Like a snail mail letter, however, spelling, grammar, punctuation, and proper etiquette are important in an email message. Let's look at some guidelines: 1. Most Important - the correct way to send a Forward: Use Bcc. Bcc is short for Blind Carbon Copy. Bcc recipients will receive a copy of the message, but their email addresses do not show up in the email envelope. Bcc recipients are invisible to each other. Only recipients in the To: or Cc: recipients show up in the envelope. To protect every recipient's privacy, put your email address in the To: box, and put everyone else in the Bcc: box. 2. Eliminate ALL CAPS. It is considered to be SHOUTING and rude. 3. Don't request delivery or read receipts. If you want to make sure that someone received or read an email, pick up the phone. 4. Do not overuse the high priority option. 5. Email can be cold and impersonal. If you receive an email from someone who seems upset, re-read it several times and make sure the sender is truly upset. If the sender is upset, consider a telephone reply instead of an email. If you have no phone number, assume that the sender was not upset, and reply with a smile on your email (figuratively). 6. If you get into a send and reply cycle with someone, break the cycle by making a phone call. 7. Don't respond to an email when you are angry. Emails can be stored on a computer and/or easily forwarded to other people. If you wouldn't want an email read to a jury or your mother, don't send it. 8. One of the most important parts of an email is the subject line. Make sure it accurately summarizes the content of the email. Think of it as the title for your book. You wouldn't call a book about cats, "Why I hate dogs." It might be true, but it is not effective. 9. Always use spell check and proof-read your email. Nothing is less professional than poor spelling. Keep your paragraphs short and consider using bullet points. 10. Do not ask to recall a message sent in error. 11. Do not forward chain letter, joke, virus warnings, political, or religious emails unless the recipient has asked to receive them in advance. Even then, never forward emails with crass language, racial epithets, lewd or suggestive material. Such behavior is inappropriate, and if it is forwarded again, it will have your email address immortalized as part of the header. 11. Do not flame. Expressing extreme anger or emotion in an email is considered flaming. 12. It is not appropriate in business emails to use emoticons such as :) [smile] or :( [frown]. 13. Do not use acronyms in business emails such as BTW (by the way), IMHO (in my humble opinion), or ROFL (roll on floor laughing). 14. Careful with "Reply All." Make sure you do not hit the "Reply All" button when you mean to simply "Reply." Reply All sends your reply to every recipient in both the To: and Cc: fields of the email. <body> <p><b><font size="5">Now Forward this to all your friends '-) Gary G. Schempp</font></b></p> </body> Monday, October 24, 2005I got this from Peter!!! Thanks, <a href=http://public.fotki.com/Pedro23//>Peter</a>!!! If we reduce the population of the Earth to a small town with 100 people and keep the proportions, it will look like this: 57 Asians 21 Europeans 14 Americans (northern and southern) 8 Africans 52 women 48 men 70 coloured-skins 30 caucasians 6 people would own 59% of the whole world wealth and all of them will be from the United States of America 80 would have bad living conditions 70 will be uneducated 50 will be underfed 1 would die 2 would be born 1 will have a computer 1 (only one) will have higher education If you look at the world from this point of view, you will see how there is a big need of solidarity, understanding, patience and education. Also think about the following If this morning you've woke up healthy, you are happier then 1 million people that will not survive next week. If you never suffered a war, the loneliness of the jail cell, the agony of torture, or hunger, you are happier than 500 million people in the world. If you can enter into a church (mosque) without fear of jail or death, you are happier than 3 million people in the world. If there is food in your fridge, you have shoes and clothes, you have a bed and a roof, you are richer than 75% of the people in the world. If you have bank account, money in your wallet and some coins in the money-box, you belong to the 8% of the people on the world, which are well-to-do. If you read this you are three times more blessed because: 1. somebody just thought of you. 1. you don't belong to the 200 million people that cannot read. 1. and... you have a computer! As somebody once said: "- work as if you don't need money, - love as if nobody never ever hurt you, - dance, as if nobody can see you, - sing, as if nobody can hear you, - live, as if the Earth was a heaven." Sunday, October 23, 200511:00 Fun Facts About ScorpioBeneath a controlled, cool exterior beats the heart of the deeply intense Scorpion. Passionate, penetrating, and determined, this sign will probe until they reach the truth. The Scorpion may not speak volumes or show their emotions readily, yet rest assured there's an enormous amount of activity happening beneath the surface. Excellent leaders, the Scorpion is always aware. When it comes to resourcefulness, this sign comes out ahead. Friends and Family Sincerity and truth are strong components of the Scorpion's friends. It can take some time before really close bonds are formed, but once done, the Scorpion will remain dedicated and loyal. Witty and intellectual, they prefer companions who are humorous and easygoing. Full of surprises, this sign will give you the shirt off their backs if that's what you need; yet, once they are crossed, there's no turning back. They feel deeply, and once hurt, it can be impossible to turn things around. Commitment to family is strong and consistent with the Scorpion. They are exceptionally helpful in managing affairs, and they are excellent advocates when one is needed. Career and Money "I desire" is the key phrase for the Scorpion. They are fantastic at managing, solving, or creating. Once the Scorpion sets their sights on a goal, there's no deterring this sign. Tasks that require a scientific, penetrating approach are always best done by the Scorpion, as they will delve deeply into the materials they have. Their ability to focus, coupled with determination, makes for strong management skills. They're not ones to worry about making friends on the job scene; rather, they prefer to see the task accomplished well. Pursuing such careers as a scientist, doctor, investigator, navigator, detective, researcher, police officer, business manager, and psychologist all suit the mighty Scorpion. Respect is an essential aspect of working for this sign. They need to respect their coworkers, while also feeling a sense of being respected by others. Disciplined enough to stick to a budget and unafraid of working as hard and as long as it takes puts the Scorpion in a good financial position. Many are fortunate and inherit money. Whatever the case - and regardless of the balance - they are great managers of their dollars and are not apt to overspend at all. Money means security and a sense of control, which is important to the Scorpion. Therefore, they're going to hang onto the majority of the cash, making decisions carefully before turning any of it over. Love and Sex This is the strongest of the sexualities in the zodiac. Incredibly passionate, the Scorpion takes intimacy seriously. Partners need to be intelligent and honest. Much of the foreplay for this sign happens long before the bedroom through conversation and observation. Once in love, they are devoted and loyal to the death. But relationships can take some time. The Scorpion needs to build trust and respect for a potential mate slowly and thoroughly.

Famous Scorpios Carl Sagan, Jody Foster, Indira Gandhi, Prince Charles and Grace Kelly Sunday, August 28, 20058:53 Labor DayLabor Day In September 1882 Central Labor Union held its first Labor Day celebration in New York City, in honor of the entire workforce. In 1884 the first Monday of September officially became Labor Day and over the years it has been celebrated with parades, fireworks and festivals; slowly losing its political connotations and becoming an unofficial end of summer holiday. Labor Day is devoted to no man, living or dead, to no sect, race or nation. --Samual Gompers, founder and president of the American Federation of Labor Friday, February 11, 2005Thank You Irene (<a href=http://public.fotki.com/tarbet//>http://public.fotki.com/tarbet/</a>) for creating and sharing your GREAT Welcome Page(<a href=http://members.fotki.com/tarbet//>http://members.fotki.com/tarbet/</a>) and it's Glorious Music with all of us!!! Here are the lyrics to go along with the Music!!! Gary Old Scotch Song, Copyright Unknown By yon bonnie banks, And by yon bonnie braes, Where the sun shines bright on Loch Lomond, Where me and my true love Were ever want to gae, On the bonnie, bonnie banks of Loch Lomond. Oh! ye'll take the high road and I'll take the low road, And I'll be in Scotland afore ye; But me and my true love Will never meet again On the bonnie, bonnie banks of Loch Lomond. 'Twas then that we parted In yon shady glen, On the steep, steep side of Ben Lomond, Where in purple hue The Highland hills we view, And the moon coming out in the gloaming. Oh! ye'll take the high road and I'll take the low road, And I'll be in Scotland afore ye; But me and my true love Will never meet again On the bonnie, bonnie banks of Loch Lomond. The wee birdie sang And the wild flowers spring, And in sunshine the waters are sleeping, But the broken heart it kens Nae second Spring again, Tho' the waeful may cease frae their greeting. Oh! ye'll take the high road and I'll take the low road, And I'll be in Scotland afore ye; But me and my true love Will never meet again On the bonnie, bonnie banks of Loch Lomond.

To keep them remembered they must be safely stored in the present. GaryGS1. Thursday, January 6, 2005Twas the week before Christmas and from seven states, Sixteen people would soon mix their fates. All were packing for a trip in December With hopes for adventures wed always remember. We arrived in San Jose with nary a care, Assured that our Mario would meet us all there. With storms in Texas and in other states Some were on time, but several were late. We met Wednesday morning full of high spirits and good cheer Knowing our new friends now were all here. With Mario in charge and Walt at the wheel, We soon realized our adventure was going to be real! With Atakan, Marissa and Ryan in sight Plus Leslie and Stephen from the house of White, And Richard, and Gary, and Delores and Herb (Whose laugh wed know if he said not a word,) And from California came Tony and Renee, Plus George and Pauline who were with us each day, When Betty, Billie, and Suzanne all did meet, The OAT family now was complete. All of Costa Rica was ours to see Only Walt and Mario knew the adventures to be. With rivers, rainforests, and volcanoes on the list Sometimes our view was obscured by mist. The flora and fauna Mario did know; Plants, birds, and critters to us he did show. With knowledge unequaled and actions so funny, His energy surpassed the Energizer Bunny! From an Indian attack and bird walks each day To zip lines, horses, and sprizes along the way There was rafting, hiking, and energy spent. So much to do, the time quickly went. Our Spanish improved and our relationships grew; Our knowledge expanded, (and our waistlines too!) All thru Costa Rica, we searched for a name, Since we visited Juan Batista, were the Guardians of the Cane! We wanted to see the old year out right, So we danced and partied til midnight. As we come to the end of two weeks of fun, We are not just 18, but a family of one! And we hope Mario will exclaim as we fly out of sight. Pura Vida, Gringos! Yall were all right!

<html> <head> Friday, December 3, 2004My good friend Larry Bright passed away on Sunday November 28, 2004. He and his girlfriend were victims of a head-on collision when the other car went into his lane. Both Larry and his girfriend died. I understand that the other party survived but do not know more details. Larry was coming home from Tenn. The accident happened on Rt 40 in Woodstown, NJ. Larry and I go back along way. He was my first friend when I moved from Philadelphia to Cape May Court House, Nj. in Nov. 1967 when I was 13 years old. Larry and I had hundreds of memorable occasions together growing up. Larry introduced me to many things: Fancy pidgeons and poultry, 4-H activities, hunting (I shot my first and only deer with Larry and got it mounted -still have it), auto mechanix, carpentry, and yes drinking,,,and going to dances... Larry and I knew how to party!!! I will miss him deeply. Gary G. Schempp Tribute Album = <a href=http://public.fotki.com/GaryGS1/home_pictures/tribute_album_to/>Click Here</a>
