Colton Underwood Applauds Hannah Brown's Windmill Sex Confession
By jennifer | on July 12, 2019 |
Throwing the format out the window! That's what season 23 Bachelor Colton Underwood Opens a New Window. thinks about Hannah Brown Opens a New Window. 's season of The Bachelorette Opens a New Window. —and he's all about it.
Bachelor Nation Has Opinions on Who Hannah Should Pick	Opens a New Window.
"I say, what the fence was to me, the windmill is to Hannah," Underwood, 27, told Entertainment Tonight Opens a New Window. about the Brown's recent confession about having sex in a windmill. "But talk about a bomb getting dropped! I'm here for all of it! I know it's sort of polar opposite of what my take on my season was, but I think that's what's so cool about the Bachelor franchise, is everybody has their own twists to things."
During Underwood's season, he famously jumped a fence after Cassie Randolph Opens a New Window. eliminated herself and left him heartbroken. The overlying theme was that he was a virgin — and he's thrilled to see that with Brown, it's a different scenario.
Bachelor Nation Sex Confessions	Opens a New Window.
"You either get scrutinized for not having sex or scrutinized for having too much. There is no middle ground," the former football player said. "I think it was just two completely different things, but if that's what she was feeling was necessary for that relationship, then I'm glad that she got to do it. Because sometimes with the show, you get your hands tied a little bit with the format of the show. And I'm glad to see that the format has sort of gone away. Let these relationships be what they are."
Brown, 24, placed seventh in Underwood's season. During a promo for the fantasy suite dates episode of The Bachelorette, Luke Parker seemingly sex-shames Brown, who reveals, "I f–ked in a windmill. And guess what? We did it a second time!"
Since her statement, Bachelor Nation has rallied behind her, applauding her for owning her sexuality. "I was surprised she was so bold and forthcoming with it," season 13 Bachelorette Rachel Lindsay said after the episode. "But I mean, she owns it so more power to her."

Water Jet cutting is a method of cutting metal with no heat. As the name suggests highly pressurized water is used to slice metal into the desired shape. Water jet cutting provides extreme accuracy and burr-free parts. The automotive, racing and architectural industries employ water jet cutting techniques to create attractive and precise metal parts.
CMS North America provides machining equipment and solutions, including water jet cutting solutions throughout the contract manufacturing industry. The CMS North America site also provides water jet cutting technological overviews including material types that are suitable for water jet cutting and water jet quality index.
Delmar Company Delmar Company provides quality plastic fabrication and machining production for many advanced industries. Their plastic production services are completed in-house at their state-of-the-art facility located in Lakeville, Minnesota. A few of their services include waterjet cutting, plastic welding, and prototype machining.
Industrial Metal Supply not only sells metal materials, they also offer full-service water jet cutting to give customers products that match their specifications.
Waterjet cutting offers many advantages over more traditional cutting techniques. The primary advantage of waterjet cutting is that the process does not product high levels of heat that can damage the structural properties of the material being cut. In traditional cutting of metals, there is a "heat affected zone" radiating outward from the cutting point in which the grain and structure of the metal is compromised, often reducing its strength or wear resistance.
Another advantage of water jet cutting is the extremely fine and precise cuts that can be made. Non-abrasive waterjet cutting can produce a cut that is only 0.003″ in width — about the width of a human hair. When coupled with computer cutting software to operate the waterjet cutter extremely detailed and precise cuts can be made with an absolute minimum of waste.
Water jet cutting can be used in a host of industrial applications for cutting just about any kind of material. Water jet cutting was originally developed as a way to cut lumber in the 1950s. In the '70s the technology advanced enormously when abrasives were added to the pressurized water stream, allowing waterject cutting of much harder materials.
Today water jet cutting is commonly used to cut all kinds of metal and even stone, including granite.
Since water jet cutting uses only water suffused with abrasives (suspended grit) it is considered an incredibly green technology that doesn't produce environmentally hazardous waste products. Additionally, the precise cutting that is available with water jet cutting technology allows manufacturers to produce less waste product.

All My Skies Are Blue
Love's Deadline
Dead Birds and the Man I once Loved
Shanghai/Mission Man
You Don't Love me
Acres for Us
Transferred directly to CD straight from an audio cassette tape received in the mail one day, ALL MY SKIES ARE BLUE is an unpolished, naked collection of songs recorded to four-track over a three year period. It covers a wide gamut of moods and sounds, moving quickly from the dense, rumbling tones of "dredge" and "halloween," through the ugliness-embodied in "shit," to the well-orchestrated, slightly more hopeful and extremely beautiful "I'm down." It hits full stride with "acres," a song as vast and grand as its title suggests. A remarkable debut by an artist who is truly a diamond in the rough.

WMU football special teams coach J.B. Gibboney resigns from his position on Broncos' staff
Updated Aug 21, 2013 ; Posted Aug 21, 2013

J.B. Gibboney
KALAMAZOO, MI --
Western Michigan University special teams and defensive backs coach J.B. Gibboney has resigned from his position, head coach P.J. Fleck said after Tuesday night's practice at Waldo Stadium.
Gibboney was not present at Tuesday night's practice.
"He came in my office today (Tuesday) and resigned. He quit," Fleck said. "We had a good talk. It wasn't like he just came in my office and said, 'Hey, I quit.' He has some personal issues that he needs to deal with and some issues that he wants to be able to handle.
"I support him 100 percent. I wish him all the best in his future endeavors. We had a good conversation for about an hour and he felt the best thing for him was not to coach this year and to be with his family."
Gibboney was hired on Jan. 11, after spending the previous five seasons on Purdue's staff. He was the Boilermaker' special teams coach from 2009-12.
Fleck said Western Michigan graduate assistant Rob Wenger will be the interim special teams coach and a permanent decision would hopefully be made by the weekend.
"As of right now, what we've done is moved Rob Wenger, our defensive graduate assistant, to special teams," Fleck said. "We'll make a permanent decision whether we're going to do that or not with him here in the near future. He's been a special teams coordinator, defensive coordinator. We give every one of the assistants an area, plus he was working with the special teams every day, so he's going to be fine if we decide to go that direction."
Western Michigan plays Michigan State in less than 10 days in the season opener.
Gibboney was charged with developing sophomore punter J Schroeder as well as sophomore place kicker Andrew Haldeman and freshman Brett Scanlon.
All three appeared to be making good progress in camp.
It's still unclear who will be the Broncos' kickoff return man. Senior running back Dareyon Chance had been fielding punts in recent practices.
Wenger was an operations assistant in 2008 at Rutgers. He was on the player development staff in 2008 and '09. From 2010-12, Wenger spent time coaching at St. Thomas Aquinas High School in Fort Lauderdale, Fla., and at Allegheny College in Meadville, Pa.

Black Mirror series designer Joel Collins was integral to creating the look of the Charlie Brooker series. He reveals how he creates such rich visual worlds, from Netflix's Black Mirror to working on the hugely complex BBC/HBO adaptation of Philip Pullman's His Dark Materials.
There's already plenty of speculation about the future technology and dystopian worlds that will be unveiled in the upcoming fifth series of Netflix hit Black Mirror.
This sense of anticipation was only heightened when a surprise interactive episode, Bandersnatch, was released over Christmas.
However, when the fifth series of Black Mirror launches later this year, there will be one very significant behind-the-scenes change.
The production designer Joel Collins, who has worked as series designer on the past 19 episodes, moved on after the fourth season to work on the BBC and HBO's upcoming adaptation of Philip Pullman's His Dark Materials.
Collins, who is a co-founder of design studio Painting Practice, was integral to creating the look and tone of Charlie Brooker's dystopian series.
Each episode of the sci-fi anthology has its own standalone story, set in a distinctive future world – and each has its own director and production crew to give it a unique feel.
However, when Collins was first approached about working on the production design for one of the first three episodes, he insisted on working on all of them – or not at all. He didn't think the job would make sense otherwise, as the episodes might differ in tone too much to fit together as part of an anthology.
"I felt it was the only way to manage the tone of an anthology like this, and to understand how different you need to be between each one," says Collins, who credits include The Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy, Son of Rambow and the upcoming adaptation of Watership Down, and who won BAFTAs for The Day of the Triffids (2010) and Black Mirror (2018).
Collins added one more caveat during his initial discussions about working on Black Mirror: he wanted to work not just across production design, but also on the title sequence, motion graphics and visual effects too.
In other words, he wanted to be across the whole filmmaking process of the series.
"I treat design like visual scripting. The environment speaks as much as words," says Collins, who teamed up with Dan May in 2007 to create Painting Practice, which combines concept design, production design and visual effects under one roof.
Collins, along with Brooker and producer Annabel Jones, was a key figure in the production of Black Mirror, helping to provide a sense of continuity across the series.
Before it was poached by Netflix, the first two series of Black Mirror played on Channel 4 – and the budget was relatively tight for a show which needed to create ambitious future worlds from scratch for each episode.
So, Collins' initial work focused on establishing the right tone. From the beginning, it was all about creating a subtle production design that would allow the story to play out without being too distracting.
"The phrase I would use related to Black Mirror is, "Just because you can, doesn't mean you should," says Collins.
This sounds a deceptively simple maxim for the series, but it turned out to be a crucial one. After all, the design for each episode of a series set in future or alternative universes could have been as weird and wacky as the programme makers wanted it to be.
Instead, the production design was deliberately restricted and not pushed too far. "Black Mirror is not like a movie where it is all about the world you have created – it is not a world that is so overt that it overplays its hand," says Collins.
He sums it up with an anecdote about an early episode in which a piece of technology could be swiped by characters. Rather than aping a movie like Minority Report where the characters use huge gestures to swipe screens, the Black Mirror tech was all about small, discreet swipes. "We thought very carefully about how people would really behave," says Collins.
Collins' company Painting Practice produced much of the VFX in-house, but as the series got bigger it contracted VFX work to the likes of Framestore, DNeg, MPC and Jellyfish.
He cites the first three episodes - The National Anthem, Fifteen Million Merits and The Entire History of You - as ones that he is particularly proud of, for the way in which they helped set the tone of the series.
However, each of the 19 episodes he worked on was 'extraordinarily complex', says Collins.
For the upcoming series of Black Mirror, an individual production designer is now working on each one.
He has no doubt the new series will be a huge success, and says his decision to move on to His Dark Materials – expected to air on the BBC in the UK and HBO in the US later this year – was tough. It was also about seeking a new challenge.
"Leaving Black Mirror is utter torture because I was there from the beginning," says Collins.
As well as a being a hugely complex production, His Dark Materials is being made by an impressive team: Jack Thorne (Harry Potter and the Cursed Child, This is England '88) is adapting the book, while Tom Hooper (The King's Speech, Les Misérables) is lead director. The series is produced by Jane Tranter and Julie Gardner's new indie Bad Wolf.
As with Black Mirror, Collins is working right across the design of His Dark Materials – overseeing the creation of the entire physical and virtual world of the series.


Most entrepreneurs don't start a business because they have a passion for running a business or are an expert on operations. They do it because they're passionate about their idea and feel that what they have to offer is sure to attract their target audience. Unfortunately, the entrepreneur's journey is never an easy one.
It's true that what you don't know will hurt you. The world is constantly changing, and savvy business owners understand that they need to make time to work on their business instead of in it. To be successful, they must constantly learn and stay current in their field, on employment, in marketing and so much more.
Besides having the skills to expertly perform the tasks of the position they are given, having excellent communication skills are a necessity and will also be a reflection of the company. Also, being able to clearly communicate helps keep employees, management and clients in tune with the business.
Business coaches often stay on top of the trends. They'll be able to help you pinpoint what you're missing, identify possible roadblocks, help you come up with strategies to address them and help you remain accountable when it comes to following through.
Research your industry and be ready for changes. If you're not the kind of business owner who can be responsive and flexible to the needs of your business, entrepreneurship might not be for you.
Conferences and networking events are the perfect opportunity to learn from people in your industry (including your competitors), listen to the speakers and meet people, including potential clients. Even if the presentation is about something you're familiar with, it will reaffirm what you already know or provide inspiration.
There are online courses covering every topic these days, so the possibilities of furthering your education without leaving home are endless. Online courses are also a great way to achieve added business designations that can help improve your credibility.
Read anything that applies to you and your business, whether it's about improving your sales skills, wealth, communications, cold calling skills or making the most out or email or social media marketing. Even if the topic seems a bit dry, the usefulness may become relevant down the road.
Today's podcast technology provides the convenient ability to listen to and take in different content topics during your down time. You can listen to podcasts in the car, on a plane or at the gym. Where ever you desire.
Always spend time learning and continuing to improve your business because what you don't know will hurt you. But what you do know will set you apart from the competition.
Have you ever had a situation where what you didn't know, hurt you? What did you learn from that event? I'd love to read your advice in the comments below.
Intentional compensation is key to running a successful business and It's more than just numbers on a check.
Intentional compensation may include profit sharing, commissions, bonuses, health and medical benefits, paid time off, company functions, prizes, giveaways and more.
As the economy improves, more and more small businesses need to consider how they're paying employees and the messages that they're sending based on their compensation structure.
You can still fail as a business if you don't say thank you in your employee's paycheck even if you do all of the right things in terms of leadership, culture, and communication. When you implement intentional compensation, your message clearly conveys that winning is rewarded and losing isn't. What are your actions telling you? Are you compensating the people who you value accordingly? Your actions speak louder than words. You can say you value productivity and innovation, but when you don't demonstrate that in your compensation system, you simply aren't being truthful.
Salary—Fixed salary positions reward employees for showing up. They're great for attracting talent , but they don't necessarily motivate them to go beyond minimal requirements. In fact, they do just the opposite with very rare exceptions. These rare gems are the employees with fixed salary positions who bear the brunt of the entire team's workload. While team members chat, go for breaks or long lunches, these workers produce and bring extraordinary value to the company. Unfortunately, I've never seen one stay long. They often get frustrated or burn out because often we reward our most productive employees with more work instead of more pay. No wonder they run for the doors!
Profit Sharing—Profit sharing provides a certain percentage of the company's profits as a bonus to employees monthly, quarterly, or annually. The key to this type of compensation is to ensure that employees know how they specifically contribute to the revenue by either increasing profits or decreasing expenses. This bonus is not something that employees should expect to receive, but rather something that they earn based upon their contributions to the company's revenue.
Commission—There are many different commission structures that you can implement. Salary plus commissions deliver a small guaranteed salary and a percentage of every sale. Most commission plans are set up this way. Draw plus commissions provides a set amount of money each pay period. It's very much like a loan since commissions aren't received until the draw is repaid. The downfall of the draw plus commissions plan is during the launch of a new product. Because the product isn't proven, sales reps might feel discouraged if the draw balance rises significantly. In that scenario, it's a good idea to evaluate whether you want to allow for a reduction in the draw balance to allow the employee to receive commissions. Both the salary and draw plans pay for performance and work well when implemented with intention.
It's never a good idea to reduce the pay of your employees. It's demotivating and often leads to reduced productivity. If performance is poor, then work with the employee to improve upon it or let them go. You'll see a better return on your dollar if you pay for a superstar rather than get a great deal on mediocrity.
What kind of commission structure do you offer your employees? Let me know in the comments and be sure to include your company's name if you're hiring!
Vendor relationships are essential to the success of any business and millions of dollars are lost because of poor vendor selection. Here are tips that you can use to select the perfect vendor for your small business.
Integrity—The depth of every relationship is limited to the depth of trust. Search for vendors that do what they say they'll do. The ones that deliver on time as promised.
Capacity—Capacity is one of the most important considerations in vendor selection. Know your vendor's lead times for planning, production, and delivery and be careful to include these durations in your project schedule.
Price—Negotiate and get the best price that you can, but be aware that your vendor must be able to make a profit as well. Otherwise, you'll soon be looking for another one.
Quality—Substandard products or services are unacceptable. Ensure that you receive what you've ordered with the level of quality that you paid for.
Once you've selected a vendor you may need to draft a contract so that both parties are clear on the deliverables. When you enter into a contract with a vendor, you should plan for the best and worst-case scenarios. Hire a lawyer to draft it so that your interests are being looked after. Ensure that you include what happens in the event of default, death, disability, drug use, divorce, disinterest, and destruction. Read every word on the contract and make sure all parties have fully executed copies.
Be careful to only do business as your company so that you're not personally held responsible for your company's liability. Always sign business contracts as the office you hold instead of your personal name. For example, instead of signing a contract as Debra Boyd, I would sign it as Debra Boyd, Member of DLB Consulting, LLC. This way any contract that I sign with a vendor clearly demonstrates that I am signing on behalf of the company.
Vendors can make or break your business, so it's essential that you select the right ones and work closely to nurture the relationship. Be intentional in your business and avoid costly mistakes.
If you're in the market for the perfect small business accounting and consulting firm for your business, I'd love to chat with you. Call me for a free consultation on how I can help your business succeed.
In order to gain an increasing share of the market place you must win customers. Before you can win customers, you must first win the hearts of your employees.
Unfortunately, we've done a poor job of this in America and the data is clear. According to Gallup's State of the American Workplace report, an alarming 70 percent of full-time employees are not engaged in work or they are actively disengaged. This disengagement leads to a host of unproductive activity, high turnover, and costs businesses millions.
The first time I received a handwritten thank you note was from a director that I worked with in a Fortune 500 company. I was into my second decade of working in corporate America and I had received many cash awards and recognitions for my work, but I had never received a hand written thank you card. There's just something special about the written word because it indicates that the sender put time and thought into the task. The small token of appreciation that was inside of it was nice, but I treasured that card and proudly displayed it on the wall of my cubicle for almost a year.
Recognition is powerful when it's done in front of peers. Recognizing your highest sales employee in front of the IT staff does nothing to motivate other sales employees to work harder. However, recognizing that same employee in front of the sales team motivates the entire team to perform. This type of recognition can also be done in email form. Simply send out the recognition and watch as everyone rallies by replying to the list and confirming just how great that employee truly is.
Men and women will fight hard for the opportunity to win. The prize doesn't have to be expensive. It can be a cheap as a t-shirt or as expensive as a vacation. The size of the prize really doesn't matter. People will compete to win whatever prize or challenge you lay before them.
Acknowledging an event in an employee's life demonstrates that you care. Place special events, such as birthdays, anniversaries, baby showers, and weddings on your calendar so that you are reminded to acknowledge those events. You'll be amazed at just how far that goes to not only win the heart of your employees, but their families as well.
Employees need recognition, and there are many different ways that you can satisfy that need and create a more engaged employee. Remember to recognize only the behaviors that you want others to model. Recognition doesn't have to be expensive; it's your actions that demonstrate that you care.
What are innovative ways of recognition that you've implemented in your business?
Securing financial peace for your small business is important to your business, and due diligence is needed to reduce the chances that accounting errors or fraudulent activities lead your business towards failure. According to Dave Ramsey, most small businesses fail because of poor accounting, lack of budgeting, and debt. These might seem like basic tasks, but as many as 73.6 percent of small businesses fail after five years. Positive cash flow is essential, and it can make or break a business.
Keep Expenses Separate—Never comingle personal and business expenses. Deposit your business income and pay your expenses from your business account. You don't need expensive business checks or an account with high fees. You can often open a business account with a few dollars, and eliminate fees by setting up a few bill pays online.
Set Aside Taxes—When you pay yourself a wage, you'll need to set aside money for taxes as well. A good rule of thumb is to set aside 25% of the amount that you withdraw from your account to pay taxes when they're due.
Budget—Every business should have a profit and loss statement for tax purposes. However, not every business has a realistic budget. A budget helps you plan for the future and manage your expenses. It will serve as a barometer for how your business is performing, and you'll be able to identify any seasonal or systemic problems that drain your cash.
Act Your Wage—Don't pile on the debt by buying fancy cars, new equipment, and expensive furniture for appearance purposes. Only buy what you need to keep your business running. As your wage increases, so can your toys.
Eliminate Debt—Venture capitalists and investors favor companies that demonstrate positive cash flow. According to the Bureau of Census data, 60 percent of small businesses need less than $5,000 to get started. Start small and gradually expand as you experience more and more success.
Save for Purchases—Systematically save for large purchases by setting aside a fixed amount every month towards the purchase price. If you can't save the money, it's likely that you won't be able to make the payments either.
Rent First and Buy Used—Rent expensive equipment until you can pay cash. When you save enough for the purchase, consider buying high quality used equipment to save money.
Outsource—Outsource if you don't have the skill or financial means to perform the work in house.
Retain Earnings—You'll want to retain some of your income for emergency expenses, a sudden loss of revenue, a great deal, or an investment in your company.
The easiest way to apply these principles is to develop an accurate budget and do a better job of accounting. You should also purchase only what your business needs to be successful, not just what you need for a tax break. How are you securing financial peace for your small business? I'd love to hear your tips, and share them on a future post.
If you want a successful, sustainable business you'll need to serve your customers. Successful leaders don't sell products or services. Instead, they focus on serving their customers with a product that they are both passionate about, and believe will benefit their customers. The process is relational, not transactional.
A qualified prospect has money, time, a need or want, and the power to make a decision. If you're talking to a buyer that doesn't have all four of these things, then you're trying to make a sale to an unqualified person. If by chance the sale does occur, you will have a higher probability of a product return, canceled contract, or an unsatisfied customer. Always ensure that you're working with the person who is qualified to make the purchase.
The second step of the buying and selling process is to build rapport. Building rapport includes professionalism and a polished attitude. You need to find common ground with the person that you're trying to sell to. Networking and referrals can help to establish rapport in advance. When your customers are willing to tell their friends about the great service or product that they've received from you, the amount of rapport building that you have to do is somewhat reduced.
Know your target customer. If your customer is very detail oriented, you'll need to ensure that you know every detail about your product before you discuss it with them. Getting into a conversation about your product without the necessary details is not only embarrassing, but it can cost you the sale. Customers who don't trust you, your product, and your company, simply will not purchase from you.
The third step of the buying and selling process is education. Know how your product solves your customer's problems. Be aware of the details, and know your product intimately. Help your customer visualize how your product will make their lives easier.
Be passionate about your product. It is your responsibility to ensure that not only do you believe that you are selling the best product at the best price, but your team does as well. You should also know your competition so that you can point out how your brand is different than your competitors. Don't trash your competitors. Instead, know how your product compares.
It's important to note that while this is the third step, many companies are now using educational content marketing to find prospects and build relationships with them throughout the entire buying process. They nurture their customers with useful education and information until they're ready to buy.
Once you have a qualified customer that you've built rapport with and educated, it will be natural for them to buy from you. However, before the purchase occurs there may be a moment of increasing agitation or wariness. At this point in time the customer will either purchase a product or turn the other way. If the customer begins to turn away, start asking questions to ensure that you have completed the three previous steps. Verify that you're talking to the qualified prospect. Make small talk to reassure yourself and the customer that there is rapport. Finally, ask questions to understand if there are gaps in the fulfillment of the previous three steps, and fill them.
Failing to go through all four steps with the buyer creates additional work and may even create backlash. You must take the time to ensure that your buyer is qualified, trusts you, and has all of their questions answered so that you can close the deal.
Zig Ziglar says, "Sales is nothing more than a transference of feeling. If you can make the customer feel the way you do about your product, then your customer will buy your product." Are customers buying your product or service? If not, which of the steps above should you consider putting more effort into?
In our last post we uncovered the mystery of a good marketing plan. We learned that every product or service has a life cycle. The life cycle is made up of four stages: introduction, growth, maturity, and the declining stage. By knowing which stage of the life cycle your product is in you can make educated decisions on when or where to spend your marketing dollars. As your business grows, it's likely that you'll need to hire a team to help you continue to grow. A good hiring strategy will not only save you time, but it will also save you money.
The process of interviewing and hiring the perfect candidate is not an easy task. It takes a lot of time and energy to proceed with the interview process. That's why it's important to ensure that you have a good hiring strategy in place. The right person will bring positive attitudes and infectious hard work to your business. When you find out that someone is a good fit before you hire them, you'll save yourself thousands of dollars in lost productivity and opportunity.
1. Pray—Ask God to send the person that should do the work that needs to get done.
2. Get Referrals—If you have a culture that we've been talking about in the last few posts, your best people will want their brightest friends to come work with them. Create a referral program to ensure that employees who refer great candidates are rewarded.
3. Pre-interview— Your first interview should be a 30 minute call to get to know the candidate. Spend 20 minutes listening and 10 minutes talking. Listen more than you talk, and keep the pre-interview to exactly 30 minutes. You can follow up later in another interview.
4. Review the Resume and Call References—Review the candidate's resume for formal training that's applicable to the position that you're hiring for. The resume is a great place to begin a conversation. Check references to be sure the candidates truly are who they say they are.
5. Use the DiSC Test—The discs personality test will assess relational intelligence, which is the ability to work well with others to achieve shared goals. The D stands for dominance. A dominant person will get work done, and is quick to act and make decisions. The I stands for influencer. Influencers are fun and outgoing, and are often concerned about their team members. The S stands for steady. Steady people are loyal, stable, love people, and are concerned about how everyone feels. They are great as team players, understanding, and will be with you until the end. The C stands for compliant. Compliant employees are very analytical and factual. They may seem rigid, but they have a high level of competency. Your organization needs some of every personality in order to be successful.
6. Like the Candidate—If you're going to be working everyday with the candidate, you need to like them. Don't force yourself to work with people you don't have anything in common with.
7. Look For Light—When you start talking about the position keep your eyes on the candidates. As the candidates start to talk, notice if their eyes light up. Does the mere thought of getting to do the work fire them up? If not, it's likely that all they want is a paycheck, and you won't be able to keep them happy.
8. Review Personal Mission Statement and Budget—Candidates should have a statement that shows how the position that they are accepting is part of their dream. They should also be able to pay their bills on the wage that they are making. Someone who can't pay their bills will be constantly worried about them and consequently will be very stressed out. They will be a drain on your business.
9. Review Compensation—As you progress in your interviews you'll go deeper into compensation and benefits. Candidates who start the interview process discussing money are looking for a job. Not an opportunity to do work that matters. You want the candidate who cares about the work.
10. Write Down Key Results—Write down what winning looks like in the open position before you post it. It should clearly communicate what the position entails.
11. Interview the Candidate's Spouse—Invite the candidate and the candidate's spouse to dinner. During the dinner you can solicit the spouse's input on whether or not they think their spouse is a good fit for the position. You can also assess whether or not the spouse is completely nuts. If that's the case, you should probably stay away from the candidate.
12. Implement a Probation Period—Ensure that you have a probation period where both the candidate and your company has time to observe and ensure a true fit. At this point you have little obligation to any candidate, and they have little obligation to you. After ninety days, the candidate is truly a team member and you should take working with them very seriously.
Implementing a good hiring strategy will ensure you get the best candidate for your open position. How many people are you hiring this year?
Marketing is more than selling and advertising. A good marketing plan is strategic and gets your product or service in front of your potential customers. When you first launch your business, your marketing plan may consist of just making sure that you can make payroll. However, eventually it should take its rightful place as a strategic planning action.
Introduction—The introduction stage is defined by the launch of your product. In this stage, you incur significant marketing expenses because you're trying to get the word out. Generally, sales are low, expenses are high, and profits are nowhere to be seen.
Growth—During the growth stage, your product begins to take off, your promotion costs decrease, cost of goods decrease, and your profits begin to rise.
Maturity—The maturity stage signifies the lowest cost of goods, lower production costs, high sales, and is usually the most profitable stage. In this stage, competitors began to enter the market.
Declining stage—The declining stage represents a decrease in sales and leftover inventory. You should be thinking about reinventing or revising your product during this stage.
Knowing which stage of the life cycle your products is in helps you make educated decisions on where to spend your marketing dollars. If you have to reinvent your product, or revise your product, you'll generally start the new life cycle with an introduction that overlaps the old cycle. Rarely will you have to start at the beginning again.
Passion—Your marketing message has to have energy and spark. There needs to be a hero willing to fight the villain of success. If you can't get excited about your message, then don't do it. You need passion that often involves sacrifice to make something big happen.
Activity—Marketing dreams that come true and increase sales are never random. It often requires a tremendous amount of promotion, advertising, and energy to create a successful outcome. Being timid and passive won't work in capitalism. You must make a bold proclamation so that others can take notice.
Scarcity—Creating the perception that your product is scarce will add tremendous marketing energy to your plan. Do this intentionally, but with integrity. When you can create perception that your product is rare, people will want to have it. It's natural.
Urgency—You should try to convey a sense of urgency because without it, desire loses its value. Establish a pricing structure that limits the number of items at a certain price.
Momentum—Scarcity, urgency, activity, and passion are four elements in a successful marketing plan. However, if your outcomes are limited to your best efforts, then your outcomes are too limited. Businesses are often in such a hurry to get to market that marketing strategy is often ignored. It cost a lot of money to make this type of mistake. Be thoughtful about your approach to your customers so that you will be given the opportunity to serve them with your product or service.
How's your strategy coming along?

Home Washington Political Breaking News
Sherrill Not Surprised House GOP Unable to Govern
Congresswoman expects to play a key role in moving bipartisan legislation this term
in Washington Political Breaking News
As Republicans get set to vote for a third day to select a new Speaker for the House and have not yet sworn in those elected to serve in the lower chamber, Mikie Sherrill is unsure of her current title.
"I'll have to check with the Parliamentarian but I suspect I'm still a Congresswoman-elect because I haven't been sworn in yet," offered Sherrill during a 20 minute press call on Jan. 4. "Things are in a little bit of disarray here. But that's OK. I have four kids so I enjoy bringing order to chaos. So I should do quite well in this Congress, from what I've seen so far."
While the call was originally set up to outline Sherrill's priorities for this year, the inability to seat the 118th Congress dominated due to the intra-party fighting of Republicans was the main topic of questioning.
No Coalition Talks
The congresswoman offered that there have not been serious efforts among Democrats and Republicans to get behind a coalition candidate as of Wednesday, just some one-off conversations. But Sherrill believes it would be up to GOP lawmakers to make the first move.
"They have to understand what they're willing to do to have Democrats come over," she said. "Kevin McCarthy…has already given up this store to the right wing. So why would we make him Speaker when he's already agreed to sort of the list of demands from the right?"
Looking for a Moderate
The Morris County lawmaker said that the type of candidate Democrats would work with is someone more moderate McCarthy while not inflaming the anger from the extreme GOP right such as Reps. Matt Gaetz (R-FL) and Lauren Boebert (R-CO).
"I think what would have to happen is someone would have to come forward and say, 'Look, here's how I'm going to govern. I think this makes sense for everyone, I think it's good for our country,'" she said. "Will you agree to support me if I do this, this and this?"
Sherrill offered that the Republican playbook is to put someone forward that they know will be unacceptable to the moderates and then come forward with a consensus candidate.
"I don't think that the moderates in the Republican Party would allow someone like a Jim Jordan to come forward," she opined.
Governing Issues
The inability of the Republicans to govern was expected by Sherrill, something Democratic lawmakers and even Republicans such as Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell took into account the past two years when they passed the budget at the end of the year and other major legislative initiatives.
"We saw this coming, this is not really surprising," she said. "There was a suspicion by many of us that Republicans would not be able to govern in the House. We took steps to make sure that we would serve the American people if they failed to govern."
The congresswoman said that both parties needed to work together with slim majorities in both the House and Senate—something the former Speaker Nancy Pelosi was "not really willing to do very much. McCarthy hasn't shown signs of doing that either."
Power to Party Extremes
"We are seeing the nation trying to balance us out here, trying to force us to work together, trying to force us to some equilibrium in our nation," Sherrill said. "Democrats had this really slim majority. The Republicans have a really slim majority, and the Senate was tied in the last Congress; this time it's still very, very tight. So the public's trying to push us, I think, towards more moderation, away from the extremes, towards solutions and getting stuff done."
But in Sherrill's eyes, the opposite has happened.
"As we develop these slim majorities, it gives more and more power to the extremes," she said.
Working Across the Aisle
Sherrill offered the antidote is choosing to work with the other side of the aisle, an area she believes she can have a great impact due to her assignments and relationships built over the last four years in office.
"There is a great pathway forward even though there is a Republican majority," the Montclair resident said, noting this is the first time since she will be in the minority. "In this moment, I sit on committees and bipartisan caucus where there is a lot of opportunities…and I will take advantage of it."
Sherrill said her priorities will be to ensure the legislation passed in the last term—such as the the Bipartisan Infrastructure Bill that includes money for the Gateway Tunnel project, the Inflation Reduction Act and the National Defense Authorization Act—continue to be enacted as well as moving forward with her bipartisan auto theft bill. She noted that New Jersey now ranks 22nd in federal money returning to the state (up from 48th), topping $1.37 for every dollar sent to Washington.
"I will continue to fight in Congress for the families I serve to have an even more affordable future in our state," she said.

REVIEW: THREE BILLBOARDS OUTSIDE EBBING, MISSOURI (2017)
"This didn't put an end to shit, you fucking retard; this is just the fucking start. Why don't you put that on your Good Morning Missouri fucking wake up broadcast, bitch?"
Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri tells the story of a woman whose daughter is raped and murdered by men who are still on the loose. Frustrated with the police's lack of attention to the case, Mildred erects 3 Billboards that causes chaos among the people in the town. When I first ventured to go see this film, I had no real desire to see it. I thought it was going to be another person being sarcastic and rude in order to accomplish…something. No, I had no desire to see this. But as I sat through the film, my personal opinion changed. This is by far one of the best films of 2017.
My opinion changed after I was deeply impacted by this woman's struggle on screen. Mildred, along with the many characters, had flaws, but they did not want help or sympathy in regard to said problems. Mildred, played by the talented Frances McDormond, presents herself as rough and tough character. But what touched me the most in the portrayal of this character was the sympathetic nature that is hidden deep down beyond the layers of sarcasm. In a scene with Woody Harrelson, both of these two hard headed characters ferociously bicker at one another. Seeing these two actors on screen is a treat for both your eyes and ears. During the heated conversation, something happens that causes Mildred's heart to be revealed. It's a simple scene, with not very many words spoken between them. But in the end this small scene rounds out both of these characters, softening them as the story progresses. As for Sam Rockwell's performance as the eccentric and short-tempered police officer, Dixon, well, is there even a character that Rockwell cannot excel at portraying. The film makes Rockwell do some crazy things and he executes each act with undeniable anger and humor.
The narrative is impactful in the fact that is shows so much, yet not enough of what these characters are doing. The ending of the film is a little opened ended, but it's no different from the rest of the film. The film's true message is to look at the personal progress of the characters on screen, as they learn not to fight anger with anger, but to fight injustice with love and compassion. The direction with said message of the film works all the way up into the last scene, making us wonder, but not being left clueless. Martin McDonaugh's direction is simplistic, but well done. McDonaugh doesn't get in the way of what is actors are trying to achieve on screen, but guides them in such a way that you know that his style of directing is an essential part of the process.
Three Billboards goes farther than most movies have this year. It resonates with our political climate, and is able to create a beautiful story with drama, humor, and heart.
Directed by Martin McDonagh
Starring, Frances McDormond, Woody Harrelson, and Sam Rockwell

This is the specially machined Johnny Joint rod end out of our CE-9102K front end housing kit. This joint's outer shell is machined to 1.795 inch o.d. with a flanged edge and is designed to be driven into the bushing bore on the gear case casting side of the TJ/LJ/XJ/MJ Dana 30 or 44 front end housings to replace the stock rubber bushing. Features a 7/16 inch Thru bolt hole and includes a 7/16 inch greasable bolt.


Kallaste Holiday Resort – a resort with a lively spirit where anyone is bound to acquire seminar materials!
Here, you find a genuine country school aura that makes you listen instead of hearing and look instead of seeing. In the depths of nature, you can escape the limitations of consciousness, leaving only crystal clear ideas.


This piste is really steep! The ground suddenly falls away almost vertically under your feet into the valley. At the same time, you gain respect for the sportsmen who fight down a forest of slalom poles once a year to the finish line at speeds of around 70km/h. This is the "Night Race", a classic in the calendar of the Alpine Ski World Cup.
In February 2013 (4th to 17th), the FIS Alpine Ski World Championships will take place at the Styrian ski resort of Schladming. More than 650 athletes from 70 nations will compete in 11 disciplines.
The organisers promise that it will be a "ski festival with heart". The infrastructure has been modernised and expanded everywhere ? from lifts to hotels. The public and private sectors invest a total of EUR 400 m into improvements in and around Schladming during the World Championships. In doing so, economic and ecological sustainability is of main importance. Schladming would ?like to be known as an international benchmark for "Green World Championships" and you can ?take a holiday from your car throughout ?the World Championships, as all ?"hot spots" are within walking distance and accessible by foot. The race slopes themselves are located around ?Planet Planai?, the newly built valleystation. This is also of advantage for ?normal? skiers, as 85% of the pistes are available for uninterrupted use during the World Championships.
The region scores equally high in culinary terms. In the mountains, the ski huts provide winter sports enthusiasts with a range of tasty options. And in the valley, restaurants treat guests with regional specialities.

'Madeline's Madeline': In This Acting Class, Dreams, Darkness and Dance Come Together
By Andrew Lapin
Published August 9, 2018 at 3:01 PM MDT
Madeline (Helena Howard, L) and Evangeline (Molly Parker, R) share a moment in <em>Madeline's Madeline. </em>
One of the first things actors learn is how to become highly suggestible: Take a cue from a director, a script, a parent, a memory or a dream, and use it to become someone else. Acting classes instruct on the fine art of removing that layer of yourself that says, "No, I shouldn't do this, it isn't me." Fail to break down those walls, and you aren't much of a performer; knock too many down, and you may lose yourself.
Madeline's Madeline, the third feature from writer-director Josephine Decker, follows a teenaged girl in one of these acting classes. But the film is also teaching us what it means to be a performer who is not yet a fully realized person — someone trying to learn suggestibility and independence at the same time. Those with knowledge of these spaces will find instant recognition in the empty stage's unreality — a place where anyone can scream out a suggestion, and force everyone else to fall in line.
In this world, despite her youth, Madeline is the star pupil: a gifted actor, particularly when she gets to inhabit nonhuman roles like cats and turtles. But the trouble starts when she has to play herself, and that unreality doesn't stay safely on the stage. Madeline has mental illness, and may or may not have had some psychotic episodes in her past, with her emotional triggers almost always delivered by her needy, quivering mother. Her acting teacher starts picking up on some of this unresolved tension, and ropes Madeline's mother into the troupe's upcoming experimental performance, determined to unlock the reservoirs of rage and uncertainty that lie underneath this girl's scrawny, frizzy-haired frame.
The film is anchored at every turn by newcomer Helena Howard's big, brash and brilliant lead performance. Born out of improv exercises between Howard and Decker, Madeline is front-and-center of every frame, both assured and volatile, quick to lash out and yet also easily manipulated. Her showdowns with her mother (played with brittle unease by Miranda July, the last person on Earth you'd expect to see as a humorless working mom) are stacked with unresolved tension; early on, Madeline sprints into her mom's car straight from a theater game, ducking her head down and yelling at her mom to drive. It's an invite of sorts to play along, but mom takes things way too seriously, panicking that someone is really after them, and you get a perfect feel for how stifling life in that household must be for someone of Madeline's talents and temperament.
This tension manifests itself in violent dreams, or at least you hope they're only dreams. Madeline discloses one, where she takes an iron to her mom's hand, to her beloved instructor Evangeline (Molly Parker). But actors are not psychologists, and so when Evangeline looks at this private moment she sees only an opportunity to improve her art, consequences be damned. Suddenly the entire production recenters around Madeline's relationship with her mother, and the other actors start wearing her floral sweaters and imitating her motions. What is performance, and what is just ... well, unhealthy? How about when Madeline, whose black father remains unseen, goes to dinner at Evangeline's house and discovers her instructor has a black husband, and what that might mean about her own lofty perch in the class? There's nothing like running away from one adult who's trying to shape you, only to find yourself being used by another.
Given that Madeline's Madeline comes out of a very precise, self-sustaining corner of the indie film world (Decker has been in Joe Swanberg's circle of collaborators for years, and co-lead July is one of our most prized hipster auteurs), there's a temptation to write it off as unserious, something meant only to speak to a small orbit of those in the know. But that would be a mistake. Like Decker's earlier two works Butter on the Latch and Thou Wast Mild and Lovely, the film finds new ways of exploring female desires and insecurities by detaching itself from linear storytelling and easy rationales. Madeline's growing self-awareness isn't always easy to make sense of, from moment to moment, and cinematographer Ashley Connor often doesn't seem to be capturing her actions and reactions so much as her brainwaves. That's OK. The film tracks the inside of its heroine's head more successfully than most.
If Decker and her actors really were making up most of this film as they went along, the way it sometimes feels, it speaks to the fruitfulness of their collaboration that the finished work feels fresh and invigorating without wasting our time. And anyway, there's at least one perfectly planned setpiece: The final sequence is a thrilling bit of mask-play and interpretative dance that doesn't have to be anything except what it is. It casts us into full make-believe alongside Madeline, who's fielding her latest acting cues from her own demons, and seems to finally find a home where they can all live in harmony.
