		<description>Everyone needs to take note of this post  Slender Lady Founder Bruce Sharpe Has Died.  Is this the legacy that is waiting for Howie and Diane?  I would think so!  Hey Howie you should take note it all comes out in the wash.....Well at least you will be remembered but not in the way you had anticipated.</description>

		<description>ScrdByCurves story:

A few individuals keep trying to stand up for curves and Hoiwie but since they don&#039;t own a club they have no idea what owners had to endure. it&#039;s a wonder to me that even more owners haven&#039;t sued CI for breaking the franchise agreement on advertising , and territorial rights ect. ect.  Howie is  so crooked in every aspect of how he runs this franchise..  Any  person even considering buying a curves franchise should  have serious second thoughts  and don&#039;t just walk away RUN.</description>

		<description>This story speaks volumes about the curves franchises and may give  some incite of the ones that are still open.  Could it be that the approximately 3000  clubs out of the 10,000 were allowed by curves international to do things which were against the franchise agreement thus forcing a lot of clubs to close?</description>

		<description>Important message to all Curves owners. 
There is another site that all current owners of a curves franchise needs to be aware of.  The site was set up by Curves using our advertising dollars so we all need to use it.  It’s intent is to allow owners to converse with other owners and to share ideas.  It is a good site if you are looking for ideas on how to save your club or just have questions for other owners.  Here is the link    http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/curvesowners/?v=1&amp;t=search&amp;ch=web&amp;pub=groups&amp;sec=group&amp;slk=1

Please go there to check it out and voice your opinion on the current posts and voice your concerns.  This site is strictly for owners.</description>
