New York City is a busy center for many industries including fashion, financial markets and major entertainment which plays a dramatic role in its immense amount of private jet clients and operators. Having over 8 million residents to serve makes for many different airports required to handle the masses that fly every day of the year. Major airports are plentiful including those such as JFK, Laguardia and Newark International. However, the most convenient NYC air charter airports are those that are smaller, private and conveniently located a short distance from downtown.
When choosing the best NYC air charter airport for your private jet arrival or departure, it is important to not only look at the amenities but also how scheduling for your flight to take off or land at one of these can save you time. Even just a few minutes can mean the difference between a meeting missed and a meeting held. With fewer delays, congestion and lower landing fees, these top 4 are our favorites in the area to save you time, and money.
KTEB – New Jersey – Teterboro Airport
Teterboro, often seen as the most popular NYC air charter airport, is also the oldest with its inception dating back to 1919. KTEB is located on Hwy-1 across from George Washington Bridge and a short way from the Lincoln Tunnel. Although it does not service commercial airplanes the airport serves many New York City private jet charter clients from industries ranging from big financial members to other private or individuals in the Manhattan area. Teterboro Airport has two runways, one being 7000' N to S runway and a 6000' SW to NE runway.
Teterboro has over 5 FBOs, several of which are also operators, located around the entire field. Each has its amenities catering to clients and easily accessible from many entry points. KTEB also hosts many transient aircraft along with its 94 charter aircraft, and several other Part 91 jets of all types and sizes. The airport is often used as a stop for local operators from other fields awaiting their next missions.
KHPN – White Plains – Westchester County Airport
Located in Northern Westchester Country, White Plains offers easy access to clients heading in or out via major roadways such as Hutchinson Pkwy. Home to multiple airways and a commercial terminal, as well as holding the most Part 91 aircraft in the country, give KHPN an advantage for hosting many private travelers. Many fortune 500 companies fly from here. Influencing its private jet operations allows private jet users the upper hand when it comes to operations and issues.
Not only does this make decisions regarding flights much simpler and expedited but also its scenic layout is a big draw for companies, operators and flyers throughout the world. The airport services areas such as Greenwich, and Stafford Connecticut. With it's lower popularity in comparison to KTEB, private jet operators often will book aircraft at a decent discount for those travelers switching from the number one private airport.
FRG – Farmingdale – Republic Airport
As they are within proximity to each other, we felt it appropriate to list these two together.
Farmingdale was built in 1927 by Sherman Fairchild, an aircraft manufacturer. It lies off hwy 111 and like Islip, services clients in the Long Island and Eastern Boroughs of New York. FRG is a completely executive field that provides quicker landings and takeoffs than the larger commercial site at Islip. There are 2 major national FBOs at Farmingdale as well as 45 Part 135 aircraft. With its two jet length runways, Republic Airport offers great access in all winds and inclement weather.
ISP – Islip – Long Island MacArthur Airport
Long Island MacArthur Airport was founded in the 1940s to supplement the war effort. It is located conveniently on the I-495 corridor and services both private and commercial flights. Islip is home base to 28 Part 135 aircraft including several newer Legacy 600 aircraft that are a slightly lower-cost alternative to Gulfstream GIV type products. Another convenience of Islip is its larger size and multiple runways including several jet length and one turboprop runway.
So why not one of the major airports?
Often, many people do not consider these airports when they think of flying into or out of New York City, however, for private jet charter clients, these are the best in the state. With their proximity to the city as well as less of a wait time to take off, passengers can often save on time and money by arriving or departing from any of these mentioned.

Sri Lanka: Social media access restored April 30 /update 1
Government lifts ban on social media platforms April 30; additional security measures remain in place
Read all related news alert(s):
Sri Lanka: Curfew renewed in Eastern province cities May 1 /update 2
Sri Lanka: Authorities warn of risk of further attacks April 29
President Maithripala Sirisena called for the immediate lifting of a ban on social media and messaging platforms on Tuesday, April 30, that had been in place since the Easter bombings on Sunday, April 21. NetBlocks, an internet access monitoring site, confirmed the restoration of access to popular sites such as Facebook, YouTube, WhatsApp, and Viber. The government has also ceased implementing nationwide curfews as of Tuesday, though curfews remained in effect for three Ampara district (Eastern province) towns until at least 06:00 (local time) on Wednesday, May 1. Further curfews may be announced for those locations, Kalmunai, Sammanthurai, and Chavalakade, in the coming hours. Additionally, the Catholic Church in Sri Lanka would resume public services on Sunday, May 5, according to Cardinal Malcolm Ranjith. Heightened security measures will be in place at services, which are expected to be limited in number.
Other security measures remain in effects as tensions stay high and officials warn of future possible attacks as of Wednesday, May 1. At least 150 people have been arrested in connection with the attacks and security operations are ongoing. There have also been some reports of retaliatory mob violence against some business owners. US and UK governments have warned citizens to reconsider travel or postpone nonessential travel. Increased deployment of security personnel, road blocks, checkpoints, and other security measures are likely throughout the country in the coming days and weeks, particularly in Colombo, at and on routes to Bandaranaike International Airport (CMB), and in eastern cities, including Batticaloa and in Ampara district.
A series of coordinated bombings struck Sri Lanka on Easter Sunday (April 21), killing at least 253 people, including 40 foreign nationals, and wounding approximately 500 others. Churches and prominent hotels in Colombo, Negombo, and Batticaloa were targeted in the attacks. Authorities blamed a local Islamist group, National Thowheeth Jama'ath, for the attacks, claiming that the group planned the bombings with assistance from an international terrorist organization. The Islamic State (IS) later claimed responsibility for the attack via its media arm on April 23.
Security forces conducted a raid on a suspected safe house in Sammanthurai on Friday, April 26, resulting in three suicide bombers to detonate their explosives inside the compound. At least 15 people were killed in the incident. Other security operations in Ampara district yielded large amounts of explosives and other bomb-making materials.
Individuals in or traveling to Sri Lanka, particularly Colombo, are advised to monitor developments to the situation, anticipate heightened security measures and associated disruptions, report suspicious behavior and objects to the police, avoid high-profile targets (e.g. churches and other places of worship, government buildings, popular tourist sites or areas frequented by Westerners, etc.), and adhere to instructions issued by local authorities and their home governments.
Travelers flying to or from CMB are advised to allow at least four hours to pass through security checkpoints and anticipate increased security and possible delays.

A Hand Up by Debbie Dallesandro
With so many dogs needing adoption, fostering and just plain saving it became very apparent that we, as a rescue, were doing our best but just could not get ahead of demand. The countless emails asking our rescue to help and having to turn them away because we did not have the room or enough fosters to make it happen. The faces of dogs, cats and the trauma that they had gone through because their owner/s gave their pets up because they were too old, or could not manage the vet bills or worse, abused the animals and they were taken away. After a while, it became heart wrenching and depressing to not be able to help them all.
I just thought there must be a better way. That is when I came up with the idea of A Hand Up. An organization that would help senior citizens keep their beloved pet. Over 50% of the dogs/cats in shelters/rescues are a result of a senior citizen having to give up their pet due to their inability to financially feed or care for their pet. It is not because the owner does not love them, in most cases it is the only family they have, but it may mean that the owner goes without much needed medication or food for themselves to try and take care of their pet. The owner eventually must give up the only family that they have.
Under the leadership of Gray Face Acres Rescue, we developed the program A Hand Up, and are currently helping families stay together.
As the program grows the plan is to continue to provide food and help with vet bills but also provide a team of people that would visit the homes and check on the pet and the owner providing support, making sure the pet is healthy and happy. Also, if the owner is temporarily unable to take care of the pet, we can find a temporary foster home for the pet until the owner is able to provide that loving and caring home for their pet again.
Our true wish is to reduce the number of dogs/cats going into shelters. While we cannot completely avoid dogs/cats going into shelters, we can address a root cause of a lot of wonderful and loved pets being given up because of a temporary or permanent situation.

I don't know about you, but I find social media and the 24/7 news cycle exhausting. Many studies have been done on the addictive nature of both and I can personally testify that I was addicted to Second Life for many years.
The only people making money on social media platforms are the people behind them – Mark Zuckerberg's net worth is 70 Billion dollars. (see the video at the bottom of this post) Take a moment and let that sink-in –$70,000,000,000.00 He made all that money based on our willingness to volunteer our information to him. He takes our information and sells it to advertisers, mega-corporations and (some speculate) foreign governments for the sole purpose of manipulating our society. (the 2016 election for example)
Our addiction to social media is groomed and fed by sophisticated algorithms intended to keep us addicted by giving us a little hit of dopamine at specifically and strategically placed times during our engagement with it. The more we share on social media, the more we feed the data base the algorithms are using to calculate how to best manipulate our behavior – be it political, consumerist or societal.
I use Facebook, Google, Amazon, YouTube, et al. But I no longer make them part of my staple daily diet. Why? Because it's dangerous and addictive and it keeps me from experiencing the real joy that exists in the real world I live in.
We only have a finite amount of time on this planet – take a moment and consider that the next time you choose to be seduced by the escapism offered by technology.
Until next time …

Bijeljina will become a Great Place to Live.
Objectives and results

Six types of pony you'll find in every riding school
Posted in Flatwork
You're bound to find your fave pony in this list of six types of pony every riding school has – but which personality will he be?
Mr Rush
Super-speedy, he just doesn't understand the meaning of slow! As soon as you pop into trot he's off and once you're in canter there really is no stopping him!
Once you've got the measure of Mr Rush and know he's not going to hurt you, it's possible to convince him to steady up. However, deep down, he's always thinking about his dream career as a racing pony so keep your wits about you, especially when you're heading for the back of the ride.
Miss Clingy
She loves nothing more than to be right up next to her pals in the ride – often a lot closer than they're comfortable with!
The trick is not letting Miss Clingy get too close to the other ponies in the first place, otherwise you've got to put a lot of leg effort in to pull them apart again. Once you've got her going solo, she works like a dream.
Sir Slow
Safe as houses, Sir Slow just doesn't see the need for speed, ever. Your legs will feel like they're about to drop off at the end of the lesson, yet you still barely made it out of trot.
It'll take a little working out but if you find the right buttons he will go – honestly!
Chief of On-Edge
Always looking for something that might be out to get him, this pony can need some extra reassurance.
The key with him is to stay calm and not be sucked in to his worrying ways. He'll take confidence from you, so show him it's all okay and he'll be able to start concentrating on what he's supposed to be doing.
Mrs Mind-Of-Her-Own
It's like she doesn't even know you're there or if she does, she does a very good job of ignoring you. You think you're heading for A, but Mrs Mind-of-her-own is taking you in completely the opposite direction.
Be firm and consistent so that she learns what's not okay. Think ahead, too, and you might be able to predict where her mind is taking her next!
The King
He's often referred to as a total pro and it's easy to see why – he knows his job like the back of his hoof! There's always one pony everyone would be happy to ride and he's it!
The one thing to be aware of when riding The King is that he'll only perform if your aids are spot on. Get them wrong and everyone will know, but get them right and he'll make you feel like Charlotte Dujardin!
Which is your fave pony? Let us know in the comments below!

For a couple of days now I have started to do some research for the genre of horror, which is the chosen genre for our main production.
Horror films have increasingly changed and have become scarier and scarier. But where did it all start?
The first known records of horror films where in the 1930s with films such as Frankenstein and Dracula. At the time of the recordings the films, they were intended to "scare the life" out of the audience and at this time the graphics and sound effects where very scary and obviously effective. However when you watch the films know, from the 1930s, audiences wouldn't be as scared because the graphics aren't that great and compared to films now, they are not that scary.
But over the decades in the 50s, 60s and 70s they started to be more graphical and horrifying for the audience. This era saw the first attempt at zombie-horror films such as Night of the Living Dead and I believe that this is what kicked off the true horror and zombie horror films that are so common today. A common theme in horror films are dark lighting, music of suspense and sudden appearances of scary things that will cause the audience to jump or scream in a way that will make other people feel uncomfortable and start to believe that the films are in fact real.
In the 90s/00s the level of horror has increased to such a level that some critics have wanted spme films banned and they have achieved this through films such as The Human Centipede 2 which have been so horrific that they can't be shown. Because of the level of technology increasing there have been "supernatural" horror films such as the paranormal activity series and the latest film The Conjuring which have been seen as really horrific that you will find it hard to sleep.

Christophe Roussel Boutique et Bar à Chocolat (CLOSED)
Time Out says
Friendly warning! We're working hard to be accurate. But these are unusual times, so please check that venues remain open.
With the bright colours of his décor, Christophe Roussel brings a certain modernity to the often kitsch art of chocolate-making. Novel spins on the usual product range are the order of the day here. You'll find not only several varieties of hot chocolate to sample in store, but also ganaches inspired by Roussel's travels (including a recent trip to the south of India) – a gimmick that gives rise to all manner of curiously spiced chocolates treats. He's even been known to mould his chocolate into cartoon characters to mark special occasions. Be sure to try his innovative macaroons, especially the savoury ones.

Day 318
Greyhound buses suck. There's no TV, no radio, not much legroom, and they don't give you food or drinks, even for rides of more than a day. The cheapest buses in Chile and Argentina give you all of those things, and they cost way less. Getting on a Greyhound bus showed me why most Americans refuse to ride buses despite high gas prices. If only they had nicer buses here, maybe some people would stop driving so much.
For the first few hours of my ride today, I got to listen to the driver talk about how tired he was. I guess getting on the intercom and telling us all that he was falling asleep was his way of not falling asleep. At that point, I didn't care if the driver was awake or asleep, though. I just wanted to get some sleep for myself, but I couldn't with the intercom going constantly.
Once we got to Orlando, my outlook improved greatly. The people became friendlier, the scenery was nice, and I was able to stretch out across two seats because my new bus was only half full. I started to remember that there are lots of good things about this country. Everything is immaculate, there's toilet paper in the bathrooms and you can actually throw it into the toilet, you can drink water right out of the tap, and the road system is excellent. You can just get on the freeway here and drive all day. That simply isn't possible in South America, even in the richer countries. Prices even got a little more reasonable once I got outside of the Miami area.
I rode the bus all day and made several more stops: Atlanta, Chattanooga, Nashville, and lots of other places in between. I met a lot of people on the bus, including several truck drivers who were on their way to pick up their trucks. I liked the camaraderie of my fellow bus drivers. It brought me out of my initial culture shock rather quickly.
The day flew by quickly, despite spending it on a cramped bus. By the time night fell, I was in Kentucky about to head into Tennessee. Only a few more states to go until I got home.

The Syrian Arab Army (SAA) and Hezbollah, backed up by Russian warplanes and Iranian unmanned combat aerial vehicles, are advancing towards the ISIS-held town of al-Bukamal in the province of Deir Ezzor.
Recently, the SAA and Hezbollah have liberated Shammas, Baktal and nearby points and deployed in about 53 km from the town. A Russian attack submarine also supported the avdance with cruise missile strikes. The missiles destroyed ISIS HQs and a weapons depot.
Al-Bukamal is located near the Iraqi border, on the highway between the Syrian city of Deir Ezzor and the Iraqi capital of Baghdad. Both the Syrian government and the US-led coalition see al-Bukamal as a key defense point that will allow to establish control over the strategic highway.

HCM City faces high risks of land erosion in rainy season
HCM City faces high risks of land erosion in the rainy season due to invasion of river banks, canals, illegal sand mining, together with climate change causing rains, storms and rising sea levels.
Land erosion in Ho Chi Minh City (Photo: VNA)
HCM City (VNA) – Ho Chi Minh City faces high risks of land erosion in the rainy season due to invasion of river banks, canals, illegal sand mining, together with climate change causing rains, storms and rising sea levels.
The city has nearly 1,000 kilometres of rivers, including about 800 kilometres of inland waterways. Fast urbanisation has made the invasion of canals and rivers more severe. In the first half this year, 120 cases of river and canals invasion have yet to be handled.
Four serious land erosion incidents occurred in a row along Rach Tom canal in Nhon Duc and Hiep Phuoc communes, Nha Be district; and Ben Binh Dong Street in district 8.
Bui Xuan Cuong, Director of the municipal Department of Transport, said by July 1, there were 40 erosion spots.
Vice Chairman of the municipal People's Committee Le Thanh Liem has assigned the municipal Department of Transport to work with the People's Committees of districts on classifying erosion and implementing projects to protect river banks, canals and sea dikes.
Warning signs must be planted at vulnerable spots and buoys should be used to ensure safety for vehicles passing through erosion sites. Publicity campaigns are needed to raise awareness of land erosion to minimise damages.
The municipal People's Committee requested the city's Committee for Natural Disaster Prevention and Search and Rescue to detail measures to prevent and control land erosion along river banks and beaches.
The Department of Agriculture and Rural Development was asked to effectively implement planning schemes on residential allocation to prevent natural disasters from 2011 – 2015 with a vision to 2020, while the Department of Construction was requested to handle residential resettlement and invasion of safety corridors along rivers and canals.
The city also asked districts with high risks of erosion to prevent citizens from returning to erosion sites.-VNA

BirdieBox taking off in swag space
If you work in sports, you've been "gifted."
Call it glom, chum or swag, it's as integral a part of the business as corporate suites, golf tournaments, and private pregame parties. At any of those, you've received gifts emblazoned with logos of the event you're attending. And those in the C-suite receive more swag than anyone.
Rocket Mortgage Classic Tournament Director Rob Croll has been handling corporate gifting programs for decades. "It's just an expected part of our industry, and it's still so important," he said.
Veering sharply from business-to-consumer to business-to-business over the past few years, BirdieBox transformed from a subscription box company into a concierge gifting service allowing its sports, golf and corporate clients to outsource that vital function.
"We've all seen conference rooms filled with people who should be doing their jobs — instead they're building goodie bags,'' said Michael Myers, BirdieBox's chief strategy officer. "Gifting touches their most important customers, so we were sure there was a business there.''
And there was: BirdieBox has doubled its revenue each of the past three years. During this season of giving, the company will do about a third of its annual business, servicing events like a dozen college bowl games (up from two last year). At those events and others, it provides "gifting suites'' for VIPs, players and high-end ticket package buyers.
CEO Pat DePirro founded BirdieBox in 2014 as the first golf-themed subscription box. His "aha" moment came when subscribers inquired about gifts for their golf clubs' member/guest tournaments. DePirro soon realized that servicing a business-to-business function with the same products could generate more revenue and better margins without the pain of servicing thousands of individual subscribers.
The seven-figure BirdieBox subscription business was folded in 2016. DePirro went hard after golf tournaments, every one of which has a pro-am in which participants customarily receive swag.
Early wins with the AT&T Byron Nelson and the RBC Heritage tournaments, a "shopping experience" that included several hundred guests and 5,000 different SKUs of products, helped establish the new model. DePirro, a former MLB Advanced Media marketer, got business gifting sponsors at MLB's jewel events. Myers came on as an equity partner in 2017.
Rob Sullivan, senior vice president of sales and service at Madison Square Garden Co., first discovered BirdieBox in early 2018 at the National Sports Forum. Now, he's using the company for an array of gifting, including sponsors, suite holders, client prospecting and holiday gifts.
"Not only is gifting expected, there's so much competition here in sports and entertainment, even gifting gets competitive," Sullivan said. "We need to differentiate and this is clearly one way we've been able to accomplish that."
Myers said the business is split in thirds among golf, corporate clients such as Delta and Pepsi, and more than 75 sports properties, including MLB, the PGA Tour and the Los Angeles Dodgers.
BirdieBox has been servicing the 500 or so high-end ticket package buyers at the College Football Playoff since last season. Ben Habern, CFP assistant director of marketing and strategic partnerships called the decision a no-brainer. "Before, we sourced and packed our own gifts," he said. "They handle and drop-ship everything, which is one less headache."
BirdieBox, which also provides "virtual gift portals," will ship more than 100,000 boxes this year and each of them, like many of the high-end items inside, are personalized. Corporate gifting in the U.S. is a $125 billion business and "the unboxing experience" is critical, Myers said.
Early on, BirdieBox bought equipment for its 70,000-square-foot production and distribution center just outside of Miami, allowing it to embroider, emboss, etch or engrave a logo on nearly any material. Meanwhile, it formed relationships with brands including JBL, Lululemon, Ray-Ban and Tumi.
"Lots of gift companies offer generic stuff, which keeps prices down, but we want to be known as a premium brand," said MSG's Sullivan. "They're great listeners and always on trend and on brand." An example: MSG-branded Apple AirPods sent to clients after an initial pitch meeting "to show them we are listening," Sullivan said.
The company also makes custom commemoratives, like a Chicago Cubs cutting board made partly from a dugout bench. While there is some "instant gratification" gifting on site, most is shipped within a month, with personalization on the products and the box. Some come with a small LED screen that plays a video message from the giver.
BirdieBox clients pay what Myers calls an "end-to-end charge" for the service. However, much of the company's margin comes from a combination of the volume pricing it gets from "brand partners" and that many manufacturers will discount further, knowing their products are going to C-suiters.
Myers said access to luxury products with high perceived value is fundamental to his business strategy. So too are the margins provided by in-house customization, personalization and luxury/personalized packaging, along with running and owning his own warehouse and logistics.
When BirdieBox transformed its business, it also changed its tagline to "Make Gifting An Experience." That holds from end to end: a surprise for clients, and a warehouse where workers wear white gloves.
"What we're really selling is the ability to make clients feel more important and either create or enhance connections to them," Myers said. "That's something everybody in business needs."

Cosmic Menu of Happiness
One person's point of viewing.
Monday, November 21, 2005
Happiness is....
Happiness is in the moment. No need to look for the big meanings. A Sunday morning, all of us in the bed under the duvet, watching football focus and feasting on malt loaf and fruit and cups of tea. What more could a girl want?
And later that day, the first batch of mince pies of the season. Very nice too. I made a huge batch of pastry up and divided into four so that I could make little pies whenever I felt like it. So, just to be repetitive, more pies tonight after a challenging day at work.

Pitch & Post is working on a number of brand projects at the moment and the disparity in the information bloggers are prepared to disclose about their traffic and community size is pretty alarming. Even more so, the programs bloggers are using to record their traffic varied between 4 or 5 methods (not to mention the "guestimates" many thought were acceptable to reveal). As we talk about time and time again on Pitch & Post; size isn't everything and its disappointing that bloggers are so coy to "show their cards." Lets remember the point of blogs; "a way of an individual talking from a personal perspective to an engaged micro community" (so says Sheryl Sandberg who rumour has it, knows her stuff).
I'm not sure what the issue at hand is, and hoping it's ignorance or lack of knowledge rather than anything more sinister – but regardless, it's prompted me to write this "how to" in the hope it will give some of you a helping hand to ensure you are giving numbers and information which does your blog the justice it deserves. It really is quite simple; the larger the traffic information you disclose to a brand/PR, the larger the expected engagement and delivery is from any campaign you work with them on.
Lets first look at the accepted marketing terminology for the figures you are most likely to be asked to disclose when working on a project:
- Visits – The number of times your site/blog is visited overall by your community over a period of time, typically and expectedly one month.
- Pageviews – The number of pages that are opened from your site/blog over a period of time, typically and expectedly one month.
- Unique Users or Unique Numbers – The number of times individual people visit your blog (measured by their IP address) over a period of time, typically and expectedly one month.
The accepted method to use is Google Analytics (as this is what most brands/PRs use to do their own numbers) if it is compatible with your site. The easiest way to remember the above is; if a person visits your site on 2 different occasions over a month and views 3 pages, it would be = 2 visits, 3 page impressions and 1 unique visitor. If you have never used Google Analytics before, here is our simple guide to get you started.
The monthly time period to calculate your figures is what all brands, PRs and agencies will have expected you to have used when giving them any information. More recently some bloggers have been using another program called Statcounter which shortens the time period used to calculate pageviews and unique users to one day, potentially inflating blogger's traffic by 31x (as if a person visits your blog every day it would currently be 1 unique user, whereas Statcounter measures it as 31 – for every day in that month). As much as this may sound like a winning ticket to an instant lift in your traffic (the phrase "if it looks too good to be true, it probably is" comes to mind) consider what this means:
As I said, if you raise your traffic by "x" number of times, you raise the expectation on delivery by "x" amount. If your blog does not deliver the expected amount of results (more on that below), you will either have appeared to have given false number, or your blog will be considered to have under delivered – reducing the chances that the same brand or PR (if a PR, consider the number of clients they have and how that could affect all of those relationships) will work with you again.
In terms of expectation, here are the kind of things brands/PRs are looking for when you work with them (and will have calculated together a target, based on the numbers you have given them):
- Revenue – If the project you are working on links to an eCommerce website (site with purchasing capabilities) they will have calculated an expected number of transactions working with you will deliver.
- Traffic – A calculated prediction of click through rates (number of times somebody clicks through to a brand's webpage from your blog) will have been made using your site's statistics. Some brands/PRs may ask you to insert a UTM code ("urchin traffic monitor" – a simple way to monitor specific incoming traffic for a particular campaign, you can create your own here) into the links to ensure no errors are made
- Sign Ups or Data – Put simply, the number of new customers the brand are expecting to visit their site and sign up to their website. It is sometimes called "data" as each customer is effectively an insight into the demographic, location and personality of people attracted to their website.
If you fail to hit these targets there could be a number of legitimate reasons (for example, perhaps the content they asked you to write wasn't engaging enough – we can talk about how to encourage strong click through rates using "allusive editorial" another time) but the immediate conclusion is that your traffic was not what you said it was. And there is a strong argument to say that if you use anything other than Google Analytics, that could well be the case.
So please, have a little think about the way you are choosing to explain/detail your traffic – don't let yourself down. Building traffic and a following takes time, but rest assured the pride and satisfaction will be much greater if you know you went about it in a legitimate way.

This article was originally posted by Ryan at the original HillRunner.com Blogs.
I have a feeling this is going to get long so I'll break it into sections.
For those of you who aren't aware, one of my proudest personal accomplishments as a runner is my streak of consecutive years with a sub-17 minute 5K. It may seem monumental for some to run a single sub-17 5K, while for others such a run is barely a workout. For me, it took a lot of work to get under 17 minutes in the first place and it takes a lot of work to stay there.
How much work did it take to get there? Well, I graduated high school with a 17:06 PR. Anyone who knew me in high school could tell you how hard I worked for that 17:06. It wasn't until indoor track during my freshman year of college, 1996, that I finally broke through the 17 minute barrier. Every year since, through continued hard work and surely some luck I've gone under 17 minutes at least once.
This year, I wanted more than anything to continue that streak. To be able to say that I've gone under 17 minutes every year for two decades meant a lot to me. I've never been a superstar but one thing I've always taken pride in is my consistency. Sure, I have bad races but I bounce back and, year after year, I'm always there. When you don't get hurt, you are always willing to work both hard and smart, and you are willing to lay it all on the line on race day, that's the result.
Leading up to race day
So it's with that background that I entered today's race. I had a shaky spring racing season. In the fall season, I was fighting some lower right leg problems that I believe can be traced back to my perpetually tight hamstring. Through that, though, I fought through my races and had a high before today at the Hootie Hustle 5K, winning with a 17:15 on a course that seems to be both challenging and relatively fast. At Hootie Hustle, though, I felt like I left something on the course. I was in a relatively close race and didn't want to leave myself hung out to dry in the last half mile so I saved something. That wouldn't be a problem today.
In the past couple of weeks, I felt like I had done some solid work since my semi-disappointing run at Al's Run. I felt like I was coming in fit and the taper was working perfectly. In fact, even the lower leg problems were disappearing. In the two days immediately preceding the race, I even found myself saying I felt better than I have for months. I felt ready to roll. After yesterday's run, I told myself I felt like I could have run a 16:45 5K (remember that).
Race day
This morning, I got up and checked the weather. At 6:30, it was 24 degrees at the nearest weather station to the race course. The race was 10:00. I knew it would warm up but I also didn't want to take anything for granted so I threw some extra gear in my bag just in case and the family packed up and we headed out to the race.
As we arrived, a parking space right next to the finish line was available. I grabbed it and had myself parked with my front bumper virtually even with the finish line. With the course for many years starting at the finish line, this was perfect.
We went inside and I relaxed until warmup time. I went out for my usual warmup, initially keeping the pace very relaxed before opening up a few times after a very slow opening mile. Much like yesterday's run, I didn't feel the greatest when running slowly but I felt invincible when I picked up the pace. Sounds fine to me. As long as I feel good at a fast pace, that's all that matters.
After some strides, the walkers started going past to get lined up. As I was waiting for the crowd to clear so I could line up in front, one of the runners I see every year at this race came over and asked me about the new course. Huh? New course? Oh, shoot. Maybe I should have hung around to listen to the pre-race instructions. So I went over to one of the organizers and got the scoop. There's a new rec trail, which I happened to notice while warming up, and for safety reasons they are moving the course to there.
One problem, the rec trail is a crushed limestone trail. Anyone who is familiar with crushed limestone trails, especially newly established ones, should know this means some loose gravel on the trail. Not bad footing but there is definitely some slippage every step and you lose just a bit from your toe-off on every step. Combined with the fact that this was a new course, not the one I've run 14 times before and had the utmost comfort and familiarity with, this shook my confidence just a bit. Then I reminded myself. 20 years. I'm not letting that go without a fight. So I lined up with that in mind.
The race
The air horn sounds and I'm off. Straight into the lead as usual and running hard from the gun. I quickly settle into an aggressive but not insane pace. I feel calm and relaxed but I know I'm holding a very solid pace. I follow the trail around some baseball fields, then out of the park and onto an old railroad bed. Up a quick, steep rise to the highway, then across with the assistance of a police officer as traffic control. I did notice that an SUV did not want to stop when the police officer stopped it but, as it was inching forward to make the cross, the officer stepped right in front of it and put his hand on its hood. That stopped it and I crossed without incident. There was a bike going across the far sidewalk and we looked like we were on a crash course but I didn't break stride or adjust my path. Fortunately, the bike stopped very quickly right before we met and the guy on the bike cheered me on "Go number 34!" I cruise down the other side of the highway and I'm on the way to the mile mark.
There was someone there calling times but I couldn't quite hear what he said. 5:24? 5:34? I thought it was 5:34. A little slow and I felt like I just ran a fairly fast mile. Not good but I'm not giving up this streak without a fight. I push harder, harder, out to the turnaround. This, fortunately, was not a hard turnaround. We come out to a road, take a left, then take another left on a spur from the trail before merging back in with the trail. Not as good as the old course with no turnaround but not nearly as bad as it could have been.
Now, I'm on my way back and I can see I have a good lead as usual but not quite as big as usual. That's fine, though. I know what I'm here for. Keep pushing with all I have. I see more of the runners go by, then I come up on the 1 mile mark. The guy gives me my split as I go by there, 10:20. At that point, I tell myself I'm going to go out on a limb and assume that's not 2 miles. A little later, I see someone calling out "2 mile" and she gives me a split of 11:30. I instantly assume that the 2 mile was somewhere between 10:20 and 11:30 but likely not quite either one of those. Quickly after, I'm up the incline, across the highway and down the other side. I know I either have 5 minutes or less to go at this point or I don't really care so I'm pushing with all I have. Then I start coming across walkers. Most move over and give me plenty of room but a few must be staring at their feet and don't see me coming. I'm breathing so hard I can't even grunt so I'm just working my way through. Fortunately, with no serious problem.
As I turn back into the park with what I figure to be about 1/2 mile to go (it turns out it was just a hair over 1/2 mile so that was a good guess) I pour it on with everything I have. Around the baseball fields, past the start line and onto pavement. Once I hit the pavement, I kick with whatever I have. Not sure if I got faster but the effort level definitely reached 100% there.
I couldn't see the clock until I was almost at the finish line but, when I did, I saw it clicking through the 16:40s. As I crossed, it was at 16:45.
So that's what it was. 1st in 16:45. Just what I figured I was ready for. I didn't let the course change beat me, I overcame the lower leg problems and I extended the streak to 20 years.
Needless to say, I'm thrilled with this race. 20 years means a lot to me. I'm so proud to say I've run a sub-17 5K every year for two decades (and counting). This means a lot to me and I look forward to extending it next year.
That said, I'm done. Physically and mentally, I'm ready for the 2015 racing season to be over. Time to take a break, then focus on 2016 with the goal of my 21st consecutive year with a sub-17.

Harris County cites Harvey in appraisal delays
Usually by now, homeowners in Harris County have either come to terms with their new property appraisals or are in the process of fighting the taxing district for a lower value.
Yet owners of some 175,000 residential properties, about half of them in areas that experienced flooding during Hurricane Harvey, are still waiting to find out if their property values went up or down this year.
So while Tuesday was the deadline to file a protest with the Harris County Appraisal District, these owners remain in limbo, their properties still listed on the district website as "pending." Appraisers cite the increased difficulty of determining values in the wake of last August's tropical devastation, which flooded tens of thousands of homes.
"Harvey has kind of tripled the workload," HCAD spokesman Jack Barnett said Tuesday.
Property owners should receive their updated values for 2018 within the next month, Barnett said. They will still have 30 days to file a protest, he said.
HCAD is charged with valuing billions of dollars worth of properties each year, and those values determine how much a homeowner pays in property taxes. By spring, officials have typically released maps showing how those values rose or fell.
But since Harvey, appraisers have had to make multiple visits to inundated neighborhoods to try to get a clear picture of property values, Barnett said. They've had to consider a growing number of variables.
The district estimates that about half of the properties awaiting valuations are in areas that had flooding during Harvey. Perhaps half of those may have been damaged.
The district on Tuesday could not definitely say where the properties still awaiting valuation are located.
The delays are causing some frustration.
"We've had a lot of concern from people who haven't received their value notice and don't know what to do," said Patrick O'Connor of property tax consultant O'Connor & Associates.
HCAD assesses more than 1.8 million parcels each year with a total market value of about $575 billion. Of those parcels, 1.2 million are residential and include single-family homes, condominiums, mobile homes and even vacant lots.
Texas law requires that property be appraised according to its condition and market value on Jan. 1.
The actual amount of taxes due is determined by the tax rate set in the fall by each different jurisdiction, including the county, city, school district or municipal utility district.
Barnett said determining values on damaged properties has been complex and time consuming.
"We don't go into homes, so a lot of times if the owner is around we can talk to the owner about what the condition is at the beginning of the year. Maybe there's a wall or windows that are open because construction is going on and we can determine what the condition is at that point, but it's challenging," he said.
Nearby property sales also help determine values.
"We look at what houses sold for and what people are willing to pay," he said.
Next year, some homeowners who flooded and made major improvements to their homes may see significant increases.
That's because the tax code says improved properties can be considered to be new construction if the owner added onto the house, increasing its square footage, or if the exterior "is of higher quality construction and composition" than prior to the damage.
Normally, there's a 10 percent annual cap on value increases.
"If it's considered new construction, it breaks their 10 percent cap," Barnett said. "It would immediately go to that new market value."
O'Connor said some owners who repaired their homes after they were damaged during Harvey have been surprised to see their values unchanged from last year.
"If your house flooded and has been repaired doesn't meant the value hasn't changed," he said.

In my continued attempt to make use of those snippets from the archives that didn't make it into the finished thesis, here's something you might not think about as a non-proliferation measure: the Special Air Service (SAS).
Previously, I've talked about angry letters from A. Q. Khan and the intersections between Barry Goldwater, the military-industrial complex, and the Ford administration. This time, it's back to the UK and a non-proliferation 'bribe' that never went anywhere other than the Foreign Office filing cabinet marked 'Daft Ideas.'
During the 1970s, the United States and the United Kingdom wrestled with the idea of selling advanced combat aircraft to Pakistan in order to move Bhutto and then Zia away from the nuclear path. The US was always more committed to this form of bribery, although that commitment waxed and waned according to the administration in power, the Congressional climate, and a variety of other conflicting factors.
For the UK, supplying combat aircraft to Pakistan was never a serious prospect and existed more as a way of justifying the sale of the Jaguar strike aircraft to India, a sale that was causing no little damage to non-proliferation efforts on the sub-continent. The damage was caused by the perception – if not the reality – that Britain was willing to sell a nuclear-capable strike aircraft to the nation that caused Islamabad the most concern.
During 1978 – and parallel to the Jaguars-for-India debate – there were other discussions on-going regarding other ways to reassure the Pakistanis about their security situation and hence lessen the chances of them pursuing nuclear capability. One that was briefly debated by British diplomats but was disregarded by senior figures such as Foreign Secretary David Owen was the potential dispatch of SAS troops to Pakistan to serve as "advisors" on counter-terrorism and Afghan-Pakistani cross-border incursion issues.
Such a force would, it was suggested, "impress a soldier like Zia" and form part of a wider "helpful and friendly" attitude towards Pakistan.[1] Such a simplistic, condescending proposal never gained traction, mainly due to concerns over on-the-ground military cooperation with regimes – such as Pakistan – with questionable human rights records.[2]
The justification for not sending the SAS to Pakistan is interesting: human rights. Human rights were a major focus of the Carter administration and, while Whitehall was mired in a spat with Washington and Islamabad over the Indian Jaguar contract, using this as an 'out' provided a handy justification and implied that the UK supported Carter's stance.
Yet, the initial reasons suggested for dispatching special forces to Pakistan are bound up in a range of problematic attitudes. Foremost amongst these is the notion that sending in a few elite military personal would impress Zia. While the SAS are undoubtedly an impressive fighting force, the somewhat paternalistic attitude towards Zia smacks of long-held notions regarding the primitiveness and violence of developing world peoples.
The binning of the SAS plan at a very early stage is perhaps unsurprising. But it does provide an interesting glimpse into the many and varied ways in politicians and civil servants attempted to wrangle some form of non-proliferation success out of the mire that was the triangular US-UK-Pakistan relationship.

HBCU football legends Doug Williams and James "Shack" Harris co-founded the Black College Football Hall of Fame to honor phenomenal student-athletes.
They were among the HBCU (Historically Black Colleges and Universities) football stars at the 10th annual Black College Football Hall of Fame induction ceremony on Feb. 16 in Atlanta.
"We see a lot of faces and that's a good thing," Williams said. "They keep coming so I think the event must be something that piques their interest and something that's needed."
The 2019 Black College Football Hall of Fame (BCFHOF) induction class includes Emerson Boozer (University of Maryland Eastern Shore), Hugh Douglas (Central State University), Rich "Tombstone" Jackson (Southern University), Frank Lewis (Grambling State), Timmy Newsome (Winston-Salem State), John Taylor (Delaware State), and Coach Arnett "Ace" Mumford from Southern University, Texas College, Jarvis Christian College, and Bishop College.
"I don't really feel like I deserve being here with so many great ball-players that came before me. So many great players in this Hall of Fame and I really appreciate them even considering me," Jackson related.
Grambling standouts
Williams noted that he's "glad that we are here for the 10th year and I hope that we can continue doing what we do.''
The standout player for Coach Eddie Robinson at Grambling State became the first African-American quarterback in the National Football League to start and win Super Bowl XXII. The Washington Redskins defeated the Denver Broncos 42-10.
Harris also played quarterback for Grambling State. In 1969, he became the first Black quarterback to start a season in the NFL with the Buffalo Bills. In 1974, Harris earned Pro Bowl MVP honors.
Black College Football Hall of Fame inductees
Salute to Davis
Art Shell made history in 1994 as the second African-American head coach in the NFL with the Los Angeles Raiders.
"I can't say enough about Al Davis. He showed the league Blacks can become head coaches so others came along," Shell said, referring to the former Los Angeles and Oakland Raiders football coach, general manager and owner.
Shell played for Maryland State now known as the University of Maryland Eastern Shore. Shell was inducted into the 2011 BCFHOF Class.
"I was a freshman when he [Emerson Boozer] was playing his senior year and to see him get in this Hall of Fame is just a great feeling for me," Shell noted.
"I enjoy coming back every year and I try to tell all of the guys in the Hall of Fame
Special event
Terry LeCount grew up in Jacksonville as a star quarterback at Raines High School. He led the Vikings to the Florida Class 4A state championship game in 1973. His family members attended HBCUs in the 1960s and 1970s and he always admired Black college football. He made history in Gainesville.
"I attended the University of Florida when they didn't have any African Americans as a Black quarterback so I feel pretty special about that," LeCount said.
He works for the Black College Football Hall of Fame and always looks forward to the induction ceremony.
"I was telling my employees earlier that this is personally the biggest event of all in my eyesight," LeCount said. "I love when they have it. I hope they never leave."

This service is also known as a full or major service & is generally carried out once a year or in rotation with an Interim service.
Will this service affect my warranty? NO Government legislation passed in 2003 known as "block exemption" means that an independent garage can now carry out your servicing/repairs & the warranty is still protected.
Low Mileage
Our services are so detailed that in some circumstances i.e. "low mileage users" it is possible to have 2 interim services in a row instead of a major - stretching the major service interval, reducing costs to you.
Oil and Filter
Regular oil changes are one of the simplest, yet most important ways to keep your vehicle running smoother, longer. As the lifeblood of an engine, oil lubricates vital components, reducing friction to help engines run cooler and suspends dirt particles to keep your engine clean. We'll let you know when to change oil for the type of driving you do and what type of oil is right for your car.
To avoid costly repairs or disastrous brake failure, it's wise to have your brakes checked once a year by a qualified technician.

Your vehicle's engine light is part of an intricate monitoring system and it could come on for a variety of reasons. We have the latest diagnostic equipment that lets us pinpoint the problem and get you on your way again.
Heating and Cooling
Driving produces an enormous amount of heat - enough to cause serious damage to your engine. That's why a properly maintained cooling system is so essential to prevent your engine from overheating or, even worse, seizing up. We inspect your cooling system to spot potential problems before they start.
Steering & Suspension
Suspension wears out gradually and you may not notice any problems until the system fails. So, it's important to have your suspension system checked periodically to ensure your driving comfort and safety. From shock absorbers to strut replacement you can count on our technicians to provide the best solution to suit your driving needs and budget.
Transmission problems can be caused by low fluid levels, poor fluid consistency, or by debris in the system and a transmission is one of the most costly components to repair or replace. We can show how to you detect transmission problems early on so we can correct any minor problem before it causes costly damage.
Batteries and Electrical
Did you know that summer heat greatly reduces battery life? You may not notice until winter when your battery is called upon to deliver more power to start the engine. Come into us for a 7-point battery inspection before your battery leaves you out in the cold.
Remember, our 24hr emergency number is manned 24hrs a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year.
