
- To identify opportunities for up-selling
This exercise can go a long way increasing your you revenue as a result of an increase in your close rate.
Working with Sales Funnel in B2B SaaS company – Part I
Some says that Sales is more art than science, I don't disagree, but I will argue that sales management is mostly science. In SaaS company revenue projection could be modeled with numbers that will be fine tuned over time. For software sold as a service on a monthly basis, sales goals could be highly predictable and well monitored. With a simple model On Demand software companies can clearly connect Marketing and Sales efforts with respect to lead generation, referrals, conversion, revenue and profit.
Using the Sales Funnel to forecast revenue
- Value of closed sale – closed lead (annually)
- # of leads enter the top of the funnel
- Close rate
- Revenue per sales rep
- You now have a model that can simulate alternative revenue projections based on different close rates, lead values, MSP(Management Service Provider) sizes, and the number of productive sales reps.
- You can make it more complicated by factoring the close rate for each sales rep and the retention rate.
Using the Sales Funnel to plan and monitor the Sales process.
How many leads do we need to generate $X revenue?
Are we on track?
- Revenue forecast
- Sales funnel
- The number of leads that we need to make the revenue target
- This model help to answer if the pipeline will deliver on the revue target
- It goes back to marketing (inbound and outbound) volume of activities for lead generations(webinars, conference sponsorship, SEM) as well as referrals rate
Next: Using the sales funnel to calculate sales quota, compensation and for forecasting profit
Aligning your SaaS Product Design, Marketing and Sales Strategies
When you think about your Software as a Service company sales, and marketing strategy you'll need to consider the product complexity, who is your target customer segment, and what other players will be involved in the sale process(not full 4Ps analysis here). In each of the cases below different levels of effort and cost to market and sale your product(s) is needed. Partner recruiting is selling, which means, leads generation, sales cycle, value proposition, and some form of an inside sales team. Working with the channels requires investments, competing on VAR attention is selling, and the competition is growing with every new SaaS solution developed. Growing SaaS companies like HubSpot, Marketo, ConstantContact and more as well as giants such as Oracle have been already investing in capturing these channels. The alternative of going directly to the customers is not financially viable in the case of a small start-up company selling to the small and medium business(SMB). The complexity of the product will determine how long is the sale cycle, the onboarding process, and the need for Management Service Provider(MSP) participation. Considering whether the product should become a platform requires considering the implications on your go to market strategy like setting and governing the quality of the add-ons(certification) and pricing.
Here are some combinations to look at.
|Vendor Type
|Billable Customer
|IT Reasonability
|Likely Exit Strategy
|Product Strategy
|Sales & Marketing Strategy
|SMB owner
|Building a cash cow – why sell?
|Simple, limited functionality, self served
|Online, inbound marketing
|Large Enterprises
|Corporate IT Department
|M&A (sell to one of the big players: SAP, Oracle, IBM, Microsoft)
|Perfecting one use case, or developing strong protected IP – proprietary algorithm
|Direct sales. POC/paid pilot, partnering with other solutions.
B2B marketing: thought leadership, trade show.
|Young growing company
|SMB(<;2000 employees)
|Going up the market, or M&A through Vertical integration
|Building Platform as Service (PaaS), OEM(embed other products)
Requires customization and integration with add-on
|Partner recruitment. Referral program.
Working with partner on developing strong value proposition and go to market strategies.
Sponsored conferences, Webinars.
|Become mission critical
|Ad above and recruit strategic partners
|Large Enterprise developing SaaS
|Medium complexity. Open API, web services, enabling value added services
|Partner programs. Account executive to harvest strategic partners
|Large Enterprises
|Corporate IT Department
|Hybrid between on premise and hosted
|Direct sales, rebranding
I'm sure that there are other combinations of vendor and customer types, product, sales and marketing strategies. However, some combinations could lead to successful outcome while other be disastrous!
The process for forming a strategy
The Steps
- Encountering a Challenge
- Exploring Options: existing validated solutions as well as unthinkable, and unimaginable ones
- Knowing one's core competencies or coming up with new approaches to solve a problem – with quality or by lowering the cost by an order of magnitude
- Mapping between those core competencies and the solution to the challenge we started with
- Validate – does it actually addresses the challenge effectively and differently? Is it a sustainable competitive advantage?
- Constructing every activity to be aligned with the core competencies in order to support the chosen solution
That is strategy!
Michael Porter in his What is Strategy? article wrote that "..the essence of strategy is in the activities – choosing to perform activities differently or to perform different activities than rival".
I'm not about to challenge prof Porter here. His insightful article helps to evaluate formed strategies and to identified competitive advantages, but I claim that it is not enough to start the process of forming a strategy.
The second step in the process above is the most crucial step in forming a strategy. Becoming aware of options is the first condition to making strategic choices, so spending the time learning about options is where most people failed.
The unthinkable – Hannibal crossing the alps with elephants. Lawrence of Arabia attacking Aqaba from the desert side.
Optimizing one level up and empowerment – Walmart relationship with its vendors an no regional control. Dell and virtual vertical integration.
A brand is more than its product – a story – Ducati, Coke, MasterCard and many more.
To summarize, when you think about your strategy the key steps are to first list all the immediate options and then to spend time exploring other dimensions of the problem to come up with more opportunities to solve it differently.
Why you should use FourSquare
I'm a check-in addict. I also like those fancy badges that I occasionally earn on FourSquare. I think that I'm also a mayor of a place or two. However, since I'm not using American Express credit card I did not gain any tangible value using the product. That changed yesterday when for the first time I got this check-in special that saved me $9, cool! FourSquare, you did it!

"There is no until. Stay. Just stay.I'm asking you not to go."
Allie is truly a remarkable author. Every time she tells me she has something new for me to read, I squeal like a little school girl. Each sentence is highly anticipated magic. Her last book Burning Down the House BLEW me away. But this, perfection. At the start we get a bit of mystery and suspense and you can already tell Allie will have you on the edge of your seat. Then we flash to the present time and Melanie is staying at her friend Leah's place to get away for a while and finish her book. Little did she know, a person from her past would come back into her life and turn her whole world upside down. And the last thing she ever expected was to start caring for the man who tormented her for years. The Firefly Effect was exhilarating, refreshing and a pure enjoyment to read. Some of my most favorite scenes from a book, ever. Enjoyed every moment and I think everyone will love it as much as I did :-)

And you would be doing exactly what he wants. He has served notice -- the refs will now be on the lookout for any kind of retaliation, and if the Canadian players fall for that they will be spending time/energy looking to "knock him into next week" instead of just looking to knock the whole team out of the medal round.
That's fine, I would plan on beating them anyway, but if I saw him motoring around, I'd knock him down for sure.

Periodically I'll start obsessing over a particular style of clothing or accessory and over the last couple of months that obsession had been brocade 60s party dresses. I even told my friend Helen that I would attend her New Years Eve do only on the proviso that she allow me to get dressed up in one, although I didn't yet own one!
Lucky for me on the day before New Years Eve I popped into Grandma Takes a Trip and spotted this lovely repro 1960s shift from their Altered State label, made from a gorgeous vintage fabric threaded with gold. Best of all their seamstress who works on site was able to alter it for me so that it fit to a tee. I was pleased because, despite my obsession, my pear shaped figure has prevented me owning many shift dresses in the past.
This is my friend Liana and I on our way out to Helen's party (her boyfriend proposed to her at midnight and she said yes!) and below you can check out the back of the dress, with sexy cut out detail and cute faux pearl buttons.
I used to love writing. It was my default activity (that, and reading); everything else something I endured in order to get to the writing. I would hide my...

The Wrath of Valentine's Day
By Sundari Prasad
"Despair is so sensuous, so delicious, it will wear you out"
-LeMarc, from Stained with Crimson by Tanith Lee
Thank heavens that the day has passed. Valentine's Day- the wretched effigy of a holiday for lovers everywhere. The color of despair thickens like night across a windswept sea- a thick syrup of black that envelops and swallows all that it encompasses. Rich, and yet very sweet. Cupid, pendulous, heavy wings and poisoned dart, is dead. Until next year. His wings are now clipped but what about those dead, eyeless former lovers that he dragged in his wake, chained to a love that was no more? Bound with chains to a shadow of a memory. Did they despair? Perhaps, Perhaps not.
Despair leaves it mark of passion: a sensuous X upon those it has claimed. They remain that way—drunk with the wine of indifference, secluded hearts in a viney overgrowth that covers and grows about them like an ivy, a vivid green encasement of branches and toughened enough to become a hide, a bark that shields and protects, yet traps and wastes away the mortal beneath the artificial skin.
Everywhere, lovers are packing up their cupids and hearts and drying their flowers, making momentos of the heady kisses and the loving memories. They all become relics in the book of time. Another broke and effortless gratitude brought on by a season that does not care for those that have not, and care not, for it.
Instead, they are forced to revel in their nothingness. The sheer absence of being with instead, they live without, and misspent time hangs a burdensome load on their shoulders. But, some feign not to take it, and revel and party and be gay in the face of their bane. And some do not, and lie idle while wiling away their time with metered lashed of past pains and pangs of grief overloaded with emotion. Those few women who had not-some cried and died a little beneath their sheltered cloaks. And those few women that care not-reveled with their friends and made the most of the day. And those women that had-well, they did otherwise.
But what about the men? Do they also shed an internal tear (as few men want own tearshed) for what they have not or care not to have? Perhaps. Perhaps not. Who shall know?
For us women, the more feminine of the beast called man, sometimes bred to become over-sensitive and over-caring, sometimes bred to be the weaker by means of brainwashing such as dolls and pink dresses (did you not think, that from the start, that was what they were doing unbeknownstly?) we have to deal with it. Yet, I think not. The whole concept is very sad, and very, very sexist.
Cupid, blind-deaf-and dumb-sails back to the tombs of time, and lies down upon his funeral bed of flowers, astrewn with broken hearts and wet with tears both shed and unshed. He does not possess a heart, for he cannot feel, and his skin--the only perception that he does possess-has grown too tough to feel anymore, he just simply IS. In fact, he has become rather mechanical.
The whole world has actually become hardened to feeling-- trapped within the confines of a time that does not remember its past, only strives for the future. The world, too, has become a mechanism bent on advancement of itself and cares not for its people anymore. And we, until recently, have stopped caring about it. The world only cares for what you can do to advance it, not for what you can do. There are no more knights. There are no more spells of sleep…enchantress woven. No more castles shimmering above the clouds…No more dreams. Dreams are more than nothing, yet nothing more. Drugged with the headiness of being, we all are forced to live within the confines of today. Yesterday does not matter anymore.
And that is really sad.

When I am wrong -- and, yes, it occasionally happens -- I like to figure out why in hopes of not being wrong again. So, let's do that.
The July piece was written after Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) and Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.) brokered a deal that allowed a handful of President Obama's nominees -- including for the National Labor Relations Board -- to get votes. My argument was three-fold: (1) in order for the nuclear option to be used, the old bulls of the Senate would have to trigger it. Since the old bulls -- like Reid -- were the biggest traditionalists, I presumed it wouldn't happen; (2) Reid had spent time in the Senate minority and knew that a Senate in which judges and executive branch nominees could be approved by a simple majority vote would badly disenfranchise whichever party is in the minority; and (3) the public doesn't care about filibusters, so why waste political capital trying to change the rules?
Viewed broadly, what I misjudged was that the way politics has always been conducted -- or the way it had been conducted for a very long time -- does not mean that it is the way it always will be conducted going forward. The nuclear option had been used as a threat that both sides knew neither side would ultimately use for much of the last decade. That fact alone, however, did not guarantee it would never be used. The reality is that the Senate (and political Washington more generally) is a different place than it was even a few years ago.
The main reason for that is the massive turnover in the Senate over the past several election cycles. Since 2008, 40 new Senators -- 20 Democrats, 20 Republicans -- have been elected. Six years ago, 44 senators had served at least three terms; today that number is 32. At the start of the 113th Congress, more than half the senators had served one full term or less. All of that turnover has led to huge numbers of senators who simply don't know how the other half lives. There are currently 55 senators who have only been in the chamber as a member of the Democratic majority or Republican minority.
That change in the composition of the Senate means that not only are many of the longtime defenders of Senate tradition gone -- people like Bob Byrd of West Virginia, Ted Kennedy of Massachusetts, Pete Domenici of New Mexico and John Warner of Virginia -- but also that long-timers like Reid face a very different caucus than they once did. Reid had been under pressure for quite some time from younger, more liberal members -- like Jeff Merkley -- to change the filibuster rules but had resisted. But, over time his resistance waned as he realized that changing the rules was actually what his caucus now wanted -- and that they were willing to accept the consequences of their actions when they went back into the minority at some point in the future.
Finally, we misread the fact that people don't care about the filibuster. They don't. At all. But, rather than being a deterrent, that lack of interest emboldened Reid. With the public tuned out to the parliamentary fights of the Senate, there was little political risk -- either personally or more broadly for his party -- for Reid's rule change. Is there any way that Louisiana Sen. Mary Landrieu loses reelection next fall because she supported changing the rule on filibusters of executive branch and judicial nominees? Or Kay Hagan in North Carolina? Or Reid if he decides to run for reelection in 2016? No way.
So, that's that. Lesson learned.

Talkin' Heads (SSF) #7
GENRE: YA Fantasy
After their initiation camp is raided, Evja (the guardian) finds Hauk half dead in the river. The two teens belong to neighbouring forest tribes, which live in peace with each other and celebrate initiation rites together. They both grew up thinking their tribes were the only people in the world.
"Do you think you're able to get up, now?" the guardian asked.
Hauk didn't know how much time had passed, but the sun had moved to the top of the sky. "I think so." His voice sounded strange in his own ears.
"Good. Let's go then." The guardian got to her feet. "We have to get home. Find out what this was about"
Hauk gritted his teeth and turned to his back. The pain was bearable. He managed to push himself up with his elbows, but his whole body screamed at the effort.
The guardian held out her hand.
He didn't take it. "What do you mean, what this was about? They took them. Snow and the others.
They took them!"
She startled, and her hand dropped to her side.
Finally some emotion. Hauk lay back breathing heavily. It felt like he'd just run up a steep hill. Maybe he wasn't ready to move after all.
"What do you mean? They? And who's Snow?" The guardian sat back down.
"The bloody Darklings." He didn't know what else to call them, the monstrous men from last night.
"And if we're going somewhere, it will be after them. I'm not letting them slip away into the darkness."
"What are you talking about? We're not going after anybody. You least of all."
Yes I am. If only I could get to my feet.
" Anyway, this must have been some kind of test," the Wight continued.
"A test? What the D makes you think that?"
4 comments:
Even with the actions tied to the dialogue, I'm having a hard time figuring out who's speaking. Part of it is because they sound pretty similar. Sometimes, it's because you introduce an action too late. An example:ReplyDelete
This line takes place after some narration, so it could be anyone speaking:
"What do you mean? They? And who's Snow?" The guardian sat back down.
The action at the end tells us it's Evja speaking, but we don't know that until after we've read all the dialogue. Something like this works better if you get that action in as soon as possible:
"What do you mean?" The guardian sat back down. "They? And who's Snow?"
This bit was also confusing to me:
She startled, and her hand dropped to her side.
Finally some emotion. Hauk lay back breathing heavily. It felt like he'd just run up a steep hill. Maybe he wasn't ready to move after all.
Because I'm not sure who the "Finally, some emotion." Because it's immediately followed by Hauck's action, but before that Evja just startles, which isn't much of an emotion, especially after Hauck just yelled something. So because he just showed a ton of emotion, and Evja not much, it confused me, which then the confusion just left me ungrounded the more I read.
One last example where I was confused about who was speaking:
"The bloody Darklings." He didn't know what else to call them, the monstrous men from last night.
"And if we're going somewhere, it will be after them. I'm not letting them slip away into the darkness."
Hauck speaks the first line. But the second line is a new paragraph, which suggest it's Evja now speaking, but the dialogue seems to be a continuation of what Hauck was saying, so I don't know who was speaking that second line.
Just really watching your beats, paragraph breaks and your tags would really help ground your reader more.
I agree that there could be more clarification about who is speaking and when. Too many dialogue tags can make a passage cluttered, but in this case I think you've gone to the other extreme. And it doesn't always have to be "he said" or "she replied" -- sometimes just describing what they're doing or what they look like as they speak could help to paint the scene a little more clearly. This passage has a good potential; it just needs some tidying up.ReplyDelete
Good luck!
- Dave HaltermanMarch 9, 2017 at 10:40 PM
I'm going to echo Sarah and Matril above and say the language of the dialogue is mostly fine (although I would read a couple of those lines out loud to see if they sound how you think they should), but its the tags and the placement of action descriptors that is causing some issues. Good luck!ReplyDelete
Thank you so much for your help and good wishes!ReplyDelete

BJ Penn has had little time to dwell on losing his lightweight title belt to Frankie Edgar on Saturday night as he's now going on a media blitz to support the release of his new biography, "BJ Penn: Why I Fight – The Belt Is Just An Accessory," which is in stores from today.
Today Penn appeared on Fox News to discuss his book, and in an impromptu skit, Fox host Brian Kilmeade challenged him to show how he would neutralize him in a fight.
The former 155lb champ duly obliged and wrestled the 170lb reporter, and after some resistance from the host as it dawned on him that he was getting owned on live TV, Penn locked up a kimura submission while one of Kilmeade's colleagues threw in the towel (well it was a suit jacket, but who's counting!).
As an unsteady Kilmeade was helped to his feet his female co-host then finished off the segment with a flourish by stating, "After that Brian's going to need some new health care, and that's what we're going to talk about (next).."
Update: BJ Penn's antics on Fox News were used on Comedy Centrals hit program, 'The Daily Show With Jon Stewart' last night. Watch the video here

Philharmonic Orchestra of Jalisco (Guadalajara, Jalisco, Mexico) (Photo credit: Wikipedia)
In the 18th century, symphonies weren't considered as standalone performances. Back then, you cannot expect people to go to a certain venue just to see and hear a symphony being played. It was rather used as a prelude, a postlude or an interlude to some other musical event. The popular movement used was the three-movement which is a start from a fast, to a slow, to again another fast movement. Notable pieces of this form would include Mozart's early symphonies. Soon, this three-movement became a four-movement. Notable composers during this era were Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart and Joseph Haydn.
Professional orchestras started to gain prominence. In the 19th century, another popular composer was born in the person of Beethoven. His famous works include Symphony No. 3 which has a strong emotional note to it. His Symphony No. 5 was well-loved and the most famous of all. His Symphony No. 9 became a choral symphony. Other notable composers of this era were Brahms, Schubert, and Schumann.
The 20th-century symphony saw some modifications to previous works. Long symphonies were created – large-scale in fact. More composers wrote such pieces and it has never ceased to grow from then on. There are still those who wrote using the traditional 4 movements. The 20th-century pieces, as well as the classical ones, are being played today by Toronto chamber orchestra
A symphony cannot be done justice when an incomplete orchestra performs it; this is why when being performed by Mississauga chamber orchestra, they make sure that they have all the right instruments and the right attitude.
Although there are other orchestral pieces that are being performed by Burlington chamber orchestra, the symphony would always remain as one of the best musical scores to be performed.

Hi, I bought a use Linksys BEFSR41v4 with no disc. Thought I could easily download software. Not. I have 3 computers I want to get online and work together. They will all get online individually, but when I insert the router, they won't do anything. The internet light comes on and the switch lights, but can't get on. Also won't talk to each other.

Have you configured the router to authenticate to your ISP?
If you are connected to the router by wire, open your internet browser and type in 192.168.1.1 and configure your router.
For detailed information on how to configure the router, read the manual.

I had a BEFSR41 that ran for several years with out problem. You
don't need any software to set up. Read the manual.
If you have a cable connection, Your isp may have setup your Internet using the MAC address of the computer adapter originaly connected to the modem. You may have to clone your adapter MAC address to the router. The cable company will then see the router as the address of the original adapter.

Militants attacked the capitol airport in Tripoli on Sunday July 20, 2014. Up to 12 planes were damaged in the attack. The attack also included a direct hit of the control tower where casualties were reported.
Some Twitter users posted pictures of the attacks. One photo showed an Airbus A-330 that was appearantly damaged by an RPG. The attack also destroyed a Bombardier CRJ-900 Next Gen and a private jet. Later, photos were posted of another relatively new Airbus A-330 destroyed by rocket fire. A video of this same attack was released just hours ago on You Tube under the account Good Morning Libya. The Airbus A330-200s aircraft were delivered to new Afriquiyah in 2012 as part of an effort for Libya to begin a path to economic normalcy after the fall of the Gadaffi regime.

ISLAMABAD: Authorities in northwest Pakistan have launched a crackdown against banned terrorist groups like Lashkar-e-Toiba that are engaged in relief efforts for flood victims and closed down 16 camps set up by these organisations.
The government of Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa province decided on Sunday to act against outlawed terrorist groups involved in collecting donations for flood victims by using different names, media reports said today.
The provincial government has so far closed 16 relief camps established by groups with terror links, including the Jamaat-ud-Dawah, a front of LeT, which has been blamed by India for the 2008 Mumbai attacks.
Relief camps established in Peshawar, Nowshera, Charsadda, Swat, Dir, Dera Ismail Khan, Shangla and other flood-affected districts were among those closed down. Details about the closure of the relief camps have been sent to the central Interior Ministry by the provincial government.
The Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa government acted after receiving reports that outlawed terrorist groups like the LeT and JuD had been collecting donations for flood victims by using different names and by disguising their actual leadership.
The provincial government issued directives to all district administration chiefs to strictly monitor the activities of banned groups involved in collecting donations for victims of the devastating floods that swept northwest Pakistan.
The central government had last week directed all provinces not to allow banned or militant groups to operate in the garb of relief activities for flood victims. It had also directed the provinces to set up a task force headed by a senior police officer to identify the groups involved in relief efforts and initiate action against them.
The central government acted following widespread concerns expressed by the West about militant groups, including the LeT and Taliban, getting access to international aid and raising funds in the name of the flood victims. The Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa government has formed special police forces to keep an eye on activities of banned groups in flood-hit areas.

Heading back to Whiterun the party was set upon by a pack of feral wolves which provided Zora and opportunity for redemption after being knocked out by the Forsworn beast and allowed Deana to gather sufficient pelts for the guild back in The Drunken Huntsmen. These she duly handed in to Elberond, the Steward of the Guild with the promise of bear pelts to come.
Work was also going on ahead apace in the guild building. A basic structure was now in place and a couple of bedrolls allowed members to rest between forays into the Wild. Elberond assured Deanthala that work would soon be completed and that the Guild would be a fully functional asset in Whiterun that would serve as a source of trade and income and as a means to keep the wildlife around the city in check.
The party spent a day in Whiterun, Lydia having to attend to several duties up at the Dragonreach. Vilja took this opportunity to visit the Temple of Kynareth and came back distraught. A priestess there by the name of Danica had unburdened a story on Vilja about a tree that was dying in Whiterun, the Gildergreen. Apparently the only way to revive the tree was by getting a sapling from the parent tree in a place called the Eldergleam Sanctuary far to the East. Just as Deana was about to ask why the priestess needed their help Vilja continued by saying a magic dagger was needed to part the gnarled, overgrown roots that the tree had extended to protect itself. This 'Nettlebane' was apparently in the hands of a coven of witches and Hagravens known to prey on the travllers on the road to Ivarstead that cuts through the mountains. Vilja pleaded with Deana to help Danica. Such was the passion with which the Nord pleaded her case that Deana could not reject. After all they had a few days to spare, Lydia had informed them that her duties with the Jarl would keep her for at least 3 days. Enough time for the others to embark on the quest.
Orphan Rock proved a tough nut to crack as these Hagravens were ruthless with claw and fire. Furthermore a brace of human witches worked in tandem with them. Vilja was knocked to the brink of death while Zora clearly revelled in the berserk rage of combat. Our heroes prevailed to recover a wickedly jagged dagger that reeked of malevolent magic. The nature loving Vilja even refused to touch the thing, trusting it to Deana's keeping. A cold road through the mountain passes below High Hrothgar awaited.
Arrival at the Eldergleam Sanctuary was uneventful, other than the bone chilling air that cut like a finely honed blade as they moved through the mountains. The Sanctuary was a true sight of woodland beauty. Two large waterfalls emptied from above into a natural cavern of exquisite beauty. Trees, floral and woodland creatures of all shapes and sizes dotted the cavern floor and atop a large hill stood the parent Gildergreen Tree. It shone with a glow of its own bathing all the cavern in its warm light.
Drawing the dagger Deana approached the think roots blocking the way to the tree. As if the Gildergreen was possessed of some sentient power, the roots parted of their own accord sensing the dark magic contained within Nettlebane. The trio wound their way to the top of the hillock to find a woodsman, who announced himself as Maurice Druid of the Elder (not that the title meant anything to Deanthala). His eyes opened in horror as he saw what the Dunmer was holding. He dropped to a fighting stance unclasping a large Quarterstaff strapped to his back.
'Oh goody the tree hugger wants to play,' spat Zora unleashing the two hander from its holster.
'Hold,' cried Deana. She opened her palms wide and said, 'we wish the tree no harm but rather wish some of its sap to restore its sibling in Whiterun.'
Maurice seemed to lessen his aggressive stance and abandoned it completely when Vilja told him what Dancia had spoken about.
'The spirits of the wood indicate your pure intentions child of Morrowind,' he said suddenly. The party instantly readied weapons when a number of Spriggans materialised from within the Gildergreen itself.
'Put those down as they mean you no harm. On the contrary they bare a most wondrous gift…'
Indeed as the Spriggans morphed back into the tree they left a young sapling identical to the mother tree, just as brilliant and majestic as its parent but smaller.
'Take this to the priestess of Kynareth and tell her that from death must come life. This sapling will grow in the earth of the old and provide new life and flower once again.' With that he bade the party farewell and resumed his praying before the Gildergreen once again.

The internet is a great job search tool. However, predatory recruiters and job scams are abundant, especially targeting entry-level job seekers. The marketing, social media and public relations areas are especially vulnerable with hundreds of "marketing/promotions" jobs that sound great. However, many of these are actually just commission only door-to-door sales, telemarketing job schemes or worse job scams.
Here's how to spot a "fake" or less-than desirable opportunity.
- Google the company name and key word "scam," "fraud," "complaints" or "lawsuits." It is amazing what pops up when you add a few key word searches.
- Where and how was the advertisement posted? Craigslist and even Linked-In are full of bad job leads. If there isn't a professional and formal job listing, avoid it. If you can't track the opportunity back to a company web site or legitimate job site, it is probably not a desirable opportunity. Finally, if they require no experience (even for entry-level) or no details about skills required, it is unlikely to be a viable job.
- Be sure the company has a legitimate and professional web site. Does the domain name even exist? Does the site just have stock photography and no real employee biographies or photos? Red flag. Do more research. If the site talks up their amazing employees, but don't mention the type of work or business they actually do, it is likely a scam company.
- Verify the actual address, phone number and location. Do a map check. See if they pop up on other legitimate search engines.
- Check for companies with multiple business names. These are usually companies that constantly change their name to avoid lawsuits. You can also check to see if the company is listed with the area Chamber of Commerce or search the Better Business Bureau.
- Check out Glassdoor.com or other job review sites. Scroll through employee reviews.
- Did you already accept the interview and get cattle-called in? Did they offer you a job right on the spot? If the answer is yes, than this is likely a company with a VERY high turnover rate or a pay to play position.
- You have to pay a placement fee or start up investment. You should never have to pay a recruiter or a company to get started in a position.
- No career path outlined! "Fast-advancement" is not a career path. Ask for job details in writing, supervisor information, review process and ask them to outline the compensation and benefits IN WRITING. If they won't do this, this isn't the job for you.
- Final gut check. These are warning signs: They have dozens of openings and A LOT of great job titles. They promote fast to management positions. They seem like they are pitching you vs. you trying to get the job. When you submitted your application, they call you back almost immediately and want to talk or meet with you right away.
Sadly the adage, "if it sounds too good to be true…." is a popular phrase for a reason.
There are hundreds of amazing companies out there. Be patient, do diligent research and keep at it (click here for: Ten Ways to Find a Job) and you will land a great job at a quality company.T

By Aniruddh "Andrew" Bansal
The legendary New Wave Of British Heavy Metal movement of the late 1970s gave rise to some of my favorite music, and even today, it doesn't cease to amaze me. Over the past couple of years, that era has seen somewhat of a resurgence, with the reincarnation of Tank in 2010, Saxon touring North America in 2011 after a long time, and Angel Witch releasing their new album this year, their first after a gap of 14 years. Now it's the turn of Savage, who have reunited after a 10-year hiatus and have come out with their sixth studio release "Sons Of Malice". Formed in 1979 by bassist/vocalist Chris Bradley and guitarist Andy Dawnson, teenagers at the time, the band gained recognition in their early years through songs like "Let It Loose", which was also covered by Metallica for their pre-Kill 'Em All demo recordings. Fast forward to 2012, Savage is back to present some of the very same musical elements that made them an influential band in the early days, but with a modern touch.
Chris Bradley's voice has shown no sign of aging whatsoever, and he sounds as crisp and lively on this album as he's ever done. His voice combines with Andy Dawson's guitar riffs and tone to recreate the distinct Savage sound that separates them from the other bands of the NWOBHM movement. But interestingly, even though they've retained this signature sound, they've approached the songwriting for "Sons Of Malice" with a modern outlook. Compared to their early albums, their musical style on this album is definitely more towards the hard rock side of the genre spectrum, which is actually a good thing because it presents something fresh to the listeners and doesn't drift into the type of music that's already been released many times over by fellow NWOBHM bands.
The 13-track album has quite a bit of variety, ranging from upbeat mid-tempo tunes to slower, groovier ones, with a couple of fast-paced songs thrown in the mix as well. Amongst the more groove-oriented tracks, "Black 'N Blue" is one of the highlights of the album as the song structure allows the listener to absorb and enjoy every musical component. It's reminiscent of Bon Scott-era AC/DC in some ways, which is never a bad thing for any rock lover. The title song is another great slow number on here, which revolves around an instantly catchy guitar riff. It really is the quintessential hard rock tune, and is an excellent representation of the album, and indeed the band.
"Waking The Dead" is most certainly my favorite track on the album, though. The fastest, most aggressive tune on the album, this one has tremendous repeat value, and I simply can't get enough of it at the moment. Upon listening to it, I'm sure most people will agree with me. The vocals, the riffs, solos, and the rhythm section, everything is just dead-on perfect. Take my word for it, this song alone is worth the price of this album.
With that being said, there are definitely other worthwhile tunes on the album, such as "Monkey On My Back", "Blow" and "Now". The only aspect in which the album falters sightly is the overdose of the mid-tempo songs. I feel they could have done without one or two of those. But other than that, this album serves as a delightful treat for all hard rock and heavy metal fans. The production and mixing is top notch, and makes this the band's most polished album till date. If you haven't heard it yet, I strongly recommend you to pick it up.
Savage have undoubtedly made a successful return, and with an album as strong as "Sons Of Malice", their decision to make a comeback has been vindicated.

Austrian-based Next Generation Recyclingmaschinen GmbH (NGR) has opened a representative office in Taiwan as part of its global expansion plans.Situated in Taipei's business district, the representative office is being led by Martin Hehenberger, an Austrian citizen who has been living in Taipei since 2001.
NGR says the Taiwan plastic industry has been growing strong over the past few decades with a focus on quality. This in combination with increasing efforts towards environmental protection and resource-friendly operations, have made NGR's choice to strengthen its position in this market.Increasing costs of plastic resins in Taiwan have turned even plastic waste into a valuable resource.
Industrial plastic processors are upgrading their in-house waste management facilities to enhance their plastic waste for further use in the primary process. Plastic post-consumer waste now more often finds its way to professional recycling-companies for re-pelletizing, instead of being incinerated or dumped on landfills. According to NGR, more and more Taiwanese manufacturers are appreciating the value gain from these rather new technologies.

We came up with the genius idea to turn our monthly newsletter into a video newsletter! It may seem like the obvious thing to do, since we produce videos and all, but we think it's genius!
If we've learned anything in this business, it's that most people would rather watch a video than read a big long email. If you're not one of those people chances are you aren't reading this, but nonetheless, I've provided a written summary down below…
Because it's our first video newsletter, we thought we'd focus the content on just that – how to use video to improve your email marketing campaigns.
We talk about Wistia and the incredible video tracking tools it offers. The first great feature we cover is Wistia's integration with MailChimp. They make it easy to embed video in your Mailchimp marketing campaign and track the stats that come from your newsletter subscribers. We use Mailchimp, so this was great news for us.
So Mailchimp will continue to share great stats with us, like how many people opened our email, unsubscribed, clicked on links etc. and Wistia will use their heatmaps to tell us who watched our video, how long they watched it for, what parts they watched the most, and even grade our leads so we know who to focus our attention on first.
You don't have to direct your newsletter traffic to Wistia either – you can set a Wistia player up on a landing page, your website, in a blog post or wherever you like. Wistia can just be the place you go to view your stats…
Aside from being able to use these two great web-based services, you'll be using the power of simple video to engage your audience and make it easier for them to remember your message.
If you're interested in an explanatory video for your business, we'd be happy to draw up some concepts for you. Just fill out the creative brief survey to tell us what you're looking for and we'll come up with some custom illustrations in no time!

Denver is the Hollywood of cannabis, according to KC Stark. As for Colorado Springs, he sees it as Silicon Valley -- which is why he decided it was the perfect place to serve as a base for his latest venture, MMJ Business Academy.
The academy's mission, Stark explains, is to break down and explain the new and complicated laws and licensing procedures for people looking to get into the pot industry.
"We saw the need for comprehensive understanding of that marijuana monopoly game. It's three-dimensional; it moves and changes. It's brutal," Stark says.
While speaking at the Colorado Cannabis Summit last month, Stark emphasized the importance of having a plan in order to survive the savage marijuana industry. You have to know the game and you have to know yourself, he said. And the MMJ Business Academy is designed to help people gain that knowledge.
The school has several ways to accomplish this goal. One option is a private sit-down with Stark; the ninety-minute sessions can be scheduled with just a day's notice. There are also eight-hour seminars scheduled every few weeks, with parties after the sessions so that attendees can socialize and network with other entrepreneurs. The Academy offers marijuana grow classes, too, as well as business and regulatory support.
Jim Comerford, a Vail businessman, decided to do the personal intensive. Comerford owns several businesses around Vail, and after hearing about the success that a friend's son was having in the marijuana industry, he decided to start his own business.
"He gave me a good foundation to work off of. He told me a lot about the licensing, about the difficulty and challenges ahead," Comerford says. "He warned me, way in advance, that politics always plays a very big part in new businesses and grow businesses." Comerford's retail marijuana operation, High Society, is expected to open in the Eagle-Vail area later this year.

The opportunities in the marijuana business will continue to grow, Stark says. He believes federal legalization of cannabis could come within the next four years, since both public and political opinion shows a trend in that direction. In late May, for instance, the House of Representatives passed a bipartisan bill that blocks the Drug Enforcement Adminsitration from attacking marijuana businesses that are legal under state law.

But the industry still faces numerous challenges, including the obstacle to banking, which Colorado is working to overcome. There are also environmental challenges. Growing marijuana takes a lot of energy and water. The Academy has found a way to overcome this issue, Stark says, by using Front Range Aquaponics to recycle its water, making the business 90 percent water-sustainable.
And Stark has found other ways to keep his business sustainable. Studio A64 is an offshoot of the Academy. The first cannabis social club in the United States, he says, it has survived two cease-and-desist letters, as well as two public hearings, in order to keep its doors open in Colorado Springs. From 6 p.m. until midnight Wednesday through Saturday, those 21 and up can bring their own cannabis and consume it at Studio A64.
The Academy's next seminar, "How to Open Your Own Canna-Business," takes place on June 21; the cost is $299. (For more information, click here.) Following the seminar is an after-party at Studio A64: After you work hard, you get to play hard.

As I've stated in previous blogs, I hate waiting in lines for tourist stuff. Unfortunately, I had to suck it up for Rome because 1) I can't go through the Vatican drunk at night like my Florence sightseeing experience and 2) there are way too many things to see here!
Vatican City - Everything we saw was magnificent! However, it was so hot and there were too many tours going through at the same time. There wasn't even time to admire the art because a stampede of people would've bulldozed me over. Is there a way I can be Oprah for a day and get a private tour? (Not sure if she's gotten a private tour before, but she's my best bet of someone who could shut down the building.)
|This hallway had many, many statues. Many.
|This picture was taken while looking out the window onto the courtyard.
|There were rooms and rooms of art. Rooms...
|Even the ceilings and floors were art.
|These white and gold lockers lined the walls to our exit. I felt like I was attending a fancy middle school!
|I LOVED this ceiling - the colors were so stunning!
|This was the hallway of Maps - my 2nd favorite room outside of the Sistine Chapel.
|I appreciated this collection of candle holders and a cross - I had to take a picture!
The Colosseum - Completed in AD 80, this building was large and in charge. We sat there trying to imagine how people physically built something so massive that long ago. This is still the largest amphitheater in the world and, at it's time, could hold up to 80,000 poeple Wiki/Colosseum. The Romans were not playin' around with building structures.
|All I wanted to do while in Rome was to take a picture of the Colosseum at night.
The Pantheon - Built in AD 126, this was actually one of my favorite things to see (without going inside, of course). I was completely in awe of how massive and old this building was! The dome is still the world's largest unreinforced concrete dome Wiki/Pantheon.
|The Romans definitely embraced the saying "go big or go home." Again, not playin' around.
Other Beautiful Old Buildings
-Part of The Forum
-Supreme Court of Cassation
-Altare della Patria
If you missed Rome Part 1 and really want to see more pictures, click HERE. There really are key things we were not able to see because of time. And I really wished I would've read up on the history of Rome, but I didn't. I'll guess we have to go back again! And, definitely not in the summer!
Also, next I'm working on my life-changing thoughts about Italy that I think everyone should embrace! Stay tuned...

Enron at one time was a Fortune 500 company, but in truth it was just a fallacy and a lie for what it truly was, an ethically bankrupt company that eventually became a bankrupt company. Henry Taylor, a 19th century statesman wrote "Falsehood ceases to be falsehood, when the truth is not expected to be spoken". Enron senior management gets a failing grade on truth and disclosure. The purpose of ethics is to enable recognition of how a particular situation will be perceived. It is recognized that a certain amount of puffing, exaggeration, and bluffing is part of the business game. When does it become a problem that your ethics don't even matter anymore and you break major rules of ethics?
Ken Ley and Jeffrey Skilling are at the top of the list of liars and deceivers in what is one of the biggest business scandals in the history of modern business. But they are not the only ones to be blamed, even though they were the leaders. Accountants, financial institutions, and financial analysts role is to serve shareholders and potential shareholders in rectifying the information asymmetries that exist when shareholders deal directly with the company. Enron's accountants, including Arthur Anderson, and many Wall Street analysts ratified and legitimized the company's scenarios and statements regarding its prospects.
I also could not believe a business as big as Enron would even allow for a conflict of interests to evolve. I have no idea how The Enron board "waived" the company's own ethics code requirements to allow the company's CFO to serve as general partner for the partnerships that it was using as a conduit for much of its business. Regardless, it was a horrible decision and a show that all Enron really cared about in the end was the almighty dollar.
The biggest lack of ethics of all is that Ley and Skilling didn't have the guts to be able to take responsibility for their actions. The belief that a leader...

New mixes
United Kingdom
Hailing from London, Hot Chip entered the picture with the release of their 2000 debut, Mexico. The EP was released by Victory Garden Records, a label owned and operated by members of London's resident lo-fi psychedelic rock institution, Southall Riot. The Mexico EP was a hypnotic wash of subtle -- nearly subliminal -- pulse-like techno beats, acoustic guitars, and plinky pianos, but the vocals were the true star of the show (no small feat in a musical climate overrun with disaffected Lou Reed-esque mumblers and bland Eddie Vedder impersonators). The voices of Alexis Taylor and Joe Goddard are a fine study in contrast. Taylor offers dreamy, effortless falsettos that cut to the heart of the beauty of performers like Jeff Buckley and Nick Drake (minus any of the pretentiousness of Radiohead or even Coldplay or the bland vocal acrobatics of Remy Zero).
