| The BUZZARD
If you put a buzzard in a pen that is 6 feet by 8 feet and is entirely open at the top, the bird, in spite of its ability to fly, will be an absolute prisoner. The reason is that a buzzard always begins a flight from the ground with a run of 10 to 12 feet. Without space to run, as is its habit, it will not even attempt to fly, but will remain a prisoner for life in a small jail with no top. |

ACCOUNTING POLICE: DO THEY EXIST?
| |
| Who created accounting principles? Who sets and revises accounting standards? What if you don’t follow all the rules, do you go to jail? Is there an accounting police force that investigates and arrests violators? It would seem that there must be some regulatory force to make sure that providers of financial statements conform to the rules. There is, up to a point, and this article discusses how it works: |

EMAIL RES-CUE
| |
| For someone who loves in-person and voice contact, I’m baffled by how much time I spend sending and responding to emails. It’s so easy to use email as the default for doing business, for building relationships (and now even email is being slowly usurped by social media software). But I stand resolute in my campaign to make sure we don’t trade humanity for technology. Having been both perpetrator and victim of emails gone bad, I offer some ways to bail yourself out of the email jail, and match the right message with the right medium. |

Leaders Are Communicators
| |
| There is an old saying, “That which can be misunderstood will be misunderstood.” This resolution, passed by the Board of Councilmen in Canton, Mississippi, in the mid-1800s brings that into focus. “Number one: Resolved by this Council that we build a new jail. Number two: Resolved that the new jail be built out of the materials of the old jail. Resolved that the old jail be used until the new jail is finished.” |

Leadership and the Media
| |
| Why do so many people follow Charlie Sheen? So what if Lindsey Lohan goes to jail? Why do we care what happened to Tiger Woods? Do we care if the same thing had happened to a next door neighbor? What is the reason we salivate and wait for the next bit of news about celebrities and their private lives?
Maybe we are just getting ready to accept the fact that it is an illusion to want to separate who we are at home from who we are at work from who we are in the media from who we are at a party from who we are at the gym from who we are......get the point. |

Email Marketing Made Easy #11 - Avoiding Spam
| |
| The importance of building an opt-in list instead of spamming (a.k.a., using unsolicited commercial email) is something that I can never stress enough. You must avoid it at all costs! That and more can kill your business! NEVER use your autoresponder for spamming in any way. You can lose your account, pay fines, get locked out from your ISP, lose your website and, above all, get jail time. It's a serious matter that must never be overlooked. |
