Alumni Capture the Essence of Pokemon GO CrazeTopics: Marketing-Marketing StrategyCommunication-Social MediaEntertainment-Games, Gaming, and GamblingInnovation-Technological Innovation
The Pokemon GO craze swept across the HBS campus in the last few weeks and it's also gotten the attention of HBS alumni around the world. Beyond sharing the fun of capturing the game's many little monsters, alumni also are taking note of its rapid spread and success—and any business lessons that can be derived from the phenomenon.
To gather alumni thoughts and takeaways, we went on social media with a question: "How can other brands replicate the breakout success of Pokemon GO … or can they?" Here are a sampling of their responses:
Many marveled at the game's breakout success. Jason E. Klein (MBA 1986) said, "Pokemon GO will be the dawn of a new generation of Augmented Reality startups" and classmate David Kenny predicted Pokemon GO is "just the beginning of mingling real and virtual worlds." Meanwhile, Taru Kapoor (MBA 2015) added a dose of reality by tweeting, "remember overnight success takes yrs."
Some alumni offered advice, like Jeremy Valeda (PLDA 15, 2013), who said, "I think Pokemon GO needs to leverage their geocaching service with local commerce to monetize the experience." Cimarron Buser (MBA 1988) agreed, tweeting: "Pokemon GO needs to 'up the ante' in the game and use locations and retailers to provide 'real world' ($) rewards to players."
Many alumni see possibilities and potential in other areas: "Augmented reality can definitely revolutionize e-commerce and mobile-friendly brand apps," said Ameera Shah (OPM 42, 2012), while Humberto Moreira (MBA 2009) said the company should "partner with more brands [and] structure rewards for retention."
Still other alumni, however, see risk: "Unless you go for original positioning that fits your brand (rather than replicating), you'll fail," said Alex Kruglov (MBA 2006).
Whether risk or reward, Tim Reed (MBA 1996) captured the meaning of Pokemon GO's success in one word: "#innovation."

The two actors were sopping wet, their clothes sticking to their skin. In a dinghy onstage at 3LD Art & Technology Center in Lower Manhattan, they were rehearsing a scene from Sheila Callaghan's immersive new eco-play, "(Not) Water" — guzzling water ever more sloppily from a succession of increasingly large plastic containers, then throwing their empties overboard. They talked. They drank. The liquid spilled out and drenched them. The bottom of the boat sloshed with runoff.
"Act like you're not wet at all," their director, Daniella Topol, called from a few yards away on a recent afternoon, and the performers stopped wiping their eyes. Letting the water course over them, they just kept on going.
It's a tricky element, water — messy, difficult to contain and, for Ms. Callaghan and Ms. Topol, who conceived "(Not) Water" together, elusive as a dramatic subject. It has taken nearly a dozen years for the play, which began in 2005 with a monologue about Hurricane Katrina, to find its shape.
"It's about water quality, which we have control over, and water quantity, which we don't have control over," Ms. Callaghan said from Los Angeles, where she writes for the Showtime comedy "Shameless," and where the yearslong drought informed her thinking about water. Yet it is such an enormous topic that it was not only hard to grasp but also exhausting to confront. The hyperawareness of details concerning any number of issues (climate change, safe drinking water, use of natural resources) periodically led to what she called "urgency fatigue."
"We're trying to hold a storm in our hands," a character named Not Sheila says in the play — or did in a recent draft, which has been updated since. Because that's the thing about this show: Its state of flux has been a constant. Hurricane Sandy, the lead-tainted water in Flint, Mich., even President Trump's announcement this month that the United States would pull out of the Paris climate accord — with each significant event, the play has morphed anew. Waist-deep in "(Not) Water," Ms. Callaghan, 44, and Ms. Topol, 42, just keep on fording.
Presented by the theater company New Georges at 3LD, where it opens on Thursday, June 15, the full-length play is part of a program called Works on Water that includes an exhibition of visual art. It joins a growing body of plays addressing climate change and the chaos it's wreaking (Cynthia Hopkins's "This Clement World," Sharyn Rothstein's "By the Water," Madeleine George's "Hurricane Diane," the Civilians' "The Great Immensity").
Ms. Callaghan said her show — a multimedia experience in which video has a prominent role — is intended not as a polemic but as a catalyst for conversation, even if "there's a little ornery activist heart at the core of the play." Part provocation, part meditation, it embraces silliness, ventures into scariness and from the start demands a measure of participation from audience members. On arrival, they choose their own seats from a heap of buckets, plastic crates, camp chairs and coolers.
The set designer, Deb O, described it as the kind of unruly pile you see in post-flood news photos, where people's belongings have been removed from their homes and tossed onto their lawns. "You just pull up that 5-gallon bucket and you sit on that and look at what has happened," she said.
Ms. Callaghan's problem, when Hurricane Katrina struck the Gulf Coast in 2005, was that she couldn't stop looking. The storm didn't affect her directly; she was living in New York then, and she watched television footage of the disaster's victims from the comfort of her gym. Outraged, she became obsessed with both the government's failure to protect vulnerable people and the power of something as essential and everyday as water to "turn on us," she said.
The piece that became "(Not) Water" has gone through many work-in-progress incarnations in the years since. One staging, at Here, was so early in the artists' ecological awareness that each audience member was given a bottle of water — a gesture the team later discarded as wasteful, Ms. Topol said. Another version, at the 14th Street Y, featured a doughnut-shaped stage by Mimi Lien, the Tony-nominated set designer of "Natasha, Pierre & the Great Comet of 1812," with the audience on the inside looking out.
Ms. Callaghan and Ms. Topol had a welcome success when they collaborated on the ambitious, multimedia "Dead City" in 2006, also with New Georges at 3LD. (Two actors from that show, April Matthis and Rebecca Hart, are also in this one.) "It was, both of us, our first big deal," said Ms. Topol, who is now the artistic director of Rattlestick Playwrights Theater. But they couldn't get "(Not) Water" to breathe the way they wanted.
Then, in November, at a reading the day before the presidential election, Ms. Callaghan presented the company with a fresh draft structured around a couple of new characters named Not Sheila and DT: stage versions of Ms. Callaghan and Ms. Topol. The characters have the same humor and rapport as their real-life counterparts, and they get similarly overwhelmed as they wrestle with the same storytelling problems. As a frame, it's self-aware, meta and riskily so.
"Daniella was horrified because first of all, I don't remember asking her permission to put her in the play," Ms. Callaghan said. "She wasn't entirely comfortable with it. Because it is so revealing. It reveals on some level that we were lost." Yet that way of approaching the play, allowing those characters to observe and respond to the world around them, seemed at last to be the key. "It was the first time it ever started to feel alive," Ms. Callaghan said.
More recently, she borrowed a potent Hurricane Sandy memory from Susan Bernfield, the producing artistic director of New Georges, whose ailing mother was using an oxygen tank and had to be evacuated from her apartment by firefighters after the storm knocked the power out. A character named Susanbernfield Artisticdirector tells that story.
Deb O also has a mom story, and she told it when Ms. Callaghan and Ms. Topol called to feel her out about joining the project. "There was a barrage of questions," Deb O recalled. "My relationship with water, and have I thought about water, and what have I done with water." She mentioned the parasite in the water supply in her native Milwaukee that killed scores of people and sickened 400,000 others, including her mother, in 1993.
Plastic water bottles are objects of ecological loathing for Deb O, and a sprawling sculpture that is part of her "(Not) Water" set uses about 2,000 of them, scavenged from various sources and destined for recycling. But for many years after that parasitic outbreak, tap water scared her. She drank her water from plastic bottles instead. Now she wonders how safe that was.
That's the kind of skeptical awareness that "(Not) Water" aims to elicit, backing even its futuristic bits with science dramaturgy by the group Guerilla Science. And while Ms. Callaghan said she doesn't know whether, after all this time, the show will mean anything to anyone but its creators, Ms. Topol sounded sanguine about the product of their oh-so-slow journey — a show she would love to tour. Years ago, when they were still dissatisfied, they made the deliberate choice not to rush it.
"Our taste has changed and evolved, and our confidence has changed and evolved, and our sense of courage to say, 'We don't know what we're doing, and that's O.K.,'" Ms. Topol said. "We've just grown up together.
"I would wish that for all artists," she added. "To trust themselves and to give themselves time and space for the complex things."

MAKEOVER: Letting Christopher Have His Freedom, by Christopher Hopkins, The Makeover Guy®
Vicky and Lauralee were a gift. Often times a makeover can be completely energy draining, but these were energy giving and why we keep doing what we do. I'm glad I didn't know that Lauralee had restrictions. Margaret created a perfect ash blonde while Kelly did a beautiful job lifting the muddiness out of Vicky's color. Kami and Topher both won at corrective and challenging makup applications. Joann Hopkins offered great advice as to why leggings are not great for anyone who wants to keep some of the unwanted information about their figure challenges a secret.

As a wedding photographer I feel the need to share the wonderful couples I have with the world. As such I usually submit many of the weddings that I photograph. The submissions themselves are particular as different blogs and magazines are looking for certain stylistic elements at different times during the year but I am always so honored when a shoot of mine gets published- on the internet or in print.
Grace+Joseph's engagement session started out on the Yonkers Waterfront which is close to where they live. We just happened to hear about a carnival nearby which was within walking distance so we took a shot and walked over. I am so glad that we did because the images that we shot at the carnival remain some of my favorite engagement session images that i've done simply for the summertime energy and good old fashioned love vibrations. They actually won that stuffed Minion during the taking of the photos and gave him to me at the end of the session knowing how much I love them! I'm so happy to see this session published and hope you like it too! The full feature is below or it can also be accessed here!!

Use our exclusive School Matcher.
Instantly get matched with Accelerated MSN programs now
Obtaining a Master's degree in Science and Nursing typically requires students to complete at least two years of postgraduate studies in an MSN program. However, for students that have a strong work ethic and want to complete their postgraduate study in a shorter period of time, there is a helpful alternative in the form of accelerated MSN programs. If you are a student in the state of Iowa, then you can take advantage of these programs in order to get your degree faster. Here, we'll go over how accelerated MSN programs in Iowa work, as well as how you can find the right program for your particular situation.
Accelerated MSN programs in Iowa are designed in such a way that they allow students to complete their postgraduate studies in less time. This is done by compressing the study plan for a Master's degree program into a shorter timeframe. However, because the material in the courses has been compressed, students will need to put in additional time and effort on their part in order to compensate for the smaller timeframe in which the program is completed. If you have a strong work ethic and are willing to dedicate a greater percentage of your time to studying, then an accelerated MSN program can be an excellent alternative to longer postgraduate study plans.
There are a number of different accelerated MSN programs in Iowa, and choosing the right one is often a matter of comparison shopping. Depending on your educational background, the type of specialization or focus you want to concentrate on, and the amount of time in which you want to complete your postgraduate work, certain programs will be better for you than others. This directory is designed to help students find the right program for them by providing a listing of MSN programs in the state of Iowa, and to allow you to compare the characteristics of each individual program in order to find the best match for your needs.
Accelerated MSN programs in Iowa can be a great alternative to standard postgraduate work for students that want to finish their degrees in less time. If you wish to learn more about accelerated MSN programs in your state, leave your contact information to be added to our mailing list and receive updates on programs being offered near you, as well as changes made on a statewide level.

Transformation of the Day: LaShonta lost 49 pounds. This Alpha Kappa Alpha soror has gone from a size 18 to a size 10. After a lifetime of struggling with her weight, she created the support system she needed to succeed and became disciplined when it came to her eating and exercise habits.
Since I can remember, I've always struggled with my weight. I was overweight as a child and as an adult. I was made fun of in middle school and high school due to my weight. In 2016, I decided to take my health back. At the time, I was at the heaviest weight I've ever been: 242 pounds. I was able to lose 37 pounds, but I gained 23 pounds of it back within the year. I continued to struggle. I gave up and went back to my old ways.
In July 2017, my schedule permitted for me to work out the way I wanted. My starting weight was 228 pounds. I started training with my longtime trainer Kelvin Bennett at Train 36ixty twice a week. I also joined Strong Fitness where I worked out three times a week with my trainer Shay. I began going to Zumba with LaNora Henry at Train 36ixty four times a week as well. I worked out as much as four times per day! I would run 3-4 miles, and sometimes until the treadmill cut off.
I stopped eating meat. I only ate seafood, vegetables, fruit, and nuts. I drank nothing but water! I began to get incredibly creative with my meals when I wanted to cook at home. I made meatless spaghetti using spaghetti squash as my noodles. I would also drink two protein shakes as a meal replacement, one for breakfast and one for dinner. Along with this, I would eat a meal for lunch and three snacks.
By December of 2017, I weighed 179 pounds. I've gone from a size 18 to a size 10. Now, I'm in the best shape I've ever been in my life. My conditioning is unbelievable. I can do push-ups, and I actually love to run now.
I come from a family where most of my family members are obese (mostly on my father's side), which motivated me to lose weight. There were days when I didn't want to workout nor eat healthy, but I would tell myself, "You've come this far, there's no turning back." Also, I have a cousin who started her weight loss journey at the same time I did. We worked out together just about every day. We inspired and motivated each other to keep going. She's a fantastic accountability partner.
My weight loss journey helped me to find myself all over again as a young woman, and to fall in love with myself. I remember trying on a onesie at Victoria's Secret and being able to fit into it. I literally screamed in the dressing room. I've never been able to wear a onesie from Victoria's Secret. I've become overly obsessed with maintaining my weight and continuing to work out. I cleaned out my closet thoroughly, and I got rid of all of my bigger clothes. I felt as though it would help me keep going and really make my weight loss a lifestyle!

Roger Ebert Full ReviewGood ...his storytelling is meaty but efficient, and his pacing moves along at a steadily engrossing clip before ultimately exploding in a startling blast of violence. ...Sheridan's script can be just as powerful in its quiet moments like these—in what the characters don't say to each other.
USA Today Full ReviewVery Good ...thoughtful and intense.. Cowboys vs. Indians used to be the conflict, yet in this film, true justice is found when both work together. A sentimental belief, sure, but one that's entrenched in this cool and engrossing tale.
Rolling Stone Full ReviewGood ...he could have been tougher on his screenwriter on tightening the plot twists. No matter. Wind River packs an elemental power that knocks you for a loop.
Slant Magazine Full ReviewBelow Average The film succumbs to its main character's didacticism: His perceived humility masks a smug, Manichean worldview. Lambert smooths over the film's more intriguing rough edges, uniting white police and native victims by way of dull, repetitive platitudes.

One Instructor to Many Students
One Instructor to Many Students
One instructor on their computer transmits to many students, each on their own computers.
Difficulty to Use: Low
Difficulty to Implement: Low
Cost: Low
Support Needs: Low
Equipment Needed:
- 1 x Webcam
- 1 x Microphone/Headset
Risks and Rewards
This model is the easiest and cheapest to accomplish. The instructor must be well prepared for class and know how to teach to students who are not together in the same room. This involves engaging students online in an interactive way. The class sizes for this model are limited and students will have to be prepared to set up their own technology.
Technology Considerations
The instructor must have a good quality microphone and webcam as well as a well-lit room and an excellent internet connection. Students must have time to prepare their own technology before classes and a few practice sessions will be required before the official start of classes. Students must also have a good internet connection for two-way communication.
Recommended Hardware
A good quality USB headset is recommended. This will allow for clear audio without distracting background noises (traffic, office, children, pet noises etc.) and will easily connect to any computer with a USB port.
"Logitech H390 Wired ClearChat Comfort USB Headset" is an easy to use, good quality headset that is generally available for $60 or less.
Many webcams will be sufficient. If looking to purchase a webcam the "Logitech C920 HD Pro" is a good quality webcam available for less than $100.

We usually only visit the library during the summer since the boys can check out books from school. On our first visit we left fully stocked with new stories and movies but only after getting to see a sports themed magic show. Pretty much the perfect thing for my fellas. It was fun and funny and just tricky enough to amuse :) Connor and Logan even got to help out during one of the tricks. They were the bookends to sports ball dominoes.

So, the second batch of apples that I pillaged from the local roadside tree's, was milled and then left with some pectolase and crushed campden tablet mixed in. The campden tablet to prevent bacterial infection and the pectolase to help with juice and flavour extraction plus it helps prevent pectin hazes in the finished wine.
Then last weekend, I strained and pressed it. I also added the 3lb of frozen black berries that I had in the freezer. To basically follow one of the Apple and Blackberry recipes in the ageing "Boots book of Home Wine and Beer Making" (ageing as it was originally published in 1982 but the recipes seem to be more up to date than those in the CJJ Berry Book "Firt Steps in Wine Making).
Of course, I should have just milled the apples and then added the blackberries but I don't think it matters, it's been fermenting on the pulp of the blackberries/apple juice for about 4 days or so now, which means that today I'll be straining it and the pressing what's left of the pulp.
Also, about a week ago, I found some cheap plums in the local Tesco (about 65 pence per pound) so I bought 6lb thinking that the average fruit recipe uses about 3lb of fruit per gallon. The plum recipes use about 4 1/2 lb per gallon so I've de-stoned the fruit, crushed it a bit and then added the 5 pints of hot water. This has been allowed to cool and then it's had pectolase, a crushed campden tablet and a teaspoon of citric acid added. Later this evening I'll be adding the rest of the ingredients i.e. yeast, nutrient, grape concentrate (don't recall whether I add the sugar at this stage or not...) etc but it'll then be left to ferment on the pulp for about 3 or 4 days, before the pulp is then strained off.
I should point out, that I've been using either Lalvins RC212 or Youngs Burgundy yeasts. This'd be mainly because of the properties of retaining colour and some of the more delicate flavours that often differentiate between red/dark coloured fruits and light/green coloured fruits (it's more in depth than that, but I suspect it's better to stick with the normal winemaking conventions).

Synopsis: Rangasamy is one of many "sons of the soil". Hailing from a long line of laborers who live on the border of Kerala and Tamil Nadu he yearns to own a piece of land and make a living by farming it himself, instead of toiling in the spice plantations of others forever. After years of dedicated labor and service to the local communist party, led by the passionate Chaako, who advocates on behalf of the laborers, Rangasamy is finally in a position to purchase his own land. However, buying land is only half the battle for the poor like him – prospering from it amidst the corrupt dealings of the wealthy, the party and globalization is the far greater struggle, as Rangasamy soon learns.

World's 2nd Tallest Building
Was on leave on Thursday and needed to go to Public Bank Berhad to settle my home loan. Sent letters to them but no response at all. Forced me to go to their branch located opposite the Petronas Twin Towers.
Now, I'm waiting for Public Bank to fully execute my loan documentation in order for the loan to be disbursed to my housing developer by 5 August 2008. Thank God that the housing developer has granted me a three months' grace period for me to settle the home loan. But Public Bank is not helping me.
Two months have passed and the loan documentation is still not fully executed. What is going on with Public Bank? One week has passed after I have requested them to update me on the status but still no news.
On Monday I'll be faxing another letter to remind them. Putting up all this letters to put up a case against them in case the housing developer penalises me for late payment.
After Public Bank, I walked over to the Petronas Twin Towers. It's still the world's second tallest building right after Taiwan's Taipei 101.
When Burj Dubai is done, the Petronas Twin Towers will drop down the ranking to number three in the world.
Headed into its base which houses the KLCC Suria shopping centre. Just need to waste a bit of time while waiting for the Archidex 08 exhibition to start at 11am to be held at the Kuala Lumpur Convention Centre. While in the shopping centre, I went straight to the post office in order to claim my rebate after having renewed my car's road tax two weeks ago. The thermal paper that came out from the machine reads "1062". Current number being served was 1020. Woooooooooooow! Waited for almost one hour.
All you need to do is to get a queueing number, fill in a designated form which requires your fullname / residential address / identity card number / car registration number, then wait, produce your original identity card, put your thumb print of the designated form and then the for RM625 will be handed over to you. Don't go and spend it. That's an advance payment for you to offset the hike in fuel price.
After settling the rebate, walked over to the convention centre via the underground passage. While at Archidex 08, I noticed this miniature project created by an architectural firm. Don't know whether the miniature buildings would be built or not. I have heard of this joke - Architects designed buildings where Engineers couldn't build. Don't know who's lousy in this case ..... hehe
Noticed that a number of those exhibitors were the same as those found in HomeDec '08. Nevertheless got a number of ideas in this exhibition and the total number of pamphlets that I have gotten almost broke my arm.
Another tiring day and went to Dome @ Suria KLCC to have my meal (lunch?). Good outcome anyway. Praying hard that all these housing materials' prices won't increase like mad.

Door Signs and Vehicle Graphics & How to Apply Them
This is best done when the temperature is above about 10 ° c - 15 ° c. You can apply them in colder weather but it is harder to get them to stick onto the vehicle. In very cold weather, you could heat up the area on the vehicle with a heat gun / hair drier.
Clean the area the door sign is going to be applied to. You can use soap and water normally.
Spray some slightly soapy water on the area when clean. We use 2 or 3 drops of washing up liquid (cheap one) in 1 litre of water for heavy / wide lettering but for thin letters, its best to use just water.
With the door sign facing down, on a flat surface, paper side up, pull back the paper off the letters. We spray the same soapy water on the letters as we pull off the paper, especially if you are out side and the wind may fold over the sheet.
This will stop it sticking to itself if you go wrong.
Place the graphics on the vehicle. You can line it up as you have sprayed the vehicle and the lettering.
When in position squeegee all the water & air out, starting in the middle, you could use something like a credit card if you haven't got a squeegee.
Carefully peel back the backing paper, this is when you will find out if you have used too much soap, they will not stick!
If you find that letters are coming off, use the edge of the squeegee to hold the edge of the letters to stop them moving, as you pull back the backing paper.
Another way of doing it if you have plenty of time is, before you try taking off the backing paper, heavily spray the backing paper with soapy water and leave it some 10 to 15 minutes. In a lot of cases the backing paper will come off with little effort.
You may have to use the squeegee to get out any air bubbles if you did not squeegee them out earlier.
If all the text was the same size as the top line here, use soap in the water, but if you used soap on the middle line of thin letters, you will struggle to keep the text on the vehicle when you take off the backing paper. Only use water. For mixed text like this sign, its best to use just water.
Although it may seem hard, the use of weak soapy water is a 'life saver' as it helps you get things right. Some sign shops put vinyl on dry but then once the sign is on, you cannot move it around. It also helps get the air bubbles out. Putting it on dry will make it impossible to get the air bubbles out without using a pin.

No room for error as Manchester City seek first win
Manchester City visit Ajax today knowing that they can afford no further setbacks if they are to avoid a painful repeat of last season's Champions League group-phase exit
Dealt another fiendish draw, City find themselves in third place in Group D after two matches, five points behind leaders Real Madrid and three points adrift of Borussia Dortmund.
Both games to date have left the English champions in rueful mood. The opening 3-2 loss in Madrid came courtesy of a 90th-minute winner from Cristiano Ronaldo, while City needed a last-minute Mario Balotelli penalty to snatch a 1-1 draw at home to an enterprising Dortmund side three weeks ago.
Although Ajax are the Dutch champions, they are the weakest team in the group, and City will hope to reignite their push for a last-16 place by winning both games of their double-header against the Amsterdam club.

Queen On CD
2011 makes the 40th anniversary of Queen's "official" formation. 1971 was the year that the band recorded a number of songs that would eventually appear on their 1973 debut album, "Queen", most in re-recorded form but one in "remixed" form only. To celebrate, the fifteen studio albums the band released before the Queen & Paul Rodgers "reunion" have been re-released on CD.
The reissues appeared on Island - signed to EMI for most of their lifetime, there has been a recent falling out, hence the change of label. As well as appearing as a set of pointless one-disc reissues, all have resurfaced as 2-CD sets, with a bonus CD EP of rarities and unreleased tracks.
It's not the first time that the albums have been available on Compact Disc. All of them were issued in the early 90's, but with no extras - if it was a ten track vinyl LP when first released, it was a ten track CD you got. And whilst it is the first time ("A Night At The Opera" excepted) that the albums are surfacing in the UK in expanded form, it is not the first time some of them have been released with bonus tracks.
Queen, at one point, were huge in the States, and in 1991, to celebrate the release of the "Innuendo" album, the band's US label Hollywood Records reissued all of the band's studio albums released between 1973 and 1989 with extra tracks. But some of the bonus tracks were - well, questionable. In this article, I shall detail Queen's album releases, looking specifically at the CD editions that started to surface in the 80's, and how the Hollywood reissues fit in.
Vinyl Days
The band's debut album was finished in 1972, part of it having being recorded at Trident Studios. Trident were a fan of the band, and helped them try and secure a record deal. Nobody seemed interested, and in the end Trident made arrangements to release it themselves the following year, but managed to get the album released on the EMI label, with a "Trident Audio Production" credit on the label. EMI would be home to the band for the rest of their recording career. The album concluded with a short version of an at-the-time unfinished track called "Seven Seas Of Rhye", which then made it - in full and completed form - onto the 1974 follow up, "Queen II".
"Queen II" used the same logo on the cover as it's predecessor, whilst the superb "Queen Crest" logo found on the back of the "Queen" sleeve, later to be used on other Queen albums as the front cover, appeared again on the back of "Queen II". The album came in a cover featuring an image of the band which was later "reinterpreted" in the "Bohemian Rhapsody" video, and was housed in a gatefold sleeve that was printed at right angles - so that the spine was at the bottom, and not on the left, of the cover. The cover image was on a black background, inside the band were photographed against a white image, and these colours were a central theme of the album - the album sides were not numbered but were called "Side White" and "Side Black" and the song titles included "White Queen" and "The March Of The Black Queen".
1974's "Sheer Heart Attack" omitted the Queen logos; the album title was later re-used for a song of the same name on the "News Of The World" album. 1975's "A Night At The Opera" used the Crest logo as it's main front cover image, and although it's claim to fame is the inclusion of "Bo Rhap" on side 2, it's a superb album even without that song, arguably the highpoint of the band's career. 1976's companion release, "A Day At the Races", used a "new" crest logo, this time against a black cover, but struggled to top the genius of the record that preceeded it, and has always seemed - to me - to be a bit of a patchy affair. It was the last Queen album to famously proclaim that the record contained "No Synths".
1977's "News Of The World", far from being threatened by punk, took the baton and ran with it, and featured some far punchier material than had been found on "A Day At The Races". 1978's "Jazz" saw the band go slightly off course again, although they could still produce a hit single or three when they tried. The album included the AA side single "Fat Bottomed Girls" and "Bicycle Race", the latter famously featuring a video clip consisting of 65 naked women cycling around Wimbledon Greyhound stadium. Initial copies of the "Jazz" LP came with a free poster featuring a photo of the girls taken on set, but after complaints were received, later editions came instead with a flyer which gave details of how fans could send off for a copy of the poster. I understand that the most collectable versions of "Jazz" are later poster-less pressings, with the insert intact and unblemished.
The band's first live LP, the incendiary "Live Killers" was released in 1979. It was reissued by Hollywood in 1991, but with no bonus tracks, and although it has been released on CD in the UK, it is not being released this time around. 1980's "The Game" came in a shiny reflective sleeve, and was followed by the band's ninth studio effort, the soundtrack to the "Flash Gordon" movie. "Flash's Theme", one of Queen's campest and most brilliant moments, was issued in edited form as a single, where it was retitled simply "Flash".
1982 saw the release of the heavily disco indebted "Hot Space", referred to by many as the moment that Queen lost the plot. Mercury was the driving force behind it, having been influenced by the music he was hearing in the Gay Club scene, and the album baffled critics and fans. It was the polar opposite of the "no synthesizers" period, and Taylor admitted he hated it, although the pop/dance sound would actually become a central ingredient in the albums that followed. 1984's "The Works", despite sounding quite mainstream, was regarded as a return to form - even I admit, that as rubbish as it first sounded, "Radio Ga Ga" is actually quite an impressive pop 45. By the time Queen stole the show at Live Aid, they were one of the biggest bands in the UK - despite still failing to top the likes of "Sheer Heart Attack" in terms of quality.
The CD Era
1986's "A Kind Of Magic" was the first Queen album to be released on CD with additional tracks, thereby taking advantage of the extended playing time the format offered. The extra tracks included alternate versions of "A Kind Of Magic" and "Friends Will Be Friends", the former of which remains exclusive to this release. Another live album, the rather patchy "Live Magic" was issued at the end of 86, and although nobody knew it at the time, turned out to be a momento of what was Queen's final tour.
1989's "The Miracle" was a return to the guitar based sound of the 70's, with a few slightly bonkers moments, and was something of a hidden gem. With Mercury now starting to show signs of his (ultimately) fatal illness, touring was a no no. The CD edition added three extra songs, including the "I Want It All" flip side "Hang On In There" and an extended mix of "The Invisible Man" which was later released as a single.
Later the same year saw the release on the Band Of Joy label of "Queen At The Beeb", a thrilling 8 song set consisting of two BBC Radio sessions the band taped in 1973. Queen's final album release before Freddie's death was 1991's "Innuendo", the title track of which - a sort of 1990's "Bo Rhap" - was released as a single trailing the album release, and which was unedited for single release, despite being six and a half minutes long. A video was filmed for the track "These Are The Days Of Our Lives", which was issued as a single in the US in September 91, by which time Mercury's condition was faltering, resulting in the video being shot in black and white to try and "cover up" his illness. The song - and video - famously ended with the line, "I Still Love You", seen as an obvious 'goodbye' from Freddie to the fans. Mercury passed away in November, and the track was released as a AA side in the UK with "Bohemian Rhapsody" as a Christmas Single, which - like it did in 1975 - hit the top spot.
1992 saw the release of the "Live At Wembley" double CD, which did a better job of commemorating the 1986 tour than "Live Magic" did, and 1995 saw the release of the fifteenth and final studio record, "Made In Heaven", consisting of unfinished songs taped during the "Innuendo" sessions, fleshed out by the remaining trio. It took until late 93 for the rest of the band to do this, as they found it too upsetting to try and finish the songs beforehand. The trio would record a Freddie-less song, "No One But You" in 1997, which was included on a compilation called "Queen Rocks", and was released as a single in January 1998. Two more live albums, both from the early 80's were released after the millennium - "Queen At The Bowl" in 2004 (taped in 1982) and "Queen Rock Montreal" in 2007 (taped in 1981).
The Hollywood Reissues
For a band so quintessentially "British" as Queen, it seems strange to think that it was their US label that decided to try and produce "special" editions of the band's studio output. Indeed, in the UK, bonus track-less editions of the albums continued to be the standard versions available in the shops even after the US editions had turned up Stateside.
But the bonus tracks were - in most instances - baffling. A series of specially conducted "new" mixes of a handful of songs were created, which in some instances sounded almost the same as the original ("Fat Bottomed Girls"), and in others were the sound of somebody seemingly attempting to destroy something that didn't need remixing in the first place ("Bicycle Race").
In some instances, the Hollywood reissues included genuine rarities. "Queen" included an outtake from the early years called "Mad The Swine", although the track had appeared as a B-side in the UK before 1991 and also appears (in slightly remixed form) on the recent Island reissue. It also included a re-recorded version of "Keep Yourself Alive", taped in 75, which is now also available on the expanded UK version of "A Night At The Opera". The b-side of "Seven Seas Of Rhye", "See What A Fool", was on the "Queen II" reissue, and also appears on the recent Island reissue.
"Hot Space" included the non-album 45, "Under Pressure", whilst "The Works" was the first of the Hollywood reissues to not include bonus remixes, but instead offered up the B-side of "Radio Ga Ga", "I Go Crazy", and a couple of previously issued 12" mixes. "The Miracle" included four extras compared to the UK vinyl pressing, three of which had also made the UK CD edition.
The overall feeling, though, for anybody who had these albums already, was that they were now being asked to shell out for some slightly dubious bonus material. Queen weren't the only act doing this at the time (some 1991 remixes turned up on a couple of David Bowie reissues the same year), but the lack of genuine rarities on the Queen CD's was an unavoidable issue. Suffice to say, when the UK Island reissues program kicked off this year, these bonus remixes were absent.
I have listed below the important 1991 reissues, which still contain either exclusive material, or included important extra tracks when compared to their UK CD edition as at the end of 2010. Now that all of the fifteen studio LP's have been re-released, the definitive Queen albums will - in the first instance - be the double-CD editions on Island, whilst the six other "live" albums - if you can find them - have the same track listings that they always did. The list below of the UK albums is based on the most recent pressings of each.
For the latest batch of reissues, the choice of bonus tracks - at times - seems a bit poor. Indeed, as briefly touched on earlier, the reissue of "A Kind Of Magic" omits one of the original exclusive bonus tracks, whilst "The Works" and "The Miracle" seem to offer no unreleased material, as far as I can make out. Try before you buy, etc.

The reissue of "News Of The World" included just one extra track, a remix of "We Will Rock You" that later turned up as a B-side of the "No One But You" single, and the reissue of "A Kind Of Magic" neglects to include the UK bonus tracks, so is a slightly pointless release. It does include the 12" mix of "One Vision", for those of you who like to own such things on Compact Disc, rather than vinyl.
There are plenty of other Queen releases - numerous "Greatest Hits" sets, several box sets and a series of downloadable "official" bootlegs, whilst the current reissue campaign has being plugged via a series of "best of the album tracks" collections under the "Deep Cuts" title.

text: All That Glitters Is Gold 11 February 2018 comments (0) I sat down one evening and started cutting out hearts from all the beautiful sparkly HTV (heat transfer vinyl) I had in my stash. I LOVE the way I've been seeing gold and silver mixed in to everyday living, and especially on pastels. So I pulled my favorite pastel Solid Flat Weave Towels off the shelf and heat pressed these gorgeous hearts! Here's the short and sweet list of supplies and the super easy instructions: --Cotton Flat Weave Towels you can find here --Glitterflex Ultra Heat Transfer Vinyl in Light Gold from www.crystaleyecandy.com --Heart design for your vinyl cutting machine (we use Silhouette Cameo) --Pressing Pillow (this is optional, but extremely helpful for getting a really nice transfer) You can find the pressing pillows here: ProWorld Pressing Pillows --Teflon Pressing Sheet - A must-have for heat tranfer applications! Available here Instructions: Cut the hearts out of the glitter HTV. I cut mine to be 4.5 inches wide if you would like to copy what I did. Determine which end of the towel is the bottom side (there's a hanging tab on the top, so you want to make sure to put the design on the bottom half). If I'm doing the same design on multiple towels, I line up all three towels next to each other and make sure I position the design at the same spot across all three so they look the same. You can use Heat Tape to hold the designs in place--love this product! Making a "towel sandwich", layer a pressing pillow down onto the heat press, put the towel on top of it, and a teflon pressing sheet on top to protect the towel during the transfer. Transfer the design. I used heat press settings of 325 degree temp and pressed for about 18 seconds. I removed the clear carrier sheet from the design, then turned the towel over the pressed again for about another 18 seconds to really pull that vinyl into the towel. _____ I couldn't stop at just kitchen towels---I made this ADORABLE onesie! Now to find a little baby girl to wear it---everyone I know has boys!

However, every product we feature is one we've bought and used ourselves and LOVE it, which is why we are recommending it. All opinions are our own!)

- Introduction:Protecting the Global CommonsThe Challenge of Collective Action
Four of the nine planetary boundaries—climate, biodiversity, land-use change, and biogeochemical cycles—that have enabled humanity to thrive for so long have been breached. Our planet's current trajectory of environmental demise can be seen as the classic tragedy of the commons, whereby collective resources are more easily exploited than conserved, ignored than managed, and depleted than replenished. One of our greatest challenges today in the new age of the Anthropocene is to design governance structures capable of safeguarding our global commons from further compromise.
The global commons has traditionally included the high oceans, the atmosphere, outer space, and the Antarctic, in other words, the common heritage of mankind. More recently, resources of interest or value to the welfare of the community of nations—such as tropical rain forests and biodiversity—have also been included among the traditional set of global commons. Whether it's land or sea, or indeed the earth's atmosphere, these shared resources are under increasing threat. Extinction rates are at 10 to over 100 times their natural level, the chemistry of the oceans is changing faster than at any point in perhaps 300 million years, and we have the highest level of greenhouse gases in our atmosphere in at least 800,000 years. While many countries have independently compromised the planet's capacity to sustain us, no single country has the means to remedy the situation.
In recognition of this fact, the development of international environmental agreements has proliferated since the 1972 Stockholm Conference. However, the [End Page 3] complexities of governing the global commons mean that environmental agreements are not a panacea for global commons issues. Often, they are slow to produce the desired effects, tend to the lowest common denominator, and either lack or have inadequate monitoring and enforcement. Another major challenge of managing the global commons is the sheer scale of some of these resources. Take the high seas as an example. The high seas make up about two-thirds of the ocean and are so far from land that they fall outside national jurisdictions. Despite being vulnerable to pollution, over-fishing, and other commercial activities, only a relatively small area of the high seas is protected, which is why the recent declaration to make Antarctica's Ross Sea a Marine Protected Area (MPA) met with such celebration.
A number of legal and institutional frameworks do exist to deal with the environmental issues of the global commons, including the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea, the Antarctic Treaty Systems, and the UN Environment's Regional Seas Conventions and Protocols, but fundamental gaps and inconsistencies remain that require immediate attention. Closing these gaps requires new thinking and solutions that go beyond the old model of development, beyond environmentalism, and beyond traditional economic thinking. Two events in 2015 indicate that a shift in the way we think is taking place. The first is the agreement to pursue the United Nations' universal Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), 17 holistic and inclusive goals that call for protection of the Earth system. The second is the Paris Agreement on Climate Change (UNFCCC 2015)—an agreement with the aim of rapidly decarbonizing the global economy to keep the global average temperature to well below 2°C above pre-industrial levels and limit the increase to 1.5°C. In addition, in 2015 the United Nations General Assembly established the Ad Hoc Open-Ended Informal Working Group to study issues and make recommendations relating to the conservation and sustainable use of marine biological diversity beyond areas of national jurisdiction. The Convention on Biological Diversity is also in the process of developing scientific criteria for biodiversity conservation in areas beyond national jurisdiction, which will serve as an adjunct to hoped-for national commitments to designate at least 10 percent of national territorial waters as Marine Protected Areas by 2020 (compared to less than 3 percent today). These agreements and ambitions are a response to the profound realization that Earth is reaching a saturation point. Energy, water, food, and urban systems are the significant pressure points driving exponential change and are priority areas to search...

What finally clicked was realizing I wasn't having enough fun in my life. My spiritual work had become purely WORK (I mean, it's challenging and all but it shouldn't be drudgery!). I needed play and spontaneity! I needed that inner child to do her little dance again.
Are you running the old fear program? (Aka clippy from windows 97)
What keeps me listening to fear when I know it has no business being in my world? Habit mostly. The brain has been running this old crappy program that's sorely in need of an update. It's like I've still got Windows 97 running with Clippy telling me to be AFRAID, be VERY AFRAID! (Side note: did you know his official name is Clippit?)
I want to give everyone a big hug
So many people are passing through hard times. Pretty much everyone in my life actually. And lots of people who I don't know, too. I want to hug each and everyone of you (whether I know you or not - I am originally from the Midwest after all. We hug everyone!)
Down with the patriarchy! (Oh wait you mean it's inside me??)
I spent a lot of time in therapy, women studies courses and chat sessions about how we can dismantle the patriarchy to discover I wasn't fully getting it. Finally exploring these questions as part of my spiritual work made me see it in a whole knew way.

Ayurveda methods to restore balance
If you are looking for ways to nurture your divine feminine essence, Ayurveda has so many beautiful ideas that do just that.
The call to purify
A brief story...remember how I said that I made it my goal to restore my vitality and joy? Once I made that choice I was shown all sorts of resources/supports/people that appeared like bread crumbs from the universe. One of them was a podcast I heard with an interview with a woman named Acharya Shunyas, an Ayurveda scholar/author who was being interviewed about a book she wrote. In the middle of the interview I heard her say, "Joy and Vitality are your BIRTHRIGHT!" My jaw dropped to the floor. I knew this in my core but hearing it from her gave me so much hope! It was like a signpost -- yes, Sarah, keep following this path!

Block Management at Pastor Real Estate
Pastor Real Estate manage a variety of unique properties throughout Central London, ranging from bespoke conversions to large purpose built apartment buildings.
Block Management is an often overlooked, but essential part of Property Management. In its most basic definition; it is the management of the common/shared areas of a residential building as defined by the terms of the Lease. In principle this sounds straightforward, though in reality, it is far more complex and involves not only the physical maintenance of the property as a whole, but also prudent financial and client management to the highest possible standard.
Through our recent acquisition of a specialist Block Management company, Pastor Real Estate are experts in Block Management. The recognised specialists in Chelsea, Belgravia & Knightsbridge, Kensington, South Kensington, Earls Court and Mayfair & Marylebone with over 250 units under management in Central London.
To lead the way in the management of prime London residential blocks in these areas, we assign a highly qualified and dedicated Block Manager to each property.
Quick to respond to issues, these managers are located in our central London headquarters in Mayfair meaning they are only minutes away from our managed properties. Our block managers generally manage much smaller portfolios than other block management agents allowing leaseholders to benefit from a much more personalised and responsive service.
We go to great lengths to establish and nurture extremely good working relationships with all of our clients.
An entirely different kind of service than the more rigid and often 'faceless production-line services' offered by larger block management companies and the more traditional high street surveying practices.
At Pastor Real Estate, our Block Management accounts are fully audited - and our wide network of reliable and experienced contractors come fully-approved.
We view each Leaseholder as an integral part of the property management process and by 'going the extra mile' to establish such good working relationships, our experience is that all parties work and communicate much more effectively.
As part of our standard services, we will provide quarterly financial reports detailing Income and Expenditure, Budget Vs Actual expenditure, balances held at bank, Leaseholder arrears, etc., all of which will be provided electronically, or by post if preferred. All information will also be available on our dedicated Tenant/Leaseholder Portal.
Company meetings would be attended on a quarterly basis, including Annual General Meeting, Directors Meetings and Extraordinary General Meetings.
We offer a dedicated Out of Hours service to all of our clients, providing peace of mind that emergency situations will be dealt with by a team of property professionals outside of our normal working hours.
To further complement our block management services, we also offer comprehensive Company Secretarial services, ensuring the statutory requirements of the company are met for and on behalf of the Company Directors.
The list below features some of the more 'visible' aspects of the services we administer on behalf of our clients, though this list is by no means exhaustive: -
|Cleaning / Window cleaning
|Cleaning and maintenance of internal communal areas, including windows
|Gardening & Grounds maintenance
|Maintenance to all external common parts, including Play Areas, Flood defences and drainage channels
|Repairs to the fabric of the buildings, fixtures, fittings and finishes, in and about the communal areas
|Parking control
|Administration of new or existing parking control scheme to preserve the available parking for all residents
|Vehicle gates
|Ensuring vehicle gates are operational and any necessary repairs are arranged accordingly. This includes an annual maintenance and contract reviews
|Electricity to power any lighting in internal and external communal areas of the Development, and any communal water and gas supplies
|Management of on-site staff
|Full management of any Caretakers / Concierge staff including day to day liaison, annual appraisals, wages, pension, etc.
|Leisure facility maintenance
|Ongoing management of Swimming Pools, Saunas, Steam Rooms, Gyms and/or other types of leisure equipment situated at the property, including testing & compliance
And equally as important, though sometimes less visible: -
|Health & Safety
|Ensuring safety standards are met in the internal and external communal areas by undertaking regular Health & Safety / Fire Risk and Asbestos surveys where required
|Ensuring that the buildings, external areas and any installations such as gates, lifts, etc., are insured in accordance with the terms of the leases
|Out of hours cover
|Providing reactive repair services outside of normal working hours (after 18:00 and before 09:00 on weekdays, 24/7 during weekends and bank holidays)
|Tenant Portal
|Enabling Directors and Leaseholders to logon in order to review financial information, make service charge payments, read the latest notices, etc.
|Calculating a proposed annual service charge budget based upon the estimated and actual expenditure for each financial year
|Issuing Service Charge demands
|Obtaining approval from the directors of your Management Company and issuing demands for payment of service charge based the approved budget
|Keeping records
|Maintaining leaseholder service charge accounts, contact information, accounts, etc.
|Client Liaison
|Liaising with leaseholders and owners and responding to queries when reasonably required
|Arrears recovery / Credit Control
|Ensuring outstanding Service Charge funds are recovered from any Leaseholders in arrears as expediently as possible (in line with current procedures)
|Contract procurement
|Reviewing all existing maintenance contracts and undertaking tender review exercises where required
|Company Secretarial
|Administration of all Company requirements, including acting as Registered Office of the Company, Submitting Company Accounts and annual Confirmation Statement
We believe that the right level of expertise is vital for the successful management of any property, that is why our team consists of the best people within the industry. While our team may be small when compared with some other agents, we offer a tailored, boutique management service to all of our clients.

Walker, Weldy
- Christopher Devine
baseball player and activist, was born Welday Wilberforce Walker in Steubenville, Ohio. He was the fifth of six children born to Moses W. Walker, a physician and minister. He was reared, along with the rest of his siblings, by Caroline (O'Harra) Walker, but Weldy's death certificate lists his mother as Maria Simpson. This information was supplied to the coroner by Walker's nephew Thomas Gibson, who in the early 1920s claimed not to know Weldy's mother's identity. It is unclear whether the change in Gibson's information evidences newfound knowledge, a disclosed Walker family secret, or fiction. Walker's first name likely paid homage to the local pioneer Alexander Welday (although when and why Walker changed its spelling is unknown), and his middle name likely honored the English abolitionist William Wilberforce.
Steubenville where Walker would spend most of his life was a racially progressive town known for ...

Kim is gorgeous. However, this is SO not a flattering angle for her... or outfit for that matter. There's a bagillion better pics they could have chosen. Her body is soooo smokin' and that angle/outfit does her and her tiny little waist & glorious big booty no justice. I would kill to have a body as hot as hers. lol.

kim's ass is obnoxious. who in their right mind would find something like that attractive? i'm not a big paris hilton fan but one of her best lines has got to be about kim's ass being like a bunch of cottage cheese stuffed into a garbage bag!
BP - 12 years ago
I think she's pretty but HIGHLY overrated. She has an okay body, the only reason she's so popular is because she has a big butt.
abi - 12 years ago
hey hey, more cushion for the pushin guys. i bet the guys would love to get their hands on that booty! lol
sARA - 12 years ago
She is absolutely gorgeous, but that booty is out of control! Mine is 1/2 that size and I have trouble finding jeans that fit. I don't know how she does it. I'll give her credit, though, she works it well!

Chelsea Handler
Better than: Sitting on your coslopus at home and watching Chelsea Lately with your little nugget.
Chelsea Handler strode onto the Masonic Auditorium stage Friday night in fuck-me boots, impossibly tight jeans, and a gray and white silk blouse. While the amped-up crowd cheered and screamed, she grabbed her mike and threw the stand aside. With a moue of distaste, she used her red plastic cup – presumably filled with vodka, her beverage of choice – to knock a bottle of water from a stool onto the ground. "Won't be needing that tonight," her look said.
Handler started the show by apologizing for letting herself be booked into a venue that doesn't serve alcohol, and said she left a voicemail for Mayor Gavin Newsom to see if he could rectify the situation. Alas, Hizzoner seemed not to have gotten the message, so "I'll make it up to you," she promised.
Hecklers and rabid fans alike were treated to withering stares or sharp putdowns as she stalked the stage. However, Handler's disdain seemed to come and go. When audience members yelled that they loved her, sometimes she hissed, "Shut up," other times she offered a demure "Thank you." She teased a group of women in the front row and told them she loved them, but while they were still squealing and applauding, she walked away and rolled her eyes to the rest of the audience. We laughed at her, and by extension at them. We felt slightly mean doing it, but she clearly didn't.
