Has Tom Manion Learned From His Masters?
2008-07-02 18:56:00 According to this story in the Bucks County Courier Times, the Republican (!) mayor of Riegelsville, PA has some issues with a fundraiser conducted for Tom Manion, the Repug challenger against Patrick Murphy for the PA-08 U.S. House seat...According to the letter, originally filed by Tom Myers of Riegelsville on June 19, a fundraising event that was described as a ?champagne reception? for Manion's campaign was held at Worth & Company Inc. in Pipersville March 25.It's illegal for corporations to make political contributions.

Under federal campaign finance law, corporations may only use employees to work at fundraising events if payment for those...

Things learned in life the hardway
2008-05-30 12:40:00 Portion of this content is from forwarded mails which i recieved and some things are from my own experience.I am posting the things which i felt appropriate.Don't compare yourself with any one in this world.If you compare, you are insulting yourself.No one will manufacture a lock without a key.Similarly God won't give problems without solutions.Life laughs at you when you are unhappy...Life smiles at you when you are happy...Life salutes you when you make others happy...Every successful person has a painful story.Every painful story has a successful ending.Accept the pain and get ready for success.Easy is to judge the mistakes of others.Difficult is to recognize our own mistakes.It is easier to protect your feet with slippers than to cover the earth with carpet.No one can go back and change a bad beginningBut anyone can start now and create a successful ending.If a problem can be solved, no need to worry about it.If a problem cannot be solved what is the use of worrying?If you mis...

4 Compassionate Teachings Learned From Vesak Day
2008-05-19 10:04:00 The significance of Vesak lies with the Buddha and his universal peace message to mankind. In most Buddhist temples all over the world, believers will gather to remember Prince Siddhatha. About 2,550 years ago, Prince Siddhatha was born in Lumbini, India during a full moon in the month of Vesak.This wisdom and light that flashed and radiated under the historic Bodhi Tree at Buddha Gaya in the district of Bihar in Northern India, more than 2500 years ago, is of great significance to human destiny.

Daimler CEO says lesson was learned in Chrysler ownership
2008-05-17 00:01:00 Daimler CEO says lesson was learned in Chrysler ownership There is no shortage of critics ready and willing to share their opinion why the DaimlerChrysler union was doomed to fail, but the 1998 merger did bring some interesting products Stateside, including the Sprinter Cargo Van and diesel-powered Jeep Grand Cherokee. Friday reports have the famous Dr. Z from the automaker's TV ads, or Dieter Zetsche, Daimler CEO more formally, admitting the partnership "couldn't achieve global integration." The CEO spoke at the St. Gallen Symposium in Switzerland today, which was held under the "Global Capitalism, Local Values" theme, according to Automotive News. Zetsche said that while the merger made theoretical sense, the reality was much different. "[Global integration] was at odds with the image of our brands, the preferences of our customers, and many other success factors — all of which were far more diverse and fragmented," he said. Zetsche ...

Wisdom was not at the top of the graduate school mountain, but there in the sand pile at school.These are the things I learned:Share everything.Play fair.Don't hit people.Put things back where you found them.Clean up your own mess.Don't take things that aren't yours.Say you're sorry when you hurt somebody.Wash your hands before you eat.Flush.Warm cookies and cold milk are good for you.Live a balanced life - learn some and think some and draw and paint and sing and dance and play and work every day some.Take a nap every afternoon.When you go out in the world, watch out for traffic, hold hands and stick together.Be aware of wonder.

Real Estate Lessons Learned Or Lost?
2008-05-07 18:02:00 Will we ever learn? Doesn’t look like it. You’d think what with all that has gone down with the subprime mortgage/credit mess, the real estate industry (or, at least, segments of it) would be in the forefront of a much needed reform movement. Instead, there seems to be an almost pathological desire to return to “normal” as soon as possible. While it is certainly true that people all over the country are finding it difficult to obtain mortgages–even people with good credit ratings, hardly a week goes by when I don’t read a newspaper ad or hear a radio commercial that tells would-be home buyers that they can get a mortgage even with rotten credit, the very thing that go us into this ordeal in the first place! Since most people with bad credit are finding it nearly impossible to get reasonable mortgages, it is baffling about why some places are advertising that they can? I don’t have a good theory on what they might be up to and would be intere...

Everything I need to know in life, I learned from Captain America
2008-05-07 01:19:00 I saw the new movie Ironman over the weekend, and it was spectacular! From the previews I had seen, I was very excited to see it, and I already thought it was going to be super cool, but it greatly exceeded my expectations. It had a great story, great special effects, lots of action, some very humorous moments throughout, and it was all about one of my favorite topics -- superheroes! Seeing Ironman -- coupled with the fact that my unwritten topic list already included a column about kids and comic books -- inspired me to write today's Mr. Teacher column over on education.com. I could talk for hours about comic books and superheroes, but I kept the focus of this column on the benefits kids can obtain by reading comic books. Check it out, and until later, Excelsior!! Read all about Jack Woodson and his first year as a teacher in Learn Me Good, available at Amazon.com! Start with a preview here.

Thursday Thirteen - Things I learned from my dentist
2008-05-01 02:49:00 Disclaimer: These are opinions and stories offered by my dentist. Do your own research before making any decisions.Always brush with a soft or extra soft bristle brush. You clean wood floors with a soft broom and not sandpaper, right?Medium and hard toothbrushes should be banned like cigarettes. He thinks that the toothbrush industry keeps making them because of market demand, regardless of the evidence that proves that they damage teeth. The only thing they are good for are cleaning your car wheels.Just because the masses think something is popular doesn't mean they are right. This is why Google is bad. (He has a lot of other internet conspiracy theories as well).The Philips Sonicare toothbrush was developed by mimicking ultrasonic dental tools that are used by professionals, but they require proper technique that most people don't use.

A Lesson Learned: Persistent Prayer
2008-04-29 07:01:00 This past weekend I was able to attend a ladies retreat with five other ladies from our church. We all had a good time and it was great getting to know the other ladies better. All of us that attended were married except for one lady. By the time we came home on Saturday, we were all ready to see our husbands again and those that had children were ready to see their kids.We were in an active cabin. That was the camps way of saying that we were in a loud, noisy, crazy, etc cabin since the other cabin was quiet. We were in the right cabin though since we didn?t go to bed until very early in the morning both nights.On Thursday night after the session they divided us all up into eight different groups. The way we were divided made it rare for us to end up with someone from our church and that was the point. While getting to know the other ladies that were in our groups, we had to decorate a paper flower in a mosaic pattern. It was a lot of fun.Friday afternoon they did a craft. The cra...

Ray Charles learned from his mama
2008-04-27 15:00:00 We all know that owning, controlling and trading in intellectual property (IP) can create wealth. Losing ownership and control, or not trading IP, can lose wealth. Industry case studies bring these truths to life. One for the music industry (http://www.businessweek.com/sm-allbiz/content/apr2008/sb200804-21_919951.htm?chan=search) was in BusinessWeek last week. It reports US census data showing one in four U.S. record stores around in 2002 was gone by 2005, a net loss of 1,900 stores. It points at digital retailer, iTunes, which boasts 6 million songs. Personal case studies make the truths register. We did it in Music Business Entrepreneurship: Eulogy for James Brown (ip-tech-e-biz/music-business-e-ntrepreneurship-eulogy-for-jame-s-7.html). We do it now for Brown's predecessor, and fellow Georgian, Ray Charles (1930-2004).

Lesson Learned
2008-04-23 11:10:00 "Surrender all" that's the way the song goes. "I surrender all". Every once in a while, especially when I least expect it, God will reveal to me a weakness, sin or perhaps a control issue in my life. He rarely lets me know these things through a word or dream. It is usually in a round about way that I find fascinating.As many of you know, my mother broke her hip about five weeks ago. She then had to be put into a nursing home and last week developed heart and kidney failure and pneumonia. She continues to be very ill and my brother, Only in His Service, and I are there most of the time. Especially, my brother.She is not eating very well. Hardly at all. So, my brother and I have taken it upon ourselves to be there every meal and try to get her to eat. While there I pray and ask God questions. He has been very slow to answer my questions.I will look at my mother and wonder why she is holding on so long. I have seen, over the years, people give up on life or make a decision...
