During his 8 years in office, Smithgall abused his power for political purposes by raiding his opponent's son's club, the Chameleon--I believe without a warrant. The raid turned up nothing, but some of the police knocked out the DJ and I believe there was a lawsuit. Bad idea, poorly executed. I support Rick Gray for Mayor.

For months, the high-pitched whine of low-HP, high mileage, gas-fueled small-form scooters has ripped through Lancaster at amazing speeds of at least 35 mph. No Vespas in this crew. Masked bikers, three in a row stopped at a light, revving 50cc's (at best). Sorry no pics--fast to capture with an iPhone when I'm unprepared.

They have a flat, low commission, and revenue has been relatively flat and low as well. So we talked through revenue goals and how to motivate sales people, and came up with a short-term plan that we can tweak down the road.

Today he said he said it's like business therapy--analyzing everything, figuring out both personal and company goals, developing a plan to get there, establishing metrics and accountability. I like the term.

The US cities and towns that lost the jobs were told they needed to repurpose http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/DiggingIn/~3/BAVRmHaJ_Os/jobs-and-trade.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (Charlie Crystle)0<div class="feedflare"> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/DiggingIn?a=BAVRmHaJ_Os:pHJ_piSSOts:yIl2AUoC8zA"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/DiggingIn?d=yIl2AUoC8zA" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/DiggingIn?a=BAVRmHaJ_Os:pHJ_piSSOts:63t7Ie-LG7Y"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/DiggingIn?d=63t7Ie-LG7Y" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/DiggingIn?a=BAVRmHaJ_Os:pHJ_piSSOts:F7zBnMyn0Lo"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/DiggingIn?i=BAVRmHaJ_Os:pHJ_piSSOts:F7zBnMyn0Lo" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/DiggingIn?a=BAVRmHaJ_Os:pHJ_piSSOts:7Q72WNTAKBA"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/DiggingIn?d=7Q72WNTAKBA" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/DiggingIn?a=BAVRmHaJ_Os:pHJ_piSSOts:V_sGLiPBpWU"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/DiggingIn?i=BAVRmHaJ_Os:pHJ_piSSOts:V_sGLiPBpWU" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/DiggingIn?a=BAVRmHaJ_Os:pHJ_piSSOts:qj6IDK7rITs"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/DiggingIn?d=qj6IDK7rITs" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/DiggingIn?a=BAVRmHaJ_Os:pHJ_piSSOts:gIN9vFwOqvQ"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/DiggingIn?i=BAVRmHaJ_Os:pHJ_piSSOts:gIN9vFwOqvQ" border="0"></img></a> </div><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/DiggingIn/~4/BAVRmHaJ_Os" height="1" width="1"/>http://charliecrystle.blogspot.com/2009/06/jobs-and-trade.html
