"To laugh often and love much; to win the respect of intellingent persons and the affection of children; to earn the approbation of honest citizens and endure the betrayal of false friends; to appreciate beauty; to find the best in others; to give of one's self; to leave the world a bit better, whether by a healthy child, a garden patch or a redeemed social condition; to have played and laughed with enthusiasm and sung with exultation; to know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived - this is to have succeeded." -- Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803-82)

OVACC - Ottawa Valley Aid for Chernobyl Children
Jun 29, 8:09am    (1 review)  for-kids  http://www.ovacc.ca/index.php?pr=Natasha
From the page: "Natasha first came to Canada when she was 7 years old. A small, thin child with red hair, wearing a dress that was too big, carrying a plastic shopping bag (her luggage) was our first impression. Our welcome gift to her was a large white teddy bear. She took it, hugged it tightly and said "Spaciba" (Thank you in Russian). We fell in love right away! "

Dear Twitter, Please Fix Your @s | Social Media Mom
Jun 25, 10:51am    (3 reviews)  internet  http://www.socialmediamom.com/2009/06/de...
From the page: "Then Twitter decided to allow people a choice of whether they wanted to see others @s or not. And some chose to see and comment on others @s and others preferred that @s stayed covered.

And still, all was good.

But then twitter decided to take away all choice. And allowed no one to see @s that didn't involve them.

And it was NOT good. And lots of people complained and wanted to show their @s."

From the page: "Currently, healthcare premiums and contributions (paid by you and your employer) are taken from your paycheck before taxes are deducted. If these health benefits are taxed, it's estimated you will lose between 9 and 14 percent of your take-home pay, depending on your household income and tax situation."
The Harte of Marketing Celebrates its One Year Anniversary | Harte Marketing...

Congratulations Beth Harte for the one year blogiversary of The Harte of Marketing!

From the page: "Last week marked the one-year anniversary for The Harte of Marketing and what a year it's been thanks to so many amazing people! When I first started THoM I really didn't think anyone would read it, let alone care about what I had to say in regards to marketing, PR and social media. With so many other well-established and great blogs out there I almost considered not blogging at all but, I hated Twitter at the time (imagine that?!) so microblogging was out. And, apparently, my thoughts are too verbose for 140-characters (i.e. I talk too much)."
How Authors Can Use Their Books as the Basis for an Internet Business |...

From the page: "Once you've done all the heavy lifting of creating a good book, don't stop there. Keep looking for how you can build on that basis.

And what if you have a fiction book? Yes, it isn't quite as easy as a nonfiction book to use as a basis for an online business, but we're writers - let's use our imagination to think of a possible scenario for this endeavor:

Let's say your novel, like my novel MRS. LIEUTENANT, takes place during the Vietnam War. There are many people alive today who are too young to have any knowledge about this war. What if you wrote ebooks about the war from the point of view of the people in the different countries involved in the fighting?"

Under-Capitalized, Without a Plan and Dead


From the page: "Building a business requires more than a dream and hard work. Both are necessary ingredients for achieving success. But without strategic, planned and disciplined growth, businesses usually fail to achieve their goals--assuming, of course, that they slow down along the way to create those goals. No matter the size of your business, keep in mind that it takes capital to grow. If you plan to use your savings, your business plan had better be on target to make all that money back plus a substantial return on your investment, assuming, of course, that you enjoy having a roof over your head and eating regular meals."

Why (Digital) Small Talk Matters. Really. | Marketing Profs Daily Fix...

From the page: "Social media is all about giving, engaging, connecting--and yes, small talk. But our typical corporate management style clashes with this. How can you fully engage with an individual when your total focus is on meeting "deliverables," adhering to processes and showing results?

Small talk is a great example. It's usually glossed over in most companies. Sure, we use it to break the ice in starting meetings and smooth over working relationships.But for the most part its value is far less than in the social media world, which is fueled by small talk."
