The Games that Business Directors play - practice for politics
It is a well known fact that certain kinds of political behaviour are not just something that happens for no reason.Political behavior is learned and forged in the fires of Business. Nothing inspires and “teaches” like Money and Power. And the people that learn most are business directors. There are several “types” of directors, just as there are types of politicians. Then there are the Games played by business directors. And oh what games they play. These games also apply in politics of most Governments of well-developed countries. Croneyism, rival camps, empire building, the backstabbers ad everything that goes with it is all here in this article. Read the full text on my Hub Page. See what directors get up to, and remember, the fate of the world depends on these people, so they are supposed to be rational and smart. Yeah...right!

StumbleUpon doing well - Google Chrome Store struggles
It looks like StumbleUpon has surprised many people by posting very impressive profits, 20% up on previous sales, as it succeeded in sending "Stumblers" out to over 700 millions other websites. The amount of visitors to StumbleUpon since November 2009 has increased by 98.7%. A clear indicator that StumbleUpon is doing the right thing. So right, it has technically managed to slightly outperform the monstrous and popular Facebook, despite having just a fraction of the Social Network's massive 500 million or more users. Now that is impressive!
Meanwhile Google are struggling to make any profit with their Google Chrome Store. So do we need a new kind of better Google? It seems that it could be using better advertisement to make more people aware of it's rather Itunes-similar looking online store. Some free applications are doing well such as Quicknote, the web application that comes for free, while some other items like Mathsboard, a brilliant educational tool for teaching Maths to kids only sold 65 items over a similar period. Plus, you have to go and download something onto your Chrome Browser to actually be able to do all this stuff, and agree to purchase through the Google Checkout system and not Paypal. Could it be Google are just not getting the shout out there? Google are one brand we don't normally expect to find in a news story like this, and plainly, they need to revamp the Google Chrome Store and make it better. What perhaps Google also need to do is really put their Google Chrome out there so people can find it easy, and see its potential. And Google Checkout is another product that needs more user awareness. Be honest, how many people out there have used Google Checkout? Is this all down to a case of just not properly marketing and advertising this service? Looks like 2011 will be an interesting year for Facebook, Google and others as one dominant player takes center stage. Question is - who will it be? The unstoppable Facebook, or someone else?

Astra Nomik - the woman - the poems
Astra Nomik is better know to the world as Cathy Nerujen. She is my partner, and a fantastic poet. She has written some poems which are published on Hub Pages. And people have remarked on how amazing they are. Such is her popularity that, even though she is not the blogging kind or facebook-user type of person, she asked if I would give her a mention here. Heh! What a gal! Okay, do check her out, as her poetry is mainly romantic and almost all about love. And she is very special and amazing. Cheers.

A chapter sample "Megumi by the Firelight" - part 3
(The story so far - following on from parts 1 & 2- it's late in the evening as the girls get ready for bed, Megumi and Cassy are sharing the same room, and bed. Romance is in the air. And maybe love is close at hand also. Things are starting to happen, but it seems that fate is trying to intervene and somehow spoil the evening...an uninvited knock at the door could spoil things for the two girls...)
Avril stood there in a nightgown. Her red hair was tossed and wild and she looked like she’d just stepped out of a shower. Or possibly a wind tunnel. She looked over my shoulder and asked what was happening? What? I couldn’t believe it! I told her I was getting along nicely, and to please let us go to bed. Avril butted in and asked “Is she –eh...y’know? Gay?” Yes, I replied smoothly. “How’d ya know?” Avril asked again. I just looked at her. She raised her eyebrows and chuckled. “Holy shit, that was fast!”
“Goodnight, Avril honey! See ya in the morning!” And before she could ask any more I closed the door, and turned the key. Avril said something but it was muffled behind the door, and I just said goodnight again, till her footsteps tip-toed away. Poor Avril!
I went back to Megumi. She was sitting on the edge of the bed, removing clothes. I looked at her, and asked was she okay? She smiled, and said yes, much better now! I kissed her on the forehead, and said “Let’s sleep. It was a long day.” Megumi slid onto the bed, and took off her socks. I was removing my clothes now. Megumi had a very kinky smile on her face. I must have had the same smile because she suddenly gave a low husky chuckle, which made me smile even more.
Suddenly another knock came from the door. Oh no. Not again. I went to the door, and said “Avril, please go to bed.” Silence. Then a voice. “It’s me, Ronda...” My heart sank.
I unlocked the door and opened it to find Ronda standing there still in her clothes, still with that stupid make-up on her face, and she smelled of beer. Like she’d been swimming in it. “Cassy, baby...” she began.
Oh God help me, I thought, now what. Ronda’s voice was low and husky, like she’d just crawled out of a desert and she had difficulty getting her words out. “Cassy, I’m sorry for being a bitch. I was a bitch tonight. I...I am a bitch. I’m a stupid ball of lesbian ....” She trailed off into some incomprehensible mumbling bullcrap. “Ronda, it’s okay,” I muttered. “Just go to bed. It’s really okay.”
“No it isn’t, Cassy. You’re really sweet. You’re popular. Everybody loves you. They all love you.” She wavered and hovered uncertainly on her feet. “F**kin wasters...all” she suddenly roared, scaring the crap out of me. Then she yelled out – “Wasters, all of you! Lesbians! Bleedin’ amateurs!”
Then she seemed to start a different conversation as though she were somewhere else.
“Do you like my make-up, Cassy? Am I...am I pretty?” she asked sweetly. Honestly, she looked rubbish. But I hadn’t the heart to make her mood any worse. I said yes, she was lovely and told her to keep her voice down. “Lying bitch!!!” she roared. “I’m an over-weight, ugly F**kin’ BINT! I hate myself!”
Just then Marla appeared, and came down the hall in her dressing gown, smiling like she was out shopping or something – it was bizarre - and she good-humouredly grabbed Ronda, and just as the two started moving away, Ronda retched and with the sound of a woman giving birth - puked up all over the rich red carpet. Sweet!...
(Continued by going to the link above, and read the entirety of Part 3.)
I have been writing this book for several months now, and happily, I can report it is nearly complete. I want to thank all the fans over in HubPages for the support to this project. I especially want to thank Blaise25, Allie and Art, and so many others. And most of all, Cathy, my partner for her undying love and support. This project is for you, Cathy. This book will be published in December 2010 and there is a slim chance that it may be getting published with two publishers.
Thank you for following the Chapters both here and on my website and on Hub Pages. And feel free to leave comments here and let me know what you thought of this, and if you'd like to see more like this published here.

An extended extract from "Megumi by the Firelight" - Part One
This is an extended extract from the forthcoming book by me, Cassanrda Mantis. The title is to be confirmed as yet. This is just Part One. Part Two will be following here very soon. Below is a short extract. This is the taster, a nice juicy part one of a big Chapter from the book. A weekend sleep-over in a friend's house gets very naughty for the 8 girls. There will be part 2 coming soon. It's a coming of age, coming out, finding true love kind of story. Follow the link for the full version of Part One. (The link opens a Hub Page in a new tab.)
"The idea of a sleep over for 8 girls was great. The fact that it was going to be 8 lesbians, or at least 8 girls with wayward sexual tendencies - was even better, and being 16 years old, and bursting with hormones, we were all looking forward to it. There’d be dressing up, make-up, music, games, stories, magic , palm-reading, shopping comparisons, art, jokes, flirting, and later probably some drinking, smoking and card games and then some naughty stuff, experimenting - as we girlies liked to do. Being Sixteen, naughty to us was kissing and sleeping over sometimes. Basically it was a weekend of partly-realistic teenage delinquency and debauchery and a get-together to see who would snog who. We were not yet progressed to the full-on heavy stuff that gay women or adults did. (And some of us never would.) But my friend Penny told me that a last minute change had been made and that a new girl was being added to replace a sick friend. I was surprised to find Ronda tell me “It’s the Jap girl”. There was a Japanese girl in my class, a very quiet girl who spoke to no one. I was surprised..."
More to come soon. Meanwhile - check out some nice books and films of a similar nature! And check this review of a truly delightful poetry collection by Marifel Collection, a girl's delight - "Toss and Turn".
