Hi, I'm Lori Rosenkopf. I'm the Vice Dean and Director of Wharton's Undergraduate Program and a professor in the management department. We're here today for the entrepreneurship specialization and my guest is Andy Rachleff. Who's the executive chairman at Wealthfront. He's a co-founder of Benchmark Capital. He's a trustee at the University of Pennsylvania. So a man of many hats. Andy as a entrepreneur, as an investor, can you talk generally about the role of venture creation in society? >> Well I'd like to think that it's a social good in that it provides capital for people to create new industries, and new businesses, and to therefore create a lot of new jobs. >> Maybe you can talk a little bit about your own personal impact, along those lines, in your many different roles. Have you ever tried to quantify it or set any goals for yourself around it? >> I think you get in a lot of trouble, when you start calculating your own returns or your own impact. I just hope that we've made an impact on the landscape here at Silicon Valley and Silicon Valley seems to have had a big impact nation wide. >> Let's talk about entrepreneurial opportunities and recognizing them. How did you see the opportunity for Wealthfront and once you saw it, what did you need to do to test it, to figure out if you had a good idea. Did you have to pivot along the way? >> Well, I'm a big believer that great ideas find you, you don't find them. I think that there's a tremendous misperception in the community at large that successful entrepreneurs sit in a room and try to figure out what it is they want to go build. Or that they look at a market, look for the problems and come up with a solution. That usually leads to very mundane outcomes. In fact, if you look at the most successful companies in Silicon Valley, what you'll find is they almost all resulted from an entrepreneur recognizing an inflection point in technology, which allowed them to build a new kind of product. And then the question was, what market cared about the product? So you start with the product and find the market. You don't start with the market and find the product, which is what most people think happens. Now it's not surprising because without change there isn't opportunity. And what's frustrating about this entire process is if you start with a product and look for a market the initial market that you think wants your product is seldom the one that actually does. And you have to pivot markets, you don't pivot products. So for me, I was sitting in a Penn endowment meeting one day, listening to a presentation from the investment team on how they're able to generate the tremendous returns that they do. And it struck me that they were doing it in a very antiquated way with spreadsheets. And that if we could implement what they do in software and take advantage of some new application programming interfaces that had been made available through brokerage firms, that it was possible to democratize access to sophisticated investment management. That traditionally the best investment products and services are only available to the very wealthy. But it struck me that through software we could actually take what tremendously sophisticated endowments like Penn do and deliver it to normal people. Now, over the years I had recruited a lot of people to my portfolio companies who had gone on to financial success, and they would often come to me for investment advice. The problem was, I could never tell them to do what I do, because I was in the unbelievably fortunate position to be able to afford access to the best investment products and services. And even with their financial success they still couldn't, which really struck me as wrong. So I was sitting in this room, the endowment committee meeting room, listening to this thinking God, this is a way to solve this problem and actually provide a social good. And it led me to want to start a business even though I had no desire to be an entrepreneur. But I felt like I needed to do it for the social good and over time, we had to pivot quite a bit until we found the business that actually worked. >> Was it similar when you founded Benchmark Capital? >> Not at all. >> Okay. >> Financial entrepreneuring, I think, is a very different thing. Because I had been in the venture capital business for a dozen years. I was fortunate to have a pretty good track record. I knew the investors in venture capital funds very well through their investment in my firm. And so starting a new firm wasn't nearly as difficult as starting Wealthfront, because I was doing exactly the same thing. It was almost as though just the deck chairs had been rearranged. >> Mm-hm. >> Now, if I tried to do it without a track record, then I think it would have been much, much more difficult. But I co-founded the firm with two other guys who had tremendous track records, one who had worked with me for many years. Another person who had been an entrepreneur that we had backed and then a fifth person who had an interesting new twist to what we were going to do. So it never seemed like an entrepreneurial endeavor, it just seemed inevitable. >> You're about people who you've worked with in the past and how important your networks are. You've mentored and advised so many people over your career. If you look back, who was the best mentor or advisor that you ever had and why? >> My best mentor was actually a classmate of mine from business school who I recruited to be my partner at the firm that preceded Benchmark Capital. His name is Bruce Dunlevie. And he has the best judgement of anyone I've ever met. And is the best ability to influence people of anyone I've ever met. And he's my exact opposite. [LAUGH] Which I think is really valuable in a relationship. I think that's true in my marriage, my wife and I are very different. She's had a tremendous impact on me. But watching the way that Bruce was able to influence people had an enormous impact on me and made me realize how much better I could be if I could influence in a way that didn't feel like there was a lot of overhead or push. And I can't tell you how much better that made me. How much more confident it made me in what I do. I owe a tremendous amount of my success to someone who's my peer in terms of age. He's only two years older than I. But he's the best mentor anyone could ever have. >> Let's talk a little bit about more established firms. Some people say that there's a phenomenon called intrapreneurship or entrepreneurial management that established firms can be innovative and entrepreneurial. In you experience is this so, why or why not? >> I wouldn't have had a living if large companies were entrepreneurial. [LAUGH] The reason that venture capital exits, is because it's so hard for large and successful companies to pursue new ideas. I think Clay Christiansen did an amazing job with his innovator's dilemma explaining the dynamics behind why it's so hard for large companies to innovate. And thankfully they don't so that I had the career that I did in venture capital. >> What qualities do you think make a good entrepreneur? You've dealt with so many over the years, you've been one. What qualities do you believe are most important? Well I can only speak to technology entrepreneurs, because that's the only area, with which I'm familiar. And I don't know whether or not it extends to other areas. But technology is very particular in that I believe, it's the quality of the insight that matters more than anything else. Remember, earlier I said that great companies are created as a result of an appreciation for an inflection point in technology that enables a new kind of product, and then you have to find a market. Well, you have to be able to recognize that inflection point a lot earlier than anybody else has, and they're not obvious. So what makes a tremendous entrepreneur is one, the ability, the technical expertise, and the command of their subject that allows them to recognize that inflection point well before anyone else has. And then the flexibility to be willing to try a number of different markets to figure out which market actually wants that product. You notice I didn't say anything about management skill because I don't think that has anything to do with it. >> Well, how important are people to the success of a venture? And hiring by the founders, the early team members, how important is that? What sorts of mistakes do you see teams making? >> Well, I'm a big believer that success is a function of the quality of a company's product market fit. If the dogs don't want to eat the dog food, it doesn't matter how capable you are as an executive. You're going to fail. Conversely, if the dogs want to eat the dog food, it doesn't matter how bad you are, you're going to succeed. And, one of the really shocking lessons that I learned, having started Wealthfront was that it's almost impossible to hire really good people between founding and product market fit. Because think about it, if you're a successful executive or someone who's successful in their career, then you're probably highly sought after. Why would you come to a company where you don't know whether or not they're going to succeed, when you can pick and choose the best opportunity for you? So, until you can prove product market fit you have to take what you can get. Every once in a while you're going to find a needle in a haystack if somebody turns out to be fantastic, but I think that's more luck than anything. Once you achieve the product market fit, then you can command a much higher quality of person to come join your company. >> How much do your personal networks or anyone's personal networks matter in this process, in terms of acquiring funding, talent, endorsements, inspiration? >> I think they help tremendously, but again, if I'm not getting traction no matter what my reputation, people aren't going to give me money and they're not going to come and join my company. So first and foremost, I have to get traction in the market. So reputation helps, it doesn't assure you of success. >> How about serial entrepreneurs? People who've done it before and do it again and do it again. Are they usually successful repeatedly? >> They're not usually successful to a large degree if they've already been successful. The odds of being successful in technology are really, really low and it's a function of having an amazing insight as I said earlier. Unfortunately once someone becomes really successful they usually think that the reason for their success was their skill and not their insight. So they think, I can do this again and I'll be just as successful. Well, if the idea isn't as good, it's seldom going to be as successful. Great example, Steve Jobs, people think of him as perhaps the greatest entrepreneur in the history of the United States. Well everyone forgets that he failed with his startup after Apple. Next computer was a complete and utter failure. Because he relied on his network and his skill, his management skill and entrepreneurial skill to succeed when he really didn't have a very compelling product. And so it's not about your network, it's not about what you've accomplished in the past, it's about the idea. And I can count on less than two hands, the number of entrepreneurs in technology who have built more than one company with an excess of 100 million of revenue. So yeah you can start little things that you can flip, but here in Silicon Valley, we don't care about those companies and we don't really value those companies. All that matters is building a great enterprise and changing an industry. >> How important are networks in the venture capital business? >> Networks in venture capital are imperative. Think about it, if you and I are of equal investment skill and equal judgement and you have a better network than I am, then in fact you're fishing in a better pond, you're going to catch a lot more fish. So you're going to do a lot better. So I would argue that perhaps one of the most important things to the success of a venture capitalist, is the quality of her network. And that's why venture capitalists try to choose people with backgrounds that will attract a really big network. One of the most common misperceptions about venture capital is that they hire people with operating backgrounds for their operating skill. Nothing could be further from the truth. You don't want people to exercise their operating skill because then you're not letting the entrepreneur make the decisions. That's the worse thing that could possibly happen. The reason venture capitalists often like to recruit people with operating skill, is that, if you were really successful in your career, your operating career, then the odds are that you were very highly recruited. Which built your network, people thought very highly of you. And also, it's highly likely that you were sought after for your advice. Because people would want to learn from you and how you were so successful. Well those are unbelievable proxies for network. And if you can bring that over with you, you're going to see on average, better opportunities, better entrepreneurs than I will, if I don't have that same kind of network.

St. Valentine, The Real Story – Church History
Derbie sat huddled in the corner of the room, her chin resting on her knee, she was hungry, thirsty, tired with a million and one thoughts going through her head at the same time. What were these guys up to?
Where had Jeje been moved to now and who the hell was that damn woman who had shot into the ceiling, bringing about an end to Derbie's outburst when Jeje was being taken?
Since the past few hours Jeje had been moved she'd begun some seriously deep thinking, she couldn't just sit by and let these guys get away with this, she had to do something. Usually she wasn't one to just lie around and take things sitting down but she'd had to because of Jeje's safety.
Now that she was sure Jeje had been moved out of the building she knew she had to act. She didn't think she was ready to die yet and passively for that matter.
She was too intelligent and crafty to be just sitting around and waiting for whatever to happen to her. She could do so much more, living a normal life for a few weeks had turned her into a softie, she had Ise to thank for that.
The old Derbie would have been planning an escape route since the minute she'd been abducted. She used to be a master strategist, but being with Ise, she'd put her old life aside for a while.
She thought about Ise for a while, he'd been on her mind for most of the time she'd been held captive, she was sure he was out of his mind with worry by now, having both she and Jeje taken away from him would be hell on him. She could almost imagine what he would be going through and felt sorry for him.
She almost smiled at the Irony of it, she was the one who'd been kidnapped but she was feeling sorry for someone else who was out there, she couldn't help it, he wasn't just anyone, he was Ise, the love of her life. He was so obsessive compulsive about everything, she knew exactly how he would be feeling.
She had to put him out of that misery and do something instead of sitting and waiting. She knew from his end he will do all he could to find them but she had to help also but what to do?
Thinking for a few more minutes, she decided that she deserved some sort of information as to why she was being kept here and why Jeje had been taken away and something told her that, her captor, the woman whom she'd seen quite a lot of, the one who seemed to be calling the shots might just be willing to divulge some information. Women and their big mouths.
If the woman refused to talk, she could entice her with something. She still had that expensive wristwatch on her, tucked securely underneath her weave sometime during the drive to where she was now being held, on the day she had been abducted. It could be used as a bargaining chip, she thought.
"Oh my goodness!" She almost screamed aloud as realisation dawned. What the hell had been wrong with her? She'd not been thinking at all, she'd carried the key to her release in her hands all this while and she'd been acting like an helpless sheep. She'd definitely lost her touch "Ise Williams, what did you do to me?" she wondered briefly.
Within a few minutes, she had an idea what needed to be done and knew how she would go about it. Whoever said there was a silver lining behind every cloud definitely had a point, the Cartier wristwatch might actually save her.
"Hey! Hey!" She began to call out, hoping to God that this would work.
Ise sat in his study, deep in thought. He'd just entertained a not so cordial visit from the Inspector General of police himself. He had chastised him on negotiating with kidnappers and keeping the police out of the loop. Ise had lost his temper and had talked back quite disrespectfully to him, giving him a lecture on keeping information safe and secure.
He told him since someone in the police had let it slip that a woman was involved in the abduction, he decided to keep them out of it because he couldn't trust them. Not to leak valuable information.
The Inspector had gone on to deny the information l
Flowers, candy, red hearts and romance. That's what Valentine's day is all about, right? Well, maybe not.
The origin of this holiday for the expression of love really isn't romantic at all — at least not in the traditional sense. Father Frank O'Gara of Whitefriars Street Church in Dublin, Ireland, tells the real story of the man behind the holiday — St. Valentine.
"He was a Roman Priest at a time when there was an emperor called Claudias who persecuted the church at that particular time," Father O'Gara explains. " He also had an edict that prohibited the marriage of young people. This was based on the hypothesis that unmarried soldiers fought better than married soldiers because married soldiers might be afraid of what might happen to them or their wives or families if they died."
"I think we must bear in mind that it was a very permissive society in which Valentine lived," says Father O'Gara. "Polygamy would have been much more popular than just one woman and one man living together. And yet some of them seemed to be attracted to Christian faith. But obviously the church thought that marriage was very sacred between one man and one woman for their life and that it was to be encouraged. And so it immediately presented the problem to the Christian church of what to do about this."
"The idea of encouraging them to marry within the Christian church was what Valentine was about. And he secretly married them because of the edict."
Valentine was eventually caught, imprisoned and tortured for performing marriage ceremonies against command of Emperor Claudius the second. There are legends surrounding Valentine's actions while in prison.
"One of the men who was to judge him in line with the Roman law at the time was a man called Asterius, whose daughter was blind. He was supposed to have prayed with and healed the young girl with such astonishing effect that Asterius himself became Christian as a result."
In the year 269 AD, Valentine was sentenced to a three part execution of a beating, stoning, and finally decapitation all because of his stand for Christian marriage. The story goes that the last words he wrote were in a note to Asterius' daughter. He inspired today's romantic missives by signing it, "from your Valentine."
"What Valentine means to me as a priest," explains Father O'Gara, "is that there comes a time where you have to lay your life upon the line for what you believe. And with the power of the Holy Spirit we can do that — even to the point of death."
Valentine's martyrdom has not gone unnoticed by the general public. In fact, Whitefriars Street Church is one of three churches that claim to house the remains of Valentine. Today, many people make the pilgrimage to the church to honor the courage and memory of this Christian saint.
"Valentine has come to be known as the patron saint of lovers. Before you enter into a Christian marriage you want some sense of God in your life — some great need of God in your life. And we know, particularly in the modern world, many people are meeting God through his Son, Jesus Christ."
"If Valentine were here today, he would say to married couples that there comes a time where you're going to have to suffer. It's not going to be easy to maintain your commitment and your vows in marriage. Don't be surprised if the 'gushing' love that you have for someone changes to something less "gushing" but maybe much more mature. And the question is, is that young person ready for that?"
"So on the day of the marriage they have to take that into context," Father O'Gara says. "Love — human love and sexuality is wonderful, and blessed by God — but also the shadow of the cross. That's what Valentine means to me."

Are you thinking too small to succeed big?
By Michael on May 7, 2021 in Blog
The U.S. elections are over now, but the impact they had on many people still resonates strongly. Thinking I might like to revisit a U.S. show about the White House called 'The West Wing', I found it on Netflix and started binging.
The West Wing was a serial political drama series that ran from 1999 to 2006 and it enjoyed a large, enthusiastic audience.
The funny thing is, the #2 actor on the show, Rob Lowe, doesn't appear in many of season 4's episodes. And by season 5 he's gone. Why did he leave?
It's rumored that he was disappointed the network wouldn't raise his salary. It seems the $75,000 per episode they were paying him wasn't enough to hold his interest.
And if you think that was a lot of money… 15 years ago, Martin Sheen the lead actor was earning $300,000 per episode.
I bring this up for one reason: Are you possibly thinking too small?
I realize it's good to have realistic goals that are achievable. But if your goal is, for example, another $1,000 per month, what would happen if you make a second goal to be earning $1,000 per week? And then $1,000 per day?
Odds are you are providing as much value to your customers as actors provide to their audience. In fact, if you are teaching new skills then you are providing more value than someone who merely entertains. You're just not doing it at the same scale… yet.
Please realize that you are indeed worth more than you realize. Think of this as permission to raise your goals considerably, and take the action needed to get there.

For the cartoon character, see The Outbursts of Everett True.
Everett True (born Jeremy Andrew Thackray 21 April 1961) is an English music journalist and musician, who grew up in Chelmsford, Essex. He became interested in rock music after hearing The Residents, and formed a band with school friends. He has written and recorded as The Legend!
In 1982, he went to a gig by The Laughing Apple and met the group's lead singer Alan McGee. According to McGee: "there used to be this guy who'd stand at the front of all the gigs and dance disjointedly". They became friends and when McGee started the Communication Blur club, he offered Thackray the role of compėre, stating that Thackray "was the most un-enigmatic, boring, kindest, shyest person you could ever meet – and it just appealed to my sense of humour to make him compère." He was originally billed as "the legendary Jerry Thackray", eventually shortened to simply "The Legend". McGee also offered him a column in his new fanzine, also called Communication Blur, but Thackray left after two issues, because he objected to McGee's proposal to put a flexidisc of The Smiths on the front cover. He instead started his own zine, The Legend!, under which name he recorded the single "73 in 83", the first to be released by McGee's Creation Records. In 1984, he released a second single, "Legend Destroys the Blues", but his performing career did not take off. He puts this down to the fact that he "didn't like to perform a song more than once", although he has continued to make occasional appearances.

Fong Sai-yuk II, also known as The Legend II and The Legend of Fong Sai-yuk II, is a 1993 Hong Kong martial arts comedy film directed by Corey Yuen, and also produced by and starring Jet Li as Chinese folk hero Fong Sai-yuk. The film is a sequel to Fong Sai-yuk, which was released earlier in the same year. Two former Miss Hong Kong Pageant winners, Michelle Reis and Amy Kwok, portrayed Fong Sai-yuk's wives.
Fong Sai-yuk and his wife, Ting-ting, are now full-fledged members of the Red Flower Society, which is led by Fong's godfather, Chan Ka-lok, who intends to groom Fong to become his successor. Chan's deputy, the ruthless Yu Chun-hoi, stands in Fong's way and tries to harm him. The society's members are unaware that Chan is actually the younger brother of the Qianlong Emperor, and might renounce their loyalty to him if they discover his true identity. Meanwhile, some Japanese rōnin find evidence of Chan's background and attempt to pass it to the Qianlong Emperor.
Chan sends Fong to intercept the rōnin and retrieve the evidence, but Fong is distracted by a damsel in distress and focuses on rescuing her instead. At a critical moment, when Fong is almost killed by the rōnin, his mother, Miu Tsui-fa, shows up and saves him. Despite so, the rōnin get away and pass the evidence to Suen Si-ngai, the Viceroy of Guangdong province. The woman whom Fong rescued earlier is Suen On-yee, the viceroy's daughter. Chan plans for Fong to enter a martial arts contest to win On-yee's hand in marriage and use the opportunity to steal the evidence from the viceroy. On-yee has already fallen in love with Fong and marries him for real, much to Ting-ting's unhappiness. However, the viceroy is aware of Fong's true intention so he sets a trap for Fong. On-yee manages to persuade her father to release Fong by threatening to commit suicide.

Everybody needs to be cool
If you´re not, you can't take any girl for you
You are the only man in the world
Show who is the boss, and prove that you deserve
Those things must go on
It´s time to go
All those girls want to be a man
Move your gun and retire their hands
Just let your third leg show the way
Save the world, it can´t be same
Everybody, take your clothes of now
Show your body, 'cause the One has come

If successful, Greenway could pave the way for similar installations in all kinds of buildings, including future condo and multifamily projects. The turbines grab wind from all directions and can start generating electricity in as low as 11.1 mph winds, according to Architect Magazine.
Helix S594 is the aluminum turbine used in this structure and it retails for about $16,000. S594 can produce up to 4.5 kW of power, according to the manufacturer, depending on myriad factors, including, without limitation, wind conditions and siting.
Each turbine measures 16'x4′ and weighs approximately 1,330 pounds. A steel support tube, steel base plate, and second steel support tube brace each turbine to the chamfered, windy corner of Greenway Self Park.

Some facts about raccoons
The dangers raccoons pose
Raccoons are quite dangerous animals, especially when it comes to poultry, therefore if you are dealing with their presence around your property, you might want to check out some reviews of raccoon traps as well. Besides being known among chicken owners as a real threat, raccoons are also adaptable animals that can use urban areas as habitat without too much effort.
Things such as fruits, nut trees, easily accessible bins, and farm animals can get their attention since they are favored food sources. You should also keep in mind that even though these wild animals prefer nuts and fruits, their diet also includes worms, insects, and other animals as well. That's why chickens and other similar animals are exposed to this threat.
In the following lines, we'll take a closer look at what you should know in order to prevent these animals from hurting your chickens. However, before that, it's good to know a bit more about raccoons in order to understand them and their behavior.
On average, a raccoon is around 32 inches long, including its tail, and stands at a weight that usually ranges between 11 and 18 pounds. Of course, male raccoons tend to be larger than females, while their fur comes in colors such as brownish black or grizzled gray. They are mostly known for their black-ringed tail and the distinctive black bandit-like coloration of their face.
Since they are native to North and South America, raccoons are largely found across the United States, as well as in Southern Canada or Northern Argentina. The increased agricultural activity in Canada has made them expand their range on that territory, which means that their impact might widen as well.
As it happened with many other types of animals throughout history, raccoons have made their way into Europe and Asia as well. Germany hosts the largest population on the old continent, but neighboring countries have reported sightings as well. As for the territory and conditions they usually prefer, these include lower elevations since these animals are not fans of harsh winter conditions.
On the other hand, the fact that they are so adaptable has made raccoons extend their range toward such areas that might not be as friendly, but they provide the necessary resources for the species to survive.
Before saying anything else, it's important to acknowledge that raccoons are very intelligent predators. They are able to climb walls, fences, and even dig their way underneath various barriers in order to get access to food, particularly chickens. Moreover, they are very skilled with their paws that are used in order to open latches and reach through wire fencing.
That's why chicken coops are not always as effective as they need to be if a raccoon sets its mind on getting inside. Even more important is the fact that you need to continuously monitor and improve elements that secure the coop since these animals are known for taking advantage of any kind of flaw, even a minor one, to get to the chickens.
In terms of the way they attack, raccoons usually bite a chicken's head or the upper area around the neck. It's true that we're getting into some unpleasant details here, but it's important to be aware of how these animals act since you might need to recognize an attack and determine whether it was caused by them or not.
In the case of chickens, once a raccoon attacks, the breast and crop may get torn and then eaten. The bad news is that several kills can take place in a single night raid. The chickens might be either killed on site or dragged away at a rather short distance. If you notice that chickens are missing, this might explain what happened.
According to some reports, raccoons have been the ones responsible for completely eliminating populations of nesting waterfowl in certain areas. This fact allows you to see that they are very effective when it comes to catching birds. Even if a single raccoon is around, it can devastate a flock of chickens in a short amount of time.
Moreover, if it gets inside the chicken house, it can both kill the birds and eat their eggs, which makes the damages even more significant. Since these are intelligent animals, they will know whether a certain chicken house provides easy access to food, so they will return again and again.
Of course, you might be very interested in knowing how you can prevent the presence of raccoons on your property. Besides placing traps, there are several other measures you can take to ensure that these animals won't be tempted to come around your flock of chickens, or at least be less tempted to do so.
Raccoons, of course, like having access to water and food, which means that you shouldn't leave anything around the house that might attract them and even help them take note of the chickens you have. Such things include pet food dishes, garbage bins without lids, or chicken running around the yard during the night.
Make sure that your trash bins are always kept closed and that your chickens are securely enclosed in a coop once the evening comes. Furthermore, since raccoons are skilled at using their paws to unlock things, you will need to add safety measures around the coop. You can find raccoon-proof latches in specialized stores with which you can close the coop's windows.
Placing paving slabs or using buried wire mesh around the perimeter is another excellent idea since they can also dig their way into an enclosed space. Moreover, hardware cloth can be fitted as well around the run in order to stop these predators from reaching through a fence and grabbing a chicken.
According to experienced chicken owners, it's a good idea to use large screws and washers on the window frames in order to fit hardware cloth, since raccoons can rip staples out quite easily. Unfortunately, your chickens are not completely safe during daylight either.
Even though raccoons are nocturnal animals, they are now adapted to urban areas and got used to human activity. That's why in many instances they can get surprisingly bold and plan otherwise unexpected attacks.
You can also look for ways to make your property unattractive to raccoons. Besides storing any kind of potential food away as safely as possible, you can also use other methods to keep them at bay. Some that have proven successful are unpleasant odors, loud noises, and flashing lights.
If you don't want to turn your yard into a club, you can also keep a well-trained dog on your property. However, you should be careful in this case, since raccoons have been known to attack dogs when trapped, and some of them may carry rabies.
Even though they are unlikely to kill a dog or a cat, some rare cases have been reported, so you need to make sure that any dog guarding your property is well-trained to protect itself as well. As for killing raccoons, you should know that even though this is permitted in most areas in the United States, transporting or relocating these animals is often illegal.
You should check with the local authorities to see what is exactly allowed and what isn't in the specific area you live in.


Our Baja collection is made in the most intricate rustic design. The distressed finish gives a welcoming feel, while keeping with the high standards of Camaflexi and transforming any room into a real masterpiece.
Rustic furniture surfaces are rarely smooth and can appear weathered or distressed. It retains much of its natural wood characteristics even after it has been shaped into a bed or other piece of furniture. This may seem simple at first, but it is surprisingly complex in its design. The cabin-style wood is warm and inviting, with the distressed wood evoking homey-feelings as if the house and everything in it has been around for ages.
While rustic may have once been old and hand-made furniture, a new contemporary rustic style is now on the market in a fresh look with light colors, produced in a factory. This is what our Baja line is. With three fresh natural colors, all made with distressed pine wood, you can find the perfect one for your home. Solid pine wood is the most ideal material to apply distressing to. We are pleased to offer you our Baja line, created in the most ideal way, sturdy and durable, using 100% solid pine wood and a beautiful distressed finish. Concerned for the environment, all Baja furniture is eco-friendly and crafted from solid pine wood sourced from renewable pine plantations.
The Baja Platform Bed by Camaflexi is built with our unique fully slated mattress foundation with three center supports, so there is no need for a box spring. With the addition of the latest Baja nightstands, chests and dressers, you can now fully furnish your bedroom in a most gorgeous countryside look. With Baja you will enjoy the perfect balance of sophistication and warmth in your bedroom!
Distance between floor and bed rail: 8.2"
Distance from top of slat foundation to top of headboard: 37.7"
Distance from top of slat foundation to top of bed rail: 4.5"
Distance of top of slat foundation to top of footboard: 4.5"
The finish on the wood is just so beautiful. Instructions are quite straight forward. It took me and my friend about two hours to assemble it. I would definitely recommend this frame, very sturdy and good quality.


A blockchain application for the "attention economy", which treats human attention span as a scarce economy, WildSpark promises to allow users to send the blockchain's native digital token, AMP, to their favorite content creators. Users can also team up on content they like in a profit-sharing model to get that particular content seen, and shared some more.
WildSpark is the first publicly available product that makes use of the 'AMP', Synereo's digital currency. "WildSpark addresses the fact that content and its creators are bound by the monetization methods and strict guidelines mandated by a few large mega-corporations," McCutcheon said.
Named a "Cool Blockchain Vendor" by technology research firm Gartner, Synereo will release the beta version of 'WildSpark' on June 30. It opened registration for early access to WildSpark at http://WildSpark.me on June 19.
In Early April, one week after announcing WildSpark under its former name, Synereo gave a development update.

Many of our clients first experience hypnosis through tapes, CDs, MP3s or YouTube videos, and often have questions about the advantages of experiencing a live session. In this article, we'd like to address some of the benefits of live sessions.
First, there is no magical "transfer of energy" that occurs between a hypnotist and a client that requires them to be in the same room. Hypnosis occurs through carefully selected and well-spoken words, which can be recorded and played back in high fidelity, especially with today's technology. That isn't the reason we recommend live sessions.
One of the biggest benefits of live sessions is that they're tailored to your requirements. The recordings that you find on the Internet take a "one size fits all" approach, which can sometimes feels like "one size fits nobody." With a tailored approach, we can speak directly to your specific needs, goals, history, motivations and challenges. That kind of individualization ensures that we don't suggest anything that's irrelevant to you, which can be jarring, and that we can address your specific needs without omitting anything important.
Another huge benefit of live hypnosis sessions is that they can be a dialogue, rather than a monologue. Contrary to popular belief, you aren't always expected to be passive during a hypnosis session. A dialogue that goes back and forth between you and the hypnotist allows them to incorporate your real-time feedback into the session. That opens up a wide array of techniques other than direct suggestion.
In addition, with a live session, we can attend to your responses and adjust course appropriately. For example, in the unusual event that you react badly to a process or a specific suggestion, we will notice immediately, and pull you out of it. A recording isn't able to do that.
Finally, clients usually feel more attentive during a live session, and that makes it easier to become absorbed in the process. It's similar to the experience of watching live theatre rather than a movie, or a stand-up comedy show rather than a television special. When somebody is directly in front of you, speaking directly to you, it is more difficult to tune them out.
So what are the benefits of recordings? Besides the cost, one of the biggest benefits is that recordings can be used repeatedly. Another benefit to recordings is that mistakes (pauses, coughs, misspoken words, etc.) are typically edited out — although these minor bumps in the road are rarely a problem during live sessions either. A final benefit is that hypnosis recordings are easier to fit into a busy schedule, since they can be used on a subway ride or before going to sleep.
In summary, there's a place for both recordings and live sessions. At The Morpheus Clinic for Hypnosis, we usually begin with live sessions, so that we can make sure you're responding to hypnosis appropriately and so that we can get to know you a little better. Then, if you want a recording, we typically record it toward the end of your program, so that you have a reminder of your journey to take home with you and keep for life.
Please note that we only have one room that's set up for recordings. If you require a recording at any point during your program, please ask to be booked with Luke.
